2 days had passed as the zoo was none the wiser about the plot between Julien and his mother. In fact very few had been interested in meeting the new lemur, even when someone had overheard someone say that she was leaving in a couple of days. Marie had actually gone around and asked a few questions to many zoo residents. She mainly asked about shipping information and something about a crate to use. Many assumed this was transfer related. However she did hear from Maurice that he knew someone that would be happy to help.

In the meantime, Skipper and the other penguins didn't take any notice....

(Lemur habitat)

Julien was sitting perched on his throne as he looked out over the zoo. He had a very good view of the zoo seeing as his throne was tall enough. But the thing he looked at the most was the otter habitat. Most especially when Marlene was out swimming in her pond. He loved looking at Marlene when her fur was wet. Oh how he wanted her.
Something small and furry jumped and grabbed onto Julien's feet and Julien then let out a grunt. He looked down and his feet and saw that Mort was hugging them again.

Julien growled and yelled, "MORT! HOW MANY TIMES MUST I BE TELLING YOU?! NO GRABBING...

Marlene looked from Marie to Zera and then back to Marie.

"Uh Marie? Who is that woman?" Marlene asked.

Marie sighed and said, "She was a servant girl in my palace sometime ago. She always had a thing for my son. And she was always very obsessive."

Zera chuckled and said, "Sweet talk won't save either one of you."

Marlene gulped as Savio began to squeeze her tighter.

"So what happened?" Marlene managed to say as Savio loosened his hold on her a little bit.

Marie sighed and said, "One day Julien announced that he was seeking a bride and Marie tried to eliminate the competition. Literally, she tried...

(Baboon habitat)

Darla and her girls were back at their habitat and dancing to their rockabilly music. The norm for them. What they didn't notice was that they were being watched by some ticked off penguins and otter.

Skipper watched Darla and said, "Okay everyone, the prime thing we do is restrain Darla and her goons. She can't use that freaky backwoods magic if she's restrained."

"So how do you suggest we do that?" Dave asked.

Skipper shrugged Dave's words off and said, "Okay Kowalski when we get in there I need you, Private, and Rico to take down and restrain Darla's girls. You have that red...

Everyone was gathered together in the main clearing outside of the palaces. Julien and Marlene were huddled together, with their paws grasping each others, waiting for Kowalski and Private to arrive with the rocket. Marie had momentarily gone back to her palace to gather some subjects. Savio was there in the clearing as well and he had been tied into a large knot that he couldn't get out of by himself. Some subjects had come and taken Zera away and torn her dress to shreds. Marlene herself was no longer wearing her gown. Dave, Rico, and Skipper were approaching the two.

"I just got word from...

(Julien)

Maurice walked into Julien's room and aprroached his king. Julien himself was not so well. All he did was lie back on his bed and stare up at the ceiling. His mood certainly wasn't a happy one. In fact it was the exact opposite of happy. He was down right depressed.

"Um King Julien sir, the wedding is about to start. You don't want to be late to your own wedding do you?" Maurice asked Julien.

Julien slowly sat up and looked at Maurice. Julien wore a brand new and bigger crown atop his head for this formal event.

"Very well Maurice. I've just been thinking about all of this," Julien stated...

(Penguin HQ)

"So guys, how are we going to get to Madagascar and in a short enough time too? Chances are, they may be there by now," Dave said as the penguins gathered supplies.

"Don't worry about that Dave. We have something that should do the trick. We should be there in just a few hours," Skipper said.

Dave picked up some cans of sardines with Private and he and the other penguins left the HQ and moved towards where the penguins kept their car.

"What? You don't expect us to drive there do ya?" Dave asked in confusion.

Skipper shook his head and said, "Now how can we drive there?"

The opened the...

Both Marlene and Marie were carried off into an area seperate from Julien and the rest of the lemurs apart from the ones carrying them. Marlene wondered how long they were going to carry her, mainly because her stomach was starting to feel a little sour from the ride. Before too long however they could see a large structure made from vines and using the natural terrain of the trees and flora. It looked a bit like a palace.

"So is that yours?" Marlene asked Marie.

Marie nodded and said, "This is where you'll be staying until after the wedding. My son has one too and that's where you'll go after...

Marlene still struggled in Savio's mighty grip. She had been at it for so long that she was now growing fatigued. Savio didn't mind it, he loved it when his prey struggled. It reminded him of that he the one was in control of the situation. His stomach growled loudly and he began to grow a little antsy.

"Zera can we hurry this up? I'm starving," Savio complained.

Zera ignored him and pressed Marie on once more. Marie herself was feeling a bit antsy as well. She was being forced to wed her son to this lemur she hated and the end would be the same no matter what she did. If she agreed to wed, both...

"Are we there yet?" Private asked while he and the other penguins sat in the rocket.

Skipper groaned loudly and said, "For the hundreth time Private, NO!"

Dave snickered and said, "Are we there yet?"

Skipper growled and said, "Rico, would you please shut them up?"

Rico nodded and upchucked a lit stick of dynamite.

Skipper went wide eyed and said, "NO RICO! I meant use duct tape. Don't blow us up."

Rico groaned and extinguished the stick of dynamite. He reswallowed the dynamite and brought back up the duct tape.

Dave chuckled and said, "Okay guys we'll stop. We're just trying to pass the time is all."...

Marlene was carried along for the dozenth time of the day. At leaset she was in a chair carried by two lemurs instead of over a dozen with their hands, so the trip was a little smoother this time. Nearby she could see Maire being carried along as well. They were just leaving the palace when they were stopped all of a sudden.

"Hey, why did we stop?" Marlene asked.

Just as she said that, something was draped down over her head and down her body. She was in darkness momentarily, but as her vision came back she could see the same thing going with Marie. Some paws were on Marlene's arms and were pulled...

The guys were busy trudging through the jungle again. This time they were traveling in the opposite direction and away from the lemur kingdom. They were also very quiet now, because they had now lost their friend. All this way they had come, only to have to go home without her. It was a lot for all of them to bear.

"Skippa? Are you going to be alright?" Private asked their leader, breaking the silence.

Skipper didn't answer, but instead he kept marching through the jungle. Private turned to Dave with worry clear on his face.

"Dave, I'm worried about Skippa. He hasn't said a thing since we left...

Skipper sat panting in the middle of the aisle as Marlene, Julien, and many of the lemurs that were gathered there turned to look at him. Skipper could feel the many eyes staring at him as he tried to catch his breath. He stood up and got into his defensive stance. He glared around and looked back up to the alter. Both Marlene and and Julien stared with their mouthes wide open.

"S-skipper? What are you doing here?" Marlene said as she walked down towards him.

Skipper was starting to feel less pressure on his chest now as he looked back at Marlene. She looked even more beautiful up close, but...

Dave sat in a tree and scanned the area around him using some binoculars that Rico had given him. He currently sat high up in a tree and looked towards the lemur kingdom and could see some activity going on. Lemurs were running about everywhere, settting up some kind of decorations, but at their distance Dave couldn't see what was going on. The biggest thing he noticed was a large building high up in the trees and he could see into the building through the windows.

"So Dave, what's going on up there?" Skipper called from down below.

Dave lowered his binoculars and began climbing down to the penguins....

Sunlight glistened in Dave's eyes as he opened them. It was morning and the rain had stopped. Dave yawned and stretched. He looked to his left and saw all the penguins all huddled up together, which made Dave laugh lightly.

"I wish I had a camera right now. This is perfect blackmail material," Dave said to himself and laughed at the same time.

All of a sudden, Skipper yawned and stretched. He opened his eyes to see Kowalski lying on top of him and screamed.

"AHHH! Kowalski get off of me," Skipper yelled and pushed his lieutenant off of him.

This made Rico and Private wake up and they too screamed...

"How far do we have to go?" Marlene asked as she, Marie, and a few of Marie's subjects moved through the jungle.

Marie shook her head and said, "It shouldn't be too far. They prefer to stay close to the kingdoms. That way, it's better to keep in contact."

Marlene groaned as they continued along. Before too long they came across the remains of an old shack that humans must have used years earlier. They walked closer and Marlene could hear a shuffling sound inside. The sound of someone moving around.

"Hello. I've come back and I've brought my son's bride," Marie called out.

The shuffling stopped...

Marlene was lying in her hamock trying to sleep. She knew the sun was up, but she was so tired that she didn't want to move at all. She just lied her head on her pillow and continued to snooze. It wasn't until the door to her room flew open that she woke up and fell out of the hammock.

"Ahh! What was that?" Marlene called out as she raised her head off the ground.

Marie stepped in accompanyed by a couple of her lemur servants. They saw Marlene picking herself up off the ground and brushing herself off.

"Are you alright dear? We didn't startle you did we?" Marie asked and walked over to Marlene....

Marie carefully walked into the room that Marlene was staying in. She and Julien had decided to walk around the clearing for a bit which gave Marie plenty of time to return to the palace before Marlene did. She was still dressed in her purple gown and walked carefully. She carried with her a plate of assorted fruits. She figured Marlene was probably hungry seeing as she had hardly eaten anything since her arrival hours earlier. Julien had told her what food otters eat, but there was no fish laying around anywhere. So Marie was hoping that fruit was good enough.

Since they had been gone, a table...

It didn't take too long for the truck to reach the airport and it didn't take much longer to get the crate on a plane bound for Madagascar. About on hour after that, the plane was finally cleared for take off and it was off. A few more hours into the flight, the male lemurs all fell asleep while Marlene couldn't. She just sat in the crate, stared at Julien, and let out another sigh. Marie patted Marlene's head and tried to comfort her.

"There there dear. Everthing will be okay. You just let me and my subjects take care of everything," Marie said soothingly to Marlene.

Marlene wiped a tear from...
