Shattered

"Days have passed, something happened." (Chapter 8)

Let us go to the dally's Point of View.

The dally is on somewhere, not in Adventure Bay nor anywhere, not in Jake's Mountain, Adventure Beach or even at Foggy Bottom.

Instead, he was on the black somewhat called the Void. The dally had his eyes open slowly, he quickly shots his eyes open when he looks everywhere.

"Hello?" All he heard was echos on his voice, but with his dismay, he sees a glimpse of a brown figure from afar. "Chase!" Suddenly, he fades away..? Surprised, looks again in every angle. "Where am I?"

Suddenly, he heard an echo, is that his own voice..? He manages to look everywhere again, until a white figure comes out of nowhere and straightly looking at the dally. "Ahh!!" The dally screamed.

"What the.. who are you? And.. why do you look like.. me?" The dally suprised himself, is that his reflection in the mirror? Or is it a ghost that comes and haunts his dreams.?

"I'm you, silly. Relax!" The other dally, or a soul dally chuckled. "Wh-what am I even doing here? Why is Chase fading few minutes ago? What is this place?" Questions was around the dally, went insane for a moment and calm himself down after.

"You're on the void, Marsh. A place where there are nothing to see but this.. particular black. Whenever you see, it's just a plain black." Marshall was silenced himself.

"Wh-what even happened to me? I-I remember I was in a cr-crash accident." Marshall remembered but didn't know what happened next.

"The Paw Patrol, which is your team, saved you, Marsh. You rapidly lose your blood, your mate cried in despair, hoping that you would live." Marshall eyes widened.

"No.. you're kidding, right?" The soul Marshall shakes his head, responding a no. "Come with me, I'll show you." The soul Marshall opens a portal, revealing that the place was in the hospital, with the cockapoo's copter and the shepherd's cruiser. All they can see was a crying shepherd besides to his cruiser.

"Let's enter this moment where.. he broke down. And I will show you something, later." The soul entered the portal. The real was hesitate to enter at first, but he wanted to see his lover so he sighed and entered.

"I WAS STUPID! NEVER IN MY LIFE I HAVE FELT THIS WAY! WHY!? JUST WHY!?" The real Marshall was suprised again by the shepherd's action. he just.. cried. He realized that the shepherd didn't cried everytime. "What happened to me on why Chase is crying harder?"

"That's where our next destination is, my friend." He opened another portal again but this time, it was green and white in combine. They entered it and the real dally sees himself. Attached tubes on his mouth and lying like play dead game. "What..?" Marshall was shocked about this. "Wha-what happened to me?"

"The nurse said you're in critical condition. That's why so many tubes are attached to your face. He said you are in this condition called Coma." Marshall feels his pupils went small. He did not expect that answer. "C-coma?" The soul nods. "He even said that you lose too much blood, causing you to slip into that condition. You might even wake up for a week or two." The real felt his heart sunked deep within.

"I know.. it's the dark truth from your perspective, but me also have the same perspective as you." The soul stated. The real looked at his own soul. "Is that the reason why Chase.. cried?" The soul nodded in respond to yes.

"So, don't come back to the void, try to prevent it. Your mate is waiting for you to wake up." "But how will I know that I am on my body again? My lifeless body over there?" He pointed his lifeless body. "Tell you what, since you are like me, there's a feeling on where it will tell that you come back. But once you come back to your own body, your soul will not remember any of this happened." The soul Marshall flew away and came back to the reality, but only this time, the dally is a soul.

He sees his lover and the cockapoo, sleeping each other. But he knows that her and him are just friends, and just treat themselves as brothers and sisters, not by blood.

He walked towards the sleeping shepherd and sits besides him. Looked at him but notice a tear in his eyes. "Tears..? Chase..I-" sighing, wiping it off. He instantly feels the tear, immediate surprise, he can only feel or touch some things except that he can't touch a pup, and a human-being.

"Chase, my love, wait for me. I'll come back and give my love to you." Marshall saidly in half-happy and sad. It's my fault. This could've happened if I.. I.. finding the words to say, but sighed deeply.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's been weeks since the incident, the dally hasn't woken up yet, the shepherd always look out for his lover, checking on him.

Meanwhile, the soul dally looked at his lover, chuckled while seeing the shepherd. He sighed as he wonders what Chase's reaction will be if he wakes up.

"Huh?" The feeling on what the the soul dally said days ago, became the pain. That means that he is coming back from his week condition. Wait, the other me said that this feeling will gonna know if I am gonna be back. But why such in pain? He groaned in frustation and then floats up "Whaaaaa?!"

He was floating towards his body, feeling excited to be back to his own body. This is it! He thought. The soul entered the body and closes its eyes.

Nurses and doctors are checking on the dally, making the shepherd wait for them on the outside. "I hope he wakes up now. I miss him." He said. "Chase, don't worry. Like nurse Jeremy said, he will gonna gain consciousness again, for like a week or two."

Chase sighed, about the incident happened on the lookout, came back to his mind. "Skye, don't you think there are no proper apologization for Marshall? I mean, those three pups insulted him and telling the truth at the same time."

Skye looks at the shepherd, making her emotions on her two lowered. He had a fight with Rocky because that 'incident'.

"They have to know this. It's been a week since that incident. And they also didn't know about him being in coma." She stated.

"Chase, Skye, you need to come and see him."
