The park a luscious location where all humans, dogs, or anything can roam free, and have fun... well until right about...

CRASH

"Park."
"Park."
"PARK!"
"PARK!!!!"

Now...

The pups fly right into the park, like a jets taking off, there was no sign of slowing any of them down. 

"So is this a common thing that happens?" Charlie asked Dylan.

"Every time we come here." Dylan said trying not to smile.

"Well dame sucks for whoever has to clean up the place." Charlie joked which made Dylan laugh.

"Yeah these pups do get wild." He explained while Dolly came by on her skateboard not even acknowledging that Charlie was there. 

"Is she like this all the time?"

"No in fact she's actually the first one here."

"But now that I'm here..."

"Hey don't blame yourself Charlie." Dylan reassured, "she come around eventually, just she gotta get used to you thats all."

"I guess." Charlie said with sadness.

"Hey cheer up... hey I know what can cheer you up." Dylan said as Charlie looked at him, "music." Charlie smiled at the idea.

"Hey not a bad idea I do like music and maybe listening to some will help me."

"Theres a music shop just right down the road, not that far." Dylan pointed behind Charlie.

"You gonna be okay taken care of everyone?"

"Will be fine, its not we're gonna be dognapped." Dylan joked which Charlie didn't seemed amused, but sighed and nodded his head.

As Charlie head out of the park, Dolly watched.

"Ugh Finally he's gone." She said with disgust.

"Oh come on Dolly, having a human is fun." A Rottweiler said to her, the Rottweilers name is Roxy.

"Yes Dolly they take care of themselves, food, walks, going to bathroom." A white puff ball of a dog said to her, her name is ironically Snowball, since her fur is so puffed out

"Thats not the problem." Dolly detested, "the problem is... well..." Dolly said.

"Your worried that he might be the same as whats her name?"

"What... No, no, no." Dolly shook her head, "that is the least of our worries."

"Then what is it?"

"It's that... we've lived our whole lives without, we definitely don't need one, and we never do." She finally said which the other two looked at each other.

"Dolly have you ever put some thought into having a human?"

"That last human was from Dizzy and DeeDee, they brung a human over for Dylan... and look what happened... Like I said we don't need a human, and never do." Dolly said with a firm tone as she kicked off down the halfpipe while Roxy and Snowball sighed, Dolly is never going to understand. 

Back With Charlie

As Charlie saw the music shop, he noticed a Dalmatian looking into the the store, he had on a pair of Red Beats headphones and had an interesting pattern on his ears, they had a single white spot in the middle.

"Man they are some nice gigs." The Dalmatian said as he looked into the window.

"Aren't they?" Charlie asked the Dalmatian.

"Oh yeah you better believe it... oh hey your our human, Charlie was it?" The Dalmatian asked.

"Yep thats me, and I never got your name."

"I'm DJ please to meet you dude." DJ introduce himself to Charlie.

"Nice to meet you too DJ... let me guess your a music player?" Charlie asked him, which DJ nodded his head.

"Uh huh, I'm the one most animals come to... if they have the price." DJ grinned.

"Cute... so you wanna go inside?" 

"Yeah sure why not."

As Charlie and DJ head inside DJ gasped as he looked at all of the instruments.

"First time being in here?" Charlie asked.

"Well I never get the chance to come in here, since Dylan will get worried."

"Like a good brother." Charlie added which DJ giggled.

"Yeah I guess your right..." DJ stopped as he saw something, "Woah..." Charlie turn his attention to a Studiologic Sledge 2.0 Polyphonic Virtual Analog Synthesizer, "oh man what a beautiful looking keyboard, it makes my old one look like garbage." DJ said as he inspected the instrument.

"Your a keyboard player?"

"Oh heck yeah, I'm the party dog (thats what most people call me." DJ explained to him, "oh Shit." DJ said as he looked at the price.

"Geez Language D... oh Shit." Charlie looked at the price tag, £777 ($1000 I looked it up.) DJ sighed.

"Dame even that is too much for me." DJ said sadly, which Charlie looked on with sadness, "well I better get out before I get into trouble see ya Charlie." And like that DJ headed out the door with disappointment, Charlie on the other hand was feeling very very generous, grabbing the keyboard and bringing it to the resistor, which the cashier was turning up a guitar.

"Woah hey there little dude, I see you got your hands on some nice keys." He said in his surfer like accent.

"Hell yeah dude, its for a friend of mine."

"Must be a awsome player he's getting a great deal." The Cashier said as he pushed buttons on his cash register.

A Couple Minutes Later

Charlie walked out of the music store with a large bag but noticed no one was around.

"Huh... guess everyone went home." Charlie said as he noticed a fox digging in a trash.

"Hey." Charlie said to the fox who jumped from the noise.

"Wha...who's there?" He asked in a scared tone.

"Yooohooo." Charlie waved to him which the fox tilted his head slightly.

"You... you talking to me?"

"I mean there's no one else I'm talking to... so it must be you who I'm talking to." Charlie said with a stern voice which the fox's eyes widen.

"You... you understand me?"

"Well duh." Charlie answered.

"I don't know weather to be thrilled or scared."

"Why, you afraid I might hunt you down like its fox season?" Charlie sarcastically said to the poor fox which didn't seem please with what the human had said, but kept a cool head

"Though I don't think any one would catch me to begin, cause I know this city like the back of my paw." He smirked.

"I'm Charlie." Charlie held out a hand.

"Fergus, pleasure to make your acquaintance." Fergus shook Charlie hand with his paw.

"Well it was nice meeting you Fergus but I have a pup to surprise." Charlie said.

"Alright Charlie goodluck." Fergus waved as he continued to dig through the trash can.

As Charlie enter through the door he was greeted by Dylan who was counting the pups.

"Hey Dyl..." before Charlie could get a word out, he slipped on some balls and fell flat on his back with a large thud, "I'm okay." Charlie said as the pups all laughed and jumped on top of him tickling him in the process.

"Oh Charlie now I have to recount them." Dylan said with defeat in his breath.

"Sorry Dylan." Charlie said as he tried to get up much to the pups dismay, "can you..."

"Sure I'll help." Dylan said as he started to pick up some of the pups.

"Is this how it is everyday?" Charlie asked Dylan who nodded his head and sighed.

"Whenever mom and dad leave for work its always like this." Dylan explained.

"Ohhh... hey where's DJ."

"DJ in his music rooms." Dolly answered from upstairs, with a bit so pleased look on her face, "why do you need him?" She asked with a disgusted tone.

"Well for your information Dolly, I bought something for DJ... now if you don't mind i would like to see him."

"Did someone mention me?" DJ poped his head out from behind Dolly who Charlie waved to."

"Yo DJ I got something for ya." Charlie said which DJ jumped with excitement.

"Really Sweet!" He said with excitement as he jumoed on the railing and slid down like Dolly does most of the time landing at Charlie's feet, "what you got..." before he could finish a beeping sounds was heard and DJ looked at his wrist, "oh shoot I'm Gonna Be Late!" He panicked.

"Whats the matter DJ?"

"I'm supposed to head to a party right now." DJ was about to head out the door, "Dolly throw me my board!" He said which Dolly nodded grabbing his key board and tossing it down to him which he caught with his mouth, "thanks I'll be home after beginner Dylan see ya." He yelled and headed out the door sprinting to the party location.

"Does he always run off to parties?" Charlie asked Dylan who nodded his head.

"Yeah he always wants to get there before the party even before it begins."

"I hope he will be okay."

"Pffff he will be fine, its not like he will come back in here crying, he'll be fine." Dolly said from upstairs with a displeased look on her face, Charlie huffed at Dolly who rolled her eyes at him.

With DJ

DJ was sprinting down to where the party was located.

"YES with an hour left to..." he didn't get to finish his sentence, for he tired on his own feet and skidded across the sidewalk, with his keyboard flying off his back, "NOOOO!!!" he screamed as the keyboard landed softly in the middle of the road, "whew." DJ wiped the sweat off his head in relief... only to watch his favorite keyboard get run over by two cars and a truck, and immediately gets sweeped up by a street cleaner.  DJ froze up... his favorite board completely destroyed, right in front of his eyes. Tears started to form into his eyes as he sprinted back home.

Back At The House

"Man I really hope DJ okay." Charlie said as he sat on the couch.

"Believe me Charlie DJ is going to be..." Dylan was saying before the door bursted open with a crying DJ, Dylan saw and ran to DJ, "DJ what happened."

"M-my... my b-board..." DJ sniffed.

"What about your board... wait where is it?" Dylan asked but didn't get an answer has DJ ran passed him and up the stairs balling his eyes out.

"Uhhhhh what happened to DJ?" Dolly asked everyone downstairs to which everyone shrugged.

"He said something about his board." Dylan said.

"I'll talk to him." Charlie said as he headed up the stairs.

"You sure?" Asked Dylan who was concerned about his little brother.

"Absolutely Dylan, besides I have something that might cheer him up." He smiled as he headed up the stairs to see Dolly watching him go by with curiosity.  It didn't take Charlie long to find DJ crying, covering his face under his pillow/bed.

"Hey DJ." Charlie said in a very calm and gentle voice which DJ looked up to see him, "what happened?"

"M-my board... I... I was walking t-to the party and... and." DJ tried to answer through his sniffing.

"Hey hey hey I'm here I'm here." Charlie softly said as he hugged DJ, who hugged back.

"I... I dropped it and it got completely smashed... that was my entire life in the Keyboard." DJ sadly said.

"Well your kinda in luck..." Charlie optimized which DJ looked up woth curiosity, as Charlie pulled up a large bag, "Remember that other Keyboard that you've wanted to get but you couldn't afford?" He asked which DJ tail started to wag with excitement.

"You didn't."

"Ta Da!" Charlie pulled out the Keyboard and laid it front of DJ who at first was hesitant on grabbing but grabbed it and hugged it, then hugged Charlie who immediately hugged back.

"Thank you." DJ cried with joy into Charlie's arms.

"Your welcome." Charlie said to him as other pups watch in awe as DJ was back to his old musical self, "now I think you better head off to the party you were going to." Charlie reminded him which his eyes bugged out.

"SHIT!!!" he yelled out as he grabbed the new board and ran to the front door.

"I'll come with you DJ will make it faster if I carried you." Charlie said which DJ nodded his head in agreement, Charlie kneeled down for DJ to jumped into his arms along with the keyboard tightly hold by him, "we'll be back." Charlie yelled out as he and DJ headed out the door to the party.

At The Party

A weiner dog was waiting impatiently by a large gate as Charlie and DJ skidded to a halt infront of him.

"Well you finally made it." The snotty weiner dog remarked which DJ pouted.

"Yeah had some trouble... but I brought a friend." DJ introduce Charlie to the weiner dog who wasn't please to meeting a human.

"Charmed." He said as he walked away.

"Thats Spencer he's "friends" with Portia who is hosting the party." DJ explained with air quotes.

"Ahhhh I see well what we waiting for DJ let's get this party moving." Charlie said with excitement.

"Heck yeah bro!" DJ pumped his fist up and sprinted to the stand he would preform.  Charlie looked around and noticed alot of... goth like dogs, and classic around.

"Man looks like a tough crowd." Charlie stated as he helped DJ setting up.

"Yeah but once they hear music they must just bob there head to the beat." DJ explained as he started to press the keys down to see if the sound would be right.

"Well I wish you goodluck DJ, I'll just head back." Charlie said as he turned to walk out but was grabbed by his leg.

"Wait." DJ said with a nervous tone, his paws were shaking alot, "I-I'm kinda scared."

"Wait what you mean DJ?"

"My whole has been in my other Keyboard... I...I don't know if I can play." DJ confessed which Charlie smile.

"I'll help you."

"Really..? After all this your still willing to help?"

"Absolutely your family, and family will do everything to over come challenges." DJ hugged Charlie who hugged back, "besides I know a song that will definitely drive everyone crazy." He said with a smirk, finding a read leather jacket from a nearby trashcan (how convenient).

Meanwhile down below the party dogs and cats were waiting impatiently for the music to kick off, instead the curtain open with Charlie snapping his finger for a light to shine on him and the music kicked up.

Beat It (Michael Jackson)

They told him don't you ever come around here
Don't want to see your face, you better disappear
The fire's in their eyes and their words are really clear
So beat it, just beat it

You better run, you better do what you can
Don't want to see no blood, don't be a macho man
You want to be tough, better do what you can
So beat it, but you want to be bad

The Gotham dogs, and Cats at first were shocked to see a human seeing but it didn't take them long for them to get into the song, along with other dogs, and cats overhearing the party and joing in.

Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated
Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
Just beat it, beat it
Just beat it, beat it
Just beat it, beat it
Just beat it, beat it

They're out to get you, better leave while you can
Don't want to be a boy, you want to be a man
You want to stay alive, better do what you can
So beat it, just beat it

DJ and Charlie were rocking the entire  party, in fact DJ got into the singing as well.

(DJ)
You have to show them that you're really not scared
You're playin' with your life, this ain't no truth or dare
They'll kick you, then they beat you,
Then they'll tell you it's fair
So beat it, but you want to be bad

(C)
Just beat it, (beat it)

The party was at full swing even when the sun went down and the moonlight shine bright with the statge lights.

The crowd (now going from a party to an actual concert style) roared for DJ and Charlie who looked at each other with excitement as they got the dogs and cats wild up and wanting more.

"You want more?" Charlie asked them which they roared, "I can't hear you, I said Do You Want More?!!" Charlie asked them a lot more louder and the crowd just completely roared, "Alright DJ let's give them more." Charlie daid to his singing partner and all through the evening they party for the crowd.

Hours Later

Finally returning home they entered the house with smiles on there talking about what just happened.

"Oh man that was the greatest party I've ever had the privilege to be DJ for, Charlie you were like... like an animal up there." DJ said with excitement.

"Hell yeah dude it was so fun."

"Well it seems like you to had fun." Delilah appeared saying.

"Yep we had an awsome party and completely rock the house." Charlie explained to Delilah who giggled at there excitement.

"I have to say any longer out there and the whole family would've been searching for you two." Charlie looked at his watch and realized it almost midnight.

"I'm very sorry Delilah, I lost track of time and..."

"No need to be sorry it sounded like you two had a great time." Delilah said in her calm attitude which completely shocked DJ.

"R-really?" He asked.

"Of course I trust Charlie took care of you and he did, but now its time for bed DJ." Delilah said as DJ and Charlie both yawned.

"Alright mom goodnight Charlie." He said as he happily walked away.

"Goodnight DJ." He said to the sleepy DJ, now its only Delilah and Charlie, "your okay woth me keeping an eye on DJ?"

"Well at first I really wasn't, having a human take off with one of my babies... this family has veen through enough dognappings." She explains, "But I know your not here to harm us you did the right thing... now if you excuse me I must head to bed myself, goodnight Charlie." She said as she headed upstairs.

"Night Delilah." Charlie daid as he headed up to his room where it was kept clean thanks to Dylan, he walked over to a desk that had a lamp on it, and pulled a drawer inside the drawer was a notebook, he took out a pen and started to write in the Notebook of what happened today, as the moon beams over the house signaling bed time for all those who work through the day.

Hey Everyone Thanks for being so patience, I'm sorry that it took me so long to write this, but I was able to finish this chapter thanks to all my friends and fans for reading my book, and thanks for supporting me. See you all next time.
