07 Guard the Ship

CHAPTER SEVEN CUARD THE SHIP President Penguin led his captain and first mate downstairs to the cargo bay. Then they each climbed aboard a giant, armored Penguin-Mobile. "Listen up!" cried President Penguin. "Today, we fight for HONOR! We fight for RESPECT! We fight for—"

"Can we help?" Nigel interrupted. "Yeah!" said Clancy. "We could pass out refreshments to the Earthlings!" "You don't pass out refreshments at a battle," yelled President Penguin. "Just stay here and guard the ship!" "OK," said Nigel. "You can count on us!"

The cargo-bay door opened, and the three Penguin-Mobiles rolled out to begin their savage and ruthless attack. "Hey, look," said Lucy. "Some penguin robots are coming out of our castle! Awww, how cute!"

Soon Lucy and Waffles reached the cargo-bay door. Fudgie and Cupcake ran up behind them, huffing and puffing. "Halt!" cried Clancy and Nigel. "Who goes there?"

"Step aside, dudes," said Lucy. "We're here to check out my new castle!" "Oh, this isn't a castle," said Nigel proudly. "It's a spaceship." "It is too a castle," said Lucy. "My cousin, Ricky, built it for me! Don't you guys know anything?"

The two guards were very confused. "Ummm..." said Clancy. "We're not supposed to—" "Listen," Lucy interrupted. "I'M the princess! This is MY castle! And you guys have to do what I say! Any questions?" "Are you really a princess?" asked Nigel.
