Note: The following “article” contains the first 10 pieces in a 100-day-long nghề viết văn project I am currently involved in on FanFiction.net. In the project, I am nghề viết văn one 200-word “double-drabble” story related to “The Penguins of Madagascar” each and every ngày from February 1 until May 11, 2010. Every 10 days, I đăng lên a new batch of 10 of these little stories on FanFiction.net. Below are the first 10 (written from February 1-10, 2010). If bạn enjoy these stories and would like to read thêm of them, please follow this link link. bạn can also read the full danh sách of rules that I imposed on myself for the project at that link.
..................................................
1.) February 1, 2010: “A Ninja’s Worst Enemy”
“Hey, guys!” Marlene greeted as she entered the penguins’ habitat to find the team yet again practicing defense drills with bowling pins disguised as ninjas. “Still playing with the bowling pins, eh?”
“Marlene, how many times do I have to tell bạn that these bowling pins represent evil ninja warriors?” Skipper wondered, but in a friendly way, as he then turned to his men. “Show no mercy, boys.”
Upon hearing Skipper’s order, Private punched down two of the pins while Rico toppled four with a karate chop. Next, Kowalski gave a kick to take down the remaining four.
“Three penguins to knock down 10 bowling pins,” Marlene chuckled. “That’s interesting.”
“Oh, really?” Skipper đã đưa ý kiến sarcastically. “If bạn think bạn can do better, be my guest.”
“OK,” Marlene replied. “Set them up.”
Skipper waddled over to the pile of bowling pins and set them up, then returned to Marlene.
“All right, Marlene, hiển thị me what bạn got,” he said.
Marlene then pulled out a bowling ball and stuck her fingers in the finger holes. She then lined the ball up and released it toward the pins.
“Strike!” Rico exclaimed from across the platform.
“And that’s how it’s done, Skipper,” Marlene stated.

2.) February 2, 2010: “Otter Day”
“OK, gentlemen, let’s be very, very quiet,” Skipper đã đưa ý kiến to the other penguins, the lemurs, and the chimps as they all gathered outside of Marlene’s cave before sunrise. “We don’t want to wake up Marlene before her big moment.”
Skipper then carefully led the group into Marlene’s home; upon entering it, everyone gathered around Marlene’s giường and began staring at the sleeping con rái cá, rái cá with great anticipation.
“Eh, how long do we have to wait?” Julien asked.
“Until Marlene wakes up,” Kowalski replied. “Then we’ll see if she sees her shadow hoặc not so we can predict if we’ll be having six thêm weeks of winter hoặc an early spring.”
Marlene then rolled in her bed.
“This is it,” Skipper said.
Marlene opened her eyes.
“Aaahh!” she screamed as she awoke, not expecting the crowd in her home. “What are bạn all doing here, and what’s with the hàng đầu, đầu trang hats?”
“It’s Groundhog Day,” Private replied. “We’ve come to learn your prediction.”
“Guys, I’m an otter,” Marlene stated. “I don’t make predictions.”
“Look right tiếp theo to you, Marlene,” Skipper said. “Do bạn see your shadow?”
“Yeah, but–” Marlene began.
“Prediction made, boys,” Skipper declared. “Six thêm weeks of winter it shall be.”

3.) February 3, 2010: “State of the Zoo”
Each năm bởi tradition, one week after the presidential State of the Union address, Skipper would give his annual State of the Zoo message at the zoovenir shop. This năm was no different.
“Ladies and gentlemen, the chim cánh cụt Leader of the Central Park Zoo,” Private announced from the shop’s doorway as Skipper entered the applause-filled room.
Skipper then waddled down to the front of the room, where a podium had been set-up for his address. Behind him sat Kowalski, his Lieutenant Leader, and Marlene, his Secretary of State. He shook both of their appendages before addressing the crowd.
“Ladies and gentlemen, mammals and lower mammals, thank bạn for joining me tonight,” he said. “I’ve led my men on many exciting missions over the past year. Among them include watching a duck’s egg, getting rid of an obnoxious walrus spy, and restoring the bắp rang bơ, bỏng ngô flow to zoo residents.”
Everyone politely clapped at Skipper’s statement, but Marlene was especially enthused bởi the bắp rang bơ, bỏng ngô one.
“Yes, popcorn!” she stood up and shouted. “Three cheers for the chim cánh cụt Leader! Hip-hip, hooray! Hip-hip, hooray! Hip–”
But she stopped when the crowd fell silent and began to stare.
“Ah, carry on, Skipper,” she said, sitting down.

4.) February 4, 2010: “Insubordination?”
After a morning of rigorous training, Skipper led his men back into the HQ.
“Boys, I think we’ve earned a short break,” he đã đưa ý kiến as took a ghế, chỗ ngồi in a chair. “If anyone needs me, I’ll be sitting over here.”
A few phút later, Private waddled over.
“Can I help bạn with something, Private?” Skipper asked.
“Just hold on, sir,” Private said. “This should only take me a second.”
“What should only take–” Skipper began to ask, but he was suddenly slapped in the face bởi Private.
“Private, what do bạn think you’re doing?!” Skipper yelled. “That’s insubordination, mister!”
“But, sir, I just–” Private began, but Skipper didn’t want to hear it.
“No excuses, soldier!” Skipper barked. “I’m your commanding officer, and I thought we were friends!”
“But, Skipper, listen,” Private persisted. “Please?”
“Fine, Private, what is it?” Skipper conceded.
“There was this bug on your face, sir,” Private đã đưa ý kiến as he showed Skipper the bug’s splattered remnants on his flipper. “I was only trying to help.”
“Well, that does explain things,” Skipper replied.
“So you’re not mad?” Private asked.
“No,” Skipper chuckled. “But that was a pretty good slap.”
Private smiled.
“I learned from the best, sir,” he said.
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
5.) February 5, 2010: “Odd Man Out”
“Ooh, what are bạn guys watching on the telly?” Private asked the other three penguins upon returning to the HQ from a short mission that Skipper had sent him on.
“It’s a DVD of the movie ‘March of the–’” Kowalski began before Skipper interrupted.
“Kowalski!” he exclaimed. “Didn’t we already decide not to tell Private?”
“Oh, right,” Kowalski remembered.
“Yup,” Rico said.
Private then waddled over to Skipper, who looked up at him before pausing the movie.
“Sir, why can’t I know?” Private inquired.
“It’s nothing personal, soldier,” Skipper replied. “It’s just that bạn may be a bit too young to watch this movie.”
Private sighed.
“Fine, sir,” he said. “I guess I’ll go back out for a while so bạn all can finish the film.”
Private then waddled over to the ladder and climbed it up to the platform outside.
A short time later, Maurice came by.
“You seen King Julien around?” he asked.
“No,” Private replied. “Sorry, Maurice.”
“OK,” Maurice said. “Say, what are bạn doin’ up there all bởi yourself anyway?”
“The guys won’t let me watch ‘March of the Penguins,’” Private replied as he chuckled. “Of course, they don’t know that I’ve already seen it twice.”

6.) February 6, 2010: “World’s Greatest Mammal”
Julien and Mort entered Marlene’s habitat one morning to find the con rái cá, rái cá drinking from a coffee mug which had “World’s Greatest Mammal” printed on it in big red letters.
“Where did bạn get that?” Julien gasped as he snatched the mug from Marlene’s paws, causing the coffee to slosh onto the floor. “It obviously belongs to the king, which is me.”
“No, it’s mine,” Marlene đã đưa ý kiến as she yanked it back. “It was a gift.”
“But I am certainly the world’s greatest mammal,” Julien declared as he tugged the mug away again.
“Julien, be careful,” Marlene đã đưa ý kiến worriedly as she grasped the cup. “Skipper gave me that mug – it’s very special to me.”
“But I’m king, so gimmie!” Julien insisted as he continued pulling on it, causing it to fall out of both of their hands.
Just as Marlene was about to watch her yêu thích mug shatter against the floor, Mort caught it.
“Yay!” he cheered.
“Good Mort,” Julien said. “Now hand that mug back to me.”
But Mort just couldn’t do the wrong thing.
“No, it belongs to Marlene,” he đã đưa ý kiến as he handed it to her, then turned to Julien. “But I’ll get bạn one for your birthday.”

7.) February 7, 2010: “Cannibal Run”
“So bạn boys really thought that I, your friend and commanding officer, was trying to eat your brains?” Skipper asked his men as they all lay on a giường in the veterinary office after having all fallen from a rooftop, breaking their flippers.
“Well,” Kowalski began, “with those bandages wrapped around your body, combined with your incoherent state, we just naturally assumed bạn were a zombie determined to dine on the contents of our craniums.”
“Really?” was all Skipper could reply.
“Skipper,” Private then said, “would bạn ever eat any of us if we were stranded somewhere and had no thực phẩm to survive?”
“Private!” Kowalski scolded. “I knew I never should have let bạn read that Donner Party chapter in my encyclopedia.”
“That’s OK, Kowalski, he can ask,” Skipper stated. “The answer is no, Private, I could never resort to cannibalizing my own men.”
“But what if bạn were the only survivor and your life depended on it?” Private continued.
Skipper shuddered at the thought.
“Listen, Private, we’re all a team; if I Mất tích any one of you, I wouldn’t last too long anyway,” Skipper spoke sincerely. “It’s just not in my tim, trái tim to have bạn guys in my stomach.”

8.) February 8, 2010: “You Owe Me”
Two weeks after she had been railroaded into participating in Kowalski’s Luv-u-Lator experiment, Marlene walked into the penguins’ HQ.
“Kowalski, it’s time,” she announced upon entering. “You do owe me for testing your love-finding machine, and today’s the day.”
All four penguins then approached Marlene.
“A deal is a deal, Marlene,” Kowalski said. “What did bạn have in mind?”
Marlene smirked.
“Oh, just a little taste of your own medicine,” she đã đưa ý kiến as she turned to Rico. “Rico: Spit fishin’ time.”
Rico looked to Skipper, unsure if he should accept an order from anyone else.
“You heard the lady,” Skipper replied, thus granting Rico permission.
As Rico then hacked-up a cotton swab, Kowalski took a step back.
“You can’t do this to me!” Kowalski declared. “I’m a scientist!”
But Rico had his orders.
“Say aah,” he đã đưa ý kiến as he swabbed inside Kowalski’s bill.
After obtaining the DNA sample, Rico placed the swab inside the Luv-u-Lator, which Kowalski had ultimately decided to recover from the trash can he had thrown it in. Little did Kowalski know that Marlene had conspired with Skipper the ngày before to rig the results as a practical joke.
“Subject not compatible,” the machine beeped and read.

9.) February 9, 2010: “Mirror Madness”
“I tình yêu you,” Julien đã đưa ý kiến aloud as he pointed toward himself while looking at his reflection in the new mirror that he had hung on the wall.
Julien then pointed at his reflection.
“I tình yêu bạn more!” he đã đưa ý kiến before pointing back at himself. “No, I tình yêu bạn more!”
He then pointed back at his reflection.
“No, I tình yêu bạn more!” he đã đưa ý kiến before repeating this pattern over and over, louder and louder each time. “No, I tình yêu bạn more! No, I tình yêu bạn more!”
It became so loud that the penguins heard it from atop their habitat’s platform, and after 25 phút of listening to it, they had all had enough.
“I can’t it take anymore!” Skipper declared as he looked at his team. “Let’s roll.”
Moments later, the penguins entered the vong linh, vượn cáo habitat and approached the self-absorbed king.
“I tình yêu bạn more!” Julien continued with his mirror routine before pointing at Skipper. “Eh, but I don’t tình yêu bạn more.”
Skipper then began to lung lay, swing a hammer toward the mirror before Julien stopped him.
“What in the name of me are bạn doing?!” he questioned. “Do bạn want seven years of bad luck?”
“It’ll be worth it,” Skipper declared.
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
10.) February 10, 2010: “Clouds”
Skipper waddled past Marlene’s habitat one morning, noticing Marlene lying on her back and staring into the sky.
“What are bạn doing, Marlene?” Skipper inquired.
“Spotting đám mây shapes,” she replied. “Haven’t bạn ever done that before?”
“Can’t say I have,” Skipper answered.
“Then come try it,” Marlene said. “Come on, Skipper, live a little.”
Skipper was a bit skeptical if this was appropriate behavior for a military leader, but he decided to try it anyway. He entered Marlene’s habitat and lay down beside her.
“OK, Skipper, I think that one looks like a carousel horse,” Marlene said, pointing at a cloud.
“Nah,” Skipper replied. “Looks thêm like a crossbow to me.”
“Crossbow?” Marlene whispered sarcastically. “How lovely.”
She then pointed at another cloud.
“How about this one?” she said. “I see an elephant.”
“I see a tank,” Skipper replied. “Hey, I’m starting to like this.”
Marlene realized that she and Skipper had different ways of seeing things, but she was still glad that he had joined her. But suddenly Marlene saw a đám mây shape she just couldn’t deny.
“Look, Skipper,” she pointed, “a nuclear nấm cloud.”
“Nope,” Skipper replied. “I see a heart.”
Maybe they weren’t so different after all.
