Chapter 24: What Is Forgiveness?
Everyone in the room looked at each other in shock
"What was that?!" Anna yelled over the roaring over the wind
"I Don't know!" Silvex said,
Chase, followed by Ryder ran out the room
Ryder peeped around the door "Wait here, we'll check" He said closing the door to stop the wind "Come on Chase"
"Coming Ryder sir" Chase yelled almost getting blown over but Ryder picked him up "Thanks"
"Ryder!" Selena yelled running over to them "A tree fell into the building, it's shattered a window!"
Ryder looked at her "We need to secure it, Selena can you go get the rest of my pups?"
"Sure!" Selena said running past them she opened the door, then quickly closed it behind her "It's like a hurricane in the building" she said looking at Silvex
"Heh, your telling me." Silvex said "What do you need Ma'am?"
"A tree has fallen into the building, it's broken a window Ryder said he needs help to secure it" Selena said "However, Silvex I know you want to help but I can't allow you, as a member of my group your safety is in my hands"
"Understood Ma'am." Silvex responded
Wendy lied up aganst Rocky and softly said "a tree fell into my building o god" tears started to run down Wendys face "im going to loss everything in this storm dam it then I will have to rebuild from ground up again and get all my supplies back" wendy broke down in tears
"Not if we can get the window secure Wendy" Selena sighed "Kevin is going to kill me for this, Silvex you have my permission to aid Ryder and Chase"
"Please silvex help them safe my building" Wendy still had tears falling down her face
Silvex nodded. "Will do Ma'am." He said, walking out the door, and closing it behind him.
Ryder placed Chase on the ground "Come on, Chase we need to repair that window"
"But Ryder, I'm not good at repairing things, Rocky is" Chase struggled against the wind
"I know, but Rocky can't help and is in no condition to help" Ryder sighed "It's up to us"
Chase nodded but was blown backwards falling into Silvex
"Gotcha! You're not alone," Silvex said
"Silvex? What are you doing here?" Ryder asked looking down at him "You good pup?"
"I'm fine Ryder sir, thanks Silvex" Chase smiled standing up
"Selena gave me permission to lend you a hand," Silvex replied
Ryder nodded "Right, then the window is in here" he said walking into a room but was blown backwards, he grabbed hold of the door frame and pulled himself in "Be careful pups, the wind is strong in here" he warned "Here Chase" he threw Chase's police pup pack at him
"Thanks Ryder!" Chase said trying to get in it, only to fall over
"Need a paw?" Silvex offered, standing strong in the wind.
"How are you not even being blown over?" Chase questioned "Wait, never mind Gate Keeper"
"What was that Chase?" Ryder yelled out over the near window
Chase gulped "Oops, nothing Ryder sir I'm getting in my gear"
"Ok, make it fast" Ryder replied looking at the damage
"Well then?" Silvex asked
Chase blushed but nodded, before he was blown over "This wind..."
Silvex stood in the Direction of the wind, and it stopped blowing all over Chase, making it easier to get into his gear.
Within seconds Chase was in his pup pack "All set, thanks Silvex"
Silvex nodded, and the wind resumed. "Lets go help Ryder, shall we?"
"Wait!" Everest said behind them, in her gear "I can help"
Silvex nodded. "The more, the merrier."
Ryder looked at the window "We really need Rocky" he sighed
"Ryder sir, he can't" Chase said struggling into the room, followed by Silvex and Everest
"I know Chase" Ryder sighed then took a deep breath "Alright, Chase see if you can find something to put up at the window, Everest use your grappling hook around this branch and see if we can snap it, Silvex I need you to find something we can use to keep whatever Chase finds at the window"
"Chase is on the case!" Chase said running out the wind
Everest nodded "Ice or Snow! I'm ready to go! Ruff! Grappling hook!" she aimed it at the branch
Silvex looked around for something that could help
Some crash noises could be heard in the room next to them, followed but a yelp
"Who's there?" Silvex asked, walking in and looking around
"AHHH!" Ally jumped "You scared me!" she said trapped under a table
"Ally? What are you doing?" Silvex asked
Ally giggled "Oh nothing just chilling under this table, I heard a crash noise in Building B come from here so I decided to come see"
Silvex sighed. "You sure your allowed to do that?"
"Probably not" Ally replied "But Rocky is in this building, and I know the pups here don't like him but I do, I want to help"
"A window was broken, and I need something that can help an object stay so it prevents the wind from blowing in. Something live glue, or nails, or tape, something like that." SIlvex said. 'Although i could fix that issue with my powers, I should keep it realistic to avoid drawing attention.' he thought
Ally thought for a moment "There's some nails in that cupboard" she pointed behind him to a metal cupboard which had fallen over in the wind
Silvex walked over and looked in it and spotted the Nails. "Thanks Ally. You know I'll have to tell Selena about you being here,"
"Well Kevin is my owner" Ally smiled pushing the table off of her "I'm meant to be undercover, keeping an eye on the group then I report back to him"
"Oh?" Silvex said, smirking a bit.
"Don't tell anyone though" Ally said standing up
"I won't." Silvex said, taking the Nails back to Ryder
Chase was having issues trying to pull the legs off of a large table, he was planning on using to put over the broken window "Come on! Stupid thing!" he yelled
"I think Chase is having issues" Ryder giggled hearing Chase yell over the wind, as Silvex came in
"Got anything to put on the Window? I found some nails to hold them in place," Silvex said
Ryder shook his head helping Everest trying to break the tree branch "I think Chase has found something, mind seeing if he needs a hand?"
Silvex nodded and walked to where Chase was. "Chase? You there?"
"Silvex?" Chase said pulling on a leg of a table, he heard a crack noise "Uh oh..." the leg broke sending Chase backwards into Silvex then into a wall
Silvex held Chase as he took all of the pain from the impact
"Sorry, you ok?" Chase asked rubbing his own head
"Doing well! You forget Pain doesn't effect me easily." Silvex said
Chase got off of him "Yeah I forgot" he blushed walking back to the table, and trying to remove another leg
"Let me try Chase," Silvex offered.
"I got it" Chase said, pulling on the leg, but slipped then fell on his back "I don't got it" he sighed
"Doing well! You forget Pain doesn't effect me easily." Silvex said
Chase got off of him "Yeah I forgot" he blushed walking back to the table, and trying to remove another leg
"Let me try Chase," Silvex offered.
"I got it" Chase said, pulling on the leg, but slipped then fell on his back "I don't got it" he sighed
Silvex walked out, and with great strength, pulled the leg off with aloud CRACK!
"Show off" Chase mumbled getting to his paws
"Hey, I'm not even using my Powers. I'm just that strong, from training myself." Silvex said
Chase rolled his eyes before picking up the large table top
Silvex giggled and helped Chase
They carried the table top out of the room, but once they got into the hallway the wind began pushing the table backwards "Well I didn't fully think this plan through!" Chase yelled over the wind
Silvex began to pull the table through the wind
"Again showing off" Chase said sighing
"It's called helping, i could just let go and send you flying in the winds if thats what you want," Silvex said
"No no im good" Chase giggled "Thanks"
Silvex nodded and helped Chase pull the tabletop to where Ryder was with the broken Window.
"Great work Chase!" Ryder smiles "You too Silvex"
Silvex nodded
"Now lets get this tree out the way" As Ryder said this the tree branch snapped and a part of it was airborne and flew directly Chase "Chase!" Everest yelled out "Look out!"
Silvex, out of instinct again, Rammed Chase out of the way, and to his surprise, the branch stabbed through his right hind leg. Scarlet blood flew everywhere.
"Silvex!" Chase yelled "Your leg! I thought you said you cant get hurt" "What?" Both Ryder and Everest said together at the same time
"Aaugghh!" Silvex said, falling to the ground.
"Chase, Everest you two finish here, be careful, I'm taking him to Wendy" Ryder said picking Silvex up
Silvex moaned in pain as more blood leak out of the wound
Ryder quickly took Silvex back into the other room "Wendy! Silvex needs you" he said taking Silvex over to her "You'll be ok Silvex" Ryder said worried
"I'll be... Fine," Silvex said.
Wendy looked at Silvexs leg "o my god this is bad very bad im going to need to work quickly on this before he losses to much blood" wendy slowly walked over to Silvex "I have to pull it out which will hurt like hell Silvex I can give you some pain relief before I do but"
"Just... do it!" Silvex said,
Wendy pulled the branch out of Silvexs leg then bandaged his leg up quickly "thats going to take awhile to heal so try to stay off the leg" Rocky knew without Silvex, Ryder couldn't fix the window, he jumped down off his bed and ran out the door faster then he'd ever ran before "Rocky!" Skye yelled "come back!"
But Rocky was gone
Silvex huffed. "He'll get himself... into more trouble at this rate!'
Ryder sighed "I'll get him" he said running out "Silvex your in no shape to help, stay here"
"Wendy, I think it's best I move Marshall and Silvex into another room, it's getting to dangerous for them in here" Anna said pushing Silvex on a bed into a small room "Wendy stay here ready for when Ryder returns with Rocky"
"he ran away even when I was in the room he should feel safe around me so why would he run away i'm suppose to be his mate" Wendy looked at Anna "ok I will stay here even though I think I should go out and get him"
"Yeah, go get him Wendy" Sunset smiled at her "I will wait here"
Wendy smiled at sunset "thank you" She ran out the door and joined Rocky in the other room "hey Rocky im here to keep you safe"
Anna took Marshall in the same room as Silvex "Will you two be ok in here?" she asked pushing Marshall's bed next to Silvex
Silvex was breathing hard, and did not respond
"Silvex?" Marshall said half asleep "Are you ok?"
"Keep an eye on him Marshall, if you need something call out" Anna said closing the door
Silvex was still breathing heavily, his heart beat slowing down as his entire body began to shut down
Marshall attempted to jump across to Silvex, knowing something wasn't right but fell off his bed, before his vision faded the last thing he saw was the room light up
A loud Howling could be heard from the room as the ground shook mildly.
"What was that?" Sunset said eyeballing the door into Marshall's and Silvex's room
Anna shrugged "The storm? maybe?"
"No, it wasn't the storm" Sunset ran opening the door up
Both Anna and Sunset stopped at the door as a bright light faded
"What's going on in here?!" Anna said looking into the room
"I uhhh... Damnit!" Silvex's eyes flashed white as he Froze Sunset and Anna
Moans were heard from the floor
Silvex gave Anna and Sunset minor cases of amnesia as he looked down at the Floor. "Marshall?"
Marshall moaned something about cookies "..." he said opening in his eyes
Silvex made Anna and Sunset faint for a few seconds as he hoped down and looked over himself. The wound was gone, and his body was fine. 'Geez, never accept Anti-bodies from her again,' He thought as he looked at Marshall. "Are you alright?"
"I'm ok..." Marshall replied trying to sit up forgetting about his paw "Ouch!" he looked at Silvex "You ok?
"Just regenerated, I do that when i 'die', You sure You don't want me to at least heal your paw slightly?" Silvex asked
"I told you, i don't want you healing me, but something for the pain be nice" Marshall said moaning
Silvex glowed silver and numbed some of his pain "Almost blew my cover there, Sunset and Anna should wake up any second now,"
Marshall was able to sit up "Thanks Silvex, um your leg is healed what will you tell them?" he asked
"...why do things always prove difficult for me?" Silvex said
"I got you covered" Marshall smiled pulling a bandage off a table "Wrap your leg with that"
Silvex used his powers to quickly wrap up his leg that once had the wound. "Good thinking."
"What happened?" Sunset and Anna said at the same time
"Lightning hit just outside, it knocked you both out, including me" Marshall said on the floor
Anna touched her head "Right, you both ok?"
"Just a leg injury. It's a minor one, it'll be fine soon." Silvex said
"How did you get on the floor?" Sunset asked walking up to them
Marshall shrugged pretending he didn't know "Guess from the lightning blast"
"Chase! Where is he?!" Silvex asked
"In the other room, with Everest and Ryder" Anna said picking Marshall up and placing him on the bed "Rocky's in there too"
"Oh, okay then. And the window? Did Ryder fix it?" Silvex asked
Sunset shrugged "Don't know, we were too busy with you"
"You need to rest that leg" Anna said to Silvex examining Marshall's paw
"I'm fine. I don't need any antibodies in the future, alright?" Silvex got up and walked to the door
Anna and Sunset nodded
Rocky just arrived at the room with, Chase, Everest and Ryder
Chase was surprised to see Rocky in at the door way "What are you doing here?"
Rocky said nothing and pushed Chase out the way the grabbed the table top from Ryder
"Rocky stop..." Everest sighed "You're already hurt, you could hurt yourself more"
"Why should you care?" Rocky snapped at her "You would be happy if this fell on me and killed me"
Wendy ran into the room with Rocky, Everest, Chase and Ryder "hey Rocky im here to keep you safe"
"No one is gonna die on my watch." Silvex said, walking in.
Rocky turned and smiled at Wendy, as a big gust of wind blew the table, he struggled to keep it upright
"Rocky! Move!' Ryder yelled to him "Get away from the table!"
"No" Rocky shook his head trying to hold the table up "If this kills me, they would get what they want"
"We don't want you dead" Chase looked at him
"Lair" Rocky let go off the table
Chase ran fast and pushed Rocky out of the way as the table fell
"CHASE!" Ryder screamed out running towards the falling table
