EPISODE VIII: DOUBLE DRAGON

May 20th, 2044


Arlanda Airport, outside Stockholm

“Johan, Tanja”, Casper yelled in the communicator, while C.A.T was fighting the dragon Kradon on the Arlanda Airport runway. “Prepare another fly-by. Peter, you join me on the other side. We’ll try again to make it come to us.” The others acknowledged the order and flew around the green, winged, long-necked lizard. Kradon screeched loudly as two of the jets used their lasers to pummel it back, but they flew past it. Screeching at them, Kradon exhaled a cone of fire in their direction.
“Look out!” Tanja shouted, and she together with Johan made a sharp turn to the side to avoid the flames. Just as the flames were gone, Peter and Casper rushed right at Kradon and fired their super-powered missiles. The missiles impacted the dragon in the chest, and the sheer force knocked it down on its back. As the four jets took their advantage and ravaged it with lasers, the monster got up and roared in pain, its chest bleeding.
“All right”, Casper said in triumph. “Let’s finish it off! All jets, fire at will!” All the jets rushed at Kradon, but the monster suddenly vanished into thin air! C.A.T’s shots impacted the ground, creating a series of craters near the runway. As C.A.T circled the area, searching for their foe, Johan thought.
“Where was that thing from…?”

C.A.T HQ, Stefansborg, Sweden

”Vanished, you say?” Emelie asked when C.A.T relayed their report about the battle to her. Casper nodded.
“The dragon just popped away when we were beginning to beat it”, Casper said. “I have no idea what it’s about.”
“It could have something to do with that weird monster girl Peter and Tanja always go on about”, Johan said. “Right, Peter?”
“It could, yes”, Peter nodded. Silently, he communicated with Pole. Do you think so?
No, I don’t. There was some kind of aura surrounding Flamosaurus, Kraken, Greenmons and Goruo, but this dragon had nothing of it. I wonder where it came from.
Their conversation was halted when the C.A.T control room’s main screen flashed, indicating a message.
“What is it?” Emelie asked when a lower C.A.T operative came on screen.
“Hello, Captain Svärd”, he said. “We got a report from an excavation crew where they said they had found a strange ruin inside a cave. The ruin contains inscriptions that resemble the dragon the main force fought earlier today.”
“What!?” Emelie exclaimed. “Where are you?”
“Kiruna”, the operative replied. “I’ll mark it on the Catmap.” Emelie closed the screen and turned to the C.A.T team.
“C.A.T”, she said. “You’re going to Kiruna!”

May 21st, 2044

Kiruna, north Sweden

Casper yawned loudly.
“Ugh… why do we have to do this so early?” he muttered. “We spent the night getting here.”
“Oh come on”, Tanja snapped. “It didn’t take THAT long. I’m just happy the Catmap became useful for once.” The Catmap was a function of the C.A.T members’ special all-purpose communication devices, where a specific point would be pinpointed on the map screen for anybody authorized for that information. Facts could be written on these beacons, and the map could be zoomed in and out at will. More often than not, these beacons were used by the C.A.T team when off-duty, pinpointing a pizzeria, a party, or something else.
“Oh well”, Johan sighed. “Let’s find this ruin. You know, this is eerily similar to the Skodd scenario.”
“Yeah”, Peter nodded. “I think we ought to keep our precious little Casper outta there, him being so scared of the dark and all.”
“Shut up, Peter”, Casper muttered. “You can go first.” Peter smiled widely.
“You’re the boss”, he said.

Inside the cave, they met up with some excavation workers. They saw a tunnel leading deeper in.
“’Allo”, Casper said to one of the workers. “You wouldn’t happen to be ancient monster people, would you? I’ve had my fill already.”
“Uh”, one of the workers said, confused. “Not really, far as I know. You’re the C.A.T team then?”
“Yep”, Johan nodded. “We got a report about a kinda temple?”
“Yeah”, the worker nodded. “If you follow that tunnel there, you’ll come to a large cavern with a ruin in it. We found it shortly after that dragon had appeared. There’s got to be some connection.”
“Okay”, Casper said. “Let’s go!”
A while later, they came to the end of the tunnel. Astonished, they witnessed a gigantic cave in front of them. In the cave, they saw a big temple, at least a hundred meters high and almost as wide. Everywhere on the temple’s exterior, they saw carvings or statues resembling two different dragons. One resembled the one they fought earlier on Arlanda, but the other looked bigger and more menacing.
“What is this…?” Tanja mumbled. “It’s connected to the monster, but how?”
“We might find out inside”, Peter suggested. The others nodded in tandem, and so the C.A.T team entered the huge ruin.
Inside, they found what appeared to be two extremely wide pillars, but when they looked at one they saw that it was hollow and had a big hole in its side. The other was intact, though. On the walls of these two strange rooms, they saw runes. The team turned to Johan, who had some interest in runes. He examined them.
“Let’s see, it says…
Kradon the She, Keela the He, must trapped here forever be. Will Kradon flee, leave her free, or Keela shall extinguish thee.”

“Oh dear”, Casper said. “Which one did we meet?”
“We met Kradon”, Johan muttered.
“So what should we do?” Tanja asked.
“We need to trap her again”, Peter said. “We could use the experimental freeze cannons.”
“Great!” Casper said. “Good idea, Peter! We’ll freeze her and return her here!”
“It’s a plan, then”, Johan nodded. “Let’s find our scaly friend.”

Luleå, north Sweden

Kradon teleported back into human sight that night. Screeching loudly, it attacked Luleå in north Sweden. People fled before the creature as it stepped on houses and set entire city blocks on fire with its breath. Swedish army tanks were on their way, but it looked as if Luleå would be decimated soon.
“C.A.T! SCATTER!” Casper shouted in the comlink, and the C.A.T fighter jets spread out around the dragon. Kradon screeched again, confused, and breathed fire at her attackers. Tanja nimbly dodged the flames, and she and Johan attacked Kradon from the front with the laser guns. Kradon enclosed her front body in her large wings, and the durable wings easily absorbed the blows.
However, it was a trap. From behind, Peter and Casper released blue beams from their fighters upon Kradon. When they hit her, she began to turn blue, until she finally stopped moving.
“WE DID IT!” Casper shouted in triumph as the inanimate dragon stood, its body frozen. C.A.T prepared to fire the grappling hooks with which their jets would take Kradon back to her temple.
However, fate wished differently. The tanks had arrived, and they knew nothing of C.A.T’s plan. They opened fire on the frozen dragon, whose head gave in to the weapons. Kradon, unable to defend herself, fell to the ravaging fire of the tanks.
“Oh, that’s just ironic”, Johan said. “Stupid army.”
“Stupid US”, Tanja corrected him. “We should have notified them.”
“We have to go to Kiruna, fast”, Casper said. “Keela should be awakening soon. We have to stop him.”
“Let’s roll”, Peter said, and C.A.T turned around and began a high-speed flight to Kiruna.

Kiruna, north Sweden

Before long, the wall to Keela’s containment chamber collapsed, and the dragon stepped out.
Beloved, he thought. I can’t feel you anymore... where are you? Have the humans slain you? They must have... the curse does not allow me to awaken whilst you are alive.
I will kill them. I will kill them all. Kradon, beloved, I shall avenge you!
Keela looked up into the hole at the top of the cave. He then warmed his wings up before flying out. His mission was clear. He would kill everything.

Kiruna’s population was on the run, and Keela was after them. He didn’t care about sheer destruction, he wanted to kill. Landing on the road, in front of a mass of cars, he breathed a powerful cone of fire at them. The humans inside were completely incinerated, and all that was left was melted masses of metal. Turning around, he fired at more humans, also setting the forest on fire.
Soon, C.A.T arrived in their jets. Casper flew in the front, as usual.
“Shit”, he swore. “He’s already killed people!”
“We have to defeat him quickly”, Tanja said. “Otherwise, he’ll just move on doing this.”
“What about that fire?” Peter asked.
“Leave it to me”, Johan said. He flew to the fire and used the freeze ray, easily stopping the flames. The rest of C.A.T attacked Keela, using their missiles. The dragon turned around to see who dared to hurt him.
“SCATTER!” Casper shouted, but it was too late. Keela fired a jet of flames at the fighters, and although Casper and Tanja dodged it, Peter was caught in the flames and sent plummeting to the ground.
“Peter? PETER, RESPOND!” Tanja shouted in the communicator. “Are you okay? Hello?”
“I’m fine”, came the weak response. “You concentrate on Keela, I’ll get myself to safety.
“All right”, Casper said. “Be careful down there, he steps around an awful lot.”
But Peter hadn’t in his mind to run. Putting his left forearm up in the air, and the right hand on the bracelet on his left arm, he transformed into Ultraman Pole. Now the real battle began!
“Look, it’s Ultraman!” Johan said in delight. “Maybe we can win, after all!”
Ultraman Pole stood ready to attack. Keela looked at him, surprised at this new foe, but was prepared to fight him at full strength.
Finally, Pole attacked. He jumped high up in the air and delivered a flying kick to Keela’s head. The dragon was sent backing by the blow, and Pole got ready to attack again.
However, he underestimated Keela. The monster ran up and tackled Pole, who was so unprepared he tumbled back, flattening trees as he went. He got up soon, though, and blocked a series of strikes from the monster. He then grabbed Keela’s arm and did a judo-style toss, smashing the dragon down on the ground. Taking the advantage, he raised his right fist, charging it with energy. He then slammed Keela’s stomach, causing an explosion.
The dragon was not done yet. Keela fired a jet of flames at Pole, who got it in his face, and fell backwards. As the two fighters rose, they rushed at each other and grappled for a while, until Keela managed to toss Pole down again. The hero, unwilling to give up, jumped to his feet and crossed his arms over his chest. Then, he held his right palm forward, releasing a few, small, slow-moving energy balls in different directions.
Keela fell for the trap, as he could not see the small energy balls. He walked right into one of Pole’s Polium Mines, which exploded violently. The dragon was knocked back, right into a second mine, which sent him flying down. Deciding to finish the battle, Pole waited until his foe got up. He then held his arms forward, palms together, and crossed his arms like an X, firing his Polium Ray. Keela was hit by the beam head-on, and exploded. The dragon was no more.
As Peter rejoined C.A.T and they all flew home, somebody stepped out of the shadows. It was the white-clothed girl from earlier.
“Not bad, humans”, she muttered in a cold, snakelike voice lacking all emotion. “But I have a back-up plan. Though you defeated my champion, Goruo, and displayed great power against these ancient beings, you have no chance against me anymore.” And with those words, even if nobody heard her, she vanished.
