Chapter 33: The Night of War Prt 1
Charlie sat in his chair for a while, sweating with concentration, one wrong move could end him... he goes in and?!
"King me." He smiled to Dawkins who's sighs.
"It took you that long just to make a move?" He asked in dissatisfaction.
"Look Dawkins Checkers takes concentration and strategy."
"Thats Chess Charlie not checkers and beside." Dawkons pick up his piece and bounced it over the remaining pieces that Charlie has, "I win."
"You know what you cheated."
"Thats positive impossible." He scratched his ear, but Charkie laughs.
"I know I'm just messing either ya bud." Charlie smiled scratching Dawkins ear for him to which made him sigh in relief.
"Hello Dawkins, and Charlie." Da-Vinci greeted the boys.
"Hey Da-Vinci how's your painting coming along." Charlie smiled at her causing her to giggle.
"It's going swell, not only that but I overheard mum, and dad planning a family trip up to Cornwall." She said as Dolly over heard this and appeared out of no where.
"Cornwall?! When?!" She asked in desperation."
"Tomorrow." She smiled causing Dolly to freak out.
"Oh my Dog, oh my dog!! I'm not ready!!!" She ran upstairs leaving Charlie confused, while Dawkins, and Da-Vinci giggled.
"Well that was new." Charlie rasied an eye brow, "Never seen her geek out like that."
"Thats because her boyfriend is up there." Da-Vinci said putting more cutesy on the word boyfriend.
"Boyfriend?!"
"Yeah her 'boyfriends' name is Spike and they well only just met."
"Oh I see I thought she liked Hansel." Charlie said.
"W-Well she does... It's just that well Hansel seems more infuriated with Dylan then Dolly." She explains.
"Oh I see." Charlie said as Dylan popped out from the corner.
"Are we really going to Cornwall?" He asks.
"That's right Dylan, we're going to Cornwall tomorrow." Da-Vinci answered which still gave a shiver of fear.
"Oh that place really gives me the shivers."
"Why you say that?" Charlie asked.
"Oh well... there's a cow up there that I guess doesn't really like us."
"What? What you mean doesn't like you."
"It's a long story Charlie."
"Yeah she nice but underneath is an evil cow." Da-Vinci said which made Charlie laughed.
"Oh I see so this cow is an evil bag of beef huh." He joked to which the pups clearly didn't find funny, "Well you don't have to worry about this mean ol cow, cause I'll be there just in case."
"Will you really?" Da-Vinci asked.
"Of course I don't want no stinky cow making death threats with my family." He said before getting pounced on by Da-Vinci and started getting his face licked by her.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" She said making Charlie laugh.
"Alright Da-Vinci alright." He laughed to which everyone else laughed along.
The Next Day
"Well I think that's everything." Charlie said as he checked over his stuff that he's bringing on the trip.
"Got everything you need Charlie?" Delilah asked.
"I think I do actually how about you guys."
"Oh we got our essentials." She said they walked out to the double decker bus, when Charlie opened the back the 'essentials' flew out which were mostly chew toys, tarps, blankets, and loads of food.
"I see that we have our essentials in order." He looked over to which Delilah giggled and helps up Charlie, "You sure this is enough food?"
"Remember there's 101 of us, one could never be too careful." She explained.
"I guess that make sense."
"BOW WAKKA WOW, coming through!" Dolly could be heard as she skateboard down and did a kick flip, upon doing so she kicked her skateboard into the double decker bus which landed perfectly in the back before she landed on her feet, "Ta da." She said throwing up her paws.
"Bravo Dolly bravo." Charlie clapped before throwing it back to her, 'Buy we don't need this."
"Bro why not?"
"Cause didn't you say that Cornwall is mostly beaches and fields as far as the eyes can see?"
"Oh yeah I did say that did I."
"So we don't need this, besides skateboards don't really work on grassy and sandy terrains." He said before looking over his stuff, "Alright, I think we are ready to go, ready to count the pups there Deliha?" He asked her.
"I'll go get them ready." She said as she hurried back inside, leaving Charlie to lean against the bus signing.
"You know I sometimes wish I was a dog." He said as he looked up to see a drone looking down at them, "Ugh stupid neighbors again." He said before giving the drone a middle finger, I can't wait to leave for Cornwall maybe me and Da-Vinci can spend some time together up there." He said as he walked over to the main door of the bus suddenly he could hear rumbling coming from inside the house, "Oh no here it comes." He said as the tsunami of Black and white came pouring out of the front door and onto Charlie licking and barking on him making him laugh, "Alright everyone alright!" He laughed as Dylan blew a whistle to get there attention.
"Alright pups line up, sorry about that Charlie."
"Nah your fine Dylan not complaining over here."
"Alright everyone time to be counted line up and we will count you off when you get in the trolley." He said as they pups all lined up ready to be counted.
"Hey where's Dolly?"
"Oh she'll be coming in precisely... now." Dawkins pointed over to the door where Dolly came flying out all ready to go basically jumping over everyone and landing next to Dylan throwing her arms up into the air.
"Excellent timing Dolly." Dylan said as Dolly laughed.
"What can I say I'm an expert on being on time."
"That's funny."
"Pfft as if now come let's get this trolley movin!" She yelled out in excitement.
"Boy is she super excited."
"No kidding." Dylan sighed.
"Oh it's not like your super excited to see Summer." Dolly popped back up teasing Dylan.
"Dolly stop." Dylan said clearly embarrassed at her remark.
"Oh is this someone you like?" Charlie asked as he leaned against the double deck bus crossing him arms with a grin.
"W-Well I mean... I mean yeah I do like her and all but you know we, we just met." Dylan tried to cover up but clearly was too easy to figure out.
"Uh-huh I see how it is." Charlie smiled grew bigger as the last pup got into the double decker bus.
"That's all pups counted and ready for our vacation, do you have everything there Charlie?" Delilah asked.
"Got everything in my bag ready to go." Charlie held up his bag giving a thumbs up.
"So let's get going then the sooner we get there the sooner we can set up our sleeping area."
"And meet Spike and Summer." Dolly said with excitement.
"Can't forget about Chip."
"Yeah can't forget about Chip." Dizzy and DeeDee both laughed.
"Oh who's Chip."
"He's our friend."
"Yeah our friend!"
"Sounds like a good friend then again anything you two talk about is good." Charlie laughed as he sat in the back with Dylan and Da-Vinci who immediately snuggle up with him, soon the bus driver came on board and was clearly not looking forward for this drive, after sighing he sat in the driver seat and started up the bus to which the pups all cheered in excitement.
Later
The scenery changed from the bustling city scape to a wide open country side soon changing to a grassland/beaches on one of ledges was a dog, a border collie sitting as if the dog was waiting for them once the dog realized that. After a couple of minutes the the bus finally stopped in front of a lighthouse, Dylan was the first to stand up.
"Alright pups, remember we are in a new location so let's be weary of our surroundings." He said as he suddenly tripped over his one hind legs and fell down the bus stairs opening the doors and faceplanting onto the ground, after hitting the ground the tsunami of black and white fur trampled over him to explore the world.
"Well I see you made one of your usual entrances." A voice giggled to which Dylan quickly perked up to see the dog from earlier.
"S-Summer?" Dylan quickly picked himself up and patted himself down, "H-hey hey how you been?" He asked clearly embarrassed to which Summer giggled.
"I've been grand I see that you and your family has returned for another stay here in Cornwall." She said giving Dylan a boop on the nose to which he turned completely red but played it off.
"Oh looks likes someones turning red." Charlie teased.
"Yeah bro way to light up around us." Dolly laughed causing Dylan to groan in annoyance Summer looked over to see Charlie and was very confused.
"And who's that, a new friend?" She asked.
"I'm Charlie at your service, Summer correct?" Charlie asked which Summer's eyes widen.
"Wait he can understand me?"
"Shocking? I know Dylan was the same way he was worse though, he wouldn't speak for a whole whopping two days." Charlie explained to which Summer giggled, "You know Dylan talks about you alot."
"Oh he has, has he?" She smirked back to Dylan who was giving off a awkward smile.
"Oh yeah you should have heard him." He laughed as he got off the bus holding up his belongings, "You two behave yourselves." He said patting Dylan on the bed before heading over to the beach area.
"So uh... H-how have you been?" Dylan asked.
"I've been fine and how have you been?" Summer asked with a smile.
"Well you know how it is just here and there keeping the pup safe, you know fun stuff." Dylan said playing off his stressful chores.
"Well I'm glad you could make it up, I have something that I really wanna show you."
"Oh, uh what did you wanted to show me?"
"Come follow me." She said before running ahead leaving Dylan to be hypnotized by her movement, but soon shook his head and took off after her.
"Young love." Doug sighed as Delilah laughed before giving her husband a lick on the nose.
With Dolly and Charlie
"Heads up Dolly!" Charlie said throwing a frisbee to her in which she caught it while doing a front flip, "Nice catch Dolly!" He laughed as she came running over, well before being tackled by other pups.
"Alright you guys, Charlie throw it!" Dolly said as she threw the frisbee back to Charlie who smirked.
"Alright Dolly here comes a whopper." He said before launching it across the beach. The large group of pups tried to ran after it but Dolly was quicker than the rest as she went to jump for it, unfortunately she crashed into someone causing them to tumble and land on the beach.
"Well that's one way to say hi." The dog underneath Dolly said she looked down to see a doberman with a bent ear and a necklace, she gasped and quickly stood up fumbling over her own feet and fell right on her back.
"O-oh uh H-hey S-Spike." She stammered as he got up.
"Hey Dollface, I see that you and your family has returned."
"Y-yeah we have... I mean why wouldn't we you know."
"Heh yeah cool." He said as he glanced over to see Charlie and was confused, "Who's your pet?"
"Oh Charlie, yeah he's our pet we got him like months ago." Dolly explained.
"Cool hey wanna take a walk with me real quick?" He asks to which Dolly's smiles widens.
"Sure! I mean uh sure that would be h-ho... honestly nice." She stuttered, has she in spikes walked off on the beach. Charlie watches them walk off and laughs to himself.
"How adorable." He said as he headed over to his beach chair opening up a magazine to look into when suddenly he was tackled by Dizzy and DeeDee.
"Come play with us Charlie!"
"Yeah come play with us!" Dizzy and DeeDee chanted.
"All right, all right I'll play." Charlie said as the two pups cheered, "So what do you wanna play?"
"Let's play pirates!"
"Yeah pirates!" They answered.
"Pirates it is."
"Come on we know an awesome place where we can play pirates." Dizzy said as DeeDee jumped with excitement.
"Well alright then lead the way."
