Stage 9
(Map, 4 Raptors show up)
Lonlon: An ambush…!?
Manami: No… They don’t look like they’ve been waiting. It must be a reconnaissance troop…
Shizuma: That means their lair must be nearby! Let’s go…!!
(Deployment screen: 2 units)
Clear Condition: Defeat all enemies!
(After that happens, stage clear)
(Saber Varion on the map. Field glows red)
Shizuma: What is this sound…!?
Saber Varion: Analyzing signal… This is a guidance signal.
Shizuma: A guidance signal… !?
Manami’s voice: It’s the enemy’s trap! The monsters you defeated just now emitted this signal when they were destroyed. It was a warning device! Enemy reinforcements will be here in little time…
(6 Raptors show up)
Shizuma: … Come and get me!
(Eyecatch: Chouryuujin)
(G-Island City)
Surveillance system: Initializing voice recognition. Please clearly state your name, age, affiliation, recognition number.
Mamoru: Amami Mamoru, age 9, no affiliation or recognition number.
Surveillance system: Confirmed. You will now be directly transported to the Space Development Corporation Tower, Minus Level, GGG Bay Tower Base, Main Order Room.
Mamoru: Wa-ha!
(Main Order Room, everyone from GGG – other than Guy – is there, Entouji is sleeping. Mamoru enters and bows to Taiga)
Taiga: Welcome to GGG! Special member, Amami Mamoru-kun. (hands him something)
Mamoru: Y-Yes…! Uhm… Pleased to work with you! (takes it)
Taiga: Very good, you’re energetic, yet polite! Hyuuma-kun and others should learn from you.
Hyuuma: Hmpf!
(Mamoru looks around)
Mikoto: What’s wrong, Mamoru-kun? This isn’t the first time you’re here, is it?
Mamoru: … No. But… when I was here last time, I was really nervous and I couldn’t remember well. That’s why it all seems so unusual…
Leo; The Main Order Room is in the underground part of the Space Development Corporation Tower, 80 meters underwater. It’s a silent world where very little light can be seen.
Swan: Chief, Mamoru, please enter the lift circle.
Taiga: Mhm! Let’s go, Mamoru-kun.
Mamoru: Ah, yes…!
Swan: OK! Lift down!! GoLion of genesis! (and they go down with the circle-shaped elevator)
Mamoru: Uwaaaah!?
(They reach the Big Order Room, where they find Guy, Hyoryuu and Enryuu)
Mamoru: Aah! Wa-ha! It’s so huge!! Ah, Hyoryuu and Enryuu!
Hyoryuu: Hello, Mamoru-dono.
Enryuu: Hey there, Mamoru!
Mamoru: … H-Hey there!
Guy: Hey!
Mamoru: Ah, Guy-nii-chan!
Guy: (jumps on the platform) This is GGG’s strategy command room, the Big Order Room.
Mamoru: Big Order Room…!
Taiga: Now, let’s start the strategy council!
Entouji: First, please look at the monitor.
(On-screen. First, Primada and Polonaise)
Swana: These images are based on the testimonies of the people who were Zondarized.
(Then you see Pizza and Penchinon. All are in their “human” forms)
Entouji: We guessed that these four are the Zondarians that turn humans into Zondars.
Mamoru: Zondarians?
(Zondar Metal on-screen)
Entouji: When this Zondar Metal fuses with a human, he undergoes Zondarization.
(Back to Big Order Room)
Swan: All the people who’ve been Zondarized so far have had something in common: they all subconsciously had some form of strong hatred or sadness. We think that the Zondar Robo’s destructive activity also originates from such negative emotions.
Mamoru: Hatred or sadness… Negative emotions?
Mikoto: It’s been confirmed that you have the power to save the people who’ve been turned into Zondar cores, Mamoru-kun. We don’t know why, but we decided to call this process “Purification”. Mamoru: Puri… fication…?
Leo: In the current stage, the Mobile Unit has to directly attack in order to silence the Zondar, so as to allow you to contact the core. Other than purifying them, we don’t know any other method.
Mamoru: U-Uhm…
Taiga: What is it, Mamoru-kun?
Mamoru: I-I… When Zondars show up, I somehow, uhm… know their whereabouts! Then…… if we capture the Zondar before it turns into a robot and purify it…!
Guy: Mamoru. Last time you got irresponsibly close to a Zondar, you got into danger.
(Flashback to the time they chased the runaway Zondar. Green-haired Mamoru walks in, Mamoru looks around, sparks can be seen behind him, he tries to purify the Zondar, the Zondar shocks Mamoru)
(Back to the present Big Order Room)
Mamoru: But, I… I don’t want to see the city end up like that…!
(Flashback to the burning city from Stage 7)
Taiga: That is true…
Leo: What a gallant child.
Hyuuma: That’s a good mental attitude for a GGG member.
Mikoto: But Mamoru-kun is still in elementary school.
Ushiyama: There are other elementary school kids who fight alongside the Braves, but… Involving a child in a battle is a little too much, after all…
Swan: That’s right! This is a war!
Entouji: Well… The Intelligence Service could guard Mamoru, though…
Mamoru: Eeh? Guard…?
Guy: Exactly. If something were to happen to you, what would the Zondarized people do?
Mamoru: Ah…!
Guy: Only you can purify and save the people who’ve been turned into cores. We can’t let you get into danger… please understand.
Mamoru: Uh-huh……
Enryuu: Cheer up, Mamoru! My AI is shaking from your courage! Captain, if we’re afraid of danger, we can’t do anything. Shouldn’t we try testing Mamoru’s suggestion?
Hyoryuu: No… That’s not it, Enryuu.
Enryuu: What’s not it, Hyoryuu!?
Hyoryuu: According to my calculations, Mamoru-dono’s suggestion is extremely riskful.
Enryuu: How can we protect peace if we’re afraid of risks!? We should use willpower to make up for the probability!!
Hyoryuu: For a robot, that is a pretty illogical reaction. Isn’t your AI defective?
Enryuu: We have perfectly identical AIs, there’s no way only mine could be defective! Since you can only make simple calculations, maybe you should get a change in software, Hyoryuu!
Hyoryuu: How rude! It seems that due to some needless addition, you keep getting overheated.
Enryuu: Right back at you! Seems your AI got frozen by the freeze system!
Hyuuma: Who would have expected robots to quarrel like that…
Ushiyama: That’s a pretty human-like AI, isn’t it…
Mikoto: … Still, even though they were equipped with the same AI and the same software in their drives, their opinions are far too different…
Mamoru: Guy-nii-chan, what should we do... It’s my fault…
Guy: Don’t worry. They’ve been together ever since they were born, so the more they fight, the closer they get.
(Alert)
Guy: Is it a Zondar!?
Mamoru: No, I didn’t sense anything right now, so it should be something else! But…!!
Taiga: Hurry up with the lift up!
Swan: Roger! Lift Up!! GoLion of genesis!!
(Back to the map with the 6 Raptors)
Manami’s voice: Aagh, damnit! They’re so annoying!!
Shizuma: Damn…! There’s no end to them!!
(Main Order Room)
Mikoto: There’s a large-scale battle taking place near the Onioshidashi mountains!
Entouji: From what we can see in satellite view, the enemy doesn’t seem to be Zondars. They seem to be…
Leo: They seem to be the demons sent by that Bardo Manami-kun was talking about.
Guy’s voice: It doesn’t matter whether the enemy is a Zondar or not…! We…! We must protect the city!!
Taiga: (points dramatically) Alright! Guy, take off! And so should… Chouryuujin!!
Mikoto: GGG Mobile Unit, launch!
(FMV: GaiGar – Fusion)
(GaiGar joins Saber Varion on the map)
(FMV: Symmetrical Docking – Chouryuujin)
(So does Chouryuujin)
Shizuma: You guys… managed to combine!?
(Main Order Room)
Taiga: This is the birth of a new Brave…!
(Back to map)
Lonlon’s voice: You’ve come to offer us support!? Lucky~!
Shizuma: I don’t need their help…
Lonlon’s voice: What are you talking about!? Even a cat’s paw would help us now!!
GaiGar: C-Cat…!?
Lonlon’s voice: … Ah, hahah… Sorry. That’s a lion…
Shizuma: Who cares if it’s a cat or a lion!? … Let’s go!!
(Deployment screen: 3 units)
Clear Condition: Defeat the enemy!!
(Note the two tubes behind the Raptors. They keep spawning new Raptors)
(When you destroy everything, stage clear)
Saber Varion: … Giant object approaching, evasion impossible!
Shizuma: What……!?
(Explosion)
(Blare next to the railway cannon)
Blare: Hmpf! Not bad for a test shot, but… Its firepower is damned low at 80% completion. More, more power! I don’t care how many human cities you destroy in the meantime!! Hya~hahahahaha!!
(Command Room, Manami and Lonlon)
Lonlon: [!] Varion’s damage has gone to dangerous levels! At this rate, it’s only a matter of time until he shuts down!!
Manami: Shizuma! Answer me, Shizuma…!!
Shizuma’s voice: … Damnit! Varion!
Manami: [!] Are you alright…!?
Shizuma’s voice: Yeah, it’s nothing! Do something about Varion…
Manami: (nods) No worries! We’ll surely repair him.
Lonlon: Its destructive power was amazing. … Look, the energy measuring machine is ruined.
Manami: … No way, could it be that the railway cannon is complete!?
Lonlon: We mustn’t waste time. Let’s hurry…!
Manami: Retreive them quickly. We mustn’t fall here!
Lonlon: Roger! (types on keyboard)
Manami: {… That’s right, we mustn’t stop here. There’s so many things we have to do. And to do that… We need Shizuma at all cost.}
(Fade to Laboratory Command)
