PAW Patrol: An Experienced Alliance

Chapter 18: Depression

A few months after Danish defeated Humdinger with his Ranger forms, he started to get a little agitated.

A few days had passed,...

Zuma's POV:

After the villain's defeat, everything is much more peaceful. No more trouble, no more damage, and most importantly, no more Humdinger. But, I felt something was off.

I then saw Danish sat alone under the tree. I decided to approach him and that's when...

Danish: (angrily) What do you want, Zuma?

Me: Whoa, chill out, dude. I just want to know if you're alright.

Danish: (angrily) I mean, do I look, okay to you?

Me: Uhhhh...

Danish: Just, leave me alone.

Me: Are you su--

Danish: (angrily) I SAID, LEAVE ME ALONE!!

Me: Okay, okay.

I left him. I haven't seen him this mad before. I wonder what's going on with him.

Marshall's POV:

I was doing my own business when I saw Zuma a little shaken up. What the heck happened? I better go ask him.

Me: Hey, Zuma.

Zuma: Hey, Marsh.

Me: Is everything alright, man?

Zuma: It's Danish. He's a little upset and angry. He just screamed at me to leave him alone. I don't know what caused him to act like that.

Me: Is that true?

Zuma: Yeah.

Okay, now this is a bit serious. If Danish was angry, it must be related to his mental health. I then try to observe him from afar to give me any clues what caused his personality to change.

A few days later,...

Chase's POV:

Danish's behavior has changed these past few days. Marshall's been observing him since he started to lash out on Zuma. The more he lash out, the more Marshall collects info. After he collected the data, he started to research.

I found him doing more research on Danish's condition.

Me: Hey, bro.

Marshall: Hey, man. What's up?

Me: Just cruisin' along. So, do you have any verdict on Danish's sudden outrage?

Marshall: I have no idea, but I think I'm having a lead on what makes him like that.

Me: What is it?

Marshall: Danish may have suffered from depression.

Me: What?!

Marshall: It's true. This is an emotional disorder which causes a person to have sudden move swings. This makes them become more sad and angry about themselves.

Me: So, what you're saying is, he's having some unstable mood swings?

Marshall: I think so, but I need to dig in even more to have a confirmation.

Me: Good luck, bro.

Marshall: Thanks.

It became more clear. He must've suffered from depression, but I can't jump into conclusions yet. I need to wait for Marshall for his verdict.
