Chapter 4: The Truth is Out
Crystal walked into the room.
"So how are you boys enjoying yourselves?" she asked coolly, pouring herself a cup of coffee sticking a fish in it, along with milk and sugar.
"You put a fish in your coffee too?" Skipper asked.
"Oh yes. It gives it that sweet taste of fish in it, wouldn't you agree Donatello?" she asked, using Skipper's fake name.
"Certainly madam." He agreed.
"Do you like your coffee black, regular, or decaf?" she asked.
"Regular," Skipper answered.
"Tony, Bob? What about you two?"
"Regular, just like Donatello." Kowalski replied. "And you better make Bob's a decaf."
"Why?"
"He's the psychotic one of the group. He loves explosions or anything with action in it. Caffeine will make him really hyper. "
"Hmm." She muttered, making their coffees. "Would you boys like fish in your coffee?"
"No thank you."
"FISH!"
"Okay and don't worry Paul, I'll get your tea in a moment." Crystal replied making Skipper's, Kowalski's and Rico's cup of coffee.
She slid their coffees to them and started making Private's tea.
"So Crystal what was your brother like before you two were separated?" Skipper asked.
"Sk-Donatello! You should know better not to ask them something that is too personal." Private frowned.
"No it's okay Paul, I don't mind." Crystal replied sitting his tea down. "Actually boys, before I talk to you about my brother I have something that I think you might be interested in. If you could follow me please."
The four male penguins looked at each other and shrugged, getting up to follow her.
She led them to a room near the end of the hall.
"Follow me through here." She replied, opening the third door on the left.
They walked inside.
"So what's this surprise Crystal?" Kowalski asked.
"You'll see." She answered, shutting the door behind.
The room was pitch black.
"What the…?" Skipper squawked.
Crystal tackled them in the pitch dark room (which you wouldn't know because you wouldn't be able to see them).
And she chained them to the wall.
"What's going on here?" Private exclaimed.
Crystal switched on a desk lamp, pointing the light on their faces.
"Now don't you DARE lie to me again! Who are you? Are you working for my arch enemy, Professor Snake? Tell me now!" she demanded, pulling Skipper's head to look at her.
"We're not lying!" Kowalski exclaimed.
"Don't lie to me Tony or should say Kowalski?" she snapped.
They looked at her in shock.
"That's right! I heard you. Now start spilling." She growled.
"Okay! We'll spill!" Private exclaimed.
"Private!" Skipper scowled.
She pulled out a knife and held it against the flat headed penguin's neck.
"Answers. Now." She growled.
"Okay! I'm Skipper, leader of my team. And we aren't really from Cleveland." Skipper explained.
"We were transported from the future by accident miss!" Private took over.
"Yea, sure." She muttered, not believing them.
"It's true!" Private exclaimed.
"Prove it then!" She snapped.
"I'm your brother! Your son Victor Blowhole will be an evil villain and you adopted him from his abusive father when he was day old. I was separated from you when your crate fell off the boat! Is that enough for you?" Kowalski exclaimed.
She stared at him in disbelief.
"You're serious?" she asked.
Rico nodded. "Yup!"
She sat the knife down and pushed a button, releasing them.
"I'm sorry I had to do that to you boys, but I don't take kindly to those who lie to me. For all I know you could've been agents of my rival Professor Snake."
"Perfectly understandable." Kowalski replied.
"Good. Again I'm sorry. But my son could've been in grave danger and I can't stand to lose him."
"Perfectly fine madam." Skipper replied.
Crystal rubbed her neck.
"I should check on Victor, I don't want him to asphyxiate himself." She replied, opening the door.
She down the hall to the second door on the left opened the door and went inside.
Victor had his face buried in his pillow.
Crystal gently grabbed his head and turned it to the side.
"We don't need to hurt yourself in the middle of the night do we baby?" she whispered, kissing his cheek.
He giggled in his sleep and stuck his flipper in his mouth.
She stroked his head.
"Such a good baby for his mommy." She whispered to herself.
She walked over to the door, opening it.
She walked out a small smile on her beak.
"Good night my little angle."
She looked at the four penguins standing in front of her.
Skipper was giving her the evil eye.
"What? I can't check on my son?" she asked crossing her flippers and tapping her foot.
"No, no, our enemy is your child. But we'll leave him be since he's only a baby."
She shook her head.
"You are still hung up about the past aren't you?" she asked.
He glared at her.
"As I tell Victor when he's really upset about something: There is good and evil in everyone, some show good more often while others show evil, but never forget that love will rule all." She quoted her most used phrase.
"That was so sweet!" Private replied.
Rico was gagging.
She rolled her eyes.
She yawned.
"I need to go to bed. I'll show you boys to your rooms." She replied.
She walked down the hall with them in tow.
"My room is across Victor's; the bathroom is third door on the right. Kowalski, your room is the fourth on the left, Skipper across the hallway. Private your room is next to Skippers and Rico's is next to Kowalski."
She yawned again.
"See you boys in the morning." She muttered, going into her room.
"Good night Crystal." Kowalski replied.
"Have pleasant dreams miss Crystal." Private answered.
"Night!" Rico squawked going into his room.
Crystal looked at Skipper.
"Sleep well Skipper, and don't hold my son for something he will do in the future, now."
Skipper grunted. "See you in the morning ma'am."
Crystal shut her door.
"Boys lights out. We will continue training tomorrow morning." Skipper told his team.
"Aye, aye, Skipper." They saluted.
Skipper saluted and went into his room.
Private turned to Kowalski.
"Night K'walski."
"Good night Private."
With that they went into their rooms to see what adventure they will endure tomorrow.
