SPACE ADVENTURE COBRA
Are you ok, Cobra?
The Turtle will break long before I will.
The Guild has sent reinforcements.
Adjust course 45 Cº degrees to the left.
Full power!
Go!
Asteroid zone incoming
We made it!
The Guild has lost several of their ships.
Despite their loss, they may still be a problem.
Planet Wing's defense force!
Here we are, stuck between Charybe and Scylla.
Could this be Cobra's end?
Let's take this to the end then.
Let's go, Lady!
Laser, Fire!
Wait, Lady!
What's happening!?
Wing's patrol has passed over the Turtle and is headed for the Guild.
This is Vega.
I'm the planet Wing's X-zone sheriff.
Leave our territory or we'll open fire!
Someone has escaped into your territory.
What are you doing about him?
We're taking care of it.
It's none of your business!
Leave at once!
You dare to mouth off to the Guild?
How brave!
Don't forget with whom are you talking, fool!
We are match enough even for the Guild.
Now, get the hell out of here or you all die!
What!?
Wait!
Ok.
We leave him up to you.
The sheriff of Wing's X-zone, Vega.
I'll remember that name.
EPISODE 15: THE FRIEND OF THE DRAGON'S CRYSTAL!
You really saved us!
I owe you my life.
I am in your debt!
I'm the sheriff.
Saving people from the Guild is my duty.
There is no need to thank me.
So, you'll say that I was just a traveler?
Yes, just a traveler.
I think that's best for both of us.
I've never seen a sheriff with such understanding!
Planet Wing... I don't forget it...
Bye, Vega.
We'll drink Talcaros next time!
Cobra...
Cobra was killed by the Guild?
You really want to go there, Cobra?
Yeah...
I promised Vega we would drink Talcaros.
It's been 8 years since Vega saved us on Wing.
During my 5 years in hiding, the planet Wing was taken over by the Guild.
Its cities are ruined and its government is run by pirates.
Vega must have lost his position and he is probably wanted by the Guild.
Stop!
I'm not a bounty hunter.
I was told you were building up a group.
Yes I want keep the pride of Wing's inhabitants up.
This mortal mission won't interest you, human.
Don't be so strict and let me help you.
I'm good.
If you're looking for a job, go somewhere else.
Hey, are you ok?
Oh my.
You still have the habits of a fugitive.
You weren't always like that...
You know me?
Who are you?
Cobra, my friend!
C-O-B-R-A
Cobra?
Boy, stop your stupid jokes and leave.
My name is really Cobra.
Cobra died 5 years ago.
They say that I'm dead, but I'm back to keep my promise to you.
Promise?
I said we would drink Talcaros, didn't I?
Lmpossible!
Cobra is dead!
You are really paranoid.
In that case...
I'll prove it to you!
The Psycho-Gun...
The universe is vast, but only one man has such a weapon.
Cobra, is that really you?
So, you really are alive?
Yep!
So, will you tell me about that mortal mission?
This is the Loon museum.
Here the Guild shows off their stolen masterpieces.
This is planet Wing's Dragon's Crystal.
It was the energy source that regulated the climate on Wing.
It's kept on the top floor of the Loon museum.
So, to reclaim the Dragon's Crystal is our goal then.
Right.
Without the crystal, the meadows have lost their green and life.
I want that crystal back so Wing's meadows will once again be green with life
Vega, I understand your desire...
But Wing's under the Guild's control.
Even if we succeed, you might never be able to use it.
I have to do it!
Once the news spreads about it...
the patriots will rise up and reject the Guild's pirates, forcing them back into space!
Vega!
Don't worry!
My final "crisis" is still far away.
But, your people die six hours after their final "crisis".
The Dragon's Crystal is my soul!
It's worth using my last breath to get it back.
Once we reclaim it, keep it Cobra, until my planet is freed from the Guild.
It's worth your last breath?
How sad...
It's a deal, Vega!
I'll witness your grand finale.
What a pain, that Miro planet!
I feel like I'm driving in a cloud!
We'll rot here!
Let's get to the museum, Professor Davinch.
How are you Professor Davinch!?
As always ready for action...
Thank you for coming to the Loon Museum.
Pieces are kept in containers as to recreate their planet's original environment.
This way, you can see their full beauty.
I'm Davinch, the art expert.
We were expecting you, Prof. Davinch.
I'm Angle, Loon museum's director.
Glad to meet you.
Same here.
What a surprise!
Such a nice woman as director.
And who is this?
My assistant, Vega.
Mr. Vega, what planet are you from?
Why are you asking me that?
Well...
Normally, art experts are from the solar system...
This is discrimination!
Director Angle, you are not from this solar system.
Your attributes are too odd!
Enough, Prof. Davinch!
I'll guide you.
Please follow me.
She looks angry.
40,000 pieces are on exhibit here
Time does not allow us to estimate them all
Limit yourself to the ones designated to you
I'd be better estimating this kind of stuff...
Long legs, tight butt...
and nice exquisite tits!
Prof. Davinch!
How can an an expert talk like that?
You're insulting the pieces!
You know how much this statue of Antonius by Mizala worth?
It's a masterpiece from 2043, the Z-era.
The culture and spirit of this ancient civilization...
The statue's head was carved by Mizala in 2041.
But, the rest was done by his student lza in 2045.
That's true! My mistake!
No, that's fine.
You have so many pieces...
it's hard to remember all of them.
Sure, she just tested me...
It is really Odd...
I don't see any security here.
Don't worry!
It's here!
They are guides, aren't they?
In case of an emergency, they're also security guards.
In daytime, the security around the tower is extreme.
At night, we rely on our guard dogs.
Dogs?
The city is drowning
The anti-aircraft cannons that let nothing through are also drowning
The night falls
And the lightning replaces those cannons
Nothing can go out by night
Even your ship would be destroyed
The lightning will strike any little piece of metal
It's nature's guardian
Only that tower, built as a lightning rod, is safe
Canons by day, thunder by night
Any escape is impossible.
So?
Is your work going well?
I have a problem with lightning.
As soon as it starts, my stomach becomes unsettled.
We'll close the rooms.
You can start again tomorrow.
Let's do that.
I can't stay calm with lightning.
What is it, Mr. Vega?
He has an illness that gives episodic attacks
A little rest and he'll be fine.
Ah, he's awake.
That's good!
There are no doctors for extra-terrestrials here.
Well, I will leave you now.
Don't wander the exposition rooms by night
It may not be too safe.
Safe?
The dogs are violent, that's all.
Later.
Cobra!
Looks like it's about time.
My next episodic attack will be the last.
I see...
No time to waste then.
Ok!
Let's get this done tonight.
That's strange.
No cameras or security guards.
There is lightning, but that's not enough.
Don't scare me like that!
You old Dinosaur!
Danm, it looked like real...
Now I understand.
There's no need for guards when you have that monster.
So this is their guard dog, very funny.
Wow, Infra-red scanner, sound detector
and the eyes are cameras.
Well, it's even easy than I tought.
Say bye, The sound detector...
The lighthouse cannot light itself up!
He can't see on his back.
Come on, lead me to the Dragon's Crystal.
What?
Wow it was close!
Who could think that there are others...
Vega, everything is ok
Hurry!
My attack will begin soon.
What?
You think you can make it?
I won't stay conscious for too long.
Please hurry!
What is it, Vega?
Vega?
Strange...
The sound detector on number seven is not working.
The receiver is working.
It must be the robot's fault.
Where is N 7?
At the top floor...
near the room of the Dragon's Crystal.
N 8 is up there also.
Let's verify with it
Ah, There it is!
My beloved little Dragon's Crystal.
Look!
Someone's on N 7's head!
It's Prof. Davinch!?
No.
It must be an imposter trying to steal the crystal.
N 8, kill that man!
Shit, they found me out!
Alert!
Intrusion on the top floor.
Security, isolate that floor!
What is this about?
A thief is on the top floor!
That Davinch was an imposter!
What?
Vega!
Can you hear me?
I have the Dragon's Crystal!
Oh yes, I hear you!
It's hard to sleep in such a mess!
I've made a small mistake.
They are headed my way.
I can't wait for you.
No need to wait.
In less than a minute...
I say farewell to this body...
Let's synchronize this for one minute exactly.
Ok.
Let's set our watches.
What an idiot!
They think they can escape from the tower?
In this lightning, and from the top floor...
Even a small ship can't pass this lightning.
Plus, the electrified walls of the tower can't be scaled.
Bastard, you have no way out!
I shoud left anything that is metallic!
Seems the security is on its way.
Three...
Two...
One...
Zero...
Vega!
It your turn!
Nice catch!
No one's here!
Director Angle!
He isn't here on the top floor!
This is impossible!
He couldn't have?
No, it can be!
He transformed...
That's it.
That supposed-to-be assistant was... a Wing inhabitant.
They only live 6 hours after their mutation.
Vega!
Let rush to the Turtle!
Vega.
I'll protect your Dragon's Crystal.
I promise it!
