A/N: I apologize for the delay, but here it is. Also, I changed the rating of this story just so there wouldn't be any complaining. Took me a while, but I managed to finish this chapter, so enjoy.

Fire emergency

A few days have passed since Marshall almost fell from the cliff and Margareth was still receiving praises from the other pup, but not as much as before. Margareth made sure to be with Marshall as much as she could during the night so Marshall couldn't leave without her noticing. That was why she was always sleeping with him. But she had another thing to worry about. Actually two things. First, she developed a crush on Lance and doesn't know if he feels the same. And two, how will she talk to Marshall about this?

"Should I tell him? No, I can't. I'm too nervous." She said to herself.

"You okay, Margareth?" Margareth turned around and saw Marshall walking up.

"Oh, it's you, Marshall. Yeah, I'm fine." Margareth said with a sigh.

"You don't look fine, sis. Is there something bothering you?" Marshall asked, obviously not wanting to see his sister depressed.

Margareth was surprised that Marshall didn't walk away even after the answer she gave him. Now knowing he wasn't going to let up that easily, she sighed.

"Okay, I'll tell you. It's about that pup, Lance." Margareth replied.

"And let me guess. You have a crush on him?" Marshall asked.

Margareth was surprised that Marshall figured that out." How-how did you know?" She asked.

"Well, it was obvious. I saw you blush once while you were staring at him." Marshall replied.

Margareth then made sure no one was close by and pulled Marshall into a bush.

"I don't know if I should tell him. He might not feel the same." Margareth said.

"Well, you won't know that unless you tell him. Besides, I have the same situation with…" Marshall spoke before pausing, not wanting his sister to know about his crush on Everest.

Margareth caught up with what Marshall said and it didn't take her long to realize what Marshall was talking about.

"You have a crush on someone, Marshy?" She asked curiously. Marshall nodded while blushing lightly.

"Oh, you do! How cute!" Margareth cooed, making Marshall blush harder. "Well, who is it?"

At that question, Marshall blushed harder. He didn't know how to respond. However, Their pup-tags went off before Marshall could say anything.

"PAW Patrol, to the Lookout!"

"Ryder needs us!" The two shouted as they and the other pups ran for the elevator. Along the way, seagulls flew alongside Marshall and as Marshall tripped over his own paws, he collected one of them and crashed into the elevator.

"Birds really like you, Marshall." Randy commented.

"They do? I didn't know that, bro." Margareth pointed out is surprise before the seagull flew off. Then the elevator went up and the pups got into gear. As they lined up, Margareth was on Marshall's right side, Randy was in between Rubble and Chase and Lance was in between Rocky and Skye.

"PAW Patrol, ready for action, Ryder, sir!" Chase announced.

"Excellent, pups. Mayor Goodway just called. One of the buildings caught fire and there are people trapped inside. We need to handle that quickly." Ryder said as he scrolled to the following icons:

"Chase, I need you to secure the scene with your cones so we can work safely."

"Chase is on the case!" Chase shouted.

"Skye, I need you to fly above and airlift anyone who reached the roof. Be careful though, too much smoke could cause the engine failure."

"Let's take to the sky!" Skye shouted with a back-flip.

"Marshall, I need you to use your fire truck hose and water cannons to put that fire out."

"I'm fired up!" Marshall shouted.

"And Margareth. I need you to have your gear ready in case people got burned, injured or inhaled smoke."

"Target is on a Healing!" Margareth shouted.

"Alright, PAW Patrol is on a roll!" Ryder shouted as he and the team deployed. Rocky noticed that Lance stared at Margareth as she was going for the slide.

"Hey, Lance? Can I talk to you?" Rocky asked. Lance nodded and both went down the elevator.

"Lance, are you having a crush on Margareth?" He asked.

Lance immediately blushed upon hearing Margareth's name. Rocky smirked at his reaction.

"W-well, I…" Lance stuttered, but sighed. "Fine, I do."

Rocky smiled." Well, you could've told her now." He said.

"I can't. What if she doesn't feel the same?" Lance asked in worry.

Rocky then smirked. "Well, do you know how she feels?" He asked.

Lance figured that Rocky was right. "True. I can't wait so long. I'll tell her as soon as she comes back."

At the scene, Chase has already set up cones and started directing people to back away from the scene. Marshall, with Ryder's help in handling the hose, started putting out the fire while Skye was airlifting anyone who reached the roof while also making sure not to be too close to the smoke. Margareth watched in amazement.

"Wow. I never knew my brother was this skilled with fighting fires." She pointed out.

"He is." Chase said. "Marshall is our best fire pup here."

"Awesome. I just hope he'll be okay." Margareth said, showing a little worry.

"Don't worry, Marshall has been doing this ever since he came to the team. Believe me, he knows what he's doing." Chase pointed out, trying to cheer Margareth up.

"Alright, Chase. If you say so." After a while, almost everyone was safely airlifted off the building and Margareth checked them out. They were mostly having trouble breathing, but were okay. Then, Skye reported.

"Ryder, one child is still in the building on the second floor and blocked by the flames! Someone will need to get in there and save her!" But she had no idea that she activated an open link because the moment she said that, Marshall turned to Ryder.

"Ryder, call the fire department to help and keep spraying that water! I'm going in!" The moment he said that, Margareth gasped.

"Marshall, no! Don't risk your own safety! There has to be another way!" She exclaimed.

"There isn't, Margareth." Ryder jumped in. "Alright, Marshall. Be careful in there."

"I will." Marshall replied before barking, "Raff! Oxygen mask!" A mask connected to an oxygen tank attached itself to Marshall's face and he quickly barked for the ladder to go to the second floor. Once there, he entered through the open window and ran through the halls, searching for the child. Once he found the correct room, he barked out his water cannons and put out the flames before running over to the child.

"It's okay. I'm here to help you." Marshall said in a comforting tone as the child gently climbed onto his back and Marshall walked back to his ladder. However, the fire was everywhere and debris was falling, but Marshall was able to maneuver around it until a large piece of debris fell right in front of a window he entered through, blocking his way out.

"Uh, oh." He said as he then ran through the halls and carefully went upstairs to find another way out. The last thing he needed is to trip and fall because of him clumsiness. Then, his pup-tag beeped.

"Marshall, you okay?" Ryder asked on the other line.

"I'm fine, but the debris blocked the window I used to enter the building. I'll have to get out of here via the roof. If I can get to it, that is." Marshall replied.

"Alright, I'll have Skye airlift you both out of there. But hurry. The building could collapse at any moment." Ryder exclaimed.

"You got it, Ryder!" Marshall said as he climbed the stairs while using the water cannons to put out the flames that were in his way and avoiding debris. Eventually, he had only one set of stairs, but his water cannons were empty.

"Okay, just a little more and I'll be out." Marshall said as he went up. It took a minute due to so much debris, but he reached the roof, where Skye was waiting with the harness.

"Hurry, Marshall!" She yelled out.

"Take the child first! She needs medical attention due to being exposed to smoke!" Marshall yelled out.

"Alright, I'll try to hurry back!" Skye shouted as the child go strapped into the harness and she took off. But as soon as she did, Marshall turned around and saw the roof was collapsing. He ran for the edge and stopped. Skye was just about to lower the harness when she saw the same thing.

"Ryder, The roof is collapsing with Marshall on top!" She yelled out. Margareth heard that and started to panic.

Ryder quickly turned to Chase. "Chase, set you safety net before Marshall falls!"

"On it! Raff! Net!"Chase barked and shot the net into position. And just in time as Marshall slipped and fell off.

"I can't watch!" Margareth panicked as she covered her eyes, not wanting to see her brother break something. The net did catch him and cushioned his fall, but because Marshall was really high before the fall, instead of breaking anything, he only hit his head upon impact with the floor and fell unconscious while still being in the net.

Immediately after that, Margareth uncovered her eyes and upon the sight of her brother in the net and not moving, she screamed out, "MARSHALL!"

A/N: Okay, now it gets intense. What will happen after the emergency? Will Marshall be okay? All will be answered in the next chapter.
