Rubble was exhausted, he had been busy all week helping repair the pet parlor after a major storm. It was luckily the only place hit badly, but rebuilding was not an easy task. It was all finished finally, and he was ready to rest. He looked around one last time, noting Cali sleeping nearby and Lucky being picked up by Katie.

He had Danny. He was Danny's last hope. He pulled hard and yanked Danny up. Everyone surrounded them all giving congratulations and calling Rubble a hero.

"That still bothers you, eh?" Danny suddenly said. The rest of the PAW Patrol dissappeared. After a pause, Rubble realized what was going on.

"I am so sorry Danny. I tried, I really did!" Rubble said through tears.

"I know, buddy, I know. It's okay. I understand. It couldn't... it can't be easy for you." Danny said. Then he perked up slightly. "Hey, I'm not alone here anymore!"

"Really?" Rubble asked. Danny nodded

"Hey Lulu! Come on out! Meet my friend Rubble!" Danny yelled.

"I'm coming da... uh... darn it!" A voice called back. A poodle-rottweiler mixed breed pup suddenly materialized. "Yo." She said.

"Er... hi." Rubble replied.

"Rubble, this is Lulu. Lulu, this is Rubble." Danny said.

"Welcome to the afterlife Shrimp." Lulu said.

"Actually Lulu, he is just dreaming. He isn't like us." Danny explained.

"Ah, a spirit walker. That's pretty cool." Lulu said.

"Anyone can do it if they regret something involving those who have passed. We have to want to reassure them though." Danny told her.

"Oh holy..." Lulu said, her eyes widening. "I could..."

"I don't think Rocky would like you." Rubble said jovially. "He hates bad language and I can tell you are used to using a lot of it."

"I don't give a... frick, what people think of me! Though I am usually a bit better around kids, language wise." Lulu told him.

"Heh... so I can tell." Rubble quipped. He turned back to Danny. "So what did you want to tell me this time?"

"I-I actually wanted to visit everyone and see how they were doing. I wanted to talk about all that you have been doing." Danny said nervously. "Can we go to the lookout?"

`"We actually were just at the pet parlor. The entire group was relaxing there last I knew." Rubble replied. "Well, except for Tracker, Sadie, and Aqua." At the mention of Sadie, Lulu jumped. The other two did not notice.

"So do you want to come with us to the pet parlor, Lulu?" Danny asked.

"S-Sure... hey, can you tell me 'bout the other three who won't be there on the way?" Lulu asked.

"Sure! Tracker is a Chihuahua who lives in a nearby jungle with Carlos, our leader Ryder's pen pal. We usually only see him when we have a mission in the jungle, though he has been coming in with stuff from the jungle and to just hang out more recently. Aqua is... I guess I can tell you since you are, well, dead. Aqua is a half-merpup. She only gets a mer-tail at night. During the day she looks like a Boykin Spaniel, albeit with an abnormally long tail. Then Sadie, a rottweiler, is a survival fanatic. Her cousin taught her everything she knows. Her closest friends in the group are Rocky and Zuma, who she is also dating." Rubble told her. Lulu rose an eyebrow.

"Dating? Aren't you all a bit young for that?" Lulu asked.

"I'm guessing you never fell in love?" Rubble asked.

"Kid, my family was a mess, the only people in my family that truely loved each other were my parents and me... and me and my cousin I guess.." My cousin's parents hated each other, my grandparents hated each other. Love is pretty foreign to my family." Lulu replied.

"I'm sorry to hear that." Rubble replied. He walked to the pet parlor with Danny and Lulu floating behind him.

"So who's who?" Lulu asked as she looked over the resting puppies. Katie was sitting in the corner with Lucky, who was surprisingly wide awake. Chase and Skye were resting side by side. Everest was resting her head on Marshall's back. Rocky and Zuma were sleeping rather close to each other. Rubble smiled and began explaining who each of the PAW Patrol members were.

"Those two seem rather close now." Danny said, gesturing to Rocky and Zuma.

"They've always been close. They are like brothers. Marshall and Chase are the same. If Skye and Everest weren't here they would be just as close." Rubble told him.

"These kids are adorable!" Lulu suddenly said.

"Could you keep it down?" A voice Rubble didn't recognize suddenly said. He spun around to the source.

"Cali!?" He called. Indeed, the source of the voice was Cali. Cali seemed just as surprised.

"Since when could you understand me?" Cali replied. She looked around and noticed another oddity. "And why are there two of you?" She continued looking at Rubble's sleeping form.

"This is a dream." Danny explained.

"Oh hey Danny." Cali replied. She immediately did a double take. "Danny? The heck? How!?"

"This is the third dream I've had like this. It is kind of weird seeing yourself sleeping the first time. Look behind you Cali." Rubble said.

"Hmm?" Cali began as she turned around. Upon seeing her own body, she jumped three feet in the air. Rubble laughed. Cali gave him an angry look that quickly softened before she gave a smile.

"Okay, yeah I admit, that was kinda funny." She conceded.

"Ahem... can we continue what were talking about before the cat spoke?" Lulu suddenly said.

"Sure. Who should I start with?" Rubble asked.

"Can you start with that Zuma kid?" Lulu asked.

"The water freak?" Cali asked. Lulu ignored her and looked at Rubble expectantly.

"Yeah, he enjoys the water, contrary to Rocky who can't stand the feeling of wet fur. He is loyal and devoted to his work, while also being carefree and laidback. After Sadie saved Zuma in the desert he fell in love with her. I am not quite sure when she began returning his feelings but it eventually happened. Zuma mentioned to me that she began to doubt it was anything more than a good friendship and so he started showing so much more affection. It was so adorable." Rubble began. He then noticed everyone staring at him in confusion. "Ahem, anyways. They are nearly inseparable. Only reason Sadie doesn't live with us at the lookout is because she is so used to living in a fight to survive state that she decided to simply live at the bottom of the mountain."

"What is he afraid of?" Lulu asked. "You keep mentioning Rocky fear and it only seems fair."

"Odd question. Unfortunately he fears ghosts, so he probably will be scared of my story." Rubble told her.

"Ok, how about Rocky next? What's his story?" Lulu asked. She seemed to be more relaxed. Rubble was surprised he hadn't noticed how tense she was. When did she become tense?

"Rocky is our eco pup and our leader's inventing partner. He didn't like Sadie at first because of her strong language and the nickname she gave him, Mutt. After Ryder sent him to stay with Sadie, something happened involving a bear that caused them to talk. They appearently talked about Sadie's cousin who was also a mutt, and recently was found and buried in town. As I mentioned he fears being wet." Rubble explained.

"Um... you are going to have to wrap this up. Katie's calling you pups." Cali suddenly piped up.

"What? No! I haven't explained anything about the other four!" Rubble said.

"I'll tell her what I can, based on what you told me last time." Danny said.

"It's okay... You have given me information that will help me relax." Lulu told him. "Fare..."

Rubble woke at that moment. He looked around as the other pups began to awaken.

"Morning pups! Thank you so much for helping rebuild!" Katie called.

"I was talking with Danny..." Rubble said, visably saddened. Katie's eyes widened.

"I am so sorry Rubble!" Katie replied, clearly upset.

"Don't be, there is no way you could have known." Rubble told her. Then he perked up. "He has a new friend!"

"Oh? Who would that be?" Katie asked.

"A pup named Lulu. She's a poodle-rottweiler mix. She seemed oddly curious about Sadie for some reason." Rubble told her. He noticed Zuma and Rocky look at each other.

"Did she ask about anyone else?" Rocky asked.

"Yeah actually. She first asked me about the three that weren't here and then she asked about you two, why?" Rubble replied. The two exchanged side glances.

"N-No weason in pawticular." Zuma said quickly. "Though when you get the chance, you should tell Sadie about this, Wubble."

"Ok, I'll do that." Rubble replied.
