A quick little penguin chapter, takes place a few years into the future

"Penguins, it's time we begin the expedition for the one of the kind rare, the fork and knife of the fish lord..."

"It's Poseidon, Skipper"

"Po Di, whatever, in the quest for the world's greatest fish" Skipper instructed the eager penguins.

"To do so, we shall travel to a hidden temple, hidden somewhere in the world of Olympian Manhattan, a nice place, if you don't mind greek things..."

"Like the gods"

"Private!"

"Sorry"

"Penguins, lets rool!"

A bit later

The penguins appeared in a flash of bright light, in a shabby part of a poor city.

"Kowalski, location on world of the greek gods?"

"Approximatly, somewhere in the port of Cape Town, South Africa!"

"A little too close to Madagascar for my liking, but okay, Penguins, Rico ready the Hep 50!" Rico spat up a tiny little toy submarine with a H on it. The ship landed in the water, enlarging into a submarine.

"Ol Hepster still has it, prepare to board!" they all hopped inside the submarine, as it descended into the atlantic.

"Radar!"

"Check"

"Communications!"

"Rodger"

"Various weapons of mass destruction"

"MUWHAAA!"

"Good, lock onto corirdinates" they zoomed off.

5 minutes later

"Rico, coffee"

"BLETCH"

"Good, I like a strong coffee"

5 more minutes later

"Skipper, we have reading on the radar, 3 to be precise, and their coming in fast" Private yelled.

"Any idea on what they are"

"Great Testla Coil! Its a, a, a....." three large seals came into view around the water craft.

"Leopard seals, but were far north from their maximum range, right?" Skipper asked worried.

"Yes, they are never found this far north" Kowalski said nervously.

"Look, they have a mark on them" Private pointed, as a seal crashed into the submarine. It rolled a little, as they caught a mark on their skin.

JH

"JH, do we know a JH?" Skipper asked. Kowalski got out his abyscus.

"Let's see, JT, JDOG, JH, wait are they James Hiller's?" Private shook his head, as a seal rammed into the watercraft again.

"James can't get a Iphone to work, much less control a bunch of seals"

"True, Rico!" the trigger happy penguin pressed a button, as a electrical charge flew out of the vessel, hitting a seal. The seal exploded, revealing a metal body.

"Robot Leopard seals!" Skipper fell out of his seat.

"It's a freak of nature, RICO DESTROY THEM!" Kowalski said in a tissy. Rico hit the button repetitively, and electrical blasts struck the remaining robots, as well as cause large explosions in the waters above.

"Skipper, we have a U.S navy submarine coming in at, well its coming fast!"

"DIVE!" He yelled, as the submarine banked a sharp down, into a very dark trench.

In the trench, 5 minutes later

"Skipper, I CAN"T SEE, I CAN"T THINK!" Kowalski's voice hollered.

"Rico, glow-stick!"

"BLETCH" a green light illuminated the vessel.

"Good, now lets not panic" Skipper said calmly.

"Skipper, we have a hit!" Private pointed. At the bottom of the chasm was a ancient Greek temple.

"The coordinates, we've found the fork and knife!" the vessel landed inside the temple, inside a air bubble?

"Rico, tell me this place isn't filled with air" Kowalski looked around.

"Na ah"

"But we asked Poseidon himself, he said this temple was water logged, this isn't right...."

"No, its very right" a man said, walking into view, holding a large golden pair of a fork and a knife, embodied with images of tridents. He wore a dark traveling cloak, with a dark cape. He had a evil smirk

"Who are you?" Skipper demanded. He turned, showing a a green shoulder guard, with JH on it.

"Your JH!"

"Legally, its Johnny, Johnny Hurricane. Now be gone birds!" he took out a star wars like pistol, and blasted, energy bolts hitting the floor as the penguins scattered.

"Give us the silver ware, gold ware, whatever, of Poseidon!" Skipper yelled, taking out his penguin shaped blaster. He fired, as Johnny used the knife to cut the blast clean in half.

"Rico!" Rico spat out a flamethrower, and sent a torrent of flames at Johnny, whose cape got cindered. He fired his gun, stopping a few sneak attack attempts by the other penguins.

"My cape! You, you thing!" he yelled. He then took a staff, embrodied with a marking of a scythe and a clock and charged. Rico spat a boomerang out, tossing it at Johnny. He smashed it in half with his hand, before grabbing Rico firmly. The penguins all charged at him, but he tripped them all, causing them to crashed into a heap against a pillar.

"It is my mission to generate chaos, you little heroic birds. The opposite of heroing. And here, you try to stop my plan to destroy all fishing. I think you need a demonstration of what happens to those who get in my way!" he touched the end of the staff to Rico. A blue static covered the poor penguin.

"RICO!" Private cried as the penguins tackled Johnny, his staff falling alongside him. The went to help Rico out, who had the utensils. But he was aging, his feathers were turning grayer, and grayer. His beak got duller and duller. He got a humped back, then he fell limp.

"He, Killed, RICO!" Kowalski was too shocked to speak.

"Well, I'd love to stay for the funeral, but I have things to do, as I celebrate the first dead hero, of the coming of the old order!" he vanished in a portal of darkness. The air bubble broke, as they ran inside the ship.

"Rico" Private cried.

"It's finally happened" Skipper shook his head. "That Johnny's going to PAY!"

"Right, Skipper we must start the project, Penguin Beyond!"

"Kowalski..."

"What's penguin beyond?" Private asked.

"See, we, decided to begin the process of cloning a new team of penguins, as I already feel age in my bones, and Rico... well it's to make sure our skills go to the next generation" he held the knife and fork.

"And may this relics, be the finest memory, of RICO!"

"FOR RICO!"

Elsewhere

Johnny Hurricane approached a dark hole, somewhere in a creepy old castle, the world called Conflicters Casle.

"My lord, I may have failed to destroy the taste of fish, but I have brought forth the first death of Kronitis, the rapid aging power you besessed into this staff. Rico, is dead"

"This, is better" a icy, voice rather like scrapping rocks, commented "Yes, one hero down. And chaos builds. Once we gain enough, I will be free of my prison. But first, you must convince Tonto about his time project, by hiding the barbtrix. We must play him, like a instrument, and take out a few more heroes while we're at it"

"Yes, lord of time"
