NOTE: This is pretty short, but I wanted to have a cliffhanger before the probably last chapter.

They headed phía trước, chuyển tiếp and circled the building. A window got the penguins' attention. Marlene stood watching them through it. Private waved joyously. "Hi, Marlene!" He called. Rico hacked up a grabbling gun and shot it at the window. Under the pressure of the hook the window shattered. They all grabbed on and were hoisted up. They landed on their feet in "ready-postion". Before anything else happened, Marlene grasped Skipper's flipper uncomfortably tight.


"Marlene, don't worry we're going to resc-" Skipper đã đưa ý kiến but before he finished she threw him over her head. He hit his head on the màu hồng, hồng carpeted floor. Just then the door flung open. Hans strode in clapping tiếp theo to Antonio.


"Yes, but who's going to rescue you?"


"Hans!"


"Skipper,"


"What have bạn done to her?!" Skipper growled.


"How about bạn ask Kowalski." Antonio snickered.


"Kowalski?!" Skipper cried in a betrayed voice.


"I didn't do anything I swear!" Kowalski exclaimed.


"I'll give bạn a hint since bạn all are too dimwitted to figure it out. I found an old blueprint in your lab." Antonio snarled.


"Wait, bạn zapped her with the 'Lovulator'!" Kowalski announced.


"Correct, I'm madly in tình yêu with Hans! I never realized how thêm handesome he is than you, Skipper." Marlene đã đưa ý kiến walking to Hans, who put his arm around her. Skipper attacked Hans, but Marlene dug her razor-sharp claws into his back. Rico got into flipper to paw combat with her. The other two penguins fought Antonio. Hans and Skipper tussled into a gigantic room filled with lazers, levers, and trapdoors. Hans grabbed a cá đuối, ray gun.


"Wait, what happened to the fish?" Skipper questioned.


"Well, last time bạn brought that lazer thing. So are we doing cá hoặc actual weapons? Make up your mind!" Hans said. Skipper took this opportunity to grab a lazer for himself. Hans pulled a lever and stood smiling deviously.


"Again, with the puzzling smile?!" Skipper exclaimed.


"You might not want to shoot that lazer."


"Oh, yeah, why not?" Skipper đã đưa ý kiến and turned around. What he saw made him paralyzed with fear. Antonio had his team tied up. He held them with one hand over a pool, but it got worse. A blubbery black object with a fin and a white spot skimmed the hàng đầu, đầu trang of the water. Then a killer cá voi jumped six feet in the air, above the penguins.


"No, Hans, bạn have to let them go! If you're going to feed anyone to that orca it should be me." Skipper said.



"You know what, Skipper? I'm going to give bạn a chance. You, your team, and .... Marlene can walk out of here unharmed, if bạn can get her to like you, again." Hans đã đưa ý kiến nudging Marlene forward, "you also may talk to her in that room, but bạn only get a minute."



"But if I fail, can I take my team's place, and they go free."


"They can't go free, but bạn can die for them. They'll make useful slaves." Hans said. Skipper turned to his team with sorrowful eyes.


"I'm so sorry."


"Boo woo, alright. Enough with the sappy 'goodbyes'. Your team and your life is on the line. No Pressure!
