So, before I start, I'm sorry for not updating in.... let's just say..... FOREVER.

I get so much homework these days, not to mention a ton over the weekend, so it's very hard to find time to update. Right now, I'm in Georgia, going back to Jersey BY CAR from Florida. I had to sit in the middle, so the little sibling is always crying, the older sibling is always asking for food, and my mom is screaming her lungs out telling everyone to be quiet, not to mention the radio. So without further ado, here's the next chapter.

-------------

Rocky sat in his tent sadly, looking up into the sky. He thought about Zuma. Rocky knew that Zuma would get eliminated eventually, but he didn't think it would happen this early.

-

The next morning, the pups were sound asleep. The challenge the day before was tiring. Only Rocky, who had been up all night, had his eyes open. 

HONK!!!!

SkaseAndEvershall- WAKE UP PUPS!!!!

The pups groaned and walked over.

Chase interview- CAN A PUP EVER GET SLEEP.

SkaseAndEvershall- I hope you pups have been practicing, because we are playing tennis! We are going to warm up and split into teams of two and play a game I learned at tennis camp called ABC knockout! The team with the least points will split up and play one on one. Ready to warm up?

Rubble- Actually, I-

SkaseAndEvershall- Pawsome! Let's go!

The pups warmed up. Some were better than others at the sport.

Marshall interview- Why can't I hit the stupid ball?!

After a few minutes the pups were called back.

SkaseAndEvershall- I wrote all of your names on a piece of paper to pick out of a hat. Everest, however, came in first yesterday, and she will be picking her partner.

Chase interview- Aw f***.

Everest- I'll have to go with Marshall.

Marshall, who was shocked that Everest picked him, bounded forwards.

Everest interview- I picked Marshall because we work well together. We've been friends since the day we met. He's funny, but he's also determined, and doesn't give up on anything.

SkaseAndEvershall- Chase, you will be with Rubble.

Chase interview- Rubble's cool. He has a good swing, so I think him and I will make a great team.

SkaseAndEvershall- That leaves Skye and Rocky.

Skye- Rocky's ok. We both were really good friends with Zuma, so we fight for a common goal.

On one side, Chase, Skye, and Marshall waited for Rubble, Everest, and Rocky to get on the other  side of the net.

The ball was hit by Chase, towards Rocky. Rocky hit it to Marshall, who smacked it directly at Rubble. The pups watched in awe as the ball sped over the net. Rubble walked over to court B. Rocky was givin the next ball. He hit it at Marshall, who smacked it at Skye. The ball pivoted into Skye's paw. Skye walked off looking unphased by the ball hitting her paw, but now Chase is enraged! He is given the next ball and slams it at Rocky! Chase, Marshall, and Everest are left! Everest is given the ball and hits it to Chase, who smacks the ball at Marshall! It is Chase v. Everest for 4 points! Chase is given the ball and slams it at Everest, who simply hit it back. Chase ran to the net to give a volley back to Everest. Everest gave Chase a high ball and Chase is in for the slam! Chase howls excitedly and Rubble goes wild! Four points for Chase and Rubble!

On court b, Chase, Rocky, and Everest are on one side and Rubble, Skye, and Marshall are on the other. Rubble immediately smacks the ball at Everest, who smacks it right back! Rubble isn't giving up, though! He hits it to Rocky, who returned it, and it was too high for Rubble to get to! He moves down! Rocky hits the next ball to Marshall, who hit it to Chase, who isn't able to return it! Chase moves down! Now Skye hits it to Everest, who smacks it back! Skye hits it softly to Rocky, who slammed it at Marshall, and he hits it back! Rocky moves down! Everest is given the ball and hits it at Skye, who slams it back and Everest is out! It's Skye v. Marshall for three points, and both could really use it! Skye hits the ball to the front of the court, but Marshall hits it back and stays for a volley! Skye hits the ball soft and high ad Marshall can't get to it! Skye wins it for her and Rocky!

On court c, Chase, Rubble, and Skye are on one side and Rocky, Everest, and Marshall are on the other side. Chase smacks the ball at Everest, and she's already gone! Marshall's looking for payback and aims for Chase, but the ball heads for Skye! Skye is unable to react, but off the bounce it is hit by Chase, who ran directly behind Skye! Rocky can't return it and he's gone! Skye is forced to move to Marshall's side so it's not one one three. Rubble smacks it to Marshall, who hits it to Chase and he's out! Rubble hits to Skye, who swiftly returns it. Rubble gets to the ball and slams it at Marshall! It's between Rubble and Skye! This is for the win! Rocky and Chase are just about holding their breath! Rubble gets the feed and hits it Skye, who returns it. Rubble gets to the ball, but that was a tough one. Skye hits it back and Rubble hits a soft shot that hits the top of the net and pivots off of it! Skye just can't get to it! CHASE AND RUBBLE WIN! Both pups howl and celebrate so much, they were panting by the time they got to SkaseAndEvershall, who laughed and told them they would get their advantage next round. Marshall and Everest looked at each other sadly. 

Marshall- We have to face each other...

Everest- Yea, that sucks.

Both sighed and went back onto the court.
