"I dare not attempt to cheer for fear of having a bottle being thrown at my head." Zero said, grinning.

Charlie lept off the stage, he was being showered with boos. "I wasn't that ba..." before he could finish his comment a bottle came flying threw the air and struck him on his head knocking him out cold. He collapsed on the ground and lay motionless.

Itchy rushes over to see what just happened. He was appalled to see that somebody would throw a glass bottle because he wasn't a good singer, "Charlie you alright?" Itchy questioned with concern in his voice.

Zero had seen the dog who threw it and went over just as he did it, fighting his way through the crowd and punching the dog in the face, knocking him to the ground before going to Charlie. "I think he's out cold..."

Mishka chuckled a little bit to herself, Charlie knowing German?It was almost unbelivable, but of course it could be true, Charlie had been alot of places and he was a German Shepherd.

Nika sat down on the wood flooring ad sighed heavily, teh lonliness of the house ating ehr at her edges.

While Zero wasn't paying attention, one of the dogs he punched friends came and hit him on the back with a stool, Zero getting stunned for a second before turning and punching that dog also, knocking him into a group of other dogs. "Itch, I think it's time we get out of here. I think there is gonna be a brawl." He yelled over the noise as, just as he said it, a brawl started. The group the other dog hit when Zero punched him had started fighting amongst themselves thinking one or the other hit them, which caused them to hit more dogs, which started a bigger and bigger fight.

Charlie lay there motionless, the only thing that was moving was his chest going up and down with every breath and the drool dripping off of his tounge.

Itchy steals a cup of cold water and splashes it on Charlie's face, "Wake up, c'mon wake up." He shook Charlie a bit.

Zero grabbed Itchy and Charlie, ducking as a bottle flew overhead and dragged both of them out. Zero got hit a few times to reach the exit, but he got them out and brought the other two home. "That was hectic..." Zero said, swaying on his paws with a black eye and injured right front paw.

Charlie finally snapped out of his trance. "What happened?" he feels a bump on his head.

"You were hit in the head with a bottle." Itchy replied.

At the sound of those words Charlie yanked free from the grasp of Zero and joined in on the fight. A left hook here and a right hook there Charie was wooping some doggy butt. Then he got punched square in the nose and he fell over screaming in pain. He lifted his paw up to realize he was gushing blood from his nose, "Ahhhh" screamed Charlie freaked out by the amount of blood that was spewing from his nose.

Zero shook his head and went back in the Fleabite, punching dogs left, right, and center. He got to Charlie. "Couldn't resist a brawl could you Charlie?" He asked, spitting out some blood from his bitten tongue on the floor and going back at it, grabbing a stool and smashing it against another dogs head before he could get punched.

Out of know where somebody cheap shots Charlie and hits him over the back with a stool. He howled in pain. Charlie got up still bleeding from his nose and with a bad back marches over to the dog that through the chair over his back and spat at him and walked away. Charlie was in a lot of pain his back was killing him.

Zero went over, grabbed the stool-hitting-dogs chest fur, punched his face a few times then threw him into the crowd. He could see Mishka every now and then through the melee, so he waved his farewell and followed Charlie out back to the apartment. He was limping a lot worse now, and both his eyes were blackened.

"Sorry Itch... After I saw the dog who threw the bottle at Charlie I couldn't help myself. I don't like people hurting my friends is all..." Zero said, hardly able to see through his eyes. "I hope you can forgive my stupid behavior?"

"I forgive you" Itchy patted Zero on the back. "But Charlie on the other hand," he stared at Charlie and that is all that needed to be said.

"I... I... I... think my nose is broken," he was in excrutiating pain.
