The picnic had just ended, and the pups had just helped pack everything up. " Well, that's everything. Nice packing up, pups!" Ryder said, complimenting them. Mayor
Goodway then approached them, and said, " Oh Ryder! I'd say the picnic was a success." " Mr. Porter's hamburgers were so delicious!" Marshall exclaimed, with the
other pups nodding in agreement. The Earl of Barkingburg then approached Ryder, " Ryder," he said, " the Princess was wondering if Chase do an escort, for Sweetie."
The Princess then walked up carrying a cage with Sweetie inside. " Sweetie would love for you to escort her for a nice walk on the beach, Chase. Would you like to do
the honors?" The Princess asked Chase. " Sure thing, Princess." Chase replied, but he regretted that decision when he saw Sweetie smile directly at him. Soon, Chase
and Sweetie were walking on the beach together. " So, how were the hamburgers? Were they good?" Sweetie inquired. " Yeah, why do you ask?" Chase answered,
unsure what to think. " I wouldn't be asking at all if I were allowed to eat anything besides corn!" She exclaimed, leading to an argument between the two pups as
they stopped walking. " You deserved more than that! After putting a spell on us to turn me and my friends against each other, and trying to take over Barkingburg,
you should consider yourself lucky you didn't get a bigger punishment!"Chase yelled. " Well, maybe if I was chosen to be Queen of Barkingburg, that wouldn't
have happened!" Sweetie yelled, as people on the beach turned their heads towards the argument. " You weren't chosen to rule Barkingburg for 2 reasons. One is
that only a Prince or a Princess can become Queen. Secondly, it's obvious you would make a very terrible Queen!" Chase pointed out, making her laugh. " Oh, please!
Remember when we first met? I was a great Queen after I stole the crown and framed you for it. But your friends came along and ruined everything." Sweetie said
with a evil smile. Chase, not wanting to attract anymore attention then they already had, motioned Sweetie to keep walking, making her think she won. As they kept
walking, Sweetie spotted a ship on the docks. It was strange, as it had what looked to have a big flag with a chest and bones on it. Sweetie then realized it was the
ship that she spotted on the water at the picnic. She saw two figures on board. One was a boy dressed in a pirate hat, and the other was a Dachshund pup with a red
and white stripped cap dressed in a black shirt. Chase caught Sweetie's eye, and soon he saw them too. " Come on." Chase said to her, looking worried. They walked
over to the docks as the boy and the pup got off the ship before spotting Sweetie and Chase approaching. " Hello Sid. Hello Arrby. Staying out of trouble?" Chase
asked them. " Arrgh, yes, we are indeed! Why?" Sid answered. Chase shrugged, then looked at Sweetie, " Sweetie, this is Sid the pirate, and Arrby. Sid and Arrby,
meet Sweetie." Arrby just starred at Sweetie, " Wow." he whispered. " Arrgh, you must be from Barkingburg." Sid said to Sweetie, who nodded. Chase then
quickly pulled rolled-up paper out of Sid's pocket, and unrolled it. " What's this? This is a plan to steal stuff from people on the beach. Let's see what Ryder has to say
to this." Chase said. " No please, don't." Sid pleaded. Sweetie then spotted a broken wood board that had torn off the dock. She grabbed it using her mouth, and just
as Chase was about to contact Ryder, she swung her head and hit Chase with the wooden board on the back of the head, knocking him unconscious.
