コドク・エクスペリメント
In the year 1999, a research spacecraft approaches the dying planet Deronga Five Alpha, a world once lush with life but now a hellish landscape where vicious carnivorous creatures fight for survival. Captain Bugless, the cold and cruel leader of the mission, ignores warnings and sends a military team to the planet's surface. The expedition ends in catastrophe as the team is slaughtered by the native creatures. Before seemingly dying, the team's leader, Cannon, swears vengeance on Bugless.
Twenty years later, another spaceship arrives to witness the planet's final explosion. As Deronga Five Alpha detonates, a foreign object attaches itself to the ship. The crew investigates and discovers it is one of the planet's creatures, somehow surviving the planetary destruction. The creature flies into a rage upon seeing Bugless—now a high-ranking military official—on a monitor. As the creature wreaks havoc, the crew must uncover the truth behind this impossible survival and the mysterious experiment that may connect it all.
