Chapter 7: The Match/Save Of The Century

Its been weeks ever since Charlie moved in with the Dalmatian family, meeting most of the pups have been mostly fun, Diesel, Dizzy, DeeDee, Delgado, Dylan, Delilah, Doug, and others have been very sweet to him and have treated him like family... however one Dalmatian in particular has been hating his guts ever since he first arrived... Dolly.

Ever since the beginning she mostly kept her distance from him telling him, he doesn't belong here, which breaks Charlie heart why does she treat him like shit?  He has shown a large amount of love to them, why doesn't she see this.

Today was a very quiet day in the Dalmatian residents since all the pups went to park for a while Charlie had a chance to rearrange stuff in his room.

"Sigh perfect." He said to himself, as he dusted and place his little trinkets any place he found perfect to place, as he dusted he trinkets a large crash was heard which made him jump... causing him to hold his chest, and breathing heavily.

"Okay, okay, okay calm down..." he told himself as he started to get up from his cover to see what the noise was only to see something red and black sticking out of a fallen box.

Charlie got up and looked into the box and was completely shocked,
Its his old skateboard that he haven't seen.

"Oh shit its my skateboard." He said with excitement as he picked it up, "I haven't seen this thing in forever, guess mom packed it up for me." He inspected the skateboard to see if it still works, it was a RipStik Ripster Carving Caster Board, mostly black with Red decal, underneath was a large red skull on both ends of the board, after seeing that nothing is broken he jumped out of his bed and ran downstairs to the front door.

After stepping foot outside and breathed in the fresh London air and placed his skateboard down.

"Time to see if I still got it." He said as he hopped onto his board and kicked off heading down the sidewalk, feeling the wind in his face, "Ah its good to feel the wind on my face." He said as he kicked flipped over a mailbox and headed to the park.

At the Park Near the Skating Area

Dolly was zooming around on her skateboard showing off her style to her friends.

"Go Dolly Go!" Roxy cheered ad Snowball looked on with determination.

"Alright everyone check this out!" Dolly yelled out as she headed down with lightening speed, "Bow Waka Wow!!" She yelled her Catch phrase and hitted the other end with major air doing a back flip and landing on her feet, "Ta Da!!" She bowed as everyone cheered.

"Way to Go Dolly!" Roxy cheered as did everyone else, Dolly looked on at her audience proudly.

"Yo Dolly Heads Up!" A familiar voice was heard as Dolly spun around just in time to see Charlie jumping over her, doing a front flip right over, her expression went from a proud smile to complete shock as he landed his board into the empty pool, "Check this out." He said as he headed up the other and jump of grabbing his board doing a 360° somersault, landing on his hands, with his board still on his feet, and walking with his hands on the edge.  The crowd popped for this remarkably, much to Dollys dismay, who was fumming.  Charlie kip up (that means when your on the ground you kick back up with your feet and hands) and landed onto his board and bowed, the crowd roared for Charlie alot louder than Dolly, "What you think Dolly?" He asked her as she was at the point of exploding.

"Are you serious!  You come into my domain now and show off?  Thats a sign of war!!" She screamed as he walked over to her.

"Oh I'm sorry can't hear over the crowd now what were you saying?" He asked with a smirk.

"ARG!!!! Your gonna regret this Charlie."

"Oh yeah... how about a little wager." Charlie suggested which Dolly stopped dead in her tracks

"Whats the wager?"

"You told me ever since I've gotten here, you've told me time and time again that you don't need me, I don't belong here, and shouldn't be around here, so here's my offering... I challenge you to a competition, if you win I pack my things and leave London never to return, and you can continue living your life the way it is."

"And if you win?"

"I stay and you have to do anything I want for a whole month." Charlie put out his hands, "Deal?" He asked, but Dolly hesitates, "Hestitant are we, I could have figured that after all we know I will win." He smirked which broke the final straw as Dolly grabbed his hand and shook if firmly.

"You gonna regret throwing this challenge to me." She said throughbher teeth however Charlie just laughed.

"Lets how long you can last." He said as he skated off leaving Dolly sitting there angrily.

"Dolly you can take him easily." Roxy said as she sat down next to her best friend.

"Right you can take that beast down Snowball said as Dolly nodded her head.

"I've got this in the bag." Dolly said as she skated past a very worried Dylan.

A Little While Later

"Welcome, everyone to our big competition!" Roxy announced as dogs from over the neighborhood cheered, "tonight we have a once in a life time even, where its Man vs Beast... Human vs Animal, its the Match of The Century!" She yelled out, as the crowd roared on, "to represent Humans, he just moved into London, a guy ready for a fight heres Charlie Osborne." She announced as Charlie waved to the crowd with a slight cheer, "And resenting Animals!" She hasn't said much as the crowd erupted, "From Camden, home to her 98 siblings, heeeeeres DOLLY!!" Roxy screamed out the last and cheered for Dolly who came out and bowed to the crowd, "Here's how the competition goes, Agility, Speed, And Determination... So Whos Ready for this Event!?" She asked as the crowd erupted in response, "Then Let's Start!" Roxy lead the two to a area filled with cones, "Alright you two this first course is about Speed as you can see we have cones lined up." Roxy explains as she shown them the course, "You start here, and zigzag your way between each cone and back." She said as she held up a checkered flag.

"Well before we go, we should have a coin toss yo see who goes first." Charlie suggested which Roxy nodded her head in agreement.

"Who has a coin?"

"Well I do." Charlie reached into his pocket and pulled out a quarter, "Dylan you wanna do the honors?"

"Sure." Dylan said a he took the quarter from him and flicked it into the air, "Call it."

"Heads." Dolly yelled out as the quarter land into Dylans hand and revealed what it is.

"Its tails." He announced which Dolly cursed under her breath, Charlie stood over the edge ready to go.

"Ready? Set?" Charlie closed his eyes and started to empty his mind, all the sound around him went silent for a small second before hearing, "GO!" Roxy yelled put and off Charlie went with lightening speed, dodging and weaving in between the cones with perfect, the crowd roared with excitement as he zoomed around the halfway mark.  Dolly looked on with a very worried state as he came up without even breaking a sweat, the crowd popped for this as he did it with perfection.

"Now thats how we do it." He said as he bowed to the crowd, which made Dolly grit her teeth in frustration.

"Time Dawkin?" Dylan Asked him who checked his tablets clock.

"Precisely 3 minutes 32. 34 seconds." He answered as everyone cheered for Charlies performance.

"Next up Dolly!" Roxy yelled out as she cheered for friend, who took off down with as much speed as Charlie did, moving through the cones with precision, "Go Dolly GO!" Roxy Cheered for her friend as Dolly was getting ready to past the last cone before the turn, however she lost her balance and fell on her face, the crowd gasped as they witnessed Dollys fall, however she scrapped herself off the floor and continued not slowing down, which the crowd cheered for.

"Go Dolly Go!"
"Win, Win, Win." Dizzy and DeeDee cheered as she spun around the halfway mark and made it back to the beginning without falling over, the crowd went mental for her as she bowed her head mocking Charlie, who clapped his hands.

"That was a pretty hard fall Dolly, but at least you made it." He said trying to be Sportsmen like but Dolly shoved him to the side as she stormed off, leaving a very confused Charlie.

"Sigh she gets like this when it comes to competition." Roxy explained as she sighed.

"I hope she doesn't take this super seriously." Charlie said.

"Well you did give her a opportunity of s lifetime." She reminded him which he gulped, realizing that he really messed up.

A Little While Later

"Welcome to the second part of the challenge... High Ramp!" Roxy announced as the crowd cheered, "Heres how this work, each of you will try and get the highest jump by jumping from the edge of the pool, whoever gets the highest, gets a point." She explain as she lift Dolly ear, "You have to win this to tie." She said which Dolly nodded her head.

"I will win this." Dolly she said with determination.

"Since Charlie won last time he will go first, goodluck." Roxy said as she stepped back, as Charlie rocketed down the halfpipe his speed was perfect as he headed up the other end and was lofted into the air... though coming back down with a crash as everyone watched in shock as Charlie held his knee.

"AHH Shit... no no no I'm fine just scraped my knee." He said as he got back on his board and stated back to the top of the starting grid, as everyone cheered for his commitment.

"Whats the score Dawkins?" Roxy asked while Dawkos finished the calculation.

"Judging by my calculations... 12 feet." He answered.

"Alright you have to beat 12 feet, can you do that?" Roxy asked her friend who had lots of determination.

"Easy as a kibble cake." She said as she ollie down the ramp, "BOW WAKA WOW!" She yelled her signature catch phrase as she rocketed off the other end, reaching higher than Charlie ever did which shown him very concerned.  After landing she skidded to a halt and bowed, the crowd went wild as Dawkins ran the calculations.

"40 feet." He answered.

"The Winner is Dolly!" Roxy yelled out as Dolly jumped and started to dance.

"Uh huh, oh yeah, in your face Human, soon you will kicked and no-one here will care." She teases which actually really hurts Charlie as she danced.

"Hold on Dolly there still one more challenge that we have to do then we shall see if I'm worth staying." He said which she groaned in anger.

"We have to set the next challenge up, why don't you two relax." Roxy suggested.

"Thats good in my book after this I definitely need to have propped up." He teases to Dolly who was gritting her teeth, as he walked back to house.

Hours Later

Charlie was sitting on the couch looking at his phone when Dylan walked in.

"We really need to talk."

"Is this about Dolly?" He looked up from his phone.

"Yes...do you have any idea of how much a mistake your making, Dolly is going to attempt to take you down harder than anyone else." Dylan exclaimed.

"Yeah like that's ever gonna happen, and hello remember War Veteran?" He said which didn't help Dylans case.

"Ugh you dont get it Charlie don't you?"

"What you mean I don't get it, Dolly never wanted me to be here so I'm giving her an opportunity for her, and if she wins I'll leave."

"But that Doesn't prove anything, all it will do is drive her into her competitive mode, and it's something that not many people want to see, cause she will only care about that competition." He explains while Charlie looked on dumbfounded.

"So... your saying she will only care about the competition... and will not care about her friends and family?"

"Have I told you about when she was in a Peach Petey Pooch competition and was a completely different dog all around.

"Nnnnnnnno... and do I want to know?

"No I don't think you want to know but you have to understand she will go all the way, even to abandon her family to win." He said as he walks away.

Charlie just sat there blinking not knowing what to say, should he stopped the competition or should he continue, either way it didn't matter the competition was still going it wasn't like he needed to stop now he had to keep going even though his entire life is on the line, not literally more like figuratively. Charlie looked out into this wind out to see the moonlight shining brighter than anytime of the night, he sighed and got his board and head out the door riding his way to the next challenge.

" ladies and gentlepups, may I present the last of the challenge which the bet will be sealed will Charlie leave or will Dolly be forced to his deeds for an entire month, let' find out now in our last challenge which is... A RACE!!!" Roxy announced as the crowd got bigger and louder than ever, "the rules are simple... race around the edge of the park, the first one back wins the competition, and the bet... first you will enter the park through the main gate, passing the horse statue over a couple of ramps, out onto the main road and back here... got it?!" She asked them to which they nodded after hearing the rules.

"Hey Dolly... I just wanted to wish you goodluck, and I'm very sorry for ever being in your life." He said while Dolly ignored him completely, "It's just Dylans right... I'm so sorry for turning you into this." He said which Dolly looked at him, pure hatred was in her eye.

"I can't wait to watch you walk onto that plane." She said which shocked Charlie, Dylan was right, she don't care about anyone besides the competition.  He looks away very upset.

"On your mark... Get Set... SKATE!!" Roxy yelled out as both Dolly and Charlie zoomed past her leaving her dizzy, the crowd cheered on as Dolly has a small lead but Charlie was right behind her.  As they make around the first corner, Charlie had swooped under Dolly gaining the lead.  Charlie looked back to see Dolly trying to keep up and evidently does make a pass heading into the park and around the horse statue,  Dolly stuck her tounge out as they headed out of the park and onto the main road.

As they raced they spotted a couple of ramps that were placed, Dolly was the first to jump over and landed perfectly, however Charlie wasn't far behind as he too jumped the ramp, but in the process, he manage to do a frontflip and landed ahead of Dolly who was shocked as Charlie started gain some distance in between them.  They were in the final stretch one more turn and straight away could change the entire house forever... Charlie looked back as Dolly tried her best to catch up, but can't making him laugh.

*Charlie's thoughts*
'This is it I'm gonna win this and staying...'

However his thoughts were interrupted when flashes of lights started to appear, the noise around him suddenly went numb as all he could was the sounds of ringing in his ear...  The sounds of bullets could be heard, the sounds of voices, until a loud voice kicked into his head.

"OSBORN!" The voice called out as Charlie tried to focus but can't, "GET UP SOILDER!" The flashes kicked in as many images are him being dragged by someone through a war torn area.  But then he passed a figure, this figured looked at him but he was burnt his face had a large freakish smile.

"you... did...this."  The burnt man said as Charlie freaked out causing him to wobble and fall of his board, skidding his knee pretty badly.

Dolly sees this and doesn't take a second to jump over him, she look back and started laugh.

"See ya later lose..." she didn't get to finish as she was ran into something and fell flat on the sidewalk, she groaned as she looked up to see a grown man, a large belly, and goatee, messy hair, he was wearing a white dirty tank top, with gray sweatpants. (like your typical standards of a drunk man.) He looked down to see Dolly smile sheeply as the expression changed from a drunken, confused, sad, depressed man, to a blood red, anger inducing, rage. He see hers skateboard and stomps on it breaking it into pieces.

*Animal is Being Harmed by a human, if you find this offensive, please do not read, let's be very clear no Animal in the real world was hurt when making this chapter, anyway on with the story*

"First my girlfriend left me...Then they kicked me out of the bar, I've lost my Job, I've Lost My Car, I'VE LOST EVERYTHING!!! AND YOU THINK YOU CAN COME AROUND WOTH YOUR STUPID FUCKING BOARD YOU STUPID BITCH!!! The man screamed as he grabbed Dolly by her throat and thrown her to a brickwall which she landed on her leg completely badly.

"Your Fucking Dead you Stupid Flea Bag..." he stopped dead and looked at Dolly and followed her body until he saw something that made him started to drool, her vaginal reason started to make him crave, as grabbed her by the throat and turned her over to get a better view of down below, "Now that looks Delicious!" He said psychoticly as he pulled out a knife and held it up to Dolly throat, "I'm need pussy, AND YOUR GOING TO GIVE ME YOURS!"

"NO NO NO YOU CAN'T... SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!" Dolly screamed and begged but no one can hear her.

"SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU LITTLE WHORE AND HELP DADDY FEEL BETTER!" The drunken bastard said as he ripped off his lower clothes to reveal his erection, Dolly sees it with horror, "I bet your very tight." He grinned as he slid his hand to her vagina and stretched it out getting ready, "I hope you love this CAUSE HERE I COME!!!" He yelled and started to ram his cock into her...

But... nothing happed, Dolly opened her eyes to see Charlie there, standing over her with blood red eyes.

"YOU MOTHERFUCKER... DON'T YOU FUCKING TOUCH MY DOG!!!" He yelled as the drunken man stood back on his feet.

"T...thhha fuck you gonna doooo mate?!" He tried to say by the punch that Charlie gave really knocked him into a drunken state.

"YOU ARE GONNA WUSH YOU HAVE NEVER MET ME!" He yelled as he grabbed the man by throat and smashed his face into the wall, Dolly looked on in horror as Charlie beaten this man to bloody pulp.

"NO ONE HURTS, OR FUCKING RAPES MY FAMILY!!" He screams as he grabs the man entire arm and breaks causing him to scream.  The man started to run off before he grabbed by his broken gand and thrown back into the alley, "let this be a fucking warning... if I ever see you again... you better wish that could've killed you earlier because what I did now will be NOTHING to what I'm going to do later." He threw the scared man back onto the street and watched as he took off running screaming for his momma.

Charlie turned around to see Dolly laying there in complete shock.

"Dolly..? Dolly are you there... please speak to me..." he said as he got down to her level however she didn't even blink, "Dolly come on please speak to me." He cried out tears in his as Dolly continued to stare off into the distance, but started to blink and look at Charlie who had tears in his eyes.

"Y-you... y-you s-s-saved me." She said as she started to tear up, "W-why?"

"Because your family, and that means no one gets left behind." He explains as Dolly tries to get up but can't, here let me carry you." He said which she nodded slightly as he picked her up.

"You... you aren't here... to hurt us." She said as Charlie picked up her broken skateboard.

"No Dolly I never was trying to hurt you."

"I-I'm sorry." She sadly said as she started to cry but Charlie held her close.

"It wasn't your fault, you just didn't know and I understand that completely... but first we gotta hurry and get this race what you say?" He said which she nodded her head.

At the Start Finish Line

"Hey I see someone."
"I see two people." Dizzy and DeeDee both jumped up in excitement, as everyone cheered but went silent to see Charlie caring Dolly.

"Oh man what happened?!" Dylan asked himself as he ran to see his sister, "Dolly What Happened?!"

"It's a long story Dylan but get your mom and dad they need to know."

"Why is Dolly hurt?"

"Worse." Charlie answered to which Dylan sprinted ahead in fear as he jumped on a trash can.

"Mom... Dad... Come Quick Dollys Hurt, Please Come!" He yelled out which Charlie looked confused, Dolly noticed this and smiled.

"It's called the world wide woof." She said.

"So how does it work?" He asked.

"Basically if we need to get information across we yell or for what the humans can hear 'bark' as loud as we can that information will travel to different dogs all over the city until it reaches the one that's receiving the message." Dylan explains which Charlie eyes lit up.

"Kinda like a large game of telephone."

"Exactly."

"Dylan we're here!!" Delilah yelled as her and Doug were there, "Wheres..." it didn't take long for her to see Dolly who Charlie put down on the ground as they hugged, "Oh Dolly what happened?"

"I don't think she wants to talk about." Charlie chimed in.

"What happened Charlie." Doug worriedly asked, as Charlie sighed and told them what, as he explained, fear was in Dylans face, Doug was getting very angry that someone tried to rape his daughter and Delilah held Dolly close.

"Oh my poor baby." Delilah cried as Dolly and her hugged.

"If it wasn't for Charlie I wouldn't be here."

"Thats true guess you can say my love for you guys is strong." He said as the crowd looked on in anticipation, Charlie looked over and picked up Dolly and placed her over the finish line, but no one cheered as they sat there completely silent, "You won Dolly." He said which she looked at him with sadness, "I'll go and pack my stuff." He said as he walked away from her but she grabbed his hand.

"No."

"What you mean no, I list I have to leave like we beted on."

"I... I don't want you to leave, I need you more than ever... you've shown me how much you care about us, and how much this family needs you... and I need you, I'm calling off the bet." She said as Charlie smiled and hugged her.

"I never thought you would say that." He looked over to the crowd, "You hear that?! I'm staying!!!" He yelled out as everyone cheered for him and Dolly as they hugged each other not letting either or go...

Hey there sorry for having this huge time, I'm very sorry Its tough with all that's going on at work, and home I know it was a huge jump from one to the other, but hey I hope you enjoyed I will be making more I promise so I hope enjoy this and please let me know what you want next.
