Exodus

Summary of Darna Episode 1 (April 4, 2005, Monday).

In Planet Marte, two alien races are at war: the noble Adranika led by Adran, and the evil Anomalka headed by its queen, Braguda.

Adran sends her second-in-command, Aio, on a mission to find a new owner for a mysterious white stone. Aio leaves on a spaceship followed by Braguda. Planet Marte explodes.

Aio’s ship crashes to Earth. Narda, Ding and Efren see it and think it’s a comet. The children try to cross a bridge. Narda almost falls, but Efren saves her.

Narda’s family is told to leave their house because her father, Mulong, is unable to pay the rent. Mulong fights the owner. The owner orders his men to burn the house.

Aio comes out alive from the wreck of her ship. She she’s herself in a piece of glass and finds out that she is aging rapidly.

Braguda creates a giant sea monster to terrorize the people of Narda’s town. The monster kills a man and takes the body back with it. The story spreads in the town that there is a big snake in the lake.

Efren is angry with his father who is the owner of the house that was burned. He leaves crying and meets Valentina who develops a crush on him.

Narda’s family goes to Prospera for shelter. Prospera is Mulong’s wealthy half-sister, and mother of Valentina. The girl convinces her mother to let them stay so she can be with Narda. Prospera consents but tells Mulong to find a job. The family goes to live in a hut in the hacienda.

The two cousins go out to play and meet Efren. Efren gives Narda a necklace and says his family is leaving the town. He asks her to come to the same place tomorrow to meet him.

Prospera scolds Narda when the children get home for taking Valentina with her. Narda cries. Valentina defends her. Prospera locks Narda away. Narda weeps in the darkness.

Efren waits for hours next day but finally gives up and leaves. Valentina comes to free Narda and they go look for Efren. They split up. Narda finds the magic stone. It tells her she has been chosen to keep it for a mission, and at the right age she will be told what to do. Aio looks from afar.

Valentina screams. Narda runs and sees her in the grip of the giant snake.
