CHAPTER THREE: THE ADVENTURE BEGINS (AND ENDS?)
Bolt, Mittens, and Rhino were walking down the road the crooks went down. All of a sudden, Bolt saw a large white object lying on the road. "What's this?" Bolt asked, walking up to the object and sniffing at it. "It looks like a map" Mittens said, approaching her mate and looking at the map. "Well, where did it come from?" Rhino asked. "I don't know, but look at this" Bolt said, pointing his paw at some writing scribbled above a circle drawn over a large building, "it says 'THIS IS WHERE WE'LL HIDE THE KIPPENS'." "MY BABIES" Mittens cried as she heard this. "Calm down Mitt's, we'll find them" Bolt assured her as he wrapped his paw around her back with her crying into his shoulder. "Where are they Bolt?" Rhino asked. "It says they are at a warehouse in Niagara Falls" Bolt said, looking at the map. "But that's in Canada" Rhino said. "Regardless, we're going" Bolt said, "come on Mitt's, you've gotta calm down." "I know Bolt" Mittens said, pulling out of his shoulder, "Let's go." "What about Penny?" Rhino asked, "Won't she be worried when she see's we're gone?" "Maybe, but we have no choice" Bolt said, "We have to find our kids." And with that, Rhino folded the map, stuck it in Bolt's collar, and the 3 headed off to Niagara Falls to find their family.
"Where are they?" Penny asked her mom, having noticed that Bolt's, Mittens', and Rhino's beds were empty. "Maybe they're on a walk" Penny's mom suggested, "They do that from time to time." You're probably right mom" Penny said, "I'm just worried. With what just happened, I can't help worry about them." "I know honey" Penny's mom said, hugging her daughter. "I'm sure they're fine."
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU LOST THE A MAP!" Ray said to his brother, hitting him in the head. "Sorry Ray" the brother said, "I was more concerned with keeping the kippens in the bag." "Well, then we'll have to ask for directions" Ray said, looking around and spotting a gas station, "There's a gas station. "They'll have the info we needs." As the 2 drove up to the gas station, their low-fuel indicator lit up. "Great, now we needs gas. Since I'm the smarter one, I'll pump the gas and you go get's directions to Niagara Falls." "Sure thing Ray" the brother said. As they got out of the car, Ray spoke up. "Bring the bag you idiot. We don't want the kippens getting away." "Okay Ray" the brother said as he picked up the bag and walked inside. "Hello, can I help you" a young woman reading a magazine said from behind the service counter. "Hi, my name is Hank" Hank said, feeling the kippens squirm around and tightened his grip on the bag, "and I need directions to Niagara Falls." "Oh" the woman said, not even looking up from her magazine, "Well, you just continue up this road for 1000 miles, turn right, and drive up for about 5000 more miles until you reach a bridge. You cross the bridge, and you're there." "Thanks" Hank said as he walked out. "Well?" Ray asked as Hank came out of the building. "We go straight 1000 miles, turn right, drive 5000 more miles, go over a bridge and we're there." Hank said, remembering everything the woman said. "Great" Ray said as they got in the car. "So how much was the gas" Hank asked. "What do you mean how much?" Ray asked, "I didn't pay." And with that, the 2 criminals drove away to the falls with a car full of stolen gas, and kidnapped kippens.
"Which way do we go?" Rhino asked once they got to an intersection. "Check the map" Bolt said. Mittens grabbed the map from under Bolt's collar and unfolded it. "Looks like we turn left here" Mittens said, examining the map. "Left?" Rhino asked. "Right" Mittens answered. "Wait, right?" Rhino asked, confused. "No, left" Mittens said. "Left?" Rhino asked. "Right" Mittens said. "Right?" Rhino asked. "No, left" Mittens said. "Left?" Rhino asked. "Right" Mittens said. "Right?" Rhino asked. "NO, left" Mittens said. "Can we stop this" Bolt suggested. "Good idea" Mittens and Rhino said at the same time. "So which way are we going?" Bolt asked. "Left" Mittens said. "Alright then" Bolt said, folding up the map, "let's go." And with that, they turned left and headed on their way.
An hour later, Ray and Hank's car was parked on the side of the road. "I thought you said it was 1000 miles, right, 5000 miles, over a bridge and we're there!" Ray said to his brother. "That's what the woman at the gas station said" Hank said. "Well, does THIS look like Niagara Falls?" Ray asked. Hank looked around and saw desert for miles around. "No" Hank said simply, "maybe I should have bought a map from the woman." "THERE WERE MAPS!" Ray yelled at his brother, punching him in the head repeatedly. "Yeah, but I didn't have any money!" Hank said as he tried to defend himself. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN BUY! WE'RE CRIMINALS! WE DON'T BUY ANYTHING!" Ray said as he continued punching his brother. "Well, we could try to find one at that gas station over there." Hank said pointing to the right. "What?" Ray asked, turning to look at where Hank was pointing and seeing the gas station, "oh." Ray got off his brother and they piled into the car and drove over to the gas station.
"Hello" Penny spoke into the phone. "Hello, is this Penny?" "Yes" Penny answered, "and who is this?" "This is Officer Douglas from the police department" Officer Douglas said. "Oh, hello officer. Do you have any news?" Penny asked. "Not yet" Officer Douglas said, "but can I speak to your mother please?" "Sure" Penny said before covering the receiver with her hand and called to her mom, "MOM! Officer Douglas is on the phone and he needs to talk to you." "Okay Penny" her mom said as she took the phone, "Hello." "Hello" Officer Douglas said, "I know this is sudden, but we need to place a monitor on your phone. We think that the kidnappers will call to demand a ransom within a few days for the kippens." "Sure, that's fine" Penny's mom said into the phone, "Come by anytime. I'll be here all day today and tomorrow." "Excellent, we'll be there within the hour. Goodbye" Officer Douglas said. "Goodbye" Penny's mom said as she hung up the phone.
"Now where are we?" Rhino asked. Bolt and Mittens looked around and saw nothing but trees. "We must be in some sort of forest." Bolt said. "Let's keep moving" Mittens said. "Agreed" Bolt said as he, Mittens, and Rhino started walking. "I see a break in the trees up ahead" Bolt said as he stopped. Mittens and Rhino stopped and looked where Bolt said. Indeed, there was a gap in the trees where light was pouring in and where they could see the sky. "Let's go" Rhino said and they started running. As the three of them emerged, Rhino, who was in front, stopped short as he reached a ledge, under which a river was running. Mittens, seeing Rhino stopped, skidded to a stop just before crashing into him. Bolt however didn't notice they stopped and crashed into them, sending all of them into the river. Once they all popped their heads above the surface, treading water while doing so, Bolt swam up to Mittens and wrapped his paws around her. "RHINO!" Bolt called. "I'm right here Bolt" Rhino said, swimming up to him and Mittens. "I'm sorry guys" Bolt said, "I should have been paying attention to where I was going." "It's alright Bolt" Mittens said. "She's right" Rhino agreed, "It could be worse. There could be a waterfall up ahead." "You mean like that!" Bolt said, pointing his paw ahead to where the river was taking them, a 100 ft. waterfall! "There's nothing to grab onto!" Mittens said as they neared the ledge. "I guess this is it" Bolt said, "I just want to say that I've had a lot of fun with you guys." "So did I Bolt" Rhino said. "And Mittens," Bolt said, "I love you so much." "I love you too Bolt, so much" Mittens said, wrapping her paws around Bolt as tightly as she could. "I'm just glad that we can all be together in the end" Bolt said as they neared the end of the line.
