A Hurted Heart
Chapter 9: A Meaning of A Ring

"the next one will not miss." said Antonio, and he aims
Skipper with his gun.
"NO!" cry Marlene. She runs towards Antonio and
pushes him.
"stupid girl!" said Antonio. He punches Marlene's
stomach with his gun. She falls to the ground.
"ugh..." said Marlene, holding her stomach.
"stop... it..." said Skipper. He wakes up. Blood is moving
out through his wound. He hold it with his right
flipper. "it's not... how to treat a woman..." said him
again.
"someone wants to be a hero..." mock Antonio. "alright,
you want to be the first?" said him, aiming Skipper.
Suddenly a smoke bomb throwed into the room.
"INTRUDER!" yel Blowhole.
Three shapes of familiar penguins are moving through
the smokes. They hear Blowhole's yel and Antonio's
scream.
And after the smokes completely disappears, Blowhole
and Antonio already caught in a net. Rico is kicking
them with anger. Kowalski helps Marlene to stand up.
Private holds Skipper's body.
"oh Lord... KOWALSKI!" yel Private, while holding
Skipper's wound.
Rico, Kowalski, and Marlene come to them.
"we have to go back. Faster is better. The wound is
really bad." said Kowalski, after seeing Skipper's wound.
"I'm sorry, this is my fault..." cry Marlene.
"no, it's not, Marlene." said Skipper, while taking a long
breath.
Suddenly he remembered about something.
Something that really important. He remembered that
Antonio took it when he fainted.
The fiance ring.
"wait, Kowalski." said him. He walks to Antonio. "where's
it?" ask him.
"what?" said Antonio.
"THE RING! WHERE'S IT?" yel Skipper. He punches
Antonio's face.
"oh, that ring... I don't know, I forget where I put it..."
said Antonio, laughs.
"YOU!" yel Skipper. He punches Antonio's face again,
extremely hard. And Antonio fainted.
His wound felt dreadful. He gasps and hold it.
"what ring, Skipper? Can we help?" ask Kowalski.
"no... Except, you can kill all of Blowhole's minions
here..." said Skipper. His head starts felt horrible. He
ignores it.
"we already do it." said Kowalski. "we must go now,
Skipper. You've lost lots of blood."
"no... There's still a mission... For me..." said Skipper. He
runs out from the room.
"WAIT! SKIPPER!" yel Kowalski, but too late.
Skipper is searching in every room he meet. In an office
room, in laboratories, in bedrooms. His head and his
wound felt very dreadful. He still searching.
And he find Antonio's bedroom. He enters it and find
the ring. On a table. He takes it with a smile.
"SKIPPER!" yel Marlene. She enters the room with
Kowalski, Rico, and Private.
Skipper smiles and knelts in front of her. His flippers
are holding the ring.
"will you be my fiance, Marlene?" ask him.
Marlene squeals. Kowalski smiles and shakes head.
Private's nodding quickly. Rico smiles too.
"yes, Skipper! I love you! I even want to marry you!" said Marlene.
Skipper smiles. But suddenly a big wave of sore hits his wound and his head.
"I love you too, Marlene." whisper him, still smiling. And then he falls to the ground. Fainted.
"SKIPPER!" cry Marlene.
