Paw Patrol: A Runaway Pup

Chapter Fourteen

While that was happening, Rocky, Rubble, and Skye, however, were anxiously pacing around inside the Lookout.

"Man, every time I see Chase I feel like my tongue is gonna slip and spill the secret," Rubble said.

"I know, right? Can we just say it?" Rocky asked.

"No, we can't! We promised, right? Whether they have found Marshall by now or not, we're not gonna tell him," Skye said.

"Okay, then! But if he questions us, you're gonna say it by force!" Rocky replied.

"Hold on, what?" Skye asked, making sure she heard it right.

"You wanna keep hiding this secret from Chase? Then you're gonna tell him by force when he finds us suspicious." Rocky said.

"Hey! Zuma told you in the first place. So you should tell him," Skye argued.

"No! I'm not gonna tell him... You are!" Rocky argued back.

"No, you are!" Skye answered back, angrily.

"Hey! Would you two shut up?!" Rubble yelled.

"Paw Patrol, to the Lookout!" Chase's voice was heard over their pup tags.

"Huh?" Rocky said.

"Chase needs us!" Skye and Rubble said at once, heading to the elevator. Rocky followed in as well.

However, Rocky stepped on a ball and the ball rolled toward the elevator with him, crashing into Skye and Rubble.

"Sorry about that! But it was the ball's fault, not mine," Rocky joked.

"Thanks for taking over on Marshall's part for now," Skye giggled. The three pups giggled as the elevator closed.

As the elevator reached the top and opened, the three pups hopped out in front of Chase, who was waiting for them already.

"Paw Patrol ready for action, uh... Chase, sir?" Skye said, quite unsure how to say it since they were so used to calling Ryder.

"Thanks for coming here, even though it's just the four of us..." Chase said.

"What's the emergency?" Rubble asked.

"Well, you see, I'm getting really worried about Ryder and Zuma. It's been almost all day and we haven't heard from them yet. So, I think we should start looking for them now," Chase told them.

Rocky, Rubble, and Skye all looked at each other quietly but with worry. Chase noticed this and thought of asking.

"Is there a problem?"

"Oh, uh... No, Chase! Nothing to worry about, really," Rocky answered.

"Because it looks like there is..." Chase replied to him, looking as if they were all suspicious.

"Oh shoot," Rocky whispered.

"Shut up, you!" Skye whispered back, angrily.

"Uhm, is there something going on that I don't know?" Chase asked.

"Well, yes! And Skye is planning on telling you already," Rocky answered, honestly.

"What? Me? No, not gonna happen!" Skye denied.

"Skye, what was that you wanted to say?" Chase questioned.

"I think it was Rocky who wanted to tell you, not me!" Skye said, passing it on to Rocky.

"Oh, would you stop it? You told me that you would tell him!" Rocky argued.

"No! I never said yes to that!" Skye argued back.
