It was a bright and sunny day in Adventure Bay. Six months had passed since Sweetie, Mayor Humdinger, the Kitty Katastrophe Crew, and a vengeful sorcerer named Almuzar had taken over Adventure Bay and the revelation of the PAW Patrol's ancestry. The PAW Patrol now had two new members, namely their former pirate enemies Sid Swashbuckle and his pup Arrby. At the Lookout, a crowd was gathered there as the team was being interviewed by Mayor Goodway for Hello Adventure Bay.
"Good morning everyone. I'm here with Chickaletta, my co-host, and today, we're talking to Ryder and the PAW Patrol. The heroes of Adventure Bay." Mayor Goodway said as she faced the camera.
The team was standing by Mayor Goodway dressed in their uniforms and gear looking proud and professional.
"So Ryder, pups, we all want to know, how do you manage to do amazing and daring rescues?" Mayor Goodway asked excitedly.
"Well, we always work as a team." Ryder replied.
"We all know what our jobs are." Marshall added.
"Ryder's the best leader ever." Skye said.
"He gives the best treats ever." Rubble added.
"Plus, we're a family and we never give up." Chase said.
"Not to mention we also come up with a good plan to make sure everyone is saved." Rocky said.
The
"And don't forget a little spiritual guidance as well." said a voice as seven orbs of light manifested into figures. Charles and the Canine Knights of Barkingburg.
"Don't worry, we weren't going to forget that." Zuma said.
"Well you better not or we won't be happy." Arthur, Zuma's ancestor, said with a chuckle.
"Yeah, we also get help from our ancestors as well." Ryder added.
When Adventure Bay had been taken over, the team found out that they were the descendants of the Canine Knights, the heroes of Barkingburg. And ever since, the Knights had stuck around and became Adventure Bay's resident spirits. They were even helping the PAW Patrol and giving them tips on forming plans and how to direct rescues.
"I still can't get over the fact at how alike you all look." Mayor Goodway said.
It was true as the pups and Ryder resembled their ancestors in many ways. The only real noticeable difference were that the Knights wore knights armor and had Barkingburg accents.
"Well, we are related after all." Chance, Chase's ancestor, said with a smile.
"Not to mention they also have a lot of our character traits." Granite, Rocky's ancestor, added.
"Yeah." Blaze, Marshall's ancestor, said, "And we.." At the moment, Blaze hadn't watched where he was going and accidentally tripped and got tied in some electrical cords and was now rolling everywhere until he crashed into his teammates.
"Blaze." the other Knights said smiling at their clumsy fire pup.
"What? I got tied up in something." Blaze responded. Everyone laughed.
"Marshall, I think we found out where you get your clumsiness from." Skye said giggling.
"And your puns." Rubble added.
"Like we said, you're a lot like us." Richard, Rubble's ancestor, said.
"Well, there you have it Adventure Bay. The secrets to the PAW Patrol's success. We're about out of time folks." Mayor Goodway said facing the camera, "Now back to the studio for cooking with Farmer Yumi."
Everyone clapped, and the crowd broke up. The news crew began putting up their equipment, and Mayor Goodway and her purse chicken headed back to Town Hall.
"Well, we have to go now, but we'll see you later." Skyler, Skye's ancestor, said as she and her pack mates vanished. Just then, a familiar person walked up.
"Hey Ryder, hey pups." Katie said as she walked up, her long blonde hair bouncing as she walked.
"Hey Katie." Ryder said, his brown eyes lighting up at the sight of his girlfriend.
Knowing their leader wanted some alone time with Katie, the pups left them alone, but not without a little tease.
"Ryder and Katie sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G." they teased as the went into the Lookout.
The two looked at each other and shook their heads knowing the pups would never let it go.
"Hey, we still on for tonight?" Katie asked.
"Yep." Ryder replied, "Meet me by Mr. Porter's at 5."
And with that, Katie left to get cleaned up and ready for the night. Meanwhile, Ryder got things ready, with the pups insisting on helping. After that, Ryder got ready as well. At 5, the two met up by Mr. Porter's.
"Where are we going?" Katie asked as Ryder had his hands over her eyes.
"If I told you, it wouldn't be a surprise." Ryder replied smiling, "You don't trust me?"
"No, I do." Katie replied with a laugh.
"Ok, now you can look." Ryder said as he took his hands off her eyes.
Katie opened her blue-green eyes and gasped. She'd been led to the beach for a picnic under the stars.
"You did this for me?" Katie asked with a big smile.
"Well, the pups insisted on helping, but yes." Ryder replied.
The two sat down on the blanket and ate some snacks. They looked at the stars shining over the bay and talked for awhile.
"You know, it's so interesting that your ancestor and his pups were just like you and the pups." Katie said.
"I know. Now I know where I get it from." Ryder replied.
"Do you think Almuzar will come back?" Katie asked.
Before Ryder could answer, he saw the Periscope move a little.
"They're looking at us, aren't they?" Katie asked with a grin.
"Yeah. Hold on." Ryder said. He took out his pup pad and pressed a button.
At the Lookout, the pups were standing on each other, Chase being at the bottom since he had the stronger back and Skye being on top since she was smaller, were looking through the Periscope.
"You see them?" Marshall asked.
"Yep." Skye replied, "And it's so adorable."
All of a sudden, a steel slat went over the eye lense, making everything go black. The pups then fell and landed in a pile. A voice then came through their pup tags.
"Nice try pups." Ryder said.
"Awww." the pups said as they tried to get out of the pile.
Ryder then put his pup pad away, and said to Katie, "They're probably gonna do that again."
"You know they're just trying to look out for you." Katie said biting into an apple, "After all, you gave them a scare when you went up against Almuzar."
"I know." Ryder replied looking out at the bay, "They also made me swear to never do that again."
"I'm sure." Katie replied.
After a while, the two decided to call it a night. Katie headed back to her pet parlor, and Ryder went back to the Lookout. The pups were watching Apollo Superpup and he joined them until it was to go to bed. The pups went to their pup houses and fell fast asleep.
Meanwhile in a cave, high in the mountains in Barkingburg, a figure was standing in the dark, deep in his thoughts about the past six months.
He had planned out his revenge, got reinforcements, and the Scepter of Immortality, but it all backfired. Now he was dead and the scepter was who knows where.
His eyes grew darker as he thought about that kid and his pups. The descendants of his enemies. His thoughts were interrupted by a female voice.
"Sir? We got the artifacts and other materials from the castle and museum." the voice said.
"Excellent my dear." the ghost said before turning to someone else, "Have you found out where the scepter and jewels are?"
"Well based on the amount of magic the jewels give off, I've managed to narrow the possibilities down to the PAW Patrol's Lookout." the almost child-sounding voice replied.
"Good. The sooner we get the scepter, the sooner we get our revenge." the figure said with an angry tone.
