Chapter 4: The Way Thing's Are

When Marshall came too, he found himself wrapped in blankets laying on a comfy bed, he opened his eyes to see he had a drip attached with what looked like blood going in his body, he tried to turn his head but found he didn't have the strength to. Marshall laid there looking at the green roof? He was in what looked like a large cabin, with heaps of equipment he'd never seen before

"Oh my god! Marshall!" Everest yelled noticing him awake "Ryder!"

Marshall opened his mouth to speak but Everest stopped him

"Don't try to talk just yet" Everest smiled laying down besides him "I was so scared thinking we lost you"

(Why does she care so much?) Marshall thought to himself

Ryder, Donnie and Scott came into Marshall's view

"How is he Everest?" Ryder questioned giving her a pat

"I don't know I told him not to speak" Everest said laying her head besides Marshall

Donnie checked his stats "That should be enough blood, he's going to feel weak for awhile" he removed the drip from Marshall

"Whhh... Where am I?" Marshall managed to say looking up at Ryder

"Hi Marshall, I'm Scott from International Rescue we moved you in Thunderbird 2 to keep you safe" Scott smiled checking a screen next to Marshall's bed "There's no activity from Shredder or The Hood yet"

Donnie pulled the blankets off Marshall to check his wound

"His wound will be fine, I used some special glue made by Brains" Scott replied looking at Marshall "He just needs a lot of rest and like Lady P said not move"

Ryder smiled "Thank you" he planted a kiss on Marshall's head

"Scott come in" John's face appeared on a screen

Scott turned around "Hi John how's it going?"

"I've located Alan's position he's somehow activated his homing signal" John pressed a button "Sending you his coordinate's now"

"Great thanks John" Scott said looking at his screen

"Scott there's something else, it seems The Hood is on the move to your location I think he is using Alan as a decoy" John frowned

Everest looked up at Scott "What does that mean?"

"The Hood knows International Rescue will go save Alan, leaving the Paw Patrol vulnerable" John continued "I'm tracking him, he is moving towards Adventure Bay"

Donnie spoke up "We'll protect the pups"

"You don't understand" Scott turned to Donnie "The Hood is nothing like the Shredder, the Hood is a terrorist and will fight dirty"

"Scott activate the laser fence around the Lookout" John ordered "I've hacked into the local satellite for that area, I keep an eye on the situation from up here"

"Thanks John, will do" Scott ended the call then activated the fence around the Lookout "I think Marshall should remain here in Thunderbird 2 until he regains his strength"

"I'll stay here with him" Donnie said pulling out a chair

"Me too" Everest lifted her hair up "I would like to stay if that's ok with you Ryder?"

Ryder smiled "That's fine Everest, make sure Marshall doesn't try to move" he planted a kiss on Marshall's forehead "Rest pup"

Marshall flashed a weak smile and watched as Scott and Ryder disappeared from his line of vision

"Marshall?" Everest sat up and looked into his eyes

"Hi Everest" Marshall managed to turn his head and look at her "What's up?"

Everest smiled "There's something you should know"

"Huh? What's that?" Marshall questioned confused

Donnie looked at both pups (Well this is awkward) he thought to himself "I'm going to take a nap, wake me if Marshall needs something"

Everest nodded

"Everest?" Marshall tried to sit up

"No! Marshall don't move" Everest forced him back down "I need to tell you something, when I saw you injured... Well... Something inside me made me realize how much I care about you"

"I care about you too" Marshall smiled "You're my friend"

Everest too a deep breath "Not just as a friend"

"Wha..." Marshall was cut off when Everest brought her face close to his "Evvv...Everest?" he said nervously

Everest had no force over what was happening, it was although something inside of her was forcing her forward. What happened next would shock herself and Marshall, she closed her eyes and pressed her lips against Marshall's

Marshall's eyes almost popped out of his skull, at first he tried to fight it, but he found himself kissing her back, closing his eyes and was seduced by the warmth soft feeling of Everest's lips, they stayed kissing for a few moments

Adventually Everest found herself in the blankets with Marshall still kissing him, moving her paws along Marshall's body she was careful not to touch his stab wound, she removed her mouth from his then started to move her tongue along his neck and began to gently lick it, sending shivers through his body, he suddenly began to moan with every lick she placed on his neck

"Whhhhy doees that feeell so good?" Marshall asked moaning

Everest just smiled and continued to lick him giving him pleasure, she found her tongue working its way down his stomach she passed his wound across his bandages, just as her tongue went down further, she hit something causing Marshall let out a loud pleasureful moan which woke Donnie up

"Um... What..." Donnie opened his eyes as the scene unfolded in front of him *Cough*

Everest stuck her head out of the blankets "Oh my gosh! Marshall... Sorry I don't know what came over me..." She blushed

Marshall just giggled and planted a lick of her cheek (I.. I... I... WOW! That was... so... wow!) he thought to himself

"What did I just witness?" Donnie questioned out loud causes both pups to look at him "It was adorable though! You two make the perfect couple, just me April and I..." He started day dreaming, droll fell from the corner of his mouth

"Everest? doo doo.. you really like me?" Marshall blurted out

Everest licked his cheek "Of course I do silly"

"Naww now isn't that adorable" Tiger Claw laughed standing behind Donnie "Shredder wants me to bring your boyfriend to him, so I'm sorry, wait no I'm not sorry but I'll be taking him now"

"Over my dead body!" Donnie quickly turned around

Tiger Claw just laughed

"You can't!" Everest yelled out "If he moves he could reopen his stab wound"

"Do you think I care? Although Shredder does want him alive" Tiger Claw thought for a moment "Oh well, things happen" he threw a smoke bomb on the floor

Donnie started coughing then passed out

"Come near us and I'll bite you!" Everest growled

Something grabbed her and threw her on the floor "Stupid mutt" Tiger Claw picked Marshall up "Wow I don't understand why Shredder even wants you, you're already half de..." he was cut off as someone kicked him, he dropped Marshall on the ground "Who did that?!"

"Lady Penelope" She answered "Leave this place, or I'll make you suffer"

The smoke started to clear, and Lady Penelope was joined by Parker, Leo, Raph, Mikey and Scott

"I can't believe I'm in Thunderbird 2!" Mikey cheered

Raph slapped his head "Mikey focus!"

"Oh right sorry!" Mikey whispered "Yay!"

Tiger Claw stood up then picked up Marshall again

"Let me go!" Marshall snapped at him

"I will kill you for Master Shredder" Tiger Claw tore off Marshall's bandages

Everest opened her eyes as Tiger Claw pressed one of his claws against Marshall's wound "NO! STOP!" She screamed out

"Release him!" Lady Penelope went to run at Tiger Claw

"You're too late" Tiger Claw swiped his claw across Marshall wound making it deeper and longer, blood splattered on the floor then dripped down his claw

Marshall screamed out in agony as Tiger Claw threw him on the ground

Lady Penelope then kicked Tiger Claw across his face, then punched him in the gut

Just as Leo, Mikey and Raph ran at Tiger Claw, Virgil appeared with a dart gun and fired it at Tiger Claw sending him tumbling to the ground

"Cheating bastards" Tiger Claw said before falling unconscious

Everest got up and ran next to Marshall "Oh my gosh! Marshall!"

"E...Everest?" Marshall moaned "It hurts..."

"Someone help!" Everest placed her paws over Marshall re-opened stab wound

Virgil knelt besides them "I got this" he smiled placing a first aid kit besides Marshall

Everest removed her paws and watched Virgil, tears fell down her eyes

"He'll be ok" Virgil held the wound shut with one hand then glued it "Everest I need you to make sure he doesn't move while this sets"

"I can hear... you..." Marshall closed his eyes as tears ran down his cheeks "It hurts.."

"Can you do something about his pain?" Everest asked looking at Virgil

Parker walked over "We have some pain relief" he placed a needle into Marshall's side "Give it 15 minutes or so"

"Thank you" Everest smiled then licked the tears from Marshall's face "I'm not leaving your side"

Marshall flashed her a smile "Everest?"

"Yes Marshall?" Everest laid down besides him

"Um.. err... does this.. mean... we're... um..." Marshall was cut off by Everest who planted a kiss on his lips

After a few seconds Everest finished kissing him, then looked Marshall in his eyes "Yes Marshall, I guess this means we're mates if that's what you want?"

Marshall blushed "I always have" he blurted out weakly

"Then I will be happy to call you my mate" Everest licked his forehead "I think I've always loved you"

"Same, Everest I'm so happy" Marshall could not express the way he was feeling right now, even though he'd nearly been killed having Everest as a mate was something that even pain could not stop "Do we tell the others?" he asked in a soft tone

"Tell us what?" Chase stood next to Ryder

"yeah what's going on?" Skye asked seeing Scott cleaning up blood

Rubble looked at Everest then at Marshall "Olala did you two finally get it on?"

"RUBBLE!" Rocky snapped at him

Everest giggled and nodded

Ryder knelt down next to the new couple "I'm happy for the both of you, now why is Tiger Claw here?"

"He attacked us" Everest said licking Marshall's cheek, he licked hers back

"Get a room" Skye giggled

Rubble looked at Skye then at Chase "She's only jealous because she likes Chase"

"Say what?" Chase looked at Skye who blushed

"Puppy love is so adorable!" Mikey fluttered his eyes

"No Mikey, Casey love is more adorable" Casey said elbowing April who rolled her eyes "Come on red, you know you like me"

"Get over yourself Casey, she likes me more" Donnie stood in Casey's way

Casey pushed him "You wish!"

"ENOUGH!" April hit both of them over the head

Marshall tried to laugh but felt pain from his wound

"You ok?" Everest asked laying her head next to his

Marshall nodded "I'm ok I guess" then looked at Chase

"Skye?" Chase looked at her "Is that true?"

"What?" Skye asked knowing well what he meant

"You like me?" Chase asked causing himself to blush

Skye walked over to him and whispered in his ear "Maybe, well you never know" she giggled then walked off

"Seriously why can't you all just admit your love for each other?" Raph threw his arms in the air

"This is why I'll never understand women" Scott rolled his eyes "They're to complicated"

"Pardon Scott?" Lady Penelope placed her hands on her hips

"Nothing..." Scott smiled at her

Lady Penelope raised an eyebrow at him "I thought someone mentioned us women are complicated?"

"No not at all" Scott pulled out his phone "I think John is calling me... I better go..." he quickly left Thunderbird 2

Everest laughed "We're not complicated"

Marshall nodded in agreement, then noticed his wound still hurt "Why is my wound still aching?"

"Because Tiger Claw re-opened it" Donnie knelt besides him "And made it worse"
"He what?!" Ryder knelt down "What did he do to you Marshall?"

Tears fell from Marshall's eyes "He.. He... tried to take me to Shredder..."

Donnie looked at Marshall's wound "Looks like the glue is working, but it's still bleeding"

"I'll clean it up" Lady Penelope knelt besides Ryder

"But milady what do we do about this Cat? I mean Tiger Claw" Parker asked putting cuff's on Tiger Claws paws

"Kill him!" Everest yelled out "He almost killed my mate!"

Ryder looked surprised hearing Everest say kill someone

"I like when you call me that" Marshall smiled at her

"Well you are my mate" Everest licked his cheek "If someone tries to hurt you again I'll kill them"

"That would be fun to watch" Raph chuckled sarcastically

Everest turned her head "Excuse me?"

"Oh come on, what would you do? Bite their ankles? or toes?" Raph laughed

"I'll bite your's!" Everest stood and ran at him

"Everest..." Marshall attempted to get up but instantly collapsed he let out a yelp

Everest spun around to see Marshall trying to get up again "I'm sorry" she quickly ran back to him

"Scared dog, can't even keep her word" Raph smirked "Stupid mutt"

Ryder turned to him and punched him across his face "Insult one of my pups again and I'll make sure it's the last thing you ever do!"

Raph rolled his eyes

"Seriously Raph!" Leo slapped his head "Stop being so mean"

Raph sighed and sat down

"Awww! The big bad turtle got told off" Chase teased laughing

"Excuse me?!" Raph went to stand up but Lady Penelope got in his way

"Like I told you before, you are either with us or against us" Lady Penelope bent down in front of him "So far I have seen nothing but negative from you" she knelt down again besides Marshall and continued to wrap his wound

"Sorry Lady Penelope" Leo apologized "We're working with you"

Suddenly The Hood's face appeared on a screen near Marshall "Ah there we go, hello Thunderbirds, and Paw Patrol and of course the Turtles"

Marshall started shaking with fear

"Hey it's ok" Everest moved in front of him "he can't hurt you" she licked his cheek

Lady Penelope, Leo, and Virgil stood in front of the screen

"I'm so glad you are all here, I'm going to kill Alan here if you do not give Shredder, Marshall" The Hood smirked

"No!" Everest yelled at the top of her lungs "MONSTER!" she was hushed by Ryder

Donnie left without anyone noticing "I'll save Alan by myself, maybe that will be enough to impress April"

"Lady P" John said through her phone "I have The Hood's exact location, and I'm using his phone to track him"

Lady Penelope walked away from the screen so The Hood couldn't hear her "John darling please send me his location"

"Already done, be careful" John replied sounding worried

"Don't worry John, I will get Alan back" Lady Penelope left Thunderbird 2

"Now give Shredder, Marshall and I promise I won't blow this whole town up, you have 1 day" The Hood ended the call

April carefully lifted Marshall up placing him on the bed then finished dressing his wound and gave him some antibiotic's in case infection set in

Marshall instantly shifted around into the bed, making himself comfortable

Everest jumped up next to him "You comfy?" she asked him

"Yeah" Marshall smiled licking her cheek

"Ryder? Can I stay with him?" Everest questioned looking up at him

Ryder smiled "Of course you can stay with your mate"

Everest snuggled herself close to Marshall

"Pups lets go back to the Lookout" Ryder said patting Marshall's head then Everest's, he knelt down next to her "Go easy with Marshall, remember he's still injured"

Everest knew what Ryder meant "I will, I won't force him into anything" she smiled

"Good girl, I trust you" Ryder stood up then left Thunderbird 2 with the other pups

Marshall tried to roll over so he could face his new mate, but he was unable to move due to his wound

"What's wrong?" Everest asked laying down next to him "Marshall?"

"Nothing" Marshall turned his head "Everest why do you like me? I'm so.." He was cut off as Everest placed her lips against his

About 1 minute later after a very long passionate kiss Everest finally removed her lips from his "Do I need a reason?" she smiled licking his cheek "Marshall I want us to take this relationship slow, lets not rush into anything"

Marshall nodded "I won't be able to do anything, anyway because of this stab wound" Tears fell from his eyes thinking he couldn't please Everest until his wound heals which at this rate could take months

"It's ok" Everest wiped his tears away "Who said anything about you doing it?"

Marshall's eyes lit up

"But right now you need to rest" Everest smiled pulling a blanket over him "I'll be right here next to you"

Marshall closed his eyes as Everest wrapped her paws around him, within minutes Marshall was sound asleep snoring

"How is he?" Parker asked walking over

"Well his wound stopped bleeding, he's resting now" Everest whispered so she wouldn't wake Marshall up "I hope he's going to be ok"

Parker smiled "The pup is a fighter with a strong spirit and now a loving and caring Mate, I'm sure he's going to be just fine" he said giving her a pat "Now what should we do about him" He pointed to Tiger Claw

Leo walked over next to Tiger Claw who was tied up "I would like to make him pay"

"No leave him with International Rescue, we will deal with him" Parker replied forcing Tiger Claw to his feet "I will put him in a holding cell until Lady Penelope gets back"

Gordon walked over to Parker "I've scanned this whole area for The Hood, it looks like Tiger Claw was using The Hood's phone"

"I agree" Scott entered Thunderbird 2

Virgil followed behind "Scott what do we do ab..." he was cut off

"Hey where's Donnie?" April turned around noticing he was gone "He was right here a moment ago"

Leo scratched his head

"Scott come in" John called through a big screen

"Hi John" Virgil answered it

"Any news?" Gordon asked walking over to the screen with Scott, and the turtles

John floated across to his screen "Well I'm still tracking Alan, his location has not moved. I can see Lady P is on route to his location"

Leo approached the screen "Excuse me John?"

"Yes?" John was a little shocked to see Leo at first

"One of my brother's is missing, can you track him?" Leo asked

John smiled and nodded "Of course, Scott send me his number and I'll track him now"

Scott got Donnie's number from April then sent it to John

"Alright got it, one minute" John said pressing button's "Ok I can see he's heading towards Alan's location actually not far from Lady P, I'll see if I can contact her to inform her"

"Oh my god! Is that Thunderbird 5?! The space Station!" Mikey ran over looking at John he gasped "And you're John! This is sooooo cool!"

"Why thank you" John grinned "Yes this is Thunderbird 5"

Mikey was jumping on the spot clapping

"You're so embarrassing Mikey" Raph covered his face with his hand "Can't believe I'm related to you"

Mikey raised an eyebrow at Raph

"Did you just raise your eyebrow at me?" Raph went to slap him

Leo grabbed Raph's hand "Guys focus" he sighed "Don't make me slap both of you"

Raph burst out laughing "You slap like a girl Leo"

April took offense to that and slapped Raph so hard he fell over

Scott, Gordon and Virgil laughed

"Geez I'm so glad I'm all the way up here" John laughed "Being near a woman like that would be scary"

Everest coughed "I'm a girl too you know"

Raph stood up "But your a do..." He interrupted by Leo who put his hand over Raph's mouth

"Alright Lady P has been notified of Donnie's location" John replied "I will continue to scan movement in Adventure Bay for Shredder and The Hood, and give you all updates when I receive them"

"Thanks John" Scott smiled waving goodbye

John nodded "John out" he ended the call

Scott turned to his brothers "Gordon, come with me in Thunderbird 1 I want to get a complete scan of the area"

Gordon nodded and followed Scott out of Thunderbird 2

April and Virgil stayed with Everest and Marshall, while Casey and the turtles headed back to the Lookout, April decided to check on Marshall she gently up-wrapped his bandages, Everest watched Marshall closely

Marshall woke up when April was examining his wound "How does it look?" he asked yawning

April smiled "No signs of infection, it's weeping blood though"

Marshall flinched when he tried to move

"How are you feeling?" Everest asked licking his cheek

"Tired and sore" Marshall replied sighing

April felt his head "Your temperature feels a little high, would you like me to get you an ice pack? To keep your temperature down"

Marshall nodded

"Alright, I'll keep your wound uncovered for a few moments and go get an ice pack from Ryder" April smiled "Will you both be ok while I'm gone?"

"I'm still here" Virgil said walking through a door to the bay of Thunderbird 2 "If you need anything call out, I'll be in here" he walked back into the bay

"We'll be fine" Everest laid her head next to Marshall's

April nodded and left Thunderbird 2

Marshall watched as April left (I can't believe Everest is my mate!) he thought to himself (But how can I take her on dates like this? I can't even move)

"Marshall are you ok?" Everest asked with a concerned look on her face

"It's... just..." Marshall's eyes began to tear up "How can we do normal things couple's do? With me like this?"

Everest replied by a kiss to his lips she moved away then looked him in his eyes "Marshall I don't care if we're not like 'normal couple's', we're together that's all that matters to me, it's the days and nights I'm going to spend caring for you" She licked his cheek "I want to make you happy"

"You do" Marshall returned the lick on her cheek "It's just..."

"Shh" Everest placed her paw over his mouth

Marshall blinked and looked Everest in her eyes, she removed her paw from his mouth

The last sunlight disappeared from the windows

"This is our first night together" Everest smiled snuggling herself next to her mate "I'll take care of you, and help you get better I promise" she planted a lick on his neck

Marshall smiled and licked her neck "Everest? Since... this is... well.. our... first... night... together... I errr want to make... it unforgettable..."

"Marshall what are you saying?" Everest stopped licking him and looked him in his eyes

"I think he's saying he wants to mate with you" Virgil blurted out standing at the bay doors "Woops... sorry" he walked out

Everest giggled as Marshall's face turned bright red "I told Ryder we would take it slow"

"I don't mean.. that... I'm not ready..." Marshall's face turned as red as his truck "I can't anyway... I'm too weak... no energy.." he blushed

"Oh Marshall, don't be silly" Everest planted a lick on his forehead "I wouldn't let you do it anyway" She giggled "I want to have some fun, not just let you do all the hard work"

Marshall blushed even more "Huh? Do all the work?"

"Well you know 'mating' when your better I want to give it a shot" Everest said licking his face

"Um... err... hey... what... You... want too mate?..." Marshall blurted out blushing more as he asked her

Everest looked confused "I mean not yet, but once your better, I want us to take it slow, don't rush into it, I want it to be perfect" she smiled at him

"I... Don't think I could do it" Marshall almost choked on his words

"Mate?" Everest asked him

Marshall nodded "I dunno how"

Everest burst out laughing "Marshall, I guess we'll have to figure it out sometime"

"Can't be too hard right?" Marshall gulped "I just have to stick my ..."

Everest covered his mouth with her paw "Woah that will do" She giggled "Enough of that talk" she coughed

Marshall nodded, Everest removed her paw "Just thinking about that makes me feel weird" he giggled

"Same" Everest pressed her mouth against his lips

Marshall returned the kiss (Why does my... *cough* feel hard?) he questioned himself as Everest continued to give him a passionate kiss

Everest moved her paws over Marshall's body she moved one paw across his stomach passed his wound that's when she felt something hard "Wow Marshall" she released her lips from his "I'm sorry did I make you horny?"

"What?..." Marshall gulped (I have no idea what that means, maybe it has something to do with my *cough* being hard) he thought to himself

Everest licked his cheek "It's ok Marshall, it's natural for you to feel like this, and we're mate's now so it doesn't matter" she smiled "Now lets not get carried away, when we do mate for the first time, it should be romantic and when we both want it"

"Huh? I'm confused" Marshall's head started to hurt thinking about it "First you want to mate? then you don't?"

"Of course I want to mate with you silly" Everest laid her head next to his "Just not right now, once you're better"

A cough was heard behind Marshall's bed, Everest lifted her head up to see Ryder standing there

"Um... Ryder?" Everest blushed "How much of that did you hear?"

Ryder walked over "I heard enough" he looked serious

Marshall pulled the blankets over his head completely embarrassed, he started whimpering

"I want to talk to both of you regarding this" Ryder tried to pull the blankets back but Marshall held onto them tightly

"Ryder?" Everest looked up at him "I..."

"Shhh" Ryder hushed her "Listen to me, you both are maturing fast, and mating is a natural thing for couples to do, but there are risks for example Everest you could fall pregnant, and at this stage with everything going on I don't think that's a good idea, however if that were to happen I will stand by both of you" he pulled the blankets back "Marshall as your owner I want you to know if you did mate with Everest, don't you ever think I will be cross with you"

"Ryder's right" Everest smiled "With the Hood and Shredder out there, plus you're hurt"

Marshall flashed a small smile "I know" he licked Everest's cheek

"Anyway I came to check on you, how are you feeling Marshall?" Ryder sat down besides his bed

Marshall was too busy thinking of Everest he had completely forgot about his wound, it wasn't till he tried to move that his pain returned "It still hurts"

Ryder felt his head "You feel a little hot"

"Yeah April was suppose to come back with a Ice pack for him" Everest felt Marshall's forehead "Did she go in the lookout?"

"What? No?" Ryder looked confused "April never came"

"She's missing?" Marshall asked looking worried

Ryder's pup pad rang "Hello Ryder here" He as surprised to see Katie's face "Hi Katie"

"Ryder? HELP! Someone's chasing me!" Katie shouted in distress

"What?!" Both Everest and Marshall said together

"Katie where are you?" Ryder asked in a worried tone

Katie suddenly tripped over "Pup park... NO! Get away from me! RYDER HELP!"

Ryder witnessed a shadow knock Katie out and carry her away

"KATIE!" Ryder yelled out as he received another call "Hello? Katie?!"

"No Ryder it's Mayor Goodway, someone is in the city hall... I can hear them..." She turned around "WHO are you? What are you doing here? GET AWAY FROM CHICKALETTA! HEY! NOOO!" Mayor Goodway was knocked out to by an unknown person

Meanwhile Chase was taking a pee near a tree beyond the laser fence when something hit him across the head knocking him out

Virgil came walking back in just as The Hood and Shredder appeared on the Screen

"By now you all are aware we have 2 residence of this town plus Alan and now a Paw Patrol member" The Hood smirked

"WHAT?!" Ryder, Marshall and Everest all yelled together

"Oh yes we have um what's that mutt's name?" The Hood looked at Shredder

"I think his name is Chase?" The Shredder answered "Give me Marshall or you will never see any of them alive again, I will give them back in body bags"

Tears fell down Marshall's face "Just do it! Give me over don't let them die because of me"

All eyes turned to Marshall in-shock

To be continued
