Scarlette rubbed her eyes and opened them slowly, meeting a strange blur of colour as she did. As he vision returned, her eyes nearly popped out of her head and she gasped in surprise.

"G.. guys, you're all colourful.." She managed, glancing down at herself, and screaming in shock. Her once black and white feathers were now dark and light red. She stared at her reflection in the pool, and saw her hair was now a reddish orange, and her eyes were bright red. Her right eye had a nasty mark all around it and looked swollen.

"How did this happen?" Erin asked, peering at her reflection and barely recognising herself. She was now completely orange, though in different tones and shades.

"I'm guessing that weird oil like thing changed the colour of our feathers, hair eyes, etc." Becky guessed. She didn't look much different, all that had changed were her body feathers, which were now dark, and light yellow, and her hair was a little darker. Lily stared at her reflection in wonderment. She was the only one who's beak had changed colour, as it was now a deep blue, along with her feet. Her eyes matched, though her body feathers were green and a lighter green.

"I hope I haven't changed too much." Cassie hoped wistfully, walking over to the lake. Her sisters exchanged worried glances, knowing what her reaction would be. Cassie shrieked so loud that a light went on in the hospital. Her blonde, wavy hair was now replaced with a light blue, flecked with green, and her feathers were a dark, and light blue. Heather looked into the water and nodded in approval. Her black hair was now a purplish pink, like her eyes, and her feathers were a dark and light purple.

Looks pretty good actually. She thought, smiling a little. Lexi seemed to agree, as a little grin was tugging at her face. Her eyes were still light green, but her hair was now a reddish pink, and her feathers, a light and dark pink.

"I like it!" She exclaimed smiling wider.

"Me too actually." Erin agreed. Becky and Lily nodded their heads in agreement. Cassie raised her eyebrows at them.

"You've got to be kidding, it looks like we fell in a big bucket of paint!" She pointed out angrily. "And my hairs a stupid colour!" She added, crossing her flippers.

"Hey but at least we're different to all the kids at school." Becky replied, calmly.

"It's quite fascinating really, I'd like to see how this substance did it." Erin thought aloud. "And I'd 사랑 to know why it had a different effect on all of us."

"Why does that matter? What matters is that people at school are gonna laugh at us, and bully us!" Cassie protested.

"Well if they do, then we ignore them, this isn't our fault, so we don't have to listen to them." Lily pointed out. Cassie sighed and rolled her eyes.

"I'm still not looking 앞으로 to school." She muttered. Scarlette quickly re-did her hair so that it covered her right eye and the penguins set off cautiously.

"I know 당신 guys seem fine with this, but I'll point out that this will make us an easier spot for predators." She pointed out. Silence fell upon the group, as they approached the school door and opened it nervously. As they walked inside, the kids dotted around the hall stopped and stared in shock. They continued on bravely, only to be stopped 의해 a teacher.

"What on earth happened to you?" The teacher asked, barely able to contain her disbelief.

"Urm..." Cassie began.

"A Orca was chasing us, and we hid in an underwater ship, and this oily stuff stuck to us, we got out of the water, and we were like this." Scarlette blurted out, fiddling with her hair. She wasn't used to having it in her eyes. The teachers eyebrows had disappeared into her fringe, and she looked at loss for words.

"Urm, ok, I better tell the village mayor about this, and make sure it doesn't happen to anyone else." She decided, rushing off. The other kids were still staring blankly at them.

"What are all 당신 lot staring at?" Scarlette snapped, growling and walking on. The kids averted their eyes and tried to keep their minds off the unusual coloured penguins. They spilt up to find their 프렌즈 and Scarlette and Erin strolled over to Kai, who's head was so deep in his locker, he didn't even seem to notice their presence.

"Urm, 저기요 Kai." Erin greeted.

"Oh 저기요 Erin, I- WOAH!" He exclaimed as he popped his head out of the locker. The two sister's smiled awkwardly, and looked towards the floor. "What happened?" He asked, after calming down a bit. They explained quickly, and Kai nodded in understanding. "You guys look pretty cool actually." He admitted, smiling at them. They smiled back and before they got to say anything else, the 벨 for first lesson went and they rushed to their class.
