"Oh, thank goodness you aren't announcing this to the public! I don't want to continuously speak to people, even if they give me money." Marlene sighed in relief. Suddenly, a sewer hatch opened and an alligator climbed out. "Hey guys. I heard music, so I came to the party!" The alligator informed. "Roger? We've got bigger problems!" Private whispered to the alligator. Then, a baboon in a cowboy hat swung into the scene. "Y'all hosted a party? Why didn't ya invite me?" The baboon angrily shouted. "Darla, we have a situation here!" Maurice whispered. All the animals faced Kylie. All species stood there silently for about five minutes until Dexter interrupted. "Well, say something! Hi Kylie." Dexter blurted as he waved to Kylie. " We won't tell this to anyone IF you let us come to your party." Juliana demanded. The animals huddled up and whispered some stuff. Then, Skipper waddled up to Juliana and said "It's a deal." Juliana shook Skippers hand, er, flipper. Then, they all partied. Kylie was talking to Marlene, Kowalski, Max, and Dexter. Juliana was participating in the dancing contest with Darla, King Julien, and Skipper. Hallie was playing tag with Rico, Maurice, and Roger. Marla was telling Mort and Private about the delicious cupcakes her granny bakes for her birthday. "So you're really Alice's neice?" Kowalski questioned Kylie. "Yeah, but I wonder who that dolphin was that killed my parents. And who's the fat walrus?" Kylie asked. " and Rhonda." Kowalski answered. "Which one is the dolphin?" Dexter confusedly wondered. "Dexter, obviously is the dolphin. I hate Rhonda. She was even worse than my half sister Jessie!" Marlene replied. "You have a bad relative too? I have an awful sister named Angeline!" Max added. "Skipper, Rico, Private, and I have two cousins, Manfredi and Johnson. They were out of their minds!" Kowalski exclaimed. "Ooh! Kylie knows very well that I have lots of siblings. One of my eight brothers is a bad apple! His name is Winky. My only two sisters were sweet, so were my other brothers. Sadly, my brother Donny Smash died when he was only eight weeks old..." Dexter stated. "As ironic as it is, I have, or I should say had, a sister named Sara. Sara was only eight and a half, but she was strong and devious. must have killed her, I assume." Kylie said. "I'm going to win the contest! I am better than all of you!" King Julien hissed. "Are ya kiddin'? I'm a professional square dancer!" Darla yelled. "Fighting is just like dancing!" Skipper added. "I took jazz class for three years!" Juliana roared as she danced like she'd never danced before. When she was done, Darla, Skipper, and King Julien looked shocked. "Hooray for Juliana!" They cheered. Hallie was playing a prank on Marla. She and Rico were going to dump water all over her as Maurice and Roger distracted her. "He he he..." She insanely laughed. Oops! The bucket slipped out of her grasp and landed on Roger's head. Marla, being naturally kind, went to go help him. She had to get Mort and Private to help too because the bucket was stuck. Eventually they got the bucket off of his head and everyone had a good laugh. Kylie checked her watch. It was already 1:00a.m.! "Guys, we need to hurry back or else my aunt will get worried!" Kylie warned. They said goodbye to their animal friends, snatched Dexter up, and climbed back up the tree into Alice's apartment. Being intelligent little girls, they remembered to close the window (Dexter forgot to do that when he snuck out.) The girls lay back on their makeshift beds and drifted off to sleep. When Kylie woke up, Dexter was quietly snoring right next to her bed. "That dog does the weirdest things..." Kylie muttered below her breath. Marla, Juliana, and Hallie had woken up a little earlier and were with Alice in the kitchen. Kylie wandered on over to them. Alice was making french toast and bacon, just like Kylie's mother had done. "Good morning Kylie. Did you sleep well?" Alice questioned. "Yes aunt Alice." Kylie replied. "Would you girls like to help take care of the animals today?" Alice asked. "Would we ever!" The girls said excitedly. They wolfed their breakfast down and were dressed and showered faster than you could say "I ate my breakfast and got ready unless than five seconds!" Then, the girls simply walked across the street bringing Dexter along in Kylie's purse. Little did they know, but some big changes would soon happen to their lives.
