7	Gaea is a resident of Fauna Island, a peaceful place where its inhabitants live freely and safely under her protection. Armed with her SuperStrength, [[{{Flight}} ability to fly]] and iconic yellow and black SpikyHair, she's fought off all who dared to endanger the island and the people who live there. One faithful day, the island suddenly comes under attack by a recurring foe: [[ArchEnemy Captain Dr. Surriv]]. Planting his [[MechaMooks mechanical army]] all over the island, their orders are to completely turn every part of it into rubble; upon which he'll build his ultimate base of operations on his journey to [[TakeOverTheWorld world conquest]]. Learning of the invasion, Gaea wastes no time at all getting into action to save the day once again.
