Chapter 11: The Adventures of Mike the Dog

I woke up to my master calling me.

"Hey buddy, good morning! How did you sleep?" My master said something, but that's irrelevant. I give his hand a few licks and show my belly.

"Come on, come on, I want some affection," I think, looking at my master.

"I need you to do me a favor, buddy," he says something and picks me up, I'm confused, my master isn't one to pick me up?

But soon I understand what he wants; he wants me to pet the human puppy. Since the master said so, I do it with pleasure, maybe I'll even get a treat. Just thinking about treats gets me excited.

So I start petting the human puppy (licking). Hmm, this part tastes salty. This other part tastes like booger. Hmm, this one tastes like STRAWBERRY!!! Soon I start petting with more intensity.

"What is this? Gross!" the little human says something and pushes my face away. No, I won't let that happen, for the STRAWBERRIES!!, for the TREATS!! So I start petting with even more determination. I am a Mike-hero, my battle to get the treats will be more than legendary.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Mary says something and acts strange. What does she have? Did the master take her treats? If so, it's lamentable, but don't worry, I, THE GREAT MIKE, will share half of mine with you. I raise my paw and put it on Mary's shoulder.

"Eww, gross! What are you doing, Connor?" Missy says, "You're disgusting!"

After saying a few words, the little human runs away from my territory.

I look at that scene in confusion. Why are you running? I said I'd share my treats with you. It must be because she wants more treats. Well, I worked hard for them. It's not my fault you misbehaved and the master took yours. Humph.

"Good job, buddy," my master looks at me and says something. It must be my reward. Where is it, where is it, where is it? And then he pets me, BUT I DON'T WANT AFFECTION, I WANT TREATS!! He looks at me and laughs, then rummages in his clothes and takes out meat. THAT'S RIGHT, TREATS!!!

Yummy, yummy, yummy. While I was savoring my last piece of treats, I see that my master has left.

So I'll do what I always do. I'll relieve myself on the tree in the yard... Ah, that's the life. Treats, tree, sun, and freedom to do whatever I want.

Then I lie down in the shade of another tree and take a nap.

While I was sleeping, I hear a noise. I quickly raise my head to see if I find a squirrel to make friends with, but I find nothing, nothing except the human sitting on a stool exhaling smoke from her mouth. I get up and approach the human.

As Mike approaches Mary, Mary becomes alert, looking around for the source of the sound. She soon finds a white dog with a strange nose and a strange head looking intently at her.

"What's wrong? Are you going to judge me too, just like everyone else in this house?" Mary asks the dog, who was looking intensely at her face.

'-' (´･ω･`)? "Okay, okay, I'll stop," Mary exclaims, putting out her cigarette. "Maybe it's you judging me," Mary says as she gets up and goes inside the house.

What a weird human, Mike thinks, and then trots off to the street to take a walk and see if he finds a squirrel to be friends with.

"Joseph, how about that one?" Hmm, "Too chubby, didn't like it," Joseph says to the guy sitting in the passenger seat with binoculars. "And that one?" Wallington asks impatiently. "No, she's already a teenager, we need one between 4 to 9 years old," Joseph says, carefully scanning the street in search of a target.

"I found one!" Joseph exclaims to his partner, throwing the binoculars back onto the back seat of the car.

On the street, a little girl was riding her bike with training wheels. Her name was Bobbi Sparks, who had just turned 5 a few days ago. Her mother, Brenda Sparks, gave her five dollars to buy something she liked, so the little girl happily pondered what to buy, unaware of the dangers lurking.

Soon, a strange car stops next to the little girl. She looks confused at the strange car when the driver's window rolls down and a skeletal-looking man looks at her and asks, "Sweetheart, what are you doing alone here?"

"I came to buy ice cream. Mommy gave me five dollars to buy ice cream," says little Bobbi, looking at the skeletal man and wondering, "Are you the guy who sells ice cream?" Bobbi asks the strange man in the strange car.

Seeing the opportunity handed to him, the strange man quickly grabs her.

"Yes, we sell ice cream, yes. All you need to do is get in the car, and we'll give you all the ice cream you want," the strange man says, trying to be as friendly as possible.

"Really?" Bobbi asks, tilting her head to the side, "YAY, INFINITE ICE CREAM" ＼(^-^)／ Bobbi thinks excitedly. Then the back door of the car opens, and a big, fat man jumps out.

"Grab her, Wallington, quick, before someone sees and calls the police," Joseph exclaims to his partner, who promptly grabs Bobbi's arm and drags her into the car.

Bobbi, startled by the sudden appearance of the man, tries to escape but is quickly caught by the big man.

"LET ME GO, YOU'RE HURTING ME, MOMMY!!!" Bobbi realizes that the situation is scary and calls for her mother when suddenly a white blur runs past at high speed, bumping into and biting the big man's arm.

"Argh, YOU BASTARD DOG," exclaims the big man as he punches and punches the dog's head that was biting his arm.

Seeing this situation, the scared little BOBBI runs to a nearby house.

Mike POV

I was strolling, looking for squirrels when I heard a shrill scream coming from a direction, and I quickly went in that direction. Maybe someone is calling Mike to play? (´･ω･`)

When I arrive, I see an adult human hurting a human puppy, and a feeling of anger rises in my chest, and I run towards the adult with bad intentions and bite him. He hits Mike, and Mike gets even angrier.

GRRRRRRRRRR, I shake my head from side to side trying to rip the bad man's sleeves off, or what Mike thinks are sleeves.

BANG

Soon, a shrill sound hurts my ears, forcing me to let go of the bad old man.

BANG, TICKTICK, BANG, TICKTICK, BANG

Soon, other loud sounds come that hurt my ears.

Then I see an old man without a leg with a piece of wood pointing at the guy who hit Mike.

Skidd

Soon I see the dark car speeding away, and Mike looks confused at everything (´･ω･`)??

"PUPPY!!" Soon the little human throws herself towards Mike, and Mike feels a good smell, so he pets the little human.

"HAHAHAHA, stop tickling, HAHAHAHA" she laughs happily at the strange-looking dog licking her hands.

Soon the old man with a piece of wood appears and asks the little human, "Is this your dog?"

"No, I don't know whose he is, Uncle Bob," Little Bobbi says, laughing happily, playing with the dog.

"Anyway, this dog is a hero. Bobbi, come with me to bring some treats for him," Uncle Bob limps towards his house.

"YES!!" ＼(^-^)／ the little human screams joyfully.

Connor POV

As soon as I enter the garage, I find my dog eating treats in his doghouse.

"Did you have fun today, buddy?" I say as I stroke his strangely shaped head.

"Woof, woof," he responds cheerfully to my caresses. Then I lie down on the bed, and...
