A/N: Here's the next chapter. Also, I apologize for the delay of the other story and that one-shot, so much is going on right now that the progress is going slow. But don't worry, I will finish that story eventually. Anyway, read, review and enjoy.

CHAPTER 2: REUNITED

Meanwhile, the pups got into gear and into positions in the cab of the PAW Patroller.

"PAW Patrol, ready for action, Ryder, sir!" Chase announced.

"Pups, we need to act fast." Ryder said seriously. "A hotel on the East side of town is on fire. We don't know if anyone is still inside, so we need to hurry." He then scrolled to the following icons:

"Chase, I need you to use your cones and megaphone to secure the perimeter so no one approaches the hotel."

"Chase is on the case!" Chase shouted.

"I'll also need Trigger and Chief's help with that."

"You got it, Ryder!" Shouted the two in unison.

"Marshall and Misty, I need your fire trucks and hoses to put out the fire. Also, Marshall, take the spare EMT gear in case someone is injured."

"I'm fired up!" Marshall shouted.

"Ready to spray!" Misty shouted.

"Skye, if there are people in the burning hotel, they'll most likely head to the roof. I need you to use your harness to airlift them to safety."

"Let's take to the sky!" Skye shouted with a back-flip.

"Miranda and Brian? I need you two to assist Marshall and Misty with putting out the fire. You'll have to ride with them though."

"We're on it!" Shouted the two.

"The rest of you can follow along in the PAW Patroller; also stand by in case we need you. PAW Patrol is on a roll!"

The firefighters and Linda arrived at the scene and were amazed at the height of the hotel. Despite that, the team got to work, but no matter how much they sprayed, the fire wasn't going down. Then Linda turned to the hotel staff.

"How many of them are trapped inside?" She asked.

"I think 5 or 6 of them." The cook replied.

"OK, thanks." Linda said before she got back to work. But, then…

"Hey, does anyone hear that?" Ben asked.

The other firefighters indeed heard some weird noises, but when they turned to the road, their eyes went wide. A group led by a kid on the ATV, 3 police trucks, 2 fire trucks and a helicopter entered the scene and got to work. Chase tossed the cones around the hotel and patrolled the perimeter with Trigger and Chief doing the same. Skye flew higher to check the roof, and when she did, she reported.

"Ryder! There are 5 guests on the roof of the hotel! I think I can get them out, but I'll need to be careful! Too much smoke could cause the engine failure!"

"Alright, Skye, but be careful!" Ryder answered.

"Roger that!"

While Skye focused with the guests, Marshall, Misty, Miranda and Brian got to work with putting out the fire. Naturally, some of the firefighters were confused with the newcomers; Linda among them.

Who are those guys? And what are…? Then she noticed her daughter. What?! My daughter is a fire pup already? She thought, not being able to believe what she saw. I may need to talk to her after this. With that thought, Linda got back to work.

Half an hour later, The PAW Patrol and the fire department managed to put out the fire and save the guests. One of the firefighters, Ben, approached the boy.

"Thanks for the assistance. Without you, these civilians would have been burned alive." He said.

"Anytime. Whenever you're in trouble, just yelp for help!" Ryder exclaimed.

While Ryder was talking with Ben, Linda found Misty and decided to talk to her alone.

"Misty, we need to talk." Misty jumped at the voice and turned around.

"God, mom, you scared me!" She exclaimed.

"I know, but you couldn't tell me you're a fire pup now, could you?" She asked, making Misty blush in embarrassment.

"I… I…" Misty tried to speak, afraid of her mother's reaction.

Suddenly, Linda pulled her in a hug. "Relax, I'm not mad at you, just surprised, that's all." Misty sighed in relief.

"Sorry I didn't tell you. Guess I forgot." She replied.

"It's okay. Now, have you made a decision about what I asked you?" Linda asked.

Misty was really nervous now. How will she refuse the offer without breaking her mother's heart? But before she even had a chance to answer…

"Come on, Misty, we need to go!" Shouted a voice, making Linda freeze.

"Coming!"Misty shouted before turning to Linda. "Sorry, mom, but I still need to think. We'll be at the hotel at this address in case you want to come." Then, she left her a piece of paper with an address of the hotel before running off.

Linda, however, was still frozen in place. When she snapped out of her trance, she still had shock in her eyes. "Was that him? No way! He's dead. I must be hearing things. But, I do have an address so I can visit my daughter." Linda said to herself as she walked off.

After the mission, Linda decided to visit her daughter at the hotel. She still was confused about what happened at the scene, but shook it off. When she reached the hotel, before she could even approach the doors, someone bumped into her.

"Ow! What's the big idea?" She asked.

"Sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going." The voice caused Linda to stop. Her eyes went wide as she saw a Dalmatian slowly walking back to the hotel. No way! It's him! Linda thought before getting the dog's attention.

"Marshall?!" She exclaimed, causing the Dalmatian to stop in shock. How does the dog know his name? He slowly turned around and gasped.

"Oh, my God! M-mom?! Is that you?" Marshall asked in shock, tears pooling in his eyes.

Linda could feel her own eyes fill with tears as she rushed over and hugged him. "Yes! It's me, son! Oh, man, I thought you were dead!" She exclaimed as she nuzzled him, crying tears of joy.

"M-mom… I-I don't know what to say. I missed you so much!" Marshall exclaimed as he hugged back. He didn't know what to do at the moment. Then, he had an idea.

"Hey, mom, would you like to meet my friends? I'm sure they would love to meet you!" He offered.

Linda nodded. "Sure, son. Lead the way."

After 5 minutes, the two came to the hotel room everyone was in and entered. The pups then looked at Linda in confusion.

"Uh, Marshall, who is…?" Before Azura could finish the question, however…

"Hey, mom! Thank you for coming." Misty exclaimed, causing mixed reactions from the team: most of the pups, minus Skye, Misty and Marshall fainted, the adults had their eyes wide and their jaws dropped, and Ryder spat out the water he was drinking in shock. Only Skye was able to speak.

"Wait a minute! This Dalmatian is your and Marshall's mother?!" She asked in shock.

"Of course, and I'm guessing you're my children's friends." Linda replied.

"Friends and a boyfriend." Misty corrected, causing Linda to whip her head to her in shock.

"WHAT?! You have a boyfriend? Who is it?" Linda asked in shock.

"Zuma." Misty simply replied. Linda was so shocked, it caused her to faint.

A/N: As you can see, it worked out. The fire has been put out, Linda finally reunites with Marshall and she meets the rest of her children's friends. But Misty still needs to decide wether to leave her friends or stay with them. What's going to happen? Find out in the next chapter.
