Rocky? Gone? What happened? The police pup wanted to ask Ryder thousands of questions, but he didn't seem in the mood to answer them. Maybe he was just tired. It was really late, after all. Chase was about to leave, when something put its arm around his shoulder.

"Hey Chase." It was Marshall. His face was barely visible in the moonlight.

"Marshall?" he replied.

He blushes slightly, but Chase doesn't notice.

"How's Skye doing?" asked Marshall.

"Oh, I paid her a visit the other day. She was doing OK. She was unconcious, but she was alive. For sure."

Marshall hesitated. "D-Do you um, want, uh nevermind."

Chase raised an eyebrow at Marshall, then shrugged.

"Anyway, do you know what happened to Rocky?"

Marshall gulped and looked away. "No idea. I think he got dumped by Everest and he got all angry and stuff."

"Oh," replied Chase.

Marshall gazed fixedly into Chase's eyes, but they wouldn't meet.

"Uh, I need to go," Marshall finally said. Chase watched as the Dally walked away.

Marshall went to his puphouse. He was thinking about Chase. I'm never going to be with him. I can't even speak to him. He will never like me back. I'm just a useless pup.

Time Skip

Rocky was homeless for seven days, starving on the streets. Telling anyone that he got kicked from the Paw Patrol would make him the laughingstock of Adventure Bay. It's just too embarrassing for the little pup.

Marshall, Chase, Everest and Ryder all hate me. Nobody likes me. I don't deserve anything.

Tears of sorrow and hatred flowed down his cheeks. He was tired and weak. He was starving. He had almost no flesh on his bones. His ribcage was outlined and visible. He could barely walk. Exhausted, his vision started to blur. He then collapsed right in front of Katie's pet shop.

The next morning, Rocky woke up in a soft bed. "Good morning Rocky," smiled a familiar voice.

Katie.

Katie brought Rocky a big bowl full of pup food.

Sniff, sniff. What's that smell? It smells like. . . Food!

Rocky gobbled down the pup food like it was the last thing he was ever gonna eat. And God, it tasted like heaven to him.

Katie patiently waited for Rocky to finish his food. When he did, he thanked her for the food and licked his lips.

"So," said Katie. "Tell me what happened."

Rocky explained everything to her. Skye's accident, Chase running away, Everest, and getting kicked from the Paw Patrol.

"Oh, you poor thing," said Katie as she stroked Rocky on the head. "You can stay here as long as you like."

Ryder was sitting in his beanbag chair, watching Couple Goals videos on YouTube. He sighed.

Suddenly, his phone rang. "Ryder!" It was Cap'n Turbot. "Hey, I uh got myself into a seriously scary situation here! My beautiful big boat got smashed by a scary sea surfer! I'm fine, but my vessel is in vital condition. Could the Paw Patrol lend a paw? Please hurry! And thanks!"

Click!

"Paw Patrol, To the Lookout!" Ryder instantly skyrocketed out of his beanbag. This was the excitement that he needed to get back to leading. He quickly changed into his uniform and awaited the pups near the big screen.

Chase, followed by the other three pups, rised from the elevator and leaped into position. "Ready for action, Ryder sir!"

"Alright pups, we have an emergency! Cap'n Turbot's boat has been attacked by a bunch of sharks! We need to fix his boat and send the sharks off!"

Zuma tilted his head to the side. "Shawks? In Adventure Bay? That's stwange!" Zuma was an expertly informed marine biologist in Adventure Bay. "Shawks usually live in salted waters, but Adventure Bay has no sodium at all!"

Ryder nodded. "That is strange! We will focus on that another time, for now, we need to make sure everyone is safe! For this mission I'll need. . .

Zuma! I need you to go and find a way to get the sharks away from the Cap'n, and back into the sea!"

Zuma wagged his tail. "Lets dive in!" He was fearless.

"Chase, I'll need you to use your megaphone to call everyone who may be swimming in the bay back to shore! And in case the sharks get aggressive towards Zuma, I'll need your net to catch them!"

Chase nodded. "Chase is on the case!"

"Paw Patrol is on a roll!" Ryder smiled. Chase and Zuma went down the slide, and the mission began.

Rocky and Katie went together to the beach for some R&R. It was a perfect sunny day for the perfect occasion. They both had pairs of sunglasses, and lied down on the sand. Who knew they had so much in common?

- Weeoeweeoweeo!

Rocky's ears perked up to the familiar sound. Chase. "Oh no, I gotta go," he said as he ran. He jumped and hid behind some bushes.

"Everybody clear from the water! This is a shark emergency!" yelled Chase through his megaphone.

Everybody shrieked. People were running all over the place, and out of the water. "Everybody, please remain calm!" pleaded Chase.

Nobody listened. The townspeople suddenly all ran like a horde of buffalos towards Main Street.

"Please remain-

The people trampled all over Chase, leaving him with scars and bruises everywhere. He probably had a missing tooth as well. Ow. Katie came to his rescue. She rushed to bring Chase to her clinic.

Ryder and Zuma arrived to the boat. Cap'n Turbot was running in circles, yelling help help help over and over again.

"Zuma, you're up!" he said.

Zuma dove underwater in his submarine, in search of the sharks. He didn't find anything. "Rwyder, come in Rwyder! The sharks are not coming!"

"Hmm," thought Ryder. "Try getting out of the sub. They might be scared of the whirring sound from your propellors. But be careful, okay?"

Zuma nodded and deactivated his puptag. He brought his sub to surface and hopped out. "Lets do this," he said.

Zuma plunged into the watery darkness in search of the sharks. The clouds started to hover over the sky. The water pup tried to remain brave as darkness took over the bay.

Zuma called in for Chase. "Chase, come in. Bwing your net now."

No answer.

"Chase?" repeated Zuma.

No answer.

Zuma jerked his head back and saw a massive head jet towards him.
