Sea patrol, Main deck:

It's already been a day after they left adventure bay. The pups are quietly watching the sunset on the horizon. The sky had a perfect orange tint at this time because of it. This is what people call, the golden hour. Because of the color the sky gives off thanks to the setting sun. One of the most magical moments ever.
And yet. None of them could really is appreciate this as much as they wished to.

"Do you think- ..." Ruble breathed a tired breath and didn't continue what he was about to ask. But everyone knew what he was gonna ask.

"I hope so..." Rocky answered.

"Do you... Think they're hungry right now?" Ruble asked.

"I hope not." Rocky answered again.

"Do you-"

"I just hope they're doing okay... Ruble." Rocky said tiredly.

"We all do, dude." Zuma said.

Ruble then said, "If we find them-"

"When we find them." A voice from behind cut him off. They all slowly turned around and saw Ryder looking at the sunset as well. From the looks of it, he's been there for a while now. Then he continued to say, " When we find them, we'll be complete again. When we find them, our family will be whole again. And I promise I won't let us be separated again." Ryder seemed to be taking this harder than they all thought.

"Ryder it's going to be okay." Tracker came up and said. "We'll do everything we can to get them back."

"Yeah! I mean we're the paw patrol! We've found so many hidden things before! Like that treasure chest that's full of red pajamas." Ruble said trying to make the atmosphere more optimistic.

"I don't think those were weally the treasures we got there, but I get what you're putting down." Zuma said.

" I'm... Not putting anything down." Ruble said confused.

"Just an expwession." Zuma explained.

The rest including Ryder just chuckled at the two's exchange. Then Ryder turned to Rocky. "I forgot to say this, but I'm surprised you're doing a lot better this time Rocky."

"Hmm? What do you mean, Ryder?" The grey pup tilted his head in confusion.

"Oh nothing. I'm just surprised you're not as complaining and anxious this time. You know? Since we're surrounded by water, and miles away from any known land? " Ryder shrugged.

"...."

Noticing his strange change of expression, Ryder realised something. "Wait. Don't tell me... You haven't been paying attention to-"

"No.... no I haven't..." Rocky said shuddering. "If you don't mind I'd like to... Y'know... "

"Understood, you may go." Ryder said as Rocky quickly walked inside the ship, not waiting for him to finish.

"By the way, did any of you know where he went this morning?" Ryder turned back and asked.

"No. He never told us." Rubble answered.

"Well. Knowing that we're going away for some time, maybe he said goodbye to his other fwends?" Zuma guessed.

"I woke up this morning and thought I heard him say something about 'a spikey bracelet' or something? " Tracker joined in.

"You mean the one he was wearing just now?" Ruble asked. Everyone seemed to remember Rocky wearing a black spiky wrist band while he walked inside to get away from the view of the mass amounts of water.
