Alright, SkullShovel here. This might be a little too dark for some people, I can't tell you why though, mostly because it would ruin the plot. Here's the first chapter.


Chapter 1

Private, Rico and Kowalski were standing on the concrete iceberg waiting for Skipper. He was taking forever. "Kowalski?" Private asked, "Where do you think Skipper is?"

"Well...I have no clue. But I'm sure he'll turn up soon." Kowalski said. "He said he'll be in the HQ, maybe I should go down there and check on him." Private said. "Okay, you go do that." Kowalski said, as Private went inside the HQ. When he got inside, Skipper was nowhere to be seen.

"Skipper?" Private called out quietly. Although, he heard something in Kowalski's lab. He then walked in, it was nothing, just a computer. Kowalski must've left it on. Then he looked at it, it was marked "Skipper's Schedule" and the time that was on said, speak with Erik.

Private was confused. Why would Skipper want to speak with Erik? Skipper barely even speaks to him, and he barely knows much about him. The only penguin Erik would speak to was Rico, and that's it. Then Private, with full curiosity ran off to the Otter Habitat.

When he got there, he heard Skipper and Erik talking, but he couldn't make much of it. When he got in closer, he heard a familiar voice, "Excuse me?" Private looked behind him to find Marlene. "What are you doing here!?" Marlene asked raising her voice. This got Skipper and Erik's attention.

"Private, speak up." Skipper ordered. Private was nervous, he wondered why Skipper and Erik were talking and what were they talking about. "Well, I wanted to find you and I saw you talking to Erik. What were you two talking about by the way?" Private asked.

"NOTHING! We were talking about nothing." Skipper said defensively. Private knew he was lying, he knew he was being secretive. "Skipper? Are you sure because..." Private was then interrupted by Erik. "It was nothing! Now go back to the HQ!" Erik yelled.

This was the first time Private saw Erik this angry. He didn't want Erik to be furious so he just left it at that. "Okay, but Skipper, aren't you gonna train us?" Private asked. "No! Day off! Leave!" Skipper said. Private then nodded and left. Although, it was a little strange about their secretive attitude. What were they hiding?

Later at night, Private woke up and then began to worry about Skipper. Was there a reason why he was being suspicious. Along with Erik and Marlene. Was it something bad? Was Marlene getting transferred? Was Erik getting transferred? He had to know what was up. Private then hoped off his bunk only to find out that Skipper wasn't there.

Now he was too curious, he ran out of the HQ but when he got outside, he saw that King Julien was left unguarded. He was sleeping on his throne along with Maurice, Mort, Jeni, and Mia. Private wanted to wake one of them up but then saw a shadow head into Raymond's room.

He knew who it was, it was Skipper. He followed him and then when he did, he saw Erik, Marlene, and Max walk in too. Why would they want to be in Raymond's room?

Private then peaked into the room, he looked in and found them sitting or standing in random places of the room. Skipper was sitting at the chess table with Marlene, Max was leaning against the wall, Tanya was sitting on the bed, Erik was just hanging upside down, and Raymond was leaning near the drawers.

"Alright, everyone's here..." Skipper began. "Now let me go with the plan...in about a month or so, we're gonna end the human race." Skipper said. Private was shocked. He heard that from Skipper. Why would Skipper say something like that?

"Good...and finally." Marlene said.

"Yeah, the invention will probably be ready in about...three months...sadly." Max said.

"Well, take all the time you need...at least it's worth the wait for all these humans to die." Erik said.

"True, I mean why would we want this world to live with their filth?" Tanya asked.

"We wouldn't..." Raymond said, then he looked over to the door and walked over to it.

"What is it?" Skipper asked. "We're being watched..." Then with that, Raymond opened the door and Private fell in. "Private..." Skipper said. Private looked at his leader. All this time they were taking orders from a misanthropic penguin. He felt depressed, he felt betrayed.


Well that's the first chapter, short I know. And like I said, if you do not like this idea, don't put any flames please. I'd apreciate it if you'd review also.
