"Okay, Charlie, if you want Sasha to like you, as in fall for you, you got to find out what she looks for a guy." Patch whispered to the German Shepherd.
"And how do you know more about romance than I do, kid?" Charlie whispered back as they walked along.
"Patch is right, find out what Sasha likes in a guy." Colette whispered.
A tram passed them as they walked down the street on the sidewalk.
"Which way to Canary Square?" David asked.
"Uh, just follow your nose!" Charlie called as they passed a construction site, but luckily, didn't get hurt, then decided to talk with Sasha alone, taking the puppy's advice. "So, is there a Mr. Sasha?"
"Nope, and I'm not taking an application." Sasha huffed.
"Okay, okay, but if you were, what qualities would you look for in him?" Charlie prompted.
"I don't know..." Sasha didn't sound interested in talking with him.
"Oh, come on, there's gotta be something you're interested in a guy." Charlie said.
"Hmm... Well..." Sasha started to list what she liked in a guy. "Loyalty... Strength... Breeding..."
"I'd be good at that." Charlie grinned eagerly at the last part.
Cookie and Lucky cringed while Patch and Colette's eyes widened.
"Humility... Compassion..." Sasha continued.
Charlie nodded to her until he accidentally ran into a steel gurter and fell in the middle of the ground.
"Ooh, that's gotta hurt." Patch winced.
"Of course, style." Sasha then finished.
"Charlie, are you okay?" Mo bent down next to the fallen German Shepherd.
"Boy, are my ears ringing..." Charlie said, dizzily.
"Yeah, you're right." Itchy agreed.
Patch put one ear up and looked over. "Charlie, those aren't your ears, it's the horn, look!" he then pointed to show a cop carrying a very familiar instrument in his hand.
"Alright, then, you go get it, Itch, while I stay here with Sasha." Charlie told him.
"Uh-Uh, getting the horn is your job, I'll stay with Sasha." Itchy said.
"Guys, I hate to break it to you, but Patch is already sneaking in to get the horn himself." Atticus said.
They looked over to see Patch was indeed going to the police station.
"Where's he going?" David asked.
"Uh, Confidential Guardian Angel business." Itchy lied with a sheepish smile.
"Okay, all I have to do is get the horn and get out, simple." Patch whispered as he was sneaking in.
Cherry was by his side.
"Cherry?" Patch looked up.
"Uh, I thought maybe you could use some help..." Cherry smiled nervously with a shrug.
"Cherry, I need to do this by myself, go back and wait with the others." Patch whispered to her.
"But-" Cherry whimpered.
"Go back..." Patch said. "If I need help, I'll come back."
Cherry sighed and walked back over in defeat. Patch simply shook his head before continuing on. He stood by the doors, passing as a K-9 Unit.
A couple of cops passed the Dalmatian and pet him as they were on their way out the doors. Patch then took this opportunity to slide into the police station and came into the back office, looking for the horn, but was unable to find it so far.
"Get this, McDowell!" one cop said as he read his newspaper. "Man finds TV in his vacuum cleaner!"
"Last week you believed scientists created intelligent lunch meat," the other cop grumbled. "That's why everybody's afraid to act out."
Patch simply rolled his eyes, these two didn't seem to be too focused on any work they had to do. "Uh, hey, buddy?" he then asked, sneaking up behind the one cop as he wrote down in forms. "You got a lost and found nearby?"
"Room 112 in the back." the cop told him, not even noticing that a dog had asked him that question.
"Thanks." Patch nodded and went off to look for the Lost and Found, highly assuming that the horn had been placed there.
"I'm tellin' ya, McDowell, there's some pretty weird things in this world." the other cop said as he looked at his newspaper.
"Well, that was easy, now just gotta get to room 112." Patch smiled quietly.
The puppy wandered around as he looked for the room as a couple was handing a picture to a female officer and the couple told her that they had a little boy who ran away from home. David had ran away from home so Patch decided to stay hidden and overhear of what the couple had to say.
"Any ideas why he ran away?" the officer asked as she held a picture of the lost boy the couple had come for.
"It started when we were talking about the baby," the woman said as the man cradled her in his arms. "David got very upset..."
'I was right, he must have thought that the baby would replace him.' Patch thought to himself.
A few cops passed Patch. The Dalmatian turned his head and wandered inside the room as the doors opened, he would deal with those two later if possible. He did his best to hide and sneak around as he looked for Gabriel's Horn on the way.
"Now, where could this guy that has the horn be?" Patch asked.
He kept looking all around as the other officers were hard at their own individual work. He then looked in the far back and saw the words 'Lost and Found'.
"Perfect." the puppy grinned as he went down that way as the cop with the horn was heading straight for that direction.
And where the cop that was taking the horn into the lost and found room looked like he had way too many doughnuts. Patch followed closely to the very chubby cop. The cop checked out the horn and blew it to see if it even worked before putting it on the stand next to the other lost objects. The moment he blew through the horn, the door behind him closed. Patch got out of the way, making sure he didn't get hit by the door, but kept close and quiet so he wouldn't blow his cover to literally fetch the lost heavenly horn.
Of course, this wasn't going to be easy with the collar on, he would be seen by the cop the moment he tried to sneak towards the horn and fetch it. The cop's zipper even unzipped down from the horn blow, and he started to zip up his pants. Patch then took off his collar and snuck in, using his ghostly/angelic powers that he now had to retrieve the horn while the cop was distracted.
"Come on, come to Patchy." Patch smiled as he floated towards the holy horn. He grabbed the horn and was about to leave with it, but the door closed behind him, which made the horn get caught and fall back down on the floor.
The cop noticed that, then picked up the horn and put it back in place, thinking he must had dropped it.
"Of course it couldn't have been Gabriel's Kazoo or something, nooo..." Patch folded his arms with a scoff as he floated in mid-air. He knew exactly what he needed to do, so he decided to grab his collar and go back outside and get some help.
"Listen, kid, living on the streets seems easy, but it isn't always easy..." Mo said to David, trying to talk him out of running away from home and living on the streets like she used to. "You have to look for food, you have to be on the look-out for anyone who could hurt or kill you, you'll get fleas..."
"Yeah, but I'll be on Canary Square," David smiled. "I'll get money for my magic tricks!"
"He does make a good point," Atticus said. "But still, David, you can't live on the streets your whole life and there are some people who don't exactly pay attention to performers."
"Yeah... Some of them are really weird..." Cherry added in the best she could without sounding bitterly cynical.
"I'll make sure to try to keep away from them." David said.
"All right, Itchy, what's Patch up to?" Sasha asked.
"I can't tell ya, my lips are, ya see them, they're sealed." Itchy replied, refusing to tell Sasha the truth of why they were near the police station.
"Itchy?!" Sasha growled, wanting to know.
"Mm-mm!" Itchy shook his head, 'sealing his lips'.
"Aw, come on, Itch, what harm could it do?" Charlie asked.
Suddenly, Patch appeared between them as he put the collar back on to make himself visible.
"So, Patch, did you get it?" Atticus asked.
"Unfortunately no, I was so close..." Patch pouted at himself.
"So, now what do we do?" Colette asked.
"We're gonna have to bust it out." Patch said.
"Hey, I like where this is goin'." Charlie smirked.
"It?" Sasha asked. "What's 'it'?"
"Patch, no!" Itchy scolded. "I know you were raised better than that!"
"It's the only way, Mr. Itchy." Patch told him.
"What's this all about anyway?" Sasha demanded.
"Ya ever hear of 'Gabriel's Horn'?" Charlie asked the female Irish Setter, much to the dismay of Itchy.
Itchy snarled and threw off his hat in defeat, he couldn't believe that Charlie gave it away like that. Little did they know, Carface was secretly there and listening in on a plan that Patch was making out for them.
And where it included David, Atticus, Cherry, and Forte to act as blind people with their lead dogs.
"Could you, uh..." Cherry asked the court composer.
Forte then nodded to her and became his teenager form so he wouldn't get scolded for hanging around her due to being hundreds of years old.
"Just keep walking," Patch told the humans. "Just great..."
"Patch, I don't know about this..." Colette whimpered slightly.
"Don't worry, this plan will work." Patch whispered.
A cop was walking with a K-9 Unit who had a muzzle. This dog then looked to Itchy and snarled viciously at him. Itchy screamed and freaked out, running all around. The K-9 Unit then snarled at Patch, looking like he wanted to hurt him. Cookie stood in front of Patch protectively and barked aggressively to the intruding dog like a mother with a child in distress. Lucky included, both acting like parents for Patch. Patch looked up and smiled to the two adult dogs. The K-9 Unit started to back up nervously as Lucky and Cookie snarled at him.
"What do we do now?" Mo whispered.
"Plan B, guys!" Charlie called.
"Good idea!" Patch agreed.
"Donuts!" David opened one door to alert the cops. "Fresh off the truck!"
This made all of the cops in the room grin eagerly and hungrily, running out of the doors to get some donuts.
"I can't believe that worked..." Cherry mumbled.
"Same here." Mo said.
Soon, the dogs and humans rushed inside, as there was only one cop left as she was behind her desk. Two other cops spotted the intruders and chased them as they were on their way to the Lost and Found.
"Hey, hey, come back here!" the fat cop demanded as he started to chase them all around the station.
Itchy skid on the floor, accidentally running into the female cop which made her papers scatter all around the floor, hitting the file cabinet which started the fire alarm.
"Well, that wasn't part of the plan." Colette said.
Charlie then made the fat cop slide into the water cooler and the tank ended up on his head.
"Neither was that." Patch added to Colette's comment.
Itchy grabbed the keys from the fat cop's pants and chucked them to Sasha who then tossed them into David's direction as one cop was chasing him.
"But we'll just have to roll with it." Atticus said.
David ran with one cop which made the cop fall against the floor and get his face caught in the door.
"Oops, sorry, officer!" David apologized as he took the keys back, but two cops came behind him.
"Okay, son, give us the keys." the fat cop demanded, gurgling slightly due to his mouth being in the water.
"You make me sick..." the other cop scowled, looking deathly serious.
Cherry rushed over to David's side as she showed her empty sleeves. "Nuthin' up my sleeves, except these!" she then took out a pair of handcuffs and cuffed the two officers together by hand. "Oh, David, what's that behind his ear?"
David took a look, then as if by magic, took out the keys and bowed. "Thank you, thank you, you've been a great audience!" he then ran with Cherry as they had the keys, doing a quick magic show as a diversion.
Patch ran into the lost and found so he could get the horn. The cops tried to chase Cherry and David, but the handcuffs made them run into a wall and they both instantly fell down. Atticus got the keys from Cherry and threw them over to his puppy. Patch jumped up and caught them, going to the Lost and Found door, then within minutes, came back with the horn in his mouth.
The female cop got her papers together, but fell down once again as David ran into her and knocked her down. "Oh, my gosh, David..." she recognized the boy as he ran off with the others. "DAAAAVID!"
"Come on, let's get out of this joint." Charlie said.
"Please! Sit! Stay!" the female cop called as the humans and dogs got away.
Carface was outside the door, waiting for the right time to snatch the horn away from the good guys. He then jumped off the side and hid in the bushes as they were on their way as a guy was getting off his motor scooter.
"Quick, on the motor scooter!" Charlie called out.
"There's no way we can all fit on that thing!" Cherry said.
Atticus used his magic and made the motorized scooter bigger for them all to use it.
"Of course..." Cherry said, then looked greedy. "Uh, maybe I should hold onto the horn... To keep it safe?"
"No way," Patch muffled. "I'm holding on to it."
"Uh, okay.." Cherry twiddled her fingers.
The humans wore helmets as Charlie started the motor scooter and they hijacked it as they escaped with Gabriel's Horn.
"And we're outta here!" Patch cheered while holding on to the horn.
Itchy fell off as they were off and the female cop tried to chase them. The wiener dog then got back up to his feet and rushed after them the best he could with his short legs.
"What do we do now?" Colette asked.
"Just keep goin'!" Charlie hooted and hollered.
"Have you learned nothing from the dog pound when we were pups, Charlie?!" Lucky glanced at his German Shepherd friend.
"Apparently not." Cookie mumbled.
"We're not going to leave Mr. Itchy behind!" Atticus told them. "But we're also not going to let that cop catch up to us!"
"Itchy's not on board?" Charlie asked. "Huh... I never noticed."
"Poor Itchy can't catch a break." Cherry said as she made sure her necklace wouldn't fly off from the crazy scooter driving.
"Are you sure you know what you're doing, kid?" Sasha asked Patch as he was driving the scooter.
"Aw, trust me on this, I'm positive we can make it... About by 50%." Patch said.
"And the other 50!?" Sasha panicked then.
"Uh, what're the odds of that happening?" Patch shrugged.
"We're gonna get seriously hurt, aren't we?" Sasha's eyes widened.
"What? No, besides, it's my first day on the job." Patch said.
"I thought you Guardian Angels were supposed to help people!" Sasha yelped.
"It's our first day on the job!" Charlie defended, using Patch's excuse as they drove off.
The officer got into a squad car and started to drive off after him. Carface then hijacked a skateboard and followed them to get the horn.
"I have a bad feeling that someone is after the horn." Atticus said.
"Heh... No kidding..." Cherry chuckled nervously.
"Let's hope Mr. Itchy can catch up with us." Patch said.
"Jump, Itchy, I'll catch you!" Mo held out her arms.
Itchy ran beside them, then started to jump, but ended up on top of the police car right behind them. Patch swerved by a passing car next to them as they were going down the street, passing several innocent bystanders.
"Whoa, where'd you learn to drive, Patch?" David asked, impressed.
"You'd be surprised..." Cherry mumbled, she remembered when Patch drove the car in her 'Rock-A-Doodle' adventure.
Carface tried to climb up, but kept slipping, as he climbed up, the police woman saw him and blasted the sirens to knock him off which startled Itchy since he was right on top of the sirens. The scooter and car were right next to each other now as they were flying and now riding down a steep hill.
"This is never easy." Atticus said.
"I think I'm gonna be sick." Cherry said.
"Could be worse, Cherry, you could be Carface." Mo gestured to the pit bull dog as he was flopping around behind the police car, having miserable bad luck.
"She's right." Atticus said.
Cherry looked to her locket as it flashed slightly. The police car was now going down the steps on the hill.
"I'm gonna barf." Itchy groaned as he had a rougher ride than anybody else.
"Yee-Haw!" Charlie cheered.
"Having fun, are we?" Colette deadpanned.
"Just hang on tight!" Patch told her.
"I trust you to be the driver." Colette said to him.
"You got it." Patch smiled.
Colette smiled back to him. Patch nodded firmly as he drove the scooter the best to his abilities.
"This contraption is making me nauseous..." Forte looked ill as he held his stomach as they had a rough ride down.
"You must not be use to vehicles yet." Mo said.
"Well, forgive my upbringing for being the early eighteenth century..." Forte defended.
"What?" David glanced back.
"Uh, he's Amish." Cherry made up.
"Yeah." Mo added.
"Really?" David wondered if that was true or not, but just shrugged.
"Let's just say he's still new to some of the vehicles." Atticus said.
"Okay..." David shrugged again.
Carface grinned darkly as the car was now coming in front of the scooter, he jumped off the car in an attempt to capture the horn, but he missed and ended up in a newspaper box. The police woman screamed as Itchy flew off the top of her car and she crashed into a fire hydrant, activating the air bag and she was stuck. Charlie then caught Itchy as he flew in the air and ended up with them. "
"Mr. Itchy, you finally got your flying lessons!" Patch smiled.
"I'm gonna get you for this, Charlie!" Itchy grumbled as they got away freely.
"That'll have to wait for another time, Itchy boy." Charlie told him.
Itchy growled.
