Author's Note: Hardly any reviews . How depressing! Carrying on, making twoshot (code for: This story will go on forever). This one's in Gloria's POV (Yes, I know it's a NJM fic, but I'm taking penguinic license! Oh, the wit…). Hope you like!

Months passed since The Big Fight. I had since learned the reason for Mumble's sudden hostility. And where he'd gone after I left.

Stubborn hippity- hoppity fool! But I was worried, and scared, and lonely. There is only one for each penguin…

But, I had a class to teach, and would not let my friends down like Mumble let me down. " Okay, " I began, getting the attention of the shuffling, chattering chicks "You know what a heartsong is, and how to find one. Can someone sing theirs for me?"

One student, Lilia stepped forward "Sing yours Miss! Please?"

Ouch. This was going to hurt, but I couldn't give them any reason that I couldn't. I took a deep breath, drew myself up to full height, and let the words go.

Midnight creeps so slowly into hearts of those who need more than they get,

Daylight deals a bad ha-

I choked on the word when I heard a tapping join my singing. I searched for the source, but all I saw were other astonished penguins. I sighed, and continued;

Daylight deals a bad hand to a penguin that has laid too many bets,

Tap ta-tap tap tap ta-ta-ta-tap tap tap taptap taptaptaptap

The mirror stares you in the face, and says baby,

Uh-huh, it don't work!

Tap ta-tap tap tap ta-ta-ta-tap tap tap tap tap- tap tap tap

Subconsciously walking away from my class, I called "Where are you?"

Lo and behold, over a snow drift appeared a sleek, black male penguin with a yellow bowtie. His bright blue eyes were focussed on me. I approached him, and for a moment, we were the only penguins in the world.

"Gloria," he began, but I held up one flipper and smiled. It was all alright now…

BEEP! BEEP!

I suddenly woke up from the trance, and became conscious of all the others staring at us. A high pitched sound was coming from Mumble!

"Don't worry, it's just this," he turned around, and a gasp rose up. A big thing was stuck on his back, and it was flashing "it's from the aliens! They're coming! But they don't respond to singing, just this…"

He began to tap again, but another sound was audible. A building roar, terrifyingly close. A huge… thing flew over the nation, and landed on one of the cliffs behind Mumble and I.

I think that's the first time I have ever heard silence. And I can't say I enjoyed the experience. Mumble resumed dancing, and I joined him, after a pause.

"Hello? Are you completely blind?" I called out over the sea of black and white. Apparently, most of them were, because there was only one response. A loud, pair of feet coming from behind us.

I couldn't believe Memphis was out of that cave, and dancing! Even Mumble skipped a few beats of his dance in shock. But he just continued with a nod.

Yet another rhythm joined. Norma Jean was dancing her way up the hill, but avoiding Memphis' gaze. I knew exactly what was wrong, and I think Mumble got the gist too, because he moved to one side, no longer dividing his parents (literally and figuratively).

These events, which take so long to describe, happened in a matter of seconds. And sure enough, a rumble came from my class, who simply followed my lead. Their parents, my friends, soon started too.

Even the Elders (though I really wish they hadn't tried… ancient birds trying to dance isn't a good look) eventually joined. Thousands of penguins, following the one who had initially been cast out for being different.

The aliens left soon after that, and nothing went back to normal. Mumble and I were finally together, and if months of separation aren't enough to tear us apart then nothing ever will be.

We have a chick now, who goes to penguin school with Mumble's sister. Needless to say, Memphis and Norma Jean are once again inseparable. Their new baby, Bee, has a beautiful voice.

Not half as beautiful though, as Chrissy's, our own daughter. Hers is much better than mine, and she's only a baby.

But best of all, she dances to her own heartsong.

P.S.: Ramon is yet to have a good relationship

Finito!!! I might do a Chrissy story. I'll see how any reviews I get hint hint. Little button there! Click it now, or you will be attacked by an orca!!!
