it feels as though I been walking forever and I am starting to feel even more unpleasant as I feel myself starting to stick out my tongue a little as I tried to take in some much needed
air into my lungs as I flop to the ground and I feel how nice and soft the grass is, I know I ended up in some kinda park
and I thought I would take a short cut through it and thought I would find Little Bro much faster that way as well but something tells me I'm no where close to achieving that goal sadly
and I'm starting to grow very tired...I guess I could rest for a bit but not for too long, Rita must be looking for me by now and must be pretty mad at me for taking off like that while I was still not feeling too good, well I still
feel a little out of it but I can't really worry about that right now because I need to find and save Little Bro
and who knows what he is going through right now and to be fully honest, I kinda am starting to blame myself for him being taken...
if I had only stopped him from going with Dodger and them, none of this would be happening right now and he would be back with the others safe and sound
and me and him would still be trying to figure out a good place for him to live and be happy because lets face it
Fagin can hardly get by feeding himself and Dodger's Gang, how can he feed both them plus himself and a kitten?
and the chances of the poor little guy surviving from not eating enough at his young age was very slim and I could only hope that the people who have him right now give him something to eat
speaking of food the last thing I had to eat was the two pieces of bread that Rita gave me last night and to which looking at the sky and see that it appears to be getting dark to which meant I didn't have very long
and I was still too tired to move and keep on my search and I could feel my eyes closing
but as I feel my eyes closing I thought I saw two front paws walking towards me and after that I feel my eyes shut and my mind go blank as I feel myself fall asleep
and making myself unaware of who had found me in my most weakest state at the moment.

well well if it isn't the young teenage doberman, man is she a runt...and what is she even doing out here all alone?
and come to think of it where is Dodger and his friends? ya would think they would come out here with her but something told me that this little runt came out all by herself
but that wasn't the only thing I notice, I all so started to notice how unhealthy she looked
"what do I care what happens to one of Dodger's friends, even if it is a new one."I said and I turn myself around and started to get ready to leave the park but something in my gut stop me
and I look over to her and see that she seem to becoming worse by the minute she was out here and if she didn't see help soon...who knows what could happen and I really was thinking of just leaving her here
but then something inside me stop myself from leaving and that was the same gut feeling that made me decide to do something I never thought I would ever do for anyone besides my brother and that is being nice and helping this female doberman I don't really know
and I know I'm going to regret this later and if Roscoe finds out about me being nice to another dog (let along a friend of Dodger and his friends) he will never let me hear the end of it.
I use my mouth and pick her up by her neck (like how mine and Roscoe's foster mother use to pick us both up when we were younger, and she wasn't even a toon doberman, she was a real life doberman, man I miss Ma.)
and then after I had the little runt I started to head out of the park and head back to the hideout and I might need to hide this runt until I can figure out how to break the news to Roscoe about her being in our hideout away from Sykes when he is mad
about not getting his money on time and taking out that very anger out on me and Roscoe and lucky for us he has no idea where our hideout is because it is in the last place he would even think to look and even hates the idea of going to such a place
so we both knew that Sykes would never step foot in such a happy and some what crazy place such as that town, to which me and Roscoe don't much care for the place ourselves but it really is the only place where we feel at peace and safe from that mad man.

after the little drama scene in the kitchen that happen a few hours ago, both myself and Georgette were getting ready to go to bed
when she sees Jenny watching a late night movie with the kid who she had named Oliver when we were still in the kitchen and to which even her naming him seem to make Georgette ticked off
and make her dislike Oliver even more and I was afraid if she let her dislike and jealousy gets the best of her, she could end up doing something that could place the poor kid in danger and perhaps even emotionally hurt Jenny
to which might be the last thing Georgette wants to do to Jenny, she may act like she doesn't love Jenny but I know deep down next to being a show dog, I think Jenny comes first to her heart because I know the reasons why she doesn't like
the thought of another pet in the house (and I don't really don't count since I'm only here as a guest/maid to Georgette.) and that is because she is afraid of them taking Jenny's love away from her.
and she shouldn't feel that way, a love and bond a owner and pet share is big enough for another to be in it and maybe if she gives it time she will form a loving bond with him and start to see him as family, but when that will happen I don't rightly know
but I could only hope that day comes soon before Georgette gives in to her desire to get rid of him and end up hurting Jenny in the process and I know the last thing Georgette would want to do if she was thinking clearly was to let herself hurt Jenny
and I got a weird feeling that she will see how her jealousy will hurt Jenny in the end if she doesn't stop herself first before its too late.

when I feel myself coming to I see that I'm in some room and I look to my right because I was curious as to where that refreshing air was coming from and see it was coming from a air conditioner
and for some reason I did feel a little better and less like I was burning up like crazy like I had felt when I was out looking for Little Bro but I had to stop because I had to rest
but I know when I was resting I was outside not inside but where I am right now I have no clue but I could only hope I will be able to find Little Bro and see if he is okay and if he is eating and if turn out he has found a new home with those people who have him
I wont tell the others where he is because the last thing he needs is for them to go after him and 'saving' him to which when he really doesn't need it.
what he really needs is a home and someone who loves him, he doesn't need to get mix up in whatever they are up to and even though I have respect and trust in Rita doesn't mean I feel that way about the others because they will need to earn my trust as well as my respect
and that means telling me what they are up to and why they seem to have very little food and possibly very little money as well, even though I did ask Rita what kinda work they do she seem to hold a look of guilt and started to refuse to tell me believing I wasn't ready to hear the truth
and after that she and the others with Little Bro left and that of course was the last I saw of the poor little guy to which I can really only pray he is doing okay and the ones who have him right now is treating him well.
"well your finally awake are ya? about time."I hear a familiar voice say and when I look over to where the voice came from I was surprise to see the last person I would see once again after what happen the last time we had met
to which he might still be mad at Little Bro for what he did to him and might be mad at me for being friends with him and might even take out his hate for Little Bro on me and I don't know if me fighting back would work well not only that but it be stupid and dangerous to try.
"if you didn't catch the name before, it is DeSoto."he says to me and then he gives me some food that thankfully wasn't dog food and I thank him and started to eat the food he gave me.
"what were you doing out there in the park all alone anyway? you do realize it can get really dangerous at night if you stay in that park too long."he said to me and I really didn't think about it could be dangerous if I stayed there for too long because all I could think about was finding Little Bro
and making sure he is safe.
"why should you care what happens to me?"I asked him to which he seem to be taken back by me asking him why he should he care on what happens to me but then he seem to regain himself before answering me
"I don't! and it was only a one time thing kid!"he tells me and I couldn't help but find myself growling at him for calling me a kid, I wasn't a little kid I was seventeen years old! I didn't know how old I was in dog years right now but I know that I'm still pretty young compared to DeSoto and that Roscoe guy
"don't you growl at me!"he yells at me for growling at him.
"well don't call me a kid!"I yell right back at him and even got up in his face and we both started to have stare off until the door to the room open up and someone stop us.
"hey DeSoto what are you doing? we gotta get going you know if we stay away too long Sykes will be-"Roscoe said but stops before he could finish what he was saying when he saw the two of us glaring at each other.
and then he looks from DeSoto to me and then back to DeSoto "care to explain what she's doing here?"Roscoe asked
"do I have to?"DeSoto said as he sounded like he really didn't want to explain why he brought me here.
"yes, yes you do."Roscoe said with a smirk and I hear DeSoto groan in displeasure before telling him "fine! I'll tell you why but not here, come on." and then the next thing I knew it both DeSoto and Roscoe left the room and headed else where to talk in private
to which I didn't understand why he couldn't say what he was going to say to Roscoe in front of me but whatever I'm just going to finish eating and then I'm going to head out and try to find Little Bro like was the original plan and it ain't nobody going to stop me
not even those two outside this room.
to be continued
and just to let you know I'm going to have DeSoto and Roscoe form a bond with her and at some point they will find out she is a human and she will find out everything she been through in this story was real but she will find this out in the The Lost Birchwood: Take Two, to which I'm planing to have those two in.
so yeah the three will form a bond like how any human would care for a pet and how a pet would care for a human.
but a few things need to happen first before the bond starts to form and I think in the next chapter I will have the point of view of one of the Toon Patrol in it
and it will go back to Bernice or one of the others point of view.
and if anyone has some ideas that they want me to put in this story I would be happy to hear them and I have a little idea on what Georgette could be up to in the next chapter but I wont say what it is and you all will have to wait and see for yourself and anyway I hope you like this new chapter and keep a eye out for the next chapter :)
(12/30/2018: just edited this to say that because of some changes for this story and what is said in Chapter 17, Bernice will know that everything that has been happening in this story wasn't a dream and did happen and I might just move some of the chapters of TLB: Take Two
to the plan Flashbacks in The Lost Birchwood: Sixth Saga.)
