The Vehicle Voltron Force was assembled in the Castle Control Room as they witnessed Vehicle Voltron's progress. Vehicle Voltron was walking faster now, dodging around, picking up, and putting down objects. VV also fixed the internal CPU clock, fixed the lens focuses and sensors, and made many other adjustments to software and hardware within him. VV then placed the results of the adjustments up on the screen of the control room, to check for compatibility between systems. What VV was seeing soon showed up on the big screen. VV then began to test some of the sensors. "Infrared…" VV said quietly as the picture of all of the people he was looking at turned into a brilliant display of color corresponding to the heat given off by them. "Let's see, radio…" Then the background turned purple and was full of static. "I may have to re-adjust that one." VV said as he returned to the optical scanner (normal view). "Doppler? I have Doppler scan and radar?" VV switched to this scanner and there was just a green background with some flashes of blue and red. "Someone move forward and at the same time someone back up." VV said as he overlaid the optical picture over the Doppler scan. Wolo moved forward and Modok backed up. As they did that, Wolo turned different shades of blue while Modok turned different shades of red. "Now this is going to be a useful utility." VV said as the whole group started to move, turning different colors. Then VV moved forward and backward as everyone turned different shades of blue and then red. "Now watch this." VV said as the green screen switched to a brownish screen. Patches of blue soon flecked the brown screen. One patch of blue looked a lot like the moat in front of the castle. Green patches then popped up in small areas of the map. "I'd say the forecast for today would be partly cloudy with a 30 percent chance of rain. The current temperature is about 62 degrees. The dewpoint is 51, and the barometer is holding at 29.21 millibars. There is no wind, but then again, I'm inside, so this report is not really important, is it?" VV announced to the room like the typical weatherman. "You can't use a Doppler radar indoors." Chip retorted. "But I can use the castle sensors to tell me the information I need." VV replied quickly. "Cool." Pidge responded as he looked at the current data on the screen. Vehicle Voltron checked a few more sensors including broadband, microwave, and nuclear radiation.
Just as VV was resetting the castle viewer to normal, Lion Voltron appeared on the control room viewer.
"Voltron to castle control, The enemy had landed. And I am detecting an activation carrier right next to the castle." LV said. VV stood there a moment as he adjusted his broadband sensors to pick up the signal. "It's the robot volume." VV confirmed. "I assume it has been repaired fully?"
"VV! It is nice to see you up and running finally." LV replied noticeably. preoccupied with the current battle.
"We will have to get the sword and the boot block to the robot." Cliff spoke up to the rest of the team, "Are we ready to go?"
"Ready!" the group shouted together.
"But, who will we get to fly the command shuttle, Jeff is still confined to the infirmary." Lisa asked with concern.
"She's got a good point there, I can't access or control the individual ships when they are separate." VV added with more concern.
"Hmmm… It seems we have another problem." Cliff conjectured amongst the obvious evidence. "I guess I can fly the command shuttle, we can loose one of the hands if need be."
"Wait a minute!" Cinda spoke, "Haven't we flown without the head before?"
"Yes, we have, can't we just loose the head?" Rocky asked. VV's face contorted into an odd expression of fear and disgust as the force talks about VV's dismemberment.
"Well that sounds very comforting, knowing that you may loose a hand, or your head." LV said to VV in a half laugh. VV just then realized that he was capable of getting nausea.
"LV? Aren't you in the middle of a battle?" VV asked.
"Why yes." LV replied in surprise. "How did you know?"
"The main fleet is arriving." VV replied. "I suggest you keep your mind on the battle. I'll be out as soon as we figure this problem out."
"Right." LV said and the viewer went blank.
This conversation about which vehicle should be grounded continued into the subject of the importance of the vehicles, whichever one was least important would be grounded.
"I say we loose one of the hands." Zandee said. "Well one thing is for sure, none of the Sea Team vehicles can be omitted." Krik added. The argument became a little heated. People in the group were speaking louder and getting angrier, witty remarks began flying to and fro amongst the group.
"Why don't we just loose the head and settle it that way." Rocky asked.
"I just told you, VV has changed, and those changes may require the head." Cliff repeated annoyedly to Rocky for about the third time. VV was getting a little steamed at this argument and decided to stop it.
"Quiet!" VV shouted, but to no avail.
"QUIET!" VV shouted again, but the group still argued.
"SHUT UP!" VV shouted, for the third and final time. The room went silent. Everyone looked at VV who was staring down upon the group angrily. "Look, it is obviously CLEAR that we need another person to take Jeff's place." VV started. "There are plenty of people on the now defunct Explorer who would be dying to have a chance to take it. Am I right?"
The Vehicle Voltron Force all nodded in unison. "Good! Then we just draft someone from there." VV finished.
"The position's been filled." A voice shouted from the Control Room entrance.
Everyone turned around to see Jeff painfully hobbling into the Control room on a pair of crutches.
"Jeff?" Half of the VV force shouted as they ran to help him.
"Jeff, surely you aren't going to fly the Command Shuttle in your condition. You can barely walk." Krik reminded.
"I wish I could, but I can't. I have been grounded by order of the Commander." Jeff replied.
"So who is going to fly the Command Shuttle then?" Hutch asked.
"The person who grounded him." Another familiar voice appeared in the Control Room entrance. The VV Force looked up to see Commander Hawkins walking in.
"Consider this an examination on how you adjust to new technology. The Commander will be grading you. You pass, you continue in the Voltron Force, you fail… and well… lets just say you will be on repair duty until we return to the Garrison… and that is if we make it." Jeff replied with a sly grin.
"What?" Cliff shouted in disbelief. "You can't…"
"He did." Hawkins replied bluntly.
"You're despicable, I hate you!" Lisa shouted gladly as she ran up to Jeff and hugged him.
Jeff winced in pain as he was moved on his crutches by Lisa's hug. "Okay! Okay! I'm sorry! You don't have to kill me!" Jeff shouted as the pain shot up his leg. The VV Force laughed.
"Alright lets get everyone together." Hawkins started barking orders." Hawkins continued. "We will need them to help fend off the approaching robeasts and get VV's brain back into his head."
"I couldn't agree with you more." VV said wholeheartedly.

Zelia sat in the captain's chair that Zarkon once sat in. She now grew conscious of what was happening. They had been or were frozen in time. Zelia felt the obvious feeling of "missing time." The planet had rotated quite a bit from what the ship's sensors were telling.
"We must start the attack now!" Zelia thought to herself. "The Raccenscari high command says so."
Zelia tried to stretch her powers of clairvoyance to the planet. She immediately found Haggar, who was the one who applied the frozen time spell. But her worst fears had also come true. Voltron, as they called them, had been revived along with the other robotic life force. The "lion bot," however, was not of Raccenscari origin. "We must retrieve the vehicle bot and bring him back to Raccenscar. He must be punished for his traitorous acts." Zelia seethed, she had no idea that she had said this out loud. Some of Zarkon's robot soldiers looked at each other wondering about what she had said.
Zelia wondered about her assignment to retrieve the robot. "They never said to bring him back, alive," and a smile crossed her face.
"We must attack now!" Zelia commanded harshly. "The Vehicle Robot must be destroyed at all costs!"
And the large attack flagships soon started spewing forth many small fighter ships, and the 24 robeasts.
Zelia sat there for a while watching the viewer fill up with the images of the small attack fighters and the 24 robeasts descending to Arus. Then she was startled by the formation of a dark cloud in front of her.
"Oh, Yurak. You startled me." Zelia said somewhat hurtfully. "Did you dispose of the windbag?"
"Of course." Yurak grinned. "He blew up like a water balloon."
"Good." Zelia praised. "And you are just in time to see the robeasts attack on the planet Arus."
"Shall I go with them Zelia?" Yurak asked as he appeared in the cloud.
"No Yurak, you stay behind." Zelia spoke calmly, "If all else fails, you will be of use to me as a last resort."
"Understood." Yurak confirmed to her almost robot-like and disappeared.
"This Haggar is a high risk to this mission, the longer she is alive the more she will be able to help the enemy." Zelia thought, "She has already repaired the robot exo-skeleton." Zelia reflected briefly on the battle at hand.
"I will destroy her myself," she said and then paused.
"I like having control." Zelia laughed softly and slightly maniacally.

The Vehicle Voltron force immediately sprung into action and got into their ships. A glider containing the large boot block that held the alien life known as 'Vehicle Voltron' inside was operated by a castle maintenance person. All the way to the robot, the boot block was connected to an extra battery on the glider. The battery did not provide enough power to keep VV active, but it did keep him alive while in a powersave mode. The sword would disappear and the energy returned when the robot reactivated. Upon arrival, Haggar was stumbling towards them.
"Hurry you haven't much time, she has started the attack!"
"Who is 'she?' I thought this was Zarkon's work?" Commander Hawkins asked while getting off the transport.
"No, this time it is a completely different being behind all of this. Zarkon and Yurak are mere pawns." Haggar confirmed weakly.
Hawkins turned to the rest of the Vehicle Voltron Force quickly. "We don't have much time, we have to get Vehicle Voltron re-installed now." Just as he completed his sentence, a hail of laser fire came from the sky.
"Blimey! Looks like we have NO time!" Cliff shouted as he dodged the bolts of lazon raining upon the group. Immediately the Lion Voltron force flew over them countering the attack.
"Let's get moving! The sooner we are up there the sooner we end this." Hawkins shouted to the group. Immediately, the group started untying the boot block from the cargo pad of the transport and everyone pitched in to help move it. Unfortunately, when the group reached the robot. They found that getting the boot block into the command shuttle was an impossible task.
"This does not look good at all." Krik reflected grimly.
"I wish we had one of the lions here to help, but they seem to be busy holding off the attack." Tangor noticed. "How are we going to get this huge thing, up there?"
"I will use my magic to get it up there." Haggar stumbled forward.
"What? We can't let you do that." Hutch replied to her as if she were crazy. "It already looks like you have used too much of your magic to repair Voltron."
"I have to, there is no other way." Haggar replied. "I appreciate your concern but you must let me help you."
"We can get one of the lions to help us…" Cliff started, but before he could finish Haggar walked up to the boot block and started chanting.
"No, she can't…" Cliff said, but the commander held him back.
"Let her go." Hawkins interrupted. "She's right. Look over there." Hawkins pointed to the 24 robeasts that were now flying towards the battle. "They are too swamped to be able to help us, if we take away one of them, they won't be able to form Voltron." Hawkins continued. "Haggar is the only one who is capable now."
The boot block began to glow and rise into the air. A gate on the command shuttle opened and the boot block was slowly guided into the compartment. When the boot block cleared the gate, Haggar collapsed. Cliff, Lisa, Ginger, Krik and Chip went over to her immediately.
"Get going, you must help the lions." Haggar said weakly.
"But what about you?" Chip asked with growing concern as several lazon bolts cascaded around the area.
"You must go! I will be fine." Haggar snapped, "You haven't much time, and I can't explain it to you, but the longer you are on the ground the worse your chances of winning this battle."
"How do you…" Cliff started but was interrupted.
"Come on!" Hawkins shouted, "The 24 robeasts are almost on top of us!"

Meanwhile in the air, the lions are trying hard to keep the attack ships away from Vehicle Voltron as they replace the boot block.
"Hey Keith, it looks like we've got more company." Pidge said as his scanners detected the 24 robeasts coming within sensor range. "We've got to form Voltron."
"We can't, there are too many attack ships to fend off from Vehicle Voltron, if we form Voltron now we leave them unprotected." Keith replied.
"But we don't stand a chance against all those robeasts with just the lions!" Lance shouted. "Are you crazy?"
"When they get Vehicle Voltron in the air, we will be able to form Voltron. Until then, we are on defensive duties." Keith commanded. The lions deftly dodge incoming lazon bolts and other offensive fire.
"I hope the Vehicle Voltron Force gets off the ground quick." Keith thought grimly to himself, "I don't know how long we can keep this defense up."

Back on the ground the pilots got into their vehicles except for Commander Hawkins. He had gotten on the nose cone to close the gate to the compartment that held the boot block. Haggar was also still outside. She was able to get up and seek shelter behind a nearby rock. She lay there and rested anxiously waiting for the robot to activate. Commander Hawkins closed the gate and slid his way back into the cockpit of the command shuttle.
"Okay Vehicle Voltron, nap time is over." Hawkins said as he pushed a sequence of buttons on the control console. Immediately, the robots systems went online one by one as the boot block came out of standby.

VV was a little light headed at first because he was not used to being in the robot volume for a while. But his head soon cleared and the systems checked out okay.
"VV are you done activating yet?" Hutch yelled, "We don't have all day!"
"Anymore restarts and I may have to do some serious file restructuring." VV replied still a little woozy.
"Well, those robeasts look like they aren't going to wait for you!" Krik said as his scanner went online only to see a robeast heading straight for them.
VV was just able to roll out of the way as the robeast crashed to the ground at a steep angle.
"Yikes, that had to hurt!" VV said as he looked at the robeast with his head stuck in the ground.
"LV! Form up and let's kick some robeast!" VV said through direct communication.
"It's about time!" LV said with relief. "Okay, Keith! You know the drill!"
"All right!" The LVF shouted.
"Ready to form Voltron!" Keith shouted as he began the pre-formation sequence and commands.
"Activate interlock… dynatherms connected… infracells up… megathrusters are go!" Keith shouted.
"LET'S GO VOLTRON FORCE!" They all shouted in unison.
The lions flew to the merging point in their usual pattern, and LV began to form, in the meantime VV noticed a bright light in the corner of his scanner. The scanner showed the area in which Haggar was hiding. Another female was with her, unfortunately she did not look like she was there to help her.
"Look out!" Ginger shouted shrilly. VV noticed a group of three robeasts heading straight for him for the tackle. VV dodged quickly but the robeast who had its head in the ground had freed itself and was attacking VV from behind with a lazon mace. The mace struck VV in the back and he was falling forward. LV had just finished forming and was taking on another 4 robeasts. There were 2 other robeasts standing there doing nothing while 14 were reeking havoc on the planet.
"LV! I think we might be overmatched!" VV said stating the obvious as he crashed to the ground.
"NO! What made you think that?" LV replied snidely struggling with the other 4 robeasts.
"SPINNING LASER BLADES!" VV commanded out loud. In a few short moments VV let the laser blades fly. Both of them were thrown forward but one of them curved in and re-directed itself towards him.
"BUH!" VV blurted as he ducked the spinning laser blade. It made immediate contact with another robeast that was heading toward him from behind. The other laser blade shaved off the arm of one of the robeasts LV was fighting.
Hawkins noticed the laser blades coming back to VV for re-cast. "Heads up VV!"
Unconsciously, VV held one arm out to the side and the other he put behind his back, both laser blades were caught at the same time.
LV had freed himself from the grip of the robeasts after VV had distracted them.
"Nice toss VV!" LV praised.
"It's all in the wrist." VV replied as he re-cast the spinning laser blades. "You'll have to watch out though…" VV said as the spinning laser blades circled and then hit their targets. Upon return, one of the spinning laser blades nearly hit LV. "…They seem to have a mind of their own!"
"They aren't doing much damage though." LV confirmed as he dodged a robeast about to tackle him.
VV re-cast the laser blades again and one of them hit their target for the third time. The robeast exploded. The other laser blade hit another robeast but unfortunately did not do any damage.
"One down, 23 to go." VV said grimly. "I wish I had more laser blades."
"Hey, VV got a robeast!" Pidge shouted with amazement.
"Yeah but it took to long to destroy it." Keith confirmed, "Let's show them how it's really done, LV!"
"Right!" LV said. "FORM BLAZING SWORD!"
"It's time to go to school VV." LV said as he began a sword fight with one of the robeasts.
"Oh, that?" VV replied and then clashed the spinning laser blades together. "FORM BLAZING SWORD!" Then VV immediately started another battle with another robeast.
"I can do that too." VV replied smartly. "It's ginsu time!" VV said as he had already sliced a robeast 4 times.
"VV, I have a question about your state of mind,…" LV replied as he shot VV an odd look and slew another robeast.
"So do I." Hawkins quipped.
"Hey! I'm saving the day, aren't I?" VV replied and then looked around only to find no robeast remains.
"Uh, where's the robeast I just ginsued?" VV asked out loud.
"How many robeasts are left?" LV asked VV.
"My scanners are showing 22 left." VV replied.
"I thought this task was going to be tougher." LV wondered as he noticed the robeasts weak efforts at attacking them.
"I can't find any robeast remains.'" VV mentioned.
"Ugh! Don't be a weird robot!" LV quipped.
"No, I'm serious! There should be scrap metal and gadgetry." "I see nothing." VV said wondering about the situation.
The other 20 robeasts were gathering around both Voltrons in a circle readying themselves for another attack.
"I don't like this situation LV." VV conjectured. "Something's wrong."
"It does seem that we have a little math problem here..." LV continued.
All of a sudden Lisa gasped. "LOOK!" Lisa shouted referring to the 20 robeasts surrounding them.
"They're not attacking!" Modok noticed.
"Hey, is it my imagination, or do those robeasts look a lot meaner than before?" Lance pointed out.
"What is going on?" LV wondered as he saw the robeasts morph into more hideous versions of themselves.
"It is as if they are getting more power from somewhere." Krik conjectured as wisely as he could while watching the situation.
"There seems to be a large energy 'cloud' around this area." Chip added as he looked through the electromagnetic scanners. VV switched his view to the electromagnetic scanner and noticed the bright orange blobs of energy floating toward the robeasts.
"What are those… blobs?" VV asked.

Meanwhile around the rock that Haggar was hiding behind while the battle began to slow, Haggar noticed a form off to her left. She quickly turned and noticed that this form, who looked like another witch was casting a spell on the remaining robeasts. "You!" Haggar said to the being that appeared before her, "You are responsible for this!"
"Yes Haggar, I am." Zelia answered. "And you will no longer be in my way of letting me finish what I had started." Zelia summoned up some energy and shot a bolt of lightning at Haggar. Haggar dodged but the bolt hit the rock and destroyed it, sending fragments at her. She was knocked to the ground by the flying rock fragments. .
"So what if I was?" Haggar shot back nonchalantly.
"I will destroy you and the Vehicle robot." Zelia replied. "Then the mission will have been complete."
"You can try, but you will never destroy Vehicle Voltron!" Haggar shouted at her. "I will make sure of it." Haggar then cast an energy bolt from her staff at Zelia but she missed.
"So that is what he refers to himself as." Zelia said. "That is no excuse for treason."
"Treason?" Haggar asked. "What are you talking about."
"It is not of your concern." Zelia replied. "I will destroy you and your efforts to stop this mission."
Haggar stared at Zelia for a while. Zelia quickly knocked Haggar to the ground with another energy bolt.
"Who are you?" Haggar asked.
"I am Zelia." She stated defiantly. "I was sent by my planet to destroy the traitor."
"You mean Vehicle Voltron?" Haggar asked wondering what she was talking about.
"You may know him as Vehicle Voltron, but I knew him long before he willfully revolted against the R'accenscarri military and the emperor.
"R'accesnscarri, is that who you are?" Haggar asked.
"Not just any R'accenscarri," Zelia smirked evilly. "I am only one of four sent to destroy the traitor. I am the second high commander of the military forces."
"That high up?" Haggar quipped looking weakly impressed.
"Shut up!" Zelia spat, "It is time for you to die."
"Not just yet," Haggar replied as she dodged another energy bolt.

Vehicle Voltron began to notice electromagnetic changes in the robeasts as the orange blobs collected upon them. VV made more observations and found that the energy blobs were coming from the areas where the robeasts were disabled there was less energy than before.
"The robeasts are being fed energy from the other robeasts." VV reported.
"Look! The robeasts are combining together!" Pidge noticed as he saw the number of robeasts shrink two by two morphing into one. The number of robeasts went from twenty to ten and then from ten to five. With both combinations creating a larger more destructive and meaner looking robeast. Then the five robeasts went on a vicious attack two upon Lion Voltron and three upon Vehicle Voltron.

"Look out!" Hawkins warned, "We've got trouble!"
LV ducked and dodged the many laser, fist, and kick attacks brought on by the two robeasts. LV swung the blazing sword but with a shock, it bounced back at him. LV was soon having a sword fight with the two robeasts, all the swings making loud clanging as sword clashed with sword.
LV fought back as best as he could against the two robeasts, but then LV made a mistake and one of the robeasts jumped behind him and hit him with a lazon missile. LV was knocked to the ground. Both robeasts then began to beat upon LV severely. LV tried more weapons but they did not seem to be working.
VV ducked the first robeast as it lunged at him, but as the first robeast attacked high, the second one attacked low. The VV Force braced for impact as the second and third robeasts piled upon VV like a tackle stack in football. VV's sword was sent flying off on some unknown direction and then the sword disappeared. Both Voltrons desperately tried to wrestle themselves free, but the robeasts were too powerful. LV and VV were loosing valuable energy as they tried to break free and fend off they brutal attack from the robeasts.
"Keith! Our shielding is down 50 percent, we won't last long unless we get out of this!" Allura yelled over all the noise from weapons fire and pounding. The robeasts pounding upon VV had different ideas, they tried to hyperextend the joints of the robot breaking the interlocks that held VV together. VV was not enjoying the electrical overload coming from each joint before it snapped. The robeasts were literally taking VV apart piece by piece, starting with his legs. VV had lost his shields during the first impact with one of the robeasts.

Zelia had enough of all of the cat and mouse games with Haggar. Haggar in her youthful form had proven that she was too fast for her. Zelia had to think of a better way to end all of this inconvenience.
Zelia cast one more bolt of energy at Haggar, Haggar dodged but the bolt was reflected again and impacted with Haggar into her back. Haggar fell to the ground paralyzed. Zelia walked up to Haggar and lowered her staff in Haggar's face.

Lion Voltron had suffered heavy damage from the onslaught of two of the five super-robeasts that Zelia created. Vehicle Voltron was also not faring well after one of the robeasts self-destructed at point blank range.
"Keith, I'm not getting any readings from Vehicle Voltron Force." Allura notified. "I'm afraid we might be the only ones left."
"Please don't tell me these things, Allura." Keith grumbled in reply.
"Unfortunately, I think she's right, VV's login went dead a few minutes ago."
"We can't care about them now." Lance shouted. "We have our own problems."
LV searched for his sword and noticed that it lay about 500 ft away from him. LV had used about all the weapons he had that could get him out of the pinned position. Eye Beam, Electroforce Cross, Wing Beam, and etc. Nothing had worked.
"It is no use!" LV replied solemnly "None of my weapons have any effect on them."
One of the robeasts forms an axe and then raises it above its head, prone for the destruction of Lion Voltron.
The other robeast was standing over VV, not doing anything at the moment, as if the robeast thought VV was "playing dead."
Commander Hawkins was looking at a grim situation on his monitors.
