Antarctica
2 Days Before Migration...
*a 15 anno old Rico was waddling along when he heard something...*
KABOOM!
Rico: "Whoa! What was that?!" *curious, he followed where the sound came from*
KABOOM! KABOOM!
Rico: *kept going & stopped suddenly when he saw lights exploding in the sky* "Whoa...Cool..." *he just kept watching when he saw large creatures sending these exploding lights into the sky* "Hey, my mom told me about these beings, they're humans!" *he went back to his home as fast as he could go*
Rico: "Mom! Dad! You'll never believe what I just saw! These exploding lights were in the sky! And humans were creating them!"
Lithia: "Rico! I told te never to go near humans!"
Rico: "But Ma! I didn't go near them!"
Lithia: "Well, don't start thinking about it now. They could very well kill te without remorse. te don't go anywhere near them. Understood?"
Rico: "Bu--"
Jordan: "--Uderoo?"
Rico: *sigh* "Yeah. Understood"
Migration giorno Is Tomorrow...
Lithia: "Rico! Are te ready to start the migration tomorrow?"
Rico: "Yeah, Ma! Ready!" I have to go see the fireworks one last time...
The successivo Morning...
Rico: *wanting to see the lights one last time, he went to watch* "Hey, what's that?" *he could hear a light yelping coming from the back of the truck the humans had, so he sneaked over to the truck & carefully whispered* "Hey!? Is somebody up there?"
Voice: "Yes! Can te help me!? Please!"
Rico: "Um, hold on!" *he noticed the hole on the bottom of the lock on the cooler, so he went over & saw something that could easily fit into it* "Here! This might help!"
Voice: "Hurry!"
Rico: *unlocked the più fresco, dispositivo di raffreddamento & helped the pinguino out* "Let's go!"
Voice: "Look out!"
Human 2: "HEY! Yo, Bradley! This pinguino somehow tried to free that pinguino we caught earlier!" *he detto as he grabbed up the penguin* "2 penguins for the Zoo! We are definitely gettin' some green for this!"
Rico: "NO! Let go of me!"
Voice: "It's no use! If they want te they'll have you!"
Rico: *coughs up the head of a hammer into Human 2's face*
Human 2: "AAAAH! How did he do that?!" *drops Rico & him & Voice belly slide away*
In The Middle Of Nowhere...
Rico: "Hey, are te OK? I'm Rico."
Voice: "Yeah, I'm fine. Kowalski." *extends flipper*
Rico: "What does that mean?"
Kowalski: "Oh, that's how I've seen hu--I mean other creatures greet each other. te grab my flipper & we sposta our flippers up & down."
Rico/Kowalski: *shake flippers*
Kowalski: "Thanks for saving me back there. I never would've gotten out of that cooler."
Rico: "Hey, no problem...Uh, where are we?"
Kowalski: *looks around* "I don't know. We're way off the reser--Wait? What were te doing this far off the reserve?"
Rico: "I heard this loud boom. I had to know what it was."
Kowalski: "Oh, those are fireworks. They're very complicated mixtures of different explosives. da the way, how exactly did te get that hammer-head down your throat without choking? How did te even cough it up?"
Rico: "Oh, it's sort of runs in my family. I don't know how we do it."
Kowalski: "It makes your voice sort of rough."
Rico: "Yeah, I get this gift on my Dad's side. His voice went out da the time he was 23. He sort of talks in grunts & squeals now. He says I'll eventually get that way."
Kowalski: "Well, I suppose we'd better start walking. Our rookery should be migrating to the feeding grounds."
Rico: "Which way is that?"
Kowalski: "I don't know. I was hoping you'd know."
Rico: "Nope. I guess we'd better just take our chances then."
Kowalski: "No, we'll leave tonight. I've spent a little over a anno studying the stars & I'll know which way to go once they come out."
Rico: "Um, whatever te say...So when did te get captured?"
Kowalski: "About an ora ago. Those humans are just horrible...My mom was right..."
Rico: "Yeah. Mine too. They're probably worried sick about us right now."
Kowalski: "Yeah. We should probably get a few hours of sleep if we're to start walking tonight."
Rico: "Yeah. Night! Or...Afternoon...As it were."
Kowalski: "See te tonight..."
