Chapter.1

It had been a hard mornings training and skipper thought it would be a good idea to give his team the afternoon to themselves to relax and enjoy the hot summers day. Kowalski retired to his lab to work on his experiments, Rico took the car for a drive and Private went over to Marlenes.

Skipper went for a walk around the zoo nowhere in particular just enjoying the piece and quiet and making the most of the beautiful day, he took a deep breath "nothing like a nice walk on a day like today" he said to no one in particular. he stopped as he heard wheels coming his way, so he ducked around the corner in order not to be seen. It was Alice in a zoo cart. Skipper watched carefully to see what she was upto as she pulled up outside the storage room, Alice must have been on cleaning duty as Skipper noticed a box with all the cleaning products in the back. He watched as Alice tried to lift an overloaded box and carry them back. What Skipper didn't see was the bottle of liquid that fell on the floor and started leaking all over the place.

Skipper had seen enough and was about to walk away when he felt a cold chill go up his spine,he shivered for a second and thought that he had just imagined it so he put it to one side and carried on. Skipper thought to go and see Marlene and private so he made his way to Marlenes habitat. He wondered how Kowalski, Private and Rico are.

Kowalski in the lab

Kowalski was about to lose his patience as his latest invention was refusing to work he screamed "work you stupid contraption!"he said "WORK!"he continued shouting at the top of his lungs. this is going to be a long day.

Rico

Rico had a devilish smile on his face as he was speeding all over the park "WOOO HOOO!" he shouted waving a flipper in the air.

Private and Marlene

Private and Marlene were sat at the table enjoying a nice quiet game of cards, Private had a grin on his face until Marlene put her card down "oh your to good at this game Marlene" Private whined. Marlene just smiled "I know" she said.

back to skipper

Skipper passed the lemur habitat and felt sommething hit his head "OW" he whined as he was about to take a look at it another hit him, he picked one up and realised them to be fruit stones. he knew exactly where they were coming from and marched over to the lemurs he saw julien eating a bunch of fruit and spitting out the pits not caring where they land. Skipper decided he would deal with it later and carried on.

A few minutes later he reached Marlenes habitat and jumped over the barrier and walked in to Marlenes home "Anybody home" he shouted.

"In here Skipper" came the reply he all of a sudden he felt a very strange feeling as if he knew something was going to happen, he felt that icy feeling up his spine again. He walked into the habitat to see Private and Marlene still playing cards they noticed he looked a bit pale . "Are you alright skipper" Private asked "fine" he replied with a forced smile on his face.
