7. The Agreement

The battle between the Bellcross and Melnayer continues, the Argonaut and its mechs fend off the Bronze Tribe, but Yuti Raa persuades Mehitaka, another Nodos, to transform into Artemia and destroy the Argonaut. The princess has the Argonaut go to active warp to escape; Bellcross blocks Artemia’s immense energy blast to help it escape. They get back to the Starway but another Bronze Tribe nest is there to welcome them. However, the nest is destroyed by the planet’s defence fleet, whose female captain is an old acquaintance of Captain Mobead. After much discussion, the female captain decides to join the Argonaut in its quest.
