Shattered

"Goodbye, my phenomena." (Chapter 9)

"Ohhhh, I see. But Marshall, u don't need others' opinions just to be you, you know." She holds his left paw, letting out her gentle tone.

"Th-thanks, guys." He gently smiled at the two.

While enjoying their moment, they have been interrupted by the door opening to reveal the boy and the three pups entered the room.

"Hey, Chase. Skye. Marshall." He greeted one by one, receiving a small smile on him.

"What happened to Marshall? Why is there so many tubes attached to its face?" The bulldog looked at the dally. The cockapoo just makes an upset face and growled softly.

"Skye, don't." The shepherd was the one to notice that she growled. He saidly while whispering. Slye gently calmed herself down.

"Guys, he was in coma for a week. We didn't tell you about this that is because you don't feel any remorse after what you all just said." The shepherd saidly in an gentle tone.

"His car was crashed by a sudden driver that is sleeping, tried to wake him up with his siren, but didn't hear. So, yeah." He added.

The three pups looked at Marshall, with their full of ashames to their face. They did feel remorse after the day where they insulted him 'cause of his clumsiness.

"Actually, three of us did feel remorse, we were regretting all of the words that we say towards him. Me, Rubble and Zuma quickly accepted Ryder's offer to come here and visit Marshall." The mix-breed stated, making the cockapoo and the shepherd surprised by his sudden confession.

"We understand, you three, but next time, be careful with your words. It might be considered as insult." The three nod and looked at the dal.

"I'm sorry, Rocky, Rubble, Zuma. If I wasn't being a klutz, none of this would've happened." Marshall said with his voice being normal.

"No, Marshall. We should be the one to say sorry. I know my board it can fix for an hour but you, a friend that is ever wanted to be. We're sorry." The bulldog whine, embracing for what he will say.

"I forgive you three." By the sudden spoke coming from the dally, the three looked at him. "But I need to gain my trust again with you three again." The three pups understands it and nods.

"That's my pups! Remember, we are a family, and families will always comes first." The boy stated. "Come here you pups, let's have our family hug." All the pups hugged the boy, their bonds have been returned, so as their friendship.

Few days have passed since Marshall's phenomena, they are still in the hospital, waiting for the doctor to announce something.

"When will the doctor gets here? I'm tired of sitting and doing nothing." The labrador groaned.

The door of the room opened and the doctor entered with his nurse, Jeremy.

"Ok, Marshall's condition is now good, stable and ready to go." The doctor smiled.
"Be careful, Marshall, ok?" The nurse added, earning a small laugh from the doctor. "You really know all of them, do you, Jeremy?"
"That's what we do, Doc. To make sure they are safe when they get out." The nurse said.

"Thanks for the concern, Mr. Jeremy-" "Jeremy, just call me Jeremy." The dal smiled. "Ok, Jeremy."

The Paw Patrol got out of the hospital, all nurses wave goodbye as they stroll out.

"Wow, we are known for our kindness. Dope!" The lab stated, earning a laughter to the group. "We've been a rescue team for a year or two now, Zuma, so people knows us more." Zuma smiled sheepishly and chuckled nervously. "Yea, you're right."

They drove away towards the lookout.

A glimpse of a orange figure and a green car, and a pup was seen by the eyes of Chase. "Hey, isn't that Carlos and Tracker?" Ryder looked at the lookout, he sees also the same. "I think so, pups." But what Ryder doesn't realize that Chase was smirking secretly at the boy.

"Chase, what the heck is wrong with you? Why are you smirking like you have something in your mind." The dally notices the smirk on the shepherd's face. He took off the smirk and wears a small smile.

"Uh, nothing..?" Chase giggled and looked at his mate. "I'll tell you when we get there." Marshall raises his eyebrow but nods.

They've reached the lookout, earning a wave from the boy and the chihuahua. "Hola, pups, and Ryder.." the boy's scarlet hue was seen, but not totally, it was like small hue.

"Where have you guys been? The lookout was empty when we got here."

"Oh, we just picked Marshall to the hospital." Ryder stated, earning a confused face. "Marshall went into the condition, Coma. He was in a coma for a week."

"That's terrible, but good thing he's ok now." Tracker said.

"By the way, what are you two doing here at the Adventure Bay?" The boy looked at the two.

"Oh, Chase said you'll be hosting a sleepover, WITH only us in it." Ryder's eyes went wide. He looked at Chase with 'what the heck' face.

"Oh, yeah, I was. I MEAN, it was Chase's idea to host a sleepover." Ryder said in an gentle tone.
"Hey, you accepted the offer, Ryder. So you'll be hosting this sleepover, tonight. So you can.. you know.." Chase winked two times, the other pups including Marshall looked at him, not knowing what he meant.

"Ugh, fudge!" Ryder groaned.

"Anyway, park your vehicles into your spot. Me and Carlos are gonna get ready for our sleepover tonight." Ryder stated, making the pups nod and go to their spots.

After they put their trucks, which turns into a puphouse then, Marshall walked at Chase. "Love, what was that smirk of yours before we got here?"

Chase looked at his mate, he questioned on why he was smirking. "Oh.. right. I supposed I could tell you that.." he walked a little bit closer to his ears. "..Ryder has a crush on Carlos." He kissed his neck after saying that, soft moan was coming out of the dal's mouth.

"Chase!" Blushing in embarrassment, the shepherd chuckled a bit. "But enough about it, how can you be so sure that Ryder has a crush on Carlos?"

"Ryder confessed to me, remember when we called you because you are not here. Actually, that happened." "Wow, didn't knew that Ryder is into zoologist or something what's it called." The two chuckled at their precious time talking about.. that.
