Well this fic has had a long history. It stared a few days ago when I wanted to continue this trend I started with my recent Blue's Clues fic and wanted to make more fics of kids shows I used to/still love. And so, I decided to do PAW Patrol; while I did love the series, I kinda moved past it for some reason and came back to it about a week ago. I was quite surprised to see new members Tracker and Everest (yes I am that late), and then discovered the Mission PAW sub-series of episodes that have this Sweetie character as the antagonist - though I am aware she is generally despised by the community, I have grown to like her in both appearance and character. Hence where this fic comes in.
Anyway, this fic has gone through several revisions. The first was a plot about the PAW Patrol pups taking a vacation and getting into cartoon hijinxs, but kinda dropped the idea. The next attempt was a romance fic involving Chase and Skye, though it almost instantly fell on its face. As such, I figured I should take a more plot and adventure-based fic; and so we have Mission PAW: Pups Save the World, where the pups make an alliance with Sweetie, putting their differences aside to stopping a greater evil. So be sure to like, favorite, and review.
Our story begins on Barkingburg, a kingdom far from Adventure Bay. This was a place all too familiar - the well-renowned and well-trained group of rescuers, the PAW Patrol, visited this place commonly. Barkingburg was home to some of the most serious, dangerous missions the group had ever tackled. They had to rescue the royal crown, thwart ghosts, and even save the royal throne, and it was all thanks to the kingdom's signature villain puppy Sweetie. She was responsible for all three of these crimes, and all three times was thwarted by the PAW Patrol, much to her anger. She'd often plot how to get revenge on the puppies or steal the royal throne for herself in her spare time, and was definitely a force to be reckoned with.
But Sweetie wasn't the only villain in this kingdom. No siree.
Below the streets and buildings of Barkingburg laid a secret underground base, uncovered by anyone. It was ingenious to build a lair this deep underground, it was too deep to dig into and too elusive for anyone to find. In this bunker were three rather large cats.
"How's the preparation going?" The large, gray cat, Dr. Klaw, asked.
"It'ssss going rather well Klaw," one of the other two cats, a very slim yellow one named Scratch, answered. "Operation sssshould be ready for launch within the hour."
"GUUUH!" the rather plump orange one, Gorge, suddenly said.
"Excellent," Dr. Klaw replied. "And I trust you two know the plan?"
"Of coursssse ssssire," Scratch said. "We usssse the toxxxxin to grow the sssseedssss in our ccccellar. They will then grow through the ground and take over Barkingburg. Thesssse plantssss then sssspread acrossss the resssst of the world, and then we take over the planet."
"Excellent," Klaw repeated. "Soon this world will know the true genius of Dr. Klaw!" Just then, he grabbed a shovel with a face drawn on it from the nearby table.
"Isn't that right, Sally?" Klaw said in a romantic voice. "You and I will rule, as king and queen!"
"GUH GUH!" Gorge bellowed from behind.
"Will you shut up!?" Klaw ordered. "I'm TALKING to my fiancee."
Scratch and Gorge exchanged odd looks at each other. "Sssso ssssire, give ussss the ssssignal and thesssse plantssss will grow like the beansssstalkssss that appear after you hit thosssse quesssstion mark blockssss with your head that take you to the cloudssss above."
Klaw gave Scratch a glare. "Have you been playing Super Pup Bros.? I thought I told you to stop playing that and play Fireball the Cat instead. You know we hate dogs!"
Scratch reeled back. "My misssstake."
Klaw just rolled his eyes. "Oh never mind. Anyways, gentlemen, in a few short hours, we will conquer this world!" He then began laughing like a maniac, with Scratch and Gorge laughing with him.
"Alright Gorge," Scratch said. "Pressss the button!"
Gorge did as was told, which activated the special toxins the cats made. They spread through a pipe into a nearby cellar in the base, affecting some weeds that were planted. The toxins started taking effect on the plants shortly after, causing them to grow pretty quick. The cats watched the magic unfold from the screen in the bunker; their plan was coming to fruition. In an hour or two, Barkingburg would become a giant garden thanks to these weeds, and after that they would release the toxins worldwide to turn the whole world into one large, weedy field. The cats would then take over, and their rules would become law. No longer would humans reign supreme. Dr. Claw would finally conquer the planet, and absolutely nothing could stop him.
"OOF!" came a rather sudden yelp.
"Maybe I should be on bottom," a Chocolate Labrador suggested.
"No no, I got it," a Dalmation reassured.
"C'mon guys, hold still!" a Cockapoo commanded.
"Hey, get your paw out of my face!" a mixed breed shouted.
"Sorry," an English Bulldog replied.
"I'm losing my balance, amigos," a Chihuahua complained.
"Are you almost there?" a Husky asked.
"Yeah, almost," a German Shepherd answered. "Just a little to the left."
These pups were on a rescue mission. Well, not really a "mission" per say. More like an attempt at getting a baby bird back to its mothers nest. They were the PAW Patrol after all - it was second nature to help anyone in need. Though these pups were considering rethinking their plan; they decided to stack on top of each other to try and get the baby bird back to its nest. It may not have been the most efficient idea, but it was certainly an adorable sight to behold.
On the bottom was Marshall, the team's medic. He was known for his infamous mess-ups, accidents, and especially slips and falls, all things he must endure as accident prone. Regardless, he has proved himself time and time again to be a valued team member. On top of Marshall was Zuma, who was trained to handle missions out in the water thanks to his special gear. Though this Chocolate Labrador's laid-back demeanor may not make him seem like a good rescuer, the speed he can go from slacker to soldier certainly does. Above him was mixed breed Rocky, who was the team's eco-friendly member. Though his talent for recycling is not useful on many missions, he more than makes up for it with his useful tools such as screwdrivers and his signature ultra-hand. Rubble, who was standing above Rocky, was the youngest of the group, but his construction skills make him just as helpful as the rest of the team. He's always willing to help those in need, as well as his pup pals by "making their leftovers disappear".
Whereas Rubble was the youngest of the group, Everest was the eldest... but was somehow a little smaller than the English Bulldog. She became one of the new members of the PAW Patrol thanks to saving her now-caretaker Jake in the North Pole, and her skills with plowing snow and ice proved to be more than helpful on missions. Tracker was the newest member of the group, and was promoted to PAW Patrol member about two weeks prior after rescuing Carlos from a hole in the ground. His skills in the jungle were quite helpful on several occasions. Standing on top of Tracker was Skye, a Cockapoo and used to be the only girl in the group before Everest joined the gang. She had special gear such as wings equipped to be able to handle missions in the sky that were out of the other pups' reach. Finally, the pup at the top was Chase; being the first pup and founder of the PAW Patrol, he was the leader of this all-variety team. Though all-business during missions, Chase still did let loose and have fun when off work.
"Hold still Marshall," Rocky ordered.
"I'm trying," the Dalmatian replied. "But it's kinda hard balancing nine pups on my back at once."
"Vamanos mis amigos!" Tracker said, his native tongue slipping in. "I can't hold much longer!"
"How do you think I feel?" Zuma asked.
"Almost... there..." Chase muttered as he reached for the nest. He managed to reach the branch, allowing the baby bird to climb on and return to its mother. They chirped in thankfulness.
"No need for thanks," Chase told the birds. "Whenever you're in trouble, just yelp for help!"
"OK so... how do we get down?" Skye asked.
"Guys I'm gonna... I'm gonna..." Marshall tried to warn the others, but was interrupted by his tickling nose.
"Ah-CHOO!"
And with that, all the pups fell into one large puppy pile. They couldn't help but laugh at the situation they had gotten themselves into.
"Thinking it over," Chase said. "We could have saved ourselves a LOT more trouble by having Skye get her wings and fly the baby bird back to the nest."
"Well that wouldn't be nearly as fun," Skye retorted.
"She's right," Zuma added. The pups then laughed some more.
From inside the lookout stood Ryder, a young boy who was the head honcho and commander of the PAW Patrol. He trained the pups in their special talents himself in the hope that he could help rid Adventure Bay of its troubles, and from putting a bird back in its nest to saving the royal throne of Barkingburg, the team have proven themselves successful. Ryder had been watching the pups and their "rescue mission", and couldn't help but smile at the adorably cute sight. Just then, his Pup-Pad rang - it was Jake.
"Hello Jake," Ryder greeted.
"What's up dude," Jake greeted back. "It's great out here in the jungle."
"Really?" Ryder replied. "How are you and Carlos doing."
"We're doing fine," Carlos said. "This hike has been pretty exciting. We've had to fight bears, outrun snakes, hunt for worms under rocks-"
"Uhh, dude, we didn't do any of that-" Jake interrupted before being shushed by Carlos. Ryder couldn't help but chuckle.
"Anyways, thank you for letting Everest and Tracker stay at the Lookout while we were away for the week," Jake continued.
"No problem," Ryder replied. "They're members of the PAW Patrol, so they're welcome to the Lookout at any time."
"How are they doing?" Carlos asked.
"Everest and Tracker have made themselves right at home," Ryder explained. "We didn't have doghouses for them, but me and Rubble made some placeholders for the time being. If they visit again soon, we'll have their own doghouses ready."
"Gnarly, dude," Jake said. "Well, we oughta get back to this hike. See ya later Ryder."
"See you soon," Ryder waved as he closed the call on his Pup-Pad. Just as he was about to put it away, he got another call, this time from Barkingburg. Quick to reply, he pressed the button on his Pup-Pad, with the kingdom's princess calling.
"Oh, your majesty," Ryder greeted. "What's wrong?"
"Ryder," the princess began. "I have no idea what is going on, but Barkingburg is in some serious trouble." She turned the screen to the town outside the castle, revealing the town to be under mass panic. Large, green weeds were growing everywhere, destroying pavement and smashing their way through walls.
"Ryder, we need the PAW Patrol," the princess continued. "If they cannot solve this weedy situation, Barkingburg shall be destroyed!"
"Don't fear, your majesty," Ryder began. "No job is too big, no pup is too small!" He then pressed a button on his Pup-Pad, sending a message to the PAW Patrol.
"PAW Patrol! To the Air Patroller!" Ryder called through the Pup-Tags.
"Ryder needs us!" they called simultaneously. They managed to get to their feet and ran to the Air Patroller, conveniently parked by Robo-Dog. Marshall, as it was even a surprise anymore, accidentally tripped over a rock and flew past the other pups into the vehicle. "I'm OK," me said, regaining his footing. Once all eight pups were in the Air Patroller, they all too their places on the seats at the front of the vehicle. Though it was too short for Tracker and Everest to sit on as well, Ryder planned ahead and got the two blankets to sit on, with seat belts of course.
"PAW Patrol, ready for action, Ryder, sir!" Chase saluted as per usual.
"Jolly good, Pups," Ryder said. "We have a pretty big situation on our hands. It could be our most important mission yet." The boy then pushed a button on his Pup-Pad, showcasing an image of Barkingburg covered in green plants.
"Just a few hours ago, some strange, large plants began growing throughout Barkingburg," Ryder explained. "Our mission is to find out what caused it and put an end to it."
"So why is this our 'most important mission yet', siñor?" Tracker asked.
"Yeah," Rocky followed. "They're just plants. The worst that's gonna happen is that Barkingburg will become one giant flower garden." The other pups began nodding in agreement.
"Oh it gets much worse than that, pups," Ryder replied. "These plants are strong enough to break through sidewalks and smash through brick walls. If we don't find a way to stop this soon, Barkingburg could be destroyed!"
The other pups gasped. This was a LOT more serious than they thought.
"Well how are we gonna do this, dudes?" Zuma asked.
"Well this is our most important mission," Ryder said. "So a mission THIS important needs some important gear."
"Sounds like this is a," Chase began.
"Mission PAW!" Everyone finished.
"Robo-Dog, put us in stealth mode!" Ryder commanded.
Robo-Dog complied, as he pressed a button to turn the Air Patroller's normally bright and vibrant colors to those fitting for an attack copter. The vehicle was going to arrive in Barkingburg at any minute, where the pups would get their special gear and prepare for action. Chase kept his thoughts silent, as he was not one to blindly point fingers - he was a police dog after all - but he had a gut feeling that Sweetie, the pet of Barkingburg's princess, was behind all of this. Perhaps this was just another scheme of hers to claim the royal throne all to herself. Why she would want to destroy the kingdom in the process was anyone's guess, but he assumed this was just an oversight on Sweetie's part. The German Shepherd was about to bring this up until Ryder said that the Air Patroller was entering the secret bunker below Barkingburg.
Chase was gonna have to put his thoughts aside for the time being. Right now, it was showtime!
Well that should do it for this chapter. Seems as if Chase is assuming that good ol' Sweetie is up to no good again. I'll be trying to get these chapters out as quick as possible, so just stay patient. This story is only beginning!
Anyway be sure to favorite, share, and review, and till next chapter, see ya!
