experiment with the Flower specimens he has brought
with him from Optera.

hive complex, code named Reflex Point.
Upon crossing a desert on his Cyclone, he meets
Rand, who has just discovered the fallen flagship
from the Mars Group and was joy riding on a newly
acquired Cyclone when Invid scouts appeared. Scott
engages the scouts and destroys them easily with the
Cyclone's configurable armor.
Scott and Rand approach Laako City where they pick
up Annie LaBelle. The population of the city turns
them over to the Invid Shock Troopers, but with the
help of a mysterious red Cyclone rider, the Shock
Troopers were dispatched. The red Cyclone rider
disappears.
Scott and company enter a dust-ridden town and
attends a club where they see and meet the famous

Bartley, former of the bike gang, the Blue Angels.
Here, Lancer(a male robotech freedom fighter in the
guise of a female singer, Yellow Dancer), and William
"Lunk" Benovitch(a former robotech bio-maintenance
engineer) join Scott on his journey to Reflex Point.
Lunk provides Scott with a fully maintained and
operational Alpha fighter.

spoke out against the Invid slavery, was killed by
the townspeople in fear of him endangering the town.
The team encounters Colonel Wolff and his anti-Invid
underground. For months, Wolff has been giving
Robotech soldiers to the Invid in exchange for canisters
of Protoculture and the possible release of his wife and
son from imprisonment by the Invid. Realizing his grave
mistake in his actions, Wolff, in Scott's VT, aids
the team in a short skirmish with the Invid and is
mortally wounded. Colonel Jonathan Wolff dies.
The Regis performs clonings in Genesis Pits(similar
to those on Praxis) to acquire the ultimate form her
Invid should take for their new life on Earth.

body found in a wreckage of the Mars Division
flagship) is birthed and is planted in the route
Scott's team is heading.
The team approach Point K, a rendezvous for all
surviving units of Scott's invasion force,
consisting of close to a thousand veritechs, ground
units, assault mecha, supplies, and ammunition. But
instead of finding a base, they find a graveyard of
ships. The Invid had already obliterated all forces
at Point K. The team enters the area in search for
ordinance but Scott goes in to seclusion. Rand and
Rook scout the area and finds Ariel at a nearby
town. Ariel, similar to a newborn child, has not
learned to speak. Rand and Rook assumes her to be
in shock. Lunk and Lancer discover two operational
Alpha fighters and one intact Beta fighter among the
wreckage. The group comes together to report their
findings and Ariel is given the name Marlene by
Scott for she is in the likeness of his deceased
fiancee, Marlene Rush.
The team approaches a mountain range and is quickly
warned by the nearby town, Deguello, that the ranges
are constantly patrolled by the Invid fortress built
there. A map of the secret routes to pass through
the patrols were sold, but through Lancer's old time
girlfriend, Carla, she reveals to him that the maps
are fake and the citizens who buy and follow the map
were going to their dooms.
Rand and Annie volunteer and successfully deactivate
the Invid Brain to prevent the detection of incoming
Robotech mecha. The Brain and the fortress is destroyed

Prince Corg and Princess Sera are transmutated to
human form and are ordered to go out and seek the
simulagent Ariel for the cause of her disfunction.
The team finds a few left over naval ships from the
Second Robotech War to cross the Gulf of Mexico. They
set a trap for the Invid patrols and Rook is wounded in
the battle.
The team takes a rest at a once beautiful beach
resort. Lancer has a run in with the Invid Princess
Sera and reports to Scott that the Invid are using
human pilots for their mecha. Sera is disturbed by
her first encounter with the human emotions in her
created by Lancer.
Scott is taught how to swim by Rand and Annie

power center in the city and buries the city once
again. Corg encounters Ariel for the first time.
The team holds a surprise birthday party for Annie.
The team runs into Dusty Ayres, a human specimen the
Invid used to experiment on, replacing his entire
right side with Protoculture-generated organs
without the use of any anesthetics, while his
friends stood by and watched. He wages war on all
Robotech soldiers and Scott rounds up a posse to
hunt for him until the Invid attacks. With some
encouragement from Rook, Dusty aids Scott in the

On Haydon IV, Veidt and Exedore are present at the
reawakening of the planet's Awareness. Max and his
family are also on-planet. Cabell is on Tirol.
The great god Haydon returns to Haydon IV. Haydon
IV leaves its planetary orbit, all inhabitants are
forced into below-surfaced chambers and are guarded
by Haydonites. The long awaited "Event"(a cosmic
event that will alter the fabric of spacetime) has
commenced its beginning programmed into the planets
AI awareness eons ago. Exedore and Veidt hypothesizes
that somehow, the universe is shrinking.
The Karbarran fleet's command ship N'trpriz,
attempting to rescue those imprisoned below the
surface of Haydon IV, is obliterated by its own

Mannatan) where Sera is with Lancer. Sera
prophesizes a little of the future to Ariel, then
with her last breath, she dies and her body and
spirit returns to be one with the Queen-Mother.
Scott and Marlene are escorted to Norristown where
Marlene is taken to be interrogated.
Scott returns to the Ark Angel and with the Grants
and council members, are informed by Dr. Nichols
that the reason for the breakdown of mecha is that
all 1st generation Protoculture from Zor's original
matrix in the SDF-1 and those created by the Regis
on Earth cease to function after the leaving of the
Regis. They realized that the fold and drive systems
aboard the SDF-3 were from Breetai's original flagship,
and the battle fortress was taken with the Regis as soon
as she left Earth. Also that Robotechnology is coming to
an end and humans and all living creatures must now shape
their own destinies, one they will fashion by themselves
and not by Protoculture.
Scott is reunited with Marlene and is ordered to try
to help her re-establish link with the Regis.

Newspace: The arrival of the SDF-3 in Newspace-a universe of
non-space fashioned by the Shapings of Protoculture
and the Regis. Similar to the uniqueness of the
SDF-1's fold drives which captures a quantum of
hyperspace and conveys it into a world of time, the
SDF-3 captured a quantum of time and had taken it
into hyperspace. Newspace is outside the province
of space and time. The SDF-3's fold drives have
also disappeared, just as it had happened to the
SDF-1 after its maiden fold.
A series of experiments and extra-vehicular
expeditions are made to test the conditions of the
surrounding "space". Captain Jack Baker is the
first to make the excursion. Rem enlightens the
crew of SDF-3 that "newspace" is a universe in the
making.

informed of the situation on the planet.
Cabell informs everybody on the genesis of Haydon
and his contribution to the evolution of the Invid,
Karbarrans, Perytons, Spherisians, Garudans,
Praxians, and all Local Group races. Upon the
mating of the Invid and protoculture and their
transmutation(the Event), Haydon's race would come
out of suspended animation, hook on to the tail of
the Invid phoenix and follow them into another
dimension.
The Ark Angel defolds in the Ranaath system and sees
Haydon IV reconfigured and joined to a planet mining
metals for the ships the planet is manufacturing.

awareness to find the course plot for the ships so
the Ark Angel can arrive ahead of Haydon's ships.
Communications with Exedore and the Sterlings are
established.
With a false denouncement of love from Scott,
Marlene has a seizure and confirms that the Regis is
in the collapsed Ranaath's star.
In learning of the whereabouts of the SDF-3,
preparations are made to hijack one of Haydon's
newly built ships after the planet's Awareness has
programmed the coordinates and course plot into the
automatic computers for the ships to follow the path
of the Invid into the black hole.
The Karbarran fleet arrives at Ranaath's star and
begins to engage Haydon IV with their fighters.
Dana Sterling leads a rebellion against the planet's
Awareness to free its prisoners.
Colonel Scott Bernard leads the mission to hijack
Haydon's prototype ship. Louie and his cyber-team are
infiltrated into the planet's AI, trying to give
clearance to Scott's team to take the ship without Haydon
knowing it, and also hoping to throw the planet's
Awareness into disarray by the coordinated multiple
attacks.
The Ark Angel deploys shuttles to Haydon IV to pick
up the hostages, including Exedore, Veidt, and the
Sterlings.
Scott(with the help of Louie and his cyber-team)
successfully hijack a Haydonite ship (christened the
Peter Pan) and the Ark Angel ferries supplies and
crew (including the Grants, Karen's father Doctor
Penn, Marlene, Louie and his cyber-team, and the
Sterlings) to the ship. Upon completion, the ship
continues its programming and embarks for the voyage
into the black hole.
Exedore and Cabell discover a new found matter in
the universe, anti-protoculture.

Invid Regis, and tells the scout team that the Regis
has the fold systems and that the known universe is
coming to an end. Rick is recalled to the SDF-3
because the children were in contact with Aurora.
Rspace: Haydon IV arrives at New Praxis and commands the
Praxians to bring all of the Flowers of Life to him.
Aboard the Peter Pan, Marlene regains consciousness
and Aurora is summoned to the SDF-3. Aurora informs
the children of the SDF-3 that help is on the way.
On Tirol, Exedore and Cabell meet with Local Group
captains to plan the attack on Haydon IV now orbiting New
Praxis.

Protoculture from the planet. The Local Group fleet
arrives with the Tracialle and Valivarre leading the
attack. While the fleet closes in on Haydon IV, the
planet transforms into battle mode-similar to the
transformation of the SDF-1.
The Tracialle is destroyed taking Haydon IV with it,
but Haydon had launched fighters and the planet's
Awareness speeds towards Tirol to seize the
protoculture matrix developed by Rem.
Exedore and Cabell struggle to coordinate the
evacuation of Tirol to underground shelters.

towards the SDF-3. The crew of the original RDF are
reunited once again.
At the urgings of Rem and the children, a party was
formed to returned to Omphalos to try to communicate
with the Regis. A patrol of Alphas had discovered
an Invid hive and the party is shuttled down near
the hive. The party includes the Hunters,
Sterlings, Grants, Kazianna and Drannin, Rem and
Minmei, Dr. Nichols and his cyber-team, Dr. Lang,
Scott and Marlene, Angelo and Gnea, Baldan, and
Learna. The party meets with the Regis and is
informed of her ultimatum.
Max wins in combat with a black mecha fashioned by
the Regis from Dana's dark side of her feelings of
her parents leaving her behind on Earth.

and Dr. Lang and Dr. Nichols are placed in custody,
but escape aboard the fortress.
The Regis and Haydon battle for supremacy.
Dr. Lang joins in one with the shapings of
Protoculture with Dr. Nichols as the last person to
see Dr. Lang ever again.
Upon returning to the SDF-3, the party rushes to the
engine room in hope of that the SDF-3 children can
somehow bring the fold system back to fold out of
Newspace while the Regis is preoccupied. With the
help of Aurora and the voice of Minmei, the SDF-3
children teleport the original fold system of the
SDF-1 from the Regis's domain and is quickly hooked
up to the SDF-3 systemry.
The SDF-3 executes a fold to realspace. At the door
between realspace and Newspace, the Regis and Haydon
clash head-on(the Intersection, the end of the
Shapings). Both deities at once knew the true meaning
of humbleness and precedented sensations of peace and
