[LAUGHS] Would you look at that?

It's like we bashed straight through to olden times.

Try to stay in the present, Fuse. We won't be here long.

Come on, Havoc, clue me in. Where are we?

VOICE: Greetings, noble travellers

and welcome to Cavern Quest.

Deep within these chambers,

the treasure of Aezethril awaits.

Will you be the one to claim it?

Don't mind if I do. Hey!

It's a hologram, you dolt.

This whole place is a holographic game park.

You mean the one in the news vids?

Cavern Quest, grand opening next month?

[LAUGHS] What a great sister you are

- taking me for a sneak peek. - This isn't a family fun day.

We're here to steal the Holotrix.

It's the most powerful piece of holographic tech ever built.

Just imagine what the Hood could do with one of these.

- Is that why he sent us? - He er... didn't exactly.

You mean he doesn't know we're here?

We need to get back on his good side after all the times you failed him.

Seeing this thing will be a nice surprise.

- Trespassers! - Ooh!

Impressive hologram. Very real-looking.

- Ow! - Begone from this place!

We'll leave once the Holotrix is ours, old man.

Thieves? By the winds of Dinali,

you shall not take it!

Begone, I say!

[RUMBLING] [MUSIC]

I don't think I like this game.

ANNOUNCER: Five.

Four.

Three.

Two.

One. [THRUSTERS]

[TITLE MUSIC]

Thunderbirds Are Go!

[MUSIC]

- Snack on this, you beastie. - Wait. It's just a hologram.

After the last one, I'm not taking any chances.

Guess I was wrong. [BEEPING]

Move!

Ah.

- My wand! - Finders keepers, old man.

[CREAKING]

That turned it on.

Come on. Let's get what we came for.

Nay! Do not enter.

The quest is not yet complete.

[TYRES SCREECHING]

[COUGHS]

Come in, mortal realm.

I require your aid!

KAYO: Sorry, John, could you repeat that?

What sort of help does this guy need?

Mr... Aezethril would like us to...

"free him from the Hall of Heroes

and save Cavern Quest from utter ruin."

His words, not mine.

Isn't Cavern Quest that game Alan is always playing?

Er, I don't just play Cavern Quest, OK?

My character is a legend on the gamer forums.

I'm this close to beating the whole thing.

- This close! - Maybe virtually.

But this new game park is a real place with a real situation.

- Even better. When do I start? - Sorry, Alan.

Until we finish repairing the Space Elevator,

you're not leaving Thunderbird Five.

And with the others out on mission,

Thunderbird Shadow is our fastest response.

Wait, you mean Kayo gets to try the real live game

before anyone else?

This is a rescue, Alan, plain and simple.

I won't be playing any games.

See you in the sky.

[MUSIC]

Five. Four.

Three. Two. One.

KAYO: Thunderbird Shadow is go.

I'm coming in now, Mr... Aezethril, is it?

Indeed, mortal vanquisher.

Aezethril the Wise,

or Wise Aezethril for short.

Right. One moment, please.

Alan, what's this guy's deal?

You mean the whole wizard thing?

Aezethril has been like that since he first created Cavern Quest.

- So he never talks normally? - Nope.

But if I spent all my time running a game,

I'd probably act the same way.

Kayo to Thunderbird Five.

The Chaos Crew is here.

FAB. We'll alert the GDF.

Aezethril?

- Aezethril! - Over here, brave hero!

Hang on. I'll get you out.

[STRAINS] [GROANS]

Ugh.

Let's move!

Kayo, what's going on down there?

We just missed our exit.

I fear my damaged wand is to blame.

It controls everything inside these caverns.

- And now it's tearing them apart. - Is there another way out?

Yes, at the final chamber.

But woe, those rogues activated the quest.

They wish to steal the Holotrix, a device of great power.

You mean the machine that makes all the holograms in the game?

The Hood could hide an army if he had one of those.

I've alerted the GDF, but according to these readings,

the game park may collapse before they arrive.

FAB. We'll beat Fuse and Havoc

to the Holotrix if we can, but rescue is our top priority.

Aezethril, how quickly can you guide us to the end?

- Faster than a collax with fritzy dust. - Good... I think.

Choose a weapon. The Mallet of Byneton.

The Axe of Huigi. The Sword of Gethowra.

I suppose this will do.

Three lives each. We must not waste them.

Oh... and what shall I call you?

- Kayo. - Hmm.

Wouldn't you prefer a more regal title?

Perhaps Lilifur the Brave?

Um, "Kayo" will do fine. [RUMBLING]

Then let us hurry, noble Kayo,

before these caverns destroy us both.

[ROARING] [GASPS]

Ugh! [BEEPING]

Not a good start.

How much longer?

You wanted to play the game, didn't you?

I'm sick of these dead ends. How about one little shortcut?

Hey, enough with blowing things up. Ah!

[LAUGHS] How'd it do that?

This wand controls the whole game.

I wonder what else it could do?

Ah-ha-ha-ha!

[MUSIC]

- [PANTING] Did we lose it? - Nay!

The blogwart is at our heels.

Does it matter? Holograms can't hurt us.

But they can lower our health.

And if we lose, the quest returns us to the start.

This could be a very short rescue.

- Alan? - Yeah, kinda.

That's my Sage Knight character from the virtual game.

I found a way to integrate Alan's character

into the game through the Holotrix.

Aloneus the Sage Knight at your service.

[RUMBLING]

We must hurry! My caverns grow worse.

This is gonna be epic!

Easy for you to say. I have no idea what I'm doing.

Just think of it like combat training.

The game rewards questers that fight smarter,

- not harder. - Aaah!

Take heed!

Aaah!

More blogwarts?

[BEEPING]

Aezethril!

Whoa! Someone's not playing around.

- Are you hurt? - 'Tis but a quest wound.

[RUMBLING]

Oh. Check it out!

Kayo's moves just landed us a shortcut.

Before we enter, let us summon our courage

with the Cavern Quest oath.

I thought you'd never ask.

With mystic blades and fiery awe, we pledge our honour best.

Many shall fall, for only a noble few will pass the test.

BOTH: So, come our worthy heroes

and brave forth the Cavern Quest!

[THEY LAUGH]

That is awesome!

Then again, this could be a very long rescue.

Behold! Candescent Cavern.

Aw, come on. Blogwarts again?

I was going to add more creatures next week!

- Shh, keep it down. - At present, blogwarts

- are the only ones! - Shh!

Fight smart, not hard, remember.

See how they're avoiding those torches?

We can use that to our advantage.

What do you have in mind?

Hark! Vile creatures!

I am Aezethril,

Conjurer of the Seven Realms!

I brought you into this world and I can...

- take you out of it. - Now!

[ROARING]

- Yes! - Huzzah!

Boo-ya, blogwarts!

[VEHICLE APPROACHING]

Huh? I know that engine!

Aezethril, stay here.

This is most ill-fated.

It's got to be that way.

Or maybe that way. [SHE GROANS]

- Why doesn't this place have a map? - Hey, where'd they come from?

Looting through game parks now, Havoc?

Are you really that desperate?

- Hand me a detonator. - But you said...

Just do it. [BEEPING]

- Argh! - What?

Oh, yeah, I'm a hologram.

[HE LAUGHS]

Not... a... word. [RUMBLING]

[GROWLS]

The blogwarts, they are coming! Help!

My friends... help!

Help!

- Aezethril! - Aaah!

Go. I'll handle these two.

[WAR CRY]

Oh, yeah, I'm a hologram.

Argh!

[BEEPING]

You were saying?

[BEEPING]

Hey! Get away from my wizard!

[BEEPING]

- Thanks, Aezethril. - Likewise, noble Kayo.

- Alan! - I'm OK.

No, you're not. We are down to one health point each.

Thanks for this. It's really coming in handy.

Ah. Fate...

- has dealt us a sordid blow. - I'll say.

There's no way we'll beat them to the Holotrix.

Aezethril, we've got to reach that final chamber.

There is but one path left.

Ah, not the Chamber of Tilisook! I'd rather fight 100 blogwarts.

I thought you were this close to beating the game?

I am.

Kind of. This chamber takes you all the way to the end.

- I-I just never figured it out. - Fear not.

I will guide us through the Riddle of Fire.

Oh, yeah, for a second I forgot we had a wizard on our side.

Or maybe not.

Aezethril? Can you hear us?

Time's started. We only get a minute to solve this thing.

And, oh, yeah, those guys.

See? This is why I don't play games.

[GROWLS]

Ugh! Clock's ticking.

- Please tell me you can read that? - No problem.

I've been stuck in this cave so many times

I can read every language from Argdal to Zilibish.

I'm suddenly glad you love gaming.

Now, let's see.

One for the rising sun, two for the drop.

Three for the setting sun, four for the top.

Aaah!

Rising and setting sun?

- That could be east and west. - Oh!

Which means "top" and "drop" are north and south.

Time's almost up, Kayo.

Whatever you're thinking, do it now.

East.

South.

[TIMER BEEPING]

West.

North!

[TIMER BEEPING]

- Huzzah! - Aezethril!

[RUMBLING]

It appears you did not need me after all.

I can't believe it. We're at the end of the game!

The final cavern awaits.

[TYRES SCREECHING]

[LAUGHS]

Look at those jewels.

Don't forget, the real treasure is up there.

[RUMBLING]

They've almost got the Holotrix.

Ha! The Great Guardian will see to them.

Great Guardian?

[RUMBLING]

[MUSIC]

Oh, you've got to be kidding me!

- Look at the size of that thing! - Keep moving!

Ha! Missed!

Aaah!

[FIZZING]

My quest controls are breaking apart.

An explosion is imminent!

It's time we finish this.

- Does the Guardian have a weak spot? - Up there.

The jewel on the back of its neck.

Strike there and the Guardian shall be defeated.

Go for the legs. Once it's down, we'll attack the weak spot.

Got it.

Huh? It didn't work.

Kayo, watch out!

Alan!

[BEEPING]

I'm... I'm out of the game!

- Can John send you back? - Maybe to the beginning,

but you're in the final chamber that is about to explode.

No more games! This ends now!

Fly, mighty Kayo! May your aim be true!

With mystic blades and fiery awe, we pledge our honour best.

Many shall fall, for only a noble few will pass the test.

So come, all worthy heroes,

and brave forth the Cavern Quest.

[GRUNTS]

[CELESTIAL VOCALISING]

Aezethril, hurry!

[PANTS] I'm trying!

I've got you.

- Fuse, get the Holotrix. - No way I'm touching that!

Argh!

Come on, then!

[EXPLOSION]

[COUGHING]

[MUSIC]

Thank you, Kayo. Thank you for everything.

That didn't sound very wizardly... Aezethril?

Call me Sylvester. I've had enough fantasy for one day.

Game... over. [CHUCKLES]

THE HOOD: Let me get this straight.

You two went behind my back to steal the Holotrix?

Would have been a nice surprise, yeah?

I already had a plan in place to steal that.

That would have been nice to know.

From now on, you exceed my expectations

or there will be consequences!

- Yo... - Not... a... word.

[MUSIC]

Oh, I was this close to beating the game.

- This close. - You'll get to try again soon, Alan.

Aezethril's rebuilding the game park.

Sounds like fun. We should stop in and play some time.

Hold on. Fun? Play?

Do you hear the words coming out of your mouth?

I can't be the serious one all the time... ...Aloneus.

Welcome to Cavern Quest.
