Ep. 24: Van Pursues Zeke Amidst Whirlwind and Stinger's Deceptive Plan
Van returns Rudolph to safety and observes a light whirlwind around the Shield Liger, while Metelinick’s forces repair damaged Dark Horns. Stinger, also known as The Fisherman, arrives and strikes a deal with Metelinick to use an organoid against the group. Van demands answers regarding the Shield Liger, discovering Fiona and Zeke are inside. He attempts to enter but is repelled by intense energy. Driven by jealousy that Zeke chose Fiona, Van flees to nearby ruins. Denis is tasked with monitoring Van and preventing him from reaching the light. Stinger’s scheme involves two Dark Horns attacking him to gain Moonbay’s trust, followed by poisoning their food. The plan succeeds, though Rudolph avoids the soup. At the ruins, Van hears Fiona’s voice urging him to return, only to be ambushed by the Red Guysack.
