ImAnEasel Wow... Either you're SUPER knowledgeable, or you put a lot of effort into researching this. Well done, either way.

Zelda4Efas Ummm I thought Mort came from the Latin word Mortuus, as in ... *sob* Dead. or something similar. Something off Wiktionary English Etymology 1 Possibly [i]French mort (“death”)[/i] Noun mort (plural morts) A note sounded on a horn at the [i]death[/i] of a deer. Etymology 2 Unknown Noun mort A great quantity or number. Noun [i]mort f (oblique plural morz, nominative singular mort, nominative plural morz) death[/i] Catalan Etymology 1 [i]From Latin mors, mortis. Noun mort f (uncountable) death mort m (plural morts) dead person[/i] (colloquial) a difficult problem one must face Etymology 2 [b]From Latin mortuus. Adjective mort m (feminine morta, masculine plural morts, feminine plural mortes) dead[/b] Verb mort Past participle of morir. 45.000 persones han mort 45000 people have died Sooo I was right. Mort really DOES mean dead. Thanks Kowalski quote! I am smart! I have good memory! I only looked it up to double check! I am happy!

SaturdaySurpris First, my resource is probably wrong. Thx, I´ll edit that. And no, I´m not that smart, I looked it up since I was bored.

“Nothing to be Afraid of”
November 1, 2014

“Come on, Skipper!” Marlene urged, pulling him toward the Halloween Haunted House in Central Park. “It’ll be awesome!”

“It’ll be pointless! Haunted Houses are so overrated!” Skipper said as he tried to resist Marlene pulling on his flipper.

Marlene stopped and turned toward him. “What, are you afraid?” she challenged.

“No, I just don’t want to waste my time wandering through a supposedly ‘scary’ house,” Skipper answered.

“Come on, I’ve been anticipating this ever since they started advertising it. I’ve never been in...

“Good Game”

    “I believe that’s checkmate, Marlene,” Skipper announced, moving his piece to trap her king.

    Marlene pursed her lips and threw a bishop at him. “Come on, that was the third time in a row,” she protested.

    Skipper laughed. “Hey, don’t hate the player, here!”

    Marlene laughed and threw a knight at him. “I don’t hate you, it just makes me feel better,” she corrected.

    “Well,” Skipper replied with a smile, “two can play at that...

“I Remember”
January 3, 2014

Note: I’ve typically been writing notes at the end, but for this case, I must make an exception as to be clear to you, or at least the ones who haven’t read my previous works. I have been thinking about doing a sequel to one of my stories, but never did because I didn’t think I could make anything long and commendable out of it. But with this project, I received some inspiration and motivation to do so in a short story. So, this short is a little sequel to “Skipper’s Curse.” If you haven’t read it before and plan to, be aware that this will contain...

Tense.

That was the only way to describe the atmosphere in the HQ. They’d recently returned from a mission to thwart Hans’ latest scheme, which hadn’t gone as planned.

“Skipper,” Kowalski called as Skipper violently prepared his bed for the night. Kowalski rolled his eyes. “You’re being ridiculous.”

“Ridiculous?” Skipper snapped, turning to face him. “I’m not the one being ridiculous. I had...

Okay, here come the antagonists! Please review! :)

That very same day, at that very same time, there where four penguins and a dolphin who had just swum away from the explosion.

The location. The location was hard to name. It was a top secret loading dock, and from what I can tell you, it's in New Jersey. As you, the reader, is familiar with it, it is that place in 'The Penguin Who Loved Me'. And, it was also a few second before it had ended.

"Skipper, do you suppose we've finally seen the last of Doctor Blowhole?" Private asked, as the penguins slowly waddled away from the dock.

"What a delightfully...

June 9th, 2014
Location: Classif-....oh, for Pete's sake, why am i even bothering to keep my location hidden anymore? I'm in the Central park zoo. Penguin habitat. My panic room. Happy now?

Anywho, i needed to make an update to my biography. What with the craziness that happened a little while ago, and all, i feel it's important to record this.

Our files are still a bit messed up, so I'll need to update again later. Besides, it'll give you all something to look forward to!

A few months ago, we dealt with a secret agent force of animals called the North Wind (Their motto...
