Episode 8: Dark Strike

[Episode begins with Robotech3:Dark Odyssey Theme and scenes

from the previous episode.]

Narrator[VO]: In our last episode of Robotech3: Dark Odyssey, the REF began their campaign of the Crongus bases upon the moon below and they have met up with resistance of a seemingly endless hordes of BioMechs, Vicoos and Qulans but not a single Crongus counterattack which makes the fleet worry. A single Zandrini Destroyer and a crew of Zandrini Warrior Clan Heretics appear during the conflict and asks for an alliance. The ground forces are taking heavy casualties from the Genetically Engineered swarm that has yet to prove to be a heavy resistance.

[Ext. shot of SDF-3A's starboard side with several ships buzzing by the screen.]

[Int. shot of SDF-3A's bridge.]

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: Talk about paranoia.

1st Officer Applegate: Huh?

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: These reports of the battle on Yullan tells of inactivity of the Crongus and they are getting paranoid because they haven't shown up in every single battle.

1st Officer Applegate: Well, the Crongus has outsmarted us and tricked us before with false reports and traps. I have a feeling that this could be a trap.

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: That is a possibility, but then war cannot be won by possibilities.

1st Officer Applegate: I know Admiral, but don't you think that the Crongus would have given better protection to their bases then just their Genetically Created Hordes. And we have won every single battle without any Crongus Biofighters or Soldiers.

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: It is suspicious, I may have not have all the experience with the Crongus but I can tell if there's a trap when I have gathered enough clues.

[Int. shot of SDF-3A's secondary hangars. Several technicians are working on a transport when a humanoid figure, hidden in the shadows, swoops pass the camera.]

Technician 1: Did you hear that?

Technician 2: It's probably your imagination, you watch too many scary alien movies and conspiracy films from the late 20th century.

Technician 1: Well aliens do exist, right.

Technician 2: Yah, they do. But I haven't met an alien who has a sign around his neck, saying that they have visited Rosswell. And remember about those archeological finds on Xemon and Tyrol.

Technician 1: Yah, well that's just the explored area of the Galaxy. What about the Occupied Zone on the other side of the Galaxy, Hank Boy.

[Technician 1 works on a servo with his back turned. The shadow figure creeps up on Hank Boy.]

Technician 1: Yah know Hank Boy, you have no vision of the truth. That the truth is out there and we got to find it.

Hank Boy: Well Billy Bob, the only truth I have ever found is that your brain must have bee- AUGmmm.

Billy Bob: What did you say Hank Boy?

[Billy Bob turns around and he sees nothing but shadows.]

Billy Bob: Hank Boy? Now don't you scare me now. You know that I wet myself if I get scared. Hank Boy! Han-

Shadow Figure: Too bad, because I'm going to do more than scare you, Sapien!

Billy Bob: What the- AAAAgaugh.

[Billy Bob gets impaled by a bone-like sword and in the shadows, the shadow figure's right eye begins to glow and shows the face of T.R. Edwards.]

[Back to bridge.]

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: We may need to pull back our forces until we know what is going on with those bases on Yullan.

[Int. shot of Voyager Bridge.]

Captain Janeway: I have a bad feeling about this.

Tuvok: What would that feeling be captain?

Captain Janeway: I feel that this whole invasion is a trap devised by the Crongus. There hasn't been a single Crongus Bioship ever since that battle over that gas planet and according to the reports, there hasn't been any assault of Crongus Biofighters and soldiers.

Tuvok: I believe that I have heard of this scenario captain. In history books, an army devises a plan to bring together all of their enemies into one small area so they can be taken out by barrages of arrows. I believe that the Crongus are preparing to counterattack any moment.

Captain Janeway: Well the Crongus can't wait for the fleet to make orbit around the moon until the bases are destroyed and we are equipped to battle an entire fleet if they should arrive.

Tuvok: The scenario also shows that full force is not needed for our condition. It shows that all that is needed is one strike without injury of the soldiers. So I suggest that-

Seven of Nine[VO]: Astrometrics to the bridge, I have just detected a small concentration of subspace energy being emitted from Yullan.

Captain Janeway: They plan to blow up Yullan with us orbiting around the blast

radius.

Tuvok: That would be the most logical assumption.

Captain Janeway: Get me the SDF-3A, we need to warn them.

[Int. shot of a corridor inside the SDF-3A. We see Roy Hunter walking the corridor looking depressed for some reason.]

Roy Hunter[Thinking]: This is so boring. I can't believe that Boss Man Sterling would ground me for three days. What did I do, exempt for not getting any rest, being reckless in battle and getting all grouchy. It happens to every military personnel during heavy combat. Grr.. I can't wait to get back into that cockpit. Why did I even join the REF division in the first place. Then again, blowing up the Police Academy isn't good on the resume back on Earth.

[Begin flashback with Roy Hunter and another cadet dissecting an explosive device.]

Cadet: Be careful Roy, do you want to get us blown to atoms?!

Roy Hunter: Relax, I have read the directions and I know how to do this.

[A piece of the device fall into a grill on the floor.]

Roy Hunter: Ooopppss.

Cadet: Now you've done it. The instructor doesn't want us to lose any

part of this device.

Roy Hunter: Don't worry, we can always replace it and besides, dose it look like

an important piece?

Cadet: Well, I guess not.

[Flashback shot outside the PoliceAcademy.]

pp

Roy Hunter: Yah see, the instructor still gave us a good grade and besides what could that piece do to the academy.

[Then all of a sudden the Academy exploded and fell into a huge hole in the ground. End flashback.]

Roy Hunter[thinking]: How was I to know that thing was a nanobomb planted by anti-colonial terrorists. Well, at least I'm making a difference to myself. What could go wrong in the military. Exempt for being ripped apart, blown up, impaled, burned, blasted, and not to mentioned killed.

[Roy Hunter suddenly bumps into Lynn Minmei]

Both: Oomph.

Roy Hunter: Sorry ma'am, I wasn't looking where-

[They then saw each others faces and looked shocked.]

Both: What the?! You look like- I mean.

Roy Hunter: Sorry, I forgot about that dimensional twin thing.

Lynn Minmei: I know, you look like a man I once knew.

Roy Hunter: What you mean Richard Hunter. I'm his dimensional twin's twin brother.

Lynn Minmei: Huh?

Roy Hunter: I know, it's complicated. Believe me. I'm sorry, I didn't introduce

myself. My name is Roy Hunter miss.

Lynn Minmei: And my name is Lynn Minmei.

Roy Hunter: I heard of you, your a famous singer in that Robotech dimension. I

loved all of your songs.

Lynn Minmei: You have?!

[Lynn Minmei had a glimmer in her eyes when she heard what Roy

Hunter had said.]

Roy Hunter: Exempt that "My time for me to be a star" song, I don't want to

offend but it was a bit annoying.

Lynn Minmei: Hump. None taken.

Roy Hunter: I didn't mean that to insult you. It's just- oh never mind.

[Roy Hunter placed his hand on her shoulder and then everything, in Lynn Minmei's point of view, went to a weird dream frame and then she turned to Roy Hunter. Then everything went back to normal with Lynn Minmei's point of view.]

Roy Hunter. Gota go, see yah later.

Lynn Minmei: Um, Roy?

Roy Hunter: Yes?

Lynn Minmei: Are you planning on doing anything today?

Roy Hunter: Nooo, not at the moment.

Lynn Minmei: Can I walk with you then?

[Roy Hunter was surprised at her question.]

Roy Hunter: Oookeeeey, might as well.

[Lynn Minmei hung to his arm as they walked and Roy Hunter began to have a nerves sweat.]

Roy Hunter[thinking]: Okay now, this is definitely unbelievable. This has to be a dream,

yah, a crazy dream and I'll wake up back into the base barracks

and back into the action. I never thought that Lynn Minmei would

want to walk with little ol' me. Actually I've dreamt of this moment

for months. Maybe I should enjoy this while it lasts. Wait a sec, I

know these kinds of dreams. When I get too comfortable with this

dream, I'll get rudely waken up by a bugle horn and it will all end. Wait a minute, the UCE don't use bugle horns...

Narrator[VO]: And so, a new romance bosomed in the heart of both

Lynn Minmei and Roy Hunter, whom is still in denial of this

reality. Not knowing the consequences of the Zor Assassin, T.R.

Edwards, slowly stalking his target and preparing to strike it down

with the blow of his Crongus strength. Love is difficult between a

civilian and a military personnel, especially during wartime and even

more difficult and dangerous as the enemy draws closer and closer

to true love's destruction.

[Int. Shot of Zandrini Destroyer Fighter Bay. Inside are Zandrini Fighters that have an engine and weapon nacelles on each side of the rectangular craft with a jet fighter canopy. There are several Shock Trooper Mecha that look like Invid Troopers exempt that they have legs of a Zentraedi Tactical Pod and four laser guns surrounding the head unit. There is also a Storm Trooper Mecha that looks like a humanoid robot with curving arches connected from the chest to the back, arm shields and dog-hind legs.]

Zandrini Shock Trooper: All fighters and mecha are ready for attack.

Commander Rokha'Mache: Good, thy will follow ye attack of ye REF at ye main

Base. Once ye Main Generator Organ is destroyed, thy can

begin full bombardment of that area and crush any resistance.

[Then the Holovid has split to an image of Rick Hunter.]

Commander Rokha'Mache: Greetings General, thy have been discussing of ye counte-

Rick Hunter: The attack is canceled, we have reason to believe that the base is rigged for explosion.

Commander Rokha'Mache: Thy believe that thou's reason is a bit premature. Do thou not think that thy should scan Yullan for some signs of-

[Then there was a huge rocking of the Destroyer.]

Commander Rokha'Mache: What in the name of Zar'I was that?!

[Ext. Shot of Yullan beginning to have bursts of subspace pulses.]

Rick Hunter: Yullan is going to explode!

[All ships begun to move away from Yullan as soon as it begun

to shatter into asteroids from subspace waves. Then from the

horizon of Arrona was a huge Dimensional Rift. It began to suck

the gases of the atmosphere as the Crongus Fleet begins to enter

the Event Horizon.]

[Int. Shot of SDF-3A's bridge.]

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: Do we have a frequency on that rift Applegate.

1st Officer Applegate: It just got the signal as soon as the rift opened. I guess that the

Crongus are leaving in a hurry.

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: Patch that frequency into the Dimensional Rift Generator just to be

sure that we can still follow them. Go to full impulse power to

intercept and get me Voyager. I don't want them to be left behind.

1st Officer Applegate: Aye-Aye Admir- Wait a sec. I got several Fold/Rifts dead ahead.

[On the monitor was a flash of light that manifested into two Tokugawa-Class Cruisers. The SFC-5034 Farragut and SFC-5037 Challenger.]

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: Get a Tow Laser on them and prepare for Dimensional

Crossing.

[Ext. shot of SDF-3A's main hangar with Voyager entering the

hold and then two Garfishes fired Tow Laser Generators which

attached to the Tokugawas and then the REF fleet barely entered

the rift before it closed.]

[Shot of the Dimensional Rift Conduit and the REF fleet.]

[Ext. shot of Pluto and it's moon Charion and a background of

stars. Then suddenly the Rift opened and the REF fleet flew out of

the rift like a cannonball.]

[Int. Shot of SDF-3A's Warroom with hologram field activate.]

Rick Hunter: Where are we?

General Reinsert: It looks like were in the orbit of Pluto. But I can't find any signs

that shows that the Crongus have been here.

Rick Hunter: Could we be tricked into entering the rift or have gone off course?

Exadore: The Crongus have spent too much of their energy in creating the

rift and changing the conduit's dimensional course is near to

impossible for the technology of both the UCE and the Crongus.

Rick Hunter: I don't know why but I'm getting a feeling that we've been here

before.

[Then a fold sphere of Macross Island and the SDF-1 appeared on the hologram.]

Rick Hunter: Could we have gone back into our past?

Exadore: Well that theory of yours General is a bit preposterous for a number of reasons. One is that we've entered the rift in the Babylon Universe and not ours. Second, the Crongus aren't able to make

any attempt of time travel and third is that the energy reading of that fold doesn't fully match our fold, so-

Rick Hunter: We're in the parallel universe of ours?

Exadore: Yes and it seems during the first days of the First Robotech War.

[Int. shot of SDF-1's bridge.]

Henry Gloval: Claudia, what just happened?

Claudia Grant: We've seemed to folded correctly but-WHAT THE!!! Where did

they come from.

Lisa3: What are yo- (gasp)

[All bridge crew are looking at the REF fleet.]

Henry Gloval: Out of the frying pan and into the fire.

Sammie: I'm getting several fold jumps off our port side.

Henry Gloval: What?

[Monitor switches to a view of several Invid ships folding from hyperspace and begun launching fighters.]

[Warroom.]

Rick Hunter: Launch all fighters, protect the SDF-1.

[Ext. shot of REF fleet with fighters launching, energy and missile projectiles fired at the Invid fleet and mecha.]

[Ext. shot of Rick Hunter's Fan-jet.]

Rick2: What the? What is happening here?

Lynn Minmei3: Rick, what's going on?

[Then Karl Riber's Dragon Borg appeared in front of the fan-jet.]

Karl Riber: Relax, I here to help you.

[Several Plasm bolts fired between the fan-jet and the Dragon Borg.]

Karl Riber: Although those guys aren't the helping kind.

[Shot of Several Tri-Wing Biofighters firing Plasm bolts and in the background several Bioships are emerging from wormholes . Karl Riber grabs the fan-jet and fires up his thrusters.]

Karl Riber: Hang on yah guys, it's going to be a bumpy ride.

[Karl Riber maneuvers the Borg through a thick battlefield of Mecha and Biofighters. Rick2 and Lynn Minmei3 watch in fright and horror of a battle between an armada of savage aliens and a fleet of REF ships trying to survive. Karl Riber was almost rammed intoby a Vicoo fighter.]

Karl Riber: Hay, watch where yah going yah big pile of-

Rick2: Look out!!!

Lynn Minmei3: AAAAAAAAAAAhhh!!!

Karl Riber: Where?

[Then in front of him was a huge, insect like starship came rushing towards him.]

Karl Riber: Ooooohhhhh shit.

[The starship rammed the fan-jet and the Dragon Borg into the hull of the SDF-1 which breached and only the abdomen of the starship, the fan-jet and the Dragon Borg entered the ship and everything went black.]

[Rick2's eyes opened slowly and Karl Riber placed a warm, wet towel on his forehead.]

Karl Riber: Welcome back to the living sleeping beauty.

[Karl Riber patted his right cheek and walked toward the Dragon Borg that was still holding the Fan-jet which then looked like a crushed can.]

Rick2: What the?

[Int. shot of SDF-3A bridge.]

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: Status Report.

1st Officer Applegate: We have several melted hull breaches in on decks 2,4 and 18. We

have portable Pin Point Barrier Generators sealing the hull and

repair teams have begun sealing the breaches. The Crongus and

Invid Armadas have retreated and we've lost 20% of our forces.

Communications Ensign: Admiral, we have a video transmission from the SDF-1.

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: Put it on the main monitor.

1st Officer Applegate: Do you think it's wise to make contact with them admiral?

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: Well, they do need an explanation from us, so lets give it to them.

Henry Gloval: This is captain-

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: I know who you are Captain Henry Gloval. I bet that this is the first

time that you have used the Fold Generator.

1st Officer Applegate[whispering to Lisa "Hayes" Hunter]: Admiral, are you sure that you should be doing this?

Henry Gloval: How did you know that? Who is this?

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: You'd be surprised at who I am.

[Lisa steps out of her command chair and steps into view of the of the monitor. All of the SDF-1 bridge crew gasped.]

Henry Gloval: Lisa Hayes. But how did you-

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: There's no time for that right now, one of our enemy ships have

crashed through the hull of your ship and we need to get aboard

right away.

[Int. shot of below decks of the SDF-1.]

Rick2: So let me get this straight. Your a soldier from a parallel universe,

just like this one and you became a marine of the United Colonies

of Earth and your at war with the...

Karl Riber: The Crongus.

Rick2: Yah, the Crongus, who are a race of energy beings who want to

rule the universe.

Karl Riber: Exactamondo.

Rick2: And they have entered our universe.

Karl Riber: Uh huh.

Rick2: And they want to eradicate us?

Karl Riber: Yep, nice and slow.

Lynn Minmei3: Is that one of their ships.

Karl Riber: More like the butt of the ship. But I don't want to worry about

them for the time being. Right now I would like to get off of this

ship.

Lynn Minmei3: What's that around your neck.

Karl Riber: Oh, this is a hologram of my fiancé.

[Karl Riber activated the hologram and an image of Parallel Lisa appeared.]

Rick2: Hay, isn't that the old sourpuss(gauge)-

[Karl Riber grabbed Rick2 by his through and pulled him towards his face.]

Karl Riber: Call her a sourpuss again and I may have to hurt you.

Rick2: O(gack)Kay.

[Karl Riber drooped him and then went to his Borg.]

Karl Riber: We've better get some rations. Well be here for a while and we

would waste energy if we're all worried, so we shouldn't worry

about anything right now.

[Then an insectoid shrill echoed throughout the room.]

Karl Riber: Ooookeeey now, time to worry.

Lynn Minmei3: What was that?

Karl Riber: Something that'll eat your brains out.

[He entered the cockpit and came out with an arm full of weapons, ammunition, body armor and survival supplies.]

Karl Riber: Now's the good time to move.

[Karl Riber gives a certain number of supplies and weapons to both Rick2 and Lynn Minmei3 and began to put on his body armor.]

Lynn Minmei3: But I can't use a weapon.

Karl Riber: Better prepared than dead.

[He places his helmet and threw two body armor at Rick2 and Lynn Minemi3 and he turned his head away and began attaching weapons and hand held equipment onto his armor.]

Karl Riber: Now hurry up and put these on.

Lynn Minmei3: Why do we have to wear these ugly old things?

Karl Riber: Because they might bite you in half if your not wearing them,

but since your the fasio-

[Karl Riber turned around and saw that Lynn Minmei was already wearing the armor.]

Karl Riber: Rrriiight.

[Int. shot of SDF-1's main hangar bay with Henry Gloval and Lisa Hayes3 followed by guards in RDF uniform. Lisa "Hayes" Hunter stepped out of the UCE military shuttle followed by Rick Hunter and several UCE soldiers with demolition equipment and pulse weapons. Lisa "Hayes" Hunter walks towards the two bridge members.]

Henry Gloval: It's amazing that you two look so alike.[One of the bridge bunnies whispered to each other saying "Except for the hair style."]

Rick Hunter: I've noticed. Lieutenant, were is the exact location of the Spoor

Ship?

[Lisa "Hayes" Hunter begins to brief Gloval and Hayes3.]

Lieutenant: Scanners show that the Spoor Ship is still in the below deck sectors

and I have several sent trails leading away from it in several

directions. We may have to do a city wide search-and-destroy

extermination operation.

Rick Hunter: How long will it be until the Vicoo spread all over the ship?

Lieutenant: They can't, those sectors are completely sealed off exempt for a few

airlocks. They will, however burrow through the walls but it will

take them some time. Our only chance of exterminating the Vicoo

is to set charges into the below deck sectors and blow them up before

they have a chance to retaliate.

Rick Hunter: Will there be any damage to the SDF-1?

Lieutenant: Nothing serious, just holes and blast residue.

Rick Hunter: And what of the trapped two down there?

Lieutenant: You mean three. Lieutenant Karl Riber has activated his homing

beacon on his body armor and from the looks of it, he's leading

the two away from the Spoor Ship but I guess that nobody told him

about the sealed walls.

Lisa3: Did you say Riber, Karl Riber?

Lieutenant: Miss, I believe that the Mr. Riber your thinking of is probably

diseased or missing at this time.

Lisa3: Yes I know(sigh).

Lieutenant: Well, I hate to brake it to you miss, but this Riber of ours belonged

in another parallel universe and he's already have a fiancé.

Lisa3: Who?!

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: The Lisa from his universe and I'm sorry about your loss.

Lisa3: Thank you but how did you get by from Riber's death.

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: Maybe we should talk about this privately.

Rick Hunter: How did you know about Lisa and Karl?

Lieutenant: I've read about it in her record. It usually helps to know about your

superiors so you don't get on their bad side. Too bad you haven't

thought of it then general.

[Rick Hunter pauses for a moment.]

Rick Hunter[angrily]: Oh, yah, thanks for reminding me lieutenant.

Henry Gloval: I need a vacation(raspy sigh).

[A short, fat man with a mustache came from around the entrance of the main hangar.]

Man: And what do you think you're doing?

Lieutenant: Were bringing these demotion charges to the below decks.

Man: But we've just begun construction of the new Macross city! I'm

the mayor and I can't let yo-

Lieutenant: Sorry mayor, we accept orders from UCE officials only and

besides, you don't have a city to govern over yet.

Mayor: This is an outrage, captain Gloval, I want you-

[The Mayor suddenly sees the group of demotion soldiers heading straight toward the below deck access tunnels.]

[Int. shot of below decks room.]

Karl Riber: We've better keep going, the Vicoo will find us any moment and

we got to get out of here.

Lynn Minmei3: What if we never get out Riber?

Karl Riber: Don't worry about it. Yah can't make a room without a door yah

know.

Lynn Minmei3: Huh???

Rick2: What's that suppose to mean?

Karl Riber: Don't know, I heard someone say the exact same thing in the

same kind of predicament we're in.

Rick2: Is it improper to end a sentence with a proposition?

Karl Riber: Aaahh shut up.

Lynn Minmei3: Can't you call someone on your walkie talkie of yours.

Karl Riber: First think that came to my mind. I can't try it because its long

range transmitter is busted.

Rick2: But can't you-

Karl Riber: Silence, I'm trying to think of a way to get us out of this

predicament so just zip it.

Rick2: But can-

Karl Riber: Zip it.

Rick2: I'm try-

Karl Riber: Zip it.

Rick2: I ha-

Karl Riber: Hevla Huva Kono. Subtitled: Zip it.

Rick2: I'm jus-

Karl Riber: Have you ever heard of www.Zip-it.com?

Rick2: It's much-

Karl Riber: Yah wana zip of my zipple.

Rick2: It's j-

Karl Riber: If you want to shut it, you must zip it.

Rick2: I wa-

Karl Riber: Zzzz.

Rick2: Bu-

Karl Riber: ZZZZZZ!!!

Rick2: ....

Karl Riber: ZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!

[Karl Riber looked around and saw several pipes going upwards towards the ceiling.]

Karl Riber: Now if I could find the right wiring, I could connect the Com Link

to the communications network and we could get help from up

above.

Rick2: That's what I was trying to tell you Karl!

Karl Riber: Well why didn't you say so earlier?

Rick2: Because- Oh never mind.

Karl Riber: Well you need to speak up a bit more boy.

Rick2: Well I was try- BOY?! Do I look like a boy to you.

Karl Riber: In my opinion........yah.

[Int. shot of Astrometrics Lab with Seven of Nine keying at the computer when suddenly on the main screen, there was a small object surrounded by dimensional matter energy.]

Seven of Nine: Astrometrics to bridge.

Captain Janeway[VO]: Yes Seven, what is it?

Seven of Nine: I have detected a small object ten meters from our dorsal side.

[Ext. shot of the Delta Flyer shuttle heading towards a man sized, metallic container with a window covered in slightly melted ice.]

Tom Paris: This is Delta Flyer to Voyager, I have found the object and it looks

like a stasis pod and I think there's something inside.

Chakotay[VO]: Do you have a reading?

Ensign Kim: Well the alloy is not within the periodic table of elements and the

construction of it suggest that it was made as both a life pod and a

stasis pod.

Captain Janeway[VO]: Any life-forms?

Ensign Kim: Affirmative. The reading is faint but it matches with a Zandrini

Female, but somewhat not.

Captain Janeway[VO]: The Zandrini Warrior Clan has evolved differently than the

other clans so this female must be a member of one of them.

Tom Paris: Should we beam the pod aboard?

Captain Janeway[VO]: Affirmative, I don't want a sentiment being to just float out

in space even in stasis. Bring it to Voyager and well bring the female back from stasis.

[Int. shot of Sick Bay with the Doctor waving a medical tricorder over the Female Zandrini which is actually Princess Kikia. Captain Janeway and Tuvok enter the room.]

Captain Janeway: So how is our guest doing Doctor?

Doctor: Her vital sighs are stable but her cerebral cortex is slowly coming out of stasis sickness. It would be a while before-

Princess Kikia: Augh!

Doctor: Then again?

[Princess Kikia covers her eyes from the brightness of the ceiling lights and she begins to speak in her native Zandrini language.]

Princess Kikia: (growns)Tomote kiu nye? (gasps) Koma na ie, goko ra kiu culot alsk?

Doctor: It's all right. We are not here to harm you. What is your name?

Princess Kikia: Thou...speak....Earthor?

Doctor: Well at least she speak the language, slightly.

Princess Kikia: Where...am...thy?

Captain Janeway: This is the Federation Starship Voyager and this is the Sick Bay. I'm Captain Kathryn Janeway, the man standing next to me is Tuvok and the man examining you is the Doctor.

Doctor: Hello.

Princess Kikia: How....did....thy....get....here?

Tuvok: We found you floating around in a stasis/life pod and we have

took you out of stasis. Now, what is your name?

Princess Kikia: Thy...am...Princess Kikia...Thy..tis....Looking...for...a...certain...Zandrini.

[Princess Kikia pulled out a small, flat disk and then there was a Hologram of Nujokolo in his Shock Leader Armor.]

Princess Kikia: Thou...name....tis....Nujokolo....and...Thy...tis...looking...for...thou.

Captain Janeway: Well why are you looking for him?

Princess Kikia: Thou...tis...my...betrothed...and....thy....want...to...reunite..

..with....thou.

Captain Janeway: Well I think I've heard of a certain Zandrini named Nujololo but-

Princess Kikia: Will..thou..please..take..thine..to..thou? Thy..has..not..seen.

.thou..since..thou..left..thy..on..Tiquoll Nanain. Please.let.thy.see.thou.

Chakotay[VO]: Captain, there is a Zandrini Troop Carrier that need supplies from us.

Captain Janeway: Give them permission to land.

Chakotay[VO]: Yes captain.

[Int. shot of Voyager's hangar and a Zandrini Troop Carrier begins set it's landing gears for a touch-down on the hangar floor. A group of Zandrini Warriors walked out and lead by Nujokolo.]

Shock Leader Nujokolo: Where are ye loading droids?

[Captain Janeway was talking to someone around the corner and then finally stepped into the hangar.]

Captain Janeway: I am Captain Kathryn-

Shock Leader Nujokolo: Thy know who thou are. Thy have come here for food rations and thy can not seem to find any cargo droids in thou's hannar.

Captain Janeway: We don't use droids for carrying cargo pods. If you could wait jus-

[Then Nujokolo hulls a huge pod over his head with only one hand and then the rest of the Zandrini Warriors start hulling the first load of the ration pods.]

Captain Janeway: Guess not. Do you know a certain Zandrini warrior named Nujokolo?

Shock Leader Nujokolo: Thy am thine. What tis that thou require?

Captain Janeway: We have found a member of your species floating around in space and she really wants to meet you.

Shock Leader Nujokolo: SHE?!?!

[Then Princess Kikia appears from the hangar entrance and slowly walks towards Nujokolo with her eyes fixed upon his face.]

Shock Leader Nujokolo: (panther growl) What tis thou doing here?

Captain Janeway: Princess Kikia has been waiting for a long time to meet you. She said that you two were betrothed to marry. Is that true?

Shock Leader Nujokolo: Sadly, thus.

Princess Kikia: Nujokolo.

[Princess Kikia was about to touch his face, but Nujokolo pulled away like he was trying to avoid a weapon.]

Shock Leader Nujokolo: Ho lov vagu kui Kikia![Subtitled: "Do not touch thine Kikia!"]

Princess Kikia: Moltu kui thel yuk utitell myi kiu myi dev ko hanto, que kui devol

mata kiu. Gevut calt kiu yalv cetovolute kui zu Tiquoll Nanain, kui

devol mata kiu. Noth wuah kiu thu mata kui?

[Subtitled: "But thine have been waiting for thou for a long time, and thy still love thou. Even though thou have abandoned thine on Tiquoll Nanain, thine still love thou. Why will thou not love thine?"]

Shock Leader Nujokolo: Kui thel boatu mata kiu! Kui yultu opa que kui yultu wuah!

Unoto yuj kana honto mata kiu que kui morqu talomti kiu

talomkye.

[Subtitled: "Thy have never loved thou. Thy never have and thy never will! Persist in this petty love of thou and thine shall harm thou dearly."]

[Nujokolo sharply turns away from Princess Kikia and quickly walks away from her. Kikia begins to walk towards Nujokolo.]

Princess Kikia: Moltu Nujokolo-

[Subtitled: "But Nujokolo-"]

[Nujokolo sharply turns towards her and with his claws opened, he made a warning pose at Kikia and made a Lion roar at her which made her stop and shiver in fear from Nujokolo.]

Shock Leader Nujokolo: Ho lov gaut ko kiu talo eno Kikia.

[Subtitled: "Do not think of thy threats bare Kikia."]

[He then turns away and carries more ration pods as if nothing happened.]

[Int. shot of SDF-1 huge cargo holds with construction equipment beginning to turn the cargo hold into a city. Several groups of UCE demolition teams open up man holes and drop several grenades.]

1st Demolition Soldier: Fire in the hole!!!!

[There was a sudden explosion and then a pluff of smoke and fire blew from the manhole and then there was the echo of Vicoo squeals of death.]

[Int. shot of a lower deck level. There was a huge swarm group of Vicoo Killers and then there was a wall of fire that engulfed them all.]

2nt Demolition Soldier: Don't you think that we should make sure we didn't fry the lost

people down there.

1st Demolition Soldier: We don't have to worry about that right know, we have a lock on

his locator beacon and he is nowhere near the blast zone.

[Int. shot of below decks crash sight. Camera closes up on a small, triangular object with a flashing red light.]

1st Demolition Soldier: The scanner shows that he hasn't moved from the crash area in

hours.

[Int. shot of Below Decks Room. Rick2 turns around towards the explosion.]

Rick2: What was that?

Karl Riber: Don't look at me. I didn't do it.

[Karl Riber was taping on a pipe conduit with a small metal fragment and then all of the sudden, he was sprayed with hot water.]

Karl Riber: (Gaugh) (gargle) (spit) Well I didn't find any wire, but I found a

shower.

Lynn Minmie3: Ooo, a shower.

[Lynn Minmei3 was about to walk toward the geyser of hot water and then Karl Riber gently pushed her aside.]

Karl Riber: Me first.

Lynn-Minmei3: Why should you go first?

[Karl Riber lifts his left arm and almost shoves it in her face.]

Karl Riber: Have you ever smelt a grown man before?

Lynn Minmei3: Phew, no Karl.

Karl Riber: Then it's settled then.

[Karl Riber opens a small bag and out comes bathing supplies and a small, portable, shower curtain and holder. Then he began to move metal sheets to make a wall covering the shower area.]

Karl Riber: Don't want anybody peeping on me while I'm showering.

[Two hours later.]

Karl Riber: Woo, that felt good. How's 'bout the rest of yah.

Rick2 and Lynn Minmei3: Yah.

Karl Riber: Okay then, let's move.

Lynn Minmei3: Karl, how'd you lose your arm.

Karl Riber: Maybe I'd tell yah lat- HAY, WHAT THE?! YOU LITTLE

PEEPER!!!

Lynn Minmie3: It was an accident, really.

Karl Riber: I'd outa slap you, yah little- Oh never mind, lets get a move on.

[Later shot of three looking tired.]

Lynn Minmei3: We've been walking for hours by now.

[Karl Riber looked at his watch.]

Karl Riber: Actually 45 minutes.

Rick3: Can't we stop and eat first before we go on any further.

pp

Karl Riber: Didn't you hear me. We have to limit our rations until we get out of

here. You can't expect to find a big fish right out of this-

[He turns around and finds a giant sized tuna outside of the window.]

Karl Riber: Rrrriiiiggght.

[Ext. shot of air lock, Karl Riber and Rick3 are trying to pull the huge tuna through the airlock with their micro-g thrusters. Minmei3 is at the airlock controls and looks on helplessly as the two barely got the entire tuna into the airlock.]

Karl Riber[VO]: Okay, we got the tuna in now.

[Lynn-Minmei looks out of the window of the airlock chamber and seems to be lost in deep thought.]

Karl Riber[VO]: MINMIEI!!!!!!

Lynn Minmie3: Oh, sorry Karl.

[The airlock doors suddenly closed and air is being refiltered into the chamber.]

Lynn Minmie3: I'm now activating the artificial gravity.

Karl Riber[VO]: NO, WAIT, DON'T-

[Then everything in the chamber came crashing down.]

Karl Riber[VO]: Minmei, if you weren't a girl, I'd kill you.

[Several moments later. Rick2 and Lynn Minmei3 are around a campfire cooking a slab of tuna while offscreen Karl Riber begins to package the rest of the tuna meat.]

Rick2: Tuna's ready Karl.

Karl Riber: Hold your horses, I've still got some tuna left to package.

Rick2: Come on Karl, you can't carry all that tuna.

Karl Riber: Well, there ain't any freezers around here either.

Lynn Minmei3: Rick, I was wondering.

Rick2: Yah, what is it?

Lynn Minmei3: Have you ever had a dream that you have always wanted.

Rick2: I used to, but now it's nothing but a pile of junk.

Karl Riber: I said I was sorr- HAY, WAIT A MINUTE!!! THAT WASN'T MY FAULT!!!!

[Rick2 cut himself a slice of the tuna and took a bite.]

Rick2: Mmmm. This is good.

Lynn Minmei3: You think so, my aunt showed me how to cook back at the

restaurant, but that isn't what I want to do with my life. I always

loved to sing, and someday I'll be famous and be adored by fans.

[Karl Riber walks toward the camp fire, cuts himself some tuna and ate from his hand which was slowly turning red.]

Karl Riber: Well that what I've heard.

Lynn Minmie3: What?!

Karl Riber: I'm not sure that it's going to be the same in this parallel universe,

but in the other universe's past, you-YYYYAAAAAAAUUUGGHHH, MY HAND!!!!!!

[Karl Riber jumps up and down in pain and searches for a pail of water and then remembers about his canteen and pores the contents onto his burning hand which emitted steam when it came into contact with the water.]

Karl Riber: Ahhhhhhhhh. What was I talking about again?

Lynn Minmei3: You were about to tell us how my dimensional self became famous Karl.

Karl Riber: Oh yah, anyway you won some beauty contest and then you took

singing lessons and after a few months you became an idol singer

aboard the SDF-1.

Rick2: Really?

Karl Riber: Yes, really. But then your not so pop- Wait a minute. The other

Lynn Minmei wasn't known until she go stuck in the- Ohhh boy.

Lynn Minmei3: What is it?

Karl Riber: Maybe we should talk about it later.

[Karl Riber picked up his tuna again and began to eat it.]

Karl Riber: Anyway, according to what I've heard, we would be outa here in a

couple of weeks. YYYYYAAAAAAAUUUUUGGHHHH!!!!!!

[Int. shot of Voyager's Mess Hall and Princess Kikia sits on a table looking depressed. Nyome Wildman walked up to her.]

Nyome Wildman: Is something the matter miss?

Princess Kikia: Thy am not feeling very well currently(sigh).

Nyome Wildman: Isn't your name Princess Kikia?

Princess Kikia: That tis thy. What tis thou's name little offspring?

Nyome Wildman: My name is Nyome Wildman and I'm not an offspring. I'm about

ten-years-old.

Princess Kikia: Am thy mistaken, thy have never met a child like thou.

Nyome Wildman: Why do you talk funny Kikia.

Princess Kikia: That tis what thy thinks of why thou speaks like thou dose.

Nyome Wildman: Realy, that is weird. So are you realy a princess?

Princess Kikia: Yes thy am. Thy am ye thirteenth daughter of ye Zandrini

Emperor.

Nyome Wildman: Don't you have a knight in shining armor to be with you?

Princess Kikia: Not yet, but thy am still waiting for thine "knight in shining armor"

(sigh).

[Across the mess hall was Nujokolo towering above the ship's cook, Nelix, and arguing to him about using the mess hall's recomblinator.]

Shock Leader Nujokolo: Thy said that this unit tis to be used only for Zandrini rations.

Nelix: And I said that it for the ship's crew. Look, people come to the

mess hull to get food and I'm the ship's cook. I prepa-

Shock Leader Nujokolo: Ye schematics of this ship shows that every crew quarters has

a personal recomblinator. Ye crew knows how to recomblinate

thou's own ration meals. Thy do not see why-

Zandrini Shock Trooper: Um..Shock Leader Nujokolo, thy have a priority message from

Heretic High Command.

Shock Leader Nujokolo: Not right now, thy am in the middle of a dissusion with Mr.

Nelix on recomblinator rations.

Zandrini Shock Trooper: Nujokolo, ye message tis about an "Incomplete Ritual".

[Nujokolo's eyes seem to widen in both surprise, shock, and fear.]

Shock Leader Nujokolo: Where am thy to meet High Command?

Zandrini Shock Trooper: Thou are having a holographic council on ye ship.

[Nujokolo then walks away as if actnolaging the council.]

Nyome Wildman: What are they talking about Kikia?

Princess Kikia: Thy dose not know fully, but tis must be frightening to Nujokolo.

[Int. shot of a council room with green holograms in the seating area and Nujokolo in a circle of laminated lights. In a dark corner stood a Zandrini in robes holding a staff with a horned skull on it.]

1st Hologram: Shock Leader Nujokolo of ye Workuin Cast. Thou has been sent

before ye council for an unresolved matter.

2nd Hologram: Ever since ye betrothal of thou and Imperial Princess Kikia of ye

Zinar Cast, thou has been declared an Outcast.

3rd Hologram: Ye reasoning you were among other Zandrini Sorceron/Warriors is

because ye Clan Alliance with all of ye clans of ye homeworld,

but then thou has reported that thou's betrothed was left on ye

dying planet of Tiquoll Nanain and thou has been brought back

into thine Clan.

4th Hologram: Thine Intelligence has recently told thine that thine's betrothed has

survived Tiquoll Nanain's destruction and is found on ye unknown

starship named "Voyager".

5th Hologram: And so thy are prepared to declare thou an Outcast though ye

ritual.

6th Hologram: Thou dose know ye words, Nujokolo of ye Workuin Cast.

Shock Leader Nujokolo: Thy know the words that thy must speak that would declare

thine an Outcast of ye clan of thine birth.

6th Hologram: Then speak of them.

Shock Leader Nujokolo: Thy, Shock Leader Nujokolo of ye Workuin Cast and member of

ye ancient Sorceron/Warrior Clan, have agreed to ye following

commandments of ye Outcast. Thy am to be outcast of all clans,

never to do any occupation relating to ye clans, never to do ye

traditions and rituals of thine ancestors, to never involve thine

own self into ye conflicts or affairs of thine race, and to never call

thine own self a whole member of the Zandrini race. Thy am to

remain alone and only be accompanied by ye reason of thine

outcast and ye dark fate in which await thine at the end of thine

Outcast journey. Thy will only be one with ye ancient

Sorceron/Warrior Clan if either thy, or ye reason is dead and thy

will only be accepted in any other Clan if thy am joined into Union

with one thy despised most. Thy am Zandrini no longer, but a

shadow in thou's existence. An enigma to thou's history and

culture. Thy am an Outcast. Now until thine own death.

1st Hologram: Remove thou's armor and weapons.

[Several Zandrini Shock Troopers came from the shadows and removed his body armor and weapons from his body while whispering chants. After the removal, he was only wearing a

spandex suit.]

2nd Hologram: Priest, give thou ye vision of Thou's Dark Fate.

[The robed Zandrini slowly marched toward Nujokolo. The priest stopped a meter away from Nujokolo and began to do chants and waved his staff.]

Zandrini Priest: Honia kama, heno mono, chakade samode, yemanee kamone...

[The chants continues and then Nujokolo sees his Dark Fate. He is in a hangar or cargo bay and he was battling a Vicoo Warrior and he was impaled by it's claws. Then another view of some medical bay with him on a table and someone holds his left hand, slowly dying from blood loss. He finally awakens from his Dark Fate and the Priest brands the palm of his hand a symbol that looks like a triangle with a circle in the center of it.]

4th Hologram: Give thou ye garments of ye Outcast.

[The same Zandrini Shock Troopers came with ragged clothing, leather boots, a cape with a hood, one glove and a wooden staff.]

pp

5th Hologram: Now leave thine, Nujokolo. Leave this camber and return to

Voyager where thou's lonesome existence shall begin.

[Int. shot of Voyager's Shuttle bay with a Zandrini Troop Carrier. Nujokolo steeps out of the carrier and all Zandrini around him move out of his way. Awaiting him at the hangar entrance was Princess Kikia, Captain Janeway and Tuvok.]

pp

Princess Kikia: Nujokolo, yuma ka gamora fu kiu?

[Subtitled: "Nujokolo, what has happend to thou?"]

[Nujokolo turns his head twards Kikia and looked at her with a snarling face.]

Outcast Nujokolo: Unuka fodalai ru kui que kuir malo batu kui tuv ya Damatri! Kui

kinako mata ko kiu thol hanata kiu keslama hotho!

[Subtitled: "Tis because of thou and thou's clan that thy is an Outcast! Thou's ignorant love of thine has poisoned thine ancestral heritage!"]

[Kikia gasps at what she has herd and tears began to build up in her eyes as Nujokolo walked away.]

Captin Janeway: What was that all about?

Princess Kikia(weeping): Tis because of thine that thou tis an Outcast, tis because because of thine love that has made thou forbidden to thou's clan.

Captin Janeway: What dose that mean?

Tuvok: I have done some extensive research on the culture of the Zandrini

Sorceron/Warrior clan so that we don't accidentally insult them and

then I found something called "The Curse of the Outcast".

Captain Janeway: And this would be what?

Tuvok: According to the curse. Any member of the Sorceron/Warrior Clan

who dishonors the clan is to be declared an outcast. He is to be

alone for the rest of his days with no one to accompany him exempt

the reason of his outcast and his Dark Fate. He can only join the

Clan again if he or the reason is dead and he can only be accepted

into another Clan if he is joined in union, otherwise joined in

marriage, with the one he most despised.

Captain Janeway: It must have been a very fearful curse. But what is this Dark Fate?

Tuvok: The Dark Fate is given to him by a priest which is a vision of his

demise if he is not joined into a clan alive and is to haunt his dreams

until he meets with the Dark Fate.

Princess Kikia(crying): And tis all thine fault.

[Princess Kikia runs down the corridor crying while Nujokolo walks the other direction slowly.]

[Landscape shot of Mars with several green-hair humanoids moving stone blocks and statues and we then see over a sand dune a construction site for a huge temple. Ext shot of a nearly completed court yard filled with 50 foot tall statues of hideous creatures in attack poses and the girders are held up by a statue pillar that looks like a Crongus Warlord wearing a large crown in a pose that looks like he's holding it with its back and arms. In the court yard were several green-hair humanoids being forced to work by a huge and muscular Zandrini Worker Clan member using a whip. Every alien in this shock exempt for any Crongus speaks English until further notice.]

Zandrini Worker: Hurry up, thou horned barbarians. Ye Crongus want this temple

finish by ye next season. Move tis or thy will have thou's heads.

Crongus General:[Subtitled: "Or the Preator will have yours."]

[The Zandrini Worker was surprised and quickly turned around.]

Zandrini Worker: General Kafuna, thy did not expect thou to be in ye site are-

General Kafuna:[Subtitled: "You should have expected my species to be anywhere they are not expected to be. How is the contraction on the temple currently Work Master Zen'Tol?]

Work Master Zan'Tol: Construction tis going as planned. But thy must wonder why not

build a base or a garrison?

General Kafuna:[Subtitled: "This war is being turned toward the Sapiens favor because the Gods are angry. We have not built them temples in a great while."]

Work Master Zan'Tol: Wise decision General, but thy must ask why built ye temple with

stone age techniques and not metal.

General Kafuna:[Subtitled: "Because this building showcases to the Gods that we have not forgotten the ancient ways of my species."]

Work Master Zen'Tol: Yes, but earlier thou said something about the Preator. What

dose-

General Kafuna:[Subtitled: "The Preator of my race is coming to oversee the final construction of the temple and he is very difficult to please unless it is what he wants it to be. So you better speed up construction and be in the final phases before he arrives, understood?"]

Work Master Zen'Tol: Y-y-yes General.

General Katuna:[Subtitled: "Good."]

[Scene faids.]

[Int. Shot of below decks room with Karl Riber, Lynn Minmie3, and Rick2 finishing making camp.]

Lynn Minmei3: Oh this is hopeless, we're never get out of here.

Kyle Riber: Patents is a virtue.

[Lynn Minmie3 then dashes toward Karl Riber, grasps his shoulders and shook him like a rag doll.]

Lynn Minmie3: Stop saying that, I hate it when you say that! Just stop it. STOP IT, STOP IT, STOP IT!!!!!!!

Kyle Riber: Ststoppp iiit, yyourr ggoingg ttto mmmakkke mmmee siiiiick.

[Rick2 runs toward Lynn Minmei3 and pulls her away from Karl Riber.]

Rick2: Calm down Minmei, we'll get out of here somehow.

Kyle Riber: Ohhhhh, I don't feel so good.

[Kyle's eyes began to spin and he then fell flat on his back.]

Kyle Riber: Could someone please stop the room from spinning.

Lynn Minmei3: We're never going to get out of here Rick, never (sobbing).

Rick2: Don't say that Minmei, we can get out of here if we don't give up. I've never been a quitter and you shouldn't either.

Karl Riber: Say that sounds so familiar, where did I hear that from?

Rick2: What are you saying Karl?

[Then an idea came to Karl Riber and then he jumped from the floor and had a smile on his face.]

Karl Riber: Now I remember, this is the part were we get out of here.

[All of a sudden, the ceiling of the room collapsed on the tent and Karl.]

Both: Riber!!!!

Man[VO]: Is anyone down there?

Rick2: We have a man trapped in the rubble-

[Karl Riber emerged from the rubble with huge bumbs on his head.]

Karl Riber: Who was the idiot who did this? When I get up there, someone's

going to get his ass whooped and it ain't going to be me!!!

Man[VO]: Hold on, we're sending down a line.

[The man tossed down a line and a bag of some equipment. Rick2 picked up a device that looked like a gun with a huge barrel and two triggers.]

Rick2: What are these things?

Karl Riber: We call them "Rope Racers", they help up clime the rope quicker with less energy. Now Rick, tie the line on that pipe over there and make it tight.

[Rick2 pulled onto the line as hard as he could until it was unable to move.]

Lynn Minmei3: How dose this thing work.

Karl Riber: Okay now, this is how it's suppose to work. You place the runner

over the line and you quickly pull it down like this.

[Karl attached his runner to the line which made a clicking noise. Rick2 and Lynn Minmei3 did the same.]

Karl Riber: Good, now there are two triggers on the handle. One is for

execration and the other is the brake. The one you want is the

bottom trigg-

Man[VO]: Could you guys hurry it up, we have a hole to seal.

Karl Riber: Keep your shirt on!!!! This is the first time these kids have ever

used these things. Its not like we're in a hurry.

[Then there was a Vicoo shrill echoing the below decks halls.]Okay now we're in a hurry, lets go go go.

[Everyone are beginning their descent up toward the rim of the hole and when they have reached the rim of the hole, several Vicoo began climbing the line.]

Karl Riber: Aaallllrighty then, everybody out of the pool. Move it!

[Rick3 and Lynn Minmei climbed out of the hole and several Demolition Soldiers dropped several grenades into the hole and then there was a huge fire ball.]

Karl Riber: Hahahahaha, try and get us now you dumb uglies hahaha.

[Lynn Minmei3 just noticed a worm-like creatures with three huge tusks crawl right behind Karl Riber and reared up to strike.]

Lynn Minmei3: Karl look out!!!

Karl Riber: Eh?!

[The creature lunged towards Karl's butt and began burrowing into his armor.]

Karl Riber: What in the world?! Get it off of mAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S UP MY ASS!!!!!![The creature continued to squirm and clime further deep into the intestinal track of Karl Riber as he runs and jumps in both shock, horror, and pain. Finally it got sucked right into Karl's butt and Karl straighten his back.] Ooouummm, t-that did not feel right.

[Int. shot of a medical bay in the SDF-1 with Karl Riber lying on his stomach and his butt was reared up. His butt is obscured by either medical instruments or a person.]

Doctor: Well, you are a lucky man. The Vicoo Burrowed doesn't normally get stuck in the intestinal track of a human body.

Karl Riber: Very comforting. Now could you get that thing out of my ass.

It's wriggling is driving me crazy.

Doctor: We can't just wait for you to (clears through) release it and we

can't do any unnecessarily needed surgery, so we have to do it

manually.

Karl Riber: Oh right manu- MANUALLY!!!! YOUR NOT GOING TO PUT

YOUR HAND IN THERE ARE YOU DOC!?!?!?!?!?

Doctor: No Riber, I'm not going to put my hand in your rectum area. It's

quite too small.

[Karl Riber's eyes then slowly relaxed and suddenly, his eyes widen as he hears a mechanical whirling sound.]

Karl Riber: What's that noise doc?[We see the doctor holding a device that looks mainly like a tube.] What are you doing doc?

Doctor: Just relax Riber, it will be over in a few moments.

Karl Riber: Doc, what do you mean a few moments? Doc? Doc? DOC?!

[Cut to an Int. shot of SDF-1 bridge with Captain Goval, Lisa3, Claudia, Lisa "Hayes" Hunter, Rick Hunter and the bridge bunnies.]

Captain Gloval: So what has happened to our young protégée Riber?

Rick Hunter: I hear that some Vicoo Burrower was stuck in something called the

intestinal track or something. [All but Rick Hunter were in disgust at what Rick Hunter has said.] What, what did I say? [Lisa "Hayes" Hunter gently whispered into Rick Hunter's ears and his face first went white and then to a deep red shade.] Ooohhhh, that's got to hurt.

Sammie: So how are they going to get it out of him?

Rick Hunter: Well they said that he doesn't need an operation to get it out and

I'm not sure how they-

Karl Riber[VO]: YYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWW

WWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lisa3: What was that?

Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: Sounds like they took it out manually.

Kim: That must of hurt, but I thought there were no medical bays on the

command tower.

Rick Hunter: And the nearest medical bay is inside the construction zone of the

new Macross- [Everyone in the scene then went white with shock.] I'm glad that wasn't me down there.

[Shot of a street with Lynn Minmei standing and waiting for something rather important to her. From the shadows we see a figure of T.R. Edwards preparing to strike. Bony blades appeared from his arm and he slowly crept towards the defenseless girl when Roy Hunter runs towards Lynn Minmei.]

Roy Hunter: Sorry I was late Minmei, something just came up and I couldn't get

myself out of it.

Lynn Minmei: That's okay, are you ready for our date?

Roy Hunter: You bet. [Lynn Minmei hugs Roy's arm and they walked together down the

street. T.R. Edwards continues to stalk Lynn Minmei in the

shadows, waiting for that moment when he can strike.]

[Screen fades.]
