Skipper's Choice

Nicatia and Skipper were assigned to a dangerous mission. They had to deliver a blue print from one base to the other. It was going good until they entered a cave. That's when they faced Shanks the Mongoose and he started to attack.

"Give it up, Shanks," Skipper growled, "It's two against one! You can't win!"

The mongoose smiled crookedly. "A penguin and a lil lemur gal? There's no challenge in that!" He charged at whom he thought was the weakest, but little did he know, Nicatia had excellent fighting skills.

Nicatia dodged and kicked him for behind. "Give it up, Shanks!"

"I already said that," Skipper pointed out.

"So? Does it matter if two people say it?"

"Come up with your own catch per phase!" Skipper snapped.

"Oh like 'give it up' is so original!" she snapped back.

Skanks snickered, taking the opportunity to pull out a knife and stab the lemur, grabbed the blue prints from her bag and ran off. "So long, suckas!" he shouted over his shoulder.

Nicatia weakly pushed herself up. "Don't worry... about me," she huffed, "Go after...Shanks!" Her darkening eyes shut as she bleed on the floor.

Skipper clenched his fist. He really shouldn't do that, but he had no choice.

***

Nicatia lazily opened her beautiful blue eyes. "Nng... W-Where am I...? Skipper?"

Skipper held the lemur tightly in his arms. "We're in the infirmary."

"Did... you get Shanks?" she asked, her eyes half open.

Skipper shook his head. "I took you back for medical attention... Shanks got away with the blue prints."

Nicatia's eyes shot open and she glared at her teammate. She got up, grabbed a nearby clip board and started to fiercely hit the penguin over and over. "You bastard! How could you let the enemy get away with the blue prints? Don't you listen?! I told you to go after Shanks!!"

***

After an hour or so, Nicatia ran out of energy and fell asleep, leaving Skipper laying on the floor, knocked out, face and body beat red from clipboard prints. Still, if Skipper could have went back in time, he would have still chooses to save his friend.

A/N: Looks like even back then, Nicatia's(AKA; Rune) got the best of her. XD
