This is the last chapter, I hope you enjoy how it ends :D
Chapter 7-
Marlene turned back to normal as soon as they passed through the zoo gates. She looked at them through the bars and gulped hard.
"Erm...Guys...Did I turn feral again?" She sighed, ashamed.
"Yeah...you did" Skipper replied, in a saddened tone, glancing across at her before turning away again.
"WAIT!" Kowalski suddenly shouted.
Rico stopped pulling the cage and everyone stopped and looked at Kowalski in shock after his outburst.
"Julien, if you drank the potion to make you understand women...Why did you lead Marlene on after you openly stated that she liked Skipper?" Kowalski interrogated.
"Wait, I don't like Skipper..." Marlene blushed. Kowalski, Rico and Private raised their brows at her. She looked away awkwardly. They returned their attention back to Julien.
"Marlene does like Skipper, obviously"
"Yeah, for you to understand" Rico grunted under his breath.
"She felt that Skipper didn't take any interest in her, and that the only time he noticed her was when she got involved in his missions somehow. When she got upset at the party, I suggested that she should make Skipper jealous, because he obviously likes her"
Skipper widened his eyes and turned his back on the group.
"Then, she realised that he still didn't take interest her with this strategy and then next thing I know is that I'm being called to save the less appealing version of her"
Marlene frowned at him.
"Anyways, I just went along with it because I'm a great king" he finished ranted, feeling rather proud of himself. They all turned to look at Marlene. She looked at them with shocked eyes.
"Yeah, okay thanks for spilling out everything in my mind!" She said panicking, before muttering, "I'm so embarrassed.."
Skipper looked up from the ground. A look of realisation came across his face as if Julien's words had just sunk in. He walked over to the cage.
"You honestly thought I didn't show interest in you" He said sorrowfully, looking at her with loving eyes. She looked at him back and held his flipper's through the bars.
"I though you...I just wanted..." Marlene struggled with her words and her eyes shook as they welled up with tears. He hushed her.
"It's okay... I'm never going to make you feel like that again" He smiled at her. She smiled back and sighed when Skipper let go of her paws.
"Rico! Get these two out of the cage. Kowalski! Write this down!" Skipper ordered. Kowalski pulled out his notebook and a pen.
"Women are sensitive creatures and we are not meant to understand them for a reason" Skipper paused as Marlene stood next to him. He picked her up and held her in his arms, one flipper supporting her back and the other behind her knees. She pulled herself closer by putting her arm around his neck. They looked at each other with loving sparkling eyes. "Because it makes it a whole lot better when you work them out yourself" he grinned.
Kowalski finished jotting down the note and looked up to see Skipper and Marlene leaning their heads towards each other, closing their eyes in bliss and puckering their lips.
"O-Oh.." Rico muttered, covering Private's young and naïve eyes.
The next morning, King Julien waltzed over to the baboon's habitat.
"Hey, Darla" He called. The baboon lady looked over at him. Julien tilted his crown forward on his head.
"Your rocking the red bum look, you look like you've been...erm...spanked" he said charismatically, but failed to charm her with his rude comment. She narrowed her eyes and charged at him with a clench fist. King Julien dashed away.
"Stupidy penguins! Your potion has failed me!"
Meanwhile, Skipper, Private and Rico were sunbathing using their mirrors to reflect the sun to get a tan.
"Hey, Private, where's Kowalski?" Skipper asked.
"I think he's in his lab" Private replied.
-Kowalski's Lab-
Kowalski continued to mix potions and suddenly surprised himself.
"Eureka!" He exclaimed, "I did it! I remade the potion! Skip..." He stopped himself from calling the others. He grinned at his creation.
"Maybe they don't need to know.." He persuaded himself selfishly. He poured his potion into an empty bottle of barbeque sauce. "Hot sauce is truth serum, grape jelly is sleeping gas, ketchup is amnesia mist and barbeque sauce is the woman understander-er"
He placed it on the shelf and went to turn to walk out of his lab. Suddenly he grinned.
"Doris, baby, here I come!" He squealed excitedly as he closed the door to his lab.
-THE END-
Thankyou for reading! Please review! I hope you enjoyed it, I hope the Skilene part wasn't too disappointing, but wanted to try and mainly focus on Julien, as the story is based on him, and Kowalski, as it was his potion. I hope you enjoyed the ending, I really enjoyed writing this story especially the last two chapters, with Julien and his chat up lines and Kowalski's soliloquy:)
