Marshall and Chase: On the Skase!

(17) Adventure City

In Adventure Bay, Ryder was watching Everest, Rocky, Zuma, and Rubble play with a ball after another rescue well done from the top balcony of the lookout. Everest took Chase's job and performed it perfectly, while Zuma took Marshall's job to near-perfection. There were a few bumps, but nothing the PAW Patrol couldn't handle. He did notice that Everest wanted to take Marshall's job instead, but that was denied as Zuma had a bit more experience with the job.

He hoped that everything with Chase and Marshall were doing alright. If only there was a way to contact them... He noticed that their pup tags went offline, but he chalked it up to them being too far from Adventure Bay to connect through their pup tags.

Wait... Robo-Dog!

Ryder ran over to the supercomputer in front of the large screen, beginning to type things down. He had been so busy managing to fill the gaps in the absence of Chase, Marshall, and Skye that he forgot about the various tracking methods he had on all of his technology, including Robo-Dog.

Pressing down on a singular key, he was able to access all of the files from Robo-Dog, up until... Two days ago!?

The boy genius could have sworn that he set Robo-Dog to record constantly. Going to the final half hour of Robo-Dog's recording, he watched and listened, grabbing a chair to sit down.

He could hear the familiar voices of Chase and Marshall in the background, seemingly furious at the other. He heard traces of what was being talked about, but the rest was intelligible screaming and shouting.

"...Skye was taken... you... too busy chilling out!!"

"Oh... you... me for it?"

"I... know, Everest was injured... Skye was taken... under whose nose? Yours!"

"What... to it not being... fault?"

"What... while Skye and Everest... out there?"

"I... taking care of the... we rescued!"

"You would've... had you not only been... Skye, give... a shake!!"

"I'm... focused... Skye!"

Ryder's eyes narrowed. Whatever was going on, it didn't sound good. Robo-Dog's eyes, however, were focused on the road, unflinching to the commotion behind him. Ryder planned to stop the footage there, but gasped with surprise when Robo-Dog's eyes suddenly darted from the road to his right, where a pup, dawning what seemed like knight's gear, suddenly jabbed his sword forward and at Robo-Dog's neck area.

As Robo-Dog's alarms began going off, the robotic head slammed against the ground, and the PAW Patroller began swerving. In the corner of the screen, he could see a few more of the knight pups communicating with one another.

Ryder's heart dropped as the audio cut back in.

"We have them right where we want!" One of the pups declared, "Take those pups down, and then we'll be able to go back home!"

The other knights cheered with excitement before running out of view.

A while later, the PAW Patroller crashed, leaving Robo-Dog's point of view completely dark.

The boy, on the other hand, was feeling a bit sick. These knights were after Chase and Marshall? Why? When the PAW Patroller crashed, did they manage to escape? If so, where were they, and where was Skye?

This was getting out of hand.

Meanwhile, Everest laughed as Zuma tried to stand on the ball using his hind legs.

"Look here!" The Chocolate Lab exclaimed, "I'm pulling a Marshall!"

After playing for a while, the pups had decided to have an impression contest. They would try their best impressions of Chase, Skye, Marshall, and even Tracker. Most points by the end of the round would be the judge for the next round.
