Private made his way back to the headquarters once he opened the hatch and went down in he saw Rico and Kowalski and Skipper looking staring at him, "Oh what's the matter? Am I late for something?" Private then smiled acting like he didn't know he was late.

"Private, if you wanted some time to talk to someone even if it is your friend, you need to at least let me know, I saw Rico come in and when you didn't show up." Skipper looked at Kowalski; Kowalski knew Skipper wanted him to tell him. "We were getting ready to search the zoo and if you weren't here, we were going to go to all our enemies and rescue you."

Private slightly giggled about how Kowalski explained, but he stopped himself when he saw Skipper about to give him a glare, Private stopped and sighed, "I know, I know, I should have made it here with Rico, but Skippah I ran into Belize on the way and…" Before Private could finish, they heard knocking on the hatch.

"Who could that be?" Skipper jumped up the ladder and opened the hatch, "Oh hi, Sorry too bother you, but I just wanted to talk to you about Private for a second." Belize said smiling at Skipper, which shocked Skipper a little, but he nodded and went up onto the ice floe. "Okay so what did you want to tell me about my soldier?"

Belize's smile didn't fade any at all, "Oh just keep a better eye on him, he almost ran me over with a cart and then took a fur coat of mine." Skipper looked at him shocked, Belize realized what he just said, "Look its fur that I have shed from myself, okay I cleaned it and stitched it together into a coat to give as a gift to a friend." Skipper kept a suspicious look at Belize after a few seconds Belize finally dropped the smile.

"Okay stop looking at me like I'm doing something, it bothers me a bit more then people sticking their noses where it doesn't belong, which I'm pretty sure you have already done." Belize turned around and jumped to the wall of the habitat and wrapped his tail around a rail.

"One, you won't find anything you are trying to find, so you might as well give up watching me. Two, your head should be fine in a short amount of time, and your memories should return by then, but before it does I suggest you take time to relax and not spy on me, thanks." Belize then smiled again, "avidese" then used his tail pulled himself out of the habitat and started to make his way to his habitat.

Skipper glared at him the whole time, starting to piece together, Belize must be a part of the attack on the two otters, but he wasn't for sure. Once he lost complete sight of Belize in the trees, Skipper went down the hatch into the headquarters and lost his balance and fell to the ground.

"Skippah are you alright?" Private said running over to Skipper and helping him up. "I'm fine Private, I think the fast fall made me lose some focus for a second there, but other then that I am fine." Skipper closed his eyes and relaxed a little opened them and he started to see things as different, the room looked larger, the television looked like it grew arms and legs, but was still motionless, he then looked at Private as his body suddenly started to melt the skin off leaving a penguin skeleton standing in the place of his friend.

Skipper started to use his flipper and wiped his eyes, then suddenly the skeleton started move and talk to him, he couldn't understand what was being said, he just saw it move and talk to him, but the words were just jumbled and he couldn't make any sense of it.

Private, Kowalski, and Rico was starting to get a bit worried about Skipper, but they didn't know how to help him, they noticed he couldn't understand them so they couldn't tell him to go and rest in the bunk, and whatever he was seeing really started to make him look like something is for sure wrong, they even seen him sweat, as the feathers got moist they started to stick to his body.

Kowalski then figured it would be best to test out his hypnotic machine, Kowalski grabbed the device and figured to test it out first, to ensure nothing will happen to Skipper and jumped up onto the ice floe and saw a pigeon flying by, Kowalski tested it on the pigeon and saw the effects.

It worked fine, it knocked the pigeon out cold, Kowalski smiled and then went back into the headquarters and used it on Skipper, once Skipper was out cold Kowalski and Private sighed as they picked him up getting a bit wet and putting Skipper in the bunk, after they did that, Kowalski and Private went into the water to make an excuse for being wet.

After they got out they saw a medium sized grey lemur and a small light brown lemur on the wall of their habitat looking a bit worried, "Guys, guys, hurry something is wrong with King Julian." The grey lemur jumped off the wall and started to run over to the lemur habitat once he knew that Kowalski jumped over the wall and started to go to the habitat, while Private went down into the headquarters and got Rico.

Once they get to the lemur habitat, "Okay Maurice what's going on?" Kowalski said, he saw Julian sitting in a throne lying down legs on one arm rest his body in the seat and his upper body on the other armrest. "Don't the sky spirits think that I am the kingliest of kings? Why would they make me feel like this?" Maurice walked over to the throne.

"Your majesty, I got someone to help you figure things out." Kowalski slapped himself in the face and then turned to leave, Julian got up, "Oh no, why did you go get the fishy penguins? They can't help the king of kings." Kowalski stopped and turned around. "You think we can't help you? Well for an attitude like that we are going to help you to prove you wrong."

Julian laughed a bit, "What do you think you can do smarty one?" Kowalski walked over to Julian and started to make examinations "Lets see now, fur seems to be soft and fluffy, no missing patches, no discoloration." He lifted up Julian's arms "Muscle function seems to be functional, skeletal system intact, no notches, no bumps of any sort." Kowalski then pulled out a small flashlight and started to flash it in Julian's eyes.

"Sensory stimuli seems to be functioning properly, in overall I see nothing wrong with Julian…" Julian sighed as he slumped back in the chair and stared at the sky. "Well maybe a few things, but physical or mental illness he's mostly normal… Only thing I can't examine at the time is his emotional status."

Kowalski looked at Private, "Hey Private mind going to HQ and get me a few things?" Kowalski started to write down on a clipboard he pulled out of thin air and gave him the sheet after folding it up. "Sure thing K'walski." Private started to make his way sliding to his habitat and jumped over the rail hitting the edge of the ice floe and almost falling into the water.

Private pulled up at the last second stopping him from falling into the water and sighed then made his way to the hatch opened it and dropped in. Skipper was still out cold and lying down in the bunk, he saw Rico sitting with Miss Perky petting her and brushing her hair. "Rico, mind helping me look for a few things?" Rico nodded.

Rico put down Mrs. Perky and walked over to Private, "Okay here's the list, umm well, I guess that's all." Private then gave the list to Rico, Rico just went around looking for the items on the list.

(Back at the Lemur habitat)

"So what did you send Private to get?" Maurice asked looking a little quizzically at Kowalski, Kowalski laughed, "Oh don't worry I just didn't want the little guy to hear me say a few things to Julian." Maurice looked at him confused, Kowalski then went over to Julian and started to say various sentences in his ear.

(Back in HQ)

Private was in Kowalski's lab looking for the Julian shaped bottle with an unknown liquid in it, Private saw four of them, sitting on a shelf, Private went over to them and looked at each one, other then the colors of the liquids they all looked and bubbled exactly the same.

"Umm, uh which one, which one?" Private looked at all the bottles and then looked behind him at Rico checking if everything was off the list, Private shrugged and grabbed the bottle with a purple hue, "Okay Rico that should be everything, am I off?" Rico dug around in the bag. After a few seconds Rico pulled his head out and mumbled 'all clear'

Private smiled and started to climb up the steps, "Okay, take good care of Skippah Rico." Private then jumped out of the hatch and covered it with their food bowl, he then looked around to make sure that there was no one watching him, as he made his way out of the habitat and started his way to the lemur habitat.

Private was about half way to the lemur habitat when he had a cold chill and felt someone was watching him, he scanned around the scene, nothing was there no people, for some strange reason Joey, Badda, Bing, Becky, Stacy, no one was out in the open of their habitats.

Private just chuckled to himself a little, "Ah this is just my imagination playing tricks on me, I think it might be something completely logical." Private then started to laugh as he was making his way to the lemur habitat.

A shadow figure was sitting on the rock Skipper was using as a look out perch "Well, Private, you are more naive then many think, this makes things much more easier." The shadow smiled as it grabbed a blunt object from behind the rock and some feathers.

The figure started to make its way over to the badgers habitat, the shadow then being cautious slowly entered their habitat and then once it knew it didn't make noise the shadow figure started to make its way up to the cave entrance of the habitat.

"Hello anyone here?" the shadow said. "Who's there? We are kind of busy do you mind coming back later?" a female's voice was heard. "Umm I would, but I would like to talk to one of you if you don't mind?" the shadow said. "Okay hang on a second my sister Becky will be there shortly."

The shadow smiled that at least it can take them out separately making things more easily for it, the shadow swung the blunt object back and got ready to smash it into the head of its next victim. A brownish orange badger started to make its way up to the entrance of the cave.

"Hel-" the badger didn't see anyone there, she went all around the habitat and couldn't find anyone there, "Hey Stacey, are you sure that there was someone here wanting us?" a few seconds of silence filled the cave. "Stacey your not going to prank me this year." Becky looked around the cave was completely silent, not a single thing was making a sound, not even the water filter giving the badgers fresh water to drink.

"Okay Stacey this is not funny any more where are y-" suddenly she stopped and froze at the most horrific sight she saw, she saw her sister sitting in a chair in a pose with blood and feathers all around her. Becky ran over to her and tapped her gently at first, "Stacey…" she said as she then poked her again this time a little harder, but the light yellow badger didn't stir, suddenly Becky noticed that she looked more pale then she normally does.

Becky quickly ran out of the cave as fast as she could yelling, "Help, help something attacked Stacey, please can someone help, I think she's very near death, please." The badger then saw a flash of white jump in the habitat. "What's all this screaming about?" suddenly Maurice and Mort were there, "We heard screaming, what is going on?" they all sat and looked at Becky now sitting on the ground shaking.

Belize walked over to her, "Hey, hey, hey its okay calm down, we are going to help" Belize's voice soothed her a bit, Becky was stable for the time being. While Maurice and Mort ran into the cave and looked around, they didn't find anything but Stacey's lifeless body sitting in the chair.

After Maurice and Mort came out, Belize spun Becky away from the two and they silently told Belize Stacey was dead. Belize nodded "Okay no one was in there, now are you calmed down enough to tell me who you are and what happened?" Becky sighed "I'm Becky and in there is…" She started to cry, "Look everything is going to be fine okay, tell me what happened Becky."

"We were busy doing chores, when I heard my sister yelling to someone at the entrance of the cave, I didn't hear anything." Belize nodded and started to memorize word for word what she was saying and then he pulled up a notepad and wrote everything said down.

"Okay then?" Belize said, Becky looked around and had the image of her sister in the chair and started to freak out a little again, Belize grabbed Becky and started to hug her and patted her back gently trying to calm her down, it was working, Becky stopped her frantic movement.

"There, there, we will figure out who did this, okay?" Becky just gave Belize a tighter grip, Belize sighed "Okay you will be fine, you think you will be fine here by yourself while we take your sister to the vet?" Becky looked around and then stared Belize in the face and shook her head 'No' Belize sighed.

"Okay would you like to stay with someone until we figure out what happened, and ensure that its safe for you to come back?" Becky nodded, then looked at Belize, "Mind if I stay with you?" Belize looked at her a little shocked, but he knew she been through a lot in the short amount of time.

"Okay, I think I can make you something to sleep in, come on." Belize started to make his way to his habitat, but Becky was still wrapped around his waist and she started to cry soaking his torso in tears.

"Okay, stop the crying this fur does not do well when wet." Becky stopped crying but didn't let go of him. "Thank you, now lets go." Belize and Becky left the habitat and made their way to his habitat.

Once Belize and Becky made it to the habitat, Belize jumped onto a tree and climbed up it to the top, grabbed several leaves, once Belize couldn't hold any more he jumped down and started to bundle them up like a bed.

After Belize was finished he walked over to Becky standing around the edge of the habitat "Okay, I made you a bed, it's a little in the forest, but you will be safe there, and the zoo keepers won't wonder why your in here." Becky nodded, "Thank you very much Mr.…" Belize kept his paws over Becky's eyes, "The names Belize." Becky smiled. "Well thanks then, Belize, you are being kind and generous." Belize smiled.

"Yeah I can't let anyone have painful emotions, it hurts me just as much as it hurts them, I know it may seem I'm stone hearted, but I council the victims of any kind of trauma, and people hardly ever get to a sensitive side…" Belize nearly tripped over a rock, he then figured make an accident happen, and see what would happen.

Belize stops for a second, "Hang on a second, is your eye's closed?" Becky nodded, Belize turned the direction of her face away from the bed and removed his hand, he then ran over to the bed and prepared it to catch Becky.

Belize ran back to Becky and covered her eyes again, "Okay sorry about that I ju-" before Belize could finish he acted like he tripped over a rock and he tossed Becky into the bed, Becky screamed for a second thinking she was going to have a hard landing on the ground, but she didn't feel anything, she looked around her and saw the bed was angled to catch her, and she then looked at the path Belize and her were walking and saw no rock.

"Y-you threw me into the bed, "Belize looked a little guilty about it, but Becky got up and grabbed Belize and gave him a kiss, Belize sat there frozen while Becky was kissing him, after five seconds Becky pulled away and laid down in the bed and yawned getting ready to rest.

Belize sat frozen 'She- she kissed me, oh no this is not good, dang it, dang it, dang it.' Belize moved and wiped off his lips, he saw Becky was laying down sleeping, Belize then walked away staring off into space.

A/N And there it is ( Yes I know I didn't say what happened to Stacey it is coming next chapter, and the romance, eh don't worry, there wont be much in the story I just wanted to have this in here because hardly any of my stories have a cutesy romance scene of much if any sort.)
