That Morning..
Skeeta woke up, as if he was still a little scared from the nightmare he had last night. Skeeta got off the bed, still with his uniform on. He went into the kitchen to see Bonnie and Rosie making breakfast.
"What are you guys having for breakfast?" Skeeta asked.
"Well, since you can't eat something for dogs, then maybe it'll be great just to make some normal breakfast for you.." Bonnie replied.
"What's that?" Skeeta asked.
"These are pancakes that my mother used to make when I was a little pup." Bonnie said.
"Well, that seems good.. Thanks, Bonnie for making them.." Skeeta replied.
"My kind regards.." Bonnie pleaded.
Skeeta noticed that Clyde and Hank are gone, still eating the pancakes Bonnie made. Skeeta swallowed the bit of the pancakes before talking.
"Hey, where are Clyde and Hank right now?" Skeeta asked.
"They just went to the store to buy a few things.." Bonnie replied.
Skeeta noticed a Smithfield/Border Collie mix next to Bonnie.
"Who's that?" Skeeta asked before taking the next bite of the pancakes.
"Oh, that's Rosie. Rosie is Hank's sister, like his age but a bit bigger." Bonnie said.
"Well, nice to meet you!" Rosie said before Skeeta said something.
Instead, Skeeta greeted Rosie.
"Nice to meet you too.." Skeeta greeted.
Rosie smiled and went back to the kitchen. As if Skeeta took a bite of the pancakes, he thought of something that he would join the Mascot Manor, then eats again.
Sometime later..
After Skeeta finished the pancakes off of his plate, he rinsed the plate and puts it in the dishwasher, making sure the dishes are for before cleaning. When he puts the plate in the dishwasher, he closed the dishwasher door, and walked out of the kitchen. When Skeeta tried to open the front door, Rosie noticed.
"Where are you going?" Rosie asked.
"Oh, I'm just going for a walk around the neighborhood. I'll see you when I get back." Skeeta replied.
"Oh, OK! Have fun!" Rosie called.
When Skeeta went outside, then closed the door, he thought of something of what Rosie said after the word.
"Fun? But.. Why is it fun? It's just for exercise.." Skeeta thought.
Skeeta continued walking around the neighborhood, then saw Hank and Clyde walking onto the sidewalk. Skeeta waved at the two dogs, then they waved at him back. Skeeta chuckled a bit when Hank and Clyde waved at him back. So Skeeta continued to walk onto the sidewalk.
Some minutes later..
Skeeta continued to walk, then suddenly, a noise came towards him. Skeeta shook, then tilted his head when the noise came towards him. Only it sounds like a motor running from a Ram Truck, or even an old Ford F-150.. Then the noise got even louder and louder. Skeeta propelled his wings, then flew up a little higher. Skeeta saw an old truck driving faster onto the street.
"What's going on?" Skeeta asked himself as he saw the truck driving faster.
Skeeta's temper increased a bit, so he flew towards the driving truck. When he continued to follow the truck, he noticed that there is a sign onto a yellow car, saying "Hawthorn FC".
"Hawthorn? Am I sure when the yellow car just drove all the way to Essendon?" Skeeta thought, asking in his mind.
Skeeta continued to fly while following the dark-teal truck. Skeeta noticed when he saw a phrase when it said "Chevrolet" on it. When Skeeta kept following the truck, a person looked at the power mirror as it saw the red mosquito. The person honked the horn, but Skeeta kept ignoring it. Skeeta took a closer look at the back view of the car's window, it was a Hawk, wearing a brown-striped yellow jersey. Skeeta tried to follow the yellow car, but the Chevy decided to bump onto him, then the truck pushed the car onto the rear bumper. Skeeta flew back to follow the truck, but then the truck stopped pushing the yellow onto the bumper, then Skeeta continued to follow the dark-teal truck. As if the car had to make a turn to escape the truck, but it was only a mid-dead end back to the restaurants. The yellow car tripped onto the concrete bumper onto its front black bumper. The car fell right onto the ground, leaving it severely crashed as Skeeta watched in horror. The dark-teal truck drove back to where it went earlier.
"This can't be! Why would this stupid person make a car crash onto the ground!?" Skeeta yelled in anger/sadness.
Skeeta turned to the crashed car in horror, and then walked by it. He looked by the window, and then shook when he saw Hawka, severely hurt. Skeeta pushed the crashed car right back to the ground to the standing form. Skeeta checked when there was a dark-teal Chevy, but that was no person, it was spiritual AFL fan who is a Tibetan Mastiff. Skeeta shook as if he thought of the dog-like spiritual fan.
"That's no man! That's the Tibetan Spiritual Fan!" Skeeta thought in horror.
Skeeta tried to open the door, but it was locked. He grabbed a small rock, the smashed the left window carefully. He unlocked the doors, then saw Hawka, in critical condition. Skeeta opened the door, then took Hawka by his arms. He went to the phone booth, then called 911.
Some minutes later..
The abulances have arrived, as Skeeta still with Hawka. The paramedics saw Hawka in critical condition.
"Oh my! How could he be hurt like this!?" The first paramedic asked.
"We have no clue yet!" The second paramedic replied.
Hawka was cover in stains of blood, some shards of glass all over his body, and even half of his uniform is ripped. The paramedics took Hawka to the emegency room while Skeeta watched.
Back at Clyde's house..
Skeeta went back into the house, then saw Clyde and Bonnie with Hank and Rose, watching the news. They were all shocked and sad as if the news said that there is a car crash in downtown Essendon.
"Well, there's a car crash in downtown Essendon.. I'm sad to see this, Skeeta.." Bonnie sighed.
"Well, I hate to say this, but I found that Hawka is in the car crash too, severely injured.." Skeeta replied.
The dogs all shook in horror.
"Hawka? Who's Hawka?" Hank asked.
"The mascot. The mascot of the Hawthorn Hawks, before when Mascot Manor started." Skeeta explained.
"Mascot Manor?" Rosie asked.
"Yes. It was in Australia, when all AFL mascots live there.." Skeeta said.
"Well, we should go there when it starts.." Clyde called out.
"Not yet! We have to wait 3 more years before we live here.." Skeeta replied.
"Well, is this is when all mascots live there?" Bonnie asked.
"Yes.." Skeeta said.
"When Hawka feels better, we should check of how he's doing.." Clyde said.
"Great idea.." Skeeta replied.
Days later..
At the Hospital, Skeeta and the 4 dogs went to Hawka's room, with Hawka still in bed. Hawka had stitches almost all over his body, and even an icepack on his bruised left eye.
"How are you doing, Hawka?" Skeeta asked.
"Skeeta?" Hawka shook.
"Yes. It's me.." Skeeta replied.
"Is that you?" Hawka asked again.
"Yes, that's him. He's that mascot of the Essendon Bombers, before Mascot Manor started.." Clyde explained.
"Skeeta! I know it's you!" Hawka cried.
Skeeta gave Hawka a hug as if Hank and Rosie both smiled.
"I knew that a Hawk and a Mosquito would be happy together.." Clyde said.
"But be carefull with your-" Before Rosie finished her sentence, Hank said his sentence to his sister.
"It's fine, sis.." Hank pleaded.
"Skeeta, I'm glad that you are here!" Hawka cried in excitement.
"I tried to save you from that dog-like fan, but you managed to escape, but then left a car crash.." Skeeta said, leaving a teardrop flowing onto his left eye.
"I'm glad you saved me from dying.." Hawka said.
"Dying? You were in critical condition! You have glass shards almost all over your body, and even blood stains! That car crash was severe, you could've been killed!" Skeeta cried.
"I know, but thanks to the ambulances, I am no longer in critical condition!" Hawka replied.
Instead, Skeeta sighed and answered.
"I'm glad you are." Skeeta said.
Days later..
Skeeta decided to live in an apartment with Hawka, near Clyde and Bonnie's house. Skeeta stil felt bad about the car crash that happened a couple weeks ago, but the trusted himself that everything would be alright. But something may not work out for some mascots. Hawka told Skeeta something about what happened to Woofer.
"Woofer? What do you mean, Woofer is in the dog shelter!?" Skeeta asked.
"Well, he couldn't find a good home stadium after a current mascot is taken place, so one person took Woofer to the dog shelter." Hawka explained.
"I-Is that dog shelter that bad!?" Skeeta shook.
"No! I found out that the dog shelter has freshly made dog food, all good for dogs, and they even have nice people who took care of dogs, in a nice way! And trust me, the backyard for the shelter is very big, with some dog toys onto the grass too." Hawka explained again.
"Thank goodness. I thought some shelters are bad!" Skeeta sighed.
"They used to be like that.." Hawka said.
"Well, what are we waiting for!? Let's get Woofer back!" Skeeta cheered.
"Great idea, Skeeta!" Hawka said.
Skeeta and Hawka both went out of the apartment, then went to the dog shelter "Helpful Paws: Friendly Dog Shelter", where Woofer current is right now..
