After Return of the Revenge of Doctor Blowhole

Skipper, Kowalski, Rico and Private were walking home, after making arrangements for Blowhole to be transported to Hoboken to lead a new less revenge & hatred filled life there. The team of four did not have any transport so they trudged along the streets of New York in the general direction of their zoo. Kowalski and Rico took the lead as they were faster than Skipper (who was extremely exhausted and was being accompanied by Private). The four of them were mostly silent during their journey. They weren't morning people, all the more they found it hard to stay awake.

"Skipper…" The youngest began,

"Yeah?"

"We really thought you weren't going to find your way home when we heard Blowhole say that…" He slowly, cautiously spoke.

"Why?"

"He seemed so convinced…" Private whispered, "It was really creepy. He was right there, in our HQ, telling us that you won't come back."

"He's a liar, you know it. I won't leave you alone here, would I?" Skipper asked, trying to assure his young comrade.

"Yeah… I guess I shouldn't be worried about it too much." Private went back to his own thoughts.

The two trudged along, having lost sight of the other pair long ago.

"Do you know how much you mean to us?" Private started again.

"...how much?"

"You're like the world to us."

"What have I done to deserve that?"

"Mm… for starters, you've been a great team leader."

"Oh…" Skipper was surprised by that.

"It would be such a shame if we lost you." Private admitted.

"That's nice." Skipper admitted slowly.

Private looked surprised. "So no one has complimented your leadership before?"

"Almost no one."

Private reached out and hugged Skipper. Skipper looked startled at first, but he eased and accepted the hug anyway.

Private looked at Skipper who was smiling. He smiled back too. "You should be proud of yourself, Skipper."

"You're a good soldier too. Thanks, I needed that." Skipper acknowledged.

Private giggled. "We wouldn't be here without you."

Skipper smiled, finally truly realizing that he had such a good team. "We better go before someone catches us in the streets instead of the zoo Private."

"Sure. I just forgot how much mushy feelings you can actually take." Private teased. This wasn't a team feel time anymore, it was family bonding time, if not Private wouldn't have teased Skipper in such a way.

"You know you would have to pay back for that comment later right?" Skipper stated, "once I regain my strength of course."

Private chuckled, "I'm sure it won't be that bad," making Skipper laugh along to.

The two brothers returned home in a much happier, light-hearted mood.

The end~
