Chapter 3: Pups meets Lux

? POV

"Hey Jake, do you smell that." I ask my owner.

"I'm sorry Everest, I can't smell it. I don't have a good as nose as you." he replies, "That is one of the many reasons you my little helper." I stand there still trying to remember that smell. Then my eyes widen when I finally reconize the smell. The smell that reminds me of my worst memory ever. Blood!

"Jake we have to hurry! Someone is hurt!" I yell running out of the cabin with Jake on my tail.

I follow the stench of blood for about thirty minutes until I know its close.

"Jake, whoever is hurt is around here somewhere." I say to Jake but he is just staring off in the distance. "Jake what are you looking at." He points strait infront of us and faints. He normaly does that when he sees blood. I look where he was pointing and find the thing that made Jake faint. There was a dog about twenty feet ahead of us with a sword sticking through it. He isn't moving. I need to call Ryder. I press on my pup tag.

"Hello Ryder here." Ryder says.

"RYDER I NEED HELP! SOME PUP HAS A SERIOUS INJURY! PLEASE HURRY!" I'm basically screaming at this point.

"Everest, please calm down. No job is too big, no pup is too small.'' and with that Ryder hangs up. I see the pup try to stand up and then falls back down. I need to help. I run towards the pup. He gets up and trys to run away. You can clearly see the fear in his eyes.

"Please don't be afraid. I'm trying to help." I say trying to keep my nerve, but the sword sticking out is not really helping. He just looks at me and then falls back down. I run up to him and finally get a good look at him. He looks like a Bullmastiff pup with several cuts all over his body and the word Lux carved in his chest.

"Hey are you ok." I say trying to get to wake up. His eyes flutter open.

"I'm ok, but the sword is a little buggar." He smiles and then chuckles.

"How are you laughing right now." I stare in disbelief. How can he be happy right now.

"I know you're trying to help, and you look a little scared so I'm trying to make you smile." he says. I hear a engine heading this way.

" Don't you worry about a thing, help is here." I say sounding relieved.

"I was never worried in the first place. That was all you." he chuckles and then says, ''Whats you're name?"

"Everest." I reply.

"So Everest, should you go check out that man that passed out over there." he says and then passses out.

"Hey! Hey! Wake up!" I start to shake the pup, but it ended in failure. I look behind me and see Ryder pulling up.

"Ryder help!" I yell. Why does this have to happen all over again. Ryder runs up and then stops dead in his tracks. He looks horrified.

"Everest, how did this happen?'' he continues to stare at the pup.

"I don't know. All I know that he is still alive and I found him like this." I say not moving from his side. Marshell and Chase starts to walk up and stop beside Ryder.

"Where is the patient Ryder?" Marshell says. Then some words left Ryders mouth that I thought I would never here.

"Marshell I you can't save this one" Ryders says and then points towards the pup. They both looked to where Ryder was pointing. Chase starts to puke and Marshell starts to run towards the pup.

"Ryder, I don't know what to do! I have not have this happened before." marshell just stands there clueless on what to do.

"Lets take him to Katie, maybe she can do something." Ryder says picking the pup up.

"Ok Ryder." Marshell sighed clearly looks defeated.

They all jump in there vehicles and drive off leaving me just standing here. I hope that pup is alright. Hold up, I feel like I'm forgeting soemthing. ... JAKE!

Katie POV

"Ok Zuma, you're all done." I say to the PAW Patrols water rescue pup.

"Thanks Katie, that bath was great." Zuma says getting out off the bath.

"No problem Zuma, now where is Rocky." I say looking around for pup.

''It's ok Katie, I think I don't need a bath." Rocky said hiding behind the towel rack.

"Come on Rocky, the water is fine. I say splashing the water trying to encourage the water pup.

"KATIE! WE NEED YOUR HELP!" a voice yell from behind me.

"Thank you Marshell for your great timing." Rocky sighs in relieve.

"Ok, Marshell whats the problem." I turn around and see a grusome sight. A pup that has cuts all over him and a sword sticking strait through. "Ryder what happened?!" I said starting to fell a little dizzy.

"I don't know. Everest found him like this." Ryder said, " Can you heal him."

"I'll try but no promises." I say.

"Oh come on, it can't be that bad." Rocky said jumping on the table beside the pup. His eyes grew the size of baseballs and then faints. I take the pup from Ryder and take him to the backroom. I hook him up to a heart monitor and some IV's. His heart rate is slow. I bandage all the cuts up and then just stare at the sword. I have to pull it out. I grab the hilt of the sword and yank as hard as I can. Its comes out with ease and without any more damage done. I quickly wrap a bandage around the wound. I done all I can do here. I walk out to get some info from Ryder.

"Ryder do you know anything about this?" I question Ryder.

"Sorry, I don't. Do you know if he is going to be alright." Ryder said clearly worried.

'' I've done all I can do. It is just a matter of time." I sighed.

3 weeks later.

The pup still has not woke up yet. Everest has been down here once a day to check on him. She must be worried about him. Well, I might as well check on him. I walk into the backroom and find a amazing sight. The pup was sitting up and stareing out of the window.

"You're ok." I gasped. He just stands there for a second and then darts back in his cage. "Hey don't worry I'm not going to hurt you." I say in a gentle tone. He pokes his head back out. "So what is your name?" I ask trying to start a conversation with him. He just stares back at me and then removes the bandages over his chest. Then he points to the scar. "So, your name is Lux?" I question. He just nods. "Can you speak pup." I ask trying to break him out of his shell. He just nods again. "Ok, can you tell me what happened to you?" He just says one word at leaves me speechless.

"Shadow." he whispers.
