Stars of Fire
A volley of meteorites start falling on The Place of Stars. The news brings professor Tiber and his team rushing to the place. Tiber has asked Kirby to come along, for no other reason than to share the expenses. Dorian Honey and Mumu Amour also join the team. Two locals, Ramon and Luis, secretly follow the scientists to the camp. Tiber finds out gold and diamond in a piece of meteorite with the aid of a magnifying glass. Kirby is already wearing those glasses, so he can tell just by looking at it. When they are discussing the finds in super loud voices, Ramon and Luis overhear. Now they want it all. They kidnap the ladies, take them to a cave and torture them by feeding them clam soup. Ramon rides away to blackmail the scientist into giving up the gold. Luis stays back to cook more soup for the ladies.
