Rupert was with his wife telling her about the plan against Buck . The female didn't agree with this plan , she didn't think right killing the penguin to make Buck Suffer . " I don't understand why you want to do that . " She said crossing her flippers and looking at him . "
" Because I need . " Rupert replied very angry because she didn't understand his anger . " Buck ruined my life and I need to make him pay "
" By I thought you like Skipper . " She told him very confused . .
" I never liked this stupid penguin . He's a dull " He answered her question . " I approached him because I had to watch him . "
" Yeah , but if it weren't you , he would never be a leader as he is now . " She said to him . " Admit , he is good at he does , and this is because of you . "
" You're right . " He admitted looking at down . " Even though I am going to destroy his life . I hate Skipper . "
" You hate Buck " She said very angry at his husband . " You can't hate someone that you saw since he is a chick , you can't hate someone that you helped . Rupert you hate him because he is your enemy's son , but he doesn't have fault . "|
" I doesn't matter Lya . " He shouted angry at his wife . " Buck killed my other wife and because of him my son is deficient . He deserve that his son be dead . "
" You're a bad Rupert . " lya cried and went to the door . " Remember the moments you spent with him , and think well about what you are doing . " And she left the big penguin alone . The penguin lay on his bed thinking about what Lya told him .
Flashback
Antarctica 1990
Rupert was watching Skipper alone , the chick penguin was playing on the snow . The big penguin wanted to approach the penguin but at the same time he was afraid of doing that . He didn't know what the penguin would do if he saw him . " Do it Rupert . It's just a innocent chick . " He spoke to himself watching Skipper playing happily and innocently .
" Hey . " Rupert called the penguin after taking courage to talk to him .
" Hi . " Skipper answered stopping playing . He approached the big penguin and then he asked . " Who are you ? "
" I am a neighbor " He replied the penguin .
" I've never seen you before . " Skipper talked back to him .
" Because I am new here . " Rupert answered laughing . " I'd like to know you more . My name is Rupert and yours ? "
" Skipper . " He answered the penguin
" Nice to meet you Skipper . " Rupert said shaking Skipper's flippers . " I see you are reading about Buck Rockgut . " He said looking at the magazine . It was amazing the fact Skipper was reading about his father without knowing he really was his father .
" I can't read . " Skipper said . " But I like him and I want to be an agent like him .
" Really ? I train agents if you want I can train you . " Rupert offered .
" I am five years old " Skipper answered facing the penguin . " I can't be an agent . "
" Early is that you start " Rupert said smiling at the penguin .
Skipper thought a little , then he smiled looking at big penguin and answered . " I accept . "
" Okay we start tomorrow . " He said shaking Skipper's flipper again .
" Skipper . " A male penguin called him . " It's time to lunch . "
" I am going daddy . " Skipper yelled back . " It was nice to meet you Rupert . I hope you tomorrow . " He said going his home to lunch .
End Flashback .
Rupert continued remembering the moments with Skipper . Lya was right , Skipper would never have been a leader if it weren't him , but the own penguin helped himself to become a leader too . Even chick Skipper was intelligent and interested compared the other older penguins . Rupert knew he was going to be a good leader and he was now . The two had a good relationship , sometimes Rupert forgot his revenge against Buck Rockgut , but Skipper always saw a magazine about him and his plan came back . He hated himself for wanting to hurt Skipper , but he wanted to make Buck suffer and he didn't care if he had to hurt the penguin that he had a great affection . Much times he had more affection for Skipper than he had for his son . He never wanted a deficient child , and Skipper represented the child that he never had , a child full of life , a child who didn't need any help . He wanted revenge . If he could not have a normal child , Buck couldn't have a child too . "
" I am sorry Lya , I didn't want to hurt him , but I have to do it . " He said looking at Lya picture .
