RATED T! Will be some violence and cautionary moments of drama. I own nothing.

Private lay in his bunk. He had run from these memories for the longest time now. The zoo’s baru-baru ini encounter with near-ruin brought back all those painful years of fighting. He was a killer, through and through. He tried to escape it, but no one can escape how they were raised.

Lay beside me
Tell me what they've done

Skipper sat in silence, watching the young penguin toss in his sleep. What sad troubles were going through his mind? Skipper knew about his past. But it was something Private had to tell the others. It was up to him, not Skipper.

Speak the words I wanna hear
To make my demons run
The door is locked now
But it's open if you're true

Private was emotionally conflicted. What would his Friends think if he told them everything? Everything ever told… it was impossible to believe. The strange girl penguin who had shown up out of nowhere had told him impossible things. Things not even Skipper knew.

If anda can understand the me
Then I can understand the you

Lay beside me under wicked sky
Through black of day, dark of night
We share this pair of lives
The door cracks open
But there's no sun shining through

It was hard to believe her at first, but then after a while he noticed – changes in Skipper. He thought it was just him being Christian, but then he noticed his mannerisms had changed as well. He was usually left – flippered.

This Skipper was right-flippered.

Usually he had ikan coffee before he went to bed. Now he only drank it when he woke up.

And numerous other things.

Black hati, tengah-tengah scarring darker still
But there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining

He and Skipper were intertwined. Their past lives, everything.

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door
Should I open it for you?

Should he tell them? He sighed, knocking his head against the board. Skipper was in katil already.
He had to tell them. But first, he’d tell them of his own past. Start off slow, and then get into Skipper’s complications.

Yeah, what I've felt
What I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could anda be there

THE seterusnya MORNING
“Guys, I’m sorry I had so much trouble last night. I promise to do better.” he berkata to the animals.

“Private, its fine. It’s perfectly alright.” Skipper reassured. Private started up again.

Cause I'm the one who waits for you
atau are anda unforgiven too?

The hari came when Elijah was taken on a special ops mission. He was undercover with another – an opossum. Her name was Barbara. She was kind of cute, and they got along really nice. In another life, Private would have enjoyed staying with her. But it wasn’t to be.

The last mission was to find a swindler. He sold advanced technology in the form of mini golf equipment. And he called himself. ‘The tenggiling, armadillo Kid’. In a battle of golf, Private had to hit a ball off of Barbara’s ice cream cone. She wasn’t mad; she knew it had to be done. But Private never forgave himself.

Come lay beside me
this won't hurt, I swear
She loves me not
She loves me still
But she'll never Cinta again
She lay beside me
But she'll be there when I'm gone

Then the unthinkable happened. In a return vengeance, The tenggiling, armadillo Kid broke into Barb’s base. They found her under the covers. Private never looked under the covers.

Black hati, tengah-tengah scarring darker still
Yeah, she'll be there when I'm gone
Yeah, she'll be there when I'm gone
Dead sure she'll be there

Private could feel the tears welling up again. The black blanket, hand reaching out underneath. Chest unmoving.

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door
Should I open it for you?

Yeah, what I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could anda be there
'Cause I'm the one who waits for you
atau are anda unforgiven too?

He faked his way out of war. He was telah diberi incentive to go back to home. Back to Antarctica. But first, he had to do one last mission. A mission back home. Unfortunately, he never completed the mission. atau maybe fortunately. Fate is strange that way. He returned to Antarctica, only to find it a desolate wasteland. The humans had taken over.

Lay beside me, tell me what I've done
The door is closed, so are your eyes
But now I see the sun, now I see the sun
Yes, now I see it

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door
Should I open it for you?

Yeah, what I've felt, what I've known
So sick and tired, I stand alone
Could anda be there
'Cause I'm the one who waits
The one who waits for you

He was picked up sejak another human. He was put in a cage, and put on their ship, moving on towards worlds unknown.

Oh, what I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door
Should I open it for you?

Oh, what I've felt
Oh, what I've known
I take this key and I bury it in you
Because you're unforgiven too

Never free, never me
'Cause you're unforgiven too, oh

He paused in his story. This was how he got to the Zoo in the first place, and how he became the cute and cuddly Private he is today.
