The Bolt Crew: The Shrinking Violet!
It was Valentine’s Day. Caroline wanted to give something special to Bolt, since he was her favorite dog. But what? Chocolates weren’t a good idea, since chocolate is poisonous for dogs.
“That’s it!” Caroline said. “I’ll give him some flowers! After all, flowers are the most common gift on this special day.”
She left her house and headed to the flower shop. When she arrived, she wondered which kind of flowers would Bolt like.
“I know! Violets! They are so pretty! Plus, I love their purple color! I’m sure Bolt will love them too.”
Thus, Caroline grabbed a few violets without being noticed and made a bouquet for Bolt with them! However, she made sure not to smell them herself, since she was a bit allergic. Eager to give Bolt his Valentine’s Day gift, she headed to his home, skipping and humming along the way. Meanwhile, at the backyard of his home, Bolt was busy burying a bone Penny had given him from the previous day’s dinner leftovers, when suddenly, he heard Caroline calling him from the other side of the fence.
“Bolt! I have a surprise for you!”
“Hi, Caroline! Really? I love surprises! I’m coming.”
With a superjump, Bolt got to the other side of the fence.
“Whoa!” Caroline said. “Be careful, Bolt!”
“Sorry. Well, what is it?”
“Ta-daa!” Caroline said, showing him the bouquet of violets. “Happy Valentine’s Day!”
“Wow, thank you, Caroline! I love their purple color!”
“I knew you would!”
“Sorry I haven’t got something for you.”
“Doesn’t matter, Bolt! Having your friendship is the best thing I could ever have!”
Caroline gave Bolt a big hug, then left for her home, humming and skipping happily. Bolt returned to the backyard, entered his doghouse and admired the bouquet of violets Caroline had given him.
“Such beautiful flowers!” Bolt said.
He smelled them. They had such a good scent! Afterward, he decided to take a nap. When he woke up, he noticed something strange. The floor of his doghouse looked different. Then he looked around. The ceiling and walls were way higher than usual. Now it looked like he lived in a mansion! Not that it was bad, but it was weird. How did that come to happen? Did Penny move him to a giant doghouse while he was asleep? Not very likely. Bolt went out of his now enormous doghouse… and found what seemed to be very tall grass! The grass was almost as tall as trees. Now he understood. His doghouse didn’t grow. He had shrunken! But how? Bolt was very confused. He decided to call upon his friends.
“Hope I didn’t lose my powers with this…” Bolt said.
He got into position, growled and let out a minimized version of his superbark. Instead of having the power of a hurricane, it was like a sound wave. But his mini superbark sounded like a normal bark, loud enough for his friends to hear him. Gerald, Dustin, Shawn, Poppy and Caroline arrived to the backyard and looked for Bolt. However, they weren’t aware that they nearly stepped on him! Swiftly, Bolt avoided their gigantic paws, reached the top of his doghouse with a mini superjump and called out to his friends.
“Hey, over here!”
“Bolt!?” Shawn said. “Is that you!?”
“Yes, it’s me!”
“How did you become so teensy weensy?” Poppy asked.
“I have no idea!”
“What’s the last thing you remember before shrinking?” Gerald asked him.
“Well, I was burying a bone here, then Caroline arrived and gave me a bouquet of violets as a Valentine’s Day gift. After she left, I entered my doghouse and sniffed them. Then I fell asleep. When I woke up, everything around me was enormous! It was then I realized I had shrunk!”
“Wait, you shrunk after sniffing some violets?” Dustin said. “It’s like the expression: shrinking violet!”
“Oh, no!” Caroline said. “This is all my fault! I shouldn’t have given Bolt those flowers.”
“Don’t worry, Carol.” Bolt said. “I know you didn’t mean to do it."
“Who would create flowers that are able to shrink dogs, anyway?” Gerald asked.
“Perhaps it’s a new villain!” Shawn said.
“Let’s check the TV, guys!” Poppy said. “Hopefully the news about this villain show up.”
“You go, guys.” Bolt said. “I don’t want to risk being seen as tiny dog by Penny’s mom.”
“Okay, Bolt.” Dustin said. “We’ll let you know when we learn something.”
“I’m sorry, Bolt…” Caroline whispered, saddened.
Bolt’s friends returned to their homes to watch the news and see if they could find out who the villain was.
Eventually, some reports appeared on the news channel. It appeared that not only Bolt was affected by a strange flower. Lots of people were being hurt by either boxing blossoms, spiky roses and even snapping Venus flytraps! Afterward, Bolt’s friends returned to him to tell him the news.
“Bolt, I think we know what the villain is up to!” Poppy said.
“It seems like, whoever the villain is, has created strange mutant plants that are attacking other people. Not just you!” Dustin said.
“But who would be able to do that?” Shawn said.
“I guess if we find the truck that supplies the flower shop, we should eventually come across that villain!” Gerald said.
“Great idea, Gerald!” Bolt said. “Bolt Crew, let’s head to the flower shop!”
The six dog friends went quickly to the flower shop, and soon as they arrived, they saw lots of citizens being attacked by mutant plants!
“Aw, yeah!” Gerald said. “Time to fry some monster plants!”
“You’re gonna pay for what you did to Bolty!” Caroline said.
“As man’s best friend… our city we’ll defend!”
The Bolt Crew bravely fought the mutant plants while the flower shop customers ran away. Caroline took flight and flapped her ears to blow the mutant plants away with tornadoes. Gerald burned them to crisp with his fire powers. Shawn charged into some mutant plants, throwing them to Dustin, who stretched his body into a huge slingshot and sent them flying through the air. Poppy trapped some mutant plants in a giant unbreakable bubble and rolled it against more of them. Bolt’s powers were notably and literally minimized, due to him being tiny now. However, his laser vision and sonic bark were still powerful enough to damage the enemy plants.
After all monster plants were eliminated, they saw the supply truck arriving to the flower shop. However, when the driver saw the destroyed plants, he quickly retreated. Bolt and his friends chased it through the streets. Then, Bolt had an idea:
“Hey, Carol! Wanna take me for a ride?”
“Anything for you, Bolt!”
“Ok, let’s find out who’s behind this. Guys, keep chasing the truck!”
“You got it, Bolt!” Gerald said.
“Leave it to us, darling!” Poppy said.
“This truck ain’t going nowhere! Not on our guard.” Shawn said.
“Go unmask this villain, guys!” Dustin said.
Caroline held Bolt in her paws and flew next to the truck. Luckily for them, the window was a bit open.
“Caroline, throw me inside!”
“Um… ok. Please take care!”
She threw her tiny friend through the window and into the cab. Bolt looked at the driver. He seemed like no villain, but like a normal driver. However, he noticed he had a weird mushroom behind his neck!
“Oh, no!” Bolt said. “That mushroom must be mind-controlling him!”
He was about to take it off with his laser vision, but he remembered the driver had to take them to where the mutant plants were being created. Instead, he went unnoticed to the back of the van and used his heat vision (which still worked normally) to destroy the lock and open the doors of the van.
“Hey, get in!” he called his friends.
“Way to go!” Dustin said.
“That’s our tiny leader!” Poppy said.
Caroline, Gerald, Shawn, Poppy and Dustin jumped into the back of the truck.
“Now, onto the villain’s hideout!” Bolt said.
“Relax and enjoy the trip.” Shawn said.
“And remember to stay quiet.” Dustin said.
After a while, the truck arrived to some building. Bolt and his friends got out the truck. As the driver got out the vehicle, Bolt used his laser vision to destroy the mind controlling mushroom. Once he was free, the driver left, unable to remember what happened earlier. Without further ado, the Bolt Crew entered the building, ready to face off the enemy. Inside, they found lots of glass domes containing plants in mutation process.
“So this is where the mutant plants come from!” Caroline said.
“Who in the world would be capable of creating such monstrosities?” Poppy asked.
Then, they found a desk with some blueprints on it. They found out what was the purpose behind the creation of the mutant plants: to eliminate all citizens responsible of deforestation!
Suddenly, a woman wearing a dress covered with flowers appeared before them!
“Well, lookee here!” the woman said. “I didn’t expect to see puppies running around in my laboratory! Oh, but not just any puppies. They’re the Bolt Crew!”
“Wow, she knows about us?” Gerald asked.
“Nice to finally meet you! My name is Machiavellia Magnolia, and I am the scientist who created these intelligent plants with special abilities to defend themselves! Don’t even think about trying to foil my plans, because if it is so, you will have to face my babies!”
Machiavellia commanded his plant minions to attack Bolt and his friends.
“Bolt Crew, let’s kick it!” Bolt said.
The six dog friends used their superpowers to take on the mutant plants. Bolt was highly vulnerable sue to his small size, but his friends did their best to defend him. Then, Caroline went directly toward Machiavellia.
“You shrunk poor Bolt!” she said to her, angrily. “Now you’ll see what happens to whoever hurts my friend!”
Machiavellia threw toxic seeds at her, but Caroline flew and evaded them. Then, she began to attack her ruthlessly by flapping her long ears at her and kicking her.
“Quick! Let’s find a cure for Bolt!” Dustin said.
Bolt, Shawn, Dustin, Gerald and Poppy searched everywhere for some plant that could return Bolt to his normal size, while fighting the monster plants. Suddenly, Poppy found some magnifying mangoes.
“Look, this could work!” she said.
Poppy ran up to Bolt.
“Bolt, eat this!”
She approached Bolt a slice of magnifying mango, to which he gave a tiny bite. Then, Bolt grew to his normal size!
“Thank you, guys!” Bolt said. “Hey, where’s Carol?”
They turned to look at Caroline confronting Machiavellia Magnolia. The evil scientist grew mutant vines out of her dress and trapped Caroline! Then, just before the villainess could poison her with a grape, Bolt sliced the vines with his laser vision, freeing Caroline.
“Leave her alone!” Bolt said.
Bolt, Shawn, Poppy, Gerald and Dustin joined Caroline in fighting Machiavellia Magnolia. She used all of her plant-based arsenal, but the six canine heroes combined their elemental powers and defeated her! Luckily, the truck’s driver went to call the police once he was free of the mind-controlling mushroom. They came and arrested the villainess.
“Are you ok, Caroline?” Gerald asked.
“Yes, I’m fine.”
“What were you thinking?” Bolt asked. “Fighting that evil woman all by yourself?”
“I’m sorry! It’s just I was so angry that she shrunk you, and I felt guilty…”
“It wasn’t your fault, Carol!” Shawn said.
“Just remember, darling.” Poppy said. “Next time you fight a villain, wait for us!”
“That’s why we’re a team.” Dustin said.
“Anyway, thanks for helping me, Carol. Thanks to all of you… my friends.”
The six dog friends did a group hug. Then, they headed home to greet their owners from school. That night, in prison, Machiavellia Magnolia was locked in a cell, when she received an unexpected guest… Dr. Calico!
“I suppose you’re Machiavellia Magnolia.” Calico said.
“Who are you?”
“Dr. Heinrich Von Calico at your service. I’ve heard you fought a team of dogs with elemental superpowers and lost.”
“How dare you remind me of my failure?!” Machiavellia shouted, hitting the cell’s door.
“Chill out. Maybe it’s just your plant-based weapons weren’t powerful enough to defeat them.”
“What are you talking about?”
“As you see, I’m assembling a team to fight the Bolt Crew, and I thought you would be interested in joining in. I’ve helped a recent recruit by giving him improved explosive packages. I can give you more powerful plants. What do you say?”
Machiavellia laughed sinisterly, then Calico laughed, too. This was the beginning of a new threat for the Bolt Crew…
