Disclaimer: I don't own Happy Feet or any of it's characters. Look at link in profile for the leopard seal clip in the movie if you feel you have no idea what I'm talking about.

Regular Note: Really the links are there, along with part of the skua scene...if you're interested.

I initially never owned the soup Ramen, but my sister insisted that I name a character after it...God! I'm hungry!!!


Part 1

Chapter 19

The alien took Whisper out of the room, followed by the one holding Leo. As they talked in that weird language, Whisper caught sight of the door to the skua room. That's where she needs to get to.

Leo gave her a friendly wink and she smiled.

"I'll be there." she told him quietly. Leo nodded as best he could with the alien holding his beak shout.

Soon the aliens went their seperate ways while Whisper was biding her time. She tried to memorize the way to the door.

She wasn't crazy about going into a room full of skuas, but if it's the only way to get home, she'll take the risk. Besides, Leo wouldn't let anything happen to her, right?

But how to open the door...she was stuck on that, but she soon found a solution. She saw the alien holding her press a button and the door opened. To get back out, it did the same code for every door. Whisper memorized that too just in case.

Now to get there. She already knew what to do. She waited until the alien opened another door.

"I'm sorry. I like you, but I wanna go home." With that, she bit the hand that held her as hard as she could. The alien yelped and let her go.

She grabbed it's leg clothes and tripped the alien into the room and the door closed between them.

Without wasting time, Whisper shot off towards the skua room. She just hope she won't get caught.

Rojas was sleeping near the door, Mumble cautiously taking a swim. He had gained the confedence to swim only when the seal was asleep. And this time, Mumble kept his distance.

Suddenly, the seal snapped his head up, instantly alert. Mumble immediatly ran to his safe haven while Rojas pressed his ear against the door, listening.

"What is it?" Mumble asked.

"Whisper's coming. I'll reconize those footsteps anywhere." Rojas replied with a smile. And Mumble couldn't help smiling too.

---

Whisper was lucky so far. No aliens appeared to spoil the plan. Just a few more doors then-

"Whisper." a voice went from behind a door. She instantly remembered the voice and and skid to a stop.

"Daddy?" she called, walking to the door in question.

"Whisper. What are you doing?" Rojas asked.

"We're going to set everybody free so we can all go home." she informed.

"We? Who's with you?" Rojas continued to ask.

"He's not with me right now, but this was all his idea. His name's Leo and he's waiting for me. I'll be back."

Before Rojas could respond again, she continued on her way. She's in a hurry. The quicker she gets going, the sooner she'll be home and happy.

Target door sighted, she went faster. When she arrived, she hopped as high as she could. Just missed the button! Maybe if she had a running start.

She backed up a bit then ran up to the button and jumped. She got it! Barely...but she still got it. The door opened and she walked in. The light came on and the door closed behind her. She laughed in delight.

She continued walking and came to another door. It opened automatically and she went through. She found herself in a room full of skuas. The door closed behind her, and she'll need the code to open it.

There must be at least a dozen skuas in here and they looked at Whisper and flew towards her with deadly intent.

Whisper backed herself into a corner.

"Leo!" she yelled, covering her eyes. In an instant, her black and white friend placed himself between her and the predatory birds.

"Back off. Dis is da Flipper Boid I told youse about." he said to the group, obviously the leader of things. They settled down on the ground, looking at Whisper and considering her.

"She looks too big. You actually dink she'll fit?" one questioned. Leo nodded.

"Yeah. She's just puffy. Watch." Leo turned to Whisper and picked her up in his beak. She went limp. She didn't know what Leo was doing, but she'll just have to trust him.

He fluttered to a water pool, the others following. Leo glanced at them and then carefully dipped Whisper into the pool, only for a second. He instantly pulled her out and set her down.

"See. She's da right size." Leo pointed out. Whisper shook herself until she was all fluffy again. "Alright, kid, listen carefully. Beyond dat door you just went drough is da power ding. All you need to do is go in and disable everyting. Got dat?"

"Okay." she said, nodding.

"Youse know the code out?" he asked. Whisper nodded. "Good. I'll give ya a boost."

Leo lowered himself and gestured for Whisper to hop on. She obeyed and hung on as the skua flew to the button panel and hovered in front of it.

Whisper hit the buttons and the door opened.

"Dere ya go." Leo said grinning. He flew to the secind door and the other skuas kept the first door from closing. "Whisper, tell me dat code."

Whisper pointed them out. "Why you ask?"

"To make sure you don't disable da doors. We need dem to work. We just have to knock all da others out, especially da light. Since da aliens can't see in da dark."

Whisper nodded and Leo set her down before going back to the panel.

"Where is it?" she asked, looking around.

"It's dat square ding. Dere's a hole big enough for you to crawl in." Leo explained, pointing a wing at it. Whisper ran to it and squeezed through and found wires all over the inside.

"These stringy thingies are attached to something." she informed.

"Pull dem off, but don't bite drough. Your still a little wet and we don't want you to get shocked." Whisper nodded and pulled one off.

She heard the door open and then close. Leo tested the door and it still worked. But nothing happened.

"Are you sure bout dis?" a skua asked Leo.

"Yeah. Da power probably went out somewhere else. Keep goin Flipper Boid."

Whisper pulled another. Silence.

"Dat's da door. Put it back in." Leo told her. She did as she was told. "Now yank da rest out."

Whisper pulled at all the other wires and when she was done, she headed towards the exit hole. It was kinda dark outside due to the blackout, but she can see enough to keep going.

But her claws scratched a wire and a horrible jolt went through her body.

She screamed at the intense pain.

"Whisper!" She heard someone shout and a winged thing appeared at the hole.

"Daddy?" she managed to mutter. Then her vision went black.


Cool. I wish I could go to the zoo. Last time I did was years ago. I need a life...Skuas rule!

Preview:

Does Whisper survive the shock of her life? Well, Leo decides to let Rojas know...how will the seal react to the accident?
