Chapter 2

Rocky's POV

Marshall... I couldnt get that name out of my head, But after what happend that day I just cant get the thoughts out of my mind. I wanted him back...I wanted Mashall just. To see his eyes again would be enough. Rockys eyes begin to water as he rememebers what has happend.

- I had just started walking back from my favorite spot to read, but since the sun was starting to go down I needed to head back to the lookout before it got dark. By the time I had gotten home all the pups , includeing Ryder, were already in there rooms. After getting a drink, i decided to do the same , only something strange happened. As I lie there trying to go to sleep I hear Marshall makeing some noise amost like he was talking to someone so i decided to go check on him just to see if he was ok. "Marshall, are you ok" Rocky whisper to the half asleep Dalmatian. "...Rocky...I...lo...", Marshall said in a barely audible voice. "What" Rocky said getting closer to Marshall. Now Hovering over Marshall, Rocky whispered again. "Marsh- ,Whoa!" before Rocky could finish Marshall had grabbed on to him and pulled him into an embrace. "Marshall" Rocky whispered try to get out of Marshalls hold, but that only made Marshall cling tighter. I sighed as got comfortable laying next to my best friend. To be honest i actually enjoyed being next to Marshall. The way he was holding me I could hear his heart beating. Out of instinct, I guess, I got closer to Marshall just listening to his heartbeat. He eventually curled around me wraping his tail around me. His fur was so soft and warm it made me "Purr" a bit. I finally fell asleep after about five minutes.

When morning broke I could feel Marshall start to wake up, but i didnt want to move. He was so warm and soft I felt like I was protected from everything else in the world. "Rocky?" Marshall said with a confused look on his face. It took me a second to respond till i realised i was in Marshalls bed. "Huh?" Rocky says with a drowsy look on his face still not fully awake. I raised my head not knowing how far Marshall actually was to me and then IT happend. When I looked up, Marshalls and My muzzle and lips connected. We stayed like this for about five second not actually knowwing what was he snaped back into reality and jumped away from me, Marshalls cheek turned so red that they matched his uniform. "...What?" Rocky said still groggy and confused. Marshall looked like he was trying to form words but couldnt. I looked down, then back at Marshall, then back down untill I realised what had happen. "Umm...Hey Marshall" Rocky said with a nervous laugh getting out of his friends bed. "W-Why were you sleeping with me?" Marshall said in a shaky embaressed tone still blushing bright red. "...Well...Last night you were talking to me in your sleep so I went to check on you. You grabbed me and pulled me into your bed and didnt let go...so I fell asleep...". Marshalls face got even redder and an akwards silence set in. "...Im sorry Rocky" Marshall said looking down to the ground. "Heh its ok Marshall" Rocky said walking over to Marshall. He looked really embarrased so i gave him a hug which seemed to cheer him up. "Come on lets-" Our Collars Rang cutting off Rocky. -Paw Patrol too the look out!- We could tell there was a sence of ugency in his voice so we rushed to get ready as fast as we could. By the time we got there everyone was in their uniform ready to go. "Alright pups, this is a serious emergency. A fire has broken out in City Hall trapping Mayor Goodway and Chickaletta inside. Marshall, we need you and your water canons to put out the fire." Ryder says. "Right" Marshall replys. "Chase, we need you to block off traffic so bypassers dont get injured." "Im on it" says Chase "Skye, we need you to be our eyes from the sky" "Hm" Skye nods " And rocky I need you and your claw to ride with Marshall. You'll pick up and debris that has fallen" "Got it" When Ryder says that I notice that Marshalls tail started to wag. "Ok pups, peoples lives are involved here so we cant afford to make any mistakes." All the dogs agreed. Chase, Skye , and Marshall all went to thier seprate cars except me. I had to ride with Marshall to reduce congestion.

We all raced to City hall as fast as we could. The sky was filled with smoke from the fiery building. We got out of our cars and looked at the inferno that once was the beautiful City Hall."Marshall, Rocky, Mayor Goodway is still inside! You need to go get them out before the building collapses." We both nod and head in to the blaze. We make our way through the flames coughing untill we reach the mayors office where Mayor Goodway was hideing from the fires. Just as we get to the room, a wooden plank fall at the entrance blocking our path. "Ruff, Claw Arm!" I say as my metalic arm comes out of my rescue backpack. I move the beam that blocked our path out of the way. Thank God it wasnt too heavy. Marshall signals Chase to Bring the ladder to the window. The mayor procceds to go down the ladder untill she suddenly stops. "Chickaletta, Chickeletta! My Chickeletta's still inside!" Me and Marshall search the room looking for the chicken until a faint "bock" is heard on top of the bookshelf. "There you are" Marshall says as he grabs the chicken. We both race to the ladder as fast as we could but there was a problem. The flames made the ladder Extremely hot causeing Marshall to burn himself."OW" Marshall says while his paw starts to blister. "We need to find another way now!" Rocky says noticing the building is about to collaspe on itself. "Mayor, Catch!" Marshall says tossing the chicken to Mayor Goodway. Me and Marshall rush to the exit. We see the light from outside. It seemed like a mile away with all the burning debis around us. Running and coughing we run as fast as we can dodgeing the fallen objects that are now ablaze. "We're almost there!" Rocky says. I could smell the fresh air. "We've made i-" Rocky thinks to himself but is stopped falling to the floor.

Why cant i see anything. Rocky gets up and looks around. " A huge beam feel...somethings under it. "Rocky gets up and staggers toward the fallen beam that was on fire."...No..." Rocky says getting closer the Object."...No..." The object becomes fully clear makeing Rocky scream. "MARSHALL!..."-
