Chapter 20: Judgement Day

Ryder still sits on the ground holding Rocky's body, the pups all mourn over him. All apart from Everest and Chase, tears appear in Marshall's eyes but he doesn't let them fall.

Pedz kneels down, "Brother we cannot stay here, we must go."

"I can't leave him." Ryder says kissing Rocky's head. "Wendy would want to see him."

"I can have his body taken back to Adventure Bay." Pedz suggests, Ryder nods in agreement. "I am so sorry Ryder, he was a good pup."

"What!? No he wasn't!" Everest yells as Anna places her on the ground.

Anna shakes her head at Everest before kneeling besides Ryder, "How long has he been gone for?"

"A few minutes mate." Silvera says for Ryder.

"Then there's still time," Anna takes Rocky's body off of Ryder and lays it on the ground, she pulls out different equipment from her medical bag. "I need space."

'I need space,' Rocky hears a voice say, he opens his eyes and all he sees is white. "W-Where am I?"

"A place after death" A woman appears dressed in white.

"Am I dead?" He swallows hard, "Who are you? Are you an Angel."

"It matters not who I am Rocky," She says kneeling in front of him. "This is your judgement, on whether or not we send you back."

"We?" Rocky tilts his head staring at her.

The woman smiles, "I am not the one who will judge you on you're actions."

Rocky rubs his forehead, "If its not you, then who is it?"

She steps to the side, revealing...

"Long time no see, Rocky." Silvex said, standing before him in armor of Platinum

"S-Silvex...?" Rocky gulps then looks up at the woman, "He's my judge?"

"Yes Rocky, only he has the power to bring you back to life," She says but Rocky lowers his head. "You doubt yourself?"

Rocky nods, "I deserve this,"

"It is now, you will be judged. Now you will be judged for every sin, crime, and wrong you have committed. Now you will be judged for every act of kindness, generosity, and right you have committed. You judgement day, is now."

"No! I deserve to die Silvex, please just let me die." Rocky begs lowering his head, "I don't deserve to live."

The woman kneels in front of him and places her hand under his chin lifting it up, "Everyone deserves a second chance, even you."

Rocky pulls his face away from her grasp. "No you're wrong, Silvex I should be dead."

"I am only here to decide if you do live or die." Silvex had a long glare into Rocky's eyes. "Rocky. Do you really wish to die?"

The woman waves her hand and Rocky sees his future with Wendy by his side, and his pups. "If you die Rocky, this future will not happen, Wendy will be-"

"But if I don't die, Chase and Everest will just try to kill me over and over," Rocky sits down, tears filling his eyes.

"Rocky, Chase had a chance to kill you, your life was in his paws. But he did not kill you, you are the one who took your own life." The woman sighs and turns to Silvex, "He is hurting, his heart is broken."

"I have tried, and I have failed. As powerful as I may be, I'm simply no good at this kind of stuff,"

"Silvex, you are the only one who can judge him. Everything Rocky has done, all the bad, and all the good." The woman turns to Rocky, "Have faith, for every black cloud has a silver lining."

Rocky clears his throat then speaks up, "I don't want to die, I really don't. But they all hate me, I tried to kill Marshall in the past... I-I'm afraid that I could do it again.."

"Have faith in yourself Rocky..." Silvex said

"You know how many times I tried to kill him, and Chase but you'd give me another chance?" Rocky looks up at him,

"Yes. It shows that even I have faith in you Rocky," Silvex smiled

The woman stands up, "Rocky, do you wish for Silvex to carry out your judgement?" She asks, he nods. "We must hear you say it."

"I do,"

"Then Silvex, the rest is up to you." The woman stands behind him.

Silvex turned his back to Rocky

"I-if he decides I-I die, what happens to me?" Rocky asks wiping tears from his eyes.

"I do not know the answer to your question Rocky." The woman looks at Silvex, "This is your choice, he lives or dies in up to you." She whispers so Rocky doesn't hear her. "I believe he can and will change I have seen his future."

Silvex stands there for a very long time. "Rocky"

Rocky sighs looking at the white ground beneath him, "It's ok Silvex, I'm fully responsible for what I did do Marshall, and I'll accept any punishment."

"If I pardon you from death, how will I know you will make amends with Marshall?"

"he wouldn't accept anything I say, Silvex, Marshall and the other pups think I tried to hurt him again..." Rocky lowers his head, "How can I make amends when he wouldn't accept it?"

Silvex remained silent "I have made my decision. , Silvex, hereby do NOT elect you a second chance Rocky the eco-pup."

Rocky looks up at him, "Whhhaaa?"

"You have received your judgement. I have not given you a second chance at life, not only because of what you have done, but more like... Putting you out of your misery."

"it's what I deserve," Rocky says, wiping tears which fall from his eyes.

The woman kneels down next to him, "no one deserves to die Rocky, at least not from their own paws/hands,"

Rocky sits there and cries, "Im sorry,"

"I'm sorry I and to bring this upon you," Silvex said. "I will have to tell the others."

Then the voices of Ryder and the pups are heard.

Ryder holds Rocky's body crying into his fur, "I'm so sorry Rocky, I failed as a leader."

"It's your fault Ryder." Rubble says but Ryder shakes his head.

"Yes it is, I wasn't there for him when I should have been." Ryder looks up at Pedz, "I failed, failed to protect him. After everything that happened, I failed to protect him from himself, he doesn't deserve to die."

Anna frowns, "I am sorry too, I couldn't bring him back."

"It's my fault." A voice says, one Rocky didn't think he'd hear. "I couldn't forgive Rocky for what he did to Marshall, because I couldn't... Couldn't... Couldn't... forgive him, he's gone... And it's my fault, Ryder sir, if anyone is to blame it's me..." Chase cries loudly, "I wanted to believe Rocky's changed, but I was blinded by my hatred."

Everest's voice is next to be heard. "It's not only you Chase, I was scared so scared of losing Marshall again, I couldn't see Rocky was trying to change... Rocky where-ever you are, I'm sorry."

"If there's someone out there, who can hear us. Please bring Rocky back." Another voice begs which belongs to Marshall.

Anna takes Rocky from Ryder, "I have to get his body to our HQ,"

Ryder shakes his head, "He can't be gone, everything he's been through.. He just can't be gone.. Pups, I-I don't think I can lead you anymore."

Rocky breaks down in tears hearing them, "I shouldn't have killed myself, because I did they're all suffering." he cries loudly.

Silvex then did the unthinkable. He laughed, loudly.

Rocky looks up at Silvex, while the Woman raised a brow.

"Now... Now you see just how Important you mean to everyone! Now you see it, no one really wants you to die! Now, now you see everyone's true feelings."

"I don't understand, how can they think that of me? After everything I did?" Rocky looks up at Silvex

"After all that, they can't bring themselves to have you. They still love you rocky."

Rocky cries again lowering his head, "why, why do they still love me..."

"Because they are and always will be your family," the woman says now standing next to Silvex, "there is no emotion stronger then Love."

"I could not agree more. Love, and friendship, will always be stronger than hatred."

The woman nods in agreement, she smiles at Silvex.

"I-i don't want to die, I want to prove to them I've changed," Rocky says tears still falling from his eyes.

"Then I grant you a second Chance Rocky."

"but you already judged me," Rocky says confused.

"What? I'm not allowed to change the rules? What kind of demigod would I be if I played by the rules?"

The woman chuckles then smiles, "indeed,"

"I guess your allowed to, and Silvex? Who is she?" Rocky questions curiously

"Nothing you need to know. Now go..." Silvex said, waving his hand around

The woman kneels in front of Rocky, "This is a warning, we do not want to see you here again, there will be no third chances, do you understand?"

Rocky nods, before running up to Silvex and hugs him "thank you,"

"Oh you," Silvex said, returning the hug.

It was only now Rocky realized Silvex was more or less in the shape of a human, but still a dog?

Rocky hugs him tightly then looks up at him, "I like this form," he smiles. "Um Silvex? How do I go back?"

Silvex chuckled, and closed Rocky's eyes.

In the real world... Rocky's eyes opened suddenly, and he sat up.

Elsewhere, a half Wolf half Husky with an army like pup-pack on, stands on a hill using goggles to witness Rocky waking up.

"Is he still alive?"

"Yes, he very much alive." The pup smirks, "But not for long."

"Shadowblazed we need him alive, you can eliminate anyone else who stands in your way but not him, also cripple this park."

Shadowblazed huffs, "You're no fun, but fine. Do I have permission to end Natalie?"

It's silence for a few minutes, "No, bring her back to us along with Rocky. We need both alive."

"So be it, they won't know what hit them." Shadowblazed smirks, pressing a button on his paw he vanishes. "I'm coming for you PAW Patrol."
