The Grand Zodiac King stands majestically before Arctice.  In Mount Havoc, Dimoc is in an uproar about Zodiac Five's mecha.

Dimoc:  Curses!  It can't be!

Levina:  I'm afraid it is, oh Great One.

Dimoc:  Silence before I have you removed.

Levina simply glares at Dimoc as Balizar and Vex look over at her.

Dimoc:  We'll see how powerful their mecha really is.

Inside the Grand Zodiac King, Aries and the others prepare for battle.

Pisces:  Man, this is awesome!

Gemini:  Dimoc and his goons don't stand a chance.

Aries:  Libra, does everything check out okay?

Libra:  We're ready to go.

Aries:  Right.  Prepare for battle.

All:  Grand Zodiac King!

Arcitce roars out and rushes in with a punch.  The Grand Zodiac King block the punch and throws Arctice to the ground.  Arcitce recovers and fires icy blasts out at the Grand Zodiac King.

Aries:  Vitality Shield!

The Grand Zodiac King uses the shield to block the ice.  Arcitce continues to fire his blasts, forming ice and snow around the area.

Taurus:  He could freeze the world in a matter of hours.

Libra:  He could cause a second ice age.

Aries:  Not if we can stop him first.  Luminary Missiles!

The Grand Zodiac King fires missles at Arctice who is struck by them.  Arctice stumbles back but jumps in the air and kicks the Grand Zodiac King.  Arctice forms two blades of ice on his arms and begins to slash away at the Grand Zodiac King.  Blasts explode across the Grand Zodiac King's chest.

All:  Ahh!

Aries:  How are we holding up?

Libra:  Only minimal damage reported.

Taurus:  But we can't continue to take this.

Aries:  Alright.  Let's finish him off then.  Celestial Blade!

The Celestial Blade appears in the hand of the Grand Zodiac King.  Arcitce steps back at the sight of it.  The Grand Zodiac King starts to attack Arctice who tries to defend himself from the attack.

All:  Grand Zodiac Slash!

The Celestial Blade begins to glow and the Grand Zodiac King gives one final blow to destroy Arctice who falls and explodes in a ball of fire.  Zodiac Five expresses their excitement on their victory in the cockpit.

In Mount Havoc, all are bowed down and silent in front of Dimoc as he starts to breathe heavily.  Balizar begins to speak.

Balizar:  Great Di--

Dimoc:  Silence!

Balizar slowly lowers his head and stays bowed.

Dimoc:  To think that I have spents thousands of years away from civilization living, growing, learning, preparing myself for this second coming.  And I'm confronted by this . . . this new band of Zodiac warriors only to be threatened by the idea that they might actually stop me again.  But I swear on my very existence that I will destroy Zodiac Five at any cost, even if it means destroying you, the Dimocian Clan, and the entire world.  So I suggest, if you want to live you three better come up with something to stop Zodiac Five.

Vex stands up and bows his head to Dimoc and marches off to the surface.  But Balizar grabs his arm and stops him.

Balizar:  Wait.  You're not doing this alone.

Levina:  Of course he's not.

Levina waves her staff in the air and conjures a Dimocian Beast.

Balizar:  And what do you have for us this time?  Another one of your reliable Dimocian Beasts?

Levina:  Balizar, how quick you are to criticize yet I see no reliability on your part.

Dimoc:  Enough from both of you.

Balizar simply silences himself and Levina continues to speak.

Levina:  Yes, Dimoc.  I've summoned Toxin.  His skin is covered with highly toxic chemicals, enough to poison an entire nation.

Dimoc:  And what do you plan to do?

Levina:  It's rather simple.  Toxin will go to the surface and poison the city's water supply.  Thus, the entire city will be plagued with Toxin's poison.  Zodiac Five will have one of two choices:  surrender themselves to save their people or watch as those around them . . . well, it's a rather grotesque experience.

Dimoc:  I trust that this time your plan will work, Levina.  (to Vex and Balizar) But I want you two to accompany Toxin.

Balizar:  Yes, Dimoc.

Vex nods.

Toxin:  Argh!  I will not fail, Dimoc.

At Zodiac Central, Zodiac Five walk in removing their helmets as they are greeted by Dr. Kesler.

Dr. Kesler:  Another excellent job.

Kevin:  Thanks but the credit goes to you again, Doc.

Leon:  Yeah.  The Grand Zodiac King is incredible.  It amazes me that you could produce such a phenomenal piece of machinery.

Dr. Kesler:  Well as I had said before, it has taken a lifetime of work and effort to accomplish this, as well as the help of those who believed in my work.  The human race is so powerful and many times we overlook that; the fact that once we put our minds and hearts together, we can accomplish so much.  All it takes is the hope of one person.

Paige:  You couldn't be more right, Father.

Dr. Kesler:  Thank you, dear.  Now, you all must be exhausted.  Go change and get comfortable.  I doubt that we will hear from Dimoc anytime soon.

Maya:  I hope not.  I'm just ready to get out and do something.

Leon:  Hey, then why don't you come with me on a nature hike?  We could get out and get some fresh air.

Maya:  Oh, that sounds great.  Just a few hours outside can revitalize one's spirit.  I'll go.

Marcus overhears the conversation and jumps at the chance to go.

Marcus:  Uh, me too.  Yeah, I'll go . . . um, that is if you don't mind, Leon.

While Maya looks away, Marcus mouths the word "please" to Leon who chuckles at Marcus' desperation.

Leon:  Sure, why not.  The more, the merrier.  Kevin?  Paige?

Kevin:  Eh, no thanks.  I'm going to go over some diagnostics with Dr. Kesler about the Grand Zodiac King.  There's so much more I want to know.

Paige:  I've got to get ready for an art exhibit coming up next week.  But thanks anyway.

Leon:  Sure, maybe next time.  (to Marcus and Maya) C'mon you two.  Let's get ready.

They head out to go get changed.

Balizar, Vex, Toxin and a group of Zoodos are making their way through the mountains as they find a creek that leads to the city's water supply.

Balizar:  This creek should lead to the city's water supply.  Toxin, get this plan under way.  I don't want Dimoc any more upset than he already is.

Toxin:  Argh!  Yes, Balizar.

Toxin walks over to the creek and steps into it.  The water is crystal clear.  But once he gets in the toxins on his skin wash off into the water as the water begins to glow in a murky green color.  Then the water turns clear again.

Toxin:  Soon, the entire city will be poisoned by my toxic chemicals.  Zodiac Five won't know what to do.

Balizar:  Let's hope not.  But to be certain that this plan is full-proof, let's make our way down this creek and make sure it goes directly to the main water supply.

Vex and the others follow Balizar down the side of the creek.  Further down the mountain Leon, Marcus and Maya are equipped with small backpacks and canteens and hike through the trees.  Leon leads the way as Maya follows and Marcus drags behind.

Leon:  C'mon, Marcus.  Try to keep up.

Maya:  Yeah, isn't this great?

Marcus:  Are you kidding?  I thought we were going on a small nature hike, not some mountain expidition.

Leon:  Well, we'll take a break in a second.  We should be coming up on a creek soon.

Maya walks back a few steps and grabs Marcus by the hand.

Maya:  C'mon, slowpoke.

Marcus:  Alright, alright.

They make it through the woods and find themselves at a small creek.  Marcus plants himself down on the rocks while Leon and Maya drop their bags.

Marcus:  Finally.

Maya:  Wow.  Does this creek run straight down from the mountains?

Leon:  Yeah, so it's nice and cold.  And it's clean, too.

Maya:  Really?

Leon:  Yep.  C'mon, let's have a taste.

Maya:  I could use one.

Maya and Leon crouch down by the side of the creek and cup some water in their hands and begin to drink from it.  Marcus stays in his spot on the rocks.

Maya:  Mmmm.  This is good.  Fresh water.  Marcus, you've gotta try this.

Marcus:  Nah, not right now.  But I will take some in a canteen for later.

Marcus walks over and fills up his canteen.

Leon:  Yeah, nothing like fresh water from the mountain.

Marcus:  Are you two ready to head back now?  I didn't realize how tired I really was.

Leon:  Remind me not to take you on another nature hike.

Maya:  I'm pretty bushed myself.

Leon:  Alright.  Let's go back.

As they turn to get their bags, Balizar and the others come across them.  Leon, Marcus and Maya have their backs turned so they don't notice them.

Balizar:  (to Vex and Toxin) Look.  An unexpected surprise.  Let's give them a warm welcome.

Balizar and Vex cross their swords and throw an energy blast from their swords.  The blasts hit around Leon and the others as they duck away.

Leon:  What the . . .

Balizar:  Well, well, well.  If it isn't three weary travelers.  Looks like you've taken a wrong path.

Marcus:  I don't think we noticed you anywhere on the map.

Balizar:  Consider yourself unlucky.  You've come across a new discovery, but you won't live long enough to tell anyone else.  Zoodos!

Zoodos jump through the air and surround Leon and the others.

Maya:  Let's take them out!

They engage in battle.  They manage to fight off the Zoodos but Toxin comes in for an attack.  He first attacks Leon, who only manages to get a few punches and kicks in.  Leon is then grabbed and thrown into the air.

Leon:  Ahh!

He falls to the ground and Maya and Marcus gather around to help him up.

Marcus:  Leon!

Toxin:  Ha, ha, ha!  C'mon, you can do better than that!

Leon:  Argh!  Let's do it.

All:  Celestial . . .

Maya:  Unh!

Leon:  Argh!

Maya and Leon both hunch over and grab their stomachs.  Marcus looks at them to see what's wrong.  Balizar and Vex regroup with Toxin.

Marcus:  Maya!  Leon!  Are you alright?

Balizar:  Looks like your friends have come down with something.

Marcus:  Then it's time for a little three on one!  Aiyah!

Marcus flips into the air.

Marcus:  Celestial change!

Marcus changes into Blue Pisces.

Pisces:  Pisces Mega Triton!

Pisces comes down in the middle of Balizar, Vex, and Toxin and fights with his triton.  He spins it around as he attacks and defends himself against Balizar and Vex's swords.  Toxin attacks with his hands and manages to grab hold of Pisces' triton, then uses it to thrown Pisces into the air.

Pisces:  Ahh!

Pisces falls into the shallow creek and gets back up.  Leon and Maya still clutch their stomachs as Leon tries to speak.

Leon:  Pisces . . . call, unh . . . call . . . for . . . help.

Pisces:  Leon, hang in there.

Toxin walks towards Pisces.

Toxin:  Argh!  You won't have time to call anyone when I get through with you.

Pisces:  We'll see about that.  Water Elemental Assault!

Pisces performs his elemental assault, but the piercing darts of water have no effect.  Toxin meerly absorbs the attack.

Pisces:  Hunh?  It didn't even phase him.

Toxin:  What's the matter, Pisces?  Losing your touch?  Argh!

Toxin fires blasts from his mouth which explode in the creek around Pisces.

Pisces:  Argh!

Pisces flies through the air and falls to the ground.

Balizar:  (to Toxin) Enough!  We're finished here.  Let's make sure the mission is complete.

Balizar, Vex and Toxin cross their arms and disappear.  Pisces struggles to get back up and notices they are gone.

Pisces:  Unh.  They're gone.

Maya:  Ahh!

Pisces:  Oh no.  Maya, Leon!

Pisces runs to them to make sure they are okay.

Pisces:  Just hold tight a bit longer.  (to his Z-Band) Kevin, Paige!  I need help.

At Zodiac Central, Kevin is sitting at a table when they get Pisces' call.

Kevin:  Go ahead, Pisces.  What's going on?

Pisces:  Leon and Maya are down.  They've become sick or something.

Kevin:  Alright.  We'll be right there.

Paige walks into the room holding two glasses of water.  She hands one to Kevin.

Kevin:  C'mon.  Let's go.

Paige:  Why?  What's wrong?

Kevin:  Leon and Maya are in trouble.

Paige:  Okay.

They both drink their glasses of water and set them down on the table then head out.

At Mount Havoc, Balizar and the others have returned and are before Dimoc.

Dimoc:  Did you succeed?

Balizar:  Yes, Dimoc.  But we should make certain that the water supply is poisoned.

Dimoc:  Agreed.

Levina:  It's obvious that the tainted water will eventually run into the main water supply.  We need to think globally.

Dimoc:  Explain yourself, Levina.

Levina:  This city has one of the largest bottled water manufacturing plants in the nation.  If we can poison that water as well, we'll have the entire world at our mercy.

Dimoc:  I see someone has been doing her research.

Balizar:  Hmph.

Dimoc:  Toxin!  Go the this manufacturing plant and pollute its water.  This time nothing will stop us.

Toxin:  Argh!  Yes, great Dimoc.

Back at Zodiac Central, Maya and Leon are in hospital beds as Dr. Kesler runs tests to find a diagnosis on their condition.  Both are tossing and turning in bed as beads of sweat fall from their foreheads.  The others stand close by.

Kevin:  So what's wrong with them, Doc?

Dr. Kesler:  Both are running very high fevers, their blood pressure is high, and their condition is unstable.  While running blood tests I found very high levels of  toxic chemicals.  And I have not been successful in finding anything in my medical books about them.  They are completely foreign.

Paige:  What could have brought this on?  I mean, it couldn't be airborne or else Marcus would have fallen sick too.

Dr. Kelser:  Correct.

Marcus:  What about the water from the creek?  That's where Leon and Maya drank from.

Dr. Kelser:  But that water should be clean.

Kevin:  Yeah, but that's also where they bumped into the Dimocians.  Maybe this new Dimocian Beast has something to do with it.

Dr. Kesler:  You may be right.  But I will need a sample of that water to run more tests and see if I can have my researchers find some sort of vaccine.

Kevin:  Then I'll go get it.

Marcus:  Wait!  I've got some in my canteen.  I was gonna save it for later.

Dr. Kesler:  Good thinking, Marcus.  We will get on it right away.

The alarm sounds and Paige runs to a computer.

Kevin:  Have you got a location?

Paige:  Yes.  It's at the bottled water manufacturing plant.

Marcus:  Oh no.  If  he poisons the water there, there's no way we can stop Dimoc.

Kevin:  Then we've got to act now.  Let's . . . argh!

Kevin grabs his stomach in pain.  Paige gets up from her chair to see what's wrong.

Paige:  Kevin, are you . . . unh!

Marcus:  Not you, too.

Dr. Kesler rushes over to help the two.

Dr. Kesler:  Marcus, you must hurry.  You have to stop that Dimocian Beast before the entire world falls victim to his poisons.  I will do the best I can here.

Marcus:  Yes, Dr. Kesler.  Celestial change!

Marcus transfroms into Blue Pisces and heads out.

Pisces is driving through the streets on his Z-Runner.  As he goes through the city he sees other people infected by the water falling to their knees and writhing in pain on the ground.

Pisces:  (to himself) The entire city's water supply is already polluted by the toxins.

He dismounts off his Z-Runner and runs to a woman who has fallen to the ground.  He grabs her and tries to help her up.

Pisces:  Miss, are you alright?

Woman:  Unh . . . Zodiac . . . Five, please . . . h-help us . . .

Pisces:  Don't worry just hang in there.  Help is on the way.

Pisces gently lays her back down and gets back on his Z-Runner.

Pisces:  Dimoc, there's no way I'm going to let you get away with this.

He takes off on his Z-Runner to the manufacturing plant.

When Pisces arrives at the plant, the workers are all unconscious.  Pisces checks one of the workers.

Pisces:  It looks like they've been knocked out.  The Zoodos must have been through here.

Pisces runs outside where he's surrounded by large pools of water.  He looks around to see if he can find the Dimocian Beast.

Pisces:  C'mon!  Show yourself!

Toxin jumps out from one of the pools of water.  Pisces turns around and gets in a fighting stance.

Toxin:  Argh!  Our hero stands alone.

Pisces:  You've poisoned my friends as well as half the city.  I won't let you get away with it.

Toxin:  But it seems I already have.  Argh!

Toxin attackes Pisces.  They engage in hand to hand combat.  Toxin first takes the upper hand and knocks Pisces away.  Pisces gets back up and uses his weapon.

Pisces:  Argh!  That's it.  Pisces Mega Triton!

Pisces spins his triton around and manages to weaken Toxin and knocks him off his feet.  While he's down, Pisces goes for his special attack.

Pisces:  Pisces Typhoon Blast!

The blue whirlwind spins and hits Toxin, but he absorbs the blow.

Pisces:  What?  No affect again.

Toxin:  Of course not.  You're trying to attack me with my own toxic chemicals.  Thanks for the recharge.  Argh!

Toxin throws a blast from his mouth and sends Pisces through the air.  Pisces lands on the ground.

Toxin:   Ha, ha, ha!  Now it's time for you to suffer the same fate as your friends.  Your suit may protect you from my toxins, but you won't have a choice after I drown you.

Toxin grabs Pisces and tries to throw him into the water and drown him.  While their struggling, the rest of Zodiac Five jumps through the air and fires their lasers at Toxin.

All:  Z-Magnums!

Toxin is knocked away from Pisces.  The others regroup around Pisces who is caught offguard by their appearance.

Pisces:  You guys are alright.

Aries:  Dr. Kesler found the vaccine just in time.  It's just been dispersed into the water supply and here in the plant.

Toxin:  No!  You've ruined everything!

Pisces:  Looks like Dimoc isn't going to have his way again.  Let's do it!  (posing)  Blue Pisces!

Aries:  (posing) Red Aries!

Taurus:  (posing) Green Taurus!

Gemini:  (posing) Yellow Gemini!

Libra:  (posing) Pink Libra!

Pisces:  Celestial Task Force . . .

All:  (posing) Zodiac Five!

They flip through the air.

All:  Z-Sabers!

As they call on their swords, Aries and Taurus come down on Toxin with a slice across his chest.  Gemini and Libra jab him in the stomach and Pisces comes down across Toxin's head.  Toxin is knocked back by the multiple attack.

Pisces:  Now this should work.  Water Elemental Assault!

Pisces performs his special attack and piercing darts of clean water explode all over Toxin's body.

Pisces:  That's more like it.

The others regroup around Pisces.

Aries:  Planetary Immobilizing Attack!

All:  Okay!

Aries:  Mars!

Taurus:  Pan Horus!

Pisces:  Neptune!

Gemini:  Mercury!

Libra:  Venus!

All:  Planetary . . . Immobilizing . . . Attack!

They send their energy spheres flying towards Toxin who is struck by them.  He falls to the ground and explodes.  A beam of light from Levina's staff strikes Toxin and he grows to a monstrous size.

Pisces:  Time to bring in the heavy artillery.

Aries:  Launch Z-Mecha!

The Z-Mecha are launched from Zodiac Central.

Aries:  Alright, guys.  Let's go!

Zodiac Five teleports into their respective mecha.

Aries:  Okay.  Celestial formation!

The mecha get into position for the transformation.  The Grand Zodiac King is formed.

All:  Grand Zodiac King!

Toxin blows blasts of energy from his mouth which hit the Grand Zodiac King.  He then runs in for an attack and grabs the Grand Zodiac King who knocks away Toxins arms and punches him.  Toxin stumbles back and the Grand Zodiac King jumps in the air and comes down with a flying kick.  Toxin is knocked to the ground.

Aries:  Stellar Lance!

The Grand Zodiac King attacks Toxin with the lance and executes some devastating blows.

Aries:  Let's finish him off.  Celestial Blade!

The Celestial Blade materializes.

All:  Grand Zodiac Slash!

Toxin is destroyed by the attack as the Grand Zodiac King stands before his remains.

At Mount Havoc, all watch the image produced by Levina as Toxin is finally destroyed.

Dimoc:  Another planned destroyed.  I won't be able to take much more of this failure.

Balizar:  We will continue to do our best.

Dimoc:  Your best isn't good enough!

Levina:  Take relief in knowing that soon my plan will come to rise and there will be no stopping it.  The result will be quite surprising.

Dimoc:  I'm in no mood for surprises.  I want results.  And the final result is that Zodiac Five will be destroyed with no excuses.  I trust in your ability, but I want something to happen soon.

Levina:  Believe me.  It will.

Levina turns and looks off with a very deceiving expression.

In the city, Kevin and the others are walking down the street.  Everyone around them seems to be fine.

Marcus:  Well, I'm glad the city's safe.  I'm especially glad you all are alright.

Leon:  Yeah.  Thanks to Dr. Kesler we didn't suffer too much under the toxins produced by that Dimocian Beast.

Maya:  He's getting more and more out of control, guys.  What's he gonna come up with next?

Kevin:  Who knows.  We just have to be ready for it.

Paige:  Apparently he'll stop at nothing to get rid of us.  It's going to be a tough fight.

Marcus:  But a fight we're going to win.

Kevin:  Exactly.

They continue you walk off down the street.
