One spring day in Adventure Bay, Zuma was taking a nap inside his pup house, when he heard something drive up to the lookout.

Ohhhh, who's that? He said while rubbing his eyes.

It was Marshall and Roader, who were just completing a mission with Ryder.

Hey Zuma! Said Marshall

Oh, hey Marshall. Zuma said

Did we disturb you? Asked Roader

Oh no. I needed to get up. Zuma responded

Ok! Roader said. You wanna go play at the pup park for a while? Asked Roader

Suwe! Zuma said as he got up.

Alright! Can we Ryder? Marshall asked.

Go ahead! Ryder said. But I'll need you and Zuma later on for soemthing very special. Ryder added

Ok! Said Marshall happily as he, Zuma, and Roader went down to the pup park.

While Zuma and Marshall were playing tag, Roader was on the merry go round.

Weeeeeeeheeeheeee! Faster! Faster! Roader cheered

Tag! You're it! Said Marshall as he runs in the other direction.

Oh yeah? Zuma says as he starts chasing Marshall.

After a while of playing, Ryder calls Marshall and Zuma.

Marshall! Zuma! I need you two. Ryder said

Ok Ryder! Both Marshall and Zuma said.

We'll see you later Woader. Said Zuma

Ok! You guys have fun with whatever you're doing. Roader says, still spinning on the merry go round.

Then Marshall and Zuma head back to the lookout while Roader stays at the pup park.

I guess I'll stay here just a little while longer. Said Roader

He played all around the pup park for 15 more minutes. Then he started to settle down a bit.

*sigh* Maybe I should head back to the lookout now. Roader thought to himself.

He began to walk to the lookout, until he went passed the merry go round. He pondered about if he should take another spin, or just head back.

I guess one more ride couldn't hurt. Roader says as he walks to the merry go round and starts spinning on it.

Yaaahooooo! He cheered happily. let's go a little faster!

And with that, he started running as fast a he could on the merry go round and it went flying in circles.

Ooohhhhhhh yeeaaaahhhhh! Hahaaaaaa! Roader exclaimed.

He was having a blast, but he was starting to feel something funny. His grip on the merry go round was coming loose.

Whoooaaaaaaa! Whoa nooooooo! Roader shouted as the merry go round tossed him off like a frisbee.

Roader went soaring through the air.

Whohohohoaaaa! I must've went too faaaaast! He shouted

Fortunately, he landed on an umbrella at Mr. Porter's Cafe, then he landed on toy car left behind by a kid and that started running out of control on the road.

Ohhh noooo! Stop! Stooooop! He yelled

Then the toy car hit a sidewalk and sent Roader flying into shop, where he tumbled into a closet, which closed, and flipped right into a metal container that locked itself upon closing. ROader was slightly unconscious from the whole ordeal.

Ohhhh maaaan. What was all that? Roader asked as he looked around his current setting. Uh ohhhh. I think I'm trapped in here. He said

Hellooo! Anyone? Can somebody hear meeeee?! He calls out but no one heard him. I'm stuck in this confined container! He said

Roader tried his best to open the container, but due to the lock, his efforts were for not.

Ohh boy. I really am stuck! How will I get out?! I'm trapped! Is there even anyone out there? I'm boxed in! LITERALLY! Roader says as he starts panicking.

To make his matters worse, Roader's claustrophobia was starting to kick in.

I'm stuck! I'm stuck! I'm stuuuuuuck! He wails. I'll never be found in here! I'll lose all my oxygen, I'll get sick from whatever could also be in here, I'll starve, I'll be parched, I'll never go home! He says frantically.

Despite his worries, the container had some small holes in it, allowing Roader to have an unlimited supply of oxygen, but he didn't notice them due to his panicking.

Meanwhile, back at the lookout, Ryder, Marshall, and Zuma were working on a certain truck.

Do you think he'll like this new feature? Asked Marshall

Of couwse he will! It will probably be his new favowite feature. Said Zuma

I'm sure he'll love it a lot. Ryder says. We just need to make sure it has all the right parts to make it work. Rocky's going to help us a little bit later. Ryder states

Ok! Marshall said with excitement. I can't to see his expression to this.

Back at the shop, inside the closet and the container, Roader was still frantic about his situation.

*pant pant pant* I feel so humid in this box of fears! Roader exclaims

My rope is getting ever shorter. When will I get out of this, or will i get out of this. I-I-I-I don't know what to do. Maybe I'm dreaming. Roader said

He shakes his body around in a vain attempt to wake himself up, but he's already awake. This panics him even more.

I'M NOT ASLEEP! He shouts. If I could ever do one thing, it would be to break this container all the way so no one like me can experience this.

Roader starts to feel a little tired from all his panicking.

Whoo! What a....*pant*......predicament I'm....*pant*...in. Roader says tiredly. I....just...want.......to........go.......home......now. He says as he falls asleep.

A little later, Roader wakes up. He's still in the container, but his frantic mode has been tuned down a notch thanks to his sleeping.

Ahhhhh. That felt good. He says before looking around himself again. On no, I'm still in this space of no space. He said. When will I ever get out? *sigh*

Roader then started to daydream. First about when he was returning to the lookout. Next he daydreamed of him along with Marshall and Zuma playing at the pup park. After that, when he was spinnig on the merry go round. Then, when he got tossed like a toy into the air. And finally, he daydreamed of when he was riding that toy car. All of his daydreams had something in common. Roader was free. Then he started to fear the worst.

*whimper* If I don't get free from this container, I'll never be a PAW Patrol team member again. He sighed sadly.

With that, Roader curled up and started to cry a little. He wasn't sure that he would be free ocne again.

About thirty minutes later, Roader was still inside the container with no joy inside his body whatsoever.

I'm........never............going..................to be..............free..............again. Roader says as starts to get tired. *yawn* I wish Aid was with me. He would at least make a great pillow. He'd make great company at most. He sighed. Then Roader dozes off again.

Suddenly, the closet door swings open. A familiar pup came in the closet looking for a container. The pup was Smokie. He saw the container and saw that it was still there. He was coming to check on it because it had his emergency tools inside. When he saw that it was fine, he was about to leave the closet until he heard someone snoring.

What was that? Smokie asked

Then he sniffs the container, and thanks to his great sense of smell, he smells irish wolfhound fur.

No way. Smokie thought. There's no way that he'd be in here.

Smokie was about to close the closet door, but ponders for a second. Maybe he is inside my emergency container. He thought to himself.

Smokie shakes the box a bit, waking up Roader.

Huh, what, where? *strecthes* Ahhh what was that? Roader questions

Roader? Is that really you? Smokie asks with disbelief.

Roader in almost an instant gets excited. Smokie?! Is that you?! It's me! Roader! I'm so glad to hear you! Roader says in relief.

How'd you get inside my emergency tool container? Smokie's voice from outside asks.

I was playing at the pup park, but I went too fast on the merry go round and lost my grip. And then after whole assortment of events occurred, I bounced into your tool container. Roader explains. I'm glad it's yours.

Me too! If it wasn't, I don't know how you woud've gotten out. Smokie says

Can you get me out, pleeeeeeease? Roader begs. I don't know how much longer I can last in here. I'm ruunig out of tiiiime! Roader says in fear.

Calm down Roader. Heheh, you sound like you've been in there for days. Smokie chuckles

It felt like days! Roader says

Heh, let's get you out of here. Said Smokie as he unlocks the container and frees Roader.

Thank you thank you thank you thank you! Roader says while shaking Smokie's paw.

Y-y-you're w-w-w-w-welc-c-c-c-come! Smokie says while being shaken by Roader.

Ahhhhhhhhh fresh air! Sunlight! The nice smell of outside! Roader says relievingly.

*giggles* Well I'm glad to have helped Roader. Smokie said

Now that I'm free, I can head back to the lookout. Roader says as he turns to the exit of the shop. Thanks again Smokie.

You're welcome! Said Smokie while smiling. Hey, why don't I give you a lift? He offers

Sure! Complied Roader. Uhh, can you go a little fast? He asked

Are you sure you won't lose your grip this time? Smokie asked jokingly.

*chuckles* I'm sure I won't. Roader says. Then he and Smokie board Smokie's steam engine.

ALLLLL ABOARD! Smokie shouts as he starts his engine and speeds his way to the lookout.

At the lookout. Rocky, who had arrived fifteen minutes ago, was just finishing up the new touches to the truck.

Aaaaand done! Rocky said as he completed the truck's modification.

Thanks a lot Rocky! Ryder said as he gives Rocky a good scratching.

Heheh! No problem Ryder. Said Rocky

I think it looks great! Marshall said

And just in time. Said Zuma as he says Smokie driving in with Roader riding his train.

Hi Smokie! Marshall greeted

Hey Marshall! Hey Ryder, Rocky and Zuma! Smokie greeted back. It seems one of your friends ended up in my emergency tool container by mistake. Smokie stated

Weally?! Zuma asks while turning to Roader.

Heheheh, yyyyep. It's kind of a long story. Kind of. Roader says while scratching the back of his head.

Well, we're just glad you're ok Roader. Said Ryder. Especially since Marshall, Zuma, Rocky, and I have got a surprise for you.

A surprise? For me? Roader asked

Yep!Here you go! Ryder says as he pulls off a sheet and reveals Roader race car-like tow truck. Roader's eyes widened in awe as he sees his truck with two new hot rod-like engines, a blue fiery color add to the crane part of his hook, and a brand new race car look on the exterior.

You....made this......for me? Roader asks while starting to smile.

That's right! Just for you! Said Ryder

Thanks you guys! Roader says happily. I love it! I love it sooo much!

Get inside dude. You'll love the design in thewe too! Said Zuma

Roader hops inside his truck, and goes into a state of pure joy when he sees his seat with a orange fire texture. The steering wheel looked like that of a race car wheel. And he gained a new feature. He can now bring out a hook in the front of his tow truck for things in the front. And, if he wanted to, he could change it back to his original design at will. Roader was happy.

Thank you guys so much for this! I really do like it a lot! Roader says

You're welcome Roader! We're glad it you like it! Marshall said

And thank you so very much Smokie. Roader says as he turns to Smokie. I wouldn't've saw this surprise if you didn't help me get out of that container.

Awww anytime Roader. Smokie said

Hey. Can I take this new ride for a spin? Roader asks Ryder

Heheh, go ahead Roader. You're such a good pup. Ryder said

Yeah, go for it Roader! Rocky said

It's yours to use. Added Marshall

And you love to go vewy fast! Zuma includes

Roader looks at Smokie who smiles. I gave you a ride, now it's time for you to give yourself one. Smokie said

Roader jumps back in his Truck and rides around the lookout a couple times, then dashes down the road.

Wooooooohooo! Oh yeeeaaahhh! I love this new ride! And I love going fast! Roader cheers happily as he continues riding in his new race car tow truck.

The End
