True To Himself

A/N This is my first Penguins of Madagascar fic so don't be mean. My sister and I love the show so much. This is about Kai, King Julien's son but he doesn't want to be King and wants to be an normal lemur kid but then an new friend comes to the zoo and helps him feel confident enough. I hope people like.

It was an normal day at the Central Park Zoo but somebody was not happy.

Kai was a lemur but also King Julien's son. He loved his father but sometimes got on his nerves. He was fourteen but unlike his father was thoughtful, kind, good hearted and had a mind of his own unlike Julien.

He sighed as he saw his father sneak into the penguin's base.

"He's so dead." he muttered as Maurice agreed with the lemur teen. Kai had been brought to Central Park Zoo when he was a baby and had been orphaned and on that day, Julien had decided that Kai should be his son.

But the other animals liked Kai but Maurice heard Kai chuckle seeing Skipper and the other penguins chase after his father.

"Kai let's go.

We have more royal training to do if you're to be my heir and take the throne." Julien said annoyed.

"Umm...... Julien maybe he wants to hang out with the others.

He can't always be training." Maurice said as Julien had a sad look on his face.

"Fine Dad.

Just for a little while." he said leaving with Julien.

Marlene felt sorry for Kai because normally Julien was the annoyance to all the animals in the zoo but at least Maurice kept him under control but now he had been bugging Kai with all this royalty stuff, it made the kid sad being around his father.

"It's okay.

He'll probably be back later helping us." Skipper reassured her.

Later Kai was by himself thinking but then Mort showed up breaking his train of thought. To him, Mort was like an annoying little brother or one of those dogs humans had that never stopped yapping.

"Wanna play Kai huh?" the small lemur asked him as Kai shot a foam ball from his Nerf gun at him.

"That shut him up as it usually does.

I don't see why he sucks up to Dad for.

He never cares or notices the little doofus anyway.

I wonder what Skipper and the others are doing?

Probably something awesome and cool." the teenage lemur thought as he snuck away from his father.........

Skipper smiled seeing Kai enter their lair but saw anger in his eyes.

Like him, Skipper harboured anger at Julien for bugging them and taking their stuff claiming he was borrowing them.

"You okay kid?

You look really mad." Skipper said.

"It's just my Dad.

Royalty this and King that.

There's more to life than that stuff." Kai answered imitating Julien.

Marlene cracked up at that as they went to get popcorn but in Alice's office, Kai noticed something. It was a huge box.

"H-Hello?

Is anybody out there?" something said from within it.

Skipper understood the kid's curiousity and peeked through one of the air holes.

Kai heard him gasp.

"What is it?

Is it something dangerous?" Kai asked nervous but before he could answer, they heard Alice coming.

"Let's go." Private said as they left before the angry zoo keeper came in.

Skipper breathed a sigh of relief as they were back in the lair but Kai was curious.

But then Maurice showed up......
