KOICHI KUDO

Koichi Kudo

Koichi is the young son of Professor Kudo and Mrs. Kudo.  His father had been captured by Samurai Mask and several Zolders.  Samurai Mask wanted Professor Kudo to modify his Sand Beam.  Professor Kudo refused.  Samurai Mask decided to capture Koichi to force his father to do Black Army Cross's bidding.  Koichi was in the park, when Kenji approached him and brought him to Snack Shop Gon.  After awhile, Koichi screams that he wants to go home and tries to run away from Snack Shop Gon.  But he is quickly surrounded by Daita, Kenji, Tomoko and Haruko.  Daita tries to encourage Koichi to stay by telling him the curry is tasty.  But Koichi manages to get away.  Koichi hides close by and when he feels the coast is clear, he takes off running. But soon Daita is on his trail.  Koichi is almost in Daita's reach when a jeep stops in front of Koichi.  Several Zolders grab a hold of Koichi and load him into the jeep and take off.  Daita runs after the jeep, shouting at it to put Koichi down.  A Zolder fires his gun at Daita.  Daita avoids being hit, but has lost Koichi. Later, Professor Kudo is confronted by Samurai Mask and a few Zolders.  Samurai Mask wants Professor Kudo to set up the Sand Beam on a satellite.  Professor Kudo is very angry and asks Samurai Mask if he intends to turn the whole world into a desert?  Samurai Mask acknowledges that is his plan.  Professor Kudo refuses to do it.  Samurai Mask opens a door to reveal Koichi and more Zolders holding onto him.  Professor Kudo is shocked as his son screams for him. Koichi is taken to a cell and left there.  Soon two other people are placed in the cell - Peggy and Tsuyoshi.  Koichi is crying when the two notice him.  Koichi is quickly scooped up and he finds himself sitting on Peggy's lap as she tells Tsuyoshi, what horrible people to kidnap a child to threaten his parent.  Zolders enter their cell and yank them up on their feet.  Samurai Mask tells them the time for your execution has come.  Koichi, Tsuyoshi, and Peggy are lead outside by Samurai Mask and several Zolders.  Professor Kudo is outside as well, and already tied to a pole.  Koichi starts screaming for his father as soon as he sees him.  Samurai Mask gives the instructions to kill them all.  Professor Kudo is upset and tells Samurai Mask that he had said he would spare Koichi.  Samurai Mask tells him, once a human enters our base, none may come out alive!  Professor Kudo pleads for the life of his child.  Samurai Mask strikes him with his weapon.  Professor Kudo asks his son to forgive him.  Tsuyoshi's turns on his Communication Device and it begins to flash. A couple of Zolders bring out the Sand Beam. Samurai Mask takes a look at the Sand Beam and tells the Zolder to fire it.  The Zolder is taking aim when Variblune arrives above them.  A small knife drops out of Tsuyoshi's sleeve and he uses it to cut loose the ropes binding him.  Very quickly, Koichi, Tsuyoshi, Peggy, and Professor Kudo are freed.  Angry Samurai Mask shoves the Zolder aside and fires the Sand Beam at the four.  When the smoke clears, the four are gone.  Samurai Mask is very surprised and looks around.  Above him, stands Koichi, Peggy, Tsuyoshi, and Professor Kudo.  Samurai Mask sends the Zolders after them.  Tsuyoshi and Peggy immediately begin fighting the Zolders as Professor Kudo gets to safety with his son, Koichi.  Variblune lowers a clear tube with a small cage.  The cage encloses Koichi and Professor Kudo.  Akira releases more air pressure, and the air pressure sends Professor Kudo and Koichi up and into the safety of Variblune.  Samurai Mask is destroyed by the Gorengers.
