Back in the unknown town the PAW Patrol & their allies were still trying to figure out where they were.

"How did we even get here?" asked Ryder in a confused voice.

"I don't know" said Elias as he shrugged in uncertainty.

"Once we find the culprits responsible we'll destroy them" said Kelly with an angry growl.

"What town do you think we're in?" asked Kenneth in a curious tone.

"I don't know. I don't recognize this place" said Ryder.

"I don't think any of us do. The last thing I remember before ending up here was when we attempted to put out a fire in the woods" said Marshall.

"Perhaps the person or group who lit the fire is also responsible for bringing us here" said Elias.

"That's a likely possibility" said Ryder as he nodded in agreement.

"What do we do?" asked Chase in an uncertain manner.

"I think we should set up an SOS beacon & hope that someone finds us" said Arrby.

"Good thinking Arrby. What can we use to make 1?" asked Sid as he looked around for resources.

"Let's look around & see what we can find" said Elias as everyone began looking around for materials & resources to make an SOS beacon with.

"Here's some twigs" said Rocky as he gathered up a pile of twigs.

"Good job Rocky. Have any of you found anything else?" asked Brutus with curiosity in his voice.

"I found some leaves" said Angel as she brought a pile of leaves over.

"Here's some flint" said Kenneth as he placed the flint by the leaves & twigs.

"I found some matches" said Ryder as he put the box of matches with the other resources.

"Perfect. Let's get to work" said Elias as everyone used the leaves & twigs to build a fire pit. They then began using the flint & matches to get a flame. After a few attempts they lit a match with the flint & set the fire pit alight.

"Excellent. Hopefully someone will come by & find us soon" said Ryder as he & the others sat & waited. A short time later a 2 headed vulture flew by & spotted the fire. Its name was Staldorf.

"I wonder what's going on down there" said Staldorf as he flew down to see what the fire was for.

"Hello. What's the situation with the fire?" asked Staldorf as it tilted its heads in confusion.

"It's an SOS beacon. We don't know where we are, how we got here or who did this to us. Can you help us?" asked Elias.

"Sure thing" said Staldorf with a smile.

"Where can we go to receive further assistance?" asked Ryder in an uncertain voice.

"There's a city called San Francalico nearby. Follow me" said Staldorf as it began leading everyone towards San Francalico.

"Is San Francalico meant to be like San Francisco?" asked Elias in a confused tone.

"It kind of is. It's a lot different though" said Staldorf with a nod of confirmation.

"I can imagine" said Elias.

"What town were we just in?" asked Ryder in a curious manner.

"Ghastly Gulch" said Staldorf.

"I've never heard of that place before" said Elias as he shook his head.

"None of us have" said Ryder.

"I hope we can get home. Everyone in Adventure Bay must be worried sick about us" said Kelly with concern in her voice.

"I don't doubt that" said Terry as he sighed.

"How far away from home do you think we are?" asked Elias in uncertainty.

"It's anybody's guess" said Angel with a shrug.

"I have a feeling we're a far distance away from Adventure Bay" said Ryder.

"Agreed" said Jake as he nodded.

"Once we get to San Francalico we'll be able to find a way back to Adventure Bay" said Carlos in a reassuring voice.

"I hope everyone at home is doing OK" said Tracker.

"Hopefully mine & Sweetie's absence isn't causing Barkingburg to suffer" said the Princess of Barkingburg in a nervous tone.

"I agree. It'd be a shame if the kingdom fell apart" said Sweetie with a whimper.

"I think this is the longest time I've ever been on land" said Arrby.

"It's the same with me" said Sid as everyone continued walking. A short time later they reached San Francalico.

"Here we are" said Staldorf.

"Wow this place is huge" said Elias as he & the others looked around in amazement at what they saw.

"It sure is. Where do we go now?" asked Kelly in an uncertain manner.

"There's a mansion in the centre of the city that houses a large family who can help you" said Staldorf with confidence in its voice.

"Can you show us where it is?" asked Ryder.

"You bet. It's this way" said Staldorf as it led everyone through San Francalico. As they walked through the city they noticed various anthropomorphic animals & humans everywhere.

"Looks like there are a lot of people who like to dress up in this city" said Elias with an amused chuckle.

"They're not in costume. They're all real living beings" said Staldorf.

"I don't know how that's possible but I digress. Obviously we're not on planet Earth anymore" said Elias in an intrigued voice.

"You're on Anthropod 12" said Staldorf.

"I've never heard of it" said Elias with a head shake.

"None of us have" said Ryder.

"Don't worry I'm sure you'll fit right in" said Staldorf as it smiled reassuringly.

"I hope so" said Kelly in a cautious tone.

"Are we close to the mansion?" asked Ryder in a curious manner.

"Yes. We're almost there" said Staldorf with a smile.

"I bet it's just as much if not more elegant than my mansion back at home" said Elias as he smiled in amazement.

"It probably is" said Kelly with a nod of agreement.

"I can't wait to see what it looks like" said Angel with enthusiasm in her voice.

"Me either. It'll be like 1 giant piece of eye candy" said Terry.

"All that matters is that the residents help us get home" said Ryder.

"I'm sure they'll be able to help" said Elias as everyone continued walking. Soon they arrived at the mansion & dropped their jaws in awe at what they saw.

"It's beautiful" said Elias in a fascinated voice.

"It sure is" said Kelly as she nodded.

"Let's see if anyone's home" said Ryder as he rang the doorbell. Everyone then waited for someone to answer. Moments later a small robotic owl named Herbert opened the door.

"Hello. How can I help you?" asked Herbert in a polite tone.

"We're lost. We were abducted from our home & brought here by an unknown person or group. Can you help us?" asked Elias.

"You bet. I should be able to help you all return home" said Herbert with a confident smile.

"Thanks" said Elias in an appreciative manner.

"You're welcome. Please come in" said Herbert as everyone went inside. They gasped in amazement at the elegance of the mansion's interior.

"Wow this is an elegant home" said Arrby with fascination in his voice.

"I wish I had all this luxury" said Sid as he smiled in amazement.

"Don't push your luck Sid. If you try to steal anything you'll get a 1 way ticket to Davy Jones' locker" said Elias in a stern voice.

"I'm never going there" said Sid as he shook his head.

"Then be a good pirate & don't try anything stupid" said Elias with a harsh glare. Meanwhile a teenage girl named Suzan was in her room practicing her martial arts kicks.

"You've met your match asshole. Taste foot" said Suzan as she kicked the punching bag in her room with intense strength causing it to swing around wildly in every direction. After a few minutes she stopped.

"Nobody gets past my lethal legs" said Suzan as she left her room & headed to the kitchen to get a drink of water. As she did so she overheard Herbert talking to everyone else.

"Where are you all from?" asked Herbert in a curious tone.

"We're from Adventure Bay. Do you know where that is?" asked Elias in an uncertain manner.

"Yes. It's near Foggy Bottom. My brother Horace is the mayor of that town" said Herbert.

"WHAT? No way" said Ryder as he dropped his jaw in shock.

"Is that true?" asked Kelly with disbelief in her voice.

"Correct. Horace Humdinger is my brother" said Herbert with a nod of confirmation.

"I didn't see that coming. I barely know him myself but from what I've heard he's a narcissistic jerk who constantly cheats in competitions & tries to sabotage Adventure Bay whenever he gets the chance" said Elias with an annoyed sigh.

"That's not the man I know" said Herbert in a surprised voice.

"He's probably keeping that side of him secret from you" said Elias as Suzan growled in anger listening to what was being said.

"Who does that kid think he is? Uncle Horace is a great man. I'll give that brat a knuckle sandwich if he doesn't shut his mouth" said Suzan in an angry tone.

"I don't know if you know about this but he actually created a rip off team of the PAW Patrol to cause trouble. He's totally jealous of how successful Mayor Goodway & Adventure Bay is compared to him & Foggy Bottom" said Elias as Suzan stormed over with her fists clenched in anger.

"Who the hell do you think you are talking crap about Uncle Horace?" asked Suzan in a furious manner.

"Everything I'm saying is true. Most of the stuff I know about him is through Mayor Goodway, Ryder & other Adventure Bay residents. Obviously you haven't seen for yourself what schemes he's pulled to cause trouble in the past" said Elias with a scoff.

"Listen here you little brat. I know what my uncle is like. You're trying to damage his reputation. You better watch yourself you blonde haired brat" said Suzan as she grabbed Elias by the shirt.

"GET OFF ME YOU LUNATIC" yelled Elias as Kelly grabbed Suzan by the hair & pulled her down releasing Elias from her grip.

"Are you OK babe?" asked Kelly with concern in her voice.

"Yes. Thanks" said Elias as he smiled.

"Nobody messes with my man" said Kelly as Suzan got to her feet.

"You're dead meat you little bitch" said Suzan with a growl.

"Leave my boyfriend alone" said Kelly as she glared at Suzan.

"That's enough. Suzan you need to calm down. I get that you're upset but acting like this won't do any good" said Herbert as he tried to diffuse the situation.

"He started it. I'm not the 1 talking crap about other people's families" said Suzan in a disgusted voice.

"I'm not saying it to be an asshole. All I'm doing is expressing what I know about Mayor Humdinger through personal experience & the way other people feel & think about him" said Elias with an eye roll.

"Mayor Humdinger has attempted to sabotage Adventure Bay numerous times in the past. You can ask other residents of Adventure Bay & they'll tell you the same thing" said Ryder.

"You're all lying. I know him better than you do" said Suzan as she scowled in disgust.

"We're telling the truth. You're just being a stupid brat" said Kelly in an annoyed tone.

"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU" yelled Suzan as she tackled Kelly to the ground & punched her with intense strength.

"GET THIS PSYCHO AWAY FROM ME" cried Kelly as she tried to fend Suzan off.

"TAKE THIS YOU LITTLE BRAT" yelled Suzan as she continued pounding Kelly. Kelly tried to break free but Suzan's grip was too strong. Kelly became battered, bloody & bruised a short time later. Suzan then got off her.

"You brought this on yourself" said Suzan.

"WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM? GO TO HELL" yelled Kelly as she stormed off in tears. Elias began clapping sarcastically.

"That was real classy Suzan. I bet you're feeling really proud" said Elias in a sarcastic manner.

"Do you want me to bust your ass as well?" asked Suzan with a growl.

"No thanks. I wouldn't want to ruin your figure" said Elias with a taunting smirk.

"You wouldn't stand a chance against me" said Suzan as she scoffed in amusement.

"You're pathetic. Grow up little girl" said Elias as he went to look for Kelly. An anthropomorphic Calico feline named Logan then appeared.

"What's going on in here?" asked Logan with worry in his voice.

"A couple of blonde brats were talking crap about Uncle Horace. I just kicked the girl's ass" said Suzan in a satisfied voice.

"Why do you always do that?" asked Logan as he sighed.

"I was defending Uncle Horace's honour. These jerks think he's a bad man" said Suzan with a scowl of disgust.

"We already tried explaining to her what we knew about him but she refused to listen" said Ryder in a frustrated tone.

"What was being said about Uncle Horace?" asked Logan in a curious manner.

"They said he was a narcissistic jerk who always causes trouble for Adventure Bay. Everything they said was a lie" said Suzan.

"No it wasn't. You don't know him the way we do. If you did you'd understand where we're coming from" said Ryder as he shook his head in disappointment.

"Whatever you say" said Suzan in disbelief. Meanwhile Elias looked around the mansion for Kelly.

"Kelly where are you?" asked Elias as he followed the sound of Kelly crying. He soon found her in a spare room.

"There you are babe. Are you OK?" asked Elias with concern in her voice.

"No. That angry lunatic had no right to attack me" said Kelly as tears ran down her face.

"I don't agree with what she did either. If she'd actually listened to us the situation wouldn't have escalated" said Elias with an annoyed sigh.

"I'll be furious if she doesn't apologize" said Kelly in an angry voice.

"I'm sure she will" said Elias as he gave Kelly a hug. He then spotted a chair, a feather & some rope. An idea came to his mind as he smiled mischievously.

"I know how to cheer you up" said Elias with a warm smile.

"What do you have in mind?" asked Kelly as she wiped away her tears.

"Let's tickle torture each other. That'll make you feel better. Want to do it?" asked Elias in an enthusiastic tone.

"I don't know. Are you sure it'll work?" asked Kelly in an uncertain manner.

"Yes. We'll both enjoy it. I'll let you worship my muscles afterwards. I just want to help make you feel better. That's how much I love you. Are you up for it?" asked Elias.

"Well… OK. Anything to touch your muscles" said Kelly with a flirtatious smirk.

"Excellent. Who shall be tickled 1ST?" asked Elias as he grinned mischievously.

"You should" said Kelly.

"OK. Let the fun begin" said Elias as he stripped down to his underwear. Kelly then tied him down to the chair with his arms flexed before grabbing the feather.

"I'm going to enjoy this" said Kelly as she began tickling Elias' armpits. He laughed uncontrollably as his muscles bulged & tensed.

"HAHAHA THIS IS FUN" cried Elias in delight.

"It sure is" said Kelly as she then began tickling Elias' abs & chest while he continued laughing.

"THIS FEELS GREAT. HAHAHA" laughed Elias.

"I'm glad I agreed to this" said Kelly as she inserted the feather into Elias' navel & tickled it as Elias roared with laughter.

"HAHAHA MORE, MORE" cried Elias.

"As you wish" said Kelly as she tickled Elias' legs & feet.

"TICKLE ME PINK. HAHAHA" laughed Elias.

"You're so cute" said Kelly as the tickling continued. Soon she finished & untied Elias from the chair which she was then tied down to.

"Ready for it?" asked Elias with cheekiness in his voice.

"Make me laugh as loud as possible" said Kelly as Elias began tickling her. He tickled her in almost all the same spots as she laughed uncontrollably.

"Does that feel good?" asked Elias in a flirtatious voice.

"YES. HAHAHA" cried Kelly as Elias continued tickling her. A short time later he stopped & untied her.

"That was fun. Ready to worship my muscles?" asked Elias with a cocky smirk.

"Make sure you flex them real good" said Kelly in a seductive tone.

"I will" said Elias as he flexed his muscles. Kelly felt his biceps.

"These biceps are huge. I love them" said Kelly in an excited manner.

"All for you sexy" said Elias as Kelly kissed & licked his biceps. She then felt his abs & pecs.

"What do you think of my body?" asked Elias with a grin.

"It's perfect. I can't get enough of it" said Kelly as she kissed & licked Elias' abs & pecs sucking on his navel & nipples in the process. She then felt his calves & quads.

"I have a great body don't I?" asked Elias with arrogance in his voice.

"You sure do" said Kelly as she kissed & licked Elias' calves & quads. They then locked lips while holding each other close. After a few minutes they broke apart.

"I love you Kelly" said Elias in a loving voice.

"I love you too Elias" said Kelly as Elias put his shirt & pants back on.

"Should we go & see if everything has calmed down?" asked Elias in a curious tone.

"I guess" said Kelly with a sigh.

"Let's go" said Elias as he & Kelly headed back to the foyer.

"Hey guys. How's the mood in here?" asked Elias.

"It's a bit better" said Ryder.

"At least it's not like it was before. Suzan I'm sorry for coming across as nasty in what I said. There wasn't any malicious intent in it. I was only saying what I knew about Mayor Humdinger based on how I & other residents of Adventure Bay saw him. I'm sure he's a great uncle to you. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me" said Elias in an apologetic manner.

"Even if I despise people talking crap about Uncle Horace I forgive you" said Suzan with an accepting nod.

"Thanks" said Elias as he smiled.

"I'm sorry for getting so angry over what happened & for beating up your girlfriend" said Suzan.

"I forgive you" said Elias with a reassuring smile.

"Thanks" said Suzan as Elias & her shook hands.

"I'm sorry for causing a fight. It was wrong of me to do that" said Kelly with regret in her voice.

"You're forgiven" said Suzan.

"So where are you all from?" asked Logan in a curious voice.

"We're from Adventure Bay. We have no idea how we got here or who's responsible for bringing us here but we need to get back home" said Ryder as he sighed sadly.

"Staldorf brought us here after it found us in Ghastly Gulch. What do we do?" asked Elias in an uncertain tone.

"This is quite a sticky situation" said Herbert as he tried to think of a solution.

"I'm sure you'll think of something" said Ryder in a confident manner.

"Anyways you're all lucky to live in such a beautiful house. It's just as much if not more lovely as my house" said Elias with a smile.

"Thanks. It is quite a nice place to live" said Logan with pride in his voice.

"Damn straight it is" said Suzan as she nodded in agreement.

"I'll see if I can try & contact Horace" said Herbert.

"Excellent. Once we contact him he should be able to come & help" said Ryder in a hopeful voice.

"It'll redeem him in my eyes if he does that" said Elias.

"Trust me he's a good man. I swear on it" said Suzan in a confident tone.

"I won't deny that" said Elias with a nod.

"Me either" said Kelly.

Back in Adventure Bay the KCC & their allies arrived at the Lookout & were shocked to see the damage done to it.

"Yikes. This place doesn't look too good" said Mayor Humdinger in a shocked manner.

"It looks awful. When we find the culprits responsible they'll get the biggest ass kicking imaginable" said Mayor Goodway with an angry growl.

"Do you think we'll find any clues that'll help identify who did it?" asked Katie with uncertainty in her voice.

"We might" said Carlana as everyone began looking around for anything that'd help solve the mystery. Suddenly Mayor Humdinger's phone started ringing.

"I wonder who that could be" said Mayor Humdinger as he grabbed his phone & answered the call.

"Hello this is Horace" said Mayor Humdinger.

"Hrce it is Hrbrt. We fnd the P Ptrl. Can u cm & hlp?" asked a distorted voice.

"The signal's pretty weak. I can barely hear anything" said Mayor Humdinger as he tried to make out what was being said.

"Unle Hrce cn yu hr me?" asked a 2ND distorted voice.

"Who is this?" asked Mayor Humdinger in a confused voice.

"It's me Szn. We fnd the P Ptrl" said the 2ND voice.

"I can't understand you. The reception's too weak" said Mayor Humdinger.

"Myr Hmdgr wht hpnd?" asked a 3RD distorted voice.

"Sorry I can't hear you. I'll call you back when the signal improves" said Mayor Humdinger as he hung up.

"The signal was too weak for him to make out what we were saying" said Herbert as a canine/Inkling hybrid named Monty appeared completely naked.

"I just had sex & it felt so good. A woman let me put my penis inside her" said Monty in a cheeky tone.

"MONTY PUT YOUR CLOTHES ON" yelled Suzan as Monty gasped in shock upon realizing there were guests in the house.

"Sorry. Be right back" said Monty as he headed to his room to get dressed.

"That was awkward" said Elias with a confused chuckle.

"Monty's obsessed with dating hot girls" said Logan as he sighed.

"Ironically every girl he meets rejects him" said Suzan with an amused scoff.

"It's not the worst thing we've seen" said Kelly in a nonchalant manner.

"Anyways what did it mean about the signal being weak?" asked Ryder as he tilted his head in confusion.

"The cell towers are probably too far apart" said Herbert.

"How else can we contact Mayor Humdinger?" asked Ryder with curiosity in his voice.

"I don't know" said Herbert as he shrugged in uncertainty.

"Maybe our science teacher Professor Walter can help" said Logan with a hopeful smile.

"You're not referring to my father are you?" asked Kelly in a confused voice.

"No we're referring to 1 of our teachers at Bakeneko High School" said Suzan.

"OK. The reason I asked is because Walter is my last name" said Kelly as she nodded in acknowledgement.

"That's an interesting coincidence" said Suzan with a smile.

"Should we check to see if he's at the school?" asked Elias in a curious tone.

"I don't see why not. We better be careful though. There are a lot of shady people on the streets" said Suzan in a cautious manner.

"We can handle anything. If you knew about everything we've been through you'd know we're pretty tough cookies" said Elias with confidence in his voice.

"If you insist" said Suzan as everyone headed out to Bakeneko High School to find Professor Walter. Back in Adventure Bay everyone was trying to figure out how to improve the signal of telecommunication.

"There must be some way we can get the signal in better condition" said Mayor Humdinger.

"We'd need to build a signal tower strong enough to establish clear contact" said Mayor Goodway.

"Where do we find 1?" asked Katie in an uncertain voice.

"Maybe the junkyard has stuff we can use to build 1" said Tabby as he smiled excitedly.

"Good idea. Let's go see" said Mayor Humdinger as everyone headed to the junkyard to find resources that could be used to build a signal tower.

"If Scrap was with us he'd be of great help since he used to live in the junkyard" said Katie.

"Good point. He'd know the junkyard like the back of his paw" said Carlana with a nod of agreement.

"That'd be handy" said Tabby.

"Should we go & ask if Mayabella & Scrap want to help in finding the PAW Patrol?" asked Katie in curiosity.

"OK" said Tabby as he nodded.

"Let's go" said Katie as she & the others headed to Mayabella & Scrap's house to ask for help. They arrived a few minutes later.

"Here we are" said Katie as she knocked on the door.

"Is anyone home?" asked Katie as everyone waited. A few seconds later Mayabella & Scrap opened the door.

"Hello. What can we do for you?" asked Mayabella in a polite tone.

"We're trying to build a signal tower to get in contact with the PAW Patrol & everyone else who was with them when they vanished. Since Scrap used to live at the junkyard we figured you 2 would be of great help. Are you up for it?" asked Katie.

"I guess so. We should be careful though. I think there are some kids running amok in there" said Scrap in a cautious manner.

"I'm sure we can handle anything if they cause trouble" said Katie as everyone headed to the junkyard.

"What happened to the PAW Patrol anyways?" asked Scrap with confusion in his voice.

"They & their allies disappeared after the forest fire. We've been trying to contact them ever since" said Katie with a sigh.

"I hope they're OK" said Mayabella in a concerned voice.

"Me too" said Katie as she nodded in agreement.

"Hey Scrap I have to admit you look like you could be Rubble's twin brother" said Cali with an amused chuckle.

"I get that a lot. The only difference between us is that I'm an American Bulldog & Rubble's an English bulldog. My fur is also a bit scruffier" said Scrap.

"That's true" said Cali with a nod.

"Are you from another country Scrap?" asked Rio.

"No. As far as I can remember I lived in the junkyard until my previous owner died from a nicotine related heart attack. Mayabella took me in & I've been with her ever since" said Scrap as he smiled.

"It's nice to have a pup of my own. Until that day I always longed to have 1 but I couldn't find 1 to adopt" said Mayabella with a sigh.

"You're the best owner I've ever had" said Scrap in a cheerful tone.

"I'm glad you think so" said Mayabella as she & the others continued walking. Soon they arrived at the junkyard.

"Here we are. Can you see anyone else?" asked Scrap in a curious manner.

"No not really" said Mayor Humdinger as he looked around.

"OK. Follow me. I know exactly where we can find what we need" said Scrap as everyone followed him through the junkyard to look for resources. Suddenly they were ambushed by Andy, Julius, Justina & lastly Precious' Owner.

"You're not allowed here intruders" said Andy with a growl.

"What are you talking about Andy?" asked Katie as she tilted her head in confusion.

"This is our territory" said Julius as he scowled.

"I don't know where you got that idea from" said Mayabella with a shrug.

"Silence intruder. You're coming with us" said Justina with bluntness in her voice.

"What if we refuse?" asked Scrap.

"We'll make you come with us" said Precious' Owner in a threatening voice.

"Good luck with that" said Carlana as she scoffed. A cage was then dropped on everyone.

"HEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" cried Mayor Goodway in a panicked tone.

"LET US OUT" yelled Mayor Humdinger in anger.

"You're not going anywhere" said Andy as he, Julius, Justina & Precious' Owner dragged the cage with everyone in it over to where Alex & several other hostages were.

"Who dares to disturb my lair?" asked Alex as he glared at the caged hostages.

"Alex it's us. What's going on?" asked Katie in a confused manner.

"Be quiet. I'm the 1 who gets to ask the questions. What are you doing on our turf?" asked Alex with hostility in his voice.

"We're trying to find resources with which we can use to build a signal tower. We plan on using it to contact the PAW Patrol & those who disappeared with them" said Mayor Goodway.

"Why are you acting like this Alex?" asked Marsha as she raised an eyebrow.

"Now that this town is just a wasteland we're no longer bound by the rules set by others. We can finally be free" said Alex with a confident grin.

"Alex that's not true. Think about what you're doing. What would Ryder think if he saw you doing this?" asked Mayabella.

"I… He'd…" stammered Alex in shock.

"He wouldn't be happy would he?" asked Mayabella as Alex burst into tears.

"Look at what we've become. Ryder would be ashamed to see us act like this. Free the prisoners" said Alex as Andy, Julius, Justina & lastly Precious' Owner freed everyone that'd been captured.

"I'm glad that's over. I was starting to think we'd end up suffering a horrible fate" said Courtney with a sigh of relief.

"It's lucky they came to their senses" said Mr Porter as he nodded in agreement.

"We might as well help you with the signal tower" said Seth.

"Thanks. We'll need all the help we can get. Let's go" said Scrap as everyone continued looking around for resources.

"I'm sorry for my behavior. Ever since things went pear shaped we've all been unsure of how to keep order" said Alex in a regretful voice.

"I think it's put everyone in town on edge" said Katie.

"Where'd the PAW Patrol & their allies go anyways?" asked Gustavo in an uncertain tone.

"We don't know" said Mayor Goodway with a shrug.

"Once we build the signal tower we should be able to find them" said Mayor Humdinger in a confident manner.

"1ST we need to find the right materials" said Tabby as he kept an eye out for the necessary resources.

"With my help we should be able to find what we need" said Scrap as everyone continued walking through the junkyard. Along the way they spotted things like metal poles, electrical wires, support beams & signal sending systems scattered around. A short time later they found everything they needed for the signal tower.

"It shouldn't take long for us to get in contact with the PAW Patrol now that we've got all this stuff" said Mayor Humdinger with a hopeful smile.

"Hopefully we can also get the rest of town fixed up as well" said Tabby.

"Let's get this tower up & running" said Katie as she & the others began piecing the signal tower together. A short time later the tower was complete & functioning perfectly.

"Excellent. Should we try calling Ryder now?" asked Mayor Goodway with a smile.

"We might as well. Hopefully this time the signal will be clearer" said Mayor Humdinger as he called Ryder. Back on Anthropod 12 everyone arrived at Bakeneko High School.

"This is easily 1 of the most interesting school campuses I've ever visited" said Elias in amazement.

"I agree. Is it like a stereotypical high school you see on TV?" asked Kelly in a curious voice.

"Yes pretty much. Suzan's the star athlete here. She's the MVP of the school's Brawlketball team" said Logan in a proud tone.

"Damn straight I am. Nobody can top my athleticism" said Suzan with a confident grin.

"I'm the stud all the girls want. Nobody can resist me" said Monty in a cocky manner.

"Keep dreaming Johnny Bravo" said Suzan as she scoffed in amusement.

"You're just jealous that you can't date me because you're my sister" said Monty with an eye roll.

"Gross. Even if we weren't siblings I wouldn't date you anyway" said Suzan in disgust.

"This happens a lot. I consider myself to be the most level headed of all 3 of us" said Logan with a frustrated sigh.

"I can definitely agree with that" said Ryder as he nodded.

"I hope there aren't any major jerks that attend this school" said Elias.

"Even if there is they'd be stupid to mess with us" said Kelly with confidence in her voice.

"What's Brawlketball?" asked Marshall as he tilted his head in confusion.

"It's a mix between basketball & martial arts. I'm a beast at it" said Suzan with a confident grin.

"I've never heard of it" said Elias as he shook his head.

"You should try it sometime. I bet you'd all love it" said Suzan in an enthusiastic voice.

"We probably would" said Ryder.

"The rules are simple. There are 2 teams of 12 & to score points you either have to knock players on the other team out of the ring or piledrive them through a hoop. Me & my best friend Riley are the best players on our team" said Suzan as she smiled eagerly.

"Yikes. That sounds brutal" said Elias in a surprised tone.

"It's not for the faint of heart" said Suzan.

"You'd need to have balls or breasts of steel to handle the intensity" said Monty with a chuckle.

"Considering what we've had to go through in the past I'm sure we'd get used to it in no time" said Kelly as she confidently smirked.

"Anyways here's Professor Walter's lab" said Suzan as everyone arrived at the lab. Suzan tried to open the door but it was locked.

"Damn it. He's not here" said Suzan as Ryder's Pup Pad began ringing.

"I better see who is calling" said Ryder as he answered the call.

"Hello Ryder here" said Ryder with a professional smile.

"Ryder I'm glad you're OK. Who are you with?" asked Mayor Humdinger in a curious manner.

"I'm with the PAW Patrol, a few others from in & around Adventure Bay & your extended family" said Ryder.

"How'd you get there?" asked Mayor Humdinger with confusion in his voice.

"We don't know" said Ryder as he shrugged.

"We tried to get through to you earlier but the signal was too weak" said Mayor Humdinger with a sigh.

"OK. We tried to find Professor Walter at Bakeneko High School but he's not here. What do we do now?" asked Ryder in an uncertain voice.

"Head back to the mansion. You can use the Reality Shifter to get back to Adventure Bay" said Mayor Humdinger.

"Thanks. See you soon" said Ryder as he hung up.

"We need to use the Reality Shifter to get home" said Ryder.

"What part of the mansion is it in?" asked Elias in a curious tone.

"It's in the briefing room. Let's get going" said Suzan as everyone began the journey back to the mansion. 3 anthropomorphic beings watched them. They were Suzan's arctic fox rival Azuna Hayate, the amphibian/bull/canine hybrid & school bully Jock Dezito & the Siamese/tabby mixed breed feline & queen bee Raven Sekoko.

"If those fools think they're going to get the best of us they're in for a nasty surprise" said Azuna with a devious grin.

"Those triplets are thorns in my side. Kicking their asses will be intensely satisfying" said Jock in a sinister manner.

"We're not going to let them stop Dr Hy Brid from succeeding" said Raven as Azuna, Jock & she followed everyone unnoticed.

"I bet everyone back home will be really happy to see us again" said Elias with excitement in his voice.

"I don't doubt that. Do you think our parents are worried sick?" asked Kelly.

"Probably" said Elias as he nodded in confirmation.

"How do you think everyone else in Adventure Bay is holding up?" asked Ryder in an uncertain voice.

"Hopefully they're all doing OK" said Kenneth.

"I suppose we'll find out soon enough" said Ryder.

"I wish you didn't have to leave so soon" said Suzan with a sad sigh.

"You guys can come with us if you want. You'd love Adventure Bay" said Elias in a reassuring tone.

"There are lots of fantastic people you'd love to meet" said Ryder as he smiled.

"Before we leave Logan, Monty & I will need to gather our stuff" said Suzan.

"I can't wait to see Uncle Horace again" said Logan in an excited manner.

"Me either" said Monty as Azuna, Jock & Raven suddenly appeared.

"Well, well, well if it isn't the whore who stole my arm" said Azuna with a scowl.

"You stole my leg" said Suzan as she rolled her eyes.

"Who are they?" asked Elias.

"Azuna Hayate, Jock Dezito & Raven Sekoko. They're troublemakers from school" said Logan with a frustrated sigh.

"Yet again Pussy Pirate goes & whines like a baby" said Jock with scorn in his voice.

"I'm not a pirate. Get that through your thick canine skull already" said Logan in an annoyed voice.

"You guys are always making us look bad. Today we'll finally put you in your place" said Raven in a harsh tone.

"Keep dreaming darling. You 3 are jealous wannabes who'll never be as good as us" said Monty as Azuna pulled out her icicle daggers.

"Let's do this" said Azuna as she, Jock & Raven ran forward. Suzan grabbed her plasma sword as she engaged Azuna in battle.

"This time I shall kick your ass" said Azuna with an angry growl.

"Once I defeat you I'll bury you 6 feet under" said Suzan as Azuna & herself threw punches, kicks, swings & strikes at each other while simultaneously trying to attack with their blades. After a few minutes of laying into each other with all their strength Suzan appeared to fall unconscious.

"YES I FINALLY DID IT" cried Azuna in an ecstatic manner. Suddenly Suzan blindsided her with a leg sweep before pounding her with punches until she fell unconscious.

"That was satisfying" said Suzan with a smile. Jock attacked Logan with punches & kicks before grabbing him by the throat & lifting him up in the air. Logan gasped for breath as he tried to break free.

"Not so tough now are you?" asked Jock with mockery in his voice. He was then suddenly punched in the crotch causing him to scream in pain & drop to the floor in a fetal position. The punch was delivered by a female anthropomorphic purloin named Zamantha.

"Take this asshole" said Zamantha as she attacked Jock with a rapid series of punches & kicks. Moments later he was knocked unconscious.

"Thanks Zamantha" said Logan in a thankful voice.

"You're welcome" said Zamantha with a smile. Monty advanced on Raven & tried to kiss her.

"Come here sexy" said Monty in a flirtatious tone.

"Get away from me you pervert" said Raven as Monty backed her up against a wall. He then proceeded to wrap his arms around her. Raven squeezed Monty's genitals as hard as she could which made him scream in pain before angrily wrapping his tentacles around her.

"TAKE THIS YOU LITTLE BITCH" yelled Monty as he electrocuted Raven with his tentacles causing her to fall unconscious within seconds.

"It's such a shame she made a poor choice" said Monty with a fake sigh.

"That was epic" said Elias in an amazed manner.

"We showed them who the bosses are" said Suzan with confidence in her voice.

"Looks like I saved your life again Logan" said Zamantha as she chuckled in amusement.

"That was awesome. Jock's such a jerk to me all the time. I wish I could fight him off myself sometimes" said Logan with a frustrated sigh.

"I'd be more than happy to teach you self defense" said Zamantha.

"I'd like that" said Logan as he nodded.

"Logan & Zamantha sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G" said Monty in a teasing voice.

"Shut up Monty" said Logan with a disgusted eye roll.

"Tell her how you feel. I bet she likes you back" said Monty in a reassuring tone.

"I doubt it. Who'd want to date a coward like me?" asked Logan in a sad manner.

"Don't be so hard on yourself. I think you're a great guy. You're pretty cute if I must admit" said Zamantha with a seductive smile.

"You really think so?" asked Logan in surprise.

"I know so" said Zamantha as Logan blushed & giggled nervously.

"Thanks" said Logan with appreciation in his voice.

"You're welcome" said Zamantha in a cheerful voice.

"Who's this Logan?" asked Marshall as he smiled curiously.

"This is my classmate Zamantha Glendale" said Logan.

"Nice to meet you all" said Zamantha as everyone introduced themselves.

"Where are you all from?" asked Zamantha.

"Most of us are from Adventure Bay" said Elias.

"We're trying to get back there now" said Ryder.

"OK. You don't mind if I tag along do you?" asked Zamantha in an uncertain tone.

"No not at all. The more the merrier" said Logan with a smile.

"You're such a gentleman" said Zamantha as she winked at Logan.

"I sure am my lady" said Logan as Zamantha kissed him on the cheek causing him to blush.

"How does it feel knowing you're the only triplet without a lover Monty?" asked Suzan with a taunting smirk.

"Who's your lover?" asked Monty as he scoffed.

"Damien Maximoff. He's a fellow agent of H.E.A.R.T.S" said Suzan in a dreamy manner.

"When did you 2 become a couple?" asked Monty.

"It was quite a while ago" said Suzan.

"Whatever. I bet I'll find someone soon enough" said Monty with confidence in his voice.

"Sure you will" said Suzan as she chuckled.

"Anyways let's get a move on. Everyone in Adventure Bay must be worried sick about these guys" said Logan.

"Good point. Let's go" said Elias as everyone continued heading back to the mansion. As they got close they heard a scream.

"What was that?" asked Ryder in a concerned voice.

"I don't know" said Kenneth as he & the others rushed to where the screams were coming from. They soon came across a female Puppermari named Montana being assaulted by a male anthropomorphic canine named Orwell.

"SOMEONE HELP. I'M BEING RAPED" cried Montana as she tried to fend Orwell off.

"If you make any more noise I'll superglue your mouth shut" said Orwell in a threatening tone.

"HEY GET AWAY FROM HER" yelled Monty in an angry manner.

"Piss off asshole" said Orwell with a scowl of disgust.

"I said back off" said Monty as he growled.

"Don't try to be a hero. It won't do you any good" said Orwell.

"I'll show you" said Monty as he ran at Orwell. Orwell pulled out a gun & shot Monty in the head. Everyone gasped in horror only for Monty to laugh.

"How are you still standing?" asked Orwell with shock in his voice.

"I'm immortal. Nothing can kill me" said Monty as Orwell emptied his gun into him. Monty withstood every shot much to Orwell's dismay. Monty then punched Orwell in the face & electrocuted him with his tentacles knocking him unconscious.

"Good riddance to him. Are you OK?" asked Monty in concern.

"I am thanks to you. You're my hero" said Montana in a grateful voice.

"I'd do anything to save innocent civilians. I'm Monty" said Monty as he extended his hand.

"I'm Montana. Nice to meet you" said Montana as she shook Monty's hand.

"You're really brave. Thanks for rescuing me" said Montana with a smile.

"It's my pleasure. Monty Hinako is always ready to save innocent civilians especially cute girls like you" said Monty as he flexed his muscles. Montana blushed & giggled.

"You're so sweet. Here's a reward for your heroism" said Montana as she kissed Monty. They passionately embraced & locked lips for a few minutes before breaking apart.

"I love you Monty" said Montana in a loving tone.

"I love you too Montana" said Monty with an affectionate smile.

"Now that you 2 have finished falling in love let's get a move on. The sooner we get to the mansion the better" said Suzan as everyone continued heading towards the mansion. Montana went with them.

"I never thought I'd see the day that Monty would fall in love with a girl who loves him back" said Suzan in an impressed manner.

"I told you I'd get lucky 1 of these days. Looks like I was right" said Monty with cockiness in his voice.

"Maybe later we can satisfy each other's desires" said Montana in a seductive voice.

"I'd be glad to" said Monty as everyone continued walking. They soon arrived back at the mansion.

"Let's get our stuff" said Logan as he, Monty & Suzan headed to their rooms & grabbed what they needed. They returned a few minutes later.

"OK we're all set. Let's go" said Suzan as she & the others headed to the briefing room. They spotted a giant metal slingshot inside.

"Is that the Reality Shifter?" asked Elias in a curious tone.

"Correct. You launch yourself through the screen & it'll transport you to where you want to go" said Monty with a nod of confirmation.

"Perfect. Let's do this" said Ryder as everyone took it in turns 1 by 1 using the Reality Shifter. Soon they were all back in Adventure Bay. To their horror it looked extremely run down.

"What happened here?" asked Elias as he looked around in shock.

"I don't know" said Kelly with an uncertain shrug.

"Whoever did this is dead meat" said Ryder in an angry manner.

"Where do you think everyone else is?" asked Elias.

"They're all probably hiding in their homes" said Kelly.

"I hope our parents are OK" said Elias with concern in his voice.

"So do I. Should we check on them?" asked Kelly in curiosity.

"Yes. We need to make sure they're OK" said Elias as everyone headed to Vincent-Walter Manor to check on Ella, Ethan, Harry & Susie.

"It looks like something big happened here" said Ryder as he took note of all the damage that'd been caused.

"Do you think the fire caused it?" asked Kenneth in an uncertain voice.

"I doubt it. Something else must've happened before, during or after the fire was lit" said Ryder.

"Whatever it was it really took its toll on Adventure Bay" said Elias with a gulp.

"I don't remember seeing it so run down" said Kelly as she sighed sadly.

"I don't think any of us do" said Ryder.

"What's the last thing you remember before waking up in Ghastly Gulch?" asked Logan in a curious tone.

"The majority of us were trying to put out a fire that'd been lit in the forest. I'm pretty sure there were drones that flew by us. I'm not sure who was controlling them but that's the last thing I remember before waking up in Ghastly Gulch" said Elias.

"The same thing happened with me & Tracker in the jungle" said Carlos with a nod of agreement.

"Me & Sweetie saw a drone in Barkingburg shortly before we blacked out as well" said the Princess of Barkingburg.

"So did me & Sid. We saw a drone near Adventure Beach" said Arrby.

"Those drones were obviously all part of the same plan. I don't know where they came from or who was operating them but we must stop them before things get worse" said Ryder in a determined manner.

"I'm sure we'll figure it out soon. Anyways let's hurry so we can check on Elias & Kelly's parents" said Zamantha as everyone continued walking. Soon they arrived at the Vincent-Walter mansion which was still in good condition.

"Looks like everything seems to be OK here" said Elias as he & the others walked up to the front door. They then went inside.

"Mum, dad, are you in here?" asked Elias with uncertainty in his voice. There was no answer.

"Silence is never a good sign in these circumstances" said Logan in a nervous voice.

"Is anyone home?" asked Kelly.

"Let's split up & search every room. We'll cover more ground that way" said Suzan.

"Angel, myself, Kelly & Terry can go as 1 group, Carlos, Everest, Jake & Tracker can be another, Arrby, Princess, Sid & Sweetie are the 3RD group, Kenneth, Ryder & the pups are group 4 & the Hinako triplets, Montana & Zamantha make up the last group. Let's do this" said Elias as everyone split into their respective groups & began looking around for Ella, Ethan, Harry & Susie. Angel, Elias, Kelly & Terry searched through the master bedroom & surrounding areas.

"Where do you think they went?" asked Angel in a curious tone.

"I don't know" said Elias with an uncertain shrug.

"Maybe they went looking for us" said Kelly.

"I don't know about that" said Terry.

"What else could've happened to them?" asked Angel as she tilted her head in confusion.

"I hope they weren't attacked or kidnapped" said Elias in a worried manner.

"If they were we'll beat up whoever did it" said Kelly with a growl.

"Nobody messes with us & gets away with it" said Terry as a sound was suddenly heard from the en suite bathroom.

"Did you hear that?" asked Elias.

"It came from the bathroom" said Kelly as she pointed to the bathroom door.

"Maybe they're in there" said Angel with hope in her voice.

"Let's check" said Terry as Angel, Elias, Kelly & himself walked over to the bathroom door. They knocked to see if anyone was inside.

"Who's there?" asked Ella from behind the door.

"It's just us" said Angel in a reassuring voice.

"Where have you guys been?" asked Ethan.

"It's a long story. Are you all OK?" asked Elias in uncertainty.

"Yes. Are you all OK?" asked Harry.

"Yes" said Kelly with a nod.

"Is it safe to come out?" asked Susie as she gulped.

"It sure is" said Terry as Ella, Ethan, Harry & Susie came out of the bathroom.

"I'm glad you guys are OK" said Ella in a relieved tone.

"What happened to Adventure Bay?" asked Ethan as he raised an eyebrow in suspicion.

"We're still trying to figure it out" said Elias with a shrug.

"Whatever's happening right now it doesn't look good" said Harry in a concerned manner.

"What do we do now?" asked Susie.

"Let's regroup with everyone else" said Kelly as Angel, Elias, herself, Terry, Ella, Ethan, Harry & Susie returned to the foyer. Everyone else was still looking around.

"We found them. They were in the en suite bathroom" said Elias as the others regrouped in the foyer.

"Should we go looking for Mayor Humdinger now?" asked Kelly with curiosity in her voice.

"Yes. I can't wait to see him again" said Suzan as she smiled excitedly.

"Let's go" said Elias as everyone left the mansion & went to look for Mayor Humdinger & everyone else with him.

"I can't remember the last time we saw Uncle Horace" said Logan.

"Me either. It's been a while" said Monty with a nod.

"Does he have a lover?" asked Montana.

"Not that I know of" said Suzan as she shook her head.

"What's your last name Montana?" asked Logan in curiosity.

"My last name is Mayfield" said Montana.

"That's a very sexy last name" said Monty in a flirtatious voice.

"Is anything else about me sexy?" said Montana with a seductive smirk.

"Just about everything" said Monty as Montana giggled.

"You're funny" said Montana as she kissed Monty on the cheek.

"Uncle Horace will love you" said Monty in a confident tone.

"I'm sure he will" said Montana with an enthusiastic smile.

"Do you have any siblings?" asked Logan.

"I have a preteen brother named Maxwell & 1ST grade twin siblings named Marla & Moses" said Montana.

"So your parents have 2 daughters & 2 sons correct?" asked Monty with a smile.

"Correct" said Montana as she nodded in confirmation.

"What are they like?" asked Logan.

"They're kind of like you guys in a way. We're like gender swapped versions of you" said Montana with an amused chuckle.

"Awesome" said Monty in an amazed manner.

"Are they the same species as you or different?" asked Elias.

"Maxwell's a human that often presents himself as a feline & Marla & Moses are Calico felines" said Montana.

"They're just like me & Suzan" said Logan with fascination in his voice.

"That's a cool coincidence" said Suzan as she smiled in amazement.

"It sure is" said Monty as everyone continued walking. They soon found Mayor Humdinger, the KCC & everyone else who was with them.

"Hey guys. Good to see you all" said Mayor Humdinger in a cheerful voice.

"Hi Uncle Horace" said Logan in excitement.

"It's been a while" said Monty as he grinned.

"How have you been?" asked Suzan.

"I've been good. How have you been?" asked Mayor Humdinger with a warm smile.

"We've been doing well too" said Suzan.

"I'm glad to hear that" said Mayor Humdinger as he gave Logan, Monty & Suzan a hug.

"So this is your uncle is it?" asked Montana in a curious tone.

"Correct" said Monty with a nod of confirmation.

"Is this a new Hinako sibling?" asked Mayor Humdinger.

"No I'm Monty's girlfriend Montana Mayfield. Nice to meet you" said Montana as Mayor Humdinger & herself shook hands.

"It's like Monty made a female clone of himself" said Mayor Humdinger with an amused chuckle.

"I see what you mean" said Montana as she smiled.

"I see you have new members of the KCC" said Ryder as he motioned to Huntress, Kilimanjaro & Rio.

"I sure do. Alongside Cali our newest members include Huntress, Kilimanjaro & Rio" said Mayor Humdinger in a proud manner.

"Almost all the PAW Patrol pups have kitten versions of themselves" said Everest.

"Pretty much" said Tracker with a nod.

"While you guys were gone we had to deal with some fiendish foes" said Farmer Yumi.

"I can imagine. Who did you have to deal with?" asked Elias in curiosity.

"My rival Futari, the Earl of Barkingburg & their henchmen" said Farmer Yumi.

"I never would've expected the Earl of Barkingburg to be a threat" said Elias with shock in his voice.

"We were all surprised when we found out the truth" said Farmer Yumi.

"I can see why" said Elias.

"What happened to Elizabeth & Henry?" asked Sweetie as she tilted her head in confusion.

"Those poor kittens must be in danger" said the Princess of Barkingburg with a horrified gasp.

"Where do you think they'd be?" asked Elias in an uncertain voice.

"I'll see if I can find them. I'm Rio" said Rio as he smiled confidently.

"It's nice to meet you. What's your role?" asked Elias as he shook Rio's paw.

"I'm the super spy kitten. Time to track down some royal felines" said Rio as he began looking around with his night vision goggles. He soon found Elizabeth & Henry.

"I see them. They're trapped in an abandoned slaughterhouse along with 3 kids & 3 adults" said Rio.

"We better hurry. I don't know what'll happen if we don't save them in time" said the Princess of Barkingburg as everyone headed to the slaughterhouse to rescue the captives.

"Who do you think the other captives are?" asked Courtney.

"I don't know" said Rio with a shrug.

"I hope nobody's planning on slaughtering them & turned into food. That'd be atrocious" said Courtney as she felt a chill down her spine.

"I doubt it'd be a repeat of what Grandma Sugar did" said Seth.

"I hope not. I still have nightmares about it" said Courtney in an uneasy tone.

"You & me both" said Seth with a nod of agreement.

"Who's Grandma Sugar?" asked Rio as he tilted his head in confusion.

"She was an elderly baker that seemed really sweet at 1ST. Her bakery had food that apparently tasted really good. Things quickly went wrong when myself, Mr Porter, Timothy & the Wingnuts were kidnapped by her & held hostage in a factory where she had her food made. We later discovered that she used human organs in her food which came from food industry workers in other towns that she murdered. All the kids were brainwashed with these watch devices into helping her but we managed to break them free from the watches' control. Grandma Sugar tried to run away but she ended up getting shredded into pieces by a giant fan. She's easily 1 of the most evil people I've ever met" said Courtney with a disgusted scowl.

"If Aaron Zandresky is the king of evil people we've met Grandma Sugar is the queen. Nobody else we've met has ever reached the level of depravity those 2 are on" said Elias.

"That's horrifying. I never would've thought anyone would do something that atrocious" said Rio in a shocked manner.

"I'm glad she was stopped. Good riddance to her" said Andy as he sighed in relief.

"Amen to that" said Courtney.

"Who else have you dealt with in the past?" asked Rio with curiosity in his voice.

"You'd be surprised at how many of them we've had to deal with. They include school shooters, cancer bullies, juvenile delinquents, scorned crushes, stalkers, fairy tale monsters, abusive pet owners & nannies, terrorists & much more" said Elias.

"Wow. Sounds like life here is quite a roller coaster ride of ups & downs" said Rio in a fascinated voice.

"That's 1 way of putting it" said Ryder as he chuckled.

"Elias actually killed 1 of the nasty jerks" said Cali.

"Which 1 was it?" asked Rio.

"Cameron Dalton. He forced me into a fight I never wanted to have. When he swung a knife at me I pushed his hand away in self defense & unfortunately it caused the knife to pierce his heart resulting in him bleeding to death almost instantly. I really wish it didn't end up like that. I & the others were fed up with his bad behavior towards everyone else. If he hadn't made things difficult he'd still be alive" said Elias with a sad sigh.

"It's Cameron's own fault. He died because of his own stupidity. There are quite a few people that were done in by their own stupidity including Allan Abner, Faith Myerson & Lindsay Remington. All of them got what they deserved" said Kelly in an unsympathetic tone.

"Were they delinquents as well?" asked Rio in an uncertain manner.

"Allan was a misogynistic jerk that tried to undermine women. I beat him up & showed him the true meaning of girl power. Faith Myerson was a former classmate who had a crush on Ryder & after he rejected her she started guilt tripping him, posted a fake photo online showing Ryder & another boy allegedly engaging in sexual activity & kidnapped Elias, myself & Ryder before torturing us with anything she could find. Ryder tricked her into setting him free by pretending to reciprocate her feelings only to get knocked out by him. After we escaped she was taken into police custody & is now on the Sex Offender Registry for what she did & Lindsay Remington was a pop diva who was a pain in the ass to deal with. She was downright rotten to the core. I ended up shaving her hair off, destroyed her belongings & posted a video of her fighting with another girl online causing her to lose everything. After tearing apart her vocal chords she ran off & hasn't been heard from or seen since" said Kelly.

"Yikes. That's quite a lot of antics to deal with" said Rio with amazement in his voice.

"Those 3 only have themselves to blame for their fates. They brought it on themselves" said Kelly as she shrugged nonchalantly.

"That's what I call karma. Anyways are we getting close to reaching the captives?" asked Janeiro.

"Almost" said Rio.

"Do you think Timmy Boo is in there? I hope he's not" said Courtney in a concerned voice.

"Is that your nickname for Timothy?" asked Elias with a curious smile.

"Yes. His nickname for me is Cuteney" said Courtney in a dreamy tone.

"That's sweet" said Elias.

"When did you 1ST meet him?" asked Cali.

"It was after Andy, I, Noelle & Seth moved into Kelly's old house. Judith & Timothy live next door in Elias' old house. When we 1ST met it felt like a spark had ignited. I had a gut feeling he'd be the perfect lover. Soon after that I got a job at Mr Porter's restaurant alongside Timothy. We've been together ever since" said Courtney in a lovestruck manner.

"Timothy's kind of like an older brother to us" said Andy as he smiled.

"I look up to him as 1" said Seth with fondness in his voice.

"Whenever we're not busy with work or caring for our families we're always hanging out" said Courtney.

"Have you 2 ever made love?" asked Monty in a curious voice.

"We've only done it a few times. We always make sure to use protection so that I don't get pregnant. Having to care for my younger siblings at the age of 16 is quite hard. I'm not ready to have kids of my own yet" said Courtney as she sighed.

"I think of you as a 2ND mother" said Andy in a sweet tone.

"Once you're ready you'll be an excellent mother" said Seth in an encouraging manner.

"Thanks guys" said Courtney as she gave Andy & Seth a hug. A short time later everyone arrived at the slaughterhouse.

"Here we are. How are we going in?" asked Elias in uncertainty.

"It depends on whether there's anyone guarding the captives" said Ryder.

"I can be of assistance" said a voice.

"I recognize that voice" said Sweetie with a gasp.

"Who is it Sweetie?" asked the Princess of Barkingburg as another West Highland Terrier appeared. Sweetie instantly recognized her.

"Hi mum" said Sweetie as she smiled.

"Hello Sweetie. Good to see you again" said Sweetie's mother Sharlene as she gave Sweetie a hug.

"That's your mother?" asked Arrby with curiosity in his voice.

"Correct. She's a top agent from the UK" said Sweetie with a nod of confirmation.

"It's a pleasure to meet you all" said Sharlene as everyone introduced themselves.

"Do you think the captives are being guarded?" asked Elias in an uncertain voice.

"There are some guards near the entrance" said Sharlene.

"I take it we're getting rid of them 1ST correct?" asked Sweetie.

"Correct" said Sharlene as she nodded.

"Perfect. Shall we get to it?" asked Sweetie in an enthusiastic tone.

"You bet" said Sharlene as she & Sweetie snuck over to the front door. They noticed several guards standing by the entrance. Both of them quietly maneuvered over to the guards & attacked with a rapid series of punches, kicks, swings & strikes. The guards tried to fight back but Sharlene & Sweetie were too fast for them. 1 by 1 the guards were knocked unconscious until they'd all been dealt with.

"Nice work Sweetie. You've come a long way in your training" said Sharlene in an impressed manner.

"I sure have" said Sweetie with a proud smile.

"Let's get the hostages free" said Sharlene as she & Sweetie signaled for everyone to join them indicating that the coast was clear. They then busted down the door & began looking around.

"Can you see anyone?" asked Sweetie as she looked for any sign of hostages.

"Not yet" said Sharlene.

"Hello? Is anyone there?" asked Elias as everyone continued looking around. Suddenly they heard muffled voices.

"That must be them" said Ryder.

"Let's see where the voices are coming from" said Sharlene as she & the others followed the sounds of the muffled voices trying to pinpoint where the captives were.

"Is anyone in here?" asked Ryder in uncertainty.

"Ryder is that you?" asked Ace as she listened through the door of the room she & the others were trapped in.

"Get us out of here" said Danny as he banged on the door.

"We're coming" said Elias as everyone tracked the banging & voices to a giant metal door.

"It looks like they're in here. How do we get them out?" asked Elias in a confused voice.

"My katanas can handle this. Watch" said Suzan as she switched the elemental power on her katanas from electricity to fire.

"That's cool" said Elias in an amazed tone.

"Check this out" said Suzan as she began cutting through the door with her katanas. A few seconds later the door fell apart from the heat that the katanas gave off.

"There we go. Now the captives are free" said Suzan as Ace, Danny, Elizabeth, Henry, Judith, Miss Spearwood, Timothy & Virginia emerged from the room.

"I was starting to think we'd never escape" said Elizabeth in a relieved manner.

"I probably would've gone insane if we were stuck in there any longer" said Henry with an amused chuckle.

"I didn't know you 2 could talk" said the Princess of Barkingburg with surprise in her voice.

"We sure can" said Elizabeth as she smiled.

"Good to see you again Princess" said Henry as Elizabeth & himself gave the Princess of Barkingburg a hug.

"It's such a relief to be free" said Miss Spearwood.

"I agree. That was 1 of the scariest things I've ever experienced" said Virginia with a shudder.

"You & me both" said Judith as she nodded in agreement.

"What do we do now?" asked Timothy in an uncertain voice.

"Let's go see if the Lookout's still standing" said Ryder.

"Off we go" said Elias as everyone headed back to the Lookout.

"What happened here while we were gone?" asked Ryder in confusion.

"Aside from the forest fire the ocean was drained, the water tower was destroyed, the Earl of Barkingburg disguised himself as Mayor Humdinger & kidnapped Cali & the group we just rescued & extensive damage was caused throughout town" said Katie.

"There's no way 1 person did all of that. I bet it's a group of people working together" said Elias with a growl.

"I'm not sure who it was but the sooner we find & stop them the better" said Ryder in a determined tone.

"At least I'll never get wet again" said Rocky as he smiled in relief. Nikita & the Turbot cousins then arrived.

"Finally you're all back" said Francois in a cheerful manner.

"We were starting to wonder where you all went" said Captain Turbot.

"It's a relief to have us all back together again" said Nikita with a smile.

"Where were you guys?" asked Rocky.

"Until now we were at the lighthouse" said Francois.

"We came to make sure you were all OK" said Captain Turbot.

"By the looks of things you are" said Nikita with satisfaction in her voice.

"All is well. Hopefully soon we'll find the culprits responsible for all this" said Elias as he scowled in disgust.

"I'm just glad I'll never get wet again" said Rocky in a relieved voice.

"Speak for yourself. Now I can't go swimming at the beach anymore" said Zuma with a sad sigh.

"To each their own" said Rocky in a nonchalant tone.

"Hey Monty want to have some fun?" asked Montana in a flirtatious manner.

"Let's wait until we get back to the Lookout" said Monty.

"That's fine with me" said Montana as she giggled.

"I hope it's not badly damaged" said Ryder with a nervous gulp.

"We'll find out soon enough" said Elias as everyone continued walking. When they reached the Lookout they were shocked to see that the top half was completely destroyed.

"OH NO" cried Ryder in horror.

"Looks like this place was hit pretty hard" said Elias as he dropped his jaw in shock.

"I'll crush the jerks that did this" said Chase with anger in his voice.

"Who could've done it?" asked Monty as he tilted his head in confusion.

"It was probably either the Earl of Barkingburg or 1 of his allies" said Elias.

"When I get my hands on whoever's responsible I'll break them into 1,000,000's of pieces" said Ryder as he clenched his fists in anger. Elias then noticed what appeared to be white fur & feather strands on the ground.

"I wonder where that came from" said Elias in a curious voice.

"Maybe it's from the culprits" said Ryder.

"Perhaps we can scan it for DNA identification" said Chase.

"Good idea. Does anyone have a DNA scanner?" asked Ryder.

"I do" said Zamantha with a smile.

"Perfect. Let's see who these strands belong to" said Ryder as Zamantha retrieved her DNA scanner. She then scanned the strands to figure out who they belonged to.

"What's the result?" asked Rocky.

"According to the DNA the culprits are Mydnyte & Sara" said Zamantha in a confident tone.

"No not them. Why did it have to be my brother & sister?" asked Sweetie as everyone gasped in shock.

"I didn't know you had siblings" said the Princess of Barkingburg in a surprised manner.

"They're bad news. I have a feeling they're working with others to cause chaos & mass hysteria" said Sweetie with a nervous gulp.

"Are they West Highland Terriers as well?" asked Elias with uncertainty in his voice.

"Their DNA is also mixed with moths & other winged insects" said Sweetie.

"That's very odd" said the Princess of Barkingburg.

"Who would've created them?" asked Sharlene in a confused voice.

"If they're Sweetie's siblings wouldn't they be your kids?" asked Elias as he raised an eyebrow.

"I don't ever remember giving birth to them" said Sharlene.

"Do you know who their father is?" asked Elias in curiosity.

"Well… About that…" said Sharlene in a nervous tone.

"Something tells me it's not a happy story" said Elias in an uneasy tone.

"It isn't" said Sharlene as she shook her head.

"What happened?" asked Sweetie in a concerned manner.

"The truth is… Well…" stammered Sharlene as she began to sweat.

"You can trust us. We won't laugh or be mean" said Sweetie with reassurance in her voice.

"I WAS RAPED" cried Sharlene as everyone gasped in horror. Sharlene then burst into tears.

"Is that true?" asked Sweetie in disbelief.

"Yes. I've always been scared to admit it" said Sharlene with tears running down her face.

"You're very brave Sharlene. Both I & Kelly can relate to what you went through. It happened to us as well" said Elias as he gave Sharlene a hug.

"Do you remember who it was?" asked Kelly.

"Jack The Rapist. He's a black furred West Highland Terrier that's still at large. Ever since it happened I've not seen him & I hope never to see him again" said Sharlene with an angry growl. Sweetie gave her a hug.

"I'm really sorry mum" said Sweetie in a sympathetic voice.

"It's OK. It wasn't your fault. It was mine" said Sharlene in a guilty tone.

"No it wasn't. Rape is never the victim's fault. Don't let yourself believe that" said Elias.

"You never asked for it. Jack had no right to assault you like that" said Kelly with a disgusted scowl.

"I should've avoided putting myself in that position" said Sharlene.

"Don't be so hard on yourself. You're a strong pup. I know you can stand tall & show that sicko that he didn't break you. We all have your back" said Sweetie in a reassuring manner.

"Thanks Sweetie. I love you" said Sharlene with a grateful smile.

"I love you too" said Sweetie.

"Where do you think Mydnyte & Sara are now?" asked Elias.

"I don't know. They could be anywhere" said Sweetie as she shrugged in uncertainty.

"Before we go looking for them we should restore the Lookout" said Zamantha.

"Good idea. It's not going to be easy" said Ryder with a sigh.

"With our combined efforts we'll make it look bigger & better than before" said Elias as everyone got to work on repairs. Meanwhile Dr Hy Brid scolded Azuna, Jock & Raven for their failure.

"You 3 were slaughtered like lambs" said Dr Hy Brid with disgust in her voice.

"It's not my fault that Suzan faked me out" said Azuna as she rolled her eyes.

"I only got beaten because Logan's whore of a girlfriend landed a cheap shot on me" said Jock in a bitter voice.

"Monty's a sleazebag. I'd never let him inside me" said Raven with a scoff.

"I don't care about your excuses. You failed so now you must be punished" said Dr Hy Brid as she sedated Azuna, Jock & Raven before putting them in cages.

"My minions aren't as strong as I thought. It's not over yet though. Soon I'll destroy the PAW Patrol & all their allies" said Dr Hy Brid as she laughed evilly.
