Ponyo Penguin and the Power of Power4U

This is a true story about Ponyo Penguin joining the site Www.power4u.com, causing massive destruction in Snowzerland. Luckily, everything was fixed almost immediately, and Ponyo was detained temporarily by the SSS.

Chapter One: One Dangerous Night
Ponyo Penguin was anxiously waiting for her video on WaddleTube to finish uploading. What was it, you ask? Just another scam about Ponyo Penguin's Christmas Special.

"Come on, come on!" Ponyo Penguin said. "Is the bar even moving? Well, there's only one way to find out..."

Ponyo Penguin moved her mouse over to the bar. It moved!

"YES!" Ponyo Penguin said. It didn't move again. "Forget this, I'm opening a new tab to check my email."

Ponyo Penguin opened up a new tab and logged onto her email. Inside was typical junk mail...but there was one message that stood out...

"Check this out, girl!"

Ponyo Penguin clicked the email.

''I joined this awesome site called www.power4u.com. It's amazing what it can do, and it's all totally free!''

She looked at the name of the site. It looked familiar. She thought she had heard it before.

Ponyo Penguin clicked on the link.

Www.power4u.com: superpowers for free!

EPIC!, Ponyo Penguin thought. Wait a second, this really isn't a scam?

All of a sudden, big black bold words appeared on her screen: THIS IS NOT A SCAM.

"Well, alrighty then." Ponyo Penguin said. She clicked on a "Browse" screen of superpowers.

Hypnosis

Ability to Fly

Cloning

Morphing

Ponyo Penguin looked amazed at the list. Was this legal? It had to be legal, Director Benny was pretty quick to take down illegal things. What Ponyo Penguin didn't know is that this site was too powerful for even Director Benny.

She clicked on Morphing.

A download popped up. ''Warning: this file has not been scanned for viruses. Are you sure you want to-''

"YES!" Ponyo Penguin yelled. The download went at amazing speed. A file appeared on her screen; power.exe.

She clicked on the file, and was given the message: Please burn this file to a disc. So Ponyo Penguin got a spare disc of hers (the one she labeled "Ponyo Penguin's Christmas Special" to fool people on WaddleTube) and burnt power.exe to it.

Ponyo then took the disc out.

"Okay." She said, looking at it weirdly. "What am I supposed to---ouch!"

Ponyo Penguin was shocked by the disc.

"Why'd it sting me?" Ponyo Penguin asked. "Man, that hurt."

Ponyo Penguin noticed a new file on her computer: instruction.txt. She clicked it.

''Hello there, Ponyo. We've been expecting you. You're probably wondering how to use your marvelous new superpower. Well, um, this one's pretty easy. All you have to do is think of something! Have fun!

Please do not copy-paste this anywhere; we respect our privacy!

Power4U.com''

"Wow, that's easy." Ponyo Penguin said. She began to think of being a pony with her eyes closed. She opened them and looked down. She had hooves.

"Flippin' awesome!" Ponyo Penguin said. She thought of her normal self again, and when she opened her eyes, she was back to normal. "Man, is this gonna be fun! I gotta go show everyone..."

Chapter 2: She Didn't Know
So Ponyo Penguin walked around Snowzerland, shapeshifting into many different things, making many people shiver with fear for reasons she didn't understand.

"Eh, probably just jealousy." Ponyo Penguin said, and brushed off all of their reactions. She went into a dark alley --- smart idea --- and began looking around. "HELLO?! DOES ANYONE WANNA SEE MY FLIPPIN' AWESOME POWER?"

"Power, eh?" Said an old-sounding voice, and out came a penguin with a beard. "Now just where did you get that power? I had a power once, from a website called www.---well, I don't really remember the domain, but I'd know if someone said it---and it ruined my life forever."

"Power4u.com."

The old penguin began screaming like a little girl. "AHHH! AHHH! AHHH! AHHH! AHHH! AHHH! AHHH! AHHH! AHHH! AHHH!"

It was obvious he was not going to stop soon, and Ponyo Penguin tried to plug her ears, but she STILL heard him.

"AHHH! AHHH! AHHH! AHHH! AHHH! AHHH! AHHH! AHHH! AHHH!"

Ponyo Penguin couldn't take it any longer. How long had it been again? Oh yeah, 1 HOUR, 32 MINUTES, 45 SECONDS, AND 19 MILLISECONDS. YES, SHE COUNTED. She turned herself into a hammer, and without looking both ways, bashed the penguin on the head. He fell to the ground, cold.

"Oh, man!" Ponyo Penguin shouted. "Did I kill him?"

She tried to check his heart to see if it was still beating, but that was pointless, considering how she had already checked all of his other internal organs for life. She screamed quietly and immediately put up a sign saying "THE AMAZING SLEEPING-TOTALLY-NOT-DEAD PENGUIN. WHO ISN'T DEAD, OKAY?".

"That oughta do it." Ponyo Penguin said, walking off. "Man, I hope there's no law over killing someone with your powers...I didn't really read the Terms and Conditions...then again, who really does?"

At least she didn't sign a magical girl contract; she had seen enough anime to see how that would've gone down.

Oh, yeah, now is the time where you think the people of Power4U are going to kick her rear end for killing someone; as you'd suspect. But my foreshadowing isn't that obvious.

Is there a law against it? Maybe, but it won't become a sub-plot in this story, sorry to tell you.

Chapter 3: A Mysterious Visitor
Ponyo Penguin was tired at the end of a long day. She had killed a man, for Pete's sake. She was definitely getting into some dangerous territory. Maybe she could reverse this? She rolled over and turned on her laptop and typed in the power4u.com URL, but instead of the typical listing of superpowers, one big message appeared in bold:

IT'S TOO LATE.

Just then, she heard knocking at her window. When she went towards it, there was nobody there. Then there was some more walking. Again, when she looked over, there was nobody there. Then suddenly, the window had been smashed in half with a hammer, and an angry purple female penguin with a loaded brain blaster came changing towards her.

"Alright, Power4U executive!" The angry purple female penguin yelled, aiming her brain blaster towards Ponyo's head. "What did you do to my brother?"

"I don't work for Power4U!"

"Yeah, right! Do you wanna do this the easy way or the hard way? Why don't I do you a favor and show you what color your brain is?"

"But I don't!"

"Oh, yeah? Then explain the recent traffic to Power4U from your IP address?"

"I got superpowers from them!"

The purple penguin stopped, her facial expression dropping with Ponyo's revelation. She dropped her brain blaster, with her mouth gaping wide open. She then began to weep into a pillow.

"I'm sorry...so, so, sorry..."

"Hey, it's alright." Ponyo said, patting the former tough girl's back.

"No, you don't understand why I did what I did. Power4U is an evil organization, they're responsible for the deaths of many penguins, and I have a feeling you're the next target. Let me tell you the story of my brother."
