... CHAPPIE TWOOO! ...
Just To Save A Life
Chapter 2
PRIVATE'S POV
"NNOOO!" I shrieked through the cloth. "RICO! NO! NOO!" I said. Tears were streaming down my face as I watched him get shot in the head.
"RICO!" I kept screaming. He can't be dead. No! I couldn't accept it.
Tears kept coming down my cheeks and my resistance to the pulls of my captor became weaker and weaker as I saw the lobsters afar turn the limp body around and made sure he was dead.
I couldn't see the rise and fall of his chest. I couldn't see his eyes move. I couldn't see any movement from my comrade.
He was gone.
I cried into the cloth in my mouth. Rico… It was all my fault. If I hadn't run into that trap, none of this would've happened.
I was pulled toward the remote part of the park. A truck as big as our blue one was there. The lobster harshly threw me into vehicle. I hit my head hard on the wall and fell back down, unconscious.

SKIPPER'S POV
"Kowalski, we should go check Rico and Private. The two might need something. Private all the more… he might need us." I told my second-in-command.
"Agreed." Kowalski replied.
We both headed toward the east side of the park and looked around for our two other brothers.
"Private? Rico? Front and center!" I shouted.
No reply.
"PRIVATE! RICO!" Kowalski called.
"SOLDIERS, GET OVER HERE!..."
Still no reply…
"Hmm.. that's strange. They almost never disobey a direct order." I wondered.
"Skipper, look!" Kowalski said, spotting a familiar black and white pattern of feathers. "Is that… Rico?"
My eyes widened in horror at the sight of the penguin on the floor.
"No… no, no, NO!" I cried and slid as fast as I could to get to my mo-hawked comrade.
I put a flipper on him and gasped. His body felt cold and lifeless.
"Rico?" I begged for him to respond.
I turned him around and saw that blood on his head and his belly.
Kowalski slid to my side and gasped. "H-he-he was sh-shot!" Kowalski told me.
Tears started to well up in my eyes. "Rico…" I said his name again, grabbing his limp flipper and holding it close.
"I swear, whoever did this to you, I'll ring his neck and make him regret it." I said.
"Skipper…" Kowalski called me.
I looked up from my slight sobbing to see that Kowalski had inspected the stand near us. He neared me and held out a note.
"I found this on the ground." He said, handing me the piece of paper.
Dear Skipper,
We have your precious little Private. If you ever want to see him alive again, you will surrender and let me take over the world. If not, you all will meet an unfortunate end. I'm sure you'll figure out our location. Unless, ofcourse, Kowalski's not smart enough to find it. That is all.
Your enemy,
Dr. Blowhole
"Villainous scum! Blowhole's got Private. And I bet he's behind Rico's murder!" I growled, my voice full of hatred.
Kowalski nodded in agreement. "What do you suggest we do?"
"First, we take care of Rico's body. Leave no trace. We don't want the humans to start freaking out." I instructed.
"Right…"
"Do you think you can track him down?"
"I can try." Kowalski told me.
"Great. We'll hold funeral for Rico at dawn." I said with a mournful look.
