Rick Hunter is relieved to find himself safely on the ground. He is confused on what has happened. How did his plane turn into a robot? He meets a yound girl Lynn Minmei who lives nearby where he crashed. Unable to control his plane in this new configuration, he is glad to see his friend Roy fly down to save him. Roy explains about the Veritechs and how they work. As they take off, Minmei and her family leave for the shelters. Forgetting her diary, Minmei leaves the shelter to retrieve it. Before she is able to get back to the shelter, the Zentraedi take to the streets. Minmei finds herself about to be killed when Roy flies down and saves her. He tells Rick to get her out of there.
