Outside, Alice threw us the fish. I didn't get many, though. After all, there were many of us.
After Alice had gegeven us the fish, she counted us. After counting me, she counted again. And again.
"Huh," she said. "Yesterday there were only five penguins."
She took out a SmartPhone and clicked away on it. I really hoped that the records had changed right. I watched her, while I was hoping and wishing.
Ivy walked up to me and asked me what was wrong. I nodded. She asked me again. I kept watching Alice, then Ivy realized.
"Don't worry," she said. "I know what this feels like."
I turned around and looked at her.
"You snuck in here, too?"
"No," she said. "I shipped myself here. Alice didn't really notice, so I got worried. But now I know..."
"She doesn't really care," I finished.
"Exactly," Ivy said. "You know, we may have meer in common than I thought."
"Uh, okay," I said.
"Oh, there are six penguins," Alice said. "Whatever."
Then she walked away.

"Good, now u can finally finish your story," Private said.
"And with no interruptions," Skipper said.
Everyone sat down again. I waited for Rico to calm down. As always, he had had too many fish.
"Hey, are u going to finish your story of what?" Ivy exclaimed.
"Sorry, I was just waiting for Rico to calm down," I said.
"Rico never calms down," Skipper said. "I think u should have remembered that."
"Hey!" Rico said.
"Guys, stop, just let Johnson finish his story!" Ivy cried.
Everybody quieted down. Rico muttered something that I just
couldn't make out. Oh, yeah. Rico never really did calm down.
"Okay, so the girl brought me to a room, where a vet examined me. She put a bandage over my wing, then wondered aloud how I had got there.
Then she left the room, and came back in with a small cage. She stuffed me in it, and put me out with the other animals."
"So u did become one of those..." Kowalski started.
"SSHHHHH!!!" Ivy exclaimed. "For crying out loud! Am I the only one who wants to hear this story?"
"Nevermind them," Private said. "They're like that all the time."
"Okay. So, I'll , finish," I slowly said. "I stayed in the cage for a few hours, then the girl came back and took me out. She played with me and made me a little bed.
I stayed living that life for a few years. Then, I remembered u guys, and how much I missed you. I escaped and after about four years, found home.
I'm back to present time, story's over."
"Can u repeat that, I wasn't listening," Skipper said, in stress.
Ivy and Kowalski were still arguing. Skipper was trying to separate them, and it wasn't going so well.
"Okay, just a sec," I said.
For a few seconds, I sat on the floor. I remembered all my good times and my hardships. I knew that this was one of the good times.
I was glad to be home.

(P.S. Johnson should be in all my other fan-fics and stories.)
