Why..?

Unwelcoming Atmosphere

Chase's POV
I laid back on my seat while the other pups were asleep. I was stuck in thought about what had happened earlier today. Am I truly at fault? I thought to myself. Would all this never happened if I actually never met him? More thoughts popped into my head, this brainstorming is giving me a headache.

I could feel a glare on me, I looked down a little to see who was glaring at me.

Odd. The others are still asleep.

Then what or who could've glared at me?

Agh all these thinking really puts a toll on your mind. I need to take a rest.

I closed my eyes, hoping to get some rest before facing reality again.

(timeskip a bit forwards)

I tossed and turned, not managing to fall asleep. Something is not right.

From the moment I've gotten on the Paw Patroller, I've only felt unease, the atmosphere is dense, I could feel something or someone staring at me.

Great. Guess I'm not getting any rest after all.

I leaned back forwards, lightheaded.

Guess I could look through some of my stuff here to pass the time if I can't fall asleep.

I walked around, took out a photo album from a drawer in the back.

I flipped through the pages.

The first page, me at Marshall's birthday. He was bright and clumsy.

Where has the old us gone. I asked myself rhetorically before flipping through the pages again.

I kept looking at each photo in the album, observing each one. These were the good times. I guess I'll have to suffer the consequences of my previous actions.

I kept flipping through the album, until something odd appeared.

Multiple ripped pages. Huh? This album was kept in here for ages, who would be able to find it. I know Marshall is mad but he won't be mad enough to do this.

I kept flipping through the album, coming across more and more ripped or torn pages. Scratch marks, how?

This isn't right at all.

Then on the last page...

A distorted image of the accident.

Chills went down my spine, who took this picture.

And below the picture. Us, in the Paw Patroller. This is getting unnerving.

I tried to wake the others up, but they remained motionless.

I then checked the picture again, seeing that it was taken from the right side of the Paw Patroller. I climbed up the seats to look out the window.

Right as I looked out, and...

The last thing I saw, was a truck speeding right for us.

It collides with the Paw Patroller, and...

"Chase!"

My eyes shot wide open. I was back in my seat. Rocky beside me, with a worried expression.

"Dude, you alright? You seem, uh, distraught."

That, was the most, unnerving dream.

"Uh, yeah, I'm alright." I responded. I sat straight, hand against my head.

"Are you sure?" he asked out of concern. "I'm fine" I responded blandly.

He nodded and sat back in his seat.

What. Was. That. I thought to myself, I have never experienced that ever. Have I gone insane? Is this a sign? I had many questions. And the headaches return.

"Alright pups, we are here!" Ryder informed us from the front. The other pups got up from their seat and looked out the windows. They all howled in awe, seeing how the big the city really is.

"This is incredible!" Rubble said in awe, he still acts like a child, I thought to myself, as I looked out the window, observing the area.

Something is going to go downhill, I can feel it.

We kept driving down the road. About a few minutes later, we arrived at the Pup Tower in Adventure City. The Paw Patroller enters through a gate at the front of the tower, and parks inside.

We all got off then went to the elevator to take us to the top floor.

"This looks amazing! How'd we not know about this for so long?" Zuma questioned himself rhetorically. Heck, not even I knew this was here.

We reached the top floor, the elevator doors opened to a bright ray of sunlight. "Oh my-" Skye said, as she stared at what lays in front of us.

A high tech room with state of the art technology, holographic map that projects a replica of the city, you name it, we have it. We explored a little, walking around the room.

"How did we afford all of this?" Skye asked out of curiosity. "Officially licensed Paw Patroller Merchandise, you have no idea how good these stuff sell for." Ryder said. We kept exploring, getting used to how this place was arranged and organized. This place is massive! Even I might get lost if I stumble too far. I thought to myself.

I felt myself at ease, for now.
