BANG! The Jupiter 2 crashed on to the unidentified planet. "Maureen, are you and the children all right?" John Robinson asked his wife on the lower deck. "Yes, we're fine John. Do you know where we are?" she asked hopefully. "No, Darling. Tell Will to send the robot up here to evaluate the atmosphere," John told Maureen. "I heard that Dad, the robot's coming up now," said Will. Just as soon as Will said it, the robot appeared on the elevator. "Robot, we need an atmospheric analysis of the planet we're on," Don West explained to the robot. "I shall get it for you right away," the robot said, moving towards the airlock. He went outside. After a minute or two he came back in. "Well Robot, what have you got for us?" Don asked. "Oxygen, Nitrogen, Carbon Dioxide, and Krypton atmosphere. Soil suitable for plant life. Hydrogen---" "Save us the chemistry you ninny," interrupted Dr. Smith, "...is it or is it not habitable for us. "Affirmative," the robot said. "What does 'affirmative' mean?" Dr. Smith said, annoyed. "Affirmative is an agreement between---" the robot began but got interrupted once again. "No, you bubble-headed booby, is it habitable or not?", impatient Dr. Smith shouted. "Affirmative, it is habitable," Robot said. "Okay, Don and I will check it out. We'll keep informing you on what's happening." John said to Maureen, Judy, Penny, and Will. "Oh, Dad, can't I go with you?" argued Will. "Not this time, son. Maybe next time," John said, ruffling Will's hair. "Okay," Will hesitantly agreed. John Robinson and Don West stepped out of the Jupiter 2. "It feels like we're in the tropics out here," Don said, wiping sweat of of his forehead. John nodded in agreement. All of the sudden Don got shot by some sort of laser gun. "Don what--," BANG!!!
Chapter 2 "I wonder why Dad and Don aren't back yet," Judy Robinson wondered out loud. "Maybe they just lost track of time," Maureen said un-convincingly. "I think we should go look for them," Will said, getting up from his seat. "Oh, no you don't, Will. Your father wants us to stay right here and that's just what we are going to do," Maureen said firmly. Penny sighed, looking rather bored. "Penny, why don't you and Will play a game of chess while Judy and I fix up dinner," suggested Maureen. "All right," agreed Penny and Will. They sat down and began their game while Maureen and Judy walked towards the galley. "I hope they're all right," Judy said worriedly as she set the table. "So do I dear, so do I," Maureen answered quietly. John Robinson awoke tied up in some strange cave. Don West, who was next to him and also tied up, was still knocked out. John lightly shook Don with his foot, just enough to wake him up. Don's eyes flew open. "Where are we?" he said. "I have no idea. Do you remember what happened?" John asked curiously. "No...not really. All I remember is a loud noise and then blackness all around. Do you?" Don asked. "No," John shook his head,"I don't remember anything that happened," John answered. Then they heard a strange noise. "What's
that?" Don said, putting his hand as best he could on his belt,
realizing that his laser gun wasn't there anymore...
Chapter 3 The noise in the cave sounded closer and closer every second. Soon, John Robinson and Don West saw the shadows of two figures. "We shall untie you if you cooperate," one figure said, coming close enough to realize that he was a kind of half human/half monster. The other human/monster was right behind him, holding both Don and John's laser guns. "Yes, will you or will you not cooperate with us," he said. "We will--" John started to say, but got interrupted by the first human/monster. "Good. What are your names?" "I am John Robinson and this is Don West. We are from the Jupiter 2, planet Earth," John replied. "I am Kelicos and this is my assistant, Dimnoff. We come from the planet Mapalous. On Mapalous, we need your help," the first human/monster, Kelicos, explained while untying John and Don. They untied them so that they could stand up and walk around, only their hands were tied behind their back. "We
will take you both to Mapalous tomorrow and tell you what we need
your help with," Dimnoff said.
Chapter 4 "We're not going anywhere with you," Don said through gritted teeth. "Sorry, but you must," Dimnoff replied. At the same time, John Robinson and Don West attacked the human/monsters, their hands still tied behind their back. They quickly knocked both of them out and grabbed their laser guns, running out of the cave. Meanwhile back at the Jupiter 2... "Are Will and Penny asleep yet?" Judy Robinson asked her mother. "Yes, Dear. After fighting with them both to actually lie down they fell asleep rather quickly," Maureen answered. "Alert! Alert! John Robinson and Major West are back! Alert! Alert!" the robot suddenly shouted from the upper deck. Beside him they could hear Dr. Smith yelling at the robot, "We hear you! We hear you! Oh, be still you ninny!" Maureen and Judy rushed upstairs and opened the airlock. John and Don ran inside. "Put the force field on! They may be coming after us!" shouted John, out of breath. Maureen turned it on. "Are you all right?" Maureen asked. "We'll be fine. Can you help untie us?" John answered, turning around. Maureen and Judy's eyes widened, as if they had just noticed that John and Don's hands were tied up. "How did that happen?" Judy asked, untying Don's hands. "We ran into two half monster/half humans-- Kelicos and Dimnoff -- and they tied us up. Needed us to help them do something on their planet-- Mapalous," Don answered, rubbing his now free hands. "Mapalous? Did you ever hear of that planet before?" Maureen asked her husband. "Maybe
we can make a deal with them- we'll give them the Professor and the
Major, and maybe they'll take us back to --- AUGGGGHHHHH!"
Chapter 5 "AUGHHHHHHHHH!" Dr. Smith yelled again. John, Maureen, Don, and Judy all looked up at the viewpoint. Kelicos and Dimnoff were standing outside. "Are those the two aliens?" Judy asked, gasping at the sight. John nodded. "Maybe we should see what they want you and Don for, and perhaps we can come to some sort of an agreement," Maureen said to John. "All right, let's give it a try. But, we should bring some laser guns just as a precaution," John answered. Don grabbed a couple of laser guns and Judy turned off the force field. John opened the airlock, and they all stepped out slowly. "So there are others of your kind here," Kelicos said to John and Don, gesturing towards Maureen and Judy. "Who are they?" asked Dimnoff. "This is my wife Maureen and daughter Judy," John answered. "Good. We shall be needing you all to help us on Mapalous," Kelicos said. He walked a little closer. "Okay Dimnoff, now!" Dimnoff came closer and grabbed Judy. "Aughhhhhhhh!" she screamed, and Dimnoff covered her mouth with his hand. John and Don raised their laser guns at Kelicos and Dimnoff. Kelicos knocked their guns out of their hands and grabbed Don, John, and Maureen. "There's
no escaping Kelicos!" Kelicos shouted, walking with Dimnoff back
to their cave, dragging John, Don, Maureen, and Judy.
Chapter 6 Will Robinson awoke early the next morning. He washed up, got dressed, and went to the upper deck. "Dr. Smith? Why are you up here? Dr. Smith?" Will asked, shaking the asleep doctor. "Just another minute or two, mom," mumbled Dr. Smith, turning over. "Come on Dr. Smith, wake up!" Will shouted, dragging Dr. Smith up into sitting position. He wouldn't wake up. Will shook his head and sighed. Just then, Penny entered the room. "Oh, hey Penny," Will said. "Morning Will. What's the matter with Dr. Smith?" she asked, taking a look at Dr. Smith. "He's still asleep I guess. You know Dr. Smith. When he's asleep, nothing will wake him up. Anyway, let's go see if breakfast is ready yet, I'm hungry," Will said, opening the airlock and going outside. Penny followed Will. "Hey, where is everyone?" Will asked, not seeing anyone at the table. "Well, maybe they're all still asleep," exclaimed Penny. "I don't know..." Will answered, unsure. They both went back inside the Jupiter 2, checking everyone's rooms. "They're not anywhere!" panicked Penny. - - - "What do you want with us?" John Robinson asked Kelicos again as he was getting tied up yet again. "You'll find out soon...sooner than you think," Kelicos answered mysteriously as he walked out of the room. John, Maureen, Don, and Judy had all been split apart, each in their own room, tied up. Meanwhile in another room..... "Rakia, oh great master, we have got your humans," Kelicos said into the visual message transporters. "Good, good. Send them to me at o-eight hundred," said the dark shape on the screen. "As
you wish, my lord," Chapter
7 "Dr. Smith, wake up!" screamed Penny and Will Robinson at the same time. Dr. Smith jumped up. "What is the meaning of this?" he yelled. "Dr. Smith, they're gone! They're all gone!" Penny started to cry. "What are you talking about?" asked Dr. Smith. "Everyone-mom, dad, Judy, and Don! They're all gone!" Will exclaimed. "Oh, no, we're doomed!" Dr. Smith shouted. "Robot, can you tell us what happened?" Will asked the robot. "It does not compute!" the robot answered. "Let's go find them! Come on Penny!" Will shouted, running. Major Don West sat in his cell and thought. 'Maybe I can...no,' he thought to himself, trying to figure out ways of getting out. "If you're thinking of escaping," a voice said suddenly, "then you're wasting your time," Kelicos appeared. "What do you want from us?" Don asked, getting angry. "Our powerful master is the ruler of our planet, Mapalous. He needs a couple of humans for slaves," Kelicos explained. "Why humans?" Don asked. Kelicos shrugged, "He specifically said for humans, so that's what he's going to get," Kelicos answered, turning around and walking out the door. "We'll see about that," Don said under his breath, "we'll see," "I wonder where they could be," whined Penny for the millionth time. Will and Penny had been searching for their mother, father, sister, and Don for hours. They were getting tired of walking in circles. "Wait! What's that?" Penny stopped so suddenly that Will almost tripped over her. Penny pointed straight ahead. "But how could that have gotten there without us seeing it? We've been travelling in circles," Will exclaimed. "Let's go inside," he said, moving closer towards it. "I don't know..." Penny started. "Penny, do you want to find mom, dad, Judy, and Don?" Will asked. She nodded. "Well
then come on!" he said, yanking her through the doorway of Kelicos
an Dimnoff's ship. Chapter
8 Will and Penny Robinson slowly walked down the long, dark corridor. "Hello? Is anyone there?" they called. No one answered. They kept on walking straight ahead and came to a room with several doors. "Should we go in one?" Penny asked her brother. Will nodded, and randomly choosing one, turned a knob. It was a kind of a jail cell. "Who's there?" asked a familiar voice from the dark corner. "Don?" Will asked. "Will! Come untie me!" Don shouted. Will and Penny ran to the corner. "Where are the others?" Penny asked. "In the other rooms nearby," Don replied. "Let's go!" Will exclaimed as he finished untying Don. Don, Will, and Penny ran out of the room. Don opened the door next to his. "Hello?" he called out. "Don!" yelled Judy's voice. "Judy!" he yelled, running to the corner. So did Will and Penny. "You okay?" Don asked Judy as he untied her. "Yes, I'm fine. Will, Penny, how'd you get here?" she asked. Will nodded in agreement. "Well, c'mon, let's go find mom and dad!" Penny exclaimed, walking out of the room. Will, Don, and Judy followed her. Penny opened a door and shrieked. Kelicos
and Dimnoff stood in front of them. Chapter
9 "This way!" Don West shouted, turning and running with everyone. "What about mom and dad?" Will shouted. "I think they're in there!" Judy yelled back, pointing to the two doors up ahead. Don flung open one of the doors and ran inside. "Be careful Don, it might not be--" Judy yelled out worriedly, but got interrupted by a voice. "Over here!" John Robinson shouted. Don untied him and they all ran out of the room. "Your mother's in there!" John shouted to Will, who was at the front of the small crowd running all over the place. "Mom, you in here?" asked Will after he had opened the door. "Will! Oh! Come untie me!" Maureen yelled. Will started untying her. "Hurry up! Here come Kelicos and Dimnoff!" Judy yelled over her shoulder. "Who?" Penny asked. "Those two aliens. If I get my hands on them I'll--" Don started angrily, but Judy stopped him. Maureen and Will burst out of the room and headed down the corridor with the others. "This way!" shouted Will, remembering which way to go. They all ran the way Will was pointing, hoping he was right. "Come back here, humans!" yelled Kelicos, he and Dimnoff getting closer. "I see the daylight! We're getting closer!" Judy shouted. They ran through the door and were outside. "We made it!" Penny shouted. "No we didn't. Kelicos and Dimnoff are right behind us!" Don yelled. They all turned and started running once again. "Get in that cave!" John shouted to everybody. Everyone got in and sat down, catching their breath. "I wonder why he wanted us anyway," Judy said. "Oh, he told me why. His master wants us to be his slaves," Don answered. "What?!?" everyone cried out. "Yup," Don nodded," that's what Kelicos told me," "Do you think they're gone?" Penny asked. "Oh, I don't know, dear," her mother said, putting her arm around Penny. "I don't think that we should take the chance of walking back to the Jupiter 2. Maybe we should camp here for the night," John suggested. They all nodded. "First thing in the morning, we'll head back," John continued, "and I also think that we should all go to bed early," "Yes, you know what they say, early to bed, early to rise," Maureen said, settling Penny and Will. "Don and I will go get some wood for a fire. We'll be right back," John said, as he and Don walked out of the cave. When
they returned, Kelicos and Dimnoff were there with laser guns, and
Maureen, Judy, Penny, and Will weren't anywhere in sight. Chapter
10 "Where are they?" yelled John Robinson. "Where are who?" dumbfounded Kelicos asked. "Don't play innocent, Kelicos. Where are my wife and children?" John stated, more than asked. "We have no idea," Kelicos replied,"we were looking for them also. And you, in fact," "If you know anything, you better come out with it or--" Don started. "Wait a minute, Don," John interrupted, his voice lowering to a whisper, "Maureen is smart, she and the children may have gone into hiding or back to the Jupiter 2," "Maybe," Don whispered back, nodding. "Let's go look for them," John said, forgetting about Kelicos and Dimnoff. "Oh no you don't. You are not getting away from Kelicos that easily," Kelicos said, moving towards them and raising his laser gun. Don knocked it out of his hand and picked it up. Raising it at Kelicos, he said, "Are you sure you don't know where Maureen, Judy, Penny, and Will are?" "No, we honestly don't," Kelicos said, he and Dimnoff backing away. John and Don turned and ran, looking for the others. "First let's go back to the Jupiter 2 and see if they're there," John said, walking in the direction of their spaceship. They could see it from a distance. When they finally got there, they went inside. The robot was in the control room. "Where's Smith?" Don asked the robot, looking around. "He is taking a nap," Robot replied. "What's new," Don muttered. "Nevermind Smith. Robot, have you seen Maureen, Judy, Will, or Penny anywhere?" John asked. "Not since the last time I saw you," Robot replied. "Do you have any idea where they could be?" Don asked the robot. "My sensory units compute that they are just arriving." No sooner had the robot said that, Maureen, Judy, Penny, and Will came in through the airlock. "Where were you?" John asked his wife. "Looking for you and Don. We finally decided to head back here," Maureen answered. "Warning! Warning! Aliens approaching!" the robot suddenly shouted. They turned and saw Kelicos and Dimnoff at the viewpoint. We
can make a deal with them- we'll give them the Professor and the Major,
and maybe they'll take us back to --- AUGGGGHHHHH!" Chapter
11 John Robinson and Don West grabbed a couple of laser guns and walked out of the Jupiter 2. "You two stay here," Maureen said to Will and Penny as she and Judy followed John and Don outside. Without any warning or discussion, Kelicos and Dimnoff knocked John and Don down. Maureen and Judy ran to help them back up. "Our master has just contacted us and said that since you've been giving us so much trouble, we should take only two of you as slaves," Dimnoff explained. "You two," Kelicos said, coming closer to Judy and Don, "I think that you two would be perfect as slaves. Are you going to come with us or are we going to have to force you to?" He had a gun and pointed it at them. Judy and Don's eyes opened wide and Don said, "We'll come," "What?!?" Judy whispered loudly. Don winked at her. "Then start walking back to our ship," Dimnoff said, pointing straight ahead. "Let's go, Judy," Don said. She looked at him strangely. Suddenly he nodded at John and they both attacked Kelicos and Dimnoff. This time, John and Don grabbed their guns. "You never give up, do you?" asked surprised Kelicos. "No," John answered, "we're only human," Kelicos took out a kind of walkie-talkie communicating device and talked into it, "COBQ, tell the master that humans aren't for him. We'll pick up a couple of Nestones on our way," "Yes, sir," said the voice at the other end. He put away the walkie-talkie. "We've never had so much trouble getting an alien before as we did today, getting a human," Dimnoff said. John laughed and shrugged, "That's the way we were brought up," "Well, perhaps we'll be seeing you again sometime," said Kelicos, "c'mon Dimnoff. Next stop, Nestonia," Dimnoff followed Kelicos and they left. "Let's go back inside," Maureen said, "we've had quite a day!" When they got inside, Dr. Smith was there. He must have just woken up, as he had his "night cap" on. "So, did I miss anything?" Dr. Smith asked, looking around at the tired crew. "Well, did I?" he asked. No one paid attention to him and left. The robot laughed. "Well, what are you laughing at, you bucket of bolts," said annoyed Dr. Smith, who turned and stomped off. THE
