Author's Note: Here's the next chapter. I decided to post both of them because
(1) I had them already typed out on my computer
(2) I didn't update the story for a while
(3) I wanted to celebrate 2014!
Also, this chapter is in nobody's PoV. The other chapters (except otherwise noted) will be in Nathan's PoV. Enjoy!
“Nathan didn’t always work alone,” explained Leo. “He had a partner –Billy.”
“What happened?” asked Private.
“I’ll get to that part soon,” said Leo. “Together, Billy and he were one of the best.”
He glanced at Skipper. “Perhaps you know them, Skipper.”
Skipper shook his head. “Negative, sir.”
“They were called the ‘Twins.’”
Skipper’s, Kowalski’s, and Rico’s eyes widened in understanding. “You mean the Snow Twins?” clarified Kowalski.
Leo nodded. “That’s the one.”
“The Snow Twins?” Private snickered. “Why were they called that?”
“Because they were the cutest penguins on earth –too adorable to kill, but ruthless killers inside. Snow described them perfectly –fun to play, but able to kill,” said Leo. “So, I suggest you don’t make fun of them.”
Private nodded silently. “Weren’t they gone years before?” questioned Skipper. “On that one mission where everything went wrong?”
“Yes, the mission involving Blowhole. Many things went wrong that day, and Nathan lost his brother.”
“Wait a minute,” stopped Skipper. “They were actual brothers?”
“Yes, twins too, in fact. Nathan felt like he lost a part of him that day. He was never the same afterwards –also insisted that everyone called him Nathan instead of Nat to cancel all rumors associating with him and the ‘Twins.’ Since that day, he always worked alone.”
“Poor Nathan,” said Private. “It must be as if I lost Skipper, Kowalski, or Rico.”
“No, Private.” Leo shook his head. “It was as if you lost everybody you knew.”
“That poor kid,” sympathized Skipper. “He was just a rookie when I met Rico.”
“A very intelligent and hardworking penguin,” agreed Leo. “They were the best we had.”
“Why torture the kid?” asked Skipper. “If he doesn’t want to work in a team, why make him?”
“Because, Skipper, an enemy of ours is targeting solos. We’re losing more agents than we ever had! You think I don’t care about my men?”
Silence filled the room as everyone thought about Nathan. “How did he get that sarcastic humor of his?” mumbled Skipper to himself. “I suppose it masks the pain he is feeling.”
“It’s time for me to go,” announced Leo. “Oh, and I suggest you don’t mention everything that I told you to Nathan or the fact that I even told you in the first place.”
After the penguins saluted each other, Leo nodded once more; and the screen went black.

one night as a storm hit marlene was asleep but mort came in and he could not sleep. marlene remembered a song her mom used to sing to her when she could't sleep so as she put mort on an spare bed she sang:
go to sleep
rest opon your bed
may this night bring dreams to your head
hear my voice
never let it die
keep this lullaby
soon the sun shall sat on
long it will be till dawn
never from you will I be gone
carry on
with this world of fear
now the time is near
peace will soon rain here
as marlene completed the song mort was fast asleep.as she was walking outside she saw skipper
marlene:hey skipper so hows the team?
skipper:marlene theres no time to talk my team said that they heard a girl singing.
marlene:skipper that was me.

Everyone was gone except for two of the penguins.
the others where on a vacation with Kaitlyn's sister Leah which she was very annoying.
So I didn't go but my cell phone ranged a penguin said "Do you know I'm a dimwit?"
"I'm a dimwit?"i said and the penguin said "You're sure are!" I hanged up angrily and said "it could be Skipper,Lily,or Rico."
Private's phone ranged next a the penguin said "Is you're refrigerator running?" "I don't know," said private. "If it is you'd better catch it!" The voice said.
Private said angrily "It could be Kowalski,Rico,or Lily" he complained. But as soon as he said it Skipper ran in. me and Private gasped like if the winkies were going out of business.
"Don't be alarmed I was here the whole entire time,and sorry if I didn't let one of you go instead," He said."But Private all the penguins you said were wrong,"
WHO WAS THE PRANK CALLER?
