So, we left our four EPF agents following some footprints back in the Forest, a few chapters ago. Lets see how they're getting on...


"Look what Purplepie's found!" Tweakbunny called to her friends,

"What is it now Tweakbunny? We've been following these tracks for ages." Prinsessrock grumbled with her pink puffle in hand.

"It's Peso's medical bag!" Tweakbunny exclaimed pointing to the bag Purplepie held in her mouth.

"So Peso is here on Club Penguin!" Lennyice gasped.

"Tweakbunny was telling the truth." Eva realized, "Which means that Herbert has captured him. We need to hurry."

The four penguins, and their puffles, began to pick up the pace, and soon found themselves before a large cave.

"The tracks lead inside." Prinsessrock whispered,

"Ok, be careful guys, and be quiet." Eva told her friends as she and her puffle, PIXAR began to creep into the cave.

Prinsessrock hugged her puffle as they went deeper and deeper into the darkness.

Eventually they heard voices and saw a dim light up ahead, without a sound they crept around the corner, and quickly hid behind a boulder. Eva and Prinsessrock peeked over the boulder, Prinsessrock quietly gasped. There stood Herbert P. Bear Esquire next to a cage which held a very scared Peso penguin,

"Come on; lets rescue Peso." Prinsessrock whispered beginning to get up. Eva pulled her back down,

"If we stay quiet for a bit we may find out Herbert's plans. Also I have a plan" She whispered her plan quickly to her friends.

They continued to watch while their puffles kept quiet behind them, Klutzy stood nearby clicking his pincers agitatedly, as if trying to tell Herbert something.

"Quiet Klutzy!" Herbert growled in his deep voice,

"So, you've been the one foiling my plans, agent!" Herbert turned to Peso, an evil grin on his face.

"W,w,what?" Peso stammered in fright.

"Finally, I've caught one of the penguins that have foiled my plans for the last time!"

"What p, p, plans?"

"Don't mess with me agent!" Herbert roared angrily,

"I know what you're capable of, you and your Elite Penguin Fool friends have foiled my plans to keep myself warm countless times! All I've ever dreamed is going to a warm quiet land, and yet I'm stuck on this cold miserable island, where all you penguins seem to do is Party and make too much noise!"

"W, w, well, you could just ask them nicely to be quieter, and wear a scarf." Peso cautiously asked.

"What?! No I want revenge! Revenge on those silly EPF agents who think they're smarter than me, who've humiliated me, who've caged me, who've saved CP from my selfish rule, and you're one of them!" Herbert pointed at Peso.

"B, b, bu..." Paso stammered.

"Herbert thinks Peso is one of us!" Prinsessrock whispered in shock to her friends.

"So with you trapped here," Herbert continued, "your agent friends will come looking for you, and I'll be waiting for them. And once I've kidnapped them, no-one will be able to stop me from taking over Club Penguin again! MWA HA HA HA HA!" He laughed triumphantly.

"Yes, except for US!" Eva and Prinsessrock jumped out from behind the boulder, followed by Tweakbunny and Lennyice.

"YOU!" Herbert gasped outraged,

"We meet again Herbert," Eva frowned.

"All four of us do!" Prinsessrock turned to her three fellow agents.

"This doesn't make sense, Klutzy what's going on?" Herbert turned to his crab minion, Klutzy clicked his pincers.

"What do you mean this one's not an agent?" Herbert looked at Peso.

"Klutzy's right, Peso's not an EPF agent, he's an Octonaut." Lennyice explained.

"Well EPF agent or not, this penguin has lead you agents right to me, and you will not escape again. Minions grab them!" Herbert ordered as crabs came scuttling in.

"Can't catch me!" Prinsessrock swerved as the crabs lunged at her,

"Get the keys!" Eva told her friends as she dodged another crab.

Herbert sighed as he watched his minions falling over each other, trying to catch the agents

"Do I have to do everything myself?" he sighed.

Tweakbunny ran to the keys lying on Herbert's work desk, she grabbed them, but Herbert knocked her over; the keys flew into the air. Herbert pushed Tweakbunny to his crab minions as he ran after the keys. Prinsessrock grabbed the keys, she and Lennyice quickly tried to unlock the cage, but Herbert stopped them.

Eva turned and saw that her friends had been tied up by the crabs,

"Where's Herbert?" she said realizing he'd vanished while she'd been busy dodging crabs.

Suddenly she heard someone laugh behind her, and before she could turn around everything went dark.

...

When Eva came to, she found herself behind bars with Peso along with her friends.

"Isn't that you Tweakbunny?" Peso whispered,

"Yes it's me, and these are my friends. But please don't tell Herbert who we are, he doesn't know our identities yet." Tweakbunny whispered back, as Herbert gloated over his success.

"Well my plan's working perfectly, and none of you can call for help, because I've taken your spy phones!" Herbert laughed.

Eva turned to the boulder, the puffles PIXAR, Pinky and Purplepie, who was still holding Peso's medical bag, peeked over it. Eva nodded to them, they began to quietly make their way out of the cave and went to look for help. Eva had told the puffles to stay behind, as part of the plan, in case they needed help.

"You'll never get away with this Herbert!" Prinsessrock cried angrily,

"Oh really? I just have! And soon I'll capture all you agents, and I'll finally know all your identities!" Herbert laughed.

"The only question I have now is, if you're not an agent," he turned to Peso,

"then WHO are you?"

"I, I, I'm Peso of the O, o, octonauts." Peso gulped.

"The Octonauts?" Herbert looked puzzled.

"Yes, I'm th,the medic of the Octonauts, I help any creature that is sick or hurt. The Octonauts motto is to Explore, Rescue, and Protect the ocean."

"Now who would want to do that?" Herbert asked sarcastically.

"My friends, who are also Octonauts. We travel the world, me, Kwazii Cat, Dashi Dog, Professor Inkling Octopus, Tweak Bunny, Barnacles Bear, Shellington Sea otter..."

"Wait did you say Barnacles Bear?!" Herbert asked astounded,

"Umm yes, Barnacles the Polar Bear, he's the captain of the Octonauts."

"What!? That polar bear, Barnacles Bear!"
