"Sarge was right" Skipper whispered, he was hiding behind several ferns staring out at a beach where Deadshot stood by the water, talking to a family of dolphins, his back to Skipper.
"But Deadshot, Mila, she's too young, as is Tommy, you can't take them!" the moth dolphin wailed.
"Why don't they just swim away?" Skipper wondered. Suddenly he noticed the family was trapped in a net, they couldn't simply swim away.
"Oh yes I can" Skipper remembered those words from when Deadshot had murdered his father in cold blood.
"Not this time" Skipper flung himself from his hiding place and rammed into Deadshot before he sliced the dolphin's throat. The lemur had already pulled the knife out and cut the mother's side instead of her throat. Deadshot had Skipper pinned in a heart-beat.
"You!" he hissed, "I thought I ditched you back in the Denmark".
"You thought wrong!" Skipper spat, he kicked at Deadshot's belly. He then leaned toward's the lemur's arm and bit down hard. Blood used into his beak, it tasted awful, but it had been enough to allow him to throw Deadshot off him.
"Why are you so interested in taking kids from their parents?" Skipper snarled remembering his own family's death.
"Simply little penguin, they owe me a life, sometimes more than one, and when they hand them over, I simply kill them. Like I should have done with you, but you were the lucky one, I was feeling generous that day, hoping that a new survivor would bring more fear to my name but you've become just a nusaince, it's time to finnsih you off once and for all!" Skipper felt Deadshot's claws rip through his back. Skipper did a hand stand and kicked out at Deadshot's head, stunning him long enough for Skipper to grab the knife and throw it in the water, where the father dolphin grab it and cut his family free, the dolphins took off in a heart-beat, leaving Skipper alone on the beach with a killer.
"Say hello to your father for me boy!" Deadshot lunged at Skipper, who leapt back to avoid the flying claws and fangs that could easily end his mission and life.
"I'm not dead yet!" Skipper acted as if he were going to kick Deadshot who jumped to avoid having his legs kicked out from under him, but instead of kicking Skipper punched, hitting Deadshot square in the stomach. Deadshot stumbled back, his golden eyes gleaming with so much fury, that Skipper instinctively took a step back. Suddenly the sound of a boat interrupted their fight, Deadshot glanced at the boat and bolted.
"I have other plans and many others to kill, and lives to ruin, but believe me boy we'll meet again and when we do, I'll kill you!" Deadshot flung himself onto the boat and Skipper dived into the water trying to catch the boat. He couldn't keep up with the boat while on the surface so he dived into the water and started swimming like he was catching fish, except his fish was a boat. He didn't catch it, it was too fast for him to keep up for long. Skipper was forced to retreat back to shore, humiliated, but happy. He may not have been able to stop Deadshot from escaping but he had foiled the lemur's plans to kill the dolphin family, which was by now long gone. Not only that, he knew where the ship was going to make port, he had heard the captain of the ship talking to one of the passengers, humans were very loud. He just had to get there before they did, otherwise he was going to lose Deadshot again; the boat was heading to Denmark.
"I'm coming for you Deadshot, and just maybe for you too Hans" Skipper smiled, there was no doubt now, he was getting better at his job.
