The Lost Pack -- "A Lucky Day -- Part 1" NOTE: This episode picks up where "The Enemy Within -- Part 2" left off All ten members of the Lost Pack, now in their canine forms, stand before General Parvo and Groomer. Having been recently rescued from the hands of the authorities, the General points towards his cano-mutator. PARVO (smiles): You evil canines have two choices, either step into my cano-mutator and work for me, or I'll return you to the animal shelter and they can deal with you. It's your choice, think about it, but don't take too long, I'm a very busy man! Ultra turns to the others and barks repeatedly. Then he enters the cano-mutator and emerges in his cano-sapien form. ULTRA (lowers head): This is better than being put to sleep, so all of you, enter the cano-mutator! One by one, all of the Lost Pack members enter the chamber and emerge as their 'former' selves. PARVO (smiles): A wise decision, Ultra! Together, the two of us can defeat the Road Rovers once and for all! But remember, I am the BOSS, you take your orders from me and Groomer, agreed? ULTRA (nods): Under the circumstances, we have little choice but to comply PARVO (smiles): We understand each other, good! (points): Go join the rest of my mutants, I will call on you when I need you! GROOMER (points): Over there, next to our newest recruits we picked up in Austrailia! Ultra and his group slowly walk over to the new group of cano-mutants, one looks vaguely familiar. TUNGSTUN (shocked): Cobber? LADY (looks up): That's not Cobber, you dolt! DIZZY (points): That Kelpie is a girl! DREADNAUGHT (smiles, drools): YA YA!!! SHE'S A PRETTY SHE DOG!!! LUCKY (growls): The name's Lucky and you better keep your bloolin' mitts off of me, Kraut Prince! ULTRA (concerned): Forgive us, Lucky, but you do have the same fur colorations as Cobber, without the scar.... LUCKY (surprised): Cobber? What do you know about Cobber? I have met him before, even been inside Road Rover Mission Control with him before! KING (shocked): Really? LUCKY (nods): Yes, I was there long enough to see most of the operation. Some robotic German Shepard tried to make me forget all about it, but the jolt I got from the cano-mator has brought it all back to memory! ULTRA (whispers): Lucky, do you know a way out of here? LUCKY (angry): If I knew of a way out, I wouldn't be here now! ULTRA (nods): I understand.. JUDY (sexy voice): Ultra, we gotta escape! Working for humans is degrading! LUCKY (smiles): If I help you guys escape, will you take me with you? MONICA (nods): Agreed! LUCKY (smiles at Judy): See those two cano-mutant guards over there? They're standing in front of a tunnel that leads to the surface. Shall we 'distract' them for a while? JUDY (nods, wide grin): I get your drift, deary, let's go! Lucky and Judy approach the two stone-faced guards. JUDY (sexy voice): Hey big boy? Wanna play fetch with me? LUCKY (shakes hips): How about you, handsome? The two cano-guards grin widely as they follow the ladies behind a stack of barrels, where they are knocked out cold by Ultra and Tungstun. ULTRA (smiles): Nice work, ladies, let's go! Ultra leads the Lost Pack and Lucky into the now unguarded tunnel to the surface. ULTRA (points): What luck! An airport! (turns to Dizzy): Feel like hot wiring a private jet? DIZZY (nods): YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!! ULTRA (smiles): And I know just WHERE we can fly off to! The scene now shifts to Road Rover Alpha Base, where the huge Space Rover ship (the one that's shaped like a dog with a frizbee in it's 'mouth') rests in the underground hanger for repairs and maintenence. Among those who are supervising the work are DJ, Alethia, Cobber, Star, Dawn and Misty Maddog. MISTY (happy): WOW!! So this is the original Road Rover spacecraft! I'm so glad you guys are letting me tag along to see this! DJ (smiles): No problem, Misty! ALETHIA (nods): So, are the rumors I hear true? COBBER (turns to Alethia): What's that? ALETHIA (smiles): That you and Sheena are planning to tie the knot soon! COBBER (shocked): Now, where did you hear that? DAWN (giggles): Hey Cobbie, it's no secret! STAR (nods): That's right! I could tell by the way you held each other on her last shore leave that... COBBER (stuttering): Er... well...... you see.. .... it's like this.... MISTY (beaming): HOORAY!!! DJ (nods): Let's see... I should organize a bachelor's party... COBBER (surprised): DJ?? DJ (laughs): Gotcha bro! (smiles): I think we all know what you're trying to say. As the others are talking, Warrior, the huge St Bernard, walks over to the group. Ignoring the current topic of conversation, he walks past the group and points at the huge ship. WARRIOR (smiles): Magnificent space vessel, isn't she? DJ (nods): Well, I guess so MISTY (happy); YES!! It really is!! WARRIOR (sadly): It's too bad it's being decommissioned. The Master has another team of Rovers working on the Space Rover II at Delta Base. That vessel is nearly completed. This one is going to be dismantled. STAR (looks up at it): Had a lot of memories on that ship! DAWN (nods): That's right! DJ (looks up at it): Gonna miss that ship. It was the first Rover space vessel. WARRIOR (looks at the group): Why look so glum? The new Space Rover has all the latest advances in computer and space flight technology on it. Professor Hubert's daughters Flash and Daisy even helped with the basic design and overlay. As Warrior continues to speak, several gas grenades fall all around them. One by one, each is overcome by the gas and passes out. Eleven figures dressed in army fatigues and wearing gas masks quickly move towards the fallen Rovers. ULTRA (laughing): You see? I plan worked! No one would ever suspect that we would attack Alpha Base! TUNGSTUN (running towards him): I looked all around, I see no one else in this chamber ULTRA (turns to DIzzy): Dizzy, do you think you can fire up those warp engines? DIZZY (crazy laugh): You bet, boss! LADY (points): What do we do with these Rovers? JUDY (sexy voice): Yeah, the guy with the sword is really cute! ULTRA (angry): Never mind that, Judy! We'll take them along as hostages, just in case the Master and the other Rovers try anything. LUCKY (happy): COBBER!!! IT'S COBBER!!! KING (shocked): You know him? LUCKY (nods): Yes, I remember it all now. The last time we met, that robotic German Shepard made me forget, but when Parvo turned me back into a cano, it all came back to me! MONICA (looks around): We don't have time to waste, let's collect our hostages and get this bucket of bolts into space before we're discovered! The Lost Pack quickly take Alethia, DJ, Cobber, Dawn, Star, Warrior and Misty into the ship. Dizzy, Dreadnaught and Spike run over to enginnering, the others except for Rico and Monica go to the bridge. They bust into the ship's armory and each take laser pistols, rifles and wrist communicators. The still unconscience Road Rovers are put in the brig, where Rico and Monica stand guard. Ultra takes the captain's chair, Lady and King take the navigation controls, while Judy is at the science station. Tungstun is at the weapons station< Lucky is at the communications station. ULTRA (anxious): C'mon you guys! Let's get the engines started and get out of here! JUDY (pushing buttons): I'm trying to get the Alpha Base automated response system to open the hanger door. If I can't make that happen, we won't be flying off to anywhere! ULTRA (turns to Lucky): Lucky, tell Dizzy to get those warp engines restarted now! Suddenly, amber lights start blinking throughout the ship and a loud alarm siren sounds... VOICE ON PA SYSTEM: Intruder alert! Intruder Alert! Unauthorized personnel are operating this vessel. Surrender at once or face termination! ULTRA (turns to Judy): You gotta figure out a way to shut that fool computer down! As a few seconds later, the alarm stops and the amber lights go out. ULTRA (smiles): Good work! JUDY (sexy voice): But I didn't do it, sugar! ULTRA (surprised): Then who... DREADNAUGHT (on speakers): I did it! I was a Space Rover once so I know all about dere systems! KING (shouts): Good job, Dread! Now, do you know the code that will force the bay doors to open? DREADNAUGHT (on speakers): YA YA !!!! VATCH DIS!!!! A few seconds go by, the huge bay doors of Alpha Base begin to open. The scene now switches to Road Rover Mission Control where Otto, Samantha Maddog, Prairie Rose and the Master are walking down the corridor together. SAMANTHA (looking at Rose): So you see, Mrs Prairie Rose, ma'am, there are many different sections in Mission Control PRAIRIE ROSE (nods): This is all very impressive. And I thank you for the guided tour. Too bad my husband's in court now, he'd love to see all this too! OTTO (smiling): It is our pleasure to ..... (sternly): Emergency situation..... intruders have taken over Alpha Base .. MASTER (shocked): Alpha Base? OTTO (sternly): I detect a warp power signature emulating from that location... MASTER (surprised): OH NO!!! THEY'RE STEALING THE SPACE ROVER!!! OTTO (sternly): Not a moment to lose! Hunter, Colleen, Biltz, Marauder, Linda Maddog and Exile rush over. HUNTER (smiles): Hey guys! How's it waggin? OTTO (sternly): No time to explain, prepare for teleportation... HUNTER (shocked): Come again? With a loud BOOM!!!! the seven Rovers disappear and then reappear in the bay of Alpha Base, just as the Space Rover is taking off. COLLEEN (shocked): Blimey! We're too late! SAMANTHA (turns to Otto): Honey, can you disable it? OTTO (shakes head): The intruders have just activated their force field, but before it was turned on, I did manage to scan the interior. Alethia, DJ, Cobber, Warrior, Star, Dawn and Misty are all being held prisoner inside! LINDA (screams): NO!!! MY LITTLE SISTER!!!! OTTO (sternly): The intruders have been identified... they are members of the Lost Pack! EXILE (angry): Bolshoi! We must stop them! The Space Rover is now flying vertically out of the huge hanger bay. PRAIRIE ROSE (angry): I can't just stand here and let this happan! In seconds, Prairie Rose has grown to over fifty feet tall, she grabs the 'legs' of the Space Rover, holding it firmly in her huge hands. Her silver glove protect her hands from the electrifying force field. HUNTER (shouts up): GOOD WORK, PRAIRIE ROSE!!! The Space Rover fires a single torpedo at Prairie Rose, it explodes, causing her to release the ship and slowly begin to fall. The other Rovers scatter as the huge Golden Retriever falls to the floor of the hanger bay. As she 'shrinks' back to normal size, Marauder rushes over to treat her wounds. The Space Rover goes into warp and disappears. SAMANTHA (shocked): OH NO!! MRS ROSE!!!! MARAUDER (standing over her with his med kit): She's hurt bad, gotta get her back to Mission Control. HUNTER (shakes head): How could this have happened? OTTO (sternly): The Lost Pack met little resistance in infilltrating Alpha Base do to ... HUNTER (growls): Save us the technical explanations, Otto! SAMANTHA (upset): Hey, Mr Hunter, sir, that was a rude way to address my husband! BLITZ (angry): If he's so great, how come dee bad guys got away? Computer boy fowls up again! Samantha turns to Blitz and growls fiercely, but then turns towards the fallen Prairie Rose.. SAMANTHA (shouts): We'll teleport you back to Mission Control, Mr Marauder, sir... As Marauder nods, he and the fallen Prairie Rose disappear with a loud BOOM!!!! COLLEEN (looking up): No telling where those bloaks are going! HUNTER (nods): And what they'll do when they get there... OTTO (turns to Hunter): I would suggest contacting Captain Persia of the Space Rovers... HUNTER (nods): Good idea... this time, we're gonna need all the help we can get!! SAMANTHA (looks around): OH NO!! WHERE'S LINDA??? Back on board the Space Rover, Lucky and Dreadnaught walk down to the brig and relieve Monica and Rico from watching the 'prisoners', who are now awake and very angry. ALETHIA (furious): HEY!! What's the big idea! COBBER (angry): If you mutts know what's good for ya, you'll let us out, NOW!! STAR (nods): YEAH!! LUCKY (angry): NO TALKING FROM THE PRISIONERS!! (turns to Cobber): Except for you, handsome! COBBER (shocked): Lucky?? Is that you? LUCKY (smiles): Ah! You remember me! DREADNAUGHT (shocked): HEY!!! Cut dat out! Dees Rovers vill try to escape and .... (looks over at the females): ACH TUN!!!! (waves, smiles): Hello pretty she dogs! Who vants to get aboard dee 'Love Express' wit me? DAWN (turns head): I'd rather go down with the Titanic! STAR (growls): SHUT UP, PIG!!!! DJ (stands in front of them): Dreadnaught, you come near any of them and I'll.... Fear seizes Dreadnaught and he backs away. LUCKY (shakes head): You idiot! WE have the guns, remember? We took all of their weapons! DREADNAUGHT (nods): Oh ya! Right! I forgot! WARRIOR (sternly): What do you plan on doing to us? LUCKY (smiles): Maybe we'll put you to work, maybe we'll swap you for food, or maybe we'll just open the airlock and watch all of you fly out into space! Misty hugs Cobber in fear. The other Rovers stare at each other with fearful looks on their faces. ------------------------------------------------------------------- to be continued....
