Torn Hid under the front desk at the most popular Restruant in town. He licked his lips as waiter carried steaming steaks to each costumer, sending a wonderful meaty sent to his nose. Fianaly he couldn't hold it any longer, and he lunged. He leapt onto a table, making the people scream. Everyone started to run round, and Torn slid and tripped, knocking over the table, and wrapping himself in a tablecloth.

 He ran wildly in cirlces knocking over and breaking things, as Workers tried to capture him. His eyes were completly covered and he coudn't see a thing.Suddenly he tripped over the blanket, and fell face first on the floor. A waiter cought him and dragged him out the door. "NO GOOD MUTT!" He screamed as  the locked the door behind him.

 Torn sighed,but then saw the full trash can beside him.He dug un, finding a scrap of streak, witch he gulped down instantly. When he got home, his owner grabbed him by the collar an flug him back outside. "I got a phone call about wha you did you little rat! You'll be lucky if you ever get to comeback inside!" He yelled and slammed the door.

Torn knew he wasn't Fully getting kicked out, and would come back when his owner had cooled down, so dicided to take a nighttime stroll throught the town. He walked along when he saw Dakota. Not noticing Marcie close by, he walked up to her. "Hey, what are you doinng outside? your normaly in with your owners by this time." He said.

"Well they went on vactation or somthing, but the dog sitter only comes in the morning to feed me, and forgets to put me outside at night, but who cares anyway?" She said. "So why are you out tonight?" She asked annoyingly. "Well I got the boot by my owner for breaking into a reasturaunt." He laughted. Marcie walked up. "You bad boy you! How....Brave...." She smiled.

Torn rolled his eyes. "Sure Marcie, whatever you say." He sighed. She was still mad at Dakota for getting his attintion. "Well sence were all stuck out tonight, well Marcie could go home, but anyways, why don't we all stay in the boiler room tonight?" Dakota smiled. Marcie's ears percked up. A whole Night with Torn? She thought to herself. "Yeah Torn! What do ya say?" Marcie barked. "Sure." He smiled.

They walked into the boileroom and curled uo by the ferness. Dakota lied down, Torn lied down across the room, and Marcie Lied with her head watching Torn, witch he had no idea about..When she woke up, Dakota was gone, Torn was snorring, and she was rolled over on her back. She picked herself up, and sat down to watch Torn. He stirred in his sleep and Turned over facing Marcie. "WHAT THA- YOU FREAKING STALKER!" He jolted up from out of his sleep. He was in a differnt spot then where he fell asleep.

"NO no no! I was just goinng to wake you up, but you beat me to it!" Marcie lied. Torn diddn't say a word, walked out and lapped up some water from a nearby Puddle. He saw Dakota sitting on the beach, watching she seagulls and sparkling water. He walked over to her. "Sup D." He smiled. "Morning T By the way, Was that snorring or an elephant nearby?" She joked. "Oh ho ho, you like to make jokes in the morning huh?" He said Laughting.

"Yeah well, I gotta go so I can get some breakfast." Dakota smiled and walked off. Torn started to walk off, when Marcie came from behind him. "What do you see in her?" Marcie said, slightly growling. "Who Dakota? I don't like like her, just Like, as a friend." He lied. "Oh commone, I so know you like her!" She said."Well geeze then Marcie don't tell her."Torn Growled.But Marcie wouldn't dare tell Dakota, in fear of her liking him back.

"I wont, but what do you see in her?!?" Marcie said, stopping him from walking. "look Marcie, I don't feel comfertable talking to you about this kinda stuff, okay?" He said ad walked off. Marcie stood growling to herself."I hate her...she will pay for this, I liked him first anyways." Marcie growled. But Dakota only like Torn as a friend.

A few weeks later, Torn started to relize Dakota was getting...bigger....like Pups bigger. He at first was depressed that she allready had a mate, and was completly inlove with him, but then relized somthing. That night when they were all together in the boileroom....could he be the father, but he knew one thing, she was too young to be having pups, and he could have put her in serious danger.

He knew the right thing to do was to tell her, but kept it to himself. "Um...hey Dakota...." He smiled, a bit worried looking. "Oh hey Torn, what's up?" She smiled. He hated how inoscent she looked. "Um....so I hear your owners are back in town." He asked. "Yeah, it's nice." Dakota said. "Cool....well um...bye then..." He said and walked off. Marcie also noticed Dakota's growing stomach, and was extremly mad, but to keep her cover as being a friend to Dakota, she knew she couldn't to a thing.

Torn walked up to his older brother Zuko's house. He was his "Go to" person for help.He told him the entire story."Well I guess you'll find out in a few weeks then." Zuko said. "But Zuko, I can't wait that long." Torn sighed. "It's okay, has she said anything about the pups?" Zuko asked. "Well no but-"

"But what? Oviously if she's not worried, so you shouldn't be, bro." Zuko smiled. Zuko hardly ever made sense to him, but allways seemed to know what he was  talking about.

Torn figured he'd go get a bite to eat, and went around back of the Butcher's shop to the meat locker. He snagged a steak, when the Butcher came aound the corner and saw him, he Hit him with the broom and slung him outside.

When Torn got back home, he wasn't surprised when his owner chained him up to the front pourch. He curled up under the rocking chair, and wacthed over the quiet streets. Suddenly He watched as Dakota's owner rushed he out of the door, holding her tightly wrapped in a blanket. He Jumped onto and over the rail of the pourch, as she put Dakota in the back seat, but the chair he was tied to banged against the rail of the pourch, so he couldn't go anyfarther. He Yelled, Howled, Growled, and Barked. Then the Car drove away. "OH NO AGAHHHH." He screamed as he choked on his own spit.

Fainaly he thought about what Zuko said, and lied his head down. He felt cold, evil, and limp. He sighed as he waited......waited for the car to drive back up into the drive way. Waited for Dakota to step out and smile.Waited......

Two hours or so later, the car drove back up the driveway. He was expecting to see Dakota step out, carring a pup, but to his surprise, her owner had her, again wrapped up in  a blanket, carring her inside. She was sleeping, well apeared to be sleeping or awake but tierd. He looked around the carfor pups, but diddn't see any. He lied his head back down for a while, thinking what could have happend. When Dakota walked outside. "Da- DAKOTA! What happend?" He asked. " I was never goinng to have pups, as it turns out, I had a tumor on my stomach, witch grew and grew. I had surgery today and got it removed....I was asleep during the whole thing, and was still tierd after all of it." She said.

"Oh my......so....so your okay right?"Torn asked.Dakota replied "Yeah...I'm Okay..."
