Icicle's Log.
1300 hrs.

We have a small problem. Skipper got back on duty, and ya know what? He couldn't even keep up with his team! HE COULD'NT EVEN KEEP UP WITH ME! Wow, since when did I run faster then Skipper?

In training today, when they battle each other like they usually do, EVERYONE BEAT HIM! Even Kowalski! I didn't want to send Catherine in...I'm afraid of the results. O_O

Kowalski thinks he just need zaidi rest. Most of us agrees, but Hannah say he's out of training. I mean, getting hit in the noggen and loosing all feeling in the legs for 2 months. I don't blame her!

Catherine thinks evil faries got to him...Mm-kay.

So, we have an out-of-training Skipper. So badly out of training that when I actually let Catherine fight him, she won. O_o

Well, Lilly called for a meeting in Marlene's room since we left Skipper with the crew in the HQ. Right now we're discussing with t

"ICICLE! Stop uandishi in your book and pay attention!" ordered Lilly.

"Aw," she said, putting the book in her small backpack. "So, what are we discussing?" she asked. She started bouncing in the chair that she was sitting upon, making her glasses wobble on her head until it fell in front of her face.

"We're talking about the evil faries!" shouted Catherine. She was currently spinning in that revolving chair she was in. "EEEEEEEEEVIL!"

Lilly sighed. "Catherine, go get yourself some bubble gum," alisema said, passing her a quarter.

"YAY!" She skipped out of the room in a flash.

One kwa one Jazmin counted the number of wanyama in the room. "Okay. Lilly, Hannah, Icicle, minus Catherine, Jake, Mica, Marlene, Sandra, Me...am I missing anyone?" asked Jazzy. "I think not."

"Why am I here?" asked Jake, eating a few winkies as he waited.

Sandra was sitting in a relaxed position, feet up the meza, jedwali with her flipper's behind her head laying back. A bored/worred expression covered her face. "We need all the help we can get!" Sandra told him.

Footsteps where heard kwa the enterance of the room. Soon Kowalski, Private, and Rico showed up.

"What are wewe guys doing here?" asked Lilly. "You're suppose to watch over Skipper!"

"Oh don't worry," assured Kowalski. "We heard that there was a meeting and we didn't want to miss out. We told Skipper we're just asking wewe guys where wewe put his coffee machine."

Jazzy appeared inayofuata to him. "Kowalski, what if Skipper walks out of the HQ?" she asked him.

Kowalski patted her head. "Oh, don't worry! Rico took care of that situation."

<*> * <*>

Back in the HQ, Skipper was struggling to get out of his cocoon. "Get. Me. OUT OF HERE!" he yelled. (Should've duct-tapped his beak. :P)

<*> * <*>

"So, where were we?" he asked. All three penguins sat into a seat.

"Well, we were talking about the Skipper situation," alisema Mica.

inayofuata to Mica, Hannah said, "It is important that we figure out what's the problem with Skipper and how are we going to fix it."

Icicle raised her flipper.

"Yes Icicle?" alisema Lilly.

She stood on her kiti, kiti cha an cleared her throat. "Ahem...Why do wewe get the end seeeaaat?" she whined.

"Because I called the meeting, I get the end seat!" she told her. "Now can wewe say something related to our crisis?"

"Uhhh...If Skipper's out of training like wewe said, how do we fix it? I mean, how bad IS he? And how WILL we fix it?" she asked.

Everyone thought for a second. The silence was broken when Marlene, who was sitting on the bench unnoticed, said, "Hey, wewe guys should help him train again! I mean, he train wewe guys!...at least, most of you. I'm sure he'll get back to normal soon!"

"Marlene's right," alisema Jake. "Pass me that bowl of winkies, Private."

"So that's that! We'll help him get back on his webbed feet!" cheered Sandra. "That'll be easy. It's not like anything important will be comming up."

Private leaned back on his chair. "Hm...funny. Why do I get the feeling that wewe just jinxed things?"

Everyone just shrugged the thought, despite the same feeling everyone had in their gut. Right now, everyone was comming up with suggestings of how to deal with their leader.

Just then, there was a knock from the outside of the room. Everyone got out of their seats to check it out.

They saw Catherine blowing a bubble from her gum standing inayofuata to a tall, buff penguin. Everyone stared at him. "Uh, excuse me, who are you?" asked Kowalski.

"Hello," greeted the tall, important-looking penguin. "I'm from the penguin, auk HQ. I understand that your leader is...incapable of doing his job? I came over to check."

Everyone stood there in silence. Icicle sighed. "Oh, such bad timing."
