- Terms used from Animage/phantom English translation - 腐海 = Toxic Jungle バカガラス= Crazycrow コルベット= Corbet ウシアブ = Gadfly 酸の湖 = Acid Lake (in the sense of it being a proper name) While "Brigg" is spelled as such in Animage materials, I assume the generic nautical term was infered by the better judgement production team of the English version, and I have spelled it as such. - Reel 1 - LOGO - MANSON INTERNATIONAL YUPA - Another village destroyed... YUPA - Hmm, we'd better leave before the air kills us, too. TITLE - Somewhere in the world one thousand years from now... NARRATOR - It is a time when the world is still recovering from the Seven Days of Fire, an event that left many civilizations in ruin, and others gone forever. It is a time when the wind only blows in one place: The Valley of the Wind, and in this valley, a spirited princess named Zandra, dedicates herself, to a tomorrow of peace, and joy, and hope. But the forces of evil are everywhere, closing in from the north and south, while a Toxic Jungle is rapidly sweeping across the land, and soon, they will invade the Valley of the Wind. TITLE - MANSON INTERNATIONAL Presents TITLE - WARRIORS of the WIND ZANDRA - The shell of a Giant Gorgon! ZANDRA - [grunts] ZANDRA - [gasps] The eye! [grunts] [gasps] Perfect! [gunfire] ZANDRA - Huh? The sounds of fighting again! ZANDRA - [gasps] Sorry, guys! [explosion] ZANDRA - [gasps] There! In the Toxic Jungle! [gasps] It's an angry Gorgon! ZANDRA - I'd better see what I can do! ZANDRA - Lord Yupa! ZANDRA - You're a beauty, my friend, but just too dangerous! ZANDRA - Ride into the wind! YUPA - Okay! ZANDRA - Go back to your jungle! You don't belong here! Now, go back! Be a good giant, and don't give me a hard time! [Gorgon gurgles] ZANDRA - Doesn't look like this little devil's gonna cooperate! [explosion] [Birdsteeds screech] YUPA - A load of light bombs will put them to sleep every time. That's the secret, my spunky little princess! ZANDRA - Wake up! Come on, boy! Time to go back to your jungle! ZANDRA - That's a good boy! YUPA - Good! There he goes, back to the Toxic Jungle, just like Zandra asked him. What strength she has! Almost magical! Thanks my young warrior! Let's move on, boys! ZANDRA - [exclaims] Lord Yupa! Lord Yupa! [giggles] YUPA - While I've grown old, you've grown beautiful! ZANDRA - I missed you, uncle! I'm glad to have you back! YUPA - You rescued me just in time! You ride the wind like a master! ZANDRA - Father says, I've lots to learn. Oh? YUPA - [chuckles] I forgot about my little friend! ZANDRA - He's adorable! Where'd you get him? YUPA - I rescued him from the claws of a mighty Gadfly. I thought he was a child, so I shot the Gadfly and- ZANDRA - And that's why the Giant Gorgon got angry and chased you, huh? YUPA - Right. Whoop! Be careful, Zandra! He's a feisty little devil! These creatures can be nasty. ZANDRA - Foxy? Come on. [giggles] YUPA - Don't let him bite you. ZANDRA - Don't be afraid. [growling] ZANDRA - I won't hurt you. [exclaims] He won't hurt me, once he knows I'm a friend. [growling] ZANDRA - Friends? ZANDRA - You were just a little frightened. ZANDRA - Uncle Yupa, may I please have him? YUPA - Of course, Zandra. ZANDRA - [giggles] I love him! Thank you, uncle! Thank you! YUPA - What a sweet sound. ZANDRA - My old friends. You do remember me. [laughs] YUPA - How is everyone in the Valley of the Wind, my little princess? YUPA - There's something wrong, isn't there. ZANDRA - Yes... Father is dying. YUPA - King Zeal? Why, he's always been so healthy. Is it... ZANDRA - Yes. He spent too much time in the Toxic Jungle. YUPA - I'm sorry, Zandra. If I'd have known, I would've come sooner. ZANDRA - Thank you, uncle. You're always there when we need you. [exclaims] I have so many questions to ask you when we get back home, about all your adventures! I'll fly ahead and let everyone know you're coming! They'll be so excited! Hurry! ZANDRA - Uncle Yupa, will you carry this home for me? I can fly a lot faster without it! YUPA - One of these days, I'm going to learn to fly. It's a lot faster than you two. [chuckles] MUZU (he is not named in this version) - There he is! Welcome back, Lord Yupa. YUPA - Greetings, my friends. How's life in the valley? GOL (he is not named in this version) - Peaceful and quiet, and windy most of the time, thank goodness. CHILD - Hi, are you Lord Yupa? YUPA - Guilty, I'm afraid. WALLA - Lord Yupa! Lord Yupa! Welcome back, so good to see you! AXEL - Hurry up, he's here! ZANDRA - I'm almost finished! AXEL - Greetings, Lord Yupa. YUPA - What are you doing up there, Axel? AXEL - Hurry up, and you'll find out. The King's really anxious to see you, my lord. ZANDRA - It's ready. Spin it. AXEL - Hah! Good girl! ZANDRA - Good wind! YUPA - [chuckles] I don't laugh much anymore. The world's become too grim. ZEAL - [chuckles] [coughs] YUPA - But, King Zeal, when I come to your valley, I feel relaxed. ZEAL - [coughs] Well, Yupa, what did you see in your travels? YUPA - It's getting worse. Two more countries in the south were swallowed up by the Toxic Jungle. It's spreading faster than ever before. It's causing starvation and unrest, and worst of all, war. ZEAL - [coughs] [murmurs] YUPA - Why can't the rest of the world be peaceful like this valley? OLD WOMAN - We have the good fortune to be blessed with fresh winds from the sea. It protects us from the deadly jungle air. ZEAL - Why don't you settle down, and live here in the Valley of the Wind. I could use your help, my friend, and the people need you. YUPA - [sighs] OLD WOMAN - [giggles] He'll never settle down. Lord Yupa, you have another destiny. YUPA - Old friend, you still talk too much. ZANDRA - What do you mean, "he has another destiny"? OLD WOMAN - Why, that he's destined to wander throughout the world. There, on the wall. See that coat of arms? I can't see it anymore, but there's a figure in the corner. The left edge. And the legend says, "That from he skies, a noble soul wearing a blue robe will stand in a golden field, and tie the strings of the Earth together." ZANDRA - "And the people of the world will have peace again and will have clean air." Uncle Yupa, do you think a beautiful legend like that could really happen? YUPA - I think that dreams like that belong to children, like you. OLD WOMAN - Hm. There's truth in dreams. YUPA - I'm too old to believe in fairytales and legendary characters who solve all the problems of the world, but the young should never give up their dreams and hopes. The future of the world, lies with you. ZANDRA - I wonder about my destiny. Is it to wander the world like my uncle? - Reel 2 - AXEL - [knocking] Princess? Princess Zandra? ZANDRA - Huh? What is it? AXEL - There's something in the wind. It could mean trouble. ZANDRA - Okay, Axel, we better go see what we can do. GOL - The wind's building up, and it's got a strange kind of smell! ZANDRA - [gasps] It's a light! There! ZANDRA - A cargo ship! AXEL - Why would they fly so near the border? YUPA - What's going on? AXEL - We spotted an alien ship. YUPA - Oh! ZANDRA - Look! It's headed this way. AXEL - It's a big one! YUPA, GOL, AXEL - [exclaiming] YUPA - That's a Temeculan cargo ship! ZANDRA - It's in trouble! Looks like they're trying to land! AXEL - Princess Zandra, what are you doing? ZANDRA - Going to guide them! YUPA - They're circling back. GOL - I'm ready! Let's go! ZANDRA - Hang on! [gunfire] ZANDRA - Loki Bloodsuckers! The ship must have landed in the Toxic Jungle! ZANDRA - Pull up, guy! You're flying too low! Pull up! You're going to crash! AXEL - Oh! The princess! WALLA - On the double! Out of my way! Look out! ZANDRA - She's alive! [grunts] [gasps] Oh, no... LISTELLE - Where...? ZANDRA - Don't talk. You'll be alright. [gasps] Oh... LISTELLE - I'm Princess Listelle. [groans] I'm from Placeda. Where... where's the cargo? ZANDRA - It burned. LISTELLE - Are you sure it did? ZANDRA - Yes, everything was burned up. Whatever it was is gone now. LISTELLE - [murmurs] Good... AXEL - Princess! AXEL - Why, she was a royal princess, and so young. The Temeculans must've captured her in a raid. Poor thing. MAN - Get a gun squad! There's a Giant Gadfly! WALLA - Don't get excited, now! Quiet, everyone! MAN - I can kill it! GOL - You can't kill that thing with a rifle! MAN - Well then, what can kill it? ZANDRA - Wait! Axel, bring my Cloud Climber. GOL - Careful, princess! ZANDRA - You can fly. Go on, now. Back home! Good. Now, take off. AXEL - Here it is, princess. ZANDRA - Thank you. WALLA - [cheering] AXEL - I'm glad that's over. If we'd had to kill him, we would've been attacked by thousands of them. ZANDRA - Bye! ZANDRA - Now what? MAN - Hey, what's this big hunk of junk? MAN - I wonder why it didn't burn up in the fire. AXEL - Alright, gentlemen, we'll figure that out later. Right now, let's get busy and burn those spores. WALLA - Yes, sir. AXEL - Be sure you destroy all of them! AXEL - This is a terrible tragedy. YUPA - Axel, look at that. AXEL - Hey, it's pulsating, like living matter! I've certainly never seen anything like that before. What is it, my lord? YUPA - During my travels, I heard rumors. Rumors of a creature from the ancient world, that had been uncovered in the country of Placeda. AXEL - What kind of creature? YUPA - A Fire Demon. AXEL - One of those that destroyed the ancient world with Seven Days of Fire? Huhuh, I've heard about them. YUPA - They were petrified, turned into cold stone fossils long ago. But one of them didn't die, and has been sleeping underground, for a thousand years. AXEL - And this is it! Kind of scary if you sit around and think about it. YUPA - Temecula's violent army raided Placeda, and then, captured Princess Listelle and this sleeping demon. ZANDRA - I'll be right back! ZANDRA - What is that? WALLA - (Japanese audio) ZANDRA - Those are Temeculans! They're attacking us! WALLA - (Japanese audio) ZANDRA - [panting] (Japanese audio) ZANDRA - Back to the castle! Hurry! Take cover! Run! ZANDRA - Father! ZEAL - [coughs] They'll be here any minute! Go hide yourself! (Japanese audio a "Babasama" creeps through) OLD WOMAN - My place is by your side. [gunfire] ZANDRA - [gasps] Get the children inside! [gasps] ZANDRA - Assassins! [war cry] (Japanese audio) OLD WOMAN - Princess Zandra! ZANDRA - [war cry] [gasps] YUPA - Take my advice and listen! Make just one move and you're dead, my friend. This knife will cut through your armour like butter. TEMECULAN SOLDIER - That's the famous Lord Yupa. YUPA - What kind of monsters are you Temeculans? The people of this peaceful valley tried to save your spaceship last night, yet while they're burying your dead, you repay them with a murderous attack, killing their women, their children, and their king! YUPA - Zandra, stay calm. If we try anything, all our people will be killed. We must stay alive, and wait our chance. GENERAL - [groans] I'll kill that girl! SELENA - Put your gun down! GENERAL - No! SELENA - I said, put it down! GENERAL - Mmm... One little girl, and look what she's done to my men! SELENA - You are very persuasive, Lord Yupa, with words as well as your sword. We came here to help these people, not to kill, so, put away your weapon, please. AXEL - Our princess! WALLA - There she is! It's our princess! GENERAL - Attention, everyone! Her Royal Highness, Queen Selena, is now going to address you. SELENA - We are your hope! Your only hope for survival! Together, we can build a future of peace and prosperity. You people of this valley don't know how to stop the Toxic Jungle, but we do! We can burn and destroy it! We can eliminate the Toxic Jungle once and for all! MUZU - Can the Toxic Jungle be burned? SELENA - You see, we humans once ruled our land. But now, it's ruled by the jungle and all the giant insects. Our plan is your only hope! You'll all be guaranteed a good job and, a world free of that deadly jungle air! OLD WOMAN - Your plan is foolish! And I'll tell you why, Queen Selena. You can't burn the Toxic Jungle! GENERAL - Quiet, you old witch! Guards, take her away! SELENA - Let her speak. OLD WOMAN - The jungle has survived a thousand years, yet no one has been able to destroy it. Each time someone has tried, deadly swarms of giant insects, have attacked our cities, destroying everything. Armies, more powerful than yours, have tried to burn it with no success. Each time man has tampered with the jungle, a holocaust has resulted. If you attempt to burn the Toxic Jungle, you are doomed to die. GENERAL - I could have you put to death for uttering a curse like that! OLD WOMAN - Are you going to burn me at the stake or boil me in oil? GENERAL - Mmm, take your choice! OLD WOMAN - Well, honorable warrior, go ahead and kill me, like you killed our defenseless king while he was sick in bed! AXEL - The king's dead? WALLA - You think you can get away with this? Hey, who did that? You didn't tell us about that! Who did this? Who is responsible for this? And I want to know! GENERAL - I can handle this! Men, let them feel your steel! ZANDRA - Listen to me! Everyone, listen for just a minute! ZANDRA - I don't want anymore bloodshed. We'll obey them. AXEL - Princess... ZANDRA - Please try to understand. This is the price we must pay for peace. WALLA - [crying] - Reel 3 - TEMECULAN SOLDIER - Right over there, men! SELENA - I really love this valley. GENERAL - And I loathe it. Your high command wants to creature shipped on to Temecula immediately. SELENA - That's impossible and you know it. We don't have a cargo ship large enough to carry it without crashing. GENERAL - Sounds to me like you're planning to start your own private kingdom here. SELENA - So what if I am? I don't intend to let those idiots back home to tamper with my creature! GENERAL - You're the boss, ma'am. I'm glad I'm not back home. I'd probably qualify as one of your idiots. SELENA - That's right. I'm going home for a few days. When I return, I hope to find the Fire Demon revived and ready. Is that clear? GENERAL - Clear. SELENA - Is this Gunship usable? GENERAL - Yes, ma'am. SELENA - We'll confiscate it. SELENA - You don't seem to understand. I'm not asking, I'm telling you the conditions. AXEL - But you can't take Princess Zandra hostage! GOL - Or our food, our Gunship, and now our princess? SELENA - I depart tomorrow morning. I expect everything to be ready. MAN - We'll be there with you in spirit, princess! CHILD - Bye! MAN - Take care, princess! GOL - Temecula very far from here? GIKKURI (he is not named in this version) - Is there anything to eat on this flight? NIGA (he is not named in this version) - Hey, you jokers are war hostages, not paying customers, remember? GIKKURI - [laughs] Right. GOL - What's so funny about being a prisoner? Why are they flying so close to each other? NIGA - Knock it off, will you? You sound like a pair of old hens. GIKKURI - I think they're scared of being attacked. ZANDRA - There's a layer of poisonous air under those clouds. TEMECULAN GUARD - Sit down, you two. ZANDRA - It's an attack! MAN - Mayday, mayday! Enemy attack! Crazycrow hit! Going down! MAN - Form for defense! MAN - Watch out below! ZANDRA - Comes again! MAN - That's the third ship down! Where's the Corbet fighter? MAN - Steering gear disabled. AXEL - You guys are in real trouble. MAN - We're coming apart! Mayday! Mayday! ZANDRA - They're helpless. Get in here, Foxy! AXEL - We're going to crash! Get ready! ZANDRA - [grunts] AXEL - Where are you going? ZANDRA - Stop shooting! I don't want anymore killing! ZANDRA - [screams] AXEL - You alright, princess? [exclaims] ZANDRA - Come on, Axel! Hurry! AXEL - I'm hurrying! You sure this is the way out? AXEL - What are you gonna do? ZANDRA - I'll fly us out! AXEL - Wait, princess! ZANDRA - Come on! AXEL - Yes ma'am! Augh! ZANDRA - I'll blast the door with the cannon! Start us up! AXEL - Right! ZANDRA - Come on! Jump! SELENA - [grunts] ZANDRA - Good! Get down! Ready, Axel? AXEL - Let's do it! ZANDRA - A full throttle as soon as I fire! AXEL - Okay! ZANDRA - Ready? Fire! ZANDRA - Put on your mask! Going down to find the barge! ZANDRA - How's my little Foxy? AXEL - I never saw so much pollution! You couldn't cut it with a chainsaw! ZANDRA - Axel, look to your right. Down a few degrees. AXEL - Check. ZANDRA - Do you see the barge? AXEL - Uh-oh! There they are! Hang on! NIGA - It's the princess! GOL - Hello, Axel! GIKKURI - Hello! ZANDRA - If you can keep your altitude, I'll throw you a tow rope! NIGA - It won't do us any good princess, 'cause the hook on this thing's broken! GOL - Do something, princess, or else we're gonna crash in the jungle! GIKKURI - And we don't wanna die yet! AXEL - Get hold of yourselves men, and throw out the cargo! GOL - Goodbye, princess! AXEL - Listen to me, throw out the cargo! ZANDRA - Shut off the engine! AXEL - What?! ZANDRA - Shut off the engine! AXEL - Okay! GIKKURI - No! Her mask! NIGA - No... GOL - Princess Zandra, put your mask back on! GIKKURI - Yeah! GOL - The air will kill you! GIKKURI - Put on your mask! MUZU - We'll do whatever you say! ZANDRA - Listen! I can save you, but you'll have to throw out all the cargo right now! GOL - We'll do it! We'll do it! GIKKURI - We'll put it on! NIGA - Come on men, let's get busy! GOL - She sure is a brave girl! GIKKURI - She's got a plan to save us! GOL - Let's go! AXEL - Nose down! ZANDRA - Engine on! Look for a place to land! GOL - [grunts] That's it! GIKKURI - Cargo's away! MUZU - Hello! NIGA - You made it! ZANDRA - Everybody alright? SELENA - Stay right where you are! MUZU - Careful! GIKKURI - Uh-oh! GOL - You! AXEL - Pointing that gun your way of saying thanks?! GOL - Aww, why did you have to save her? SELENA - Yes, your heroics are to be commended, Princess Zandra. ZANDRA - This place is filled with dangerous gases. If she pulls that trigger, then anything can happen. Do us all a favor, and put the gun away, Queen Selena. [gasps] Look at the sky! Those giant dragonflies are the watch guards of the Toxic Jungle. They probably had uninvited visitors like us before. Alright, everybody. We have to fly out of here and we don't have much time. You, men. Get some rope. GIKKURI - Uh-huh. ZANDRA - Axel, fix the hook. AXEL - Right. GOL - Oh, what the- MUZU - Hey! GIKKURI - Ooh! SELENA - Don't move! I'm in command here! ZANDRA - I don't think you're as evil as you pretend to be, Queen Selena. SELENA - Haha, but I am! ZANDRA - I just have one objective: to see that my people get home safely. Now, put away your gun. SELENA - [cackles] You can't- [exclaims] GOL, MUZU, GIKKURI - [exclaim] ZANDRA - Now what? ZANDRA - Don't move! We don't wanna anger it. GIKKURI - We've landed in a nest of Giant Gorgons! GOL - We're surrounded by 'em! ZANDRA - He's checking us out. I'm sorry if we disturbed your nest. We didn't come to cause you any harm. We're leaving as soon as we can. SELENA - Eugh! GIKKURI - Sacred spirits! ZANDRA - Thank you! Oh, thank you for understanding! GOL - I don't know why, but- MUZU - They're leaving! GOL - Oh, no... Princess, what are you going to do now? ZANDRA - When the water settles, take off and stand by in the air. If I'm not back in an hour, return to the valley. AXEL - Sure, but... AXEL - I'll take that, please. Thank you! Alright, let's do as the princess wishes... and may she be protected. - Reel 4 - MILO - [grunts] [stammers] Whoa! Ah! [gasps] MILO - Oh, stupid gun! [exclaims] [screams] MILO - I don't believe this! MILO - Who-who are you? ZANDRA - Girl you tried to shoot down! ZANDRA - [screams] MILO - [grunts] Quicksand! [grunts] NIGA - Zandra's been gone two hours already! GOL - Look, millions of them! GIKKURI - That's a lot of bugs! GOL - Princess Zandra, where are ya?! Where are ya?! ZANDRA - Mm. [murmurs] ZANDRA - Did we die? [footsteps] MILO - Hi! I finally found your Cloud Climber! How do you feel? ZANDRA - A little fuzzy. MILO - My name is Prince Milo. I'm from the City of Placeda, where my father was the king. ZANDRA - I'm Princess Zandra from the Valley of the Wind. Are we in heaven? MILO - [laughs] No, Zandra, we're not in heaven. We're right underneath the Toxic Jungle. ZANDRA - You sure? MILO - Mmm-hmm. Look, we fell from up there, through the quicksand. ZANDRA - The air's so fresh and pure. MILO - Yeah, it's great. It's a real paradise. My sister Listelle would've loved it, all this clean water to swim in. What's wrong? MILO - Zandra, don't go too far! ZANDRA (V.O.) - The endless ironies of life. I tried to save Milo's sister, and then he tries to shoot me down. Yet, in the end, I saved his life, and he saved mine. Just above us is a world of death and destruction, yet here, just a breath away, is a paradise, to remind us of the hope, and peace and joy that can still be. ZANDRA - Is it possible there is no death? ZANDRA - The sign of a new start. ZANDRA (V.O.) - Like in the beginning of time, all this can give birth to a new life! SOLDIER - All's well, sir. GENERAL - Good! GENERAL - Are we still on schedule? MAN - Yes, sir. We're pumping stimulants into the chest and head areas. GENERAL - Well, my fiery friend, are you feeling better? I think a plutonium injection and a shot of steam in the right place will wake you up. Oh, you are awake. You're the devil, no doubt about that, but at least you are our devil. CAPTAIN - General! Our air fleet has been attacked, and totally destroyed! GENERAL - And Queen Selena? CAPTAIN - Her ship exploded in midair. SOLDIER - What do we do, sir? GENERAL - Do the villagers know about this, captain? CAPTAIN - No, sir. GENERAL - Good, we'll leave right away. In the meantime, continue with our little demon. CAPTAIN - Yes, sir! SOLDIER - Yes, sir! GENERAL - Hmm... This is my chance of a lifetime, if only you'll cooperate. I'm depending on you. YUPA - [grunts] CHILD (GREEN SHIRT) - Axel and the others said to say they're back. CHILD (BLUE HAT) - They're waiting for you in the old ship by the Acid Lake. AXEL - I'm sorry we had to come back without the princess. YUPA - It's alright, you tried your best. SELENA - You're releasing me? YUPA - Yes, if you'll promise to throw that Fire Demon into the deepest part of the Acid Lake and go home with your soldiers. Let's have peace. No more senseless killing. SELENA - Lord Yupa, that creature can't be destroyed; by acid or water or by fire. It can't even be moved until it learns how to walk again. We had to attack Placeda, because they were a threat to us as long as they had the remains of the creature. Now that the potential power is in your Valley of the Wind, you'll be attacked sooner or later. I wish I could change your opinion of me. I have a good explanation, for being the way I am and feeling the way I do about the Toxic Jungle. Look. [grunts] AXEL, GIKKURI, MUZU, GOL - [gasp] GOL - [gulps] YUPA - The Giant Gorgons? SELENA - One of them attacked me in the jungle when I was just a very small child. I don't understand why you people hesitate. Help us to revive this creature. Command him to burn the jungle and you'll rule the world. YUPA - Sorry, but we're not getting in league with the devil. CHILD (YELLOW HOOD) - Trouble! Hey! CHILD (BLUE HAT) - Stop! What's the password? CHILD (YELLOW HOOD) - I don't know! CHILD (BLUE HAT) - Say it! CHILD (YELLOW HOOD) - Shut up! CHILD (BLUE HAT) - Close enough. CHILD (YELLOW HOOD) - Some spores survived! AXEL - Where'd they find them? CHILD (YELLOW HOOD) - Right in the center of the valley, and they're growing like crazy! MAN - Is everybody here? WALLA - I don't like it one bit. You've confiscated all of our- We want our flamethrowers back! SOLDIER - If they get 'em, they'll use 'em against us. GENERAL - Give them what they need, but watch them carefully. SOLDIER - Command ship's ready to take off, sir. GENERAL - No mistakes this time. I don't want to end up like our beloved Queen Selena. SOLDIER - Right. GENERAL - Look at them. Tomorrow they will be under my rule. WALLA - Let's go, men! This way, and hurry! (Japanese audio. An 急げ!"Isoge!" creeps through) GOL - Please find the princess. YUPA - I'll do my best. The valley's in your hands. MUZU - Take care! GOL - Good luck! WALLA - Okay, yeah, let's go, men. MAN - Be sure you get all of them! MILO - Everything looks normal to me. ZANDRA - There aren't any insects. MILO - Hmm. You're right. That's not normal. ZANDRA - I wonder why. MILO - I don't know, but we'll be there soon. Placeda's right over those mountains. MILO - Something's wrong in the city! Look at that smoke! ZANDRA - Milo, what are those? MILO - Insects, and they're all dead! ZANDRA - Put your mask on! MILO - Okay, hang on tight! We're going to Placeda! MILO - This way. Oh, no! ZANDRA - Oh, that's awful! MILO - Oh, our most important building! The sacred dome! MILO - Even if we destroy every Temeculan, what's the point? I-I've lost my city, and everyone in it. ZANDRA - I won't let you give up now, Milo. MILO - Huh? That's a Brig! One of our ships! It's landing! Come on! - Reel 5 - MAYOR OF PLACEDA - Prince Milo! MILO - What happened here? The city has been destroyed! MAYOR OF PLACEDA - They attacked us with a ruthless vengeance, but tonight, we will counterattack them. MILO - With no army, how do you plan to do that? MAYOR OF PLACEDA - Their entire army is in the Valley of the Wind. MILO - So what are you gonna do? MAYOR OF PLACEDA - Ah, the Temeculans have a mysterious Fire Demon, but we have something that can destroy him, and by tonight, all our enemies will be wiped out. MILO - Oh... ZANDRA - You wanna explain that to me? MAYOR OF PLACEDA - Milo, who is this person? MILO - Zandra saved my life. She's from the valley. MAYOR OF PLACEDA - Valley of the Wind? ZANDRA - And what are you gonna do there? You know what they're going to do, Milo. You gotta tell me! MILO - They're gonna use the Gorgons and attack it. ZANDRA - [gasps] You can't do that! I won't let you! [sobs] MAYOR OF PLACEDA - We have to recapture the Fire Demon before they have the chance to bring it to life again. MAN - Please try to understand, Princess Zandra. ZANDRA - How can anyone kill like that? You can't do it! It's inhuman! It's barbarian! MAN - It's too late. MAYOR OF PLACEDA - The order's been given. It cannot be stopped now. The Temeculans brutally killed almost every one of our men. We have no other way to fight them. ZANDRA - Let me go! Let me go! WALLA - Come on now. ZANDRA - I sympathize with your position Princess Zandra, however, we have no choice but to capture their demon creature. ZANDRA - Cowards! You're no different than they are! You're just power-hungry killers! MILO - [grunts] MAYOR OF PLACEDA - [grunts] MILO - Don't move! Alright, let her go! MAYOR OF PLACEDA - Milo, don't be foolish! MILO - I mean it! Let her go! I am not bluffing! [grunts] ZANDRA - [gasps] You can't do that! You ca- SELENA - [grunts] [murmurs] SELENA - Why are they fighting? WALLA - (Japanese audio) GOL - Heh! We gotta try and stop this! GIKKURI - Gonna stop it with that dinky bomb? GENERAL - Get that armored unit in position, and hurry it up! SOLDIER - Yes, sir! Come on, men! SOLDIER - On the double! GENERAL - Well, what are they doing? SOLDIER - Eh, I can't tell. But they're growing into a mean crowd. GENERAL - Let's teach these insurgents a little lessen in crowd control. Drop a bomb on them. Eh? GOL, GIKKURI, NIGA - [grunts] SOLDIERS IN TANK - Huh? Oh! [exclaims] [coughing] GENERAL - Hey, that isn't fair! NIGA - [grunts] GOL - Hurry up! Come on! Hurry up! NIGA - Don't rush me, kid.

Hurry! Okay, let 'em have it! Oh no! LIEUTENANT - Well, could you identify it? SOLDIER - It's a Placeda Brig. There. Behind those clouds. LIEUTENANT - Let's go! MAN - I'll let you in, but be careful, ma'am. MOTHER - Hurry up. MOTHER - Princess, we've come to help you escape, so you can warn your people. You can get there in time if you hurry. Your Cloud Climber is ready. Milo has told us all about you, Zandra. GIRL - We'll change clothes and I'll pretend to be you. ZANDRA - Who are you? MOTHER - I am Listelle's mother. ZANDRA - Her mother? MOTHER - I'm so sorry, my dear. We never meant for any of this to happen. GIRL - Uh-oh, hurry. ZANDRA - Will she be alright? MOTHER - Yes, she will. MILO - Can you take off from here? ZANDRA - I can take off from anywhere! ZANDRA - Except under fire! MAYOR OF PLACEDA - Fly into the clouds, and hurry it up! GUNNER - Stop firing! The fools have flown into a lightning cloud! MAN - Captain, the controls are knocked out! Nothing works! WALLA - (Japanese audio) MILO - The ship is coming apart, Zandra! MAYOR OF PLACEDA - Out of the clouds! You gotta get us out of the clouds quick as you can! MAN - [gasps] MAYOR OF PLACEDA - They're going to ram us! MILO - Look! What are they doing? ZANDRA - Those clouds! They want us to go into the clouds again! MILO - Here they come! Zandra, you've got to go now! ZANDRA - No, I'm not leaving! I won't desert you! MILO - [grunts] Zandra, don't you see? You have to go! You are the only one who can save the Valley of the Wind! WALLA - (Japanese audio) LIEUTENANT - You men search in there, and don't take prisoners! MILO - Huh? [grunts] Go, Zandra! AXEL - We're coming, princess! ZANDRA - Hey! AXEL - Haha! ZANDRA - Lord Yupa! Axel! AXEL - Hi, princess! ZANDRA - Axel, help me! Hurry! AXEL - We'll pick you up with the hook! Lord Yupa, it's the red lever on the right! LIEUTENANT - Hit it harder, men! Harder! WALLA - (Japanese audio) MILO - The door is about to give! [grunts] MAYOR OF PLACEDA - Come on in and get us! We'll stand here till the last man drops! GIRL - [gasps] What is that? SOLDIER - It's a Gunship from the Valley of the Wind! LIEUTENANT - Huh? SOLDIERS - [exclaiming] Whoa! WALLA - (Japanese audio. A 貴様 "Kisama!" seeps through) LIEUTENANT - That's Lord Yupa! Kill him and you'll be famous! WALLA - Yeah, let me at him! I'll kill him! I'll kill him! Let me at him! LIEUTENANT - [grunts] Oh! [exclaims] YUPA - Now that you've had time to think about it, are you ready to surrender? LIEUTENANT - Y-yes, sir! AXEL - We're going too fast! The engine's gonna blow up! ZANDRA - We'll have to chance it! We'll have to go as fast as we can! ZANDRA - Help me, spirits of the wind, to get back to the valley in time. ZANDRA - Axel? AXEL - Almost there. Acid Lake just ahead. ZANDRA - I'm decelerating. Here we go! AXEL - What are all those lights out there? ZANDRA - [gasps] AXEL - Those Giant Gorgons are angry and they're headed toward the Valley of the Wind! ZANDRA - How could there be so many? ZANDRA - What in the world is that thing? Let's have a look! AXEL - Right! ZANDRA - Strange... Shoot a flare, Axel! ZANDRA - Ready! Fire! AXEL - What is that?! ZANDRA - [gasps] ZANDRA - How cruel! They're using one of the Giant Gorgon babies to bait them! AXEL - They're torturing that creature! ZANDRA - Wait! Don't shoot, Axel! Don't shoot! AXEL - Why shouldn't I shoot? ZANDRA - You could've killed the baby! AXEL - Don't you understand?! That Gorgon's gonna die anyway! ZANDRA - No, it won't, if we can get it back to the Toxic Jungle! [grunts] AXEL - What are you doing?! ZANDRA - Go on to the valley! - Reel 6 - SOLDIER - I see some kind of flare out there! SELENA - How far away? SOLDIER - Just the other side of Acid Lake, Your Highness. SELENA - Do you think it came from their Gunship? GENERAL - It's likely. GENERAL - That's an emergency signal. It has to be their Gunship. SELENA - It's been an hour. Let's begin. GENERAL - And attack them? SELENA - We started it, we'll finish it. SOLDIER - Ready, move it! GENERAL - Better get inside. SELENA - And miss the fun? GUNNER - The Gunship! SOLDIER - Fire! SELENA - Stop! I said stop, you moron! GOL - Let's go! Come on! MAN - There's Lord Yupa! SELENA - Hold your position, but don't fire! GENERAL - Where are you going? Ah! SELENA - What happened to your princess? GOL - Yeah, tell us! GIKKURI - She's not in the back seat, I'll tell you that. AXEL - Giant Gorgons! Thousands of them! And they're headin' this way! GOL - Thousands of 'em?! MAN - Heading this way?! AXEL - Princess Zandra stayed to try and turn 'em around. Now, we've got to stop fighting each other! Let's all get to high ground as quickly as we can! WALLA - Let's go! Come on! Hurry! Wait! CHILD (RED) - I can see lots of red lights, right out there. CHILD - There's a million of 'em! CHILD - They're coming this way! OLD WOMAN - Hold on to me tight as you can, children. The safest place to be is right here on the high ground. WALLA - Alright, this way! Keep moving! WOMAN - I'm dying, Axel. Please let me stay. I want to die in my valley. AXEL - Don't give up, old friend. You'll feel better when the princess gets here. SELENA - Men, stall them until I come back, and I guarantee you we'll stop them! GENERAL - Don't use the Fire Demon! It's too soon, Your Highness. SELENA - It's never too soon to rule the world! Get going! ZANDRA - Don't shoot, please! PILOT - Gotta be an enemy. Keep her in your sight. GUNNER - Doesn't act like an enemy, but like she's trying to tell us something. PILOT - Don't take a chance. We can't afford any interference. Gotta drop this insect in the Valley of the Wind as soon as possible. PILOT - Get ready. You can let her have it as she comes in. GUNNER - Huh? Huh? PILOT - Alright, give it to her! GUNNER - The robe! It's Listelle's! PILOT - Out! PILOT, GUNNER - [grunts] ZANDRA - [whimpers] [grunts] [stammers] ZANDRA - Hello. I'm your friend, and I wanna help you. I'm ashamed of what they've done to you. It was cruel and savage, but sometimes people are that way. Please don't be angry, and try not to move. You'll bleed to death. [grunts] [gasps] PILOT - Look at all those Gorgons! GUNNER - They're headed this way! ZANDRA - No, no! Don't go in the water! The lake's acid! Your wounds will burn! No! [screams] [whimpers] [murmurs] [groans] ZANDRA - Huh? Oh. Mm. [sobbing] ZANDRA - You feel better? I'm glad, and I'm happy you're not angry anymore. ZANDRA - [gasps] The Gorgons are still headed for the valley! I've never seen them so angry! If I don't stop them, they'll destroy the valley. Huh? [artillery fire] PILOT - Look at 'em! [laughs] Doin' exactly what we wanted 'em to do! GUNNER - We're safe now. PILOT - Let's get out of here. Check the engine. Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh, no! No, uh. Uh. Put the gun down. L-let's talk this over. ZANDRA - You two get this aircraft ready. We're gonna take the baby Gorgon back. PILOT - It's no use. Nothing you do now will stop those Giant Gorgons! ZANDRA - This stampede was started by you, so you're gonna stop it! GUNNER - We'll do anything you want if you stop that! CHILD (RED) - Does it hurt much when you die? OLD WOMAN - You're not going to die. It's not written in the legend. GENERAL - Nothing stops them. SOLDIER - Let's retreat. GENERAL - And where may I ask do you suggest we retreat to? WALLA - Gorgons! Run! Look out! GENERAL - Come back! Hey, you! Come here! You'll be courtmartialed! WALLA - (Japanese audio) GENERAL - This is it! The creature! WALLA - (Japanese audio) SOLDIER - There's Queen Selena! WALLA - (Japanese audio. A 巨神兵だ!"Kyoshinhei da!" seeps through) GENERAL - This is horrible! What have we done? SELENA - Attack! I order you to show them no mercy! Burn them to a cinder! Cremate them! GENERAL - That's it. This is the beginning of the end. WALLA - (Japanese audio) It's amazing! They'll stop 'em! SELENA - Do it again, and this time be sure that you finish them! SELENA - [gasps] [screams] WALLA - (Japanese audio) Let's get out of here quick! CHILD (RED) - The monster fell apart! OLD WOMAN - It's better that way. We should never try to use creatures like that one. CHILD (RED) - Oh, look! CHILD (GREEN) - Princess Zandra! WALLA - (Japanese audio) WALLA - (Japanese audio) YUPA - Their eyes are changing back to blue. OLD WOMAN - Why, the anger in the air has gone. AXEL - Is everyone alright? CHILD (RED) - I can see the princess! CHILD (RED) - She isn't moving. I think she's dead! OLD WOMAN - She gave us the greatest gift anyone could give. She gave us her life. CHILD (RED) - [sobbing] WALLA - [sobbing] (Japanese audio) WALLA - (Japanese audio) YUPA - [exclaims] (Japanese audio) GENERAL - What are these specks of light? ZANDRA - Oh. Hello. ZANDRA - Have a good life, and you too, my friends, every one of you. GOL - Is she a ghost or what? OLD WOMAN - She wouldn't want me to cry, but I can't help it. She did so much for us all. [sobs] Please, girls. Please tell me what you see out there, please. CHILD (RED) - Princess Zandra's wearing a beautiful blue and gold robe! CHILD - Looks like she's walking in a golden field! OLD WOMAN - "A miracle will come dressed in blue to end our troubles." [sobs] Oh! [sobs] The legend is true! CHILD (GREEN) - Oh, look! WALLA - (Japanese audio) WOMAN - Princess Zandra is alive!
