"What happened?" Lilo asked.

"Someone from the Galactic Federation came to capture Stitch." Jumba explained.

"Who in the Galactic Federation would have a grudge against Stitch?" Nani said.

Jumba and Pleakly, both being from the Galactic Federation, paced around the room for a while.

Finally, Pleakly jumped up and said, "Captain Gantu!"

"Precisely!" Jumba exclaimed. "But I thought he was in jail!"

"But he could have easily escaped." Nani said. "He's huge!"

Owen walked in the room. "What's going on here?"

"Gantu captured Stitch!" everyone said in unison.

"I don't think we can do anything, Lilo." Nani said, braced for a scream. Lilo just walked to her room.

******************************************************************

After dinner, Owen, Pleakly, and Jumba met in the basement.

"I think we could get this baby off the ground." Owen said.

"The thrusters still work." Jumba said. "And the controls are in the attic."

"It's settled then." Pleakly said. "We do it tomorrow."

GANTU'S CRUISER

Gantu's cruiser landed on a landing platform. He stepped out of the cruiser with a cage with Stitch inside it in his hand.

Yantor walked up to him and took Stitch.

"Here is your five-million credits." He said. "Now be off!"
