ME: Okay, some of you may think Butch is dead. Let's see if you're right or not...
"Boss!" Boot shouted as the Anatolian Shepherd came into view. "You're alive!"
"That you're correct on," Butch said. Dutch nuzzled, Diggs sighed in relief and patted him on the back, but Butch had to get to business.
"HQ, this is King. ' Repeat, HQ, this is King. Please respond, repeat, please respond. Over."
"Roger that King," a certain Beagle said. "Status report, over."
"Kitty Galore has been neutralized, I repeat, Kitty Galore has been neutralized. Operation Light in the Dark was a complete success, over."
"Understood. Any casualties? Over."
"Carrier got captured but is still alive," Butch answered glancing at the Pigeon. "He looks fine but I think we should let him rest for awhile. Alpha Ones sister had a splinter. We didn't bother to treat it with the mission so it could've been infected. I fell on one of my legs roughly. Still can walk but I'm starting to get to old for this. Please advise, over."
"Copy. Alright, standby."
There was a considerable silence on the radio. There was peace during that time apart from the remains of Paws being blown up by Shovel and Logger. As robot parts landed around him Butch found his former student get bacl with him.
"Alright King. Sorry for the delay but I needed to see you guys get back personally. Over."
Butch noticed his subordinates were listening in based on their expressions. Signaling it wasn't wise angirly with his paw, they all apologized and decided to kick around Paws head. Except for Seamus who began playing tic-tac-toe with himself.
"-King? Over."
"Sorry boss," Butch apologized. "Had to deal with Zero. Please repeat, over."
"Hang on for fifteen minutes. Before you ask YES I had evac waiting for you guys. And we have a lot to talk about my friend. Over."
"Oksy sir. Just what is it about? Over."
"Let's just say it concerns the future of your task force. Out."
ME: Gee, wonder what Lou wants to do with Task Force Zero? I'll give you a hint; twenty-four letters/words in the Greek Alphabet, and so far there's only Alpha and Beta. Keep in mind that I didn't have breakfast when I wrote this, so it may not be my best chapter yet.
