The Great Camden Dog Caper

Chapter 2

Camden Park, one hour ago...

A few months have passed since the Dalmatians survived the ordeal with Cruella, and since then they've tried to do the best they could to move on with their lives.

The puppies were having a great time playing at the park.

"Bow wacka wow!" Dolly shouted as she performed tricks on her skateboard.

Dylan, on the other hand, was resting on the grass.

"Come on, bro!" said Dolly. "You're missing out on all the fun!"

"Nah," said Dylan. "You go on and play, sis. I just wanna relax for a while."

"Okay, Mr. Sleepyhead." Dolly went back to playing.

"Yeah. I definitely need this."

Unbeknownst to the Dalmatians, they were being watched. A van was sitting outside the park. Inside were four suspicious-looking men. One sat at the driver's seat. Two of them were spying on the Dalmatians through binoculars.

"Look at all them Dalmatians."

"So many of 'em."

"I see three of 'em that are definitely worth the catch."

"What about the little ones?"

"Nah. Little puppies aren't worth much."

"Alright. Let's go."

Three of the men stepped out of the van while the fourth man stayed to keep the engine running. They went to the back of the van, opened the trunk doors, and took out three catcher nets and three small tranquilizer guns.

"I'll get the one with the star. You two get the one with the neck rings and the black-furred one."

"Right."

"Let's move."

The three men spread out.

Catcher One slowly approached Dylan.

Dante, who was standing around doing nothing, noticed the catcher and immediately could tell trouble was coming. "D...D...D...," he stuttered.

Dizzy and Dee noticed Dante stuttering.

"What's wrong, Dante?" said Dizzy.

"Is there something wrong with your teeth?" said Dee Dee.

Dolly then noticed and approached Dante. "What's up with you today, Dante?"

"D...D...DANGER!" Dante shouted and pointed his paw at Dylan.

The pups stopped what they were doing when they heard the shouting. They looked towards where Dante was pointing at and saw the aforementioned danger. The catcher aimed his gun at the unexpecting Dylan. Shock immediately struck the pups.

Dolly quickly shouted, "Dylan!"

Dylan, still sleepy-eyed, woke up and said, "What?"

"Night night," said Catcher One, and he shot a tranquilizer dart into Dylan's back.

Dylan felt a light sting; and as the tranquilizer coursed through his body, he started feeling drowsy. "What...the heck...was that?" He then completely fell unconscious.

Dolly, fearing the worst had just happened, immediately dashed towards Dylan and the catcher. "You get away from him right now!" she shouted.

Just then, Catcher Two appeared out of nowhere and quickly caught Dolly in his net. He then enclosed the net and laid it on the ground.

Dolly struggled trying to get out. "Let me out! Let me out!" She then looked at the unconscious Dylan. "Dylan, wake up! Please wake up!"

"This is a feisty one," said Catcher One.

"That she is," said Catcher Two, who then shot a dart into Dolly.

The pups couldn't believe what was happening before their very eyes. Their two older siblings, who've always looked after and protected them, had just been taken down by bad men.

Catcher One put Dylan in a net and enclosed it. "Right, let's load 'em up."

The catchers picked up their captives and made their way to the van.

"Hey!" said Diesel. "Where are they going with them?!"

"They're gonna take them away!" said Delgado.

"Let's get 'em!" shouted the Dimitri Trio.

The pups charged.

Dante stayed behind, his mind reeling with shock and disbelief by what'd just happened. He walked backwards saying, "This is bad! This is bad! This is bad!" He then felt his back hitting something. He turned around and saw Catcher Three standing behind him, who quickly aimed and fired.

The other catchers opened the back of the van and put Dylan and Dolly in it. The pups caught up to them and started barking at them furiously.

"Oh look," said Catcher Two. "The puppies wanna put up a fight."

"Do they now?" Catcher One took out his phone and selected what looked a sound recording app. "Well, wait 'til get a load of this." He pressed the Play button and held the phone out.

To the catchers' ears, no sound was being heard; but to the pups' ears, they suddenly started hearing a loud, screeching sound that made them scream and wither in pain.

"My ears! They hurt!"

"My head feels like it's about to burst!"

"Make it stop! Make it stop!"

The catchers watched the pups fidgeting and whimpering.

"That never gets old," said Catcher Two.

Catcher Three then came back. "Oy, got the third one." The pups were shocked when they saw him carrying an unconscious Dante in a net.

"Right," said Catcher One. "Put him with the others and let's go."

With their captives loaded up into the back of the van, the catchers took off. The pups stopped withering when they'd left and were completely dumbfounded and confused.

"What the heck was that all about?!" questioned Delgado.

"It sounded like a really loud dog whistle!" said Dawkins.

"My ears are still hurting," said D.J., "and I'm wearing headphones!"

"Why did those bad men take Dylan, Dolly, and Dante?!" said Da Vinci.

"This is very, very bad!" said Deepak.

"We need to call for help!" said Triple D.

"Right!" said Dawkins. "I'll initiate the World Wide Woof! Some of you go find Pearl and tell her it's urgent!"

"Right!" Some of the pups left to go find Pearl the Police Horse.

Dawkins ran up to a park bench and jumped onto it. He raised his head up and shouted, "Mom! Doug! Emergency! Dylan, Dolly, and Dante have just been abducted while we were at the park! This is not a hoax! Come quick and hurry!" He then let out a loud howl. The pups followed his lead, and the World Wide Woof was initiated.
