(I Children singing)

(Screaming)

- What's wrong? - A strong wind, I can't steer.

Get the children out of here, quickly!

Out! Hurry, hurry!

Run! Run over there, run!

(Screaming)

Help me! Help me! Help me!

SCIENCE RESEARCH CENTER

(Overlapping chatter)

(Reporter) Professor? Professor?

Dr. Chang, do you think it is an attack from another planet?

- Sir... - What do you think caused the disaster?

Professor, could these catastrophes mean the end of the world is coming?

- I haven't determined anything. - No explanation at all?

- What kind of monsters are they? - Enough questions.

Professor?

- Have you that report? - Here.

- Program this data, and hurry. - It's the reactors again, Lieutenant!

Check then out carefully and give me a report.

- Yes, sir. - Lieutenant Chu, look at this.

The communication system has broken down.

There. They're not working.

It looks serious. The professor's on his way here.

Tell him as soon as he gets in. Ah, here he is.

Professor Chang, our communication system is not functioning properly.

- Our transmissions are being blocked. - Huh?

(Static)

Call in the engineers, they must rewire the transmitters.

And see that those reactors are giving enough voltage.

- Yes, sir. - Wait.

- First, stop the low-frequency system. - Yes, sir.

Lieutenant, I'm going to need printouts on those monsters.

Yes, sir.

Professor...

Just as I thought.

This information has not been transmitted by our own geological stations.

Sir, there's another report.

It says Mount Devil has erupted, 10,000 people dead.

Oh?

Hmm...

It's weird. That volcano has been dead for a thousand years.

Why should it erupt now? Unless there's...

(Alarm beeping)

Oh, sir! Earthquake! Earthquake!

(Overlapping shouting)

- Tu-ming? - Sir? Yes, sir?

- Carry on, continue your duties. Don't panic. - Yes, sir.

Tu-ming, continue contact with our geological stations.

- And trace the cause of that earthquake. - Yes, sir.

- Lieutenant? - Sir.

Direct our radar scanner toward Mount Devil.

Yes, sir.

'Satellite station P17A4, latitude 205.6, longitude 13.8.

'Lock scanner.'

Professor, scanner in position and ready to receive.

Uh. Keep it locked in for continued tracking.

Ten, nine, eight,

'seven, six, five,'

four, three, two, one.

- What? - What is that?

- What's that? - What can it be?

Radiation. It can burn out our scanner.

'Greetings to you, earthlings. I am Princess Dragon Mom.

'I have taken over this planet.

'Now, I own the Earth, and you'll be my slaves all eternity.

'The disasters you experienced are just small examples of our great power.

'Either surrender to me, or I'll destroy all humans.

'I've spoken. It's all the warning you're going to get from me.

'You'll be destroyed.'

Lieutenant Kuang, I need a computer printout on the princess.

It's important we learn all we can of her. Our destiny may depend on that.

Yes, sir.

Where are Rayma and Su-long?

(Woman) My baby! My baby's in the bedroom! Help me!

Don't jump!

- Take her to a hospital. - Rayma, it's for you.

- 'Report to HQ.' - I'll be right there.

- Better get out of here or you'll get hurt. - We will, we will.

Su-long, come on!

Hurry, we're needed at headquarters.

Gentlemen, the situation at this time is so serious,

that it's the worst in human history.

The fate of the entire Earth is in our hands.

Every hour we are getting news that our factories and our refineries

and schools are being attacked with rays of an unknown origin.

They haven't been analyzed so far.

Thousands of people are dead.

The attacks are not coming from outer space, our scientists say,

and certain monsters have been seen that appear to come from before the Ice Age,

long before the history of mankind, they have to be stopped!

(Overlapping chatter)

Here to tell us all about this Princess Dragon Mom

is our scientific expert, Professor Chang.

Mr. Chairman, gentlemen, I must admit I know very little at this time.

The princess is a creature of antiquity, 10 million years at least in age.

And the monsters are mutants of creatures that roamed the Earth before the Ice Age.

It is likely that a super race of humans existed sometime in the past also,

and somehow all of them, humans and creatures,

went into hibernation far underground, where they survived.

They are intelligent, they are smarter than the most up-to-date super computers.

We cannot underestimate them.

In the last few days, they proved they're able to destroy our planet as we know it.

Professor, it's up to you. They've got to be destroyed.

I'm giving you complete command.

(Diabolical laughter)

Come, my creatures. I summon all of you to attend!

(Grunting)

(Laughing)

(Giggling)

Be silent, all of you. I've opened the surface of the Earth, it's time to attack.

(Cheering)

Enough!

I've given the earthlings an ultimatum.

Either they agree to become my slaves, or they'll be destroyed!

It would be futile to fight them with military power.

It would lead to defeat, the end of civilization.

It's apparent that we must find another way, and it's up to us to find that way.

(All) Sir!

- Lieutenant? - Sir.

- I order you to take over here. - Yes, sir.

- Su-long, Tu-ming? - (Both) Sir.

You'll be in charge of the weapons. Do nothing without some order from me.

(Both) Yes, sir.

- Rayma? Come along. - Yes, sir.

(Computers beeping)

Rayma?

This is the result of an entire life's work, the lnframan.

I don't understand.

(Professor) To fight the underground invaders, we need a man with supernatural powers.

To achieve this, a vast network of parts are inserted throughout the living cells.

And that's not all.

Adrenaline will be injected into him,

and then, he will be powered by a miniature nuclear reactor.

Inframan I consider indestructible.

He'll be impervious.

No power exists that's able to destroy what I shall create.

And he will destroy those monsters.

Sir, I wanna be the one who saves the Earth, lnframan.

Rayma, you'll have to go through the sufferings of hell.

Yes, and perhaps die.

Hmm... ls your mind made up without a doubt?

Sir, I'm prepared to die to save mankind. I am ready.

- Any pain? - I'll be alright.

Please go on with it. Do whatever you must.

(Heartbeat pulsating)

She-Demon!

Princess, I am your servant forever.

I wish to speak to the mutants in their chamber.

- Focus them in at once. - Yes, Princess.

(Overlapping shouting)

'And I... I will rip them apart with my fang!'

It shall not be long.

You will attack the instant you get the command from me.

'You have given us power to achieve things never dreamed of!

'I am invincible. Do not wait, Princess. Let us attack this instant!'

She-Demon, I am not going to wait. Summon those two mutants.

Yes, Highness.

(Growling)

- I'm yours to command, Princess. -Mmm.

(Growling)

(Laughs)

What is your desire, Princess? Let me be the first to attack the earthlings.

See that? The satellite station capable of monitoring our every movement.

And there is the earthling who commands it.

You will be seen as soon as you are above ground.

The station must be destroyed.

I've picked you as liquidators because you are the most capable.

You must smash every piece of equipment and eliminate every earthling in the area.

After it's done, when we no longer can be observed,

I will launch our major attack. Now, do as I command!

(Mutants) Yeah!

(Diabolical laughter)

(Screams)

(Gasps)

Calling Science Central. The station is under attack.

A monster... a monster is attacking.

What? You say a monster? Eh? Repeat!

Look! What is it?

- You there, get outside! - Yes, sir.

Look! Let's get him inside. You, you!

(Alarm blaring)

(Telephone ringing)

- Yes? What's happening? - An attack, it's serious.

A huge, tentacled monster has broken in. Our power supp|y's gone.

Gone? You have just one minute to get it repaired.

- Rayma's life is depending on it. - Yes Sir, I'll try!

(Gaspiflg)

Rayma? Rayma?

Success!

Rayma, you are now lnframan.

Oh! Rayma, now you are full of power and energy.

For you, nothing will be an impossibility.

Your senses are intensified, so you can even see and hear through walls.

Professor, you're right. I can see and hear what's happening in the master control room.

It's under attack from some sort of monster.

Su-long is being crushed by the monster.

Rayma, use your power. You can save your friend if you hurry.

- Look! - That's lnframan!

- Inframan! - He's here.

Ha!

(Laughing)

Why am I a prisoner?

I expected to be killed.

Princess, let me kill him, and avenge our brothers!

Silence!

He is a prisoner. I do not want him to die yet.

Tu-ming, you will do as I say.

Or you'll be dropped into a bottomless pit.

What?

But I will do nothing to help you.

See that he's brainwashed. He must act under our control!

Yes, Princess.

No! No, please!

No!

No! No!

No...

Condition his memory. Blend it with a scientific intelligence.

Increase reception and eradicate resistance.

(Groaning)

(Agonized screaming)

Tu-ming, you'll swear now that you belong to the princess!

I swear that I will do whatever she commands.

Professor, give me permission to counterattack.

- Tu-ming is a prisoner there. - No!

- Why not? - They seem to be too strong.

- It's getting too dangerous. - Huh?

Rayma...

There are other weapons I haven't given you as yet.

For success, it's essential you have thunderball fists.

- I can have such a thing? - That's right. Thunderball fists.

(Alarm blaring)

- What's the message? - 'Professor, Tu-ming has returned.'

(Professor) Send him to me.

(Man) Oh, my!

- Tu-ming? Tu-ming, are you alright? - Yes, I see.

- Tell us, what happened? - What's with your eyes?

- We were worried about you. - What happened?

- Did you get hurt? - Where were you?

Tu-ming, what is it? What's happened to you?

Me? Happened to me?

Huh. I got hit on the head.

Now... I recall where I was.

I didn't see any monsters. I got away. I don't know anything.

Let him rest. He's so tired, he's asleep on his feet.

I swear I'm perfectly alright. I'm... I'm OK.

Tu-ming, we know that you were captured. What did they do to you?

Rayma, maybe he'll remember after he rests for a while.

I'll take him to the dispensary.

(Man) Yeah, that's the best thing for him, a good rest.

Sir, there's something wrong with his eyes.

Mm-hmm.

- Sergeant, watch him closely. - Yes, sir.

Ah, Tu-ming! What are you doing here?

Eh?

(Screaming)

(Device beeping)

(Beeping intensifies)

(High-pitched beeping)

(Device whirring)

Tu-ming?

- Oh! What happened? - It was Tu-ming, he's in there.

Tu-ming?

Tu-ming, come with me.

(Laughing)

The earthling has accomplished his mission.

Escort him back to Princess Dragon Mom. I'll finish off this earthling.

Now you die!

(whimpering)

(Groaning)

Ah! He's destroying my monsters.

He's got to be stopped and at once!

Nemesis, I want their science headquarters blown up!

With pleasure! Come on.

- She-Demon! - Yes Princess!

The plan of lnframan needs studying.

- I want to look at it on the scanner. - Yes, Princess.

I'll find his weakness and I shall make use of that.

The scanner is ready, Your Highness.

That looks promising. Give me a close-up of that hand.

Mm! It's as I thought. It would be easy to damage his hand.

(I Singing)

Come on, let's go over there!

Xiao-lu, we'll wait here. Don't go too far.

Are the monsters hiding now that our father finally was able to turn Rayma into lnframan?

I really don't know.

Rayma said if we should see them, he'll come and rescue us.

Someday, Daddy said he'll create an lnfragirl.

And if he does, I'd like to get changed into lnfragirl.

You could be, but you see, it takes a lot of strength and bravery.

Don't you think I could be lnfragirl?

When you're older, I guess.

And you might not like it. It's not easy. You'd have to go through such a great deal.

- I'm willing to do anything to be lnfragirl! - Oh, you are, huh?

- What are you doing? - You're nothing but a coward!

I'm not a coward! I'll get you for that!

Come on, try and catch me!

Fraidy Cat! Fraidy Cat! You're nothing but a coward!

- I'll get you! Wait! - Oh...

Fraidy Cat, don't ever catch me!

- Take it easy. - Don't call me Fraidy Cat again!

I never noticed a cave here before.

Huh... Hey, sis, I'll bet some monsters live inside that cave.

I'm not afraid to go in, but you probably are,

cos you're the one who's a Fraidy Cat.

Oh, yeah? Well, that's what you think.

- Where's Xiao-lu? - In the cave?

He went in?

Xiao-lu, come out of there, it's dangerous.

- Come in. Come in here. - Huh?

This is the transformer room.

When we blow it up, science headquarters will be powerless.

Get the charge ready.

Xiao-lu! Xiao-lu!

I hope he's alright.

You stay here, I'm going to try and find him.

Uh-uh! I wanna go when you look for him.

One of us should keep watch here. I'll be right back.

If I was lnfragirl, I wouldn't have to wait out here.

Xiao-lu?

Xiao-lu.

(Muttering)

Xiao-lu!

Xiao-lu, you've been tied...

(Screaming)

- Tie her up! - Let go of me! Let go!

There'll be nothing left of them when we get finished.

This whole place is going sky-high, thanks to me.

Tu-ming, light the fuse!

Lin-lin!

- What are you doing here? - My brother and sister won't play with me.

Oh, that's too bad. Come on, cheer up. I'll do some tricks.

Uncle Rayma, I wish I'd gone in the cave with them.

Oh?

- What cave? - It's over by that hill.

First, Xiao-lu went it, and then when my sister called him

and he wouldn't answer, she went in after him.

Stay here and don't move. I'll be right back.

Come on, let's watch the fireworks from outside.

(whimpering)

Mei-mei, Xiao-lu...

(Gasps)

Inframan!

Oh, it's lnframan again. I'll rip him apart for this!

(Princess) 'Patience, Nemesis. We'll be able to destroy lnframan soon.

- 'But tonight, bring me Professor Chang.' - Yes, Princess.

Switch off the superchargers.

Rayma, look there.

Now you're ready.

Those thunderball fists will shoot a million volts.

They're capable of destroying everything. At last, you're able to stop them.

Now, I want you to try a test.

You've got to know how strong your thunderball fists are.

There we have a sample of the world's strongest compound.

The ingredients are from South Africa.

Diamond dust was fused to a nuclear reactor for a period of 40 seconds to produce this.

Rayma, let's see you shatter that ball.

- They're just as powerful as you said. -Mmm.

There is one other weapon I created.

These infrablades can spring out from your fists

and instantly slice the monsters to pieces.

You will need all your strength, so go and take a rest.

- You will attack tomorrow. - Yes, sir.

And Rayma, at last I'm confident that you are going to beat them.

Thank you, sir.

(Chuckles)

(Mei-mei) Papa?

Oh, Mei-mei. What a pleasant surprise.

Papa, I can tell you haven't had any rest lately. Your eyes are so red.

I am tired, but I'm unable to rest.

It doesn't matter as long as the Earth is safe for you.

For you and all the other children of the world.

I understand, only you can't remain in your laboratory for the rest of your life.

I trust I won't have to.

Still, I must remain here until all those monsters are gone.

Thousands of people are dying right now.

Our cities are being destroyed.

It's almost too late to act.

But I'm doing everything I can.

- I've got to defeat them. - Papa, you will.

Come here.

Let me tell you about the happiest and proudest moment of my life.

Do you know when that was?

No. How could I? Tell me, I want to hear about it.

Alright, come on. Let's sit down, eh?

- You don't have to run? - Mm-mm.

My happiest day.

What I never forget was 15 years ago.

It was a very sunny day, and the hottest in the entire summer.

It happened very suddenly, no warning at all.

Suddenly, your mother and I had our first little girl baby.

Oh, Papa! I thought you'd tell me something more important than that.

Huh? But there's nothing more important than a family.

And since your mother died, you've managed to take over the house, and I'm proud of that.

You've helped raise your sister and brother. No one cou|d've done as well. OK?

Thanks.

- Now, may I get back to work? - Mm-hmm.

- Don't stay up too late. -Mmm.

(High-pitched reverberation)

(Gasps)

- (Thud) - (Mei-mei gasps)

(Reverberation intensifies)

- (Growling) - (Screaming)

Grab her!

(Mei-mei screaming) Papa! Papa!

- Who are you, the daughter? - (Screaming)

We'll have to use a frontal attack against Mount Demon,

with additional units fighting at the perimeter.

Not one of the monsters must be allowed to break out.

- Rayma, our success is up to you. - Sir, you can depend on me.

Alright, make your final preparations.

- I expect every man to do his utmost. - (All) Yes, sir!

Mei-mei? Mei-mei?

- Mei-mei? - (Princess) 'Professor!

'Your daughter cannot answer. She's right here with us.'

Oh, if you harm her, I'll tear you apart!

'She's alright, for the moment at least.

'Nobody's harmed her. I've had her brought in.'

- (Screaming) - Devil!

'Now, Professor, that's really no way to act.

'You might see your daughter again, if you do as I command.

'Tomorrow, you're to come here, alone.'

(Sighs heavily)

Professor, what can you do about her?

(Sighs) I will have to go there.

Professor, let me go with you. I can rescue your daughter.

He could. Let him go. It's worth trying.

I can't. That fiend said I must be alone.

Rayma...

If anything should happen to me, you're to proceed with the attack.

Come on!

Move along!

(Princess) 'Welcome, Professor Chang.'

Where's my daughter?

Where is she? Where have you hidden her?

(Laughs) The life of your daughter is going to depend entirely on your cooperation.

I want to see her. I want to see her!

Alright. She-Demon, bring the Professor's daughter here.

Yes, Highness.

- Mei-mei! - Papa!

Don't be afraid.

Professor, it's obvious that you love your daughter,

so I'm sure you'll listen very carefully to what I have to say.

- What do you mean? - Watch and see how simple it is.

You'll understand.

- Tu-ming! - Huh... Yes, Princess.

(Laughs)

(Groans)

(Screams)

That was the end of Ming.

Already his body is nothing more than ashes.

Now, do you understand?

Your daughter will also be dropped into the pit of fire,

and her body will also become ashes, unless you do whatever I order.

Papa, you mustn't obey her.

Your daughter will die unless you agree.

In ten seconds, I want an answer.

Now, listen to me. I've already thought about it.

I'll never do what you want.

You've got to stop thinking you can take over the Earth.

You're a fool even to consider that you're able to conquer us.

No matter how potent your weapons are, you'll be defeated,

because lnframan is invincible against them.

Is that right? Ha-ha!

I now possess all the drawings of your lnframan.

I have the original blueprint. And as a result, I can easily beat him.

A foolish dream. I've improved on the plans you have.

I'll stop him! I can easily.

I already know how lnframan gets his power from the sun.

And so I intend to blow out clouds into the atmosphere.

These clouds will block the sun, his power will run down, he'll get weak.

When his power is eliminated, he'll no longer be a threat.

And then the Earth will be all mine!

- You're crazy! It will never be yours! - We'll see about that.

She-Demon, get me lnframan on the radar screen.

You'll soon find out how right I am.

Now, lnframan, now you're doomed!

You can't escape us forever!

Now the clouds will take away |nframan's power.

Ha! The sun is blocked. Now he's helpless.

Come on, let's finish him off!

(Scanner beeping)

So, lnframan still lives.

I'll throw your daughter into that pit now, unless lnframan surrenders to us.

Give the order now, Professor, or your daughter will turn to ashes!

Rayma, you've got to save the Professor. I'll handle this.

Rayma!

Inframan, you're my prisoner. And now I will destroy you.

Yes! You'll melt in 6,000 degrees of heat!

- Rayma! - Rayma!

(Chuckles) He's destroyed.

And now, Professor, I want you to build another one exactly like him.

But... the new lnframan that you build won't be for earthlings.

You will build him for us.

Now, get to work!

You devil, you can kill me,

but I'll never help you with your diabolical plans.

Shut your mouth! I'll make you do it. Put them in ice!

(Mei-mei whimpers)

Put them in there!

(Chuckles) You won't die in there, but you'll be in a deep freeze.

Then I'll bring you back to consciousness again and again,

until you've had enough, until you make another lnframan.

(Screaming)

(Scanner beeping)

(Maniacal laughter)

Inframan, you can't beat us.

You might as well surrender, and be on my side.

Take him prisoner!

(Chuckles)

(Laughs) You're mine.

And I thought you were the invincible man,

yet my freezer gun has almost frozen you solid.

Either you succumb to my demands, or stay locked in ice.

Let me show you how weak you really are.

(Scanner beeping)

Take him away. Take him to the frozen river.

He'll stay there till I need him against the earthlings.

Until then, he'll stay helpless like that!

'Rayma, if you find yourself frozen by liquid ice,

'your missiles are designed to thaw you out.

'You can use five missiles, and the ice will dissolve.'

Huh?

(Maniacal laughter)

_ Huh? ~ Ah!

Professor, hurry! Let's get out of here.

Papa, are the monsters ever gonna come back again?

(Chuckles) As long as we have lnframan, the Earth is going to be safe.
