Lexii slowly opened her eyes. She stretched and looked around. Marlene was watering the plants and the sunlight was lightly coming in through the door. Marlene turned around and smiled at Lexii. "Happy birthday!" she said excitedly. "Thanks!" replied Lexii. She hadnt told anyone else but Marlene that it was her birthday. She didnt want a party or for anyone to make a big deal of it.
She stood up and put her flower back in her bangs making sure the camera was on. " I'm going to go for a walk before the zoo opens, kay?" Lexii said softly "Okay" said Marlene who was still watering the plants.
Lexii walked out the door then sprinted into the bushes. She got out her walkie talkie and called Dr Blowhole. He had told her to call him on her birthday. About 5 of the lobsters apeared on the screen and sang her "happy birthday." Lexii laughed. Blowhole came into veiw and smiled. " You didnt have to do that." Lexii said with a smile.
"Oh we didnt mind! Happy birthday Lexii." Blowhole said half with a smile and half with something else that Lexii couldnt quite figure out. She smiled. " Thanks." she replied sweetly.
Just then the zoo opened with the morning bell."Hey i gotta go!" she said quickly. "Wait! Lexii, I -" began Blowhole.
"We will talk more tonight if I can. Bye. See you soon!" she smiled and hung up. She raced to the lemur habitat as fast as she could.
She reached the lemur habitat breathig hard. " Hi Julien! Hi Maurice! Hi Mort!" she said with a smile. "Happy Birthday Lexii!" Mort said happily. Lexii picked Mort up and hugged him. Julien shot him an angry look. "How did you guys know? Did Marlene tell you?" said Lexii. They all nodded.
Just then a little girl leaned over the railing. "Look at that lemur Mommy!!" she yelled and pointed to Lexii. "She is so pretty!!" Lexii blushed. She waved at the little girl and smiled. That went on untill the zoo closed at six. She was so happy to quit waving at everyone. Her arm was hurting. She sat down on the grass next to Julien and smiled. All of a sudden the penguins flew over the fence. Skipper and Kowalski took her hands and pulled her toward the penguins habitat. Thay said that they planned a surprise for her. Lexii smiled and rolled her eyes. Who else had Marlene told?
Kowalski covered Lexii's eyes with his flippers. Kowalski guided her down the steps into the penguin's HQ. Kowalski lifted his flippers from Lexii's eyes. The penguins, the lemurs and Marlene all yelled, "SURPRISE!!" Lexii giggled. "You really didnt-" she began. "But we wanted to!" said Skipper with a smile. Rico came out holding a tray."CAAAAAKE!! " he yelled. Everyone laughed.
After the cake was all gone everyone sat around the TV and watched comedy movies untill 3 in the morning. Lexii decided that she loved comedy movies. They made her laugh untill her sides hurt.
One by one the animals would get tired and go to bed. By 3:30 all that were left were Lexii and the penguins. Lexii finally couldnt keep her eyes open any longer. She drifted off to sleep on the floor.
About an hour later Lexii felt a blanket wrap around her shoulders. She hadnt relized she had been cold but now she was glad for its warmth. She sat up and looked behind her. "Kowalski?" she mumbled sleepily
"Sorry. You looked cold. Everythings ok, go back to sleep." replied Kowalski. "Thanks." Lexii mummbled.
She frowned. They were being so nice to her and all she was is a spy, helping Blowhole plan an attack. She felt confused. Did she want to be evil any more? She couldnt decide. She would miss Blowhole if she decided to turn nice. She remembered the times they used to stay up till 3 or 4 in the morning planing evil scheems that would most likely never happen. When they were younger they used to go swimming all the time. They would sing and dance and she missed those times. Now it was all about the penguins. She wouldnt think about it right now. She needed sleep.
Blowhole was laying in bed staring at the ceiling. He missed Lexii already. Thier phone call had been the highlight of his day. He had just gotten the courage to tell her how he realy felt and the zoo opened and she had to go. She hadnt called him that night and he was worried. Was she hurt? Was she mad at him? Did she not want to be on his side any more? Uggghhh... Why did this have to be so complicated?!?!
