Lorien Legacies (TV Series)

The Lorien Legacies TV Series is a three-season 2015 TV Series by HBO, based on the six books by Pittacus Lore. (I am Number Four, The Power of Six, The Rise of Nine, The Fall of Five, The Revenge of Seven, and We Stand as One)

The series is about Nine aliens from the peaceful Lorien race who have been hunted down by the genocidal alien race called the Mogadorians. The nine have been cornered to Earth, with their non-powered Cepans, followed swiftly by the Mogadorians and a mysterious second Loric Ship.

Episode 1 (Invasion):
The Episode goes over the Predictions of leading Loric Elder Pittacus Lore, who prophecizes the arrival and invasion of the Mogadorians, led by the sadistic Setrakus Ra. He predicted the Invasion taking place during the Quartermoon celebration, a week from this. Before leaving Lorien, he assigns Nine Cepans (Hilde, Conrad, an unnamed Cepan, Brandon, Albert, Katar, Adel, Reynolds, and Sandor) to Nine sucessors of the Loric thrones (The Garde), only children at the time. When he makes it to Earth, he assigns conspiracy thoerist Malcolm Goode to gather his most trusted friends to help greet the oncoming ships.

The war began during the Quartermoon celebration on the planet. The first part of the attack consisted of bombing the planet with missiles and destroying several locations where lots of loric were at that moment. Some of these locations include the Chimæra nightclub, the spires of Elkin, the Lorien defence academy. It is also known that before the attack, the Mogadorians disabled the grid by shooting large violet beams of energy in the sky. Unknown to the loric at first, the beams were draining the grid's power systems so that the grid would not function on the day of the invasion. The reason that the mogadorians could land so easily was because of the Loric; it was their own mistake. Since it was near the Quartermoon festival, the Loric believed that the violet beams were actually signs of the beginning of the Quartermoon but unbeknownst to them, it were signs to their doom. When the first missle barrage ended the mogs landed a part of their ground troops and beasts on the service to begin the attack. Shortly after they landed a second wave of missles came and even more ground troops touched down on the service. The loric fought extremely bravely but hardly stood a chance because they were unprepared and caught completely by surprise. It took the mogs 3 days to exterminate all life on the planet and at the end of the 3 days, they turned Lorien from a beautiful paradise into a wasteland. Loridas, the last Elder, made sure of the survival of the race, and puts a charm on the Nine successors, in order of when thhey get on the ship, allowing all numbers but one immortal till they are killed in order. Two ships made it off the planet. The first held the nine Cêpan, nine Garde, a Chimæra known as Hadley, and a pilot and the other carrying the final member of the Garde, Ella (only hours old at the time), her surrogate Cêpan, Crayton, two other Cepans, and at least 15 Chimæra. The Garde were destined to become the next generation of Elders and are hoped to return to Lorien one day and repopulate it.

Episode 2 (The Deaths):

Episode 10 (Battle of Paradise, Part 1):
A group of 15 scouts have arrived at Paradise High School. They have already called for reinforcements. Henri tells Mark everything, and is on his way to the school with him. John and Sarah are hiding from the Mogadorian scouts, whom have already killed 5 faculty members. Number Six (who had been tracking them since three's death) meets them there, and they are attacked by a scout outside the room they are in. Six and John kill the scout by throwing it twice against a wall, but not before the scout manages to throw a dagger at Six, paralyzing her arm. Henri, Mark, and Bernie Kosar then show up, and Henri kills two more scouts with a shotgun. They move to the home economics room and barricade themselves in. Henri uses a healing stone and heals Six's arm, while Mark gathers anything he finds useful (two kitchen knives). Six goes outside to look while the others wait in the room, killing one scout in the process. After she comes back, Henri proceeds to kill two more scouts out the window. They run to the gym, and outside of the gym, they are attacked by another two scouts, one of which injures John with a pipe. Henri kills the scout that injured John and the second with his shotgun, after John knocked it out with a trophy. They then go through the tunnel.

Once outside, they are cornered by 20 scouts, who left the tunnel entrance open as a trap. Henri blasts 4 with his shotgun, and John kills 7, before Six tells John and Henri to fall back. Six creates a thunderstorm and kills the rest of them with lighting. The storm scares Bernie Kosar, and he disappears into the woods. Mark tackles a lone scout that followed them, after the scout stabbed Henri in the shoulder. Henri kills the scout with his shotgun after it overpowers Mark. The soldiers and beasts arrive, and the group goes back into the home economics room to get the chest and weapons and use the healing stone on themselves.

After doing so, Henri, John, Mark, Sarah, and Six go back to the gym, and they are attacked by 2 Krauls, one killed by Henri and the other by Six. They try to go back, but then a 30-foot tall Piken attacks them by smashing through the wall. Six, while Henri fires his shotgun 4 times at the beast to little effect, tells John to run to the woods to lead the beast away, and then creates a second thunderstorm. John runs to the forest, while the beast destroys half the school. The beast gets struck by lightning and dies. John heads back, watching as several other Piken demolish the school. On his way back, he is attacked by a soldier. After an epic sword fight and being weakened severely, he kills the soldier with a Mogadorian dagger he stole. A second soldier arrives and throws a dagger at John's back, semi-paralyzing him. Sam arrives, and shoots the soldier in the head with a Revolver, before he (painfully) removes the dagger from John's back. Sam and John go back to the football field, watching as dozens of soldiers (and a few remaining scouts) infiltrate the demolished school. John tells Sam to get to Six and Henri and join the fight. Right then, the thunderstorm created by Six intensifies into an extremely furious superstorm, knocking Sam and John off their feet, separating them.

Episode 11 (Battle of Paradise, Part 2):
During a major battle in the ruins of the school, Henri kills 10 soldiers with his shotgun before running out of ammo and getting knocked unconscious by a soldier. Mark defends himself and kills 5 remaining scouts with a sledgehammer, a kitchen knife, and a Mogadorian handgun he stole. Mark is saved by Six three separate times, including one when he was nearly crushed by a Piken. Sarah injures one soldier with a kitchen knife, and was nearly killed by a Kraul that Mark killed. Six killed 25 soldiers, 2 Piken, and 9 Krauls with her superstorm, and killed 1 soldier with her dagger. While Six is brewing the furious superstorm, protecting the unconscious Henri as well as Sarah and Mark, one of the remaining soldiers lobs a grenade at Six and the explosion nearly kills her, causing the storm to break up. Sam saves Henri, Mark, Sarah, and Six by shooting 4 soldiers keeping them hostage. Henri, just regaining consciousness, orders Sam to carry Six to his truck, and gives Sam the healing stone to use on Six after he applies it to himself, Mark, and Sarah. He then sends Mark and Sarah to safety as well.

After the storm dies down, another 30-foot tall Piken that the storm missed shows up and attacks John. While running from the Piken, John is succumbing to his dagger wound. Then Bernie Kosar arrives to John, and reveals himself to John to be a Loric shapeshifting Chimaera. He morphs into a dragon, and attacks the larger Piken. While Bernie Kosar and the Piken brutally fight, Mark attempts to drag John away, begging him to stand down away from the Piken. Although given serious injuries, Bernie Kosar (with help from John) kills the massive Piken. After he kills the beast, Bernie Kosar reverts to his dog form, and appears to John to die. Henri arrives, and uses some of the loric salt on a weakened John. He then says that Six (who is out cold) and Sam have driven away to safety, and that Sam has the healing stone. When they make it to the football field, a group of 8 remaining soldiers attacks them, along with a smaller Piken. They send the Piken to eat them, and John telepathically communicates with the Piken, telling it to turn on its master. While he is talking to the Piken, one of the soldiers blasts Henri, fatally injuring him. The Piken manages to kill all the soldiers (John kills the soldier that blasted Henri with his first lumen fireball), but dies of its many injuries. Henri dies in John's arms, after talking with John about finding the others and that coming to Paradise wasn't by chance. John is approached by one final scout with a machete. John's systems fail when the loric salt shuts down. John is about to be killed by the scout, but it is then stabbed in the back by Sarah, and the Mogadorians are defeated. The battle ends when Mark, Sarah, and Sam carry John, Bernie Kosar, and Henri's body to safety.

With the return of their legacies and strength, both Nine and Six are able to break free from the rock encasing them. Bernie Kosar also breaks free from his chains.

Six is reunited with Four and the team start to regroup, though Setrákus Ra and the Mogadorians vanish with a large bang (Adamus destroying the armory), leaving Nine stunned on his back. Four vows that they will all stay together and fight their way out of the Dulce base.

Episode 8 (Battle of Dulce, Part 3):
At the same time as the battle, Malcolm Goode and Adamus infiltrate the base speculating that Sam is held prisoner there. They find him and Adamus uses his Earthquake legacy to fight off the advancing mogadorians, including his adopted brother Ivan, so that Sam and his father can escape. Adamus destroys the armory, killing the mogadorians and Ivan as well as trapping himself in the rubble. As Sam and Malcolm escape, they kill several Mogadorian gaurds. Sam and Malcolm are seen driving into the sunset, looking for the Garde. They settle in a hotel in Arkansas.

Adamus wakes up in the rubble and uses his legacy to clear the rubble to get out, he discovers an injured Mogadorian survivor and drags him out of the rubble. The lone survivor is revealed to be Rexicus Saturnus, who at first is irately against Adam, knowing he is a traitor. The two take refuge in a demolished watchtower. Adam meets and befriends Dust, a Chimaera that was being tested on in Dulce. Adam interrogates Rex, and they head for Plum Island, the Mogadorian Chimaera testing facility.

Episode 9 (The Fall of Five):
Number Five burns the Loric symbol of five onto crops in Arkansas, presumably as a call for help. Nine, who had been with the other Garde just hanging out in Chicago, alerts the others to this and Six, John, Sarah, and Bernie Kosar decide to go to Arkansas to find him. Meanwile, Eight and Seven flirt even more, as the two take an unnanounced walk. Ella is heartbroken by Crayton's letter, revealing that she is NOT number ten or a member of the Garde, and that Crayton was only her surrogate Cepan. She says goodbye to them, but Marina, after having a heartfelt conversation with Ella, convinces her to stay. Ella, does, however, get tormented by Setrakus Ra in her dreams and gets horrific, tormenting nightmares.

Adam and Rex, meanwhile, apprehend a pickpocket, retrive over $1,300, and spend it on food and human guns. They hitchhike their way to Alamosa, Colorado, and then board a train to Kansas City, Missouri. Along the way, they are attacked by several Mogadorian scouts, who Adam and Dust easily kill. During this time, Adam and Rex start to gain each other's trust, and even become friends.

Episode 10 (Rendezvous in Arkansas):
In Arkansas, right when John shakes hands withg Five, the first wave of a total of 65 Mogadorians shot blaster fire. John's bracelet saved him from getting hit, but it sent Six toppling backwards, so she turned invisible and started to create a storm. Sarah took cover behind a nearby parking car and begun to shoot at the incoming Mogadorians. Five did nothing to protect himself as he appears to be shocked and he would have been hurt, if he hadn't been standing close to John and his bracelet hadn't protected both of them. Soon they both took shelter behind the Boggy Creek Monster statue.

Three Mogadorians tried to flank Sarah, but John yanked their blasters out of their hands and Sarah shot the closest one right between the eyes and BK killed the rest of them. After that BK stayed with Sarah to protect her. John attempted to break Five from his trance, who admitted that he had never encountered a mogadorian before, which John and Six were unhappy about. Six unleashes the storm she created on top of the mogadorian ship and managed to bring down the ship. Then she turned invisible to kill the rest of the mogadorians. John told Five to remain behind before  he stepped out from cover to fight the mogadorians. A mogadorian tried to shoot John as soon as he stepped out of cover, but Six -  still invisible - killed him before he had a chance to shoot. Then John handed Sarah a Mogadorian blaster since her gun was out of bullets and instructed her to cover him while he would finish off the rest of the Mogadorians. BK flew off to kill more Mogadorians.

A pair of Mogadorians, who took cover behind a gas station, shot at John and his shield protected him. John hesitated to throw fireballs at them, because he didn't want to blow up the gas station. So he yanked away their blasters with telekinesis and challenged them to come forward. Once they did John sent a fireball towards them killing both. A group of Mogadorians tried to surround John, but Five did use his Externa legacy, turned his hand into rubber and yanked John away. Meanwhile Sarah shot the Mogadorians, but one of them had managed to skirt pass her blaster fire and charged at Five and John. Five used  Externa againg to turn himself into steel, and when the Mog hit his head with a sword, it bounced off Five's head, Five delivered a haymaker and crushed the Mog's skull. He admitted, that he had never done that before while Six killed the remaining mogs. Just then they had thought the battle was over they heared a low rumble and Six came running while crying 'Incoming'. John told Sarah to get back, anticipating a piken. Sarah ran for cover.

An unknown monster which looked like a centipede with cracked and leathery skin in the size of a tanker truck appeared. It had several rows of jagged teeth and a single unblinking eye. It chased Six and she wasn't faster than the monster, so Six managed barely not to get crushed by its tail by throwing herself to the side and stabbing it with her sword, but the monster recoiled, jerking the sword out of her hand. John asked Five to fly him over the monster so he could throw fireballs at him. Meanwhile BK jumped on the monsters back, giving Six enough time to get some distance between her and the monster and turned invisible. Five flew with John over the monster and John threw fireballs at him, but the centipede spotted them and tried to snatch them. This startled Five and he zipped backwards, causing John to fall on the ground right in front of the centipede. John ingnited his Lumen all over his body, so he could burn the insides of the monster if it swallowed him, but just then Malcolm Goode shot centipede's eye and killed it, along with five remaining Mog soldiers. Sam has reunited with them, and introduces his father to the group. Unfortunately, Five loses the Xitharis stone.

Episode 11 (Memorial and Respect):
Four leads Five, Malcolm, and Sam through Nine's penthouse (after Nine insults the three of them), and the group has a dinner party together, all of them making toasts and memorials to the fallen Cepans (after Nine brings out the Champang). During this, Malcolm tells the group of Adam (all of the Garde disbelieve him of this story) and his meeting of Pitticus Lore, who told him to help the Garde all he can. Ella is tormented again, and when Marina tries to hold her hand, she takes a glimpse of the terror she is going through.

Rex and Adam have made it to Philidelphia, and are attacked by a squadron of Mogadorians. Rex hides in an ally, while Adam and Dust kill all of them, before Adam passes out.

Episode 12 (The Flaw of the Cause):
The episode begins with Rex and Adam, as Rex drives Adam and Dust to Plum Island. Rex tells Adam that he still believes in the flawed cause, but he cares about Adam so much that he will help him.

Seven, Four, Eight, and Nine take their chest items to Malcolm as they examine them. Eight finds an antler that attracts Chimaeras and drives Bernie Kosar crazy. Later, Nine disturbs Five, who was playing a CoD game of some sort, and insults him for being useless. Five goes into steel form with his Externa legacy, and Nine punches him, causing his hand to break. John, who had just finished making fake ID's for the Garde with Sam, breaks up the skirmish and heals Nine's hand.

Later, Five flies away for unknown reasons, while Bernie Kosar uses the antler that Eight had to call out to his fellow Chimaera on Plum Island. We then cut to Rex and Adam, where we see many Chimaeras in Plum Island, including Dust, who answer the call and cause amuck in the base. Rex ties up Adam as pretense of getting him into the base to get the Chimaeras.

Episode 13 (Training and Weaknesses):
All seven Garde, BK, Sam and Sarah train in the lecture hall where the Garde use their abilities to their full extent. Seven comes out as victor, humiliating the others. Malcolm says that they are a force to be reckoned with.

Four and Sarah take a trip to Chicago's Lincoln Park Zoo, where John uses his animal telepathy to make the animals do fun but humane things. John notices three Mogadorian scouts who are trying to intercept a letter. John kills them, but not before the last one tells John that they have a traitor. Four gives the Mogadorian letter to Malcolm Goode, who starts to translate it. Sam and Six, meanwhile, spend some private time on the roof. Ella is possessed (supposedly) by Setrakus Ra. John tries to wake her up, but in her demonic state she grabs John, causing him too, to be possessed. Sarah separates them, while Five decides to take Six, Seven, Eight, and Nine to the everglades where his chest supposedly is.

Rex kills the Mogadorians that guarded Adam's cell, and helps Adam disguise as a Mogadorian officer. Adam and Rex arrives at the building that house the Chimæras. Adam kills the Mogadorian scientists that experimented on the Chimæras, and proceed to release five of them. Adam and Rex learn of the Mogadorians' imminent plan to assault the John Hancock Center. Rex bids farewell to Adam as he leaves to join the Mogadorian soldiers for the attack. Dust returns to Adam's side as he fends off the Mogadorians.

The remaining Garde from Five to Nine depart Chicago for the Everglades to recover Five's Chest. Meanwhile, the translation of the Mogadorian parchment is completed. Sam and Malcolm are shocked to find the parchment being a duplicate copy of Malcolm's notes on the Garde's Chest items, and Sam accuses his father of unknowingly sending the notes to the Mogadorians. Adam escapes Plum Island and drive towards Chicago in a stolen car, accompanied by Dust and the five Chimæras he saved. Adam successfully calls Sam and warns him of the imminent Mogadorian attack.

Episode 15 (Betrayal in the Everglades):
Five leads the other Garde into the swamp where he buried his chest, and summons a 20-foot-tall mutant Gator on the group, and Eight and Six fight it with their legacies. Suddenly Five (in steel form) punched Six hard in the head, knocking her out and held Marina and Eight with his telekinesis, then he expanded his arm grabbing Nine and dunked him in the water in an attempt to drown him.

Five told them how he had come across the mogs and how they had taken him in. Then he pulled Nine out of the water and threw him spine first into a tree and summoned the mutant alligator on Eight who fought it. Marina tried to get to Six, but Five held her back claiming she would never understand. He also revealed that Nine's penthouse is getting trashed by mogs as they were speaking, as 'The Great Leader' wanted Ella, horrifying Marina.

Nine threw a tree branch at Five, distracting him from Marina, giving her a chance to heal Six and Eight managed to finish off the beast.

Nine used his mind to pull out his pipe staff, but Five in his steel form catched it, snapped it in half and tried to kill Nine, but Eight stood between and tried to calm Five down. Marina realized that Five had the two balls that changed his skin, so she used her telekinesis to break open his hand, making him drop the balls.

Five started to cry at his defeat and Marina and Eight tried to confort him, but Nine shouted out 'Crying like a girl now?!', angering Five, so he shoved Eight aside and flew towards Nine with a blade in the hand, attempting to kill him, but at the last second Eight teleported between them and the blade drove right into Eight's heart. He's stumbled towards Marina with his hands outstretched and collapsed. His death was confirmed as the scar burned across the others ankles.

Marina rushed over to Eight's body and immediately tried to heal him, even though he's dead. Five showed complete remorse at what he'd done, as he tried to comfort Marina, a Mogadorian Ship decended from the sky, implying that Five had them as backup waiting. Suddenly an enraged Marina started to get the icy feeling of her legacy, but different somehow and 'comforting'. The area around them started to radiate cold and Five got chilly. Icicles shot out from the ground, one impaled Five's foot and another shot straight into his face, taking out one of his eyes.

Six, now recovered, had Nine over her shoulder and shouted for Marina to leave. Before their departing Marina saw Eight's body enclosed in the ice, she wanted to take him with her, but with the mogs closing in there wouldn't be enough time.

Marina run to Six, grabbing her hand and they turned invisible.

Episode 16 (Ambush in Chicago):
Shortly after Adam's warning, about 50 Mogadorians ambushed the penthouse. Sarah emerged from her room and tried to go to John's room, but Malcolm says he'd protect John and Ella and Sam and Sarah should get weapons. BK battled with the mogadorians that had gotten inside while Malcolm shot at them.

Sarah and Sam tried to make it to Lecture Hall to get some guns but a mog had blocked their path. Sarah hit him in the head with a vase and when he turned around Sam took the mog's sword and killed him. They made it to the Lecture Hall and they threw Sandor's clutter to block the door, but it only slowed down mogs a couple of seconds and eventually they blew up the door to get through. Sam turned on the Lecture Hall's programming and they both fired at the mogadorians killing all of them.

Suddenly Sam noticed that Sarah was hit in the leg and he helped her walk and they went to John and Ella's room grabbing more guns on their way out. BK came into view, then he looked at Sam and flew up on the roof to hold off the mogs. Sam realized he was saying goodbye. He wasn't seen after that and it is unknown what happened to him. Once they got into John and Ella's room they found Malcolm's body was draped across them. Sam rushed to his side and noticed a gaping wound in his abdomen and that he was barely alive. Sarah took Ella and urged Sam to grab John and get out, but he refused to leave his father.

Meanwhile John (in Ella's dream and 'vision' of the possible future) walked in an empty deserted street of Washington, he discovered that the mogs had taken over earth and were leading a number of human prisoners to the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. He saw Setrakus Ra on a throne with Ella, who appeared to be drugged watching on, and also noticed Five was apparently working with the mogs. John then observed Six and Sam being lead to the throne where Setrakus asked Ella, revering her as 'Heir', what to do with them and to John's horror Ella commanded to execute them and so Five did, resulting in a scar on John's foot.

John finally woke up and saw an ambush happening, so he pushed a mog out of the window with his telekinesis. Then John watched Sarah firing at the mogs who have taken cover, but he realized that the mogs were holding fire because Sarah was holding Ella, foreshadowing the future.

When Sarah's canon run out of ammunition, she retreated and shut the bedroom door, but the mogs cracked a hole through it, stabbing Sarah's shoulder in the process. They grabbed Ella and retreated.

John, after a tough desicion between his friends and Ella, but knowing the mogs wouldn't hurt Ella, chose to heal Malcolm and Sarah, not wanting Sam to lose his dad. John felt the new burnt scar on his ankle, confirming another thing that's true from his vision.

John didn't tell them about it and what he saw in his vision, but swears they'll save Ella and asked where Bernie Kosar is, Sam mentioned he had gone to the roof to hold off the mogs and he hadn't returned yet, so he probably didn't make it.
