The Road Rovers -- "Invasion of the Lost Pack -- Part 2" The scene is Road Rover Mission Control, where Dawn is joined by Boomerang, Ace, the Computer Gila Monster, Amos Doggie and Hannah in the briefing room with the Master. MASTER: Rovers, here is the situation. Hunter led a team of Rovers to an army base in Nevada to intercept a Lost Pack raiding party. We've lost Otto's satelite link a few minutes ago, so I'm sending Hope there in the Mobile RR Headquarters to assist. We've sent a second team of Rovers to Parvo's secret base to stop another group of Lost Pack raiders, but they were all too late. They found Parvo badly beated and his Cano-Mutator and all his mutants missing. That's why I've called all of you here, Mission Control may be the raiders next target and we .... (looks at Boomerang who has headphones on moving his head up and down) BOOMERANG!!! ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME?? BOOMERANG (notices everyone staring at him): Hey .. (takes off headphones) did the meeting start yet? DAWN (rolls eyes): Oh brother..... GILA MONSTER (angry): Git them things out of your ears soes you can hear the Master, he ain't just flappin' his gums fer his own health! BOOMERANG (laughs): Back off, Godzilla, mind you own business! GILA MONSTER (furious): You lousy twerp, I'm gonna take this 2 x 4 here and ram it right up your .... ACE (grabs Gila Monster by the arm): Hey, take it easy big guy! (turns to Master): Go ahead, sir, we're listening! MASTER (clears throat): As I was saying, you Rovers must prepare our defenses until we have a better idea of what their next target will be! (hears a beeping noise, looks at panel): We've receiving a message from the Canius Minor, I'll put it on our viewscreen. PERSIA (on viewscreen): Master, we're almost ready to hyperjump to Earth. How's the situation? MASTER (sternly): No time to explain, we need you and your crew's help immediately, contact me again when you reach Earth, and HURRY!! BOOMERANG (confused): What's he so bend out of shape about? AMOS (growls): If you be paying attention instead of playing music into your earholes, you would know! BOOMERANG (laughs): Take it easy, gramps, I know what to do! We have to get ready to rumble! HANNAH (mad): You should have more respect for your elders! BOOMERANG (laughs): And who are you? The old man's daughter? HANNAH (growls): I'M HIS WIFE! BOOMERANG (under his breath): You could do a lot better with me, babe.. HANNAH (angry): I heard that! I'm happily married and I'm not a BABE!! BOMMERANG (shakes head): But, how did you .... MASTER (upset): ROVERS!!! BATTLE STATIONS!!! The scene switches back to Parvo's secret lair, where Marauder, DJ, Dylan, Dervish, Molly, Linda, Vicki and Abby are searching all the wreckage for clues. DJ (shouts as he slowly looks around): Everyone, stay loose, this place could be booby trapped. DYLAN (points): Like that trip wire on the floor over there! LINDA, STOP!!! Linda turns around, but has already tripped the wire, a huge laser cannon fires at her, but the shot passes through her and blows a huge hole in the adjacent wall. MARAUDER (shouts): LINDA!!!!! (runs over to her): Oh yeah, I forgot. Your special powers and all .... LINDA (turns to Dylan and smiles): You were worried about me, wasn't you? MARAUDER (stutters): Well.....I.... LINDA (smiles): Marauder, you do like me, don't you? DERVISH (rolls eyes): Not this again.... DYLAN (picks up a torn piece of clothing from the floor): Hey gang, I just sniffed this, it must've got torn from one of the Lost Pack raiders. The scent has faded, they're long gone by now. MARAUDER (nods): Let's return to Mission Control, there's nothing more we can do here. DJ (turns to Vicki): Vicki, will you do the honors? VICKI (nods): Ok, let's all stand together, I'll stand next to Dervish... DERVISH (surprised): HEY!!! VICKI (smiles): Ok, here we go! With a loud BOOM!!!!!!!! they all instantly disappear. The scene changes to the army base, where the sandstorm has finally stopped. The force fields held up, and Alethia, Hunter, Colleen, Magic and the others are all safe. Hope has just arrived in the Mobile Road Rover Headquarters, a huge eighteen wheeler equipped with computers, weapons and a transdogmafier. Hope (a sho line German Shepard) steps down out of the cab and slowly walks towards four huge piles of sand, whick begin to move and causes Hope to draw her laser pistol. Soon, the Road Rovers emerge from beneath the layers of blown sand. HOPE (embarrassed): Hunter? Colleen? Oh, it's you guys! (sigh of relief) The Master sent me out here to find you! BLITZ (eyes get large and drools): Auk-tun! Who's the pretty she dog? HUNTRESS (slaps Blitz in the face): Down boy, remember me, your GIRLFRIEND? BLITZ (embarrassed): Oops, sorry darling... HOPE (smiles): Hunter, I've brought the Mobile Headquarters with me and... HUNTER (interrupts): Great! We need new wheels since our Sky Rover is history! Let's climb aboard, Rovers! COBBER (smiles, turns to Hope): You sure got here at the right time, love! ALETHIA (smiles): Way to go, Hope! All of them howl in unison. Meanwhile, back at the Lost Pack's spaceship, King, Lady and Dreadnaught have come to report to Ultra. ULTRA (smiling wickedly): Status report, King, how go the acquistions? KING (salutes): Mighty Ultra, I am happy to report that we have all the materials we need to finish our repairs. Judy led a second raiding party that was successful in getting the Cano-Mutator! We've been taking every dog in Sulphur and turning them into soldiers, loyal to YOU! ULTRA (grins): Excellent! Lady, your progress on ship repairs? LADY (salutes): Mighty Ultra, the ship's hull has been repaired, warp engines are still down but we have full impulse and thrusters. ULTRA (sternly): We don't need warp engines, we're not leaving this planet! Continue, Lady. LADY (smiles): Our weapons systems are fully operational and all of our ten attack fighters are ready for action! ULTRA (nods and grins): Everything is on schedule! What information have you gathered for us, Dreadnaught? DREADNAUGHT (salutes): I was unable to tie into the Road Rover's Master Computer, hit too many firewalls. But I did manage to download nearly all of the personnel files for you! I can lead you to Mission Control and then ,,,, ULTRA (growls): Dreadnaught, I do the planning around here, is that understood? DREADNAUGHT (nervously nods): Yes, Ultra.... ULTRA (smiles): I have another brilliant plan! First, we'll take over the capital! That will draw these Road Rovers out to defend it, THEN we smash them! While they're distracted, a small group of our raiders will hit Mission Control! Dreadnaught, you will join Dizzy, Judy and Spike for the raid, I'll assign some of our new 'recruits' for this assignment. Think of it, we'll not only take over the United States, we'll destroy those stupid Road Rovers at the same time! LADY (scared): I beg your pardon, Ultra, but what if the Space Rovers show up? ULTRA (laughs): I'm COUNTING on them to come! That's why we'll have our ship in the sky by then! With our systems fixed, they'll be no match for our firepower! Prepare to launch! JUDY (on radio, sexy voice): Ultra, there's a Road Rover vehicle heading towards us! It appears to be some sort of big rig truck! ULTRA (angry): King, take some of our soldiers over there and take care of them! We can't afford any delays in my brilliant plan! The Mobile Headquarters is soon under fire. Hope skillfully steers an evasive course which manages to dodge nearly all of the missles and laser fire. The rig stops behind a huge rock formation and the Rovers disperse and take attack positions nearby. A huge 'firefight' takes place as Alethia, Hunter, Huntress, Magic, Exile, Roger, Ben, Samantha, Hope, Cobber, Blitz and Otto manage to knock out many attacking Cano-Mutants. HUNTER (firing laser pistol, looking at Colleen): Colleen, so far it's a standoff, we need to get past these goons and attack the spacecraft! COLLEEN (firing laser pistol, nods): Right, Huntie-Wuntie, but how? Just then, behind the rock formation a great flash of light is seen. It's a transporter beam, and it brings Grunt, Rastupin, Su Li, Orchid, Sophia, Pancho, Numbia, Cactus Jake and Fydo to the scene. GRUNT (shouts outloud): GRRRRRRRRRRR! GROWL!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRR! CACTUS JAKE (shouts): Y'all heard Grunt! Let's take'm!! HUNTER (surprised): The Space Rovers? What are they doing here? COLLEEN (smiles): Who cares? They're running towards Ultra's ship! COBBER (jumps down): I'm joinin' those bloaks! I want to see some action! MAGIC (jumps down): Me too! Let's go kick some tails! Grunt leads his security force through the front line of Ultra's defenses. Ultra is watching all of this on several monitors in his ship. ULTRA (on mic): Judy, this is your leader! Let those Space Rovers come closer to the front entrance ramp. I have a plan! The Space Rover forces along with Cobber and Magic firefight and fist fight their way to the front entrance ramp. It is then that Ultra appears and throws a huge smoke grenade at them. In a minute, when the smoke clears, the hatch of the ship is closed and it's beginning to take off. GRUNT (struggles to stand up): GRRRRRRRRRRR GROWL!!! GRRRRRRRRRR! CACTUS JAKE (looks around): We're all here, Grunt... WAIT! Where's Fydo? COBBER (struggles to stand up): Magic? Where's Magic? CACTUS JAKE (looks around): Fydo? Pancho? Numbia? GRUNT (shakes fist at Ultra's ship): GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!! SU LI (grabs Grunt by the arm): No sir, they're in the air now, we can't do anything to stop them from here. GRUNT (turns to Rasputin): GRRRRRRRRRRR!!! GROWL!!!!! RASPUTIN (nods): Yes sir! (activates wrist communicator): Rasputin to Canius Minor, come in! PERSIA (on speaker): Rasputin, what's happaning? RASPUTIN (on mic): Captain, we were not successful in stopping Ultra. Three Space Rovers and one Road Rover are missing, some of us have suffered minor injuries but other than that .... PERSIA (on speaker): Ok, we're tracking Ultra's ship now, it seems to he heading towards Washington! I'm talking to the Master at the same time, so here's what we're going to do. Tell Hope to have Otto teleport Hunter's team and the Moblie Headquarters directly to the White House lawn. The rest of you prepare to return to the ship. We're going to send many of our crew members to Washington and to Road Rover Headquarters to help in their defense. We've contacted the local police, and they'll see that all of the humans slaves are returned to Sulphur. Carry out my orders, Persia out! RASPUTIN (on mic): Yes, Captain! (turns to the others): Ok, everyone, here's what we're going to do .... The scene shifts to Ultra's ship. King is on the bridge with Lady at the helm controls. Ultra along with Dreadnaught, Judy, Dizzy and Spike are at the rear of the bridge, examining their new prisoners: Magic and Fydo. ULTRA (laughs): I read the files you stole, Dreadnaught, that's why I wanted to capture Fydo! According to his file, he's been twice decorated for valor and promoted! An important Space Rover like him must have security clearance! We'll put him in our mind reading machine, a special agent like him will have valuable information we can use against the Space Rovers! FYDO (confused, terrified): But...but.... I'm not important, I'm not even brave... I'm .... ULTRA (laughs): Nice try, mister! But no dice! Take him to the machine NOW! As two Lost Pack soldiers drag Fydo away, Dreadnaught stares at Magic. DREADNAUGHT (looks at Ultra): Ultra, why did you grab the labrabor girl doggie? ULTRA (smiles): According to YOUR personnel file, you have a 'thing' for the ladies. After we conquer Washington, she's yours! I always take good care of my soldiers! MAGIC (struggles): I'll never submit to your wishes, you horny doberman! DREADNAUGHT (drools): Who says I'm going to ASK you? (grabs her tail and feels it): WOW!!! I'm going to ENJOY this! Magic gets one of her legs free and kicks Dreadnaught between his legs, causing him to fall to the floor and wench in pain. ULTRA (grabs Magic by her collar): Girlie, do something like that again, and I'll throw you out of this ship without a parachute! (turns to Judy): Judy, you take Dizzy, Spike and 'Soprano boy' with you to the shuttle bay. Prepare to begin our raid on Road Rover Headquarters. KING (shouts): Ultra, we're one hundred air miles from Washington and many military planes are heading towards us! ULTRA (angry); Don't just stand there! Lock our phasers on them and fire! The huge Willain spaceship systematicly shoots down every military jet that flies towards them. Some planes manage to fire missles but they explode against the ship's shields. ULTRA (laughs): YOU SEE! What did I tell you? We can handle anything the humans can dish out! As soon as we gather all the information we can from Fydo's mind, we'll begin our attack! The scene now shifts to the front lawn of the White House, where a large group of army soldiers are running towards the gates, several tanks and jeeps are moving all around as the Mobile Road Rover Headquarters arrives with a loud BOOM!!!!! At first, the soldiers turn and aim their weapons until they see Hunter, Colleen and the other Road Rovers exiting the huge rig and taking their positions on the White House lawn. Within a minute, many Space Rovers are 'beamed down' to where Hunter and the others are standing. They include Grunt, Rasputin, Lao Zi, Bob, Orchid, Sophia, Claudia, Sheena, Boomer and Persia. HUNTER (after watching beam-in): Whoa, cool! Can you teach me to do that? PERSIA (sternly): There's no time for foolishness, Hunter. Ultra's forces will be here at any moment and we have to be ready for them! COLLEEN (shouts): Persia, why can't the Canius Minor just shoot them down now? PERSIA (sadly): We've thought about it, but they're flying too close to the ground, if we missed with our phasers or missles, we could kill thousands of innocent humans. Somehow, we have to get that spaceship of theirs up into the atmosphere so we can safely attack it! SHEENA (sees Cobber): COBBIE!!!!! Sheena runs over and hugs Cobber tightly. COBBER (struggles): Cobbie can't breathe, love! PERSIA (grabs Sheena by the shoulder): There's no time for this! Get your laser rifle and take your position, and that's an order! You and Marauder will also be taking care of any injuries, get your mind on your mission, not on your boyfriend! SHEENA (nods, sadly): Yes, ma'am.... After handing out the last of the laser rifles, Hope turns and sees Claudia sitting on a stomp, crying. She walks over to her. HOPE (smiles): Claudia, what's the matter? CLAUDIA (looks up): My boyfriend's been captured by the Lost Pack. I may never see him again..... HOPE (hugs Claudia): Don't give up hope, my friend! Besides, we have a job to do here. The Lost Pack is heading our way, we must get ready! CLAUDIA (in tears): I'll try, Hope! I'll try! HOPE (nods): That's the way! Let's go! The scene shifts to Road Rover Mission Control. The Road Rovers are joined by Morgan as well as some Space Rovers: Among them are Luigi, Hans, Deborah and Su Li. A loud BOOM!!!! is heard in the briefing roon, causing several Rovers to rush in with their laser pistols drawn. It's only Uncle Buford and Kyra. UNCLE BUFORD (smiles): Sorry, folks! Didn't mean to startle y'all! (sees Molly): Molly, I brought your spare collar! MOLLY (runs to Uncle Buford): Thank you, Uncle Buford! But you'd better leave now, this place may be attacked at any moment and .... UNCLE BUFORD (grins): And you don't think an old man like me should be here, right? MOLLY (stuttering): I...I didn't mean to imply ..... UNCLE BUFORD (smiles): I know, Molly, you're concerned for my safety. Don't worry, I can handle myself! KYRA (smiles): I'll stay with him, Molly, the Master said we need all the help we can get! The scene shifts to the bridge of the Canius Minor. Alexander is in the captain's chair, Saundra and Bruno are at the helm controls. Whitey is at the science station while Calypso is seated at the communication station. ALEXANDER (angry, slams fist on armrest): I HATE this! We have the firepower to destroy Ultra, but we can't use it without the risk of killing civilians on Earth. Our invisibility shield is on, so at least Ultra can't see us. CALYPSO (turns to Alexander): Commander, our fellow Space Rovers be all in position. ALEXANDER (nods): Thanks, Calypso. I hate just sitting here waiting for the next move! SAUNDRA (turns to Alexander): Commander, if I may suggest, maybe we can use this time to figure out a few ways we can help our commades on Earth! WHITEY (turns to Alexander): Saundra is correct. Let's get Daisy and Flash up here. If I may, sir, I'd like to call the Willians... ALEXANDER (smiles): Alright, get those bloodhounds up here! Whitey, make your call, we have to do something! The scene shifts to the bridge of Ultra's ship. ULTRA (excited): Ok, does everyone understand my brilliant plan? King, since I'll be leading the ground forces against Washington, you'll be in command here! As soon as our army of Cano-Mutants are on the ground, you go after the Canius Minor! I know they're out there somewhere! Judy, launch your attack shortly after that. Any questions? DREADNAUGHT (slumped over): Ya, I have a question! When do I get the girl? JUDY (laughes, sexy voice): Honey, I don't think your exactly in a 'position' to get any girl right now, darling! ULTRA (growls): NEVER MIND! King, you're in charge, I'm heading for the shuttle bay. Lady, you're with me! Let's get ready for our final revenge! ---------------------------------------------------------- to be continued...
