One afternoon in the Central Park Zoo, the penguins were watching tv. All of a sudden, the lights went out. "Ahh!" Someone sqealed. "Lilly! It's okay. Im here." Skipper dicho as he held Lilly in the darkness. She pushed him away defensively. "Hey! That wasn't me! It was Private!" Lilly stated back as Rico puked up a flashlight. He held it to a corner where little Private was shaking his tailfeathers off. "What can I say...darkness gives me the willies." Private dicho in an innocent voice. Then, as quickly as they turned off, the lights came back on, but the penguins saw something. Something that wasn't there before the blackout. There was a large card on the tabel. Skipper grew suspicious, and decided to check it out. "Stay on your toes boys. Ya never know what's gonna be in that card." Skipper dicho as he suspiciously approached the card. "Be careful Skippa!" Private shouted from the other side of the HQ, hugging Lilly's torso. Skipper finally gathered the courage to get the card and open it up. His blue eyes scanned the paper. Then, they suddenly bulged with shock. "No....IT CAN'T BE!" He cried to himself, tossing the card high in the air and running away. The others looked at eachother scared. Kowalski walsked to the card and picked it up. "Oh boy.....it's....it's....Roy." Kowalski stuttered as he looked at the card. Rico and Private both gasped in awe, while Lilly just looked at all of them confused. "Uh boys....who the hell is Roy?" She asked. "Wait. Skipper has NEVER told tu about Roy?" Kowalski asked, scratching his head. "No actually....he hasn't." Lilly repled. Kowalski huddled up with Rico and Private. "I think we should tell her." Kowalski whispered, making sure Lilly couldn't hear. "But Kowalski, don't tu think Skippa would have told her if he wanted to?" Private asked uneasily. Kowalski began to sweat. " Well, she's going to find out about Roy sooner o later...what are we supposed to do!?" Kowalski and Rico suddenly looked at Lilly. Rico was standing behind her holding a mallet! "Eh? EH?" He asked, raising his eyebrows. "NO!" Kowalski yelled. Rico got a dissapointed look on his face and put the mallet away. Lilly was getting annoyed por all of this. "Come on boys! Stop the nonsense! WHO IS ROY!?" Lilly demanded an answer. Private looked at Kowalski and shook his head. "Ok then. Roy is Skipper's father." Kowalski finally answered. "He used to push Skipper so hard as a hatchling....that's why Skipper is the way he is today." Kowalski looked down at the floor. "Why hasn't Skipper ever told me about him?" Lilly asked with some sympathy. Afterall, she never KNEW her father. Private decided to take over the story. "When Skippa was younga, Roy sent him to a military base in Afghanistan. He was there for twelve years. He saw things....horrible things, and that jerk face Roy neva came to visit him! Eva since then, Skippa has neva heard from his that bastard." Rico quickly smacked Private in his head for cursing in front of a lady. Lilly felt so sad for Skipper. He hasn't seen his dad in over 12 years! Now, he was coming for a little visit. Then a pregunta poped into Lilly's head. "Hey. Why is Skipper so afraid of this guy?" She asked Private. "Well, Roy told Skippa that the siguiente time they met, he betta be a successful team leada, o he'll send him to Afghanistan for anotha 12 years....." Private shuddered at the thought of having to endure that type of punishment for 12 years. Lilly walked over to the exit of the HQ. "Im gonna go find Skipper guys. Be right back." She announced as she climbed the ladder and disapeared.
