HEY GUYS THIS IS THE CHAPTER THAT DECIDES MARSHALL'S FATE I HOPE YOU LIKE IT ENJOY.
The search began when all of the saddened pups, especially Everest, were ready. Ryder held up Marshall's pup pack so the pups could get his scent. Everest was teary eyed the second she got his scent, but held back the tears. Ryder gave the command and the pups, plus Ryder, Alex, and Jake began the search to find Marshall.
All the pups sniffed and sniffed but not even Chase could get his scent. Everest strayed away from the group closer to the cliff were he fell and as she looked back before the fall, he was so scared, but the look in his eyes showed he was more scared of her falling than himself. The way he looked at her before he told her to remember him she could tell he was more sorry than scared. But the fact that he sacrificed himself for her made her feel like it was her fault and the more she thought about it, the more she believed it was her fault.
It was her fault the rock fell, she should have known the rock was loose. She began to softly cry as he mind replayed the words "Its your fault" over and over again. She thought about what he meant to her, she loved Marshall there was no going around that, her thoughts were cut short when a strong smell of fresh blood filled her nose. The scent was also traced with that of Marshall's, it was the smell of musk, pineapple puppy shampoo, and now... blood. She looked up and what she saw scared her, it was a snow terrain freshly covered in the rock from the cliff, and there in the center of all of them was Marshall.
He was in a small hole, and both himself and the snow were coated in blood. Marshall's white fur coat was now red in blood. Everest lunged forward and put a paw to his muzzle. A smile grew on her face when she felt it, he was breathing. She checked his heart rate and her smile disappeared. It was slow, dangerously slow. She stood up her own fur now bloodied but she could care less as she reared her head to the sky and howled. It was so loud that she was sure she caused an avalanche but just to play safe she called up Ryder and tolled him she found Marshall.
Within a minute Ryder and all of the other pups showed up along with Jake who was in her snow mobile and the sled. All of the pups were at a loss of words when they saw Marshall's body, but Everest spoke up.
"He's alive, but we need to hurry he heart beat is low" She said and all of the pups broke into action, They lifted him up, with the help of Ryder, laid him down on the sled and sped off to-word's Katie's home. Ryder called her up to warn her to be ready.
"Katie her, what's up Ryder" Katie's voice was heard come from the pup pad.
"Katie Marshall's hurt bad, almost dead bad, and we need you to be ready we'll be there in 4 minutes" Ryder said as calm as he could so Katie knew the situation was dire.
"OK, I'm getting ready" Katie shouted over the phone/tablet and hung up. The crew made it to where the pups had parked there vehicles and put Marshall in the back of his ambulance. With Jake driving her snow mobile Everest jumped behind the wheel and drove to Katie's with nothing but complete worry. Once there everyone jumped out and helped get Marshall in to Katie who shooed everyone away and took Marshall to the backroom for surgery. 10 minutes in she brought in Ryder for help.
Alex, Jake, and the pups waited outside all the while Everest was crying.
"Hey, Marshall's going to be okay" Everest looked up to see who had spoken up to her, it was Skye. She had seen Everest in the back crying and decided to talk to her. "Katie Knows what she's doing I'm sure she'll fix Marshall right up." Everest was still crying,no matter sky was saying, it wasn't working.
"B-but, w-what if hes n-not" Everest stuttered, completely terrified and stopped thinking about what she was saying, nor did she care "I-I love him s-so m-much" Everest choked out, catching Skye off guard.
"W-what y-you love Marshall! Wow, I did not see that coming" Skye said in a whisper as for the other pups not to hear. "Did you tell him?" Everest looked up and shook her head no. She wished she had, she wishes she could but at the moment he's out cold and going through surgery.
"N-no, but I wish I d-did" Everest sniffled. Sky looked off blankly she hoped Marshall made it through the surgery so she push these two together.
Skye sat down next to the sniffling snow pup and she tried to calm her down but nothing was working. She tried Reassuring her which resulted in some bad news which made Everest cry even worse (A/N:WOW SHE MUST OF HAD SAID 'THING COULD BE WORST, HE COULD HAVE BEEN DEAD WHEN YOU FOUND HIM), She tried silly faces but Everest said they reminded her of Marshall's cheery face which might now be gone forever, and heck she even tried to sing but nothing worked so finally Skye gave up, sat down next to Everest, and waited.
1 HOUR LATER
After a full hour the pups heard and saw the door to the room open. Katie and Ryder walked out with smiles on there faces and gave the good news and the minor bad news.
"OK, pups good news Marshall's going to make a full recovery" all the pups cheered at Katie's statement, Everest especially was happy, the love of her life was OK and soon she could see him.
"Buuuut" all of the pups hushed down as know Ryder's voice was heard, and Everest's dreams and hopes shattered at his next words "He will be asleep for a week or two, so we will have to keep an eye on him and do his job for a bit" Everest couldn't believe her ears. Marshall wasn't going to wake up for possibly two weeks.
"You, guys should bring him to the lookout, it will be easier to watch him from there" Katie ordered them in a doctor like tone. Ryder nodded and asked Zuma, Chase, Rocky, and herself to help. On entry Everest was happy to see the later bloody heap of Marshall's flesh, was now back to his wonderful black and white coat. The four pups began to push the gurney that he was sitting on towards his ambulance once again were he would be driven to the lookout. Once he was in the back the PAW patrol drove off to the lookout.
Once their they took Marshall back out of the ambulance and put him in the middle area in front of the T.V. Everest was Watching the sleeping form of Marshall While the other pups were deciding that they should play tag. Skye looked over to Everest and thought that she would like to play so decided to walk over and ask her to play tag with the rest of them.
"Hey Everest wanna play tag?" Skye asked hoping she would respond with a yes, but was quickly disappointed.
"No, I-I think I'm going to stay here with Marshall for tonight I already told Ryder and Jake" Everest responded with an evident hint of sadness. Although wanted her to play, she respected her decision and went to play tag with the rest of the crew.
Everest's mind thought was all over the place. She was very happy that Marshall was alive, but very sad that she would have to wait until he woke up to know exactly why he nearly killed himself for her.
"Uggh!" she grunted in annoyance but instead of staying angry she saddened once again, huffed, and spoke again "This is going to be the most agonizing days of my life!"
I HOPE MARSHALL IS GOING TO BE OK.
