Chapter 4
Before we get in this, I just want to say thank you so much for the support, it has really helped me with my bipolar and really keeps me happy, which for those who don't know is rare for me these days. I figured if I write more I'll actually be happy to be with people who respect me. At high school, I'm not the smartest, athletic, nerdiest, or anything child, I'm just a dude with a weird mind and many people often just make fun of me because of my appearances and heritage which really pisses me off. A Physical injury heals eventually (Okay not all) but verbal injuries don't, they stick with you. That is what I learned because all of those insults plus the break up with my girlfriend devastated me. My girlfriend was the one person who wasn't related to me to actually care about me. Because of all of you, you are helping me get back on track with my life, and even try to get popular at school. So thank you all, and here is another chapter of Before It's Too Late.
Before It's Too Late
Ryder's POV
Ryder got up of his bed and straight to his daily routine. He brushed his teeth, showered, and eventually went to check on Chase.
Ryder: "Hey Chase, how are you?"
Chase: "Ryder, I'm horrible,"
Ryder: "What?"
Chase: "I'm sick of being sick!"
Ryder: "Chase, your body is fighting the virus and you need to rest to help it!"
Chase: "The Virus or my boy?"
Ryder: "Your body! Just get rest, I'll bring you something rich in Vitamin C and you go to rest, okay?"
Chase: "Okay,"
Ryder closed his door and immediately saw V
V: "Hey Ryder, do you have any food?"
Ryder: "Oh yeah we do, here I'll show you,"
V: "Thank you,"
As Ryder and V headed to the food storage, Ryder stopped.
V: "What up Ryder?"
Ryder: "This is weird,"
V: "What is?"
Ryder: "Normally Rubble would have already eaten his food,"
V: "Maybe he's sleeping late,"
Ryder: "Maybe, here's the food, I'll see where Rubble is,"
As Ryder went to Rubble's pup house, he noticed every pup except of course Chase and Marshall were playing but Rubble wasn't there. When he heard a sneeze was when he was worried.
Ryder: "Oh no!"
Ryder opened the door to reveal a sick Rubble.
Ryder: "Rubble!"
Rubble: "Ryder, I'm sick,"
Ryder: "Oh my!"
V: "Dear lord, the virus has spread!"
Ryder: "V, you gotta leave right now!"
V: "What?"
Ryder: "You can live in the wild, I don't want you to get sick, listen, here's a paper,"
V: "What am I to do with this?"
Ryder: "Find that address to find Marshall, if you see a hospital, then you found it,"
V: "Okay?"
Ryder: "Go V! Go V!"
V: "Bye!"
As Ryder saw V leave, he immediately tended to a sick Rubble,
Rubble: "This isn't right,"
Ryder: "What?"
Rubble: "I never get sick!"
Ryder: "Well, we all aren't invulnerable, even Apollo,"
Rubble: "Why?"
Ryder: "It's life,"
Rubble: "I hate this sickness!"
Ryder: "Calm down Rubble, just go and sleep!"
Rubble: "Okay,"
Ryder: "I'll go get some Vitamin C,"
Rubble: "Okay,"
Marshall's POV:
Marshall as chilling in the hospital when his foresters came.
Antonio: "How are you feeling?"
Marshall: "I'm alright but I still feel pain,"
Oliver: "Well, don't,"
Marshall: "How?"
Antonio: "Just ignore it and do what you need to do,"
Marshall: "Oh,"
Antonio: "Well, the doctor said you will be out in a week,"
Marshall: "That's great!"
Oliver: "Yeah,"
Marshall: "Where am I again?"
Antonio: "You're in a nearby town of Adventure Bay hospital,"
Marshall: "Oh, well why hasn't Ryder-"
V: "Marshall!"
Antonio: "Well there's someone who wants to see you,"
Marshall: "Yeah,"
Marshall immediately saw V coming right towards him
Marshall: "Hey V,"
V: "It's good to see you again, how are you?"
Marshall: "I'm good,"
V: "Okay, you worried all of us,"
Marshall: "Man, I don't mean to become the center of attention,"
V: "It's okay, but here's this note,"
Marshall: "Hey, what does this say?"
A Note
Ryder: Hey Marshall, I hope you are making
a recovery and hope to see you soon, but I
need your help when you're done recovering,
you know the sickness you found in Alex?
Well, it spread to Chase and Rubble, and
I need you to come back and help treat
The sickness, so far, it doesn't look so
Dangerous or lethal, but I need a
Better doctor and that is you, here's
The pups hoping a get well soon:
Rocky: Hope you are getting better! Can't wait to see you again! Oh, and we're cool.
Skye: Get well soon my Marshmallow, I love you!
Zuma: Get well soon dude, I miss you tripping us at the elevator
V: Yo get better dude, I got nothing to say boy.
Marshall was confused about V's slang, but ignored it,
Marshall: "Where's Chase and Rubble?"
V: "Did you read the whole thing?"
Marshall: "no."
V: Sighs
Marshall: "Sorry,"
V: "It's okay,"
After reading, he was horrified.
Marshall: "Oh my god! We have to help!"
V: "There's nothing we can do, we'll just get sick ourselves,"
Marshall: "So we need to find the cure,"
Cat's POV
Cat: "Hmm,"
Austin: "What's up Cat?"
Cat: "I found something interesting about this virus in Adventure Bay,"
William: "What is it?"
Cat: "Well, first off, it's a virus, so it randomly mutates and that as long as the infected still have the virus in them, it will eventually become fatal,"
William: "That isn't a surprise,"
Cat: "But this part is, you how this virus is a weak strain deadly to dogs?"
Austin: "yeah?"
Cat: "I found one breed of dog that is immune to the virus,"
William: "What breed is that?"
Cat: "Dalmatian,"
Austin: "Hey, doesn't the PAW Patrol have a medic Dalmatian pup?"
William: "Marshall was his name, right?"
Cat: "Right,"
Austin: "So, wait, what?"
Cat: "Are you stupid?"
Austin: "no,"
Cat: "Well, don't you know what you have to do?"
Austin: "No,"
Cat: "William, tell 'em,"
William: "We have to find this Dalmatian pup Marshall,"
Cat: "He's in Adventure Bay so just look around, I'll see what else I can find about the virus,"
Austin and William: "Okay,"
Cat immediately noticed them move out, and looked into the virus,
Cat: "Interesting,"
?: "I will take those evidence,"
Cat: "No, No who are you?"
?: "I am your worst nightmare!"
Cat: "You don't look so frightening,"
?: "Well, you could do this the easy way, or the hard way,"
Cat: "What?"
?: "You give me the evidence of the virus, or I beat you up,"
Cat: "Ha! You make me laugh, you can't beat me up, I grew up in an orphanage! You don't mess with them!"
?: "Well, I am,"
Cat was immediately met with a punch but quickly grabbed his hand and punched him back, knocking him back, while the mysterious person grabbed his jaw as he groaned in pain.
Cat immediately took the chest and kicked him in the chest causing him to fall.
Cat: "So, who's beaten now?"
?: "ow, I will get those notes whether you like it or not!"
Cat: "How, at this rate I will knock you out!"
The person immediately uncovered his hood which now revealed his face.
Cat: "No,"
He then pulled out a gun and pointed it at Cat.
Cat: "You're, a terrorist!"
?: "Yeah, now give me the notes!"
Cat: "Never!"
He immediately fired a shot which luckily but barely missed Cat.
?: "That's a warning!"
Cat: "No!"
He knew the terrorist would shoot him, but he didn't expect Austin to come in.
Austin: "uh, Cat I heard screaming and anger, what's-"
The terrorist immediately shot Austin once in the abdomen, causing Austin to violently collapse.
Cat immediately took the chance to rush the terrorist, knocking the gun out and pushing him in the wall. Cat picked up the gun and pointed it at the terrorist.
?: "If I can't have the notes, no one will!"
The terrorist pulled something out his pocket and clicked it, and Cat immediately heard a tick.
Cat: "Oh no,"
?: "See you later!"
The terrorist immediately fled before Cat had the chance to shoot him.
Without any idea what to do, he picked up an unconscious Austin, put the gun in his pocket and immediately moved his best he could. He eventually went far enough where he knew a bomb couldn't affect him and dropped Austin. A few seconds later, the facility blew up with nothing standing up.
Cat: "Well this stinks,"
Cat immediately checked Austin out, but couldn't find a pulse, he was tempted to call the ambulance, but it was too late and he knew it was too. Austin died of his injuries.
Cat then called William to tell him the news.
Cat: "William?"
William: "Yes?"
Cat: "We had a terrorist attack,"
William: "What happened? IS everyone okay?"
Cat: "I am, but Austin's,"
William: "What?"
Cat: "Dead,"
There was a silence of grief.
William: "What?!"
Cat: "He was shot by the terrorist and he activated a time bomb and I escaped with him, but he's already dead,"
William: "Oh my god,"
Cat: "He blew up the notes and everything,"
William: "So now what?"
Cat: "We still look for this Dalmatian,"
William: "Okay,"
Cat: "We need to find this Dalmatian, I need to check something,"
William: "Okay,"
Ryder's POV
Ryder was busy with relaxing after giving Rubble and Chase their vitamin C.
When he heard the news was when he was paying attention.
News Caster: "Tonight we have a sad news, a bombing has occurred at a research facility, at least one is killed and another is injured. The victim, Austin Beller was killed by a gunshot wound to the abdomen, and many of his friends are mourning his death,"
Ryder: "My god!"
Skye: "Ryder, when is Marshall coming home?"
Ryder: "He's coming home a week later,"
Skye: "I want him home! I miss making love with him! I miss mating with him!"
Ryder: "uh,"
Skye: "Can't we visit him?"
Ryder: "He's with two people keeping him company,"
Skye: "Why do we trust them?"
Ryder: "Because they presumably saved Marshall!"
Skye: "DAMNIT I JUST WANNA SEE MARSHALL!"
Ryder: "You will soon, just wait seven days,"
Skye: "Okay,"
Skye left with a very sad and down head and Ryder just went to bed, hoping to see Marshall soon.
When he awoke he did his usual until he saw something was wrong. In fact, he knew it when none of the pups awoke.
Ryder: "oh no! Skye! Zuma! Rocky!"
He was cared until he saw them all awake normally with no sickness.
Ryder: "Oh thank goodness!"
A few hours later Ryder would be on his ipad when he heard a doorbell.
Ryder went to the door and saw Cat at the door.
Ryder: "Cat?'
Cat: "Ah Ryder, is Marshall there?"
Ryder: "No, I believe he was in a car accident,"
Cat: "oh my, do you know where he is?"
Ryder: "No,"
Cat: "Oh,"
Marshall POV
After Marshall heard about the terrorist attack, he was starting to have a flashback about him almost crashing.
Marshall had many flashbacks including his, time, with Skye, his life, and his best bud time with Chase, he missed those days.
Marshall: "What happened to those days? What happened when the world was peaceful, now we have aggression and outbreaks,"
Antonio: "you okay?"
Marshall: "Yeah,"
Marshall: "I'm just thinking,"
Antonio: "I understand,"
Marshall: "I just wanna feel alive, but I can't cause I'm in the hospital,"
Antonio: "It's okay, just wait,"
Marshall: "I have a mate wanting me, and I can't see her,"
Antonio: "I'll just leave,"
V: "Marshall, I'm gonna go and head back to the lookout, I'll tell you where you are so we can visit you,"
Marshall: "Okay, see you,"
V: "Bye,"
Cat's POV
Cat was in a different facility where he was figuring out the virus,
Cat: "Interesting,"
When he finally got some big notes, he always make sure it was in his pocket, but when he found something out, he was terrified.
Cat: "Oh my god,"
Cat then called William
Cat: "William, we have some info,"
William: "What?"
Cat: "I found something out about the virus,"
William: "What is that?"
Cat: "The virus is mostly harmless, however, in 2% of cases, it develops into a second and more deadlier stage where there is internal haemorrhaging, vomiting, Organ Failure, Insomnia, and jaundice,"
William: "That's bad,"
Cat: "It's spread by common fleas, rodents, mosquitoes and air,"
William: "So,"
Cat: "But this is the worst part,"
William: "What?"
Cat: "It was created by a group of bio-terrorist designed to wipe out groups of humans, but somehow, the virus mutated to a change and now mostly infects dogs and it just vanished and humans got to collect them, it seems that the terrorist that attacked the facility was a bio-terrorist, and is trying to get the notes so it could use the virus again,"
William: "So wait, there trying to kill humans?"
Cat: "Yes, and their trying to take advantage of the outbreak so they can spread, and they are trying to find that Dalmatian pup!"
