The trio make their way towards the RVs and started to gather food from the various people. "Okay, I'll go first," Lucy said, having no choice but to do the dog face at the humans so she could eat. One thing she was worried about was the fact that the humans might turn away because of the scars she had on her body.
She barked a few times to get the owners' attention. It worked, revealing an elderly couple on the other side. They did see the scars on her, but they didn't turn away like Lucy had feared. She gave them the dog face like Bolt did.
The couple awed at the husky before giving her a hot dog before they closed the door to their RV. "Huh, can't believe that they did that. Guess not all humans are bad," she said, picking up the hot dog. "Nice going, Lucy," Mittens said happily.
"It was nothing. Now you try, house dog," Lucy said modestly. Bolt looked at her hesitantly. "Will it work?" he asked. "Hey, if it worked for me, it will work for you. Now go," Lucy replied, sharing the hot dog with Mittens.
Bolt went to the next rv, acting adorable for the people. After a while of doing this, they walked to a smaller RV who had hamsters in it. Lucy sat beside Bolt while Mittens hid underneath a picnic table.
The two dogs barked a few times to get the owners' attention, which was an elderly lady that was really short. She wore a straw hat and wore sun visors over her eyes. She saw the two dogs sitting outside.
The woman wasn't scared of Lucy's scruffed up and scarred physique. "Well, hello, puppies. Did you two come for some of grandma's butterbean dumplings? Mmm-mmm-mmm! You two wait right there," she said, walking back inside of her RV.
Lucy started to see the good in these humans because any other time she would encounter humans back in New York, she was always met with aggression. She definitely saw it while being in the ring.
Mittens came out of hiding and walked to the two dogs. "Look at you. Quite the actor, huh?" the cat says to Bolt before leaning back. She rubbed her belly and noticed that it was different. "Hey, look! My stomach's distended! How great is that?" she exclaimed.
"Yeah, well, don't get used to it. We gotta keep moving," Bolt said, going back to being serious. Mittens didn't like the sound of that. "B-But this place is a gold mine! What's wrong with you? Every week, new RVs bring us new suckers that bring us new food. Look around! It's perfect!" she said, walking around the two dogs.
Before Lucy could say anything, the trio hear a clattering sound come from the picnic table, getting them to look up at it. The clattering sound had come from a brown and white hamster who was in a see through ball.
He looks at Bolt and lets out an excited gasp. "Do my eyes deceive me? Is this some apparition that I see before me? Or could it be... *Rolls onto seat of the picnic table* MY HERO!!! OH, MY GOSH, OH, MY GOSH, OH MY GOSH!" the hamster cheered with joviality as he ran back and forth in the ball.
"You're Bolt the Superdog! You're fully awesome!" he said with a laugh. Both Lucy and Mittens were puzzled by this. "Wait a minute, you know this dog?" Mittens asked. The hamster got back up after spinning inside of his ball.
"Oh, I do! He is fully awesome!" he answered. "Yeah, yeah, yeah, we get the point. Who are you exactly?" Lucy asked, shaking her head a bit. "I'm Rhino," the hamster said.
"Rhino... the hamster?" Mitten asked in disbelief. "Well, y'know my ancestry isn't all hamster. I'm 1/16th wolf with a little wolverine in there somewhere, but-but that's besides the point! We have before us a legend. Bolt the Superdog! He can outrun speeding missiles and burn through solid metal with his heat vision! Oh, oh! And best of all, he can obliterate large structures with his superbark!" Rhino shouted excitedly.
"Wait, you've seen the superbark?" Mittens asked in complete disbelief. "Have you been observing me?" Bolt asked in amazement. "Oh, yeah! I watch you all the time!" Rhino answered.
"That's incredible!" Bolt said, impressed that Rhino was able to do that. "Oh, it's nothing really!" Rhino said modestly. "But I'm always so vigilant. No one can evade my detection. You're a phantom," Bolt said, making Lucy roll her eyes.
"Gag me with a spoon..." she said under her breath. "Uh... if you say so. Hey, check it out! *He jumped to his right to reveal a mark* Take a gander at this Bolt action! Scary, huh? It's like we're twins..." Rhino said as he looked at him.
Lucy and Mittens saw that the markings looked nothing like Bolt's. "Yeah... scary..." Mittens says, completely unimpressed. "So where's Penny?" Rhino asked, facing forward.
"She was kidnapped by the Green-Eyed Man," Bolt replied with widened eyes. Rhino was shocked to hear this. "Kidnapped? *Gasps* This is terrible! She could be in grave-" Rhino started as he paced back and forth.
Bolt put his paw on Rhino's ball and said, "Grave danger, I know. But I've captured this cat and other dog," "Agents of the Green-Eyed Man, I presume?" Rhino said angrily as he glared at Lucy and Mittens. Lucy dropped her ears all the way and looked at him, completely unamused. Mittens had the same expression on her face.
"You presume correctly. They're taking me to Penny," Bolt said. "You... You two are vile vermin! How do you two sleep at night?
Penny's the most wonderful person ever and she loves Bolt. And he's awesome and you're a monster! How dare you disrupt their relationship with your evil! Die! Die!" Rhino shouted, charging towards the two of them.
Bolt was trying to stop him. Lucy growled at the angry hamster. "Back it up, rodent!" she said, backing up. "Whoa, easy Rhino, easy," Bolt says, managing to calm him down. "You're right, we need them alive," Rhino said breathlessly.
"Uh, we?" Mittens asked. Lucy didn't listen to what was happening; all she knew was that Bolt was insane to bring a hamster that was just as delusional as he was.
"Welcom aboard!" Bolt said excitedly. Lucy stood back up and she walked up to Bolt. "Hey, can we talk for a minute?" she said, using her back paw to kick Rhino away.
Mittens walked up to them. "Look, we don't know what's going on here, but we're a litte bit concerned about the number of lunatics on this trip. My limit is one," Mittens said.
"He's coming with us," Bolt said while smiling in a smug way. "Oh great. Now we can all be a bunch of braindead idiots together," Lucy said sarcastically, putting a paw on her chest.
Mittens felt a nudge on her leg, making her look back. It was Rhino, who had returned after Lucy had kicked him. "Move it, prisoners. We're losing daylight," Rhino said. "I agree. Now we need a fast set of wheels," Bolt said.
"Oh, I got a better idea. Follow me!" Rhino said, rolling away in his ball.
