[Narrator] Zoids!

Equipped with a metal body,

animal instincts, and a fighting spirit,

these fierce creatures roam the world

and rule it with their iron might!

But when a human joins forces with a Zoid,

they form an unmatchable bond and unlock

a hidden power that knows no limits!

They call it...

Wild Blast!

♪ Zoids Wild! ♪

♪Zoids Wild! ♪

So, team? You stoked to be back on the road, too?

[agreeing nods]

Yeah, me too!

[Maverick] See ya!

[Battalia] It isn't that hard!

You better be paying attention

'cuz I'm getting tired of playing art teacher.

[Arashi] Nice!

'kay, I get it.

A little bit of this, a little bit of that, and then...

Bingo! Now check this out!

[proud laugh]

If you were aiming for ugly, then congrats.

[shocked grunt]

I'll show you!

[Arashi] This one's gonna pop right outta the page! Just wait!

[triumphant chuckle]

Hope you're sitting down!

That's even worse.

You kidding me?

This belongs in a gallery!

I'll give you points for trying your hardest.

But I've seen rocks with more talent.

Alright. Why don't we take a deep breath?

I know you didn't really mean that.

You want me to stop telling it like it is, huh?

Haha... Maybe...

Are you serious?

I thought scientists were supposed to be all about

shedding light on the truth!

Okay then,

from now on how about we hide everything from each other?

No, honesty's the best policy!

I won't keep any secrets from you, promise.

[Analog] Well, starting today...

[intrigued grunt]

Interesting...

I had no idea you had a Zoid key, ya mind if I have it?

[nervous yell]

I need it for my research. Sorry...

Hmph.

Fine... Can I see your drawings then?

Sure. Just know they're not finished yet.

Whoa!

Ugh, really?

It's Tanks. Isn't he the cutest?

I have to admit, Liger is too.

Don't worry, I didn't forget about Needle!

What do you think of this one, Arashi?

[amused laugh]

Check it, I'm adorable.

And last but not least, here's one for Battalia.

Oh wow! You captured my spirit Analog, thank you!

I don't know what to say, you shouldn't have...

You really, really shouldn't have.

I'll make sure that message gets through your thick skull!

Battalia just doesn't get art.

[Analog] We don't share the same taste, that's all.

You're right.

[Arashi] I mean, I gotta hand it to her.

She did make a wicked logo.

Well? Didn't she?

Every team needs a designer and we scored the best of the best.

[depressed exhale]

[Greta] The world is wide and the roads are long.

When I get bored I sing this song!

One parcel, two parcel, three parcel, four.

With every delivery I earn more!

[Greta] Five letter, six letter, seven letter, eight.

Hi, strangers! Remember me?

I have some mail for you!

[wondering grunts]

This literally just came in.

Thanks, Greta.

Oh, I'm just doing my job!

Great doing business!

I'll be working in the area for the next little while

so if you have a reply just gimme a shout!

Who's it from?

Some people back in my hometown.

Come on!

You're saying I'm the one who's bad at drawing?

[Battalia] They have a good excuse. My kids made these.

Hold on a second are you a mother?

What's that?

It's okay if you are, of course.

[nervous chuckle]

Well I'm not, I'm more like their big sis.

They don't have anybody else.

Whaddaya mean?

They're orphans...

[Battalia] I take care of them the best I can.

We're basically one big happy family.

I want to open up my own Zoid repair shop

so that we have a place to play all day long.

Wow. That's awesome.

I'm guessing this is the dream you keep hinting about, huh?

Mhmm.

They're the reason I'm on this quest

to track down Ancient Treasure Z.

I can sell it and make this happen.

I'll do anything. Whatever it takes to make this a reality.

That's such a wicked idea!

You can count on me. I'm in it for the long haul!

Huh?

I'm totally gonna find it!

And when I do I'm gonna give you every single piece of it!

Really, you're not gonna keep even a little bit?

Nah! I don't need it. I just wanna make my friends happy!

[Analog] Keep in mind,

there's no guarantee we'll actually find-

Are you kidding me, I'm a master detective, remember?

Plus, I got you!

I don't understand where he gets his confidence...

[excited chuckle]

These kids are gonna be so super stoked!

Yeah, I'm sure they will be.

C'mon! Say it like you mean it!

Almost there!

[Battalia] Welcome to Lumaton!

[Arashi] Fancy!

I bet everybody here wears clean underwear!

There's actually quite a few travelers

who come through this town.

If we're lucky we might even get new info on Ancient Treasure Z.

Ya think so? Well, then what are we waiting for?

[Analog] Just a minute!

I know this is exciting but

we shouldn't be so quick to let our guard down.

Rumor has it the Dark Metal Empire controls this area.

[Arashi] Thanks for the heads up.

I suggest we do a bit of surveillance

before we go further.

[Battalia] Don't worry, it's fine.

You can't believe everything you hear, Analog.

Besides we could be on the edge of a major breakthrough,

don't you want to find out?

I guess.

There! Now, stop dragging your feet. Arashi, you in?

[Arashi] Uh-huh.

That's weird...

[pained groan]

[pained groan]

Hey! What's happening to you?

I feel something...

I think there's a monster inside of me!

[alarmed yell]

Spit it out!

It's gonna roar!

[rumbling]

Huh?

Don't tell me.

I'm sorry. I can't go on!

[pained groan]

So hungry...

I can feel my tummy yelling at me.

Should've seen this coming.

I guess we're camping here tonight.

Looks like we don't have a choice...

That hit the spot. There's nothing like chili.

I gotta sleep this off but

tomorrow morning we're gonna hit the ground running!

[Arashi] Check out the view!

There must be billions of stars.

Only one way to find out.

I keep trying to count them,

but I always fall asleep before I'm done.

[chuckle]

I don't think you could finish, even if you had all night.

[amused giggle]

You're right about that.

[humming]

[humming]

Did you just make that up?

I hum this song for the kids when they go to bed.

[Battalia] It's how my mom used to get me to sleep

when I was a little girl.

That's sweet.

[humming]

[humming]

[snoring]

[Arashi] Battalia?

[horrified gasp]

[Battalia] You're awake?

[Arashi] What are you up to?

Uh...

Uh...

Nothing! Just chillin'.

Oh, and doing some maintenance too!

We've had some rough battles recently.

Just thought I'd take a look under the hood.

At night?

[worried gasp]

Wait... I see! You're hiding something!

Aw yeah, a surprise!

[shocked gasp]

You're working in secret 'cuz you wanted this to be a present.

Thanks, Battalia. That's awesome.

No, listen to me.

This is suspicious. It doesn't check out!

Fist bump me!

[horrified yell]

[chuckle]

This guy's been due for a tune-up for a while now.

You didn't expect this, did ya?

[surprised gasp]

[phone buzzing]

You hear that?

I think it's just a cicada!

[phone buzzing]

[alarmed gasp]

[Numb-Lock] One-two, one-two. Numb-Lock here.

[Numb-Lock] When are you

droppin' in with Liger, Battalia?

We still on?

[Numb-Lock] No response?

Look, I don't deal well with radio silence. Say something.

Impossible... That's one of the Four Dark Warriors!

And you're working for him.

This whole time, you've been undercover!

Is that true?

[Arashi] You would never let us down. Right, Battalia?

I'm listening.

[Numb-Lock] Finally.

[Numb-Lock] This whole mission is starting to drag on.

Do you want this gig or not?

Yes.

[Numb-Lock] Then time to put the pedal to the metal.

[Battalia] Yes, sir. I'm working on it as we speak.

[pleased chuckle]

[Battalia] I just need a bit more time.

I'll deliver the package shortly. Promise.

[Numb-Lock] Music to my ears.

[evil snicker]

[Battalia] I'll see you soon.

[Numb-Lock] Remember: I want Liger in one piece.

It's rider... not so much.

[Battalia] We can stop pretending now.

I'm a bounty hunter for the Dark Metal Empire.

So you've been trying to capture me and Liger since day one?

No, not quite.

[Battalia] When we first met, you were flying under the radar.

You hadn't made my list yet.

[Battalia] But eventually I got an update from Numb-Lock.

That's when he asked me to take on this mission.

Wait. This doesn't check out.

You got caught with us at Zagron Hill.

We were locked in a cell together and everything.

That was part of my plan.

Once I got you in custody,

all I had to do was make a call and take the credit for myself.

Had it all lined up.

Really?

[Battalia] Then everything went haywire when you beat Malware.

You even managed to escape Gigaboss. I didn't expect that.

So ever since I've been biding my time,

looking out for my next opportunity.

But, why?

[Battalia] That's none of your business. Got it?

Get ready Arashi! I'm taking you in right now!

Dodge it, Liger!

[Arashi] Get 'em!

You're wasting your time. So just give up, okay!

[Battalia] Grab 'em Needle!

Battalia! Don't do this!

How come you're following orders from the Dark Metal Empire?

Look, I don't have to answer your questions!

[Battalia] It doesn't matter. I don't have a choice.

[terrified yells]

Somebody, help!

Get out of here! I've got this.

[fleeing cries]

[evil laugh]

[evil snicker]

[Numb-Lock] One-two, one-two.

You know how to walk to the beat of your own drum.

Nice work...

But if you were part of a band

I bet you could crash down even harder.

Do you wanna jam with us? Or get steamrolled?

[Battalia] I made a deal with Numb-Lock.

If I turn over a hundred of the Empire's most wanted,

I'll get all the money I need for my Zoid repair shop.

[attacking yell]

I've caught ninety-nine so far. Only one left!

You're last on my list. I just have to bring you in.

Then I'm done. I can finally make my dream come true!

Let's hit 'em with our Sting Spear!

[worried gasp]

I don't get it!

I explained everything to you!

But it doesn't add up.

None of this makes sense to me.

The things you wanna do are amazing

and would make so many people happy.

But this... This isn't right.

You're better than this, Battalia.

[Arashi] Think about it.

What would the kids say if they knew?

[Arashi] It's not too late.

Give up bounty hunting for the bad guys!

There's still time to start over.

I can't... It isn't... It isn't that simple...

You tricked us.

You were planning on selling us out to the Empire

right from the beginning, weren't you?

Traitor!

Hey, chin up. Not everybody's gonna be a fan. Got that?

I understand. So who's next on the list?

Haha, that's what I like to hear.

You're on a roll, so don't let anything stop you from rockin'!

If you drop your sticks, you gotta pick 'em right back up.

[Numb-Lock] Remember, I can lock you up like the rest of them.

I know they'd be upset.

I totally get it, it's dirty money. But... I can't.

[aggressive yell]

I don't have a choice.

[battle cry]

[angry growl]

That's not true! There's always another way!

[Arashi] Liger! Fire up!

Looks like we've got a point to drive home.

The choice is yours, Battalia!

[powered-up yell]

Unleash Wild Blast!

[Arashi] Go for it!

King Claw!

[pained grunt]

Still standing. I'm not losing.

[Battalia] I'm not doing this for me.

All of it's for the kids.

They're counting on me. Do you get it?

[Battalia] I just want them to be happy.

[happy laughing]

Ask yourself this:

What if they find out and decide to never forgive you?

[shocked gasp]

Enough. You're keeping Numb-Lock waiting. Take me.

[shocked gasp]

[Arashi] I said I'd help you make your dreams come true.

A promise is a promise, so turn me in.

Are you kidding, this is a terrible idea!

Friends are there for each other, no matter what!

Your heart's in the right place.

[Arashi] You've sacrificed for these kids.

If you're willing to put it all on the line for them,

then I am too.

[Arashi] You've got their back, I've got your back,

and Liger's got mine.

Well? Isn't that right?

[happy chuckle]

[Analog] Hey, Arashi.

You really going through with this?

Yeah! It's my chance to wipe the floor with another Dark Warrior.

He won't see it coming.

[big yawn]

I'll save it for the morning.

I am crashing hard all of a sudden.

[yawn]

Same. I guess our sleep cycles are synchronized.

Hey, wait a sec...

Uh... How come you aren't as exhausted as we are?

Don't know.

It might have something to do with the soup you ate.

What does that mean?

[disbelieving yells]

You need to relax. I just put in some turkey.

That's why I'm tired? Because turkey?

You seriously didn't know?

Turkey is famous for making-

How could you? My body doesn't react well to tryptophan!

Mine doesn't react well to betrayal!

[sobbing]

You're going to be just fine so get some shut-eye already!

Is that a promise? 'cuz...

[snoring]

It's time. We are gonna finish what we started.

Hey, Needle...

[Battalia] Tell me the truth. Do you think I'm a bad rider?

I try my best. That's all I can do.

[snoring]

[Battalia] Thanks, guys.

Now, it's time to hit the road!

[Numb-Lock] One-two, one-two. Numb-Lock here.

Hello.

That so? Don't skip a beat. Bring 'em over and quickly!

Aw yeah... This mission's finally starting to wrap up.

[Numb-Lock] I can feel it coming in the air tonight.

It's like I've been carrying a steady thump, thump

for as long as I can remember.

Here comes the grand finale.

[evil laugh]
