Chapter 12: Plans Of The Brillant Sort
" Wait what?" I sputtered out as I grabbed a flock of stray hair and moved it away from my eyes, my attention had turned towards Kowalski in an instant as he appeared to shuffle around the place in a panic.
" The Recon plans, Skipper was producing a plan for us to assaisante , T-that insignia was his which means that Dr. Blowhole is one step ahead of us" Kowalski's worried stricken eyes replied as he looked at me.
" Who's Dr. Blowhole?" I asked while cocking an eyebrow in confusion. Kowalski rolled his eyes and sighed loudly, annoyed and agitated by this furthur disruption. He took his clipboard and began to scribble down notes, he then showed me a picture of a dolphin with a device around his eye.
" One of Skipper's enemies, I don't much about personal history but their rivarly goes way back, 10 years to be precise," He paused, pased and then returned to center.
" However, Dr. Blowhole has many spies situated in the small place of Coney Island, we've been there before however it wasn't all fun and games. We had to stop him from melting the South Pole"
" I remember seeing Chuck Charles reporting about that mysterious situation a few years ago" My mind clicked when the world was in panic of the fire hoops that appeared over night. Hannah and I were in complete awe when we watched the live report.
" You see? He's evil and he always rubs in my face that he has the better expement," His face turned bitter and he scowled.
" Soo, what are you going to do now?" I asked quietly. Kowalski sighed and facepalmed.
" I don't know . . . . . the hard part is telling Skipper, he-he surely is going to discharge me for this one, how-how could I let that slip" I bit my lip and stepped forwards, splayed a hand on his shoulder and recalled.
" It was me... I let your guard down, I am the one to blame . . . I'm sorry"
Kowalski's face softened, and he smiled kinderly and placed a hand over mine. He pressed our foreheads together and whispered.
" No, it's not your blame"
" Kowalski, front and center" Skipper's voice rang through the HQ and shivered down our spines in surprise and shock. I nodded as I let Kowalski go and face the music. I sighed as I walked out as well and stood in front of the 3 penguins and beside Kowalski.
" Skipper, has our Recon plans" Skipper's eyes widened as he stepped forwards with his trademark scowl.
" You realise what this means soldier?" He asked quietly and a voice with a hint of monotone. Kowalski gulped.
" Yes Sir, our enemy is now many steps ahead of us" Skipper flicked a flipper up.
" Bingo"
" But-but Sir, we had a blind attack, Sky and I were in the lab when a smoke bomb came from the vent and assaulted us, they then took the advantage and proceeded to take our plans" Kowalski explained as he frantly wailed his hands in the air and paced around.
" Question is, how did you not hear the intruder coming from the vent? And what were you and Sky doing in the lab alone?" Skipper emphisezed the word alone and it both rang visously in our ears. Kowalski blushed and began to shake.
" Nothin-" " That does explain why you are in human form" Skipper intrupeted him with a devious smile and wink. Kowalski by this point was as red as a tomato.
" NO" Kowalski screamed and mantled brighter when everyone stared at him.
" Honestly Skipper why you must come to such conclusions is popropstious, Sky was merely asking a question such as supper and what we should have" Skipper seemed to buy it but quickly opened his mouth before shutting it again. Something told me Kowalski would have many questions to answer at bedtime.
I crossed my arms as Kowalski and the boys came up with plans. Skipper and Kowalski had made 20 pages of blueprints before diseding on about half of them, Rico and Private were on watch duty searching the HQ for any secret cameras or hearing devices. I sat in the corner and watched as the time ticked by, I wondered what Miyuki was up too I should have grabbed her cell, and asked what she was up too; a time like this would be perfect to go out for a couple of hours.
" No no no Skipper please, your not going to?" Kowalski whispered to Skipper, loud enough everyone heard.
" What other choice do we have, I have done some spy work on Blowhole and he seems to have an interest in our lovely lady, it's easy to make a lobster talk when he's in hot butter, Blowhole plans to take her hostage to get what he wantsd" Kowalski nodded in agreement as he shook his pencil. By this time I gave him a piece of candy to turn him back, it was kinda intimating with 3 penguins and a grown male conversing together.
" What is he hoping to prod with taking Sky?" Kowalski peered up from his notes.
" Not sure not that much into his plans yet, however it won't be pretty we can expect that much" Skipper replied as he returned to the papers.
" Besides it's easy to fake passports right? Sky can just pretend to be someone else and then your fine, Blowhole has a broader internet excess then us and be able to track her in a minute of seconds"
" Hmmm that is a good idea, perhaps we should include her in the conversation then?"
I placed a hand in the air and eaved it back and forth.
" No worries I heard it all, so this guy plans to take me eh?" I asked as I stood and joined the boys at the table.
" Correct amondo Sky, in order to prevent that from happening were going to change you a bit and give you a fake name then get you a passport and send you somewhere far away until your safe again" I nodded in agreement and turned towards Kowalski.
" Sounds good and I have some hair dye that Stella gave to me when I was the hair saloon, she gave me bright red to jazz it up though I'm not sure why" I then grabbed my backpack from my room and showed them the circle shaped container.
" Good now you need a new name" Before he could reply I came up with one.
" How about Elle Samantha Gibson? Not the best, but it will do" I replied as I ran to the bathroom and ran the sink, I dunked my head in quick and then started to dab the red all throughout my hair. As it absorbed I rinsed it out again and then towel dried it, sure enough my hair was now blood red, thank God it wasn't perment.
I walked out and showed the guys. Skipper made Rico cough up a pair of glasses and made me wear them.
" These glasses make it hard for people to see your real eye color, as well as your eye type" I nodded as I adjusted them on the bridge of my nose and then sat back down.
" Wheres the place?" I asked getting right to buisness.
" Honolulu, Hawaii at the Coconut Akulwula Resort, it's on a nice secluded beach and theres no one with alies to Blowhole I did some research as well, your scheduled to stay there for 2 weeks but we will contact you if any furthur rest period is needed, if that happens give them this" Skipper handed me a gold colored credit card.
" This is indeed a credit card however Kowalski modifed it, it has money in it, that gets used but then it never gets deleted it's as if to say you never spend a cent, so go and have a ball" Skipper smiled. I too mirrored his smile as I put the card in my backpack and into my wallet.
" Wait, what about clothes and stuff like that?" I asked, Skipper smiled as he tapped a flipper on my arm.
" Oh don't worry I checked out all those girly shops for my girl and got everything you need for a nice, beach vacation, your luggage will be there and waiting for you, as well as transportation, everything is taken care of"
" Thanks guys, I'll go get that passport no.." " No need to worry" Skipper flipped a flipper and then motioned to Rico who gave me a passport with a picture that looked like me on it. I cocked an eyebrow and looked towards them.
" Uhh did you guys have a camera when you took this?" I asked curiously.
" That's our little secret" Skipper winked as I gave him a glare, I rolled my eyes in humor as I once again turned towards the tunnel.
" Woah, you don't think your going alone are you?" I abruptly stopped, cocked an eyebrow again and turned around.
" Ya" was my only reply. Skipper once again laughed.
" We decided to send one person with you for protection" All the penguins behind him gave him looks and and shrugged.
" And we decided . . . .Kowalski"
" What?" Me and Kowalski chimed in at the same time.
" Well sure, Kowalski's the brains and he knows everything which means is they gave him some sort of antidote that he would spill his brains out, and he's safer with you"
Kowalski whiced a bit.
" If your sure Skipper. . . " he sighed as he followed me into the tunnel.
And then the silence started.
