Disclaimer: I do not own Penguins of Madagascar.
The late afternoon sun burned over the Central Park Zoo as the day continued to wane. It was a sunday and the zoo was closed so there were no visitors at the zoo today. The scene switches to the inside of the penguins HQ as the penguins went around doing their usual things. Skipper was drinking from his coffee cup, Kowalski was working on another experiment, Rico was brushing his doll girlfriends hair and humming a love song at the same time, and Private was sitting at the T.V. and he was watching the Lunacorns.
While the penguins were doing their usual activities, the metal door in their HQ opened and in stepped Marlene and Dave. "Hey guys," Marlene greeted out to the penguins as Dave walked in behind her. "Hey Marlene," Skipper returned the greeting. Skippers gaze then fell on Dave and Skipper glared at him. "Dave," Skipper greeted Dave in an icy cold tone. Dave looked at Skipper and returned the icy glare. "Skipper," Dave returned with an icy cold tone of his own. The two continued to glare at one another until Marlene decided to turn their attention away from each other.
"Hey come on Skipper. Come on Dave. Can't you guys just stop this little fued and become friends? How hard can it be?" Marlene said to the guys. Skipper looked at her and said, "Our trust has to be earned and not just given Marlene. None of us trust Dave, right men?"
The other penguins just scratched their heads and wondered what they should say. In the end, however they just decided to be quiet. Skipper gave each of his men a surprised look. "Oh come on men. You actually trust this human?" Skipper questioned. Dave groaned and said exasperated, "Otter, Skipper. I'm an otter now. I am not human anymore. How many times do you have to be told?" Skipper looked back at Dave and continued to give him the icy glare. "It doesn't matter Dave. Once a human, always a human. My men may trust you, though I don't know why, but I still don't. Run that through your mind," Skipper said to Dave. Dave just nodded his head and said, "That's just fine with me. Me and Marlene are just here to catch the news anyway. After that we'll be out of your tail feathers. Sound good to you?" Skipper just nodded and Marlene just facepalmed and let out an annoyed sigh.
Dave and Marlene walked over to the T.V. as the Lunacorns ended and the news came on. Private stood up and waddled away to let Marlene and Dave see the news. The news music played followed by a light brightening up and revealing Chuck Charles the news man. Dave groaned and said, "Oh god I HATE this guy." Everyone shushed him.
Chuck picked up a sheet of paper as the close up picture of a snake with its mouth open appeared on screen next to his head. "It's the return of the stakeout, because the snake is out, again," Chuck began and chuckled a little bit. "The Hoboken Zoo's vicious boa constrictor, also known as Savio, escaped again from the Hoboken Zoo this morning after zoo officials failed to close his cage properly. According to witnesses, the snake was last seen entering the Hudson river and was swimming towards Manhatten just like the last time he escaped. Why does he keep going to Manhatten? What is of signifigance there for him? The answers we do not know. Law officials are currently keeping a close eye on the Hudson, but with the vastness of The Hudson the snake may not be found before he escapes the river. We will have more updates as this story develops. But for right now hide your pets and keep your children inside, because a vicious snake is on the loose. Next spor-."
Private who had had the remote flipped off the T.V. and stood their with a frightened expression on his face. Silence had filled the room for just a moment before all hell broke loose. Marlene screamed first and began running around in circles. Private dropped the remote, screamed, and then curled into a ball and started whimpering. Rico screamed and ran around in circles just like Marlene. Kowalski screamed as well, knocked over the table by accident and started running into a wall over and over again. Almost as if his brain had been drained again.
Dave and Skipper were the only ones that were not going crazy.
Skipper rolled his eyes and then slapped the four panicing animals. Everyone calmed down and rubbed the areas where Skipper had slapped them.
"EVERYONE CALM DOWN RIGHT NOW. PANICING IS NOT GOING TO SOLVE ANYTHING. WE HAVE DEALT WITH SAVIO BEFORE AND WE'LL DO IT AGAIN," Skipper yelled at them all. Private whimpered again and said, "But Skippa the first time went bad and the second time we got lucky." Kowalski nodded and said, "That snake is always on a learning curve. He may have everything figured out by now and use it to his advantage."
Dave stared at everyone in total confusion and opened his mouth to speak. "Alright I'm confused right here. Who is this Savio guy and why are you guys afraid of him?" Dave asked. Private shivered a little bit and said, "Please don't say Skippa. I don't want the sleepless nights again." Skipper sighed and said, "Alright Private I won't say it. Kowalski would you please?"
Kowalski nodded to Skipper and said to Dave, "Savio is a boa constrictor that temporarily lived here at the zoo. During his stay, he escaped from his habitat several times and swallowed the lemurs, Private, and Marlene. Thanks to Burt the elephant, we managed to get everyone out before Savio could digest them. He was sent back to Hoboken, but he escaped a few monthes later and tried to eat all of us. Because of Julian's cowardness, Savio was stopped with butter all over his body before he could eat anyone. The butter that coated his body made him slippery and he couldn't move around."
Private whimpered some more and Dave shuddered. The mere thought of being swallowed and being digested made his skin crawl.
Marlene shuddered as well and a few tears ran down the side of her face. "It was scary. Vey scary. The feeling of that snake coiling around me and peering down his throat as he swallowed me was just scary. I can't even begin to imagine what being digested feels like," Marlene said as she wiped the tears from her face.
Kowalski turned to Marlene and said, "It would have been an intense burning sensation that would have lasted a long time as you slowly dissolved into proteins that Savio's body needed in order to keep him healthy."
Marlene, Dave, Private, and Skipper each gave Kowalski a death glare. Rico just continued his usual stare. Kowalski noticed their gazes and said, "Oh right. I think I'll just shut up now." Marlene growled and yelled, "KOWALSKI I DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW THAT AND NOW I CAN'T GET THAT THOUGHT OUT OF MY HEAD." Marlene then socked Kowalski on the beak. Kowalski groaned and then rubbed the area where Marlene had hit him.
Dave stood up from the milk crate that he had been sitting on and said, "Right so what are we going to do about this everyone?" Skipper took charge and completly ignored Dave and said, "First we get the lemurs and big grey up to speed on the situation. We'll meet at the elephant habitat and we'll discuss our plan there. Now move everyone, Savio could be here at anytime now." The penguins and both of the otters jumped out of the HQ through the fish bowl entrance and rushed towards the lemur habitat.
This is not good. Not good at all. What is everyone going to do about Savio and what is Savio planning. You'll have to read to find out.
Reviews will help me feel good folks so be sure to leave them.
