If you spot any errors then I would like to know. If you want you don't have to :)
Skye yawned, next to her was Everest who was wide awake eating dry Honey Nut Cheerios. Skye tried to find anything for a reference of what time it was.
She could see a normal round clock hung up on the wall. The border of it was yellow. Skye could make out that it said 7:45! "What time do you wake up?"
"6." Everest said as she watched the TV screen.
Skye was surprised. Everest is going to give Chase a run for his money at waking up early in the morning. "I think I should probably head home, Marshall and Rubble are probably waiting for me." Skye groaned as she stretches her hind legs.
"Where are the others?" Everest asks as she fills her face with Cheerios.
"Barkingburg I think."
Everest was surprised by that answer. Why would they be all the way out in barkingburg. "The occasion?" Everest asks.
"I think they had a dinner, it would've been nice to see fancy pups in suits ya know." Skye sighed.
"I don't think you can just pick out a boy like that." Everest replied as she crunched down on the Cheerios.
"Oh you need to see how desperate they are, I'm pretty sure it's because of the fame but I don't blame them." Skye said thinking of her failed relationships with them in the past. She never had actually kissed any of them.
"And girls?" Everest asked.
"What do you expect, they instantly go for Chase, Marshall, or Zuma. They are like magnets. Chase and Marshall are fan favorites though." Skye added.
"Multiple girls going for Marshall?... and Chase?" Everest asks with a concerned look on her face.
Skye found it weird how Everest mentions Marshall first in everything. She held her thought back for a little more processing. Usually people say Chase then Marshall.
"Yep, they try their best to decline but some of them just don't get off ya know. Then there's Rocky and Rubble... the unwanted ones." Skye said.
"Rocky seems like a nice pup, I really think you should give him a chance." Everest said.
"And you not do anything? Yeah right." Skye scoffed.
Everest looked at Skye. She was confused on the way she thought. "Aren't friendships supposed to help each other out?" Everest asked.
Rubble chimed in the through the pup tag. "I know you two are the only ones that can hear me but Marshall really got messed up by that tree." Rubble said
"Hey, it was slippery and Zuma was chasing me." Marshall defended in the background.
"Is he okay?" Everest asked.
"Of course he's okay, it's Marshall. He can take a hit or three." Rubble complimented... kinda "Alright, we're gonna be heading off see ya!" Rubble said as he hung up.
"We should go visit, Marshall probably feels down." Everest suggested.
Skye was going to protest but Everest might've been right about something. Marshall might be having a hard time with Rubble.
"How much stuff are you taking with you to the lookout?" Skye asked.
"Not much." Everest replied.
"We can take the helicopter. I'm sure Rocky would love to take the snow plow. He likes driving other people's vehicles." Skye said.
"Okay!" Everest exclaimed.
"You should just move in while you're at it as well." Skye suggested.
Everest already knew the answer. In the spirit of Christmas she's leaving jakes cabin. Plus he's been busy trying to get a girlfriend himself. "Okay."
She had never been inside of Skye's mini copter before. She put on the head phones and they soared off into adventure bay.

Ryder landed air patroller and woke up the 3 sleeping pups. "Get up, we're at the lookout." Ryder quietly says as he shakes each pup up.
"Whewe awe you putting the diamond?"
"In my office for now." Ryder replied.
They all nodded and ran inside the lookout. Skye could see the air patroller submerge into the floor. "They got back faster than I thought." Skye said.
Everest didn't hear one word Skye said.
Skye rolled her eyes and went down for a smooth landing.
On the inside the boys were examining Marshall's snout. "Dude you weally lost that fight to the tree." Zuma joked.
"How's that thing for Sk-
Chase stopped his words. He hear the door behind them open. "What was that?" Skye asked.
"Nothin." Chase replied.
"Nah I'm going to hear what you said." Skye demanded.
"Okay... it's not mine it's Rocky's." Chase said.
"Oh come on man, I thought we were making a bond tighter than metal." Rocky sighed. He could still try and save this.
"Okay, but you really think I was gonna let go of what you and Zuma did back in barkingburg?" Chase replied.
Everyone in the room was confused... besides Zuma. "Fair point but-
"Okay let's all forget about this and move on." Ryder said speaking over them.
They went back to examine Marshall's snout. "Is it really that bad guys?" He whines.
"What do you think about it?!?" Marshall asked in concern. He tries looking at the end of his nose. He slouched his back trying to look at his nose. Only the end of the sticking could be seen.
Rocky could see Marshall's eye turn extra glossy. "Hey we're joking, no need to get soggy over it."
"So it's not that bad?"
"Naw dude, if anything girls love guys with scaws." Zuma complimented. He didn't want him crying the first day a guest arrives.
The door opened up and Marshall can barely see the white paw. He straitens up and sniffs his tears away. "Hey Everest!" Marshall said.
Rocky and Zuma can clearly notice the quick change in posture. "Hey Everest come look at his scaw !" Zuma exclaimed.
"I was gonna ask one of you if you wanted to get the snow plow down here." Everest says as she holds up the keys.
"ME!
ME!
ME!"
Chase, Rocky, and Zuma started to shove each other around. "C'mon dudes I've never driven another vehicle." Zuma says as he jumps onto Chase knocking them both over.
"Look what you did!" Chase yells as Rocky picks up the keys.
"Why do all of a sudden you all like driven vehicles?" Skye asked.
"So Rocky doesn't get to drive." Chase replies.
"I just wanna dwive a vehicle." Zuma adds.
Rocky sprints outside and drives off in his rig.
Zuma let's out a long sigh. "How's is he gonna bring the wig back." Zuma said.
"Let's go! Adventure trio!" Chase said as they run out of the door.
"Wait don't hit th- they are already gone." Everest groaned.
"Why?"
"Okay, there's an eject button and shoots out skis. You see where I'm going with this." Everest said speaking from past experience.
"On the other note... side, They are really getting along." Skye said. One day in barkingburg and they are basically bff's. Marshall was turned away from Everest. He didn't want to expose his nose.
"Hey Marshall, wanna go for a walk?" Everest asked.
Marshall's ear perked up and much as they can. Which wasn't much. "Sure!" He agreed.
Skye was in awe. She just witnessed Marshall agree with Everest. Even though Marshall wasn't much of a walker. "This is the start of something beautiful!" She said to Rubble but still looking out the door.
Skye looked at Rubble who had a bowl of food under his head. "Were you eating?" Skye asks.
"It was like watching a TV show, so much stuff going on at one moment." Rubble said.
"I guess you're right." Skye said.
"Well... what do you wanna do?" Rubble asked.
"Talk I guess. Umm, do you plan on asking anyone out to the ball?" Skye asked.
"No, it doesn't seem that interesting." Rubble replied.

The trio now named "adventure trio" were on their way back to the lookout. Chase could see Zuma slowing down. He stopped Rocky's rig next to him. "What happened?"
"Give me 60 seconds!" Zuma exclaimed as he hopped out.
He ran into a nearby flower shop and left with pink and blue flowers. Chase knew what he was doing. He watched as Zuma approached the same apartment complex where the twins lived.
Zuma rang the doorbell. "Easy, just ask Do you want to go to the Chwistmas Ball with me. Can't be that hard. Maybe the lisp might get in the way. Although Ella is special. Maybe it won't be that easy. Just calm yourself." Zuma stopped his prep talk. He heard the door knob shake.
"E-Tuck..." Zuma said looking at Tuck.
"If you're planning on asking out Ella I'm saying no for her." Tuck said.
"No, I want to ask her if I should ask Evewest or Skye." Zuma lied. He held up the multi colored bouquet.
"Alright, give me a minute." He said closing the door.
"How did it go!" Chase yelled from the top of the car.
"It was the wong twin!" Zuma yelled back.
The door opened and this time it was Ella. "Hey Zuma." She said.
"I was wondering I-f you wanna... wanna" Zuma felt his tongue tie up.
"Let me westart."
"Are you trying to ask me out to the ball?" Ella asked.
"Yup, I sweawr this would've been easier with any other girl. You have like some sowrt of shield." Zuma said.
"Is that a good thing?" Ella asks.
"I guess." Zuma said.
"Then it's a yes, I'll go. Tuck it behind this door by the way." Ella said.
Zuma's eyes widened. "Take these I'll be back later!" Zuma yelled.
Tuck watches Zuma hop into her hover craft and stops the chase. "Why did you do that?!?" Tuck asked.
"I can't believe you were gonna try to shoo him off." Ella groaned in annoyance.
"You don't know Zuma like I do, he's a heart breaker." Tuck said.
"I don't think he would." Ella replies. She defended Zuma. Plus it would be her first date.
Zuma and Chase found Rocky having a hard time lining up the Plow.
"Ill head inside, you can help him." Chase said as he parked Rocky's rig.
"Wocky! You have it at the wright angle! Just back it up!" Zuma yelled from behind the vehicle.
Rocky slowly backed up. He looked at all the buttons. "Why would I eject myself?" Rocky said looking at the big red button that yells "DON'T PRESS"
"Okay, stop!" Zuma yells. He gave the plow a little bit of space.
Rocky turns around and accidentally hits the big red button that you shouldn't press. He closed he eyes and expected to fly out of the vehicle. He opened an eye to see he was perfectly fine.
Zuma heard some gears switch. On each side of the car two holes opened up. Before he got the chance to see what it was two skis shot out sticking into the wall. "HOLY SH... Dude that almost killed me!" Zuma yelled getting out of there. He didn't want to be anywhere near the Snow Plow. He quickly headed inside.
"What did you see? A dead body?" Skye asked looking at Zuma who clearly was worried.
"No, I almost got impaled... where awe the other two love biwds?" Zuma said.
"On a walk."
"Well the... we should holy cwap it's 6?" Zuma said looking at the time.
The other pups start to dying of laughter. "I'm sorry Zuma but that word isn't for you." Rocky said.
Zuma huffed. "Hey, I'm the first one with a date I don't wanna hear it!" He defended.
"Don't get all butthurt, you make fun of Marshall and his nose. Is it illegal to say things about you?" Chase asks.
Zuma reluctantly sat down and started to watch what they were watching. He couldn't wait for the day to end.
While they were doing that Marshall and Everest are watching a robbery live. 3 dogs breaking into a hardware store. They hid behind a wall. "Great."
"Sprint towards the bridge." Everest said.
Her and Marshall ran through the snow as fast as they could. "Chase! We found the robbers!" Marshall huffed.
"Get them G!" A short and stubby one yelled.
They noticed one of the three robbers start chasing after them.
They could hear Chases sirens blast across the bridge.
They got to half the bridge before Chase reached them.
At the other end was a dog dressed up in a fully blacked out outfit.
"Stop in the name of the Law!" Chase yelled.
The pups started run towards them. Chase jumped up thinking they were surrendering.
"Thank you for making the right choice!" Chase called out.
The head nodded.
When he was reaching jumping distance away they ran towards the edge of the bridge. "Don't jump! It would hurt really bad." Chase says. He had never dealt with a situation like this. Yes they are trained to defuse the situation but training is a lot different from the real thing.
Chase slowly inches closer and closer to the jumper. All at once they sent themselves off.
The 3 pups run to the edge and see nothing. Not them falling and not a drop of water.
"Marshall... this is the next multinational drug lord!" Chase said.
"Right, I forgot about that." Marshall sighed. He didn't wanna hear about that dumb idea.
"Let's get back to the lookout. Then you can tell me what you saw." Chase said.
The scent of the robber smelt familiar. He put it off and gave the two a ride back home.
"Crazy day!" Marshall said.
"Yep."
