Skye ran out of the forest, to the lookout. She ran up the hill, and into her open pup house. She closed the door behind her. Her eyes filled with tears, she started to weep. She started to Cry over her dead parent, her dead sister.
Her family..Gone
Sometimes she could still hear her sister, laughing, and calling her. She put her head into her pillow, slowly making it damp with tears. She was glad the two men who killed them, were now going to be put in prison...But, she was angry, angry at the two men who killed them. But mostly angry at herself for raging on them, even though they had killed them.
She slowly lifted her head up from her pillow, she sat against the metal walls of her lookout. She turned her head to her clock. She could sit there and do nothing for hours, apon hours of time. Grieving over their death. She couldn't let them go. But deep inside she knew she had to.
She could still hear the gunshots being fired, it rang in her ear, over, and over, and over again. Their laugh. She could still see a vivid image of their dead bodies. She reached over and took out a small picture frame. It was her and her family, when she was young.
"Hey guys..I made my promise." She said, weakly smiling at the picture. A tear drops onto it. "I got the people who murdered you." She said, dimly. More tear drops follow onto the glass frame. She hugged it tight. She felt like she was in her embrace of her family again.
She does this everytime she feels like she just needs a extra boost for the day.
Knock..Knock..
She looked back at her clock, it had been 30 whole minutes. She put away the frame and opened the door to a German Shepherd, "Skye, tell me what happened back there." Chase said, sitting down In front of the door. She walked closer to him and hugged him.
"Ok." She whispered.
She pulled away from the hug and looked at his comforting smile. She took a deep breath and sighed.
"I don't really like talking about this but...Way Before I joined the Paw Patrol. It was just me My parents and my younger sibling, Amber. We all used to have so much fun. My Sister and I loved exploring, we used to always be out and about, doing crazy adventures with each other." Skye said, a small smile started but faded quickly.
"But,..one time when were out for a picnic. My sister asked my Parents if we could, explore the forest. They said yes and we went out and left, not thinking much about it. But as we were playing, we..heard a Gunshot." Skye said, hesitantly. "A-And we went back to got Check up on our P-Parents b-but when we got there they.." Skye started to shake her head preventing her from crying.
"A-And we..A-And we saw them..Motionless on the ground..and we tried to run but..W-We couldn't. W-We just sat there and cried. T-They turned our way and dragged us where our parents had been shot...and they..and.." Skye said trying to get the words out. "A-And they shot my little sister In front of me." Skye started to tear up, she was warmly embraced with a hug from Chase.
"I'm sorry." Chase said, hugging Skye. "I-It's fine." Skye said hugging back. They stayed like that for awhile, until they broke apart. "Thank you." Skye said, weakly smiling at the German Shepherd.
"Anytime." He smiled back. "I'm going to go get something to eat." Skye got up and wiped her tears, before leaving she kissed his cheek. Chase watches as the Cockapoo walks into the lookout, his heart racing.
"I love you so much." He says to himself. "But I wish I could tell you." Chase said, putting his paw to his chest. He sighs, he gets up and walks inside as well.
He looks around the lookout, just how it was a few hours ago. He walks to the elevator and rides up. He sees Ryder looking over the balcony, to the town. "Hey Ryder." Chase said walking up to his owner. Ryder looks behind to him and smiles.
"Hey Chase." Ryder says, looking back over. "Did you send the two to Prison?" Chase asks, standing next to him. "Yup, and they are going to pay for their crimes." Ryder says, but something feels off.
"What's wrong?" Chase asks. Ryder sighs and looks down at him. "It's Skye. I just wonder what she meant when she yelled at the two men." Ryder says scratching his forehead. "I tried asking the two men but they said nothing." Ryder walks away from the balcony, he sits onto a bean bag and sighs.
"You should ask Skye then." Chase smiled looking at his owner. Chase walked back to the Elevator and rode back down. He watched Skye talking with the other pups, and having fun. He smiled seeing them having such a great time.
But he just wanted to tell her how he felt. His heart was telling him yes, but his mind told him no. He was torn between the two. Skye turned her head and smiled. 'Thank you.' She mouthed to him. Chase smiled back, her warm smile always filled his heart with joy.
He walked out the lookout, his heart still torn by both voices. 'Chase!'
"What." He answered back in a whisper. 'Tell her you like her!' He started to violently shake his head. A Imagny version of himself appeared. 'Do it.' The Imagny Chase said, He started to walk uncontrollably to the lookout but was stopped by another version of himself.
'Don't do it buddy.' The other one said, Chase started to back away, to his Pup house.
'Do it!'
'Don't do it!'
The two imaginary Chase's both walked up to each other and started to wrestle. 'Do IT!'
'DON't DO IT'
He was being pulled everywhere. His heart verses his Mind.
'DO IT!' The Imaginary Chase said, wrestling with the other.
'DON'T DO IT.' The other on said, about to punch the other one. Chase couldn't take it.
"Stop!" He said sternly, the imaginary Chase's stop, midway about to punch. His Imaginary selves both stop and look at him. "I am not going to listen to either of you." Chase pointed to them both.
"Chase, you alright buddy?" Chase whipped his head behind him and he saw Marshall, looking very confused at him.
'Busted.'' The two Imaginary Chases say in sync. "Shut-it." Chase said looking at the two. "Chase?" Marshall calls again. "Yes Marsh?" Chase said looking Marshall's way. "You..Alright?" Marshall says, walking closer.
"I'm just fine Marshall, why do you ask?" Chase said, in his usual tone. "Cause..It seemed you were talking to..the air." Marshall says pointing where Chase was talking to. 'Hey, we are not AIR.' One of Imaginary Chase say, crossing his arms.
"No, buddy. I was...Practicing.." Chase said, making a random Excuse. "What were you practicing?" Marshall says Ecstatic. He didn't want to let his buddy down. "..Singing.." Chase hesitated.
"What were you singing?" Marshall says, excited. Chase looked behind him to his two Imaginary selves Shaking their head. 'You go yourself into this on.' The first on said, shaking his head, with his arms crossed.
He turned back to Marshall, he was smiling, wanting to know.
|Song Incoming.|
Chase starts to look around the area, thinking of a song. He looks back at Marshall, and awkwardly smiles.
I wanna follow where she goes
Marshall is astonished by his voice.
I think about her and she knows it
I wanna let her take control
'Chase, you are literally making up words.' His imaginary self acknowledged.
Cause everytime that she gets close, yea
Chase starts to slowly get into the song, feeling it's rhythm. He slowly starts to plaster on a smile.
She pulls me in enough to keep me guessing (mmm)
And maybe I should stop and start confessing
His mind, then pictures Skye. He looks up to the sky, and starts to full on smile.
Confessing, yeah
He looks back at Marshall, 'Either I'm a Idiot for doing this or have a very good friend.' He thought to himself. He takes a deep breath.
Oh, I've been shaking
I love it when you go crazy You take all my inhibitions Baby, there's nothing holdin' me back
You take me places that tear up my reputation
Manipulate my decisions
Baby, there's nothing holdin' me back
There's nothing holdin' me back
There's nothing holdin' me back
Chase then stops and looks at Marshall. "Dude, you have a great voice." Marshall complements. "Thanks Marshall." Chase says, awkwardly smiling.
