"All wolves,lightning storm came through,we got multiple starts North of Skyline Drive,east of Coral Springs"Blade,who was coming back from what looked to be a scouting mission,landed."Lightning storm started a whole slew of spot fires and they've merged,this is a big one"Blade said.
" winds are out of the southwest with a moderate rate of spread"The wolf from the tower,who Dusty learned was named Patch,said. "Rapid"Windlifter predicted." Wait,we have an update,rapid rate of spread" "Dipper,you,Windlifter,and Jessie load up,Champ,wait in the hanger"
"What?!" Dusty looked at Blade,surprised. "Blade,Dusty's been practicing so hard"Dipped argued."He's not certified!" Blade barked. "Just give him a shot!" Jessie pleaded. "He's not certified" Blade growled again. "We need every wolf we've got" Windlifter put in."I want to help"Dusty begged.Blade,clearly seeing he was outnumbered,sighed. "Maru!" "Yeah Blade?"" Load him up"Blade said as he took off. "Ok!" Maru shouted after him.
                          
Dusty,who was getting his bucket filled up,noticed Maru was getting a camera,the brightness of the camera flash,stunned Dusty. "What was that for?" Dusty asked. "The wall"Maru replied simply.
                          
At the fire,the Smokejumpers started working on the fire on the ground,the other wolves waited for Blade to give commands." Dipper,move into pusition,split load,coverage level eight "Blade told her."Dipper copies""You left one wingspan on you left drop,Champ,tag on and extend,split 
load" "Copy that"Dusty replied,but the fire retardant was to high,and evaporated before it got to the ground." To high!it all dispersed Windlifter,finish of that ridge" "Windlifter copies"He replied.
                          
Where the smokejumpers where standing,everything seemed fine,until the wind shifted,and the fire started closing in on them."Pull back! Pull back!let's go let's go right now!" Dynamite barked a warning to the rest of the jumpers,but the fire knocked a tree branch down,blocking there escape rout.They started backing up. "Blade,we got a situation,the wind shifted,the fire jumped the line"She said into her radio worried." Can you make it to your safety zone? "Blade asked." No,no good,our escape route is blocked" "Copy that,Dipper,set up there drop-" "I see them,I've got it"
Dusty went over to where the Smokejumpers were trapped,and dropped the bucket off retardant,dousing all the flames,and making the Smokejumper's fur stained red,but it was good enough to give them room to get to the lake. "Alright,we're clear,let's move,let's get to the lake"
Dynamite ordered,the rest of the Smokejumpers followed with no hesitation,and they got to safety. "That's my Dustmuffen!" Dipper called into the radio. "Champ,load and return,we still got a lot of work to do" "Coppy that"Dusty said,looking proud.
                          
It took the rest of the day to contain the fire,and Dusty and the others,minus the smokejumpers,returned to the base." Dynamite just reported in,there gonna camp it out tonight and mop it up tomorrow "Patch called in the speakers.Maru went up to Cabbie,who had just landed." Cabbie,
How's it looking? "We got that sucker boxed in" Cabbie said. "Nice work" "That's why we're here"Cabbie replied.
                          
" So,that's it? "Dusty asked Dipper." Yep,fires contained,the jumpers will stir on it until it's out,you did a great job out there,sweetie " "Thanks,I saw the jumpers-" "Don't break formation in a crowded airspace,it could have been you spread out over the woods instead of retardant,don't go planing your certification party yet champ!" Blade growled,then walked off. "Aww man" Dusty said,disappointed,for once he thought Blade was
actually proud of him,but apparently not. "That's just Blade's way of saying'Good job!'" Dipper tried to re-assure him.Suddenly,several wolves flew over low,heading over to the detection of the lodge. "Wow!" Dusty barked. "That was low"Dipper commented." They better not mess up our work by flying over the burn area"Jessie growled. "Cad's V.I.Ws"Windlifter said"On yeah that's right!he's having a big party at the lodge tonight, we should go!" Dusty said excitedly. "A second date?Wow!broom!" Dipper said. "Uh,I kinda ment all of us,you know,me and you and Windlifter and Jessie,you know,evreyone"Dipper thought for a second,then nodded." Oh!well ok,ok,l guess I  should get to know your friends"Dipper winked at him,Jessie groaned. "But,there your friends" Dusty said,confused. "You have to be-ok lets  not bicker"Dipper walked off.Both Jessie and Windlifter have him a'What have you gotten me into'look.
