Okay, its been awhile since I updated cause I was outta town. But heres the new one. Reviews are most welcome. Read and review!
Carth smiled as he helped the old lady out of his speeder. He never smiles at me.
"Thank you Carth" she said, taking his hand and pulling her old and bent body out of the speeder.
Once a week he volunteered at a local nursing home to take an old lady to the store.
This week it was- as he liked to call her Mrs. Too Sweet.
I hopped out of the penguin mobile and hid behind a pole.
He didn't notice.
Leading the old lady inside he sat her on the carry-a-old-lady motor buggy.
I sneaked inside, using my raccoon like sneak skills. Grabbing a bag of speeder chips I peered over them at him. I wasn't sure who was older, the lady or the man pushing her.
"Carth, thank you so much for taking me so late, and on such short notice." The old lady said, smiling at his shadow next to him.
Carth rolled his eyes, the lady had been bugging him all week to take him, and she was blind as hissis running through the Koriban at night and all that was around him was plasteel walls. Or something like that.
I ran inside before Carth could see me, and that's when I saw it... Yes, there were boats there. I jumped into a bright yellow one, dragging my trench coat and penguin plushie in with me. I wanted so badly to sing Row, Row, Row your boat, but Carth would probably see me.
Then a lady with poofy hair came over. "You can't sit in the boat, its not allowed." She said, in a nice- yet mean manner. I could swear she looked like Tina from the Mike and Tina thing.
I glanced at her name tag- Rina. I jumped up, the penguin in my lap flew up and hit the lights, knocking them down before the penguin landed back in my hands. "YOUR RINA!" I screamed, getting inches away from her face.
She nodded slowly, backing away and calling security. I hate multi-taskers.
Carth looked over at me, then smacked himself in the head. Grabbing the nearest clerk he ordered him to help the old lady. The clerk seemed scared of Carth and scurried away with the old lady.
I smiled as I saw Carth come over. "What's up doc?" I asked, spying a carrot and shoving it into my mouth.
"What are you doing here?" he growled.
"Same thing you are- only better!" I said, happily, pointing at the boat, then at the store sign.
His eyes narrowed into slits. "Your shopping?..." he asked carefully.
I nodded furiously. Then thought for a moment and shook my head no.
"What are you doing here then?" he asked, still glaring at me. I thought he looked like a walrus who had too much juma that had been poked with a stick. Or whatever.
"I'm looking for a friend." I said, looking around.
Carth crossed his arms and stared at me as he awaited his answer.
"He's about six feet tall..." I started, looking at a six feet tall blow-up-in-ten-seconds-trampoline. "And he's black and white.." I said, looking at a Nun.
Carth took a moment to think. Which was good cause I had to plan my getaway in the penguin motor buggy.
"Is your friend... penguin?" he asked, staring at me in penguin belief.
I nodded, then shook my head no. "Of course." I said with a big ole' wide ole' penguin ole' grin.
He gaped, as he saw me now looking longingly at the dairy aisle.
Meanwhile, I spotted the most delicious penguiny fish sticks. My taste buds longed for the delicious and penguin-rific treat.
"Fish sticks..." I muttered, my mouth watering as I took off towards the aisle.
"No, WAIT! DON'T!" he yelled, taking off after me.
I reached into the freezer, grabbing a box with some penguin on a skateboard printed on the side. I ripped it open hastily, shoving one after the other in.
I hadn't had fish sticks since lunch time. That was twenty minutes ago.
Carth grabbed me by the arm, yanking the box from my hands.
"No! You are NOT allowed to have fish sticks when they aren't purchased yet. I think that you shouldn't even be having these. They have loads of carbs," he explained. I got tired of his endless babbling, as I began to whimper and reach for the box.
"F-Fish sticks, Carthy? P-Please?" I begged, as he continually shook his head. This didn't work, so I decided it was worse case scenario: I had to do the penguin pout.
So I got down on my feet, and perched just like a little penguin. The entire store was gaping at me, but I didn't care.
I suddenly leapt up, screaming loudly. Carth reached around a covered my mouth, as my desperate arms flailed for the fish sticks.
Carth dropped the box and I dived for them, slipping along the wet floor. As I slid I grabbed things off the shelves. I felt like a true penguin. Hours later I ended up at the cashier with eight carts full of fish sticks.
"Your total 456,675,450 credits." The cashier said, sighing as he packed the last box of fish sticks away.
I pulled out Carth's credit card which I had pick pocketed earlier. "Put it all on this. Make it show up at the end of the month please Mister Penguin." I said sweetly.
He nodded gruffly and did what he was told. I wish Carth was more like that.
-ONE MONTH LATER-
"AHHHHHH! BLOODY PENGUINS!"
