The New Arrivals

Chapter 9

Regina, Ramona and Floyd had been following the puppies up the mountain to have them lead them straight to their parents. 

The Harpercops and Newtons weren't far behind, doing the same. The Harpercops' dalmatians were out sniffing around, trying to pick up the st bernard family's scent and track them down.  

"Puppies!" Emily and the twins called out. 

"Beethoven!" Kali and the older adventure kids called out. 

Meanwhile~

The puppies had come up to a small bridge and crossed it, with Regina, Ramona and Floyd not far behind. 

"Ugh!" Regina groaned. "I hope those stupid puppies find their mother"

"Me too" Ramona added while she groaned too. 

"I'm getting tired of following-" Floyd was about to say when suddenly, the three of them fell down through the old unstable bridge. 

Chubby, who had seen what had happened, decided to come back over to the bridge. 

"Where are you going, Chubs?" his siblings asked him. 

"Oh, I just gotta take care of something real fast" he told them, then came up onto the bridge and over to the hole where Regina and her lackeys fell into. 

Floyd groaned, being a mess when he looked up and noticed the st bernard puppy. Chubby then did what puppies do best, as some urine started to trail off the bridge and straight down onto Floyd. 

"He's leaking on me!" Floyd cried out. "He's peeing on me!"

Regina, Ramona and Floyd all groaned in disgust, while the puppies then left to continue searching for their parents. 

Elsewhere, the families had discovered some puppy poops, knowing that the puppies had to be close by. 

"We better keep searching" said Walter to the rest of the families. 

The puppies had continued a few miles on their journey, having crossed a log that lead to the other side of the forest. Being small puppies, they had no problem crossing. But as for Regina, Ramona and Floyd, who were still hot on their tails, they weren't so lucky. Floyd had lost his balance and fell off the log that was supporting them and went tumbling down the hill, getting his head stuck in a stump. 

Regina and Ramona had been waiting around impatiently for minutes for Floyd to come back and find them. 

"Floyd? Floyd, where are you?" Regina called out impatiently.  

"That dumb boyfriend of yours better not have gotten lost" Ramona said to her aunt in annoyance.  

Floyd soon came back of the hill, somehow having manged to find his way despite not being able to see with the stump stuck on his head. 

"Floyd!" Regina yelled at her boyfriend who passed by right in front of her.  

"Regina!" Floyd turned to face her with the stump still stuck on his head.  

"About time, dummy" Ramona said to her aunt's dimwitted boyfriend. 

"What's on your head?" Regina asked her boyfriend.  

"It's a stump. I can't get it off" Floyd said. 

"Bend over" Regina told her boyfriend, which he did and she tried to pull it off. 

Regina kept pulling hard when finally, she got the stump off of Floyd's head but ended up rolling down the hill herself now. 

"Thanks, Regina!" Floyd yelled out.
