"Cayyyylebbbb... innnnn..."

The little wolf pup looked at his friend for a moment, then trotted happily toward the truly huge door the rest of the family had passed through. He knew they were there, even the ones he hadn’t come with. He could smell them, after all.

And suddenly he could smell some other people, right out of the blue.

The little pup’s nose twitched and he looked back, his tail rising with happiness and surprise.

"Yip!" he called out, running towards the group that had just appeared on the front walk to the huge building.

He ran around all of them twice, then dashed back to his friend.

Munchee grinned toothily and waved quickly to the new arrivals, then crossed his arms and looked at Caleb hopefully. "Innn...?" He ignored the laughter coming from Toga and her immediate family while Caleb looked like he was thinking about the request, then headed for the door.

Caleb yipped excitedly as he and Munchee entered the enormous building. He wasn’t sure of exactly what was going on, but he knew it was a new place with new, fun people, new smells, and many other things he’d never experienced. It was becoming more so by the moment as more people arrived.

"Yip-yip-yipppp!" he barked insistently, his nose twitching as he followed the scent of family to the main ballroom.

He looked up from the floor, then barked even more excitedly and dashed across the room to his Alpha, jumping up and resting his little paws on Wolfe’s knee.

Wolfe grinned and leaned down, ruffling Caleb’s fur. "Hey there, little bud. Finally decided to join us, huh?"

Caleb panted happily, his tongue hanging out, then yipped one more time before dashing off to check out this new and exciting place.

Munchee peeked through the big, open door to the main ballroom, then swarmed back to the front door, peering out at the group who had appeared a few moments earlier.

"Innn...?" he said knowingly, his voice smirking just as much as his furry little blue face was. "In," he insisted with a twinkle in his eye before returning to the prior door. It was time for his entrance, after all.

He stood there outside the ballroom door for a moment, little clawed hands straightening and tugging at his outfit, making sure his flower was in place. "Hnnnngggggggg.... Muncheeee looking goooooooood." He grinned to himself, then gathered himself tightly and leaped into the open doorway, striking his pose. Grinning hugely, eyes slitted slightly to show how cool he was, he stood there waiting for the admiring ‘oooo-s’ and ‘ahhhhh-s’ he knew would be coming.

"Hrrrrmmm..." he said to himself, "Munchee hear nothing like he should..."

He opened his eyes fully and glanced around, then frowned a little. Everyone was absorbed in each other and the room. "Okayyyy..." he sighed before grinning hugely once again.

"HEH-HEMMMM!" He cleared his throat loudly, once again in his best ‘here I am, and aren’t you lucky’ pose.

One furry brow rose and lowered a few times slyly and he raised his little chin, trying to look as suave as he should in his little tuxedo complete with bow tie, cummerbund, pleated shirt and boutonniere. "Mmmmuncheeee... heeeeeere!"

He strutted forward, towards the small groups near the tables, completely assured in his appearance. "Parrrty... mmmmm. Ooooops!"

The look on his face was truly comical as he tripped and went ass over teakettle across the floor, finally rolling to a stop less than ten feet from the main table.

"Uhhhh... tah-dah!" he crowed, leaping to his feet and holding his arms up proudly, as if he’d meant to do just what he’d done by accident. "Parrrrrty...?"

He waggled his furry little brows playfully, then darted off towards Scarlet, sure he’d be able to beg a cookie from her. After he found somewhere to hide the little wingtip shoes that had made him trip, of course.

TBC...?
