A Star Is Born (Transcript)

This is the 5th episode of Dragon Squadron: Draconightger.

Over in Rusairus's Castle, Rusairus, Tinker Tonker, Jaroblin, and Vector the Mirror were watching as the machine was operating.

Rusairus: I hope that this next monster you have planned will work in beating the Draconightgers, Tinker Tonker.

Tinker Tonker: Oh it will. And you will not believe what sort of monster this is.

Jaroblin: We won't?

Vector: I can believe the sort of monster it is going to be.

Tinker Tonker: Well, just wait.

The machine soon opened its hatch and the figure stepped out. (The camera only shows the monster's feet in this scene)

Jaroblin: Somehow, I feel like I've seen this guy from somewhere before. But where?

Tinker Tonker: The Draconightgers certainly will be quite surprised when they see him. Now to get him enlarged for the next part of the plan.

Outside, Rusairus and Jaroblin watched as Tinker Tonker used the monster enlarging remote to enlarge the monster. (The monster is still not shown)

Tinker Tonker: There we go.

Jaroblin: Hang on, I think I now know where I've seen this guy before.

Tinker Tonker: This is quite a sneaky scheme, isn't it?

Rusairus: I think it is genius, Tinker Tonker.

Tinker Tonker: We must now make preparations for this monster's fight.

Meanwhile, over at Monty's house, Monty's family was waiting for some guests to arrive.

Mr. Hoofton: Are you excited, Monty?

Monty: I sure am, Dad. It isn't often I get to see them since they live so far away from here.

Mrs. Hoofton: I am sure you will have lots of fun with them during their visit.

Just then, they heard a knock on the door.

Monty: I'll get it. (Walks to the door and opens it to show a female horse who looked a bit older than Monty with a five-year-old girl horse) Maya, Mia! How nice to see you.

Maya: Hey, Monty. How is my favorite little brother doing?

Monty: Maya, I'm your only little brother.

Maya: That's what makes you my favorite! Hehehe.

Monty brought Maya and the younger horse, Mia, Maya's daughter, and Monty's niece, into the house. Monty then noticed that Mia was holding a black action figure with a blue star on its chest, blue eyes in the shape of stars on its face, and some tiny white dots all around its body.

Mia: Starrec is here to save the world from the mighty giant monsters that attack the Earth. He is the greatest alien superhero! (Moves her action figure around to make it look like it was flying in the air)

Monty: I can see that Mia has seen Starrec, Defender of the Galaxy, right?

Maya: Oh yes. It is her favorite television show.

Mia: Starrec is the best superhero in the galaxy!

Monty: Well, what about the Draconightgers?

Mia: The what?

Maya: Yeah. What are Dragon Nightgers?

Monty: Draconightgers, Maya. They are a team of knights who have fought to protect our city.

Mia: Can they grow giant?

Monty: Well, no.

Mia: Then they aren't as interesting as Starrec!

Monty: Come on, Mia. Just because the Draconightgers can't grow giant, that doesn't make them less cool than Starrec.

Mia: Sure it does.

Maya: You know it is hard to argue over Mia's opinion. Right?

Monty: Oh certainly. But, does she mind if I tell you how great the Draconightgers are?

Mia: I'm not interested.

Monty: Aww.

Maya: Who are the Dragon Knight- Whatever you said they were called.

Monty: Draconightgers. They're a team of rangers with knight and dragon powers.

Mia: Don't knights and dragons fight each other?

Monty: You'd think so, but these knights fight for dragons, not against them.

Mia: But dragons are scary and mean.

Monty: I don't think they are. Especially after seeing the Draconightgers. I think the red one is the coolest. Which is funny for me to call cool since he uses fire-based weapons.

Then, Monty saw something in his pocket flashing.

Monty: Uh, excuse me for a moment.

And Monty hurried to his room. When he got there, he pulled out the flashing thing from his pocket. It was his communicator scale flashing. This meant Platia had something to tell him.

Monty: What is going on, Platia?

(Cuts to a split-screen of Platia and Monty talking)

Platia: Monty, bad news! It seems as though Rusairus decided to bring Chimera Knight back!

Monty: Really? Is Rusairus starting to run out of ideas already? She's only had three monsters made so far.

Platia: I dunno. Although this time he is already a giant. So this time the fight might be a bit harder.

Monty: (Sighs) Well, if we were able to defeat him once, we'll be able to do it again.

Platia: I've already sent the others out. Harry was the first to know of course.

Monty: Right since he is hosting you for the time being. I am on my way. (Gets out his sword and ranger key) Draconight Change! (The tiny knights dance in front of him, then they transform him into Draconight Red)

Monty headed out through his window. Then he got an idea.

Monty: Perhaps if Mia sees me running in front of the house, she might get to see just how impressive the Draconightgers are.

Monty went to the front of the house where he saw his family. He wondered how he was going to get their attention. Then, he thought of something.

Monty: There's a monster attacking the city! I better hurry! I sure hope I don't arrive too late!

He said this out loud to make sure his family heard him.

Mr. Hoofton: Hey, there's Draconight Red.

Maya: That is a Draco-whatever Monty called them?

Mia: That still isn't as impressive as Starrec.

Maya: But I think it is worth seeing how they beat whatever sort of monster they are going after. It won't hurt to watch, right?

Mia: I guess not, Mommy.

Maya and Mia left the house to follow after Monty. Monty didn't want to risk having them find out that he wanted them to come along, fearing that they would get suspicious of his secret identity. He soon met up with the rest of the Draconightgers in the city.

Monty: Hey, guys. I'm not late, am I?

Jase: Why would you say that, Monty?

Monty: No reason!

Chimera Knight: Hello, Draconightgers! It is a pleasure to see all of you again! I'll have so much fun beating you again this time!

Harry: I guess Rusairus didn't warn you about the Dracoknight Dragons we gained since your previous defeat!

Maya and Mia had just arrived and they saw the rest of the Draconightgers.

Maya: So that is the whole team.

Mia: What's the big deal? There needs to be five of them. Starrec can defeat monsters without any help.

Monty: Let's get the Dracoknight Dra-

But then, they saw something coming in from the sky.

Kathleen: Hey, what is that?

They looked up. Mia and Maya also saw what it was that was coming down. As the thing got closer, the Draconightgers couldn't believe what it was that was coming.

Amanda: I don't believe it! It's...It's...

The thing then landed, and it turned out to be Starrec.

Monty: Starrec? He's real?

Mia: Mommy! It's Starrec! He's real!

Maya: I cannot believe my eyes!

Starrec stood before Chimera Knight.

Starrec: I've heard that there was trouble going on on Planet Earth, so I have come to put a stop to this wicked monster. (Fires a star beam from his hands at Chimera Knight)

Chimera Knight: (Shields himself, but the shield shatters) What? My shield!

Harry: Hey! Chimera Knight's shield didn't protect him!

Kathleen: Starrec's star beam must be that strong!

Mia: You got this, Starrec!

Chimera Knight: Let's see how you can handle my unicorn horn sword! (Charges with his sword at Starrec)

Starrec: (Grabs the sword from Chimera Knight's hand, then snaps it in half, then punches at Chimera Knight)

Chimera Knight: AAAH!

Amanda: For an alien superhero, Starrec is certainly very powerful. Just like in the TV show.

Chimera Knight: There is no way you can block off my fire attack! (Breathes fire at Starrec)

Starrec: (Uses his star shield to block off the fire attack)

Chimera Knight: Come on! If my shield couldn't stop you, how come yours stopped me?

Starrec: Now for the finisher! Star rod! (A rod then appeared in his hands with each end lighting up, then he swung the rod at Chimera Knight)

Chimera Knight: (Gets hit by the blasts) No! I can't have been beaten for a second time...(Falls down and explodes)

Mia: He's done it! Starrec defeated a monster! And I actually saw it in person!

Maya: I never thought I'd see Starrec in person!

Mia: It is like a dream come true for me! I bet if Uncle Monty was here, he'd think that fight was impressive.

Monty heard what Mia had said, but he was thinking in his head, "No he wouldn't be." Starrec then went back into the sky. Monty then turned to see his sister and niece.

Monty: We usually are the ones to defeat monsters like that.

Mia: Then why didn't you defeat that monster?

Monty: We...uh...

Harry: We didn't get the chance to this time.

Amanda: Just don't think that we let somebody else do our work for us this time!

Mia: My uncle told me that you guys don't grow big as Starrec does.

Jase: No. But we do have giant robot dragons that can combine into a much bigger robot for defeating monsters.

Kathleen: We've done it two times before. In fact, we actually defeated that monster before.

Amanda: Only before, we defeated him at normal size.

Later on, the Draconightgers (All demorphed) were in Harry's attic where Platia was staying for the time being.

Platia: So he just arrived right before you had a chance to summon the Draconight Dragons?

Monty: That is right! And my sister and niece saw the action.

Amanda: That horse lady was your sister?

Monty: Uh huh. That's my sister, Maya. Her daughter is named Mia. She is a huge fan of Starrec.

Kathleen: If Starrec was real this whole time, why have we never seen him before?

Jase: And why did he defeat a monster that was meant for us to defeat?

Platia: I think I should fly around the city and check up on him.

Amanda: Perhaps you could convince him to fight alongside us?

Platia: I'll see if I can do that. Although I am not sure how well he'll handle a real talking dragon.

Monty: Just be sure Mia doesn't see you. She thinks dragons are mean and nasty.

Platia: She does, does she? I guess she never saw a real one then. Once Rusairus is defeated and my village is restored, I'll be sure to prove her wrong.

Platia then headed down the ladder leading into Harry's room, then flew out the window and high into the sky to make sure nobody could see what she actually was from the ground.

Monty: In the meantime, I have a niece to hang out with.

And Monty headed down the ladder and headed out of the house. Platia had flown high in the air to see if she could find Starrec.

Platia: Alright, Starrec. If you are actually a hero like in the TV show, I sure hope that you will be willing to work alongside the Draconightgers. Rusairus won't stand a chance against six heroes.

Then, she saw Starrec down by a road bridge that had broken. In Starrec's hand, was a car.

Platia: What's he doing with that car? (Sees Starrec placing the car on the other side of the broken bridge) Oh. He's just helping to save the car.

Then she saw Starrec heading to the city.

Platia: What is he doing now? There's no presence of a monster, is there? I think I'd sense one if there was.

She flew after Starrec in the city. When Starrec arrived, he stopped right in front of a group of children, who were all fans of his. Even Mia was there with her mom. Platia then arrived on top of a tall building and observed what was going on.

Platia: Hmmm. What could he possibly be doing now?

Then, Starrec was shown to have disappeared. Platia was shocked by that.

Platia: What happened? He's gone!

She then flew to where Starrec disappeared and landed behind a wall where the children were. She peaked from the other side of the wall to see the children with a now human-sized Starrec.

Platia: Oh. He's just normal-sized now.

Then, her scales began to twitch.

Platia: Hold on. I sense a monster around here!

Just then, Monty arrived.

Monty: Platia, I didn't expect to see you here. Did you find out anything about Starrec yet?

Platia: Well, I saw him save a car from a broken bridge. Then I followed him here, and some children are over there Starrec.

Monty: He's here? (Looks to see Starrec is giving the children his autograph) Well would you look at that, he is here.

Platia: But I also sensed a monster around here.

Monty: You have? Maybe this is my chance to prove to Mia how cool the Draconightgers are! (Gets out his key and sword) Draconight Change! (The tiny knights danced, then Monty was transformed into Draconight Red) You alert the others about the monster. I'll see if I can find it myself.

Platia: Maybe you could also ask Starrec if he'd like to join us?

Monty: I'll...I'll see about that.

And Platia flew away. Monty then went over to Starrec and the children.

Monty: Hello, Starrec. I am sure you remember me from before, right?

Mia: Oh. It's that red guy from before that my uncle has talked about.

Monty: Hello, little horse girl. I am Draconight Red of the Draconightgers.

Mia: You are great in all, but Starrec is a much cooler hero than you. I mean no offense to my uncle. He says you are the coolest of the Draconightgers.

Monty: Well, that was nice of him to say. But I am here to talk with Starrec.

Starrec: You wish to speak to me?

Monty: Yes. I was thinking that maybe since we both are heroes who fight against giant monsters, we could work together.

Starrec: Work with you? I don't need to work with anybody!

Monty: Come on! We'd make a good team! Please join us as our sixth member. I bet my niece would think we'd work well together.

Then, the rest of the Draconightgers showed up, all morphed.

Monty: Six heads are better than five, right?

Starrec: If you've watched my television show, you'd know I work alone. Now if you excuse me, I have some autographs to sign.

And he continued to sign autographs for the kids.

Amanda: Just leave him before for now. We have another monster to fight.

Harry: We can't wait for Starrec to decide to join us. We have to beat the new monster without or with him.

Jase: Don't you mean with or without him?

Harry: You say with first, I saw without first.

Kathleen: I may end up talking like that. Without or with my brother's approval.

Jase: (Sighs and facepalms)

And the Draconightgers headed off to search for this monster. Monty was the last to leave, he looked at the children with Starrec, then headed off. The Draconightgers began searching all around the city where Platia had detected the monster. But this monster was nowhere to be found. After some time, Starrec had finished signing autographs and flew back into the sky. It was soon evening, but the Draconightgers had not found the monster.

Monty: (Sighs) Any luck?

Amanda: No. Not me.

Harry: Me, neither. Platia detected a monster around here, and we didn't find any monster.

Jase: Do you think Starrec detected the monster?

Kathleen: He might have found the monster before us and defeated it before we got a chance to.

Monty: I dunno. I haven't heard anybody talk about any monster attack since the fight with Chimera Knight. Most people discuss Starrec coming in to save the day.

Harry: I am pretty sure that Starrec never fights monsters at normal size. The monster is always giant when he fights them, and we haven't seen any giant monsters since Chimera Knight earlier today.

Amanda: Maybe this monster is able to turn himself invisible or something.

Jase: I guess not even Starrec can detect invisible monsters.

Then, they got flashes from their scales.

Platia's Voice: Draconightgers, I don't detect the monster in the city anymore. I think that whatever it was he was doing, he's gone back to Rusauris's hideout.

Harry: I am guessing whatever this monster is, we won't get a chance to fight it until tomorrow.

Monty: I plan to wake up very early tomorrow in the hopes of finding this monster first. Surely I should be able to find it before Starrec does.

The Draconightgers demorphed and then headed home. When Monty got home, he saw Mia drawing a picture of herself with Starrec.

Monty: That is a pretty good picture you've drawn, Mia.

Mia: Even if you find the Draconightgers to be more interesting heroes, Uncle Monty?

Monty: Yeah. I don't suppose you saw the Draconightgers earlier today, have you?

Mia: As a matter of fact, I had. I told Draconight Red that he was your favorite and he was happy to hear that.

Monty: Well...that's nice.

Mia: He and the other Draconightgers even asked Starrec if he'd like to join them as their sixth hero, but he refused.

Monty: I don't know that much about Starrec, but I am guessing that in the TV show, he doesn't accept help from anybody.

Mia: Well, he never said in the show he didn't need any help. But he never did need help from anybody.

Monty: I guess not. Still, I think that if he did accept help, the Draconighters would be the ones to help him. He's not the only hero in the world you know.

When Monty went to bed that night, he set his alarm clock to 6:00. He was determined to get up early enough to find the mysterious monster before Starrec beat him to it. Monty soon got into bed and went to sleep. Meanwhile, over at Rusairus's castle, Starrec, who was at his giant size again, had just landed. He walked over to the castle. Rusairus went over to the window to see him.

Rusairus: I suspect that the children are liking you more than the Draconightgers, are they?

Starrec: Uh huh. They even wanted me to join them.

Rusairus: That would be quite ironic to see you and the Draconighters working together. Of course, it will never happen. Hahahaha.

At 6:00 the next morning, Monty had gotten out of bed, transformed into Draconight Red, and he began his search for the mysterious monster. He was determined not to let Starrec get to the monster before him.

Monty: Alright you monster. Wherever you are, I'm not going to let Starrec get to you before I do.

Monty began to search the city for the monster. He searched for two hours but wasn't able to find the monster.

Monty: Come on! Where is that darn monster?

Just then, he saw Starrec come down from the sky at his giant size.

Monty: Oh no! Not him again! Starrec, you are not going to find this monster before me!

He then saw a group of children gathered in front of Starrec. Mia was among them.

Monty: He's going to ruin everything!

Starrec: Hello, children. Today, I shall give a demonstration of my powers. I'll start by lifting that building without touching it.

He used his telekinesis powers to lift a building into the air. The children were impressed, but Monty was concerned. Then, Starrec dropped the building to the ground. Then, Starrec began to lift a gas tank. This got Monty really concerned!

Monty: He's taking things too far! I wanted to find that mysterious monster before Starrec, but Starrec is the bigger problem right now! I got to call for my Draconight Dragon!

He got his key ready and threw it to summon the Fire Dragon! Monty then got into the cockpit. At this point, Starrec dropped the gas tank, causing it to explode! The Fire Dragon flew towards Starrec.

(Cuts to Fire Dragon's cockpit)

Monty: Stop this, Starrec! What do you think you are doing?

When Starrec saw the Fire Dragon, he fired his star beam at it, causing it to shake.

Monty: AAAH! Wait a minute! This monster...that's you!

Starrec: You finally figured it out, Draconightger!

Just then, the rest of the Draconightgers arrived. They saw Starrec attacking the Fire Dragon!

Jase: Oh no! Starrec was the monster the whole time!

Amanda: Rusairus must have created this fake Starrec to deceive the children!

Kathleen: That is not right! How could she do that?

Harry: I wondered why the fight between him and Chimera Knight yesterday looked too easy! We better get in and help! Jase, summon your Draconight Dragon!

Both Harry and Jase got their keys and had their Draconight Dragons summoned.

(Cuts to Fire Dragon's cockpit)

Monty: Combine, Draconightoh Wind-Earth formation!

The Fire Dragon soon combined with the Wind and Earth Dragons with Wind forming the right arm and Earth the left. Starrec then got out his rod and swung it at Draconightoh. The children couldn't believe that Starrec was fighting against the Draconightgers!

Mia: Starrec! Stop it! That robot is being driven by the Draconightgers! They aren't evil!

Starrec: (Turns to the children) Foolish children! Don't you know that superheroes are just made-up?

Mia: That isn't true! The Draconightgers are real heroes!

From the cockpit, Monty heard what his niece had said.

Monty: Hey, she called us real heroes!

Children: Come on, Draconightgers! You can beat him!

(Cuts to the cockpit)

Monty: Looks like the tables have turned, you faker!

Starrec: Has it now? (Has his rod's ends light up, getting ready to finish them the same way as Chimera Knight) Even if that Chimera Knight I fought yesterday was just a puppet, I am sure my finishing attack will work as well for you!

(Cuts to the cockpit)

Jase: I don't think we'll give you the chance to do that!

Draconightoh: (Uses the Wind Dragon arm to rotate the fan at the end, which cut Starrec's rod in half)

Starrec: (Drops the rod halves) No! My rod!

(Cuts to the cockpit)

Kathleen: That sort of thing never happened in the TV show.

Harry: Dragon Earth Quake!

Draconightoh: (Thrusts the Earth Dragon arm into the ground)

Starrec: (Feels the shaking) Whoa! (Falls to the ground)

(Cuts to the cockpit)

Monty: Great work! Now to end this! Draconight Sword!

Draconightoh: (As the Draconight Sword appears in its hands)

Monty: Wind and Earth...

All: Draco Finish!

Draconightoh: (Swings the sword at Starrec)

Starrec: (Gets hit by the slash) AAAH! This star is finished! (Falls and explodes)

(Cuts to the cockpit)

Monty: We've done it, guys. That fake hero is no more.

Amanda: Do you think the kids will forgive us for this?

Harry: They cheered for us. So I think they have.

And he was right. As the kids cheered for the Draconightgers, phrasing them for saving the day. The Draconightgers went to the ground as they were surrounded by happy children.

Jase: Wow. I never thought the children would like us this much.

Kathleen: Neither had I, even though we just defeated a monster that looked like their favorite fictional superhero.

Mia: Draconight Red! I think I agree with my Uncle Monty that you are the best in the group.

Monty: Aww.

Mia: Can I have your autograph?

Monty: Oh. Well, sure.

Monty signed Mia's paper with the name "Draconight Red."

Mia: (Smile and sheds a happy tear)

Monty: (gives a pat)

When Mia got back to Monty's house, she went up to his bedroom door. Monty had just arrived back before she could have noticed he was gone. When he got back and demorphed, he opened his door.

Monty: Oh good morning, Mia. You look pretty happy.

Mia: I am! It turns out that Starrec was a phony!

Monty: He was?

Mia: Yeah. He was actually a monster made to look like Starrec. But the Draconightgers saved us from him.

Monty: That sounds nice.

Mia: And I even got Draconight Red's autograph. (Hands it to Monty) I want you to have it.

Monty: You want me to have it? (Takes the autograph) Are...are you sure?

Mia: Absolutely. I will say that Starrec is still my favorite fictional superhero, but if I was to choose a real superhero, it would be the Draconightgers. Plus, I think you got me to realize how cool the Draconightgers really are.

Monty: (smiles)

Later, the Draconightgers were in Harry's attic, telling Platia about what happened. Monty told them about Mia giving him the autograph he made to her.

Harry: She actually gave you your own autograph.

Jase: Well, secret identity! So how would she know?

Kathleen: I find that to be adorable, though. Without or with her knowing you're a Draconightger.

Monty: (giggles)

Jase: I am not sure I'll ever get used to you using those words in that order, sis.

Harry: You'll get used to it.

Jase: (rolled eyes)

Amanda: Do you think we'll ever find a sixth hero to join our team?

Platia: It isn't impossible, Amanda. Let's just hope that he is willing to work with us compared to Starrec.

Monty: Platia, we all know the only reason Starrec wasn't willing to fight with us was because he was planning to destroy us.

Platia: Well, I'm sure something like that won't happen again.

Quite a shame that Starrec turned out to be a fake hero. Hopefully, this won't affect the show's ratings. But as long as the Draconightgers are around, the children have real heroes watching over them. A lesson that Monty's niece, Mia had learned is that sometimes, real heroes can just be as interesting as made-up ones.

To be continued...
