Chapter 4: New friends

Hello, alvinnascar5 here. Here's chapter 4 of The Pup High in the Skye! Enjoy!

The next morning, Skye was in the Lookout, eating her breakfast. A few minutes Ryder got a call from Mayor Goodway to come into town to help take care of some things,

and he had to take Chase, Marshall, and Rocky with him, so he gave Zuma the task of looking after Skye while he was gone.

"Hello. I'm Zuma." said Zuma. "Hi. Nice to meet you, Zuma." said Skye. Zuma immediately could tell she was bored.

"Bored, huh?" asked Zuma. "Yep." said Skye. "Well, we can fix that. Follow me." said Zuma as he led Skye to the TV.

"You like dancing?" asked Zuma. "I used to do it all the time with my mommy, Jet, and Finn." said Skye. "Well then, we have the pewfect dancing game fow you: Pup-Pup

Boogie!" said Zuma as he got out two dance pads and started up the game.

"Pup-Pup Boogie?" asked Skye. "Yep. What you do is you wepeat the dance pattewn on the scween and wack up as many points as you can." said Zuma. "Why do you talk like

that?" asked Skye. "Speech impediment. Sometimes, I can't pwonounce my "R"s wight. Like that." said Zuma. "I see." said Skye. "It's not a big deal, weally. I don't let it

affect me." said Zuma. Then, the game started.

"I'll do a demonstwation fow you, and then, it's your tuwn. Hewe we go!" said Zuma as he jumped onto one of the pads and started dancing. Skye was impressed by Zuma's

dance moves.

"Whoa! How can you do all those moves so quickly?" asked Skye. "I watched how Mawshall moved, so I copied his moves as he danced. Hewe comes the tail spin!" said Zuma

as he performed the tail spin.

"Look out!" said Zuma. As Zuma headed towards Skye, Skye flipped into the air as Zuma slid to a stop like a baseball player, and landed on the other pad! Zuma was stunned

at what Skye just did.

"WHOA! That was incredible, Skye! How did you do that?!" asked Zuma in shock. "I watch my favorite stunt pilot, Ace Sorenson, do that all the time when she does her

famous walk-and-roll trick." said Skye as she gave the game a try. But she was struggling with the moves.

"Ugh! I keep messing up! How do I do it?" asked Skye. "Try saying the moves out loud. Front paw, front. Back paw, side. Try that." said Zuma. "Okay. Front paw, front. Back

paw, side." Skye repeated. As she kept repeating the moves to herself, she started gaining up on Zuma's score!

"I'm doing it, Zuma! I'm doing it!" said Skye as Zuma got back onto the other dance pad and resumed dancing. "Atta girl, Skye! Keep it going!" said Zuma. "TAIL SPIN!" said

the two pups as they performed the spin. They both crashed into each other, but laughed it off and saw the final score.

"You won! You beat me!" said Zuma. "Yay! I won!" said Skye as she did a flip. She then went back to her bed and laid down.

"Phew! That was tiring. I need a rest. And a drink." said Skye as she drank some water. "Thanks, Zuma. That was fun." said Skye as she yawned while Zuma put the game

away. "You'we welcome, Skye. You can rest for a while. Don't want you to get TOO tiwed." said Zuma. "Thanks." said Skye as she fell asleep. Zuma knew he couldn't leave

the Lookout unless Skye was with her, so he laid down on a pillow next to her and took a nap too. At that time, Ryder, Chase, Marshall, and Rocky returned. Chase, Marshall,

and Rocky walked past the Lookout and saw the two pups asleep.

"Awww. Skye looks so cute when she's asleep." Chase said to himself. "Someone's in love! You like her!" teased Marshall. "Knock it off, Marshall." said Chase. "You just said

she was cute." said Marshall. "Marshall, I'm warning you…" said Chase. "Chase and Skye, sitting in a pup house. K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" sang Marshall. "Okay! That's it!" said Chase

as he pounced on Marshall, resulting in a wrestling match between the two pups.

"What the-?" said Skye as she yawned, waking up from her peaceful nap as Zuma copied.

"Uh-oh. Sounds like Chase and Mawshall awe at it again." said Zuma as he went outside. Skye followed him, of course.

"Okay. Who stawted it this time?" asked Zuma. "He called Skye cute." said Marshall as he pointed at Chase. Skye's eyes widened.

"He…he thinks I'm…cute." said Skye to herself. "Zuma? Where is she?" asked Marshall. "I'm here." said Skye, still hiding behind Zuma. "It's okay. Don't be shy. You can come

out. We won't hurt you." said Marshall. "He thinks I'm cute?" asked Skye in a shy voice as she looked at the ground and moved her front paw nervously. "Sorry for the rude

welcome. My name is Chase." said Chase. "Hi, Chase." said Skye. "And I'm Rocky." said Rocky as he slowly stepped forward. "Hi." said Skye. "Do you want to come play with

us?" asked Chase. "Y…you want me to play with you?" asked Skye. "Of course we want you to play with us. We like making new friends. And now we have another one. You!"

said Chase. "You all consider me your friend?" asked Skye. "Of course you're our friend. So what do you say, Skye? Want to join our games?" asked Rocky. Skye then

remembered what her mom told her: "Remember to interact with them in their games and activities. You'll gain many more friends that way."

"Skye?" asked Zuma. "Tickle fight!" said Skye as she tickled Rocky's belly.

"Oh no! Not the tickle spot! Hehehehehehe! Oooh, that tickles!" laughed Rocky. "Try to catch me, pups!" said Skye as she and the other pups started chasing each other.

Rocky caught Skye.

"Got you!" said Rocky as he tickled Skye's belly, earning happy laughs from the Cockapoo. Then, Ryder called.

"PAW Patrol, to the Lookout!" said Ryder's voice from Chase, Marshall, Rocky, and Zuma's pup-tags.

"Ryder needs us!" said the other pups.

"Awww! We were having so much fun!" said Skye. "We have a job to do." said Marshall. "Jobs?" asked Skye. "Yep! We're the PAW Patrol." said Chase. "Each of us have a

special job that we're really good at. Whoa!" said Marshall as he and Skye slid into the elevator.

"I'm good at fighting fires. Not really good at getting into elevators smoothly." said Marshall, earning laughs from the other pups as the elevator rose. After pups went past the

halfway point, Skye's smile widened.

"Whoa. This is amazing." said Skye.

Well, looks like Skye took her mom's advice. Next chapter will be the finale! Will Skye regain her excitement and ability for flying? Who will need rescuing?
