#2

Synopsis

Rhett Shaw returns to his rural village after studying science at college. Whit Carter challenges Shaw to a fight to continue the family feud. Shaw declines and suggests they forget the feud. Shaw drives home but is stopped by a force bubble. The aliens discuss their duel where they use the natural forces of a planet to fight. The villagers shelter in a cave to escape the battle. Shaw hears the aliens telepathically and learns that they have each won 127 victories on other planets. Shaw discovers the alien weapons are vulnerable to nitric acid and they leave Earth after shaking hands.
