Mission Earth 09: Villainy Victorious
By L. Ron Hubbard
Scanned and pre-proofed by BW-SciFi
Voltarian Censor's Disclaimer
This bizarre, fallacious tale has not been made any more palatable by the introduction of a
different narrator.
Nor has the narrative pined any credibility by its claims that events in our 110-planet
confederacy were caused by a stupid, nonexistent race of people from a planet that sounds more
like a lunatic asylum than anything else.
The position of the Crown is firmer than ever.
The planet Earth does not exist!

Voltarian Translator's Preface
Hi there!
This is your translator, 54 Charlee Nine. How are you?
Lord Invay may not take kindly to having a new narrator but it's sure easier for me. Monte
Pennwell speaks only Voltarian. I'm programmed for any language, but there does seem to be a
scarcity of information on the languages they speak on this nonexistent Earth.
I have updated your Key to this book and it follows.
Sincerely,

PART SEVENTY-ONE
TO: BIOGRAPHICS PUBLISHING COMPANY COMMERCIAL CITY PLANET VOLTAR
GENTLEMEN!
I am thoroughly delighted with the agreements that we have reached. I can assure you that our
names will be mutually and eternally emblazoned in history.
I could not believe that my government would ever lie to me. I had no idea that anyone would seek
a "cover-up." That was why I was so shocked to discover that they have deleted, changed and
destroyed records so that no one would learn the existence of this single planet called Earth.
Why would they want to deny the existence of a minor planet that is a mere 221/2 light-years away?
Ah, that's the story that I am so arduously and so faithfully writing!
So that you may better appreciate my achievement, I am sending what I have completed thus far and
will continue to write. I mailed the first part to you earlier. Let me try to bring you up-to-
date. This is no small task because the imagination is staggered by the sheer magnitude of the
events. However, I shall seek to achieve this.
As I have discovered, Earth is controlled by the man who owns the planet's fuel-Delbert John
Rockecenter. His power is such that he can determine the political future of a country simply by
making a telephone call to one of his minions.
Voltarian Fleet officer Jettero Heller's mission was to de-pollute the planet and to create an
inexpensive, safe source of energy so that Earth could survive long enough to be invaded.
When Heller arrived on Earth, he had the identity of Delbert John Rockecenter, Jr., which was
given to him by the head of the Coordinated Information Apparatus, Lombar Hisst. This was done
because Hisst wanted the Fleet officer's mission to fail, and he thought this would bring the
force of the Rockecenters down on Heller. The reason Hisst wanted the mission to fail was that he
was using Earth to produce mind-altering drugs that were being smuggled back to Voltar as part of
a conspiracy to overthrow the Empire.
What no one knew was that there was a real inheritor to the Rockecenter fortune-Delbert John
Rockecenter II.
The first person who tried to stop Heller was Rockecenter's attorney Bury, who gave Heller the
identity of Jerome Terrance Wister. It didn't stop him, however. Heller became a consul for the
African nation of Maysabongo and began to form corporations that created and patented new energy
sources-a revolutionary microwave power source, a new carburetor that didn't use gasoline and cars
that worked without Rockecenter-controlled fuel. When petroleum stocks dropped out the bottom,
Heller used his Maysabongo resources to buy them all up and to take control of Earth's oil
industries.
But Rockecenter was no fool, and he had forces that Heller could not muster-the American
presidency, for example, and the armed forces of the United States.
One Sunday afternoon Rockecenter was preparing to go to Philadelphia for a Swillerberger
Conference that he controlled. The president of the United States was to be called before the
conference that night and ordered to go before the Senate the next day to request that war be
declared on Maysabongo.
Bang-Bang drove Heller and his financial advisor Izzy Epstein to the great Rockecenter estate, and
Heller and Izzy walked in while Rockecenter was chastising Bury for the current predicament.
Heller made Rockecenter an offer: Call off the war, grant "Twoey" (Rockecenter's actual son) a ten-
file:///F|/rah/L%20Ron%20Hubbard/Mission%20Earth%2009%20-%20Villainy%20Victorious.txt (3 of 153) [8/31/03 1:31:55 PM]
file:///F|/rah/L%20Ron%20Hubbard/Mission%20Earth%2009%20-%20Villainy%20Victorious.txt
billion-dollar trust, draw up a new will leaving Twoey the entire estate, and Heller would give
Rockecenter the patents and a portion of the oil empire that Heller now controlled.
With the smile of a snake, Rockecenter agreed and the documents were signed-then the snake struck!
When the brief scuffle was over, Rockecenter's attorney Bury lay unconscious on the floor and a
weaponless Heller was surrounded by army troops.
Rockecenter scooped up the papers that now gave him complete control and put them into a huge
steel suitcase. He turned to a major general whose squad had its weapons turned on Heller and
Izzy.
"General," said Rockecenter, "hold this riffraff until I return. Then, as we will be at war, we'll
have work for a firing squad."
What? Has Heller lost everything?
Fear not! I, Monte Pennwell, Voltar's first, only and greatest investigative reporter, have the
story!
Chapter 1
Rockecenter grabbed his hat and picked up the heavy case. He stepped over to Bury behind the couch
and gave him a kick. "Whether you're dead or not, your usefulness is ended. Now I'm off to
Philadelphia to handle another one of your foul-ups."
Rockecenter went to the French doors, closed them behind him and shouted up the drive, "Bring my
car and get a tank for protection!"
The general gave a signal. Two soldiers seized Izzy, pinning his arms back and looking around for
something to tie him with.
Two more soldiers grabbed Twoey and after a brief struggle had him on the floor.
The general made a gesture toward Heller.
Rockecenter's car had arrived and Rockecenter went down the steps to it, but he stood there
looking up the road.
The soldiers started to grab Heller's arms. "Oh, he didn't mean me!" said Heller. "I'm his son."
"What?" said the general.
"Yes, it's a fact," said Heller. "He just meant these two fellows here."
Both Izzy and Twoey looked at Heller, stunned.
The general stepped toward the French doors as though to go after Rockecenter and ask. But
Rockecenter had now climbed into his car and it began to roll.
From where Heller stood he could see through the glass of the French doors that Rockecenter's car
had pulled up again and stopped. He hoped the general would not see that.
"Well, see here," said the general, "I'll have to have proof, and more than some phony I.D.!"
"Ah," said Heller. "You just grab the phone on that desk and ask for Emergency FBI, Washington,
D.C. You just ask for agents Stupewitz and Maulin."
Heller crossed his fingers. Those agents were the first ones he had had contact with on his
original arrival in the United States last fall. He had never heard of them or from them since.
The general moved to the desk, his back to the door. If he turned around he would be able to see
the limousine. It was waiting for a tank, apparently, for tank engines were roaring outside.
The general got his connection. He asked for agent Stupewitz or Maulin. He waited. Then he said,
"Agent Stupewitz? This is General Flood, New York National Guard. We've got a fellow here that
says he's Rockecenter's son.... Yes, I'll describe him. He's about six foot two, slender, blond
hair, blue eyes, probably about eighteen...." He put his hand over the mouthpiece, "What is your
name supposed to be?"
"Delbert John Rockecenter, Junior," said Jet. He could see the tank in place in front of the car.
A sergeant was standing by the officer in the turret, pointing at a map.
The general said into the phone, "He says his name is Delbert John Rockecenter, Junior.... I'm
calling from Pokantickle Hills, the Rockecenter home...."
He suddenly shoved the instrument at Heller. "He wants to talk to you to verify your voice."
Heller took the phone. Out of the corner of his eye, he watched the tank and limousine. He wished
they'd get moving. "Hello, Agent Stupewitz, sir," said Heller. "I just wanted to remind you that
we never got a tombstone for Mary Schmeck."
"JUNIOR! Hey, Maulin, it's Junior! Grab the other phone!"
"Hello, Junior," said Maulin. "I'm glad you called. Did you know we never even heard from Bury!"
"Not a squeak!" said Stupewitz.
"How horrible!" said Heller. "It's a good thing that you told me. I'm of age now and there's a lot
of inheritance around...."
Both agents laughed agreeably.

file:///F|/rah/L%20Ron%20Hubbard/Mission%20Earth%2009%20-%20Villainy%20Victorious.txt
"And I was just wondering the other day if I had any debts. By golly, I'm glad I contacted you. I
am going to need a lot of help to straighten up my affairs. Would you consider a couple of six-
figure jobs?"
Maulin said, "We can retire any minute, Junior. We're just waiting for the chance."
"You've got it," said Heller. "Do you want me to put this general back on?"
He handed the instrument to the general. He listened. His ears got bright pink. Then he looked at
Heller and stood a little straighten He put the phone back on its cradle.
"I'm sorry," said the general. "I'm new at these family matters."
"All's fair in love and war," said Heller cryptically. Out of the corner of his eye he saw that
the limousine and tank were gone. "Now, General, take that Bury there to your hospital tent and if
he isn't dead, do a nice long operation. Plenty of anesthetic because he's sensitive. As for these
other two, hold them very safe."
Izzy and Twoey looked at him with horror.
"Now, as you know," continued Heller, "there's lots of Maysabongo saboteurs about. So let me have
a motorcycle so my driver can scout the road. And if there's nothing else, I'll go out to my car
and try to catch up with Daddy."
"Very good, Lieutenant Rockecenter," said the general and barked an order to an aide who was
hovering at the door.
Chapter 2
Heller raced out. There was no sign of the tank or limousine. He spotted the sergeant who had been
showing the map to the officer in the tank turret.
"Sergeant," he called, and when the man came over and saluted, "It's very urgent that they take a
safe route. I trust you gave them good advice."
"Oh, yes, sir," said the sergeant, digging out a map. "There's reports of Maysabongo partisans in
New York. So they're going west over the Tappan Zee Bridge to the Jersey side and then south on
Highland Avenue until it joins the Palisades Interstate Parkway along the Hudson. Before they hit
the George Washington Bridge, they'll go west to Fort Lee and then hit the New Jersey Turnpike.
They'll leave that at Exit 6 and switch over to U.S. 95 and wind up right at Independence Hall."
Heller sketched it with a pen and took the map.
He ran over to where Bang-Bang sat worriedly in the cab, looking distrustfully at the army, an
organization which, as an ex-marine, he despised. Heller, arriving from behind, startled him.
Hastily, Heller gave him some instructions and handed him the map. A soldier was wheeling up a
despatch rider's motorcycle.
Bang-Bang got out of the cab. Heller took the despatch rider's helmet and put it on Bang-Bang.
Then Heller reached into the cab and hung the satchel around Bang-Bang's neck.
The soldier jiggled the carburetor primer. Bang-Bang stamped on the kick-start, gave Heller a look
of misgiving and then the motorcycle roared away, spreading terror amongst the troops it barely
missed as it rocketed for the gate. Bang-Bang was gone.
Heller climbed into the cab, which now looked like an army car, started up, and with a salute to
the officer, sped down the drive and away.
He had expected to catch up with Rockecenter by the time they had reached the Tappan Zee Bridge.
But when he went through the tollgate, he could see no sign of the limousine or tank on the long
span across the Hudson. He hoped Bang-Bang was riding fast enough. Rockecenter was certainly
revving it up.
Heller roared across the two-and-a-half-mile span: the Hudson River sparkled blue below in the
July noon sun, a vast waterway stretching to the distant sea.
Reaching the New Jersey side, he turned south on Highland Avenue, actually a highway in its own
right. Even though it was Sunday and he was entering the long series of parks which stretched
sixteen miles or more along the river, there was no traffic to be seen anywhere: the U.S. was out
of gas completely, except for the favored or those with foresight, and they weren't wasting it on
picnicking.
A few miles south of the bridge, the road turned through a rolling, grassy area, a deserted golf
course. He was going very fast. The turn ahead was blind. He shot around it.
THE LIMOUSINE AND THE TANK!
They were stopped beside the road.
Rockecenter was out of the car.
One of the tank crew was evidently trying to fix the limousine's whip antenna.
There was no time to brake or duck.
Rockecenter looked straight into Heller's face! He raised his hand to point and yell.
