There's No Business Like Shogun Business

Terran and the kids runs from the Papa bear and the bears, but the bears ran passed them as Terran and the kids saw them chasing the Alpha Gang.

"Bear, bear, bear, bear, bear, bear…!" They shrieked.

Terran and the kids watched them, bewildered.

"Looks like we're safe." Max said.

"What was that about?" Terran asked, confused.

"Those bears seem to like Alpha Gang, especially the old lady." Rex said.

Ursula then stopped while irking. "I can't bear it when someone calls me old lady!"

"You'll have to bear it this time, Ursula!" Ed said as he and Zander turned back.

"'Cause we can't bear the thought of being eaten by bears!" Zander said as they dragged her along.

As they keep running by the bears, Zoe then took off.

"Where's Zoe off to?" Max wondered.

"Hey, Zoe!" Terran said as they ran after her.

Zoe tripped on the ground.

"Zoe, why'd you run off? I mean, what's the hurry?" He asked, helping her up.

"Because, my dad might be leading the Shogun's army into giant battle right now." She told them.

"What are you talking about?" Max questioned.

"The Shogun and my dad looks exactly alike, and that Hanzo guy said something about a shogun look-alike who was about to lead their army into war."

"Yeah, but our parents are being held captive by the Space Pirates."

"Maybe Zoe's dad escaped somehow?" Rex said.

"I know it's him, Max!" Zoe said.

"Well if he escaped, then maybe our parents did too, Rex." Max said.

"Maybe. Let me check the TPS." Rex checked his TPS. "Nope. I'm afraid I'm not getting any kind of signal that could help us find them but that doesn't mean that this guy isn't Zoe's dad. I say we head to this battle."

"Yeah, besides, that's where the Shogun and Hanzo are headed, and they have the Cosmos Stone!" Max said.

"Let's go!" They said.

In the forest, Gabbro fluttering around the forest, looking for Hanzo and Tokugawa.

"Guy who stole the Cosmos Stone! Come out, come out, wherever you are…!" He called.

As he flew by, Gabbro failed to noticed the bump on the tree, revealing that Hanzo and Tokugawa is hiding behind the camouflage sheet.

"There, the creature has passed us." Hanzo said. "We should be safe now."

He then noticed Shogun is whimpering in fear.

"What's the matter?"

"I still feel safer as a tree!" Tokugawa said before they covered themselves.

"Please be strong, my Shogun!"

"But there are monsters and ninjas hunting me! Can't we be a tree a little longer?"

"Our soldiers need you!"

"Let go of me! Trees don't move like this!" He demanded as they rustled. "You'll give us away, stop!"

"I'm done pretending to be a tree with you!"

"Fine!" Tokugawa leaps out and hide with the tree. "Then I'll just be a tree by myself!"

"Tokugawa! Please… you can't keep hiding from your troubles like this!" Hanzo said, "And no offense, but your tree impression really needs some work."

"I'd argue that with you, but trees don't talk."

"We must go now, Shogun."

"But first, you need to apologize. You know I'm very sensitive to my environment and subject to panic and anxiety."

"You're right. Please forgive my insensitivity and now let us leave so that we can get to the battlefield and help our men."

"Fine, but on one condition." Tokugawa requested.

Hanzo knelt to give him the piggy back ride.

"Piggy back ride?"

Tokugawa giggled and hop on his back before heading to the Mikatagahara.

"Say, Hanzo, you know that young girl I was with?" Tokugawa asked, "Well, she seems to think this look-alike of me that you put in my place might be her father, so I was thinking maybe a nice thing to do would be to go back and bring her and her friends with us."

"The field of battle is no battle is no place for children." Hanzo said,

"I know. But what if this guy is her father?"

"We have more urgent matters to worry about. Our forces have met Takeda's in Mikatagahara. You must give them real leadership or they will lose the fight."

"Yes, yes, I know, Hanzo, but you see, it's just that…"

Hanzo paused as he sense that they were being followed.

"Hey, why'd we stop?"

"Be quiet!" Hanzo then took cover quickly.

Nearby the bush, Ace looks around as he sensed the white Cosmos Stone and approached the rock. He took off, revealing to be the camouflage as well.

"What the…?!"

"Look!" Max said as they found them.

"It's the Shogun!" Zoe said.

"Hanzo and I were just looking for you, kids, weren't we, Hanzo?" Tokugawa said.

"Uh?" Hanzo said, puzzled.

"And we were just looking for the battle you guys spoke of." She said, "The one Hanzo said your look-alike was at."

"What is the whole story with this look-alike, Hanzo? Who is he? Where did you find him?" Tokugawa asked. "Could he be this girl's father?"

"In truth, I don't know much about the man except that he looks like you and carries a big spear he says he uses for helping animals. And when I say big, I mean really big." Hanzo described.

"That sounds like my dad's needle!" Zoe gasped. "It's him!"

"So Dr. Drake did escape." Terran said.

"Where'd you find him? Is he okay? Was my mom with him?"

"What about our parents? Were they there?" Max asked.

"Tell us everything." Rex said.

"I'm afraid the look-alike was by himself when I found him." Hanzo replied. "No one was with him."

"So then, your dad must be the only one who escaped." Max said to Zoe.

"Or maybe my mom and your parents were hiding nearby and my dad was out looking for help or something!" Zoe said.

"Yeah, maybe so!"

"This could be the big break that we've been waiting for." Rex said.

"Oh yeah!"

"Shogun, sir, please take us to this battle!" Zoe demanded.

"These children not only helped me find the gemstones, but they protected me in several battles with Takeda's ninjas." Tokugawa told him. "They're coming with us. No more arguments."

"Understood." Hanzo said before carrying the Shogun. "Alright, we'll be moving fast, so try to keep up."

He then ran off.

"Whoa, wait up!" Max said as they tried to keep up with them.

"It's gonna be tough getting the Cosmos Stone from this guy." Rex said.

"Yeah, I'm having a hard enough time just keeping up with him!" Zoe said.

"He's giving a piggy back ride." Max noted. "No way he can keep up this pace!"

"In that case, let us keep up with him!" Terran said. "Zoe, on my back!"

Before they said, Terran puts Zoe on his back and carries Max and Rex under his arms as he runs. As they run, Hanzo stops in the tracks.

"Is something wrong, Hanzo?" Tokugawa asked.

He then heard a faint shouting and yelling, coming from the battlefield.

"Oh, now I hear it, the sounds of battle."

Terran then came here with the kids on him. "We're here, Hanzo. Why'd you stop?"

"Don't you hear that fighting, kids?" Shogun asked. "The battlefield is just beyond that bamboo forest."

"Footsteps are approaching!" Hanzo alerted. "Look out!"

Hanzo jumped before the shuriken was thrown at him as Terran and the kids yelped. Takeda's ninjas and Shear rushed passed them as they went after Tokugawa and Hanzo.

"Shear?!" They said.

"They're after the Shogun and Hanzo!" Terran said.

Hanzo jumps on the tree and over to the next tree as the ninjas chased them.

"I've come to take the legendary gemstone in the name of Master Takeda!" Ofuu demanded.

Hanzo rebound the tree and fights back with a sword as Tokugawa holds on to him.

"I'm a tree, I'm a tree, I'm a tree!" Tokugawa panicked.

Shear threw her bladed boomerang as them, but missed when Hanzo jumps to his right. Hanzo parried his sword against the ninja before jumping back and dodged the incoming barrage of shuriken. The bladed boomerang was thrown and Hanzo quickly ducked while Tokugawa shrieked in fear. The bladed boomerang came back and cuts the tree branch as Hanzo jumps away.

"I'm not a tree!" Tokugawa panicked while looking back to see the ninjas is behind them.

"He's an awesome fighter, but he's outnumbered." Zoe said, concerned.

"Then what do you say we even things up a bit?" Max said, turning Chomp into a card.

"Good idea. Ready, Ace?" Rex said, turning Ace into a card.

"Go help them, Wisp." Terran said, turns Wisp into a card.

"Dino Slash!" They slashed their cards on their Dino Bracers/Wrist Controller, summoning their dinosaurs in full-size.

"Take on those ninjas!" Max told them.

"Those ninjas have lots of sharp things, we should add some armor." Rex said.

"Oh yeah. Good point."

They pulled out their boosters.

"Element Booster! DinoTector, on!" They plugged their boosters on their Dino Bracers/Wrist Controller, equipping their dinosaurs with respective element armors.

Wisp, Chomp, and Ace charged towards the ninjas, who then noticed them coming for them.

"Look! Behind us!"

They threw their shurikens at them, but they bounced off the armor. They engaged fighting them with swords and threw their smoke bombs at them. Ace swings his tail to fend them into a tree. Chomp rams the base of a tree their in. Wisp reaches them with his long neck to bite them which they dodged him.

"This might be our chance to escape." Tokugawa said.

"Right." Hanzo said.

"Guys!" They turned to Max, who points the way. "This way! Come on!"

Terran and the kids runs to the battlefield as Hanzo and Tokugawa follows them. Their dinosaurs then follows them as the ninjas jumps to the ground.

"Shear, release your monsters!" Ofuu ordered.

Shear swipe the card on her neck plate, summoning Atrociraptors and equipping them with Spectral Armor.

"Not those guys again!" Terran said.

"Guess Shear is still on their side and she just released four Atrociraptors!" Max exclaimed.

"Ace, watch out!" Rex shouted.

Chomp, Ace, and Wisp turns around and engaged fighting with Atrociraptors. One dodges around Chomp while another climbs onto Ace. Wisp tries stomping one as the other one went after the group.

"Take the Shogun to safety, I'll deal with these beasts!" Hanzo said setting Shogun down and engaged fighting them.

"Come on! This way, Shogun!" Zoe said, taking Tokugawa to the Migatagahara.

Hanzo engaged fighting the white with grey stripes Atrociraptor until it knocked him down to the ground. Chomp came hit it away from Hanzo.

"Thanks for the help." He said.

Running through the bamboo forest, They saw the troops is being pushed back by Takeda's army.

"Oh no! This is not good at all." Tokugawa said, "My troops are being trounced by Takeda's forces!"

"If your troops are being trounced, what's happening to my dad?!" Zoe said, worried about her father.


Meanwhile, the troops rested at the camp as Dr. Drake becomes uneased about the Tokugawa is losing the battle.

"Shogun!" Dr. Drake was snapped from his thought. "Our western forces are being pushed back!"

"Oh no! well, at least we're okay to the east, right?" He said.

"Troops on horseback have broken through our Eastern lines." The soldiers reported. "They're headed this way right now."

Dr. Drake yelped. 'This is bad. If things keep going like this, I'm doomed. We're all doomed! I'm not even supposed to be here! Maybe if I can sneak while they're busy looking serious.' He then sneak away.

"Where are you going, Shogun?"

Dr. Drake as he was caught sneaking out through the tent by the generals.

"Who? Me? Oh, I was just going to check on our forces to the south." He said, "You know…"

"But we don't have any forces to the south, Shogun." He stopped him. "In fact, there's no threat of danger down there."

"All the more reason for me to go. You know, to keep it that way!" Dr. Drake said as he was taken back to the seat.


Upon from the battlefield, Gabbro was watching the battle from the sky after unable to find the Cosmos Stone before Foolscap arrived.

"Watching all the little ants fight over who get s the anthill?" Foolscap asked, sarcastically.

"Huh? Those aren't ants. Those are people." Gabbro said.

"It's a figure of speech, you dolt."

"I can't even tell what they're fighting over or who is winning."

"Go red! Go white! Who cares?" He then asked. "What's the story with Cosmos Stone and with Shear?"

"One of the humans got away with the stone and well, as far as Shear goes, there just hasn't been any sign of her at all." Gabbro said.

"Oh yeah? Then what do you call that, ya numbskull?" Foolscap noticed the battle with Chomp, Ace, Wisp, and the Atrociraptors before flew over there. "Come on!"


Back with the group, they watched the Tokugawa army and Takeda's army battled.

"Where would you normally be during a battle?" Zoe asked.

"In the commander's tent, at the back of the lines." Shogun said.

"Do you think that's where your dad is?" Max asked.

"Hope so!"

They begin running to the battle, but Takeda's ninjas blocked their way.

"Stop right there, Shogun!" Ofuu said.

"Seeing as how paralyzed with fear, okay." Tokugawa said.

"Don't worry, Shogun, I'll take care of them!" Zoe said, turning Paris into a card. "Dino Slash!" Zoe slashed the card on her Dino Bracer. "Spring up, Parasaurolophus!"

Paris is summoned in full-size Parasaurolophus.

Zoe pulls out the booster. "DinoTector, on!" She plugs the booster on her Dino Bracer, equipping her with element armor.

"Ninja, Constellation Attack!" Ofuu ordered.

"Not this time. Deinonychus, Activated!" Terran slashed the card, summoning the trio of Deinonychus. "Back up with Paris and hold them off."

The Deinonychus screeched before they charged and assist Paris while the ninjas engages fighting them. The group then spotted Gabbro and Foolscap flew towards them.

"Forget those ninjas, you guys, we've got bigger problems!" Max said.

"You got that right, kid, and they're about to get even bigger still, right Gabbro?" Foolscap sneered.

"Really? Bigger how? I stopped growing years ago!" Gabbro said.

"I meant our dinos, dummy! Come out, Tuojiangosaurus!" Foolscap swipe the card on his head plate.

"Oh right! Einiosaurus!" Gabbro swipe the card on his chest plate.

They summoned Tuojiangosaurus and Einiosaurus.

"When do we run screaming?" Tokugawa asked.

"It's Spectral Armor time!" They swipe the cards.

"Jinx! I can talk!" Foolscap said.

"I can talk just fine!" Gabbro said.

The two dinosaurs was equipped with Spectral Armor.

"Uh, about that whole run screaming thing?" Zoe mentioned.

Before they said anything, the group run screaming while being chased by two armored dinosaurs as they ran towards the Takeda's army.

"Monsters!"

"Coming this way!"

They begin to flee as the group runs to the battlefield.

"Chomp, help us! Now!" Max yelled.

"Ace!" Rex yelled.

"Come on, Paris! Hurry!" Zoe cried.

"A little help here, Wisp!" Terran shouted.


Their dinosaurs heard their owner's cries and abandoned the battle to protect them.

"The beast is retreating!" Ofuu said, "Now let's see to Hanzo!"

The ninjas then engaged fighting Hanzo with Atrociraptors, who they engaged fighting the Deinonychus. The ninjas threw their smoke bombs and shuriken at him, who dodged them.


Chomp and Einiosaurus headbutt before Chomp dodges a tail and shoulders it away before Wisp bashed it away while Tuojiangosaurus facing Ace and dodging Paris as the group hid in the bushes.

"Zoe, you and the Shogun go to the command tent and find your dad." Max told her.

"We'll try and hold off the others." Rex said.

"Be careful." Zoe said before taking Tokugawa along. "Come with me."

"Looks like we're behind the enemy lines." Shogun said, noticed the Takeda's army. "Those are Takeda's forces. We'll have to find a way to slip past them without letting them see us."


In the bamboo forest, Hanzo keeps dodging them and the Atrociraptors until one ninja sliced the satchel as the palette falls off.

"The gemstone!" Ofuu tries to grab it, but Hanzo quickly took it before she grabs it and puts in his shirt and ran off with the Deinonychus.

"Hanzo's got the gemstone, don't let him get away!"

The ninjas and dinosaurs went after him.


"How are we going to sneak past all of these guys?" Zoe asked.

The commander went to them.

"You there, soldier, why aren't you advancing?"

"Flying demons are in the way, sir."

"Flying demons? There's no such thing." He then noticed Foolscap and Gabbro. "Okay, I stand corrected. Unleash your arrows, shoot the demons down!"

The Takeda's army shoots their arrows at them.

"Looks like the little ants are picking a fight with us now." Foolscap said.

"Yeah, what do you think we should do about?" Gabbro said.

"What else? We'll just squash them like the bugs they are! Go, Quake Saber!" He swiped the move card.

Tuojiangosaurus used the Quake Saber move and swipes them off with its tail, scattering the army away.

"Okay, come on!" Zoe said, seizing their chance. "Now's our chance."

Before they head to the tent, Gabbro swoops in, blocking their way.

"All right, no more trying to run away. Gimme that Cosmo Stone!"

"We're not gonna give you anything!" Tokugawa said.

"Help us, Paris! We need you!" Zoe cried.

As Gabbro approached them, Paris came and knocked him away, passed the tree line.

"Looks like it's time I rattled my Quake Saber for someone else now! Here goes!" Foolscap swipe the move card again.

Tuojiangosaurus prepared using the Quake Saber move again on Paris.

"Green Impulse!" Zoe slashed the move card.

Tupuxuara appeared and bashed Tuojiangosaurus before Paris throws it up and Tupuxuara hits it two times, destroying the Spectral Armor as it falls and Paris knocks it away her tail, defeating it.

Terran launched his grappling hand and claims the Tuojiangosaurus card.

"So you beat my dinosaur, that doesn't mean you've beaten me. Huh?" Foolscap then rammed by Tupuxuara, past the tree line. "Then again, maybe it does!"

"We did it!" Zoe cheered.

"Come on, let's find your father." Tokugawa said.

"All right, Zoe and the Shogun are all clear, Rex!" Max said, but turned to see Hanzo and Deinonychus was being pursued by Takeda's ninjas and Atrociraptors.

"Yeah, too bad we're not through!"

"Quick, you and Terran help Hanzo out and I'll go deal with this Einiosaurus!" Max said.

"You got it!" Rex said.

"Be careful!" Terran said.

"Thunder Driver!" Max slashed the move card.

Chomp uses the Thunder Driver move and defeated Einiosaurus while destroying the Spectral Armor.

"That was great, Chomp!" Max cheered.

"Let's go, Ace! Ninja Attack!" Rex slashed the move card.

"Aurora Wavelength!" Terran activates the move ability.

Ace use the Ninja Attack move while Wisp used the Aurora Wavelength move as they move faster. Hanzo and Takeda's ninjas jumped up and dodged Ace and his clones as they hit Atrociraptors but one managed to evade Ace's attacks and ran pass Wisp before clawing Hanzo, knocking the palette away from his Gi.

"Got it!" Shear took the palette, but Wisp battered the Atrociraptor with his tail and hit Shear.

The Atrociraptor was defeated and Terran launched his grappling hand and claimed Atrociraptor card as Shear hits the ground.

"Are you okay?" Ofuu asked.

Shear groaned. "Where am I?"

"Give that back!" Hanzo demanded as he and Deinonychus ran towards them.

"Come on!"

They took Shear and used the smoke bomb to cover their escape.

"Oh no, Shear's got the Cosmos Stone!" Rex gasped.

"We have to get it back!" Max said.

Suddenly, they turned around to see the Takeda's army is coming.

"No, we have to run!" Rex said.


As the Takeda's army is charging through the Mikatagahara, the soldiers ran to the tent.

"Shogun, the Takeda Forces are headed this way! Shogun!" He finds the Dr. Drake isn't here. "Sir? Where'd he go?" He then looked behind the tent. "Tokugawa?"

He find him getting on the horse.

"Where are you going, sir?"

"I can't stay here. If I stick around, I'll end up prisoner, or worse." Dr. Drake said, "And besides, according to history, Tokugawa escaped, so I have to escape! But before I go, let me leave you with these parting words.."

The arrow was shot in his shoulder pad, making the horse run back to the fortress.

"Your parting words stink!"


Heading through the battlefield and after Terran retrieves the Einiosaurus card, Zoe and Shogun rides on Paris while Rex rides on Ace and Max rides on Chomp. Hanzo and Terran runs besides them as Wisp and Deinonychus is behind them.

"Hey, Rex, when you said that we should run…" Zoe said.

The Takeda's army saw them and retreated as the group heads to the Tokugawa camp.

"I didn't think you meant towards the soldiers!"

"With the calvary we've got, why not?" Rex said.

"Fortune smiles upon us, men! Those monsters are making Takeda's forces flee in terror!"

"Shouldn't we be fleeing in terror, too?"

Shogun laughed as Paris arrived. "What's with those looks, men? You act like you've never seen a guy riding the back of a giant monster before."

"That's our shogun!"

"Tokugawa?!"


At Takeda's tent, the commander reported about the monster attack.

"What?! Are you telling me you retreated like cowards because a couple of monsters showed up?" Takeda said, angrily, "The Takeda Forces are not afraid of monsters. Chased them to their fortress and finish this or you'll really have something to be afraid of!"

"Yes, sir!" The commander left.

The ninjas then arrived. "Master Takeda! The gemstone." She present it to him.

"So this is the stone they say grants the power to rule the world."

As he's about to open the palette, Shear was rubbing her head from the fall.

'Oh, my head… Ever since that fall… everything's starting to come back to me…' She thought as she begins to remember everything while eyeing on the palette. 'Who I am and why I'm here.'


At nighttime in Hamamatsu Fortress, Dr. Drake was riding back to the gate.

"Stop right there! Who are you?" The servant demanded, but realized who it is. "Oh, Shogun, it's you! We weren't expecting you. How goes the battle in Mikatagahara?"

"They're coming! The Takeda Force's are coming!" Dr. Drake said.

"Did you hear what he just said? The enemy army is coming this way. Close the gates immediately!"

"Yes, sir!" They said.

"Wait, no. leave 'em open!" He said.

"What?!"

"You have to trust me! It was a strategy used by Zhuge Liang during the Three Kingdoms period of China, and Tokugawa used it, too, after fleeing to the fortress of Hamamatsu which I've just realized is this fortress, it what happened in history, so it's what has to happen now."

"Are you okay?"

"Yes, it's just that when you're being relentlessly chased by the enemy," Dr. Drake ran up while holding his rear. "You don't really get a chance to make any pit stops. In other words, I need to find a restroom!"

"Dear me. Now that's suffering in the line of duty."

He turns around and yelped when he saw the group and the dinosaurs is heading to the gate while the Takeda Force is behind them.

"Faster! They're gaining!" Max yelled.

"Stop!" He ordered. "Strange… why have they not close their gates?"

They went in the fortress as Wisp squeezes under the gate.

"They reinforced their ranks! We're no match!" Max exclaimed as they care the dinosaurs.

"Don't just stand there, can't you see the Takeda Force are right outside the fortress?" Tokugawa ordered. "Close the gates at once!"

"I don't understand, sir." He said, confused. "Just a minute ago, you told me to leave the gates open."

"Why would I tell you do that? It's a terrible idea." He then realized. "Oh, maybe my look-alike said that, but what could he have been thinking?"

"My dad's here?!" Zoe beamed. "Where is he now?"

"Come on, close the gates, you buffoons!"

"If I may point something out." Hanzo interjected. "The open gates seem to have given the enemy pause."

They looked to see the Takeda's Force is standing outside, thinking they're leading them into a trap.

"That Tokugawa must think we're fools if he thinks we're just gonna charge through an open gate." He said, warily. "He's obviously set a trap of some kind."

"Sir, I bring a message!"

"Yes, what is it?"

"Something has happened to Takeda."


A few hours ago, when Takeda picks up the white Cosmos Stone with his bare hand, it begins to shine brightly as his body is. The fourth Cosmos Stone was dropped to the ground before Shear covers it and claims it.

"Fool. You're not supposed to touch a Cosmos Stone with your bare hands. Everyone knows that." She flew away as the ninjas and generals checked Takeda, who was suffered an unknown effect from Cosmos Stone.

"Is he okay?"

"Sir?"

"Call a doctor!"


Hearing what happened to Takeda, they have no choice but to fall back.

"We must get back there!"

"Look, they're leaving, sir." Hanzo said as the Takeda Force retreated. "Thank goodness, your look-alike left the gate open. It spooked the enemy and gave us a safe haven."

They then turned to Terran and the kids.

"Well, well, well, Zoe, I must reward your father." Tokugawa said, "That crazy, reckless strategy of his seems to have paid off." He turns to his servant. "Tell me quickly, where is he? Where did the other me run off to?"

"Well, he said something about having to rest in a room or, um, finding the test of a room, or some such?"

"He's in the restroom." The kids said.

"Come on, Dr. Drake must in the restroom." Terran said.

The group heads to the restroom.

"Daddy, are you in here? Hello?" Zoe said. "We're coming in."

They opened the door and found nothing but armor and effects.

"Empty, but it looks like he was here." Tokugawa said.

"Huh?!" Zoe gasped.

"He took off his armor?" Max said.

"Yeah, from the looks of it, he climbed out of this window." She said, noticed the rope leads to outside. "He must've taken off into those woods!"

"Come on, let's go look for them." Rex said.

"Yeah." Max nodded.

"I can help you. I know the forest." Tokugawa said.

"Then lead the way, Shogun." Terran said.


In the forest, Dr. Drake wanders in the forest after sneaking out the fortress.

"Finally, I'm not a Shogun anymore." He muttered. "What if I'm trapped here in Ancient Japan and-Huh?!"

He sees the Pod ship.

"The Space Pirate ship!"

Dr. Drake ran to where it lands as Tokugawa sees him.

"There! I see him!" Tokugawa said as he follows.

Shear flew over to the ship where Foolscap is.

"Uh oh, here comes trouble." He said, thinking she's going to attack him again. "You're not going to try and attack me again, are you, Shear?"

"Chill, I'm back to my old self." She said.

"Good, 'cause we still have a Cosmos Stone to find!"

"Actually, we don't. I've already found it."

"Hey!" They turned to see Dr. Drake, running to them. "Wait for me! Don't leave without me! Get me outta her! Take me back to the others!"

He then hops on the ship.

"Wait, how did you end up here?" Foolscap said.

Tokugawa spotted them. "Look, there he is!"

Terran and Max saw them as well.

"Dr. Drake!" Max yelled.

"Hey!" Terran yelled.

"Hm?!" Dr. Drake heard and saw them. "Hey, Max, is that you?"

The cover was closed before he gets out.

"Wait, let me out of here!"

"No way! You had your chance at freedom!" Foolscap exclaimed.

"Everybody's okay, you two!" He yelled as the ship takes off.

"Dr. Drake, wait!" Max shouted.

"Tell Zoe I'm okay!"

The spaceship then takes off back to their ship before Zoe and Rex came.

"What happened?!" Rex asked.

"Was that my dad?" Zoe asked.

"We found him all right but…" Terran said.

"The Space Pirates took him away again." Max finished.

"No… daddy." She said, saddened that her father was taken again.

"He told us to let you know he was okay." Tokugawa assured. "I could hear the love his voice, Zoe, and I know that strong love like that means that one day, you'll be back together."

They then watched at the night skies where the Space Pirates took off with Dr. Drake.


Meanwhile, the Alpha Gang was in the cave after the bears caught them.

"Think it's safe to sneak away yet?" Ed asked while they snuggled by sleeping bears

"I'll wake mine up if I move anything other than my mouth." Ursula said.

"I wonder why they didn't gobble us up for dinner?" Zander wondered.

"Maybe they're saving us for breakfast?" Ed said.

The thought of that made Ursula wailed in fear.
