Prologue: I've Once Met a Dragon Fly

It was a quiet dag in the central park zoo. Not a creature made noise. It was almost like a peaceful dag in the zoo, where Kowalski and Rico weren't blowing things up, Skipper wasn't yelling at insects, and Private wasn't playing with his Lunicorns.

At Marlene's Habitat

"Gee. I wonder why it's so quiet. I would have heard noises door now. Maybe I should go visit the penguins" Marlene thought.

So Marlene grabbed a soda and headed towards the pinguïn habitat. Nobody was on the outside. Marlene was worried that Alice may notice. She tried to verplaats the food bowl, but it seemed to be stuck. Maybe glued to the ground. Something wasn't right.

"Julien, do u know what happened to the penguins?" asked Marlene.

"I don't have the slightest clue of what happened. Now if u will be excusing me, I am going to try and pry Mort off of my foot." Julien replied.

"Some help he was." zei Marlene, frusterated.

Suddenly, a dragon fly flew door Marlene.

"Hey Otter, u lookin' for somethin'?" he said.

"I'm looking for my friends. Have u seen the penguins?" Marlene asked.

"Funny to mention, I was flyin' door and heard some noises. I think it was the pinguïn habitat I flew door and noticed somebody glueing the food bowl to a hole. Maybe he tried to fix it of somethin'. I didn't quite get who he was. of she. How the heck would I know." Explained the Dragon Fly.

"Maybe u could help me. Who are you, anyways?" Marlene curiously said.

"My name is Scouter Richie, but u could call me Scouter. of Richie. of Scrichie, I don't care. Which ever one ya like sister." zei Scouter.

"Okay, Scouter. My name's Marlene. We need to figure out another way to get in the pinguïn lair. Maybe we can cook up a plan at my place at midnight. u in?" Marlene said.

"You bet. I hope this gets exciting." Scouter zei with joy.

Marlene waited all night, wondering if there was any hope in finding the penguins in their lair. If not, what would she do?
