Slag's Fleet: Ublik Passage.

After they made it to Slag's fleet, they had to fight their way through numerous pirates. Until, Ratchet spoke.

"Okay, Clank. Do you know where Talwyn is?"

"I'll try looking for her in my conscious." He looked through his mind, and found Talwyn in a cell.

"She's in a cell. On the top of that tower."

"Then let's go, guys." Then Ratchet, and his friends went on, and fought more pirates that were in their way.

At Talwyn's cell, she was alone, waiting for her hero to come and save her from the terror of Captain Slag. She grabbed her comlink and tried to contact him. Ratchet got a signal from her and answered her.

"Ratchet."

"Talwyn! It's you."

"Yes, it's me, now look this place is dangerous! You shouldn't have come here."

"Why?"

"Because, this is a trap! Slag's only trying to lead you to me, so that he can kill you."

"Talwyn, I'm not leaving without you, I'm coming."

"...Ratchet...if anything happens to me...I-" Then she was cut off. "Talwyn!"

"What's wrong?" Clank asked.

"She was cut off. It must be from the jammers that they installed. Cronk, go and destroy that thing!"

"You got it." Then suddenly, numerous numbers of robots came in front of him.

"...Um...after we finish these guys off."

"Don't worry about them Cronk, go, we'll cover you!" Then Cronk went as fast as he could and got in front of the jammer, and was about to destroy it until, a pirate jumped in front of him.

"Ah!"

"Surrender, pathetic robot scum."

"Um...you wanna see a magic trick?"

"Really? I love magic tricks."

"Okay. Now, for my first trick, I'm gonna make you disappear."

"How does it go?"

"Like this!" Then he punched him in the face and he fell to the ground. "I can't believe he fell for that...A ha ha ha ha ha-" Then Ratchet called out to him.

"CRONK!" Cronk got shocked and looked at Ratchet. "Hurry it up, or else this is the end for all of us, including Talwyn!"

"Oh, uh, right." Then he placed a bomb on the jammer, ran away, and detonated the bomb. Then the jammer exploded, but for some reason, it didn't worked.

"Well?...Did it worked? Ratchet asked.

"Ratchet, I think there are more jammers in this place."

"How many Clank?"

"Ten."

"You've got to be kidding me. This is just not my day, is it? Oh well let's just go and take em' all out, one by one." Then they went together and continued on, destroying robot pirates.

Back at Talwyn's cell, she became tired, because of the child. She put her hand on her belly. "You're gonna come out of me real soon my little one. I don't know what to call you yet...but I'll think of something. Hopefully, it'll be a great name for you..." Talwyn said.

Then after destroying the last jammer, they were able to use their communicators.

"Okay guys, the system's online. Cronk and Zephyr, when Talwyn is safe with us, place every bomb you have, here."

"May I ask why?"

"So, we can blow this place to hell with slag along with it." Then Ratchet went pass the tower door, but the door blocked Clank and the others, their way.

"Clank! Cronk, and Zephyr!"

"It's okay Ratchet, you get Talwyn. She needs you."

"Yes, you're right Clank. She needs me. You sure y'all will be okay on your owns?"

"We'll be alright Ratchet. Now go!" Then Ratchet turned around and ran away. When he got there, he saw Talwyn in a square-box cell. He went to her.

"Talwyn."

"Ratchet."

"I'm gonna get you out of here."

"Ratchet, you must leave, If you don't Captain Slag will-" Then suddenly, Ratchet was hit in the face by Slag's hammer that was in his hand.

"Welcome Ratchet. It seems you've arrived at the right time. Now, prepare to DIE!" He was about to stab him, but Ratchet turned around and blocked his sword with his wrench.

"Surrender Ratchet, or else Talwyn dies."

"Never! I'll never surrender to you! I will save Talwyn!" He striked at him, but Slag blocked it. Then Ratchet jumped on his chest and punched him in the eye.

"UGH! My eye!" When he was caught off guard, he grabbed his sword and stabbed him in his other eye. Ratchet watched as he screamed in pain. And then he finally fell to the ground. Then Ratchet went to her cell, unlocked it, and helped her out. Then she kissed him. Then they broke apart from the kiss and looked at each other in the eye.

"I love you Ratchet. I knew you would come for me."

"Well...you know what they say...a true heart should never be doubted. And I love you too Talwyn." They broke apart from the hug.

"Now, we need to get out of here."

"You're right. The rest will be coming for you."

"Yeah, of course they will, now come on." Then they ran out of the tower and went to find Clank, Cronk and Zephyr. When they found them, they were waiting for them on his ship.

"Ratchet! Come on, let's go! This place won't last long, we need to get out of here!" Zephyr warned him. When they got to his ship, that's when things start to change.

"Ratchet! Come on, let's go!" Cronk yelled out. "...Cronk...do you have the detonator?"

"Yes...why?"

"Give it to me." Cronk gave him the detonator. "Y'all go...I won't be coming with you." Then Talwyn snapped. "What? What do you mean you won't come?"

"Because, Talwyn...I need to make sure everything here...dies."

"But Ratchet...I don't wanna lose you! Please don't do this!" Talwyn said through her tears.

"Talwyn...all I wanted was you and the child safe."

"So, you think THIS is more important than keeping YOU alive?!"

"...Yes. Look I don't want to argue right now okay? Now go! All of you! No matter what happens to me, don't turn back." Everybody, including Talwyn was sad to see Ratchet do something like this, but they have to. They couldn't change his mind. So without anyone saying anything, Zephyr flew the ship away. Talwyn looked out the window and looked at Ratchet, as a tear fell from her eye.

Ratchet watched as the ship flew away. Then there was numerous numbers of pirates coming for him. Ratchet tried his best to devastate every pirate his saw with his own eyes. When it came to a point where he couldn't kill them all, despite the fact that he was all alone, he grabbed the detonator and said his final words.

"...This is for you Talwyn..." Then he pushed the trigger and the hole pirate fleet was destroyed.

In Ratchet's ship they saw the planet exploded to a million pieces. "Cronk, check for any life forms, please."

"But...but Talwyn-"

"I just want to see if Ratchet's ALIVE!" Talwyn yelled.

"Okay, okay, Talwyn. I'll check." Cronk checked for life forms and nothing could be detected.

"So? Is there anything out there?" Cronk knew that if he told her, it would break her heart...literally.

"Ms. Apogee...there's no sigh of life forms...there's just...robot pieces, smoke, and rubble." Talwyn looked down at her feet. "I'm so sorry." Then Talwyn covered her face with her arms and cried. And then they continued flying until they reached the station. Ratchet did what he could for his friends...and for his love.

Did I shocked you? Leave a review if I did. This was something, I had in my mind, and I think it's pretty good. Stay tune for more of Ratchet's True Love.
