Chapter 4: Escape, rescue attempt #2
Hello, alvinnascar5 here. Here's chapter 4 of PAW Patrol: Pups Save the Galaxy! Enjoy!
Skye was frightened at the sight of the lightsabers.
"Whoa! Watch where you're swinging those things! A four-armed robotic guy just tried to kill me with those!" said Skye. "Sorry about that. It's my instincts. And keep your
voice down. By the way, that four-armed robotic guy you mentioned is General Grievous." said Ventress. "General Grievous?" asked Skye. "Yes. You're lucky he didn't kill you.
And yes, he and I are on the same side. Now, do you want to get out of here or not?" asked Ventress. "I do. Very badly. But if you're on his side, why are you helping me?"
said Skye. "Because I don't want anything bad to happen to you. Plus, I don't like Grievous. He's really rude sometimes." said Ventress. "How do I get out of here?" asked
Skye as she started to get impatient. "Can you fly a starship?" asked Ventress. "My name IS Skye, after all. I am an aviation pup for Adventure Bay. I need to get back to
Ryder." said Skye. "Good. And who's Ryder?" asked Ventress. Skye pulled out a picture of him and showed Ventress.
"That's him." said Skye. "Okay. If I make contact with him for you, will you land where I tell you?" asked Ventress. "Yes." said Skye. "Good. Because if you don't take a
starship out of here, you're not going anywhere. I snuck into the hanger bay and prepped a ship called the Twilight. It was stolen by Grievous. It belongs to Anakin
Skywalker." said Ventress. "You want me to receive stolen property?" asked Skye. "Look, I know you're not comfortable dealing with a Sith, but if you don't take that ship
while Grievous is onboard, you're not going anywhere." said Ventress. "Okay, I get it. Now what's the plan?" asked Skye. "Get up into those ventilation shafts, and don't move
until I say so. I'm going to try and make this easy for you. Oh, and you'll need these." said Ventress as she handed Skye her Air Rescue helmet, Jet Pup-Pack, and the fallen
pirate's laser pistol that Skye found. Skye then went up into the vents and hid.
"Ventress, thank you." said Skye. "Not a word about this to anyone. Do you understand?" asked Ventress. Skye responded by moving her paw across her mouth.
"Good." said Ventress before leaving. Skye put her helmet and jetpack back on and put the pistol in her holster. "Hurry back." said Skye to herself. Ventress then sent out a
secret transmission.

The pups were getting ready to take their Holocron test when Anakin received Ventress's call.
"What do you want, Ventress?" asked Anakin. "I'm not looking for a fight with you this time, Skywalker. I need to talk to Ryder." said Ventress. "Ryder! It's for you!" Anakin
called. Ryder then came over to where Anakin was.
"She's a Sith apprentice, so be careful." said Anakin. "Hello. Ryder here." said Ryder. "Hello, Ryder. My name is Asajj Ventress, and as Skywalker said, I am a Sith apprentice,
but I am not looking for a fight with you or your pups. I heard you're looking for a pup named Skye?" asked Ventress. "Yeah. Wait. How did you know that?" asked Ryder.
"Skye told me about you. I'm sending her to a local planet to wait for you." said Ventress. "Send the coordinates to the Air Patroller. The pups and I are on
our way." said Ryder. "You better hope you know what you're doing. We'll come with you as backup." said Ahsoka. "Pups, your test will have to wait. To the Air Patroller! We'll
get our ships ready in case the Separatist fleet is there." said Anakin. "PAW Patrol is on a roll!" said Ryder as they went to the Republic ships and took off.
"Hang on, Skye. We're coming." said Ryder as the fleet went into hyperspace.
(With Skye and Ventress)
"General, I lost the pup. She got away before I could grab her." said Ventress as she put her plan into action while Skye stayed hidden and out of sight in the air vents.
"I will go to the cargo bay and search there. Secure the ship and make sure no ships leave until I terminate the search." said Grievous. "Yes, General." said Ventress as
Grievous went into the cargo bay. Ventress returned to where Skye was moments later, and motioned for the Cockapoo to come down.
"Okay, let's get me out of here." said Skye as Ventress led her into the hanger bay, making Skye look like a prisoner ready for transport. Finally, they reached the Twilight.
Ventress took Skye to the back of the ship and hid.
"Listen to me and listen good, Skye. I don't ever want to see you back here onboard this ship. Do you understand?" asked Ventress in a strict tone of voice. "Yes, Ventress."
said Skye. "Good. Now go. Get out of here." said Ventress. "Ventress." said Skye. "Yes?" asked Ventress. "Make everyone think you're trying to stop me from leaving." said
Skye. "Smart idea!" said Ventress as Skye started up the Twilight and started to lift off. But then, Grievous came back and saw Skye!
"Hey! That belongs to ME! Stop that ship!" said Grievous in an angry voice as battle droids fired at the Twilight. Skye fired back as Ventress got out of the way and
disappeared. "So long, Grievous!" said Skye as she left the Invisible Hand and went back into space.
"Whoa! This thing is fast!" said Skye as she started dodging laser-fire coming from the Invisible Hand's turbo-laser cannons.
"Oh no, you do not shoot that red stuff at me! Get a load of this, metal-head!" said Skye as she fired blue lasers at the cannons, destroying them.
"Ha! How do you like me now?" teased Skye as she started to fly towards Naboo to wait for Ryder, the other pups, and Anakin, Ahsoka, and the clones to
pick her up. Then, Grievous appeared in his fighter behind her!
"You thought you could get away? Wrong!" said Grievous as he fired several shots at Skye, hitting the Twilight and sending her towards the third moon of Vassek. Moments
later, Skye crashed, but this time, she didn't get thrown out of the ship. She shut down the power before the Twilight hit the ground. The ship slid to a stop, damaged, but still
in one piece. Skye then saw a big building in front of her.
"I'll hide in here until Ryder and the other pups get here." said Skye. The Cockapoo didn't know it, but she walked inside General Grievous's lair!
Uh-oh! Cliffhanger! Well, at least Skye escaped from General Grievous's warship, but now she unknowingly went inside General Grievous's lair, which is
where he lives! Will Ryder and the pups get to Skye before Grievous does? Which pup(s) will bravely go into the lair to save Skye? Will the pups pass their
test? So many questions! Some will be answered next time on Pups Save the Galaxy! Read and review, please!
Until next time, alvinnascar5 is off!
