Episode 8: Kuro Bon, The Ace Trump Card Of The Dragons"
By: Sakaki (Michael Jokoh)
Shiro: Pass the Paki please.
Ao: This is the third one you've had.
Shiro: Just GIVE ME ONE!
(Ao quickly hands over the merchandise.)
Aka: This is such a nice day to have a picnic.
Kiiro: Yep the ants will be here any minute to ruin things. (Sighs.) I just hope they can stomach Akabon's cooking.
(Kiiro gets hit with a frying pan.)
Aka: Of course I brought this along just in case you might want something else. Hungry Kiirobon?
Kiiro: No ma'am
(Kiiro gets hit again.)
Aka: Address me as queen please.
Kiiro: No queen Akabon.
Aka: Thank you!
Ao: Umm I wonder where Kurobon is?
Shiro(Between food.): Me no know. Haven't seen him since the first episode.
Ao: Well shouldn't we be just a little worried about him?
Aka: Well he is strong, handsome, rugged...(To herself) the man I want to marry...
Kiiro: Akabon has become Kurobon infatuated.
Shiro: At least we know that she isn't worried, I wish Akira could have come.
Ao: Well today's a school day. Maybe we'll plan another picnic on the weekend.
Kiiro: Yeah whatever just make sure Akabon doesn't bring any weapons.
(Kiiro gets hit with a frying pan. The gang begins to laugh and not notice a shadowy figure watching them from a tree. Later that night Akira is on his roof as his mother and sister sleep.)
Akira: I hope Mom doesn't find me up here or she'll kill me.
(He looks into the sky.)
Akira: So still so black inky night. Only the more mysterious enigmas come out now.
(A far away owl hoots.)
Akira: Maybe I should go inside...
(Then a whooshing sound can be heard. Akira looks around, and is assaulted by a gale force wind. He tries to look towards the source of the windstorm all he sees is a giant robot covered in shadows. Akira is then blown away into a nearby tree, and the robot then lifts off and flies away.)
Akira(Dazed.): What in the world of b-da was that?!
(The next morning Shirobon is fixing up some things when Akira walks into the kitchen.)
Shiro: Mornin Kiddo.
Akira: Good morning. Umm Shirobon, were you flying around in the white gale last night?
Shiro: No...Not really why?
Akira: Cause' I couldn't sleep and so I went outside, then this huge robot comes out of no where and blows me away! Literally!
Shiro: Oh man! Could this mean another guy has a bot?
Akira: Could be.
Shiro: I think we may need to go deeper into this one...
(Meanwhile the dragons too are planning next steps.)
Blue: Black dragon, you managed to beat all three of the bots in the last battle?
Black: Yeah, and I gave them a warning not to come back.
Brown: But knowing those meddling super heroes, they will be back.
Blue: What's the plan?
Black: Quite simply we rip them into pieces.
Brown: As much as I'd love to do that there are 4 of us and 5 of them.
Black: Yeah that's right. That little brat that beat us once and sent Red packing.
(Red enters.)
Red: Someone mentions me?
Black: Yeah. Ready to kick some ass?
Red: We're going to fight those b-daman again? But they defeated us once...
Black: Yes but now we have a battle plan. I did a little homework on those b-daman and I know one of their weaknesses.
Brown: Oooh delicious. So we will strike at the weak one yes?
Red: Which one?
Black: All will be revealed. (Turns to the shadows.) Unless someone here isn't ready to fight.
(The response is a pair of red gleaming eyes that seem to burn from the darkness.)
Black: Looks like we're gung ho then.
(All the dragons laugh evilly. Now we go to Akira who is talking to his friends in front of his school during recess.)
Ken: So you're telling me you're getting a robot?
(Ken is a blue b-daman with slicked back blond hair. His blue eyes make him look like a pretty boy and so he is popular with the girls.)
Shoizu: I don't believe you.
(Shoizu is a yellow b-daman with black hair and black eyes. He's seen as the smart alecky type who isn't afraid of trouble.)
Rei: Yeah, Akira come on! Why would Shiro and the other b-da pilots give you a robot?
(Rei is a white b-da girl with black hair and deep hazel eyes. She was the only girl in the group.)
Akira: It's true! All of it!
Shoizu: Sure. Just like those dragons of yours.
Ken: Wait, those are the truth. My bigger brother works at the Yellow umbrella and a dragon attacked.
Akira: I'm gonna get a robot too, and help the b-da pilots to defeat them.
Rei: Well we need more proof than a crazy story from you.
Akira: You'll get your proof! Just wait!
(Then a b-daman in a cardboard robot suit appears.)
B-daguy: Message for Akirabon.
Akirabon: That's me!
B-daguy(singsong): Dr Grey needs to see you...do da do da Says that he has something for you do da do da come right away please don't delay Dragons might be coming soon oh da do da day.
(Ken and Shoizu clap sparsely as the b-daguy bows.)
Rei: Wait! If Dr. Grey wants to see you then...
Akira: I am a pilot!
(Akira runs out.)
Akira: I'll show you guys! I'll be fighting the dragons soon!
Ken: Why does he get to fight dragons?
Rei: Maybe it's just a fluke.
(Akira gets to the H.Q. and the gang is preparing for action.)
Akira: Okay I got the rather tasteless sing-a-gram. What do you need?
Shiro: HEY! That was my idea.
Akira: Sorry.
Shiro: Ah forget it. Dr. Grey needs to see you.
(Ao runs up.)
Ao: It's ready!
Shiro: Okay. I hope I can still fly that thing!
Akira: The White gale?
Shiro: No...
(Shiro shows Akira a robot that is a little more high tech than the white gale. It has a slot in the back of it and a larger b-da.)
Shiro: WHITE BLOSE!
Akira: Wow! That's a cool bot! But why are you using that one now?
Ao: We decided after a run in with black dragon that we need stronger bots.
Akira: What's your bot like Aobon?
Ao: Me? Well I havel... The Blue Braver!
Akirabon: Sounds brave!
Aka: Wanna see my robot Akirabon?
Akira: Yeah sure!
(Aka takes him to another room and opens the doors to reveal a giant red dragon robot.)
Aka: Cool huh?
Akira: This one is the best yet!
Kiiro: Well I guess I'll be using the Yello---
(Kiiro stops.)
Akira: What?
Kiiro: I'm ALREADY USING MY MOST POWERFUL BOT!
Aka: Really? Well then if black beat you too then you must not be a very good pilot.
Kiiro: SHUT UP!!!!
(Then Shiro comes in.)
Shiro: Okay guys ready to go? The dragons have been seen heading for town.
(Every one nods.)
Akira: Hey Shiro what about me?
Shiro: Dr Grey wants to see you!
Akira: I wanna help!
(The others are leaving. Akira sighs)
Dr.Grey: Don't worry boy. I got something for you.
(Akira looks quizzically at him, Meanwhile the others have just met the dragons on their way to town.)
Shiro: The Buck stops here boys!!
Red: Hey are those new robots?
Black: WHY SHOULD YOU CARE?!?!
Blue: New or not they're now where you'll die!
(The Dragons lunge for the B-da force, And Shiro starts things off with a b-da blast. They manage to avoid this but then Kiiro and Ao jump on Red and Blue. Black and Brown take on Shiro and Aka. Aka shoots out a flaming red b-da, and this stops Brown in his tracks. Black decides to up things with...)
Black: Jigoku FLAMING DEATH!
(The fireball heads straight for Aka and just before it hits Blue and Red are thrown into harms way instead.)
Black: What?!!?!??
(Blue and Red are now Hiryu sized and sit motionless.)
Black: Drat! Now it's Brown and me.
Shiro: Yes! Aka, Ao and me Kiiro can handle this one.
Aka: Right I'll be back up.
(Shiro, Kiiro and Ao battle with Black and Brown and they are winning. Then all of a sudden a shot is heard.)
Ao: What the?!
(Then the blue braver is struck down.)
Kiiro: Who is that?
(Then a robot comes down and hits Kiiro at full force.)
Kiiro: AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
(Kiiro flies into a nearby mountain.)
Shiro: Is it that being again?
(Then the robot swiftly cuts the boosters on the White Blose, and this makes Shiro crash into the ground.)
Shiro: What was that?
Aka: Or Who was it?
(Then the Robot slows down. And it's the...)
Everyone: BLACK DEVISTATOR?!?!?!?
Aka: That means only one thing!
(The robot's cockpit opens up and it reveals Kurobon as the pilot.)
Aka: Kurobon you're okay! I knew that you were.
Shiro: Something is not right here...
Aka: Kurobon why did you defeat all of our friends?
(Kuro looks at her with no friendship or empathy in his eyes. Aka notices this, and begins to get a little worried.)
Aka: What happened to you?
Kuro: I have become a supreme warrior.
Aka: You always have been a good fighter.
Kuro: But I have been blindsighted by the fight for truth and freedom.
Ao: You don't mean...
Kuro: Yes. I have joined with the superior race. The race that will rule b-da land with an iron fist. The race of the Dragons!
Aka: Kurobon! Say it isn't so! You don't mean that!
(Kuro looks at her menacingly and fires a shot at the Flare dragon.)
Ao,Kiiro&Shiro: Akabon!
(The flare dragon falls on it's side unmoving.)
Shiro: You have to attack him!
Black: HA HA HA HA! She won't! I've done my homework on you pathetic beings! She won't attack Kurobon because of the simple crush she has on him!
Kiiro: This was all a setup!
Brown: You bet. And now it's over. (To Kurobon) Kill her first then the rest of them.
(Kuro hesitates and then powers up, and inside the Flare Dragon Aka can only watch sadly as she is about to be destroyed.)
Aka: I cannot believe this is happening... Kurobon has left us...left me for evil...
(Kurobon is about to fire when his bot is hit by a fire ball.)
Black: What is it now!?
(A light green robot appears. It has a cannon for one arm and a hand for the other. The center has a blue phoenix and the face was that of the white gale.)
Shiro: Could it be?
(Then it opens up and it is)
Akira: Me! I'm here to save the day!!
Kuro: Who is this little brat?
Akira: Kurobon? Don't you recognize me?
Shiro: the dragons are controlling him!
Akira: Really?
(Then the black devastator grabs his bot and throws it to the ground near the Flare Dragon.)
Kuro: Hmph. Things have become too crowded for me. I'm outta here.
(Kuro picks up the still unctuous Blue and Red and leaves.)
Black: Hey! You can't leave us!
(Black leaves. Brown looks at them one more time grins evilly and leaves too.)
Akira: Aww man...I failed...
Shiro: It's okay. We should see if Aka is okay...
(They all get out of their robots and head over to the flare dragon.)
Shiro: Aka?
Ao: Are you okay?
(Aka sits up and smiles weakly.)
Aka: Yeah. I'm fine. Thank you Akira.
Akira: You're welcome I guess.
Ao: We'd better go peel Kiiro off the mountain he's stuck to.
Shiro: Aka...You're gonna be okay right?
Aka: Just fine. (sighs) I just can't believe it.
Shiro: None of us can. But at least that's more of a reason to defeat these Dragons...
(They look at the leaving Dragons with a new member...one of their own members, and now the fight with the dragons has become a fight now for true love...)
