Rover (TLKOE) and Dash Parr

Dash sped through the forest that surrounded his family's new house. It was the only place he could run for a long time without people discovering he had powers. He stopped dead in his tracks when he noticed a large footprint.

Curious, he bent down and stared at it. The pawprint matched that of a dog, but it looked bigger than a bear. The speedster was then alerted as he heard a twig snap and turned to see a blue monster heading toward him.

"See ya, ugly!" Dash taunted as he speeded away. Dash chuckled mischievously he wasn't worried; he was the fastest thing alive-

Dash suddenly hit a wall of blue fur and looked up into the face of the panting blue monster who stared down at him with his tongue hanging to the side. Dash's jaw dropped at this. How the heck did this thing get ahead of him?! He then noticed something in the neck of the monster's fur and found that it was a nametag that said, 'Rover'.

"Rover?" Dash asked out loud. In response, Rover let out a loud bark. This made Dash jump and speed off, Rover hurried after him. The boy and beast became blurs as they ran through the forest with super speed. Their chase ended with Rover jumped over the running Dash and turned while in the air facing the blond as he landed, making the ground shake. Dash tried to skid to a stop but his feet dragged across the ground; he soon came to a stop in front of Rover's snout. Dash winced in disgust as he smelled Rover's bad breath.

SLUUURRP!

Rover smacked his tongue across Dash's cheek and dragging it upward, forcing the boy to shut one eye as his other widened in shock. He was lifted off the ground and into the air. Rover's tongue flicked off and Dash dropped on to his bottom with a confused look and a slobber-coated cheek.

"Ew, yuck!" Dash complained, as he wiped the sticky drool off.

Rover barked and stood on his hindlegs with his front paws in the air and his tongue hanging out drooling sloppily. The monster now just looked silly to the preteen who couldn't help but giggle.

"Well, at least your friendly." Dash said with a smile. Rover let out a deep bark and tackled the speedster to his back. Dash was surprised when the monster leaped at him and reacted with disgust as his face was soaked by the excited beast.

"Hey, come on, man! Get off!" The blonde laughed as his cheek was rolled up several times by Rover's rough tongue, he was forced to shut one eye in the process. Dash tried to move his face but Rover seemed dead set on licking every inch of the blonde's face.

"ROVER, STOOOOP!" Dash groaned, feeling himself losing consciousness.

Rover did stop but not before giving the boy's freckled face one final, extra-sloppy lick from his chin all the way up to his forehead. Once the tongue flicked off, Rover looked down at his playmate with adoration. Dash's face was completely soaked and his hair stuck up in the front.

"Yuck!" Dash said, with a hint a laughter in his voice. Rover barked and got off the preteen. Dash immediately rolled on to his stomach and stood up, wiping his face with his shirt. The sticky globs of saliva were hard to get off but he eventually succeeded. He also fixed his hair.

He then looked around for the blue monster, but he was gone. Dash couldn't help but feel disappointed. He always wanted a dog, especially a big, slobbery one that could soak Violet. He had begged his parents for one, just a small one, but they'd said no.

Rover had seemed to like him, he hoped he didn't hurt the monster's feelings by calling him ugly. In an instant, Rover ran right in front of Dash. This caused Dash to jump in surprise. Dash was reminded how big this dog was. It looked like it could use Dash as a chew toy.

Dash saw that Rover had a branch in his jaw and his tail was wagging. The branch dropped to the ground at Dash's feet. The blonde looked down at the saliva covered branch and looked up to Rover, who barked at him and dropped into a crouching position with his front paws extended and his back in the air while wagging his tail at a fast pace.

"Wanna play fetch?" Dash asked.

Rover barked happily; his tail wagged even harder.

Dash grinned and picked up the branch, wincing as it was covered in saliva.

"Okay, go get it!" Dash yelled, chucking it as hard as he could. Rover sped after it, allowing Dash to see how fast Rover was because in no time, Rover brought it back and dropped it at Dash's feet.

Dash threw it again and Rover dashed off after it and brought it back again. They did this several times, neither getting tired of their game. Dash soon threw the branch higher and Rover leaped up to catch it in his mighty jaws,

When he brought it back, Dash stood on his tippy toes and started scratching the sides of Rover's neck.

The monster dog leaned in, nearly knocking Dash over.

The blond speedster began to think about what to do with his new friend. He couldn't bring him home as his parents had forbid him from having a dog, so he knew that they especially wouldn't approve of a monster one. He would have to hide Rover in his secret hideout, which was a cave. He could bring him toys, dog food and play with him but he'd need to keep it a secret. The cave was far away enough that his family didn't know about it and it was big enough to be comfortable for Rover.

Dash jumped when he felt the ground shake, only to calm down when he realized that it was just Rover rolling onto his back, exposing his tummy. Dash giggled and proceeded to rub Rover's belly with both hands.

Having a monster dog was going to be so cool.
