The seven sisters were let out of their cage, and led into a large, yet strange looking habitat. They stared around it in wonder and walked in cautiously.
"Where are we, it's very warm here!" Lily remarked, flapping her flipper in front of her face, in an attempt to cool herself down.
"I'm guessing this is the Bronx Zoo." Scarlette replied, looking around suspiciously. Their habitat had a large expanse of water covering most of it, with a large cave at the far end of it. Nearby were two other habitats, one tank, labelled 'Dolphins' and the other labelled 'Penguins.'
"Why would they have two pingüino, pingüino de habitats?" Erin wondered.
"Probably because of our feathers." Cassie remarked, her mind drifting a little. She wondered if Joshua had told the adults, and if he was on his way to get them back.
"Ooh, I want to meet our habitat neighbours!" Becky exclaimed, climbing on parte superior, arriba of the habitat fence. She turned to the habitat to their left, the Dolphins. She saw one delfín swimming around, jumping in the air occasionally. "Um, hello!" Becky called out, watching her curiously. The delfín stopped swimming and popped her out of the water. Her skin was light blue, tinted with grey, and she had dark green eyes, and a blue and green flor on her head.
"Oh hello, tu must be the new arrival, it's nice to meet you." The delfín greeted cheerfully, swimming to the side of her habitat, and watching Becky.
"Well, I'm one of them, I'm Becky." Becky replied, smliling brightly.
"I'm Doris, welcome to the Bronx Zoo." Doris said, taking a closer look at Becky. "My, you've got quite unusual feathers." She remarked.
"Yeah, this strange oil changed them to this colour." Becky explained. "Anyway, these are my sisters." She added, gesturing to the other penguins, and introducing them all. Doris greeted all of them in turn, and they began to chat with their new neighbour.
"So what's this zoo like?" Lexi asked.
"It's quite nice, this is the quieter end, we're the only habitats in this corner, including the other pingüino, pingüino de habitat." Doris answered cheerfully.
"Are the other penguins nice?" Lily asked, a little shyly.
"Yes, most of them are about your age, though there's two adults aswell." Doris replied. "Would tu like to meet them?" She asked. The penguins nodded and Doris hopped out of her habitat, and slid across the floor on her belly, towards the other habitat. She popped her head over the fence and the others did the same. This habitat looked similar to theirs, but it was slightly bigger, and had más land. Heather noticed a small penguin, with a flat head, spiky hair, and light brown eyes, sitting down siguiente to the fence, playing with a toy car. He looked up, and smiled at the dolphin.
"Hey Doris." He greeted, putting his car down for a brief second.
"Hey Tom, could tu get the others please, I'd like to introduce them to our new neighbours." She explained, nodding to the pingüino, pingüino de sisters. (Remember, this is set before Tom arrived at the Central Park Zoo.)
"Ok." He replied, jumping into the water, and swimming over to the cave. He disappeared for a brief second, then came out, followed por 6 other penguins. He invited the sisters in, and they stood on the small area of land at the start of the habitat, a little nervously.
"You've met Tom, and they're his parents, Stacey and Paul." Doris began, nodding to the two adults. Stacey was quite short, and had reddish brown hair tied back in a bun, and dark brown eyes. She had a small pair of glasses covering them. Paul was tall, and had a flat head, and light, blueish green eyes.
"And that's Zoe." Tom said, pointing at a small penguin, who had jet black feathers all over, long spiky red hair, a red underbelly, and dark red eyes, beak and feet. "That's Samantha." He continued, nodding at the tall girl penguin, who's blonde hair was tied back in a ponytail, keeping it out of her light brown eyes. She had a red karate cinturón, correa around her waist. "That's Liam." Tom added, gesturing to a quite tall male penguin, who had light brown eyes, and spiky black hair, that fell a little into his eyes. Tom then turned to the last penguin. "And that's Ryan." He finished. Ryan was the tallest of the penguins, and had dark brown eyes, and short dark brown hair, and a small tuft of it stuck out of the back of his head. Scarlette took a segundo glance at Ryan.
He looks quite a lot like Joel. She thought, smiling at him. He smiled back at the sisters, before speaking up.
"Welcome to the zoo girls, it's nice to have más penguins here." He greeted brightly. The other penguins nodded in agreement. Doris introduced the pingüino, pingüino de sisters, and the penguins smiled at each one.
"Would tu like a tour of the zoo?" Sam asked.
"Not right now thanks, we're pretty exhausted from our trip." Lily replied politely.
"Did tu guys come from Antarctica?" Liam asked.
"Yeah, we were kinda took against our will." Cassie explained, a slight annoyance in her voice.
"Aw, that sucks." Zoe remarked. "Um, were- were tu took because of your feathers?" She asked, earning a slap on the back of the head from Ryan. She glared at him, and stood on his foot.
"You can't just ask preguntas like that." He hissed.
"Why not?" Zoe asked in a low voice. Ryan just sighed and turned back to the new arrivals. Zoe shot him a dark look.
"Lanky giraffe." She muttered.
"Dwarf." He replied, earning a giggle from Tom.
"To answer your pregunta Zoe, yes I think so." Erin replied, a little guiltily. If she hadn't gone to get a sample, maybe they'd still be in Antarctica, and she was feeling a little bad about it. She still had the sample, tucked safely in her bag.
"So, it's real nice to meet tu guys, but we'll think we'll turn in for today." Scarlette announced, smiling at them, then hopping over the fence. The other sisters smiled and waved, then hopped over after her. The penguins, and Doris waved and they headed back to their habitat. They entered the cave, and saw a tiny button on the side of the cave.
"That's odd." Heather muttered to herself. She pressed it and a small lift popped out of the ground, She showed it to her sisters, then strolled inside.
"Woah Heather , careful, tu don't know what's down there." Cassie warned. Heather shrugged her shoulder and the others exchanged a glance, before following her inside. The lift went down, and they came to a square underground room, with a single porthole on the right wall. There was 3 doors on the left wall, one opened to a bathroom, and the siguiente was a large bedroom, divided into 7 sections. The last door contained a spare room, which had nothing in except for a worktable.
"Ooh, I could turn that into a lab!" Erin exclaimed, running into the spare room, and putting her science kit down on the worktable. "She thought for a second, then turned back to the others. "Urm, can I?" She asked hopefully. They sighed, and rolled their eyes. They weren't planning on staying long, but it seemed that Erin had forgotten that.
"C'mon Erin, it's getting late, lets get some sleep." Scarlette told her, patting her shoulder as the other sister went into the room.
"Aright." Erin sighed. "Hey doesn't that Ryan look just like Joel?" She asked her sister, grinning a little.
"I know right, I was thinking the same thing." Scarlette replied, grinning as she walked into the bedroom. There were sleeping bags in each section, and they all lied down in one, hoping to get a little sleep tonight. They called goodnights to each other, then turned off their lights.
I hope tu find us soon guys. Cassie thought as she drifted off.
"Where are we, it's very warm here!" Lily remarked, flapping her flipper in front of her face, in an attempt to cool herself down.
