A/N: Read and review if you like it!

"She's not with Private?" Sandy blinked.

"She never came to see me," Private defended. "But let's check to see if she's there anyways."

They swam down to the penguins' hideout, but there was nobody there.

"All clear…" Sandy frowned.

"Not quite."

They turned around to face the TV screen…which had a giant picture of Madame Molar.

"Molar!"

"Right you are. Sandy, did you really think I would let you go so easily?"

"I…"

"You're so easily tricked. I'd think the whole relationship incident would be evidence of that, and I'm not talking about your new little lovebird."

"Don't you dare bring that up! It doesn't matter anyways. Do you have Nina?"

Molar shifted, to show Nina being heavily guarded by a group of things that they couldn't clearly make out.

"Nina!" Private was horrified.

"It's only a matter of time before she gets it," Molar hissed, ending transmission.

"I'm going." Sandy went to swim up.

"Sandy, we've got to prepare." Shelley shook her head. "Make more weapons, plan an actual, full-fledged strategy-"

"There's no time!" She exclaimed. "I was naïve, and I got us into this, so I'm getting us out."

"Sandy, you're going to get yourself killed!" Skipper shook his head.

"Well then, I guess I'd better do this now." Sandy looked him in the eye and kissed him.

After a few seconds, she broke away, and with one last look, left.

Sandy arrived at the docks. "I'm here, Molar, go ahead and kill me."

Bubbles emerged from one section of the water and Sandy dove to find the source. When she was deep enough, she found an underwater lair that was heavily guarded.

"An underwater lair?" Sandy stared. "Wicked."

She swam inside.

"Sandy," Molar grinned evilly, her tooth still chipped, "you came."

"I'd do anything for one of my girls. Now where is she?"

"Heavily guarded, but don't worry about her. Now that you've come, the real fun begins." A giant trap fell down on Sandy, leaving her stuck.

"Let Nina go, I don't care what you do to me!"

"Well, we do." The door slammed open.

"Shelley?"

"With some company." She looked to see Shelley, Hunter, and the guys.

"Oh, your army's here?" Molar laughed.

"Yes, and they'll save us." Sandy growled. "They're smarter than you, so just give up, Molar."

"So they can save you? Oh, Sandy…" Molar barred the door shut with iron. "You're so self-important. You think all of this was for you? Because you hit me in the teeth? Don't be silly. None of you girls were ever the targets, they were."

"What, you mean…Skipper's team?! But why…?"

"I wasn't working on this alone, not by a long shot."

Nina's guards revealed themselves…lobsters.

"Well, well, well…" A voice came from the darkness. "Nice to see you again, peng-you-ins."

Skipper's eyes narrowed in shock and anger. "Blowhole."
