Synopsis
--------

In order to let Nagisa rest after she is exhausted by the battle with 
the Dilos-Theta, Iczer One puts her in the Iczer Robo.

During that time, Cepia, who has been appointed Commander of Cotuwolf's 
transition fortress Nova, has descended to Earth.

Nagisa stubbornly refuses to become her partner, so Iczer One gives 
Nagisa a bracelet to protect her, and then goes to spy on the Nova.

During that time, Nagisa meets Sayoko and her mother. At the same time, 
Iczer One being pulled into another dimension, fights two Voids. 
Influenced by the battle between the Fuji-2 and Nova, the other 
dimension collapses, and Iczer One, restored to the proper dimension, 
defeats the Voids. However, her younger sister Iczer Two reveals 
herself and Iczer One is overwhelmed by her power and injured.

Meanwhile, Nagisa is being surrounded by monsters. Sayoko's mother 
is taken over by a Bedem and turns into a monster; Nagisa tries her 
hardest to protect Sayoko with a barrier.

But when Nagisa prays for the power to protect Sayoko, Iczer Robo 
appears with a glitter...

Story
-----

A mysterious object makes its way through space. The shape of that object 
is suggestive of a huge pyramid; it is Cotuwolf's transition fortress 
"Nova". Nova immediately approaches Earth and descends. Destroying 
the buildings on the Earth's surface, Nova lands while crushing them. 
The command hall inside Nova...

CREW            Nova has completed descent.

CEPIA           Good; collect the Dilos-Theta at once. Prepare the Voids' 
                sorties; do not allow Iczer One to approach. Collect the 
                Dilos to the aft analysis room.

Cepia is on the command deck.

CEPIA           At last I've come... Cobalt, without fail I will make 
                your enemy pay. 

Iczer One stands in the ruined city. She stares fixedly at Nova.

ICZER ONE       Cotuwolf's transition fortress... what in the world 
                do they intend to do?

Iczer One's thoughts are uneasy.

ICZER ONE       Impossible...!? Big Gold!

Fight, Iczer One!! Act-II: The Challenge of Izcer Sigma

ICZER ONE       Nagisa... Nagisa!

Nagisa was sleeping inside Iczer Robo, and wakes up to Iczer One's 
voice.

NAGISA          Wah!!

Nagisa wakes up and, getting a grasp on her situation, cries out 
in a surprised voice.

NAGISA          Th -- This!! It's terrible, you stuffed me into a robot
                again, didn't you!

Nagisa confronts Iczer One.

ICZER ONE       Because you were terribly exhausted, I let you 
                rest here.

Iczer One explains.

ICZER ONE       Nagisa, I will infiltrate Cotuwolf's fortress with 
                Iczer Robo: won't you please fight with me?

NAGISA          No, let me out!

ICZER ONE       Eh? Why, Nagisa?

NAGISA          (Mockingly) Nagisa! Don't call me 'Nagisa' so familiarly. 
                I must have told you I wouldn't fight; at any rate, let 
                me out of here!

ICZER ONE       Nagisa!! Forgive me, but you fought Dilos. Weren't 
                you fully synchronized with me that time?

NAGISA          What are you talking about! Whose fault is it that 
                I've become like this. Well, if you don't let me go, 
                I simply won't allow it!!

ICZER ONE       Why is it no use? Nagisa...

NAGISA          Don't speak to me so familiarly!

ICZER ONE       Yes...

NARRATOR        At about that time, the Defense Joint Army Far East 
                Base, opposing the unknown, aggressive enemy, has forced 
                a very unusual opposing government. Earth orbital station 
                W3 has discovered a huge object behind the moon, and has 
                confirmed that a series of incidents has been caused by 
                that thing. However, they didn't know that the evil hand 
                of the aggressor, Cotuwolf, was gradually beginning to 
                stretch towards the world by means of frightful monster 
                weapons. Inside a storehouse at the Far East Base.

STAFF MEMBER    Hm?

One staff member is working there, but upon feeling something strange, 
he turns around. Suddenly, a Bedem comes flying out from behind him, and 
grabs the staff member's head. The staff member ends up infected by the 
parasite, without resistance. In the analysis room inside Nova, the 
analysis of the recovered Dilos-Theta is done. Cepia goes to Cobalt's 
body which, recovered from that Dilos, is laid to rest in that room.

CEPIA           Cobalt's body?

WOMAN           Lord Cepia... I wish you wouldn't go see...

CEPIA           I don't care.

Cepia walks into the room.

CEPIA           Cobalt... AH!!

Looking at the body, Cepia gasps.

CEPIA           Ah...

While desperately restraining her overflowing tears, Cepia salutes 
Cobalt's body and leaves. In her own room, Cepia is overwhelmed by 
grief. But news of Sir Violet's arrival comes to Cepia there.

SIR VIOLET      You have said your farewells to Cobalt?

Sir Violet has called Cepia to appear in the command hall.

CEPIA           Y -- Yes, Sir Violet.

SIR VIOLET      Cepia, you are the Commander of this transition fortress, 
                Nova, therefore, to perform the destruction of Iczer One, 
                you will be the commander of Iczer Sigma.

CEPIA           I am very sorry, I didn't mean to cry any more. But the 
                sight of poor Cobalt...

SIR VIOLET      Turn that sadness and anger completely against Iczer One. 
                You understand, don't you, Cepia...

CEPIA           Yes! Without fail: I will destroy Iczer One. Then I will 
                have Cobalt's revenge.

Cepia answers Sir Violet purposefully.

SIR VIOLET      Big Gold has already begun to act. Soon she will choose 
                your partner.

Sir Violet speaks with some significance.

CEPIA           My partner...

Nagisa alights from Iczer Robo with Iczer One.

NAGISA          Wh -- What! This outfit...!

ICZER ONE       That' s something to protect you. I'm going to 
                infiltrate the fortress to find out what Cotuwolf's up 
                to. Until then, Nagisa, you must fight alone.

NAGISA          Fight, you say... I can't do that...

Iczer One leaves Nagisa and goes to invade Cotuwolf's transition 
fortress.

NAGISA          Why did you choose me...! ?

ICZER ONE       Because I love you, Nagisa.

And, saying that, Iczer One quickly teleports.

NAGISA          It's strange... Completely deserted...

After parting from Iczer One, Nagisa wanders aimlessly around the city 
streets, becoming uneasy at the strange surroundings.

NAGISA          There really is... Nobody...?

Again Nagisa walks around. But, discovering a single person, she 
suddenly comes to a halt. The person is a policeman.

POLICEMAN       What are you doing hanging around? This area is a 
                No Trespassing district.

NAGISA          N -- No Trespassing...

POLICEMAN       You don't appear too honest... Please come with me.

The policeman grasps Nagisa's arm. Nagisa is reluctant. But then, 
Nagisa's body glows, and a line of light pierces the policeman's body. 
The policeman's body, struck by the line of light, suddenly begins 
to swell. Then at last, innumerable tentacles pierce the body and 
come flying out. Nagisa is enveloped by the tentacles. However, the 
bracelet on her right arm gives off light; independent of 
Nagisa's wishes, her right arm lifts, and a beam shot from the 
bracelet shatters the monster in a single flash.

NAGISA          No, no!!

Nagisa stares at her own right arm, but because of unease and fear, 
she runs away from that place.

NAGISA          I... I said I won't fight...!

Finished running around aimlessly, Nagisa has returned to her 
own house.

NAGISA          I'm such a fool... Coming back home... Neither Mom 
                nor Dad exists any more.

Then, Nagisa turns around, startled at hearing a sound.

SAYOKO          Mama!! Mama!!

A little girl is clinging to her exhausted mother.

NAGISA          Ah, you two... Impossible...

SAYOKO          Mama! Help Mama!! Mama will die!

The little girl appeals to her desperately, but Nagisa just stares 
vacantly. At about that time, Iczer One is planning a way to break into 
Cotuwolf's transition fortress. However, the scenery around Iczer One 
changes suddenly.

ICZER ONE       Another dimension... I'm imprisoned...

To prevent Iczer One's approach, Cotuwolf has broken into another 
dimension. Then, a new type of Void comes attacking Iczer One.

ICZER ONE       It's fast!!

Iczer One cries out when she sees the movements of the new type of 
Void. Iczer One searches for the hidden Void. Void flies out from before 
her very feet, comes stabbing at her, and disappears again.

ICZER ONE       where is it!?

Iczer One senses its appearance behind her, turns around, and crosses 
swords with the descending Void. A room in the Nova fortress...

CEPIA           Void is restraining Iczer One. I don't think any 
                number of rascals could easily escape from that 
                dimension.

SIR VIOLET      Splendid, Cepia. Come here... Please observe... 
                Your partner will be Iczer Two.

CEPIA           This...

ICZER TWO       Good morning, Cepia...

Cepia is startled when Iczer Two suddenly begins to speak.

ICZER TWO       My lovely partner -- we'll get along very well, 
                won't we?

CEPIA           Y -- Yes, pleased to meet you.

SIR VIOLET      Heh, heh, heh... You look frightened, Cepia. If 
                Iczer Two, and then Iczer Sigma, begin to awaken, then 
                with regard to Iczer One, she is already no enemy.

ICZER TWO       Cepia, it will be enjoyable when we synchronize 
                together... In my otherself, Iczer Sigma....

Nagisa is talking with the mother and child she helped.

NAGISA          So, Sayoko's father is...

SAYOKO'S MOTHER The people in charge ended up turning into such terrible 
                things as that one... I don't know what to make of it any 
                more... It is like waking up after running with Sayoko 
                in a dream.

The mother speaks quietly.

MOTHER          Um... Do you believe me...?

NAGISA          I believe you... The same thing happened to my parents...

MOTHER          Your parents, too!

NAGISA          Sayoko was serious, saying her mother would die.

MOTHER          Well... This child!

NAGISA          You're fine now, right?

SAYOKO          Yes!

At that time, the Defense Joint Forces Fuji Base is under attack by 
Cotuwolf. The crew members being infested by the secretly infiltrating 
Cotuwolf monsters, one after another the bases begin to be destroyed 
inside, No kind of human weapon is of any use against them. The monsters 
continue to invade, while continuing to infect and destroy. The Captain 
enters the bridge of the Fuji-2.

CAPTAIN         From here the Fuji-2 will launch to attack the enemy 
                fortress!

VOICE           Fuji Base! Will we go to try to save the base?

VOICE           What in the world is the enemy, when and how did they 
                infiltrate?

VOICE           Damned beasts!

CAPTAIN         This is an order. As I see it, the Fuji-2 must not share 
                the same fate of the base.

VOICE           But, Captain... The control center's been destroyed. 
                The launch gate will not open.

CAPTAIN         I don't care. Ascend as is! Main engine, start.

The Fuji-2's engine begins to start.

CAPTAIN         Fuji-2 -- Launch!!

While tearing up the forest, the shape of the Fuji-2 begins to appear. 
When the Fuji-2's tail ascends, the warship bridge steadies.

VOICE           Launch all manned war planes!

The port gunwale catapult is opened, and from there the Fuji-2's manned 
war planes are launched in rapid succession -- ST-25s and Concretes.

VOICE           20 seconds until contact with enemy fortress.

CAPTAIN         The surface troops?

VOICE           Yes, sir -- the surface troops have completed 
                preparations for withstanding thorough assault -- 
                they're only waiting for the arrival of the Fuji-2.

CAPTAIN         Good!

The Concretes fly, completely surrounding the Fuji-2; the Fuji-2 has 
the air of being a fortress in space. Iczer One is crossing swords with 
Void. But once again, Void hides itself. The appearance of the other 
dimension changes.

ICZER ONE If    I don't escape quickly from this dimension...!!

Iczer One is impatient to escape from the other dimension.

ICZER ONE       Hah!

Sensing something behind her, Iczer-1 turns around and fires a beam, 
Void falls from the upper sky, advancing while returning the beam 
Iczer One shot. Void absorbs that beam and returns fire. Iczer One 
nimbly dodges that, and jumps. In the sky, Iczer One and Void fiercely 
exchange blows. Iczer One lands and sends a counterattack against Void. 
Void, who approaches brandishing a sword, is smashed by Iczer One's 
fist... Void's face twists in pain. Beams are sprayed from its body 
where it caved in because of Iczer One's hand, then at last Void 
explodes. However, the appearance of the other dimension changes again. 
Iczer One goes "en garde" with a gasp. With the sound of footsteps, 
a dark shadow approaches, aiming at Iczer One. The dark shadow strikes 
at Iczer One's body, and quickly flies up and lands in a tree.

ICZER ONE       Two of them, after all!

The dark shadow is another Void. The Fuji-2 approaches Nova and fires 
a circle laser.

VOICE           Cold-line-gun -- Fire!

VOICE           Ground troops, cold-line-gun -- fire.

They begin a continuous counterattack from the surface and the sky.

Resting with Sayoko and her mother, Nagisa is sleeping too from heavy 
exhaustion, but she wakes up when startled by Sayoko. As if running 
away from Nagisa, Sayoko climbs up to the second floor.

NAGISA          Sayoko, you mustn't go up there.

SAYOKO          Huh? Why?

NAGISA          Well... On the second floor, are Mama's and Papa's...

SAYOKO          There's nothing!!

NAGISA          Sayoko!!

Nagisa timidly ascends to the second floor.

SAYOKO          Hey...

As Sayoko said, there is nothing in the rooms.

NAGISA          Nothing! No corpses or anything, why...

They step into the room. But a hand appears from the floor, grabbing 
Nagisa's ankle and knocking her down. Nagisa tries to get out in a 
hurry, but she is caught again by a hand that appears from the floor.

SAYOKO          Sister!! Sister!!

Sayoko tries desperately to open the door. Nagisa is caught painfully 
in the monster's hand; discovering the monster's mouth bearing down on 
her from the darkness in front of her, she screams in fear. Below, 
a monster's evil hand presses Sayoko's mother, on the first floor. 
The monster that caught Nagisa begins to extend its tongue from its 
wide open mouth. Nagisa asks Iczer One for help with the drooling 
monster.

ICZER ONE'S VOICE Fight, Nagisa, you can do it!

SAYOKO          Sister! Sister!!

When she hears the voices of Sayoko and Iczer One, the bracelet on 
her right arm shines, and shatters the monster's hand. With desperate 
thoughts, Nagisa raises her right hand, fires a beam from the bracelet, 
and buries the monster.

SAYOKO          Sister!!

The door opens and Sayoko comes flying in.

NAGISA          (panting) Sayoko...

Nagisa is out of breath because of strain and exhaustion.

SAYOKO          Are you OK, Sister?

Sayoko looks worriedly into Nagisa's face.

NAGISA          OK... I'm OK...

Upon saying so, Nagisa hugs Sayoko tightly..

Fuji-2's counterattack is continuing to oppose the Nova.

CEPIA           Obnoxious aliens... Smash them!

Cepia orders a counterattack from the command deck inside Nova. With an 
eerie, vibrating sound, Nova begins to glow here and there; a line of 
light begins to shoot forth from the clouds in the upper sky, like 
lightning.

CAPTAIN         Wh -- What is it!!

The mysterious lines of light rain on the Fuji-2. At its circumference, 
the Concretes and Perfect Fujis, struck by those lines of light, are 
destroyed. The ground forces also explode one after the other, due to 
the strange lines of light.

CAPTAIN         C -- Crazy, with only this attack...!

The Fuji-2 also gets hit by a direct attack of the strange lines of 
light, and blows up at once.

CEPIA           Hmph! Fools.

Cepia grumbles on the command deck.

CREW            Lord Cepia, this city attack has unbalanced the other 
                dimension we created, and Iczer One has escaped.

CEPIA           I don't care, it's too late...

Meanwhile, when the other dimension has disappeared, taking advantage 
of the crack she has seen in Void, Iczer One succeeds in destroying Void. 
A single beam attacks Iczer One, who has just destroyed Void. A person's 
shadow appears in the explosion in front of Iczer One.

ICZER TWO       Hello, big sister. I am Iczer Two, your little sister...

ICZER ONE       Iczer Two! Little sister!?

Iczer One is startled.

ICZER TWO       I am the daughter of Big Gold, therefore, your little 
                sister.

ICZER ONE       Big Gold! That can't be right!!

ICZER TWO       I was created to kill you... Only for that...

Upon saying that, Iczer Two holds out her hand, whereupon a ball of 
light appears over her hand. Then that ball of light changes into a 
laser sword.

ICZER TWO       Come on, Iczer One!!

Iczer Two grasps the sword and jumps at Iczer One. Iczer One and Iczer Two 
both jump into the sky and cross swords. Iczer Two lands nimbly and shoots 
a beam at Iczer One. Then Iczer Two slashes at Iczer One, who has dodged 
the beam, and sends her sword flying.

ICZER TWO       Heh, heh, heh... Don't underestimate me, Iczer One -- 
                Ignoramus!!

Iczer Two slashes at Iczer One. After exchanging fierce beams, in one 
instant Iczer One is hit by Iczer Two's beam, and thrown against 
the wall.

ICZER TWO       What's the matter, Iczer One? Can't you stand up?

Iczer Two speaks condescendingly.

ICZER TWO       Get up! I hate weaklings!! If you don't stand up, 
                I'll slap you!

Iczer One stands up desperately.

ICZER TWO       That's the spirit, big sister. I hate murder.

Iczer Two shoots a beam, overjoyed to have cornered Iczer One. Iczer One 
dodges that by jumping, and runs away to the building's roof, shooting at 
the pursuing Iczer Two. Iczer Two dodges just in front of it, and shoots 
a beam with anger. The beam spreads out and hits Iczer One's shoulder.

ICZER ONE       Ah---!

SAYOKO'S MOTHER Sayoko... Sayoko... Sayoko...

Sayoko's mother, infected by a monster, draws near to Nagisa and 
Sayoko.

SAYOKO          Mama!! What's wrong!! Mama!! Mama!!

NAGISA          Sayoko!! Your mother... Your mother is...

SAYOKO          Mama!!

One after another, monsters appear around the two.

SAYOKO          Sister, I'm scared!!

Iczer Two approaches the defeated Iczer One.

ICZER TWO       This is it, isn't it... Iczer One.

Upon saying that, Iczer Two grabs Iczer One's wounded shoulder.

ICZER ONE       Ow!!

More and more powerfully, Iczer Two lifts Iczer One.

ICZER ONE       Ah---!!

The monsters press Nagisa and Sayoko.

SAYOKO          Sister!!

NAGISA          Don't look!! Shut your eyes!

(To herself) I want to protect! I want to protect this child, at least... 
No matter what, I mustn't fail to protect Sayoko!

While Nagisa prays for that, surrounded by the approaching monsters, 
the bracelet on her arm glitters.

NAGISA          Power... I want power... Very, very strong power! 
                Strong power!!

When Nagisa yells that, her body begins to shine brightly. The 
surrounding monsters fly apart when struck by that light. Nagisa 
opens her eyes in the light, and Iczer Robo appears in there.

NAGISA          Iczer Robo!!

Due to Iczer Robo's appearance, Nagisa's determination to fight to 
protect Sayoko is strengthened.

ICZER TWO       Iczer Robo...

Iczer Two has noticed Iczer Robo's appearance.

ICZER TWO       Is that what it means, Iczer One...! Your partner has 
                called!! How about if you ally with her! There is also 
                Cepia and her promise... Iczer Sigma will give you the 
                death stroke.

Upon saying that, Iczer Two disappears.

ICZER ONE       Nagisa...

Iczer One stands up desperately while clutching her wound, and allies 
with Iczer Robo.

ICZER ONE       Nagisa... You called Iczer Robo...

NAGISA          Iczer One... I... I will fight.

ICZER ONE       Do you mean it?! Nagisa!!

NAGISA          I will fight!!

Nagisa answers firmly. Before their eyes, a huge Cotuwolf robot 
appears with a glitter.

ICZER TWO       Ha, ha, ha... Did you see, Iczer One? This is my other 
                self, Iczer Sigma.

                (To Cepia) Let's go, Cepia. Your power must be far 
                greater than that of the Earth girl. Iczer Robo and such 
                are no problem!

CEPIA           Yes! How long I have waited for this, Iczer Two! Without 
                fail I will smash Iczer Robo, and exact revenge for 
                Cobalt.

ICZER ONE       Iczer Sigma... I guess you'll win, with this body of 
                mine... No, Nagisa is fighting with me... Nothing 
                can frighten me...

NAGISA          Sayoko... I won't run away, either... Because I will 
                protect Sayoko, and everyone on Earth...

NARRATOR        At once, Big Gold's trump card, Iczer Sigma, appears! 
                Will Iczer Robo be silent before that frightful power? 
                Then will Iczer One be able to beat the evil Iczer Two? 
                Nagisa, Sayoko, the fate of Earth... Fight, Nagisa! 
                Fight, Iczer One!!
