A/N: And finally, here it is. Despite being a little short, the final chapter of this story is here. Since I already started my third story, my forth one will come soon. Anyway, read, review and enjoy.

CHAPTER 7: AVALANCHE'S FATE


A few hours later, Avalanche walked into Jake's room and noticed Everest, still sleeping. Her daughter had been unconscious ever since they dug her out of the snow. She still was in complete shock about what just happened.

I can't believe this. First she drives, then she climbs mountains, then she gets buried in snow and now I find out that Jake has been taking care of her. What happened to my daughter all those years ago? She thought, trying to understand everything that has happened. A few minutes later, Jake comes in.

"Avalanche, you okay?" He asked.

"Yeah, I'm okay." Avalanche said. Jake knew what was really bothering her and walked over to her.

"She'll be fine." He reassured.

"I know, but I just can't help it. My motherly instincts are sometimes too strong."

Then, Ryder comes in.

"Avalanche, I need to talk to you. Alone." He replied. As soon as Jake walked out, Ryder knelt down and motioned for Avalanche to come closer.

"After I heard what you did when Skye was injured, I need to ask you something." Avalanche got a little nervous. "Would you like to be a part of the PAW Patrol as our new EMT?" Ryder asked.

Avalanche's ears perked up upon hearing the question. Her tail wagged a little as she asked, "Really? You would do that?"

Ryder nodded. "Of course. Besides, your medical skills would be handy here on the mountain and Marshall could teach you how to use your gear."

Avalanche wanted to scream in joy. Ryder was offering her a job? Her tail wagged like crazy as she tackled him to the ground, licking his face furiously.

"Whoa! Avalanche! Hahahaha! That tickles! Hahahaha!" Ryder laughed while being licked by the husky.

"Thank you, Ryder! This means so much to me!" Avalanche exclaimed as she jumped off of him and smiled, wagging her tail.

"Anytime." Ryder replied as he placed a dog tag with a blue medical cross on it before leaving the room. As soon as he left, Avalanche heard moaning. She turned to see Everest waking up.

"Wh-what happened? Where am I?" Everest asked.

Avalanche quickly got the rest of the family to come over and join her. As soon as Everest's vision was normal, she looked at her family with a smile. Frostbite hugged her first.

"Good to see you awake, sis. For a second, I thought you weren't going to wake up." She replied.

"Yeah. Sorry I worried you all. I just can't help myself if Jake is in danger." Everest replied. Avalanche approached her next.

"I was worried sick about you. I even nearly got a heart attack when that avalanche buried you. Please, don't scare me like that again." She pleaded.

"I can't make a promise if I can't keep it, mom." Everest giggled.

"Oh, and Ryder offered me a job." Avalanche replied, waiting for Everest's reaction.

"Really?! That means we'll be working together?" Everest asked excitedly.

"Yeah. Wait, WHAT?!" Avalanche asked in confusion.

Everest then explained everything about the PAW Patrol and her position. Her family was amazed.

"A mountain rescue pup? When did you get that job, sweetheart?" Avalanche asked.

"I've been doing that job ever since I saved Jake twice back in the South pole." Everest answered.

Snow and Avalanche's jaws dropped in shock. Their daughter was at the South pole? Snow then looked over at Frostbite and noticed she didn't have the same expression on her face as he and Avalanche did.

"You already know that?" He asked, earning a nod from Frostbite.

"Well, c'mon. We better go and see where we could sleep." Avalanche said before all three of them walked out. A few minutes later, Marshall came into the room and approached Everest.

"How are you, Everest?" He asked.

"I'm fine, thanks for asking." Everest replied with a smile.

"Good. I didn't know you had a family." Marshall said.

"I know. I never told you guys because I thought I was the only one left in my family. But now it seems they're alive." Everest looked down upon saying that. Marshall then used his right paw to lift the husky's head so he could look into her eyes.

"The most important thing is that they're here. Don't worry about that." He said as he licked her nose.

Everest giggled a little at the feeling. "Thanks. Do you think we should tell them?" She asked.

"About us being together? Only when the time comes. Right now, let's keep this between us."

Everest nodded. "Okay. Now, let's join the others." She suggested.

"Sure." Marshall replied as he ran and Everest ran out.

That night, everyone slept with Everest in the living room of the cabin since Everest's pup-house was too small. Avalanche was having a smile on her face as she slept, knowing Everest was safe and sound.
