《Mystery of Redpaw (PAW Patrol Fanfic)》The Clues (Part One)
Advertisement
As Skye flew over the bay, Chase nervously shifted in his seat. His fur was brushed up against Skye's and he was blushing like mad. He tried his best not to show it, but his body betrayed him. His ears were flattened against his head. He sat on her right, avoiding her eyes. "Chase?" she asked. "Are you alright?"
He gulped. "Y-yeah." Releasing a breath he didn't know he was holding, he sighed. "Just worried about Redpaw, that's all."
Skye placed her paw on Chase's, causing him to suppress a yelp. "He's going to be fine. Rocky will talk to him."
"Y-yeah..." the shepherd stuttered. Skye giggled knowingly. She landed her chopper just a few feet away from Everest and Mr. Porter. Both pups hopped out, rushing onto the scene.
Everest noted Chase's behavior as well as his scent. "Everything okay?"
Chase turned his head before realizing what was wrong. He forced his ears upward. "Yeah, yeah, everythings fine. Mr. Porter, how are you?"
"I'd be better if we knew where Alex was. Someone took him."
"Who?" Chase barked.
"I don't know. They took my van." He sat on the ground. "Alex," he groaned. "I'm so sorry. If anything happens to him I'll-"
"Don't worry, Mr. Porter," Skye said. "Chase and Everest are on this."
"I searched the house and it's surroundings," Everest said. "There's tire tracks outside of the garage."
"Let's start there," Chase said. "Mr. Porter, Rocky and Redpaw should be at the Lookout, if you'd like to stay there in the meantime."
"No, I couldn't. I'm too worried about Alex." He knelt down on the ground. "Please find him."
Chase placed his paw on his shoulder. "We will." He looked at Everest. "Let's get to work."
"Come on," Skye said. "I'll take you to the Lookout."
Redpaw sat under the tree nearest the Lookout. He tried hard to remember the vision, every detail, but it was starting to fade. He whined in frustration. His ears twitched as he heard Rocky's vehicle.

"Redpaw, are you okay?" Rocky grabbed the first aid kit just in case. He trotted up to him, looking at him up and down. "Does anything hurt?"
"I'm fine," Redpaw said. "Just... confused." He was tearing up. "And scared." Rocky approached him, sitting next to the wolf pup.
"Was it a vision?" Redpaw nodded. "Of Alex?" He nodded once more, looking up at Rocky.
"He's locked in Mr. Porter's van, but I don't know where they took it." Rocky turned his head.
"Who?" Redpaw started trembling. He buried his muzzle into Rocky's chest, crying his eyes out.
"I didn't see!" he sobbed. "I'm sorry!" Rocky consoled him, wrapping his paws around the sad little wolf. "I'm sorry!"
"It's okay, Redpaw." He continued sobbing, soaking Rocky's fur. Ugh, wet- No! Focus. Crying pup in your arms. "We'll find him."
"H-how can you be s-so s-sure?" He looked up into Rocky's eyes.
"'Cause we're the PAW Patrol. No job is too big." He smiled. "And no pup is too small." He licked one of Redpaw's tears, causing him to giggle.
"Rocky," Chase said through his collar. "We need your forensic kit."
"What happened?" he asked, slight concern in his voice. He looked down at Redpaw, who merely turned his head I'm curiosity. "On second thought, never mind. I'm on my way."
"What's a fur-in-stick kit?" Redpaw asked as he jumped into Rocky's rig. Rocky giggled as he followed.
"Forensic," he corrected. "I'll explain on the way."
"Can I turn the sirens on?" Redpaw begged.
"Okay."
Redpaw howled as he flipped the switch, his tail swishing furiously behind him. Rocky forced the excited pup down to strap him in and took off, heading back towards town.
Redpaw wanted to go inside of Mr. Porter's, but Rocky forced him to stay with Skye. He went into the house and Everest came out. Pouting, he paced impatiently, tail wagging absentmindedly. "Redpaw, what's up?" Skye asked.

"I want to see what forensic stuff is!" he whined. "What's he doing in there?"
"He's just running some tests on something Chase found," Everest replied. "It isn't really all that exciting."
"Really?"
"Yeah," Skye agreed. "Chase showed me once. It's not that great. You have to wait for a computer to do all the work."
"That can take hours," Everest pointed out. "Why don't we try to find Alex in the meantime?"
Redpaw folded his ears, recalling his previous vision. The truck flashed in his mind. The sight of Alex bound and gagged in the back frightened him. Tears fell out of Alex's eyes. Gasping, Redpaw shook his head.
"Are you okay?" Everest asked. "Your eyes are glowing," she pointed out. Skye noticed his paws were glowing as well. She remembered what Rocky had said prior to Redpaw attacking.
"You're safe, pup," she said quietly, moving slowly towards the shaking wolf. "Everything's okay."
"Alex is in trouble!" he suddenly barked. He sniffed the air, walking towards the garage. Sniffing the tire tracks imprinted on the ground, he looked up towards the sky, taking in a deep breath. His eyes widened as his head pounded.
"What are you-" Everest said.
"Shh," Skye whispered. "He's part wolf. This must be an instinct."
Skye wasn't wrong. Redpaw was using his nose to track down Alex. But his brain was doing more than that. It was giving him visual clues, an exact path towards the van. He could even see their destination.
Alex was pulled out of the van roughly by a large man. Redpaw could smell something unnatural about him. He was frantic as his eyes scanned Alex. "Please don't hurt me," he begged, tears flowing down his cheeks.
"Shut up!" the man yelled. He burst into an unoccupied cabin, shoving the boy to the ground. Alex scrambled, desperately crawling away. "You're staying here, boy. You'll never see your stupid grandfather again or those mangy mutts you call friends."
"Who are you?" Alex yelled. "I don't know you!"
"I'm your-" At that moment, the vision faded. Redpaw felt extremely weak. Struggling to stay on his paws, he stumbled, trying to take a few steps.
"Alex..." he panted. He managed to look Everest in the eye. "Call Jake..." Skye rushed forward, realizing he was going to collapse. She grabbed his scruff before his eyes shut and eased him to the ground. He began shaking, not as strong as before, but enough to scare Everest and Mr. Porter.
"He's fine," Skye panted. "Everest, do what he said." She nuzzled Redpaw's muzzle. "You did a good job, pup."
Ryder and the pups were nearing their destination when Robo-Dog started acting strange. "What are you doing, boy?" Ryder asked. The PAW Patroller swerved, knocking Katie and the pups to the floor. Ryder immediately took control, disabling auto-pilot. "What happened to the GPS?" he asked.
"There's some sort of interference," Katie said. "I can't track the pups tags or get any kind of signal."
"Well, we're close. Pups, keep a lookout for a tall building."
"Uh, Ryder?" Marshall said. "There's no buildings anywhere." All around them, a beautiful landscape of trees and mountains in the far distance. Everything else was flat land.
"You're right," Ryder said, pulling the PAW Patroller over. "This doesn't make any sense."
Marshall, Rubble and Zuma all began whining. "Ryder! We've got to go, now!" Marshall barked.
Katie walked up to them. "What's wrong, guys?" The ground shook slightly.
"EARTHQUAKE!" the pups barked. They each ran for their rigs, hiding inside. The PAW Patroller shook violently as the earth moved underneath them. Ryder and Katie each held their hands above their head. The vehicle shifted as the ground opened up. They fell for a few seconds before it rolled over, knocking them around. Glass shattered. Screams and howls were heard. Then, there was silence.

Blightbane
Miscellaneous Notes: - I want to see about making a crude map of Shroud to help readers. - I also want to get back to writing Coalescence updates. Schedule Notes: - None for now, updates when I can. [ Thank you for your patience and support as I improve my writing and storytelling abilities. I'm also using this story to better develop lore that extends far beyond it. ] Thanks to another exceptionally talented artist, Hiroeth, Blightbane now has an official cover! Vera was alone again. “You’re completely unprepared. Never before has sending one of you off made me feel quite so guilty.” Whenever she found herself in doubt, she would weigh her actions against the guiding principles of the one whom she revered. “When you don’t know the rules of the game, start making them up. When you are constrained by unfavorable conditions, inject a little chaos.” It was the supplementary message that concerned Vera the most. It was difficult to follow because it was intentionally vague and mired in subjectivity. “How can I enjoy myself when you look so tormented? Are we in danger?” Vera fell silent. An experiment is taking place on a planetary scale. Across the surface of the planet, a phenomenon referred to as "Blight" is spreading. Festering regions defended by fierce creatures called “blightbeasts” taint the surface, warping the land and proliferating unceasingly. Among the sentient creatures of the planet, it is the Blightbane Guild’s responsibility to stem the tide. They endeavor to cleanse the land in a struggle of attrition, but they are losing ground. A young man named Caim has been uprooted from his former life and transported to The Shrouded Theocracy, an isolationist nation with fanatical policies. He must struggle to survive with only an unfamiliar strain of magic to aid him. There is a secret to this magic. One he knows very little about. He intends to explore just what makes this magic special. On the far border of the theocracy, a mage scientist named Inis discovers a revolutionary new way to infuse strength from defeated blightbeasts. Using herself as a test subject, this process allows her to grasp magical concepts previously thought beyond her reach. Though she tries to document any side effects that arise, something escapes her awareness. She is playing with a dangerous force that will claim her most treasured asset if she isn't careful. Everyone and everything on the planet is a part of the experiment. The experiment is a lie.
