EPISODE XVII: SPACE HORROR RETURNS August 3rd, 2044 Peter’s Home, Stefansborg That wasn’t smooth, Pole said. So you’ve been saying for the past few days, Peter replied sharply. And if you haven’t noticed, I still think I was right. Had we been in different occupations, I’d be all over Tanja, but a relationship would result in poor judgment in battle. Still wasn’t smooth. In combat school, I used to have this nice romance with one of the young Ultrawomen. What, you have women too? Of course. Earth doesn’t see much of them because most stay back in M78, but many join Ultra Mother as healers all over the universe. I see. Well, we’ve got a day off… how should we waste it? We could always take a swing out in space. Yeah, that’s a plan. Let’s go! Some miles away from Earth’s atmosphere Pole flew right out of the Earth’s sky into space, stylishly spinning around happy to move freely. But do tell me, how’d it end up with that girl? It’s pretty hard to imagine Ultrans doing… normal stuff… Oh, Beth? It ended kind of badly. She entered this team dedicated to collecting stray space monsters. I ended up, as you know, as a Protector. I defend planets. Heh, how ironic. I stop a relationship because we share the job, you stop it because your job differs. I must fail to detect the comedy in that, Pole muttered as he flew past the moon and continued into space. C.A.T HQ, Stefansborg Emelie sighed. Sometimes she wondered why she put up with her job. She was the one forced to deal with the press, the pressure, the criticism and the boring, boring paperwork. As she flipped away another paper, she considered for the third time today to just burn the rest of it, resign and spend her time on something more interesting, like bird watching. But if she’d start bird watching, who would do the monster watching? “Captain!” she heard Tanja say, and sighed. Evidently, Tanja had been doing that annoying monster watching thing too. “What is it?” she asked as Tanja entered the room. “Some kind of comet suddenly appeared. It’s headed straight for us!” Tanja held out a paper showing a picture of the threat. “That’s an awfully fast comet, there”, Emelie mumbled. “Such a coincidence it’s going to hit Earth, of all places… after more than one Flamosaurus also hit us.” “So you think it’s a monster?” Tanja asked. Emelie nodded. “I’ll call up the government. We’ll be forced to use the Cat Lash.” The Cat Lash was a satellite placed over Stefansborg, able to fire a powerful beam of ionized particles, called quite predictably an Ion Cannon. “Don’t you think that’s a bit too much?” Tanja gulped. “No”, her captain replied. “It’s just the firepower we need. Now shoo!” Space, in the vicinity of Mars Pole continued to fly rather aimlessly through space, oblivious to the new threat looming over Sweden. Come on, do another loop, Peter said happily. Pole obliged, doing the loop, and then saw a small space rock. Holding his hands to his sides, he set up for his Polium Rain attack, but fired only one energy bolt, blowing the little stone up. The other Ultrans never seem to do this kind of thing. I can’t imagine why, it’s really relaxing. They don’t? No, they’re so deadly serious it’s boring… hey, what’s that? A glowing, flaming object sped past him suddenly. Pole decided to take pursuit and flew after the object. It’s flying towards Earth! Don’t let it get there! Quiet, let me concentrate! He increased his speed, beginning to gain on the object… …suddenly a bright blue beam hit the blazing object, knocking it from its path and sending it spinning down onto the moon, impacting in some kind of green explosion. C.A.T HQ, Stefansborg “Target hit”, Casper smiled. “I’m such a great marksman.” “Is the target DESTROYED?” clarified Emelie. “It spun down on the moon. It’s not visible.” “So find it!” Emelie boomed. “I have another of my suspicions, and I’m usually right.” “All right, all right”, Casper said and started a scan. Moon Surface Pole landed on the surface and looked around. The object, whatever it was, had apparently been swatted out on the ground, covering it in some kind of green slime. It was rather confusing, but apparently the threat was gone. That’s when the unbelievable happened. The slime began to move to become a mass in the center. Pole, surprised, jumped away from the field and landed on a cliff nearby. Soon, the mass assumed a form, and started to shift in color and substance. Pole watched as a new monster formed in front of him! The creature had two big, fleshy legs, but above that was a rocklike body, shaped vaguely like the head of a tyrannosaur. Two small antennae on its “nose” served as eyes. The giant mouth that made a very large part of its body opened up, revealing a big, toothy black hole, and roared a loud, intense roar. Peginera… Pole muttered. You know what it is? Peter asked. It’s Peginera. A space monster Ultraseven once encountered. Rather dangerous. Then we have to defeat it here, don’t we? That’s the plan! But just as he said so, Peginera roared again and jumped up quickly, flying out towards deep space and turning to Earth. Pole reacted directly, firing some bolts of his Polium Rain upon the beast. The attack connected, and Peginera fell down to the moon’s surface again. The monster arose, angered, and turned to its foe. As Pole struck a battle pose, Peginera charged forward, ramming Pole. He held out his forearms, managing to deflect the blow, but Peginera suddenly split its bottom jaw into two, and grabbed Pole with these new “arms”, tossing him away. Pole rolled for a while before getting up and unleashing his Polium Rain on Peginera again, hitting the monster again and again with explosive energy beams. This did not finish it, though, and Peginera suddenly fired a series of green energy blasts from its mouth, forcing Pole to cross his arms over his chest, emitting the Soul Shield, a force field protecting him from the blasts. As he prepared to attack again, Peginera made a fast jump and flew off towards Earth. Pole was fast to follow, but the monster was simply too fast for him. C.A.T HQ, Stefansborg “Captain”, Johan said, “The object has appeared. It’s on its way here again!” “Identify”, Emelie boomed. A blurred picture of Peginera came on screen. “Monster has been identified as Peginera”, Taiki informed, “First encountered by DEUS twenty years ago.” “Well, fire again!” Emelie yelled. “Destroy it before it enters the atmosphere!” “Can’t, Captain”, Casper said nervously. “Why?” Emelie said impatiently. “Ultraman’s right behind it…” “Damn”, Emelie swore. “As much as I like Ultraman, this is just impractical.” “Captain”, Tanja said, “It’s headed right for Stefansborg!” “All right, we’ll try to help Ultraman instead. Ready one of the Capsule monsters. We’ll try to lead it from the civilized areas.” Just beneath atmosphere, above Stefansborg Peginera roared as it entered atmosphere, with Pole close behind. As he came closer, the monster released a lump of slime at him. He avoided it, but that cost him precious time. Then suddenly, another monster entered the fray. It looked like a giant pteranodon, and attempted to slam into Peginera. It missed, but tried again and again, once more with unsuccessful results. It then charged once more towards its foe, but this time fired a gray, tornado-like blast at it. The attack connected, and Peginera was sent spinning down to Earth uncontrollably. Surface next to Stefansborg “Fuumono succeeded!” Tanja cheered. “Peginera’s crashing down around here”, Casper said. “We better be ready to fight.” Soon, Peginera was seen spinning downwards before landing in a big, big crash, sending a cloud of dirt and dust flying over the landscape. Pole landed soon after, followed by Fuumono. The Ultran and the capsule monster seemed to nod in gratitude to each other, when suddenly the dust cleared. Peginera had once again been reduced to a green mass of slime, but like before, it reformed into its true form once more. That thing’s unkillable! Pole moaned. What do we do now? Peginera stepped forward, angered and ready to attack, when Fuumono started to flap his wings intensely, generating a windstorm. Very soon, Peginera was knocked off his feet, and C.A.T took the opportunity to fire their weaponry upon the monster. The effort was in vain, as Peginera rose again, completely unharmed. To top it all, the capsule monster vanished in a field of sparks, its energy depleted. “What do we do now?” Taiki said. “Peginera’s impossible to kill!” Peginera closed in on Pole, whose color timer was blinking. The monster waved its split bottom jaw’s arm-like parts and roared triumphantly. Pole kicked Peginera’s nose, then grabbed it and tossed it to the side. The monster rose and fired a big lump of slime at Pole, who was hit by it. The slime held him in place, unable to move, and Peginera began slamming him repeatedly. C.A.T fired a new weapon at Pole, a heat wave that melted the slime away. Pole arose, just as Peginera rammed into him, downing the Ultran. Suddenly, Peginera was hit by something from the sky. As everyone looked, they saw another monster land near Peginera. It was Bogara, the Monster Princess! “Bogara…?” Pole said. “You fiend! You swore to leave Earth alone!” Bogara did not respond. Peginera turned its attention on this new foe and charged. Bogara skillfully dodged the attack and punched her foe away, but Peginera made a U-turn and charged again. Bogara hit it with a spinning kick, downing Peginera. Pole stood amazed, as Bogara had not displayed such fighting skills when she battled him and Iron. Bogara let the small, wing-like openings on her back grow out with her arms, forming a gigantic, toothy mouth like she had done on Mars. She then rushed at Peginera, who was too startled to avoid her, and enveloped it in the “wings”. Pole watched as Peginera seemed to shrink down inside, emitting painful screams, until there was simply nothing there. The “wings” reformed to their original state again, and Bogara turned to Pole. Pole took a battle stance, tiredly trying to catch his breath, but she just looked at him and vanished. As Peter later began his walk home, having transformed back at the site of battle, he soon saw someone watching him up ahead. As he looked, he recognized Bogara’s human self, dressed in her usual white outfit. However, she looked as if she was a few years older, now looking like around 20 years old. She actually looked a bit cute. “You… what are YOU doing here?” he yelled. She just approached him, calmly smiling, prompting Peter to take a few steps back until he accidentally bumped into a light post. Bogara then reached him, and promptly embraced and kissed him. “Uh… what?” he managed to say when she finally released him. Bogara kept smiling, before she finally gave her reply. “I love you.” |
