When Elias woke up on Wednesday morning he felt rejuvenated & ready to face the obstacles that'd be lying ahead during the day. He got dressed & headed into the kitchen where he cooked breakfast for everyone. The delightful aroma it gave off was enough to fill Elias with euphoria. Cooking any meal was always such a delight.
"I love cooking delicious food. The delightful aroma, beautiful taste & balanced texture all come together nicely for a journey of the senses. Hopefully everyone enjoys the breakfast I'm making" said Elias as he continued cooking. A short time later breakfast was ready. Elias had made some fruit tarts with fruit punch as a beverage accompaniment. Once breakfast was done cooking it was served at the table. Elias then tucked in. The fruit tarts packed a punch of flavour that was beautiful to eat & the fruit punch was refreshing which made it the perfect way to wash down the tart. Everyone else soon woke up & entered the kitchen. The aroma of the fruit tarts enticed them.
"Good morning. Did you all sleep well last night?" asked Elias with a warm smile.
"I sure did. What's for breakfast?" asked Angel in a curious voice.
"Fruit tarts & fruit punch. You'll love them" said Elias in a cheerful tone.
"They smell great. I bet they'll taste even better" said Kelly as she licked her lips.
"Let's eat" said Terry as everyone ate their breakfast. All of them were satisfied with how well the fruit tarts & punch had turned out.
"Wow these are nice. Every mouthful is delicious" said Ella as she gobbled down her tart.
"You said it honey. This fruit punch is also nice" said Ethan as he gulped down his punch.
"I agree. We definitely have to make this again for breakfast sometime" said Harry as he finished eating.
"I'm sure we will. Anyways we better get going. I'd hate for us to be late for work" said Susie as everyone cleaned up the dirty dishware. Ella, Ethan, Harry & Susie then headed off to work. A short time later Angel, Elias & Kelly grabbed their schoolbags & headed to school. On the way there they discussed the possibilities of situations that'd require the use of their newly acquired superpowers.
"Now that we have superpowers what do you think we might need to use them for?" asked Angel in an uncertain manner.
"I'd say it's best we use them to fend off threats to Adventure Bay & protect innocent civilians. That's what every superhero does" said Elias.
"Indeed. You don't think there's a chance an attack could happen anytime soon do you?" asked Kelly.
"I highly doubt it. The only supervillain I can think of that'd want to cause trouble would be Mayor Humdinger's nephew Harold. I bet he'll be surprised to see that we've got our own powers now" said Angel with an amused chuckle.
"Seeing as his superpower is telekinetic control over stuff that he can use to build machinery with our superpowers should be more than enough to put a stop to anything he might be planning" said Elias in a confident voice.
"I guess we'll find out the 1ST opportunity he sees to attack. For now we should be fine. There's no reason to worry about a potential attack from Harold or anyone else at the moment" said Kelly as Angel, Elias & herself arrived at school. After the usual autograph signing & picture taking with the other kids they went inside to grab what they needed for 1ST class. They were unaware that Harold was actually on the school premises. He was wearing a disguise made up of a purple hooded jumper, long grey-purple pants & a pair of sunglasses with a voice recorder system attached to it. Mayor Humdinger had sent Harold to Adventure Bay after learning about the meteor that'd landed on Adventure Beach Monday night. As Angel, Elias & Kelly got their stuff from their lockers Harold eavesdropped on them hoping to learn about the meteor & any effects it had on anyone who was near it immediately after it landed.
"Those fools have no idea that I'm here. This genius disguise will hide me from view. Now all I have to do is eavesdrop on everyone & see what I can learn. Once I've gotten enough information I'll report back to Foggy Bottom so that Uncle Mayor & his kittens can come up with a plan to take down the PAW Patrol. There's no way we'll fail" said Harold with a devious grin. As he listened to what Angel, Elias & Kelly were saying he discovered that they along with their friends had their own superpowers from the meteor & that they'd formed a superhero team called the Octosquad. Harold chuckled in amusement. Everything he heard was vital.
"I think I've got enough info on these idiots now. Time to get back to Foggy Bottom" said Harold as he snuck off unnoticed. Angel, Elias & Kelly then headed to class. As soon as Harold returned to Foggy Bottom he went straight to the lair that Mayor Humdinger & the kittens resided in. He was eager to show them what he'd recorded.
"Uncle Mayor I'm back. You won't believe what I found out from the morons in Adventure Bay" said Harold in an arrogant tone.
"Show me. This should be good" said Mayor Humdinger as Harold handed him the voice recorder system. He then ran it through a computer. Upon learning about the superpowers gained by several kids in Adventure Bay & what their new superhero team was called Mayor Humdinger grinned evilly.
"Great work Harold. If we can get the energy from the meteor to be absorbed by the kittens the PAW Patrol & their friends won't stand a chance against us" said Mayor Humdinger in a cunning manner.
"Soon we'll show everyone in Adventure Bay who the best team of animals really is" said Harold as he & Mayor Humdinger laughed evilly. Back in Adventure Bay the school day was going by uneventfully. All the students got on with their work in their respective classes. None of them knew about Harold & Mayor Humdinger's plans to form a team of supervillains including the Kitten Catastrophe Crew. At recess Angel, Elias & Kelly met up with Ryder. Ace, Carlos, Danny, Katie & Mayabella soon joined them. Ryder had called them all together to introduce special devices he worked on the previous night.
"OK guys I've called you here because I have something special for all of you. I made these last night for our superhero team. I present to you all the Octowatches" said Ryder as he revealed 8 watch devices. Each device had a different color with Ace's being blue, Carlos' being brown, Danny's being orange, Elias' being yellow, Katie's being purple, Kelly's being green, Mayabella's being grey & Ryder's being red. Each device had an alarm system built into it to alert them about potential threats from hostile forces. In addition to this there was also a function that allowed each of them to communicate with each other similar to a mobile phone or walkie talkie. All 8 Octosquad members put their Octowatches on & smiled in amazement at how well designed they were.
"These are awesome Ryder. I can't wait to give them a try" said Ace with excitement in her voice.
"You'll get the chance soon enough. Once school finishes meet me at the Lookout. I have superhero outfits for us all" said Ryder with a smile.
"Excellent. I can't wait to see what they look like" said Carlos in eagerness.
"Me either. I bet they'll look really cool" said Danny in an enthusiastic voice.
"I'm sure they will. For now let's just go about our day as normal. We wouldn't want unwanted attention to be drawn to us" said Katie in a cautious tone.
"You're right. If anyone asks about these watches we'll tell them that they're part of an experiment we're doing" said Mayabella.
"Good idea. You guys can go & play now. This meeting is adjourned" said Ryder as he & the others went to play on the playground equipment. The remainder of recess was normal for everyone. Soon the bell rang signalling the beginning of next period whereupon all the students went to get what they needed for class. Meanwhile Harold & Mayor Humdinger had snuck back into Adventure Bay. They made sure nobody could see them as they crept down to Adventure Beach where the meteor sat. It hadn't been moved since it landed & the energy source in it was still active. Once Harold & Mayor Humdinger found the meteor they retrieved a giant syringe which they injected into the meteor. They used the syringe to drain out the energy from the meteor & once they'd filled up the syringe they proceeded to sneak back to Foggy Bottom.
"Everything is working perfectly. Soon the kittens will have more power than ever before" said Harold with an evil grin.
"Those pesky pups & their friends won't believe their eyes when they see the new & improved Kitten Catastrophe Crew. Anything the pups do the kittens can do better" said Mayor Humdinger as Harold & himself left Adventure Bay unnoticed. There was still nobody in Adventure Bay who was aware of their evil scheme. Nothing unusual happened over the next few hours. The school day went as it usually would with all the students doing their work in each class to the best of their abilities. Before they knew it lunch had come around. As soon as lunch began all the students headed to the cafeteria where they grabbed their food trays, lined up, received their food & sat down to eat. The meal included roast beef, baked potato with butter, sparkling fruit water & gelato. The roast beef was juicy & succulent, the baked potato had a firm but soft texture complimented with a nice buttery taste, the sparkling fruit water was refreshing & palate cleansing & the gelato was creamy & smooth making it a delicious finish to the meal. Everyone ate lunch whilst engaged in conversation.
"I can't wait for school to finish. The outfits Ryder made are sure to look great on us" said Ace as she tucked into her roast beef.
"I agree. The outfits will likely match the colors of our Octowatches" said Carlos as he gobbled down his baked potato.
"Just as long as my costume is as daring as me I'm not too worried about what we wear" said Danny as he gulped down his sparkling fruit water.
"The pups will definitely be amazed when they see us in costume. They'll be blown away by how awesome we look" said Elias as he finished off his gelato.
"The 1ST chance I get I'm going to show Cali what my outfit looks like. Hopefully she'll like it" said Katie.
"I'm sure she will. I'm eager to show Terry what my outfit will look like. It'll be the coolest thing he's ever seen" said Kelly in an excited manner.
"Scrap will probably feel the same about mine. The look on his face will be of pure fascination & wonder" said Mayabella with an enthusiastic smile.
"There's approximately 1 hour left until the costume reveal. Trust me it'll get here sooner than you think" said Ryder as he & the others continued discussing their superhero outfits. Back in Foggy Bottom Harold & Mayor Humdinger had returned to their lair with the syringe containing the energy from the meteor. As soon as they got inside they took the syringe over to a giant machine & injected the energy into it. The machine was connected to a special chamber that would expose anyone inside to the contents of the machine meaning that getting the kittens superpowers was extremely easy.
"It's ready. The kittens can enter the chamber now" said Harold with satisfaction in his voice.
"Perfect. Let's make them super kittens" said Mayor Humdinger as he put the kittens in the chamber. After sealing it shut Harold pressed a button activating the machine. The kittens stood & waited as the machine powered up. 30 seconds later a green glow began to enter the chamber. Harold & Mayor Humdinger watched in delight as the energy from the meteorite consumed the inside of the chamber. Shortly after the entire chamber had been filled with the energy a bright light emanated from it. Following this the chamber was cleared out & the kittens emerged. Each of them had been granted different superpowers. Cat Chase obtained superhuman speed, Cat Marshall obtained telekinetic control of fire, Cat Rocky obtained telepathic control of tools, Cat Rubble obtained superhuman strength, Cat Skye obtained the ability to fly without any help from engines or flying apparatuses & Cat Zuma obtained telekinetic control of water.
"It worked. The kittens now have their own powers" said Harold in a proud voice.
"Soon Adventure Bay will see what we're all truly capable of" said Mayor Humdinger as Harold & he laughed evilly. Back in Adventure Bay the last class of the school day came & went. Just like the rest of the lessons that day everything was going as normal with the students doing their respective class assignments. Soon the bell rang signalling the end of the school day. Ace, Angel, Carlos, Danny, Elias, Katie, Kelly & finally Mayabella headed to the Lookout so that Ryder could show off their superhero costumes. All of them were excited to see how they looked. As soon as they arrived they went straight inside where Ryder was waiting. The pups were also inside eager to see the outfits as well.
"It's time to reveal the Octosquad's official superhero outfits. Each of us has a uniquely designed outfit that matches the color of our respective Octowatches. Without further adieu here they are" said Ryder as he pulled out a mobile clothes hanger. 8 different uniforms hung from it. Ace's uniform was blue & included its own set of aviation goggles in addition to having durable fabric that could withstand any weather condition, Carlos' uniform was brown & the fabric contained special chemical compounds that allowed him to control which animals to communicate with telepathically, Danny's uniform was orange & had his signature black X symbol on it with the fabric being durable enough to survive high speeds, Elias' uniform was yellow & had special grips on the hands to avoid anything slipping with the fabric being super strong & tough, Katie's uniform was purple & was able to adjust in size depending on whichever animal she morphed into, Kelly's uniform was green & was designed in a way to prevent her from being seen while invisible through any kind of heat or motion sensor, Mayabella's uniform was grey & had special sensors in the hands which allowed maximum control over fauna & flora & Ryder's uniform was red & had the ability to produce telepathic barriers which were virtually indestructible. Everyone dropped their jaws in fascination as they checked out their uniforms. None of them could believe what they saw. After the initial amazement wore off the 8 Octosquad members tried on their outfits. They were all satisfied with the way they looked & felt in their outfits.
"I love it. This outfit fits me perfectly" said Ace.
"So does mine. You did a great job on these Ryder" said Carlos in an impressed tone.
"I agree. The best part of my outfit is that I have my signature X symbol on it" said Danny in an ecstatic manner.
"We all look great. I've never seen such stylish superhero outfits in person like this before" said Elias as he looked in the mirror to see how good his suit looked.
"Me either. I bet Cali will be super impressed when I show her this" said Katie with anticipation in her voice.
"So will Terry. His mind will be blown for sure" said Kelly as she nodded in agreement.
"I hope Scrap likes my outfit. What do you guys think?" asked Mayabella in a curious voice.
"You look fine. What are your thoughts pups?" asked Ryder.
"I like how unique each outfit is. It allows you to all stand out from each other" said Angel in a cheerful tone.
"In a way it's like you all embody the colors of the rainbow with a few exceptions" said Chase with an amused chuckle.
"I can't wait to see you all in action. Everyone in town will be impressed by what they see" said Marshall in a confident manner.
"Do you think Harold, Mayor Humdinger, the Kitten Catastrophe Crew or some other troublemaker might put us all to the test?" asked Rocky with uncertainty in his voice.
"Even if they do they'll be no match for us. We've beaten them all numerous times & we'll keep doing so in the future" said Rubble as he grinned confidently.
"Rubble's right. I don't see anyone overpowering us. Together we'll be an unstoppable force" said Skye in a motivational voice.
"You know it. For now we can take it easy. Everything should be fine. Only time will tell what awaits us" said Zuma as he & the others continued discussing the outfits. Back in Foggy Bottom Harold & Mayor Humdinger had finished making outfits for all the kittens. The outfits were almost exactly the same as the pups' outfits. They all proudly admired their outfits as Harold & Mayor Humdinger discussed their next move.
"How exactly should we assert our dominance over the fools in Adventure Bay?" asked Harold.
"I think we should start by kidnapping those nearest & dearest to the PAW Patrol & their friends. That'll show everyone we mean business" said Mayor Humdinger with a devious grin.
"I like the way you think. If all goes well everyone in Adventure Bay will be trembling in fear at our power" said Harold in a sinister tone.
"Soon Foggy Bottom will become the best town in the state" said Mayor Humdinger as Harold & he laughed evilly. Back in Adventure Bay the afternoon came & went without incident. The Octosquad & PAW Patrol spent the afternoon together at the Lookout playing Pup, Pup Boogie & watching TV. When they headed home for the evening they were excited to show some of the others their new Octowatches & outfits Ryder had made. After Angel, Elias & Kelly returned home they showed Ella, Ethan, Harry, Susie & Terry their Octowatches & outfits which impressed them. After that dinner was served. The meal included a juicy & succulent roast chicken, roast vegetables served with pepper gravy that gave it a kick of spicy flavour, refreshingly sweet homemade lemonade & a decadent chocolate cake for dessert. It was a meal everyone thoroughly enjoyed. The next few hours were spent watching TV after which everyone headed to bed. Elias had a shower before changing into his pajamas, kissing Kelly goodnight & hopping in bed. As he lay awake he thought about what might happen in the near future regarding the Octosquad fighting off hostile forces.
"Today was a great day. Ryder did a great job making our Octowatches & outfits. I'm not sure when we'll 1ST get to put our powers into action but when we do we're all going to make sure the innocent folk of Adventure Bay are protected from harm. Together we'll all stand strong in the face of adversity & fight off any troublemakers that come to cause chaos & panic. The Octosquad shall prevail" thought Elias as he drifted off to sleep.
