"and the war is over for now." "Raven but I have a sneaking suspicion that I'll hear from him again." "we're heading for the Garreal Ruins on our continuing quest for the Zoid Eve." "0)}The Defense of the City" "Come on!" "You're such a wuss!" "Sieg." "what do you figure?" "How many fish am I going to catch for dinner?" "I wanna catch some too!" "would you?" "you two with your scarred Zoid!" "When do you think we will be heading to the Garreal Ruins?" "right?" "Huh?" "Don't be so casual about this." "You know the Empire is also looking for the Zoid Eve." "all of our hard work would have been for nothing!" "the war just ended." "Those Imperial guys have their hands full with the Emperor's funeral and getting reorganized." "right?" "We've got lots of time." "Your Highness." "You should eat your dinner." "I can't." "Not yet." "My subjects are my number one priority right now." "I'm sure people are worried about the future of the Empire." "Prince Rudolph." "my first task is to reassure the subjects of this great land." "I must make it clear to them that my grandfather's vision of a glorious future for the Empire has not changed." "I can still remember the day that grandfather handed me this royal signal ring." "Grandfather... this whole area will be filled with attendees." "I still can't believe that he's actually gone." "but the Emperor was more like a father to me." "Lord Prozen." "You really do not have the luxury of wallowing in grief like the rest of us." "Prince Rudolph is still very young." "As regent the burden of carrying out the responsibilities rest on your shoulders." "I am well aware of my responsibilities as regent." "I will make every effort and do my utmost to run a regency government guide Prince Rudolph in the right direction." "Carrying on the wishes of the late Emperor is the way that I know how to repay him for all that he has done for me." "I feel like a man again." "I mean the food in prison was worst than the sloppy at the feet of pig." "I care myself lucky to have pals like you." "Thanks a bunch for bursting me out." "Rosso." "It's making you way too thankful." "Or maybe that was all that quality time he spent in prison that made him a bit softy." "cut it out!" "Rosso?" "!" "I've got something I wanna show you." "I am impressed." "How that you managed to get a hold of such a fabulous machine?" "That's a trade secret." "We got it to celebrate your release." "So do you like it?" "and I even like the color." "Down to business what exactly are you guys planning here?" "I mean I doubt you guys got a hold of this for the sake of decoration." "The plan is to kidnap Prince Rudolph and get rich on the ransom." "Just think of it as our little way of getting back at the Empire for using us and then turning around and betraying us." "This will be our opportunity for some big time payback." "Are you in?" "huh?" "Seems interesting..." "I can't believe we're eating can food again." "and couldn't even come up with one?" "What a waste of time!" "that's all." "How much further is it for the Garreal Ruins from here?" "I'd say probably about four more days." "But that's assuming Van doesn't lead us off track in search of food again like he did today." "I don't mind so much." "All that I wanna do is find out about myself." "Fiine." "Everything will be fine." "You got all freaked out just by looking at that tablet." "Once we get to the Ruins something is bound to trigger your memory." "sir." "Not a problem." "Metlenick?" "I've made arrangements for a Command Wolf for the mission." "Very good." "The most important thing is to make sure it looks like the Republicans are responsible for it." "right?" "playing it simple." "Any new information?" "Everything is set according to schedule." "Rudolph will leave the Palace tomorrow evening with me to attend the funeral." "That's when we attack." "at that." "Your team shouldn't have any problems taking those out." "If they believe that Rudolph was assassinated by a faction from the Republic then we will be able to take control of the government with their blessing." "Metlenick." "sir!" "The prince must be sacrificed for the continuing glory of the Empire." "See the Royal Emblem?" "That's Rudolph's Redler." "Rudolph is scheduled to head out for Guygulos in that thing tonight." "Is he gonna pilot the Redler himself?" "Are you joking?" "He has his own special pilot assigned to him." "The Redler had to be modified as a two seater." "The plan is that we strike when Rudolph appears here." "three at the most." "It's an easy job." "I still wanna a scope of the palace too." "huh?" "It looks like it's not just Red Raptors." "but it's hard to see how many there are from here." "We'll be in there in five minutes." "it will be long gone with the little prince took safely under our arms." "we're going to have to do it in three." "it will be one for the history books." "maybe." "Too bad we will never be able to take credit for it." "This is Dennis." "Go for base." "I have visual contact of two suspicious individuals scoping out the palace." "My first impression is that they are coming." "you make sure to keep an eye on them." "I'll head over to you." "Roger." "Captain?" "Rosso." "I know." "Someone's been tailing us since we left the palace." "It's only proper to treat ourt guest with hospitality." "I suppose you're right." "are you reading me?" "How is that taking me home before going?" "someone is tagging along." "We'll be bringing a guest pack with us." "I want you to come up with a way to entertain him." "Where is a good place?" "they are kind all right." "But they're just petty tugs." "sir?" "they call themselves the "Desert Alcabaleno" gang." "do you?" "You can't afford to take any chances." "could very easily mess everything up for us." "Rodo." "Roger that." "Who do those guys think they are firing off a missile like that?" "Who do you think they are?" "What do you say we go and try to figure that out?" "I know that I have to be strong... but I'm gonna be all alone now." "we must prepare to depart." "Right." "You're sure they're Imperial?" "Yes." "The radios and weapons they're carrying are the type used by special operations units." "But this Zoid they're using is definitely a Republican Command Wolf." "this is some kind of covered up." "doesn't it?" "who knows?" "we can be sure of one thing: they're working on behalf of the Empire." "what do you say we go introduce ourselves?" "Remember to wait for the moment that Rudolph gets into the Redler." "We'll concentrate our fire on him at that point." "All right?" "Yes!" "Ok!" "Let's go!" "You bunch of motherless Neanderthals!" "They let us believe we hit them so they could hit us with a sneak attack." "Did you catch what's on their faces or was I flying too fast?" "that sure ought to teach them not to mess with us." "we're going to have to chance our plan a little." "Change our plan?" "Yep." "We're close enough to the palace that they would have heard the explosion just now so guards are probably being dispatched this way." "just as they are short of security." "Not to mention that considering all of the panic Rudolph's departure time will be altered." "Do we have any idea what caused that explosion just now?" "It's being investigated right now." "Until we're properly upright for the current situation and received an indication that it's safe for you to depart we will wait here." "A downed Command Wolf?" "Don't tell me the Republican operatives were in the area?" "the palace is under attack." "Do you copy?" "We're under attack." "what it" "Roger." "I'd bet this Dark Horn it's that gang attacking the palace." "I don't doubt it." "I'd even bet my dinner on it." "No one is taking that bet because we all agree." "Now hurry up because we're going to turn that place into a war zone." "Bianco!" "Jarro!" "I want you guys to stand guard over here and keep them off our backs." "Roger that." "I copy that." "Viola and I are hitting into the palace." "OK." "They're coming." "Fire when ready." "Nobody gets in here!" "Don't move." "Calmly put down your weapons." "lady!" "They're good boys." "you traitors!" "I am Rudolph Gerhard Zeppelin III!" "0 didn't you?" "0" "0" "I'll wipe you all off the face of this planet." "Those guys are actually after Rudolph..." "This is it!" "Rosso!" "We better move out of here quick." "All right!" "Let's get out of here!" "Prozen here." "There's been an incident." "The Prince Rudolph has been kidnapped." "He has been kidnapped?" "We've found the remains of a Command Wolf nearby." "We can't say for sure but our first thought was that it looks like- huh?" "get me the details." "sir!" "huh?" "Metlenick." "and we'll end up slowing you down." "He better go on ahead of us." "Those guys who wanted to assassinate Rudolph aren't going to just sit around." "They're going to come after us with everything they've got." "Rosso." "You can't just hang around here!" "Rosso?" "The Garreal Ruins are just over those mountains." "Zoid Eve... 92.286)}Preview" "Hi!" "Fiine here!" "We finally make it to the Garreal Ruins." "the Imperial Army must have already been there." "As we get chased around by the Sleepers Zoids that were left to guard the ruins a frightening image creeps into my mind:" "The Death Saurer." "Zoids episode 20:" "The Resurrection Monster."
