| 01 | "The Boy from Planet Zi" | 2002-02-18 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Van is a young boy living in a small village on the Planet Zi. Inspired by the sacrifice of his father to protect their village, Van dreams of one day becoming a great zoid pilot, constantly searching nearby ruins for a zoid of his very own. He is attacked by desert bandits while on his hover board one day, and is forced to take refuge in the ruins he has been in many times before. The barrage of the attack causes a previously undiscovered door to fall off its hinges, leading to a room with two mechanical cocoons. Upon activation of the first one, the organoid Zeke emerges, is quick to bond with Van, and together, the two are able to fend off the enemy attack long enough to escape the ruins. Zeke is able to merge with an old, rusted out Shield Liger, rusted after decades of neglect by resurrecting it to like-new condition before using it to help Van defeat the bandits in three on one zoid combat. Upon their victory, Zeke and Van return to the ruins, activating the second pod, thinking it would be another organoid like Zeke, but much to their surprise, a girl with amnesia named Fiona emerges. With his new Zoids and mystery companion in tow, Van sets out to discover her identity and become a great Zoid pilot like his father before him. |

| 02 | "The Mysterious Fiona" | 2002-02-19 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Realizing Zeke is an organoid, the Desert Alcavaleno Gang decides to steal him in order to give him to "a certain somebody", attempting to regain some unknown former position or rank. Meanwhile, Fiona continues to annoy Van with her constant questions, naiveté, and point blank uninformed honesty as they return to Van's home village. He introduces Zeke and Fiona to his sister Maria as well as the rest of the town, explaining how they both emerged from pods, and how Fiona had lost her memory. The bandits attack when Van is out giving Fiona a tour of the area in the Liger, taking Maria hostage in exchange for Zeke. Feeling trapped, the townspeople don't want Van to get hurt like his father, so they tie him up, and take Zeke to the bandits themselves for a hostage trade. Van gets free thanks to Fiona's naive nature (she unties him simply because he asked her to!), and is able to come to the rescue of all three of the townspeople now in jeopardy, including his sister. Before he can merge with the Shield Liger however, the Liger gets damaged, and Zeke is knocked unconscious. Before the Liger is destroyed, Zeke is apparently awakened through some mysterious ability of Fiona's. After the battle, the townsfolk accept his choice to leave his town in his new role as a zoid pilot, following in his father's footsteps while they chase after Fiona's memories. |

| 03 | "Memory" | 2002-02-20 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Van and Fiona are going through the desert and Fiona gets thrown into a sandpit, as a Red Command Wolf shows up and rescues her. Since they had gotten separated from the Shield Liger and Zeke, the Command Wolf pilot gives them corn and a place to sleep. By the time they wake up, the he is gone. Van and Fiona make it back to the Liger and Zeke. Later on, they find themselves in a an ancient fortress that was abandoned 50 years ago. A white Gordos attacks them so that they cannot enter the ruins. Both Van and Fiona find another way in, through a hidden sewer tunnel. When they make it out, they had gotten into the heart of the ruins. As they searched they found a diary of a soldier that said that they were abandoning this base, that they didn't want to leave their companion the Gordos here, but that with his damaged leg he couldn't go on. While all this was happening, Irvine (Red Command Wolf Pilot) shows up and starts to attack the Gordos, with a barrage of headbutts and tackles, but he retreats due to some minor damage. After Van fixes the Gordos, Fiona somehow manages to find an ancient tablet that made her remember something called Zoid Eve and that she was to find. Then Irvine shows up in his Red Command Wolf and launches an assault in which Van gets caught. Fiona and Zeke make it out. Then Irvine shows up again and threatens them. Van shows up with the Shield Liger. They fight and though it is a tough battle, Van is about to lose due to inexperience. Then the white Gordos shows up. Irvine flees and Van tries to tell the Gordos that the war ended a long time ago and that they can be free, but unfortunately, the Gordos doesn't listen. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 04 | "The Protectors" | 2002-02-21 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| After Van and Fiona left the ancient fortress with white Gordos, he gets tired and goes to sleep. Fiona is sitting up in the middle of the night. As Van stirs, he sees her he asks her what she is doing and why hasn't she gone to sleep. She tells him she can hear water. Van gets up and listens and says that she must be kidding, there's plenty of water in the tank if she needs it. By morning Fiona had thrown all the water out of the tank because it smelt bad. Van went berserk and told her that it had his special protein thing in it. Van falls down and sees a mirage of Fiona pouring all the water on the ground. Irvine comes in when Fiona had just led Van to some fresh water. Thinking it was just a couple bandits, Irvine finds out it is just Van. Irvine fills Van in on the details in which that he is a protector and how these bandits attacked on a specific set date. Today was one of those set dates. He confirmed the gang to be the Desert Alcavaleno Gang, the same thugs that had attacked Van's village and tried to take Zeke. The enemy had a Red Horn, two Command Wolves, two Molgas, a Guysack and a Redler. Van quickly jumps in and becomes a protector and learns what an aquifer is. The fighting starts and Irvine quickly knocks out a Molga and partially damages a Command Wolf. Just then Van jumps in with the Shield Liger and takes the Guysack out with no problem. He heads up to the Red Horn and the Command Wolves, while Irvine leaves and tries to take out the Redler. He goes into the cliffs and jumps in on the Redler, thereby knocking it out. Van launches his missiles where an aquifer is and knocks out the Command Wolves but the Red Horn still survives due to its amazing armor; it charges Van. Irvine comes out of the canyons and shoots the Red Horn down just in time. After the fight is won, Van and Irvine talk about it. Van figures out that Irvine believes in him. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 05 | "Sleeper Trap" | 2002-02-22 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| After saving the village from the Desert Alcavaleno Gang, the Shield Liger had some pretty serious damage. Van almost has a heart-attack when he finds out that Fiona ate his Papaya. A little while after that, they meet a sassy girl called Moonbay. She checks out his Shield Liger and sees that the front-back leg had some missile damage on it. They talk until a couple of sleeper Guysacks attack them. With Moonbay's Gustav weighted down by the heavy load, she can't put any weapons on it. Just then, Irvine comes and saves the day again by destroying all of the Guysacks except one that managed to slip by and cause him some damage. Moonbay finds a good place to camp out for the night, an ancient fortress base. Both the Command Wolf and the Shield Liger had taken on pretty serious damage. Irvine gets suspicious and asked Moonbay if her cargo had any Imperial firepower. Moonbay verified that and told Irvine that it was all loaded with Imperial arms and that they would explode if anything hid it. At dinner, Van tells Moonbay and Irvine what they have been doing. Van, Fiona and Zeke go off for a treasure hunt and wind up swimming. During his swim, Van finds the remains of a Zoid. Irvine goes to get his electromagnetic whip to get Zeke and just then more sleeper Guysacks start attacking. Irvine figures that it was a sleeper trap. The Guysacks they fought earlier were just decoys that led them into the ruins so that they could be surrounded very easily. The remains that Van saw were one of its captured prey that the sleepers successfully defeated. Moonbay took her cargo and went out the back with Van while Irvine made a complete 360 and came around. There is a fierce battle with just two zoids against more than a battalion of sleepers. Moonbay drives half of them her way. Then Van and Irvine show up again but this time Moonbay decides to jettison her cargo and she leaves. When the Guysacks start attacking the ammunition it blows them all up. Moonbay returns and asked Van to be her protector. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 06 | "Jump! Zeke!" | 2002-02-25 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Van and Co. are traveling along when they come across soldiers of the Helic Republic, who mistake them for Imperials, especially after registering the earlier explosion. They take them prisoner after a scuffle and impound the zoids. Irvine reveals his true resourcefulness when he uses a hidden trick to break himself out and Van along with him. Van promises to come back for the girls and takes off with Irvine for the Zoids. Zeke and the Liger merge and Van and Irvine take off through the base. The Republican soldiers mobilize several Petras and try to stop them. Out of the base, Van tries to lose the soldiers among the crevices, but when he's backed into a corner and goes for the ammunition he finds out the zoids were stripped of their firepower and is chastised by Irvine for his stupidity. Irvine tries to figure out a way to save his own skin when Van gets an idea and starts running the Liger at the walls of the canyon. He bounces from side to side gaining altitude, and finally clears the canyon, taking out two of the Republicans following them. He makes a try for the third, piloted by Capt. Herman. Irvine, showing that he's actually beginning to like the kid, offers a hand, and coordinates jumps with the Command Wolf so that at its peak jump from the canyon the Liger could jump off it and strike Herman who thought he was just high enough. The pilots of the Petras bail, and as he's floating down Herman makes a respectful note of Van's achievements. The episode ends with Major Schubaltz of the Empire preparing his forces for the assault on the Republicans at Red River, and Irvine scouting around. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 07 | "The Battle of Red River" | 2002-02-26 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| After beating the captain, Van and Zeke decide to go and rescue Moonbay and Fiona. When they barge in, they are told that they are working for the Republic. Both Moonbay and Fiona are told that they will be given cargo loaded with explosives that are to be detonated at Fire Bridge. Then Major Schubaltz and Minister Prozan have a discussion about the attack on the rebels. Major Schubaltz says that he will only attack if they are attacked first. At the battlefield, the Republic had its Godos' and Guysacks all lined up with the main captain in the green Gordos. On the Imperial front, they had all 50 Molgas lined up with their commander Major Schubaltz in the Dark Horn. Both captains step out, have a word with each other, and go back to their respective zoids. Then Minister Prozan has a word with Marcus, a soldier from the front line. He tells him to launch the first attack and make it look like the Republic did it. If he did, he would be promoted. Then Marcus tells Rosso to use the Pteras they got and attack their forces and in which would begin the battle. Then after a long wait, a Pteras attacks their side and the battle starts up again. Van is given strict orders to destroy Fire Bridge because the explosives didn't work and they had lost contact with the girls. At the gorge Irvine assists Van in making it across the River. Van destroys Fire Bridge. He makes it through the front lines of the Imperial Army and finally makes it to the Republican Side. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 08 | "The Road to the Republic" | 2002-02-27 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| After meeting success at Red River, the gang thinks that if they make it to the Republican Capital they may find a clue to Zoid Eve. Before they leave Captain Herman gives them a letter of introduction, while Irvine tries to take Zeke, but fails. Moonbay and the others stop by a near village to load up on supplies. Moonbay and the others go out to get some supplies. Irvine, Fiona and Zeke get separated from Van. Meanwhile, Fiona goes on a shopping spree for fruit and makes Irvine pay. Van and Moonbay get tailed by Rosso's gang and chased all over the village, and finally get caught. Irvine hears a gunshot in the village. He rushes and finds out that Moonbay and Van have been caught, they have been trapped and are tied around the Shield Liger's foot. Fiona tries to untie them but also gets caught, but Irvine manages to get Van and Moonbay free. Van and Zeke get in the Shield Liger. Then, Rosso shows up in his Red Horn and launches a devastating assault with all of his weapons on the Red Horn. Van survives after learning that he could put up a shield with the Shield Liger. He then rams the Red Horn and Rosso does the same. Van and the rest of the gang leave because the Imperial Army shows up. Rosso surrenders to the army only after telling everyone of his gang to leave. Rosso gets caught and tells Van not to get caught because he defeated the Desert Alcavaleno Gang. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 09 | "The Valley of the Monster" | 2002-02-28 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Van and the gang barely make it past the Imperial Army. The Shield Liger wasn't working too well either; its sights weren't aligned properly. Then the zoids started to do something weird, and Irvine finds out that they are in the Valley of the Rare Hertz. In this valley there is a pulse that gets emitted that makes the zoids not work properly. Zoids affected by the rare-hertz begin to take on violent tendencies and run out of control, usually destroying themselves. The proof was a very old Godos which was rusted and damaged beyond repair. They put on their pulse guards which protects their zoids from the rare-hertz. Unfortunately, when they are about to leave Zeke is also affected by the rare-hertz. He looks sick. But then he becomes completely controlled by the rare-hertz and rams the Gustav. He then fuses with the Shield Liger, damages Irvine's Command Wolf, and leaves. Moonbay fixes Irvine's Command Wolf. Van runs away after Irvine tells him he can't use his Command Wolf. He keeps walking until the Shield Liger's tracks disappear, he then notices the Shield Liger on the top the cliff. He climbs it and falls down, when he wakes up Fiona is there bandaging his wounds. Irvine's Command Wolf performance was downgraded by 30%. Van finds Zeke and the Shield Liger. Zeke fuses with the Shield Liger and attempts to kill Van. Then Irvine shows up and traps the Shield Liger against the side of the raised cliff. Zeke escapes and Van chases after him on the hover board. After a little organoid vs boy duel. Zeke falls down the cliff and Van catches him by the face. At this time, Zeke realizes that Van is a true friend and returns to normal. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 10 | "The Mountain of Dreams" | 2002-03-01 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| After getting Zeke back to normal, Van finds out that there is an old scientist that used to be very important in the Republican Army who lives here. He might give a lead about Zoid Eve. As they are going throughout the forest they hear a big explosion. They come to a house with a man frozen in ice. We also find out that Fiona likes here coffee salty. Later that morning, the old guy Dr. D is gone and is using Irvine's Command Wolf. He tells Irvine that the site of the main gun was off by exactly three degrees. Dr. D tricks Van into doing all of his housework. Otherwise, he won't tell him what Zoid Eve is. Dr. D then confronts Irvine and tricks him into doing more work. He tells both Van and Irvine to get in their zoids because the so called enemy was coming, his grandson on a bike. Irvine's finger slips thanks to Dr. D. Then the old guy takes them on a suicide mission to an unmanned Republican supply base that was protected by several sleeper Guysacks. Van and Irvine get trapped and Van asks Dr. D about Zoid Eve, the doc smoothly replies he never heard of it. Dr. D goes back home after raiding the supply base. All of a sudden a sleeper Guysack comes after them, it had followed Dr. D there. It blows his house into smithereens and then Moonbay shows up and destroys the Guysack. Then Van and Irvine show up after the place is already blown up. They all have a talk about Dr. D., Van, Irvine, Moonbay, Fiona, his grandson and Zeke. Dr. D's dream is to make it snow here so Van and Irvine help the Doctor make a machine that will make it snow. They launch the thing. It starts snowing, (not immediately but rather after a couple of minutes), but Fiona and Moonbay notice that the machine hadn't started. It was really snowing. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 11 | "The Fog at Isolina" | 2002-03-04 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| After making it snow, Van and the rest head off to Mount Iselina. Mount Iselina is known for being treacherous. Meanwhile, Viola and Jarro are making plans to attack and get revenge on Van. In the middle of the fog of Mount Isolina, Van stops everyone so he can get his flying papaya, Irvine and Fiona go after him and get lost. Moonbay tells Van about the Shadow Monster story. Then some sort of Shadow Monster appears, it turns out that it was just the shadow of a Godos that was being piloted by a girl named Rosa. Viola and Jarro strategize that those punks (Van) would be at the colony that is in the middle of Mt. Iselina. Rosa takes Van and Moonbay to her colony, and that is where Van stocks up on food. The villagers are surprised at what kind of strangers these people are. They are also fascinated at the zoids that they carry. Then, Van and Rosa talk for a while and exchange stories. Viola and Jarro get there; they didn't want to attack the village so they lured Van into a gorge with a lot of fog. Van quickly takes out Jarro the Pteras pilot with the same maneuver that he took out Captain Herman, with cliff to cliff jump maneuver. He takes out Viola with the help of Rosa and the Godos. Then Rosa and Viola have a sister to sister talk and Van is surprised that Viola is the sister of Rosa. Van covers for Viola and then leaves. Then, Moonbay and Van find Irvine and Fiona and they leave. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 12 | "The Black Organoid" | 2002-03-05 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| After getting away from the treacherous Mount Iselina, Van and the gang made it into Republican Territory. They make it to a village only after going through a zoid graveyard of 30 Guysacks. Van and the gang get in trouble as a few soldiers try to arrest them because they think it's someone else. Van and Fiona escape but Irvine, Moonbay and Zeke are caught. Then they are chased until they come across a boy lying down. The boy rescues them from the Republican Soldiers. More of them come, and as they are about to reach them, Fiona grabs the boy (who is just as old as Van/Fiona) and they make a break for it. Both Moonbay and Irvine are released due to a misunderstanding. Major Ford, leader and commander of this unit fills both Irvine and Moonbay in on the details. Two days ago, an entire sleeper battalion was whipped out because of one Saber Fang and a black organoid. A black organoid similar to Zeke had attacked them except it had wings instead of boosters. Raven (the boy) leads Van and Fiona to fresh water and asks them how is he can rescue their friends. Irvine gets to Van and warns him about Raven. By that time, the Republican Army has come in a small battalion of Godos'. Raven takes care of all of them. After that, Van takes on Raven and fights him. Raven is a superior fighter and defeats him but has enough sympathy to leave them be. He leaves Van with his broken pride. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 13 | "The Battle of Cronos" | 2002-03-06 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| After Van loses to Raven, he sits down and says he's waiting until Raven shows up. Some of the villagers warn them of the advancing Imperial Army. Major Marcus tells Major Schubaltz of the new objectives and different strike plans. Major Marcus's unit will attack and capture the Chronos Fortress and the Schubaltz unit will advance on to Mount Osa Base. After snooping and sneaking around Irvine learns even though the Republican Army is backed into a corner, they have a bold strategy. After several attempts by Moonbay and Fiona, Van still doesn't want to go. He is trying to pull the full potential of the Shield Liger out. Meanwhile, in the village Raven explains the strategy to Major Schubaltz, and asks him why they couldn't merge their forces together. It would be too overwhelming for the Republicans and might force the President to negotiate a ceasefire treaty between both nations. After his talk Raven leaves with his Saber Fang and Shadow. Van finds him and says that he wants a rematch. Irvine, as always, is standing by if Van needs help. For a couple of seconds, it looked like Van has the match under control, but then Raven, still being the superior pilot, quickly figures his strategy out and rips the dual-gun mounted on the Shield Liger off. Then Irvine comes charging in but Raven takes him out easily enough. Van puts up his Shield and charges for Raven; he hits his Saber and Raven goes down. He then fused with his black organoid, shadow. He takes Van out with one blow and after that Zeke is hurt pretty bad. The Chronos Fortress falls and blows itself up along with the part of Marcus's unit. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 14 | "Wake Up! Zeke!" | 2002-03-07 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| After Van loses the battle to Raven again, we find out that Zeke is hurt badly this time. Colonel Krueger knows its a huge blow losing the fortress, but he wants to know how much time it would take them to start advancing again. He estimates about 30 hours and tells Major Ford of Chronos Unit that he should get back to Mount Osa Base and prepare for a counter-attack. Meanwhile, at the deserted village Van tries to find help for Zeke. Dr. D shows up trying to find sunscreen and Van gets Dr. D to see Zeke. Dr. D. tells Van that to revive Zeke he would have to go to Mt. Osa and get a bright blue rock called Zoid Magnite. Irvine goes to the Republican Base to get armed with a multiple missile diffusion systems. He gets to test it out. Van and Moonbay make it to Mt. Osa Volcano and are struggling to keep alive and get the rock. In the meantime, Irvine takes on Raven and his Saber Fang with his multiple missile diffusion system. Van tells Moonbay he see the rock and she should lower him down. He gets the rock and gets pulled up and both Van and Moonbay get out of there with a second to spare. Irvine traps Raven with the needle missiles and Raven fuses with his organoid and takes out Irvine in a flash. Meanwhile, the combined forces of the Schubaltz and Marcus unit make their way to Mount Osa Base. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 15 | "Deploy the ZG!" | 2002-03-08 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| After Van finally revives Zeke with the Zoid Magnite, Zeke needs some time to recover. Major Schubaltz joins and the Imperial unit is delayed due to an avalanche of rocks. The delay is really severe they are delayed at least 2 hours. Marcus believes that it had to have been a fluke. Major Schubaltz on the other hand believes this was no fluke, it was the work of Colonel Krueger and that he knew exactly what he was doing. The severe losses due to the Chronos Fortress and this delay with rocks was no fluke. It startes to rain and the roof starts leaking where Van and the others are at. Colonel Krueger gives the command of Mt. Osa base to Major Ford while he pilots the ZG (Gojulas) onto the front lines. At only fifty-percent of its true capability, the ZG still has firepower equivalent to twelve zoids. Irvine sneaks into the base and sees just what they are planning for the upcoming battle against the Empire. The advancing Imperial unit is caught by surprise with several sleeper Guysacks. The Iron Kong, under the control of Major Schubaltz, takes out all the Guysacks with just one round of its 70mm chain guns. Up above them under the cover of thick storm clouds, four Pteras' under the command of Captain Herman from Red River Base comes here to assist with the battle. Back at the deserted village Van asks Dr. D where he can find Irvine. With some reluctance Dr. D tells Van that he is at the Mount Osa Base. Van quickly gets in the Shield Liger and runs off to rescue Irvine. While in the Mount Osa Base, Irvine and Colonel Krueger are having a pilot to pilot talk with each other about the zoids. Captain Herman arrives at the base with his Pteras squadron, but instead of Colonel Krueger, Captain Herman will be piloting the ZG. The advancing Imperial unit makes it to the Mount Osa Base and starts attacking them, but unfortunately, Colonel Krueger is caught in one of the rounds and is hurt. Fortunately, it's not bad. Herman jumps into the cockpit of the ZG and starts his one-zoid barrage against the Imperial Army. Van makes it to the base safely and rescues Irvine right before he falls to the ground. He also learns that he doesn't need Zeke to access the power of the Shield Liger, that he can do it on his own. As Raven looks on, Herman takes out most of the Imperial Army forces, until Major Schubaltz starts retreating. After that Herman grounds the Gojulas. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 16 | "New Helic City" | 2002-03-11 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| There's a parade in New Helic City celebrating the Republican's latest victory and Irvine, Moonbay, and Fiona watch it. Van and Zeke wander away and see a lone Imperial soldier being harassed by some Republicans. The Imperial soldier had escaped and was trying to get away from the city. Van feels that the right thing to do is to help him, so he and Zeke chase the Republicans away. The soldier runs away and drops a picture of him and his mother, and Van picks it up. He meets the others at a cafe and tells them what happened. Irvine leaves for a moment and Moonbay says that they should go to the institute that specializes in ancient ruins. Just then, a few trucks pull up with Republican guards in them and one of the them is the person that Van and Zeke had chased away (he had told the guards about how Van helped the Imperial soldier). The guards accuse him of being an Imperial spy and don't believe that Hermann gave them their letter that he wrote for them. Irvine drives up in a jeep, throws a smoke bomb, and Van and the others get in and drive away with Zeke running after them. Irvine drives until one of the tires on his jeep is shot, and then they start running. The run into a dead end, but then a guy wearing a frog mask that covers his whole head pops out of the sewer. He takes them down into the sewer while a balloon is released to distract the guards. Irvine takes off the guy's mask and he turns out to be Dr. D! Dr. D takes them to the institute and they break in. They explore the building and find a huge rock pillar with ancient writing on it, like the one Fiona was looking at when she first said 'Zoid Eve', but Fiona doesn't remember anything and just gets a headache. Then they are surrounded and captured by Republican soldiers. Meanwhile, a large iceberg is headed towards the city. A lady informs the President (President Camford) about the prisoners, Hermann (her son), and the letter (they can't confirm if it's real because Herman is away checking out the iceberg). A guard laughs at Van and tells him that Zeke has been taken away and will be dissected. Van yells at him and then the President and the lady enter. Van yells at them too, but finds out that the old lady is the President and that Hermann is her son. The President sees Dr. D with them and lets them out. Later, Van and Zeke meet up happily and the President asks Dr. D to help out the Republic in the war, but Dr. D doesn't want to be dragged into another one. Van and the others are looking at the city when they see explosions. The Imperial soldier Van helped has stolen a powerful modified Command Wolf and is fighting some Republic zoids on the streets. Later, Van and the others look at the damage and Van becomes really angry, drops the soldier's picture, and runs off with Zeke. Meanwhile, the soldier is running away from the city when he sees a Shield Liger ahead of him. Van yells at him and the soldier attacks out of fear. Van blocks the shots with his shield, and then knocks him over with his shield and the guy is thrown out of the cockpit. The soldier runs, but Van leaps out of his zoid and chases after him. He jumps on the guy screaming and asking how he could do that. The guy says he was afraid and just trying to get away. Van nearly punches him and starts crying. Irvine and the others arrive and Irvine yells for the soldier to leave or else, and he does. Dr. D tells Van that he did the right thing by helping the soldier, because a life is a life. It doesn't matter if it's a Republican or Imperial one. Van still cries, though. Meanwhile, Hermann, in a Pteras with two other Pteras units, checks out the iceberg and shoots it to make sure everything's okay, but then he sees oil near the bottom of it. Missiles are launched from the iceberg and snow appears. Then the two other Pteras units are shot down and Hermann tries to contact New Helic City, but can't (due to the jamming snow). Hermann is then shot down. Beneath the iceberg, there is a large Imperial submarine. Inside the submarine is Prozen, planning an attack on New Helic City. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 17 | "The Longest Night of the Republic" | 2002-03-12 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| As the Imperial Army is getting closer, Captain Herman is swimming really fast to warn their side about the attack from the Empire. While Van, Moonbay and Irvine are planning their next move to the Guerrial Plateau. They also find out a general in the Imperial Army is also looking for it and will pay lots of money if they have any leads. Madam President drops in on the Mount Osa base to check on how Colonel Kruegar is doing. Lieutenant O'Connell of the Red River Base wants to send out a search party to look for the Captain. But the president denies their request. Irvine, Van, Moonbay and Fiona are having dinner while the Lieutenant drops in and is really mad, he says that he will pay anyone enough money from the military to retire if they would steal a Pteras and go rescue the Captain. While on the Imperial Side, Admiral Prozen was making his daily report to the Imperial King Zeppelin. They talked for a bit on how he was going to deal the final blow to the rebels.

While at an Imperial Prison Cell, where the bandit Rosso has been residing for the past couple of weeks, is freed with the help of his comrades from the Desert Alcavaleno Gang. Since the death of the late emperor Zeppelin, Crown Prince Rudolph is next in line to become emperor of the Empire. Minister Prozen also mourns the loss of his emperor. Minister Prozen, as regent to Crown Prince Rudolph, would become emperor if anything were to happen to Prince Rudolph. The Desert Alcavaleno Gang is planning on kidnapping the Crown Prince Rudolph and asking for a ransom from the Empire for treating them the way the did. Late at night, Minister Prozen went to a shabby shop where a special forces operative commander by the name of Metlenick was. Metlenick had arranged three republican command wolves to assure that the assassination would look like the republicans had done it to re-new the war. Minister Prozen gives the details of how Rudolph would leave the palace. He would be flying in a Redler guarded by two or three Rev. Raptors basic models at that. The mission would be to take Rudolph out as quickly as possible and most importantly make it look like the Republicans had done it. Rosso and Viola are scoping out the palace while a person from the special forces operative spots them, and tells his boss Metlenick and tails them. Rosso and Viola make it to their hideout but Metlenick's group launches a missile right into their hideout, assuming that they are dead Metlenick resumes his mission. Fortunately, all four of them had gotten into their Molga. The Desert Alcavaleno gang finds Metlenick's hideout and they also find out they are doing a serious co-operative mission to make it look like the rebels had done it. They hit the Command Wolves and knock them all into a Frozen Combat System. Rosso and Viola attack the palace and get Prince Rudolph and head back to the Iron Kong. Rosso also learns Metlenick's mission was to take out the Prince Rudolph.

Van and the rest were going off to the Guerrial Ruins. All the while, Rosso and Viola were safe for the time being, they weren't chased by the Imperial Army. They planned to ransom the young prince to the highest bidder in the Empire. After such a long and hard struggle from the palace to the desert, Rudolph was fast asleep. Rosso and Viola were about to have dinner, but then Rudolph starts to escape. Van, Moonbay, Irvine and Fiona had made it to the Guerrial Plateau and started searching around the ruins. They had split up, Van/Fiona/Zeke went one way and Moonbay/Irvine went around the other way. They had learned that someone had recently been here, after crossing a trapped line, Irvine and Moonbay were chased all over the ruins by a Rev Raptor. Then the same had happened to Van, Fiona and Zeke. Barely hiding from the Rev Raptor, Irvine learned the movements of these zoids were sluggish and they had to be sleeper zoids, later he was able to confirm that by spotting its computer in the cockpit. Irvine also finds out that they had to be programmed not to fire, because it would damage the ruins. Vna and Fiona were still running from the Rev Rapter and were cornered by the Rapter, they jumped off the cliff and the Shield Liger w/Zeke had rescued them. Then with a few swift moves, Van takes out all the Rev Raptors with the Liger's shield. Meanwhile, Rooso is having an exchange with Metlenick, Rudolph for money. He gets the money but throws it back and takes Rudolph again. Viola backs them up and they make a safe escape. Meanwhile at the ruins, after touching one of the stone tablets, Fiona remembers something called Death Saurer.

Later Van and the rest were talking about how it was a waste of time, and Irvine brings up a good point about how Fiona remembered something called Death Saurer. Van kicks a rock in the bush and finds a boy named Rudolph. Rosso and Viola can't find Rudolph anywhere and went searching for him. Moonbay tries to swindle Rudolph out of his Imperial Ring but Van cancels that transaction. While at the Imperial Palace, Prozen gives a magnificent speech on how, if Prince Rudolph doesn't return before the funeral of the late emperor Zepplin, he would take office. A very fast zoid attacks through the cover of the forest, Viola goes to check it out and it turns out it's Raven in a Geno Saurer (purple/dark purple/black). Rosso was coming to but he'd be a little late. Rudolph was just leaving and was stopped when Fiona creeped everyone out with her little forewarning. Raven shows up and launches his Charged Particle Cannon at Viola and launches another one between the Command Wolf and Shield Liger knocking them down. Raven attacks Van and Irvine, but it proves too much for our young heroes. He zoid is much stronger than any of theirs. The Shield Liger's ultimate move had no effect against the Charged Particle Cannon. Rosso and Viola show up in the Iron Kong and try to hold off Raven so that Van could escape. Raven destroys the Iron Kong and then stops his pursuit of Van and Rudolph. He said it would be more challenging if he gave them a head start. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

They find a bunch of Imperial Redlers with their Zoid Cores ripped out and Dr. D believes the Death Saurer was responsible for the damage and ruins of the Redlers. Dr. D tells everyone about the Legend of Beast of Destruction, the Death Saurer. It goes: One Death Saurer, destroyed a platoon of 1,000 zoids and wiped out a whole nation in one night. They figured that Raven has the Death Saurer, and is using its power to destroy the Redlers. In the middle of the night, Van couldn't sleep because of the Death Saurer and Rudolph was about to run away. He was stopped as Van stood in his way.

Stinger makes a deal with Metelinick in which he'll help with the destruction of the cocky-group of punks with the organoid. Rudolph makes it over to where Van had gone off, by some nearby ruins. Denis was given the Red Guysack, to keep an eye on Van, and do whatever is necessary to keep him away from the Whirlwind of Light. Meanwhile, Stinger makes a plan, in which the 2 remaining Dark Horns will attack him in order to fool Moonbay and the others so they would trust him. In return he would poison their food so they would be paralyzed for a number of days. His plan works perfectly, except Rudolph doesn't drink the soup he just gets caught. At the ruins, Van starts to hear Fiona's voice and she gives him a message to go back, while on the move Van is caught off guard by the Red Guysack. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

They split up, and shortly after that, it turns out that Rudolph snuck into the Blade Liger so he could go with Van. At the Imperial base along Van's path, Major Karl Schubaltz is training with three black Redlers. He does some impressive maneuvering and shooting in his modified Saber Fang. Later, he and some other Imperial officer are talking about Prozen and what they think about the Empire. Then they go into the base, where they detect Van's Blade Liger running along in the distance. Karl recognizes Zeke from when Van, in the Shield Liger, and the organoid ran past him in a battle. Black Redlers are sent out to attack Van, and Fiona manages to contact the base. Rudolph talks to them, and Karl, being the only smart person in the ENTIRE Imperial army, recognizes that Rudolph is not a fake. Rudolph remembers Karl, and they start talking, but the rest of the Imperial officers still think he's a fake. They cut off the transmission and seize Karl to restrain him. Meanwhile, Irvine and Moonbay wonder if Van and the others are alright, and Raven destroys some more zoids and moves deeper into Republican territory. Shadow sees something in the sky, which turns out to be the two Storm Sworders from before. The two pilots, which are really Rosso and Viola, get a transmission from Dr. D and the Republican officers telling them to come back, but they turn off their radios and basically steal the two zoids. They then fly off at top speed to find Rudolph. Van's trying the best he can to fight the black Redlers, but he's not doing to well. Fiona tells him that they sould seek cover in the forest, so Van heads for it. Zeke gets hit while trying to follow, and Van stops to go back for him. Then three Redlers are about to attack him head-on, but another one tries to attack Van from behind. When it's about to hit him, it gets shot down by none other than the two Storm Sworders. The two pilots introduce themselves as the heroes of the sky, and then proceed to tear up all the Redlers. Van runs away, followed by the two Storm Sworders, who contact Van and ask him if Rudolph is okay. Van and the others don't recognize the two pilots, even though it's obvious who they are. The Imperial officers at the base want to go after Van, but Karl breaks away and hits the self-destruct button for the base, letting Van get away. Van then meets up with Irvine and Moonbay, and Irvine says that he was right and Van was wrong because Van was attacked on the route he took, so now they have to go where Irvine thinks they should.

Famous quotes containing the word season:
“The hour of the waning of love has beset us,
And weary and worn are our sad souls now;
Let us part, ere the season of passion forget us,
With a kiss and a tear on thy drooping brow.”
