Hey everyone, sorry about the late update, I just have 9/11 on my mind right now and it's just been rough. But I'm ready to continue updating. Glad to see you're on the cliff, if only I had a rope! Sorry, you'll have to stay up there.

Goody50: It's alright, and don't remind Gary of his past, it depresses him.

Cuddles140: Good idea, I'll try to see where I could fit that.

Zanerexn41: Don't ask.

Lolumroller: Lol, he could try!

Guest: Done with what?

DriftedDaisy: YOU MEAN MY GARY BEAR!

Now at this time of day, lots of debris was floating on the surface. A lot of titanium pallets for anyone to float on, and even a few small wooden racks or small pieces of driftwood. But there was no one on any of the driftwood pallets or the titanium pallets. All of them were empty. Instead you only hear the splashing and gasping of a penguin swimming nearby. Dot, to be exact was indeed that penguin. She had on her fish costume and was swimming pretty rapidly.

"Almost…..there…." she said taking small short breaths with every stroke. Soon she could no longer swim.

"What?! I could've sworn I saw something in the distance." She groaned as she floated on the surface. Her stomach began to growl. "Oh, I'm so hungry. Why didn't I have anything to eat before drowning!?" she said to herself. (Wow, Dot.)

Dot was tired after swimming for what seemed like hours she began floating in the water. "I'm too tired to continue, I'll just rest here for a while. I wonder what Gary did to get out of this thing." She chuckled.

(Continuation of last flashback)

It was close to Halloween and a little purple penguin watched eagerly as an older penguin began putting the final touches on a Halloween costume.

"Is it done yet? Is it done yet? Is it done yet? Is it? Is it? Is it?" she shouted eagerly as she jumped up and down.

"Calm down, Dottie," said the penguin's mother, "I'm almost done!" she stitched up one more hole and it was complete. She held up the costume to Dot and showed it to her. "So?" she asked as Dot examined the costume.

"It's great!" she said hugging her mom. "I love it so much! Can I wear it now?!" she asked

"Well, I don't know if that's a good idea." Her mom said.

Dot pouted. "Why not?"

"Because, do you want other penguins making fun of you because you're wearing your Halloween costume too early?" she asked

Dot refused to answer.

"Well?" she asked impatiently.

Dot sighed and rolled her eyes. "I guess you're right."

Her mom gave her a hug and a light peck. "I know I am, now go take your new costume and put it in the closet."

Dot nodded and waddled upstairs to her room. While she was in her room, she was curious with what her costume could do because she told her dad to hook it up with special equipment that an EPF agent, like her father, could have. So she took the costume out of her closet and was about to put it on until her mom burst into her room.

"Dottie, I'm going to the store, please behave and remember to put that costume in your closet." She said closing the door.

Dot nodded a response and listened closely for the sound of a door closing. Once she heard the door close, she put her costume on and looked at herself in the mirror. Her costume looked like a simple purple suit with a bunch of pockets in it as well as a little bowtie on it as well.

"It's so pretty." She said as she began patting the dress down for any special switches or buttons. The only thing she found on the dress was a tag on the side. With her curiosity intact, she tore the tag off and her white dress transformed her into a polar bear. Dot was amazed. "Woah! This costume is amazing! I look just like an EPF agent! And a polar bear." Then Dot stopped cheering. "But what am I supposed to do with an outfit that only turns into a polar bear?" she asked herself as she pulled off the tag and was prepared to take off the suit. Before fully taking it off, she saw a bunch of boy penguins crowding around what looked like a smaller penguin. Dot wanted to see more so she waddled out the door with her costume still on.

"Aww look, Scary Gary looks scared." Said one of the bullies

"Well then maybe his real name is Scaredy Gary!" said another bully which caused all the others to laugh at that remark.

"Oh no!" Dot thought. "I have to help him!" she said pulling the tag on her purple suit and transforming into a polar bear. "This polar bear certainly came in handy after all." she said to herself as she jumped into the crowd of boys and began to roar. The boys ran away from the "polar bear" and Gary looked up to see who it was. Dot turned back into her purple suit and extended her flipper.

"Are you ok?" she asked

Gary nodded and nervously took her flipper so she could help him get to his feet.

"My name is Dot, nice to meet you. I heard your name was Gary?"

Gary nodded.

"That's a nice name." she said as she and Gary talked on the way home.

"Well, it was nice talking to you." She said running home. "Bye!" she was greeted by her dad standing in the doorway.

"Didn't your mom tell you not to wear that outside?" he asked her

Dot gave a nervous smile. "Oops." She said sheepishly.

Her dad let out a small smile too. "Let's just get that back in your room before your mom finds out."

"Yeah!" Dot said as they waddled to her room.

"Are you excited to start school tomorrow?" he asked

"It's a new school, I'm a little nervous." She admitted

"Don't worry about a thing; you're going to be a great secret agent so who cares what others think?" he reassured

Dot smiled. "You're right dad!"

"Good, now let's get you to bed." He said picking her up and taking her to her room.

(I'm just going to continue the rest of her backstory here instead of flashing back.)

In the morning, Dot was excited to start school, so she brushed her teeth and took a nice clean shower and put on her best suit. Today would be a great day. She waddled downstairs where her mom made waffles.

"Those smell good!" she said sitting down.

"They sure are." Said her dad with his mouth full of waffles

She giggled at him as her mom wiped his beak off with a napkin. "I thought I only had one child to take care of, not two."

Dot's dad frowned. "Waah, mommy's being mean to me!" he joked. The whole family shared a laugh at the joke. "It sounds like your bus is on its way, you better get going."

"Oh yeah!" Dot said jumping out of her seat. She hugged her mom and dad goodbye and waddled onto the bus, sitting in the first empty seat she saw. The whole bus ride went uneventful and they soon arrived at the school.

She waddled over to her locker and began putting stuff in it. When she closed her locker, a group of girls waddled up to her.

"Excuse me, sir?" giggled one of the girls.

Dot turned around.

"Oh, my bad, I couldn't tell what gender you were with that suit on. Where'd you get it from? The all boy's clothing store?!" All the girls began to laugh.

Dot glared at the girls and waddled away to her classroom, ignoring the hurtful comments. She sat in a seat and little did she know those same girls were in her class.

"Hey Amber, be lucky you get to sit near a cute guy." Giggled the same girl who teased her first

Dot didn't even turn to face her.

"Oops, my bad again! That's still the same old weirdo!" They all giggled some more.

Throughout the whole day, Dot was teased because of how she dressed and was even shoved in a locker. She silently cried to herself in the locker then heard a banging from the locker beside hers. It was Gary.

"G-gary?" She sniffed.

Gary nodded. "Yeah, it's me."

"You're talking!" she gasped.

"Yeah, I guess I am. I apologize for how those girls were treating you; it was not right at all." Gary said

"It's ok, it's not like you sent them." Both of them laughed at that remark. "Wait a minute, aren't you claustrophobic?"

"Well, yes, I am, but because of my abnormally small size, I'm able to fit into this locker without having a nervous breakdown." He said

"Oh, well that's cool, I guess." She said

"I guess so." Gary said

Throughout the rest of the school day/year those 2 spent most of those school years stuffed in a locker, but they didn't mind because they were all happy because they were all with each other. When it came to graduating, they were both relocated to Club Penguin where they ended up being separated but still remained lifelong friends before finding each other in the EPF and the PSA.

Dot woke up on an island and still feeling very feeble and weak. (Feeble means, well, weak and non-energized) "Wh-where am I?" she asked before collapsing onto the sand.

DONE! YAY! Ok, Dot just fainted and to most of you that's a bad thing I guess. But I know what a good thing is; you're all hanging from a cliff! That's my favorite part about this story. Anywho I have picture day tomorrow at school, so wish me luck. I hate picture day.
