Hey there all my many fans! It's now time for another of my world-famous "Shark Tale" Fanfictions, and this time the story is longer than just one chapter, yaaaaaaaaaaaay! Okay listen up, Don Lino and Lenny are overworked and they decide to go on a vacation, and they take Oscar and Angie. But little do they know that an old member of Lino's mob is spying on them and is secretly plotting revenge. Enjoy!

Working Vacation

Chapter 1

Don Lino had had one heck of a long day at work. Today's meeting had simply driven him insane! It had lasted from ten in the morning to ten at night because Lino was barely able to say what he needed to say. But did the fact that every member of his mob was more interested in hearing that Giuseppe was now a dad than in listening to what he couldn't wait 'til tomorrow to tell them bother him? NO! In fact, all the mindless chatter was actually a nice distraction from Luca the mentally challenged octopus yammering pointlessly to him about pianos!

Lino sighed sadly as he sat down in his soft chair. He just couldn't put up with his own employees showing up to the most important meeting of the year just to talk among themselves as if they were High School students! As for Luca, Lino would rather have been beaten senselessly and strapped to an electric chair than listen to his so-called right hand man talking nonstop about the fact that he could play every song from "The Phantomfish of the Opera" on piano!

Lino was so exhausted that it took him almost thirty seconds of staring at the clock to realize Lenny was almost four hours late from work. That was a first; Lenny always came home at seven on the dot. Lino reached over to his phone to call Lenny on his cell when his office door suddenly swung open.

"Hi, Pop," said a very weary looking Lenny.

"Lenny?" Lino was too tired to be angry. "Where've you been? You're four hours late."

"I know, sorry Pop. The Whale Wash was packed! There were so many customers that we couldn't even take a lunch break."

"Really?"

"Yes! And let me tell ya something else!" Lenny rose up his fins, even though he was too weak to. "These fins have touched whale tongues!"

"So?" Lino asked.

"At least forty-five whale tongues! Forty-five dirty, slime-covered whale tongues! One of them was so gross that I had to clean it four times!"

"Wow," Lino said as Lenny sat down on a bar stool. "Looks like we both had a lousy day."

"What do ya mean, Pop?"

Lino inhaled as deeply as he could.

"Well, let me tell you about my day, Son," he started. "Today was supposed to be the most important meeting possibly in my whole life. Yesterday I specifically told everyone to show up and listen, but all they did was show up!"

"Did they even hear anything you said?" Lenny asked.

"I don't think anyone even knew I was in the room, except for Luca," Lino replied.

"Well what were they doing that whole time?"

"They just sat around and congratulated Giuseppe 'cause his wife gave birth to her new pup last week."

Lenny was a little surprised.

"Well, why didn't you congratulate him Pop? I mean didn't you want everyone to notice you when you became a parent?"

Lino laughed. "Yes I did, and I tried to congratulate him but he barely even noticed I was there."

They both sighed. Clearly both of them were having the worst day of their lives because of their jobs and all the people they had to work with. Neither of them could deny it any longer, they needed to take a few days off.

"Pop," Lenny said, "We need a vacation."

Lino nodded. "You're right, Lenny. Where do ya think we should go?"

"I don't know, but as long as it's away from the Whale Wash then I'm there."

"Well as long as Luca doesn't come with us, then I'm there too," Lino agreed.

"I wanna go somewhere that's sunny," Lenny said.

"Somewhere where you can sleep as long as ya want." said Lino.

"Somewhere with great food."

"Somewhere with "Do Not Disturb" signs on the doors."

For a few minutes, they remained silent trying to think of where they should go for their vacation. Then they both thought of the perfect place.

"The North Side Reef!" They both said at the exact same time.

"Great idea, Son," Lino said.

"How long should we stay?" Lenny asked.

"As long as we need the relaxation. Maybe about…two weeks?" Lino suggested.

"Sounds good to me."

"Great. But before we start making plans," Lino yawned, "I need to sleep."

"Me too," Lenny agreed.

They both left Lino's office, said goodnight to each other and went to bed. They could hardly wait; two whole weeks with no disgusting whale tongues, no distracted employees, and best of all, no Luca.

End of Chapter 1. I'll upload the rest as soon as I can.
