Disclaimer: I don't own Penguins of Madagsacar.

The bustling sounds of my family began ringing in my ears. Opening my eyes I stared at the wall. I'm surprised neither of my sibs burst in already. Closing my eyes, I tried to go back to sleep.

That is, until I remembered about yesterday's events.

I bolted up and reached for my iPad on the nightstand. Quickly entering the code, I went straight for my Email. My breath froze and eyes unmoving from the screen, waiting for anything new to update.

"AAAIIIIEEEE!"

I ran out of my room and to the kitchen where my mom was practically chocking on her food. Dad had already left for work.

She swallowed and gulped down some coffee before turning to me, "What happened? Something wrong?"

I was so excited I couldn't speak, only letting out squeals and giggles. Fangirl broke out of her cage, "I got a job."

She was stunned and didn't look away, "... W-what?"

"I got a job. I applied for one yesterday and I got it!"

"Seriously? Finally! Wait til dad hears about this. Where?"

"At the zoo!"

She paused, "The zoo?"

I felt my smile begin to falter. Whenever she used that tone, it meant something was wrong, "Y-yeah. The Central Park Zoo. Isn't that good?"

"Are you sure you wanna work at a zoo? I mean it's a lot of responsibility to take care of the animals."

By now my smile was gone, and Fangirl was back in her cage. I started losing confidence, "Isn't... Getting a job what you guys... Wanted?"

"Well yeah but... At a zoo?"

'You say it like it's a bad thing. I already applied and got the job. I'm not gonna quit before I start.'

There was silence for a few moments before the kids came in screaming.

"Momma Tino won't give my crayons back!" Bella whined.

"I found them on my bed!" Tino counter-argued.

"Nuh huh! You got them from my marker box!"

"No I didn't!"

"Bella," mom started, "Just let him use it."

"No!"

"You wanna sit on your bed for twenty minutes. You have a whole box full and he doesn't have any. Share."

The two went back to their room. Tino still had the crayons, followed by an angry Bella.

She looked back to me, "Alright. If you wanna work at a zoo, fine. It's your choice."

I smiled slightly before going back to my room.

Alice was standing near the Zoovenir shop when I arrived. When she saw me, she handed me the Zookeeper uniform and told me to change in the locker room by the office.

After changing she gave me my first task, "Alright since your new, I'll be giving you your assignments."

'You mean the ones you don't wanna do?'

"So first your going to feed the animals."

'Yup. Wait.'

"Um isn't there an automated feeder here?"

"There was up until a few days ago. It crashed or something. I think it was overloaded with fish."

I looked down and smiled. 'The penguins must've wanted more fish and broke it.'

"Anyway you'll find all the animal food in the storage over there. Be sure to feed all of them, or something." She walked away, probably to take a nap in her office.

I walked to the storage and read the labels to tell which food items belonged to each animal. Some of them were easy to figure out: Bananas for the Bada and Bing, flies for the chameleons, hay for Burt, fruit for the lemurs, and, of course, fish for the penguins.

I started hauling out the items to the right animals, saving the penguins for last. Speaking of the penguins, I looked to the habitat and saw they weren't there again. Perhaps enjoying the morning before they start training... Or building another escape tunnel... Or planning another attack on the food venders in the park. You never exactly know what those penguins are up to.

The entire time I was feeding the animals, music was blasting from the lemur habitat. I got a devious idea when I remembered what an impression I made on Julien and smirked. Walking back to the storage, I grabbed a bundle of fruit and made sure to stay to the side of their habitat. Entering through the side door, I sneaked in the background, making sure they didn't see me. I heard Julien ordering Maurice around, "Maurice! Where is my royal morning smoothie! I can not be entertaining de people if I do not have my morning smoothie!"

"Sorry king Julien but Alice hasn't arrived with the fruit yet."

"Ugh! Where is dat lady zookeeper?" He paused before shouting, "Mort what have I told you about de feet!"

I could hear Julien kick Mort, and the next thing I know, he's flying in the air toward me. Stepping back, Mort landed in front of my and stared wide eyed at me. He raced back to the others. 'Great. So much for my plan... Hm then again.'

I put on 'The Stare' when he turned around and paused.

"Ah! Maurice! It is de scary girl from yesterday!"

"The one who claimed she was sent by the Sky Spirits?"

"Yes. Quick we must make her feel comfy so that the Sky Spirits will not dink I am a bad king."

I spoke before he could say any more, "Do not bother Julien! For the Sky Spirits have already labeled you as the worst in existence! Nothing will change the Sky Spirits minds!"

"Nooo! How can dis be?"

I climbed the stone structure to the top, "However, there are a few things that will possibly change their minds."

"Yes anything! Anything so that I shall be a good king!"

"These are the sacred fruits of the Sky Spirits. If you SHARE them evenly with Mort and Maurice, then MAYBE, their minds will change."

I dropped the fruit and walked out of their habitat not looking back. Until I got outside, I saw that Julien looked rather upset at having to share. Mort and Maurice both looked happy.

I smiled and walked back to the storage to get the fish. Upon arriving at the penguin habitat I saw they were doing daily exercises, but their backs were facing me. I quietly went over and grabbed the plank Alice used to get in. Silently placing it, I jumped over the fence and tip-toed across. They still didn't hear or see me, which was surprising.

"Alright men again, and this time keep up with us Private." Ordered Skipper.

"Sorry Skippah, I'm just a little paranoid that's all."

"Glad to know you got your paranoia cap on Private, but for the wrong reason. Whoever chased us yesterday was a one time thing."

"That and we haven't seen or heard of her since. Except you claiming that you saw her twice already after the incident." Kowalski analyzed.

Rico circled his flipper around his head, "Cuckoo."

I giggled, gaining their attention.

Private POV

We all turned to see the girl was standing behind us with a pail of fish. But what caught my eye was the zookeeper uniform.

"I can't believe I'm actually meeting all of you for real," She started shaking a little and slight jumping out of excitement it seemed,"I'm so elated that you four are actually real. I'm surprised you didn't hear me coming right now. Especially you Skipper, after 'Huffin and Puffin' you seem to have a strong sixth sense. You know dodging all the traps the other's set up for you while taking a walk with Marlene."

I stared wide eyed at her. How did she know we had once set taps for him while he walked with Marlene? I noticed the others shared the same look as mine.

"Then again Marlene had to push you out of the way when a fourth trap almost got you. I loved how you had to ask the others and got confused when you got to Rico. But seeing Hans for the first time since Denmark didn't occur to you either."

Skippah was getting suspicious, by the way his eyes narrowed and beak frowned.

"Oh man now I'm rambling on, hahahaha, sorry I'll just leave your food here for you," She dumped the fish in front of us, "And I'll just be going."

She turned around and began to walk away, but not before Skippah ordered, "Rico! Lasso her up!"

Rico coughed up a rope and threw it at her, tying her up. He pulled the rope causing the girl to fall back.

I winced a little as she fell on her back and hit her head. She sat back up as Skippah jumped on her lap and looked straight into her eyes, "Alright, " he looked at her name tags before continuing, " Angel. Or if thats your real name. How did you know the incident with Hans!"

Angel only stared back at him, "Um I can't understand yah Skipper. But I'm guessing you're being all paranoid."

"Can't understand me huh? Then how did you know who I was!" He raised a flipper, showing he was about to slap her.

But she was unfazed, "You wouldn't hit a defenseless girl would you Skipper?" She pouted.

He glared and put his flipper down, we all know he couldn't hit a human female.

"Skipper if I may intrude," Kowalski interjected, "She is a human, thus she can't understand us, but I have a solution!" He rans back into the HQ and comes back out with some type of tape recorder with a funnel-like thing on one side and a microphone attached to the other.

"This is the invention I was working on yesterday. It translates any language into another just be speaking into this microphone. The translated message them comes out of this funnel and into another language, in our case English. It should also translate animal language into human English."

Kowalski walked up to Angel and was about to speak before she asked, "It's not gonna blow up like all your other inventions is it?"

She grinned sheepishly as he glared at her while Rico chuckled.

He put the microphone to his beak, "Not all of my inventions fail!"

She reacted immediately, "Oh my god! I understand you! And yes not all, but most do."

"It... It worked! The Translator 3000 worked!" He began jumping for joy and started babbling about the possibilities. Skippah rolled his eyes and grabbed the microphone, "How did you know all that! Who gave you classified information!"

"Calm down Skippy. I know because I watch the show."

"What show?" I asked.

"Penguins of Madagascar, or PoM for short. It's a show that's based on you guys as well as some other characters you encounter."

"What other characters? And how many people know about this 'PoM' show?"

"Oh a lot of people watch it. As for the characters, well the zoo animals of course, and some villains. Blowhole, Savio, Hans, Clemson, Officer X, The Red Squirrel, the Vesuvius twins, and many others."

I could tell Skippah was still suspicious, but I still wanted to know something, "So when you were following us yesterday and appeared in the zoo twice, you only wanted to meet us?"

"Uh duh! I would go meet my favorite characters, but they're not here. But Kowalski and Rico are two of my faves so it's all good."

"What about Skippah and I?"

"I wanted to meet you guys too. Though I can see Skipper's being paranoid and doesn't trust me."

"You got that right sister! You say you whatch a show of ours, which we have no clue of, and that you're a fan. But how do we know you're not a spy for the enemy."

The zoo had been closed for nearly an hour now. The zookeepers had gone home leaving all the animals to have the evening to themselves. We were back in the HQ doing our usual things again. There was silence between all of us. Something strange usually happened everyday for us, but today probably takes the cake.

We met a strange girl who claims she's a fan of a show we had no idea of. I doubt Skippah will trust her, even if she does prove it somehow.

It'll probably get worse if she finds a way in.

"You know I've always wondered about this door."

I jumped out of my feathers when her voice rang through the HQ. She was standing there staring at the lab door.

"It usually has Kowalski's lab behind it, but then it's shown to be a spare room like when you all hid the blackmail of all the animals in the zoo," She turned towards me, "They still don't remember do they Private?"

How did she? No one remembered that day but me!

"And then it's like another way into the HQ, like the time when the inflatium spilt on Skipper and Julien barged in twice. First when Kowalski popped the ballon and thought a party was happening. The second after the others left to fight Hans."

"Enough!" Skippah yelled and grabbed the microphone, "How did you get in here and how do you know all this!"

"Like I said I watch the show. One of your escape ways need to be re-done by the way, the one Blowhole through. I'm surprised you guys didn't do that already." She reaches into a bag and pulls out an iPad. Turing the screen to us we saw a site labeled Madgascar Wiki. We were, in fact, on the side of the page.

"This page leads to information on the movies and the series."

My POV

Their faces were priceless.

All of them were shocked to see that I was telling the truth, even Skipper! I felt Fangirl rising again. Elation was beyond what I was feeling, ever since earlier when I told them I would return tonight to give them proof, since they obviously didn't believe me.

"But that's impossible," said Kowalski taking the microphone, "We've been on T.V this entire time, and we had no idea!"

"For the past four years yes."

Rico grabbed my iPad to look through everything, mostly on the show.

I smiled and pointed out, "I've seen nearly every episode of the show, seen all three movies, and specials. That's why I know so much about who you guys are and whats happened here at the zoo."

Private grabbed the microphone, "But how come we hadn't a clue about this? And why on us?"

"I guess you guys were popular in the movies so they made a spin-off series. That usually happens," I started to frown when I remembered something about the show.

"Why the long face?" Private asked.

"It's just that, your show is one of the few awesome cartoons they have on now a days. And apparently, the network is thinking about stoping it or has already done so."

"Stopped?" Kowalski pondered, "But what about all our fans out there? Does that mean they'll never see us again?"

"Well I'm sure they'll still watch some episodes on line. There just won't be any new ones showing."

Skipper finally spoke up, "So let me get this straight. You're a fan, not a spy?"

"Um... yes. Of course I'm a fan! You guys rock! Does this mean I'm off the hook?"

"Not entirely. I still don't trust what you're telling us nor do I trust you for knowing all of this."

"Understandable. You're the one with a parania cap 24/7 anyway. Well, the more serious one," I looked at the clock to see it was a few hours before ten. My parents won't mind if I stay a little longer, "Hey do you guys wanna see some episodes?"

Rico nodded his head vigorously with Private and Kowalski following. Skipper only turned away to his bunk. 'Party-Pooper'

The door opened wide to reveal the royal pain screaming something with a wide smile on his face.

'Oh great.'

"Julien, none of us said the word party. Even if one of us did how could you have heard it?"

'What the?"

He looked around disapprovingly, as if expecting to see party decorations before finally turning to me. He had a shocked expression then fell to his knees.

"Is Julien one of the many characters on the show?"

"Of course he is. There has to be a character that annoys everyone doesn't there?"

Skipper walked up to him and appeared to be screaming. Julien only smiled and seemed to be explaining something while pointing at me. I rolled my eyes and thought about telling the truth. Instead I smirked and decided not to, wondering if I could get him to stop acting the way he is temporarily. Nothing like in the 'Eclipsed' episode.

After a few minutes of fighting Skipper finally got Julien to leave. Private turns to me and asks, "What was all that about?"

"I'm guessing he was talking about me being sent by the Sky Spirits?" After receiving some nods I continued, "I tricked him into thinking I was sent to tell him he was the worst king to ever exist and the only way to change the Sky Spirits minds was to do a few tasks. Today I got him to share some 'sacred' fruit with Mort and Muarice evenly. So yeah he thinks I should be listened to just to get a good title. Anyway, who wants to watch some episodes?"

I'm so happy people like this story! Frankly, I didn't expect any reviews, guess I was wrong!

I feel like I'm rushing too much, but at the same time putting too much detail DX

In case any of you are wondering if villains are gonna appear, a few will later on. Either next chapter or after.
