Ryder and the Paw Patrol stared in slack jawed amazement. They were looking at pictures of what had happened to their vehicles after The Puppeteer's (or was it Presto's) minions had taken them for a joyride. Yes, some damage they could understand. Maybe a crash or two as they didn't care about what happened to the vehicles in the end. But not the absolute pandemonium that followed. Somehow every single vehicle was in some unique form of complete disaster that rendered them unusable. So it was with a strange sense of morbid curiosity that they opened the summaries of the reports given by helpful citizens of Adventure Bay to see if they could figure out how the hell such a thing could have happened.
Ryder's ATV
Taken by the Puppeteer along with the pup-pad. Knocked over everything she passed. Somehow driven in water mode all the way to the harbour, skids snapped off because of this. Managed to turn it back into land mode right in time to hit the water. Rescued by dragon before she got wet, the ATV is now short circuited at the bottom of the bay.
"Up until that point I thought dragons didn't exist in real life."
"Yeah, me too."
"Same here."
Chase's police truck
Currently dangling under a set of high voltage, highly suspended, powerlines. Someone probably tried to perform an epic grappling swing with the winch. It didn't work. The only reason it hasn't hit the ground is that the cable isn't long enough. The electricity has fried both the engine and the motor and the wires are so tangled together it would probably be easier to just cut the whole knot.
"We're going to have to stage a blackout in order to get that down aren't we?"
"Yup, unless we want to get electrocuted."
"What I'm concerned about is how the cable hasn't snapped yet."
Marshal's fire truck
'Merely' in a hole. Hole is perfect size just to fit the truck with no room either front, back or to the sides. Ladder reaches halfway to the top of the hole. Barely. How they managed to get past the concrete barriers into the construction site is anyone's guess.
"Why was there a hole that deep in the construction site to begin with?"
"Not sure, maybe they were digging a well?"
Skye's helicopter
Flew around till it ran out of fuel. The minions decided that the proper course of action was to shed weight. By disassembling it in mid-air and throwing the parts overboard. Currently scattered in small pieces over several miles of countryside. The propeller is the only piece that made it to the a landing pad.
"We're lucky that they didn't hit anything important with the pieces."
"That would have made finding them easier though."
"True"
Rocky's recycle truck
Was last seen smashing into the rubbish dump while in tugboat form, destabilising all the junk stacks as it went through. Currently suspected to be buried somewhere under all the piles of rubbish.
"Can't recycle while the truck is missing so everything is dumped into the trash. Can't collect rubbish while the truck is still buried, as that would make the problem worse. This is going to get annoying fast."
Rubble's bulldozer
Discovered upside down on top of seal island's lighthouse. In a room that has no entrances or exits large enough to fit it. The fact that the vehicle even fits in the room itself could be considered a miracle.
"How did they even get it in there?"
"Never mind that, how did manage to drive it there in the first place? It's an island!"
Zuma's hovercraft
Found impaled on the top of one of the supports for the bridge over the bay. The air cushion has been punctured but the fans on the back are still on, all that does is make the vehicle spin around the pole like some sort of Christmas ornament.
"They are not wrong. I does look like a Christmas ornament."
"It's also doing more damage to the vehicle, I would like it to stop."
Paw patroller
Located not far from the garage, literally wrapped around a tree like a pretzel. All 18 of it's wheels are missing as is the engine and various internal components. All signs indicate that they kept going in the direction of travel when the rest of the vehicle did not. No clue as to where they all are currently as the direction of travel was straight towards a cliff.
"Okay, how fast were they going when they hit the tree? And how is the tree still standing?"
"I've also checked, we don't have any spare tyres anymore, they've disappeared."
Everest's snowmobile
Easy to find, near impossible to get out. Trapped in the middle of an oversized iceberg, the size of a large building. Iceburg is currently tethered to the docks but projections indicate that it will be weeks at minimum before the ice melts enough for us to extract it. Currently doubling as a tourist attraction and source of free ice for the town.
"Does anyone have any idea how they managed to get it inside an iceberg? Or where they managed to get an iceberg in the first place?"
"Dunno, magic?"
"Sounds as good an answer as any."
Air patroller
Crashed in Foggy Bottom after collecting every fine and airspace violation known to the area multiple times, and necessitating the invention of more than a few new ones along the way. Surprisingly intact, only needing maintenance, fuel and some spare parts. Unfortunately Mayor Vernon Humdinger and the Kitten Catastrophe Crew found it first. It is now impounded and trapped in bureaucratic limbo. The red tape and paperwork to solve this issue fills several rooms.
"He's insisting that we pay for all the fines and repairs as well before we get it back isn't he?"
"Yep."
Tracker's jeep
Went missing somewhere deep in the densest part of the jungle. The tracker has pinpointed it's location down to a square mile, but damage to the tracker means that a grid search must be performed. Due to the poor visibility and difficulty traversing the terrain this is predicted to take a while.
"Grid Search?"
"It's like trying to find the barbecue sauce by carefully checking each cupboard in the kitchen individually."
"Also, isn't Tracker in Bolivia right now?"
"He is, I'm not sure how his update report got mixed in there."
"I think the lack of sleep is getting to us."
. (Unless Presto is the one holding our wand)
