The Space Rovers -- "One Moment in Time -- Part 2" Persia, Grunt, Alethia, Tungstun, Samantha, Cactus Jake, Numbia (who looks like Shag), Poncho (who looks like Blitz), Otto (who looks like Exile) and Star find themselves surrounded by Parvo and his mutants. ALETHIA (looks at Persia): Persia, what do you suggest we do now? PERSIA (tele to the other Rovers): Listen to me, everyone. We cannot afford a confrontation that may alter the time line any further. We still have sixteen hours before the Master's murder, we must remain free. Otto...Samantha.... Otto and Sam nod their heads, with a sudden loud BOOM!! the ten Rovers disappear before Parvo and Groomer's eyes. PARVO (shouts); WHAT THE??? GROOMER (angry): Teleportation! They're gone! PARVO (looks around): Oh great! The alarm has sounded! The Rovers of THIS time period will come to investigate! We have to escape now! Parvo takes out a large remote control looking device out of his pocket, aims and pushes a button. A glowing portal appears, he motions for his cano-mutants to exit through it. Parvo is the last one to enter the portal as it closes. PARVO (sternly); We'll come back a little later in the timeline, to make sure those other Rovers don't ruin our plans... Meanwhile, Otto and Samantha has teleported the others a few miles from Mission Control. ALETHIA (sternly): Ok, we're safe for now. Let's talk about the facts. Two things have happaned. First, Parvo has gotten his hands on some sort of time machine. Secondly, somehow in the present, he has learned where our secret base is. PERSIA (nods): Correct. Now we have fifteen and a half hours to solve this mystery. OTTO (sternly): Actually, we have fifteen hours, twenty nine minutes, forty seconds... STAR (nods): Alright, but what's our next move? The scene shifts back to the present, at Mission Control Patch and Thomas have taken their turn in maintaining the 'spell' on the Master. PATCH (turns to Whitey): How much longer before you have that thing ready? WHITEY (sternly); This 'thing' as you call it is a delicate piece of equipment that must be carefully constructed and then tested and ... FLASH (smiles): About a half hour, sugar! DAISY (using wrench): Maybe less time if we can bypass a few subroutines! HUBERT (nods): We must be able to freeze time in a confined space for an indefinate period of time. THOMAS (sternly): Hurry you guys! We can't keep this up forever! In the infirmary, Catman, Amos, Hannah and Porthos are all resting, exhausted by having to have maintained the time 'spell'. Catman has morph back into his human form as Katrina and Felicia sit by his bedside. KATRINA (sadly): CATMAN!! WAKE UP!!! FELICIA (sadly): Poor Catman, he gave it his all... CATMAN (weakly): Ladies..... please.... KATRINA & FELICIA (together): Yes? CATMAN (weakly): I'll... be....fine..... stand ...ready ... to .... relieve .... your ..... brothers..... FELICIA (softly): Don't worry, sweetie! Rupee and her daughter have the next turn in maintaining the spell As Patch and Thomas begin to wabble, Rupee and Shamansta move beside them and lift their arms up. RUPEE (shouts); Daughter, be ready to match my spell! SHAMANSTA (shouts): I don't know if I can do this, my magic is not as powerful as yours... RUPEE (shouts): Do not doubt yourself, you can do this! Focus on my thoughts, we will do this together! Now completely exhausted, Patch and Thomas fall to the floor as Rupee and Shamansta take over holding the spell on the Master. RUPEE (nods): Good, good! See? You're doing it! SHAMANSTA (nods): Yes! It's working! RUPEE (smiles): Steady child, we must maintain this spell until the others finish their machine. In the Professor's lab... HUBERT (shouts): Ok! Looks like we're ready! FLASH (nods): Great! Daddy, let's take it out to the briefing room! DAISY (nods): Good thing we thought to put wheels on it! Into the briefing room, Daisy, Flash, Whitey, Bob and Professor Hubert bring the large tall grayish machine in. It has a long power cord, and many flashing lights along with four tall metal 'lightning rods' mounted on stands and attached with wires to the rest of the machine. The bloodhounds carefully 'surround' the Master with the four rods and then activate the device. HUBERT (flips switch): Here we go... DAISY (pushing buttons): Generating time field... FLASH (nods): It's working! RUPEE (looks at Flash): Are you sure? Once we release this spell, the Master could... FLASH (smiles): Don't worry, sugar! We've got it covered! WHITEY (sternly); In other words, Miss Rupee, you may release your spell now Rupee and Shamansta lower their arms and watch as a blue field forms around the Master. RUPEE (nods): Yes, it's holding! SHAMANSTA (happy): Good work! WHITEY (sternly): We have completed our task, let's hope Persia and the others complete theirs. The scene now switches back to the past. Hunter, Colleen, Shag, Blitz and Exile rush into the motor pool to investigate the alarm that had sounded. In the invisible time machine, Fydo looks nervously through the window as Hunter and Colleen walk slowly towards him. FYDO (scared); Oh dear! If they find the time machine we're all in trouble! Fydo is relieved when Exile motions to the others and they all follow him in the other direction. FYDO (sigh of relief); Whoa... that was close! VAM, get me Captain Persia on the comm link VAM (female, sexy voice); Anything for you, handsome... FYDO (scared): Er....yeah..... PERSIA (on speaker): Fydo, are you still in the time machine? FYDO (shouts): Yes Captain, and the Rovers of this time period have just left the area PERSIA (on speaker); Alright, just stay there until you hear from me. Persia out. The scene now shifts back to the desert location where Otto, Samantha,.Cactus Jake, Tungstun, Grunt, Numbia, Poncho, Star, Alethia and Persia are. GRUNT (loud): GRRRRRRRRRRRR GROWL GRRRRRRRRRRRRR? CACTUS JAKE (looks at Persia): Good question Captain, what do we do now? PERSIA (sternly): Parvo may return at any time to try to stop us again. This is what I suggest, the five of you that are disguised as the original Rovers, you will go into Mission Control, mingle with the others, keep your eyes out for Parvo while staying away from your 'doubles'. The rest of us will join Fydo in the time machine and monitor things best we can from there, ok? ALETHIA (nods): Ok, let's do it, Road Rovers! STAR (nods): Good plan, Persia! CACTUS JAKE (hands Star his cowboy hat): Hang on to this for me... SAMANTHA (sternly): I'll have to practice my English accent... PERSIA (sternly): Avoid speaking at all costs, if any of you are found ot be phonies, the entire time line could be damaged even further. Ok, let's go! A loud BOOM!!! shakes the area as the ten disappear. Persia, Star, Alethia, Tungstun and Grunt have joined Fydo in the time machine while Cactus Jake, Samantha, Otto (who looks like Exile) Poncho (who looks like Blitz) and Numbia (who looks like Shag) enter the motor pool and begin to spread out and search the other rooms of Mission Control for any signs of Parvo. Samantha opens the door to the briefing room and finds Hunter inside. HUNTER (runs over to her): Wait Colleen, I have something to tell you... alone... Samantha gets nervous as Hunter closes the door. HUNTER (smiles): I know that you kinda like me, so, what do you say if I asked you out on a date! Samantha nods politely as Hunter moves closer. HUNTER (softly): I've always liked you, my dear.... Hunter and Samantha kiss, then Hunter smiles as walks towards the door. HUNTER (shouts): See you at eight, ok? Samantha nods as Hunter walks out. SAMANTHA (to herself): Oh NO!! I hope Otto didn't see that... Meanwhile, Poncho walks into the kitchen, only to see Shag with his head in the fridge. SHAG (looks up, smiles): Rah rah ruff ruff roor roo! PONCHO (talking like Blitz): You have someting for me? Shag hands Poncho a large peppermint milkshake. He looks up at Shag, realizing he must act like Blitz, he sips the drink. When Shag turns around to grab a sandwich, Poncho quickly dumps the milkshake into the garbage. PONCHO (talking like Blitz): Danka shane, Shag! SHAG (smiles): Rah rive roo roar!!! PONCHO (to himself): "I'll give you more?", Aye carbumba! Dees stuff tastes terrible!! In the lounge area, Otto collides with Blitz. BLITZ (angry): Vatch it, snowball! OTTO (talks like Exile): Sorry Comrade Blitz! BLITZ (flexes muscle): I am dee best Road Rover, so vatch your step next time! Time passes, and no sign of Parvo is seen by any of the 'undercover' Rovers. Numbia now searches Shag's quarters. As she is looking behind a dresser, the real Shag walks in. Unable to hide, she steps behind the dresser and mimics Shag's behavior, making him appear to see a reflection in a mirror. Numbia keeps up with Shag, until she sneezes. Shag whines and opens his door and sees Hunter. Numbia morphs into a wall mirror as Shag drags Hunter over. HUNTER (smiles): So, Shagster, is THIS what has you all fired up, buddy? SHAG (nods): Ruh HUH! Ruh HUH! HUNTER (making funny faces at mirror): Nothing wrong with your mirror, Shag. Are you sure you wasn't just seeing things? SHAG (nods): Ruh Rurr! HUNTER (giggles): Don't sweat it, Shagster, let's go get a cup of coffee... Meanwhile, as Samantha is searching in the motor pool, Blitz sneaks up behind her. BLITZ (surprises her); Hello pretty dog girl! Before She can react, Blitz gives her a quick kiss on the lips. SAMANTHA (outraged); HEY!! I'M MARRIED!!! BLITZ (shocked); Your voice... you.... you're not Colleen! SAMANTHA (embarrassed): Oh NO! The angry Samantha kicks Blitz in the stomache, sending him flying across the room to the other wall. BLITZ (dizzy); Er.... dat's Colleen alright.... I'd know dat kick anyvare!!! Cactus Jake is walking towards the motor pool when he encounters Colleen. CACTUS JAKE (whispers): Find anything, Sam? COLLEEN (shocked); Who in the bloomin' world is Sam? Is this a joke? CACTUS JAKE (surprised, now talks like Hunter): Er.. yeah, that's it, a joke! COLLEEN (smiles): Well Huntie Wuntie, THIS is no joke! She kisses Cactus Jake passionately, winks and walks away. CACTUS JAKE (worried): I sure hope Hunter doesn't find out about this... As Cactus Jake enters the motor pool, Blitz is running out of it screaming. Cactus Jake sees Samantha and walks over to her. SAMANTHA (moves back): Please don't kill me again! CACTUS JAKE (shocked): Sam, it's me, Cactus Jake! SAMANTHA (relieved): Oh... sorry, Mr Jake, sir. CACTUS JAKE (laughs): It's ok, I just got kissed by Colleen! And ... Suddenly, the two see a bright shimmering light on the far side of the motor pool. CACTUS JAKE (points): It's Parvo! He's come back! SAMANTHA (shocked); Oh NO!! CACTUS JAKE (looks at her): Quick Sam, make us invisible... we have to get word to your husband, Numbia and Poncho somehow.... A portal opens, Parvo, Groomer and six cano-mutants walk out of it. PARVO (looks around): Oh GREAT!! There are no Rovers here at all! GROOMER (looks at Parvo): My General, it's only twenty minutes before the Rovers of THIS time leave for their mission! PARVO (nods): I can't be here for that because I will be appearing in the briefing room in thirty minutes to kill the Master! (sternly): I'll leave you and these mutants here in this period. Be ready to storm the briefing room at that time. Until then, all of you, stay hidden. We can't let anything interfere with my triumph! GROOMER (salutes): Understood, my General! Parvo reenters the portal as it disappears. Groomer and the cano-mutants find hiding places in the motor pool, one hides very close to where the invisible time machine is. FYDO (pointing): Captain, Captain! Look at this! PERSIA (sternly): Looks like Parvo's left us a reception committee. ALETHIA (looks at Persia): What can we do now? PERSIA (sternly): It is now twenty five minutes from the time of the assassination. Better think of something fast, or history will repeat itself.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------- to be continued...
