The Phantom Page #5

Synopsis: Four hundred years ago, a young boy witnessed his father's death during an attack on their ship by the bloodthirsty Sengh Brotherhood. He was washed ashore on Bengalla Island where he swore to devote his life to bring down piracy, greed, cruelty and injustice. He became The Phantom, a masked avenger whose role was passed down for father to son, leading people to believe in an immortal figure called "The Ghost Who Walks". The 21st successor to the role of Bengalla's resident superhero must travel to New York City to prevent a power-hungry businessman from obtaining three magic skulls that would give him the secret to ultimate power.

- Trust me, Diana.

- You know my name?

Sure. You're Diana Palmer.

Your kidnapping has been reported

to the authorities. This is a rescue!

Thanks, you've done a good job.

I can take it from here.

She's not changed a bit...

- What the hell is going on?

- There's a man in a purple suit here.

No, it can't be! Scramble the pilots!

Find him, stop him!

Don't let him get off the ship! Now, go!

- The engine room!

- I'll take the port side.

- I think we should stick together.

- OK.

We should stick together,

but I should go first.

Fine, go ahead. It's your rescue.

Get a hold of him!

Get back!

Relax, pal! Relax!

Small world, huh?

How is that knife wound doing?

Where was it again?

Right about there?

Good boy, Devil.

- Your dog's a wolf.

- I know. Come on.

Easy.

- Come on, get in.

- You can fly a plane?

Of course you can. Why ask?.

Let's go! They're getting away!

We've got to stop them!

Mount up, we're going after them!

Hurry up, let's go!

Come on, come on!

Stay with us! Ride fast!

We're losing fuel!

We better take her down!

- See the pontoon?

- Yes.

- Climb onto it.

- What?

Trust me.

I must be crazy.

- Who's flying the plane?

- I jammed the stick.

There's not much time.

The clearing's short.

- Get ready.

- Get ready?.

- You can't!

- We have to.

OK, jump!

- I can't believe we just did that.

- Neither can I.

Swing around behind me.

What's the matter with you?

Can't you hit anything?

Come on, step on it! Faster!

Catch them!

Don't let them escape! Go, go!

We can't outrun them

doubled up like this.

Don't worry,

I've got friends in these woods.

- How did you do that?

- My friends, the Rope People.

- Are you OK?.

- I just feel a little dizzy.

It must be the humidity.

- Wait here one second?

- OK.

I want to give you something

to remember me by.

I don't think that's a problem.

Well, you won't find these in New York.

Black pearls. They're beautiful!

They were a gift to an ancestor

by a grateful Arabian prince.

- I want you to have them.

- Thank you.

Oh, no! Not the old pearl ploy again.

That's what passes for humour

in the jungle, Diana.

Captain Horton, Diana Palmer.

Thank God you're all right Diana.

- How did you manage to get her away?.

- Diana did all the work, actually.

Not only is he mysterious,

he's modest, too.

Old jungle saying:

"Phantom is many men. "

No smoking in the Skull Cave.

Sorry, I forgot.

I received your uncle's wire. What's

so important as to bring you here?

Can you identify this symbol?

You'd better have a look.

Well, somebody say something.

We're all mixed-up

with the Sengh Brotherhood.

- The what?

- Sengh Brotherhood.
