             Afterwards, the Zodiacs joined their hands together and went to the next planet in order to find the Virgo pearl. They saw the Sargas Planet and went downwards before landing safely. After the landing, the group found themselves in the deserted and grassy wasteland of Sargas. The wasteland has many hills and caves and whose inhabitants are the scorpions. The planet is also ruled by the king of Sargas, who loved jewels, especially pearls.

"What kind of place is this?!" Gertie shouted excitedly.

"The Sargas Planet, home of the scorpions," said Harold, "We're here to look for the Virgo pearl."

"I wonder if there's a castle nearby," said Betty.

"There's no castles, Betty. Let's look for the pearl. I bet it's in the possession of that scorpion king."

"That's right!" said Heather.

"What's his name, anyway?" Horacio asked.

"The scorpion king's name is Scorprayet," Harold continued, "Follow my lead."

The rest of the Zodiacs nodded in agreement as they went with their friend to look for the Virgo pearl. Unknown to them, two scorpions are watching them through their binoculars, looking for an individual who is on their possession of the pearls. They looked around as they saw through Betty's pocket. The scorpions noticed that the pearl is the Cancer pearl and went into the ground where they encounter a maroon-colored scorpion named Scorprayet. Scorprayet wore a crown with three olive green peridots and the Virgo pearl. He loved jewels and always has a obsession with them. The two scorpions who are his servants went to his room and explained the news.

"We have news, your highness! There are individuals carrying pearls!" said the first scorpion servant.

"Oh!" Scorprayet exclaimed as he stopped relaxing with the jewels, "Individuals with pearls, huh?"

"One of them is the Cancer pearl! And also the Aries, Taurus, Gemini and Leo pearls!" said the second scorpion servant.

Scorprayet gave himself a charismatic smile, "Ah, those pearls are the jewels for my collection of jewels!" He chuckled evilly, "Send the troops."


On the surface, the Zodiacs are on their way to the cave, with the intention to get the Virgo pearl. In the top of a hill, a army of scorpions appeared and saw the pearls as the perfect items for their king. They jumped into action and went towards the group, "Let's snatch those pearls, boys!" said the scorpion general.

"Who are those guys?" Julian asked.

"Scorpions?" Harold asked before gasping in surprise, "Scorpions! Run, guys!"

The Zodiacs started to run away from the army of scorpions, who are about to kill them with spears. They kept running as they all went to the ground before confronting the group of friends and started to attack them, "Hey! Stop it! Get away from me!" said Harold.

"Yuck! They're disgusting!" said Sarah.

"Not cool, man!" said Heather.

"Back off, you ugly bugs!" Garret attacked them with his hockey stick.

"Get into her pocket!" The scorpion soldier threw his fellow soldier into Betty's pocket. After going through, the soldier noticed the Cancer pearl.

"Get away from me! Get away, I say!" said Betty as she stomped the scorpions to death, before finding herself feeling uncomfortable when suddenly...

POP!

The second scorpion soldier pulled her pants off and blew a raspberry at her before running away. Julian is trying to escape from the scorpions, who are trying to remove his jeans off in order to snatch the "Pearl" that he was hiding. Horrified, he started to crawl away only to lose his pants in process. Heather is trying to run away from the scorpions as well. She shoved them as she saw one of them grabbing her by the ankle.
