01x20 - Callanean: Full Frontal Attack Begins!

Post by bunniefuu »

Space Pilot Hagen, sir. Space

Pilot John Lee. And I'm

Barry Hercules, doc.

X-b*mber is landing on Colinium. The

Imperial Alliance's attempt to

assassinate Lamda using Cyborg failed,

thanks to Doctor Ben's swift

intervention. But he was poisoned by the

bionic creature and died in the arms of

his crew. They now must overcome their

grief and continue their mission. But

memories of Doctor Ben continue to haunt

them,

Doctor. Doctor Ben, I shall

never forget the first day we met.

Doctor, the

fighters have arrived.

Yes, I'm Doctor Ben. I'm in

command of Moonbase. Welcome, gentlemen.

You'll be taking orders only from me from

now on. Shiro Hagen, Sir.

Space Cadet John Lee.

Barry Hercules, Doc. Doctor Ben, you

please be seated.

Doctor,

you must all try to overcome this grief.

Doctor Ben would not want you to suffer.

Yeah, a pile of circuits can't understand

human emotions. Look, a perfectly

programmed Android understands

everything. You two. That's enough. This

is no time to argue. Guess not. I'm

just a little on edge. We've got to rely

on each other now. We have got to be

united against the Alliance. Am I right?

Yeah, I guess you're right.

Maybe I said too much. Sorry, PPA.

Right, PPA. Go and see how

Lamia is. Yes, Sir. Right away.

This is the planet Kalinium. X-b*mber,

correct your course. It's Captain Halley.

This is X-b*mber. We copy. Change

course. Right. You got it.

Doctor

Lamia. What is it?

Lamia, you must not distress yourself

like this. No, I'll be all right.

Thank you, Doctor.

I should not have emotions. But I respect

it and admired you so much. I can't help

it. Poor PPA. You do

have feelings, don't you?I can

sense that.

We'll all miss you very much.

The landing base.

I'm reversing engines now. Right

touchdown.

Gentlemen, come this way.

Shiro, Captain Halley.

Good to see you. It's

good to see you, Sir. Thank you for

coming. I welcome all of you. I'm glad

you're safe. We've brought Lamia with us,

Sir. Greetings, Lamia, at

long last. Thank you.

Please make yourselves at home. It's

been a harrowing journey for you. Where's

Doctor Ben?I'm afraid. We've bad

news. What has happened to the Doctor?

He was k*lled by the Alliance just before

we reached here. What?Doctor

Ben is dead. How did it happen?He saved

my life and in doing so lost his

own. A dirty little assassin

sent by Commander Makara.

He gave his life so I could live.

How tragic. And I had hoped

this would be a happy day. Captain

Halley, may I ask a favor?What is it?

May we bury the Doctor on this

planet?It would be an honor for

us. Let him rest here in

peace. Thank you, Captain Halley.

So X b*mber reached Colinium.

I'll make sure it never leaves that

planet. Captain Aurion, prepare

to attack them by your divine

guidance.

You may rest in peace, Doctor. We've

reunited Lamia with Hallie.

Your wish has been fulfilled. We only

wish you could have been here to see it

for yourself, Doctor. He was, fellas.

He'll always be with us.

Doctor, I admired your courage so

much, your ability to command respect and

loyalty. You are an example of the

integrity and the compassion of the

Earth people. Rest in peace.

Now, Hallie, I think it's time for an

explanation. Yes. Why was

it necessary to bring Lamia here at such

cost?Captain Carter

and now Doctor Ben. Shyro,

take it easy. Well, it's about time he

knows how we feel. We don't want to lose

anyone else. What's it all about?

Tell us. What's the secret about

Lamia being F01?Lamia.

Now you see, you've hurt her feelings.

Lamia.

What is my secret destiny?

All of them are right. I have hurt

so many people I love.

Lamia.

I know how you feel, but be strong,

Hallie. I cannot bear to

know others have suffered because of me,

Lamia. It could not be helped. Where

there is conflict, there will be victims.

Believe me, you have not been brought

here in vain. You are the symbol of

peace for the entire universe.

In the Millennium 3000,

you will know and understand the full

meaning of your powers. But what?What

does that mean?You will know. When the

time comes, your eyes will be opened.

It is a great challenge. And I am

destined to share that challenge with

you. YouIt is our destiny,

Lamia, and it is our duty.

Duty.

Hey pal, we know how you feel, but we

must decide whether we stay here or

return to Starfleet Command, wherever

this. F01 is. That's where the

Alliance will attack. What do you say,

Shyro?I don't want to cool my heels on

this planet forever. You don't want Lamia

to come to any harm. Of course not.

What's your answer, Shyro?Yes, Shyro. Do

you think that Lamia is going to be safe

on this planet?We can't go back without

her. Lamia fought by our side against the

Imperial Alliance. We've been the

victims and been hunted long enough.

I think it's about time to turn things

around. You with me?What kind of

turnaround?I don't think I want to hear

this. We have to ensure a

lasting peace. Yeah. But

how?You're dealing with the Alliance. I

know. That's the answer. We have to

destroy it. Oh, yish. What?

We will attack them on their home planet

and finish them. You make it sound

real easy. Sounds like suicide.

No, not if we show a united front.

We'll ask the people of this planet to

help us. Umm

We owe it to Dr. Ben. OK,

by me. And me. I'm with you, fellas.

Right. Let's go for it.

Chairo.

Forgive me if I appeared.

Insensitive to your grief, but I request

that we refrain discussing Lamia's future

till the new year. Right, Captain. My

apologies, Lamia. Thank you.

By the way, I want you to meet someone.

Yes. Who is it?You'll soon know.

Please come with me.

Look at that. It's great.

An amazing weapon for a planet that's

renounced w*r. Shyro.

I thought this was a peaceful planet.

Yeah, it is a weapon that has never been

used, so you say. But it's true.

They have renounced w*r. This is a planet

dedicated to peace. I still can't believe

it. You'll understand soon. Hey, we got a

visitor. What?

It can't be

Shyro. Don't you know me?

Father. Welcome, my son. It

really is you, Father. Professor.

I can't believe it. Professor Hagen.

Lamia, my dear child. I thought you were

dead. No, my dear, I'm very much

alive. Father, we'd given you

up for last long ago. A sad deception

which I was forced to maintain. Father,

I'd like to introduce the crew of

X-b*mber. This is Barry Hercules.

An honor to meet you, Sir. And John Lee.

You sure you're not a ghost?And this is

PPA. How do you do, Professor?Pleased to

meet you all. And I'm no ghost, fellas.

Never thought I'd be meeting the designer

of X b*mber in another Galaxy. Nor did

I. It's a strange universe. By

the way, where's Doctor Ben?Father,

the Doctor is dead. k*lled by the

Alliance. An assassin. A

tragedy. The Doctor's dead. Not only the

Doctor, but also Captain Carter.

They were fine men. We've just buried

the Doctor. May he rest in peace

in the serenity of this planet.

Dr. Ben, a great man.

My good friend. But how

fortunate for me to see you again, my

son. Yes, wonderful. But how did you

come here, Father?You're right. I

owe you an explanation. Yes. Yes

We are ready to attack.

Commander Makara, we are ready to attack.

Shall I launch our fighters now?Wait.

We have time. Caliban has created a new

weapon for us. This time I will

destroy that girl, Lamia. Are you sure?

It's not so easy. HmmJust leave

it to me. Well, I want no

more mistakes. This is your last

chance to prove yourself to the Alliance.

I know. I will personally see to it

that Calinian is obliterated and

then bring Lamia to you. Good. Do

it. I will eagerly await

news of your triumph and that girl's

death.

You may well wonder why I am here. It is

quite simple. Once the X-b*mber project

was completed, I had time on my hands. I

was curious about Lamia. About Lamia.

You see, I wanted to know why

Lamia had been sent to Mars.

Ever since the day I had found her, a

little baby lying in a capsule on Mars, I

had the strangest premonition that she

was very special. As I was bringing her

up, I began to realize she was special,

not only to me, but to the entire

universe. One day I set off in a

spacecraft to attempt to discover her

home planet, but the control system

failed. Fortunately, Captain Halley of

the Skull rescued me and brought me here

to Kalinion.

I have been here on Kalinian ever since,

and we thought you were dead. I

regret that, Shyro, but I was glad

fate brought me here. Why is that?

What have you been doing?The laser

cannon you saw. I constructed

it. This planet has one of the highest

levels of civilization and science, but

it did not have a single weapon.

You mean that?Crazy. It sounds nice.

Seems impossible. But it is true. The

people on this planet are dedicated to

intellectual and spiritual peace for the

universe. They would never deliberately

use the laser cannon. The Alliance want

to use Lamia. You're right. They

must use her power or destroy it. I have

constructed the laser cannon in

anticipation of that day. Lamia

must not be captured by the Alliance

before the new year. Or the universe will

be destroyed and all humanoid life in it.

Lamia, I do understand how

painful and terrifying this

responsibility is. But we will protect

you. Can you?Thank you, Professor.

Rely on us.

Excuse me. The king wishes to meet you

all. Please come to the palace. Thank

His Majesty. Please inform him we'll be

there directly, Sir. It's a pleasure.

Good. Now we'll get some grub. Lee, all

you ever think of is food. That's right.

You can't do battle on an empty stomach.

You'd better believe it. Trivial

nonsense. You're fighters. Yeah, but even

fighters can feel hungry.

And over our dinner, we shall plan some

strategy against the alliance. Agreed.

Yes, Sir.



Commander. Here's our

plan. We lure X b*mber to our battle

cruiser. Meanwhile, Caliban will stand by

to attack Lamia with his new death ball.

Drone craft launch.

Their Royal Majesties, the King and Queen

of Collinion.

We welcome you, people of the

Earth. We are glad that you arrived

safely and most thankful that you

overcame your difficulties,

and that you rescued Lamia from the

Alliance and brought her safely back to

us and Captain Halley. Now the planet of

Esper can be reconstructed. And

Lamia and Halley will promise to love

each other and be married in the new

year. In this time of anxiety and

strife in the universe, the warmth of our

relationship will bind us together.

For we, like you, the people of the

Earth, have a desire for peace. The

Earth. I want to get back there after

we've destroyed the alliance. And now, my

Earth friends, a reception has been

prepared in your honor. The banquet

awaits. Thank you, Your Majesty. It is an

honor for us. Great food at

last. Don't faint, pal. And miss my

dinner. Remember, a slim fighter is a

healthy fighter. OK, for you. You got no

stomach.

What's happening?Your Majesty,

we are under a massive attack from the

Alliance. They've attacked the

dirty rats.

Hally, you must protect Lamia. We'll deal

with the alliance, Professor. I wish to

fight by your side. No, Hallie.

You two must survive until the new year

comes. Shiro. Let's go. Yes,

Sir. Hallie. Lamia.

Get out of here. Fast.

Shiro. Wait. Shiro.

Lamia. I don't want you to go.

I must. Please stay here with me.

I can't. You know I can't. Then

I want to go with you. It's

impossible. You do understand what your

destiny is, don't you?Lamia.

Halle, you must come with me. Do as

Captain Halle says. If you get k*lled,

the universe will lose its one chance of

lasting peace. But why should you be a

victim?No, I can't value my life

above others. Listen. No one thinks

that of you. Everyone on this planet will

die to defend you. And we have to

stand by and watch them die. No, I

can't do it. Hallie, look

after her. She's very precious. Thank

you. Come then.

X b*mber has fallen into a trap as

anticipated. The time has come to

attack the palace and destroy Lamia.

Fighters launch. Annihilate them.

Now you'll witness the power of my death

ball.

I welcome you, X b*mber. Now

lure them away from that planet.

Shiro Hagen and the crew of X b*mber

are the sole protectors of the F01, which

the Alliance must destroy.

Commander Makara, her time running out,

has launched a final deadly as*ault

against the defenders of peace in the

universe, the two contenders in this

cosmic battle. Are approaching the final

confrontation.

The Death Ball wreaks havoc on the planet

Kalinion. Starfleet battles desperately

to overcome Kaliban's ultimate scientific

machine of destruction. Will Captain

Halle and Shyro Hagen forget their

differences and combine forces to defeat

the Imperial Master?Don't miss the next
