At the Fudo house...
"Your dad's really a spy?" Cherry asked Atticus. "I thought that was just a movie like with Damien Drake."
"Nope, he really is a spy." Atticus said.
"You and your crazy family..." Cherry commented. "My family seems normal compared to yours which is shameful."
"Anyways, me and Dad will be away on a secret mission." Atticus said.
"Oh, sure, just abandon me..." Cherry replied.
"Aw, Cherry, don't be like that..." Atticus told her. "You have other friends than me, why don't you hang out with that Katie girl you see sometimes?"
"If she's not too busy with Willy..." Cherry shrugged and shuffled her foot.
"Is it true that she's gonna marry the Willy Wonka with the Chocolate Factory?" Patch asked.
"Indeed..." Cherry nodded. "I'm the chief bridesmaid."
"Cool." Patch smiled.
"Oh, Patch, that reminds me..." Cherry knelt down and took out chocolate.
"Ooh, the forbidden snack..." Patch drooled and licked his muzzle. "No! I can't, it'll poison me!"
"No, this one won't," Cherry promised. "It's a special candy that Willy made for dogs allowed to have chocolate, I asked him to make it so you could try it without getting sick."
"Thank you!" Patch cheered before eating the chocolate.
Cherry smiled.
"Finally." Patch smiled back as he was now finally able to eat chocolate.
'Maybe I could include Patch.' Atticus thought to himself.
"How is it?" Cherry asked.
"So sweet and creamy..." Patch licked his lips. "Whoever this Willy Wonka is must be a genius when it comes to candy."
"Patch, how would you like to come with me on a secret mission with Dad?" Atticus asked his dog.
"A secret mission?" Patch's eyes lit up.
"Something against a guy called Dr. Zin who has his own cat army." Atticus replied before Cherry burst out laughing.
She soon saw that he was serious which was a surprise.
"Are you done?" Atticus asked.
"Yes, sir, sorry, sir..." Cherry said after quieting down from her ruckus laughter.
"Anyways, our Intel tells us that three of his cats in robotic armor will be in Florida." Atticus said.
"Wait, Florida?! But that's where Robyn her father and Tom and Jerry and Peep will be going for their Spring Break!" Patch panicked.
"Are you sure?" Atticus asked.
"I saw them just leaving before I came back here," Patch replied. "They could be in serious trouble!"
"Then we have no time to lose." Atticus said.
Patch looked out the window as a car pulled up.
Patrick came through the door and looked to his son. "I hate to interrupt anything, but it's highly advised that we go now and not waste any time, Cherry, go home."
"Robyn and her father and Tom and Jerry and Peep are all on their way to Florida." Atticus told his father.
"We might have to move faster than I thought, and why are you still here?" Patrick asked Cherry.
"I'll leave when I'm good and ready." Cherry replied.
Patrick soon pushed a red button.
Cherry was then flung out of the house. "I'LL SEE YA LATER, ATTICUS!" she called out while flying through the air.
"All right, guys, quickly, get your stuff ready to go," Patrick told Atticus and Patch. "We don't know when Zin will strike, but we have to be fast on our feet."
Fortunately for him, Atticus used super-speed to pack their things.
"That's my boy." Patrick smiled.
"Thanks!" Atticus smiled back.
"Now let's get going." Patch said.
"Hey, by the way, what about Mom, Jessica, and Darla?" Atticus asked as he sat up front while Patrick adjusted his mirrors before pulling out of the driveway.
"Ah, don't worry about them," Patrick smiled. "I pulled some strings to let them go to the Netherworld Spa for the week."
"Smart," Atticus smiled. "But what about Casper?"
"Doc Croc and Yo-Yo wanted to see him, so that should keep him busy," Patrick replied. "Those three seem so close ever since you guys met Aladdin and Princess Jasmine."
"They sure are." Atticus nodded.
Patrick smiled as he drove to the airport.
Many people were of course leaving to go to Florida or to the beach for Spring Break this year, but luckily, they were able to make a flight.
"Whew." Atticus sighed.
"It wasn't easy." Patrick chuckled.
Patch whined as he had to go in the baggage hold.
"Hey, Tom, isn't that Patch?" Jerry asked from his and Tom's cage.
"No way, it's just some other dumb mutt." Tom dismissed, not knowing how right his mouse friend was.
"Excuse me?!" Patch barked.
"It's Patch." Jerry knew it this time.
"Oh, uh, hi, Patch..." Tom smiled nervously to the young Dalmatian.
Patch glared at Tom.
"Uh, when I said dumb mutt, I wasn't talking about you," Tom smiled nervously. "I meant that dog Spike and his puppy Tyke."
"That's what I thought." Patch smirked.
Tom shivered nervously while Jerry chuckled.
Soon enough, it was time for the plane ride. Robyn was a little nervous since she hadn't seen Jonny since they were little and she wondered if they could still be friends.
"Robyn, are you okay?" Mr. Starling asked.
"I'm just thinking..." Robyn sighed softly.
"Ohh." Mr. Starling said out of understanding.
Robyn sighed as she stared out the window. "I wish Mom were here..." she then said softly as she would be a teenager soon.
"I know, honey, I know..." Mr. Starling sighed as he gently patted her on the back. "I wish she were here too sometimes."
The plane ride went by fast.
"So... You're becoming interested in boys..." Mr. Starling sighed as he knew his little girl was growing up. "Didn't you like that Max Russo kid?"
"When we kissed after that adventure we first met, I didn't feel anything..." Robyn explained.
"Well, that's interesting." Mr. Starling said.
"I also had a dream about Jonny... I saw him older now..." Robyn replied. "He looked so... Cute..." she then blushed when she said that word.
Mr. Starling chuckled. "A lot of people who saw you two together did think you were adorable together."
This caused for Robyn to blush with a smile. Mr. Starling smiled back to his daughter as he gave her a hug.
Soon enough, when the plane landed, a lot of people moved into a temporary shelter called the beach house which was close to the ocean and there was going to be nothing but sun, surf, and fun, except for maybe Patrick who was mostly going to be working despite this being a vacation and where it would become adventurous.
Tom and Jerry had on their own swimming trunks and Robyn wore a green two pieced bathing suit as she joined them on the beach. Tom had most of the supplies and was going to find a place to get a tan while Jerry came from the bar to do the same thing. The dog and puppy that Tom wasn't very fond of were also on the beach.
"Oh, it's that bully dog, Spike and his puppy Tyke." Robyn firmly pouted at the bull dog who loved to make Tom's life miserable, but unfortunately for those who were bullying, Tom was twice as strong as the two of them and every other dog combined.
"I always run into that bully." Tom firmly pouted as he took out beach gear after getting on his swimsuit.
"But this time, he won't be able to bother you." Jerry smiled.
"True..." Tom smirked.
Tyke came up behind Tom and began barking to scare him with a rather dark smirk on his face only to see he was unsuccessful in scaring him. Tom smirked and then kicked sand in the puppy's face. Tyke coughed and cried as he got sand in his eyes. Patch found that a good punishment for the pup.
Spike soon came over with a glare since his pup was being bullied. "Hey, Pussycat, who do ya think you are?!"
"You want some of this?" Tom glared at his old bully. "I'm not scared of you anymore!"
Spike soon got nervous and scared of Tom due to his new body.
"Spike, come here, boy!" A man called out to his dog.
Spike soon went back to his owner. Tom smirked as he then set up the spot for the beach.
"Jerry?" Robyn looked around as she was putting on sun tan lotion. "Where's Jerry?"
"Come on, Peep, the water's not gonna hurt you." Jerry soothed his alien girlfriend.
"You sure?" Peep asked.
"See?" Jerry knelt by the water and gently splashed with it. "It's fun!"
Peep winced as she backed up, a little too scared and nervous to try it out since she was an alien.
"I'll be right with you." Jerry assured her.
Peep shook her head and backed up. "N-No... That's okay, you go ahead..."
"Peep, come on," Jerry sighed. "You live on this planet now, the least you can do is experience it... I experienced your planet and its strange things." he then reminded her of when they first met.
"Alright." Peep sighed back.
"Come on, you can do it." Jerry smiled.
Peep took a deep breath and winced as she slid off her boots and put her feet in the water and she cringed almost as if she expected to spontaneously combust, but to her surprise, she was just fine and nothing bad happened to her.
"See?" Jerry smiled.
Peep smiled back and soon came closer into the water and laughed as she enjoyed it. Jerry laughed and playfully splashed her so they could have some real fun and soon enough, they had their own water fight. Tom smiled to that as he decided to just catch some rays under the sun.
