Hey all~! I'm back! I took a bit of a break from writing so I could take care of somethings and have time to relax. Anyway, starting off with a small chapter, but hey at least we're getting this story started. So read, review and enjoy~!
It was a peaceful day outside the Lookout where the pups of PAW Patrol were relaxing in the late summer sun. Alaska smiled at she chatted with her friends and sister. However she couldn't help but notice something; One of her pals seemed off. The fire pup Spark wasn't as talkative as usual, though he still kept up with conversion.
Maybe Spark was just a tad tired today? Alaska tried to ignore the bubbling feeling that something wasn't right, but just couldn't. As Ocean was talking with Air and Shirley, Gravel rested his head on his paws and began to snooze away. Alaska smiled at Spark who smiled back in return, but said nothing. "Hey... Uh, Spark? Can we go talk for a second? Alone?" Alaska whispered, only so the fire dog could hear. Spark nodded and rose to his paws as Alaska then did the same. "Hey where are you two going?" Ocean asked, noticing the two pups getting ready to leave. "Oh! I just wanted to show Alaska some cool pictures of upcoming snow gear that's supposed to hit stores this winter," Spark replied. "Oh sounds cool! Well see ya two later!" Ocean responded, as she waved at her friends. With that, Ocean went back to chit chatting with Shirley and Air while Spark and Alaska walked off.
"Thanks for the cover story..." Alaska said. "No problem~! Though I must ask, why are you wanting them to not know you simply wanted to talk with me in private?" Spark asked. "B-Because I... I just... I get the feeling there's something wrong. You aren't as interactive today as you usually are! And I know I'm not there for every mission you deal with, so I thought maybe you're just tired from a rougher mission than usual? But something in my gut is telling me that's not it..." Alaska replied.
The orange and white collie sighed and sat down. He glanced at his paws and then looked at the Husky. "It's... It's... Well... It's better if you and the others, including Ryder don't know about this," Spark managed to choke out. "W-What?" Alaska asked, as she blinked at the Collie. "What is going on?"
"I-I can't tell you!" Spark barked back in response. At this, Alaska narrowed her eyes. "What can't you tell me? Did someone do something or... Or threaten you?" The Husky questioned.
"No! But this is a personal matter! I don't need nor do I want you or anyone else involved!" Spark suddenly snapped. He then released a growl and showed his teeth. Alaska backed up in shock and then sighed. "Okay you want to deal with this on your own? Fine. Go ahead. But we're all family here even though we're not blood related, and you should know when dealing with something you can always go to your family," Alaska said, as she walked off to join the others.
The fire pup took a few deep breaths to calm himself down before he went to join the other pups as well so that it would seem like nothing bad had happened.
