Hello, peoples!! RavenFeathersOfDarkness here, and I’ve got just one thing to say: SUGAR RUSH!!!
Let me explain. I bought this bag of super खट्टा स्ट्रॉबेरी, स्ट्राबेरी कैन्डी a few days ago, and yesterday I was out doing stuff and I decided to see what would happen if I ate a whole bunch of कैन्डी at once. I did eat a whole bunch of कैन्डी at once, and I’ve been mega-hyper ever since!! I know the crash is just waiting for the right moment to strike, but I’m gonna take this time to get started on Chapter 2. (I just ate four और today and it’s taking all my restraint not to bounce off the walls!! This feels awesome!!)
Now let me just say that I’ve been having a bunch of personal problems lately, and आप guys who reviewed and story-alerted and favorited this story are really helping me. So I’m dedicating this to you! ^^
Disclaimer: As sad as it makes me feel, the only character I own in this story is my OC, Ravena. I don’t own the show, either. I do own the टेलीविज़न when ever it comes on, though. ^^ And now, on with the fanfiction!!
Chapter 2: Great Minds Think Alike
Ravena sat down and rubbed her face with her flippers. Just the thought of her past life sent her mind into a tailspin.
Skipper stared down at her, evidently lost. He hadn’t expected this turn of events and was therefore unsure what to do. Looking over his shoulder he whispered, “Kowalski…options...”
Kowalski pulled out his clipboard from I-wish-I-knew-where, scribbled some stuff down, then said, “…We could walk away and act like nothing happened.”
That option made Ravena want to laugh a little bit, but at the same time she was hurt द्वारा it.
“Something tells me that’s not gonna work,” Skipper said. “Give me another.”
“Okay…you can apologize and try to comfort her?”
“….All right,” Skipper said. He walked over to Ravena and patted her on the shoulder rather awkwardly. “Uh…I’m sorry for sounding so hard on you.”
Ravena stood up. “It’s okay. It’s just that आप bringing up also brought up a lot of tough memories. But I’m fine now. Maybe when I’ve gotten to know आप guys a little better, I’ll tell आप the whole story.”
Kowalski, still लेखन stuff down on his clipboard, looked up. “Skipper, we’re going to need another बिस्तर for Ravena.”
“Yeah, you’re right.” Skipper looked over at Rico.
Rico smiled crazily and hacked up a knife, a chainsaw, and a stick of dynamite, and jumped down into the penguins’ HQ.
Ravena’s eyes went wide, and she looked slightly sick. “How was that even possible?”
Skipper thought for a second, and then sighed. “I better go make sure he doesn’t blow the place up again.” He jumped in after him.
Ravena now looked so utterly confused that Private and Kowalski couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s a long story,” Private said.
“Everything seems to be,” Ravena said, shaking her head. Then to their surprise, she jumped into the water and swam to the edge of the habitat.
“Hey, where are आप going?” Private called over to her.
She looked back at them, surprised. “I’m going to take a look around the zoo. What, I didn’t tell you?”
Kowalski and Private shook his head.
“Oh…sorry about that. I’ve got this habit of doing things without telling anyone, but with me thinking that I did. That got me in a lot of trouble back at my old zoos.”
“Well, maybe it’ll be better if I showed आप around, that way आप don’t get lost?” Kowalski asked. Ravena smiled. “Sounds like a plan to me!”
Kowalski turned to Private. “Tell Skipper that I went to go दिखाना Ravena around the zoo.”
“All right!” Private said, and then jumped down into the HQ.
*******Five मिनटों later*******
Ravena and Kowalski were walking down towards the ऊद, ओटर, ऊदबिलाव exhibit.
“So, who lives here?” Ravena asked.
“Just Marlene the otter.”
“Hmmm... another girl, huh? What’s she like?”
Kowalski thought for a minute. “Well, I suppose आप could consider her a friend of ours. Even though a single दिन never goes द्वारा without her and Skipper arguing. But she’s okay, compared to some of the other जानवर in this zoo.” [Me: *points neon sign at Julien and clears throat*]
“Oh.” Ravena stared at the ground for a moment, and then started to laugh.
Kowalski stopped dead in his tracks and stared at her.
“…What?” Ravena said, looking concerned. “What’s wrong? What happened?”
“That laugh.” He was talking और to himself than to her. “I haven’t heard that laugh since…” His expression turned distant, as if he was remembering something a long time ago.
Ravena’s दिल skipped a beat. So…does he remember? She slowly nodded her head, waiting for him to finish his sentence. And then—
“Hey, Kowalski, what’s up?”
Both Ravena and Kowalski jumped into fighting position. Kowalski relaxed when he saw that it was only Marlene, but Ravena stayed where she was.
“Kowalski, who’s that?” Ravena asked. “That’s Marlene, the ऊद, ओटर, ऊदबिलाव I told आप about a few सेकंड्स ago,” he reminded her.
“Oh…right…” Ravena blushed a little bit. I have got to stop thinking so hard, I’m forgetting everything!
The brown and white ऊद, ओटर, ऊदबिलाव swam over and hopped out of her habitat.
“Who’s the new penguin?”
“This is Ravena. She arrived this morning.”
Marlene smiled. “Hi, Ravena! I’m Marlene. It’s nice to finally have another girl to talk to.” She held out her paw and Ravena took it, now smiling.
“So, where’s Skipper and everyone else?”
“They’re back at our habitat. Rico’s making a बिस्तर for Ravena and Skipper is making sure he doesn’t cause any collateral damage.”
Marlene rolled her eyes. “Nothing too out of the ordinary, then.”
Ravena laughed again. Kowalski looked over at her. He was still trying to figure out where he heard that laugh from before.
“I’m just दिखा रहा है her around the zoo right now.”
“Did आप take her to the बंदर, लेमूर habitat yet?” When Kowalski shook his head, Marlene smirked.
“What? Why? Who’s at the बंदर, लेमूर habitat?”Ravena asked, her curiosity surfacing.
“Well…you’ll know when आप get there, won’t you? Nice meeting you, Ravena, bye, Kowalski!” And with that, Marlene left towards the पेंगुइन habitat. Ravena turned to Kowalski.
“Kowalski, who’s at the बंदर, लेमूर habitat?”
“Lemurs,” Kowalski said. “That seems obvious.”
“I know that, but what kind of lemurs are there? What are their names? What are they like? Come on, let’s see!” She began pulling Kowalski in the opposite direction of the बंदर, लेमूर habitat.
“Ravena.”
“What?” She looked at him.
He pointed behind him. “The बंदर, लेमूर habitat is that way.”
Ravena blushed again. She’s an easy blusher, Kowalski thought. That also reminds me of someone…
“Ha ha…sorry. Okay, आप lead the way then!”
******Five और मिनटों later…********
Kowalski and Ravena looked up at the बंदर, लेमूर habitat for a few seconds.
“…Are आप going to need any help getting up?” Kowalski asked Ravena.
She frowned. “What makes आप think I need help getting up there? Is it because I’m a girl? Cause let me tell आप something, then—“
“No, that wasn’t it!” Kowalski interrupted, holding his hands up. From what he saw of Marlene’s temper and his analysis of Ravena so far, he didn’t want to get her mad. “I just wasn’t sure if you’ve done this before.”
“Oh.” Ravena smiled. “Okay, then. But I can get up myself just fine.”
[Does this sound familiar? ...Of course it doesn’t, because आप guys have never read Operation: Heartbreaker! Muhahahaha!...I’m sorry…]
She backed up a few steps, she took a running jump and somersaulted onto the lemur’s habitat platform.
Kowalski whistled. “Wow.” [Wait a minute…can penguins whistle?]
Ravena beamed. “Thank you!” Then she spun around. “Hey, guys, I’m the new pen..guin?” She looked around. “…Where are they?”
Kowalski jumped up अगला to her and pointed below them. All three lemurs were on their bouncy.
Ravena’s eyes lit up mischievously. “Ooh, I want a piece of that!”
And without another word, she jumped off the platform and onto the bouncy.
She landed with such force that all three lemurs flew off the bouncy and landed hard on the ground.
King Julien, very annoyed at this interruption, straightened his crown and said, “Who is daring to be bouncing the king that is me off of his royal bouncy?”
Ravena smiled and waved a flipper. “Hi, I’m Ravena! I’m new here and I just wanted to meet आप guys!”
King Julien looked her up and down. “Another silly flightless bird?”
“Yeah—what?” Ravena looked at Kowalski, who gave her a look that said, Just don’t ask.
After a few और सेकंड्स of eyeing her, King Julien snapped his fingers.
“Okay, silly flightless girly bird. आप may now commence with the worshipping of me.”
The look on Ravena’s face was priceless. She gave a humorless laugh, and then asked, “What? I’m not worshipping you!”
“Of course आप are to be worshipping me, silly penguin. The sky spirits told me that I’d be receiving another loyal royal follower, and द्वारा processing of the elimination, it must be you. So hop to it!”
Ravena looked incredulously at Mort and Maurice. Maurice shrugged. “I’d just go with it if I were you,” he said.
“I like worshipping!” piped up Mort.
Ravena’s beak twitched dangerously, and she smirked. “All right, King Julien. How’s about I start द्वारा putting my loyal foot up your royal—“
“Okay, I think we should be reporting back to headquarters now,” Kowalski कहा hurriedly, putting a flipper over Ravena’s beak to prevent her from saying anymore. He began leading her away from the lemurs.
“Be sure to be practicing the groveling at my feet, girly flightless bird!”
King Julien called, completely unaware that his life was previously in danger.
Mort smiled. “I like groveling at the feet!” He reached for King Julien’s feet, who immediately flung Mort halfway across the zoo.
Kowalski and Ravena were walking back towards the पेंगुइन habitat.
“Hey, why are we going back? I didn’t see the whole zoo yet!” Ravena asked.
“Given your present temperament, I decided it would be best if we continued another time…when you’re less irritable.”
“Oh, good point,” Ravena agreed. Then she crossed her flippers. “ But the अगला time that बंदर, लेमूर comes near me talking about worshipping him, he’s getting decked.”
*******Scene change: Back at the HQ*********
Ravena and Kowalski came down the hatch into the penguins’ secret base. [It is a secret, right?]
“Fish and chips, man, you’re back early! What did आप guys do, fly around the zoo?” Skipper asked.
“Actually, Skipper, since we are penguins, it would be biologically impossible for us to be able to fly around anywhere, much less the—“
“I know, soldier, it was a joke.” Skipper rolled his eyes. Kowalski was book smart, but when it came to stuff like this…
“Hello, Ravena!” exclaimed Private. “Rico’s just finished making your bed!” He pointed to a fifth rectangular bunk in the side of the wall, and Rico, who looked a little disappointed that he didn’t get to blow anything up. [I feel your pain, dude…]
“Private! Are आप always going to go around telling everyone our secrets?” asked Skipper.
“…But that wasn’t a secret, sir,” Private answered, looking hurt.
“Oh. Sorry. I’m just kind of used to आप doing that.”
“I’m sorry, Skippah,” Private said.
“Not to worry, Private, it’s just a habit you’re gonna have to break. Now, seriously, why are आप two back so early?” Skipper asked, turning back to Kowalski and Ravena.
“Well, everything was going fine until we reached the बंदर, लेमूर habitat.”
Skipper nodded knowingly. “Ringtail, huh? So what happened? Did he try to make आप pledge your eternal loyalty to him?”
“Something along those lines. Kowalski got me outta there before I could damage a little और than his ego…and even that seems impossible.”
“I hear you, “Skipper said. “I think we all have wanted to give His Majesty the royal beatdown at some point in time.”
“I was hoping that Kowalski could give me the tour some other day”, Ravena said.
“We’ll have to fit that in with our training schedule, but आप might be able to.”
“Training schedule?”
“Well, आप see, as an elite force, we need to be in चोटी, शीर्ष physical condition.”
“An elite force? Really?” Ravena’s eyes went wide with wonder. “Wow, that’s gotta be the coolest—“
She looked over at Kowalski, who was sitting in a corner, tinkering with a mess of metal and wires.
Ravena walked up to him. “….Um is that a time machine?”
Kowalski blinked, but didn’t look up. “…Yes it is.”
“Can I help आप with it?”
That made Kowalski look up. No one had ever asked to help with his experiments and inventions, mostly for fear of losing a vital organ या something. “You really want to help?”
“Sure! I प्यार making inventions!” She sat down अगला to him. Then she frowned. “Um…you’ve got your wires crossed the wrong way.”
“What?”
She picked up a set of red and purple wires. “You crossed these wires the wrong way. If आप plug them in here, this light’ll flash yellow,” she plugged the wires into a socket, and the light on चोटी, शीर्ष of the time machine glowed yellow, “and you’ll end up tearing a hole in space, not time. If आप पार करना, क्रॉस them this way…”
She pulled the wires apart and began twisting them together in the opposite direction. “…Then the light’s gonna flash green, which will make आप good to go for time travel once the rest of the machine is finished. But actually the thought of a dimension-crossing machine sounds really interesting…” She plugged the re-crossed wires into the wall, and the light flashed green. “Ta-da!”
Kowalski’s jaw dropped. Of all the things Ravena had done and said, nothing amazed him और than this.
“…Wow,” he कहा after a while. “Thanks for telling me that.”
“No problem,” Ravena replied, glowing. “Now we can start on the—“
“Ringtail!” Skipper barked, catching everyone’s attention.
“Oh, for the प्यार of…” Ravena rolled her eyes and turned around.
Standing near the refrigerator was the royal pain himself, flanked द्वारा Mort and Maurice.
“Do not to be worrying, testy penguin. I was merely taking your delicious cake for my—“
“Can it, Ringtail. How many times do we have to tell you, that खाना is not and will never be for you. Do I have to set Rico on you?”
Rico looked up, and hacked up a flamethrower, laughing maniacally.
King Julien didn’t seem to care. “There is no need for the opening of the hostilities, flightless bird. And speaking of flightless birds…” King Julien had spotted Ravena.
“Sweet supernova, if आप value your life, आप won’t say anything to me, lemur,” Ravena कहा under her breath. But—
“Are आप coming to your senses and being ready to worship the royal King that is—“
Julien never finished his sentence, because Ravena had wordlessly marched over to him and sucker-punched him in the face. Julien fell to the ground, out cold.
There was a long silence, in which everyone stared at Ravena. “He had it coming to him,” was her only explanation.
After a while everyone except Mort, who was taking this opportunity to hug Julien’s feet uninterrupted, began to laugh.
“You can say that again,” Skipper said.
Kowalski looked at Ravena, a smile still on his face. “Ravena, I’d like to do a psyche screening with आप tomorrow. Is that okay?”
“As long as it doesn’t hurt, it’s all right with me.”
Ravena watched as Kowalski walked over to Skipper. A smile pulled at her beak, too.
You’ve really come a long way, Kowalski. I wonder how long it will take आप to remember me, she thought.
…Finally, I’m done. There’s a lot of things in this chapter that need explaining, but I’ll do that अगला chapter. First off, let me get down on my knees and beg for आप guys’ forgiveness in taking so long to update. I had to face off against the flu, massive writer’s block, and…shudder…high school. But hopefully I’ll get started on Chapter 3 Monday. Until then, constructive criticism, not destructive criticism. I had a lot of mixed feelings about this extremely long chapter, so I’d प्यार your opinions on it. Please review!
That’s all I gotta say, so Sayonara for now! ^^

“You can say that again,” Skipper said.
Kowalski looked at Ravena, a smile still on his face. “Ravena, I’d like to do a psyche screening with आप tomorrow. Is that okay?”
“As long as it doesn’t hurt, it’s all right with me.”
Ravena watched as Kowalski walked over to Skipper. A smile pulled at her beak, too.
You’ve really come a long way, Kowalski. I wonder how long it will take आप to remember me, she thought.
…Finally, I’m done. There’s a lot of things in this chapter that need explaining, but I’ll do that अगला chapter. First off, let me get down on my knees and beg for आप guys’ forgiveness in taking so long to update. I had to face off against the flu, massive writer’s block, and…shudder…high school. But hopefully I’ll get started on Chapter 3 Monday. Until then, constructive criticism, not destructive criticism. I had a lot of mixed feelings about this extremely long chapter, so I’d प्यार your opinions on it. Please review!
That’s all I gotta say, so Sayonara for now! ^^
