I'ts Alive! Sorry it took so long to update. No excuses.

Enjoy!

"I didn't even know you had a brother, Katie." Skye said focusing her pink tinged eyes on the girl.

Cam looked at the pup. "That's my fault." He said to the pup. "I'm pretty good at what I do at the agency and I've put a lot of bad guys in jail and made a few powerful enemies. If any of them knew I had a little sister, it would put her in danger." He wrapped his arm around her waist, and then kissed her on the top of her head. "I couldn't put my only family in danger like that. . . That's why most of the people at the agency don't even know I have a sister."

"I haven't told any of you for the same reason, because it's safer that you don't know." Katie nodded.

"In fact, if anybody asks you about me, I was never here and I don't exist." Cameron said. "Okay?"

Ryder nodded. "Consider us sworn to secrecy, right pups?"

"You got it, Ryder sir." Chase said as the others nodded.

Cam smiled wide. "Thanks guys." He turned to Ryder, "What's the plan?" He asked.

As the teen explained the situation, the man's eyes narrowed in thought. He turned to Jake. "You said one of the men came to talk to you?" When the other man nodded, Cam asked. "Describe him for me, please."

"Okay?" Jake said raising an eyebrow. He wasn't sure of how it would help, but he did it anyway. "He was in his thirties I guess, short brown hair with brown eyes, and he was about my height." He looked up at the sky for a moment. "Oh, and he had a beard."

Cam nodded and smiled. "I know him." He said as he turned to the others. "His name is Ben 'Stone' Mason." The man narrowed his ocean blue eyes. "I don't think he is working alone though."

Chase tilted his head to one side, "Why not?"

"Because Mason is more muscle than brains if you know what I mean." Cam said. Then after a moment, he gave a smile. "He isn't smart enough to pull off something like this, so he's probably working for somebody." Cam turned to Ryder, "But who?"

After thinking for a moment, Ryder shook his head. "I don't know. . . But right now, that's not important . . . We need to get Dundee back." The leader looked around to see all the pups nodding.

"You're right, Ryder." Cam said, "What's the plan?"

Ryder went on to explain about the drones, which Cam was very impressed by, then looked at Chase. "Change in plans." He said looking at the mix-breed. "Rocky, you're with me. And Chase, you go with Cam and Jake." Then he focused his eyes on Katie's ocean blue ones. "Can you stay with Skye?"

The blonde nodded. "Sure."

"Thanks. . ." Suddenly, he couldn't take his eyes off her.

"Ahem?" Cam said, and then cleared his throat. "Ryder, shouldn't we start?"

Ryder and Katie blushed at the same time. "Uh, yea. . ." he said finally taking his eyes off of her and focusing on Cam. "Okay, let's go!"

Marshall stirred, and the opened his blue eyes. He looked around to see Drake resting comfortably at the end to the room. Then his eyes rested on the ebony pup in the bed next to him. A split second later, he realized her brown-gold eyes were looking at him. "Hi," he said smiling. "I'm Marshall."

Isis smiled. "I know." She glanced at the husky curled up asleep in a nearby chair. "Everest told me."

As Marshall focused his eyes Everest as well, he felt tears spring to his eyes. "This has all been very hard on her."

"The two of you are close." She said. It was more of a statement then a question.

On cue, the Dalmatian nodded. "I feel like she's like my little sister. . . Skye too, but. . ."

"There's a special bond between the two of you." Isis said. When Marshall nodded, the Doberman spoke again. "That's a wonderful thing to have. . . " Her voice trailed off as the thought of a fond memory. After a few moments, she shook her head slightly to bring herself back to the present. "Anyway. . ." She cast her eyes on the grey-brown wolf. "Tell me about Drake."

The Dalmatian wanted to ask her what she had been thinking about, but decided that it wasn't his place. "Well. . . He only became a member of the Paw Patrol a few months ago, so we don't know much about his past." He focused his blue eyes on the ceiling. "Actually, now that I think about it, we don't know anything about his past."

"Really?" she asked, casting her gold eyes on him. When he nodded, Isis focused them back on Drake, "Interesting."

Marshall nodded. "We all have things in our past we want to forget." He said, echoing what Ryder had told him only a few hours ago.

"That's very true." Isis said nodding.

Ryder cast his brown eyes at the colors of the sunset sky. Even though he knew that in a few minutes the colors would fade away into the dark colors of the night, he had a plan. He opened his pup pad. "Jake, are you there?"

A second later, Jakes face appeared on the screen. "I'm here Ryder, how's it going?"

"Nothing yet," Ryder shook his head. "But we've been searching all day and there's not much left to search . . . We've got to be getting close." He looked up at the sky again. "It's going to get dark soon, so we need to meet up." He glanced at the mix breed. "Rocky brought night vision goggles for everyone."

Before Jake could say anything, Cam appeared on the screen behind him. "Way to think ahead." He said smiling.

"I wasn't a pup scout for nothing." Rocky said smiling as well. "I am always prepared."

Ryder smiled at the pup, and then looked back at the screen. "You guys stay put, we'll come to you."

A few minutes later, as Rocky gave everyone goggles, Ryder focused his eyes on Jake and Cameron. "Have you found anything?"

The other two men shook their heads. "Not yet," Cam said with a sigh.

Jake flashed a small smile. "Well at least our search area is getting smaller."

"There is that, I guess." Cameron said giving a small as well. After a moment, something occurred to him. "Do you keep a record of all the cabins on the mountain?"

Jake nodded. "Sure." A split second later, Ryder caught on to what Cam was thinking.

"No one is allowed to build on your land except you, right Jake?" Ryder asked.

The man focused his blue-grey eyes on Ryder and nodded, "Right."

"And, to get a phone signal. . . " Rocky added.

Jake put his head to his forehead and gave it a light tap. "Dundee is in one of the cabins on the mountain!"

"That's what I would do." Cameron shrugged. "It's kinda like hiding in plain sight."

Jake shook his head. "More like hiding right under my nose."

Ryder reached out and placed his hand on Jakes shoulder and squeezed. "You've had a lot on your mind, you know."

"I should have thought of it sooner." Jake said.

"Me too," Ryder said nodding. "But we can't change that."

"All we can do now," Cameron said, "is search the cabins."

What do you think?
