That afternoon, the alarm sounded at the lookout. A hiker had twisted her ankle in the forest trails.

Ryder: Paws on, paw patrol! There's no time to take the hovercrafts. You'll have to rescue on foot.

The pups sprung into action at the sound of the alert. Without their hovercrafts, rescuing on paw would require even more teamwork.

Ryder briefed them on the situation. "A hiker named Jenna twisted her ankle 1 mile into the Gale Trail. You'll have to split up to cover more ground quickly."

Chase took charge. "Alright team, Marshall and I will check the west side of the trail. Rubble, you and Rocky search east. Skye, fly overhead and radio if you spot anything. Everest, scale the hills and keep an eye out from high ground."

The pups set off on their assignments. Chase and Marshall moved swiftly through the forest, sniffing for clues.

Chase: Anything sniffing out Marshal?

Marshall gave the air a good sniff. "I think I smell...pine trees! And something else...dirt?"

Chase chuckled. "Keep trying buddy. We need to find Jenna!"

Meanwhile, Rubble and Rocky searched the eastern side of the trail. Rubble stopped to dig at something under the leaves.

Rubble: Hey Rocky, give me a paw here! I found something metal.

Sure enough, it was Jenna's hiking pole. "Good work Rubble! She can't be far."

Overhead, Skye soared through the treetops. She spotted movement below. "Guys I see someone! About 100 yards north of Rubble and Rocky's position."

Everest heard Skye's message from a nearby ridge. She bounded down the rocky slope, following the sounds of pained grunting until she came upon Jenna.

Everest: Don't worry, help is here. My friends are on their way.

In no time, Marshall and Chase rushed into the clearing where Everest was soothing Jenna's pain.

Marshall: Let me take a look at that ankle. Yep it's swelled up good.

He pulled bandages and ice packs from his bag. With care, he wrapped Jenna's injury.

By then, Rocky, Rubble and Skye had arrived. Rubble dug out his stretcher so they could move Jenna safely.

Chase radioed Ryder with an update. "injured hiker has been located and stabilized. Requesting pickup for transport back to town."

Soon they heard the whirring of the air patroller overhead. Ryder lowered down the rescue hoist.

Ryder: Great job pups! You really came together as a team for this rescue on paw.

As they started back to the lookout, Chase surveyed the group with pride. "Nice work everyone. Even without tech, this just proves what an amazing rescue unit we are."

The pups barked and yipped in agreement, still full of energy despite their aching paws. A good rest would be waiting back home, where no doubt Nixie's new gear upgrades were nearing completion too. Their hard work paid off to help another citizen of Adventure Bay, and further strengthened their team bonds. Just another successful rescue for the Paw Patrol!
