'For the last time, we wewen't doing it in the bathwoom!'

Everyone was up now. Rubble had already helped himself to some Cheerios. He just watched them, confused. 

'Really? I mean some stuff you said in there. 'Put it away Rocky!''

'Shut up! Besides, even that's too low for Zuma!'

'Well...' Rubble got up, putting his bowl in the dishwasher. 'I'm gonna go now and leave you guys arguing about some stuff.'

He grabbed his bag, which was now packed, and walked out.

It was the next day at school, and they were all in the music room.

'I might be a bit late to lunch,' said Rubble. 'I'm showing the new exchange student around. He's called Tracker.'

'Make sure to introduce us.'

'Will do.'


                                                                                                ***

The third bell rang, signalling the start of lunch. Rubble ran to the office, where a cute boy was waiting. He had brown hair which was long and in need of a cut. It hid his eyes.

'¡Hola! ¡Es un placer conocerte!' (Hello! It is a pleasure to meet you!)

Tracker gave a little laugh.

'It's alright amigo(friend). I know quite a bit of English myself. Not great, but okay.'

'It's still good use of Spanish class though.'

Rubble showed him around school. The classrooms, toilets, cafeteria.

'And finally, here's where me and my friends hang out. The music rooms.'

As he opened the door, Tracker smiled as several faces looked up at him.

'¡Hola!'

'Nice to meet you guys too.'

'You speak English? That's a welief. I'm not that good at Spanish.'

'So? What do you think?'

'I love this place amigo. And you guys are such a lovely bunch of people. Would you mind if I ate my lunch with you?'

Everyone smiled. Rocky and Everest parted to make space for the new recruit of the Seven Teens.

'We're going to have to change our group name though,' said Rubble as he started his tuna sandwich.

The teens thought quietly.

'What about the underdogs?' suggested Tracker.

'Can't,' said Chase. 'PawPerson101 already used that.'

Zuma smirked as everyone was in deep thought.

'Hey Twacker! You got a dog?'

'Yes amigo. She is a chihuahua called Tina.'

'You what this means, wight?'

Everyone except Tracker sighed.

'Yes we do Zuma.'

'We have no more ideas, so let's call us the Paw Patwol!'

Tracker tried to hide his laughter.

'It sounds ridiculous right?' muttered Skye.

'Like some kind of TV show about dogs.'

'Why does evewyone keep saying that?'

Everest couldn't contain her laughter anymore.

'Cos it's true!'

'Honestly though, nobody have any more ideas?' asked Marshall. 

Everyone shook their heads.

'Right then,' sighed Rocky. 'I guess that we'll have to call it the Paw Patrol for now.'

'Fow now?'

'You think we're going to keep 'Paw Patrol' as a nickname? It's lame.'

'Unless you watch it on TV.'

Everyone laughed apart from Zuma.

'It will be a famous name one day, just wait and see.'
