Their First Christmas

The penguins ran after Marcus. He was really good at digging. He literally tore through the dirt with his flippers at breakneck speed, leaving the others behind in the dust. The others were running just to keep up with him. Marlene and Brook stayed in the very back, doing their best not to get dirt on their coats.

“Can’t we just go home?” Marlene whined

“Negative, Marlene. Without putting an end to Smith’s tyrannical reign, we will be forced on the lam from our own people.” Skipper replied to her, smiling to himself

“Yeah,” agreed Marlene.

We slid/ran toward the noise. I flipped on the wall while Marlene jumped up beside me. “What is it?” she panted.

I looked through the binoculars. “Not sure yet- Oh!”

“What is it?”

“Just some guy in a tree animal napping a squirrel.”...
