When Jack realized it was Rasputin, disguised as Mr. Lawrence Talbot in the old Romanov-era building, he rushed with Princess Anastasia to lead into the airport that will lead Jack to one of the biggest city island in United States, New York.

CHAPTER 4: THE NEW YORK CITY DOGS

Jack was sleeping at the time when the plane finally landed in New York, so one of the plane managers had to wake him up in a peaceful manner.

"Excuse me, sir. But you all have arrived at New York City." The waiter said as Jack waked up.

"Well, that is great! Wake up, everyone. We have arrived, at New York City!" Jack called.

"Wow, that was a peaceful sleep for us." Joy said.

"Same for me, it does look pretty big from what i am looking at." Sadness said as she looked at the view of New York City.

So, Jack and the rest got off of the airplane and called a taxi so they can go to a small destination that Jack was hoping for, a gang of dogs. At the same time, the song "By The Time This Night Is Over" performed by Kenny G and Peabo Bryson played on the radio, Jack was jamming and dancing to it as the sun rises at the view of New York.

"Why are you dancing?" Sadness said.

"It's because i love that song since the 90s, I've always jam to this track, just like the 2 Unlimited tracks" Jack said in a happy tone.

"I would love to dance too. Can i dance as well?" Joy said.

"Yeah, you can as well. You love to dance, right?" Jack said.

"Yeah." Joy said.

"By the time this night is OVERRR! The stars are gonna SHINE! On two lovers in LOVE! And when the morning COMES! It's gonna find us TOGETHER! In a love that's just BEGUN!" Jack, Joy, and Sadness sung as they were in the taxi cab.

Not only they danced, but the taxi driver danced as well. The city was also nostalgia in terms of the 80s and the 90s. But those gangs are mean and disgraceful to me or anyone, except the New York City dog gang, which is founded by a homeless, but funny and caring man named "Fagin".

His first well known adventure began when the most infamous Mafia crime boss and loan shark, Sykes ordered Fagin to bring the money to him. But it failed, which lead to Sykes kidnapping a certain girl named Jenny. The gang of dogs, a cat named Oliver, and Fagin was being chased by Sykes in a thrilling chase before Sykes fate was from a deadly train. The train killed him instantly for Sykes and his remains were dumped into the river as the train moved on. But the gang, Oliver, Penny, and Fagin survived the fatality as they were bumped into the top part of the bridge (which holds the train's rail tracks) and made it out in time. The gang is still alive after that and they lived on more adventures to this day.

Jack and the gang finally made it to the location where the dog gang and Fagin is, a small boat that is called home for the gang.

"That is the exact location of Fagin's gang." Jack said.

"Well, of course. I have seen Oliver and Company before." Joy said.

"Anyways, let's go to the boat and talk to Fagin." Jack said.

Jack and the gang got out of the taxi and entered into a huge bridge that leads down into the small boat. Joy had those haunted moments before, as she was in Riley's mind before. She was trying to go back into Headquarters and then Goofball Island started to crumble and fall into the Memory Dump. Revisiting those moments before while walking the bridge all the way down to the boat is frightening for her, especially Sadness as well. But we made it in time and we started to knock the door loud. A couple of minutes later, Fagin answered.

"Hello. Who is it?" Fagin said.

"Greetings, sir. I am Jack Jones, and this is Joy and Sadness. Can i come in to talk?" Jack said.

"That is cool, guests everyone!" Fagin said in a happy and joyful tone.

Fagin opened the door and greeted them in, like it was a surprise party for a person who was either a hero or just a surprise for a individual who is been hailed as the most successful filmmaker, I mean holy cow that was a shocking and crazy in a twist that i have never seen in a gang.

Either way, we started to see a lot that was familiar, like it was in the film, Oliver and Company. In the place, it contains items like a primo wallet, a 80s radio, an old television set that was destroyed by one of Sykes's Doberman as his example for a sense of humor line, and a old chair that Fagin sits when he reads a story to every one of his dogs in his gang.

His dogs were: Dodger, Tito, Francis, Rita, and Einstein.

"The most shocking thing that i have found out is that... is that... Mr. Lawrence Talbot is actually Rasputin, an evil sorcerer that almost killed Anastasia and lead the Russian Revolution!" Jack said.

"Holy cow! That is indeed shocking! I just can't believe that i have always believed that Talbot was a good guy, but now that i just heard it, It shocked me so much that my jaw is dropped, big time!" Fagin said in a shocked voice.

"Not only that, but the gypsy girl told me about Rasputin's secret survival tactics, at the time when he got shot, poisoned, and entered the waters. The icy cold waters. By the way, the name of the gypsy girl is Esmeralda." Jack replied.

"Hold on, so you were talking to the gypsy girl the whole time and then you finally found out that the whole time?" Dodger said.

"Holy cats and dogs! You can talk!" Jack yelped in shock.

"Of course I can talk. We do, in fact, have a secret in every dog's life." Dodger said.

"Extraordinary... But still, I don't understand how Rasputin survived after all those years of decayed bodies of those who died in the Romanov palace." Jack said.

"Same for me. It's like if there was a curse in the Black Pearl when all those who lived there in that ship, are all skeleton crews at night. It seems impossible, but it looks like that is true." Fagin said in a confused voice.

"Do you think we should go to the streets of New York and find out on that mystery?" Jack said.

"Sure, but let's wait for a couple of minutes while I give you all some very delicious breakfast." Fagin said.

But then, a rumble occurred and out of the distance, a savage yell came from the outside of the boat. But wait, that couldn't be savages in the top of the boat or anything, it's like if there is a angry monkey going savage and trying to find me. We should go out now before someone would come in and try to kill us.

"Never mind, let's get out now!" Fagin said in his scared and frantic voice.

Suddenly, the bottom wooden parts that holds the boat together exploded in chaos, and started to crumble in milliseconds.

"LET'S GET OUT! WE'LL NEVER MAKE IT!" Joy said out of nowhere.

So we started to run out of the boat and climbed up to all the way of the bridge to the very top of the roads. Not only that the boat started to fall, the stairs were falling off into the waters of the Hudson river.

"EEK! MY SHOPPING CART! LET'S GET IT!" Fagin said in shock.

Just as Fagin said it right, we rushed to the shopping cart, which was located at the middle of the bridge, and we managed to enter inside the shopping cart, along with the dogs and Fagin himself.

"WHAT'S GOING ON!" Jack yelled.

"We can't reach the very top of the ground! We'll never gonna make it!" Fagin said.

"WERE GOING TO DIE!" Joy said in her scared voice.

"OH, FOR THE LOVE OF PETE!" Jack yelled as he reached out his farting beans.

"How did you get that?" Dodger said.

"I got those on my way here, if you did not notice now." Jack said.

Jack ate those farting beans and then the dynamite exploded from his butt. The speed that we were going to the top was almost a thousand miles per hour, and then as soon as the bridge crumbled and fell altogether, we finally made it to the top, thanks to those beans.

"We finally made it!" Jack said.

But, Fagin was looking down at the view of the Hudson River, where his boat was there before.

"My boat... everything is gone... why... OH! THE HUMANITY! YOU DID IT! YOU BLEW IT UP! DAMN YOU! DAMN YOU ALL THE HELL!" Fagin yelled as he collapsed in sadness.

"Don't worry, it must be that traitor himself. He did it. He blew it up alright." Jack said.
