Chapter 1: Marshall loses his voice
Our spotted friend was in his Pup House running in his sleep. Marshall was dreaming of playing with rabbits. He was in a field covered with daffodils not even in full bloom yet. He was running around trying to catch a rabbit he called "Fluffy". He would get closer and closer the rabbit, but Fluffy was fast. The little rabbit jumped down his hole with Marshall behind him. "Hey get back here!" said Marshall putting his head in the hole. Unknown to him there was another rabbit hole nearby. Fluffy jumped out of his hole and jumped on Marshalls butt. "Hey who did that?" said Marshall surprised. Fluffy just giggled.
Marshall woke up from his dream and he was thirsty. He walked out of his Pup House and it was barely dawn. All the other pups were still sleeping. Marshall walked to his water bowl inside the lookout. He took a couple of long droughts of water, gargled, and spit. Then the young pup yawned, but no sound came out. Terrified Marshall runs up stairs to Ryders room. Marshall runs through the door and tries to bark to wake up Ryder. Not a sound. So Marshall jumped up on Ryders bed waking up the young leader. "Marshall?" said Ryder rubbing the sleep from his eyes. Marshall whined. "Whats is it Marshall?" Ryder said finally sitting up in his bed. Marshall jumped off the bed and tried to speak but no sound. Marshall points at his mouth. He cant speak or bark. "Im taking you to Katies. Maybe she'll know what going on." said Ryder getting out of bed. Ryder walks over to his closet and gets dressed. "Ill leave the other pups a note so they wont get worried." said Ryder jotting down some words on paper.
"Come on Marshall lets go."
