Saving Marshall (Book: 1) (COMPLETED)

Chapter 8: A Dalmatian's new home

Marshall ran through the forest as fast as he could, his eyes being watery from sobbing, making it hard for him to see where he was going but he knew where he needed to go first before he left Adventure Bay and that was the lookout tower he needed to get his stuff and leave. Marshall finally made it to the lookout tower, he took a shortcut to get there so he wouldn't get spotted by the pups or Ryder he peeked his head out to make sure it was clear for him to come out and it was, Marshall took off running towards the lookout tower, he entered it and he would put his vest and fire helmet on and all the stuff he needed, he was still crying but not sobbing, as Marshall was putting his favorites food and stuff animals and toys into a bag he found the poor pup started to have flashbacks of all the good times he had with Ryder and the pups Marshall was able to hear their voices in his head during the flashbacks. Marshall shaked his head to snap out of it "They don't need me anymore...so why should I be sad about dumb stupid memories? Besides I am a monster.." Marshall looked down at his paws then at his bag, he closed the bag as he used one of his paws to wave goodbye to the lookout tower then he looked down at his bag and picked it up with his mouth, he went up to the top of the lookout tower, he turned his head to look at the big screen that was used for missions on which pup was picked for the mission, Marshall let out a sigh as he looked down and kept walking he would make it to the side and he would go down it and his pup house turned into his firetruck and he started the truck Marshall made sure to turn off the alarms so they wouldn't go off and alert anyone.

Marshall started to drive off before he slammed on his breaks hearing the sound of dogs laughing and barking of happiness, Marshall turned his head towards the sound to see Ryder and the pups were having fun at the beach playing ball or some of them were in the water swimming, "Looks like their having way more fun without me..besides..I was probably not even fun cause I always messed up on their games with falling. Goodbye Ryder and the pups. Goodbye adventure bay so many fun times I had here...the missions too. I will miss this place and everyone else. Even if they don't miss me..." Marshall mumbled before he started to drive again.

Marshall didn't take the road he went off road into the forest driving his fire truck Marshall drove for a while soon he noticed he was leaving Adventure Bay area he was traveling to a new place, a road trip all by himself, Marshall stopped and looked back at Adventure Bay one more time, Probably the last time he would ever see it even Ryder and the pups again. Marshall had a small smile on his face with tears in his eyes before he drove off again. Hours Later Marshall was still driving, he took stops to eat food and drink water, his fire truck didn't need any gas so he didn't have to worry about that. Marshall would get back on the road, he would put his earbuds in that were made for dogs each of the pups got their own pair of earbuds for christmas one year each of them had different colors that matched them. Marshall used his earbuds the most out of the other pups, Marshall loved listening to music, Marshall was listening to a song called Running Away from Home By Smash Into Pieces. Marshall had a whole playlist of songs on his pup pad, it was like the pup pad Ryder had but made for dogs, Marshall only used his to listen to music he didn't text or call anyone on his pup pad, just music.

Few Hours later Marshall finally made it to where he wanted to be, where he was born, where he was raised by his parents for a little bit of his life before he was taken to the Paw Patrol. Marshall had a big smile on his face when he saw a huge sign saying "Welcome to Dallas Texas!" Marshall let out a howl and his little tail wagged, he was finally home, a home where he knows he'll be loved and he will still be able to do his job, what he does best, saving people's lives, even if it was just by himself he can still do it. Marshall drove into the big city he loved so much, it was bigger than Adventure City, Marshall looked around before he spotted his old home where he used to live, he wondered if his parents were still living there. He was happy to be here, he belonged here, a new start of life for Marshall, this all he wanted was to be loved.

"I'm home. My home city..I will be loved here.." Marshall took out his ear buds and stopped his music and stared at his old house with a smile, Marshall parked his fire truck before hopping out of it and walking to the front door of the house Marshall would stand on his two back legs to reach the doorbell and would press it then he would go back on his 4 legs. Marshall waited for someone to answer, someone finally answered.

"Marshall? Is that really you?"
