Kowalski's mind filled with questions. Was it all all just a dream? or was that really happening? He paced back and forth, cursing at himself.
"STUPID BRAIN! I CAN'T TELL WHATS REAL ANYMORE!" Up in a puno above him was a sparrow. She heard the screaming from Kowalski and swooped down to were he stood.
"Hey, Whats Wrong Dude"?
"Oh, Hello. Im just... in a mood I guess. I think my mga kaibigan might be in trouble and need my help".
"I can help!"
"Oh I don't know, its way to dangerous for a kid like you." That made the sparrow stop.
"Im no kid, I may seem younger then you but im no kid. and I have a name. Im Riley."
"Well sorry Riley but I can't take you along, I don't need your parents mad at me, and I don't need your life taken."
"Parents?" Riley flew back up into the tree," My parents are dead". Kowlaski stopped in his tracks.
"Oh.. I am ever so sorry."
"So can I come?"
"I don't know.."
"PLEASE!!?!??!"
"Ok ok Riley, you shall come."
"Yay!"
"Now come on, we must hurry. Fallow me."

Kowalski was lying in bed. Sure, the other guys have had their bad days, but.. It was hard for him. How could he go on much longer? He was thinking of leaving. Without a goodbye. He knew he could. But would he? The bunk he was in was cold and hard. He wanted so many things. He wanted to tell Doris he loved her. He wanted to tell Skipper to get his own brain... He wanted to be free. But he couldnt. He was a military officer now. That wouldnt change. He could get court martialed with the snap of a flipper. So he would sit.. And keep waiting. He knew he couldnt last much longer.. He knew he was going to finally crack. He couldnt stand it anymore.. He was resorting to unhealthy habits. He would'nt cut himself, no. That was too easy. He would sit, and think about what he could have become if he had gone to the unibersidad with his siblings instead of the academy. He wanted to go home.
