Some time passed as the other pups discussed their thoughts on Chase, while Zuma and Rubble skipped out on not saying anything, Marshall was called up. He had some things he wanted to air out.

"So, Marshall, how do you feel about Chase since the others decided not to talk about it?" Agent Rich asked.

"I can't blame them, they're not ready to talk about it but I am. Can't believe he didn't tell us anything. The fact that he lied to us and said it was over, he knew we would've helped him with whatever he was going through! That's who we are, we're a family!" Marshall yelled out as he started to calm down slightly. "I guess that didn't matter to him." Marshall said as he lowered his ears.

"Ever since you met him, how would you describe him?" Agent Ruch asked.

"He's a coward, but he always was a defiant pup, always wanting to finish things. He was too full of himself to realize it from time to time." Marshall stated.

Ryder looked on with worry, his once friendly Dalmatian pup was now angry for once and he couldn't really blame him. As the Dalmatian kept ranting on, Agent Ramirez finally came back in with the report he needed.

"Rich, our insider got us some solid evidence, come on back and I'll show you." Ramirez ordered through the comm.

"You heard him, I don't want to talk about Chase anymore." Marshall wanted to brush off the Shepherd but it really wasn't possible.

"Well, that's all we're going to talk about for awhile." Agent Rich assured as he opened the door to let the fire pup go back to his team.

Marshall gathered back with Ryder and the others as Agent Rich was handed a folder by Ramirez.

"Check it out, our insider confirmed that Chase is in Boroughton, he most likely got there earlier today." Ramirez pointed out.

"Well, we already knew that, Ramirez. Our insider specify on how–?" Ryder cut Rich off.

"Wait, let me get this straight. You already knew Chase was in Boroughton but rather than telling us, you wanted to know how we felt about him?" Ryder asked, infuriated. He gave the agents a stern look as he began assuming. "Is there something you don't want us to know?"

"It's not like that." Agent Rich sighed as he rubbed his forehead in annoyance. "We just wanted to know if you and your pups are still going to go along with this whole thing."

"Of course we are! We're not giving up on him!" Ryder stated.

"I wouldn't be so sure about that." Ramirez remarked.

"You and your pups don't realize how dangerous this is, how dangerous Chase is. I didn't tell you this because it wouldn't be right to let a kid and his five little band of pups be involved in a case as bad as this." Agent Rich explained.

"Yeah, no offense or anything but your little band of pups are kind of ridiculous. I mean, herding sheep, saving chickens, saving a friendship party?" Agent Ramirez questioned as he stood by Rich's side. "That's nothing compared to what we have to deal with."

"I think we're smart enough to figure that out considering you're the FBI!" Ryder sarcastically stated. "Just because we do those things doesn't mean we don't know the severity that you have to deal with. Also let me ask you this, aren't you the one who said you'll shut us down if we didn't help?" Ryder asked.

"When we said that, it just meant for interrogation, not actual involvement." Agent Rich replied as he crossed his arms.

"Well it doesn't matter, we're not giving up on Chase." Ryder assured as the pups stood by him.
