Up in space, the Scorpion Stinger slithered through space, heading towards the Earth. On board, the Scorpion Stinger, in the control room, Trakeena, flanked by Villimax, Keglar, Queen Chrysalis, and the Team Rocket TRio(Jessie, James, and Meowth), watched the planet on the monitor. Trakeena said, "So, the Earth is back. Now I can finally conquer the home planet of those Galaxy Rangers, as revenge for what they did to my father. Earth's going to wish it never left the Lost Galaxy when I'm done."

Just then, an injured and still smoking, Deviot entered the control room and called out, "Trakeena!" She and her other loyal followers turned to see the robot as he put his hands together, "How can I ever thank you for saving me from the clutches of that space pirate?" Villimax and Team Rocket all gave Trakeena a knowing nod, which she returned, "When I tried to trap the Earth in the Lost Galaxy for you, I accidentally got trapped there too. Once there that Captain Mutiny kindnapped me and forced me to work for him. But you have freed me!" He used his left hand to clutch his right arm, "How can I ever repay you, my queen?"

Trakeena began to say, "Good gracious. Your loyalty is overwhelming." She then glared at him and shouted, "For a traitor!" Villimax pulled out his sword and pointed it at Deviot.

Deviot panically raised his hands and insisted, "No! I live only to serve you, Trakeena."

Meowth laughed, "Nice try Deviot. We overheard your conversation to the bear, the twerp, and the rest of their friends before you opened the portal to the Lost Galaxy."

Jessie told him, "You remember that. How you told them you were tired of taking orders from others and were planning to use the power of the Galaxy Book to usurp Trakeena and rule the universe yourself."

James smirked, "We heard it and we told Trakeena everything when we made it back to the Scorpion Stinger."

Trakeena turned to Villimax and said, "Destroy him! Before I get a headache."

Villimax charged in and swung at Deviot's head, from the left, only for the robot to duck down to dodge. When he came back up, Villimax swung his sword from the right, and Deviot caught the blade with his hands. However, Villimax added more power to break through and slash Deviot in the chest. As he cried out in pain, Villimax spun around and used his left foot to kick Deviot in the stomach and send him flying into the wall. Falling to the floor, Deviot begged, "Please!"

Villimax just growled, freaking Deviot out. The robot jumped to his legs and began to run down the hall. Meowth shouted, "After him!" Villimax and Team Rocket pursued.

Deviot had made his way to the cargo bay, clutching his arms. As he rounded the corner he saw The Cocoon and shouted, "Ah. The Cocoon! The source of unparalleled power!" He clutched his right side with his hand and slowly walked to The Cocoon, stumbling into a barrel on the left, before continuing, "Its magnificent energy will finally be mine." As he got close, he used the gauntlet on his right hand to fire laser blasts, which broke the chains around The Cocoon, "Beautiful." He held out his left hand, used his right to clutch his side, and slowly walked towards the now unsealed Cocoon, "I'm going to give you more than a headache, my queen!" Deviot let out a maniacal laugh, "Trakeena had her chance! Now I will show her no mercy!" He reached The Cocoon and was about to touch it with both hands. However, just then, Villimax appeared from behind him, grabbed him by the right shoulder, and pulled him back to face him. Villimax delivered a left punch to Deviot's gut. The robot let out a grunt of pain, before using his left hand to knock Villimax's fist away from his gut. He then tried to slam the back of his right hand into Villimax's face. Unfortunately for him, Villimax grabbed his right arm with his left hand, while using his other hand to grab Deviot by the shoulder. He then pulled Deviot's arm hard and twisted it into a lock. As Deviot began to let out agonizing cries, Trakeena, Keglar, Team Rocket, and Chrysalis all entered from the hallway on his right, laughing. Turning to them Deviot shouted, "Trakeena, call him off!" Trakeena just kept laughing, as Villimax pulled Deviot further away from The Cocoon and then delivered several punches to his chest. The last punch, a left punch to the chest, caused sparks to shoot out of Deviot and sent him stumbling back, withering in pain.
