First off, I would like to apologize five hundred times for not updating sooner. The wireless network in my room is quite spotty and it's the worst when I try to go on FanFiction.

Secondly, when I actually had decent connection and managed to type up Chapter Three, I LOST connection as soon as I hit save.

Anyway, here's the next part!


"W-Welcome b-b-back t-to Cl-Club Pen-Penguin T-Talk Sh-Show!" Rookie stammered, trying to sound as enthusiastic as he could. His face was a darker shade of green than usual.

"I told you not to eat those cupcakes," Astra hissed into her microphone. During the break, Astra found a megaphone and decided to annoy everyone by running around the set, screaming, "WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T EAT THE CUPCAKES WITH PINK FROSTING ON THEM!" It took the combined efforts of Jessie, PH, and Dot to stop her. Unfortunately, Rookie either chose to ignore her or had short-term memory because he consumed at least five of those cupcakes, and he didn't make it to the bathroom in time.

"Our next guest is Candygirl4226!" Rookie announced, pointing to the correct door. Oddly enough, no one came out.

"TigerStar, HawkFrost, get back here!" a female voice yelled. Suddenly, the door opened and two cats ran out.

"CATS!" Rookie shrieked in excitement, picking one up and hugging it tightly. It's eyes looked like they were going to pop out.

"Rookie!" Astra scolded. "Are you trying to choke the cat to death?" She was already mad at Rookie for the amount of puke he had left on the floor. It was disgusting, and she was the only one willing to clean it. Jet Pack Guy was sitting in the corner, rocking back and forth with an insane look on his face from jet pack withdrawal (Kind of like me when I don't get to listen to music. Now THAT'S terrifying).

"What's that smell?" Jessie asked, making a face. She decided to stay after her interview to watch the other penguins talking to Rookie.

"Puke mixed with bleach," Astra groaned, continuing to bleach the floor. "You could always help."

"Why didn't you just use that powder thing?" Astra gave her a questioning look. "Basically, you pour it on the liquid and each individual grain of powder absorbs the puke, becoming small orbs you can easily sweep up. Plus, it smells like lemons" (That stuff actually exists. I had to clean the bathroom at camp, and we just used that to soak up the water. It was so cool).

Astra paused. "Is that what I saw Rookie stirring into a cup of water to make lemonade? No wonder all the water just disappeared, replaced by little orbs." Rookie had freaked out when he saw what his "lemonade" became. Not even Gary knew why that happened.

"Okay then..." Jessie trailed off, shaking her head in disappointment.

The interview with Candygirl was mostly about cats and the Warriors series. Astra had no idea what they were talking about because she never read the books (Don't kill me, Candygirl!). Now she was wishing she paid attention whenever Mewcat talked about it in elementary school.

The Director looked bored as well, but she always managed to snap back to attention just before she was about to fall asleep.

"Rookie, change the subject," Astra said, dumping the rest of the bleach into the sink. "We're all getting pretty bored."

"Let's talk about Pokémon!" Rookie shouted suddenly (Because everyone loves Pokémon!). He started singing the Pokémon theme song for season one very off-key.

"I wanna be the very best
That no one ever was
To catch them is my real test
To train them is my cause"

Candygirl, surprisingly, sang along with him.

"I will travel across the land
Searching far and wide
Each Pokémon to understand
The power that's inside"

Soon enough, the audience began singing the Pokémon theme song too.

"Er, what's going on?" Gary returned from the storage room he was in and handed Jet Pack Guy back his jet pack. "And what's the horrible smell?"

Astra patted his shoulder and led him to the spot where Rookie threw up. "That, my friend, is the result of the odor of puke and scent of bleach, courtesy of Rookie, the cupcakes, and the penguin who made the cupcakes."

G turned green. "I think I'm going to be sick!" With that, he ran off to the bathroom.

"Be sure to clean up your own puke if you don't make it to the bathroom!" Astra called after him. Rookie heard her through his ear piece and looked confused, but oddly enough, he sang that in place of a line of the Pokémon theme song. Candygirl gave him a look that read, What the heck was that? Rookie's expression became embarrassment as the audience burst out laughing, some penguins taking ROFL seriously.

"Do you always have to make a fool of yourself on live television?" Astra grumbled.

"Ooh, a cupcake!" Candygirl noticed, reaching for a dreaded pink frosted cupcake.

"NO!" everyone part of the crew shouted in unison as Rookie slapped the cupcake away. Unfortunately, Candygirl's cat HawkFrost took a bite of the cupcake. All of the penguins tensed, waiting for the cat to vomit.

"Nothing...happened?" Jet Pack Guy asked, regaining his composure after getting his jet pack back. Astra, though, managed to get a video of him in the corner, rocking back and forth with a crazed look as he murmured, "Jet pack. Need jet pack. Jet pack. Need jet pack."

More blackmail material for me! she thought gleefully. Astra still had that recording of Jet Pack Guy and Rookie shrieking like little girls (Reference to my first story). She used that to get Jet Pack Guy to ruin an annoying acquaintance's birthday party so she wouldn't have to go, but it was pretty funny when Jet Pack Guy came back to the HQ covered in pizza, cake, fruit punch, and soda.

The cat strolled out of camera view when it suddenly vomited up the cupcake and whatever it had for lunch today.

"I'm not cleaning that up," Astra announced, holding out a mop and bucket of bleach for another penguin to take. Reluctantly, Jessie took the cleaning supplies and began on the mess.

"We have bigger problems than that," PH noticed, gesturing to Rookie and Candygirl. The two of them were arguing over something, and it looked like they were going to start wrestling each other. Despite the situation, Astra bet that Candygirl would win a fight against Rookie easily. That penguin lost a fight to a refrigerator, breaking a flipper in the process!

"Rookie, we're coming to an end!" Astra snapped. "At least close up before you and Candygirl get into a fight!"

"That's all the time we have for today, folks!" Rookie growled, not even turning to look at the camera. "Tune in next time for another episode of Club Penguin Talk Show!"

"And...cut!" Aunt Arctic yelled just as the two penguins started fighting.

Everyone turned to Astra, as if expecting her to do something.

"What?" Astra asked. Dot pointed to Rookie, who was pinned in a headlock by Candygirl. "Ugh, fine," Astra grumbled, running over to them.

I hate my job.


So school's going to start soon, and I have to take this really important test on literally the second month of school that will determine my future, but I'm most likely going to fail. I'll try to update before then.

I was going to say something else, but I forgot...
