Outside The Danish Embassy
(Skipper's POV)
"Okay boys," I said from behind our bushy hiding place, "We're in the belly of the beast now…one wrong move and we could end up on the Denmark's most wanted list." "But we just got you off the most wanted list," Private said, "I still don't know the story though." "All in due time Private all in due time," I replied. "Skipper the only way we can get to the basement unseen is thru the side entrance," Kowalski said. "Boys we should be good as long as the North Wind doesn't show up," I said. "That the first time I heard you mention The North Wind in years," Kowalski commented.
"We need to get in…get out…then stop the Nanite-Daleks," I said, "Commence operation: Danish Cannon extraction." "For someone who wants to clear his name," a very familiar voice said, "you do like to get in trouble with the Danes." "Hans!" I shouted, "We don't have time to deal with you right now!" "Skipper," the puffin replied, "My old frienemy." The puffin pulled out a swordfish instead of his usual mackerel I wished I had my laser pointer right now. "Now life would be so much easier for you if you let me keep those snaps," Hans said. "Wait you want revenge over some pictures?" I asked. "It make more sense than wanting revenge for foiled revenges," He replied, "and I don't care if Blowhole hears me or not." "Neither of those makes much sense," Kowalski muttered.
"Taking into account what you said earlier," Hans said, "I will leave you alone…of course the pursuit of that EMP cannon is a bad idea but good luck." And with that the puffin left, he will return I'm certain of that. "Skipper we have an opening the side door is unguarded," Kowalski said. "Let move out," I shouted. We went across the street and thru the side down before the guard returned. "Ha! You would think the Danes would have more security then this," I said as we waited for the elevator to reach the basement.
A few moments later the doors slid open and we found ourselves in a completely unguarded basement. "Arrogance," Kowalski said, "As I recall that was the downfall of The Daleks." "Let's not jump to conclusions…where's the cannon," I said as Kowalski pulled out his smartphone. "EMP Cannon is this way," Kowalski said. We followed Kowalski until we reach a door that said, "Secure Area do not enter" and "Authorized personal only beyond this point" Under this was the same two warnings in Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, and Old Norse. "I do not detect the presence of Embassy guards," Kowalski said, "we're clear."
"Kowalski," I said, "the door can you open it." Kowalski plugged his smartphone into the keypad and said, "There're using AES inscription…Weak." "So can you…" I said as the door slid open. "Of course," he replied. We piled into the room as the door closed behind us. "There it is," Kowalski said, "The EMP Cannon." "So what does it do?" Private asked. "If it was in the wrong hands…or flippers it could take out an entire country's power grid and render Cars, electronics, and anything that runs on electricity useless." "Um how are we going to get it out of here?" "Kowalski'strink ray," I replied.
Rico, Private, and I stood facing the door while Kowalski shrunk The EMP Cannon. "The Cannon is ours," Kowalski shouted. "Okay Boys," I said, "we need to return to Kowalski's Lab and…" "Skipper that's a horrible idea the Nanites are back there," Kowalski said, "they could have taken the Base over by now." Just then alarms started to sound, "Let's move before the Danes come here…I will not end up in Denmark! Mark my words!" "Stop Penguins!" the head guard said, "you will not escape this time!" "Rico signature move!" I said. Rico coughed up a smoke bomb and under the cover of smoke we escaped the embassy.
