His best friend had the appearance of a thin boy swarthy and with a hair striped like a zebra, had a black shirt and vest and white pants with black stripes, his shoe was black with white and with green eyes and his name was Marty, the girl in the group,her skin was a little clearest than Marty, your hair is big and black with, brown eyes, dark purple blouse and pants and black shoes and she is a little obese her name was Gloria, lastly was a boy loudly, with blonde hair, green eyes and wore glasses, a shirt big yellow with a necktie with brown spots like a giraffe, his pants were yellow, and black shoes and had the name of Melman and all 4 had one thing special, his DNA it was half human, and, half animal.

They lived in the same apartment, but did they entertainment all the days, the people of New York believed they were a missing link, because they since they were born had this 'animal side',the 4 lived in a kind of prison, because they never could have fun, by the mornings be the entertainment of the people, in the afternoon study and night to get stuck inside the apartment with 10 guards at the door to not leave anyone exit.

But today is the anniversary of 15 years of Marty, everyone was getting ready to go to the zoo, Melman and Gloria were coming out of the apartment with the security guards.

Gloria question to Melman: "Melman, Alex still did not wake up?"

Melman said: "no, but you knows that Alex always wakes up late"

And Gloria says: "I just hope he not be late like of the last time"

Melman says: "I'm sure that this time he will not be late"

Gloria says looking at the clock: "oh my god, we will Melman, if not we'll be late!"

and the two, run towards the zoo and the bouncers,shout: "Hey!" and they run after them.

In how much this in room at Alex ...

Alex was dreaming of steak and suddenly the alarm burrow, and Alex scared, skips and holds the claws on the ceiling, but then back to the floor and see the hour and yells: "10 hours!, I'm delayed " And then he vesture a dark brown shirt with a drawing of African continete along with the brown vest, blue jeans and a brown shoe with yellow, then he opens the door with force and ends up breaking the door (he has the strength of a lion) and says: "sorry" but then runs into the kitchen and eat a raw steak, and Alex magpie a puppet of plush from himself curled in as a gift and grabs the bicycle and walks to the zoo.

At the zoo early in the afternoon ...

All were at the zoo, less Alex, security guards were also in the zoo, Marty ask already worried: "where's Alex?",

Gloria says: "I told you so, he was late again", but then suddenly Alex appears and tells almost breathless: "sorry...by the delay, I had a small problem with the security guards of our building"

, Melman says: "well, now that Alex has arrived we started the birthday" and everyone sings: "congratulations to thou, of our zoo and documents from gorilla and smell of monkey man", and the two mutant half-human and half, monkey said:" that lack of education! "

Marty says: "arrives, you guys are embarrassing me and are embarrassing yourselves" and Alex says:'' who are you talking about, we trained this song all week, I mean these bouncers did not help much, "says Gloria taking the cake: "let's, make a wish, sweet" and Marty ,erases the sails and Alex asks, "then what you wished? " and, Marty replies: "I can not talk" and Alex says: "please,"

Marty says: "no, if you do not want to have bad luck I will not tell, now if you want to have bad luck .. "and Gloria says:" for the love of god Marty, in the good that can happen? "and, Marty says:'' okay, I wanted... might go... to nature, "and Alex says fall backwards:" to nature oh! "Melman gets choked up and Marty says:" I did not say it was bad luck "

Alex says: "to nature?, this is the worst idea I've ever heard,"and Melman spits the tongue-of-mother in law and says,with coughing: "it is definitive anti-hygienic" and Marty ,question: "the mutants, half human and half penguin are going , why can not I? "and Alex says: "these mutants are psychotics" and Marty says:"we just imagine going back to nature, fresh air, open space, a place where mutants are not used as entertainment for humans, where mutants can live in peace"

and Glora says: "I heard that have open space in Connecticut, and Marty, not there is a place for mutants, only because we have special powers, humans think that we do not have feelings,and that merely,of us are freaks of nature"

Marty asks: "Connecticut?", And Melman says, "you have to go to Grand Central, then catch the Metro North train to the North?"and Marty asks: "just get the train?, hypothetically " and Alex question, starting the get angry: "Marty, what Connecticut has to offer!"and Melman replies: "mad cow disease and freedom" and Alex says ,being sarcastic: "Thank you, Melman" and Marty says: "no, seriously, I just I wanted ..."and Alex says picking up the steak: " is seeing this? , this is a highly refined food that not found in nature, and if you take the mad cow disease,you dies crazy! "

and Marty asks: "you stopped to think that life can be more than eating steak Alex?, and what the problem is in dying crazy?" and Alex tells to the steak: "he did not mean this darling" and Marty asks, "but you guys are not bothered in not knowing what life is like away from this city full of cruelty? , and Alex, you're pretending that this steak is a girl because you never had a girlfriend in your life! "

and Alex gets embarrassed and says: "what's the problem if I never had a girlfriend, and also no girl likes me because I'm half human and half lion" and then everyone talks: "no" and Alex says: "Look, we're just having a conversation and you is all dirty in your face "and Marty makes a sad look, clean the face and says:" thank you, galley, thanks for the feast, seriously "and everyone returns to the apartment, and Marty goes toward the machine racing and Melman question: "What is bothering him?"

and Gloria says: "Alex, you should talk to him, go there give some advice" and Alex says: "I've given a plush doll, I can not do better than that" and Gloria says: "Alex", Melman says: "I already know where this will end, it's getting late, I think I'll ..."and Melman fall asleep on the living room floor, Gloria and Alex speak for signs and then Gloria says, "he is your best friend '

Alex says: "okay, I'll talk to him" and Gloria says, climbing the ladder, "good night, Marty" and he replies: "Good evening, Gloria" but Alex is caught off guard when Gloria throws a bucket cold water on it but luckily Alex uses an umbrella, and then Gloria goes to his room (a curiosity Gloria has a giant aquarium in room), Alex thinks for a moment and says, looking out the window "that day, serious, nothing can be better than that, you know, yes can, the stars appeared, you will not find a star like so in nature "and Marty says:" helicopter ",

Alex says:" Marty, friend, we all think the grass the neighbor is greener, understand, I too do not want to be called aberration but this is an impossible dream "and Marty says:" Alex, look at me, I'm 15 years, I am teenager, and I'm dreaming of one day live in peace without being called of strange, and yet half of me is a zebra and not know if I'm white with black stripes or black with white stripes "

and Marty sits next to Alex, and Alex says with a smile: "Marty, I'm thinking of a song" and Marty says: "Alex please not now" and Alex says "yes, it's a wonderful song I think you know "and Alex starts singing and Marty says" no, stop it!, I'm not listening "and Alex sings:" can spread the news, "Marty says:" I do not know you, "Alex continues:" I'm leaving today, we are the best there is here, "and Marty says:" it's funny, who is? "and Alex says: "come on, you know the lyrics, two little words" and Marty says: "New York", and then the two, sing: "New York", and a neighbor shouts "shut your mouth, I'm sleeping!, not all are aberrations who do not sleep at night! "

and Marty says: "I'll break you whole, heard idiot!" and another neighbor yells: "You and who else, the boy zebra!" and Alex yells: "if disturb he, will carry a beating from me, Howard!" Alex says: " heard his human grumpy with zebra stripes, are a perfect match, you and I"

, and Marty says; "surely no doubt, "Alex then asks," what will you do?, escape to nature all alone? "and Marty replies "no," Alex says, "great", Marty ends: "you and me", says Alex shocked: "what?" Marty says: "we, us together, Grand Central is at the end fifth Avenue, we'll take a train heading north, back in the morning and nobody will ever know "

Alex question laughing: "are you kidding, right?" and Marty responds a little sad: "is, I am, of course I'm joking, talking seriously, as we'd grab a train?" Alex says relieved: "do not do that anymore, you scared me," says Marty yawning: "I think I'll to bed "and Alex says:" I also, have to reload my powers for tomorrow that is the day of the elderly, I have that roar like a lion, to give them a fright "after Alex goes upstairs and walks toward his room with no door and Marty lying down on the couch says: "good night, Alexinho"

, and when Alex comes in the enters room and try to sleep and suddenly hears the sound of the neighbor and says,'' the neighbor forgot of Disconnecting the radio again!, "says Marty and throwing an arrow on the radio:" okay, I'll handle this, "and then Alex says," better "and sleeps, and Marty, leaving speaks a ticket leaving the apartment:" sorry, friends, but I do not want to be a freak "and then goes away.
