I'm posting the narrative I've posted on The Showroom and Northern Skies.
Episode 1: Humble Beginnings
Ahh, so much paperwork to do.
You know what? I need a break. So I decide to take a tour around the park.
The World Zoo is located on an island off the coast of Madagascar. It has nearly every biome there, which makes it perfect for a wildlife park. Which is what I decided to do. The island was bought by me, Noah Hickman, multi-billionare and wildlife-lover. The World Zoo is home to many species of animals, including ones that were extinct, thanks to our labs. We have already gotten several different areas depending on the location and biome: Serengeti Safari, Beautiful America, Reptile World, Land of Flight, Rivers of Time, Sunny Seas, Amazon Adventure, Congo Kingdom, Realms of Asia, Frozen Poles, European Expedition, Icy Mountains, Australian Outback, and Global Deserts. Right now there's only one exhibit in each of the areas, but, once there's at least five in each, we plan to open the park to people from all over the world. It's an extremely large island, so there's a hotel being constructed, along with roads for buses between the hotel and exhibits.
The staff are busy as ever, I see. In the staff area, there are large exhibits for the animals to be held if they're either too large or too dangerous to be held in quarantine before we put them in their exhibits. Right now, we have three species in the enclosures while their exhibits are being built.
A trio of Reticulated Giraffes, to be put in Serengeti Safari.
A group of Velicoraptors, to be put inside Rivers of Time.
And an Orca, whose enclosure is being built in Sunny Seas.
I hop inside my personal jeep, which is parked in the hangar, to take a tour of the park.
I first stop at Serengeti Safari, which is on Savannah, and where we have a cafe and an exhibit for Ostriches.
I then go to Rivers of Time, which is on Grassland, and where we have a mating pair of T-rexes, which we happen to be very excited about.
Next, I head over to Sunny Seas, which is by the beach and we have a tropical fish tank there.
Then, I go to Amazon Adventure, which is located in Rainforest with a large river running through it. And we have a Jaguar exhibit there.
Next, I drive to Beautiful America, which is situated on more Grassland and where we have our Roseate Spoonbill Pond.
I then go to Reptile World, which is in a Swamp, and we have a pair of Nile Monitors situated there.
Next, I drive to Land of Flight, which is on a Savannah and is where we plan to keep most of our birds. Right now, we have a pair of Scarlet Macaws.
Then, I drive over to Congo Kingdom, where we'll be housing our animals native to the Congo Rainforest. For now, we have a troop of Chimpanzees.
Next up is Realms of Asia, where we have two Malayan Tapirs housed in the Rainforest.
Then, it's time for European Expedition, which is in a Boreal Forest. We have a pair of Wild Boars enclosed there.

Then Australian Outback is here. It's built upon a Scrubland, just like the bush of Australia. Here we have an Emu exhibit.
And next on my tour is the Global Deserts, which, hence the name, is in a Desert biome. We have Fennec Foxes here.
For the rest of the park, I have to take a Helicopter, because they're up in the mountains. First stop is the Icy Mountains, which is situated on an Alpine Biome, and we have endangered Markhors exhibited here.
And finally, at the very peak of the mountain, which is also a plateau, is a tundra area called Frozen Poles. We have Rockhopper Penguins here.
Unfortunately, I have to get back to my office and to my paperwork. The animals that will be coming in, the guest facilities need to be built, the commercials-the list goes on and on. I just hope nothing goes wrong...

Just as I was checking on the progress of the Orca Tank, I noticed sea animals stranded on the beach!
A mass stranding! But how?! Anyway, I called the staff to come and quickly pick up the stranded animals and transport them to the quarantine tanks.
As soon as they did that, I noticed two Pygmy Hippos!
They must have been chased off by whatever frightened the other animals. I noticed that they looked tired and weak, so I also told my staff to pick them up. I noticed it was nearly nighttime, and I still had tons of paperwork to do. So I headed back for the staff area and my office, but not before I saw a ship in the distance labeled 'Richmond Development'.
I knew that there were no ships like that local to here, so I wondered what it was doing in the ocean. I decided not to think about it at the moment, but I made a mental note to look up this 'Richmond Development'. Little did I realize that tomorrow, I would make a new enemy.

It had been a few days since the mass stranding. The Orca tank and the tanks for the rescued animals have been constructed. That's when I got a phone call from my office. A man on it said that he wanted to meet me at my harbor. Then he hung up. So I headed over to the Delivery Harbor.
When I got there, I saw a man I didn't recognize there.
"Mr. Hickman, I presume?" he asked me.
"Yes. And you are?" I asked him, unsettled by the air of arrogance he gave off.
"I am Gerald Richmond, and I am here to offer you a deal." he said.
"What is the deal?" I asked him.
"Why, think about this island. It has nearly every type of climate here. If you ask me, I think that you're wasting it on a simple Zoo." he said.
"What are you getting at?" I apprehensively asked him.
"Why, I think that you should change this place into a Theme Park." he said simply.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN?! WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THE ANIMALS?!" I asked him, my usually cool temper reaching past the boiling point.
"I don't care. Get rid of them somehow." he said, sneering.
"GET OFF MY ISLAND!" I demanded, pointing him back to his yacht.
"Very well, then. Just remember, I left you a way out of this." And with that, he walked off.
I angrily drove back to the staff area. The nerve of that guy! How dare he just expect me to abandon these animals just for the sake of money!
When I calmed down, I headed over to Sunny Seas to check on the rescued sea animals and the Orca.
I, personally, think it was a smart move to make an underwater tunnel for the shark tank.
The West Indian Manatees seem to be doing well.
So do the Commerson's Dolphins.
The Manta Rays as well.
The Orca seems to be good with it's new tank.
As do the Bottlenose Dolphins.
Then, I head over to the Congo Kingdom to check on the Pygmy Hippos.
I am expecting some new animals within the next few days. We already have their exhibits prepared. I just hope nothing goes wrong with the delivery.

Really liked part 1 and 2 really nice. The seperation of the biomes are nice too. Too bad the pictures of part 3 don't show. I reject reality, and substitute my own !
