**In the past**

More than 3000 years ago during stellar centuries, after the explosion of the supernova heat wave, a different but special galaxy was formed compared to those in real life... because it was made up of a mixture of stars, nebulae and northern lights, creating amazing space landscapes similar to those on planet Earth. There is a group of 50 eccentric but interesting planets known as the **Star System**, which share many similarities with those of the Solar System in terms of chemical compounds such as hydrogen, helium, neon, carbon, oxygen, etc., but the difference is that most of those planets are made up of fluids, gas and, obviously, stars of all kinds. Which means that they do not have solid or rocky surfaces.

One of the best known planets in the place is the home planet whose inhabitants are dogs, called **K9-500**. That's right, the home planet of all dog breeds we know of and some we don't know about. But here, we're going to tell you the story by starting with this cute hound couple: **Tori**, head of a dog hospital, and **General Randolph**, military leader of the galactic forces. They had known each other since high school when they were 18 years old. Even if admitting their feelings was a bit difficult due to shyness, they managed to confess their love for each other and became a beautiful couple. Both shared some tastes and virtues, especially their great sense of leadership demonstrated by their professional work. They were strong, brave, responsible, kind, caring, and always loyal to each other.

Three months later, Tori had to quit her position as head of the hospital as she was preparing to become a mother. She felt so happy that she told her best friends about that news and they happily congratulated her. Randolph bought several toys and puppy food before the time came. The next day, the ambulance took Tori to the same hospital where she used to work to birth her baby while two nurses bring her stretcher to take her to the birth room.

An hour later, Randolph visited the hospital to see his wife's new puppy. Their eyes filled with tears of happiness, proud of their new dear son. Tori decided to give him a special name for him, **Ruffs**, the typical dog barking. The puppy could barely open his eyes to see his parents for the first time, and Randolph gave him a warm hug to welcome him into the world. Tori spent a week in the hospital and came home with Ruffs snuggled in her arms. Taking care of him and educating him was not very easy for her or for Randolph, but it was as worth it as it paid off.

On his fifth birthday, Ruffs enters primary school for dogs for the first time. With effort and hard work, in addition to his aversion to distractions, he did great in his studies. For that reason, the bullies became totally jealous that many times they even tried to intimidate him so that he would feel ashamed of his achievements, but none of them realized how brave he was. Someone capable of defending both others and himself. Whenever he felt threatened, he would bark loudly to scare away those toxic canines and even bite them. Also, he met a group of four puppies that were almost the same age as him: Andrew, a smart and calm German shepherd; Harvey, a French bulldog who loves rapping; Ivor, a pug who is fearless, energetic and easily angered when he makes a mistake; and Melody, a grayish-purple poodle who had a gift for singing, but was blind from birth and her parents were very overprotective of her because of it. The four of them became best friends with Ruffs. Enjoying wonderful moments of friendship together, from fooling around to doing any kind of activities.

Two weeks later, once Ruffs and his parents had finished eating their breakfast, General Randolph was preparing to embark on new adventures with the galactic forces.

* **Tori**: See you someday, honey. Please take care. (*Kisses Randolph*)
* **General Randolph**: I will, dearly beloved Tori. (*Kisses her*) See you later, my little Ruffs.
* **Ruffs**: Bye, daddy. (*Hugs him*) Ruff, ruff!
* **General Randolph**: No matter what happens, I vow with all my heart to never give up what I have faith in and return home a steadfast, determined and loyal colonel. You'll take very good care of him, won't you?
* **Tori**: Oh, sure. Being a responsible mother, I will do my best to help him learn more about life and support him when necessary.
* **Ruffs**: (*Hugs his parents*) Ruff, ruff! I love you so much, mommy and daddy.

When Randolph left for space, Tori and Ruffs had a great time together, helping each other with domestic tasks, doing art, learning all about planet Earth before they could travel there one day, defending those who are threatened by toxic people, criminals, thieves and psychopaths, among other things. They had several happy moments together for months, until one day, they both watched the news on TV reporting some problems that were happening in their country, but the bad news which impacted them the most... was about the death of General Randolph, who was killed along with his soldiers by the attack of a black energy bomb that it does not know where it came from. Tori was totally shocked and heartbroken to lose her husband, leaving her speechless. She hugs Ruffs as the two begin to sob.

At nightfall, Tori's best friends went to her house to offer condolences to her and her son, praying that Randolph and his soldiers rest in peace in a better place, placing white flowers in the photo frames. They all showed their admiration for how brave they are, but at the same time, sad that they left the world forever. Despite such situations, they must have been strong and never give up despite everything. Also, some paid tribute to those certain warriors either through speeches, drawings or videos. Ruffs hugs her mother to comfort her and yawns as it's too late to stay awake.

* **Tori**: (*Hugs Ruffs and cuddles him in her arms*) Thank you so much for your compassion, my little Ruffs. I really did not expect such shocking news. Losing my husband was the most heartbreaking moment of my life. I only hope he and his soldiers rest in peace in a better place than our planet. But they will never be forgotten as long as we will remember them forever in our hearts. As for you, sweetie, I promise to be more responsible than before and give all the support you need to build a better future, to make your dream come true about what you want to be when you grow up. I love you very much, my greatest treasure. (*Gives him a small kiss on his cheek*)

Since then, she became a more responsible, hard-working and loving mother than she always was. Helping her son to learn more to improve his studies in school. When Ruffs turned thirteen, he told her that he began to have the same taste as General Randolph for galactic military service and a great sense of leadership as his special gift, something which Tori disliked since that brought her very bad memories since her husband passed away. But she didn't want his life to be complicated either, just because hers was. She would never do anything impossible for her son to fight to fulfill his dream. In fact, she quite enjoyed watching him grow up, playing the best canine colonel of all.

One day, Tori enrolled him in a galactic forces military service academy, the same place where Randolph learned to be the boss of his team as a teenager. It was so much hard work for Ruffs, but he decided to keep his determination and without getting tired until he achieved it. Within ten months, he passed the final exam and was officially titled as a true colonel, whose strategies for combat surpassed his own master's. Tori happily congratulated his son proudly, admiring his incredible ability to overcome any obstacle got in his way. As a reward, she took him to a fancy restaurant for spaghetti and dog food, her favorite food. Ruffs highly valued the importance of family and loved his mother with all his heart that he was afraid of losing her if something bad happened to her.

On December 31, as everyone was getting ready to celebrate the New Year, Ruffs went to the hospital because he was suffering from an infection in his left eye. As one of the eye doctors was about to give him the medicine prescription, a loud explosion was heard. And it was a fire meteor shower destroying everything around as people panicked looking for a safe haven. A group of firefighters who are Dalmatian dogs tried to put out the fires in the city, but suddenly, a giant fire meteor was heading towards them. Showing his willpower, Ruffs decided to go protect them by using his combat moves to get over that phenomenon. He really did it, but as a result, some meteor bits cracked his left eye, spilling a little blood. Fortunately, that didn't affect his brain at all. The same oculist had to examine him again, remembering what happened to him the same as with one of General Randolph's soldiers, so he gave him a black patch with a white cross.

After thanking him for the checkup, Ruffs went to a room on the top floor to see Tori whose illness prevented her from continuing to support him in building a better future in his new job as a military colonel. The nurses did their best for her to recover, but there was no appropiate remedy. Not to mention that disease was, in fact,... incurable. Worse than cancer and diabetes combined. Ruffs already knew things would get worse and he was quite afraid of losing his mother, sobbing a little.

* **Tori**: I know, Ruffs... But there's no other choice... Before I forget, look over there. I have a gift for you... I don't know what will happen from today... Knowing your job as a space colonel is inherited by your father... Now you have your own uniform almost the same as his. (*Tears*) You are the last canine colonel on this planet, sweetie... It's up to you, I know you will be the best space leader of all...
* **Ruffs**: (*Sobbing*)
* **Tori**: (*Wipes Ruffs' eyes with her finger*) And you will always be my greatest treasure.

As if the fire meteor shower wasn't enough, beyond the planet K9-500, a black energy bomb (the same one that caused the death of Randolph and his soldiers) was approaching it. The others continued to panic, but at the same time they tried to remain calm, had a plan to save the most important treasures of the dog world: they brought small automatic space rockets to take them to other planets where they can still be preserved, just for other creatures from other parts of the Star System always remember the existence of K9-500. Then, two police officers desperately grabbed Ruffs by the arms and threw him into a small supply ship to send him to an unknown destination to be one of the only survivors there.

* **Ruffs**: NO! Get me out of here! Why is everything getting worse and worse?! I don't want a future different life! (*Tears*) I'd rather die alongside my mother than live a hundred years without her! \*Sniff\* Please! I want to accompany her! \*Sniff\* I love her more than anyone in this world! (*Sobbing*)
* **Tori**: (*Tears*) Saying goodbye is the hardest thing you can do... But every beginning has an end... Never give up on your dreams and everything you have faith in... I love you so much too, dear son... I will always be in your heart to give you support and warmth forever... Be successful, Ruffs... Goodbye...

Hearing those words, Ruffs couldn't stop crying. Since he no longer knew what to do, he then accepted the decision to save himself from the black bomb attack. As the supply ship flew as far away as possible, he saw his mother for the last time when she sadly passed away from the disease that overtook her. His heart has been broken into a thousand pieces by the loss of her. As the black bomb got closer to the planet, it released a huge explosion and completely destroyed it. Everyone there also died.

A sad past but a good start for this story about the real space dog who we all know about now... **Colonel Ruffs**.

**In the present**

Far from the Star System, we can see a giant ship, which is a space station with a logo presenting the group of galactic forces known as **Starr Force**, led by Colonel Ruffs himself... after searching for his own soldiers first, of course. Also, the planet K9-500 was a victim of the mass extinction caused by the supernova explosion of the black bomb and almost no one could survive there. Well, we all know life will always be chaos. Why make it worse by fighting?

Anyway, here Colonel Ruffs is already an adult. He learned to be an independent strategist and handle things all on his own. Quite happy that his dream came true, but very angry about the events of his past. In fact, all those bad memories mentioned above turned him into a grumpy, moody, introverted and bitter canine. Totally pained by the death of his mother, having a deep hatred of the new changes in his life. Reasons like these, he prefers to keep a cold attitude and not wanting to show his true feelings to someone else in the Universe.

Changing the scene, the colonel signs some important papers to try to distract himself from these problems. Eating dog food for lunch while he plans strategies for his own soldiers to focus on hard work to become great warriors. However, he begins to get headaches when he sees some photos of his family and his childhood friends posted in his new room. Very upset how the black bomb caused the biggest impact on K9-500 that made him lose all his loved ones. With all his anger, he plans to avenge and find the one responsible who destroyed his home planet no matter how long it takes.

From a long distance, hundreds of drones spy on the space station to observe what Ruffs is trying to do, figuring out what his target is. Behind the camera of the largest drone, we can see three faces of dark enemies that no one has ever seen, who are watching through the holographic screen of the **Black Hole Power** space dark tower where they live and work. Those three villains are known as **The Worst Bunch**: **Empress Bonnie**, the supreme leader of the group; **Overlord Byron**, the sinister co-leader and potion master; and **Galaxy Storm Lola**, a self-obsessed actress who loves the brightest things in the Universe.

The colonel turns back noticing that the drones were spying on him from afar and activates the projectiles of the spaceship to finish all of them at all once, dodging attacks such as lasers, artificial black holes, etc. After destroying them, Ruffs wonders himself if those drones have anything to do with the supposed culprit he is still tracking down. But since it's too late to investigate further, he prepares to go to sleep.

* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Brushes his teeth and spits*) Whoever you are, I will take revenge for all those heartbreaking memories you've created. (*Angrily throws his purple glass*) I will never forgive you! Not even your actions, your purpose, NOTHING! Imbecile... I'd have preferred to die than live thousands of years without my loved ones... My family... (*Drops a tear*) And my mother... Why accept the new changes in my life that only gave me bad results like this? Can't anyone enjoy it the same way as before anymore? Now I'm still here... grumpy and bored... The only thing which made me happy was when my dream of being a colonel came true. (*Picks up a toy bone and lies down on the bed*) Anyway, at least I learned to handle things on my own and became an independent, assertive, and focused fighter.

He yawns lightly and falls asleep chewing on his toy bone to strengthen his teeth. He then drops dog drool accumulated on the floor, forming a puddle that turns into a strange alien creature made of drool. He possesses light blue eyes, a blue tongue, and has behavior similar to a real dog. Only he can't bark at all, but he talks with squeaks.

The next day, Ruffs wakes up, gets out of his bed and is shocked to see the creature playing with his dog toys. He opens his closet going through all the old things he has as memories and found a gun that can fire two ricocheting projectiles. 'Hands up!' The colonel points his gun at the sticky alien who runs away with his toys before being shot. Our canine friend doesn't trust strangers who enter the space station without permission, but something surprising makes him see beyond the creature's own personality: As Ruffs approaches with his gun, the cute alien feels afraid of being killed and asks him to put away his weapon because he didn't come to attack him or his spaceship, but was as curious as he wishes to know the world around him since his creation. He just wants to have fun and enjoy the simpler things in life. The Colonel notices that he can communicate with squeaks that sound just like his dog toys, he gently takes him from his arms and the creature happily licks his cheek.

* **Colonel Ruffs**: Let's see know if I understood. The puddle that formed with the dog drool accumulated on the floor turned into an alien being made of drool which it's you. (*The creature nods*) I don't have any right words to describe... how sweet you are. (*Hugs him*) My accidental creation is the most unexpected and greatest thing I've ever seen. My own son. Your name will be... **Squeak**.
* **Squeak**: (*Squeaks happily*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Squeak, welcome to the universe and to the Starr Force. Sorry for scaring you. I'm not someone totally trusting of strangers, but I think you're great. You can play with my favorite dog toys if you want. I have had them since I was a puppy.

Squeak grabs the Colonel's dog toys and zigzags to his room to have some fun with them. Beneath his cold demeanor and tough fur, Ruffs hides a warm heart that proved to be gentle and understanding of his own creation never before made in his life. Believing that he can be a good father to Squeak, he vows to himself to do his best to take care of him no matter how difficult it may get.

While he operates the space station to track down the culprit behind K9-500's destruction, Squeak plays with various plastic balls that he doesn't realize is causing a mess in Ruffs' room. Since he is making a lot of noise, the colonel goes to check if everything there is in order, but it turned out that it was not true. His room was covered with slime everywhere and messy memories from the closet. Fortunately, although Ruffs is upset about what happened, he wouldn't think of attacking Squeak like he did a while ago. He decides to get used to it and have a little patience in these situations.

An hour passed. The colonel refuses to rest until he finds a trail of the responsible enemy to swear revenge, furiously pressing buttons, keyboards and levers. He barks at the holographic screen, clawing at it with all his rage and giving it a hard fist. Giving up his incredible determination? Never! A strong leader and strategist like him shouldn't give up so quickly when it comes to doing a good job. Keeping his steadfastness without letting his temper get the better of him. Suddenly, the radar system locates something on the planet Jupiter, so Ruffs immediately tells Squeak to come along on his mission, to which the blue alien excitedly agrees. They choose one of the rockets and take off at full speed.

As Ruffs concentrates, Squeak really enjoys the journey through space, watching the shooting stars and comets pass by. The two arrive on Jupiter and find a levitating space university called **Solar Nightfall Academy**, wondering who works there. The colonel lands the rocket next to the place, activating the levitation system in autopilot mode, since Jupiter is a gaseous planet that does not have a solid or rocky surface like Earth. They both get out of the vehicle and see how big the university is, both inside and out. They ring the bell but realize that there is no one inside who can answer them. So, they gently open the door to investigate it, looking up to see six floating energy balls used as a chandelier. Squeak hugs Ruffs because he is afraid of the dark and the strange noises that happen. Then, someone in shadow form opens the automatic door and trips over a book that fell from his hands, whose bark scared the sticky alien into running outside the university.

* **Andrew**: (*Gets up from the ground*) Excuse me for bothering you, sir, if I could know who you are. My name is Andrew, astronomer and librarian at Solar Nightfall Academy. Erm...
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Were you looking for this? (*Gives the glasses to Andrew*)
* **Andrew**: Absolutely. Still, my glasses fall off a lot when I work.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Excuse me if I interrupt you, but do we know each other?
* **Andrew**: What do you mean?
* **Harvey**: Oh, there you are, Andrew.
* **Ivor**: Behind! What am I looking at here!? An opponent!? A space villain!? A dark energy alien!?
* **Harvey**: Calm down, man. This military colonel is nothing like that. I mean, are you a real military colonel?
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Since he was thirteen years old.
* **Melody**: (**Singing**) ~Pop and rock for me~ (*Adjusting her glasses*) I'm sorry for the scandal, sir... colonel? Anyway, welcome to Solar Nightfall Academy! The four of us have worked here since we were eighteen years old. Politely, my name is Melody.
* **Harvey**: I'm Harvey. And this is Ivor.
* **Ivor**: (*To Ruffs*) Can you explain to us why the hell you came in unannounced?! What do you think you are?! An international spy?!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Covers his face*) Canine curiosity. Do you know? I have a strong feeling that we did meet before in the past.
* **Harvey**: The past? Are you talking about... our childhood friendship?
* **Andrew**: (*Looks at an old picture of Ruffs and his friends as puppies*) So you're Ruffs?
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Indeed. Colonel Ruffs at your service. Doubts?
* **Harvey**: (*Tears*) Unbelievable...
* **Melody**: I ​​may be blind from birth, but now you mention it, (*Tears*) it can't be!

The four of them are so happy to see him after the destruction of K9-500, that their eyes fill with tears of happiness and they hug him tightly. Although he is still moody because of the changes in his life, the colonel hugs them back and smiles a little. He couldn't believe they also survived the extinction of his home planet. Squeak is already brave enough to approach Ruffs' childhood friends as they look at him tenderly. After the Colonel introduces Squeak to the others as basically his son and creation, the four canines show them both their jobs they take on at the university: Andrew and Harvey are astronomers and librarians; Ivor, a baseball player and coach; and Melody, a professional singer and dancer who became famous from the age of 11.

At that moment, it is revealed that the Martians are the students of the place, entering politely when Andrew welcomes them to the place. With that, everyone begins to carry out the activities that they have to do, be it reading books, studying for exams, among others. Squeak gives a small yawn as he is sleepy, as Ruffs snuggles him in his arms to make him sleep while he says goodbye to his friends and gets on the rocket to return to the space station.

Once there, the colonel puts on his pajamas, brushes his teeth and goes to bed unraveling the sheets. A sleeping Squeak hugs the toy bone to settle in case he gets nightmares. Ruffs wraps him up in an old jacket that belonged to his father. Before going back to bed, he looks out the window checking that there aren't any more drones spying on him like the other day, pointing his gun around him. However, that doesn't happen this time, all quiet without mishaps, explosions or loud noises. So the colonel goes back to his bed, but his dream is cut short when he sees a photo of his mother with him cuddling on the wall, shedding a few tears but still trying to stay strong. He puts the photo away by throwing it into the closet and clenches his fists in anger that he keeps swearing revenge on whoever destroyed his home planet.

The next morning, Squeak wakes up with a yawn and bounces on Ruffs to help him out of bed, knocking him over. The military dog's eyes turned a little red as he had nightmares about his past life when he was a puppy. Well, actually, that happens all the time. He notices how much the blue alien has grown to be just the same size as him, pats his head and feeds him doggie kibble for breakfast. The colonel heads to the bathroom before continuing on his mission to find the culprit, rubbing his eyes and brushing his teeth. On the ceiling, little space creatures which are baby fleas enter his fur and stick their paws in to feed on his blood, making him itch. Ruffs starts scratching his head, arms and all over his body. Squeak sprays them with insecticide, but the fleas resist the effect because they are, in fact, aliens. The colonel is left with no choice but to simply kill them, so he uses his trusty gun for that. He fires ricocheting projectiles as he chases them all over the space station, watching as the hatchlings are making a mess by pressing buttons on the holographic display, summoning numerous security cameras targeting the military dog ​​with rapid fire, but he manages to dodge them all as he has very good reflexes and thinks before acting, blowing up the cameras with his gun.

Ruffs points it at the baby fleas to kill them, until out of nowhere, a shadowy figure kicks him in the stomach to stop him and send him flying into the control booth. Then, she walks towards him, somersaulting right into his muzzle with a serious look.

* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Shakes his head*) What the... ? Ooh, so we finally see each other face to face... Eve.
* **Eve**: So you're the formidable Colonel Ruffs...
* **Colonel Ruffs**: What do you want? Didn't you see that I'm having an important mission and your disgusting parasites came to introduce poison inside my fur?!
* **Eve**: My babies may be what you think, but they are my greatest treasure! Also, I am just finding out a better home for all of them. If they got here it's because they need to feed on the blood of a living being as a host. We are not alien fleas for nothing.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Do you mean a host like me, to be used as a resource or tenant?
* **Eve**: Well, that's how nature is supposed to work.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: You better get rid of those pests or I'll spray them myself.
* **Eve**: Don't even think about it, big boy!

The colonel ignores her to get his gun and insecticide with the purpose of eliminating Eve's babies. However, they defend themselves by jumping into his fur and biting him to make him itch again. The mother flea also does the same to help her babies before Ruffs shoots them. Causing him to drop his gun and immediately run to the bathroom using dog hygienic products to get rid of them, but none have worked. Taking a slight breath, he looks at himself in the mirror and can see Eve's little antennae, who giggles, assuming she's playing a prank on him. He grabs an old frying pan to kill her, but ends up hitting his head when the mother flea dodges him.

* **Colonel Ruffs**: Ugh! Why don't they f\*cking die?! How can baby fleas cause a wave of chaos on the space station?!
* **Eve**: (*Giggles*) Calm down, Firulais. No one would dare to notice our "dark" side, unless you do! (*Bites his head*)

The military dog ​​growls and barks loudly as he can't stop scratching himself, until Squeak sprays Eve and her hatchlings with sleeping lotion. Ruffs thanks his son for giving him a hand, so he can continue his quest to find whoever is responsible for K9-500's extinction.

Change of scene. 30 minutes go by and no matter how many times he tries, the colonel becomes more moody than before, as long as he hits the holographic screen in frustration. Along the way, he helps Squeak train himself to become a faithful soldier of the Starr Force. As the hours go by, the blue creature learned some techniques and strategies quite quickly, even surpassing his own creator who manages to recognize him as an innocent but mischievous, comical and energetic character.

Meanwhile, in the Black Hole Power tower, the Worst Bunch spy on Ruffs who grumbles at the holographic screen with a thirst for revenge but at the same time showing firmness in command of the Starr Force. The three sit on their thrones as Empress Bonnie orders her minions to set up the tower's traps in case the Colonel suddenly discovers the place and finds them. Triggering security cameras, lasers, electric spider webs, beetle robots, the list goes on. But if they fail, they'll have to fly to attack the Starr Force spaceship and defeat the galactic winged trio on their own. Overlord Byron rebuilds the drones with alien oil extract and sends them towards the space station to attack the Starr Force trio.

Ruffs reacts quickly and activates the station's weapons to destroy the drones.

* **Colonel Ruffs**: Enemy contact located! Hit the target, Squeak!
* **Squeak**: (*Pulls the stick to launch an airstrike around the drones*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: You're a fast learner, Squeak! Come on, go on!
* **Squeak**: (*Nods with squeaks*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Delta team! Requesting evac! (*Draws two aerial drops to get over all the drones once and for all*) See, my son? With practice, skill and effort, anything can be achieved. Worthy of a faithful soldier!
* **Squeak**: (*Squeaks*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: But this mission is not over yet.
* **Squeak**: (*Throwing blobs of goo to slow down following drones until they explode*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Come what may, I'd rather fall on my feet a thousand times than fall asleep with nothing to do.
* **Squeak**: (*Nods thumbs up*)
* **Eve**: Excellent, little ones! Lunch time!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Ugh! You again?!
* **Eve**: Excuse me, Mr. Hound, but I need to use you as a food resource for my babies.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Can't you see I'm rather busy?
* **Eve**: Oh please. Never get tired of tracking down unexpected targets?
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Question of patience and strategy if you allow me to explain it.
* **Eve**: Patience? Does a grumpy doggo with emotional problems know how to carry the value of patience even when he misses the target shot towards his worst enemy without telling anyone that he wants to cry to vent his frustrations?
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Looks at her seriously with bitterness*) First, don't call me doggo. Second, at what point did I ask you for sarcastic opinions about me?
* **Eve**: What? I always give my most sincere opinions about what I think of others, although it may seem that I am joking.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Hmph!
* **Eve**: (*Crosses her arms*) For goodness sakes, Firulais! You're such a bitter guy!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Points his gun at her*) One of two options! Either do you and your children get the hell out of here or should I to expel you in the worst way you can ever imagine?
* **Eve**: Unless we can join the Starr Force and make a great team with you two. (*The hatchlings jump happily*)
* **Squeak**: (*Squeaks happily*)
* **Eve**: Please, doggie. Can we? (*Her eyes sparkle*) Please!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: ...No.
* **Eve**: (*Sighs*) Well, I don't have any other choice for what's next. Attack him, kids!

Again, the baby fleas suck Ruffs's blood with their paws and make him more itchy, but the colonel gains more strength by attacking Eve first before the hatchlings. Running and pointing his gun at her as the mother flea rides her small spaceship to escape him and throws ten different sized eggs at him, but Ruffs dodges each one. The security cameras automatically activate upon detecting Eve's presence as an intruder and begin firing lasers following her every move. Squeak throws a large blob of goo at her to slow down the mother flea's spaceship, so Ruffs takes advantage of destroying the engines with the double lasers of his weapon. "CRITICAL ERROR!" Eve's spaceship alarm sounds, so she kicks the glass to escape and face the colonel, somersaulting into the fur and bites his head off, but Ruffs doesn't care at all anymore even though she's still itchy. The hatchlings finish their lunch of dog blood and are fully satisfied only for Squeak to strip them of the colonel's fur one by one.

* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Grumbles*)
* **Eve**: See? My babies were hungry. (*Chuckles*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Shut the heck up and get out of here. And get those filthy rats out of my sight!
* **Eve**: (*Crosses her arms*) Oh, how bitter. Stop insulting my adorable creatures of life.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Also, in my opinion, you're nothing more than a cheeky mother using her blessings as a weapon and poisoning her enemies and then leaving them to die. What the hell was your position of maternal responsibility?
* **Eve**: (*Pinches his left cheek*) I'm not a ruthless mother! I just train my kids to defend themselves!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Releases his breath to make her fly*) Do you swear to me?
* **Eve**: Ugh. I was going to serve you a delightful plate of lunch that every dog ​​loves, but for being introverted and bossy, I'm not going to give you anything.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: I know what you mean, but no thanks. And I will never let you be part of the galactic wings crew.
* **Eve**: (*Grumbling*) I wish I could consume what you consume.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: My parents never smoked or used drugs or alcoholic beverages in those days. They normally worked twenty-four hours a day. But my mother liked to go to meetings with her friends every other weekend.
* **Eve**: Interesting... Huh? (*Sighs*) Forget it.

Squeak snuggles Eve's babies in his arms and gently places them inside her little spaceship.

* **Eve**: Wow, awesome. What's your name, sweetie?
* **Squeak**: (*Squeaks*)
* **Eve**: Squeak? Ruffs' accidental creation?
* **Squeak**: (*Nods*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: You can say he's basically my son. He is made of bodily fluids.
* **Squeak**: (*Squeals; Pats Eve's head*)
* **Eve**: (*Giggles*) Ew, gooey. But you're as cute as my babies.
* **Squeak**: (*Squeals*)
* **Eve**: (*Giggles*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Alright. You can retire now.
* **Eve**: And without giving you an offering?
* **Colonel Ruffs**: I don't want to hear one of your silly jokes!
* **Eve**: Aww, poor Firulais. I bet the typical doggo lunch will get him in a good mood.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: I told you I'm not...! (*Picks up the box of dog food*) Give me that! (*Eating*) Hmm...
* **Eve**: (*Giggles*) I love that nice doggo smile you have. Then, I can happily retire.

After Eve and her children leave the space station, another wave of drones pick up their signal and give chase. Inside the spaceship, the mother flea snuggles her children while she sings a lullaby to help them sleep peacefully, without any strange or loud noise that bothers them. Eve always loves to sing songs as many times as she wants not only for fun but also to help her forget about her problems or when she needs to gain strength when it comes to overcoming any obstacles that she finds in her way. Many would hate her for being mischievous, restless and quite annoying, especially to Ruffs, but you guys will never recognize the incredible greatness of this character. You will know why.

Half an hour passed. Once the babies wake up from their nap, some of them have alien milk for snack and others learn about the importance of reading from Eve who liked to read her favorite stories to them when she was a baby. Being a sweet and educational mother, she really enjoys watching them grow up as they learn all about life both in the Universe and on planet Earth. When she was about to take a picture with them, something hits her spaceship hard making it wobble in a zigzag and the emergency alarm starts to sound with a signal on the radar screen that says "CRITICAL ERROR!". Eve notices the presence of the drones that were chasing her the entire time and destroyed the engines of her flying vehicle. Still, she flies as fast as possible to get away from their attacks no matter how risky the situation is. But as the engines fail, she decides to crash-land inside the Solar Nightfall Academy on Jupiter. KABOOM! She manages to land safely and accurately on the highest bookshelf in the library, spraying dust all around her. To her relief, Eve is very glad that her children are safe and sound, giving them a warm hug to let them know that she will never abandon them as a promise from her heart.

When Ruffs' childhood friends hear the noise of a small earthquake throughout the university, they activate the automatic doors in the library to investigate where it came from. Eve and the hatchlings hide behind the books as they push the spaceship around so they won't be discovered, so the mother alien can use the time to repair the engines.

* **Harvey**: Are you sure that something that fell from the sky shook the university?
* **Andrew**: Any clues?
* **Harvey**: (*Points to the ceiling*) Over there.
* **Andrew**: I doubt it would make sense that some smallest unidentified flying object in the entire universe could trigger massive earthquakes like this.
* **Ivor**: If it makes sense, don't be surprised when they confirm that the most abundant meteor shower in the galaxy would only destroy a skyscraper instead of an entire city.
* **Melody**: Or an industrial factory.
* **Ivor**: Yeah. That too. But who knows about philosophical logic? Anyway, let's take our fly swatters in case of pest emergency.
* **Andrew**: But this is the planet Jupiter, not Earth.
* **Ivory**: It doesn't matter.

Although her spaceship is still not fixed, Eve places her babies inside so they can quickly escape the library and leave the university, but they are instantly captured by the drones with electrical nets. The four dog friends go out to see what is happening outside while Andrew warns everyone to seek shelter from the invading drones that are destroying the university and kidnapping all the Martian students. Possessing a strong and fearless character, Ivor takes a high jump to fly several kicks into the air, shattering the weapons of flying enemies, and uses a giant library book as a shield to defend both himself and his other friends. Although depending on how much he can withstand his physical strength, drones are never far behind. Thanks to the advancement of technology in these modern times, they create robotic tentacles to capture the four canines without the slightest escape, while the smaller ones with claws wrap their necks as a way to prevent them from raising their voices for help. "*I am Empress Bonnie, the official voice of the Worst Bunch! Anyone who tries to interfere with our target out of disrespect... must be eliminated!*" Said words by the evil and powerful girl seen from a holographic reflection, ready to take down any intruder who makes her question her incredible intelligence for someone her age.

Meanwhile on the Starr Force space station, Ruffs is taking a light nap after eating an entire bag of dog food. Squeak continues to train himself to become an official soldier of the All-Star Trio and make his father proud, passing various practical, strategic, and defense tests. Described as an incredible accidental creation of a grumpy space dog, he is so full of active energy as to waste abundant hours of rest. So he quite loves to move and exercise all day.

On the other hand, the colonel suffers another of his nightmares about a tragic past. In that case, *he dreams that he was still thirteen years old and a scene similar to reality where Tori was in the hospital being operated on for an incurable disease. The doctors did what they could to control it, working out the right medicine recipes through modernized computers, finding the necessary ingredients and bringing them back to the lab. It took them two hours to create the latest modern medicine. The past Ruffs hugged his mother while he cried and was afraid of losing her like the day when his father Randolph and his soldiers died from the black energy bomb attack. Tori would say the same motherly words to him as in reality to always remind him that she will never be forgotten and she will be in his heart for all eternity. Suddenly, the same black bomb was approaching planet K9-500 and the inhabitants panicked. The two police officers desperately grabbed Ruffs by the arms and threw him into a small supply ship to send him to an unknown destination to be one of the only survivors there. He didn't want to run away from his home, but to stay by his mother's side until death, which Tori didn't think was a good idea. But when a giant meteor headed for the supply ship which was about to take off, she forgot about her illness and was determined to save her child... by sacrificing herself. Since the virus spread throughout her body until it reached her heart, totally unaware that her internal organs were no longer working and Tori passed out, to let the giant meteor fall on her and kill her instantly. Ruffs was shocked by what he had seen and couldn't help but sob, feeling helpless and fragile. The supply ship became operational again and took off at high speed to escape K9-500. The black bomb unleashed a huge explosion around the planet killing all the dogs, including Tori. Evil laughter could be heard from beyond, and three sinister shadows revealed themselves as the Worst Bunch, happy to see the world die from the black bomb's supernova explosion.*

Returning to the present, the colonel wakes up from his nap with tears in his eyes hugging himself while sobbing. Squeak sympathizes with him seeing him sad, wondering what the real reason for his downcast mood is. Ruffs briefly explains to him about what happened in his past when he was younger and the extinction of his home planet caused by the black energy bomb, which brought back very bad memories of how he lost everything he loved there, especially his mother. Now that he knows what caused him such deep pain, Squeak feels that in addition to training very hard to become a better Starr Force soldier, he would do anything for his creator and never abandon him or for things he longs for, able to show him how much he values ​​the strong sense of loyalty. The colonel wipes his eyes a little and gives his beloved son a warm hug, knowing that he can count on him not to give up no matter what. After having a brief sweet moment with each other as a family, the radar alarm sounds permissively as he manages to pinpoint the location of the killer of K9-500, something that helps cheer Ruffs up a bit. I told ya, even if he feels bad, he always remains determined to do his duty. Then, no more time to lose, he and Squeak jump into one of the rockets and take off as fast as they can.

The duo of galactic-winged heroes, traveling great distances in less than ten minutes, find the dark tower where the Worst Bunch live. The Colonel decides to get through the many portable windows by activating his rocket's camouflage mode, a way to prevent them from being noticed by security cameras and drones rebuilt by Overlord Byron. With no moors on shore, Ruffs and Squeak manage to land inside a secret room in the tower, fly out of the vehicle and light up the hallways with their silver Starr Force plates. Trying their best not to fall into any death traps while cautiously walking. But something strange caught Squeak's eye: a ball-shaped, turquoise gemstone that reflects in even the dimmest electric light. The colonel reacts quickly when his son wants to take that precious stone and that he does not know that it's a trap created by the villains. After Squeak took it, moving thick walls with silver spikes are activated and fly out one by one to stab the intruder's body.

* **Colonel Ruffs**: Come on, Squeak! What are you waiting for? Put it on in place!
* **Squeak**: (*Nods*)
* **Andrew**: Colonel Ruffs! Are you there?
* **Ivor**: Help us!
* **Harvey**: Hurry up!
* **Melody**: Be careful or you will fall into the cruel hands of the Worst Bunch! Never give up!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*To himself*) The Worst Bunch?

Squeak runs as fast as he can to put the turquoise ball back where it was, but trips over the flying spikes and drops that gemstone from his hands, and is unable to get up due to the autopilot system turning on five beetle robots that manufacture an icy storm at sub-zero temperatures to freeze the gooey creature. To make matters worse, the moving walls close at a more rapidly altered rate in order to crush Squeak, something that makes Ruffs react quickly to such a situation and doesn't hesitate to call in aerial supplies to destroy those robots, and dodges the spikes with skill to save his son. As the latter was frozen, the colonel cannot lift or push it. So, he points his gun at the laser beams to change direction towards Squeak to melt him...in a slower pace than usual. The moving walls almost close completely and Ruffs has no choice but to sacrifice his pistol to block them to buy more time. Once Squeak is freed, the two take a long jump as the walls and the Colonel's gun explode from a crash.

* **Squeak**: (*Squeals*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Calm down, my son. You are more important than any of my trusted military weapons.
* **Squeak**: (*Hugs him*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: We can lose and fall as many times as we can count, but never being stopped.

With that said, the two set off to discover where to find Ruffs' childhood friends. Going through several secret passageways and opening one of them, to their impression, they find them imprisoned by the robotic tentacles still squeezing the four of them. Andrew informs Ruffs and Squeak about the Worst Bunch, villains whose main function is universal genocide, exterminating anyone who stands in their way as disrespect and only seeking what is fair for them to continue climbing in power. The others tell the Colonel that they knew he had a sad past and empathize with him with the fact that they also miss their loved ones from their extinct home planet a lot, but unlike Ruffs, they managed to put their bad memories behind them to move on like now. But before the colonel frees his friends, three holograms of the Worst Bunch appear behind him ready for their first intense battle against the Starr Force.

* **Empress Bonnie**: The most powerful in the Universe keeping chained, whose goal is to restore what has already been extinguished. Dear Milky Way and Starr Force community, This is your sinister ruler, Empress Bonnie speaking.
* **Ivor**: Get out of here, you losers! Argh!
* **Empress Bonnie**: You are all imbeciles. Cowering in the dirt, thinking what, I wonder? That you might escape the coming fire? No. Your world will burn until its surface is but glass! And not even your Demon will live to creep, blackened, from its hole to mar the reflection of our passage; the culmination of our Journey. For your destruction is the will of the gods! And I...I am their instrument!
* **Ivor**: What the hell are you talking about?!
* **Andrew**: They will invade Earth after exterminating us first.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: The Earth...
* **Harvey**: Haven't you ever heard of that planet before?
* **Colonel Ruffs**: I was always curious to learn more about it, but I have never visited it even on my days off.
* **Overlord Byron**: And as for you, Colonel Ruffs, strategic leader of the Starr Force air armies. It is better to think fast than to act slowly. At any time we will have the opportunity and advantages to climb the dark power through our first All-Starr battle.
* **Galaxy Storm Lola**: (*To Ruffs*) I know what typical words you'll unleash, honey. But apparently you can't say them because of severe depression. (*Mischievous laugh*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Wait...
* **Empress Bonnie**: What? Did you lose your mind? You don't even have computerized knowledge of us?
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Lowers his head and clenches his fists*)
* **Empress Bonnie**: Respond, maggot! I am the real voice of the Worst Bunch! Show some respect!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: You...
* **Empress Bonnie**: Louder!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Angry*) THEN WHAT WERE YOU MONSTERS!

You got it right, gentlemen! The Worst Bunch were responsible for destroying most of the host planets in the Star System, including K9-500! Said Ruffs' words, he acts stubbornly shooting lasers at the three ruthless villains, but the attack fails due to them being obviously holograms and he can pass through without any problem. The colonel sighs in frustration, raising his fists in irritation and his face reddening slightly, staring at the trio of special enemies with all his anger, not believing that they were the ones who ruined everything he ever held dear... especially the eternal memories of his family. While the four dog friends are still trapped by the robotic tentacles, but thanks to Melody's ingenuity, despite her blindness and being suffocated, she uses her trusty microphone singing one of her own songs that she wrote a few years ago, forming sound waves in static that causes a supernova explosion to the tentacles and manages to free herself and her other friends.

* **Empress Bonnie**: Ha. Incredible ingenuity for an underappreciated visually impaired poodle.
* **Melody**: I can be blind and sometimes doubt myself, but never a pretentious victim!
* **Empress Bonnie**: You are sorry for others.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Angry*) You will pay for your unforgivable acts right now!
* **Empress Bonnie**: Do you desire pure revenge? You better be 100% ready as an invincible strategist... Neither you nor your weakling son will make it out alive... (*Evil laugh*)

Said words, the hologram of the Worst Bunch turns off. Shaken but calm, Ruffs has a feeling that the right place for the first galactic fight against them is the Starr Force space station. Before leaving, Andrew tells him that he and the others will use the time to save all the Martian students as soon as they can before the return of the three villains. The Colonel pats Squeak on the head who is more scared than last time and hugs him to comfort him. A female chant is then heard echoing around the communication system room, leading the space hero duo to figure out where it's coming from to the automated toilet. It's Eve and her babies fixing their ship as they get trapped inside a bubble-shaped force field made of black energy.

* **Colonel Ruffs**: Eve?
* **Eve**: I'm fine, thanks.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Seriously, what the hell do you think you're doing here? Won't you free yourself?
* **Eve**: You? Free me and my little treasures of life? (*Giggles*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Why should I do it if you are guys more independent creatures than a cowardly spectre?
* **Eve**: We're almost done repairing our ship and you two came in with electromagnetic cables? Attracted for eternity! (*Chuckles*) Do you understand? Magnets *attract* us together as friends. (*Giggles*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Crosses his arms*) Hehe. Yes, clown brat.
* **Eve**: I'd rather be a clown than an unfriendly sergeant.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Also, they're not cables. They are electric eels.
* **Eve**: What?
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Nah. They already killed them.
* **Eve**: Haha. Very funny, Firulais.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Crosses his eyes*) Okay. If you insist so much.

Ruffs aims his laser gun at the force field, breaking it in two, thus freeing Eve and her little ones, who managed to finish repairing the spaceship.

* **Eve**: See? She was like a new toy. Fresh out of the box. (*Giggles*)
* **Squeak**: (*Squeaks*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: I know, Squeak. Whatever they do, the Worst Bunch will never get away with it. (*Lowers his head, softly*) My greatest revenge for my lost past.
* **Eve**: Is something wrong, Colonel?
* **Colonel Ruffs**: And who asked you? Aren't we enemies?
* **Eve**: Well... We may be-
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Different? Oh yeah. I'm a space hound and you're a hyperactive alien flea.
* **Eve**: True. But-
* **Colonel Ruffs**: I take no excuses from anyone, friend or foe!
* **Eve**: None of that. I mean... despite our different past experiences, believe me, I've suffered a lot just like you.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: And why? Did your parents abandon you? Were you a victim of bullying? Or are you trying to make fun of me again?! (*Sighs*) I don't care about your life. I'm more concerned about mine. Get out, Squeak.
* **Squeak**: (*Nods*)
* **Eve**: Ruffs, wait!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: LEAVE ME ALONE! COLONEL ORDER!

After that, he and Squeak get on the rocket, take off and fly as fast as possible to get back to the space station, so they can face the Worst Bunch before the place is attacked or controlled by evil forces. As Eve and her babies watch them through a window of the Black Hole Power tower. Although at first she doesn't get along with Ruffs since the first time they met a few months ago, the mother flea begins to feel concern and sadness for him, knowing perfectly well that he doesn't deserve to suffer more if he had such a hard past to deal with, because she has also experienced horrible moments when she was a child, telling her children about this: *Her mother was a ruthless monster who totally hated her family, more Eve for being cheerful, feminine, beautiful, sociable, intelligent, self-confident and values ​​self-love; She always treated her like trash while she took advantage of the time to kill all the other members of the family, including her husband. When she was about to kill Eve, the kid flea defended herself by giving her tremendous kicks to the eyes, a powerful punch to her face, hitting her several times with a broken flip flop, etc. and she finally managed to escape from her old home to avoid further domestic and family violence. Later, two policemen took the mother to prison for what happened and locked her in a dungeon with other prisoners who were thieves, more sorry for her actions than she was. Learning that she was a murderous mother as a major danger to alien society, they fiercely slaughtered her bare-knuckle until she was crushed like green apple jelly. Well deserved for the well-being of poor Eve, who had been crying for almost six months but at the same time giving her best to overcome all this.*

Eve lets a few tears fall from her eyes remembering it, but she is also happy that she managed to move on as she never let her evil mother's anger win her over despite being treated like her slave. She never lost her happiness or her hope and learned from bad experiences to ease that pain. Because of that, she herself built her own little spaceship as her new home and had to learn to be a mother at an early age. Quite complicated because that takes a lot of responsibility, but seeing her babies hatch from a nest of eggs... was the best mothering experience she's ever had, even to this day. After listening to her stories, all the hatchlings feel very lucky to have an educational, loving, sweet and brave mother like Eve, as much as they give each other a group hug and her, of course.

* **Eve**: (*Giggles*) Always as sweet as lil' cinnamon rolls. I remember I promised to do my best to be a better mother, much more than mine ever was. And it was finally fulfilled. Playful kids like you not only deserve quality time, be productive for household chores, among other things. Mother love was the greatest gift I could give you, and it's even more nowadays. I will always be your greatest inspiration to achieve whatever you set out to do no matter what.

After these words, the hatchlings happily hug their beloved mother again. Later, Eve decides to help Ruffs and Squeak in their Starr battle against the Worst Bunch, even if the colonel is not used to her yet. Without wasting any more time, all the alien fleas get on the spaceship and head for the Starr Force space station.

Speaking of which, Ruffs and Squeak are a little late because the Worst Bunch did it first, but that will give him a good chance to come up with a plan. Minutes later, Eve and her little ones fly through the window to give them a hand, but the colonel refuses her help. Her flea mother doesn't give a damn about what he thinks of her even when they both barely met a couple of years ago, because she only wants to help him because she knows he feels bad despite not understanding what happened to him. However, Ruffs ignores her and teaches Squeak about his plan to take down the three villains.

Overlord Byron summons robots controlled by the DNA of his alien minions to locate and attack the heroes, while Galaxy Storm Lola and Empress Bonnie wreak havoc on the Starr Force.

* **Overlord Byron**: Find them! Locate traces of the military canine!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Fires the double laser at him*)
* **Overlord Byron**: Ow...
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Put your hands up!
* **Overlord Byron**: So we met you in person, Captain.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Finally... My long-awaited revenge for the extinction of my home planet!
* **Overlord Byron**: Ha! Why taking revenge on something or someone already extinct? Can't you process enjoying your current daily life?
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Do you think I should give up, moron? My home, the best memories of my childhood, my dream come true, my family...! Is there a better change than that? Not anymore! All I want is to return my life to normal, since when I fulfilled my greatest wish of all: becoming myself into a space colonel like my father. As always, I was very excited for the New Year to come, until you three ruined the moment we've all been waiting for.
* **Overlord Byron**: Pyrotechnics? But if all the inhabitants of K9-500 are pure dogs, weren't you supposed to have a more sensitive sense of hearing than humans?
* **Colonel Ruffs**: We are space dogs, aliens, as weird as that sounds. What did you expect? In terms of personality, we are more human than many of them on Earth.
* **Overlord Byron**: You said you've never visited that planet.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: No, but I have information collected about it.
* **Overlord Byron**: Whatever. You have strategic plans, but it takes more guts to realize that depression is temporary, in a conscious and non-victimizing way.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Who cares? It was the worst experience I've had lately! I'm tired of spending years of severe depression with nothing to do! Full of anxiety, stress, loneliness, resentment...! (*Sighs, drops a tear*) I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU!

After venting, Ruffs clenches his fists and readies his weapon for a head-to-head battle against Byron, to which he accepts the challenge.

Meanwhile, a shy Squeak runs around hiding in any corner from the robots still trying to find his tracks. He doesn't know what to do about it despite having understood Ruffs' plan to save the space station. He sighs in relief when the robots fail to figure him out, but in front of him, Lola appears, throwing green diamonds from her pet alien scarf at him. Squeak forms a puddle of goo that moves at full speed, sliding under Lola's feet to make her slip. Bonnie shoots dark baby teeth from her cannon Clyde all over the Starr Force control center. Eve doesn't plan to stand by and watch the chaos, she gets on her little spaceship and sends her hatchlings flying to inject the Empress with poison, but Clyde forms a huge tooth of purple fire by throwing it right at them. Only seven baby fleas are hit by the attack, while the rest get stuck in the cannon and do a surprise badass jump right into Bonnie's face.

* **Eve**: Are you okay, my blessings of life? (*The hatchlings nod*) Aww...
* **Empress Bonnie**: Lovable yet reckless warrior mother.
* **Eve**: Catch me if you can, beast girl!
* **Empress Bonnie**: Bonnie and Clyde, into the charge!

The cannon takes off accelerating a few kilometers chasing Eve, who flies much faster than the Empress.

On the other hand, Ruffs and Overlord Byron continue to fight each other. Dodging each attack whether big or small, because both come out tied. The colonel is getting a little tired that the villain points the cane at his chest begging him to give up, while the robots form a square around the two in order to help Byron in the end of the battle. Arm cannons charging balls of energy mixed with the alien oil extract from the staff. Ruffs takes a deep breath thinking of his incredible determination instead of giving up, he inhales and yells 'STARR POWER!' in order to fly a fist of purple fire in Byron's face and destroy all the robots. Surprised, the colonel wonders how he managed to obtain this strange power, but he will find out later when he helps Squeak defeat the other two Worst Bunch members.

Inside the space station, Lola lets out a maniacal laugh as she distracts herself by looking at herself in the mirror. Squeak is still traumatized by the presence of the enemies who is hiding behind an Oscar trophy-shaped statue. Lola's ego is seen as a mirror reflection with shining star eyes and winks at her bearer. Her pet alien scarf hears some soft squeaks, she looks at the statue as close as she can and sees Squeak who is trembling in fear but at the same time trying to stay still so as not to be noticed by the manic narcissistic lady. He sighs in relief, but then the drones arrive checking the place with the function of finding any sign or trace of the creature, which turns back into a puddle of goo to hide better. Two of those find him on the ground, but fail to recognize him. Three robots resurrected by Byron admire his superior despite having lost the battle against Ruffs, as much as they are throwing him into the air showing how much they love him no matter what. Squeak reverts to his original form as he can no longer wait for the colonel to arrive to help him, as he is more afraid than ever that he trips over a malfunctioning drone on the ground. Lola finds out and throws sparkly green diamonds from her pet, but Squeak quickly fights back by throwing a giant blob of goo at her slowing her movements. It gives him plenty of time to looking for the colonel.

Outside, Empress Bonnie is still chasing Eve while Clyde shoots dark baby teeth. The mother flea manages to dodge almost all of her attacks, except one that ends up destroying the engine of her little spaceship. The drones chase Eve as well and drop bombs of dark energy, but as always ready to overcome any obstacle, she throws giant eggs that when they explode generate three giant hatchlings each. They insert poison inside the drones to slow them down and the internal systems warn the self-destruct signal in 30 seconds.

* **Empress Bonnie**: Really?! Mighty skills for a flea the size of a human fist?!
* **Eve**: Psychopaths like you don't know how capable I've become after years of my toughest experiences! (*Breaks the glass of the spaceship with a kick again*) Effort and hard work!
* **Empress Bonnie**: Impossible!
* **Eve**: I bet you I'd never fail to get your hopes up with my own brave, wise little mother flea tricks up my sleeve!

Eve does an amazing backflip pulling a purple blanket out of nowhere and lands on Bonnie's head covering her face, causing the Empress to lose control of her cannon because she can't see where she's flying. Crashing into the walls of the space station. Eve pulls her blanket away from Bonnie's face to reveal a giant egg that explodes with poison, hatching a larger hatchling that sticks its paws into Bonnie's head to suck blood. Bonnie screams panicked as she tries to control Clyde's flight, but it's too late as the drones self-destruct at the same time after 30 seconds, just for Eve to do another somersault to get away from the explosion and get on the spaceship, not giving a damn about the blown engine. The smoke reveals Bonnie and her cannon being crashed into a basement and carbonized by the exploding drones.

* **Colonel Ruffs**: Delta team! Hands up!
* **Squeak**: (*Squeaks; With a blob of goo in hand*)
* **Overlord Byron**: For Big Bang theory sakes!
* **Galaxy Storm Lola**: You guys are bastards!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: *QUIET!* Arrested for robbery and total chaos at the Starr Force station!
* **Empress Bonnie**: Insinuating that we would fall out on our heads that easily? Well, let us make the process of your impossible mission worse! (*Mischievous laugh*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: What are you...? The Starr Force plate of crystal!
* **Empress Bonnie**: Ooh, looks like the spicy-boom adrenaline hound has lost his long-term memory. Don't you think?

The Worst Bunch disappear with the Starr Force plate of crystal teleporting to another part of the universe. Red-faced, Ruffs lets out a scream of fury and a powerful bark to vent his frustrations, kicking the three robots resurrected by Byron and lowering his head with his fists clenched, holding his anger under pressure. Squeak wants to give him a hug to cheer him up, but knowing how pissed off his father is, he prefers to wait until he calms down.

* **Eve**: Ruffs...
* **Colonel Ruffs**: WHAT DO YOU WANT NOW?!
* **Eve**: Sorry, I didn't mean to piss you off even more, but I just came to give you two a hand.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: I told you we don't need your help!
* **Eve**: But the Worst Bunch...
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Ooh, sure. Once again making fun of my priority!
* **Eve**: Enough! You've been trying to get over it all for years and you're still cranky like never before! Grow up! No one could stand someone like that!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Grow me up?! You have no idea how much effort I have given to learn from those past experiences! The problem? Accept the new changes of my current life!
* **Eve**: And what's wrong with that? You should stop holding on to something that cannot be restored, like your past!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: That's what the plate Starr Force of crystal is for! (*Sighs*) Created with Artificial Intelligence, whose function is to travel through time once and for all... to recover everything I have lost... Especially, my family... My mother...
* **Eve**: (*Climbs Ruffs's back and sits on his shoulder*) I'm so sorry those tragedies changed you from who you were before.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: At least I have the willpower I inherited from my parents. Both of them were also brave fighters and never let themselves be dominated by anyone, not even their own strict parents who were my maternal and paternal grandparents. They were always an inspiration to me.
* **Eve**: I can notice...
* **Colonel Ruffs**: And it's all over... Unless I have the willpower of a military hound, whose next mission: get back that crystal! Get on, Squeak!
* **Eve**: (*Sighs*)... Wait! If things get worse, my babies and I are ready to help you face the Worst Bunch.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Crosses his shoulders*) Do you really think you can do it?
* **Eve**: Word of honor! We are small, but with a huge brave heart. We were able to kick Empress Bonnie's butt, after all.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Will you leave with the damaged engine?
* **Eve**: That doesn't matter.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Sighs*) Alright. I'll give you a good chance to prove that you're a true ally. If you die in the process, it's not my fault. Understood?
* **Eve**: Got it, captain! (*The hatchlings jump with excitement*) It will be our first real Starr battle to the infinity and beyond the unknown Universe!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Meh.

Change of scene. The trio of heroes arrive at Black Hole Power without being noticed by the Worst Bunch. Inside, the plate of Ruffs' hat illuminates the darkness to track the unseen footsteps of enemies and find the Starr Force plate of crystal. The colonel prepares his gun when necessary, looking around him if anyone is watching them. He finds an empty hallway and runs there to find out where that little light source is coming from. Or rather, a very faint glow. Ruffs stops his feet when he realizes that the hallway leads to a supposed hologram cliff, as the glow was blocking his sharp view. He shakes his head, rubs his eyes to see more clearly and notices that inside an electrical grid cage is the Starr Force plate of crystal. Assuming that villains don't like to make things easy to solve, it's something that Ruffs is less concerned about, as he managed to overcome the most difficult obstacles in galactic military school on a few occasions when he was younger. So, he decides to dash through the hallway as he uses his gun to deactivate some hidden traps. Double lasers bounce off multi-dimensional mirrors that create atomic illusions to prevent directional disorientation. The Colonel sends an airdrop to drop into the electrical cage and recover the Starr Force plate of crystal. However, a dark baby tooth gets in the way and the plate falls into the hands of Empress Bonnie.

* **Empress Bonnie**: Incredible strategic dynamic, but you've gone so far from facilitating practical solutions.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Such an arrogant dumbass you've shown!
* **Empress Bonnie**: I am glad to have met someone unable to judge me for being an ordinary child, when no one believes that my inner power is indomitable. (*Hugs him tightly*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Growling*) Enough! Let me go! I order you to return the plate to me!
* **Empress Bonnie**: Whoever finds it keeps it, you cranky forty-year-old dog! It's totally mine now!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: I told you to let me go!
* **Empress Bonnie**: No, give me that!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: It's mine!
* **Empress Bonnie**: Don't be naive! When I say it's my plate, it's...! (*Eve hits her in the head with an aluminum tube*) Mine... (*Faints*)
* **Eve**: You think you're too important, huh?
* **Squeak**: (*Squeaks*)
* **Eve**: Nothing stops the potential of a mother flea, sweetie.
* **Squeak**: (*Squeaks; Hugs her*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Swear revenge against the Worst Bunch, done. Get back the glass plate, done. I feel that one more thing is missing, but well, I let something remind me when I least expect it. Let's go!
* **Eve**: Do you know something? I think this is such a crazy, non-funny mission.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: You mean?
* **Eve**: I mean, the best thing you can do is move on and live in the present while you can. Changing the past is impossible, no matter how hard you try.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Do you think I'm dumb enough to you repeat the same naive advice you gave?
* **Eve**: It was just life advice, Ruffs. But it must work better than your plans about fixing the past when it can't be.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: A better change? Well, you already lost. After too many failed for long years of depression and darkness, the power of the crystal plate will be my last option. Zero doubts and a complete sure test when I connect it to the rocket ship.
* **Squeak**: (*Squeaks*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Not now, Squeak.
* **Squeak**: (*Nervous squeaks*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: I said I can't play now.
* **Squeak**: (*Squeals loudly; Someone is dragging him*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Squeak! (*Three hologram tentacles grab him*)
* **Overlord Byron**: Where do you think you're going?
* **Colonel Ruffs**: What are you going to do to my son, you imbecile?!
* **Overlord Byron**: Less talk and more action. Lock him up, minions!

The robots imprison Squeak inside one of the random secret passageways where no one will be able to find him. Eve gets on her spaceship and shoots flea eggs at the Worst Bunch, but they dodge her attacks and Lola's alien scarf eats some eggs until it has a heart attack from the poison they carry. Bonnie launches from the cannon to hit Eve's spaceship and completely destroy the damaged engine. The mother flea comes out of her vehicle doing a great mortal jump towards the hologram tentacles to free Ruffs. She tries to bite them, but they are very resistant. The colonel decides to do it himself, as his bites can cut even the hardest of materials. Including the tentacles, whose systems overheat thanks to Ruffs' explosive temper, who manages to free himself.

* **Colonel Ruffs**: Go ahead! All of you is arres-...! Where the hell are you?
* **Galaxy Storm Lola**: Quick, Byron! Don't just lie there!
* **Empress Bonnie**: What are you waiting for, useless?! Hurry up we're here...! (*Ruffs attacks her*) (*Screams*)
* **Overlord Byron**: Hey! More respect to our superior! (*Ruffs kicks him in the stomach*) Argh!
* **Galaxy Storm Lola**: Come here, doggie.~ Look for him! (*Throws the Starr Force plate of crystal onto the cliff*) I'm brilliantly brilliant~! (*Mischievous laugh*) (*Ruffs barks loudly to scare her away*) (*Screams*)
* **Empress Bonnie**: No, that plate is mine!
* **Eve**: (*Slaps her*) Shut up, you filthy rat!

The Colonel throws himself off the cliff in order to retrieve the crystal plate. And he did it, but then he sees that there is a black void where there is no surface to fall on his feet, so Eve flying in her little spaceship rescues him and goes away from the villains.

* **Eve**: You're too heavy!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Because your spaceship is small.
* **Eve**: Whatever, but get off now!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Gets off the spaceship*) Squeak! Are you here?
* **Eve**: (*Sighs*) Quite a pathetic adventure for that artificial plate...

Like all dogs, Ruffs have a highly developed sense of smell. So, with that he can find Squeak's traces and the secret passage where the villains locked him.

* **Colonel Ruffs**: Squeak? My son? (*Door shakes*) Squeak!
* **Squeak**: (*Shudders scared*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Uses the double laser on his gun to cut through the door*) Squeak. Are you okay?
* **Squeak**: (*Squeaks*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Hugs him*) I'm here, my son.
* **Eve**: Well? Can we leave or what?
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Don't be obstinate!
* **Eve**: You are!
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Covers her face with his paw*) So you stop being talkative.

Back at the space station, the colonel takes the Starr Force plate of crystal and connects it to the space rocket's engines. Squeak decides to accompany him in case Ruffs doesn't get over his negative thoughts entirely, being a loyal soldier since his creation. Who would do anything to put a smile on his face even a little bit. The two are ready to leave and return to the past. Honestly... I don't think it's such a good idea by chance... Even Eve gets upset that the military dog didn't take her advice seriously, that instead of accepting it he rejected it. A mother flea whose main purpose is to help improve everyone's life... being ignored and despised by a bitter colonel who tries to change something that cannot be changed. Of all the best solutions out there for putting the past behind him, Ruffs chose the most pathetic but dangerous one.

* **Colonel Ruffs**: I couldn't have done it without you, Squeak. I admire your strong sense of loyalty.
* **Squeak**: (*Squeaks*) (*Turns back looking at an angry Eve*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Leave her. She has more important things to focus on.
* **Squeak**: (*Squeaks*)
* **Eve**: This is going to get worse than I thought...

Ruffs' rocket takes off and flies at top speed, leaving the space station despite his fulfilled dream as a canine colonel. He tells Squeak that it will take an hour to get to the Purple Sun, which there has a series of invisible portals that lead the aliens to travel through time if they travel at speeds exceeding the speed of light. And that's the function of the Starr Force plate of crystal. Used as a fuel tank and cybernetic shield to prevent overheating while the rocket is flying at those speeds.

An hour later, outside the Solar System, Ruffs and Squeak manage to reach where the purple Sun is located, the rocket engines descend and they begin to travel at extreme speeds going through the invisible portals in just 5 seconds, but for real time it is 1000 years ago, at the time when Pluto was considered a planet of the Solar System compared to today, as well as the origin of the planet K9-500, his former home. This leaves the colonel confused because his goal was supposed to be reunited with his family. So, he again travels through time at a more ferocious speed than before. And it took only 3 seconds, but for real time it is 50 years in the future, the present of which is the modern colony of the Worst Bunch after the defeat of the Starr Force. Hundreds of drones detect the presence of the galactic hero duo, the great confusion which they take when realizing that they were not totally defeated or dead.

* **Squeak**: (*Nervous squeaks*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: NO! LET HIM GO!
* **Future Galaxy Storm Lola**: But what...? (*Faints*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Do something, Squeak, do something!
* **Squeak**: (*Throws a large gooey bomb that splits into six and destroys the drones*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: Let's carry on, Squeak!

And so on. Traveling through time at different powerful speeds. No matter what they do, they can't go back to the time of Ruffs' parents, or after General Randolph's death. Instead, they end up back where they started: the present. However, the actual time that those time trips lasted was more than six and a half months. The invisible portals explode on contact from the now destroyed Starr Force plate of crystal overheating. Feeling guilty, Ruffs can't believe what he did, but he can understand why he shouldn't keep getting stuck to something that is impossible to fix, like changing the past. Eve was right all the time without bragging, but he preferred to take his own initiatives on his own. In other words, he lost his mind to accept Eve's advice is healthier and better than the dangerous decision he made. Also, because of how annoying the mother flea was to the Colonel, he constantly ignored and despised her despite giving her an opportunity to demonstrate her actions as a true ally and later officially join the Starr Force team.

With all that, it reveals that his negativity, bad mood and stubbornness were what prevented the colonel from making the wisest decisions that exist in general. Even if he still feels bad about losing everything he loved, this time... he accepted that fact. After so many years of severe depression, he finally learns that there is no turning back from holding on to what caused him eternal pain. What happened, already happened. There are always healthier ways to relieve that pain and improve your life. Moving on and living in the present while you can, especially with those you love the most in the entire universe, even if it's sometimes difficult to accept the new changes in life. Squeak gives his father a warm hug to remind him that he will always be by his side and stay faith, to which Ruffs is glad to hear. From now on, he will accept Eve's wise words and use them to learn how to improve his life.

After this reflection, suddenly, the colonel turns back to see a strong flash of dark light and remember the Worst Bunch said that they would do anything to bring about the extinction of the next located planet: Earth. No more time to waste, the galactic-winged hero duo spring into action to face their mighty space foes once again, flying around faster than ever.

At the Black Hole Power tower, the trio of villains summon one of their most useful secret weapons on the spot: a giant black hole-shaped drill. After a malevolent speech from Empress Bonnie towards the Earthlings, they turn on the weapon ready to destroy the Earth. But, for some strange reason, it points to the wrong place, which is the real black hole, which sucks it. To their surprise, Ruffs and Squeak are revealed to be the ones trying to foil their diabolical plans. Bonnie firmly believes that they will not be able to beat her this time in a Starr battle, since despite her size, she is a totally destructive evil girl who is capable of slaughtering the most powerful of villains. For a minute, she thought Ruffs wants to get back everything he has lost in the past, but she notes the colonel stopped getting worried about that as he prefers to move on and focus on the present. Both prepare to face each other in an intense intergalactic fight, while a brave Squeak attacks Byron and Lola to stop them.

The battle between the two lasted almost 15 minutes. Ruffs gets tired of keeping up more than Bonnie and faints out.

* **Colonel Ruffs**: Squeak... Help... I can't... fight anymore...
* **Empress Bonnie**: (*Stands on Ruffs' back; Evil laugh*) Finally! My victory! I hope this serves as a lesson for you to never judge someone by their size! (*A small green hand grabs her by the neck and begins to choke her*) That's why... you should know... the importance... of respect... for your superiors! I. Am. Bonnie... The voice... of the Worst Bunch!
* **Eve**: (*Chokes her more with both of her hands*) And so, you must be punished! (*Stabs her in the back*)
* **Empress Bonnie**: (*Screams in pain; faints*)
* **Colonel Ruffs**: (*Squeak helps him up*) (*Exhales*) Eve?
* **Eve**: Do you still remember me? I told you it would be a piece of cake! (*Chuckles*)

The Starr Force won the battle. Back at the space station, Ruffs congratulates Squeak and Eve for showing the courage of true warriors of the galactic forces and how hard they worked. The Colonel places a purple cap and a belt with small stickers on Squeak for his honorable loyalty. Also, Ruffs apologizes to Eve for ignoring her wise advice all the time, just as she apologizes for being an annoyance at first, and they both make amends with a high-five. The colonel officially approves her as an honorable member of the Starr Force trio and gives her the most powerful weapon of any loving mother: the flying Starr Force Flip-Flop, to which Eve feels very grateful and hugs her children who are very happy for her and to join the galactic force team. Squeak gives all of them a group hug.

Five hours later, it's bedtime for Squeak and the baby fleas, while Ruffs and Eve gaze at the constellations through the bone-shaped window.

* **Colonel Ruffs**: So you had a sad past too?
* **Eve**: (*Nods*) And disturbing, to be honest. As I told you, my psychopathic mother always treated me like a slave just because I value myself and love seeing others happy. No matter how hard I try, my haters always see me as the bad guy.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: I know. And I'm happy to know despite everything that happened, you never let that anger win... and you just wanted to be a better mom for your children. You moved on despite the bad experiences that have happened to you.
* **Eve**: Thank you, Firulais. (*Chuckles*) And it makes me happy to know that your parents were great fighters and good-hearted people. You should be fortunate.
* **Colonel Ruffs**: And I am. You know? I don't think I've lost it at all. In fact, the present gave me the greatest gift I've ever received in my entire canine life... (*Strokes Eve's cheek*) A new family.

Hearing these words, Eve feels tears of happiness and they both give each other a sweet hug while the beautiful constellations form a smiling heart along with the Starr Force logo.

And this is just the beginning of the story of the fantastic space series... **Starr Force: Galactic Team**.

**THE END**
