"First things first! My revenge!" The dark shape drew a knife from behind him and reached for Private.
"NO!" Skipper jumped forward and shoved his soldier back, pecking his hand.
"I went to Denmark to find him. I fought against zombies and an army to get to him! I killed a psycho voo-doo lemur to rescue Private! And I did not do all of that to have you take him away now!"
"Uhm, who´s that?" Blue asked.
"His name is Officer X." Max whimpered.
Rico coughed up a bazooka. "X!" He growled, putting his flipper on the trigger.
Officer X hadn´t spent his time around penguins for nothing. He pulled out his tazer and lunged forward. He flung out his arm and smacked the tazer against the bazooka, causing it to fire into a different direction, while kicking Skipper away.
"Lemurs, Private and cat stay back!" Skipper yelled, getting up and jumping on top of Officer X, clinging to his back.
Rico coughed up nun-chucks and moved toward the officer.
X suddenly started running backwards.
Skipper had no idea what he was doing, until X slammed against a tree, squishing the flat-headed penguin against it.
"SKIPPAH!" Private shouted, his voice getting carried away by the chilly, stormy wind.
X chuckled in amusement before grabbing his tazer and going after Rico.
"Now to you, parrot penguin!"
Rico stopped. "Parrot penguin?" He asked, not knowing if he should be offended.
"Yes, your beak looks like a parrot´s beak." X said.
The scarred bird touched his beak. "Is not!" He argued.
The other used the moment when he wasn´t paying attention to tazer him thoroughly.
Rico dropped to the floor like a sack of coals. Literally.
Skipper picked himself up from the ground and tried to stand. Black spots clouded his vision and he fell back down.
"Skippah!" Private shouted again, but his voice was far away.
Officer X turned and smirked at the rest.
Private was about to shout orders, but Blue stepped forward.
"Agent Ted and Agent Martha, attack!" He shouted, raising his hands and making the scene change completely. Officer X found himself in a pink tutu, on stage while the Nutcracker played. "Cliché." A guy in the audience muttered. "Shh!" His wife shushed him. X ripped out his tazer and growled. "You can´t hide! I don´t know how you´re doing it, but I-" He was cut off by some guys dancing in, in black clothes and trying to pick him up. "Get your hands off me!" X roared. He spotted a boy in blue clothes sitting next to another boy who was taking care of two passed out guys. "There! I see through your disguise!" The officer yelled, knocking the black guys down and jumping into the crowd. People screamed, then faded into nothing. X grabbed the blue boy and began chocking him. The scene faded back to the stormy park.
"Put my nephew down!" Ted yelled angrily. He lunged forward.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a trash can ran forward and punched X down.
"What the-?!" Officer X stopped shouting as trash tumbled into his mouth.
Ted waved his paw at a bench which ran forward and re-positioned itself on top of X, so that the crazy officer couldn´t get free.
Private grabbed Skipper and Rico and dragged them behind a tree.
Officer X roared in rage and slammed his fist into the bench, splitting it in half.
Ted winced as splitters flew everywhere.
He waved his paws and several inanimate objects, bringing them to life and trying to trap or fight against the officer. That was his power, bringing inanimate objects to life. Everything from to a paperclip to the Empire State Building.
X was let out an animalistic snarl and destroyed everything that came into his path.
"Something is seriously wrong with this guy!" Blue shouted over the storm.
"Martha!" Ted yelled.
His wife sprang into action. She put her paw on the ground. Immediately, small stones stuck to X. He tried to rip them off, but then didn´t bother. They were too small to bother him anyway. Martha kept putting rocks, stray nails and coins onto him.
"What is she doing?" Private asked Blue. The other shrugged. "I don´t know, but come on!" He leapt forward and changed scenes rapidly, confusing the human. Private got some marbles from Rico and threw them at Officer X´s feet, knocking him off balance.
"MARTHA NOW!" Ted shouted and ducked into cover.
Martha muttered something, then drew an invisible line from the sky to X, then grabbed Blue and Private, ushering them under a tree. Ted helped the others under the tree.
X stood up and at that moment, the small magnetic things that were stuck to him attracted lightning. A bright flash blinded everyone for a moment.
When their visions cleared, they saw a smoking X slumped unconscious against the grass. Private grabbed rope from Rico and with Max tied X up.
"Okay…that was just W-O-W!" Max gasped. "That was sooo cool!" Blue exclaimed. "We have to do it again sometime!"
"Maybe…" Martha chuckled.
Ted cleaned the inanimate objects up and put them back into their right place.
Skipper limped up to Private. "Good job soldier!" He rasped.
"Thanks. I´m so glad you´re alright!" Private hugged him, then reared back as his leader yelped. "Skippah!"
"It´s o-okay, Private. I th-think I broke my ribs."
Rico coughed up a skateboard. "Lie down." He commanded.
While they were taking care of everyone´s injuries, Max grabbed X´s cell phone and quickly dialed in the police´s phone number. He knew it by heart, after a life on the streets.
"Come on, let´s get to the zoo quickly." Martha said, pushing Skipper forward. Rico offered to do it for her.
"Kowalski!" The genius was in his lab with Marlene, when they heard the shout. "Pr-Private? GUYS!" The two rushed up on deck. Kowalski scowled as he saw Blue. "What´s he doing here?"
Blue walked over to him. "Uhm, Kowalski? I want to say sorry…"
Kowalski gazed at him suspiciously. "I´ll explain." Private offered.
"Sit down." Skipper told Marlene and Kowalski. "You´ll need to!"
After the whole story was done, all the two could do is stare.
"So yeah…I guess I was pretty stupid." Blue chuckled nervously.
"It´s okay, we´re all friends now!" Private said.
"Wow…" Marlene shook her head. "You guys are just…"
"Weird?"
"No…that doesn´t even describe the half of you!"
Kowalski suddenly stood up and helped Marlene up. "Skipper? We have to tell you something."
Skipper´s smile faded a bit into a startled look. "What is it?"
"Marlene and I…are a couple now."
"…"
"On congratulations!" Private said and hugged them.
Skipper´s startled look dropped and he smirked pleased.
After everyone got cleaned up, had food and rest, the lemurs parted from the rest of the gang.
"I have old friends here in New York that I want to visit." Martha explained.
Blue rushed forward and hugged Private. "Thank you Private for everything! I´m sorry for all the trouble I´ve caused!"
Private hugged him back. "I´ll write you!"
Blue beamed and followed his relatives out. "Bye guys! I´ll miss you!"
"So Drakus is really dead?" Kowalski asked. "Yes. He had a crack going right through his skull! And probably broke every other bones in his pathetic body!" Skipper said proudly.
The rest of the week was full or R&R. Rest and Reunion.
"We´re all together again! That should be celebrated!" Skipper said, raising his glass full of fish champagne.
