The boys were out on the platform, doing their morning stretches. But Kowalski's mind was somewhere else. It was on Tara. It was the hari after they had kissed and his head was in the clouds.

Skipper:"Kowalski!"

The rest of the team was watching him as he stared at nothing. Kowalski shook his head as if to clear it.

Kolwalski:"Huh? What? Oh, sorry. I was just um...thinking about one of my new inventions."
Skipper:"Think about that on your own time Kowalski. We've got training to do."

They contiuned on with their exercises but Kolwalski still couldn't concentrate. Finally Skipper told him to take the morning off and get his head back together, but that he better be ready to train twice as hard in the afternoon. Kowalski went down the latter into the HQ and smiled when he saw that Tara was up and drinking coffee at the table. He tried to sneak up behind her and surprise her but he tripped on the TV remote and fell flat on his face.

Tara:giggled a little and helps him up. "Are anda ok?"
Kolwalski:rubs his beak. "I think so...it did hurt."
Tara:"Awww. Here..." moves his flippers away from his beak. "I'll Ciuman it and make it better."

Kowalski smiles and they kiss. At that moment Skipper comes down to check on Kowalski. His beak gaps open when he see them.

Skipper:"Kowalski!!" his voice is a mixture of anger and shock.
Kowalski:turns to Skipper, worried and shocked. "S-skipper. W-what are anda doing down here?"

Rico and Private jump down when they hear all of the yelling. Skipper glares at Tara and points at her.

Skipper:"You get out of here! anda are not welcome! anda never were!
Kowalski:"No don't! She has nowhere else to go!"
Skipper:he turns his glare to Kowalski. "And anda can be the one to see that she goes!"
Private:"But Skipper, Alice will just bring her back if she goes."

Skipper growls in anger and crosses is flippers over his chest.

Skipper:"Fine but anda are not allowed to speak to her. Not unless it is a command from us." contiunes to glare at Kowalski as he speaks. "Is that clear soldier?"
Kowalski:looks down at the floor and nods in disppear. "Yes Skipper."
Tara:"But Kowalski..."
Kowalski:turns to her and takes her flippers in his. "Please..." whispers so only she can hear. "I'll figure something out. There has to be a way we can be together. And I will find one." his voice goes back to noraml volume. "Goodbye."

Kowalski gives Tara one quick kiss, Rico coverings Privates eyes. Then he goes into his lab and locks the door. Tara hurries out of the HQ and walks aroung the zoo. Kowalski sinks to the floor and lays his head back against the wall, trying to think of a plan. Tara walks to Marlene's exibit, they have become close Friends over the past few days.

Marlene:"Hey Tara...Whats wrong?"

Tara had already told Marlene that she liked Kowalski, but she had not yet told her about the kiss. Marlene is the only one, other than Kowalski, that she can open up to and feel like she will not turn on her.

Tara:takes a deep breath. "Last night...Kowalski and I kissed."
Marlene:"Oh i'm so happy for you!"
Tara:shakes head. "But Skipper just found us together and told us we can't see each other. Kowalski respects him so much...so he agreed. But he told me that he will figure out a way from us to be together."

Tara's eyes fill up with tears. Marlene holds out her arms and they hug. Marlene tries to calm Tara down.

Marlene:"Kowalski is smart. He will find a way that anda can get around this. And I am here for you." pauses. "Don't worry, it will all work out."

Thats part 6. Do anda want me to go on?
