I'm glad to hear that, but you've got some serious thinking to do.
That's enough, don't you dare go out in the shadows, you'll see them insecure.
Remember, Sheridan will have an eye on us.
Keep back!
Never mind, never mind.
Who's in charge of this thing?
Answer me!
I am.
Where are you heading?
Earth.
Change course.
Change it!
Where to?
Not Earth.
Go to the planet Kimball.
Kimball!
Shut up and do as I say!
Kimball's deserted, Niles, as bad as Desperus.
Nowhere's as bad as Desperus.
The Daleks are on Kimball.
So?
The Daleks are no help, we're going back to Earth.
Then I shall be subjected to the devil's planet.
No, whoever the Daleks are there, help me.
You don't know the Daleks.
As I said, don't...
Kimball!
Only slight damage.
Worth the stay.
Kimball!
Kimball...
Kimball!
What is...
P proszę...
Never a spill-over...
Never a split-up...
I need...
Never a...
Never...
Wow.
Not experienced...
Never a...
No care.
Never...
What is this?
Talking about the Daleks.
Shrimp.
I've had enough.
What is prison?
He must recapture the Terranium and exterminate creatures who took it.
I obey.
Pursuit vessel, return to base.
We obey.
Destroy pursuit ship. They have failed in their mission.
We will not tolerate mistakes.
We're changing course. Now release that girl.
Do you think I'm a fool?
Course has changed. We're heading for Kemple.
It doesn't feel as if we've changed.
Well, look up at the screen and you'll see.
Open the door from the control panel. I'm rushing.
The girl will be dead before the door closes.
Can we talk to her again?
Yes, my general will talk back.
That's tiny to bluff.
Daryl, listen to me.
Whoever you are, put that girl in here or we will press a button
and you will go outside the door into space.
Then the girl dies too.
If you open the outside door and I press the enter release button,
then we'll all be dead.
I have no point in listening to him. He's crazy.
We've got to get Katrina out of there.
Stop that! Turn the talk back on again.
There's no point.
Turn it on again before he really hurts her.
He can't kill her. He hasn't a hostage.
Animal!
That's just a start. Now do as I say.
Change course.
That's more like it.
Turn your back to Kemple.
Take him back to Kemple.
Let the darlings stay with him.
Yes, and us.
Don't worry, dear boy. We'll find a way out.
I can't sacrifice everything for the sake of that one girl.
Without us, you wouldn't have got off Kemple at all
and nothing would be worth bothering about.
All right, so we all go out there together.
But without me, I doubt you'd have got this far either.
That's all right, but I won't let you hurt Katrina.
Head back for Kemple.
As the doctor says, on the way, we may find a way to get her out of there.
You won't.
No!
No, not that way!
Katrina!
All right.
Bless your own luck, doctor.
She may have wanted to, dear boy.
She wanted to save our lives.
Must have been quick.
I hope she's reached that place of perfection.
Yes, but not that way.
She didn't understand.
She couldn't understand.
She wanted to save our lives.
And perhaps the lives of all the other beings of the solar system.
I hope she's found her perfection.
Oh, I shall always remember her
as one of the daughters of the gods.
Yes.
Yes, as one of the daughters of the gods.
Dwarak Supreme.
You have failed to get back that core of the time distractor.
We shall get it back.
You show too much trust in Mavic Chen.
Mavic Chen is hungry for power.
We have offered him to you.
He will not be able to do it.
We have offered him more power than he has ever thought of.
He will return to us the Terranium core.
Supposing he fails?
He will not.
He has been given instructions.
What instructions?
It is not necessary for you to know.
As representative of the largest of the outer galaxies,
I have the right to know.
Representative Trantis,
the Daleks will not fail,
and neither will any of its allies.
If anything tries to stop us,
we will destroy it.
Nothing will be allowed to stand in the way of our plan to conquer the universe.
The Daleks
Judging by the position of the planets,
we will land soon.
That's the problem. It will not be easy.
Do we have enough power to land safely?
Yes, but we can not land at the main landing site.
Remember, this is Chen's spacecraft.
Yes, you're right.
Where can we land?
An experimental plant, a little far from the city center.
I have a friend there, I think he can help us.
So this is our traitor.
Yes, Brett Biles.
Born on Mars, colony 16,
joined the space security service in 1999,
first place in 1999,
second place in 1999.
You have a good memory.
Thank you, guardian.
And he looks like that.
Exactly like that.
How could he look otherwise?
Guardian, do you have any faith in computerized data?
Every faith.
But this information is vital.
The man is dangerous and must be caught.
I would hate to make a mistake.
A mistake is impossible.
Our computer network contains precise chemical details
of every man, woman and child in our solar system.
There are 40 billion people in the solar system.
Does not that give you a reason to make a mistake?
There is no reason to make a mistake.
Very well, send it to all stations.
Now, what about Gantry, the other traitor?
We are working on his identity projection.
It should be ready soon.
Since Biles is in charge, I gave priority to his projection.
Excellent.
Excellent!
Biles and Gantry were the two who never reported from the planet Kimball.
Am I right?
Yes, guardian.
Then they are the two who took over my spa.
It is possible that they may be associated with other creatures.
But we do not know where they come from.
When you catch Biles and Gantry, you catch them too.
You did well.
I want all space security agents to be called back to Earth.
If the traitors are not caught in the landing zone,
then the central city must be caught and arrested until they are found.
And Lysandre.
They will be killed on sight.
Give the instructions.
Yes, guardian.
I think that's enough.
You know, Gautam, some of your agents are getting too good.
We do not want to spoil things for ourselves at this stage.
They will not.
I have already insisted that all future operations
should be cleared with me before they begin.
If you had done that in the first place, we would not be in this position.
The mission was one that he kept to himself.
It was done without official sanction of any kind.
And you could hardly have stopped the others after his distress signal.
You must do better than that.
I would hate to have to lose you.
You know you can trust me.
I trust you.
The drive force is very weak.
We can be done.
Yes, but I do not know what will happen.
The pull is too hard.
It's going to crash now.
I'm afraid I may not be able to help it.
Yes, well, remember, Bret, we've got some valuable cargo on board.
The terrarium and the doctor.
Yes, I heard that.
Now, do not worry about me.
I can look after myself.
The most important factor is this terrarium.
Right.
Stand by.
Only because of the terrarium I am on that console.
It will be returned.
It has to be.
I want that position.
Right next to the Daleks.
I will rule the universe.
Surely Trantiss will be first, after the Daleks?
Trantiss.
Trantiss!
They do not like him.
He agreed that his is the largest galaxy.
But he's already asking too much to say what's going on.
They want him out of the way.
I have a plan that may help them to achieve just that.
Then it will be me, Mavic Chen, who will be next in line.
And I will be there behind you.
Of course.
Is your special force dealing with Bret Vian?
Not completely.
I thought it would be better to use the ordinary security men.
Very good.
We will need your men next time.
Who is in command?
Kingdom.
Kingdom?
Ruthless, hard, efficient, and does exactly as ordered.
I see.
Carry out emergency plan D.
The traitors have arrived.
Good.
But not in the landing area.
What?
They have crashed at the experimental station.
There is no one here. We have to wait. Come on.
Kingdom is here.
Good.
Come on, Kingdom. Come on.
Do you know what happened?
Yes.
Do you know how many there are?
Three.
Bret Vian and two strangers.
They look like they could come from Earth, but they are strangely dressed.
None of them can leave the plant.
Good.
They are in the main block.
I'm going to catch them myself.
Before you do that,
there is something you have to know.
Where is this Daxter?
It will not be long.
I think we're wasting time sitting here,
waiting for this Daxter, or whatever he calls himself.
Doctor, Daxter is in a position to help us.
Surely everyone knows that the ship has crashed.
It's only a short distance away.
There must be hundreds of people looking for us.
Doctor, there are very few people allowed near this place.
It is a restricted area.
Do not you understand that Chen will probably return to Earth by this time?
He will realize that I was on the planet Kemble.
I expect that we will want men by this time.
But this is an experimental plant.
There are no scientists, no staff, no one.
We may as well have landed on an empty planet.
What on Earth is happening?
Doctor, I do not know more than you do.
Would it have happened to you if we had deliberately embarked on an ambush?
What's the point of standing here and waiting to be caught?
Because Daxter is the only man who will believe our story.
What story?
So you will understand that it is absolutely essential that this M of Terranium is returned to me.
Of course.
Every precaution for its safety will be taken.
Good.
See to it.
She actually believed you.
Of course.
I thought for a moment that you were really going to tell her about the Daleks.
Oh, come on.
We need that Terranium back.
But we can not allow any more people to know the plan.
I was watching her all the time.
She never doubted anything, even momentarily.
A good security agent.
A heroic cry for war to seemingly peaceful ends.
It is one of the greatest weapons a politician has.
Mavic Chin, the Daleks.
I can not believe it.
The doctor saw it.
Quite true. And then he gave a rather pompous speech of self-satisfaction and handed over the core of the time destructor to the Daleks.
They intend to capture or destroy the solar system and Chin is helping them.
But why?
A lust for more power than he already has.
Universal power.
It is incredible.
Do not worry about its incredibility. We have to do something to stop it.
Yes, quite so.
So whatever plan you have, it is essential that Stephen and I return to the planet Kemble.
I want to recover something of unique value.
You did not leave the Terranium there?
No, no. The doctor has it.
Good.
That gives us a little time.
Very little. We have to move fast.
Of course.
We must get down to the security buildings at once.
The planets must all be alerted.
A combined task force must be sent off to Kemble immediately.
No.
What do you mean, doctor? What are you playing at?
I suggest you ask Dexter what he is playing at.
I do not understand. Look, this situation must be dealt with at once.
What price is Mavic Chen paying you for your treachery?
Treachery? I have known this man all my life. He is no traitor.
Long acquaintance is no guarantee for honesty.
Ask him. Ask him how he came to know that the core of their time destructor was Terranium.
Do not be so ridiculous.
One of you mentioned it when you were telling me. Why, you yourself mentioned it when you said to have Chen handed the stuff over.
I did not, sir. How long have you been in this conspiracy?
What conspiracy? You are making a stupid mistake.
There is you and Chen and how many of the others? Or what others are involved?
Look, Red. You have known me for many years. You know I would not be mixed up in anything like this.
How did you know about the Terranium?
He told me. For heaven's sake, you must have heard him.
You too. Traitor.
You brainless idiot.
How many times have I told you about taking lives?
We have other ways and means of dealing with this.
You are a fool.
We have other ways and means of dealing with evil doers.
He deserved worse.
Possibly. But now we shall never know whom we can trust.
A signal from the planet Earth.
Report. Marvick Chen has almost recaptured the Terranium core.
And will be returning with it to land here in two Earth days.
Have the fugitives been exterminated?
The report did not say.
But it is believed that they come from the 10th galaxy under the leadership of Trantis.
That is not true.
This is a plot by Marvick Chen to discredit me.
He is jealous of my power in the outer galaxies.
We shall see.
Has the report been confirmed?
No. It was a suspicion by the Earth people.
It is Chen.
He is trying to undermine the balance of the Galactic Council.
When Marvick Chen returns, we shall discover the truth.
By then, those who stole the Terranium will have been identified and exterminated.
I need to get into the security building and send out the warning myself.
And how do you propose to do that?
We are probably being searched for now by other friends of Chen.
I mean, Daxter clearly knew about the disappearance of the Terranium.
Yes, possibly. We filled in the story long before he gave himself away.
I could try and bluff my way out.
Well, it is worth a try.
Well, you have not thought of a better idea.
Yes, possible. If you had not killed Daxter, of course, there would not be any need to.
Of course there would. We would not have been able to believe anything he said.
There is not much point in standing here discussing it any longer.
We shall have to try out your scheme.
Though I very much doubt of any sort of success that he might have.
Sarah.
Brent.
You are just the person we need.
I doubt that.
Which of you has the Terranium?
On point!
Give me the Terranium.
Sarah, please listen to me.
Give me the Terranium.
You too.
Vorka!
Vorka, where are you?
Yes?
The two fugitives have escaped.
All exits of the main block are to be guarded.
That is Brent Byam.
Yes. He is dead.
The others must be killed as well.
They will be shot on sight.
But aim for the head.
To be continued...
