A/N: Hi, everyone. Here's the next part of the story. Now a little side note: this month is getting really busy so I won't be able to update as frequently as I used to, hence why the updagtes will be on delay. But I can check back every once in a while.
Now, on to the next chapter.
"PAW Patrol, ready for action, Ryder, sir! Minus Zuma, Ryder, sir!" Chase announced.
"Pups, I just overheard a girl talking to her parents over Zuma's pup-tag and here's the emergency." Ryder said as he pressed the pup-pad. "That girl's house is on fire and her parents are trapped inside. Zuma is already there so we can locate the scene over his pup-tag." Then he started scrolling.
"Chase, I need you to secure the burning house with your cones."
"Chase is on case!" Chase shouted.
"Marshall, Misty and Linda, you three need to put out that fire."
"I'm fired up!"
"Ready to spray!"
"Water away!"
"Avalanche, I need your gear on standby in case we need to give the two a checkup."
"EMT, coming through!" Avalanche shouted.
"I'll prepare myself to enter the burning house and get the two out. So I'll take one of the firefighter suits I found while on my last walk. PAW Patrol is on a roll!" Ryder shouted as the team deploys.
Meanwhile, the firefighters have arrived and got to work, but it didn't help much as the flames were too big.
"Please, hurry, my parents are still in there." Jessica pleaded.
"We're doing everything we can, ma'am, but the fires are too big." One of the firefighters told her.
Jessica sighed as she thought she would lose her parents and be all alone. But then…
"Hey, guys, I hear more sirens. They're coming from over there." A firefighter said.
The rest of the firefighters turned to where the finger was pointing and their eyes went wide, even Jessica's. A boy in a firefighter suit on an ATV, A police truck, an ambulance and 3 fire trucks entered the scene and got to work. While Chase was setting up the cones, Marshall jumped out and ran over to Jessica with Ryder while Misty and Linda started putting out the fire.
"Are your parents still inside?" He asked.
Jessica nodded and Ryder ran inside while having an oxygen mask on so he couldn't inhale any smoke. Jessica just watched in amazement as the team and the firefighters worked together to put out the fire. Then, she turned to Zuma.
"How did they get here so fast?" She asked.
"Easy, my pup-tag. They can track me and my friends over them." Zuma replied.
Meanwhile in the house, Ethan and Ella were down on the floor so they could avoid inhaling smoke. The door to their room was closed and they took shelter under the couch.
"Do you think we'll be okay, Ella?" Ethan asked.
"I'm not…" but before she could finish, both heard the door being kicked open. Both looked to see a firefighter, but he looked young. Taking their chance, they crawled out and he saw them.
"I'm here to help, follow me." He said. Having no choice, they decided to follow him out of the house.
When they finally got out, Jessica ran over to them and hugged them. After half an hour, the fire was out and everyone was safe. The house, however was burned and no one could live in there anymore.
"Well, looks like we need to find a new home." Jessica pointed out.
"That's right. But the good thing is that we're all alive." Ethan replied.
"I agree. Thank you, young man. Without you, we would be burned alive." Ella told Ryder in a suit.
"No problem. Whenever you're in trouble, just yelp for help!" Ryder said.
Ella then turned to her daughter. "Jessica, me and your father are going to see if we can find a home for us in the city. You stay here." Jessica nodded as the parents walked away. As soon as they were gone, Azura approached her owner.
"The pups have packed up and are ready to head to the hotel. You found one yet, Ryder?"
"Sure did, Azura. Let's go." Ryder said before both began walking away. But then…
"Wait just a minute!" The two stopped and turned around. "You'll want to change the name of your owner. What you just said was a surname." Jessica pointed out.
But before Ryder could speak, Azura whispered, "You might want to take the helmet off." Ryder nodded as he took off his mask. As soon as he did that, Jessica's face froze.
No. No way. How?! He-he's alive! She thought as she felt her hands sweating. Her heartbeat increasing speed as she felt tears in her eyes. Noticing how she didn't say a word, Ryder smirked.
"Just as I thought. Let's go, Azura." Azura nodded as she turned and the two began walking away. But then, Jessica spoke.
"Z-Zack? Is that you?" Both stopped dead in their tracks as they turned around.
"Who are you calling Zack? There's no…" But Azura was cut off.
"How… How do you know my name?" Ryder asked. Azura whipped her head to her owner in shock. Did she just hear that right?
"Remember when you got Chase?" Ryder gasped in shock. There was only one girl that knew about getting Chase.
"J-Jessica? But how?" He asked in shock, feeling ready to cry.
"Yes!" Jessica exclaimed as she wrapped him in a hug. "Yes, it's me! I can't believe you're alive!" Jessica yelled out.
"Ryder? You know this girl?" Azura asked in confusion.
Once both let go, Ryder turned to face her. "Of course. She's my sister." Azura's jaw dropped. Her owner has a sister? But then, Ella and Ethan arrive just as the two backed away. The rest of the pups, minus Chase, came out of the PAW Patroller to see what the holdup was.
"Sorry, Jessica. We did everything we could, but there are no more houses." Ella said sadly.
"It's okay. But now we need to find a way to survive." Jessica replied.
Ethan was about to speak, but then he noticed a boy in a firefighter suit, saw his face and his own face froze. He quickly turned to his wife.
"Ella! Ella!" He whispered.
"What is it?" She asked.
"Look!" Ella looked towards where her husband was pointing and she gasped quietly. Her eyes were already filling with tears as she spoke.
"Z-Zack?!" Everyone except Ryder went wide-eyed upon hearing that while Ryder gasped.
"M-Mom? Dad?" He asked in shock.
Then, Ethan and Ella rushed over and hugged him, all the while the pups were mumbling between themselves.
"What's all this commotion about?" Everyone turned to the PAW Patroller to see Chase walking out, a stern look on his face. He walked over to Azura.
"Azura, what's going on here?" But before Azura could say anything…
"I can explain this, Chase." Chase froze upon hearing the voice. He turned left and gasped. His tail began wagging like crazy as he rushed to the girl.
"Jessica!" He shouted as he jumped into the girl's arms, licking her face over and over again.
"H-hey! Hehehehe! Calm down, Chase!" Jessica giggled. Just then, Ethan and Ella walked over to their daughter.
"Good to see you again, Chase." Ethan said with a smile as he began giving the German shepherd a belly rub.
"Hehehehehehe! Hey, that tickles! Hehehehehe!" Chase giggled as he enjoyed the belly rub. Even though the pups were confused about all this, Ryder smiled at the sight. No one even noticed that two of the pups weren't here at all. But then, Jessica put Chase down and turned to her brother.
"I thought you were dead when that factory blew up." She pointed out.
The two ended up talking for about 5 minutes until Jessica heard a ring. She took out her phone only to notice it's not her phone.
"Zack, what's that?" She asked.
"Oh, it's not your phone ringing. Hold on." Ryder said as he answered the call.
"Hello, Ryder here." Both Ella and Ethan whipped their heads to their son in shock. Did he just say Ryder?
"Ryder, it's me, Everest. We've got a huge problem!" Everest exclaimed on the other line.
"What happened?"
"Some sailors headed down the river for some fishing, but then the storm rolled in and now they're in trouble, and so is Skye. She tried to steer their boat to shore, but the waves were growing so much that she got caught in them. Now her engines are soaked and she's drowning."
"Stay where you are, Everest, help is on the way." Ryder replied.
"Thanks." Everest replied before ending the call. Ella heard what the husky said and rushed over to her son.
"Zack, we need to call the lifeguards to save your pups as well as coastal crew!" She exclaimed.
Ryder chuckled. "No need, mom. No job is too big, no pup is too small!" He shouted as he prepared to call the pups. His parents and Jessica were confused.
"Um, son, what is that supposed to mean?" Ethan asked, but Ryder ignored the question and pressed the button.
"PAW Patrol, to the PAW Patroller!"
"Ryder needs us!" The pups shouted as they rushed to the PAW Patroller, leaving the three confused.
"Who is PAW Patrol?" Jessica asked.
"I don't know, but I guess we'll find out." Ethan replied as the three ran after the pups.
A/N: Well, here it is. The fire's been taken care of, Jessica and her parents find out her son is alive and being called 'Ryder' and find out he leads the PAW Patrol. What iis going to happen next? Find out next time.
