Hello everyone! It's me! I haven't been around for a long long time, and one of my little cousins like my previous writing that I did. And it inspired me to continue with my writing. Some of my old fanfics……….I kinda lost passion with, BUT BUT BUT, I MAY get back to those depending on how I feel. It's crazy that COVID year was the best worst year of my life. I couldn't do any but do my schoolwork online, then I can do writing with no trouble.

But that was 3 and a half years ago when I first came on here, I was a teen, and now I'm a young adult at the age of 19, I was 16 when I started this, crazy how time goes by right. But anyways enough of my yapping. My cousin wanted a Paw Patrol fanfic, and I did have one planned out with a different OC I came up with. So, I hope you enjoy this!

It was a beautiful sunny day in Adventure Bay. The pups were outside playing around the lookout. Chase was playing tag with Marshall and Rubble. Rocky and Skye were inside playing pup pup boogie.

"I'm gonna beat you Skye!" Said Rocky with confidence. All Skye could do was smirk as she did her patent backflip, and on top of that, the split, causing her to win the head-to-head matchup.

Rocky jaw dropped in utter disbelief. "How……but……I had you…." Sputtered out Rocky in shock. Skye giggled.

"Better luck next time Rocky." She said with a smile.

Back outside, the rest of the pups were playing tag.

"I'm gonna get you Rubble!" Shouted out Marshall, as he was "it"

"I'm too fast for you." said Rubble as he darted around the swing tire. Marshall tried to go through the swing tire himself, but instead, he started swinging through it.

"W-W-Whoa!" Screamed Marshall, as he was then launched in the air. "Look out below!" Rubble saw him, but it was too late as Marshall landed on top of him.

"I'm good!" Said Rubble. Marshall laughed.

And tag, you're it!" said Marshall. They both laughed as Chase came running towards them with his tongue sticking out.

"Well, that was fun." Chase said. Chase then heard giggling behind him, as he turned around as he saw Skye and Rocky coming out of the front door.

"That was a great game of Pup-Pup-Boogie!" said Rocky.

"Yeah, that was fun, but now I'm kinda bored." Said Skye. Skye then walked over to join the other boys along with Rocky near the front tree of the lookout.

"Hey Skye, hey Rocky!" Said Marshall. He completely forgot that he was still on top of Rubble.

"Uh Marshall…..?" said Rubble with a slight frown.

"Oops, sorry Rubble" Said Marshall as he got off of him. Skye and Rocky then walked up next to join the others and looked, and noticed that one of them was missing.

"Hey wait!" said Skye. "Has anyone seen where Zuma went?" The other pups looked at each other with confusion as they arch their eyebrows and shrugged.

"I don't know, I thought he was with you and Rocky, you know how he loves Pup-Pup-Boogie." said Chase with a weak smile.

"Maybe he's up on the top floor of the lookout with Ryder," said Rubble.

"You could be right, let's go see." said Skye. Skye went to the elevator as the rest of the pups followed her in. But one of them was missing.

"Where's Marshall?" asked Rubble. Peering around the corner, Marshall came charging in full speed.

"Marshall, slow down!" said Chase. But it was too late as Marshall tripped over his own footing and crashed into the others in the elevator.

"I guess I set a crash course," said Marshall. The other pups laughed at the joke of the clumsy pup as the elevator went up to the second floor, where Ryder was on his pup pad playing a game.

Ryder looked up and saw the pups coming towards him.

"Hi pups, is something wrong?" He asked with concern.

"Have you seen Zuma?" asked Skye first. Ryder shook his head in denial.

"I haven't seen him." He said. "I'll check his pup tag signal" Ryder then walked over to the TV screen and pulled up Zuma's tracking signal and showed that he was at…….

"The beach?" the pups said in unison.

"Why would he be there?" asked Rubble?"

"Yeah it's all wet there." said Rocky, shuddering.

"I mean he is the water rescue pup, maybe there was someone who needed help down at the beach." said Chase.

"I don't know, usually whenever there is an emergency, we let each other know so that we can all help together," said Ryder.

"We'll just go check up on him," said Chase. Skye then stepped forward.

"I'll go with you," said Skye. Chase slightly blushed at this. "O-Ok" he responded.

"I'll go too, Zuma is one of my best friends," said Rocky.

"Ok pups, just make sure he's ok, call me if there are any problems." said Ryder. The pups nodded as Marshall and Rubble decided to stay behind and help out Ryder

The three pups Rocky, Chase, and Skye decided to walk to the beach as it wasn't a far walk considering it was right under the main bridge and on the way the passed Katie's pet parlor as saw she was standing outside.

"Hi pups!" she said waving to them.

"Hi Katie," said Chase. "Have you seen Zuma?" he added. Katie then put her finger across her mouth to think. Then she remembered.

"Yeah!" she said remembering. I think he went down towards the beach, he looked kinda gloomy and down though." she said softly. The pups then exchanged looks at one another to think why would Zuma be upset or sad about anything. "I even waved at him and he just walked past me without even looking at me." Katie added.

"What could Zuma be upset about that has him going off to the beach like that?" asked Skye out of curiosity.

"I don't know, but let's hope it's not anything really bad," said Chase. The pups waved goodbye to Katie as they went further down the street and came across Mr. Porter's Cafe. Outside of the cafe they saw Mr Porter serving a customer.

"Hey Mr. Porter." said Chase. Mr. Porter looked up and waved at the three pups.

"Hey pups, come for a treat?" he asked.

"No actually Mr Porter, we came to ask something else," said Rocky. Mr Porter then arched his eyebrow out of curiosity and began listening.

"Did you see Zuma walk by here and did he look a little……..off to you?" asked Rocky. Mr Porter then scratched his head trying to recall.

"Actually……" he suddenly spoke. "I did see him going towards the beach. He looked as if he was in a sad mood. His tail was down. I even tried to speak to him, but he didn't say anything so I assumed he didn't hear me as he was across the street." The pups then looked at each other, it's similar to how Zuma did when Katie tried to speak to him but didn't respond.

"That doesn't sound like Zuma at all," said Rocky. "I really hope he's ok."

"Well we'll have to go to the beach and find out for ourselves," said Chase. "Let's go pups!" The others nodded as they waved goodbye to Mr. Porter and continued to the beach.

Eventually the pups made it to the beach and began looking around for Zuma. They looked near the lawn chairs, near the pier where the boats come in. They had felt like they been searching for hours until…..

"Pups look what I found!" screamed Rocky. Skye and Chase then came running down to where he was and looked down and found paw prints in the sand. Chase then moved down and sniffed it and his tail wagged.

"That's Zuma's alright! They can lead us to him." he added. Chase then continued sniffing around the paw prints as Skye and Rocky followed him. After a while, the pups saw a figure in the distance stand far down the coastline in front of the ocean waves alone.

"Zuma!" The trio yelled out. But Zuma didn't hear them. The three then ran further down to get closer to him and called his name out again.

"Zuma!" yelled Chase out again." This time the figure's ears popped and turned his head. And indeed it was Zuma. Who had a sad look on his face.

"We've been worried about you," said Skye. Zuma didn't respond as he lowered his head and turned back towards the ocean with a neutral look. Skye then moved closer to Zuma and put her paw on his front paw.

"Talk to us, what's the matter?" said Skye. Zuma then turned his head and saw he had tears in his eyes, but for unknown reasons.

"Just…….this place has a bad memory of when I was a little pup before Ryder found me." Zuma said slowly. The others listened in. "It's a place where I lost something very special in my life. Something that was so close to me, that I thought I would never be the same when I lost it."

"What was it?" asked Chase. Zuma then looked at him, then more tears flowed out of his eyes as he turned towards the bay.

"I lost…….my little brother."

Well that's the start of my first Paw Patrol fanfic. I'm gonna definitely try my best to make sure this story pans out perfectly.

But yeah Zuma lost something very special in his life, and it was………his little brother? Zuma has a little brother? Why didn't he tell anyone? Hit the like and favorite, along with the follow button to keep up with this to find out.

I will see you all soon, and tell me how I do, trying to keep my writing roots alive and not let it go to waste.
