Turn Blue And Sink The Iceberg

 was the first winning story from Penguin Tales Volume 3 contest in 2009 from original Club Penguin. The story could be found in Book Room. It was about a group of penguins trying to tip the Iceberg.

Story
It was a cold, but great day for adventure. I wanted to explore today, so I waddled to the Iceberg. When I got there, I saw thirty other penguins dancing on one corner of the ‘berg. They were all blue.

“What are you doing?” I asked.

“We are trying to tip the Iceberg!” one penguin responded.

“But… why are you all blue?” I asked.

“Because blue is a cool color… I guess!” a different penguin answered.

“Can I join?” I asked politely.

“Yeah, sure!” they said, “We need all the help we can get!”

So, I turned blue and started dancing. Many penguins took out jackhammers and started drilling. More and more penguins turned blue and started hopping and break-dancing.

Then I started to worry about actually tipping the Iceberg. I’ve never seen it do that before. What would happen?

As I got more and more worried about it, I stopped dancing and waddled very carefully. There were tons of blue penguins in the way, so that slowed me a lot. Before I got out of the crowd, I started to feel the ground rumbling.

I saw the tip of the Iceberg sinking and the opposite side rising. The Iceberg was tipping… and sinking!

Many penguins got away safely, but then of us couldn’t leave the ‘berg in time. We started falling off and splashing into the sea. We all could swim well, but it would be a very long way to swim back.

“Okay, guys!” I started, “if we stay on the surface, we’ll be okay!”

“What if we never get home?!” one penguin cried.

“We’re doomed!” another penguin added.

We stayed in the same place arguing for ten minutes. But then… something lucky happened. A boat came by! It was the Hydro Hopper. All of us cheered as the boat came closer.

“What are you guys doing in the deep sea?” the driver asked us.

“The Iceberg sank and we got stranded!” I explained.

“Hop on!” the driver said. “I’ll bring you back to the island!”

Everyone cheered as they got on the boat and went back to the Dock. “Thanks again!” I said as I got off.

“No problem, but be careful next time!” the driver replied as he drove away.

I waddled home to feed my puffles. I had had enough adventure for one day.
