Ricky POV 

      I woke up and stretched the very next day. I was still snuggled up next to Uncle Rocky. I went over the Max's pup house and opened the door, but he wasn't there. I checked all around the lookout. When I decided to look through the periscope, he was tied up in the back of a carriage. It was driven by none other than Gemstone. I growled. Gemstone looked up and saw I was watching her, and put a knife to Max's neck. He was trembling with fear. I decided that was it. "Ryder, come in. Max has been taken! We need all the pups to the lookout." A few minutes later, the others came and we got in order. "Ready for action, Ryder, sir! But, where's Max?" I sighed sadly. "That's the emergency. My sister pup napped him and they are probably heading to foggy bottom." Everypup gasped and started whispering. Ryder began to assign the pups. "Chase, go with Jack to get a hold of Gemstone. Maddie, use your mapping drone to keep track of them. Rocky, go with Jet to craft or find a pocket knife to cut the rope. And Ricky, you know more about Gemstone than any of us, so we need you right by our side. PAW Patrol is on a roll!" We howled. I slid down into my food truck, then pushed the button that transfered it into a car. I sped after the cart. I signaled Rocky, who jumped and used the pocket knife to cut some off the ropes. Maddie spoke. "Come in Ricky. Gemstone is heading for the bay! Stand by!" I nodded and sped after Gemstone. "Hmmmm, should I stab his head or his heart," Gemstone muttered. Then she snickered and stopped on the beach. Ricky walked quietly to Max. Max had something stuffed in his mouth and could barely talk. "Mhm, khmh-" "Sh! She'll hear us. I'm gonna get you outta here. I'll call Jet." My pup tag blinked an orange color. "Jet," I whispered, "all clear. Start cutting, please." 

Meanwhile, in Foggy Bottom...

Shimmer POV

      "When's Gemstone gonna get back, pops?"

      "I don't know, Shimmer. But she'll have that poodle mix done for. He'll be treasure at the bottom of the bay soon. She may be able to bring the little runt back so we can beat him... maybe even torture him by slowly killing them..."

Back at the bay...

Gemstone POV

      I got a radar call from dad explaining a new plan. I ran back to the wagon, only to find the Pest Patrol cutting at the rope. I barked sharply and got Ricky on the wagon. I drove off into the bay and pushed the water button. We were on top of the waves, and now heading towards Foggy Bottom. I expected Ricky to be thrown off the wagon. But when I looked back at the wagon, I found out I was wrong. "Hi sis! Missed me?" I growled, but shook it off. I continued to drive until I heard a giant helicopter. I stopped and looked up. Another pup, a shepherd mix, dove down in green, blue, and orange jets. Ricky waved happily. I drove faster. I made it past a hovercraft, a helicopter, and even and engineer (A/N - Seastar is the engineer)! When I reached the island, I heard the poodle mix gulp and submit.

Ricky POV

      "Give it up, Rick," Max said. "We can't defeat her, let alone your other siblings and parents." I smiled. "Don't worry Max, I have a plan." I looked down at my pup tag and whispered again. "We need all the pups to get here somehow." "But," Kayla said back though the pup tag, "how?" I thought for a few seconds but then I remembered something. "The Air Patroler! Remember, you guys took it to Barkingburg, an-" 

      Suddenly, something exploded, and heard my parents bark in delight.

To be continued...

Well guys, I know you probably didn't read this right away because most of you are having time with family and unwrapping presents and such. But if you're me, you celebrate Hanukkah. So I decided to finish Part I of the three or maybe four parts of the rescue... Even getting fancy with the Roman numerals. So that's about it, and my question is...

How do you think this will end, other than Max and Ricky being romantically connected?

What exploded?

And why did Gemstone use a wooden wagon knowing it could easily catch fire?

See ya!
