Chapter 3: Back at HQ and so Forth

    Private smiled with Glee and he waddled over to Cadet, who was now bởi the cây as Rico had left her to hear what Skipper and Kowalski were conversing about. "Great news, Cadet, Skipper đã đưa ý kiến that bạn can come and stay with us!"

Cadet looked shocked. "Stay with bạn but..." her voice trailed off in sadness.

Private's smile soon vanished. "But what?" He asked in a sad tone. Surely she wanted to be somewhere warm and secure.

"It's just that, I can't leave Central Park." Her voice a bit shakened with saddness. "It is where I was born at. Plus it's the only thing that reminds me of my mother." Cadet ears flattened, and she looked away.

Putting his wing around her shoulder, Private tried his best to think of a reason for her to come. "But Kowalski đã đưa ý kiến that if bạn stay here bạn wouldn't last two weeks in the wheather," seeing that it wasn't helping, he continued, "Plus I bet that your mother would want bạn to di chuyển on and live a good life."

After a few giây she thought. Then finally she answered. "I guess you're right."

Private's smile came back, but he didn't notice that Skipper had waddled up to them "So it's settled" obviously he had heard the conversation. "Roll out boys!" Then he heard Cadet clear her throat. Rolling his eyes he continued,"and Cadet."

(Back at HQ)

The penguins had no trouble getting back to the zoo, well except for Cadet, who had a hard time jumping in the rising snow on the ground, leaving craters. Skipper waisted no time into telling Cadet who was in charge. "Ok, vixen, here are the rules in my HQ. Rule 1) This team wakes up early at 0600 hours. Rule 2) As of waking up at đã đưa ý kiến time we hit the cỏ khô, hay at 10:00 PM. Rule 3) There is no questioning the leader of anything classified."

Cadet cocked her head. "and that would be..."

Thrusting his head phía trước, chuyển tiếp so that they where merely inches away Skipper glared in her ngọc lục bảo green eyes with ice cold blue ones, which made Cadet flinch . "That's classified, mammal." He stood back up straight and put his flippers behind his back as he marched back and forth saying stuff about thêm rules.

Mumbleing and looking away from Skipper, Cadet let out a low growl,"I have a name..."

Skipper stopped dead in his, it was obvious that Cadet didn't say that low enough. "That leads me to Rule 12) No back sass to the commanding officer. Listen, fox, if bạn are too live with us until bạn can fend for yourself, then bạn live bởi my rules bạn got that."

As Cadet opened her jaw to object, Kowalski slipped to Skipper's side. "Sir, I am gonna remind bạn that it is 4:30 at night, it would be wise to go to bed."

Skipper stared at his liutenant then signed. "Right. Private get your guest a cái gối, gối and a blanket and let her pick her spot to sleep." At that Private saluted and ran off to the the extra room. Skipper eyed Cadet as she
made her way up the steps to where the parascope was. His eyes softened as he saw her vòng tròn around which looked like she was chasing her tail. "Well, isn't that just the cutest..." at that he shook his head, and headed for the bunk closest to the floor.

As Cadet got settled she looked at Skipper as he turned his back to her getting ready to fall asleep. Her ears soon went down.

Private then came back from the room with a blanket and a pillow, heading toward Cadet. "There bạn are Cadet, a nice fluffed up cái gối, gối and a comfey blanket to keep bạn warm." He immedately saw the look of sorrow on her face. "Something bothering you, Cadet?"

"Skipper doesn't want me here..." Her voice trailed off.

At that Private snickered a bit. The chồn cái, vixen quickly looked up a bit confused. "And what's so funny about that?"

He patted her head. "Skipper doesn't trust any one new that comes to the zoo. Especailly one that comes, that he doesn't have a background story to. Trust me it will be fine once Skipper could see past his paranoia."

With a big yawn, Cadet put her head on the cái gối, gối that Private set for her. "Ok, I'll try to stay on his good side. But I'll tell bạn one thing, I'm totally innocent."

Catching her yawn Private felt sleepier than ever. "That would be the best. Plus now that you're here I can finally get some sleep, and know that you're safe... Good night, Cadet".

Closing her eyes she returned the saying,"good night, Private." Cadet smiled as as she heard Private crawling into his bunk. She had to admit, this was way better than sleeping outside. Though, to think that her new friend's Những người bạn would actually let her stay with them. That was a big favor, how could she repay them? This câu hỏi lingered in her mind for about 10 phút before she started to drift in and out of
sleep.

The câu hỏi wasn't the only thing that kept her from sleeping, oddly enough she had a slight pain that she had in her mouth. A pain like her teeth were getting pulled out.....
