After they had finished gearing up for the space rescue, Ryder led everyone to the Paw Patroller and set it for water travel. Arriving at the hangar for the Space Patroller, they put on their space suits and boarded their personal ships instead. Ryder had suggested this in order to take their personal ships on their first official mission. After lifting off, they ascended into space and located the Star-lab. Skye tried to get close to the station, but the air flow was too much and she had to fly sideways. To compensate, she zoomed in with her suit's visor and confirmed the breach in the station's hull.
"Skye to Ryder. The hull breach is present, but you might want to take a look at it.", she radioed.
"Copy that, Skye. I'm bringing Rubble to repair the station. I have everyone else on lookout for any threats.", he replied.
When Ryder and Rubble arrived, they saw what Skye was talking about. The breach was HUGE. What was more was that the metal was punched inward on one side and outward on the other side in a straight line. As Rubble pulled the bent metal flaps back and welded them together to seal the leak, Ryder took pictures of the breach and called to Chase.
"Chase, take a look at these pictures. The breach is double sided in a straight line and it is HUGE. I think something really big hit the station.", he said as he sent the snapshots.
"I see it, Ryder. However, my scanners don't show any asteroids that may have passed through, so I am worried if this was a lure to bring us up here. I wonder if something was shot at the station.", Chase replied.
Ryder became suspicious if Chase was right. On a hunch, he called the space station's crew.
"Star-lab, this is Ryder from the PAW Patrol. Did you feel anything before the alarm went off to signify a hull breach?"
"We hear you, Ryder. Yes, we felt a large jolt before the alarm sounded and we saw what looked like a giant metal ball flying out of our range of vision. However, we don't know where it came from.", replied the station's Commander.
"Your deduction is correct, Chase. The Commander reported that they felt a jolt before the alarm went off and they saw a metal ball fly out of their sights.", said Ryder.
Once Rubble had finished sealing the leaks and the pressure was stabilized, Ryder and Rubble returned to their ships and they regrouped with the rest of the members. Suddenly, they got an alert on their displays. It said: "PROXIMITY ALERT: Ship Approaching!"
"SHIELDS UP!", shouted Ryder.
He did not know they had waited too long.
