Arrby had suggested they all went down to the beach, to relax for once. Ryder had agreed, and him and the pups decided to drive to the beach, with Arrby riding with
Marshall. When they got there, all the pups, except Rocky, went swimming. Ryder and Rocky just played fetch on the beach. " Why doesn't Rocky want to join us?"
Arrby asked Rubble. " He's not a fan of water." Rubble replied. *** Sid and Mayor Humdinger were out of sight as they both watched the pups through spyglasses.
" Look at those pups. They'll be surprised. It's a good thing I decided we team-up, Sid." Humdinger said. " Arrgh! It will soon be time to put my plan into action. We'll
humiliate the Paw Patrol so bad that we'll put them out of business." Sid replied. " I'd prefer we capture them all. But it's too bad we lost Sweetie, and that Arrby
sided with them." Humdinger grunted. Sid smiled at him. " Don't be so sure." Sid said evilly. *** The pups decided to get out of the water and build a sand castle. At
first, Rocky didn't notice them coming because he was reading some kind of fixing magazine. He did notice when Marshall ran out of the water and tripped and
crashed into Rocky. To make it worse for the mixed breed, the Dalmatian was still wet. " Oops! Sorry Rocky." Marshall apologized. " That's okay Marshall, but next
time, try not to crash into me while your still wet." Rocky replied. They laughed, and then Ryder and the pups spotted something on the water that was heading right
for the beach. Ryder took out a pair of binoculars, and saw that it was Sid the Pirate's ship, with Mayor Humdinger and Sid on it. They weren't slowing down. " Mayor
Humdinger and Sid. I think they are up to something very bad, since they are coming right at us." Skye said. " Ryder grabbed a megaphone from beside the nearby
life guard chair. " EVERYONE! CLEAR THE BEACH! THERE'S A SHIP HEADED RIGHT TOWARDS US!" Ryder yelled into it. Every heeded Ryder's words, and within
seconds, Ryder and the pups were the only ones left on the beach. Suddenly, the ship stopped, and a net came out of a launcher on the ship right at them. Ryder
spotted it first. " Pups! Run!" Ryder exclaimed. The pups didn't see the net, so they didn't know why he was telling them to run, but they did it anyway. They turned
around, and they saw the net, and the next thing they knew, Ryder was caught in the net. " Ryder!" they cried. The net retracted, and Ryder was lifted over the
water onto the ship. " They have Ryder!" Rubble exclaimed. " What are we going to do?" Everest asked. The pups noticed something strange: Arrby was gone. ***
Harold looked on as he watched his Uncle and Sid capture Ryder. " My uncle and that pirate think they are better than me. I not only captured Ryder, but the 6
pups. I would've gotten away with it if Sweetie hadn't shown up. I know the Paw Patrol has been looking for her, but they'll be distracted trying to save Ryder, so
I'll have Sweetie to myself. That pup thinks she's so sneaky, but I'm sneakier! Hahaha!" Harold exclaimed. *** Sweetie found a note for her near town hall from
Harold. It said that if she thought she really was the best Paw Patrol villain, then that she should meet him at the bridge, and they'll meet at the bridge. Sweetie
laughed when she read this. " Harold thinks he is a match for me? He'll be sorry for bringing me to that bridge. I just hope we won't get interrupted by the pesky Paw
Patrol!" Sweetie said to herself. She made her way to the bridge after she got some gear. *** Ryder found himself put in a cage on the ship, and saw Humdinger and
Sid there. " What do you guys want?" Ryder inquired. " Without you, the Paw Patrol is nothing." Humdinger replied. " Without you, the pups won't be able to stop
me and Arrby from stealing whatever we want.", Sid started, before Arrby came into Ryder's view, " Arrby and I never had an argument. Arrby was just pretending
so he could lead you and the pups to the beach so we could capture you, leaving them leader-less." Arrby laughed, and Ryder grew angry. " You two just wait. The
pups will come for me, and you'll be in trouble." Ryder exclaimed. " If they want to catch Sweetie, they can go get her. Because she has a date at the bridge. Well,
not a date, but a face-off." Humdinger said. " What?" Ryder asked. " If you are a true Paw Patrol leader, you'd want them to be ready to catch her. They also would
love to see the battle." Humdinger replied. " What battle? With who?" Ryder asked, more confused. " With my nephew. He thought he could keep it from me, but I
know. Ryder, it's two of your top enemies, squaring off. Royal pup of Barkingburg vs nephew of mayor of Foggy Bottom. The immovable object against the irresistible
force." Humdinger exclaimed. Ryder eyes widened. *** The sky got stormy, and it started to rain. Harold looked on, and he saw Sweetie at the other end of the
bridge with a flash of lighting striking in the background.
