The pups and Ryder arrived at the scene a short while later. Gathered under the tower was Mayor Goodway and some citizens, all were staring up at the top of the water tower.
Chickaletta was stranded at the top, clucking for help.
"Oh thank goodness you are here Ryder! Please save my Chickaletta!" Mayor Goodway said frantically.
"Don't worry Mayor we'll have Chickalleta down in no time." Ryder said while putting a hand on her shoulder for reassurance.
"I know you will Ryder, that's why I called you. Please just hurry." Mayor Goodway said with a slight hint of worry in her voice.
"Okay Chase I need you to use your megaphone and tell the people to back up." Ryder said the Chase.
"On it Ryder sir. Ruff ruff megaphone." At those words the megaphone appeared out of the pups pack.
"Okay everyone I need you all to back up five steps please." The crowd did as it was told and backed up from the tower.
"Thank you Chase." Ryder said to the pup. "Now Marshall I need you to use your ladder to get to the top of the tower and get Chickaletta down." He said to Marshall.
"Okay." He climbed up onto his vehicle. "Ruff ruff ladder." The ladder began to ascend up to the top of the tower.
"Be careful Marshall!" Ryder told the pup. Worrying about how high up the tower was.
"No problem Ryder, I'm always care-" As soon as he got to the second peg of the ladder he slipped and ended up on the ground.
"Ow!" He whimpered after landing badly on his leg. He held his paw tightly in pain.
"Marshall!" Both the pups and Ryder yelled and immediately ran over to the injured pup.
Ryder bent down to Marshall's level and looked at the Dalmatian's face scrunched up in pain. "Where does it hurt the most Marshall?" Ryder asked. "M-My foot." Marshall answered, a tear appearing at the corner of his eye.
Ryder examined the injured pup's foot for a couple of seconds and came to a conclusion.
"Is he ok Ryder?" Rocky asked the boy with concern for his brother.
"I'm pretty sure he sprained his ankle." Ryder said with a frown. "How does your ankle feel Marshall?" Ryder asked the Dalmatian.
"It hurts a lot and its throbbing a little." Marshall told Ryder.
"Hmm…well we need to get him to Katie so she can bandage your ankle." Ryder told Marshall.
"Oh well you guys finish the job first and then you can take me. Chickaletta takes priority, besides it's not like I'm going to die from a sprained ankle. Right?" He asked with a little concern, questioning his own reassurance.
"No Marshall you're not going to die from your injury. Are you sure you can wait?" Ryder asked the pup a little skeptical.
"Ya I'm sure." Marshall said with a smile.
"That's very brave and kind of you Marshall, thank you." Ryder told the fire pup.
"Okay so we still need to get Chickaletta down from the top. Hmm." Ryder thought for a solution.
"I'll go up Ryder." Rocky volunteered.
"You sure you want to?" Ryder asked
"Ya I'm sure, someone has to do it." Rocky said with a smile and began to climb up onto Marshall's truck.
"Just please be careful Rocky." Ryder told Rocky.
A million thoughts were all of the sudden running through the german shepard's mind. Please be careful, please be careful, please be careful, please be careful. He kept repeating the same thing over and over again in his head. He didn't understand why all of the sudden he was so worried about the gray pup. He wasn't even this worried when Marshall was climbing up the ladder.
"Yep." Rocky answered back to Ryder.
He continued to climb up the ladder, the whole time being extra careful, till he got to the top of the tower. When he was finally standing on the platform surrounding the water tower he looked around for the chicken but very quickly found her.
"Hey Chickaletta, are you ok?" He asked the chicken. All he got back was a couple of clucks. "I'll take that as a yes then.' Marshall said, smiling a little.
"Alright Chickaletta come here so I can strap this harness around you." Rocky walked up to the chicken and strapped the harness around her.
"Ok Ryder I have Chickaletta and I am ready to lower her down to you." Rocky said into the tag on his collar.
"Alright Rocky, good job, began lowering whenever you are ready." Was the answer he got back from the tag.
"Ok Chickaletta, are you ready?" Rocky asked the chicken, and yet again all he got back were some clucks. At that he began lowering the chicken down to the ground.
After about two minutes of slow lowering Chickaletta was safe on the ground and in no time in Mayor Goodway's arms in a tight embrace.
"Good job Rocky! You can go ahead and head down now." Rocky heard from his collar.
With pleasure he thought to himself and began to walk towards the ladder.
Right before he got to the ladder he slipped on a puddle that was on the platform and was sent off the edge and was soon hurdling towards the ground.
The first thing to go through his mind was fear of his impending death but the next thing was him thinking about how he never even got to tell him…
"Huh!" The crowd gasped.
Without even a second thought Chase sprang into action and quickly as he could speak and run got his net out and caught the pup just before he hit the ground.
Rocky had covered his eyes out of fear, and when he thought that he should have hit by now and didn't fell himself falling, removed one of his paws and looked to see he was in a net, Chase's net. He then looked up to see Chase panting and with a look of total and udder fear in his eyes.
Chase stared into Rocky's eyes, happy that he had caught him. It began to run through his mind what would he have done if Rocky had died. Why was he caring about Rocky so much all of a sudden? He ended up admiring the recycling pup's hazel eyes and the nice spot around his eye. But before he could continue to admire, the person he was admiring quickly wrapped his paws around Chase's neck, snapping him out of it.
"Thank you so much Chase! You saved my life!" Rocky thanked his savior and hugged him tight.
"No problem Rocky, I'm just glad you are alright." Chase said, nuzzling the side of Rocky's neck affectionately.
Ryder ran over to where the pups were hugging. "Great catch Chase! Are you alright Rocky?" He asked the gray pup, highly concerned.
"Ya I'm ok thanks to Chase." Rocky said, causing Chase to blush a little.
The crowd cheered for the Rocky's wellbeing and the saving of Chickaletta.
Mayor Goodway said thankyou once again to Ryder and the pups and went away with Chickaletta in her arms.
Rocky then used some of the recyclables he had to temporarily fix the ladder.
"Ok Marshall it's time to get you to Katie's to help your leg." Ryder told the injured pup.
"Ok." Said Marshall with a smile.
They then loaded Marshall onto Chase's truck and Chase attached the wench to Marshall's vehicle so he could tow it to Katie's then back to the outlook.
