Chapter 2: I’m on My Way
Later that night Brandon and Marlene left the zoo when everyone was asleep. They made not one noise while leaving to make sure no one woke up. They had left the zoo and made their way. However, Brandon and Marlene had trouble getting to Coney Island. They were so used to being with the penguins when they were outside the zoo, but this time they were on their own.
“Which one is the subway?” asked Brandon.
“Brandon, I think their both the subway.” dicho Marlene.
“No! One say Subway A, the other says Subway B! And their both on opposite sides of the street. One could be the wrong Subway!”
“But their all the same route.”
“That’s what they want tu to think!”
“Have tu been hanging out with Skipper?”
“Yeah how did tu know?”
“Lucky guess.”
“Well don’t worry Marlene, I know how to pick a subway in a way that is so hard, so un-expecting, that not even Kowalski would know how to pick this way!…Enny, meeny, miny, moe, catch a pingüino, pingüino de por its tows, if he blows up let him go, enny, meeny, miny, moe. I don’t know which subway to take so I will just pick you!”
*He points to Subway B.*
“Subway B it is!” dicho Brandon.
“Alright, let’s just go already.” dicho Marlene.
The otters then went in the subway, got in the subway train and made their way to Coney Island. They had to hide though; they couldn’t risk being seen por any humans. The train ride didn’t last very long; it was only two stops away from where they were.
Now arriving, at Coney Island.
“That’s our stop.” dicho Marlene.
“Then lets go.” dicho Brandon.
Marlene and Brandon ran off the subway, still trying not to get seen por any humans. They got out of the subway station, and Coney Island was just straight ahead. It was closed but they were still able to slide in.
“Alright we’re here, now where could Blowhole be?” asked Brandon.
“Maybe he’s over at that water tank with the giant sign above it that says ‘Flippy the Dolphin.’” dicho Marlene
“Oh, how did I miss that?”
“Just come on Brandon!”
Marlene then grabs Brandon’s arm and runs to the water tank. Inside they found a delfín with a blue mechanical eye that was sleeping. It was Dr. Blowhole.
“He’s sleeping, should we wake him up?” asked Marlene.
“Well how else will we get him out of the zoo, Marlene?” asked Brandon.
“I was just asking, would be rude to wake him up.”
“Yeah but we have to, don’t worry I’ll wake him up real gently…WAKE UP tu SLEEPING DOLHINE! WAKE UP! WAKE UP! WAKE UP!”
“Gah! Who’s there?” asked Blowhole.
“Hi Blowhole!”
“Blowhole? My name is Flippy. And who are you?”
“My name is Brandon, and this is my older sister Marlene. We’re here to take tu away from this place and take tu to a better place!”
“Really? Oh thank tu guys so much! I hate here, the humans are just so mean to me, and disrespect me!”
“What did they do to you?” asked Marlene.
“It was earlier today.”
~Earlier in the day~
“And now for his grand finale, Flippy the delfín will jump though the Ring of Fire!” dicho the zoo keeper.
But Blowhole didn’t want to jump though the Ring of Fire. He refused to do it.
“I dicho Flippy the delfín will jump though the Ring of Fire!”
Blowhole still refuses to jump though the Ring of Fire. The zookeeper then got a big stick and starts to poke Blowhole with it. But Blowhole still refused to jump!
“Jump tu stupid dolphin!”
The zookeeper stared to hit Blowhole with the stick and Blowhole was getting hurt. He would keep hitting him over and over again till he jumped. Blowhole couldn’t take it so he jumped though the Ring of fuego just to get it over with. But Blowhole wasn’t ready to jump; he just jumped and overshot the jump. He went to low; his tail hit the fuego and went so fast he flew out of his tank and his tail was on fire. Blowhole was in pain, trying to get to his water tank to the fuego can be put out, but instead of the humans helping him, they just laughed. Blowhole finally was able to get back in his water tank the fuego was out. But everyone was still laughing which made Blowhole angry.
~End of flashback~
“Oh my god, Blowhole I’m so sorry that happen to you!” dicho Marlene while she gave him a hug.
“What are tu doing?” asked Blowhole.
“I’m giving tu a hug.”
“Why?”
“Because what those humans did to tu was wrong and tu didn’t deserve it!”
“And that is why I plan to get revenge on them!”
“Revenge? Blowhole no, revenge is not the answer!” dicho Brandon.
“But I refuse to be here and take crap from them everyday!”
“But this is why we’re here, we want to take tu away from this place and take tu to our zoo! It’s a better place there and tu will be taken better care of!”
“How can I believe you?”
“Marlene and I left our zoo and came all the way here for tu por ourselves! Why else would two little otters come all this way just to save a dolphin?”
“You…may have a point. Alright, I’ll go with you, leave this horrible place behind and just forget about.”
“Thank you, now come on lets get out of here.”
Blowhole then got out of his tank and fallowed Brandon and Marlene. They got in a truck they found outside, got in and hot wired it.
“Wait, who’s going to drive?” asked Blowhole.
“You are.” dicho Marlene.
“Me? I don’t know how to drive, and I don’t have feet!”
“Well that’s why Brandon will work the peddles while tu steer, and I‘ll give directions.”
“I’m not so sure about this.”
“Don’t worry dude, I’ll make sure I won’t be speeding.” dicho Brandon.
“Well okay, are we ready to go?”
“Almost, we just need to find the right song before we drive.”
“Brandon is this really a good time for music?” asked Marlene.
“It’s always a good time for music, Marlene! Let’s see what CD’s this truck has.”
Brandon then looks around for CD’s, but only found one and it only had one song. However, it was a song Brandon knew.
“Awesome! I amor this song and I have it stuck in my head! This will work!”
Brandon put in the CD the played the one and only track it had. The song was “On My Way” por a new band he found the other día called KayGeBe. The song then stared to play and Blowhole and the otters stared to drive.
“Blowhole! Sing this song with me!”
“I don’t even know this song.”
“Don’t worry man; tu will learn the lyrics of this song even if this is your first time listing. I’ll start signing.”
Brandon then begins to sing the song.
Right…Right…
I had dreams but I lost those-(break)
On my knees at the cruzar, cruz roads,
Breathin' out the pot smoke,
What I need I do not know-(break)
And I've got no,
Direction, letting go, forgetting gets to Cost so,
f*cking much so f*ck the clutch touch the pedal I'm revving hard,
The wound may of healed but for real Il be forever scared,
N I've sat at every bar and drank n drank till every part,
Of me was numb except my corazón can't f*kin' seem to ever start,
--To loose the feeling--bruised an hardly healing,
Only knowing threes no opiate that can Truly mask the feeling,
But they say its not the smiles but the pain That makes you,
In that case, brace yourselves I'm about to take you,
Back to breaking mirrors 13 cursed with bad acne,
My doctor packed me on roaccutane sat back an trapped me,
In a world of depression, shrink sessions unhappy-,
Nuss plus my aggression pushed everyone back-the,
Reason for bleeding even If I didn't néed em,
But The cost of the loss of um, bankrupt my feelings,
Now My art is catharsis, see it's easy to be revealing,
But Its The hardest thing to be parting with secrets that kept me breathing,
Tonight its gettin' so damn- cold,
I’m here Freezing on Cam-den Road,
Let it go they say it's just what fate- chose,
But at the end of the día what do they know, cause
Just then Blowhole started to sing. (A/N: Okay just so no one gets confused. For the rest of the song when part of the lyrics are in frases like “( )” that means Brandon is singing, when it’s not in quotes, Blowhole is singing.)
I…
(A-a-ammmmm)
I'm on way back, my way back home,
(Hooooooooooooome.)
And when I fell apart, it let me grow,
(I’m on my waaaaaaaay baaaaaaaack)
This isn't what I wanted, but I guess it's what I need,
(Hooooooooooo-ooommmme)
So I'm on my way back, my way back to -----
(I’m on my waaaaaaaay baaaaaaack)
I'm on way back, my way back home,
(Hoooooooooooooome.)
And when I fell apart, it let me grow,
(I’m on my waaaaaaaay baaaaaaaack)
This isn't what I wanted, but I guess it's what I need,
(Hooooooooooo-ooommmme)
So I'm on my way back, my way back to -----me.
(I’m on my waaaaaaaay baaaaaaack)
(Hooooo-ooomeee)
“I’ll take it from here, Brandon!” dicho Blowhole.
And so he did, Blowhole started canto the rest of the song, even if it was his first time listing to this song.
I was only 17 when the water was getting deep,
Drowning in the dreams I'd never reach until I sleep,
From my arms wide open to hearts I'd broken,
She had broken mine for the ninth time, I know in,
Nuneaton town you'd get beaten down,
But what I'm feelin now is even deeper down,
Out into the blue but I'm now without you,
Without an ounce of hope ill smoke an ounce o two,
it’s what I'm bound to do since tu left me in the deep end,
Held my breath wished for death. But My corazón kept beatin',
'N now I’m Kneelin in the dirt, heavy headed feelin dead inside,
Every pressure pushing down on me, so tu see now why I’m getting high,
But It's now o never, an it's evident that never leads to nothin,
Rushing, pushing harder f*ck the part a me that wants to f*ckin,Give in...
It's hard but I'm gunna make it through,
make it to, a place I ain’t stuck loving and hating you,
Cause baby loosing tu was the hardest thing I've ever been through,
But now your just a scar on a shredded corazón I haven’t seen you,
For months, months of alcohol blackouts, that's bout,
Half of it, it's hard the quit the only sh*t that blocks the crap out.
But ladies and gentlemen I'm back in my element,
It was a hell of a ride, but I won't die ,for the hell of it,
And I'll be yellin that from every rooftop and sky scrape-Hitch hikin on highways. --- I'm on my way, home.
I didn't think I'd trip but I fell face first,
From grace, straight down fast Till I taste dirt,
I found, the path but didn't know the way cause,
I was lost back then and still today but, look
I…
(A-a-ammmmm)
I'm on way back, my way back home,
(Hooooooooooooome.)
And when I fell apart, it let me grow,
(I’m on my waaaaaaaay baaaaaaaack)
This isn't what I wanted, but I guess it's what I need,
(Hooooooooooo-ooommmme)
So I'm on my way back, my way back to -----
(I’m on my waaaaaaaay baaaaaaack)
I'm on way back, my way back home,
(Hoooooooooooooome.)
And when I fell apart, it let me grow,
(I’m on my waaaaaaaay baaaaaaaack)
This isn't what I wanted, but I guess it's what I need,
(Hooooooooooo-ooommmme)

(I’m on my waaaaaaaay baaaaaaack)
I'm on way back, my way back home,

(I’m on my waaaaaaaay baaaaaaack)
(Hooooo-ooomeee)
~End of song~
“Dude! Blowhole that was awesome!” dicho Brandon.
“It was, wasn’t it?” asked Blowhole with a smirk on his face.
“You have such a great voice!” dicho Marlene.
“Why thank you. Is that the zoo?”
“Yup, we’re here alright. Blowhole, welcome to the Central Park Zoo!”
