" Penguin and Drabbles"
Thanks for the reviews and patience, everyone. Now, here is the next set of drabbles. Please enjoy.
Drabble 14: Rocking Rico (Inspired by a tournament that happened at the school that I am going to.)
Skipper, Private, and Kowalski were all sleeping in their bunks when they heard the song Eye of the Tiger wake them up. Hastily, the three jumped down onto the floor, looking around the HQ.
"Ringtail is going to get it this time," Skipper hissed then widened his eyes at the TV area. There, he saw Rico playing Guitar Hero on a Playstation 3. "Rico," Skipper hollered. " What are you doing up at..."
"One in the morning, Sir," Kowalski murmured with a half lidded glint.
"Right," Skipper uttered as he rolled his blood shot eyes. "What are you doing up at one in the morning?"
"Rocking out," Rico grunted as he beat the high score on the game, but was still playing it.
"And you couldn't have waited until morning for that," Skipper squeaked.
"Uh-uh," Rico shook his head, still not taking his eyes off of the screen.
"Okay, I'm too tired to deal with this, right now," Skipper muttered then began waddling toward the sewer entrance. "If you need me, I'll be at the lemurs' place. At least it's quiet there."

Drabble 15: Crowns Galore and Gorillas
"Maurice, where is my crown," King Julien shouted as he searched the entire lemur habitat. "And my spare crown? And my other crowns?"
"I don't know, your majesty," Maurice uttered from the juice bar. "They were here, yesterday."
"Well, go find them, now" King Julien roared as he glared at Maurice. Soon, he moved his ears, catching a strange sound from the outside wall with the shed next to it.
"That will be about ten bucks for the crown with the leaves," Bada grunted.
"But I only have nine," Barry piped from the ground.
"Well, tough cookies," Bing growled as he held the crown back. "Yous lost."
"Hey," Julien shouted as he stomped over. "I demand you to give me my crowns back."
"Sorry, this is the last one and wes not giving it to yas," Bada snarled. "Unless yous are willing to pay ten bucks."
"Maurice, how much moneys do we have," Julien buzzed.
"Zero bucks," Maurice retorted from the habitat.
"I'll give you ten bucks for it," Skipper retorted as he approached the gorillas. He gave the gorillas the ten bucks then received the crown from them. After he received the crown, he gave it to Julien and narrowed his eyes at the gorillas. "Selling crowns galore illegally," he scoffed. "Not in my zoo, you don't."

Drabble 16: Wild Westerner (Inspired by "The Penguin Stays in the Picture" and "The Lost Treasure of the Golden Squirrel".)
Skipper was wearing a brown cowboy hat and a star badge on his chest, while staring at himself in the spinable mirror, which was inside the HQ. "I should really be a sheriff in a western movie, after I'm done serving for the elite force," he stated.
"Hey, Skipper," Private chirped as he entered the HQ through the fish bowl entrance. "What's with the outfit?"
"Nothing," Skipper gasped as he took off the items and hid them behind his back.
"Skipper, are you from the South West," Private peeped.
"No," Skipper shook his head.
"Oh, alright then," Private cheeped then went to watch the TV.
"But I am a wild westerner at heart," Skipper whispered as he put the items back on.

Drabble 17: Texas Trouble (Inspired by my trip to Texas for a family reunion and my mother who visited her grandparents there as a kid.)
"Hey, Kowalski," Private chirped. "How was your trip to Texas?"
"Howdy, Private," Kowalski tweeted out in a deep Texan accent. "It was fine, but ever since I went there, I can not get rid of this accent. It is so dominating."
"Pardon," Private raised an eyebrow. "I'm sorry, Kowalski, but you may need to speak a little slower, because I can't understand a word you're saying."
" He said that he got a Texan accent and now he's stuck with it," Skipper retorted from the table then paused. "My drill sergeant had the same accent, too."
"Oh," Private chimed then started speaking with the same accent as Kowalski. "Well, if it's any consolation, people had a hard time understanding my British accent and...Oh dear. I lost it."
"I warned ya'll it was dominating," Kowalski uttered.

LOL. Wow. That accent did not take long to catch on to (Do not worry. I am not making fun of it. Also, the accent does not catch on that fast as far as I know of, since I was only there for about a week.) and neither did the gorillas' illegal hustling. Anywho. Please stay tuned for the next set of drabbles. Thank-you.
