Sector 51

S2 Episode 7: Revenge of the Zodiacs

Our episode opens up with an alien spacecraft hovering above the Friends of Earth headquarters, followed by a trio of aliens being deployed from the craft down below: Leo, Aries, and Virgo, who all crash through the roof prompting the FOE goons to point their guns at the trio. Aries activates her rocket pack allowing her to ram the hooded men with her head at high speeds knocking them over like bowling pins while Leo pulls out his electrically-charged battle mace to swat at the remaining FOE goons. meanwhile Senator Pierce unsheathes his sword to face down against Virgo, Senator Pierce asking "what is it you filthy ETs want from us?" Virgo activates her whip construct and says "you killed my mother" Senator Pierce chuckles, asking her "do you know how little that narrows it down? I've killed many ETs, sister. say, are you related to that starchild that's been a thorn in our side by any chance?" as the two clash their weapons. Virgo then tells him "Foolish terran, I am no half-breed! I am a pure blooded Annunaki just like my parents!" as she slams him into a wall. Virgo then wraps her whip constuct around Senator Pierce's neck, Virgo introducing herself saying "I am Vira, daughter of Eterius, but you can call me Virgo. and these are my cohorts Leo and Aries" Pierce asks her "then why don't kill me right here and now? prove you're a dangerous alien criminal just like your old man" Virgo then tells him "As tempting as that sounds, I won't. because there's a question I need to ask you. where is my father?" Pierce tells her "his ship, the Nibiru, crash-landed in the mountains outside Alien town. that's all I know!" Virgo de-activates her whip construct, telling him "Thank you, that is all I needed to hear. come on you two, we're done hear" the trio leave the building stepping over the battered and bruised members of the Friends of Earth. we then cut to Leo, Aries, and Virgo arriving at the wreckage of the Nibiru where they bump into Cancer and Pisces, with Pisces saying "hey look Cancer, the reinforcements have finally arrived" with Cancer saying "well it's about time, you two came a little to late to help Taurus, he's dead" Leo growls, saying "sector 51 must have got him" as he cracks his knuckles with Aries saying "easy there Leo" Virgo then asks the two Zodiacs "where's my father?" Pisces then says "you must be our boss Saggitarius's other kid, sorry but you came here too late. he's currently off planet, in hiding from Sector 51" Virgo then asks "what do you mean by other kid? I'm an only child!" Cancer tells her "not anymore, see your father thought you were dead so he made a second daughter, a half-breed born to a human mother, to replace you" Virgo gets angry and says "He did what?" before we cut to Lena at the amusement park with her little bro Tyrone who's super hyped up after getting off the rollercoaster asking his big sis "can we please ride it again big sis? please?" Lena then says "I think Alex has had enough rides for one day" as she points to poor Alex throwing up in the trash can. we then see Darnell and Maria show up with cotton candy for the Sullivan siblings, Lena and her little brother sitting on a bench to enjoy their sweet treats. Darnell said he also bought one for Alex, however Lena tells her stepdad that Alex probably isn't in the mood for cotton candy pointing to Alex still throwing up in the trash can. Poochie then shows up to suck the cotton candy into his black hole mouth, Tyrone running up to hug the alien dog only for Poochie to start growling upon seeing crowds of screaming people. she then turns her head to see Cancer, Pisces, Leo, and Ares tearing the place up saying "It seems that the Zodiacs are back, and with new recruits no less" as she activates her fist constructs. Alex then says "I'll catch up later!" as he's still busy throwing up in the trash can. Tyrone exclaiming "go sis go!" while Maria grabs his hand as the Sullivan family try to evacuate with the rest of the park patrons. Lena then smacks both Cancer and Pisces around with her fist constructs only for Aries to charge in to ram Lena who activates her force field which shatters causing Lena to get knocked into a nearby hot dog stand. Lena then gets up to see Leo swing his electric mace at her which she dodges by teleporting. Poochie shows up to back up Lena, using his black hole mouth to pull Leo, Aries, Cancer, and Pisces away from Lena who thanks Poochie for the save. however Poochie is kicked away by the fifth Zodiac: Virgo. Lena rushes to Poochie's aid and looks at Virgo with shock, Lena looking into her eyes and having flashbacks to Eterius. Lena's eyes widen, saying "your'e an Annunaki!" Virgo then says "Indeed I am. my Zodiac name is Virgo, but my birth name is Vira, firstborn daughter of Eterius. nice to finally meet you, sister" Lena's eyes widen, exclaiming "what?" before we cut to Sector 51 HQ where Delta and Epsilon are in the communication chamber being informed by Alpha that there's been a recent attack on the Friends of Earth's base of operations, saying that according to the council of planets they suspect the attack was done by the Zodiacs. Epsilon rolls his eyes, saying "And why is this any of our concern? if they take each other out it'd be a win-win situation for us, two less enemy factions for us to worry about" Delta butts heads with Epsilon telling him "with all due respect Commander, I disagree. something as huge as this warrants our investigation" Alpha agrees, telling him "Delta is right, this could be our chance to finally discovering Eterius's location" before we cut back to Lena's confrontation with Virgo were Lena is aghast at the revelation that Virgo is her older half-sister, having flashbacks to her fight with Eterius aboard the Nibiru during "Family secrets, part 2" where she remembers him mentioning that humans killed his wife Innana and firstborn daughter Vira. Lena then says "You're Vira? but Eterius said you were dead!" Vira smiles, saying "I guess you already met our father, I honestly have no idea why he would stoop so low as to have a child with a human, disgusting. but allow me to correct his mistake" Virgo then activates a pair of angel wing constructs that sprout from her back allowing her to fly, Lena exclaiming "cool angel wings, when do I get those?" Virgo then exclaims "when you DIE!" as she activates her whip construct to lash at Lena who dodges the attack with her teleportation, Lena saying "two can play at that game" as she activates her sword construct. Virgo chuckles, saying "that's cute, but as a dirty half-breed your power pales in comparison to that of a pure-blooded Annunaki like me" Lena then uses her energy sword to parry yet another attack from Virgo's energy whip. Lena then teleports on top of a nearby rollercoaster to get to Virgo's level activating her twin swords, Virgo then says "nowhere to run baby sister!" as she lands atop the coaster track to fight Lena, repeatedly attacking with her energy whip which Lena deflects using both of her twin energy swords, Lena telling her "how about we stop all the fighting and hug it out sister-to-sister" as she charges at Virgo who grabs Lena by the neck lifting into the air and says "sorry, but I don't listen to bastards" dropping her onto the ground while Virgo de-activates her energy wings and safely lands on her feet, Virgo looking down on the unconscious Lena calling her "pathetic" meanwhile Alex is finished throwing up in the trashcan and notices Poochie trying to get his attention, Alex noticing Lena is hurt prompting him and Poochie to rush to Lena's aid with Alex helping her back on her feet. Lena tells Alex to run as she is surrounded by the zodiacs. Alex understands the severity of the situation and runs with Poochie. we then cut to Delta, Epsilon, and the Sector 51 troops storming the now-wrecked Friends of Earth base, Senator Pierce getting up on his feet saying "Sector 51, what do you alien sympathizers want?" Epsilon tells him "Trust me, we're no sympathizers of the aliens that we're looking for" as he points one of his tonfa-guns at Pierce's head as he unsheathes his sword. however Delta diffuses the tension, telling Pierce that he didn't come here for a fight he came to ask if he knows what the zodiacs wanted from them. Pierce chuckles, saying "they were lead by an alien who looked a lot like that kid of yours but she had pink hair, claimed she was the daughter of Eterius, called herself Virgo. she said she was looking for her father" Delta then tells him "that's all I needed to know, we'll be out of your hair now" Epsilon then says "that can't be right, Eterius's wife and firstborn child died 18 years ago, and by your hands no less" Pierce confesses, telling them "you don't know the full story. while I did kill his wife, the child slipped through my grasp" we then cut to a flashback scene where we see the Friends of Earth escorting Innana holding baby Vira into their base where they bring her to a laser guillotine ready to execute her along with a bunch of other alien prisoners who are waiting in line for their demise, Innana asking why they would harm her and her child. Pierce tells her "all aliens are guilty just by being on this planet, you're trespassers on our soil causing with all the destruction your kind cause" Innana says "I didn't do anything wrong! me and my husband were just mere refugees from a destroyed planet! have some sympathy!" Innana then baby Vira to two other alien prisoners (Leo and Aries) who were planning on helping her escape, begging for them to keep her child safe before she is grabbed from behind and taken to the guillotine, Leo and Aries escaping with the crying infant to their ship as they blast off into space while Innana sheds a tear praying for her child's safety before being executed. we cut back to the present where Epsilon sheds a tear, saying "that's such a sad story!" Delta then leaves with Epsilon saying "hey wait up!" the two hop in the armored truck, with Epsilon asking Delta why he gets to hop in the driver's seat this time. Delta tells him that they're headed to Lena's location, fearing that Virgo and the Zodiacs might have already gotten after her. once they arrive at the amusement park they come across Alex and Poochie, Alex informing them that Lena was attacked by the zodiacs who now have new recruits. the Sullivan family also arrive on the scene, Maria telling Delta "I'm so grateful you came, I don't think Lena can take on all those bad aliens by herself" Delta then says "that's why I'm here as he tightens his necktie and pulls out his twin laser pistols while Epsilon and the troops hop out of the sector 51 vehicles to hold the line, pointing their guns at the Zodiacs with Virgo ordering Leo, Ares, Cancer, and Pisces to deal with them while she deals with the starchild. Epsilon pulls out his gatling gun-tonfas to open fire on the Zodiacs, Leo blocking the fire with his electric mace before slamming it into the ground electrifying the Sector 51 soldiers including Epsilon only for Delta to come to his rescue roundhouse kicking Leo in the face only for Cancer and Pisces to lunge at him with Delta shooting the two in the chest with his laser pistols knocking them out cold. Ares activates her rocket back to charge at Delta at high speeds only for Delta to dodge and shoot Ares in the rocket pack causing her to spin out of control before helping Lena back on her feet, Lena hugging Delta happy to see him come to her rescue. Virgo then tells Delta "back off Terran, my business is with the starchild!" Delta stares down Virgo, telling her "If you wanna go through her then you'll have to go through me, Vira" pointing his twin pistols at the Annunaki teenager. Virgo says "gladly" and activates her whip construct to lash Delta knocking him onto the ground, Lena asking her "why do you wanna fight me? what did I ever do to you?" Virgo then tells her "simple: I hate humans because they killed my mother, and you're half-human which is why I can't stand the sight of you. just look at those hideous round ears of yours, us Annunaki take pride in our pointed ears" Lena then shouts "Shut up!" as she activates her fist constructs. Virgo then activates an arm cannon construct to blast Lena knocking her on her rear, Lena using her fist constructs to help herself back on her feet while saying "you use that construct better than I can, last time I tried to use it I lost control and nearly hurt my friends" Virgo scoffs at Lena's inexperience, telling her "you clearly haven't mastered every power your wield, but I wouldn't expect less from a dirty half-breed!" before switching to a pair of claw constructs to combat Lena's fist constructs, the two Annunaki sisters trading blows with each other until they lock energy fists while Delta, Epsilon, Alex, and the Sullivan family all watch, Tyrone exclaiming "kick her butt big sis! I know you can!" Lena then headbutts Virgo who catches herself by activating her energy wings stopping her fall. Virgo then flies into the air, exclaiming "can't catch me while I'm up here, baby sister!" while the Zodiacs Leo, Aries, Cancer, and Pisces all cheer on Virgo. Lena closes her eyes and says "I may not be able to fly, but I can clip your wings" activating her energy shurikens which she throws at Virgo slicing her wing constructs off causing her to fall only to be caught by Leo and Aries while Cancer and Pisces sneak off. Virgo tells her "We'll continue this fight later, sister. once you've become stronger of course" as she along with Leo and Aries walk away leaving Lena with a feeling of uncertainty. we then cut back to Sector 51 HQ where Lena is busy washing her face in the washroom only for her to see the face of Eterius in the mirror causing her to freak out, Lena shouting "get out of your head!" Eterius through the reflection tells her "do not be alarmed my child, I just came here to talk. I heard from my underlings that Vira, my firstborn, survived. is that true?" Lena tells him "yeah she's very much alive, and she almost kicked my butt. now tell me where you're hiding!" Eterius chuckles, telling her "sorry dear but that's classified information" before disappearing from the mirror, Lena hearing a knocking from the door. Lena answers the door which turns out to be Delta who asks her if she's alright, and Lena says "I'm fine, I've just had a rough day after getting my butt kicked by the half-sister I just met so just give me some space" as she storms to go into her room all broody much to the concern of Delta, Epsilon, and the LGMs ending our episode on a somber note.
