Opening: 🎵Pawlloon, Pawlloon! Bouncing into Action!🎵 🎵Whenever there's trouble, and things are looking rough🎵 🎵Ryder and the inflati-pups will save the day with a puff!🎵 🎵Chase, Marshall, Skye, Rocky, Rubble, Zuma, Balloona X, Formula/Drift!🎵 🎵No job's too big, these pups aren't small!🎵 🎵Pawlloon Patrol, let's have a ball!🎵 🎵We're on a roll, Pawlloon!🎵 🎵Pawlloon Patrol!🎵 ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ *Outside near the Lookout, the black labrahuahua was busy working on the final touches to a machine under a tarp while the rest of the team were inside waiting for his signal.* Rubble: How long until he said he was gonna be finished? Balloona X: Maybe 5 minutes. Give or take? Chase: Is this the project he's been working on for a while that he's clued you in on? Balloona X: Yes it is and no, I'm not telling you Skye: C'mon Loony... what about the gal pack we made? Secrets aren't any fun. Balloona X: You pups are just gonna have to wait. There's nothing you can do to get me to talk Marshall: How about a box of treats? Balloona X: Nope Rubble: Two boxes? Balloona X: Still no Ryder: You pups will just have to wait patiently for it. Pups: Aww... Ok, Ryder. Balloona X: Thank you Ryder Ryder: Of course. It's only right that we wait and be surprised. *Some time has passed as everyone, except for Balloona, all lied around lazily and bored* Zuma: Is he set yet? Getting a bit bored, dude... Balloona X: I'll check on him Rocky: Ok then. Balloona X: Ryder, keep your eyes on them, just in case Ryder: Don't worry about a thing, Balloona X. *Balloona then went outside to meet up with her lab who was still working under the tarp* Balloona X: Uh... Formy? Formula: What is it Loony? Balloona X: The pups are getting a little bored waiting around. How long until it's finished? Formula: It's just about done. I just need to do a quick test before the real deal. *He had a chameleon nearby, setting it under a scanner.* Go tell them it's about set. Balloona X: Ok. *Balloona left her pup to meet with the others. She arrived back inside to see that they all quickly stood up in excitement* Chase: Ready? Balloona X: Just about. He needs another minute though. Pups: Ugh... Balloona X: He's doing a test to make sure it works fully. Just wait, please Rubble: Final offer... five boxes of treats for a small hint on this? Chase: Come on! You can't keep us all here, the suspense is driving us crazy! Rubble: There's six of us and one of her, so... *they all get up and walk in front of her* Balloona X: Don't do this pups. Marshall: What're you gonna do to stop us? Balloona X: You pups really forgot about me and what I can do, huh? Skye: Of course not, but you can't stop us all at once. Balloona X: Is this what you all think? *She look at Ryder* Ryder, please go upstairs so you don't end up like these pups Ryder: Oh boy... *He went up the stairs as the six pups leapt toward the collie. Balloona quickly inflated herself to block the doorway, as the pups landed on her belly and bounced off her a bit. Balloona continued to inflate herself then leaned forward to pin them all down with her bloated body as their head and front paws sticking out from under her* Balloona X: I tried to warn you pups... now I have to keep you pups pinned down until Formula is done Pups: Ugh... *After another minute or two, the pups tags lit up.* Formula: G'day team, head to the backyard. I'm ready for ya to show a marvel of engineering! Balloona X: We'll be right there in a sec, Formy Pups: Yes! Finally! Balloona X: Well, let me get you pups freed. *She deflate back down to her normal shape and get off the pups* There you go Chase: Great! Now let's see what he was working on. *Ryder then arrived downstairs with some excitement* Ryder: I just got the call from Formula... Let's go see. Balloona X: Let’s roll, pups! *She went out eagerly as the other pups and Ryder followed her. They all arrived outside to see a large tarp over something, but no Formula in sight* Formy? Where are you? Chase: Hang on… *He sniffed around a bit.* He’s still here, but I can’t tell where. Formula: Oh good, you all arrived. *Everyone was a bit surprised from hearing him* Ryder: Uh... Formula? Rubble: I can hear him, but I can't see him... Balloona X: Formy, this is not funny, show yourself please!? Formula: Gladly sweetie. *From in front of the collie, Formula materialized from thin air.* Boo. Balloona X: Aah! *Balloona was so surprised, she quickly inflated to a large size and knocked everyone away a bit* Oops, sorry guys Formula: Hehehehe Ryder: Formula, what was that about? Formula: Heh, sorry for the scare, but I had to test it out. Don’t get mad… *His fur then turned to a bright shade of red with some orange, like a fire style.* You do kind of explode at points Loony. Balloona X: Huh? Ryder: How are you doing that? Formula: Quite simple, thanks to my latest invention. *He went over to the tarp.* Behold... *Formula then grabbed the tarp with his mouth as he pulled it off to reveal his invention. It was a large machine with a computer screen and keyboard to the side on a round platform with a dish over it. The everyone looked so surprised and amazed at it* All: Whoa! Balloona X: So this is what you’ve told me about before?! Formula: Yep, this is my Duplicability 2000 Chase: So… it duplicates abilities. Formula: Precisely, but before I do the main demonstration… let me get rid of my chameleon abilities. Marshall: Does this also remove the abilities? Formula: This machine does do that, but in the event of it malfunctioning or being broken, I made a spare device. *He pull out what look like a small blaster* Rubble: What's that? Formula: This is my Removability Chase: Nice. Formula: Yeah, I just need someone to aim it at me though... Balloona X: I’ll do it. Formula: Just be careful, Loony Balloona X: Don't worry, I got this... Formula: Ok then… *Balloona then deflated herself to her normal size as Formula passed her the blaster and aimed it carefully at him. She pulled the trigger and Formula was then shot with a ray of light as an energy around him dissipated* Chase: Did it work? Formula: Yes. Any affect that did happen is erased once the ability is removed, so now I’m back to my usual black and gray furred self. Anyway, I build this machine for you 6 pups Pups: For us?! Formula: Mmhm. I made it for you six primarily to feel some extra power, and I may have the one to use… *He smirked, his eyes slowly looking to the bloated collie.* Skye: Wait, you mean... *she wagged her tail for excitement* Formula: Yup... Skye: No way! Rocky: This will be cool Zuma: We'll finally gonna feel how you two felt being a big balloon pup Rubble: Without the suit's help Skye: Yay! We get to have our fun Chase! *She nuzzled close to her German Shepherd* Chase: Hehehe yea! Marshall: And just wait until Everest sees me all big and round! Formula: Well first, I need to scan Balloona X on her DNA for her inflation ability and lock the ability in the machine Balloona X: Go ahead then. Scan me up, Formy *Balloona then walked up to the platform as Formula went to the computer to activate the scanning sequence* Formula: This might tickle a bit. *After entering the code. The dish lit up a bit as a series of light rings were being emitted downward to Balloona. The machine took a while before the scanning was completed as her ability was shown on the screen* And... There we go. Now to lock the DNA in the machine, so it can't be deleted at all and be used multiple times Balloona X: Multiple times? Formula: Yeah. Marshall: You can do that? Can I see?! Formula: I mean… I guess? *He started plugging in the commands into the computer.* The reason why I need to lock the DNA in because once it hit its target, the DNA ability disappears from the machine. But with the lock on, the ability stays in the machine Marshall: That sounds cool. *Marshall walked close to get a better look as Formula continued to plug in the command* Formula: But I have to do this one pup at a time, blasting more than one pup in one shot might overload the Duplicability 2000 software Balloona X: Hopefully you can fix that… Formula: For now, all pups line up and be ready to be blasted one by one *All the pups then got into a line, with Marshall in the front* Balloona X: This will be a great time! Formula: Now hold still, pups Marshall: *whispering while moving a bit restlessly* Can't wait. Can't wait! *Formula got the dish ready, but Marshall jumped onto the platform.* Formula: Marshall, calm down, just wait Marshall: I'm sorry, but this is just too exciting. I can't hold... *He hopped on the platform, causing the dish to swing down and knock the dalmatian into the other five, firing a blast to them all.* Formula: Oh no! *The pups all felt ok from the blast, but the machine had an overload warning on the screen* Formula: Oh my gears, heads up! *He went to one of the trees for cover.* I suggest you pups... RUN!!! *Everyone got up and ran for cover behind some trees as the machine began to spark out for a bit. The machine then heated up for a while before it exploded, leaving behind a smoke cloud in its wake.* Chase: I think we are. *Notices the metallic heap where the machine used to be* But I can't say the same for the Duplicability 2000. Marshall: Formula... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to mess this up... *The mechanical pup remained silent, walking over to the pieces.* Formula: It’s only a third of the machine… the rest is missing. Balloona X: Missing?! Formula: The dish and the computer are missing… the blast must’ve sent them up and away. The pieces are built tough and they snap back together, but the drawback is each piece can contain the energy of the ability of it’s locked. Chase: So you can rebuild it by finding the pieces? Formula: Exactly. But we don't know where the pieces are, so who knows how long that'll take... Skye: Question… what happens if someone who doesn’t have the ability touches a part? Formula: They gain the ability, but I made sure certain powers only work for animals… Balloona’s was one of them. But there is a 50/50 chance that some animals find any pieces Skye: But did the machine work? I don't feel different Formula: Probably delayed… *He went into the tree, pulling on a branch as the floor started lowering like an elevator.* Give me a minute. Balloona X: So this is where your secret base is? Chase: You didn't know about this? Balloona X: Did you? Chase: No... Balloona X: Let me follow him then. *After the elevator came back up without Formula, the collie squeezed into the opening, pulling on the branch to activate the elevator.* Whoa! *Down in the underground lab, Formula was looking over a computer.* Formula: Hmm. Just gotta figure this out... Balloona X: So this is where you have been hiding before, huh? Good to know. Formula: *he look behind him and see Balloona X* Loony! Ugh… no time to worry about that. I made this base after I moved in. It’s where I put the old leftover stuff from the workshop, remember? *Balloona takes a look around to see that the interior looked like Formula's old workshop.* Balloona X: Oh yeah. I see it now. So, why did you come down here now? Formula: I’m doing calculations to figure out how long till the pups gain their abilities and when and where the pieces to the machine will land. That, and… I may’ve prepped ahead of time for this incident. Balloona X: Really?! Wow! Chase: So what did you find out? *Balloona and Formula turned to see that the pups were also in the bunker* Balloona X: How did you pups get here? Rocky: We found the entrance through the garage. Formula: Oh boy, this isn't good. If my hunch is right, those powers should kick in... now. Balloona X: Wait what? *Formula pointed to the six after bobbing his head after a three count as they all felt odd.* Marshall: Oh... my belly's feeling odd right now. Skye: Same too... oh... Rubble: It's not snack-o-clock, yet I feel full. Rocky: You haven't eaten yet. Zuma: It feels like something put a oxygen tank in my belly and set it to high Chase: Formula... why do we all feel so full?! Formula: That's the first phase. I would rather not have you balloon up here though, since it's a bit... smaller, but there's no real time to move you, so... Balloona X: So what? Formula: Brace yourself. Balloona X: Oh dear... *The two pups saw their six teammates start to swell up before their eyes.* Chase: We're swelling up here! Marshall: But we're not controlling it! Formula: This usually happens. Sort of automatic right now... *He tried adjusting, being stuck between the six.* Balloona X: *She being pin between 2 of her pup member, she trying to get out* Whoa! I thought pinning you guys were funny at first, but now it's harder to move than it looks... Formula: Welcome to every time you try and pin me... Balloona X: Oh... Zuma: How do we stop this? Skye: How big are we even going to get from this?! Rocky: It's hard to move like this now! Formula: Happens... every... time... *He tried to escape, but he was pressed up against the center of all six.* Balloona X: Formy... what do we do? You got to have a plan for this, right? Formula: S-Sort of... *He inhaled, making himself inflate against the six to the point they pressed against the walls, forcing the air out of them and deflating back down.* There we go. Had to withdraw the pressure from within at first. Balloona X: Is everypup ok? Chase: I think so... *He gently looked down, softly rubbing his belly.* That did feel very weird and pressured though, kind of sore in a way. Balloona X: I guess you pups need some practice on your new abilities for your body to get used to the pressure Skye: That did kinda hurt. Formula: After so many inflation bits though, the pain will literally be nothing. *He deflated back down, heading back to the computer as the others looked at him.* Balloona X: But to me, my inflation just feels different, like I did get used to it already Formula: Hmm... still need to figure that out. Marshall: Formula... what do we do though without your main device? Formula: I still have my spare, but... *He held it up, showing a chunk of the other device lodged into it.* I need to repair it, so you six are stuck like us for a bit. Balloona X: Maybe I can teach you pups on how to control your ability and handle the pressure while Formula repairs his device Formula: Removability ray. Balloona X: But still, it is fair I teach you pups how to use your new abilities before you decide to go back to normal. It'd be fun to have more Inflatable pups beside just me and Formula/Drift Zuma: What would folks call us? The Pawlloon Patrol or something? Balloona X: Oh yeah, Pawlloon Patrol! *Formula perked up hearing that one, looking back at the team.* Formula: So if they stick with it, I'll have to get to work on the suits... or have I? Balloona X: Just trust me, pups. If I can teach Formula to have fun and do different inflation ways for him, I can teach you pups to handle your inflation ability Rubble: Sounds great. Let's get to it! Skye: Could be fun honestly. Rocky: Would be more fun than just using our suit to inflate all the time. Chase: If Skye's in, I'm in. Marshall: My tumble that got us like this, I'll at least roll with it. Zuma: Sounds like a blast. Balloona X: It's settled then! Let's get our puff up training started! Pups: Yay! Formula: Well, while you're training... I've got work to do. Balloona X: Actually... I think you can work on that when you're not being used as a test subject. Formula: Excuse me?! Balloona X: Come on Formy. You know I can't train them without my pup Formula: But... my reversing ray... Balloona X: You will deal with that later now Formula: Can't I just... Skye: To be fair, your device did cause this, so you do owe us all. Chase: It's the least you can do for us... Formula: Ugh... fine. Remind me later to modify this place though for the whole Pawlloon Patrol center later then... Balloona X: Trust me, once we trained these pups on their ability, then you can get back to work, I promise Formula: Fine... *He grabbed the device and a few tools, going to a lever on the opposite side, dropping down the floor from the garage like a ramp.* Let's go you seven. Pups: Alright! *They all then left the bunker through the garage entrance and went back to the yard* Ryder: There you pups are! After the blast, I was worried something happened, but at least you're all alright. Balloona X: They will be after Formy and I train them Ryder: For what? Balloona X: If you want, you can watch... Ryder: Uh... sure. Can't hurt to know. Balloona X: Let's go everyone! Pups: Right! *Balloona and Formula then went to the open area as Ryder and the other pups sat down* Chase: So, what's first? Balloona X: First thing to do for your training is to do some breathing inflation practice Ryder: Wait... What? Balloona X: Just deeply and slowly inhale. Formula: Like so... *He inhaled slowly, yet deeply, swelling his belly a bit.* Just start with a small belly first, pups Pups: Ok. *They let out a small exhale in preparation. They then began to inhale slowly and deeply, and soon enough began to swell up a bit in the belly. Ryder was both surprised and amazed at what he was witnessing* Balloona X: Now, exhale the air out of you *Formula exhaled first to show, having his belly return to normal as the six followed shortly after.* Formula: Now, try continue inhaling and exhaling more air in you. The more you inhale, the bigger you got for your belly to handle more Pups: Alright. *The pups then continued their exercise and each time they inhaled, they would have their bellies swell up a bit larger. Ryder was very surprised at the development* Ryder: Well, I'm impressed a bit. Balloona X: With them like this, it'll be a lot more fun around here. Ryder: Indeed. *He looked over, seeing Skye with her eyes closed and a smile on her face, still inhaling.* Uh... Skye? *Skye wasn't listening as she continued to inhale.* Chase: Skye?! Formula: Did she go to her happy place or something? Chase: I think so! Skye, snap out of it! Skye: Huh? *She stopped inhaling and opened her eyes as she then noticed her size* Oops, hehehe... I must have gotten a little distracted. Formula: Are you feeling ok, Skye? Skye: Just "swell" is all, hehe. Chase: You seemed a bit out of it and didn't stop inhaling. What were you thinking about? Skye: *blushes* Well... Uh... Formula: Anyway... deflate back down so we can continue the lessons. Skye: Oh right... *Skye then began to exhale and revert to her normal size* You know, that was so relaxing Balloona X: Why do you think I enjoy doing it with Formy? Formula: Uhh... *He blushed a bit, clearing his throat.* Moving on to the next lesson... Balloona X: Water retention! *She had a garden hose ready nearby.* Hope you pups are thirsty. Zuma: So, how are we doing this? Balloona X: You decide how much water you can drink and can handle the pressure in you as big water balloon pups Formula: Does this require a test from me though? Balloona X: I'll do this one, it's fair we take turn Formula: Thank you. Can do some work. *He went over to the side, working on the ray as Balloona X looked at the team.* Balloona X: Watch me and see how much I can handle so far with water Rocky: Wonder how big she'll get... *The water began to flow into Balloona and slosh around a bit. She soon was swelling up a bit from the amount already inside her as her belly was getting rounder and was touching the ground, holding her up as her paws soon were being lifted up from the ground* Zuma: I bet it'll be huge... Skye: One can hope... *She watched on, smiling calmly with a wag in her tail. Balloona's paws soon began to sink in from the amount of swelling she was going through and was about twice the size of the pup houses and still going* Zuma: Should we help her stop? Marshall: I think it's to test how much she can hold... maybe wait a bit longer till she gives a signal? Chase: Or when she spit the hose out Skye: Probably the case... *She giggled a bit. Balloona's head and paws soon began to sink further into her as her body began to move around like a water bed. She was soon half the size of the Lookout Tower when the hose was spat out of her mouth.* Chase: Wow, impressive! Balloona X: Yep, I could go up bigger, but I don't want to push my water pressure too much to my bladder zone. Plus, I like you pups to try next Rocky: Well, I might have to pass on this. Water and I don't get along... Balloona X: Alright then... Who else wants to go next? *The other pups raised their paws eagerly.* Ryder: Ya sure you don't want to do this Rocky? Rocky: Positive. I'm not running a risk of water getting onto me! *He wasn't fully aware of Chase sneaking behind him, plugging the hose into his mouth.* Chase: Sorry Rocky, but if we have to be ready for any scenario like this. Rocky: *muffled* Oh come on! Chase: Sorry... *He joined the others as the water continued to flow down the hose.* Balloona X: Just spit out the hose when you reach your point, so you can feel the water inside you to relax your belly more *Rocky didn't hesitate, spitting out the hose after his belly looked about the size of a basketball.* Rocky: There, am I done now? Rubble: Come on Rocky, we know you can do better than that. Rocky: *sigh* Fine, I'll try more... Balloona X: Good pup. Rocky: Ugh... *He bit down on the hose, resuming his drink. Soon Rocky's body become more rounded as his paws began to sink in a bit as he was soon almost twice the size of their pup houses before he spat the hose out* Balloona X: Was that so hard? How do you feel? Or better yet.... *she push Rocky's body to make the water move a lot* can you feel the water relaxing your body? Rocky: Take a guess... Balloona X: Come on Rocky, we know you hate water, but you didn't get wet at all. Only filled up by water Rocky: Yeah I suppose. Chase: Our turn next... *The pups then went one at a time as each of them expanded to large sizes with their paws sunk in, and some with their head in a bit. They all were roughly the same size as Rocky. Skye was the last one and was very eager and kept hopping in shear joy to go next* Balloona X: Alright Skye, you're up... Skye: Finally! I mean... *She bit on the hose, beginning to drink away.* Balloona X: Just don't lose your focus, Skye Skye: *Muffled* Ok. *Skye began to swell up a bit from the steady flow of water. Her paws and head sunk in a bit as she reached the sizes of the other pups, but she didn't spit the hose out* Chase: Skye? You uh... are getting bigger than us five. *Skye let out a slight muffled giggle as she continued to swell up more, almost reaching about half of Balloona's size* Balloona X: Skye? Formula: There a problem guys? *He walked over to the group, bumping into the swelling blonde pup.* Huh? Balloona X: Skye's having her fantasy again Formula: Hang on... *He walked over to the valve, turning it off as he walked back.* There we go... Balloona X: Oh right... Ryder: That probably would've helped. Formula: Mmhm. Skye? Snap out of it, girl *Skye shook her head, looking around as she let the hose fall out.* Skye: Uh... something up? Why'd the water stop? Balloona X: You were in your fantasy zone... again Skye: Of course not. Balloona X: Then why are you bigger than the other pups? Skye: It was supposed to be a test of how much we could handle, right? Balloona X: Oh... right... Skye: Yeah... Formula: Hmm... if you say so, but I'm keeping an eye on you on the next few. Ryder: But I guess her body is starting to handle the pressure Balloona X: But how can that be? Skye: I honestly don't know... It just feels right to me for some reason... Formula: Hmm... give me a minute actually. Just try to relax for awhile since you pups have water filled bodies *He went back to the tree, going back down to the bunker.* Balloona X: Well, we got a bit. Better enjoy the sensation though. Just don't do it too much, we don't want some pup to have some accidents Skye: I'm already enjoying it. *she moved a bit as her body made small ripples around her* Hehehehe, feels fun really... Balloona X: Yep Marshall: You ever had Formula lay on you when you were a water balloon? Balloona X: I've thought of it, but no. Skye: I wouldn't mind it, if it was Chase. Chase: Well that will wait until next time since I have a water filled body here Balloona X: We'll have to see. *Her ears twitched as Formula came back up with a helmet with a screen on it.* Formula, isn't that the do-dad for keeping track of my behavior? Formula: Yes it is Balloona X: Why do you have that on? Formula: This is to monitor Skye's inner thoughts during the tests, just to better understand why she doesn't feel the pressure. Balloona X: Oh I see Skye: Uh... if you say so. *She laughed a bit nervous, the mechanical pup coming over to her and putting the helmet on her.* Formula: There we go... what's next on the testing though? Balloona X: First, let get the water out... I have 3 options for you pups... you can either spit all the water out, I use my special needle to drain it, or well... you know Marshall: I'll try spitting it out. Could be useful if I need a lot of water in for a fire. Rocky: I don't want the back splash of splitting it out... I'll take the needle, please. Skye: I'll do... *then she heard her stomach bubbling abit* Ohhhh... Chase: Something wrong? Balloona X: I think her water manage to push toward to her bladder zone... Skye: Oh no... Formula: Be glad I come prepared. *He pulled out the cube from before.* Lucky I have a portable pup bathroom in here, just in case I have too much water in my system *Formula had a large tent appear from the cube and set up near a large area.* Skye: Thanks! *After she entered into the bathroom, a transition with her tag showed her back outside, normal again with Chase as well.* Ahhh much better now Formula: Alright, and we got the rest of you normal again... *The other pups were back to their normal sizes, while Rocky was still feeling a bit weird from the experience* Time for the next lesson. Balloona X: Mmhm, let me try to recall… Formula: Let's try Helium pressure, since I need more data on how Skye managed to handle her pressure more than the others Skye: Wait, really? *Her tail wagged a bit in excitement as Formula nodded.* Balloona X: Great! But don't we need rope? Ryder: I'll get some here *Ryder then left the group to go to the garage* Balloona X: So you pups ready to be helium filled? Marshall: Uh... kind of? Balloona X: Don't worry Marshall, you all will be tied down so you won't float around Marshall: Good... you know how I feel about flying. Skye: So where is the helium tank? Formula: I'm on it *Formula had his cube glow, dispensing six tanks that were the corresponding colors of the other pups.* Skye: Wait... We each get one? Formula: Yeah, I figured it would help each of you if we worked it out at the same time. Balloona X: That way, when you each had enough, just turn off your tank while the others continue. Now we just need Ryder with the ropes before we begin Formula: Mmhm. *He laid back, continuing to work on the device repairs. Some time passed as Ryder returned, carrying several pieces of rope with him* Ryder: I got the rope. You ready for the test? Pups: Yea! Formula: Let's get them set up then. *A transition of the usual emblem showed all the pups were tied around their paws as the other ends were staked to the ground tight. Their individual tanks were placed infront of them as Balloona, Formula, and Ryder were at the ready* Ryder: Alright, all tied down. Balloona X: You six ready? Formula: If so, bite the hoses. *all six pups bite on their hose* Formula: Alright then. *bark* Tanks on! *The tanks then turned on as they each released a steady flow of helium into the pups. They began to swell up a bit and soon found themselves starting to float off the ground slightly* Just give a sign when you're done. *He went over to Skye, keeping an eye on the screen on her helmet. They continued to inflate as their paws soon began to sink in a bit. Skye seemed to enjoy this experience and let out a muffled high pitched giggle with her tail wagging a lot* Hmmmm... Balloona X: What's up Formy? What's the screen show? Formula: It looks like... a pink world of ours. Balloona X: Pink world? Formula: Yes. With her and Chase having some puffy fun it looks like... this explains her behavior during these tests. Balloona X: She must really like this... *As the test continued, Chase tried a muffled speak, and flapping his paws, which got the attention of both pups* Formula: Huh? Something up Chase? *Chase tried his best to move his head in a way that pointed to his tank* Balloona X: I think he want to stop now? Formula: Hang on. *barks* Blue tank off. *Chase's tank then shut off, leaving him about twice the size of the pup houses* Balloona X: You good Chase? Just spit the hose off, your Helium can stay inside as long you don't exhale forcefully *The shepherd nodded, opening his mouth as the hose fell out.* Formula: How do you feel, Chase? Chase: *high pitched* I feel fine. A little strange, but the good strange. Formula: Not too tight? Chase: *high pitched* A little actually... Balloona X: Hmmm I think I might know why Skye can handle her pressure and the others can't? Formula: That’s my hunch. With Skye in her happy zone, it’s like a meditative state, tuning out any outside noise or feeling, hence why she’s not feeling any pressure or limit. Balloona X: And even when she's not in her happy zone, her ability is still linked to it and allowing her to handle her pressure more easier Chase: *high pitched* Wow. That's really something. Balloona X: Maybe if we can help the other pups to link their own happy zones or even what their heart mostly desires, then they could handle their own pressure Formula: Indeed, but I’m still shocked the other four are still going though, even without that stuff. Balloona X: Skye, I think you've been trained enough, you mastered your ability *Skye let out a muffled high pitched sigh when she heard that. Rocky and Rubble then signaled Formula and Balloona in a calm, but frantic manner* Formula: Oop, two more are out. *barks* Green and yellow tanks off. *Both tanks then turned off, leaving both pups about three times as large as their pup houses. Rocky and Rubble then opened their mouths and let the hoses drop out.* Rubble: *high pitched* Well, this is something. Rocky: *high pitched* I know I was used to more before, but I didn't want to overdo it. *The other pups looked at Rocky in a confused manner* What? Balloona X: I think you’ve seen what Formy and I go through, this just scrapes the surface. Chase: *high pitched* Btw are you gonna turn off Skye's tank since she's done with her training? Formula: I’ll let it be her treat for now. But all that's left is Zuma and Marshall Ryder: I’m really amazed they are adapting to these powers so easily. Formula: Heh, I’m pretty sure once Everest sees Marshall, she’ll have a field day. *He walked over, looking at the spotty balloon.* Sound ideal for ya, Marsh? *Marshall began to blush a bit from the thought of that. Soon enough, Zuma signaled for his tank next* Balloona X: We got another one. Formula, Zuma reach his point now Formula: Got it. *barks* Orange tank off. *The tank then turned off as Zuma was left slightly bigger than Rocky and Rubble. Zuma then opened his mouth to let the hose drop out* Zuma: *high pitched* I feel like a blimp, and it's cool. *Everyone turned their attention to Skye and Marshall as they both continued to inflate, but they both seemed to be lost in thought and didn't mind the continued inflation* Balloona X: I guess you helped Marshall to link to his heart desire, Formula Formula: I guess I did. Balloona X: Two pups down, four to go. Marshall, you're done with your training Formula: Yep. I'll just let them enjoy the feeling, best not to snap them out right now, huh? Balloona X: Yep. Ryder, mind keeping your eyes on both Skye and Marshall while we do the others? Ryder: Sure thing. What's the next test though for the other four? Formula: Well, I have a plan. Two of you will go with me to the water maneuver test, while the other two will go with Loony to do the different parts. Rocky: *high pitched* I'll go with Loony! Balloona X: Ok then, who else? Chase: *high pitched* I'd like to go. Sounds interesting. Formula: Looks like Rubble and Zuma are with me then Balloona X: Seems that way, good luck. Formula: Thanks. *He grabbed the two ropes for his puploons, but found he was floating up due to their size and weightlessness.* Whoop! Not good! Balloona X: Inflate Formula to gain weight Formula: Oh, duh. *He shook his head, inflating on cue to the size of a puphouse, but easily weighing the two down, bouncing between the two entranced pups. Skye and Marshall seemed unphased for a moment and continued on in their session.* Balloona X: You guys ok? Formula: Yeah, just forgot about that for a moment. Rubble: *high pitched* I'm fine. Zuma: *high pitched* I'm good. Ryder: Seems Marshall and Skye didn't even notice. They must be really immersed in their happy zones. Formula: Just don't let them inflate too much, we don't want to have 2 huge zeppelin pups Ryder: Of course. Balloona X: They live up to the task though. *She inflated to match Formula's size, grabbing the other two ropes for her teammates.* Meet ya back here in a few Formy. Formula: Same with you Loony. *Both weighted pups then left to train their teammates in different places* Ryder: Well, hope those go well. *He kept his eye on the other two pups as a transition with Formula's tag had him and his two candidates at the beach, back to normal and with his Sea Patrol paw equipped.* Formula: Alright, let's see how you two can handle this exercise... First, you two have to inflate to inflatable raft size Zuma: Sounds good dude. *They both then began to inhale deeply as their bodies began to swell up a bit. They stopped when they reached a size similar to a raft's with their paws slightly sunk in* Formula: There we go. Let's see if you can handle controlling your body in the water. Try swimming and float around in it. If you think you're ready, you can inflate your body bigger as you move around the water, if you please Rubble: Ya sure? Formula: Of course. Just think of the tricks you can do on the water like this... Zuma: Tricks? *For a moment, Zuma began to think. He was a bit lost as he kept inflating as he was paddling around with some form of experience* Formula: Hmm, looks like Zuma's found his happy place now. Rubble: What do you think he's thinking of in his happy zone? Formula: Maybe doing tricks out in the water like this... Rubble: He must really be enjoying himself... *but then his stomach started to gurgled* Formula: Is something wrong Rubble? *then he hear Rubble's stomach gurgling again* Sound a bit hungry there. Good thing my cube has a special infinite treat generator in it. Rubble: Infinite... Treat... Generator?! Formula: Yeah. I mainly did have it made for Loony, since it can make custom treats to suit any pups taste. Just let me pull it out as I can *He had a vending machine looking device pop out, with tag icons for himself, Drift, and Balloona made, with several other vacant panels as well on the front.* Install your tag so the generator recognizes you for your treats. Don't worry, you get your tag back after the scan process Rubble: Whoa! *Rubble quickly paddled over to Formula and exhaled the excess air out of him to reach his normal size. He then took his tag off and placed it on the machine. The machine documented his tag, showing a screen on the side with options for treat size, shape, flavors, and such.* Formula: Now make your ideal treat. Rubble: Cool *He went through the options* Hmm, this looks good. Oh definitely that. I'll take that. *After he finished, an icon labeled "Dispense" appeared. He taps on the icon, and his treat appeared on the bottom of the machine* Whoa! *Rubble then quickly ate the treats with much joy. He soon got lost in thought as he began to inhale deeply with little to no control on stopping* Formula: Oh boy... looks like training's changed... *He had the machine put back into the cube as he looked at the two pups.* I uh... was supposed to do water moving training, but... oh dear... *While Formula watched his two teammates, a transition with Balloona X's tag had her with her two trainees, back to normal.* Balloona X: Alright, let's begin the lesson. Chase: I mean, we saw you and Formula do this before, it can't be that hard. Balloona X: Then let's see if you can do this shape first Rocky: Which shape? *Balloona began to inflate herself slowly, and then rearranged her swelling to go to her backside as it increased in size giving her a pear-like appearance* Balloona X: Try this shape, boys. Hehehehe Chase: Pearloona X shape? Rocky: Ok then. *Both pups then began to inhale deeply as their bodies swell up a bit. They then tried to move the swelling to go down, but it didn't seem to be working* Both: Huh? Balloona X: You got to focus on the shape that you want Rocky: So... think like a pear then? Like you told Formula a while back? Balloona X: Yep Chase: Ok. *They then tried to concentrate on themselves, and their bodies began to shift a little. Slowly they almost gained a pear-like appearance on their backsides. They took notice and cheered a bit* Balloona X: With alot more training in pear shape, you can change its shape to be like this... *Her pear figure changed to have all the air into just her backside alone, causing her to giggle.* You can be like Ballooty as Formy calls me, hehe. Rocky: Well, he does appear to have some liking to that form of yours. Balloona X: This form's a literal pup magnet either way around! *She wagged her tail, but due to the size, her rear sway a bit as well.* Chase: "pup magnet"...? As in, love magnet to your... love pup? Balloona X: Of course. Formy likes this form, and I like his! Chase: I never thought of it like that... *Chase got so wrapped up in his thoughts that he didn't even notice that his pear shape body soon changed to look similar to Balloona's. He then got a little distracted and a little breathing that he didn't notice the increase either* Balloona X: Hey, look at that. Seems Chase mastered his ability, and found a happy place of his own... Rocky: I guess you found his spark on him with Skye Balloona X: Well she found her spark with him, so... it made sense. Now I need a way to get your happy zone unlocked, but how can I do that... Rocky: Well... I'm trying to think, but nothing comes to mind. Balloona X: Man... *She deflated her figure back down to normal.* Hmmmm... what could help you... Rocky: I'm not sure. I was trying with recycling, but that's my usual thing. *Balloona tried to figure this out for a moment, when a thought suddenly arose* Balloona X: Oooh... I'm just imagining what would happen when we meet the mer-pups again with you all like this. Rocky: What do you mean? Balloona X: Well, they already know about me and Formy, imagine how much more fun it would be for our Mer-Pup friends if they found out about you? Rocky: R-Really? Balloona X: Just imagine it, Rocky Rocky: It does sound nice... *Rocky began to think of all the fun he could have with the Mer-Pups that he didn't notice his shape shifting further down. He began to get lost in breathing as it soon was getting a bit larger* Balloona X: And that's another... looks like Rocky may've lost control of his pear form to more conventional again... *Her tag happened to light up as Ryder called.* Ryder: Balloona, I just called Formula. Things go well for your two pups? Balloona X: Oh yeah, really well. How are the others? Ryder: Skye and Marshall practically took the entire tanks of helium and are still in their states, Formula managed to train his two pups as well. Balloona X: That's great to hear. Ryder: Be interesting to see what you two managed to do... Balloona X: Yeah... *She looked, seeing the sphere of Rocky just have his belly expand while Chase just had his rump swell.* Ryder: So... Think you can bring them over? Balloona X: I should be able to. Ryder: Great. See you then. *Her tag dimmed as the call ended* Balloona X: Ok, how can I get them back to the Lookout? *She looked at the ropes around their paws, shaking her head slightly.* Hmm... Maybe. But it might work *A transition with the usual emblem transitioned back to Ryder, having Skye and Marshall with their tanks aside.* Ryder: Hard to believe that they took in the whole tank though... *he look up at the pups* and they are still in their happy zone Formula: They are locked in pretty go- oh my goodness! *He stopped rolling Zuma and Rubble, those two still inhaling and already at the size of four pup houses combined.* Ryder: Yeah, they were out of it and didn't even stop the whole time... *Notices Zuma and Rubble* I take it you had the same thing? Ryder: Well I could imagine what Balloona X did on her 2 pups? Formula: One can only dre- *He froze, having his jaw drop a bit.* Ryder: What? What's wrong Formula? *Formula pointed at what he saw* Balloona X: Hey boys! *She brought in the pup-house sized belly of Rocky and Chase, who had a rear twice that of Ballooty's size.* Lookie what I got... Formula: Loony.... how...? Balloona X: Mentioned Chase's "little" airborne sweetie and the special... "pup magnet" you know of. *She winked at him, wagging her tail.* As for Rocky, I mentioned the mer-pups having a ball with us with the new powers. And you can see that they are still going on their inflated... rear Formula: Rear? Rocky's got more of a big belly though... Balloona X: I know, but still Formula: Wait a minute... *He walked over, nodding a bit.* Oh... but most is in his stomach region. Balloona X: Mmhm. *She walked with her pup back to Ryder.* Ryder: Ok, time to snap them back to reality now Formula: Right. *He pulled out his cube again, showing a whistle with a cloud on it, but having a line through it.* This whistle actually breaks their focus on the trance their in. Balloona X: Ok then, blow it Formy Formula: On it. *He blew into it, no sound happening to either smaller dog, but the six blown up pups shook their heads, snapping out of their states.* That will do... Chase: Huh? What happened? Zuma: I feel like I just woke up from a nap... that lasted three days. Skye: Ah... I feel like I'm lightheaded but I don't feel like it? Marshall: Same... *He blinked twice, trying to turn his head.* Rubble: It was like I was having the most amazing dream, and now I feel off... Rocky: I was out one moment, and the next I feel like I just got up from a dream... Formula: That's what happens when you're in your "happy place" for a while. Alters your feelings, actions, and your puffiness, hehe. Balloona X: Hehehehe yea, just look at yourselves, pups Pups: Huh? *It took a while for them to look around and notice the sizes of themselves and their team* Whoa! Formula: Yeah, you guys were kind of so focused, we let you have a treat; to just have fun. Ryder: How did it feel, pups? Marshall: Hehehehe, I guess instead of "I'm fired up", it more of "I'm puffed up" Formula: More like "I'm filled up." *They all then shared a laugh as the blown up pups were enjoying their moment as they are* Balloona X: This was a great session. Hey, you know what they need now, Formy? Formula: Pray tell what, Loony? Balloona X: New suits! Formula: Right. And to go with that... I can help them properly tap into their powers whenever they want to instead of having them go off or freak other people out. Balloona X: So that way they can still have their happy zone on without going off Formula: And they can make sure they can use their ability anytime they please Skye: You know what that means for us, right Chase? Chase: We can partake in some fun cuddles? Skye: Exactly, "Chaseeky" Chase: Chaseeky? *He tilted his head, turning around a bit.* Ohhh... Cheeky and Chase... right, got it. Hehehehe clever Balloona X: Well I suggest you all deflated back down now, just in case Pups: *sighed* Ok. *Soon enough, all the pups began to deflate and slowly return to their normal sizes* Ryder: Better safe than sorry, pups. Besides, once Formula's got your new collars set, you'll be fine. Formula: Speaking of... *He started to head back to the tree.* I'll be right back, pups Marshall: What, already? Formula: Well, yeah... *Formula then pulled the branch on the tree to go down to his bunker as everyone else awaited his return* Balloona X: Don't worry pups, Formy is pretty smart and quick with the problems. He'll have you all with a much more controlled state shortly. Skye: Do hope so... because I'd like to have my cuddle time Marshall: I want to as well, but... this would probably give Everest a bit of a shock. Rocky: Imagine if she found one of those pieces from earlier... Balloona X: Who knows, Marshall Marshall: True... *He sighed calmly as Formula returned, the fixed ray in one paw and a weird device on his back.* Balloona X: Uh, Formy? What's that on your back? Formula: This is to transfer powers from the user to an item so when they equip it... Pups: We can access it whenever we want? Formula: All I have to do is to link your happy zone and ability together and transfer them to your collar tag. Balloona X: How can you do that though? Formula: Easy... *He had a cable connected from the new gadget to the Removability Ray.* When not connected, the power dissipates. When connected... it transfers to the storage on here. Balloona X: Alright... Formula: This time though, it'll handle more than one pup. *He adjusted the beam, carefully aiming at the team. Upon pulling the trigger, a different ray of light was shot at the team as a new energy dissipated around them.* Chase: I feel a bit different. Formula: Well you should... just hold still, pups Rocky: Why? Formula: For the ray effect Zuma: Right. Formula: Should be coming up... now. *The device on his back opened up, showing six collars similar to the usual pups, but looking a bit more rubbery on the strap and the tags having a balloony look to the icons.* Marshall: That's it? Formula: Well, yes. *He grabbed Marshall's collar, swapping his old one with the new one.* Ask me... feel any pressure now? Marshall: What do you mean? Formula: Three... two... one... *He pointed to Marshall's belly as he began to swell up.* Marshall: Whoa!? Formula: These are your new Pawlloon Patrol collars. Your powers are all in them. Plus... had to add the balloony icon per each, so Marshall can literally be ready for a "puff puff rescue." Plus, when your pups aren't in Pawlloon Patrol rescue time, the tag will turn back to its normal look, but you can still keep the power on you including linked up to your airbag vest suit too Pups: Wow! *Skye then went to grab both her and Chase's collars* Formula: Go ahead pups, try it out. Right now, the tag symbol will be on normal until we need Pawlloon Patrol style Skye: Sweet! *She got her new one on, looking at Chase.* Chase: So I guess you wanna... Skye: Yup! Chase: Alright Skye, for you Skye: Yay! *She flipped in delight. Chase then put on his new collar on* Chase: Ok, let's go. Formula: You two have fun. *A transition of the usual emblem showed the pups having various forms of fun with their new abilities, with Chase and Skye enjoying their puffed up cuddle session together* Skye: Hehehehe, this is so nice Chase: Better than your fantasies, huh? Skye: Yeah, cause now I get to really enjoy this with you. *They then had a moment to nuzzle each other* Now I know how Balloona X and Formula/Drift feel when they do this together Chase: Do wonder what they're up to though... *Rubble was shown swelled up a bit and was practicing a little bounce routine for himself* Rubble: Hehehe, kind of fun acting like the ball for once. Zuma: Amazed you haven't been eating a bit dude. Because if you do, your stomach could handle all that treats without any stomach pain Rubble: Ooh... good idea! Zuma: Wait, what? Rubble: I do feel hungry anyway. I'm gonna get myself some treats for myself Zuma: Oh boy. You have fun with that dude. I'm gonna go in the water to see if I can do some new water tricks there *both pups went their separate ways* *Up in his room, Marshall was looking in a mirror, shifting from the full ball shape to the bottom heavy pear shape.* Marshall: Hmmm? Should I use Pear shape to show Everest this? Or... *He concentrated further, having it go all to his rear.* Should I use Rear shape for her instead? *He continued shifting between pear and rear form, unsure which to work with.* Oh I can't decide *Then someone is knocking on the door* Marshall: Yipe! *He quickly deflated back down.* Who is it? *The door open as Rocky walk in* Rocky: It's just me, Marshall Marshall: Oh... hey Rocky. Rocky: Are you doing ok? I keep hearing inflated noise in here... Marshall: Well... just trying some stuff out is all, don't worry. Rocky: It's about Everest, isn't it? Marshall: Maaaaaybe? Rocky: Well, I'm sure whatever you're planning on doing for her, she's gonna love it. She did love you when your suit did inflate, what's so different about yourself being inflated Marshall: Well... if she saw it when I'm in my vest, she'd probably think it'd be my airbag. Without it on... it's a whole other level. Rocky: Yeah, it might be surprising to her, but she'll love it with all the new fun you two can have together. Marshall: I guess... Rocky: Also, the airbag vest does inflate the extra bit to morph into the lower half, so... there's a big difference. Marshall: Oh right. Slipped my mind a bit there... Rocky: Trust me, she'll love you no matter what Marshall: Yeah, thanks Rocky. Rocky: No prob dude. So what are you trying to inflate to be? Marshall: Well I wasn't sure if I wanted my body inflated for a cuddle session together, or go with the "pup-magnet" feature back there... what do you think, Rocky? Rocky: Hard to say really. Just be yourself though, she seems to like that. Marshall: Alright, sounds good. Rocky: Good luck to you on that then. *He left the room, closing the door as he sighed calmly.* *A transition of the usual emblem showed Ryder in the bunker working on something, while Formula and Balloona were having some fun together* Balloona X: Even if this was an accident Formy, I still think this was probably one of the better ones to occur. Formula: Does have its advantages, sure. Balloona X: Things are going to be a lot more fun around here... Formula: Yeah... Balloona X: I think we need to have a bit of fun like one of your File videos. Formula: Ok but let me check on Ryder before we do it Balloona X: Oh fine... *She went to the side bedroom, waiting patiently as Formula went to the computer.* Formula: How's it looking? Ryder: So far, looking good. Just having a slight issue with... This part here. *Shows the blueprints and points to a section around the back and torso* Formula: What's the problem? Ryder: I'm trying to make sure the equipment part will stay attached to the suit once it's pulled out and make sure the belt won't be too tight Formula: Hmm... that is tricky honestly. *He looked at the bit before glancing to his right a bit, chuckling softly.* Of course... I can easily make each pup their own version of my cube for their equipment. All they need to do is call out their equipment and the cube does the rest Ryder: You can do that? Great! Formula: It will take a bit of time though, but that'll have to wait till Loony and I have had our fun. Ryder: Alright then Formula: Good luck there though. *He left, joining Loony back in the side room.* Alright... took care of that, what were we discussing? Balloona X: How we were gonna have fun together... Formula: Ah, right. You mentioned a callback to a File video we did? Balloona X: Yep Formula: Which one exactly? Balloona X: Come on... you know it. *Formula thought for a moment on what she meant* Formula: Wait... Do you mean... Balloona X: Yep, Hehehehe Formula: Hmm... *He smirked, kissing her and puffing a bit of air into her.* Like that, Loony? Balloona X: We need more than that... *She then kissed him and puffed some air into him as well* Formula: Ooohhh, time to kick this puffy train to overdrive! Balloona X: Heh, sure that's not Drift talking? Formula: I can be fun too... *He kissed her again, and continued to puff her up more* Balloona X: I know, and I like it! *She resumed puffing him up as well. Both of them continue kissing and puffing each other* Formula: So we doing a room fill again, love? Balloona X: You know it, sweetie. *They continued to puff until their bodies began to touch the walls* Formula: Mmm... I think I found my personal happy place, and it's with my blimpy collie. Balloona X: Same with me, and it's with my ballooned lab. Formula: Aww... *He blushed a bit, rubbing noses with her in delight.* Balloona X: It's so nice we can have some time like this for ourselves. Formula: Agreed... *He gave her another puff, snickering to himself.* Balloona X: Oh you... *She gave him another puff, as they continued for a bit until their faces were pressed against each other. They took the time to nuzzle each other and enjoy their time* Formula: Mmm... no real room now, but I think we needed this. Balloona X: Yeah, we did. Formula: Mmm... *He softly kissed her nose.* Balloona X: Oh Formy... *She returned the favor to him.* *Back on the computer, Ryder finished up working on the rough design of each suit as he left to take a break. Unbeknownst to anyone though, the screen showed a piece of the Duplicability 2000 starting to fall back down, and one such piece was heading for Adventure Bay. The sunlight shined down over Adventure Bay for the start of a new day, with some of the pups waking up in their puphouses.* Chase: *yawns and stretched for a bit* Morning. *then he get tackled by something big and round* Skye: Heh, morning Chase! Chase: Hey, Skye. You're inflated, why? Skye: Just trying to do a surprise bloated tackle on you *she nuzzle him* Chase: Hehehe, well it certainly was a nice surprise. Skye: Hehe, glad to know I did my job! Ryder: *yawn* Morning you two, guess I came out on a small cuddle, huh? Skye: Not small in any way! Chase: *he look at Balloona X and Formula/Drift puphouse and don't see the duo* Btw Ryder, where are Balloona X and Formula? Ryder: I'm not sure honestly... I thought they came up after last night. Skye: Should we check on them? Ryder: I guess, they were last seen in the bunker Chase: Let me and Skye find them, we can handle this Ryder: Alright then, go ahead. Chase: Well first… He gently patted Skye’s belly. I need to be able to move around. Skye: Oh sorry *she deflate her body and get off of Chase* Chase: Ok, now let's go. Ryder: Oh, I forgot to mention... the Lookout Tower's elevator can now go down to the bunker area Skye: Thanks for the heads up. Let’s roll Chase! *Chase and Skye then rushed to the elevator as it then brought them down to the bunker. They looked around for a bit, but didn't see any sign of Formula or Balloona X* Formula? Balloona X? Where are you two? Chase: Let me try to smell them out… *Chase sniffed around until he picked up a scent. He followed the trail until he was led to a closed room* I think they are in here Skye: Alright, let’s check. *She opened the door, seeing the bedroom the two had been in all night, cuddling softly on a bed in the corner.* Aaawwww Chase: I think we should give them a little more time together. Skye: Yeah… *She closed the door, her ears perking up at the sound of the computer.* Huh? Chase: What is it, Skye? Skye: The computer down here. Chase: What about it? Skye: It’s beeping. *they walk up to the computer* Chase: Hmm, I wonder what's up. Skye: Let me see… *She looked around, eventually clicking on a button to show it was the part impact time and location.* Chase: Huh? "Part Impact"? Did he find out where the parts fell to? Skye: No… this is real-time. This one hasn’t landed or come close to landing yet. Chase: So it can only warm us when a part come down? Skye: Maybe when one gets close enough, yeah… should we get Formula up for this? Chase: We still have a few hours, but probably. Skye: Right. *Just then, both their bellies rumbled* Hehehe, guess it's time for breakfast. Chase: Let's hope Rubble's not planning to eat all our breakfast with his ability... *From behind the pups, Formula crept up silently, smirking.* Formula: He probably will if we don’t move, mates. *Surprised, the pups inflated a bit before turning to see Formula and Balloona awake, and a bit knocked back* Balloona X: Formy, what’s with your scare tactic lately? Formula: Just to keep the skills sharp. Chase: Well, don't do that. Skye: Hehehe, it's actually nice to feel this surprise inflation. Balloona X: Well, let’s have you guys keep your powers off though. You know… Formula: Normal collar look. Skye: Uh no, you did said we keep our power even if our collar tag is on Normal look Formula: Oh right, we forgot... Balloona X: I guess our last night cuddling made us lose focus abit Chase: But it probably will help us to keep a more normal look. Formula: You just need to control your bad reaction since you pups got your ability Balloona X: Like you with that vampire bat above your head? Formula: Ok, fair enough Formula: Bat! Where!? *he run back in the room* Balloona X: Heh… one runs away, one acts like a pufferfish… Chase: You should go get him, we'll try to keep Rubble from eating everything. *Skye and Chase then deflated as they returned to the elevator and went up* Balloona X: Don't worry Formy, the bat is gone... Formula: Y-You sure? *He peeked through the door.* Balloona X: Yes Formula: Good... it's not like... I'm scared... Balloona X: Then why is your body all bloated up in the room *she open the door wider and see his body all bloated up, filling the whole room* Formula: J-Just making sure... Balloona X: You a "little" scaredy pup? Oops... *She covered her mouth.* Formula: What was that? Balloona X: N-Nothing! *She rubbed his head.* Hehehehe Formula: Mmmm... forgiven. Balloona X: *sighed* Well, I think it's time for us to meet with the others for breakfast. Formula: Fair enough... *He kissed her, exhaling some air into her before breaking the kiss and deflating fully.* I partially forgave you... Balloona X: Hehehe I deserved it Formula: Yes you did. *He hopped onto her body, beginning to roll her along like she were a circus ball.* Balloona X: Whoa... Formula: Going up? *Formula then rolled Balloona until they reached the elevator and entered. When it reached the first floor, Formula continued to roll his collie outside to the others* Balloona X: Hey pups. Sorry we're late... Marshall: Trying out for a circus act like we did? Formula: You can say that... Rocky: Well you came just in time for breakfast... Balloona X: Perfect, I'm hungry! *she exhale the air out of her* Formula: Whoop! *He fell on top of her before slumping down to the ground.* Should've gotten off... Balloona X: Yea... Ryder: You pups better eat before... Rubble: Breakfast time! Rocky: Uh oh. Rubble: *he rushed over to the bowls and immediately ate his kibble before staring at the others'* What? Zuma: Dude... did you even taste the food before inhaling it? Rubble: Didn't have time, I was hungry. And I still feel a little hungry. *He then began to stare at the other bowls, with the others getting concerned looks* Balloona X: Rubble, don't you think about it! Rubble: But yours looks so good... *He unknowingly began slowly walking to the other bowls* Formula: Never touch Loony's food mate, not a good call when she's hungry... *He backed away in worry.* Balloona X: Rubble, please stay down, we just want to have our breakfast in peace *Rubble was too busy staring at the food, he didn't respond to Balloona* Alright, that's it! *Balloona inflated herself to still give her a bit of mobility with her legs still on the ground. She then bumped Rubble back a bit with her new body.* Rubble: Huh? Hey! Formula: Oh dear, look like you awoken and unlocked "Sumalloona X" form for Balloona X Balloona X: Back away from my food. Rubble: But... I'm hungry. *He then inflated himself to match Balloona's size and shape. The pups then stared at the 2 inflated pups* Chase: Are they gonna do what I think they're gonna do? Skye: Sumo match? Chase: Yep *Both pups then began to charge a bit before bumping their bodies against one another relentlessly while on their hind legs. The other pups watched as they ate their food* Formula: Rubble doesn't stand a chance against Loony. I know from experience. Skye: Yep, plus she is an expert with this Chase: Did you do a sumo battle with her? Formula: Nooo? Chase: Formula.... Formula: Honest, I haven't. Chase: Then why did you say "Nooo?" like that? Formula: Uhh... *He nervously chuckled a bit, before looking back.* Why not just watch the match instead? Chase: You do realize I can inflate myself and sit on you until you tell Formula: You wouldn't... *Chase inflate himself to a pear shape then sit on top of Formula* Chase: You were saying... Skye: Hehe, atta boy Chase! Better than your jail cell suit? Chase: Thanks Skye *he look at Formula* Trust now, or I get bigger... you know you never keep secrets from a police pup Formula: Ok, ok! Chase: Then tell me... Formula: Fine. I maaaay have practiced a bit when I was alone, and Loony came in. Chase: Ok then *he get off of him and deflated back down* Skye: Was that so hard to say? Formula: Let's just continue watching this while we still have a chance to eat our breakfast... Rocky: Probably for the best. *The rest of the team ate their breakfast while the two big pups continued their sumo match.* Balloona X: Time to end this Rubble Rubble: I agree... but I've seen all your tricks. Balloona X: Not all my tricks Rubble: Oh really? What could you have now? Balloona X: This! *She had her backside swell up further, showing off a bit to the other teammates before swinging it and knocking the bulldog down.* Boom! Rocky: Whoa. That's a new one... Formula: C-Could say that. Skye: You ok, Formula? Formula: Y-Yeah. *they see Rubble started to deflate himself as Balloona X get off of him* Rubble: Ok, lesson learned! Balloona X: Good *she deflate herself back to normal as she returns back to her seat and eat her breakfast* Marshall: Well, that was something. Formula: This is why I don't mess with my big love pup Balloona X: You better believe it. *She licked his cheek, winking while whispering into his ear.* Bet you liked that a bit... Formula: *he blushes* Uh yea... Balloona X: Eat up, we got some mods later. *After the pups ate their breakfast, a transition with their logo took them to later in the day where they were all relaxing in the park. Up in the sky though, a light blue light seemed to be glowing before landing over near Katie's.* Katie: What was that? *she go outside and look around. Cali went outside as well in wonder of what happened. Cali looked for a bit, until she saw the piece nearby. She meowed in curiosity and went over to it to give it a few taps. After a while, the piece glowed a bit before the energy from it flowed into Cali. Cali then let out a frightened meow that got Katie's attention* Cali! *She ran over to the cat, seeing the piece of the dish and Cali next to it.* You alright? *Cali meowed as Katie hugged her to make her comfortable* Don't worry, I'm here *Katie comforted Cali for a bit before looking at the piece for a bit and picking up. She then went back inside to comfort Cali some more.* *The scene panned to the pups in the park nearby, looking around confused.* Skye: I don't get it. It should be here... Chase: Yeah. I saw the light for a second, and it sounded close, but… where did it land? Skye: You think it could be a part? Chase: Could be Formula: Well, it is pinpointed in this area, but if another animal touches it, their power is way, way less stable than yours were. Chase: How so? Formula: Well, while you pups had your trouble, that was cause the device overloaded from the six at once. Those pieces can really be unstable if someone panics, sort of like… unable to stop. Chase and Skye: Oh Formula: For instance… *The screen split to show Cali resting easily.* First, you’d hear the gurgle from your belly. *Cali's belly started to gurgle* Katie: Cali, you alright? Hungry or something? Formula: Then, you feel the slight pressure, like a stomach cramp. *Cali meowed in pain abit as she put her paw on her belly* Katie: Got a tummy ache Cali? *Cali nodded* Katie: Don’t worry girl. *She softly rubbed her belly.* There you go, Cali Chase: So what happens after? Formula: Well, it’s a small belly first, like so. *He expanded his belly a bit as on cue, Cali’s did as well.* Katie: Huh, what the? *Cali looked a bit worried as the screen split left to just the pups again.* Formula: And you obviously get the point, but if you’re in a tight space, get to the open pronto! Chase: Pronto? Formula: Yeah, quickly. Like… right now or so. *His ears perked up, hearing the door at Katie’s open.* Huh? Chase: What is it? Formula: Coming from Katie's place? Marshall: Better go check then. *The pups rushed over to Katie's, and were surprised at what they found* Rocky: Oh boy... Chase: At least we see what happens... Katie: Pups, what's happening to Cali?! Formula: Did she touch a weird mechanical part maybe? Something that looked like a part of a satellite dish maybe? Katie: Well come to think of it... *She pulled out the piece from earlier from her pocket* I did see her next to this thing. *Shows the piece to the pups* Formula: That's a piece of my Duplicability 2000. Katie: Duplica... what? Formula: It duplicates abilities from others and allows others to use them. I know how to fix Cali though. But we need to get her out first, we better call Ryder Balloona X: Better be quick then. Fomula: On it. *His tag lit up, calling Ryder. Back at the Lookout, Ryder was cleaning up a bit on the first floor. He then heard his Pup pad ring, and answered it to see Formula* Ryder: Hey, Formula. Formula: Ryder, we found a piece of the machine, but... we got a "little" problem, per say. Ryder: What's the problem? Formula: Well... *He turned around, showing a swollen Cali nearby.* Ryder: Whoa, that is one big cat there! Formula: It's Cali. She touched the piece and ended up having the unstable power. I need to charge up my Removability Ray and get her back to normal, but she's a bit stuck at the moment. Ryder: Don't worry Formula, it's time for our new rescue! After all, No job is too big, but no pup is too big for this job! Formula: This should be interesting though... Ryder: You're not wrong. *He ended the call, pulling his pad a bit and pressing the button.* Paw Patrol, to the Lookout! All Pups: Ryder need us! Katie: Please hurry back! Formula: Don't worry Katie, we got this. *He started off back to the Lookout, followed by the others. They all were close to the Lookout, when Marshall tripped on his paws and inflated a bit as he begun bouncing.* Balloona X: Look out Marshall. *Marshall continued to bounce to the elevator and landed on everyone* Rocky: Well, I can already see more of this in the future... Formula: Well for us, instead of us going up... *He crawled out from underneath, the elevator closing as he held his tag till it turned pink, causing the elevator to go down.* We're going down. Zuma: When could the elevator go down though, dude? Chase: It was just recently installed... Skye: We found out today when we were getting him and Balloona. Rubble: Well, that's something... Rocky: So the Pawlloon Patrol gathers in the bunker? Formula: Correct, but Loony prefers the Balloon Bunch Bunker. Balloona X: I wanted it to sound more fun... Since this will be a big rescue for us Formula: Which requires some big upgrades... *The eight arrived at a rubbery section of the elevator. The rubbery section inflated a bit for a moment, before it deflated to the regular size. The elevator continued to go down, with the pups in new uniforms. When it reached the bunker, the pups leaped out and formed in line, before checking out and admiring their new uniforms* Skye: Whoa! Chase: These looks a bit... what's the word? Marshall: Familiar? Chase: Yeah. Rubble: Why though? Rocky: Judging by their look, they look like our vehicle design Formula: Yep. Ryder and I based it off them with the later bit as well. Pups: Wow! Balloona X: We will explain once we get our assignment Formula: Right. *he cleared his throat* Pawlloon Patrol, ready to roll, Ryder! Chase: Don't I do the usual intro? Formula: Figured it'd be best to tell you how, y'know? Chase: Hmm... fair enough. Ryder: Just in time, pups... *Ryder taps on his pup pad and activates the computer behind him* Formula: Remind me to make a Puff Pad later on... Ryder: That'll wait till after though, cause we need to help Cali before she gets too big and squashes Adventure Bay under her belly. Formula, your device charged? Formula: I have a spare battery, but it'll take another ten minutes at least. Ryder: But for now, we need to get Cali out of Katie's Pet Parlor and away from Adventure Bay just in case Balloona X: Sounds easier said than done. Ryder: Which is why I'll need... *He slid the tags around, until stopping on a star-shaped balloon tag.* Chase. We'll need you to help get Cali out of the Parlor, then after... *He slid the tags again, selecting one with a hot air balloon.* Skye, we may need you to carry her a safe distance away. Chase: Chase is on the inflated case! Skye: This pup's gotta float! Formula: But just in case, we need all Pawlloon Patrol members in the field for standby, just in case something happens Rubble: How? It's not like we have vehicles down here, and going all the way back up means Cali hasmore time to swell bigger in the Parlor. Ryder: You don't have to worry about that. We thought ahead. Formula: You see Pups, there is a reason why each suit looks like your corresponding vehicle... because your body is your vehicle Chase: Wait, what? Rocky: Are you serious?! Formula: Who needs to ride a vehicle, if you can just roll and bounce around Adventure Bay instead? Balloona X: I think you're one to talk, Formy... *She licked his cheek.* Formula: Plus on your new Pawlloon Patrol pup pack, you all have the same equipment tools that Balloona X's normal equipment contains to help you on your inflation ability but I did add another equipment to your pack Marshall: Like what? Is it that cube thing you used? Formula: Wow... lucky guess. Marshall: Really? Huh, that never happened before until now... Formula: Ryder told me we'd have problems with belts and equipment, so we made a compromise. I'll explain shortly, we should probably not forget the mission... Pups: Right! Formula: Alright, Pawlloon Patrol is ready to roll! *Ryder went ahead of the pups, activating a small elevator in a hanger as he got up to the garage, getting on his atv and riding out. After leaving, he pressed a button on his Pup Pad, changing the floor to the ramp.* Ryder: Alright pups, roll out! Pups: Whoa! Formula: Best way to get out of the bunker in style Chase: But... do we just inflate to get out? I feel that's difficult with an incline. Formula: Oh right... did you think I wasn't prepared though? *as soon as he said that, the floor opens up as a spring launcher device pop out and set on the bottom of the ramp* Just get on the ramp and just inflate yourself to a nice round ball shape Chase: Ok? I assume... standard size for you guys? Formula: Mmhm. Skye: Oooh! Me first! Chase: I'll go first honestly. *Chase stepped up to the spring and inflated to the size provided and rolled back a bit. A click was heard as a large spring was released, as Chase was then launched off the ramp and out of the garage.* Skye: Cool! My turn! *Skye then stepped onto the spring and inflated as well. After leaning back and hearing a click, the spring was released as Skye was also launched out of the garage. Ryder then drove off as the rest of team, all inflated, rolled and bounced to follow him. Back at Katie's salon, Cali kept expanding a bit as Katie was looking worried outside* Katie: Oh dear, where are they? *Katie looked like she was about to panic until the team showed up behind her* Ryder: We're here Katie, don't worry. Katie: Oh thank goodness Ryder; You guys got here... *She turned, her jaw dropping at the eight big pups.* Oh my goodness! Ryder: It's a bit much to explain right now, but we'll try later. Katie: Can I ask one thing first? Can I rub your bellies afterwards? *She let out a slight squeal* Formula: Uh... we'll see. Katie: Ok then... Ryder: Chase, try to get Cali out of the salon. Chase: On it... *He rolled over to the door, seeing the puffy lavender cat there.* How do I do this though without my winch? Balloona X: Formy thought around that. Chase: How so? Formula: Remember that little equipment I said I added to your suits? Chase: The cube you mean? Formula: Yes. Chase: Ok *barked* Cube *Out from his pack appeared a cube that matched his color as it extended outward next to him* Chase: Whoa. Now what? Formula: Just bark and call out whatever equipment you have and it will appear from the cube to help. Chase: Got it. *barks* Winch! *The cube opened up as a winch belt then appeared out and attached itself onto the front of Chase's suit before closing* Formula: Hang tight Cali, we'll get you out. *His collar beeped, showing the battery was charged to his device.* Oop! Battery's ready, but... I can't just leave now... Balloona X: I'll go get it, Formy Formula: You sure? Balloona X: I'm sure. Besides, I'll be right back in 5 minutes or less Formula: Alright. Hurry back, love. Balloona X: Don't worry. *She quickly rolled back to the Lookout as Formula looked over the others.* Chase: Need to hook Cali up. Katie: And hurry, she may burst the building down soon if she gets much bigger. Formula: No worries Katie, we got this. *He rolled over, deflating down to grab the line, hopping over to Cali to attach it.* No worries Cali, the Pawlloon Patrol will get you back to normal! Chase: Well I'm gonna need some weight to pull her out *barked* Water hose! *The right side of his pack opened up and a green hose came out* Katie: Huh. Was not expecting that... Formula: Yeah, there's a reason. *He rolled back over to Katie, looking at her upside down.* You know how Cali is inflating like Loony or I usually do? Katie: Yeah... Formula: Well... the device I made, known as the Duplicatability 2000 copied Loony's powers and blasted the other six pups. Unfortunately... it kind of exploded from the overwork of energy and the pieces are floating till they come back down. Any creature that touches it turns into... *He points over to the ever-inflating cat.* Katie: Oh. Formula: Sadly... it can't stop until I remove the power since it's unstable. *He sighed quietly, his ears dropping down.* Sorry for this to happen... Katie: *gives Formula a small pet to cheer him up* It's ok. I'm sure it wasn't entirely your fault. *He blushed a bit, gently pushing against her.* Formula: Thanks Katie... Chase, you know what to do. Chase: On it. Just need to... *bark* Water Inflate! *The hose plugged into his mouth, adding water into his figure. Chase was slowly increasing in size as he continued to fill with water until he was about twice his bloated size* Formula: Alright... Try to go for it. Chase: *muffled* On it. *He let the hose out of his mouth before rolling back slowly. Cali was soon getting pulled out of the salon slowly. She soon reached door and almost got stuck* Skye: Oh boy, this could be trouble if she spends another thirty seconds in there. Ryder: Come on Chase! Chase: Ugh. I'm... Trying... *Chase tried to continue to roll back.* Skye: I know you can do it Chase. *Chase looked back at Skye as he saw she was giving him admiration eyes for a bit. Chase with a little more determination, rolled with all his might as Cali managed to squeeze out the front and still slowly expanding* I knew you could do it! Formula: Great job Chase. Skye, we need to take Cali somewhere far away. Bark out your cube and barked command for your new propulsion engine fans, or fans for short Skye: How will I carry her though? Bark out my cable or harness or something? Formula: Harness, I modify it to stretch out just in case for any creature getting bigger Skye: Nice. *barked* Cube! *A cube in her color emerged from her pack. Barked* Fans! *The cube opened up as the propulsion fans got out of the cube and attached themselves to the sides of her suit, as the cube closed.* Whoa! *she look at them then she started to think of something on them* Hey Chase, do you think these fans make my body too big? Chase: Is that a trick question? Skye: Well? Chase: No, no. Not at all. Skye: Good answer... cause there is no big enough. Formula: Alright, now let's go get Cali to an open area. Skye: Oh wait... *barks* Harness! *The cube opened up as a harness and belt came out and attached itself around Skye's waist below* Perfect Ryder: Now let's get Cali out of here! Skye: Right away, Ryder! *The propulsion fans roared to life as Skye began to fly up. She positioned her self over the expanding cat as her harness was lowered down to Cali* Hold still, Cali Ryder: We may have a problem here... Formula: We could use some help. *The pups and Katie went to the front of Cali and lifted her up as best as they could. Ryder had enough room to crawl under Cali and clip the harness to the other end that Formula held* Ryder: All set Skye! Skye: Good, time to move her away *Skye's fans used more power as she began to fly with Cali in tow. A transition of a ballooned version of the logo showed the team in an open area of the forest while the pups were on different sides of Cali, keeping her in place as she continued to swell* Rocky: Alright, we should be good now. Formula: Well, aside from Loony not having my device here yet... *In the distance, a small bouncing could be heard as it seemed to be getting closer. From the trees, Balloona emerged with something inpaw* Balloona X: Formy! I got it! Formula: Ah excellent, Loony Balloona X: Fully charged and ready, and not a moment to spare! That is a big cat! Formula: Yep, lucky we got her out before she destroyed the salon Rubble: We may have to do a minor tweak later, but... *He looked up at the gigantic blimp that was Cali.* Formula: Oh right... *Formula rushed over to Balloona, as she passed the device to Formula. He then readied the device as the pups all moved away from the inflated feline. Formula then fired the ray at Cali as the energy inside her began to dissipate and she began to shrink down to her normal size.* Energy neutralized, no puffy powers left behind in her. Katie: *rushed over to Cali to pick her up and hug her tightly* I'm so glad you're ok Cali. I hope it wasn't too bad for you. Formula: She might got some sore spots on her belly from being bloated up Balloona X: But other than that, she'll be ok Ryder: Whenever you have a problem with a bloated cat, just yelp for help! Katie: Thank you! I think some pups deserve some celebratory bloated belly rubs. Formula: Uhh... look at the time. Got to recharge my Removability Ray for next time... *But he was blocked by Balloona X* Balloona X: Formy, come on... Formula: I have stuff to do... Balloona X: You're not tucking back into your cocoon like before. Katie: Come on Formula. It's the least I can do for you helping Cali... Balloona X: *she doing the pup eyes look* Pwease Formula: But... the other pieces... *He groaned, looking at those eyes.* No... not the eyes. Balloona X: Pwetty Pwease *He looked at them, groaning.* Formula: Fine... but can I at least have the piece back? Katie: After enough belly rubs... Formula: *sigh* yes, ma'am Balloona X: Allow me to help... *She double tapped his tag, grinning.* Formula: Uh oh... *A transition with his tag had Skye acting as a bed for Cali, Chase being a ball for the other pups, and Balloona X giggling.* Balloona X: Gotta love free expansion mode, huh Formy? Formula: Why did I agree to this? *Formula was shown to be expanding as he was already twice his size and still going as Katie and Balloona watched* Balloona X: Hehehehe *she look at the other 6 pups* At least now, there's not just 2 inflatable pups in the team, now that we have 8 inflatable pups in the team Chase: You said it. Hey... about a puploon hug around Formula for this? Formula: Please no... Balloona X: Sure *she wagged her tail* Katie: Don't see why giving him a lot of love and attention could hurt. *She hugged and rubbed his gray belly.* Might inflate his ego a bit though... Marshall: Or make him swell with pride, heh. Balloona X: Hehehe, then let's do it! Formula let out a small groan Skye: He's not very happy... Loony? Do your thing. Balloona X: You got it Formula: What now? Balloona X: C'mere you puffball. *She bounced on top of him, giggling.* Formula: Loona, what are you... *She grabbed his tag, holding it this time.* Balloona X: Override speed, three times as fast. Ticklish setting, very high. Formula: What?! Balloona X: Heh, and now... *She inhaled as she released his tag, kissing him and puffing even more air as she signaled the other pups.* Skye: Oh, I think Balloona X want us to help her "little" lover boy Chase: Puploon hug time it would seem, and we'll have a literal blimp. *The pups all made their way to Formula as they joined in on the hug as they also helped Katie in rubbing his bloating belly. Formula couldn't help but laugh at every moment of it as Balloona continued to puff him up* Katie: I think your "little" pup might be a huge leader one day, huh? Balloona X: Maybe Katie, but right now... he's just my cute balloon lover boy. Hehehehe *She rubbed noses with him, continuing her puffing spree as she heard his laughter.* Katie: This is so fun! *Formula continued to swell up until he was about the size of the trees nearby* Balloona X: Alright, that's good... *She stopped his override for expanding, but left the ticklish one set.* You have some "swell" times ahead Formy. Formula: Y-You'll... hehe... pay for... hehe... this. Balloona X: No we won't. *She licked his cheek again as Katie set the part down with Ryder and the pups continued their hug against their huge team member, knowing this was just a minor size to a huge adventure.* The End
