VOLTES V VERSUS

VOLTRON

The godaikin wars

VOLUME .03

The Voltes Team and Dr. Hook watched the information retrieved by the legendary armored enforcer Shadier in Big Falcon's conference

hall:

Here they learned almost everything about Voltron and the Voltron Force; about Planet Arus and its sister Planet Pollux; about King Alfor and his noble house; about King Zarkon, Prince Lotor and Planet

Doom and its counter part, the Drule Empire.

They even learned about Voltron's proud heritage: Long before the Galaxy Alliance came to existence, Voltron was a haughty mechanoid,

famous for challenging different super robots from all galaxies.

Infact, it was too proud and remorseless, Voltron does not care if ever it destroys a giant robot who was the sole defender of its

respected planet.

Until, a beautiful space goddess punished the arrogant Voltron; Using her magic, Voltron was disassembled into five parts&These became

the Voltron Lions.

Then a league of so-called “Good Planets” to maintain peace throughout the universe assembled the Galaxy Alliance.

King Zarcon and his Planet are an alleged space conqueror that

threatens the Galaxy Alliance so they send a special force of space explorers to search and re-activate Voltron: Defender of the

Universe.

The showing session was barely finished when Steve suddenly left his seat and walked away.

Mark noticed the other young man's discomforts.

At the lobby, Steve sat beside a water dispenser and drank a cup

when he noticed Mark leaning against a wall.

"Now you believe me?" he asked Steve with a taunting tone. "There is nothing honorable about Voltron and its pilots...they're all bunch of imperialistic conquerors doing a bluff as Defender of the Universe!"

Steve just shook his head. "We cannot just judge Voltron and its

pilots!"

Mark felt irritated. "What about that film showing, Steve?...It's right in front of your eyes...right in front of everybody's eyes!"

Steve starts to gulp at the drinking glass. "Don't you think what we just saw is a propaganda against Voltron?..."

He looks at Mark and continues; "Let's say Shaider has nothing to do with it...Let's say that data was deliberately exposed by some King

Zarkon supporters just to make Voltron looked bad!"

Mark just raised his hands in disgust.

"Go tell that to the love ones of those who died from that Voltron invasion..."Mark snarled at Steve.

"Voltron is a giant Godaikin Defender, much like Voltes V..." Steve

snapped Mark bluntly.

Mark just shook his head in controlled anger. "You just don't know how the people of Earth feel Steve...Because you're half earthling

and half...something else!"

That's the draw that made Steve launched himself and gave Mark a quick punch at the face.

Mark fell down dazed at the moment. But soon he was back on his feet and gave Steve a quick kick at the

face.

The kick sends Steve crashing at the mineral water dispenser.

His uniform soaks wet and blood came out of his nose, but Steve managed to stand and positions himself in a fighting stance.

Mark readies himself and starts to charge at Steve who is about to do the same when a lightning flash froze both combatants; a shuriken

ninja star suddenly hits the wall between them.

Jamie somersaults and then lands beside them both. "Steve...Mark, stop it!"

She pulled the ninja star stuck to the concrete wall.

"You should have realized, Voltron have already won...by making us fight among ourselves!"

There was a deafening silence between the three, and then both

Mark and Steve left the room quietly.

Night descends down over Camp. Big Falcon as the magnificent Godaikin Vavilos, zooms into the evening sky, leaving a trail of bluish, exhaust glow. Inside the great ship, the armored enforcer Shaider studies the mysterious Voltron Files he shared with Big Falcon and the Voltes Team. "Camp. Big Falcon and the Voltes Team must act fast!" he told himself as he inserted the info-cartridge into a Computerized, Video Input Terminal. "According to the Main Frame, Voltron was a sentient mechanoid who challenges other warrior robots from across the galaxy." The Main Frame lights up a monitor that displays website-like information leaflet about Voltron,

The characters, the Castle of Lions, Planet Arus. "The arrogant Voltron was punished by a goddess" Shaider continues. "She separates the machine into 5 parts that turns into the Voltron Lions." Shaider paused for a minute, studying the pictures of Keith, Lance, Hunk, Pidge and Princess Allura.

"Voltron was brought back by these so-called "Space Explorers" that was supported by this Galaxy Alliance to resurrect Voltron as the

Defender of their Universe."

Shaider shook his head in disbelief.

"Voltron may protect their galaxy now but..." He tried to raise his head and study their images more.

"It had tendencies to march through other universes and conquer

different worlds...As in these current situations."

Shaider punched a new set of keys on his console and the Main Frame displays infos about the Voltes Team and Voltes V.

"Then, Voltes V must act fast!" he declares to himself.

"Big Falcon and the Voltes Team must stop Voltron's march of conquest at all cost..."

A great volley of laser blast rocks the Vavilos violently.

It almost made Shaider tumble down.

Ka-blammmm!!!!!

Shaider sprinted towards Vavilos' cockpit. Immediately, he activated his visi-screen to see who or what's attacking his ship: Four Galaxy Alliance flagships loom over the

Vavilos.

Immense, coated with thick battleship armors and armed to the teeth, these starships employs "shock and awe" treatment to instill

terror upon its opponents.

The massive ships are accompanied by great swarm of Galaxy Alliance "robot" space ship fighters, all zeroing on the Vavilos.

One of the four massive ships comes ever nearer.

"This is Cmdr. Zachary Garth of the Stellar Ship Harbinger." The galactic officer announced his presence.

"You, alien starship, surrender to the Galaxy Alliance or face the consequence!"

"This is Shaider of the Intergalactic Police," Shaider replies back.

"Tell your Voltron ally to leave this side of the galaxy with his fleet!"

"I'm afraid were not in the condition to make Voltron "turn back." Cmdr. Garth replied. "...And I recon you don't understand the

position you're in!"

Like on cue, thousands of laser guns and energy batteries aim their nozzles at The Vavilos.

"...Got to act fast...!" Shaider told himself.

Cmdr. Garth made a deep chuckle. "It's a real one sided battle." He thought to himself.

And why not; he had all four immense stellar flagships and arsenals under his disposal and each stellar dreadnaught had its own fleet of fast and deadly squadron of space fighters; what good can a lone alien starship do against his regatta?

Unknown to Cmdr. Garth, the lone sleek starship is a Godaikin and just like Voltron and Voltes V, its one of the most powerful guardians

of the universe.

Inside the Vavilos, Shaider is already cooking something up his sleeve.

"I'll try to release a layer of pure, Blue Plasma Energy."

He told himself.

"That'll do the trick!"

He pushed a control lever in full blast; making the Vavilos glow in iridescent actinic blue.

The Galaxy Alliance commander finds this display alarming;

"The alien starship's trying something there..." he frowned as he cautioned his crew.

"Switch all messages to Cmdr. Hunter, Froy and Mhir&Tell them to open fire on my mark!"

Back inside the Vavilos,

Shaider activates several energy enhancing units that intensifies the build up of Blue Plasma energy.

Blue plasma coating over Blue plasma, the Vavilos was covered by its own intensifying power.

The alien starship now looks more like a giant glowing ball of bluish energy.

"Cursed that thing," Cmdr, Garth cried out, "fire, fire, fire!"

Suddenly, a billion laser bolts from the four flagships, plus energy torpedoes from the multitudes of space fighters rained down on the

Vavilos.

But their hellish volley just bounced off harmlessly from the

Godaikin's energy covered armors.

"What in damnation!"

Cmdr. Garth exclaimed as he saw the useless effort of his fleet against the bluish, sun-like Godaikin.

"Our volley's enough to blast a small moon!"

"Commander," a technical navigator informs him. "My laser cannons are overheating...There's a danger of internal

rupture!"

"I don't care!" the commander barks back. "Double power on the main batteries!"

Another salvo of laser storm rained down on the Vavilos. Once again, the bolts bounce off its glowing armors!

Shaider knows the Blue Plasma build up is all he needs to even the score.

"Time/Space warp...Now!"

Then, Shaider activated a powerful energy thruster and soon, from

behind his antagonists, the blackness of space rip-open and begins to pull every vessel into

its bowels.

The great fleet of space fighter squadrons is the first to go, and then the massive flagships follow. The amazing Vavilos was the last to

enter.

Satisfied, Shaider left his cockpit and proceeded to the launch bay, where a slender compact starship awaits him.

Manning its cockpit, Shaider pushed several ignition keys and voice

command units.

"Stryker take off!"

Outside the Vavilos, The compact starship Stryker left the launch bay and prepared itself for battle. It flew with rocketing speed to face the great swarm of the

Galaxy Alliance's space fighters!

Cmdr. Garth knows not all in outer space is black and star ridden; there are oasis of multi-colored spatial bodies and various nebulae clusters resulted from conglomerates of stars, space dusts, quasars, pulsars and super novas. But the current celestial display outside his ship changed into some strange, psychedelic patterns. As if like his whole fleet was thrown into the hip, magical world of "Yellow Submarine." "Navigator..." he asked his underling smartly. "Full status report regarding our conditions..." The navigator was about to check in their current status when suddenly, a great outburst rocked the ship!

Cmdr Garth could only look outside and saw Shaider's compact starship Stryker, engaged in a dogfight with the vast squadron of Galaxy Alliance fighters. "Stryker Beam!" Shaider's commands lets out deadly energy rounds in rapid sequences. Sending fifty of the Galaxy Alliance star fighters into fiery degeneration.

Terrified by their uncanny foe, the Galaxy Alliance fighters fired their laser torpedoes more in haste than calculation, sending their

comrades in their scorching end.

Inside his lethal conveyance, Shaider shifts his controls to autopilot and activates his remote voice command unit.

"Battle Tank, Go!!!"

Meanwhile, in the Vavilos' launching bay, a low silhouette space tank automatically launched itself to join the raging galactic skirmish;

magnificent jet combustions propelled the squat machine into the heart of the battle.

Four squadrons of Galaxy Alliance space fighters welcomed the new comer with threatening ballistics fired in murderous pace...to no

avail!

The Battle Tank returns the favor in the form of tremendous volleys of high-grade energy beams that incinerated half the strength of the

interceptors!

Inside the Stryker, Shaider spots the three giant flagships closing in on the Vavilos.

Immediately, Shaider change the frequencies of his voice command unit and sends a vocal control at the Godaikin.

"Vavilos Formation!"

The wings of the giant starship pivots, then its body extends further. This same starship body suddenly splits at the middle to form "legs."

The front section of the cockpit flips up to form the "feet".

The aft section turns, now looking more like a giant robot's body.

Then, two slim, steel colored arms retracted from each side.

Commaders Mhuir, Hunter and Froy in their respective flagships had witnessed the grandiose transformation of the Godaikin Vavilos!

Before their startled eyes, stands the terrific winged cybernaut&a

metallic apparition, so magnificent so surreal...

"Launch Cadmium missiles..." Cmdr Mhir gave the commands as he shook off his awe and fascinations! "...on my mark!"

Outside, thick armored shields open up to reveal several torpedo

holes and from these, large dangerous looking missiles spew out and aimed at the great Vavilos!

But in such quick and agile precision, Vavilos caught the charging

missiles like an arrow catcher, then immediately re-aimed these back at its sender.

Cmdr. Mhir and his bewildered crew realized that the great Godaikin moves in an impossible contour, no giant robot could ever do...

They tried an evasive maneuver but it's too late...

The missiles hit the S.S Avenger flagship directly at the bridge, and soon, Cmdr. Mhir and his crew was engulfed in a great fire ball that sends a powerful shock wave that wiped out his own vast stellar fleet

to Kingdome Come!

Chaos took over the helm of the great, Galaxy Alliance stellar ship S.S. Venturer as its skipper Cmdr. Hunter saw the obliteration of the flagship S.S. Avenger. The view screen displays the encompassing fiery destruction; as debris from the ill-fated S.S Avenger rained down on the walls of the Stellar Ship Venturer.

The loud thuds and crashes send further mayhem to those who can hear; it was as if the ghost of Cmdr. Mhir and his crew tries

frantically to seek refuge on the S.S Venturer.

"Commander Hunter..." one of his crewmembers started to speak. "Most of the other departments are on panic!"

Cmdr. Hunter sat slumping on to his officer's seat.

"Section 49's crew is leaving with lifeboats in full capacity!"

Cmdr. Hunter shook his head, trying to erase the gross reality that

blossoms before him.

"Were not going anywhere, were going to blast the enemy if it's the last thing we have to do!" he screamed trying to fight the surrounding noise and the feeling of imminent defeat.

The S.S. Venturer released salvo after salvo of laser fire.

The barrage is so powerful; it could melt the hardest metal.

The deadly beams made its mark on the Vavilos' side.

The Godaikin rocks to the violent blasts...

But its uncanny alien armors suffered no damage, apparent or otherwise.

Meanwhile, Shaider continues to engage with enemy space fighters in excellent results.

He also continues to keep track at Vavilo's progress.

A few flicks in his controls, the armored enforcer barked another

command at the Godaikin:

"Vavilos Beam!"

From Vavilos' great chest plate gushed out a river of glowing red anti-matter beam that engulfed the entirety of the S.S. Venturer.

Inside the massive stellar ship,

Cmdr. Hunter and his surroundings were seemed to be bathed by a blinding flash of wine red, turning immaculate white. Then he saw his

crew instantly turning into skeletons...

Gradually, their bodies disappeared into dust.

He tried looking at his own hands, only to saw these turning into skeletons and vanished into nothing...

Outside, the great stellar ship novas into oblivion...

There are no signs of ruin or debris...

As if the flagship does not exist at all.

Inside the Galaxy Alliance stellar ship S.S. Harbinger, Cmdr. Garth

stood up slacked jawed...he had never seen an entire stellar ship, with all its splendor vanished into nothing.

Frantically, he tried to contact the Galaxy Garrison to unleash Voltron

Vehicle Team...

But his communicators channeled to the Galaxy Garrison are all out due to the great inter-dimensional prison that engulfs his whole fleet!

"Commander Garth," one of his crew took his attention.

"Commander Froy of the S.S. Prospecter closed all his signals and communication links ...He maybe planning something!"

At first, everything for Cmdr.Garth felt blurry.

But then, something like a desperate Kamikaze move crossed his mind.

Cmdr. Froy closed all his communication links amidst protestations from the S.S. Harbinger. Cmdr. Froy is quite old; looking more like Santa Clause in a captain's hat and Galaxy Alliance uniform. He remembered the days of serving the Galaxy Alliance, the Galaxy Garrison and the Voltron Force (Both Lions and Vehicles.)

But now, the new enemy is so different; they are fighting one single opponent who could take out half of the Galaxy Alliance Starfleet without even a paint scratch! He looked at the eyes of his crew&they were sad yet determined. He was like a father to them, now like him; they decide to take on a new task...Suicide! "Are you ready Corporal?" he asked his crewmate as he sat on the Captain's chair. "Aye aye sir!" the corporal replied with tears in his eyes. Cmdr. Froy took one last breath of air.

"We've faced countless enemies...but this one easily took the ranks of our comrades without even a dink!"

Gradually, his crew started to cry one by one they fell on their knees.

"We will die in the glorious name of the Galaxy Alliance and Voltron,

Defender of the Universe...Men, full speed ahead!"

Meanwhile, the valiant Shaider continues to blast the remaining

Galaxy Alliance star fighters. He flips up a few combination keys to activate the Stryker's magnetic

couplers.

Equip with automatic sensors The Battle Tank connects itself to the Stryker and continues its course towards the S.S Harbinger.

A blinking red light caught Shaider's attention.

He saw the determined Stellar ship Prospecter coming in full speed

"Power Dive" at the Vavilos.

Suddenly, the Vavilos instinctively jumped out of harm, evading the S.S. Prospecter's death plunge.

It was an incredible feat; like the gargantuan machine is sentient

enough to comprehend danger.

The great Godaikin waited Shaider's new order.

"Vavilos Matrix Projection!" Shaider shouts aloud in his voice command unit.

The great wings of the Vavilos came down as its majestic body

aligned in a straight line. The cockpit portion pivots up and soon, the Godaikin turns into a colossal space gun.

Meanwhile, Cmdr. Froy realized the futility of his Power Dive attempt.

"Turn this ship around!" he hollers nervously at his crew. "Yes sir!" his technicians carry on his orders at haste.

The great ship lumbered painfully as powerful rotors whine savagely to obey its navigators.

Suddenly, from the Vavilos Space Gun; an intensely concentrated beam of pure Blue Plasma Energy shoots out, slamming hard at the

turning Galaxy Alliance stellar ship, S.S. Prospecter.

Inside, Cmdr. Froy's viscera were burnt to crisp: Popping and crackling even he's still alive...His crew suffered being barbecued

horribly before the immense energy consumed them and tearing their souls!

Outside, the savage beam shreds the stellar ship Prospecter apart, pieces by pieces, until its great form collapsed from its own weight

and blew with the graceful beauty of a dying star.

The vast explosion caused a sickening tremor so great it produced a shock wave of extreme heat that brushed off what was left of the

Galaxy Alliance fleet of starship squadrons.

The sight was so intense, Cmdr. Zachary Garth thought he was going mad...

Cmdr. Garth realized that only his ship, the stellar ship S.S. Harbinger remained.

His entire fleet, an armada that boasts the greatest fire power, was

reduced to space dust.

"What kind of devil is this Shaider?" he asked himself as he starts to look at his shivering crew.

A great explosion rang over the near side of his vessel.

Suddenly, a giant alloy drill entered the Harbinger's hull forcefully.

The Shaider Battle Tank crawled its way through a maze of metal hallways, corridors and catwalks; blasting threshold after thresholds

wide open.

Battered but still holding whatever morals they have left, The Galaxy

Alliance grunts came rushing in to intercept the Battle Tank.

Their fixed guns were aiming at the metal intruder.

"Shaider Ultra Missiles!"

From the sides of the Battle tank, small yet lethal missiles were deployed.

Upon impact, these missiles blew the grunts through the air with their riffles; sending a rain of shrapnel of metallic debris and bone

matter to the other company of grunts who are scampering for safety.

In the heart of the chaos and confusion, Shaider left his conveyance

and fought the Galaxy Alliance grunts face to face.

"Shaider Laser Blaster!"

Again, laser blasts threw most of the grunts in mid air. Shaider moves so fast, his speed accompanied by his firing of his

weapon indiscriminately, sending laser fire at random.

Grunts after armored grunts, the Galaxy Alliance Marines fell down dead in multitudes.

"Stop right there!" one of the grunts hollered back at Shaider.

"Surrender to the robot armies of the Galaxy Alliance!"

"Robot Armies?" Shaider asked himself as he hid amidst the twisted

console and equiptment ruins around him and try focusing his cybernetic sights at the grunts.

"Shaider Scope!"

A powerful x-ray beam scanned the grunts; in his surprise, Shaider

saw that they were all flesh and blood.

"These men were brainwashed!" Shaider concluded.

"They were all made to think that they are just robots, made to carry on a mission for this Galaxy Alliance!"

Shaider paused for a minute and thought of his own Inter galactic

arch- enemy: The forces of Fuma Le-Ar and his mistress Ida.

"This Galaxy alliance is no better than Le-Ar and his forces!"

The grunts began to fire and laser bolts flew and strike at objects like sharp ice picks on cardboard!

Shaider adjust some small built-in console from his

metal arm. Then he flips one last switch.

"What a barbaric galactic agency!"

Suddenly, the rows of grunts were teleported to the Inter Galactic

Police Headquarters.

Shaider knows that they will all be de-briefed to wash-off whatever brainwashing sessions have given to them.

Shaider stood up and looked around.

Again, he activated the Shaider scope and found only one human

remaining.

"That must be the captain," Shaider assumes as he started to climb one floor then another that heads straight to the bridge.

"He must pay for his crimes!"

A laser bullet hit Shaider's chest: The impact sends the armored hero tumbling down on a row of console panels.

He started to rise, but another laser bullet hits him on his helmet.

"Well, its just you and I armored boy!" Cmdr. Garth declared as he

wave his laser pistol at Shaider.

"Now's the time to die!"

Shaider instinctively avoided the next round of laser bullets, as Cmdr. Garth continues to pursue him.

"The end of the line...Who ever you are...you armored dog!"

Cmdr. Garth fired another shot.

Again, Shaider dodged the on coming laser bullet.

The laser hit a nearby nuclear reactor and a steam of dangerous radioactive haze filled the room.

Shaider's Blue Plasma Armors protected him from the hazardous

substance, whereas Cmdr. Garth inhaled the deadly fumes.

"Noooo!...What have you done?...What have you done?!"

His body rapidly deteriorates, his inner being seemed defiled by the toxic matter.

Cmdr. Garth was molded and stretched like clay by the radioactive

material; sudden mutations occurred, turning him into something like a ridiculous nightmare:

He lost his hair as his face widens into a football shaped version of a

gingerbread man.

His ears elongate like that of an elf and his lips became bloated like some funny character.

His body bent down to a squat, his legs shortens and turned stubby.

Cmdr. Zachary Garth of the Galaxy Alliance turned into a hilariously ugly creature that looked like a kid in an asinine Halloween costume

for the misfits.

There was no intelligent word that comes from his mouth as he struggles with the sudden illness.

His appearance is utterly non-human. But he retained his

consciousness.

"Nanini-Nanini-Nanini!"

Shaider took out one last weapon...

"Shaider Cutter!"

Shaider ignored the creature and aimed his weapon at the foundations of the Stellar ship Harbinger.

Every rumble brought tremors and soon, Shaider felt the outcome of

his handiwork!

"This whole thing's gonna blow!"

Shaider took one last look at the creature and decides to end its

misery...

"Shaider Super Slash!"

SHIWIK!!!

Zachary Garth made his final cry...

"AAAAAAIIIIIEEEEEKKKK!!!!"

From outside, sections of the Stellar ship Harbinger started to burst; the Shaider Battle Tank and the Stryker made their exit and headed

back to the Vavilos.

Shaider looks back behind to see the once proud Galaxy Alliance stellar ship blew to smithereens.

Shaider took a deep breath...his fight with the Galaxy Alliance maybe

over...But what about Voltron and the Voltron Force?"
