Gamera and the Terran UFO in Gamera vs. Guiron

Late one night, the children Akio and Tom witness the arrival of a mysterious spacecraft on Earth. The following morning, the pair rode their bicycles to investigate the spacecraft. When they arrived, they entered its control room, which activated the craft. The spacecraft suddenly powered up and took flight, flying up through the atmosphere into space as it rapidly journeyed across the Solar System towards Terra. Gamera noticed the spaceship departing and took off in hot pursuit, but was unable to catch it before it lost him. The spaceship crash-landed on Terra, though the children were unharmed and later met the vehicles' owners - the Terrans.

Later, after the kids let Guiron loose from his underground home, the kaiju began to attack the base. While repairing the Terran UFO, the two Terrans tried to flee, only for Guiron to cut the ship clean in half midair, mortally wounding one of the Terrans as the two halves of the ship fell back to the surface. After the remaining Terran and Guiron were killed, Gamera picked up the two halves of the Terran UFO and welded them back together using his flame breath. While the vessel was no longer functional, it did provide an optimal transport to take the children back to Earth, and once Akio and Tom were aboard, Gamera took the ship in his mouth and flew back to Earth. Gamera was greeted by a large crowd upon landing and gently placed the ship on the ground to allow Tom and Akio to exit.
