Who wants a cookie! I know you're out there somewhere! Come on out!

Chapter Eleven: Should I Tell Them?

Sonic looked outside the attic door and locked it up with all of the dogs inside with him. Everybody else was confused as Sonic.

"What?" Dalm asked.

"He can understand us?" Bolt asked.

"Can you understand us?" Jackie asked Sonic. Sonic nodded.

"Are you sure?" Sonic nodded again.

"Can I have a cookie? No. wait! Ten cookies! No, wait! Twenty! I want twenty cookies!" he said as he jumped up and down.

"Give up on the cookies, Jack. You burn off a lot of energy already." Maya teased him.

"Um, I so nervous that I forgot that I was gonna say." Sky said.

Ryan cleared his throat and said, "Listen up, everybody! I know you're excited that Sonic can understand us, but it was all a mishap last night. The Gypsy Emerald unleashed its power when I stepped on it and now the device controls the emerald's power. So, that means we all need to careful around others."

"What do you mean the 'others'?" Sonic asked.

"Everybody else can…understand us."

Sonic looked like he wanted to faint because now everybody else can understand them.

"I can't believe it. My very own dog and the others are talking and everybody else can hear their voices. "What do I look like? Dr. Dolittle?"

"No, but you can't keep this to yourself, Sonic. You need to tell the others."

Everybody else nodded.

"Okay, I'll tell them."

As he opened the door and stepped on the squeaky ball, Sky sat up and said, "Ball?"

She saw the ball and charged right at it, knocking Sonic off of his feet. The ball bounced downstairs and she followed right after it.

All of the dogs came out of the attic and looked down the stairs with Sonic.

"She can't resist one ball. Not even one squeak." Bolt said. They heard a crash downstairs and Ella scream.

"Are we gonna panic?" Jackie asked.

"No." Ryan said. As Mr. Tanaka walked by the stairs, he looked up and gasped when he saw the dogs.

"Can we panic now?" Jackie asked again.

Sweat dropped from everybody's forehead.
