01x11 - Hannibal the Hunter / The Galaxy Trio and the Cavemen of Primevia / The Empress of Evil

[bunniefuu]

Birdman!

Birdman!

I, Hannibal, the greatest
hunter in the world.

I have hunted down
every known wild beast.

But there is yet one that I
would add to my collection.

The greatest game of all.

Birdman!

I must add him to my collection.

I have devised a plan by which
to lure him to my island.

Then the hunt shall begin.

There below me is the university
where Professor Demetrius,

Birdman's oldest friend, teaches.

What? What's this?
I am caught in a net!

It is useless to struggle, Professor.

You are the bait for the
greatest trophy of all.

You'll never get away with this.

Ah, but I will!

When Birdman hears of your capture,
he will spare no effort to rescue you.

And then the hunt shall begin.

Birdman!

Your old friend, Professor Demetrius,

has been captured by a man
known as Hannibal the Hunter.

We received word from Hannibal that
you alone can enter the island forest.

Nothing must endanger
Professor Demetrius' life.

I'm on my way!

Good luck, Birdman.

Birdman!

You best stay within range, Avenger.

I'm going down.

The island is below.

I don't know what Hannibal's plot is,

but I'd better approach with caution
for Professor Demetrius' sake.

Tread cautiously indeed, Birdman.

Your every move is being watched
by the greatest hunter of them all.

I've triggered some sort of signal.

And so the battle begins.

A solar blast will confuse
them temporarily.

So, you've passed my first
trap successfully, Birdman.

But there are others ahead.

I must be on guard for other traps.

I don't want to harm these animals.

I've been out of the
sunlight too long.

I'd better fly up and out of
here to recharge my energy.

Very clever.

A steel net.

I'll free myself with
an energy charge.

Just as I feared.

My energy has been diminished
to a point where I can't break free.

I counted on that Birdman.

And thus I have succeeded
where all others have failed.

To capture the mighty Birdman.

You shall be my greatest trophy.

I have carefully planned this, Birdman.

The net you are in will
drop slowly into the pit,

where my hungry friends
will take care of you.

Farewell, Birdman.

I'm disappointed that you weren't
a better challenge to me.

Birdman to Avenger.
Birdman to Avenger.

You must clear the foliage so that
I can recharge in the sunlight.

I feel my energy coming back.

First of all, I will set these
trapped animals free.

Thank you, Avenger.

I must hurry to save
Professor Demetrius.

Birdman!

I have disposed of the
greatest game of all.

Your friend, Birdman.

Now I'll dispose of you.

I cannot believe that you
have subdued Birdman.

It matters not what you believe.

Your time is soon coming to an end.

Stop where you are, Hannibal.

You're through as a hunter.

How can this be?

Birdman, thank you for saving me,

but Hannibal is getting away.

I'll come back for him,

but first we'll get rid
of his hunting lodge

and all of his weapons.

He has released the wild animals.

What?

I'm caught in one of my own traps.

There he is below, Avenger,

caught in one of his own traps.

We'll take him to the Navy boat,

and our job here is finished.

Birdman!

I can't believe we're finally
heading to planet Earth

and Intergalactic headquarters
for our annual meeting.

Look what's coming. Dead ahead.

Jumping Jupiter, a derelict spaceship,
and it's heading our way fast.

Quick, the defense
shield to deflect it.

We kept it from colliding, but we
must put that ship under control.

Someone in there may be hurt.

I'll move us in close behind,

and maybe you can
control it, Gravity Girl.

Get as close as you can.

Now let's get inside and find
who's operating that runaway.

This acto-mist should do it.

He's coming to.

No. No!

I refuse to be your sl*ve any longer.

You cannot make me go back.

He's pointing at you.

You look like the evil beings

who have enslaved the people
of my planet, Primevia,

and who have made us
dig for stones and rocks.

Stones and rocks?

I think this explains it.

Our friend here and the
people of his planet

are sitting on untold wealth
in gems and precious metals.

I know where the planet Primevia is.

They've always been
a peace-loving people,

though not as advanced
as their neighbors.

We'd better investigate.

We're on our way.

There it is, right below.

We'd better dock in space and go down
through the use of the lason cube.

Condor One locked in space. Check.

We'd better go down two at a time.

But be careful when you get down there.

They don't know we come in friendship.

The welcoming committee is here.
Look out.

I see what you mean.

Look out for those arrows.

I don't know how long we're going
to be able to hold them off.

And we don't want to hurt them.

Better put up our hands
until the others get here.

My friends, these three saved
me and have come to help us.

We at Primevia will be free again
if we let them show us the way.

Let us disguise ourselves as you people,
and we will do what we can to free you.

Hurry up.

Our spaceship isn't even half-filled.

One of the mines is crumbling.

You'd better blast it wider for us.

Where is it?

Follow me.

Right in here.

What's this?

Mutiny?

I'm being sealed off.

Get me out of here.

You stay right there until
we're ready to deal with you.

Wait. Let me out.

I surrender.

Just sit tight.
I'll be back for you.

You're new at this job.

I haven't met you before.

Perhaps you can help me.

The fire's growing low.

A simple task for a being
from the planet Vaporous.

And here's a simple task to put
you out of action for a while.

You'll get 20 lashes for this.

Keep an eye on this noisy one.

He will not escape.

One is out of the way.

Make that two.

Now let's find Vapor Man
and get their leader.

Let's go in and get him.

No. This one is mine.

I must do it alone.

The honor of the planet
Vaporous is at stake.

Who are you and how dare
you invade my domain?

Guards! Attack him!

We have served you too long.

This stranger has come
to challenge you.

So be it.

You shall see me destroy him

and then you will pay
for your disobedience.

This Freeze Vapor will deal with you.

So, a formidable foe.

I shall enjoy this battle.

Very fast, but not fast enough.

This parafog will stop you.

Don't try to get away.

It's useless.

Your powers are even
greater than I expected.

He is heading for
the pit of the winds.

Do not enter there.

It will prove fatal.

I must escape.

But where will it take him?

To the very center of the planet,

where he will remain for all his days.

We shall keep plunders from
looting your planet in the future,

so that you may live
your own way in peace.

Many thanks to you, Galaxy Trio.

But what of the other two invaders?

I've set the controls for
the planet Vaporous,

and they will be dealt with
when they reach there.

I'm glad it was you who put an end

to the tyranny that ruled
the people of Primevia.

I'm glad it was, too,

or I would never have been able to
face the people of my own planet.

Let's go.

We're late for the intergalactic
meeting on Earth.

Birdman!

D'Akhor, let us dismount and
continue the hunt on foot.

I do not deem it wise, Prince Jarl.

It is rumored a vicious
tiger st*lks the jungle.

Fear not the female tiger, D'Akhor.

My spear shall protect you.

Ha! A tigress indeed.

The young prince will find his spear

an ineffective twig against
the mighty powers of Medusa.

Help!

We're caught.

Look, D'Akhor.

A female giant has
captured my guards.

Beware, my prince.

That's one of the powerful Amazons
of the treacherous Medusa.

Your uncomplimentary
deduction is correct.

And now I shall make the
young prince my prisoner.

Not so fast, Medusa.

My elephant will shake you
from your tree and crush you.

Charge, Dubo, charge!

Perhaps now you fear
the female tiger, eh?

I fear no one, Medusa.

Especially not one as wicked as you.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

We shall see how long
your bravery lasts.

Birdman,

bad news concerning your good friend,
the Maharaja of Ramadan.

What is it, Falcon 7?

His young son, Prince Jarl, has been
kidnapped by the evil Medusa.

Medusa?

But I thought she had been
destroyed by her own fiendish magic.

I'm afraid not, Birdman.

Then I've no time to waste.

Come, Avenger.

The evil plans of Medusa
shall be foiled by...

Birdman!

We should be over Medusa's mountain
hideout any second, Avenger.

I see her, boy, and she's seen us.

No doubt that was a warning
she sent to Medusa.

Stay here, Avenger.

I'm going down to have a look.

It is Birdman, my Empress.

He's heading directly for us.

So it is.

The fool.

Once again, he's about to
enter into my clutches.

I'll find you, Medusa.

It's merely a matter of time.

Her chambers must be that way.

No need to look, Birdman.

Here I am.

So, Medusa, we meet again.

Yes. And for the last and final time.

You are trapped, Birdman.

Look behind you.

A wise maneuver, Medusa.

You know I won't harm women.

Exactly.

And on this end is my
impregnable wall of fire.

So you see, Birdman,
it is the end for you.

Stop!

You've gotten through, Birdman,

but you won't be as fortunate
with my demon of fire.

Uh-oh.

Looks as if Medusa is determined
to keep the heat on me.

Let's see how a solar blast
works on this hothead.

A single solar blast only
gave the demon more energy.

This time I'll have to
use all my solar power.

I've got to force it back.

Using all my solar energies
has left me almost powerless.

Correct.

Take him to the pit of terror.

How do you like my
precious pets, Birdman?

A frightful sight, Medusa,
but no match for you.

You shall pay double
for that insult, Birdman.

But first, the young prince.

Let me go. Let me go.

Birdman, she's got you too.

I'm afraid so, Prince Jarl.

The prince has one
hour left, Birdman.

But for you, time is up.

Birdman, I've a reprieve.

The diamond of the sun god Ra.

In your hand, the stored energies
of centuries will be radiated.

Got it.

Thanks, Jarl.

I can feel the power
surging through me.

Quickly, into the pit.

Let's go, Prince Jarl.

Thanks to your sun diamond,

my powers have been
completely restored.

You know your powers are ineffective
when it comes to my Amazons.

Seize him.

My solar desensitizer
merely freezes them

where they are without harming them.

That narrows it down
to you and me, Birdman.

Let's see how you fare against
the greatest power of them all.

The piercing ray cast
by my serpent's eye.

My own power, joined with
that of the sun diamond,

will put an end to your
wickedness, Medusa.

I'll never surrender, Birdman.

I'd rather join my pets.

Farewell!

No, Medusa.

Thanks for saving my life, Birdman.

But what about Medusa?

Is she gone for good?

I don't know, Prince Jarl.

We can only hope that she has cast

the last of her evil
spells for a long time.

Birdman!

Birdman!
