The Boo-Ya! #9: Pages 7-8
Page 7, 6 Panels- Hallway, 5 floors beneath the Docking Bay, Mientahl
Panel 1-3: A three-part set of panels that centers mostly on a shot of the Clampher looking on as Ms. Cartwright (at the least the back of her when it comes to the layout of the scene. In Panel 1, she comes in with her fist seemingly ready to clock the Alliance police officer square in his jaw. It's soon evident in the next panel, however, that the young human will very much miss her target. The rest of her body just beginning to tumble out of view to the left, landing with a "THUMP!" and "BOOM!" from the fist as it crashes into the floor off-panel in Panel 3.
Panel 4: Cut to a shot of Ms. Cartwright moving back to her feet a few moments later after the brief moment of embarrassment. Her fist just coming back into view in the bottom of the panel, losing a little of the glow compared to the top of the page. In the background, you can see the Clampher looming behind, ready to deliver what can be described as the killing blow to the human. You can also hear, as was the case in the previous panel, the sound of flapping wings growing louder in the distance.
ROBIN CARTWRIGHT [thought bubble]: This...is staying the hell out of my "Hero's Journey!"
Panel 5: Same setting/layout as the previous panel. A second later, just before the Alliance officer can strike, a pair of orange rear claws comes into the shot, striking the Clampher and sending it shooting like a dart over to the left of the panel view.
Panel 6: Cut to an action shot of the Clampher as it tumbles end over end for a little over 12 feet down the hallway. You can see a few bits and bobs shoot off from the officer's body armor in each direction with each "WHOMP!" and "THUMP!" on the tile floor he makes.

Panel 1: We shift to a shot of Robin looking on at the massive dragon-like creature (which we know as the Moônghis) for the first time. It is considerably larger in size, its head nearing the ceiling, compared to the last time we saw the Moônghis. The wings just folding back to the sides as it lands.
ROBIN CARTWRIGHT [struggling to find the words, examining its torso]: Oh hai, alien dragon that...eerily looks like a Sharizard. Thanks for not eating me and, uh....for saving me too.
Panel 2-3: A two-part set of panels that moves toward a close-up on Ms. Cartwright's face a second later. As she's looking upon the creature's lower jaw, in Panel 2, she pauses and starts to put two and two together. In the next panel, Robin tilts her gaze to the end of the hall and gives a silent nod to the person.
ROBIN CARTWRIGHT [Cont., to Dr. Arxin; Panel 3]: You too, Doc! NESSA [Off-Panel, to the Madam; Panel 3]: This feels...a little too easy, don'tcha think?
Panel 4-6: A three-part set of panels that moves back up to the top floor Docking Bay. The Madam and Nessa are seen chilling on the wall, looking on at the scene while waiting for the rest of their hearty crew to come. Their weapons on their sides (the Madam's energy sword, Nessa's shiny , gripped in their respective hands as they speak. A fine misting of sweat is covering their foreheads as a result of the fight, along with the bodies of one of the Clampherz lying in front of them. In Panel 5, the Alliance officer tries to come back up as they speak and gets promptly kicked in the face, landing back on the floor by Panel 6.
THE MADAM [glances over to Nessa, Panel 4]: Since when have you f'raged about an easy job? NESSA [retorts, Panel 4]: I'm not, cap'n. It's just...these guys are Alliance stooges. Everything I've read about them shows they like to whip out surprises whenever they get beaten, like-- SOUND EFFECT [Panel 5]: FWONG! NESSA [Cont., Panel 5]: Like indestructible Gylos or deadly bubbles with the power to incinerate anything in a 10 mehtro radius. Shouldn't we go looking for it or something? THE MADAM [shrugs, Panel 6]: We can go look once Stahl or the Doc pops back up. STAEHLIA [Off-Panel, from the Madam's comm; Panel 6]: Uh, cap'n--?
Panel 7: Same setting/layout as the previous panel. A second later, a loud piercing "BEEP! BEEP!" permeates the relatively empty area. Our two alien heroines look over in the direction of the mysterious noise. You can see Nessa already beginning to run off in the direction of the Boo-Ya!, even before it's even said.
NESSA [nods annoyingly]: Fail safe bombas...least we don't have to look for it too hard! THE MADAM [to Staehlia]: Probably don't have long...Stahl, 'port us in and let's get the hells out of here. STAEHLIA [from the Madam's comm]: Yes, ma'am. Locked on and energizing now...
