Chapter Three: In Need of Assistance
It took a while for Lucky and Patch to climb the stairs who are struggling but they eventually made it. As they went inside the attic, the noise heard below was reduced. The room is filled with all sorts of musical instruments around for making songs. Light comes from the window with the atmosphere being calm. As they left the door slightly open with the use of their two front paws, no noise is able to disturb them.
"So Patch, what are we arguing about?" Lucky asks jokingly which causes them to chuckle together.
"No arguments Luck but I'm sorry again for what I did to you with the soot back then." he said with his head down looking at him with guilt. "Yeah I'm sorry again too Patch, at least that gave dad an idea for us to escape." Lucky replied which afterwards made them to both giggle.
"Yeah Lucky I'm sorry about that too. Mom really never liked us quarreling. " Lucky hugged him sweetly. "I love you Patch!" "I love you Lucky!" Both of them said to each other their words at the same time as they hug and nuzzle each other in forgiveness with happiness and their tails wagging. A little later, they softly nibble each other's ears which they both chuckled and then proceed to talk. "We're real good friends, right Patch?"
Patch agrees with him while putting his paw on Lucky's shoulder. "Yeah right Lucky! Anyways, you know I'm gonna be busy right?"
"Yeah Patch." Lucky replied to him and so Patch proceeds to present his request to his brother with his face looking like he wants to ask something. "So uhh, while I'm gone, can you be a leader for the others? Cause' you're like what Cadpig said to you, charismatic, and smart and you're a fast thinker."
"Yeah Patch, I always wanted to lead and help others!" Lucky replied with joy and his wagging tail. "Well aside from that, I don't really know how to be a leader like you.
"Don't worry Lucky, I'm sure Rolly, Cadpig and the others will help you. Yesterday, it was just hard because now we got more brothers and sisters. That's why I want you to keep watch for another reason Lucky, you're also our pet's most favorite puppy which is why you're becoming popular to them." Patch said.
"Yeah I guess. So, can you teach me how to be a good leader?" Lucky asks his brother with a wagging tail and an anticipated face.
"Well dad told me a few things about being a good leader yesterday. It's not just all about being brave and being helpful. You must also be responsible of what you do, be vigilant, smart and an example for others to follow." Lucky asked Patch about the word's meaning. "Uh what does vigilant mean?"
"Dad said it means to be watchful, be observant or be aware of your surroundings like watching and listening what's on the Telly or outside of home, maybe Cruella might kidnap us again." Patch answers his question to which he understood what it meant. "So I must remember that I must also be responsible of what I do, smart, vigilant or watchful over others and not just brave and being helpful and be an example to my brothers and sisters, thank you Patch for teaching me! I promise you that I'll do these while you're gone."
Patch welcomes Lucky in turn. "You're welcome Lucky!" It looks like we gotta get outta this room; we better practice this watchdog type of thing. Lucky are you with me?"
"I'm at your tail Patch." Lucky reassures his brother to which they opened the door from its side with their two front paws and headed below through the stairs.
