Chapter 5
Skye
Skye made her way to Adventure Bay Airport, she knew her friend, and hero Ace Sorensen would be there cleaning up her plane, Amelia from last weeks air-show.
She walked into the hanger, it was dry and warm, and had an inviting feeling but that did not get rid of the sadness that she felt.
"Hey Skye," said Ace as she screwed a bolt in place.
"Hello Ace," Skye said. "What are you doing."
"Well I am fixing up Amelia's engine," explained Ace she put down a screwdriver, "it was making some weird noises but know she should be ready for another
flight."
"Can I ask you a question?" Skye asked
"Sure," Ace said.
"Have you ever quit a job?" Skye said.
"Can't say that I have," Ace responded, "why what's wrong."
"Well, the Paw Patrol broke up," Skye answered.
"Oh my," Ace said obviously shocked, "that's terrible."
Ace gave Skye a short hug.
At least I haven't lost all my friends Skye thought.
"Yay it is," Skye said, "anyway could I get a ride to the next airport, I'll see if I can find a job there."
"Sure but could you help me put away my tools first?" Ace asked.
"Of course," Skye said.
They carried the tools to a side room and came back to find a hammer on the floor of the hangar.
"Must have forgotten this," Ace said as she put the hammer on a shelf. "Well, let's get going."
They got in the plane and Ace started up the engine she then taxied onto the runway. Once the tower had given the all-clear they took off.
Skye stared at the sunset breaking through the dark clouds. She thought Ryder, Chase, Rocky, Rubble, Marshall, Zuma, and Everest, then fell asleep.
She was suddenly awakened by a loud noise a beeping from the control panel.
"Yes, control tower we have experienced a great deal of damage to the engine, losing altitude fast." Ace yelled into her headset.
"Ace what's happening," Skye said frightened.
"There was a loud bang in the engine," Ace said, I don't know why, I checked it before we left."
Smoke poured from the plane, and the cockpit became unbearably hot.
"We going to have to parachute out," Ace said as she pushed a button and the cockpit flew off.
Ace put the plane in autopilot, then she and Skye walked out onto the wing of the plane.
"On three," Ace said "One, two-" BOOM!
The plane exploded throwing Ace, and Skye into the air.
Ace pulled her zip cord and the parachute immediately expanded.
Skye however pulled the zip cord and her parachute did not come out. She desperately pulled the cord again and again but the parachute would not come out.
She felt herself falling faster and faster down towards the ground. Then she felt a hand grab her she looked up and realized that it was as that was holding her.
They slowly glided down to the tarmac of the airport. Where set down as the emergence crew, and airport staff came.
A while later Skye asked if there was a pilot that was offering a job.
"You might what to ask Captain Montgomery," the security guard said, "he might be able to help you. He lives in a cabin over that hill."
Skye thanked the lady and walked out of the airport to the hill. Halfway up she noticed some letters barely legible engraved in the bark of a tree near a cave, it read
Safe House
What could that mean Skye thought.
She walked deeper into the cave it's wall curved into a turn. She took another step forward, and then heard a loud hiss the almost instantly filled with dust. She was blinded and lost the back out of the cave.
She began to feel woozy and realized this was not dust, it was sleeping gas.
Life is like a sand storm, it is there for a little while then it is gone.
