A/N: Next chapter is up. One more chapter and it'll be complete. Enjoy.
Soon, Jessica, Ethan and Ella arrived just in time to see Marshall crash into the other pups.
"You okay, Marshall?" Jessica asked.
"Don't worry, this happens all the time." He replied before they all got into gear and got into positions. Jessica, Ethan and Ella were amazed at the inside of the PAW Patroller.
"PAW Patrol, ready for action, Ryder, sir!" Chase announced, surprising the three in process.
"Since when did Chase start calling Zack 'sir'?" Jessica asked in a whisper.
Ethan and Ella shrugged as Ryder began the briefing. "Thanks for coming so quickly, guys. A group of sailors is in trouble. They headed down the river to do some fishing, but didn't notice the storm rolling in until it started swaying their ship."
Everyone gasped. "Oh, God. That's even worse than getting wet." Rocky said.
"Indeed, Rocky. But it gets even worse than that. Skye tried to steer the boat to shore, but the waves out there were growing so much that one of them knocked her into the water. Now her engines are soaked and since she has never swum in that weather before, she could drown."
"Oh, no! My baby!" Miranda exclaimed, on the verge of tears.
"Everest is already waiting at shore so she's safe." Upon hearing that, Avalanche sighed in relief as Ryder scrolled the pup-pad to the following icons:
"Zuma, I need your hovercraft to help me pull the boat to the harbor."
"Let's dive in!" Zuma shouted.
"Azura, while we get the boat back to harbor, you use the buoy to save Skye."
"Ready to splash!" Azura shouted.
"Miranda, I need you to be our eyes in the sky. Search for Skye and the boat."
"I was born to fly!" Miranda shouted.
"Chase, be prepared at the harbor. Once we tow the boat close enough, we'll use your winch to pull it in all the way."
"Chase is on the case!" Chase shouted.
"Avalanche and Marshall, I need you two to prepare the gear in case they all got sea sick after that crazy cruising, or caught a cold in Skye's case."
"Ready for a ruff-ruff rescue!"
"EMT, coming through!" but once Avalanche finished her call-out, Jessica stood up.
"Zack, may I tag along?" Jessica asked.
Ryder nodded. "As long as you hold on tight and do as I say, sure. Alright, PAW Patrol is on a roll!"
The team soon arrived, but then, Jessica noticed that her brother was heading towards the water.
"Zack, we're heading for the water! Are you crazy?!" She yelled out. Ryder just smiled.
"Lifejacket, deploy!" Jessica felt her shirt expand in width as the lifejacket deployed. But then, she noticed the ATV going off the edge of the harbor. Ethan and Ella watched the scene from the beach.
"I can't watch!" Ella exclaimed as she covered her eyes.
But then, she heard something on the water so she uncovered her eyes and what she saw made her nearly lose her balance. Her son's vehicle is some kind of speed boat. Even Jessica was surprised.
"We're going on water. How did you do that, bro?" She asked.
"It's a long story, I'll explain later." Ryder said as they took off towards the boat. Meanwhile, the fishermen were trying to keep their balance on their ship as it swayed back and forth due to the weather and the waves. However, one of them noticed something.
"Captain, something's heading our way!" He shouted.
"Must be the crew someone sent to help us. Prepare to… Hey, what's that in the water?"
The sailors turned to where the captain was pointing and saw that it was a pup, which was actually Skye.
"Quick, give me the life preserver! We need to bring the pup onboard!" The others obeyed as they tossed the preserver to Skye. Once it caught her, they pulled her onboard.
"You alright, little one?" The captain asked.
"I'm fine, just cold." Skye shivered. "Ah-ah-Achoo!"
"Bless you. Men, we need to warm her up. And someone prepare the ship. The coastal crew is coming to save us." The others nodded before getting to work while the medic wrapped a towel around the cockapoo to keep her warm.
However, the sailors didn't expect what they saw as one of them noticed a boy, a teenage girl and two dogs off in a distance.
"Uh, captain? I don't know what you expected the coastal crew to look like, but I'm sure it doesn't involve dogs."
"Dogs?!" The captain asked as he looked in the direction the sailor was watching and indeed saw two dogs, as well as a kid and a teenage girl.
As they got closer, he shouted, "You four need to get out of the water! This storm is strong and the waves are growing by the minute!"
"That's why we're here! We'll pull you to the harbor! Do you have any ropes?" The kid asked.
"Sure do, but who are you?" The captain asked.
"We're the PAW Patrol!"
Upon hearing that, the captain didn't think twice, he ran below deck, grabbed the ropes and tossed them to the kid.
"Thanks. Zuma, tie one of the ropes to your hovercraft, Jessica, you tie the other to the back of my ATV."
"Roger that!" Zuma and Jessica shouted as they got to work. Soon, the PAW Patrol were on their way to harbor, but then, Ryder got a call from Miranda.
"Hey, Miranda, how's it going?" Ryder asked. Miranda's teary-eyed face appeared on the screen.
"Terrible. I can't see Skye anywhere and the waves are too big." Miranda replied, tears running down her cheeks as she was worrying about her daughter.
"Don't give up yet, Miranda. Keep searching, she's got to be out there." Ryder ordered.
"Got it. I hope I'll find her in time." Miranda replied as she ended the call.
After 15 minutes, Ryder and the pups pulled the boat to the harbor and the sailors and the captain thanked the PAW Patrol, with Ryder telling them to yelp for help if they need it. The captain then turned to Ryder.
"Well, we need to go now. We've got something important to do." The captain said as he and the crew walked away.
A while later, most of the PAW Patrol were back at the hotel while Miranda and Azura were still searching for Skye. Chase sat in the corner of the room he shared with Ryder while Jessica, Ethan and Ella were talking to the boy.
"Wow, son, I'm impressed. I never knew you could drive, or even that your vehicle can transform like that." Ethan complimented.
"Well, it can, dad. And it's even better on snow where it transforms into a snowmobile." Ryder added.
"And to think that my son is the leader of the rescue team. I would so want to hug you." Ella exclaimed.
"I know, but we're still searching for Skye. Speaking of..." Ryder said as he pulled out his pup-pad. "Miranda, Azura, did you find her?"
"No. I gave up after an hour, but Miranda isn't willing to give up. I don't know why, but she doesn't want to go back until she finds her." Azura explained.
"I see. Well, keep searching; search the town if you have to. I need to comfort Chase."
"You got it, Ryder." Azura replied as she ended the call.
Meanwhile, the captain and his crew were doing their best to take care of Skye. Ever since they brought her back to the ship, she's been whimpering. Eventually, one of the medics approached her while the others were at the restaurant.
"Are you okay, little pup?" He asked. Skye sighed.
"No, I'm not."
"What is it?" The medic asked.
"I… I just miss my friends and my owner." Skye replied sadly.
"Oh, and who is your owner?"
"Ryder."
"Oh. And where are they now?"
"Probably at the hotel."
Then something popped in the medic's head. "Would you like me to call your owner? Maybe that way he'll know where you are."
Skye lit up. "Really? You would do that?! Oh, thank you!" She exclaimed as she jumped into the medic's arms and began licking his face.
"Hehehehehe! Okay, okay, calm down." The medic giggled as he put her down before pulling out his phone. "I just hope he's not asleep."
