ULGAR [fallen on the ground after being hit by a powerful
blow from garth---you creep!you insult the pride of dromeda ..me… ulgar…you
will be punished for this!
Garth is amazed to see ulgar suddenly floating---“of he is
lifting up in the sky..Floating in the air…
Ulgar--- I will break you ,,,but before that…ulgar lifts a
gloved finger at garth who is suddenly
joldted by a rays enveloping him and shaking him violently
Partly stunned by ulgar’s dinorays garth staggers to the
ground and gets up with difficulty—“the source of his great power seems to be
that belt around his waist, if only I could grab it!
“do you want more fun? Earthling….mocks ulgar
Garth suddenly springs up lunging at ulgar’s belt surprising
him
“I have deprived you source of your power, now we will have
a fight on even terms”
“creep I will show you even without the belt”
Ulgar suddenly springs up at garth who flips him over his
shoulder, both are locked in a grip and ulgar begins to feel garth’s super
human strength…”really a great adversary , I can make him my sparring partner
at dromeda.”thinks ulgar
Garth and ulgar are tired after this indecisive
fight---“this is laughable …what do we want to prove anyway …let us make peace
before we kill each other.. my name is garth..
I agree says atired and breathless ulgar “truce”
“I am ulgar ,I like you ..i want you to come along with me
to my planet dromeda .this is my request
“No ulgar thanks but I have to return to london..”says garth
“But garth dromeda is
the suitable place for you..we will be felicitated there , you can have pick of
your choice of women.”.says ulgar.

And garth if you refuse to come with me to dromeda, I will
accompany you to London, but first let me have my belt back …
Ulgar! No tricks with the belt warns garth…
No tricks,this is the promise of splendid hero of
intergalaxeal games , who is worshiped by women all over….
Ulgar this is what I like about you ,you are so
“modest”…garth says mischeviously..
Ulgar responds—“not modest.so handsome so powerful,so
gallant and every body’s loverboy..
Garth and ulgar reach London….this place is filled with
small people .,but I like your women, says
ulgar looking at a beautiful young lady
walking down the road..
“woman! I fancy you come to me….says ulgar
Lady is shocked and furious…”what nerve!”
Lady calls a bobby-“officer this man has insulted me…”
Garth who is nearby thinks—“ulgar has got himself in to
trouble this time”
“insult her?...never! says ulgar-“instead she should feel
thankful all women in dromeda fight over me”
“really?” shouts exasperated young lady..
Ok loverboy ,that is enough now give me your name and
address—says bobby
“hero of galaxy games..splendid ulgar!..says ulgar proudly
Fvourit youth icon of dromeda,obeject of desire of women,don’t forget to add all this
Garth who is lurking nearby overhears ulgar and is
frustrated “he is a peculiar sort to be sure”
Now then..were you consuming alcoholic drinks..sir?-aska
bobby..
Garth comes up behind ulgar and tells him that he is in a am
and that he should use the power of his magic belt and disappear from the
scene…..
“I can not understand
your London … these frigid women..”says ulgar while touching abutton on the
special belt..
Ulgar ‘s sudden disappearance leaves the policeman
foxed..”where did he go?..was he your friend?

you get those policemen’s hats?asks garth
No sooner I revealed myself few blue uniformed men tried to
stop me…fools!-responds ulgar
“and how did you find my place here?asks garth
That was easy----my belt is in constant communication with
your brain waves.. This was all prearranged even before I left dromeda—replies
ulgar.
“ulgar why have you come to earth?” asks garth.
“to kill you…but now I like you..we will have good time before I return to

ULGAR IS DRUNK IN
garth’s London flat garth tells proff lumiere that they know ulgar’s weakness…he
can not tolerate liquor ,I will examine
his belt till the time he is passed out drunk….
Ulgar is in drunken slumber and is muttering
incoherently—“my dear galia all other women are are dirt in your comparision

Garth-“galia?...i think she must be his girlfriend on
dromeda…ruffian!
Meanwhile on kadiin a planet neighboring dromeda ….galia’s
father is informing his daughter that the craft meant to carry her to dromeda
for her wedding to ulgar is ready…
Galia asks her father to wait outside as she is still
preparing ,she says ulgar can wait for me..
Noorud, aren’t you going to Dromeda for Galia’s wedding.. Galia’s
father is asked by his associate..as Galia is readying herself to board the
flight..” go with her? Who will look after my business here? Asks Noorud ,
Gallia’s father
Space bandit kraken is keeping a close watch on galia and
her team ‘s departure..” craft no 5 and 11 get ready..give instructions to
intercept them catch them and bring them here…”
Kraken who is the captain of robot controlled pilot crew is watching…”

syanos to save his darling daughter galia..”
On Galia’s space ship..”two ships are approaching us and
they are not heeding our signals…”
“Wait sir..i think we have moved out of their range..”
In Galia’s space ship a robot appears suddenly on the
monitor screens…”change your path and
follow us
In an attempt to escape the bandits galia,s space craft
wheels away in a wide circle in a desperate attemptto dodge the persuing robot
ship…
Galia is annoyed “pilot
what nonsense.. who is this kraken and his robots? Who are following us.
“I hope you will never come to know galia…” says the pilot.

Spacecraft carrying galia is speeding at incredible speed to the periphery of galaxy
“we are in a new,underdeveloped uncharted area ,and we are
still pursued by kraken’s spacecrafts”
“Send sos for help.”
On earth in england a team of scientists are receiving signals at a radiotelescope laboratory
“I can hear something strange, it is very faint, but I can
catch a few words …”
“words? Inform professor lumiere he will be interested…”
“That is right professor lumiere we are catching a few
words..”
“Make a tape recording.”
“now the signals are getting weaker … they must be moving
away at a speed faster than the speed of light!”
Play the tapes”—asks
luliere
“galia…..kraken , Dromeda, what could they mean?can you
understand professor?”
“galia… I have heard this word from a strange young man
called ulgar”-says professor lumiere
Lumiere hastens to garth’s London flat—
“garth this is important where is ulgar?”
“he is taking a bath.”—says garth—why what has happened?
“Dr beck’s radio telescope laboratory has received some
radiosignals from deep space, it could
be of use to ulgar…”
“galia, kraken, dromeda….lumerie plays the copy of the tape
of recorded message to ulgar’
Ulgar interprets “kraken’s robots are attacking galia.. I
have to leave for dromeda…”
Garth—“ulgar can you explain what you make of this message?”
Ulgar-“galia was coming to dromeda for our wedding ,kraken,s
bandit robots attacked her space craft”
Garth –“why..what is is his motive?”
“He wants to take galia hostage her father is richest man in
the galaxy”
Garth-“ulgar do you need some help?”
Ulgar-yes I do I, ulgar I am the stongest, valiant, and most
handsome of all men in Dromeda but I do not have enough brains “
PAGE-9
GARTH—if you can take me, I can come along with you to
dromeda
ULGAR-I will be happy, garth this travel belt can transport
both of us..
Ulgar presses a button on his travel belt ..
LUMIERE-it has failed ,he has disappeared..
Garth calling out to ulgar who has disappeared without
him,”ulgar come back I am left here only”
Ulgar- oh! I have pressed the wrong button,I am not myself
today, I will try again…says ulgar as he reappears
Garth reaches Dromeda
along with Ulgar---“first we will try to find any news of my dear GALIA—says
Ulgar—“”I will contact compex..”
“There is no word from galia’s craft”..ulgar is informed SOS
messages for help from her space ship stopped coming one hour back..”that means
kraken has captured her”---rages ulgar—“ I will kill him” garth—“where is this
Kraken’s den?”
Ulgar—it is an artificial planet,which is surrounded and
protected by electromagnetic force field.”
Garth-“who is this kraken?”
Ulgar a top scientist
of dromeda who turned bandit afterwards out of sheer boredom”
Garth- we will attack
and land in his head quarters”
Ulgar-“ it is impossible..this planet is surrounded by
electromagnetic force field ,it is impenetrable”
Garth- so. Would you leave galia to her fate?
Ulgar – no .but what can I do ? …I told you I was not very
bright, that is where you come in.
Meanwhile kraken confronts galia..”if your old man has any
sense you will be freed soon “
Galia asks what if he
declines to pay you ransom money?
Kraken-- then I will experiment on your body in my
laboratory…you will have to sleep with one of my robots”
Galia- this will never happen …ulgar will kill you..
Kraken”ulgar !that moron wrestler..don’t make too much of
his bravado…
