"You need to talk to him, it's all you can do Skippah, how would you feel if someone were to be that rude to your ethnic background?" asked Private.
"I won't talk to him. Period. He's done more harm than good these past 2 days and I felt that he needed to be put in his place," Skipper crossed his flippers disapprovingly.
"Talk to him!!" Private frowned.
"NO!!! I REFUSE!!!"
"Skipper, I advise that you should talk to him, immediately, otherwise he'll be trapped in his thoughts, and hate you, then consequently hate the zoo, can you imagine him joining the other villains on our list?" asked Kowalski.
"Fine, just so that he doesn't become another Blowhole minion...." Skipper sighed in defeat.
He then walked to the HQ slowly, left to his own devices, once he arrived at the fishbowl entrance, he kicked it to confirm it was still bolted down, then knocked on it.
"Who's there...?"
"Uhmm... Listen Richard... I really want to talk, about my attitude..."
I recognized his voice immediately.
"GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!!!"
"Look, I have my regrets, besides, I was, wrong, to call you the words that I called you the past 2 hours ago... Please let me in,"
Reluctantly, I unbolted the fishbowl entrance, then opened it up for him.
"Tell me inside then..." I frowned.
"That's fine too, just let me talk to you- Wait, what happened to your Imperial uniform?"
He noticed that I had none of my clothes on whatsoever.
"I chunked it in the trash, I felt that it looked too "Imperialistic Nazi" to me...." I frowned.
"Oh, heh, look, I'm really sorry about that Rich, I just let my temper get over my reason... That, and the fact that you were of Germanic heritage, well... That left me with the words I called you,"
"I hope you realize that I'm still not forgiving you for that..." I tapped my foot.
"What would make you forgive?"
I then grew very impatient.
"FIND OUT YOURSELF!!!"
I roughly grabbed him, lifting him 3 inches off the ground, then held him over an area of broken glass, courtesy of my anger.
"YOU GIVE ME AN HONEST APOLOGY THAT WAS NOT SCRIPTED OR I'LL CUT SPLINTERS OF GLASS IN YOUR ASS!!!"
Skipper looked shocked: One, that I was was strong enough to actually lift him, and Two, that I was going to drop him over broken glass.
I was soon loosening my grip on my right flipper.
"SAY IT!!"
I soon heard him whimper slightly, then I smiled, then set him down away from the glass.
"Oh- Heh, so are we, forgiven?" he asked nervously.
"Don't think you are completely forgiven Skipper, I leave you that simple warning, I will make sure you are sorry for what you've said..."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Let's just say, from here on out, it'll be like a game between us," I smiled knowing my plan well.
"That didn't help explain,"
I then ran up to the fishbowl entrance, then closed it, leaving Skipper. Then I thought an idea.
"My my, Skipper, why did you destroy my clothes? And break that mirror?" I smiled and headed to his group.
"Wait, what?!" he then followed me, but then he hit the entrance: I had bolted the fishbowl shut in my escape.
By the time Skipper had given up, he saw the fishbowl entrance getting unbolted, and once the last bolt was removed, Skipper got out, but his team was already waiting for him, all looking at him disapprovingly.
"Alright men, I can explai-"
"No, you don't, we've already had it with your temper, I had told you that we should just try to keep peace with him, but you just let your ego get to your head, and just go ahead with acting this way, Skipper, I know you're better than this," said Kowalski.
"Look, I didn't mean to, I tried to apologize to Richa-"
"Then you got frustrated when he didn't forgive you!!" yelled Private.
"Hey!! That didn't happen at a-"
"You didn't need to be so harsh about it!!" yelled Kowalski.
"Fine!! I did whatever happened, I'll admit to that, alright?"
I knew that the sheer disapproval would eventually shut him up about the lie.
"I don't see why you needed to be so harsh, look, I might've forgiven you, but if you could be patient, then I would!!" I yelled.
"Fine, but I'm onto you Richard," said Skipper.
And I'm onto you, soon this whole zoo will think you're the bad guy in all of this, even the zookeepers. That'll be the day when they stick you with the needles I know you're afraid of.
"Skippah, what do you suggest we do now?"
"Let's just head to the bunks, just let this pass through sleep, we've all had a rough day, and it's only fair to end it, night boys,"
"Fine night to you too, Skipper," I said, heading to the HQ with his team.
"I won't talk to him. Period. He's done more harm than good these past 2 days and I felt that he needed to be put in his place," Skipper crossed his flippers disapprovingly.
