Chapter 13: Meadow Brooke

A couple weeks later everything has gone back to normal. Chase's paw healed up and ow he can walk on it. Days have gone by and now it is Meadow's due date but there was still no sign of her coming. That night Skye was laying on the bed when Chase came into the room.

"Wow that was really tough. Those three have so much energy it's crazy." He said walking over and laying down.

"Yeah that is why I had you put them to bed. So now you know how I felt when you were in the coma." Skye said.

"I know and I'm sorry. I had to protect Chloe."

" Hey it's okay. In fact I can't stay mad at you. Cause that's why I love you. You are willing to do your best no matter what you do." She said licking his cheek.

"And that's why I love you."

"How so."

"You can't stay mad at anyone not even with what Jacob had done."

"Yeah that made me upset. But luckily I have a wonderful husband that was there with me." She said as she gave him a quick kiss. "So did they finally get to sleep?"

" I don't know. I had to get your mom to get them to calm down and go to sleep. She is taking care of them."

"Okay."

"So are you ready to go to sleep?" Chase asked.

"Uh, yeah cause with this sickness I am ready to do nothing but sleep to my hearts content." Skye said as Chase laughed a little.

"Okay I just have one more thing to say then we can go to sleep. Goodnight beautiful." He said as she giggled and then answered.

"Goodnight handsome." She said as they kissed each other. When they broke apart, Chase turned off the lights and they laid down. But not even two minutes after the lights turned off it happened. "Chase."

"Yeah."

"I think Meadow has decided to have a change of mind."

"What?!" Chase asked as he turned on the lights and saw Skye looking like she was in pain. "Okay just stay calm. Breathe. I'm going to call Katie and let her know." Chase said as he held her paw trying to keep her calm.

"Please hurry."

Over at Ryder's room he and Katie were talking and having a good time.

"Yeah." Katie said laughing. After a minute she calmed down. "Hey Ryder."

"Yeah."

"I am glad we're getting married."

"Me too. So when do you want to tell everyone."

" I don't know. Maybe after Meadow is born. So that way we don't take away from their joy."

"Yeah." At that time a call came on Katie's phone. Putting up to her ear she answered it.

"Hello this is Katie."

"Katie! We need your help!" Chase exclaimed.

"Chase what's wrong?" She asked getting up.

"Skye thinks that Meadow has decided to come."

"What! Okay I'm coming. Just try to keep her calm. And Skye do you think you could go to the medical room?"

"I don't think I can, Katie. It hurts too much." She cried as Chase tried to comfort her.

"Okay just stay calm. I'll be right there." Katie said ending the call. "Sorry Ryder but I need to go."

"That's okay go help Chase and Skye." He said as Katie ran out of the room as Ryder followed by walking.

As he was walking down the hall, Katie ran past Stephanie, who had finally got the pups to go to sleep, without knowing and ran in the medical room and thirty seconds later ran back out all while Stephanie was watching.

"What's going on?" She asked when Ryder got close to her.

"She got a call from Chase and I guess he said that Skye thinks that Meadow is coming." Ryder said as Stephanie gasped and ran for the room, but couldn't get in. "Don't bother trying. Katie asked me to make sure no one goes in."

"Oh."

"Okay Skye, Katie said she's on her way." Chase said after ending the call.

"Okay hopefully she hurries cause it hurts." She cried as Chase held her paws.

"It's going to be okay. You're doing great. And soon Meadow will be here." Chase encouraged as they heard a knock. "Who is it?"

"It's me Katie."

"Come in." He said as she got in and closed the door. Running over to where they were she started getting everything ready.

"How are you feeling, Skye."

"A lot of pain." Skye said breathing really fast.

"Okay just breathe and everything will be all right." Katie said as she continued to set things up. After a couple minutes everything was good to go. "Okay come here, Skye." She said as she picked Skye up and put her on the blanket. "Okay, Chase I need you to lay in front of her and keep her calm."

"You got done Katie." He said as he layed in front of her and held her paws.

"Okay, Skye you know the drill." Katie said.

"Can I say the same thing as last time?" Skye asked half-joking.

"You can but it won't work again." Katie said as Skye smiled but then shut her eyes in pain. "Okay, Skye now."

"I know you want to be in there but you have to let Chase and Katie be there for her." Ryder said after a couple minutes.

"I know but it's just hard cause I want to be there for when Meadow is born."

"I know you do. I would be as well if Katie and I ever had a baby. So I totally understand." He said as they continued to sit there in silence.

After Skye gave another big push she let it out and breathed for a couple seconds.

"Okay, Skye do it again." Katie said as Skye gave a push and after she let go she started to cry a little from the pain.

"Hey it's okay you're doing great. Don't give up." Chase said as he gave her a hug being careful not to pull her too much as she cried in his shoulder. After they broke apart they continued on.

Ten minutes has gone by and Ryder and Stephanie were still by the door when they heard a howl as Stephanie's head whipped around in concern and Ryder saw it.

"She's going to be all right."

"I know it's just my motherly instincts are too strong sometimes."

"I understand. But everything is going to be okay. Chase is with her at this moment."

"Yeah." At that moment Everest poked her head out of her room and saw the two sitting there.

"Hey is everything okay? I heard a howl." She said.

"Yeah. But Meadow has decided to come today after all. But it's going to be all right." Ryder said.

"Okay." Everest said as she walked back in.

After she let out that howl Skye was in so much pain while Chase was trying to keep her calm.

"Okay, Skye she's almost here. I need you to give one more big push."

" I can't." She cried.

"Yes you can. I know you can." Chase said.

"It hurts."

"I know it does. But you are strong. You can do this." He said with his paw on her cheek. "We can do this together. Okay?" He asked as she nodded. "Then one, two, three push!" He exclaimed as she gave a big push and let out a cry. After that it was dead silent until a tiny cry broke the silence.

"She's here!" Katie said as she held Meadow and Skye cried harder relieved that it was finally over.

Handing the pup to Chase and Skye, Chase took her since Skye was exhausted and he put Meadow in between the two of them as he pulled Skye in for a hug as she cried in his arms overjoyed that their little girl was finally there. After a couple minutes she calmed down and finally looked down at their newborn daughter.

"Good job honey. You did the whole thing." Chase praised.

"I seriously thought I was going to die. That was so much more painful then when the other three were born."

"Hey it's okay. But you did it and now our little girl is here."

"I'll let you two have a couple minutes alone. Come get me when you are ready for me to bring in Stephanie." Katie said walking to the door.

"Okay thanks Katie." Chase said as Katie left the room.

For a couple minutes they could here nothing but cries of pain. Suddenly a silence blanketed the Lookout until a small cry broke the silence and Stephanie smiled.

"Sounds like someone is a grandma again." Ryder said smiling.

"I can't believe it. She did it." She said softly .

"And I knew she would. She had done it before." At that moment the door opened and closed and they saw Katie standing there smiling.

"Little Meadow came safe and sound. She is beautiful." She said as Stephanie smiled.

"Can we see her?" Stephanie asked.

"In a couple minutes. You may want to get John while we let them have their time alone."

"Okay." She said walking away to get John.

After Katie left Chase and Skye took that time to happily look at their daughter.

"I can't believe she's finally here." Skye said.

"Me neither. But she is so adorable." Chase said.

"I know. And to think of the whole process it took for her to be here."

"Yeah but it's okay. I am safe, the pups are safe, and now we have a cute little daughter." Chase said as Skye looked at him and him at her and then they kissed. After the kiss Chase had a question. "Do you want me to get the others now?"

"Yeah. Go ahead." Skye said as Chase got up and went to the door. " Hey there Meadow." She said softly rubbing Meadow's back as Chase stopped to look at the two and smiled. Opening the door he peeked his head out.

A minute later Stephanie and John returned back to the group as they all heard the door open. Looking up they saw Chase peek his head out and smiled at them.

"You can come in now." He said as they got up and walked in. Standing off to the side Ryder and Katie watched as Stephanie and John walked up to their newborn granddaughter.

"Mom and dad I would like you to meet Meadow."

"Oh. She's adorable." Stephanie said.

"Thanks. Would you like to hold her?" Chase asked.

"Yes." She said as he handed Meadow to her. " Hey, Meadow." She said holding her as John smiled. After a couple minutes they handed her back to her parents.

"If you want could you get the pups so they can meet their sister." Skye said.

"Sure we'll go get them." John said as he and Stephanie walked out.

"Congratulations you two." Ryder said .

"Thanks Ryder." They both said.

"Of course. We'll see you tomorrow."

"Okay. See ya." Chase said as Ryder and Katie left the room. A couple minutes later Stephanie and John came in with the pups following.

"You wanted to see us." Ella said.

"Yes. If you be careful you can come see your new sister." Skye said as the three walked over and laid in front of Meadow.

"She's so cute." Daniel said.

"She's tiny." Natalie said as the adults laughed.

"Yes but you were tiny once too." Skye said .

"Really."

"Yep. You all were at one time. Though Daniel was the smallest. Go figure." Chase said recalling the moment.

"I was?"

"Yep. We thought that you would be short for your life but you grew out of it." Skye said.

"Wow."

"Yeah. If you guys want to you can sleep with us for tonight." Chase said laying down next to Skye.

"Okay." The three said as they snuggled in next to their parents.

"Cuddle close. Scooch in." Skye said as they did but then the pups fell asleep as quick as lightning as Chase and Skye chuckled then went to sleep. Quietly leaving the room Stephanie and John shut the door letting the family to sleep in peace and quiet.

Over at the Adventure Bay PD and station an officer arrived at a certain cell. Looking in she saw the prisoner looking away from her.

"Tanya Samur you have a visitor." She said unlocking the cell door and placing handcuffs on Tanya. Escorting Tanya over to the visitor room they sat her down as she waited for whoever it was that wanted to see her. A minute later the door opened up. Looking up she saw two people she thought she would never see again.

"Mother? What are you doing here?" 9 year old Emily asked.

"Oh Cassandra, Emily. I'm sorry you have to see me like this but I was wrongfully accused by someone and got thrown in here." Tanya lied.

"Was it by that girl and the dog that was at the house?" 15 year old Cassandra asked.

"Yes but it was also by the Paw Patrol. But once I get out of here I will make sure they know."

"But what if you never get out?" Emily asked.

"Don't worry my girls everything will be all right. I love you."

"Love you too, Mother." The girls said as they were about to leave.

"And Cassandra."

"Yes mom." Cass said as she leaned in when her mom said to.

"When the time comes you must succeed where I failed."

"Yes mother." Cassandra said as vengeance for her mother began to grow.
