1Chase and Marshall could not shake the feeling that they were being followed. Missions came and were completed over the course of the week, and Marshall's paw healed itself. Everything seemed to go

back to normal… until the day came. It was a bright sunny day, and surprisingly enough, there were no missions that day. Chase and Marshall had decided to go to the park for the day. As they walked

towards the park, chase started a discussion with Marshall.

Discussion Between Chase And Marshall:

Chase: Marshall, have you noticed anything strange?

Marshall: Yah. Just this morning I was walking around and I swear i could hear breathing next to me.

Chase: I've been noticing the same thing.

Marshall: And some times I'm walking along and I see bushed rustle around.

Chase: Hmm. Do you think someone has been following us?

Marshall: I don't know, but what i do know is that i want to go to the park!

Chase: Me too! Lets go!

End Of Discussion

They arrived at the park soon after, and chose to forget the idea of someone following them around. After a couple hours of playing both of them were drenched in pools of sweat. They sat down to take

a rest, but as they sat down, a rustle in the leaves was heard and a pup stepped out of the bushes.

Flashback

Chase and Marshall had just been adopted by Ryder, and were being taken to the pup park to play with the other dogs. A dog had approached them. He was a humungous wolf mix. Everyday he bullied

Chase and Marshall. He scratched them, kicked them, and jumped on them. One day things got out of hand. I arrived at the dog park that day hoping things would go well. Boy was I wrong. Once again

the dog named Maximum walked up to me and Marshall and started bullying us. Marshall decided to stand up for himself. "Why are you picking on us!" Marshall screamed. "Because your runts." he said

back. Marshall ran up to him, and bit his leg. This was a big mistake. The dog threw Marshall off of him. I ran in to help Marshall fight the dog, but he could still defeat us. Finally he caught me, and then a

intense fire exploded in my chest as i blacked out. Ryder had seen what had happened and ran over to me. Maximum had left, but still I was hurt badly. Ryder picked me up in his arm and carried me

back to the lookout. There, Katy treated my wounds. I had broken 6 ribs and one paw. Marshall had only broken a leg. When I woke up, I was in my bed. We had never seen Maximum again since then.

End Of Flashback

"Maximus" Marshall and I said. He laughed a dark and evil laugh. "You said I'd never make it out of the pound. You said I'd never exact my revenge on you. Well you were wrong. I'll show the whole world

how wrong they were to shut me out." He lunged forward. Marshall jumped out of the way, but I wasn't so lucky. He was aiming for me. His teeth sank into my leg and I could feel the slow trickle of blood

flow down my leg. Next he dove at Marshall. I dove in front of him causing myself to take a good beating to the chest. "Chase!" Marshall rushed to my aid as I got back up. Maximus lunged at me, trying to

finish me off. His teeth dove into my arm and chest. Searing pain shot through my body. Barely able to stay conscious, I heard the voice of Ryder. I saw Maximus flee. The last thing I remember before I

blacked out, was Ryder picking me and Marshall up, and taking us home. When I woke up, I instantly felt waves of pain go through me. I screamed and thrashed around, but Ryder's hands held me

down. "Shhh Chase. Its Ryder". That soothed the pain enough that it was bearable. I was laying down in Katy's Clinic, Marshal was sitting in the chair next to the table I was sitting on. "Hi Chase!" he said,

with his usual grin painting his face. I tried to talk but couldn't get anything out. "Marshall, how did this happen?" "Well, Chase and I were at the pup park taking a break, when the old dog from the pup

park came out of a bush and attacked us. He bit Chase, and then lunged for me. He would have killed me, because he lunged at my head, but Chase jumped in front of him and took a beating. And that's

when you arrived. "I wonder how he escaped from the pound after what he did. I would think they would keep him under tight surveilance." Finally I could get something out of my mouth. "Ryder, how long

untill I can walk again?" Katie replied instead "You can start walking around in a week, or I can give you crutches today. "I'll take the crutches" I said. In about an hour, I had learned how to walk with the

crutches. The second I got back to the lookout, the other pups crowded me. "Were gonna get that dog!" said Rocky. "Hell be sorry!" Zuma said. "He'll go back to the pound!" Skye shouted. "Im hungry."

came Rubbles voice from behind everyone. They all laughed. "I think It's time you pups eat and get to bed" Ryder said. After they had all gotten into bed, two pups remained awake. Marshall and Chase.

"Marshall walked over to Chase's dog house.

Discussion Between Marshall And Chase

Marshall: Were gonna get that guy!

Chase: I know. And it looks like the other pups are gonna help us out!

Marshall: Yah, it's nice to know they're there for us.

Chase: Yah you're right.

Marshall: Thanks for saving me back at the park.

Chase: No problem.

Marshall: See you in the morning.

Chase: You to.

End Of Discussion

The next morning Ryder called all the pups up to the lookout. "Pups! We have a very important mission today. We need to track down the dog that attacked Chase and Marshall, and get him to the pound.

Rock and Skye, you two search the beach. "Green means go!" "Let's take to the sky!" Rubble, Zuma, and I will search the forest. "Rubble on the double!" "Let's dive in!" Chase and Marshall, you two

search the city. "Chase is on the case!" "Im fired up!" Marshall and I headed over to the city to look for Maximus.
