Author note: I own nothing!-Wait I own Kendra! I own nothing but Kendra! Sorry this chapter is so short. There should be two more chapters after this one.
*Aquatic*
-Enter Kendra
"Skippah what are you all talking about?" Private asked. He had never seen his leader look so defeated before. It scared.
"Skipper, I have no idea what you and Marlene are talking about but we have to act fast," Kowalski turned to talk to Marlene, "Marlene I'm not sure what mirages have anything to do with this but this surely the hand-work of Dr. Blowhole. Now then go home so that we can handle this."
Marlene glowered, "You have no idea what you're up against. The moment that you walk in there, well the only place that would be worse than there would be the depths of hell itself." The tone of her voice caused shivers to go up and down their spines. It was unnerving and somehow they knew she was right.
"Well then what is an Aquatic?" Private asked nerviously. This was all begining to scare the young penguin.
"Aquatic are...are...are..." Skipper didn't want to break his promiss to Marlene, but he felt that they needed to know.
"I'm an Aquatic." Marlene's voice was calm and steady.
"Well yes Marlene we all know that you're an aquatic mammal and we are aquatic birds but what it is that you and Skipper are talking about?" Kowalski asked.
"Not that kind of Aquatic. You know how for the past few weeks there have been some rumors flying around about me being a mermaid-" clouds suddenly covered the sun.
Pefect timing! Marlene thought.
Without a second thought she jumped into the fountain and almost immediatly steam started to come from the water. Kowalski, Rico, and Private were all yelling at her to get out and that it was dangerous. Skipper looked at her like she was crazy. Although he looked relieved that he wouldn't have to lie to his team any more.
Finally the steam cleared and the others gaped at the same sight Skipper had been greeted with. Marlene the mermaid.
"You're-but-how!" they all said together.
"No time to explain!" Skipper yelled pulling Marlene out of the fountain. "We need to find a way to gaet rid of that thing."
"Its a Mirage Skipper and thousands of them. All Beta class. We need a full fledged aquatic." Marlene sighed. "I wish my mentor was here..."
"Mentor?" Private asked.
"Yes, all fledgings are a signed mentors. They train us to fight Mirages but as fledglings we can only defeat Zeta class Mirages and ones that are too weak to fall into classification. Beta's and Alphas are the top of the top. My mentor could stop them...I wish she were here-"
"What you honestly thought I couldn't sense this many Betas Marlene? Tsk...tsk...tsk! What have I told about assuming Little Marley!" the voice belonged to to a girl, though at the moment she seemed to be hiding.
Marlene smiled, "Kendra! When did you get here!"
"Are you kiding me Little Marley you can see that from Hoboken. Bright as day!" the girl laughed, she had a slight southern accent.
"Right!"
"Will you help us?" Kowalski asked.
"Of course! Anything for my favorite pupil."
"Well can you stop this? Wait where are you, I don't trust people I can't see!" Skipper yelled.
Marlene looked up at him in disbelief, "Skipper, you dont' trust people you can see!"
"Um, that may be true, but I still want to see the face of the person we are trusting with dozens of lives!" Skipper yelled, slightly flustered.
"Hmmm...how interesting...but anyway your friend is right, I should introduce myself." That's when Kendra stepped out of the shadows.
The guys gasped. She wasn't what they were expecting, not by a long shot.
Kendra was a human teenage girl and she had understood everything they had told her.
Again sorry for the shortness! I'll have the next chap up as soon as I'm done with it. Read and review!
