I have no excuses for you guys, it's just that I've been too focused on my other stories that I totally forgot my first one. First, thank you all that support this story, I'm afraid that some of you already leaved me, sorry again.
And special thanks to the last 3 reviewers: Camron, Eleets and UPDAAAAAAAAATE; these guys made me open my eyes and say "Man, of course I'm not going to end this soon. This story has so much more to give and I won't give up with it."
Hope you enjoy this chapter.
The sun rises again, just as the PAW Patrol ready for another day. But not all the pups were thinking about missions or play; some of them were concerned about other issues.
The previous night, the pups had a pajama party in the tower; they all slept in the living room with their sleeping bags. As always, Chase woke them up.
"Wake up, pups!" he exclaimed. Skye, Everest and Marshall slowly started to wake up, but Rocky, Rubble and Zuma didn't move from their sides.
"Hey guys! Come on, it's a beautiful day here." Marshall said. The three growled a little; they looked very tired.
"What's wrong with you guys?" asked Everest. Rocky tried to stand up so as Zuma.
"Rocky…?" Zuma spoke.
"Yeah…?"
"Never…bring your energy drink to a party…Ever." He said trying to keep his food inside of his stomach.
"Believe me, I won't- uh-oh" Rocky tried to say, but he felt something trying to go out from him and quickly ran away in direction to the bathroom. Soon, the others felt the same.
"Uh-oh." Rubble and Zuma said.
"Run!" And both followed Rocky to the bathroom.
"I guess they are going to lose their breakfast" Marshall joked making the others laugh, when they heard Ryder.
"Breakfast is ready, pups!"
"Speaking of."
When they went to the kitchen, they saw Ryder eating and checking some things in his pup pad.
"Oh, there you are. Where are the others?" Ryder said turning off his pup pad.
"Zuma said something about Rocky's energy drink and-"
"Ugh, I already told him; that recipe has too much effervescent." He said as he drank his cup of coffee.
"So… what happened between you and Katie last night?" Chase inquired. Ryder's coffee almost returns to his cup for the question, he cleared his throat and answered.
"Ehmm- *cough* it was fine."
"Just fine?"
"Y-yeah, Uhmm- I better go to check the others." He said as he ran out of the kitchen. The pups laughed.
"I'll ask Katie later." Skye spoke.
They all started to eat; Marshalls in the middle of Chase and Everest and Skye was next to Everest.
"So Marshall, when are you going to tell me?" Chase said. Marshall rolled his eyes.
"Can I at least end my breakfast?" He said in a noticeable anger tone. Chase got nervous.
"Oh, sorry."
"Tell about what?" Skye asked, not knowing about the current situation.
"Nothing important I think." Everest answered.
They ended their breakfast and made their way to the front yard. Marshall and Everest walked apart from Chase and Skye to talk. Skye sat next to a tree and lay down. Chase just stay in front of the tower and look with curious eyes at his best friend.
"Ok, what are they hiding from me? Now I'm more than sure that Everest was on the phone that day, but I have to hear it from him." He continued with his inner talk. "This is getting bored."
Then, he looked at his pup house as another not-so-elaborated plan popped on his head.
"If he doesn't want to tell me, what options he leaves me?" He thought. He doubted for a second, but his answers hunger was killing him. He even forgot one of the most important things in his life.
"Hey, Chase!" He heard a sweet voice calling him; he turned his head to see her. His crush, Skye.
"Wanna play with me?" She suggested in a playful tone with a ball on her paw. But Chase didn't make a big deal of it.
"Uhmm, I'm kind of busy now, Skye. Maybe later." He said in a calm and indifferent mood. Skye's heart broke a little; let's say she has a fissure on it now. Her ears dropped seeing him run to his pup house. Good for her that she has friends.
"Hey Skye! Over here!" Everest called her making a sign to her to pass the ball. Skye faked a smile and passed the ball to her, who rolled it to Marshall.
"Do you know what's wrong with Chase?" She asked. Marshall sighed and Everest answered.
"Not really."
"He seems like… distracted. I'm worried about him."
"He'll be fine." Marshall said comforting her. Skye smiled.
Meanwhile in Chase's pup house, he was getting ready for his own mission.
"Super Spy Chase is on the case!" He said already wearing his super spy gear. Disposed to know the secret, he went out of his pup house, but then.
"Pups, to the lookout!" They all heard Ryder calling them.
"Oh, come on, Ryder!" Chase exclaimed in anger, but he had no choice and made his way to the lookout.
"Ryder needs us!" The other exclaimed as they all headed to the lookout. Skye, Marshall and Everest ran to the tower, but Marshall didn't see the ball in front of him; on the elevator he was the only one missing. Stumbling one last time with the ball, he entered in the tower.
"Watch out!" He exclaimed but as always, made of his teammates a pup pile.
"This pile looks taller than usual." He commented as a voice came from the bottom.
"That's because of me." Everest said. They all laughed as the elevator closed its doors.
Already in the top of the tower, they all lined up in their usual spots.
"PAW Patrol ready for action, Rider sir!" Chase said in his usual respectful tone.
"Pups, we got an emergency; Farmer Al and Yumi's cows ran away from the farm and now they are lost."
"Poor Farmer Al and Yumi." Rubble commented.
"Skye!" Ryder spoke. "I need you to look from above, and call us if you find something."
"Let's take to the skies!"
"I also need… Chase!" He continued. "I need your megaphone and net if we… wait." Ryder took a look at his Shepherd.
"Is there any problem Ryder, sir?" Chase asked.
"Why are you on your super spy gear? I need police pup Chase for this case." Chase just stayed there in shock; what should he say without lying to not sound like a crazy stalker?
"Oh, ehmm, I-I…"
"Meh, I guess super spy Chase can be useful too." Ryder concluded.
"Y-Yeah. Super spy Chase is on the case!" Chase exclaimed still a little nervous.
"Ok… PAW Patrol is on a roll!"
"Anything Skye?" Ryder asked driving through the city looking for any clue of the missing cows.
"Nothing, Ryder." Skye answered. Ryder then called Chase.
"Chase, try to find something with your drone."
"I'm on it." Chase jumped off his vehicle. "Ruff; Drone!" He barked as the drone popped out of the truck. It made its way to the main street, but nothing appeared.
"I can't see them."
"Keep looking, they must be somewhere." Ryder said as ended the call. Chase kept looking.
"Nothing in the town hall, nothing in Mr. Porter's, not-" But then something catches his attention. There was white fur with black spots, but wasn't a cow.
"What are they doing there?" He saw to the image that his drone gave to him. Marshall and Everest were talking with Mr. Porter in his restaurant. The drone went closer to them.
"Ruff; microphone!" Chase baked as the drone's microphone activated to hear the conversation.
"Then everything is ready, pups." He heard Mr. Porter say. "7 o'clock, table 4."
"Thanks Mr. Porter." Marshall said.
"No problem, pups."
"We got to hurry; they probably should be finishing the mission." Everest said with worriedness.
"Right." Marshall said. "Bye Mr. Porter."
"Bye, pups."
"Oww, a nice dinner. At 7 o'clock, table 4." Of course Chase will be there. "Drone out!" He barked and his drone went out of the scene. The evil grin on Chase's face says all; he has a plan. But then.
"Chase, did you find something?" He heard Ryder calling him.
"No cows, sir."
"Just a Dalmatian and a Husky." He thought.
"Hey guys." Rocky received them. "Did you found the cows?"
"Yeah, as always." Skye said; she looks tired. "Just for the fact that Chase needs a bath now." Zuma was about to ask but the horrible smell coming from Chase shut him up.
"Oww, you really need a bath, dude." He said covering his nose with his paw.
"What happened?"
"After Skye found the cows, we gathered them and drove back to the farm." Ryder started. "But one of them tried to run away again. Chase followed her, but somehow, he came back with mud all over his fur. He could use his net, but he was on his spy gear." Chase rolled his eyes.
"I'm going to Katie's."
"After your bath, you are going to tell me why you were in your spy gear instead of your police gear." Ryder ordered heading back to the lookout with the other pups.
"Sure, Ryder."
"Ok Chase, you're ready." Katie said taking off the towel from Chase's fur.
"Thanks Katie." He said as he hopped off the table. Katie disposed to clean the mess around. Before leave, Chase turned his head; there was still one question without answer.
"So… How was your date last night?" He asked. Katie's hands, shaking a little, threw the shampoo that was on the table for Chase's bath and landed in Cali's fur. The kitty gasped and growled. Katie's voice got unclear; she cleaned her throat and answered.
"It-it was fine."
"Just fine?" Chase raised an eyebrow.
"Y-Yeah, Uhmm, It-It's time for Cali's bath!" She said picking up the wet-in-shampoo kitty on the floor. Chase laughed, but it wasn't only time for Cali's bath.
"Wait, what time is it?"
"Ehmm… 6:50." Chase recalled what he saw in his mission.
"Ok, I have to go now. Bye Katie."
"Bye."
Already in his pup house, Chase got ready for his own mission, again.
"Super Spy Chase is on the case! Again."
"Have you seen Chase? I can't find him anywhere." Asked Marshall.
"Wasn't he taking a shower at Katie's?"
"I'm going to check."
"Don't delay, it's almost time." Everest said; she didn't want to be late for this.
"Sure, I'll be right back."
Already in Mr. Porter's…
"I couldn't find him." Marshall said with his ears dropped.
"That's weird." Everest said. But actually, Chase was closer than they thought.
"Ok, let's see…" Chase parked his truck next to a building close to Mr. Porter's restaurant.
"Ruff; Drone!" He barked as his drone went out and made its way to the scene. There, Chase could see Marshall and Everest sitting on one of the tables. This table looks different than the others; it had a white blanket and candles, with flowers in the middle. Mr. Porter went to the table and served the food.
"They actually look kind of cute. Great move, Marshall." He thought looking at the scene.
"Now, let's hear. Ruff; microphone!" He barked and the drone's microphone activated as Chase ordered to get closer. There, he could listen.
"No, not yet." He heard Marshall say.
"And it was all planned already." Everest.
"But I guess that gives us more time to prepare everything."
"Prepare what?" Chase thought and motioned his drone to get even closer, but he was so distracted in the conversation that he didn't noticed the tree in front and the drone got stuck in the branches as it made the sound.
"Wait, heard that?" He heard Everest say.
"Drone out!" He tried to un-stuck his drone but he had no luck. But soon they forgot the event and went back to their dinner. Chase only could see them from the uncomfortable position the drone was.
When they were about to leave, Chase turned off the drone.
"Sorry little buddy, but I don't need you for now." He silently walked from behind the building to see them walking by the street.
"Now let's follow them." He said to himself as followed them.
For almost 10 minutes walking, they stopped next to a couple of trees. What they didn't know was that in those trees, was Chase, hiding from them and trying to eavesdrop on their conversation.
He hides with the branches, using the night to move without being noticed. Marshall and Everest started to talk for a while, but Chase couldn't hear anything.
But just when he was starting to hear something, Everest turned her view to the tree where he was. As quickly she did this, Chase hides his head.
"Did she saw me?!" He thought, but soon Everest attention turned again to the pup that was in front of her. Chase sighed in relief.
"False alarm."
All he could see was Everest and Marshall in front of each other, talking. Chase wondered what they were talking about, but her attitude changed. For a police/spy pup like him was easy to notice the sudden behavior changes, and this was one of them.
"What is she doing?" Chase thought. But now her attitude was noticeable different.
She approached her head to Marshall's right ear and whispered something; as the silent conversation was taking place, she placed her left paw in his right shoulder. Chase's curiosity couldn't be contained much longer, but what he was about to see satisfice that answers hunger.
With a quick move, Everest pulled back Marshall not letting him go as she approached her face to his; Marshall was getting nervous, with a look that screamed "What are you doing?" but he did not hesitate when she got closer and finally their lips landed on each other. Everest closed her eyes as Marshall tried to understand the situation; what he didn't know was that he wasn't the only male pup in shock.
Chase's jaw dropped to the floor as he stared in amusement to the scene. Now his doubts were cleared, everything was over. With a relieved look on his eyes, he let out a sigh as he continued staring at his best friend and his new mate.
"Mission accomplished." He said to himself as he went off the tree, heading back to the lookout with a big smile on his face.
But it wasn't over yet.
Yup, I'm back with this, hope you still follow this story and don't forget to leave your review.
