The crafts scatter. The Mysterons ships, genuinely real to our reality and existence begin swarming. Gigantically huge powered green energy as a form of transportation. They beginning firing energy bolts at the Angels. They miss!

Destiny:

All Angels, give them everything we've got!

The four begin firing endlessly, endlessly at them. No effect. The two Albatross begin firing at more of the incoming crafts. The Helicopters commence the attack. Massive montage of the Spectrum personnel in their ships, tensing their faces as they spin their crafts, firing rapidly and repeatedly at them. Dodging, firing, spinning, zapping. The Mysteron ships are too strong in the force. Dozens upon dozens upon dozens of crafts, beginning to zap and destroy. They battle in the war. The crafts fighting and dodging billions and billions of arms fired from the skies. The readings on Lieutenant Green's monitor is too detailed and explosive. Captain Ochre's Hummingbird has been hit. Her craft spins out of control with smoke pouring from the back out. The next to fall. All the Captains and Angels are on Green's monitor.

Lieutenant Green:

Colonel, there are hundreds out there!

Captain Ochre:

Colonel! I've been hit! I'm falling!

Colonel White:

Serena, evacuate all unnecessary personnel. Get them to the escape units!

Captain Scarlet:

Colonel White! We still can't find the bombs! And we only have two minutes before they blow.

Colonel White:

Scarlet! There will be no time to locate the other three now. Just get rid of the other two.

Captain Scarlet:

Sir, I can throw them overboard onto the ships if they get close enough!

Colonel White:

Right, Scarlet! Do it!

Captain Scarlet:

S.I.G.

Colonel White:

There goes a brave man!

Lieutenant Green:

Yeah. Anyone can be brave if they're indestructible.

Colonel White:

That's enough Lieutenant!

Scarlet then bolts out of Engineering through the corridors to head out on deck.

Captain Blue:

Colonel White, we can't hold them! Nothing can touch them!

POW! POW! POW! Blue desperately fires at another ship and a green electric ray fires! Missing him by a fraction! An Albatross swarms into the blood bath. BANG! Indigo is hit!

Captain Indigo:

I've been hit! I'm going down! I can't eject!

His Albatross plummets to the Earth, and Magenta sees him, dashing it.

Captain Magenta:

Hay! Ian! I'm coming for you!

He swarms down but a Mysterons ship fires its charge as Blue sees him about to be hit!

Captain Blue:

MARIO, LOOK OUT!

ZAM! KABOOM! Destruction! Not much of a chance for the two Captains.

The Albatrosses are down!

The Mysteron ships swarm towards Skybase, ignoring the other Spectrum crafts, hardly being touched by the firing. They begin to slow as they descend further. The remaining Angels swarm towards them! They fire again and again and again! Nothing! The ships fire their electric bolts at all four Angels!

Angels! Get back!

Blue's Hummingbird fires at the ships again! Nothing touched. Regardless, the Mysteron ship flashes an electric bolt at the Angels and zaps all four of them down!

Harmony:

We've been hit!

Symphony:

I can't eject! I can't eject!

Melody:

Neither can I. We're falling! Quick!

Destiny:

Angel Leader to Skybase, we've been hit, we can't!

Radio communications cease!

Colonel White:

Hello! Destiny! Destiny! They don't stand a chance out there. We're evacuating Skybase! All remaining personnel are to retreat! I repeat, retreat!

Captain Blue:

We can't give up Colonel! You'd never surrender sir! I'm not giving up without a fight!

Captain Indigo:

Neither am I!

The remaining Hummingbirds fly into towards the ships! The Martian crafts then begin hovering over Skybase. Scarlet is lifted onto the deck. The bombs are about to detonate! Ten seconds! The ships then hover around Skybase! 5! 4! Scarlet throws them at two of the ships! BANG! BANG! KABOOM! KABOOM! They are destroyed! The ships fry their electric bolts at Skybase! ZAM! ZAM! BOOM! BOOM! Scarlet is thrown to the ground, rolling as he tries to control himself. BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! The remaining bombs in Engineering implode! The remaining Mysteron ships begin firing at Skybase! ZAM! ZAM! Scarlet's radio swings into position.

Captain Scarlet:

DESTINY! DESTINY! WHERE ARE YOU, I CAN'T SEE YOU! DESTINY! DESTINY!

ZAM! A bolt fries Captain Scarlet! BOOM! BOOM! Skybase explodes! Beginning to slide to one side as the engines begin failing.
