Love is In The Air
Ch.1
Private was just enjoying his day off, watching televesion. He became very enthralled in the Action movies because they reminded him of early missions and sometimes of Skipper, which he always thought the main character was like. He would always pay close attention at the really action-y parts. He had hoped this would improve his combat and agility skills, for he had really wanted to impress Skipper today. The reason the young penguin wanted to impress Skipper is because on a mission about 2 days ago, everything went fine, until Private messed things up. He had jeopardised the entire mission and for that the rest of the team wouldn't speak or even look at him for the entire day yesterday. He had felt depressed and was willing to do anything so they would forget his screw-up.
He had hoped Skipper would talk to him today, he didnt want to see his best friend and authority figure completely disregard his existance. Actually, now that Private had thought about it, there was another reason he had so whole-heartidly given all of his attention and would feel heart-broken if he had ignored him for another day. Private feared that he might have a small crush on Skipper. He had noticed this about a week ago. It just hit him that he was so thankful for him being around. After all, if it weren't for him hed be a completely different person. And Private loved who he was! He loved his home and his friends around him. and it took him a while to realize it but part of him loved Skipper.
Speaking of Skipper, He had entered the lair. Private turned around, noticed the usual face and sported a grin across his face.
"'Ello, Skippah! Would you like to watch the tele?" No response. "Eh...Skippah?" Still nothing. He turned back around in his bean-bag chair, completely heart-broken. He had really screwed up this time, he thought. It seemed like Skipper hated him. And for what, a mission? Skipper had loved his job, but felt completely no emotion for Private, and it felt like a punch to the gut. And with that he began to silently cry into his pillow.
Skipper had noticed Private speaking, but didn't feel like talking. He still wasn't over the mission, so he tried to pretend not to notice. But he did notice that. He silently waddled over beside Private, who was burying his face in the bean-bag chair, sobbing his eyes out. This was the one image that Skipper couldnt bear to look at without shedding a tear of his own. "Come on, soldier. It isn't that bad is it?" This just made the young penguin sob even more."I didn't mean it like that, Pri-"
"Ohh, yes y-you did-d, s-skippah... I'm-m useless..."
He was cut off by the little Private. He would have slapped Kowalski or Rico if they inturrupted, even if they said something like that. especially if they said something like that. But not with Private, he just couldn't find it in himself to do it. But anyway, Skipper bent down and put a flipper on Private and said,"You look at me, soldier. you are NOT useless. You will NEVER be useless. Do you understand?" It was clear enough he did. Skipper didn't know why he even did this, but it was extremely unexpected for both penguins. Skipper embraced his flippers around Private and whispered into his ear, "You are the best Private in the world". As he stood up, he saw that the little penguin's face was Bursting with red, but he had a reassuring smile. Skipper chuckled, patted the soldier on the back, and went back up the ladder to the topside. As he got to the top, he noticed that the hatch door was open a crack. As he cautiosly opened it, he slowly saw talons grow to legs that grew to a body. Skipper found Rico staring down at him grinning from side to side. "You didn't..-" Skipper started, turning a bit red himself.
"Mmmhmm" was the penguins only reply, as he kept his sheepish grin. Skipper propped himself up and while walking past him he said, "You didn't see anything, comprende Rico?" Rico nodded, trying not to laugh at the memory of their "sweet" moment together. he cackled as he went down the hatch and into Kowalski's lab. Instead of relaxing on his day off, he was expirimenting with different chemicals. Rico choked out the word "help" from his stomach and looked at him with a pouty face when Kowalski looked over. One look at the face and he was put in a laughing fit. Koalski wouldnt stop laughing and squirmed around over the side of the table. he had enough force to knock the 2 vials off the table and on to the floor, where they shattered. when the 2 chemicals mixed it formed a gas that fumigated the entire room. Kowalski's laugh turned into a shocked gasp, and he was the first to take the scent in and immidiately he started coughing and gasping for air. Rico was quick to react and picked the choking penguin up and to the door. About halfway through the walk Rico inhaled the possiblyfatal gas. He tried to resist it, but soon he began to feel dizzy. When he managed to get a hold of the door he quickly opened it and dropped Kowalski beside him, where he himself passed out from the gas.
They weren't sure how long they were out, but when the came to they were greeted by the faces of their fellow teammates. They were relieved when they found out the gas hadn't killed them or caused any unusual side affects. Later that night, Kowalski had some testing on himself and Rico to see if there were any abnormal changes in their health. "Hmmm" Kowalski was deep in thought. Rico, who was beside him, began to notice something he didn't before about Kowalski. He had noticed he had a great body and he looked, well, down-right cute when he was thinking too hard. He didn't understand these emotions at all and quickly shook them away when Koawlski spoke up.
"Well, the only result in abnormal spiking in any of our DNA seems to be, uhh..oh, my. That can't be right." "What?" Rico burped out.
"It seems that the only abnormal spiking in our DNA is in our testosterone.."
