Alrighty everyone Welcome to my paw patrol holiday special! I know it's only December and a couple weeks before Christmas, but I wanted to start it early. Begin!
Rocky watched as the white snow fell to the ground lightly. It was two weeks before Christmas and he couldn't wait. He wanted dog bones, and biscuits, and a relax day, but most inmportantly, he walked loved. Ryder had been focused on the other pups. Zuma and Rocky were the only ones left out. Always the least used on missions too. After Zuma found Tumbleweed and fell in love, Rocky was left all alone. The Christmas tree outside was decorated, and the lookout looked like a winter wonderland. The other pups were peacefully watching Apollo, or not peacefully. Rubble had already watched the episode and was saying all the words his favorite super pup said. Rocky sighed, jumping down from the window. Chase and Skye watched Apollo but were also keeping a close eye on their pups, Bee and Honey. Marshall lay with Everest on one bean bag. The couple had been together for some time now and seemed to be lost in their own word talking to each other, instead of watching Apollo. Everest was staying for Christmas at the lookout since the mountain was closed because of the holidays. Jake also stayed in the guest bedroom. Tumbleweed and Zuma barely watched, but listened to Rubble as he barked out the words. He was also keeping an eye on his only son, Cactus, while Tumbleweed kept an eye on his 3 sisters, Sandy, Prickle, and, Sunshine. They each had a bow in their fur and Cactus had a bow tie on. Thy were going to Zuma's family reunion this week so they had to look nice. Rubble even had a love, Marble, who was at Katie's getting groomed. It would be the first Christmas for all the little pups. Rocky sighed, looking at his paws. The pups were not the only ones life changeing. He felt farther away from the pups than he had before and Ryder, well he just became a person living in his life. He was no longer an owner, or really a leader to him. Only an outsider living with him. The town became more boring and the people in it, just became average people in his town. Rocky thought, "Maybe the waves will cheer me up." He looked at the clock, "7:14 pm" He grabbed his green scarf and hat, and headed outside. The snow was gentle and soft as it fell to the ground slowly. His paw prints leaving marks in the snow, Rocky walked down to the beach. Rocky found the weather and waves relaxing. Now he didn't like the water, but he felt the way it moved loosened him up. He made it down to the beach, snow still falling, and sat down, watching the waves splash up and down the shore. His tail wagged as the water lightly fell and rose. He yawned. It was getting dark as the sun dropped below the water line. Rocky walked up back up to the lookout, and walked to his light green recycling truck and laid down in it, closing his eyes.
The sun rose and all the dogs and pups were rushing around. Chase and Skye had a Christmas photo shoot with the pups, Tumbleweed and Zuma had the family reunion, Rubble and Marble wanted to go with Everest and Marshall up to Jake's mountain and snowboard for a bit, and Spots was helping out Katie with decorating. Rocky sighed, watching them all scurry around. "Nothing but watch the water today" he thought. He walked down the the beach and saw big, grey storm clouds heading in. "Must be a blizzard coming thru." He thought looking at the sky. Rocky went back to watching the water before he got a call. "Yes Ryder?" He tried to sound happy through the call. "I want you to come back to the lookout. A blizzard is coming in." Rocky barked back, "Yes Ryder," and ended the call. He looked at his paws. He looked at the ocean and relized a splashing in the water. He got up as high as he could on the lifeguard tower and relized a pup, paddling towards shore, a surf board by seal island. He got down from the tower and got his paws in the water. He didn't like it, but he wanted to save the pup. The pup paddled to the shore, but then stopped, to weak to continue. Rocky grabbed it by the scruff and helped it onto land. The pup coughed, "Thanks for saving me." Rocky only smiled. She had grey fur with a tan underbelly and a collar with red and white stripes. Rocky shook hearing another voice. "Candy, your okay!" He looked over and saw a tall, male pup, with an orange coat and a pink nose. Candy cane got up and ran to him. Rocky frowned. "Thanks for saving her." The dog said, touching noses with Candy Cane. Rocky's tail stopped wagging, "your welcome." He mumbled. "What was that?" The dog said teasingly. "Your welcome!" Rocky growled at the pup. "Okay then, grumpy grinch" The pup mumbled. The two pups ran off. "I found the pup for me, and then I lost the beautiful pup." He thought looking at his paws. "Hey Wocky, whatcha doing with your paws in the water?" He heard Zuma behind him. He didn't reply, only sat there sadly. He heard a truck drive away, "I'll always be alone." He mumbled. Rocky walked back up to the lookout and went to take a nap in his pup house, angry at what had happened at the beach. When he awoke, there was a wall of snow in front of him. "Gosh, I hate blizzards." Rocky dug a small hole and walked into the lookout, where he shook snow off. He sat down next to his full dog bowl and ate. The other pup's bowls were still full. Rocky continued to eat and walked to his water bowl and took a big gulp of water. "No one here to bother me" he smiled, his head bobbing from side to side. Rocky laid down on a bean bag, about to turn on the news when he felt his pup tag buzz."Ugh, stop calling me." He declined the call. Then he felt multiple buzzes, and decided to answer. "What do you want!" Rocky said in a sort of growling way. "Oh thank goodness you answered Rocky. We need your help." He heard a very destressed Marble bark. "Pfft Like that's a real thing." Rocky mumbled. "Please" He heard a whimper. "Ugh fiiiiine." Rocky barked. "Where are you?" "Jake's mountain near th-" Rocky didn't hear the rest of what she was saying. It was all just static. "I may not be Chase, but I'll try to track them down." He sighed, leaving the bean bag. He hopped over snow,carefully not to fall through it, and hopped into his truck. His truck was unable to drive due to the snow and ice, but he was able to find some snowshoes. He put the snowshoes on and started to hike up the mountain. He made it the Jake's cabin and walked inside, hoping to find something useful. He found a hat and scarf and relized he forgot his. He put the hat and scarf on and looked around some more. He found some snacks of the table and decided to take them, if he got lost too. He put the treats in his pup pack and continued to wonder around the cabin. He decided he probably wouldn't find anything else that would help, and walked out to the snowy outside. Wind burst snow into Rocky's face and he shook it off. He walked on until it was s forbidden area. "Ruff Ruff, Marble? Marshall? Everest? Rubble? Where are you guys." All Rocky got in reply was a whimpering pup. "Guys are you there?" He heard a yowl in pain again and ended the call. "Who got hurt?" He thought as he ran down the mountain. "I'm not Rosie. I can heal, so don't expect me to." He muttered to himself. Rocky reached a cliff and looked over it. It had small ledges alongside to mountain and one crumbled to the ground. "Hello? Anyone there?" His voice echoed on the side of the mountain. Nothing but plan silence. He frowned, "Chase makes this look easy." He barked. "Ruff ruff, Chase? Skye? We have a problem." Rocky heard a scream and a crash, but he didn't hear any of the pups bark a word. "Not then in trouble too!" Rocky growled. "Where's Ryder? And Rosie? And Zuma and Tumbleweed? I need their help!" Rocky tried calling Rosie first, but all he got was a static noise. Then Ryder, and he got nothing from Ryder. "He usually always answers." Rocky thought, trying to call Zuma. This time he got an answer, but he heard crashing. "Sowwy Wocky, c- get back hewe! Sowwy , could I call you ba- Pwickle!" He hung up. Rocky looked at his paws. He saw an orange glow at his pup tag and he answered it. "Wocky? What's up?" "So I'm supposed to be saving Marshall, Everest, Rubble, And Marble, because they got trapped somewhere on Jake's mountain. And so I called Chase for help, but all I heard was a scream and a crash. Could you help me out?" Rocky looked at the sky, snow falling. "Sowwy Wocky, But we're alweady up with my family. It'll take ages to get back." Rocky hung up, angry. "I guess I'm by myself. That's normal for me." He stood up and walked around the snowy mountain until he saw paw prints. He sniffed them, but he didn't have a strong nose, so he was unable to find the scent. He followed the prints, and saw a deep hole. He peaked his head above it, "Hello? Anyone there?" He heard a gasp. "Rocky! Thank goodness! This ice broke and we fell. Rubble hurt his paw, and Everest is having her puppies!" He heard a destressed Marshall yowled in panic. "Okay I'll get you up, or me down." He tied the rope he found around a tree tightly, and tied the other end around him. He carefully crept down the wall and turned on the flashlight. He saw Rubble laying in pain, Everest in pain, Marshall pacing, and Marble trying the help Everest. Everest let out a horrible yowl. "It's okay Everest, just breath." While Marble was working on Everest, Rocky got Marshall and Rubble back up. Looking at instructions from the first aid kit, Rocky put on a bandage around Rubble's broken paw. He hopped back down the hole and Marble was carrying a small pup in her jaws. Rocky carefully helped Marble up, and she gave the pup to Marshall. "Hold on to her Marshall. Rocky do you have a blanket?" Rocky nodded getting a blanket out of his pup pack. Marble wrapped the small pup with the blanket. "M-my daughter." Marshall quietly said, unbelievably. Marble nodded, "got another blanket?" Rocky shook his head, "I only grabbed one." Rocky looked back down, and carefully walked down again. "Okay Everest, I'm going to carefully lift you up alright." Everest tiredly nodded. Rocky grabbed Everest with two paws underneath her, and barked three times. Rocky started to rise and by a couple minutes, Everest was laying with Marshall and her pup. "I'll go get a sled. It'll be easier for you guys." Marshall nodded, and Rocky ran off to get a sled. His pup tag blinked blue, "Chase?" He barked, still running to the cabin, "Now is not a good time." "Uklue Wocky?" "Honey?" Rocky barked in confused "Uklue Wocky! Helpt! Bee, Mommy, Daddy sleeping car! Car flip over!" He heard a worried Honey bark. "Don't worry, I'll be there as soon as I can little pumpkin." "No no now! scary!" Rocky heard an echo from the worried pup in the cabin. He grabbed a rescue sled and rode it down to where the others were. "Hurry get in. We have to go save Skye and Chase." Marshall got up, worried about his best friend, "What happened!?" Rocky gave him a stern look, "Just get in the sled." He nodded and briskly got in the den. Marble got Everest and the little pup on the couch in the cabin, and they both fell asleep. "Let's go save Chase!" Marshall barked. "No. Stay with Everest, Marshall. Protect her." Marble growled at Marshall. He nodded. Rocky ran out of the den.
*At The Lookout*
Rocky hopped in his truck, while Marble hopped in her's. "Rocky what did you need?" He heard Rosie bark beside his truck. "I need you to come with us in your ambulance. It's an emergency." Rosie nodded and hopped into the ambulance. They drive off in the snow, careful of the ice. "Wocky!" He heard his pup tag go off again. "Coming?" "Yes Honey, we'll be there soon." "Okay, hurwy. Dada bleed" Rosie looked over at Rocky. "What happened?" "A crash," Rocky replied. "Yeah big crash noise!" Honey squeaked. Rocky hung up on the small pup, focused on where he was going. He made it to a road, a couple miles away from adventure bay when he saw the roads were icey. "Be careful it's icy" the girls nodded. They pulled up to a van and Rocky used his forklifts the lift it up. He saw 4 little paws on the window and heard small barks. "Honey, Bee, stay away from the glass." Marble yelled. the puppies moved away from the window. Marble and Rosie got Chase and Skye out, who were now getting checked by Rosie. Bee and Hiney climbed into Rocky's truck, a little scrap on each of them. "Will mommy and daddy be ok?" Bee barked. Rocky nodded, "I'm sure they will be." Chase and Skye got put on a stretcher and out in the ambulance. They all drove back to the lookout.
*back at the lookout*
"Oh my- What happened?" Ryder gasped. "I tried calling you about it Ryder! You didn't answer!" Rocky growled. Chase and Skye were now awake laying on the bean bags. They had a little confusion and scratches from glass, but other than that they were alright. Ryder tried to reply, but Rocky stormed out of the lookout. He walked to the beach and sat in the cold snow. The water was somewhat frozen. Honey and Bee ran behind Rocky and on top of him. "Pups!" "Wocky you wanna pway?" Rocky laughed. "I'm kinda busy pups." "Busy doing what exactly?" Bee mumbled. "Watching the water." Rocky replies calmly. The pups giggled, "There's no water there! It's all ice." Rocky smiled, "follow me." Rocky got up and walked to the shore line. He pressed his paw on the ice and it broke. Water seeped through the ice. "Look pups, there is water." "How'd you do that?" They asked in unison. "Well you see here pups. I'm not magic, but the dogs from the past are. My mother told me the stories back when I was a pup." Rocky barked to them, "back when I was loved" He thought, but he shook it away. "Frost, the great and powerful ice dog, wanted to play with Aqua, the gentle, short-tempered water pup. You see, Aqua didn't like Frost and when he wanted to play, he always wanted to play freezetag. Unfortunately for Aqua, she was a quiet pup and let Frost get his way. So whenever they played freezetag, Aqua would always get froze. Then one day, Aqua had enough with Frost and sent a big storm across the sea. You see the storm was her older brother, Storm. Storm cracked frost into two, so whenever he tried to play with Aqua again, he would get a terrible feeling of guilt, and a big storm would freeze the ponds, and lakes, and even oceans. That's how storms and ice became terrible and unfortunate for us dogs today." Honey and Bee stared at Rocky, "Cool! Let's go play some Frost and Aqua!" Bee yowled. Honey answered, "Yeah!" "Don't get to far pups!" Rocky barked, the pups already playing. Rocky day, watching the clouds. "Unkle Wocky. Bee bit me!" "I didn't mean too!" Bee growled at Honey, "Yeah you did!" "No!" "Yes-" "Pups why not you go see mommy and daddy. They're awake now." "Yay!" They barked and ran off. "Hey your Rocky right?" He heard a voice and turned around. "Yep that's me." He looked at the pup in front of him. "Well I just wanted to let you know there's some trash on the beach." Rocky walked off of the beach to the sidewalk, "Where?" The pup laughed, "Oh wait never mind your off of it." Rocky frowned and his tail dropped. The dog ran off. "Why do people hate me!" He growled, kicking snow. His pup tag beeped, "Rocky come to the lookout now!" He heard Ryder say sternly. Rocky growled, "If he wants to talk to me, fine just fine."
At the lookout
"You had no reason to growl at me before Rocky! I am done with this negative energy you are bringing all of us!" Chase growled, "Let's not forget he saved my family Ryder." "Stay out of this!" Rocky sat pinned to the wall. "Rocky, next time you with to bring that nasty behavior of yours to me then don't!" Rocky nodded, walking out of the lookout. "Ryder had never yelled at me like that before. Not even Chase! What's gotten into him?" He thought, looking at his paws. He walked to his pup house and laid down. He heard pawsteps and Skye and Chase came around, "Thanks for saving us Rocky." Skye whispered. Rocky barked, "Your Welcome." "Don't worry about Ryder, he's just upset that his family isn't coming to Christmas here in Adventure bay like they said they would." Rocky chuckled, "It's like having no family." Rocky looked down. "Don't say that Rocky. You have us." Skye tried to lift his spirit. "Thanks guys, but I think you should leave." They both nodded and limped back into the lookout. Rocky closed the door to his puphouse, and laid down. "Too bad there are no waves to calm me down." He thought. "One week before Christmas. Surely I can apologize to Ryder somehow." He got out of his puphouse, not worrying about time, and walked into town. Christmas lights and tinsel was hung up around the lampposts and the town was glistening. Garbby was eating hay from town hall and the mayor was walking Chickaletta. Rocky sighed, "If only." He heard barked in the distance, "Help! Help!" Rocky stopped running to the bay. Two little pups were trying to get on the ice, but had fallen in. "Honey! Bee! I'm coming!" Rocky barked carefully walking in the ice and swimming to the two pups. He made it to them. He threw them both on the thicker ice and placed his paws so he wouldn't get swept away. He hopped up on the ice. The pups yelled, "Look out!" A snowmobile was heading straight for them. It turned and stopped. "That was so knarly!" Rocky heard someone. He looked over and he saw a beautiful pup, with tan colored fur and white spots. She had a green collar and hazel eyes. Rocky stopped, frozen in love. "What are you cuties doing out here in the cold." Honey and Bee his behind Rocky. Rocky replied, "J-Just um w-watching the water." He smiled. The pup smiled, "Hop on I'll take you to land." Rocky helped the pups up and they rode to shore. "Are these cuties yours?" The pup looked at Bee and Honey." Rocky studdered, "Oh these two, no just a friend of mines. They went out and fell through the ice. I saved them." "Awwww well I'm-" "Aqua time to go!" Rocky barked a goodbye and thank you and stood there. "W-wow she was fantastic."
K just to clear things up, this is after A Frozen Fall and before A pups curse. Chase's and Skye's pups were named Teddy and Bear before, but I didn't like it much. They are the same characteristics and stuff, just different names. And I also changed Rocky being mates with Everest to Marshall being mates with her. Rosie is Marshall's sister now. I am trying to make this the most exciting I can, and it will get more exciting in the next couple of chapters. I promise. Long chapter I know. All of these OCs are mine, I did use names that are already used, but I promise these are all new characters.
