Here is the final chapter I hope you enjoy it!
Sadie was curled up in a tight defensive ball, crying hard and she was just outside the central park zoo gates. Skipper traced the sound of his chick's weeping and the sound she was making tugged on his heartstrings. How could he have been so cruel. For the first time in his life, Skipper was afraid... afraid of losing his daughter. "Sadie?" he asked cautiously as he approached his daughter. Sadie did not move, she remained in the same position and only flinched slightly as her dad rested one of his flippers on her back. "Sweetheart I am so sorry... I never meant any of those words I said... Can you ever forgive me?" Skipper cried with anguish as his emotion took over. His whole body began to shake as a result of his crying. Sadie lifted her head, originally she was going to say coldly "How can I ever forgive you!" but something stopped her... She had never seen her dad shed a single tear before in her entire life even when he had to cope with his fear of needles. "I'm sorry..." Sadie began as she cradled her dad "You have nothing to be sorry for..." Skipper muttered softly, but Sadie added in a choked voice "Am I such a disappointment to you..." as tears ran down her face, she sobbed hard. Skipper shushed her and whispered "No" and he held her close. Suddenly, a growl broke them apart and they realised a stray dog with beady eyes was approaching them. "Daddy..." Sadie said in a worried tone of voice and Skipper stood up "Sadie get behind me now!" Skipper ordered as the dog came nearer baring its teeth. Sadie eagerly obliged, one of her biggest fears was dogs. Skipper began making high-pitched penguin calls warning the dog not to come any closer. Matching his calls the dog barked louder and Sadie had to dig deep to not let out a whimper. Suddenly, Nigel seemed to appear out of nowhere as he leapt from the zoo wall on to the dog's back and it began running around. Managing to successfully throw him off, Nigel skidded across the ground with his feet spread wide apart. "It that the best you've got?" Nigel questioned the dog as he prepared for it to charge. The dog was about to, however officer X appeared and he grabbed it with a catch pole. The penguins had already saw their chance to escape and were back, safely in the confines of the zoo. Back in the HQ the whole group had a celebration and a bit of a party (yes Skipper actually allowed them to have a party!). Once the chicks has said goodybe to their uncle Nigel and they were all in bed, Skipper turned to Nigel and addressed him. "You know Nigel I took you for a big pansy, but turns out your pretty good with kids and all...Thanks." Skipper admitted humbly and Nigel smiled "It was no feather of my chest, chap! I am a father myself after all and it is time I headed home!" Nigel announced cheerfully and secretly on the inside Skipper was leaping with joy, Private's britishness was just about enough as he could handle! "Take me with you!" Private cried as he lunged himself at his uncle. "Give over Private lad, I'm sure you can all make a trip to London sometime in the future!" Nigel laughed and fondly ruffled his newphew's head and he climbed up the ladder. Rico grunted and Skipper agreed "Yes, Rico I wonder how he is getting home as well..." and Kowalski raised a flipper. "Um Skipper hate to tell you this but... he has hijacked one of our planes!". The adults scrambled up the ladder and saw Nigel with a pair of googles on. "Chocks away!" Nigel shouted cheerfully as he winked and headed home for old Blighty. Yelling after him Skipper used some of his angry words and added "You British devil!" for good measure. Although, he knew he owed Nigel a debt for helping him realise he needed to start treating his daughter and Scout equally...
Me: Thank you so much for all of your continued support. I hope you enjoyed this story and please feel free to review! I am planning on writing my Rio story next, which was originally going to be my first fanfic. So I hope you will enjoy that one, but I promise to come back with more penguins of madagascar stories later xxx
All of the penguins except Skipper: You better!
