Just kidding! Here's the real title,

The Exact Same, yet the Exact Opposite

As Ariel and Marlan sat there thinking, precious time went by. But suddenly, Ariel had a brain storm.

"I've got it! You know we said that one of our worlds would have had a time change? Well, if we wait for say an hour or so before you were to shoot me, then we might meet up with the other world!"

"But what if the time lapse was more than an hour, or what if they're the ones ahead of us?"

"That's a risk I'm going to have to take!"

"No! Think about this logically Ariel! If we're a parallel dimension, they're going to wait an hour or so just like us!"

"And they're probably having this same conversation!"

"Maybe we should just give up!"

"Nuh uh! We're going to have to guess whether we're ahead of their time zone or not!"

"But then they're going to do the same thing!"

"But either after or before us!"

"So, what we really need to do is guess whether they're ahead of us or not!"

"Exactly! Let's flip a coin to decide!"

"But then they'll flip a coin!"

"But remember, my world is exactly the same as yours, but the exact opposite!"

"Hmmm.... I guess we're just going to have to trust your theory!" Marlan drew out a coin from his pocket. "Heads, we're ahead of them. Tails, they're ahead of us!" He threw it up into the air and it fell neatly into his paw. "Tails. They're ahead of us."

"But what if they aren't?"

"Well, that's a risk you're gunna have to take! If you're sure you wanna take it!"

"Yes! I miss my world so much!"

"Really? Are ya sure?"

"Yes! I miss Marlene and Kowalski and Skipper and Angel and Devil, and they probably havn't gotten around to cleaning up that mess and..." Her voice trailed off as her smile was reduced to a frown.

"Really? Cuz I mean, here, you could start over! And do you really want to get back so much, you're willing to take such a hug risk?"

"Well, it wouldn't be such a huge risk!"

"Oh really? If you get shot at the wrong time, you could end up in any other dimension!" He quietly slid up closer to her.

"Well... I wouldn't so much miss all the work. But I'd still miss all my friends! And most of all, Kowalski."

"Just think about it! When was the last time Kowalski did anything for you?"

"He offered to babysit!"

"Did he offer? Or did you make him?"

"Well..."

"And even when he did do it, what happened after?"

"...He kinda wrecked the place."

"Exactly! What you really need is a guy who's willing to do anything for you! Someone who'll let you relax and get the well deserved rest you need!" He smiled sweetly at Ariel.

"Oh, I'm very flattered. But, uh, I have Kowalski! And you're like my best friend in my world! It really wouldn't feel right!"

"But as you said, this world is exactly the same, but the exact opposite!"

"Uh..."

Meanwhile...

"You know we said that one of our worlds would have had a time change? Well, if we wait for say an hour or so before I was to shoot you, we might meet up with the other world!" Marlene said.

"But what if the time lapse was more than an hour, or what if they're the ones ahead of us?"

"That's a risk you're going to have to take!"

"No! Think about this logically Marlene! If we're a parallel dimension, they're going to wait an hour or so just like us!"

"And they're probably having this same conversation!"

"Maybe we should just give up!"

"Nuh uh! We're going to have to guess whether we're ahead of their time zone or not!"

"But then they're going to do the same thing!"

"But either after or before us!"

"So, what we really need to do is guess whether they're ahead of us or not!"

"Exactly! Let's flip a coin to decide!"

"But then they'll flip a coin!"

"But remember, my world is exactly the same as yours, but the exact opposite!"

"Hmmm.... I guess we're just going to have to trust your theory!" Arien drew out a coin from his pocket. "Heads, we're ahead of them. Tails, they're ahead of us!" He threw it up into the air and it fell neatly into his paw. "Heads. We're ahead of them."

"But what if we aren't?"

"Well that's life!"

"So, what's it like in your world?"

"Trust me, it's not as good as yours!"

"What'd you mean?"

"Everyone here is alot nicer! And alot brighter if you know what I mean! Except for that Skipper guy! I really don't like him!"

"I can tell!"

"Why do you hang out with that guy?"

"Oh, cuz he's my husband!"

"Really?! Hmm... That never happened in my world! Well, I guess it's exactly the same, yet the exact opposite! But why?"

"Cuz Ilike him? Is that a crime?"

"No, it's just that I don't think he's your type! He's mean and stubborn. He shouts alot. And from what I've seen, he's not too bright!"

"Well, never judge a book y his cover! He's really quite sweet! I just wish he'd stop being so hard on the kids."

"Kids?" Marlene nodded. "Wouldn't that make them like, half otter, half penguin?"

"Yea..."

"Cool!"

"What?"

"I said 'Cool!'"

"What? You think that's 'Cool!'?!"

"Yea! I'm into stuff like that!"

"Really? Skipper usually just says that's nature's way of messing stuff up!"

"Yea, well that's Skipper! I think that that would be quite cool! Can I see them?"

"Um, sure!" Marlene led the way to Kicoco and Jenkler's cribs. Arien peered over to look at the sleeping babies.

"Aww! They're so sweet!"

"Really?!"

"Yea!" Arien replied in a whisper, careful not to wake them.

"So, you really think they're cute?"

"Yea! It's awesome!"

"Wow! You and Skipper have NOTHING in common!"

"You got that right!"

Meanwhile...

"Seriously, when was the last time you got to put your feet up and relax?"

"...About a month ago?"

"Really? Well, if I had someone as pretty and intelligent as you, I'd treat her properly!"

"Like I said before, it just wouldn't feel right! I'm sorry!"

"Just tell me why!"

"Why what?!"

"Why you like Kowalski so much? He never does anything for you!"

"And how would you know that?! You've never been to my world!"

"Well? Does he? When was the last time he ever took you out?"

"...Uh..."

"Well?"

"...Around five years ago..."

"My point exactly!"

"Kowalski's lovely! He's sweet and kind and caring! And he doesn't ask stupid questions all the time!"

"Uh huh! And just tell me when the last time he brought you chocolates or something, besides your birthday!"

"Well... um, there was this one time when... no, Rico ate that... Well he did get me this one... no that was actually another zoo animal... Oh I know! He got me a lovely... no, Alice confiscated that! Dang! Why it is so hard to get a descent present not covered in mucus I will never know!" Marlan started chuckling.

"Smiling even through tears!"

"I'm not crying! Nor am I smiling!"

"It's an expression. And it means, that even when you're sad about something, you make it seem like you're not!"

"I am not sad about anything right now!"

"Yes you are! It's blaintanly clear that you never seem to get any attention back there!"

"I do!"

"There you go again! Trying to hide your sorrows while everyone can see what's really going on in your reptilian brain!"

"Actually, I believe it's the mammalian part of the brain that controls the emotions! The reptilian brain controls how you move and breathe! And the higher brain controls how you think about problems and sums and all that junk! And the higher brain is then split up into two sections. The left controls stuff like maths and sums and all that jazz, while the right brain is all about drama, and music and art!"

"Oh whatever!" Ariel giggled quietly.

"Sometimes one side of your brain can be more dominative than the other. If you have a more dominant right brain you will be clumsy and disorganised. And if you have a more dominant left-"

"Yes yes yes! I know about the brain and how it is divided into different sections! And then how those sections are divided into smaller sections! And then how those smaller sections are-" (and no, I did not just copy and paste all this random babble! I actually leant this stuff in school! And I'm only 12! So, :P to you!)

"I get the picture! So, who's in a huff now? Huh?"

Meanwhile (again!)...

"So, what's the deal with you and Skipper then?"

"What'd you mean?"

"Well, like, how come you DON'T LIVE IN THE SAME HOUSE?!"

"Because Alice would notice a penguin IN THE WRONG HABITAT!"

"Alice?"

"The Zoo Keeper."

"Oh! So he's called Alice here! In our world it's Adam!"

"Adam? What a stupid name!" (No offence to people named Adam!)

"Yea I know! But what I mean is, like don't you guys ever mingle or anything? Because it seems to me as if there's nothing really going on!"

"Well, me and Skipper have our differences! But he's a really nice guy!"

"Tell me, what's the difference between nice, and LOUD!"

"... So what if he yells alot?!"

"Yea, but what kind of things does he yell?" Marlene mumbled something under her breath. "I'm sorry, what was that"

"He called our kids stupid!" Arien's eyes widened with surprise, shock, and horror!

"WHAT?! I thought you were gunna say something like, 'He said we should have never been together', or something like that! I would have never expected that! Why on earth would anyone think these precious little angels were stupid! And if they have such an intelligent mother they certainly will never grow up to be stupid! Unless of corse they get any genes from their father's side!"

"Wow, you really like them that much!"

"You're darn right I do! And anyone who doesn't think the same is just an idiot!"

"Well then, how many times have you called Skipper an idiot now?"

"I dunno, like seven! But anyway, I don't really think Skipper deserves you! And as your friend, I advise a break-up!"

"And why is that?"

"Cause he's a jerk!"

"You can say that again!"

Meanwhile...

"Well, I guess we better crack on then!"

"Ok! So, when do you want to shoot me then?"

"Well, you could stay here for another night?"

"No."

"I didn't think so."

"You thought correctly!"

"I guess we may as well get it over with now!"

"But how will you know when to shoot me? Remember, they'll do the exact same thing!"

"Or not! In your world, you're married to Kowalski. In this world, you're not! In your world, I'm married to... Skipper..." Marlan shuddered at the thought. "In this world, I'm not!"

"So, are we gunna do this thing or not?!" They left Marlan's habitat and headed straight for the HQ.

Meanwhile...

"Well, should we send you back then?"

"I suppose so!" Marlene took Arien back to the HQ. (Ok, here's where things get messy. Cuz it's meant to be all dramatic-like, I'm gunna go back and forth the worlds without say meanwhile all the time! So if you get confused, just look at the person who I'm talking about, and then you'll find out which world I'm talkin' bout! K? Also, sometimes when I'm talking about the two same characters in both worlds I'll say stuff like: the Marlenes, meaning both Marlene and Marlan, or the Ariels, meaning both Ariel and Arien! And other stuff like that! K?)

The Marlenes stepped up to the platform. They couldn't see the other penguins anywhere! They placed their hands next to the ray.

"10, 9, 8, 7," The countdown had begun. "3, 2, 1, GO!" Slowly, their hands reached for the large red button to the side. The Ariels cringed, waiting for the zap! As the Marlenes slapped their paws on the button, there was a loud 'BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!!!!' and a flash of white light.

And then, they had disappeared..... The Marlenes at least!

DUNDUNDUN! WELL, THAR YA HAVE IT FOLKS! HOW WILL THEY GET OUT OF THIS PICKLE NOW?! ANYWAYZ, I THINK I MAY JUST GIVE U A LITTLE TREAT IN THE NEXT CHAPTER! ANYWAYZ, HAVE A COOL DAY!
