Penelope and the Shady Penguin

PENELOPE AND THE SHADY PENGUIN

Penelope the penguin had a very lonely life, apart from the fact she had two pets, which are puffles. Every day, she would make an adequate amount of eggs for breakfast. Then she would leave with her back door slightly ajar, so her pets could go outside for some fresh air. She would get in her Bug and leave for her cupcake store, Rainbow Sprinkles. Penelope would take a lunch break at Soups ‘n’ Crackers, which was owned by her best friend, Agkitk. When her long day was over, she would come home and eat some pasta. Before she went to bed, she had a custom to sit by the hearth and read a juicy mystery.

But, today something changed. Penelope woke up as usual, and made her eggs. Before she left, she realized that she forgot to kiss her puffles goodbye. Penelope found her yellow one Olivia, but couldn’t find her pink one… Ami! Penelope looked everywhere from under tables, to the oven, but still couldn’t find her beloved Ami. Penelope decided to check the back yard. As she was walking up to the back door, she saw it WIDE OPEN! In the snow, she saw little patches of puffle feet. Why would Ami run away? She isn’t lax when it comes to caring for them.  Penelope decided to stop at the Puffle Care Centre to see if Ami was there.

When she arrived, she could smell wet puffle everywhere. In front of her was a gigantic bathtub filled with innumerable amount of puffles. Penelope walked up to the front desk and the smell of cigar kicked in. On the front desk was a wilted flower, it looked like it was using all its strength for hope. This place was infamous for mistreating puffles fur. That soap they use always mars their fur. Rumors say they use apple juice, which very odd.

“How may I help you?” said a young penguin.

“I’m looking for my pink puffle Ami” replied Penelope.

The penguin beckoned Penelope to follow her. They maneuvered through puffle food and toys until, they reached a big door. In the center was a pink dot.

“The pink dot is an emblem of pink puffles.” said the young penguin.

She pushed the door open and there was a havoc of puffles running around. Pink puffles have the love for plays, so some were practicing dialogue for The Puffle and The Polar Bear; others were writing a narrative about a dramatic scene about a penguin who was fined for committing a misdemeanor. One came up to Penelope and started imploring to pick her.

Suddenly a big man yelled from outside

“FLO, THE SPECIAL ONE IS HERE”.

Penelope guessed the young penguin was named Flo, because she turned around and ran. Penelope succumbed to her curiosity and hid behind some beds to watch what was happening.  The penguin had a box which was moving, he opened it and grabbed something pink. At first, Penelope thought it was an ordinary puffle. Then, she realized it was Ami! Penelope had a strong feeling of vindictive towards that man.

“How dare he comes and steals my puffle! He must have lured her towards him and stole Ami.” She thought to herself. At least she thought she did, because the next thing she knew Penelope was face to face with this man. They started yelling at each other until Flo spoke up.

“Listen, what about you both think of an overture to solve this disagreement” Flo suggested.

Penelope took some time to mull over this until she thought of something.

“What about we play Card-Jitsu?” she suggested out loud. (THIS IS A CARD GAME)

“Fine” mumbled the shady penguin.

So the game began. It was an intense game. Penelope began weak, but then came back, strong. Soon, they realized they were in a stalemate. Then Penelope remembered something. If she put down a certain card, then she can win. So, Penelope slammed the card on the table.

“Penelope wins!” said Flo.

Penelope scooped up her puffle and hugged her.

The shady character said “Can we have a pact, forget about this whole thing?”

Penelope hesitated but then replied with a smile and said “Sure!”

From then on Shady Penguin, Flo, Penelope, Ami, and Olivia lived happily ever after.
