Sky Command -Type 1- Episode 2(Start With Episode 1!) "Fallen Nanotopia" Copyright 1999-2011 by AllA Erawa Viacad A strategic sci-fi trilogy chronicling World War 3 an epic battle fought throughout the Sol System by the Western and Eastern Blocks to gain control over enough elemental (703) 402-4375 resources to rule over humanity. AllAViacad@GMail.com FALSE BETRAYAL INT. EASTERN FACILITY IN JAPAN HERMES You have the designs. SPY 1 For every ship in the Eastern fleet. Hermes takes the designs which are in a disk. HERMES Don't worry we will win this war. SPY 1 Only if this false betrayal works. Hermes looks over at Spy 1 with some hesitance- HERMES Don't worry the side of right shall win. Hermes walks face first into his waiting STEX throwing the designs into the air and catching them with STEX hands as it closes around him. SPY 1 Just worry about getting out of here safely. HERMES (STEX TONE) Huh safety has nothing to do with it. Spy 1 just shakes his head in disbelief. Hermes opens the clear door to an 2M long airlock, the clear door seals behind him. STEX immediately come into the room- SPY 1 They're onto us- Spy 1 gets enclosed in a STEX. (False Betrayal) Hermes slams his hand on the open button to his right the clear door at the other side of the airlock to reveal a row of Maglev bikes parked along a merging volume next an cylindrical evacuated tube highway with mostly cars flashing past from South to North. Immediately thereafter STEX open both airlock doors and begin shooting plasma out them at Hermes. But Hermes has already leaped 4M to land on the maglev bike closest to the tube highway. Hermes's momentum starts it on its way and begins it immediately begins accelerating down the merging volume. INT. MAGLEV TUBE Swing Camera above maglev bike zoom out of command center maglev road system display. EASTERN SKY COMMANDER Activate road blocks in sector 19 of the citadel. SPECILIST 1 Activating blocks. Show road blocks coming up just where the red dot was going. Zoom quickly into red dot until we perceive what Hermes perceives. Show for the top half of the screen what Hermes sees with his eyes. Show in the bottom right a view of what obstacles are there near Hermes. Show in the bottom left the command center with the map of the road system. EASTERN SKY COMMANDER He can't possibly dodge the cars with this kind of relative velocity. The road blocks ahead and veers into the highway where he is still going much -1274 km/h slower than the other cars. SPECILIST 1 He is dodging them. Hermes is frantically dodging the cars zooming past him. SUBCOMMANDER 1 Sir dragons are being launched down the road. (False Betrayal) EASTERN SKY COMMANDER Send intercept dragons. EASTERN SKY COMMANDER How is he avoiding them? SPECILIST 1 He is driving by wire using his neural interlacing. EASTERN SKY COMMANDER Damn he is good slow down to a stop all traffic in this Southern Tokyo distinct. Hermes reaches the velocity of all nearby cars, and immediately begins goes faster than traffic. SPECILIST 1 Slowing down traffic. Hermes already going much faster than most traffic now is going even faster. His frantic jerkiness become even more frantic. HERMES (STEX TONE) I need an exit. Show in upper left hand corner western sky commander. WESTERN SKY COMMANDER Dragons are already on their way. Show in upper left hand corner Dragons coming in and dumping plasma in the shape of a long elliptical hole in the maglev highway. EASTERN SKY COMMANDER Stop them from making that hole! The ellipse is cut and the section falls through onto now parked cars. Eastern Dragons begin assaulting the Western Dragons now flying away from the hole. Hermes flies out of the elliptical hole. AIR. ABOVE JAPAN EASTERN SKY COMMANDER Don't let any of them dock with Hermes. (False Betrayal) Western Dragons try to reach Hermes but each one is intersected by Eastern dragons which pull them away from Hermes. SUBCOMMANDER 1 More enemy dragons coming in. Hermes spreads his wings. EASTERN SKY COMMANDER Keep them from making a new hole and stop traffic for that sector. SPECILIST 1 Sir that sector forms a hub with the entire Tokyo grid. Hermes makes a 90 degree turn, western and eastern dragons are still clashing in the sky. EASTERN SKY COMMANDER Then slow down all Tokyo traffic. SPECILIST 1 Sir are you serious. EASTERN SKY COMMANDER HE'S GOT ALL SHIP DESIGNS! SPECILIST 1 Yes sir slowing down all traffic in all sectors. SUBCOMMANDER 1 We've stopped them from making the hole. EASTERN SKY COMMANDER Good lay a trap for Hermes when he gets to the tube, he'll have no where to go. The Eastern Dragons spread out creating a single spot for him to land, to trap him. HERMES (STEX TONE) Rocket boosters. Hermes's wings fold in and rocket boosters slams his bike forward. Hermes flies directly into the trap crouching down to accelerate through the dragon's legs. (False Betrayal) EXT. AREA AROUND MAGLEV TUBE EASTERN SKY COMMANDER Send the dragons after him PUMP HIM FULL OF PLASMA!! The Eastern dragons begin accelerating past Hermes. As they come down on him one by one he dodges them. The Eastern dragons begin clashing with Western dragons. Hermes moves up quickly then down quickly bounces off the tube then up drastically doing a quadruple front flip in the air before slamming back against the tube. SPECILIST 1 He's approaching open traffic. Hermes begins rapidly decelerating. SPECILIST 1 He's slowing down. EASTERN SKY COMMANDER Dragons come down on him spare no vehicles. Hermes begins weaving in between the now stopped traffic. Dragons are firing at him, but Hermes always avoids them by either turning or going under traffic. HERMES (STEX TONE) I've had enough fun dragons are getting feisty. Get me outta here. WESTERN SKY COMMANDER Launch all dragons we are getting those ship designs. The west launches dragons which cluster together. EASTERN SKY COMMANDER Do not engage enemy dragons concentrate on hitting Hermes. More dragons come all around Hermes tossing and firing at cars to get at Hermes who goes below and around traffic. Hermes shoots up out of traffic. AIR. ABOVE JAPAN Eastern Dragons are swarming towards him when the school of Western dragons envelops him. (False Betrayal) The school slams into traffic throwing cars everywhere before turning around and flying back towards Western controlled space. Eastern dragons come from all direction pounding plasma at the school. One by one the Western dragons peel off to engage the Eastern school. As the school approaches space all but 9 of the dragons peel off. Hermes's dragon is in the center of the other 8 now firing plasma to defend themselves with the support of space launched plasma. SPC. SPACE ABOVE JAPAN As Hermes approaches the docking bay of the space colony the last 8 dragons peel away from him to finish consuming the enemy dragons. Hermes flies into an airlock and docks with the cylindrical station at low gravity. INT. LOW GEE PORTION OF LARGE SPACE COLONY Hermes Gets off walking through a cheering crowd taking off his helmet and shedding his STEX. Hermes makes it to the podium and immediately looks over to the front and center teleprompter. Hermes's podium overlooks a gradation that is full of people all the way down to the normal gravity levels. HERMES I have been to the East those people in their direct internet democracy are no freer then the people of the West in their representative democracy. CUT TO: BIG VIDEO GAME EXT. FIELD IN UNITED STATES - NOON You see through the scope of a sniper riffle, crosshairs thin slightly as they converge on a single tiny red dot. Circular scope fills entire screen sharp transition to surrounding blackness. 14.3X is displayed in white in the lower right hand corner. United States infantrymen are talking, while red dot is in between them hovering over the top of a machine gun barely visible over the sand bags. The red dot, slightly shaky, but steadied a bit by the advanced steady aim, moves to the head of the right one. No hesitance, Bang/Whoosh. His head basically explodes by the enormous round. The 2nd bullet down in a clip of 10, is loaded semi- automatically up into the chamber. Scope is beginning to be re-aimed to the sand bags, but as the scope moves down from the recoil, the startled soldier gets his wits to himself and hits the deck, keeping himself under the cover of the sand bags. The red dot moves down on the bottom of the sand bag structure. Dot stabilizes and suddenly Bang. Zeus fires 9 more shots at the bottom of the sand bag. CUT TO: EXT. GRASSY CLEARING Zeus is in forest camouflage. Zeus's right thigh houses a large pistol, he is wearing a thin helmet. The riffle's strap is slack about his neck and soldiers. At his feet is the corpse of a western sniper, with grass and stuff stuffed into his helmet. Zeus is standing there as his gun recoils, he stabilizes it. He ejects his clip. The clip falls out. Zeus bends over and takes another rigid clip from the corpse at his feet and shoves it into his riffle. It clicks as it loads the first bullet automatically. Zeus throws his riffle behind his back and pulls out his automatic/semiautomatic standard infantry pistol. (1 Big Video Game) Zeus begins to run as quietly as possible along the perimeter of the clearing, aiming always at the machine gun position. Zeus begins to run closer to the sand bags, as he lowers his profile, and decreases his speed. Zeus sidesteps around the position, just around the partially decapitated corpse. The other man is putting a makeshift tourniquet on his massively wounded leg. Zeus hesitates with his pistol aimed, arms outstretched, as the man lifts up his assault riffle off of his chest. Zeus fires three very tightly consecutive shots of the pistol. The riffle falls onto the instantly dead man's neck. Faint speaking on 2nd dead guy's radio- WESTERN COMMANDER (VO) Unit 23 do you copy. Repeat DO YOU COPY. Zeus's eyes widen. Zeus takes the radio. ZEUS I'm here. WESTERN COMMANDER (VO) What's your unit designation. ZEUS Uhh. Uhh. WESTERN COMMANDER (VO) I SAID WHAT IS YOUR UNIT DESIGNATION. Zeus turns off the radio. ZEUS Our surprise is gone; all units assault the base repeat all units assault the base. COLONEL Who is this, that's my call, wh- The sound of a new Humvee with an open top, (electronic of course) in the forest becomes audible. ZEUS End com. Without thinking Zeus holsters his pistol and mans the machine gun turning it 180 degrees while Zeus stands on the other side of the sand bags. Zeus sees the humvee with a mounted machine gun come out of the trees and Zeus opens fire on it. (1 Big Video Game) The humvee machine gunner is killed by Zeus. One man in the humvee fires at Zeus and manages to hit Zeus in the bicep. Zeus falls to the ground and picks up the riffle that fell on 2nd dead guys neck. Zeus fires at at the humvee with his left arm. The person in the passenger seat dies. The driver has been shot in the hip and pulls out his side arm, as he stops the Humvee. Zeus gets up and quickly places a triplet of bullets in his chest with his pistol. Zeus throws him out of the car. Zeus takes out his field knife and cuts what muscle and ligaments are holding his arm together. He also has to cut his shredded uniform at that point. Zeus is intently focused on what he is doing and strangely shows almost no sign of pain. He pulls out a flare and stops the bleeding out of his arm by charring the muscle. COLONEL (VO) All units assault the west side of the base. ZEUS Colonel I need 2 men to help me, I have just taken over control of a Humvee and a machine gun position. EXT. MILITARY CONVOY ON ROAD The colonel has his upper torso out of a large tank. He is talking into his thin transparent mic, protruding from the helmet. COLONEL What did you say? EXT. DRIVERS SEAT OF HUMVEE Zeus is looking at his field screen currently projected in front of him. A dynamic map has been projected with all friendly and enemy forces on it. Zeus zooms in on his position, a green triangle with a 56 in it is near his position, represented by a purple triangle. ZEUS Send Unit 56 to me now I can provide cover for the assault. (1 Big Video Game) EXT. MILITARY CONVOY ON ROAD COLONEL Very well Zeus, there is a hill over looking the base camp there. I will send you a couple of shoot point missiles; I want you people to paint them on the mortars. After that just provide cover for our assault. OK? EXT. DRIVERS SEAT OF HUMVEE Zeus sees the ping on his map as it automatically zooms out to show where the hill is relative to him. Basically there is a stream at the bottom of the hill and the convoy is on a road going towards the enemy facility, which is just beyond the stream. ZEUS That's just what I'm going to do, thanks. Zeus touches the marker representing quad 56- ZEUS Unit 5 I will be coming by in a US truck soon to pick you up remain in your position till I arrive. (QUAD 56 FIRST RANK) Ok unit 9. Zeus walks over to the machine gun, breaks the clip, picks it up by the barrel and difficulty puts it into the humvee. He walks back and gets a olive green box of ammo with an olive green rope handle to put in the truck along with a riffle and a couple grenades. Zeus gets some of the ammo from the dead guy and attaches it to the ammo of his riffle, which is still resting on the driver seat of the Humvee. Zeus gets in and starts to drive to unit 56's position, which is in a forest. ZEUS Hey what's up get in. They all get in. Zeus scoots over and lets 56-3 a blond woman drive. Zeus shows the driver the hill where they are to fire upon the base and he starts the car and drives towards it. In a short while they view the foot hill overlooking the base. (1 Big Video Game) Asphalt and small buildings, but in at the far edge of the compound is a massive building, looking almost like a black medieval castle. ZEUS (VERY COMMANDING) Stop here, We have to paint the mortars. You three go! They get out of the car and start walking to where the trees cleared and overlook the base and the mountains beyond. They lie on the ground and prop up their assault riffles on bipods and look through the scope. They aim their digital scopes at each of the mortars mounted just around the central building. One by one each of the three eastern commandos gives Zeus a thumbs up. Zeus is looking through an assault riffle of his own at a tank moving out of a warehouse. ZEUS Ok we are prepared to receive 4 PS missiles. INT. COMMAND TANK ON ROAD, GOING FAST, VERY BUMPY The colonel is looking at his command screen, where little red dots represent painted targets. COLONEL Affirmative, 4. The colonel signals the launch of the missiles. EXT. CONVOY The missiles lift off from a specialized missile launch vehicle. INT. COMMAND TANK ON ROAD, GOING FAST, VERY BUMPY COLONEL They will arrive soon. I am mobilizing forces immediately. See you at the fortress. End com. (quietly) The cavalry leads the charge. EXT. CONVOY The Colonel's forces move up onto the fortress at a very high speed. Camera looks down on convoy as missiles fly over camera camera swings around to keep track of 4 Camera zooms, and follows the 4 PS missiles in formation as they fly just over the trees of the hill where Zeus is posted. They split up and detonate on each of their targets. (1 Big Video Game) Camera stops a good distance away. EXT. JUST OUTSIDE WESTERN SILO COMPLEX The alarm goes off in the compound and people attempting to provide damage control. Zoom in on the officer in charge of the commando as he screams- FIRST WESTERN BASE COMMANDER Everybody to their positions on the south wall. First Western Base Commander presses his ear of his headset. FIRST WESTERN BASE COMMANDER Mr. President I am being assaulted by a formidable US team requesting reinforcements and air and space cover immediately. I don't think we can hold out for lo- Just then a riffle shot caused his brains to be splattered away on the ground where it forms a 20 cm radius stain. Show a person near him- RANDOM WESTERN GRUNT 1 Oh shit! EXT. ON HILL OVERLOOKING WESTERN SILO COMPLEX Zoom out to random enemy grunt 1 being seen through Zeus's scope, boom he has a whole in his chest. It was the same western riffle Zeus used earlier. has the original machine gun mounted on the grassy dirt, and is shooting violently into the compound. Soldiers firing at Zeus and his commandos get a lucky hit and 56-2 goes down. Show 4 humvees speed into the compound 2 of them immediately crash after the drivers are killed by machine gun fire. The men and women on the other 2 humvees get out and rush into the compound. Show 5 guys run out into through the open, to fire at the Easterners. Zeus snipes 1 down the others don't notice for the second until the next one falls. The other 3 run back towards the bunker as the troops already in the compound spray the other down as Zeus puts his last 4 bullets carelessly into the fray. (1 Big Video Game) Then the foot infantry finally catch up and 30 units begin to run across the tarmac to begin surrounding the heavily guarded ICBM installation that the whole base was built to protect. ZEUS Alright, they don't need any support from here anymore. Lets get to ground level. Alright lets go. The trio speed down to the tarmac, but during the short trip as they were crossing the stream- EXT. GROUND JUST IN FRONT OF WESTERN SILO COMPLEX AND INT. VIDEO GAME EASTERN SPACE COMMAND CENTER SESA Hello Zeus I am the Supreme Eastern Space Admiral. ZEUS Hi. SESA The colonel's tank was just destroyed, they decoded our radio transmissions and triangulated his position, boom. We've rescrambled our audio, but he is still dead. If you'll notice you are now our field commander. Zeus looks down at his shoulder to see his 2 bars turn into a star. ZEUS wOhw SESA I have to retire to other business, good day. ZEUS Where the hell are you going? SESA A naval battle requires my expertise. (1 Big Video Game) ZEUS Have fun. Hey stop here, we will wait for them to secure the base before we drive in. ZEUS Attention all units I am now the operational commander. Let's surround the facility and perform a uniform rush. Remember Western reinforcements are due in 60 minutes. The rush is to commence at End transmission. Relay temp command to Kim. Computer. COMPUTER Affirmative. ZEUS Get me an immediate transmission with the Supreme Eastern Space Armiral. COMPUTER Performing...connecting in 3..2..1 SESA Yes Field commander. You called. EXT. TARMAC OF WESTERN SILO COMPLEX Zeus is shuffling through the same map, but way zoomed out. Zeus is looking at the red dots way off from him and his green dots. Zeus remembers who he is talking to- ZEUS Sir, our latest intelligence tells us that the west is going to attack us with heavy land units by 15:10. We can take the air bombardment until then, but we will only be able to hold out against those heavies for 10 minutes. ZEUS At 15:20 we are definitely gone. I will definitely take total control over the installation in 40 minutes, probably 30 minutes. That gives us a 20 minute window to launch the birds. YOU need to secure space within the hour, maybe in 50 minutes. (1 Big Video Game) SESA Are you crazy, half the entire fleet is above you not to mention their flagship, I couldn't take them out in a- RANDOM EASTERN GRUNT 1 FIGHTERS!!!!! SESA (OVERLAPPING WITH RANDOM EASTERN GRUNT AND ZEUS) goddamn week so I wa- ZEUS End transmission. ZEUS EVERYBODY MOVE TO THE COVER OF THE CENTRAL NUCLEAR SILO. DRIVER But sir we haven't secured it yet ZEUS Just drive! Set up anti-missile laser cannons immediately around the premises. All persons with PS missiles set to heat homing and wait just outside to fire on my mark. FAST! The wave of fighters became multiple dots instead of 1. Zeus looks thought the scope of his assault riffle. ZEUS ABOUT 20 OF THE BASTARDS. ALL F-43S, AND B-6S, IN A UNIFORM V FORMATION. The first wave of missiles drew near the 3 laser cannons started firing short bursts detonating the missiles instantly. One missile got through; now only 2 laser canons remain. As the fighters grew near. ZEUS Prepare missiles, on my mark, hold, hold, HOLD, FIRE! Just as the planes were beginning to fire their first volley of bullets, the missiles were fired within a 1/2 second of one another. The planes fired laser bursts to destroy the missiles but because of the short range only a couple were destroyed. The Bombers dropped their first wave of bombs destroying the last laser cannons. They flew over at 100M above the ground. As they were turning Zeus talks to everybody- (1 Big Video Game) ZEUS Don't worry about firing another volley of PS just get back inside. Zeus then looks through his assault riffle scope, he hits with his hand the side of the car. ZEUS Gunner, man it. As the planes swung around in a 20 Gee arc, the machine gun was being fired at them. Zeus sees a small dot fly out of one of the fighters. ZEUS Oh Shit, that's at us, get out NOW! Zeus jumps out and into a shoulder roll on the shoulder with no arm the driver does the same but as Zeus and the driver guy get up to run the last sprint towards the bunker the gunner continues to shoot at the planes. One of the last 9 planes goes down on the tarmac, as the missile hits the humvee. When the machine guns are fired at Zeus and his comrade they are both running. A stream of bullets hits the ground to the left and forward of Zeus. Zeus stops in his tracks by sliding his feet forward and sliding to a halt. His feet are away from the bullet stream. Blood spills into the air as Zeus looks over to his comrade who is not so lucky. Zeus gets up and finishes the 20M sprint towards the installation. He barley makes it inside. CUT TO: INT. INSIDE THE SILO ZEUS How is the takeover going? KIM Good. Kim says as one of his men gets shoot while they were crouched, another dead body lay near him. KIM I'm about to finish the job just give me a little peace, OK? ZEUS OK. (1 Big Video Game) You continue to hear the voice as the current temp leader throws 2 grenades into the hallway where the West was shooting from. KIM go. They went, and died KIM FUCKING BULLSHIT BASTARDS they've got the whole security force in there, we will have to flank them. Kim looks around for a couple of seconds in thought, everybody is looking at him. KIM Hey set C-7 explosives on that door that... that was ... RANDOM EASTERN GRUNT 2 Locked sir. KIM Yea Locked. Blow it to hell. RANDOM EASTERN GRUNT 2 Will do mam. While he says this he begins to put a 1.5cm diameter tube of C-7, all the way around the door. He backs away- RANDOM EASTERN GRUNT 2 Detonate. The C-7 detonates and he runs thought the smoke. He turns the corner and fires upon 3 men who are positioned behind a knocked over metal table. KIM Alright, you 4 go around to where they blew the door, it is a left up then straight on your right. Kim motions the way. QUAD LEADER OK, bye. The leader goes down the hall a few steps fires a few shots. Random eastern grunt 2 walks through the machine gun nest/hallway. (1 Big Video Game) RANDOM EASTERN GRUNT 2 Its clear. KIM Hey come back they cleared the position. Lets go! INT. SILO CONTROL ROOM WESTERN LIEUTENANT Sir they are on their way here now we are the only people left to defend the control station. WESTERN COLONEL Shit, lets take as many of them down as possible. WESTERN LIEUTENANT Sir I recommend that we destroy all of this equipment before they get here, it will stall their ability to command the nukes. WESTERN COLONEL But our armies are on their way to take this facility back, and there is reason because the fleet above us can shoot down all of the ICBMs. WESTERN LIEUTENANT But what if they wanted to destroy the ICBMs. WESTERN COLONEL Well they could do that manually. A young private pointing at the monitor of a security camera. WESTERN PRIVATE SIR HERE THEY COME! They immediately get in positions to fire at the incoming troops. The door opens, a flashbang goes off, and the lights go out. Hear people run in and controlled assault riffle fire. After a bunch of firing and a short silence. EASTERN SOLDIER Ok turn the lights back on. The lights turn on and all of the Westerners lay dead on the ground, no one else died. Zeus walks in- (1 Big Video Game) ZEUS Tech guy get to work. How long is it going to take. TECH GUY All I have to do is disable communications, upload the coordinates, and trick it to below defcon 5. 10 minutes maybe more. ZEUS Cool hurry up, its 14:52 already. Open up a com to the SESA. Admiral sorry I cut you off back then, I had to deal with the fighters. CUT TO: INT. KRAKATAU BRIDGE SESA It's alright, but I am not going to be able to take out the US navy. ZEUS Look try to find a way to nuke them. SESA There are no nukes on this ship. ZEUS What about the Fusion based engine? Can you jettison it. SESA No, the goddamn thing is embedded. ZEUS Well just fucking ram them or something. SESA Hell no we would lose our naval superiority if it failed. ZEUS But it won't fail it is too simple. We need this victory. We can get an unconditional surrender if we succeed. We have to take the risk. SESA Fine, sounds like fun I will look into it. Is it possible. (1 Big Video Game) SOMEBODY WE CAN'T SEE Yes, Yes it is. SESA TO A DIFFERENT PERSON Ensign, ramming speed. EASTERN ENSIGN Excuse me sir. SESA I said RAMMING speed. Set a collision trajectory and go at our maximum acceleration. EASTERN ENSIGN Yes Sir. SESA When I say maximum speed I mean above the safe acceleration 100% nuclear thrusters. How fast can we really go? EASTERN ENSIGN I guess. SESA Make it so. CUT OUT TO WINDOW THEN TO LIBERTY: INT. INSIDE THE LIBERTY'S BRIDGE OFFICER SWC the Eastern Flagship is accelerating beyond its maximum safety limits. SWSA (SUPREME WESTERN SPACE ADMIRAL) That's interesting, why the hell are they doing that? OFFICER It has also shifted its direction to collide directly with us. SWSA YOU MEAN THEY ARE GOING TO COLLIDE WITH US. OFFICER Yes sir. (1 Big Video Game) SWSA Holy shit get me with the president. The oval office appears on the main screen. THE PRESIDENT Yes Admiral. SWSA Mr. President, the Eastern Flagship has just initiated a collision course, with us. THE PRESIDENT Maybe they are just bluffing, see when will they collide with you? SWSA minutes. THE PRESIDENT Can you evade them. SWSA Can we? OFFICER No, not unless we can disable their thrusters. CUT OUT TO OVAL OFFICE SCREEN: INT. OVAL OFFICE THE PRESIDENT General tell the land assault to hurry the hell up, tell them to take the silo as quickly as possible disregarding the lives of the men, tell them to leave the heavies behind. GENERAL Yes Mr. President. The general picks up a video phone. THE PRESIDENT As for you SWSA, your only priority is to be able to shoot down those nukes when they launch, and they will. Do anything necessary to maintain that objective. (1 Big Video Game) THE PRESIDENT (CONT'D) Destroying their fleet is secondary. Is that clear? SWC Yes Mr. President. THE PRESIDENT I won't bother you any further, end transmission. CUT OUT TO GENERAL'S VIDEO PHONE: EXT. WESTERN CONVOY A convoy of Tanks, Truck, humvees, and motor cycles. The colonel is sitting in a mobile command vehicle, talking to the general on the video phone- WESTERN COLONEL Yes general, I will send the light vehicles ahead. The general's face disappears. WESTERN COLONEL Universal signal, all vehicles progress towards the silo at their maximum speeds. All of the motor cycles and humvees zoom ahead of the other vehicles, the humvees and trucks also move a lot faster. 4 motor cycles move at about 200 KM/H ahead in a tight formation, they are not in front. One motor cycle loses control and falls into another. The other also falls and the one to the right of him drives off of the road and hits the barrier and goes flying. The person on the left avoids the mess. A humvee behind them going at about 120 KM/H. Coldly runs over the 2 on the road. INT. SILO CONTROL ROOM Back in the silo Zeus commands a couple guys outside to- ZEUS Lay grenades all over the tarmac, and detonate them when they arrive, when you are done return to the first defense. (1 Big Video Game) ZEUS Everyone else in the installation we are going to form 3 layers of defense first is going to be the entrance to this level. ZEUS The second will be where they bottlenecked us and the third is the command room. Everybody that is not in the this room will go to the defense. ZEUS When I give the signal you will fall back to the 2nd defense. Block them with anything you can find, kinda like what they did to us. We have 10 minutes to hold them off. INT. KRAKATAU BRIDGE Show explosion on the side of the Krakatau. EASTERN ENSIGN Sir the Liberty has destroyed our lateral thrusters. OFFICER Sir the Liberty has detonated their primary chemical fuel tank. SESA What the he.. are they going much faster. OFFICER Yes SESA Do the calculations! Will they evade us? EASTERN ENSIGN Sir we are about 2 degrees off. SESA God damn they're desperate. Does anybody have any way of changing our direction? Is there anything that we could blow up to change our direction? (1 Big Video Game) OFFICER Yes sir there are our primary fuel cells they are near the back. SESA Would that change our direction 2 degrees? OFFICER Yeah about. The admiral is looking at a holographic image of the whole battle and zooms in on the Eastern Flagship. SESA Fighter E12 and H07 fire upon these coordinates. The admiral as he points to the holographic image of the ship with a special pen. SESA I have jettisoned the hull plating. SPACE FIGHTER Sir am I getting those coordinates correct because that is your ship. SESA Yes those are the right coordinates fire on them immediately. The 2 fighters fire 4 torpedoes at the coordinates and their smart torpedoes avoid the plating and destroy their targets causing a huge explosion. SESA TO A DIFFERENT PERSON Did we do it? OFFICER No we are just a little shallow, the loss of 2 of the main engines has made us still too slow. SESA How much would we have to increase the thrust? OFFICER We would have to increase to 220%. THRUSTER MAN Admiral that is way too much. We are about to overheat as it is. (1 Big Video Game) SESA SHIT... Wait a second couldn't we do what they did except with our nuclear thrusters? THRUSTER MAN That is fucking crazy, but it might work. Wait a second while I do the calculations. The thruster man types a few variables into his computer. Thruster Man first gets the velocity of the flagship in a minute then he cuts off the engines. He modifies the force of detonation that would require the trajectories to collide. He does a few molar calculations to figure out the amount of deuterium needed. THRUSTER MAN grams of deuterium sir let me check that. Yeah that is about right. Actually 750g to make it safe. SESA When do we deploy it? THRUSTER MAN Now. SESA TO A DIFFERENT PERSON Computer detonate 700 grams, I mean grams of Deuterium in the rear nuclear thruster. BRACE FOR IMPACT. The engine of the flagship is destroyed. Everybody is rocked by the explosion. ZOOM TO EARTH: EXT. TARMAC OF WESTERN SILO COMPLEX The Western motor cycles start to arrive along with the lighter jeeps. Then all of a sudden explosions from everywhere kill 3/4 of the newly arrived soldiers. INT. INSIDE THE SILO Soldiers are waiting along the first defense when Westerners come pouring in through the doors. They are literally slaughtered but a few grenades get thrown into the well defended Easterners. Only one Easterner lives who is badly injured. He fires at them but is shot and killed. (1 Big Video Game) ZEUS (RADIO) Fall back to second defense. Repeat fall back to second defense. The first defense has been breached. Soldiers prepare to defend the last 3 corridors. The main corridor is the one that East had such a big problem trying to get by. The other is the door they blew up. The last is another small corridor. The Westerners charge the main hallway. The Easterners wait behind the rubble that they gathered there. When the Westerners are in the middle of the hallway they get up and gun the Westerners down. Only one Westerner makes it out. RANDOM EASTERN GRUNT 2 HEY they have got this hallway covered. He throws a grenade as he leaves. The grenade falls short and doesn't do anything. More Westerners gather up. They get people to peek around the corner to fire at the well defended East. After 2 Westerners die and 1 Easterners die. A western lieutenant arrives. WESTERN LIEUTENANT 2 We don't have enough time to fuck around you pansies. We need to rush. When I say everybody run in firing at them. People in the back throw grenades over us. 3..2..1..GO. They run in and get gunned down. But because of a few well placed grenades and a few lucky shots the only 2 Easterners remain. EASTERN SOLDIER We need more support. The other is firing at the injured Westerners. One of them throws a grenade before he is shot. EASTERN SOLDIER WHO IS SHOOTING Grenade! Eastern Soldier Who Is Shooting jumps over the barricade while the other soldier sees the grenade land right next to him and in slow motion, dives out of the way. Eastern Soldier Who Is Shooting is killed and the Eastern soldier on the other side of the barrier has been hurt from some of the previous shrapnel grenades and seems to have an injured leg. He tries to get up but can't because of his injured leg. He falls back down and he is shot by the next wave of Westerners. (1 Big Video Game) Easterners heard the call for support and begin firing at the Westerners. One is shot in the chest. The other looks down at him, pulls out a grenade and runs. EASTERN SOLDIER FALL BACK TO THE tertiary defense. My position has been breached. CUT TO: SPC. SPACE BATTLE A rail container is loaded onto the rail. It is fired and rams into the engines of a small vessel. Multiple fighters in a V formation fires torpedoes and explosive shells at the small space ship. It is destroyed. 2 more small Western ships remain. A few Western fighters engage the formation and the formation breaks up to engage in dog fighting. The Western Flagship meanwhile is firing many shells at the incoming East Flagship the fighters are flying towards the Eastern Flagship. The rail machine guns begin to shoot down the enemy fighters. INT. BRIDGE OF KRAKATAU SESA Order the evacuation, we have ?3? minutes till collision. People scramble to the nearest pod and get in the pods detach from the Flagship and fire away from it into low Earth orbit. The bridge shakes a little. EASTERN ENSIGN Sir they almost penetrated the bridge that last time. Show a rail cannon on the Western flagship it fires into the Eastern flagship and detonates right into the bridge in semi-super-slow-motion, then fast again. CUT TO: INT. BRIDGE OF LIBERTY WESTERN ENSIGN Sir we just took out their bridge. The Western admiral dazes out the screen that shows the Gigantic Eastern flagship continuing to come closer to them. (1 Big Video Game) The entire first half of the ship is completely torn up. Gas is venting from all over and basically only its sturdy superstructure remnants. Eastern fighters fly through the small gap between the flagships. Almost all of the pods have left the flagship. CUT TO: INT. SILO CONTROL ROOM AND INT. ROOM RIGHT NEXT TO SILO CONTROL ROOM The Eastern soldier just barley makes to the control room before the Westerners arrive. The Westerners are attempting to blow up the wall to the control room. 4 Easterners guarding the other hallways arrive and shoot at the Westerners. INJURED EASTERN SOLDIER They are trying to blow up the wall. When all of the Easterners are silent. ZEUS FIRE AT THAT Wall! Zeus picks up his assault riffle in his only hand and begins firing single bullets randomly into the wall. Others follow and those behind the wall are inevitably killed. One of the Westerners sets an explosive on the wall, before he dies. ZEUS SET Nukes to go launch automatically in 30 seconds. We are not going to live much longer. Another Westerner runs and sets the detonator. He blows him self up as soon as he placed the leads into the plastic. The Westerners exploit the hole in the wall and kill a couple of the last survivors. SPC. SPACE BATTLE The Western flagship buries a couple more shells inside the other flagship. The Eastern flagship going about a kilometer per second rams right into the Western flagship (where the camera is). Change perspectives to one facing in the opposite direction the Earth is in. The 2 collide in a huge nuclear explosion and the debris flies mostly in a diagonal direction. Zoom out from explosion to the person Zeus was talking to who is watching from a screen. He presses the big nuke button, with 13 seconds on the clock. Zeus is killed in the background. (1 Big Video Game) This guy pulls out his grenade and presses detonator while it in his hand. CUT TO: VR. GATES OF HEAVEN Zeus wakes up in a room labeled you have died, with all of his statistics, and heavens gate, with St. Peter. Zeus turns to St. Peter and says- ZEUS St. Peter put me in ghost mode. Go to the Nukes that were launched. Now Zeus disappears and viewer sees the nukes on their journey. CUT TO: AIR. ABOVE AMERICA Show about 20 nukes flying out of the silo to American targets. FADE INTO: INT. DIPLOMATIC MEETING EASTERN DIPLOMAT Look you are going to have to accept unconditional surrender, you just are simply unable to continue this war any longer. You have lost. FEMALE WESTERN DIPLOMAT But I still wish for semi-autonomy. EASTERN DIPLOMAT Look there are no compromises, unconditional surrender of all your VEMECS command codes or you and your people die very simple. You have 1 minute till the first nuke hits Washington. You have absolutely no choice. The Western diplomat breaks into tears and says- FEMALE WESTERN DIPLOMAT Fine unconditional surrender. She signs the treaty the Easterner gave her. (1 Big Video Game) DISPLAY Victory. CUT TO: TV station with no cameras just microbots. ANNOUNCER 1 Wow that was one of the most amazing games I've ever seen in my career. ANNOUNCER 2 It sure is Bill this was an amazingly clever victory, so quick so decisive, so beautiful, I have nothing to say negative about any aspect of the command team besides a few fudged tactical maneuvers. ANNOUNCER 1 It sure was truly shows that war is an art not a science. ANNOUNCER 2 It's both Bill. ANNOUNCER 2 But yes this battle was artfull, this out of the box thinking will make the critical members of the Easterner team as commanders in our sky command team. ANNOUNCER 1 Most certainly these supremely fighting men and women will make fine Western warriors. Show Zeus in virtual world press the little 'x' in the upper right hand corner with his right hand. Transition of Zeus letting his arm down in a black Virtual Reality suit. CREDITS/END OF SWITCH UP Credits opens up with a stalemated naval battle, we are listening on the radio as both sides attack each other. The switch up space battle, camera is at a far off neutral vantage point, in view of the entire battle, and a little more. West on the left, East on the right. The almost peaceful looking battle continues in silence with credits being displayed at the bottom of the screen. All at once overlay full interface over same field of vision. Camera zooms out from screen to behind western sky commander where camera stays until it dies. Hear the sounds of the Sky Command Center. COMPUTER The Supreme Sky Commander has left his command center, you are now Supreme Sky Commander. ARTEMIS God no they've taken over our command center- SPECILIST 1 Deuterium reactors on the Liberty are going critical!!! WESTERN SUBSTITUTE SKY COMMANDER How much will the liberty destroy. SPECILIST 7 It take out everything on this (points to main screen) screen sir, including us. RANDOM PERSON 1 Oh god!!!!! WESTERN SUBSTITUTE SKY COMMANDER COMPUTER EVAC ALL PERSONNEL TO EARTH ORBIT!!! (Credits/End of Switch Up) INT. SECONDARY WESTERN SPACE COMMAND CENTER Everybody in the room becomes enveloped in STEX and leaves through the ground they are standing on. Other voices are heard and partially audible. The green interface triangle above the liberty disappears as the ship becomes an ever expanding white sphere. The white sphere envelops everything, making both red and green triangles disappear. Eventually the shockwave envelops the sky command center as total whiteness envelops camera. Whiteness turns instantly to blue screen with test tone. Sweeping at a slow fixed velocity from left to right "Fallen" in white arrives near the center of the screen. Without pause "Nanotopia" appears in red. The time it takes to first show "Fallen" is the time "nanotopia" takes to sweep till that point. Nanotopia bleeds down the screen. Begin to fade out when blood from nanotopia reaches the bottom of the screen. FADE OUT. ASTEROID JOCKEY For entire act of Asteroid Jockey see and hear through the eyes and ears of Athena's STEX and BiMAV. Play only Battlefield music. Interface shows map in upper left and custom view in the upper right. Also shown is ammo levels, autorepair fluid levels, and damage. EXT. CENTER OF ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY The 4 dolphin class transports, with doors open enter the colony through the hole where the asteroid comes in. They maneuver around the asteroid refinement facilities, and a few people, including Athena jump to them, other people jump to the surface with bungi cords. The pilot jumps out just as the transport reaches the asteroid at the other side. The transport hovers in low gee holding cables that reach to the surface just as the camera cuts to Athena hitting the metal hull of the refinement center. EXT. LOW GRAVITY LEVELS IN ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY She lands into a roll, and sprawls out onto the surface. ATHENA (VO) Demagnetize suit. Athena gets up on her feet. Athena walks magnetically to the entrance, where the rest of her unit is jumping into the empty bay. INT. LOW GRAVITY COMPLEX IN ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY Athena walks into the facilities. The quad kills all of the Eastern STEX they see. CUT TO: Show commandos on the ground being shot at. GROUND COMMANDO (UPPER RIGHT CORNER) Sky turrets have gone active. SKY COMMANDER (UPPER RIGHT CORNER) Confirmed, I will get the 0 gee people on it right away. Central units here are the coordinates of medium sky turrets, take them out from the soft side with HE grenades, we are sweeping now for the command center. (Asteroid Jockey) Show Athena hearing this. Athena's quad goes to one of the turrets, and one of them throws a grenade in it. Militia open the door facing the guy who threw the grenade in. The guy who threw the grenade in gets shot down. The quad now of three sprays the enemy down and rush to their position. It appears to be an elevator? It's going up! ATHENA (VO) C-7 other guys hands Athena a 2kg package. ATHENA (VO) High Impact is said to change the nature of the triggering mechanism as he throws it down. They turn and leave the room towards the next turret. Show the side of the elevator as it explodes horizontally. SUBCOMMANDER 2 (VO) Control room has been found. (Below Not seen in movie.) Subcommander 2 looks at the to the sky commander, as a box appears in front of him, he takes it says SKY COMMANDER (VO) Quad 9. throws it away. Athena's Sky Assistant gets it. (Above Not seen in movie.) KELLY (VO) Redirect to these coordinates. They have found the control room. Go there quickly. The quad is directed to the room, where the Athena starts tapping into the controls while 3 and 2 guard the two doors. Athena defend the room for quite a while and more and more guys start attacking her fortified position. Luckily the militia have no grenades. Meanwhile on the inner surface a quad of three with the last member down are firing at the turrets. (Asteroid Jockey) GROUND COMMANDO (VO) Sky Commander these turrets are to hard to penetrate from the outside, I need to get to the cover of these houses immediately. SKY COMMANDER (VO) These turrets are a problem, get to cover immediately. Lance leader 4 status report on taking out those turrets, they can only be destroyed from the soft side. LANCE LEADER 4 (VO) Sir the militia are rushing to the center to protect them, if we don't take out those elevators we will be overwhelmed. SKY COMMANDER (VO) There are over 20 elevators, we can't break them all. TAKE OUT THOSE FUCKING TURRETS, the ground troops that are still alive, have to seek cover, while the mission has stopped, while asteroids still threaten to destroy the entire colony. The commander is very frustrated. SKY COMMANDER (VO) Wait a sec Sky Commander says as he brushes away all current tasks to the recesses of his task bar. SKY COMMANDER (VO) That's it, THAT'S FUCKING IT. He says, as he pulls all of the subcommanders in for a quick meeting, he is facing all of the men that normally face forward. SKY COMMANDER (VO) We can divert one of the asteroids to pass through the colony breaking all of the mess of the turrets and the centralized militia, if we can take colony's command center divert the asteroid that is blocking the way in the two minutes before the asteroid comes. CAN IT BE DONE!?" Pan/tilt to show the specialists nod in approval. (Asteroid Jockey) SPECILIST 1 (VO) Yes we can Zeus is on the verge of taking the security control room. SKY COMMANDER (VO) Cancel divert asteroid. Sky Commander says as he fingers one of the subcommanders out of his view SKY COMMANDER (VO) Inform everybody in the center. He says as he fingers the other two. SKY COMMANDER (VO) Deal with the consequences. He says to the 4th. And he brushes away the rest. Zoom in on the subcommander who is to inform central troops. SUBCOMMANDER 2 (VO) We are sending an ultra high velocity asteroid through the center of the colony, in two minutes, evacuate before 5:34 MT Mission time T+ 5 minutes 34 seconds. ATHENA (VO) Shit we got the get the fuck out of here, timer resync to deadline. How do we evac? QUAD COMMANDER (VO) It's like they surrounded you, you are going to have to blast your way through. Go through this door. Says the quad commander as he outlines the door green. QUAD COMMANDER (VO) Navigators lead the way. Assists I want you sweeping like you have never swept before. GO! Athena is running backwards, with the leader in front, there is lots of gunfire and chaos as Athena covers her exit. Athena kills lots of people right before Athena's Sky Assistant, screams- (Asteroid Jockey) KELLY (VO) TURN AROUND YOUR ALONE! Athena turns to kill a militia man and runs her fastest almost getting tripped up bouncing off walls and stuff. The navigator gets to the bay where she exits from. EXT. LOW GRAVITY LEVELS IN ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY KELLY (VO) RUN LIKE CRAZY! Which Athena does, with all the enemies still behind her. Athena runs downwards magnetically connecting with the elevator and is swinging her arms. The tension of battle still hasn't gone away in Athena's seemingly quiet free fall. The assistant turns Athena's direction, rockets in her suit makes his direction a reality KELLY (VO) FIRE! Athena does fire at them and they seem to lose interest and go back in the station. Athena looks to the left now falling back first. AIR. HIGH UP IN ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY The asteroid can be seen in the distance going very fast. It comes into the station at mind boggling speeds and burns right through the station about 10M in front of Athena, the elevators snap away from Athena and slam into the ground, and just as quickly the asteroid leaves the other side. One piece of station is still rotating in the center going slightly downward and towards the opposite exit. KELLY (VO) I am rocketing you into a pool it should be deep enough to catch you. ATHENA Thanks sugar. QUAD COMMANDER (VO) We are regrouping you into a new quad of four, we are taking you to your needed position. Says the Quad Commanders as he rockets them into a new trajectory and make Athena face the ground feet first. (Asteroid Jockey) EXT. SUBURBIA IN ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY Athena can see the combat continuing in small pockets. Athena sees the green triangles representing your unit, Zeus is running down the road along a straight orange line. Athena lands in the pool and runs to the street. Athena starts to run to Zeus the other STEX. ARTEMIS (VO) Quad 1 reconstitution with quad 9. ARTEMIS (VO) Zeus you are still unit leader, Ray you are 3, Athena you are 2, and F you are now 4. A new direction line indicates the new pathway as the newly formed quad goes to the storage facility. They have just reached the front of the storage facility and they sneak around and kill the guards in their fortified position as the Western quad approaches. They wait on either side of the intersection looking through the sniper scope for any bogies. They move into formation with Athena and Zeus as Zeus runs by. INT. STORAGE FACILITY IN ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY ARTEMIS (VO) Divide Ray and 4 break off to go to their corresponding tasks. Zeus and Athena remain together for a bit. Ray dies. ARTEMIS (VO) Fracture You hear after you notice different lines of path breaking off in the distance. Athena takes a sharp right. Athena is having trouble holding off a ton of enemies. ATHENA (VO) Help! There's [gunshots] tons of them! ZEUS Coming. Zeus stops. ZEUS REDIRECT TO Athena's position. (Asteroid Jockey) Athena is pinned down behind some boxes. Zeus helps him kill a lot of the men and as Zeus get a grenade out to throw in the database control room where there are 2 Eastern STEX. SPECILIST 1 (VO) NOOOOOOO! Specialist 1 screams so loud it hurts Zeus and Athena's ears, they cringe at the annoyance. SPECILIST 1 (VO) That is the database, go in there now before they are able to destroy it. Zeus presses the button to open the door, but it is locked as part of standard security protocol. ZEUS Well smarty pants how THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO OPEN THE DOOR!? SPECILIST 1 (VO) Hang on a sec let me talk to our hacked security computer. [about 23 seconds of typing] As militia throw a grenade into the quad's position Athena knocks it back with the butt of her gun. Zeus signals Athena to go take care of it. Zeus signals Athena to go take care of it. Athena chases the militia guy who whimpers and dies. ZEUS Great job you're definitely commando material fellow greek god. ATHENA (VO) Thanks, but I don't even compare to somebody like you. ZEUS One day you might, you just might. SPECILIST 1 (VO) Fuck I am not used to the interface, just blast it. The door opens. ZEUS No, actually good job it's open. (Asteroid Jockey) Zeus takes his riffle in his left hand and puts only his gun in the door and uses the video stream from the scope of the gun to sprays the 2 STEX who are inside. SPECILIST 1(VO) Ohh, Alright set up data ports on the biggest thing that connects. ZEUS Done, you getting anything? SPECILIST 1 (VO) Data stream viable, I will worry about maintaining radio transmission of the stream, and hacking the primary database. Over and out. ATHENA (VO) Hold position. Reconstituting units, run to the hall, left, down. Zeus and Athena run down the hall and recombine with certain STEX. Western STEX run down the hall together. They split up just before Zeus's quad exits the Storage Facility. Zeus is in a quad of 4 running in suburbia. Athena is in a quad of 4 still moving around inside the storage facility. SKY COMMANDER (VO) This is the sky commander speaking, the East has launched multiple troop transports at your position, it was believed that we could shoot them all down, however significant naval buildup in the area prevents total blockage. SKY COMMANDER (VO) They are due to penetrate the hull in about 2 minutes, about 40-60 STEX will get through. We'll keep you informed. Double time on those launchers. ARTEMIS (VO) Anticipate the oncoming invasion. Athena's quad you stay behind to manage the logistics. ATHENA (VO) Affirm. (Asteroid Jockey) About 30 seconds from breakthrough time: RANDOM STEX (VO) ALL UNIT, ALL UNITS, BiMAVs ARE GOING ACTIVE, TWO FULL QUADs! As Random STEX fires at the heavy BiMAVs. SKY COMMANDER (VO) ALL UNITS PREPARE FOR encounter with heavy BiMAVs, find as many heavy weapons as possible and mount them in prescribed positions. Don't fire unless you have got enough power to pierce the armor. Navigators navigate our commandos too heavy weapons. Remember break through is in 15 seconds. We need to take care of both. seconds prior to break through, Athena looks at 4 BiMAVs being moved on conveyor belt to a versatile container. ATHENA (VO) Stop the conveyor belt NOW! as Athena points to the guy at the controls. Athena jumps on the conveyor belt and then on top of the legs of the crouched monstrosity. She climbs to the closed cockpit where she pulls up the hatch. ATHENA (VO) Suit O2 mouthpiece, and seal nose. Athena closes her eyes. ATHENA (VO) Blow suit. SUIT (VO) Are you sure you want to expose yourself to 0 pressure. ATHENA (VO) YS BLOO SOUP! slurs Athena. The wristbands rotate and the gloves fall of, along with the boots. She kicks off the boots as her legs split at the side and her breastplate, and back plate separate and correspondingly on her arms. Everything falls off. Athena is in her shroud, with her helmet still on. ATHENA (VO) rmmove mothpice (Asteroid Jockey) The mouth peace is removed, as Athena seals her lips. Most of her moist air flows out, she throws the helmet off causing the camera to swing around in the air. She jumps into the sophisticated gel of this new BiMAV interface. The hatch automatically closes. The instant it closes. CUT TO: ATHENA'S VISION Cockpit lights up. BIMAV (VO) Enter BiMAV activation code: also comes up visually. Athena types in 8 eights, enter. "BiMAV active" is displayed. ATHENA (VO) The interface, the interface its like I am the BiMAV. I can't even see my body just the BiMAV 99.9 megahertz frequency audio only "Specialists can you here me?" SPECILIST 6 (VO) Yes we can who are you. ATHENA (VO) I am Athena in a BiMAV, I need the radio encoding via infrared so I can talk on encoded frequencies. SPECILIST 6 (VO) Working on it. Athena gets up and walks foreword, off of the belt. SPECILIST 6 (VO) I got it. Say with me 'allow infrared interface full encoding system overhaul.' ATHENA (VO) allow infrared interface full encoding system overhaul. BIMAV (VO) Confirmed ready for infrared link. ATHENA (VO) It worked. (Asteroid Jockey) SPECILIST 6 (VO) Good proceed. BIMAV (VO) Encoding system overhaul complete. ATHENA (VO) REVERT TO ENCODING SYSTEM 734. SKY COMMANDER (VO) REPEAT RAIL LAUNCHER 2 has been destroyed. ATHENA (VO) THIS IS BiMAV quad 1, unit 1 reporting for duty commander SKY COMMANDER (VO) You took over a BiMAV Athena? ATHENA (VO) Yes sir, it's a new interface, it feels like I am the BiMAV. SKY COMMANDER (VO) Huh? ATHENA (VO) I see what it sees and feels what it feels. It would be a good idea to take over a few more BiMAVs. SKY COMMANDER (VO) Yes a good idea, thanks for pioneering the method. Athena begins experimenting getting used to the interface. ATHENA (VO) Arm all weapons. BIMAV (VO) Armed. Athena gets ordered to a certain coordinate. EXT. SUBURBIA IN ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY BIMAV (VO) Receiving coordinates. Athena pulls each of her fingers, some of which fire weapons. (Asteroid Jockey) ATHENA (VO) How do I fire missiles? BIMAV (VO) Pull your pinkie to paint targets, press you thumb to paint and fire. 'fire all paints' will fire missiles will fire at all painted targets not already fired at. Your index finger just fires where the crosshairs are. ATHENA (VO) How do I fire machine gun. BIMAV (VO) We'll manage that. ZEUS (VO) Fucking BiMAV approaching, need support. ATHENA (VO) Coming, will arrive soon. When Athena gets to the battle Zeus and his forces are running up the road until the BiMAV walks around the corner. Zeus thinks it is bad at first and the others slow down in panic, Zeus slip/slides to the ground in fear. ATHENA (VO) FRIENDLY BiMAV, FRIENDLY BiMAV, do not engage. Zeus and the others scatter into suburbia, waiting for resolution of this battle of giants. Athena runs head on about 25M from the enemy BiMAV, she hesitates for an instant then blasts the fuck out of the enemy 2 shots from each arm every second for about 8 seconds, with the machine gun also firing. A full volley of missiles seem like complete over kill as the smoldering wreak falls to the ground. The other BiMAV unaware that the friendly BiMAV was the enemy, waited for conformation. The BiMAV was hit so hard with so much veracity, that it could not reorient itself to fire back. The troops come out of nearby houses as the Eastern BiMAV lay in ruins. ZEUS (VO) I told you would be great. (Asteroid Jockey) ATHENA (VO) You said maybe if I recall, and if I don't manage to get this BiMAV out of here I won't be anything. ZEUS(VO) You'll live, trust me. ZETA COMMANDER (THE SELF APPOINTED SKY COMMANDER OF SQUADRON ZETA) (VO) Move out people. We've a colony to protect. Specialist 4 turns to the mission commander and informs him. SPECILIST 4 (VO) Commander, I've accessed Athena's missiles, so tell the men that they have 36, 4MRD meter radius of death missiles at their disposal. SKY COMMANDER (VO) Great. The sky commander switches his com to universal. SKY COMMANDER (VO) We have 36 4MRD missiles launchable form any of our 4 BiMAVs, to be painted at your whim. SPECILIST 4 (VO) SIR, I think I can use Athena's long range ballistic cannon to hit far up. SKY COMMANDER (VO) So? SPECILIST 4 (VO) One of their BiMAVs is almost exactly opposite Athena on a straight road- SKY COMMANDER (VO) DO IT! Show Athena spearheading the push towards rail launcher 3. Zeus and his men follow, running their hardest to keep up with their strolling BiMAV. The machine gun moves to any sort of movement and sometimes fires. A few missiles fly out to painted targets. (Asteroid Jockey) SPECILIST 4 This is the specialist, the artillery cannon on your back seems to be very powerful, we can use it to destroy 1 of their BiMAVs walking far up in the colony across from you. Say with me 'Transfer full control to code 734.' ATHENA 'Transfer full control to code 734.' Hear this from the Sky Command Center as the specialist stops the BiMAV and activates the cannon. Show it protruding out of the diagram in reality, then fade back to diagram as the dotted line goes in a hyperbolic arc to the ground in front of the enemy BiMAV. Specialist 4 types a few buttons then checks his work. Then Specialist presses the button. Athena's interface has a box in the upper right which shows 3 perfectly concentric heavy artillery launches and subsequent arrival destroying the enemy BiMAV. SPECILIST 4 (VO) Revert full control to operator. ATHENA (VO) Thanks, move out men we've got 5 more to take out. RANDOM STEX (VO) What happened to the 6th one? ATHENA It's been taken car of. After a bit more running. SKY COMMANDER (VO) Everybody there are 5 enemy BiMAVs and 4 friendly, we seem to be getting on top of things. Rail defense 3, Athena and her posse are quickly closing in on your position, how are things holding up. SQUADRON FIELD LEADER (VO) NOT WELL SIR WE got to fall back to suburbia, we can't take it any more. SKY COMMANDER (VO) Hold your position men, you'll be backed up in less that two minutes. (Asteroid Jockey) SQUADRON FIELD LEADER (VO) Alright sir. You see him take losses defending his last foothold, then 4 BiMAVs appear on the sky line. SQUADRON FIELD LEADER (VO) FULL LANCE OF ENEMY BiMAVs coming up over the horizon, closing in fast. SKY COMMANDER (VO) WHAT!!!!!? Yaps the Commander completely undignified. SUBCOMMANDER 1 (VO) Sir he is right. SKY COMMANDER (VO) STEX abandon position immediately meet up with Athena's squadron, and back off from rail launcher 1. What about launcher 4 are they being rushed? SUBCOMMANDER 2 (VO) Yes sir, I will inform them immediately. SKY COMMANDER (VO) Send the rest of lance 1 to defend that position. Leave the rest to defend launcher 1. Western BiMAVs turn towards launcher 3. The few survivors are scattered and running towards Athena as she leads zeta to protect the survivors. Athena slows down to a stop and crouches behind a small house, in view of a road. The ant like men (Zeus included) scatter into yards, and jump small fences, a few people are actually still inhabiting these houses. An enemy BiMAV runs by Athena. Athena patently targets the leg and fires 2 simultaneous shells at its right leg, blowing it off completely. As the manned BiMAV squirms to get up Athena pounds it for a few seconds until it stops moving. Athena turns around, throws her arms back to switch to looking back- ATHENA (VO) Specialist won't you pilot the BiMAV as I fall back to rail launcher 1. (Asteroid Jockey) SPECILIST 6 (VO) With pleasure. 'transfer logistics to code 734.' ATHENA (VO) 'transfer logistics to code 734.' Athena backs off with the support of his platoon of ants. Continue this. Athena is looking at minimap of other BiMAVs. ATHENA (VO) Running out of ammo need to reload, BiMAVs 2 and 3 cover the evacuation. SPECILIST 6 (VO) They are about to arrive I am taking you to our support BiMAV. Athena runs down the road for a little while, until she is taken off the road, to somebody's backyard where a support BiMAV is waiting. It loads more shells into her back and more auto-repair fluid. Athena is taken through to another road, sees an enemy BiMAV up the road and immediately begins to engage it. Athena destroys it. Athena goes to where the troops are. Athena continues to back off with 2 and 3. Zeus and the commandos begin to engage other foot soldiers. ZEUS (VO) Commander request BiMAV, machine gun support. The commander throws up the tasks giving it to three different assistants. The assistants instantly rotate the guns and begin to obliterate the enemies, which the commandos are about to run into. After that obstacle is conquered, LIMPING STEX (VO) Can we slow down my suit can't take this kind of running. ZETA COMMANDER (VO) DO NOT SLOW DOWN, you need to keep this pace, do you understand how hard it is for BiMAVs to run that slowly? BiMAV unit one do not slow down if one of the commandos start to slow down, leave them behind. Show Rail launcher 2 and 1 in upper right hand corner. (Asteroid Jockey) SKY COMMANDER (VO) Rail launcher 2 has been evacuated, and captured, all surviving troops converge on our only launcher 1. ZETA COMMANDER (VO) We are approaching the rail launcher, final infantry transport, all troops cover the arrival of our squadron beta. Then jump in the container for immediate departure. SKY COMMANDER (VO) We are approaching the launcher, it will take a minute to load the infantry and load the first BiMAV container, only two BiMAVs per container. Fan out and stay moving to avoid enemy fire. ATHENA (VO) Regain full control BIMAV (VO) [Beep of approval] Athena flips her arms to look forward. Athena runs into a backyard and across to the road, looking up the road. 3 and 2 fan out also. The troops find protection around Athena from surrounding enemy infantry. Squadron beta gets chopped up but a few survive. 2 and 3 converge from different ends of the street where Athena is waiting. ATHENA Come with me if you want to live. Athena walks into- INT. 1 GEE SPACE PORT The STEX back towards the entrance, BiMAV 2 and 3 follow. The STEX get in the container. The hatch seals and off the container goes. A new container is loaded and both 2 and 3 jump to a lying down position in the new container. The hatch seals and they are evacuated. ATHENA Now its my turn to leave. SKY COMMANDER (VO) Not yet there are a few survivors, that have taken over civilian cars, please cover them as they get into Rail Launcher 4 with you. (Asteroid Jockey) ATHENA (VO) Now I am not going to make it back, direct me. EXT. SUBURBIA IN ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY Athena the only BiMAV is directed to kill the troops so the car can get through. ATHENA (VO) Auto-machine gun fire. BIMAV (VO) [Beep of approval] ZETA COMMANDER (VO) A BiMAV is coming on your road. ATHENA (VO) I see it, I see it car drive into this backyard. DRIVER Why? As he slows down to turn. ATHENA (VO) JUST DO IT! DRIVER Alright, alright. ATHENA (VO) Get out of the car now. No questions. ZETA COMMANDER (VO) What the hell are you doing? ATHENA (VO) Shut the fuck up. BiMAV open main storage bin. BIMAV (VO) [Beep of approval] As Athena knells down. ATHENA (VO) Hop in. The little men jump onto the BiMAV and get into the metal box. (Asteroid Jockey) DRIVER (VO) We're in. ATHENA (VO) Seal hatch. BIMAV (VO) [Beep of approval] SKY COMMANDER (VO) Four BiMAVs, two closing in on your position, the other two guarding the rail launcher. ATHENA (VO) I know, I know. Close all audio input. INT. RAIL LAUNCHER 4 IN ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY Athena runs around and out near the launcher. One BiMAV is standing right next to the middle of the receded container. The other is to the left and is walking around to the other side, both turn to confront Athena. Athena runs even faster firing at the BiMAV that was walking. Athena gets fucked up but still runs. Athena jumps and dropkicks the BiMAV standing at the middle of the container. Unable to take the hit it falls over, Athena is partially stopped and falls into the transport back first. Athena reorients her BiMAV to fit it lengthwise. The last standing BiMAV begins firing into Athena's torso. ATHENA (VO) SEAL!LAUNCH! The standing BiMAV hopelessly fires at the rapidly moving transport. The other BiMAV is in the process of getting up. ZOOM OUT OF WALL MONITOR: CONSPIRACY THEORY 1 INT. ATHENA'S LIVING ROOM ATHENA Don't you think that was an awesome battle. ZEUS Yeah I loved the drop kick at the end. That was glorious. ATHENA Really put the icing on the cake didn't it. ZEUS You can't put it any better. ATHENA Did you know that the West attacked their own space elevator to start this war. ZEUS No they didn't its not like I actually hijacked the Fed Ex ship to fly it into the ladder. ATHENA Right and I am Osama Bin Laden. Speaking of Bin Laden did you know that the US also caused 9/11 so that they could invade countries and pass liberty oppressing laws. ZEUS That's bullshit, I know the US caused the Western space elevator to blow up but that's it aside from the false flag operation that was used to spark Vietnam and probably the Spanish American War. ATHENA Well at least you know about that. But really there is so much evidence that the US did cause 9/11. (Conspiracy Theory 1) ZEUS Show me. ATHENA We'll first off we need to consider that the buildings were reinforced by a welded steel super structure. Fires just aren't able to bring sky scrapers down even if they burn for a long time because it takes a lot of heat to soften the steel enough. ZEUS Hasn't there been other buildings that have fallen down due to fires. ATHENA Nope it takes to much fire to soften the steel enough. ZEUS Hmmm. ATHENA Most of the heat from the fires on the twin towers would have dissipated during the duration of the burn. ZEUS What's that supposed to mean. ATHENA The beams have a large cross- sectional area for the heat to travel through, steel has a high thermal conduction rate, and if the steel got near the softening point required for the building to fall down the heat would dissipate more according the the laws of thermal conduction. ZEUS But the jet fuel fires would still be pouring heat onto the beams. ATHENA But it was over 30 minutes. ZEUS I don't buy that. (Conspiracy Theory 1) ATHENA Well consider this: Back then before top down nanite deconstruction those type of buildings were only brought down by controlled explosive and thermate demotions. ZEUS So. ATHENA Just let me continue. It takes months of preparations by highly qualified trained specialists to plant the demotions to cause the building fall down onto its own footprint. Another words so they don't destabilize slightly which would cause them to topple horizontally into nearby buildings. ZEUS But the floors pancaked. ATHENA If the standard steel highrise structure pancaked there would be no need for demolitions specialists. The people back then would just pump gasoline into high up floors and then light a match and the building would come crumbling down without hurting anything else. ZEUS But the gasoline might ignite too early. Athena is scrolling around on the computer in the below dialogue. ATHENA Shut up Zeus you are just being an ass. If the pancaking theory were true they would just put explosives to blow out 1 floor instead of throughout the building like this video. Athena goes to a video that shows the demolition of a standard steel highrise building. (Conspiracy Theory 1) ZEUS hmm.. ATHENA Also when the demotions crew probably the same company that planted the explosives cleaned up the evidence virtually all of the rubble was reduced to the length of a truck trailer for easier cleanup. ATHENA Multiple samples of the evidence of the rubble that wasn't immediately sent to China to be melted down showed characteristic properties of thermate a highly exothermic of hot chemical agent that eats right thorough steel crossbeams. That is why there was smoldering molten metal in the ruins long after 9-11. ZEUS That doesn't prove anything. ATHENA No any one of these facts wouldn't prove anything only the culmination of the evidence is sufficient to prove that the government orchestrated the whole thing. ZEUS So I guess you are going to go on with this "evidence". ATHENA Yes, the US had a complete saturation of radar coverage which would track the flights without the transponder being off. There is no reason why fighter jets weren't escorting the planes to a designated location. ZEUS There has to be a reason. ATHENA Yes a stand down at NORAD. they happened to be playing a war game that day with the FAA which was almost exactly like the real occurrence. Quite a coincidence really. (Conspiracy Theory 1) ZEUS That's bullshit. ATHENA No even the government admits that they would still show up on radar in the 9/11 commission. Why the hell would NORAD deinstall all their RADAR stations when planes communicate via radar. They would need them for tracking anything from hijackings to drug smugglers with private jets not to mention an all out war. ZEUS But nobody could have fucked with us in the air like that. ATHENA Well the planes were all still tracked by radar which means they use the exact same hardware. The government just explains it away like NORAD and the FAA aren't connected at the hip and a series of blatant failures in the system occurred. ZEUS I'll have to look that up later, do you have a smoking gun. ATHENA The closest thing to a smoking gun we have is the fact that if Osama Bin Laden was planning this shit for like 3 years why did he choose the 1 date which would arm everybody with the 1 tool the government wants us to use whenever we see anything suspicious and need to contact anything from Homeland Security to the FBI to the CIA to the White House Everything. ZEUS Tool what tool (Athena pulls out her Cell and points to it.) . 1 . 1 Holy shit this could be real it's just like the start of vietnam. (Conspiracy Theory 1) ATHENA Or the Reichstag fires, or the take down of the Western Elevator. ZEUS But I'm still skeptical. ATHENA We haven't even gone into the Pentagon. But I've got to go cheat death now. ZEUS Oh no your going to an all out battle. ATHENA No me and my boyfriend Kelly are just in a POW lassoing crew I'll probably be fine, the incursion team probably took care of most of the bogies. CUT TO: POW LASSOING GONE BAD EXT. FOREST IN TYPE 1 COLONY Rebels are gathering in the same forest in the park, they are opening up a sealed box in the ground and handing out guns, helmets, etc. Camera move a few feet away into a bush, can't see anything special. Chameleon STEX begins to slowly rise in back of a bush. Throws a large spiky shrapnel grenade. It detonates on impact. Spikes kill most of the people. Athena begins firing at the remaining rebels. A few of rebels see Athena and begin to fire at her. Athena dives over the bush directly into shoulder roll. Athena begins firing again. Rebels don't even know what hit them. All gathered militia are lifeless. Ping, ping, Athena is pushed forward by the bullets of a pistol hitting her suit. Holding the front of the riffle in her left hand, Athena quickly turns and kills the last resistance. ATHENA Park gathering has been cleared, destroying munitions as we speak. Athena begins picking up guns and throwing them in the box. QUAD COMMANDER Good job Athena, when your done, go the check point, and remember to deploy a probe first. ATHENA Don't worry, I won't make the same mistake. Athena programs the console on the box to turn the contents into a random composite alloy block. Athena seals the box and begins to jog to the check point. ATHENA Suit deploy Scout probes. The STEX shows all the probe that Athena has, she chooses the top and biggest one. It deploys almost immediately. Athena walks off trail and kneels. (POW Lassoing Gone Bad) ATHENA Lock suit. Activate scout piloting interface. EXT. SUBURBIA IN TYPE 1 COLONY Athena guides the small jet propelled scout through the city, looking at everything. Athena observes a sniper nests. ATHENA Autopilot, release suit. Athena gets near the check point, but doesn't want to expose herself to the sniper nest. Show the barrel of the sniper slowly move upwards out of the foliage. Bang, the enemy sniper in the nest is dead. ATHENA Sniper eliminated, awaiting orders. QUAD COMMANDER Proceed into suburbia, reconstitute with unit 11, rendezvous with Kelly, to form a sub-unit, then begin sweeping through houses, beginning with 2958. ATHENA Already on my way, Kelly how are things. KELLY Everything is going smoothly Athena. Athena waits in the cul-de-sac as he watches Kelly run up. The other half of the quad are already beginning to sweep from the end of the street, to the cul-de-sac, on the other side of the street. ATHENA Let's get this first one. Athena and Kelly run up to the door, she opens it from the left side keeping her profile away from the frame. INT. HOUSE 1 IN TYPE 1 COLONY A small propeller, propelled short range recon probe is launched by the quad commander, from the top of Athena's backpack. Athena aims her assault riffle in and closes her left eye to look through the scope. Just a hallway. Athena runs in and does the same around all of the corners, not shown to be secure by the colors. (POW Lassoing Gone Bad) QUAD COMMANDER I found the residents, designated non-belligerent, 3rd floor. Athena begins to run up the stairs, Kelly follows. QUAD COMMANDER door on the right. But he did not have to tell him, the frame was flashing yellow (not risky deal with it.) Athena walks into the room. ATHENA Don't panic, I am not going to hurt you. I just need to attach monitors, for your own safety. A family of 5 is scarred as hell huddled in a room with a furry carpet. Bright cheery colors, the left wall is a TV, they are watching the news talking about this colony. ATHENA Hey Kelly there is a replicator in this room. KELLY Oh wasn't quite sure about that. Kelly walks in and kneels on the ground, and his chameleon suit blends in with the light blue carpet. KELLY hey little guy, how old are you. MOTHER He's four. KELLY Athena are you getting those monitors ready. ATHENA Yeah I am making extra, so we don't have to make more in every house. KELLY Good idea. FATHER What are these monitors? (POW Lassoing Gone Bad) KELLY They are neck bands, that monitor your heath and watch what is happening all around you. It also taps into our colony wide positioning system. It makes sure you aren't doing anything naughty. FATHER And if we do, do anything bad it blows our head off right? He is getting very pissed of and defensive. KELLY No silly, when you first put it on it inserts a very small casual in your neck, If you try to take the band off, the capsule will tap into your spine and block skeletal muscle neurons. MOTHER In english please? KELLY You will be able to breath, and your heart will still beat, but that's all you will be able to move. KID 1 Does it hurt when it injects the capsule. ATHENA No, it pre-novicates the region, it feels pretty weird though. ATHENA Ok 40 collars ready for use. If you don't put them on, we will for you. FATHER Even the kids? ATHENA Its for your own safety, if we see somebody that is not on our system, we assume they are hostile and will take appropriate measures. So now it would be theoretically safe for you to walk outside, but I wouldn't advise it. (POW Lassoing Gone Bad) The family is putting on their collars, and are scarred and startled with what it is doing to their neck. FATHER When do we get these off? ATHENA When the tertiary crew comes in a few hours. KELLY We'd better get going. ATHENA Don't do anything I wouldn't do. KELLY Bye. They walk out of this house EXT. SUBURBIA IN TYPE 1 COLONY and to the next house. INT. HOUSE 2 IN TYPE 1 COLONY Athena has all of the collars attached to her suit by a thin wire coming out of her lower back. Kelly has none attached. Kelly opens the door and his short range probe flies in. The quad commander guides it in. QUAD COMMANDER Millita, there is a millitia man in the hallway. Stand by with flashbang, I am going to disable your grid sector. Specilist Electronics disable electricity in And sync with this flashbang. Quad commander throws the flash bang icon over. SPECILIST Got it, ready when you are. QUAD COMMANDER Remember, he was straight down the hall before he destroyed the probe. KELLY Alright, waiting for the flash. (POW Lassoing Gone Bad) The specilist presses two buttons on his interface at the exact same time. Flashbang detonates, all lights on the block go out. Kelly runs in. A guy wearing Night-vision goggles, is holding a riffle. Immediately starts shooting as soon as Kelly moves in. Kelly is shot multiple times in the chest, and falls back out hitting the door into the house and falling on the deck, half dead. Finally he is shot in the head. QUAD COMMANDER OH SHIT!! He is fast. Athena move in immediately, secure the house, he is probably alone, but we can't be sure. Music starts to become intense, reacting on intensity of voice and the injury. Athena's face shows intensity. ATHENA TensileCableRelease. The monitors fall off. As she runs in, firing down the hallway. Athena succeeds in putting about 11 out of 14 shells into him. Athena runs through the door, looking down sympathetically at Kelly, for an instant. A red cross outlined in white displayed above his body. Athena secures the rest of the house, no one else is there. Athena runs back down to Kelly. Before she reaches him, Athena sees in her heads up display Kelly's ekg is sporadic "cardiac arrest." Ekg flat-lines. Heath monitor becomes black "Kelly confirmed dead" SUIT Kelly confirmed dead. Athena seems emotionally on edge. (POW Lassoing Gone Bad) QUAD COMMANDER Ok Athena, standard salvage procedures, I've sent a crew to get the body, so you don't have to destroy it. Your ammo is running a little low, and he has a few grenades, and C-7 packages, that could come in handy. .. Athena I'm sorry, but the mission must go on. Musical counterpoint. ATHENA Alright I will get that now but DJ could you play for my STEX something else, something more depressing, this music is really pissing me off. MISSION DJ Sure, the MissionMan always takes requests. The DJ sounds like Duffman. Appropriate music is played. CUT TO: INT. MILITARY FUNERAL PLACE Same music. Athena is standing over Kelly still in her STEX suit, without the helmet. Athena gently grabs Zeus's hand. At the end of the service, Kelly is shot into space. CUT TO: CONSPIRACY THEORY 2 INT. ZEUS'S LIVING ROOM ATHENA I thought the mission was just a standard POW containment mission, I didn't know there would be so many millitia left. ZEUS The primary incursion team should have stayed longer to secure the area but sometimes they are so battle fatigued they just need to be pulled out. ATHENA I know I've been that way before, I am not blaming it on the commanders, it just one of those things that,, just happens. ZEUS I know how you feel, Artemis was taken away from me too. Athena cuddles with Zeus. ATHENA I'm glad you understand. Zeus starts caressing her. ATHENA No not yet, it causes me too much pain now. ZEUS I'm over my pain but your wound is too fresh. ATHENA Why don't we continue our discussion of 9/11. ZEUS So what happened to the people on the planes. (Conspiracy Theory 2) ATHENA According to some people the planes were directed to special military facilities where the planes and people in them were destroyed. ZEUS Ok but how would that not get on the internet. ATHENA It did, that's how I knew that. But it only comes from confidential sources other wise the source would be executed. ZEUS Oh. ATHENA You need to see 2 pictures that clearly demonstrate the conspiracy. ZEUS Are you talking about the 4 frames where some squiggly thing flew into the Pentagon. ATHENA No I am talking about the picture before and after the pentagon exterior fell. This is before. Athena show Zeus the picture of the Pentagon before. ATHENA And after. ZEUS Hold on a second there is no rubble in the first but the second has rubble that was sprinkled on the ground. ATHENA Exactly. ZEUS Now I am starting to get paranoid you are right. (Conspiracy Theory 2) ATHENA Watch the video you talked about earlier. There is no plane just a strange looking missile. ZEUS Wow. I trust you now. On my next mission will you be my sky assistant. ATHENA Of course. CUT TO: A PRECARIOUS FOOTHOLD INT. ZEUS'S HOUSE Next morning, a call on Zeus's watch, beside the bed. Zeus reaches over to pick it up, and stares at it for a second. ZEUS Oh shit! Zeus grabs his watch, and runs out of the room, down the hall, down the stairs. Zeus puts his watch in front of the replicator data port. REPLICATOR Hello Colonel Zeus. ZEUS Hi. Zeus puts on his shroud and backs into the ready made STEX. The STEX shows Zeus the way to the exterior rail transport. Zeus slides down vertically into the special launcher. It seals around him. INT. RAIL LAUNCHER Zeus is accelerated into his face, then instantly accelerated gees in the other direction. Top of launcher, opens up. Zeus is flung out into space, along with new gear that is now magnetically attached to Zeus's suit. TITAN Hello this is Titan, giving you your hastily prepared auto-briefing. This night ___________ colony was taken over by an Eastern assault team. TITAN Luckily they only partially succeeded, they have taken over the security center, and have begun to move the colony deep into Eastern territory. (A Precarious Foothold) TITAN Luckily of our division's dolphins was doing a patrol in the region. The millita have done very well to resist take over and to hold a foothold, that our dolphin class transport is to enter into. TITAN End briefing for those on the transport. You newly launched STEX soldiers are to land at the dolphin transport, which will be secured by those that land before you. TITAN Please make sure your guidance and stopping thrusters are working and fuel lines are good. Say "Hello" when you are ready to enter our battle control system. ZEUS Hello, I'm all good. ATHENA Ok Zeus, I am going to rotate you into position and test your primary thruster. ZEUS Alright. INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER ATHENA Ok seems to be working, everything is set and will be automated. I will get back to you when you are nearing the dolphin. View Athena's view. Zoom into it. EXT. FIELD IN TYPE 2 COLONY Zeus's millita are running out of the woods, and into a field, they see about 5 other millita forces guarding the window. One of the millita is shot dead. MILLITA 2 Sniper. (A Precarious Foothold) The two millitia turn around and begin firing into the woods, at anything that looks abnormal. other millita converge into them, also shooting into the woods. 2 of those 4 are helping an injured one back. The fourth is shot dead. More and more millita are coming through the field from all directions and converging on the window. The Eastern STEX commandos have surrounded them and are slowly closing in on them. All of the surviving millita, around 11, are forming a tight circle around the window. 7 are dead in the field. MILLITA LEADER HIT THE DECK!! They do. The window explodes, sending diamond shards everywhere. As the explosion subsides, the negative pressure of space begins to pull the air in for a second, along with a few diamond shards. Just as the last of the diamond shards return to the hole, the modified for rapidly deploying STEX dolphin class transport rams through, diamond shards pound against the armored hull, as 2 triquater lances fly through (24 men), flying diagonally, yet with bodies pointing straight up. The transport locks onto the hull, by releasing of the hatches to slam into the grassy field, impressing into the grass a few centimeters. A large machine gun pod comes up out of each of the 4 hatches, about a meter high. The enemy STEX just got out of the woods and begin walking up the field. Swing camera around to back of gun pod. FADE TO: INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER Athena has a full, 360°x360° 3-D view of the gun pod. She is firing at many of the enemy STEX in the woods. Sometimes the computer outlines movement to help firing. The millitia are on the ground firing sporadic shots into the woods. ATHENA Zeus I've got you on an almost radial vector into the colony. We do not have enough time to slow you down completely. (A Precarious Foothold) ATHENA Break your fall by doing a non magnetic roll. I will rocket you into position for the portal at the bottom of the Dolphin to pass over you. ATHENA The computer will guide you in, giving you some tangential velocity, so as to land softer. SPC. SPACE AROUND TYPE 2 COLONY ZEUS Got it, I see the transport. Just roll and straighten. ATHENA Yes then lock into position, the rest we take care of. Exactly what is explained happens. Zeus hits the inside wall of the dolphin where the seats are located and falls down to the "floor" (really the door to the cockpit). ZEUS Detach thruster system. It falls to the floor. Zeus gets up. Zeus picks up a couple of boxes of ammo, and helmets and straps them to his back. Zeus begins to jump/climb out of the pod. Zeus jumps the last stretch. The millitia are still on the ground looking into the forest. EXT. FIELD IN TYPE 2 COLONY Zeus puts down the boxes, and helmets. ZEUS Get up, reload. Ladies and gentlemen, I will be your field commander for today. As soon as possible, we are going to mobilize against the forces against us. They begin to take pieces of clip from the box and attach it around their chest and supplement the clips in their guns. After everybody is equipped. ZEUS Hey you, you were the leader before I got here right. (A Precarious Foothold) MILLITIA SQUADRON 2 FIELD COMMANDER Yeah. ZEUS Ok we split up. Speak through me assist. CUT TO: INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER ATHENA groups of 6 leave the park over here. Athena points to a location on the middle of the edge of the square park and at another location in the middle of an edge adjacent to the edge the other 6 soldiers were going. EXT. FIELD IN TYPE 2 COLONY ZEUS Leave over there. Zeus points. INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER ATHENA over here. Keep in line formation. STEX infantry will fill in the V and take out the rest of them. ZOOM TO: EXT. FOREST IN TYPE 2 COLONY Zeus is in front, 5 millita directly behind him, firing into the woods. Eventually after killing a few of the enemy STEX, the Western STEX triquater lance forms when they walk into the V with the other group of 6. Now the 18 soldiers are Lance 1. SKY COMMANDER (VO) Ok lance 1 I want you to secure the cross-substation. (Cross-substation is in reference to a substation that gives both latitudinal and longitudinal transportation.) Lance 2, you are to spearhead an assault through suburbia to get to the other substation. (A Precarious Foothold) SKY COMMANDER (VO; CONT'D) Then you are all to be transported to the substation secured by lance We've got a couple of porcupines waiting for you millitia. Cheers from the millitia- MILLITIA 1 Hell ya porcupines are awesome. SKY COMMANDER (VO) All arriving STEX proceed to join lance 1. Any questions. Proceed with caution. Garret, in STEX, and Zeus look at each other for a second. Garret turns and bolts into a run, along with his men. ZEUS All men, Forward RUUUN!!! EXT. STREETS IN TYPE 2 COLONY Zeus runs at the head of the men through the city streets, while a Western STEX triquater lance jumps from roof to roof ahead. People on the streets are cheering, calling out names of millitia. Eventually after a couple light hostile encounters, the STEX begin to jump down to the streets, where they guard the area around the substation at the corner of a major intersection. GARRET You 6 STEX enter the substation. Zeus comes to a stop, and does a backwards flip to land behind the out of breath group of millita. Zeus begins running backwards covering the flank. Zeus is looking through his rear view monitor to center himself and keep from running into anybody. The Substation is a room, with an area to stand with advertisements just like any subway. The room is large enough to house two trains in each of the 2 perpendicular directions. The floor under the two superconducting mag rails, is clean diamond, looking out into space, spinning. INT. SMALL SUBWAY STATION IN TYPE 2 COLONY AND INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER They all make it to the subway, and the STEX have already departed to the other substation. (A Precarious Foothold) Zeus and the 10 survivors, 5 STEX, 5 naked millitia, get onto the next maglev transport, and it disembarks. The train uses its sharp nose to penetrate the membrane, while its equally sharp tail allows the membrane to flow back into place maintaining the seal constantly. The nose is extremely sharp at the front, has a stable 30 degree incline till a rounded decrease to 0 degrees as the curve approaches the edge. The train goes very fast, and slams through an unoccupied station at full speed, the membrane still constantly maintains the seal. SKY COMMANDER Alright all forces, we are going to charge the security station as fast as we possibly can. They have done well to fortify, so it will be hard to take but we must do it quickly so we can turn this colony around and get it into friendly space. The third rail begins to slow the train down as it approaches the destination subway. The train comes to a halt. INT. LARGE SUBWAY STATION IN TYPE 2 COLONY SQUAD COMMANDER (VO) Hurry up! They're attacking your position, I will direct you. Show the 2nd squadron just getting up the stairs firing at 4 men at the top of the stairs. At the top of the stairs you see the 2 porcupines, tanks with a small turret and a bunch of little guns. Show the millitia begin to walk up the stairs. Show the last two men run out each open one of the porcupines. Swivel the camera to Zeus and the millitia coming up the stairs. They run to the porcupine, just as one of the last two STEX are waving behind as he passes under the slowly moving garage door. The other STEX is getting in the cockpit of the porcupine. ZEUS Get in now. Zeus waves his assault riffle to signal them to come. They follow Zeus into the porcupine. Zeus is the driver. Zeus goes to the cockpit and turns it on. Zeus just begins to see our forces firing just out side the door. (A Precarious Foothold) They are sidestepping out of the way. Zeus spins up the motor. GARRET Ready to go out, we follow you. Garret signals to go. ZEUS Move in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0! EXT. SUBURBIA IN TYPE 2 COLONY Porcupines come out of the garage, the fighting becomes very intense, very fast. The gunners turn and begin pounding the enemy running around on the street. Zeus takes an immediate left, the STEX are following Zeus, barely. A road block becomes viewable ahead, the gunners are shooting. 1 Western STEX dies, 4 remaining. ZEUS Turn left! Each block is a three house length and width square with a middle garden. Zeus almost rolls as he turns a sharp hand-brake turn to make it. The other porcupine is breaking more to get around the corner. The gun begins firing as soon as the first porcupine gets all wheels on the ground. OTHER DRIVER I just lost my gunner, I lost my fucking gunner. naked millitia remaining. 2 in Zeus's porcupine, 2 in Other Driver's porcupine ZEUS SHIT, it will be alright, we can cope. A right, another, immediate left. Gunners turn to shoot at the passed road block. The Western porcupines and the Western STEX, still just behind the porcupines, kill the last couple of troops at the ghetto road block. 1 Western STEX dies, 3 remaining. You can see a little bit down the road, the security station, with its blown up gun pods out front, the enemy STEX inside are shooting through holes in the armored plasma shell proof wall. The porcupines fired from the forward turret at each gun hole with a gun sticking out of it. (A Precarious Foothold) After killing two gunners the enemy STEX move away from the porcupine. 2 Western STEX leave one of the porcupine's walk up and shot a couple probes into the holes, the probes, transmit visual data to command that calculates exactly where each of the troops are. This information is relayed through the STEX communication, to the Colony's cellular system to the radio emitters to command then back to Colonial cell system to the porcupines giving a heads up display of where the enemies were outlined. ZEUS Fire on my mark.. NOW! enemies dead by the 2 forward Western STEX. The other two Eastern STEX are targeted as the porcupine turret, and display, moves to keep up with the runners. Boom Boom the last 2 Easterners are dead. of the 2 STEX C-7s the door open. SKY COMMANDER Porcupines drive in first. Get to the first room then stay there. ZEUS Ok. OTHER DRIVER Ok. INT. SECURITY STATION IN TYPE 2 COLONY They drive in shooting at a few STEX scattered in a little garage. The STEX run in. One of the dormant tanks begins to move. Garret and a couple of other STEX throw plastique on it and blow it to hell. The STEX run into the control room. Zeus shoots 1 enemy STEX that just walked in the room, and walks to the other tank in the room. Zeus gets in. Zeus turns the tank on since he has been trained to do so. ZEUS Porcupine 1 get a new driver and follow me out. Fill the porcupine with the STEX soldiers. Zeus drive the tank in front. The porcupine with all the millita inside follows soon. You drive out to the left lane it leaves on the right lane. ZEUS Everybody in Porcupine 2 get out. (A Precarious Foothold) The millita follow Zeus out the door and down the road, to the city, they are to guard. EXT. SUBURBIA/CITY IN TYPE 2 COLONY AND INT. SKY COMMAND Zeus is driving down the street, when Zeus sees a couple of enemy Porcupines driving towards him. Zeus's tank turret fires at one of the porcupines knocking it's head off killing the driver. The other Porcupine drives around the corner before the tank could turn to hit it. The millitia begin throwing three high explosives grenades on the porcupine. ZEUS DETONATE, remember to say Detonate. Zeus turns the corner in pursuit of the Porcupine. Zeus fires semiautomatic rounds. Zeus's tank begins aiming as the damaged porcupine turns the corner. ZEUS All STEX go towards the security station 1 of the porcupines is flanking us. OTHER DRIVER This way, you 3, on that building. Jump up with me. They jump up and begin throwing grenades from above, the enemy STEX are leaving the vehicle. OTHER DRIVER Detonate. All of the enemy die. 1 enemy STEX were pushed down the street, he is shot. Zeus drives up the street engaging a tank that looks exactly like his. ZEUS TANK! Zeus turns the turret to fire, but it is too late, Zeus is already hit, in the engine. But Zeus still gets two consecutive rounds into the other tank. The Eastern tank fires into Zeus's main turret, disabling it. ZEUS FUCK, I'm gone, all units fall back, garrison in the buildings to C-7 the tanks. (A Precarious Foothold) Zeus is climbing up the ladder to get out of there. Just as he opens the hatch, 1 round crashes into the tank, sending Zeus off the ladder. Zeus scrambles to get up and begins frantically climbing the ladder. Zeus gets out and runs to the opposite building, before the machine gun can pan to train on him. ZEUS GET out of here Other Driver,, NOW! Zeus climbs the fire escape stairs to gets onto the roof. Zeus looks over the edge, while he takes out his big explosive package. Zeus looks over the edge to see the Eastern tank begin to engage the Western porcupine. The porcupines front tires are shot out first, disabling its steering ability. The porcupine fires its main cannon at the tank with no visible effect. The porcupine tries to move, but the back tires aren't enough to steer it away. Instead it runs into the corner of a building. ATHENA Do not leave the Porcupine, they will kill you. Zeus throws down his C-7 packages that sticks onto the front of the tank. ZEUS DETONATE. The entire front of the tank explodes, effectively destroying the tank, the turret goes spinning forward till it hits the porcupine. ZEUS Ok leave the porcupine, it's safe. One of the naked millitia's EKG goes into arrest. ATHENA Sniper, sniper, all units get under cover. Zeus dives from the building into a shoulder roll. SKY COMMANDER Ok people, I want you to move deeper into the city. ZEUS When is one of the triquater lances going to become available. (A Precarious Foothold) SKY COMMANDER They will be leaving in a couple of seconds. Hold onto your panties, they'll be there. ZEUS Can you tell them to pick up the last porcupine. Zeus shoots out a window in his building and across the alley. SKY COMMANDER Yeah, and you can look forward to a few more vehicles being launched from both sides, the East has just finished synthesizing a light BiMAV. ZEUS Awww Fuck. Zeus says as he dives across the alley to the corresponding window. ZEUS Squad Leader take over my command for a sec. SQUAD LEADER Ok. ZEUS I want micromanagement, I want a window snipage sync, then I want assistants to launch scout probes from the STEX, to monitor building takeovers. SQUAD LEADER Affirm. ATHENA So sugar, you think you can snipe from a corner. Zeus sees her pointer at the corner. ZEUS The corner right, I can do it. ATHENA Remember, silent and low. Zeus crawls very slowly to the window. (A Precarious Foothold) SQUAD COMMANDER Everybody get up in the windows in 8 seconds, 6,, 5,, 4,, 3,, 2,, 1,, UP! Zeus snipes out of the right window first picking one confused STEX, then turns to the other window, where a STEX has a grenade in his hand and is looking for where the sniper is. Zeus shoots him in the head, then immediately runs to the stair well, down to ground floor, Zeus leans outside the window and looks down the street at nothing else but 6 enemy carcasses. ZEUS Long range scout. A large scout comes out and flies around the city for a few minutes until it is shot. ZEUS SHIT, where was that? SQUAD COMMANDER They are in the next block over. Squad Commander outlines it on the map. SQUAD COMMANDER All you here cross the street and go to these buildings, wait hold that.. SQUAD COMMANDER I just got a visual on those troops, STEX are marching with two porcupines, this complicates it somewhat. Harass them until our STEX leave the security station. Try if you can to get rid of the porcupines. SQUAD COMMANDER And um,,, um,,, the 24 are jumping from building to building. Run along the street to these buildings. DO IT NOW DO IT FAST! Zeus bolts down the street. Some of the millitia are jumping out of windows, and following behind Zeus down the street. ATHENA I want you to plastique this porcupine first, we don't have anything that can blow a hole in the tank. (A Precarious Foothold) Zeus, the 3 STEX, and the 4 millitia, are running into various buildings on this side of the road. All 7 of them sneak to the window, where they look over to the convoy. Zeus gets on the roof and sneaks to the edge with his small plastique. SQUAD COMMANDER Grenades people, I am synching detonation with me, throw in 3,, 2,, throw. About 5 grenades become strewn along the street. Zeus throws his down to the porcupine. SQUAD COMMANDER DETONATE! A huge combined explosion blows out all windows on the block. The few Eastern STEX that were running with this convoy are now dead along with their porcupine. ZEUS SHIT! Advise! ATHENA They are everywhere go down the stairs, prepare for engagement in building. ZEUS Yeah sure. Zeus runs down to the 2nd floor, where he runs past 2 Western STEX guarding the door. ZEUS Fall back to the ally, fall back. Start backing away. Window breaks, another window breaks. ZEUS SHIT THEY'RE IN THE BUILDING SURROUNDING US. The 2 millita get shot up leaving 2 remaining. Zeus lobs a grenade to the stairway. ZEUS Detonate! Enemy STEX enters from a door opposite the stairwell. Zeus shoots at him, and hits him in the arm, he backs off. (A Precarious Foothold) Zeus reaches for a grenade without looking, only to realize he ran out. Zeus begins shooting at the wall as he backs off looking at his rear view display. Zeus does a back-flip out of the window, and lands almost perfectly on the ground in front of the door. Enemy STEX standing in the doorway are somewhat awed. Zeus lifts his riffle a bit and shoots the fuck out of them as Zeus charges in. The last militias' EKG goes critical. ZEUS Fuck Athena! Where is that god damn friendly lance? SKY COMMANDER They are moving to your position in a Porcupine as we speak, they will begin engagements in a matter of seconds. ZEUS Thank god, please advise. A green travel arrow appears, Zeus without hesitating runs to follows and dives across the alley to through the opposite window. Roll to position. ZEUS Sweep the building. ATHENA Deploying 2 lights now. The probes scout around the building looking for the enemy STEX. As Zeus is walking stealthy to though a room, a red outline appears behind him, his peripheral vision picks it up, Zeus turns amazingly quickly and pounds the outline with a fully automatic and accurate stream of bullets. The outline falls to the ground and fades to black. ATHENA Nice, that was quick. ZEUS Thanks, building secure, advise. ATHENA No it's not. Look up, lost probe, bullets won't penetrate the floor anyways. YOU HAVE BEEN PROBED! RUN NOW! Athena outlines the path to take. Zeus bolts up the stairs. (A Precarious Foothold) Zeus's upper head is above the floor level. A bullet scathes across Zeus's helmet. ZEUS HOLY SHIT! Zeus is scarred to death. Zeus puts the gun above the floor level, and shoots, in the black imprint of where the enemy STEX is. Zeus shoots the door handle out. Zeus bolts up and around, still in x-ray. Zeus sees the body laying on the ground lifeless. ZEUS Well, we got hi- INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER SKY COMMANDER Roof! Now! Evac out of porcupine and ram the closest vehicle, drive function. A function appears. Sky commander throws it up. Lands at a driver's console. ZOOM INTO: EXT. CITY STREET IN TYPE 2 COLONY AND INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER Porcupine driving. Zoom out to see the Western STEX get up and walk to the back, where 2 Western STEX Commandos, riffle in hand are jumping out of the Porcupine. 4 STEX have already jumped up the road. The Driver is the last to get out. The Driver is shot almost the instant he stands up. Zoom out from Eastern sniper, nestled just behind the tank. A bullet goes right through the snipers head, vertically into his neck. Zoom out from Zeus's riffle. ATHENA The other side, a STEX is making for cover. Camera swings to Zeus's helmet as he zooms to street, X10. ZEUS I don't see anything. Explosion in the background from porcupine ramming other porcupine, with explosives. Zeus is still zoomed into empty pavement, completely unmoved from the explosion. (A Precarious Foothold) ATHENA Shit he got away. The other STEX will get it. Zeus jump to that building. Zeus jumps to the next rooftop still running. ATHENA Oh no.. he is going to find the millita. ZEUS Fill me in, show me. The entire right side of the screen fills in from Athena console. She is viewing from Millita 1. MILITIA 1 Excuse me commander. SKY COMMANDER I've got a squad on it, they are coming up the stairs as we speak. MILITIA 2 What the fuck! IT'S A PROBE! Millita 2 is running into the room. About a second later his chest explodes, from a triplet of bullets coming out forming three holes that form an almost perfect equilateral triangle. Falls, face into the ground. Millitia looks down at the corpse. MILITIA 1 SHOOT AT THE WALL! QUAD COMMANDER Their guns aren't powerful enough to pierce through the walls and his armor??! cease fire. Bullets will NOT penetrate through that vector! Zeus is still doing his job providing sniper coverage. A bit preoccupied though. Before you even know it, the probe flies back into the room. QUAD COMMANDER Quantum maneuvers! MILITIA 1 WHAT THE FUCK ARE QUANTum (A Precarious Foothold) QUAD COMMANDER Rapid sporadic maneuvers! A spray of bullets sweeps across the room, killing two millitia. The third millita hits the deck. When Millita 1 dies we see through his eyes as he falls onto the floor facing the door to the stair well. QUAD COMMANDER RUUN, GET THE FUCK OUTTA THERE. The guy who hit the deck gets up and runs, low, towards the nearest stairwell in the building. He is shot by a triplet in the back. INT. STAIRWELL IN HOUSE IN TYPE 2 COLONY This time view from probe. STEX LANCE 2 QUAD 1, 2 Closing in. A probe goes on ahead of him, and sees the enemy STEX outlined in red, he begins shooting again. Athena switches the view back to STEX lance 2 Quad 1, 2, where it is very hard to aim through the layers of stairs. STEX lance 2 Quad 2 walks to the door frame to get a better shoot and shoots The Eastern STEX in the leg, the only place where it would penetrate behind the steep angled stairwell. View is switched to STEX LANCE 2 quad 3, 4, who is running into the room where all six of the millitia died. He aims quickly at the injured enemy. He spares no amount of bullets in blasting this guy away- STEX LANCE 2 QUAD 3, 4 MOTHER FUCKER!! Half view again as STEX LANCE 2 quad 1, 2 begins shooting at the falling corpse. STEX LANCE 2 QUAD 3, 4 Shit we failed, they're all dead. Show tanks, full right panel. STEX LANCE 1, QUAD 1, 4 myrmidon tanks rolling out. Show sky commander upper right panel. (A Precarious Foothold) SKY COMMANDER Ok here is operation status. All millita dead. Lance 1, Lance 3, and Unit 1 of Lance 2 are to report to the urban center, where we will hold our stand. SKY COMMANDER friendly STEX commandos on the ground, and 24 friendly STEX in 2 dolphin class transports on their way. Estimated 50-60 enemy commandos, with 2 light BiMAV and an unknown number of ground vehicles. SKY COMMANDER Prepare to ambush enemy troops between ______ and ______ along the street that they are running down, _______. Dolphins will dock in... 7 minutes. Good luck. EXT. EDGE OF CITY IN TYPE 2 COLONIES The enemy STEX troops are running with their light BiMAV. Three Western snipers pick off 3 enemy STEX. The Eastern BiMAV fires its right cannon at one of the Western STEX blowing him in half, while the left arm, the machine gun, shoots around where the second Western STEX was hiding. The sniper is killed. ATHENA ENEMY BiMAV coming out of the park! The Eastern BiMAV just gets out of the trees when he begins firing everything he's got at the 3rd sniper. SKY COMMANDER Hold positions they are going into the city now. BiMAV 2 that came out of the woods jumps onto the nearest building, a second before Eastern BiMAV 1 does. ZEUS BiMAVs are on the roofs, plant C-7 on the ceiling to trap them into a building. BiMAV 2 runs to the very edge of a building, where it plants both feet onto the corner to jump over the alley. It is able to put more pressure on the exterior wall than on the center of the building. It lands just inside the building. (A Precarious Foothold) SKY COMMANDER BiMAVs are on opposite sides of main street, supporting STEX infantry and porcupine driving up the street. The BiMAVs can and will kill snipers. Stay low and all main street snipers do not shoot. ATHENA Garret looks like it will be running over you. Plant explosives here, to be detonated by my signal. GARRET Sure. Garret runs over to the purple marker and throws up his sticky plastique. ATHENA Jump out of the building, all units with left over explosives converge on this building. Show Garret dive out of the window as the BiMAV jumps onto the building. Watch from a long range probe as the BiMAV walks to the center of the building. INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER Camera focused on Athena's hands as they close violently- ATHENA Detonate! Refocus onto her screen to watch the BiMAV hopelessly fall down one floor, and onto the next, until all the floors pancake to the basement level. Rubble surrounds the BiMAV, as it moves around slightly. Over the next 7 seconds a few grenades fall in. Explosion covers everything. EXT. CITY IN TYPE 2 COLONY AND INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER SQUAD COMMANDER Ok STEX Lance 2, unit 1, the BiMAV is about to pass under you plant explosives on the roof. Show the second BiMAV jump off of the building onto the streets. SQUAD COMMANDER Negate that order, BiMAV has jumped down to streets, myrmidons surround and destroy enemy BiMAV. (A Precarious Foothold) STEX LANCE 1, QUAD 1, 4 Affirmative Squad commander, proposing myrmidon attack formation. Show 2 myrmidons trajectories to synchronously arrive at opposite points of a city block. SQUAD COMMANDER Will work, proceed with perfection. It can take you out pretty quickly. A whole bunch of medium probes leave the back of the BiMAV and fly around buildings providing attack coordinates. The BiMAV waits for the infantry and for the porcupine to close in before it begins its charge towards the security station. Firing randomly at buildings and firing at provided targets. SQUAD COMMANDER Myrmidon 2 you are falling behind, step it up to 140% safe velocity. Myrmidon 1 maintain course and speed. STEX LANCE 1, QUAD 1, 3 Affirm. STEX LANCE 1, QUAD 1, 4 Affim speeding up. The BiMAV continues all the way down the long block. The BiMAV continues down the next block still shooting into buildings. Myrmidon 1 comes out from the left intersection just in front of the BiMAV. Turret is already turned. Myrmidon 1 quickly acquires target and fires, it is still moving at full velocity. The Myrmidon machine gun is moving around spraying at enemy STEX. The Eastern BiMAV jumps in evasion. Begins firing violently at the Myrmidon 1 with both arms. Zoom out to show Myrmidon 2 skid into main street. Turret is half turned, once it has stopped turret turns and acquires. Myrmidon 1 gets one more shot off before it is brutally pulverized. STEX 1, 1, 3 goes critical. BiMAV is still standing there making sure it is dead, when Myrmidon 2 turret stops moving. Boom, turret recoils. CUT TO: The Western light BiMAV's left leg is blown off entirely. Falls over on right, semi-automatic cannon, arm. Myrmidon 2 tank begins firing on troops with machine gun. Myrmidon 2 tank fires again at BiMAV hitting the operator. (A Precarious Foothold) The enemy BiMAV falls over from a crawling position. SKY COMMANDER SNIPERS, UP! Uniform death of enemy STEX in street as grenades are thrown and riffles fired(held up with arms only while their heads are still under cover) from surrounding buildings. Myrmidon fires main cannon at porcupine in the gun turret disabling it, and almost turning it over. Show Zeus on roof top firing downward. STEX press on into the city, because they are trapped from behind. Myrmidon 2 fires at front axle disabling the Porcupine. Three enemy STEX standing. OF 3 ENEMY STEX LETS GET OUT OF HERE! Says the leader as he signals to get to houses. Leader shot dead, followed by the next to the upper left, then the last to the upper right. Zoom out to all of the carnage as porcupine is shot by Myrmidon 2 tank and blown up by grenades. An enemy STEX is only injured and still crawling along the ground. Bang he is dead. HORIZONTAL GREEN TRACKING LINES CLOSE PICTURE TO BLACK SCREEN: A RESPITE FADE IN: EXT. LOW GEE OPEN SPACE PORT Zeus arrives through the SINSS air lock. ATHENA Zeus you have lived again. ZEUS I know baby I am a god I can't die. ATHENA Neither can I. ZEUS But we might get taken. ATHENA No that is never going to happen. I am ready to love you now, I want what little time we may have together to be very special. ZEUS I've been waiting to hear that, let's get back to my place. ATHENA Sounds good to me. ZEUS Don't worry we will have infinite time together. ATHENA I'm just afraid. Zeus gently touches her face. ZEUS Don't be we will make it through till the end of the war. Zeus leans in to kiss Athena. They make out. CUT TO: (A Respite) INT. CAR Zeus and Athena start making out with feeling up of genitals. CAR We have arrived at our destination. ATHENA I can't let you come in it hurts me too much. ZEUS Don't worry I know how much you loved Kelly. ATHENA It's how much you loved Artemis. ZEUS That is why I'll wait until your ready. ATHENA You won't have to wait that long. Bye Zeus. Athena gets out of car. ZEUS See ya Athena. CUT TO: INT. BRIEFING ROOM ZEUS Your.. Your. TITAN Yes, it is good to see the real person. ZEUS Well I didn't even know you existed in reality, you seem like- TITAN A transient being. Yes I wanted it to be that way. ZEUS Right. .. .. .. (A Respite) TITAN Well Zeus I should better get to the point. You are not just another extremely excellent soldier to us but a miracle worker, we put you in any situation and things just seem to work out perfectly. ZEUS So I am like a lucky rabbits foot. ATHENA No you are an EXTREMELY lucky rabbits foot. ZEUS Thanks. TITAN colonies, your team is going to take 4 exactly the same colonies in the same hour. We have got teams to finish securing them, but we need the elite to run through and slit their throats. ZEUS You should put me in a mission where I don't have a quadruple risk. TITAN No our risk assessment was relatively low. You will be fighting only a few standard security forces, not quite space's finest. ZEUS Oh show me the specs. TITAN Basically 16 of you will march through the port security center, drive up the length of the cylinder, and capture the Security Center on the other end so that we can activate native rockets to drive the 4 colonies into friendly space so we can deploy secondary takeover crews. ZEUS Why don't you just drop us off on the end we need to drive to. (A Respite) TITAN Because we can knock out the auto cannons on the side facing us and not the side facing the East. ATHENA Oh,, that's a good reason. CUT TO: SIMULATED 4 OF A KIND INT. PORT SECURITY ROOM IN TYPE 3 COLONY AND INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER Zeus is in a the Port Security Room, with 28 other STEX. The room is pure white with one mirror covering most of one wall. Aww, last but not least. SKY COMMANDER down, 1 to go. The door opens Zeus walks out. A guard is alarmed and reaches for his plasma riffle. Zeus shots him. Zeus presses his STEXED finger to the security pad. THE DOOR Entry approved General. Zeus throws a grenade in. Zeus pulls out his assault riffle from his back. Zeus's comrade gives him 1 of the 2 breifcases he is holding and pulls out his riffle. Zeus walks outside- EXT. COMMERCIAL DISTRICT IN TYPE 3 COLONY while they take out a few guards. Zeus put the shinny metal briefcase under his crotch- ZEUS Mag Cycle, deploy. The Briefcase unfolds into a small magcycle. Zeus sits down and mounts his riffle on the rotateable mount point. The engine has already started, and Zeus is hovering, ready to zoom away. Zeus rides down from the low gee area to the 1 gee level. The colony's roads form a virtually perfect grid wrapped around to form a cylinder. Laterals go around the cylinder, while longitudes go from one 0 gee docking point to the other. The 28 originally are all driving down the same road but as they approach ground level the road diverges. 28 become around 14, then around 7, then 3 or 4. (Simulated 4 of a kind) After a long drive through the suburban space colony the 28 re-converge firing on the Eastern security. They are stupid and easy to kill. INT. SECURITY CENTER IN TYPE 3 COLONY Zeus storms the security center and finishes disabling the colonies auto-security system, and activates colonial movement jets. Then Zeus is about to get on the red cross rescue shuttle and rocket out of dock, but many Eastern STEX just arrived- ARTEMIS (VO) RUN! GET THE FUCK OUTTA THERE NOW! Zeus takes 2 down before he is shot dead. Pause for 3 seconds. CUT TO: INT. SIMULATOR ROOM ZEUS Shit, that's bullshit they couldn't respond with that kind of force, that quickly. Zeus says as he remove the virtual reality helmet. TITAN We must train you for the worst, so that when things work well it seems like a breeze, and when things go horribly you are still prepared. OF A KIND UNIT 1 Yeah dude don't let it hurt your ego it's just a simulator. Zeus says seemingly depressed- ZEUS Your right I should think less of myself only if I die in real life. Athena sits next to him beginning to comfort him. (Simulated 4 of a kind) ATHENA Zeus you did fine you fought well to the end. You are always supposed to die on the final sim run. It's needed to reduce arrogance on the real mission. ZEUS Your right Athena. CUT TO: REAL 4 OF A KIND SPC. JUST OUTSIDE 4 TYPE 3 COLONIES The 4 colonies are connected by a zero gee nonfilled in square on the side facing Western territory the left. Rapid sequence of mission proceeding like the simulation(except for the end) for first three colonies. (Montage of 3 type 3 colonial takeovers. Multiply below by 3.) INT.

(Real 4 of a Kind) (End of montage of 3 type 3 colonial takeovers. Multiply above by 3.) SKY COMMANDER Ok last 1 people stay sharp don't let the ease of the last 3 takeovers get to your head. They walk into the Port Security Room The 28 originally are all driving down the same road but as they approach ground level the road diverges. 14 become 7, then 3 or 4. Zeus is part of 4. All roads in the commercial district of this colony type are single lane 1 way roads meaning that buildings are close enough together to jump from commercial building to commercial building. The buildings in the commercial district are all 3 stories. The roofs of the buildings there have 3 foot barriers all around to keep somebody from falling off. CUT TO: EXT. COMMERCIAL DISTRICT IN TYPE 3 COLONY Keep on driving. CUT TO: EXT. SUBURBIA IN TYPE 3 COLONY Keep on driving. CUT TO: EXT. COMMERCIAL DISTRICT IN TYPE 3 COLONY AND INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER Swing camera above road Zeus is driving on while rotating so that left to right on the screen is exactly perpendicular to the road. Move camera all the way around the colony keeping it directly above road while not rotating it. Show complete road blocks that go as high as the roofs of the buildings come up on every road just in front of the 32 Western STEX. OF A KIND UNIT 1 WHAT THE FUCK. Just then light BiMAVs reach their arms to shoot between the blockade and the building at every other blockade but not Zeus's. SKY COMMANDER EVERYBODY turn around AND GET THE FUCK OUT OF THERE! (Real 4 of a Kind) The magcycles fall onto the ground. Eastern STEX begin firing from commercial buildings. ATHENA They stopped powering the road. ZEUS YEAH I KNOW! SKY COMMANDER Get to cover immediately. Zeus and the 1 survivor from his quad make it to one of the commercial buildings. ZEUS There are too many enemy STEX and BiMAVs we can't fight here we have to blow out. SKY COMMANDER Negative soldier since this colony is far enough from the Eastern fleet due to the 3 other colony's rocket fire we are just going to send 64 more STEX at the other side of the colony. OF A KIND UNIT 2 Let's jump from roof to roof and reconnoiter in 1 location farther from their STEX. Show Zeus jumping from building to building. SKY COMMANDER Exactly after most of you come together just keep on running the reinforcements will be there when you get to the commercial district on the other side of the colony. ZEUS Roger that, but how are we going to take down those light BiMAVs. SKY COMMANDER Today we shall unveil something new; a shoulder cannon on each STEX. Everybody on the 4 dolphins is getting one. You are going to get yours once you reach the commercial district. (Real 4 of a Kind) More and more troops start jumping along side Zeus. They are spread out between 3 buildings parallel to their movement. Sometimes the Eastern STEX kill an Western STEX, the opposite happens although less often because the Easterners can take cover in the buildings. When 23 of them have arrived near Zeus the Commercial district ends and they jump down to run down the street in suburbia. EXT. SUBURBIA IN TYPE 3 COLONY ZEUS Why isn't there a lance of BiMAV on our ass. OF A KIND UNIT 3 Maybe they got caught behind that road block. OF A KIND UNIT 4 The road blocks are probably on the same circuit as the magroads. A group of 4 enemy STEX run out of a house, they are all killed by the Westerners. One of the Westerners dies as well. CUT TO: INT. DOLPHIN TRANSPORT A recording of a Female Instructor is displayed for each STEX(with shoulder cannons) on monitors in the isle between the booths. Show what is being talked about in the video screen. FEMALE INSTRUCTER The shoulder cannon expands from a compressed state so that it fires high velocity shells that are also high yield shells which if combined with a synchronous shooting aimed at 1 of a BiMAVs week points can disable the functionality of that part of the BiMAV. FEMALE INSTRUCTER If you break a BiMAVs leg it will still be able to fire at you with 1 of its arms and the machine gun on its head. (Real 4 of a Kind) FEMALE INSTRUCTER In combat with STEX only going up against a BiMAV it is recommended that you systematically destroy its firing components starting from the machine gun and then taking out its arms. FEMALE INSTRUCTER The head machine gun should be taken out first because it has the highest rate of speed at aiming. FEMALE INSTRUCTER The only downside is that you will run out of ammunition if you don't refine the ground under your feet or get to a resupply STEX or BiMAV. OF A KIND 2ND GROUP LEADER (BLACK GUY) You heard the lady, you gotzta all aim at the head gun and take it down first then the arms then the legs then go onto the next one. DOLPHIN PIOLT We are arriving at the commercial district now. OF A KIND 2ND GROUP LEADER Lock and load people. The dolphin shakes as it docks with the colony.

SKY COMMAND CENTER SKY COMMANDER Get down to the replicators and get yourselves some shoulder cannons. ATHENA The replicators are in the basement Zeus and the 7 STEX he is with go down to the basement and run into the large replicator. The replicator seals. FADE TO: The replicator opens and they all have shoulder cannons. ATHENA STEX are coming down on your position, get to the underground commercial connector. OF A KIND UNIT 6 What's that? ATHENA It is an underground grid of pathways underneath the commercial district. Eastern STEX charge up the staircase out of the basement. All 4 Eastern STEX are taken down along with 1 of the 8 Western STEX are taken down. CUT TO: INT. COMMERCIAL DISTRICT BUILDING 2 IN TYPE 3 COLONY AND INT.

Stay below the Facade we don't want anybody to see you. (Real 4 of a Kind) OF A KIND 2ND GROUP LEADER So we just wait for their BiMAVs to come then pound the fuck out of them with our shoulder cannons. SKY COMMANDER Right-o. CUT TO: Zeus and the 12 other STEX are running through the connector. ATHENA Get out at this doorway. SKY COMMANDER Athena tell them to walk to the street. ATHENA Get right out in the middle of the intersection. Zeus and his 12 STEX get to the basement of- INT. BUILDING 1 IN COMMERCIAL DISTRICT OF TYPE 3 COLONY AND INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER ZEUS But what about the BiMAVs. SKY COMMANDER You are the bait for the BiMAVs. Zeus is in the store front. ZEUS Greeeat. Zeus walks out the front door and kills a lone Eastern STEX. SKY COMMANDER Good job they are sending 4 of the light BiMAVs and 16 STEX. ZEUS Can we get to cover. SKY COMMANDER Yeah get to the roof. CUT TO: Zeus and his 12 STEX standing on roof firing at the enemy STEX. (Real 4 of a Kind) ATHENA Get down and spread out in cover. The trap is about to spring. Zeus and his 12 STEX follow orders and spread out over the back of the building. ATHENA Yeah pretend I said get to the back of the building as well. ZEUS Don't worry nobody's perfect. CUT TO DIFFERENT SHOTS OF THE TAKE OVER CREW: Show mainstay of the takeover crew with feet refining the ground to gain ammunition for their shoulder cannons. SKY COMMANDER (VO) Wait for my order to come up, waiiit, waaiiiiiiit, (BiMAVs reach 12th and A street) ALL forces up now. of the 77 STEX Zeus included begin launching synchronous shoulder cannons disabling the 4 BiMAV's top machine gun. Show interfacing of targets highlighted and autoaiming. ZOOM OUT OF SCREEN TO SHOW: Athena directing the fire by touching the critical component to be fired on. CUT TO: Then arms, then legs. At the same time the Eastern STEX are being shot at with their riffles. 9 Western STEX are killed mainly by the BiMAV machine guns leaving 68 including Zeus. The Eastern STEX run into buildings where the remaining 16 of the 68 kill anybody who walks into a building. CUT TO: INT.

Move camera just a certain distance away from them as they charge towards 12th and A street in fast motion. When they are at a point directly in between the outer reaches of the Western STEX. SKY COMMANDER They've stopped here all units converge on these 2 buildings. Sky commander points to buildings on either side of the 12 BiMAVs. More Western forces arrive at the roof. OF A KIND UNIT 7 Over the top people, let's take those BiMAVs down. Soldiers on both sides begin to take out the BiMAVs knocking out the machine guns first. The Eastern BiMAV arms and machine guns pummel the troops. Eastern troops begin walking up the wall like spiderman, when they get to the top they begin taking out the Western STEX. OF A KIND UNIT 8 How the fuck did they get up here. OF A KIND UNIT 7 The must be able to walkup walls with nanotubular hooks. SKY COMMANDER Fall back to the other side of the building and take out the wall climbers as they get over the top. Western troops fall back to the other side of the roof. Eastern troops come up and over the wall the West has backed into. (Real 4 of a Kind) Now Easterners are coming up both wall taking down many Westerners. SKY COMMANDER They are vulnerable when they climb, STEX get to the other sides of these buildings and knock them from the walls. OF A KIND UNIT 9 Roger that. STEX go down the roads and fire on the wall climbers. SKY COMMANDER Roof forces aim over the walls opposite where the BiMAVs are to support the flanking. The Easterners jump down from the walls and fire back. The West wins after many casualties from the forces who jumped on the ground. SKY COMMANDER Those that flanked them get back to the roofs so we can take the BiMAVs down into the ground. INT.

They attack the rest of the BiMAV machine gun turrets then the arms. When the Western STEX begin to take out the Eastern BiMAV's legs- EASTERN BIMAV OPERATOR (SPEAKER) Ok we surrender you win. BiMAV operator dismounts into a STEX. WESTERN STEX Cheering. CUT TO: CONSPIRACY THEORY 3 INT. ZEUS'S LIVING ROOM ATHENA Hey Zeus look at this. ZEUS What is it. ATHENA I found a link to what is supposedly an Eastern Propaganda website. www.FreeWorldAlliance.biz dot 'b' 'i' 'z' ZEUS It is probably just bullshit. ATHENA No they support the mind control and total monitoring state. ZEUS How could you possible support such evil agendas. ATHENA Well unlike our military systems which are fully autistic theirs are controlled and networked through a singular node. ZEUS What happens when a virus infects the core node. ATHENA This is pretty ridiculous but they say they captured a monolith on the moon about the size of a VHS tape. Capcom Joe Alien directed the Apollo 15 Astronauts to recover it from a truncated pentagonal pyramid on the moon. ZEUS Excuse me. (Conspiracy Theory 3) ATHENA A progenitor alien device which is connected to the internet. ZEUS So what is their broad spectral tight multichannel fiber optics connected all over it. ATHENA Exactly so that it is the connected so it can assimilate most of the data on their internet. ZEUS Wow that's pretty awesome. ATHENA Anyways, once everything is fed into that the alien device can repair all problems. ZEUS Well why have any programming on it at all if that does everything. ATHENA Well I guess the Aliens wouldn't do anything if the East was that lazy. ZEUS It could also just turn everything against us like in The Terminator. ATHENA But the aliens are probably nice, and considering what that device is capable of there probably is nothing we could do anyways if the progenitor aliens turned on us. ZEUS What else is on the website. ATHENA There's a lot of weird mystical information which culminates in a unified theory I haven't read yet. ZEUS So does it have any conspiracy theories. (Conspiracy Theory 3) ATHENA Yeah there is the cause of inflation. ZEUS What compounding of interest? ATHENA No the government just prints money from nowhere. ZEUS Yeah that happened in prenazi germany but not in the good ole US of A. ATHENA If the economy is sustained with currency of gold how would there be inflation if there were not a gold mine extracting gold. ATHENA There would be deflation considering that the population would increase in size and the currency would not. ZEUS So what. ATHENA Let me get there in the site, here it is, "If inflation/money supply increase were not caused by printing money from nowhere then where would that money come from if we had a gold based economy if it were not coming from a goldmine." ZEUS Paper would come from trees. ATHENA And there are a lot of trees. ZEUS Oh my god how come nobody knows about this. asdf (Conspiracy Theory 3) ATHENA Because they see interest correlate to inflation and they think one causes the other when really interest only causes inflation because the Jewlluminati has to pay off banks when people go bankrupt from too high interest rates. ZEUS "The Jewlluminati are the one's printing the money, and the newspapers which don't report it." ATHENA What a beautiful line. ZEUS What are the Jewlluminati. ATHENA They are the Illuminati from the bloodlines all the way back to those (shakes hands) bible people. ZEUS So Jews really do rule the world. That's why Israel got away with bombing and attacking practically everybody in the Middle East. ATHENA No that is what their enemies who now control the West wanted to prevent the invasions of Middle Eastern Countries by the United States. The United States used to be controlled by the East and wanted to end the nuclear war before it reached space. ZEUS That's kinda convoluted but go on with the history. ATHENA The website says that they infiltrated ancient Rome to sway the councils of Nicea to pass a stepping stone law banning the committing of usary by clergy. (Conspiracy Theory 3) ATHENA (CONT'D) Then later they got a ban on usury except for the Jews. ZEUS Then they dominated the stock market with their money. ATHENA They were insider traders with enough money to insure the entire stock market. ZEUS But it is still an evil conspiracy. ATHENA It is benevolent because by gaining a dominant position over the world the Jewlluminaiti were able to force all opposing rouge nuclear terrorist groups into a singular faction that can be dealt with by the Mutually Assured Destruction Treaty. ZEUS What's the Mutually Assured Destruction Treaty? ATHENA The MAD treaty basically entails that a singular nuclear detonation shall initiate a full scale retaliation which both sides were prepared to deal. ZEUS That's insane. ATHENA No its MAD and it has protected the world from being systematically annihilated city by city. ZEUS Well I guess it worked that counts for something. ATHENA That counts for everything. .. .. (Conspiracy Theory 3) ZEUS So does it say why the East is a total mind control state. ATHENA Yeah basically they have Fullll Neurological Connectivity Virtual Reality Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games. VNCVR MORPGEs. And when you have that your brain is in jeopardy if a clan hacks your multiplayer online game they torture you till you spread the hack everywhere. ZEUS That is what Rebecca told me, but after what we've learned I am starting to believe it. So I guess that protecting the FNCVRs justifies mind controlling everybody. ATHENA Just regular mind scans and random people being taken over for usually less than a few minutes in random drills to prevent hacking. The East doesn't use the mind control except for an occasional reality TV show or therapeutically to heal people that have lost control and gone insane. ZEUS So does it say why Eastern prisoners aren't allowed in our society. ATHENA Yes the West is doing mind control experiments on how to turn them into loyal zealots with the utterance of a single cue. ZEUS What!? It must be because they would infect us. ATHENA Yeah knowledge of truth; that the mind control is just the way to make better video games. (Conspiracy Theory 3) ZEUS Wee'vve,, been fighting a war,, just to keep us from playing awesome 6 senses video games. ATHENA Oh my god its so horrible. ZEUS Ok I have a head ache I don't think I am going to be able to learn anything more today. Enough of free world alliance dot b i z bullshit. ATHENA Well if you don't want to learn anything tonight I guess I won't let you (feels up her left tits with her right hand and her pussy with her left) learn any anatomy. ZEUS I think I know enough about anatomy to know that there is always more to learn about. ATHENA I want you to learn me. ZEUS Are you sure your ready. ATHENA There is no point in waiting the pain is never going to go away. ZEUS Neither has mine. ATHENA I just have to numb it by fucking you. INT. BEDROOM Sex Scene. A COLONY UNDER EXTREME FIRE All of the militia later on in the mission have night vision goggles, because of the dark. Zeus still lays on the Bed, after the sex, looking up, MALE COMPUTER Zeus's tired face flashes in between his tired 1 on the bed and 1 in a STEX. MALE COMPUTER ..4..3..2..1- CUT TO: INT. ZEUS'S POD The nose of Zeus's pod as it smashes through the diamond window. The nose opens up to seal the hole as Zeus flies out into the darkening colony. EXT. SUBURBIA IN TYPE 4 COLONY AND INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER It is now night. FEMALE COMPUTER Following automatic parabolic trajectory. Zeus's rockets guide him on a -X^(2/3) trajectory. Zeus are in a perfect but distant diamond formation with the rest of his quad. Zeus hits the ground in the trademark commando shoulder roll right after a few short rocket bursts decrease Zeus's velocity. Zeus start out running. The quad commander, Athena, guides Zeus's quad's movement. SKY COMMANDER We are getting off to a clean start. As in all of these space missions Zeus's quad and 3 other quads, 16 men in total storm the command center and press the buttons to initiates rockets to move the colony back into Western hands. (A Colony Under Extreme Fire) Zeus's quad walks out side to begin the initial sweep as everybody awaits the regulars to dock. SKY COMMANDER Quad 1, Quad 1, the mayor has a few guards who are yet unaccounted for, y'all need to secure that position to prevent them from ever gathering from that foothold. Athena will guide you. ATHENA Ok baby rotate 130 degrees right, run towards 5th street now. ZEUS Moving. ATHENA Sharp left! Third house on the left. ATHENA The one with the beamer in front. ATHENA That's right, Split 2 and 4 go along the road. Zeus and 3, 90 degrees left now! Go left of that tree, jump the fence, go along the patio, up the stairs, grenade the sliding glass, its carbon nanotube reinforced diamond. Zeus throws the grenades. Boom. ZEUS Where are they? ATHENA The other side of the house, firing at 2 and 4, INT. MAYOR'S HOUSE IN TYPE 4 COLONY AND INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER ATHENA Move in now, hallway at the left... right at bend then immediate left, there will be dual stair cases they should be just visible from the circular thing. Shoot them from there. They are sitting up against the wall reloading. Zeus shoots them Zeus jumps the banister. (A Colony Under Extreme Fire) ZEUS (UNIVERSAL RADIO) Area clear All units proceed in entering the building I want the mayor alive, I have an idea. Zeus and 3 hear a noise and run to it. The mayor is talking on his phone to the unofficial militia in the colony. Zeus grabs him and throw him on the ground in the entrance room in-between the guards. ZEUS Look at what this pitiful resistance is, suicide. You pathetic militia are no match for us well trained, well organized, well equipped commandos. MAYOR (WITH A FRENCH ACCENT) Dying's better than becoming a dirty Westerner. ZEUS I showered two hours ago I think you are the one who is dirty. MAYOR .. ZEUS I want you to call on your little phone a universal message to put down their weapons and go back to their homes. MAYOR Hell NO YOU BASTARD! Zeus shifts his gun around and smashes the mayor in the head with the shoulder rest part of the gun. The mayor falls onto the ground sideways. ZEUS Give him the phone. Hi Zeus and 3. What's up ZEUS Check the house see if there are any more sleeper militia here. (A Colony Under Extreme Fire) Will do sir. MAYOR Can I speak to the commander of this operation. ZEUS Why yes you can,, 4. walks in front of the mayor, and kneels on his right knee, while his left fist holds himself off the ground his right arm rests on his left knee. 4's head although not perfectly upwards is down slightly. A holographic projection generated from his upper back is projected so that the commander is portrayed standing on 4's head. MAYOR By what right do you have to force me to command my forces to surrender. SKY COMMANDER We have no right, but if you don't my men will kill you where you .. kneel. MAYOR I am a government official, protected by the Geneva Convention of 1946. SKY COMMANDER Shut the fuck up- says the commander as he turns 90 degrees to almost face Zeus. SKY COMMANDER If he does not comply 3, shoot him in the head. The mayor looks enraged. SKY COMMANDER I think that solves that issue- The Sky Command ends the communication. A couple of seconds later 4 gets up. hands him the phone. The mayor looks around at Zeus and starts dialing. (A Colony Under Extreme Fire) MAYOR Yes, Janet, can you get me on a universal colony wide sound, please. MAYOR Yes use the loudspeakers along with everything else. MAYOR How long? MAYOR Alright. ZEUS How long? MAYOR About a minute or two. ZEUS Ok, If you don't tell them to surrender 3 here will do exactly what my commander ordered. A few seconds of silence pass before you hear women screaming. SHUT UP BITCH! ZEUS It appears we just found your wife,,, and your daughter. MAYOR YOU MOTHER FUCKERS!!! Zeus looks away, his head trails to the top of the staircase where 2, and 4 are dragging his wife and daughter, respectively. ZEUS Bring them down here will ya. MAYOR Alright I'll say what you want me too. MAYOR I'm on in 10..9..8..7 ZEUS He goes on air to tell them to surrender. (A Colony Under Extreme Fire) MAYOR ..6..5..4..3.. .. .. MAYOR This is your mayor speaking. you can hear all around- MAYOR I am here with a gun to my head. Just after he says that, 3, who is the closest to the mayor, eyes widen as he aims his assault riffle to the Mayor's head. Zeus smiles. MAYOR I am in my house they have 8 men here, do not surrender, try to take this mansion and- Before he finishes 3 pulls the trigger. Zeus runs over and picks up the phone- ZEUS THAT WAS THE NOISE OF YOUR MAYOR's BRAINS BEING SPLATTERED Over his clean marble floor. IF you continue to resist you shall see similar fates. We are 80 strong and in 10 minutes we will be 240 strong, resistance is futile- Zeus presses the end button on the phone and slips it into his pocket. Just then as the camera is facing Zeus's front and the wife, she runs and jumps for the guards riffle. 1, with his riffle loosely held in his left hand drops it while his right hand reaches for his pistol, he pulls it out and aims with both hands just as 2 fires fully automatic into her. The daughter runs to the guard, 3 throws up his pistol, catches it by the barrel, and throws it with 1 hand at her head. She falls over sideways. 4 runs over to her and while she is laying on her stomach on the ground, puts both hands under her arms, and then grabs her right arm with his left, keeping both her arms up to his torso and keeping his right arm free to hold the riffle. Commander what do we do now? (A Colony Under Extreme Fire) SKY COMMANDER Hold tight for a second. A few seconds later. ATHENA Quad 1 leave the house now through the back door, RUN! EXT. SUBURBIA IN TYPE 4 COLONY AND INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER Once Zeus gets to the patio. ATHENA JUMP THE FENCE NOW. Get to the road. leaves the daughter there to cry on the grass. ATHENA Take a right at 6th. SKY COMMANDER The East is preparing to destroy the colony to keep us from finding something inside inside. ZEUS When does the colony go boom? ATHENA About 5 minutes. ZEUS Holy shit- Zeus starts to take out his cell phone. Zeus dials the- ZEUS (SPEAKER) Operator can you get me on universal com please. OPERATOR Why you are are our mortal enemies. ZEUS (SPEAKER) The colony is going to be destroyed in the next 5 minutes I need to inform the general population. OPERATOR Uhhhh, ok. 5..4..3..2.. .. (A Colony Under Extreme Fire) ZEUS (SPEAKER) Hello this is Zeus speaking the East is preparing as we speak to fire upon this colony to destroy it in order to protect a dirty little secret. In 5 minutes no air will be left. ZEUS (SPEAKER) Full and complete evacuation of all inhabitants shall proceed unhindered by Western forces, but please do not combat us, we are now working together to save as many lives as possible, please militia put down your weapons and you will not be shot. ZEUS (SPEAKER) You may enter our military transports, if your pods are full, but only as directed by a commando. Let's all work together to make this work as smoothly as possible, and do not attempt to take any possessions, this includes space commandos also. Good luck. Zeus turns off his cell phone and puts it away by pressing 1. By this time Zeus is about 1/3 of the way to the secret laboratory. Zeus is following his quad members, who are being ordered directly by Athena. ZEUS Ok Athena I am done talking. ATHENA Good take the next left. ZEUS H street? ATHENA Yeah. As they turn the corner they see 4 militia. 4 throws a grenade in the center of the circle. ZEUS (SPEAKER) NOBODY MOVE, EVERYBODY DROP YOUR WEAPONS, YOU WON'T BE HARMED. They keep on running. (A Colony Under Extreme Fire) As they approach one of the 4 fires at 4, he is hit in the knee and twice in the lower right torso. 4 presses the button on the remote grenade, the militia are blown away by shrapnel, but a couple can still fire, the remains of the quad kill them. On Zeus's HUD come up a message about "cell destruction induced comprehensive software failure" for 4. ZEUS KEEP GOING, destruction time is approaching, he can take care of himself. slows down to care for 4 ZEUS KEEP GOING HE'LL be fine, that's a fucking order. looks back and starts running. is on the ground curled up in pain. (SCREAMING IN PAIN) Computer Block sensory neurons at the neck! reaches behind his back. Show his hand feel his injuries. 4 takes off his helmet and breaths hard on one leg and two arms for a few seconds then screams- FFFUUUUUUUCCCCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! begins to shed his exoskeleton manually. He breaks and shakes a green glow stick, He takes out his hot knife and begins to saw his leg off at the joint, he can cut through bone but has to saw at it a little bit. Needless to say he is screaming in pain. When he is done he puts a super glue coated plastic sheet over his leg to eliminate the bleeding. picks up his pistol and knife and stores them in his respective holsters on his shroud. He proceeds to crawl on 3 appendages up the road. The daughter Lauren appears at the intersection carrying one of the guards assault riffles. LAUREN! She doesn't respond she walks closer putting the riffle to her shoulder. (A Colony Under Extreme Fire) Lauren, please don't hurt me, I just need your help, my suit went dead, and My leg is over there. Oh please don't kill me. Lauren looks surprised, at his pleading. LAUREN Is there a way you can help me out of here. Yes we can both leave through the commando transport. I just need your help. LAUREN How can I trust you won't have me killed by the men. Look getting out of here alive is what I want most and if you don't carry me to the transport then you will die anyways. You have no reason not to trust me. Lauren looks completely disgusted, she aims the riffle at him, then realizes she does not know where to go. She is still crying, wiping away the tears. LAUREN Whatever I'll trust you. Lauren walks up to him and helps him up, he cringes in pain, LAUREN Where to? The nearest window. LAUREN Right that is that way. She says as she helps him to hop in the direction of the nearest window. CUT TO: INT. HALLWAYS BEFORE LABORATORY AND INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER Unit 7 is approaching the laboratory. (A Colony Under Extreme Fire) ZEUS get plastic on that door double time. runs up and puts 4 globs and attaches auto leads. runs back and presses the button still well within blast range. does a shoulder roll to break the kinetic energy of the blast and turns 180 and stays ahead of Zeus and 2. 3 enters then 2 then Zeus. Elite guards- Just as 3 is made holy. 2 manages to throw a couple of grenades down the hallway, but he is shot in the heart. He flat-lines on the unit status, 3 shortly flatlines and 4 is still no signal. Zeus puts away his riffle, as Athena distressed by the situation says- ATHENA Down the hall, down the hall Zeus. throws up two grenades to Zeus before he passes away. Zeus throw 2 grenades. His right hand throws to the left and left hand throws to the right. He uncrosses his arms as he presses detonate. He pulls out 2 more and does the same with the next set of doorways. Then he does a backwards flip to fling his assault riffle foreword. INT. LABORATORY IN TYPE 4 COLONY Athena directs Zeus though the lab killing a variety of guards. Athena guides Zeus to one room, with thousands of centrifuges and stuff like that. You see a large cylindrical canister labeled "Plutonium". ZEUS They are producing nukes. Zeus stand transfixed in Awe. Awe music is played and Athena's voice is made so quiet it is almost inaudible. Zeus takes off his helmet and falls weakly to his knees, he looks down slightly, as his arms rest against his torso. ZEUS (WHISPER) They are producing nukes. (A Colony Under Extreme Fire) Then in an instant a huge shell pierces though the other layer of the colony and crashes through the lab just in front of where Zeus is kneeling, all you hear is the sound of sucking until he is sucked into space. Zeus is grasping for breath he looks over at his helmet, in his left hand and puts it on. The suit is quickly repressurized. ZEUS (HOARSELY) Request pickup its quad 1, 1, Zeus. CUT TO: blood in grasss. 4 is still being helped by Lauren over the last few meters to the transport. They look back at the hole in the colony at that last container. They get to the edge of the transport- LAUREN Get in. You first. pushes her in still sort of hanging onto her, there are a mess of civilians in the pod. A container hits near by and the air around them starts to be sucked out. RANDOM STEX Hey close the pod we are losing pressure. Get in. The pilot realizing the problem begins to close the pod, a civilian male comes running as the doors close, he dives through the gap and gets stuck he pushes himself in as the doors near closing, he only gets most of his torso through, before the door closes. His lower body is crushed and severed quite quickly. FEMALE COMPUTER SEALED. HALFLING AAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!! INT. ESCAPE POD FROM TYPE 4 COLONY The pilot ejects the pod. The guy is still stuck in the ceiling by the flesh of his lower torso when the pod is at 0 gees. He has been brutally disemboweled and blood tricked down before, 0 gee was achieved, when blood came out in perfect spheres. CUT TO: (A Colony Under Extreme Fire) SPC. JUST OUTSIDE THE POD FROM TYPE 4 COLONY Zeus uses rockets to grab onto the pod. CUT TO: When it arrives Zeus dives away from the pod to the membrane, they open it for him before he hits it. Zeus glides right into the colony, and to where the pod arrived, anticipating the injured, and greeting the weary. EXT. LOW GEE PORTION OF ZEUS'S COLONY The pod opens, and people jump out, the half guy is thrown, and is caught by somebody who proceeds in taking him to the infirmary. A shitload of STEX guards take pissed of Easterners as prisoners. CUT TO: MORNING AFTER INT. ZEUS'S LIVING ROOM ATHENA I can't believe that the East is producing tons of nukes. ZEUS There is a reason why the best virtual reality game out is all about completely obliterating the enemies territory. ATHENA And just as long as you have a small pocket of colonies you win. ZEUS When the East is on the verge of losing they just nuked the battlefield. Will they do that again except in civilian space. ATHENA Let's hope not. ZEUS From what I know about nuclear wars if 1 side hordes them the other side always hordes even more. ATHENA Then the nukes quantities just spirals out of control. ZEUS I hope real life isn't like the game. ATHENA I think we have to conclude that it is. Zeus's cell phone beeps a musical combat theme element. Zeus picks up his cell phone and puts it up to his ear. PERSON ON PHONE (NOT HEARD) You have another moderate assignment. (Morning after) ZEUS What not another mission, I have shore leave. PERSON ON PHONE (NOT HEARD) Titan wants you in the briefing room in an hour. ZEUS Fine we'll be there in an hour. Zeus closes his cell phone ATHENA Fuck I can't believe this is happening. ZEUS THOSE BASTARDS CUT MY Shore leave short. They promised to double shore leave after this one though. ATHENA Jesus why you. ZEUS Specialized skills, I am going to be a BiMAV lance commander. ATHENA Finally you'll be behind some thick armor. ZEUS After reading the Eastern propaganda I don't want to fight. ATHENA But they'll torture you. ZEUS That's why I am going to do it. ATHENA What is risk factor. ZEUS Moderate. ATHENA Another moderate, you should protest. ZEUS There is no point they'll just give it to me anyways. (Morning after) ATHENA I have a bad feeling about this one. I feel like you won't make it back, like I won't see you again. ZEUS Don't worry, I'm sure it won't be too dangerous, they wouldn't throw away their military asset. Athena hugs him. ATHENA Promise me you will live through this one, promise you will come back to me. Zeus french kisses her. ZEUS I will baby, I won't get melted. FADE TO: KNIGHT OF DESTRUCTION SPC. OUTSIDE DISK COLONY You are looking at Disk Colony from afar. ZOOM INTO: INT. DOLPHIN TRANSPORT Zeus's face. The transport is very dark. There is no music. The men and women clothed only in thin black polyester shirts and pants, are all sitting down. All are barefoot. They are wearing special forces night vision goggles. Night vision googles are very thin and also cover ear, providing audio input. They are wearing a parachute. To the right side of the backpack is a silenced chemical pistol with a scope, and wire cutters. On the other side is extra ammo and a small grenade. Also wearing slim strap on wings, on their arms. INT. 0.1 GEE NEAR SPACE PORT IN TYPE 5 COLONY A group of innocent looking civilians swing themselves out of the elevator. LEADER Hey let's get some wings. The leader walks up to the replicator and puts a disk into it. A few silenced M-16s and other stuff are synthesized. Upgraded M-16, have clips taped on for easy access to the other 40 bullets. REPLICATOR Wings complete. The leader throws the riffles, grenades, and pistols to his friends. Leader looks at his watch. The group walks into the enclosed waiting area, before the security screening detectors. INT. SECURITY STATION IN TYPE 5 COLONY Door to the waiting room opens. Leader runs in guns down the guy walking out the door with a triple shot. Another guard is sitting at a console. He looks over in sheer surprise. He is killed with 3 bullets shot in a single predefined burst. Leader and two others put their riffles down and sit down at the console. (Knight of Destruction) Leader presses a button. LEADER Black Stallion you may proceed into the colony. Presses a couple buttons. LEADER Softening emergency membrane. INT. DOLPHIN FLYING IN TYPE 5 COLONY PILOT Affirmative leader, decelerating for impact. Lock and load people 3 minutes 24 seconds until impact. CUT TO: Transport slowly breaks through the thick membrane. Hear only what he hears. Still no music. GOOGLES GET UP. Everybody else also gets up. The back door to the dolphin opens. The last two people jump followed by 6 others. A few seconds later. GOOGLES JUMP. The four people in front of Zeus jump, Zeus and the people behind and to the side of him run off into the cool, light, gravity-less air. AIR. ABOVE TYPE 5 COLONY GOOGLES FLY HERE ------------------> Points on the netting, where Zeus is to land. Everybody flies in different directions. Lands lightly on netting feet first. Zeus falls till he grabs onto the netting and holds until the oscillations stop. Zeus takes out his wire cutters, and pulls the cutters extending the black wire that comes from the backpack. Zeus turns a knob on the wire cutters to 9, representing the hottest level. Zeus cuts away at the netting, one by one. (Knight of Destruction) Finally Zeus is able to push away a small hole in the netting. Zeus presses his naked right hand to the googles. ZEUS Ready. The googles list all of the commandos, green representing ready, dark teal representing not ready. Slowly but surely all the names and positions go to green. Names disappear. BLACK STALLION All, units ready, speak now if not. BLACK STALLION Push in 3..2..1..0 At 0, Zeus slides through the hole and holds on with his hands on the other side, looking at the ground. At 0 Zeus pushes away into free fall. You can see lots of lights and stuff on the ground. GOOGLES Approaching target, maintain unit vector. The googles highlights the Heavy BiMAV in a very bright yellow. It gets closer and closer, as the gravity gets stronger and stronger, as the acceleration gets faster and faster, as his speed gets higher and higher. GOOGLES Release parachute. Zeus pulls the red chord. The black parachute releases. Handles at Zeus's soldiers. Zeus takes off the wings, and grabs onto the handles, and glides in a circle to land onto the BiMAV head. Zeus twists both handles at the same time. Look up to reveal the two flaps successfully unravel, slowing him down even more. Land relatively softly onto the BiMAV, to a crouch. EXT. TYPE COLONY 5 AND INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER Parachute falls on top of him. Zeus twists the thing on his chest, to release the empty back pack. Zeus throws it away. The sun comes out making the colony day. You can barely see because Zeus's eyes are adjusted for the dark. Googles adjust to dark vision. GOOGLES Press button. (Knight of Destruction) Zeus presses the yellow outline. Cockpit opens. GOOGLES Throw me away. Zeus puts it on a level part of the deck, and slides into the membrane in the BiMAV. The hatch closes as the cockpit lights up. BIMAV Enter BiMAV activation code: Zeus waves his hand over the display. ZEUS Initiate auto-start up, root/083. Display briefly shows all system checks, and weapons. BIMAV All systems online. All weapons armed. You see what the BiMAV does. Prelude to music. Zeus Gets up instantly. Music begins. Remix for movie of Korn - Lets Get This Party Started.mp3 SKY COMMANDER Sky Net online. MUSIC Let's get this party started! Zeus has walked forward, and flipped his arms to turn his view around. Yellow outlined BiMAVs turned Red, as "Let's" was said. Above them flashed, "Destroy Unoccupied BiMAVs". Zeus proceeded to destroy the right most BiMAV. Another green BiMAV comes into view of the peripheral as it begins to destroy the last of the four, previously dormant BiMAVs. QUAD COMMANDER Empty BiMAVs sufficiently decimated, turn around and charge central defense structure. ZEUS Affirmative. (Knight of Destruction) ATHENA (LOUD SPEAKER) BiMAV approaching, move out of the way or get trampled. Zeus flips around and begins running up the road to the large wide cylinder, where the vast security and command station is located. A big gun is rapidly rotating and firing gun is shooting up at the BiMAVs on the other side of the colony. The auto-piloted dolphin rams into it destroying it. SKY COMMANDER Dolphin shuttle has successfully destroyed primary internal defense cannon. Identifying secondary defense cannons. Small red outlines appear in the distance. SKY COMMANDER (VO) All units FIRE! Zeus aims. ZEUS Activate full physics, parabolic compensation. A gray cross-hair appears below the neon green crosshairs. Zeus aims with the gray crosshairs and fires, still moving at full speed. Zeus is knocked onto the ground, facing the right. ZEUS GET OFF THE ROAD, CANNONS OUT RANGE US! Zeus's BiMAV shows damage report, serious damage to left shoulder area, right arm, partially operational. Quadmate 1 runs off the road crouching behind a building. Zeus rolls out into cover behind another building. A shell lands just where Zeus rolled from. Zeus looks over at Quadmate 1. He is sticking his arms above the building, and shooting from the view from his arms. A shell knocks into that building but does not penetrate. Zeus does the same, firing from his good arm, the other arm is not fully operational and cannot be lifted at that level. Show black fluid on heads up display flow into the shoulder beginning to patch up damaged components. The turret facing them is destroyed. (Knight of Destruction) QUAD COMMANDER (VO) Good job team, let's take out the other two that can reach you then blitz their position. ZEUS Affirmative. QUADMATE 1 Affirm. A shell breaks through the building, passing right by Zeus's left leg. BIMAV Partial movement of right arm restored. Repair fluid was still attempting to regain full movement control. QUAD COMMANDER Good job, turrets destroyed. Full speed rush! Zeus and the other BiMAV run around a corner turning themselves to run up towards the cylinder looming, a bit up latitude (longitude determines which circle on the cylinder it is at) of their position. QUAD COMMANDER (SHOW HIS INTERFACE) Recon data streaming in on tertiary targets. A few light vehicle, nothing you can't handle. QUAD COMMANDER (SHOW HIS INTERFACE) Forget that! They got 2 full Quads of medium BiMAVs that elude our intel. Scattered sightings of Eastern Trionyx class fully mobile artillery. ZEUS FUCK! How did we let them through. Artillery bombardment begins. SQUAD COMMANDER (VO) I don't know, but I know how to take them out. All units break formation, we are going to perform a multi-Quad pincher movement. Show unit 5 and 6 in combat during below ordeal. (Knight of Destruction) SQUAD COMMANDER (SHOW HIS INTERFACE) Units 5 and 6 are already in tight engagements with one of the enemy Quads. All Units sprint at full speeds to the engagements. Show squad break off to designated locations. SQUAD COMMANDER (VO) break off to the right. Zeus there is a Trionyx on 15th and Walnut, proceed to destroy it. 3 and 4 you are going to form the anvil for 7 and 8 to press them into, somewhere around Elm an 12th. I will keep you informed personally. The BiMAV shows the street to turn at, it is coming up fast. ZEUS Balance side slide! Zeus jumps and turns 90 degrees to face to the right, leaning to the right. The legs are somewhat frictionless to slide in perfectly straight, in an almost completely crouched position. The Trionyx mobile artillery is a lot like the paladin artillery of today. It does not need to attach itself to the ground, it can shoot while it is moving. It has 2 small short range anti-personnel and light vehicle guns to the side of the giant long range artillery cannon. The two small guns track on Zeus and fire at almost the same time that he does. Zeus blows the shit out of the Trionyx. The main turret didn't even close to getting down to the right angle. ZEUS Artillery destroyed. QUAD COMMANDER Good proceed at full speed as planned you are just a few blocks away from the battle, come into it at point blank at White Pine St. ZEUS I see it. How is the battle going? Show 5 and 6 dead during below dialogue. (Knight of Destruction) QUAD COMMANDER (SHOW HIS INTERFACE) Not so good, we lost 5 and 6, but you should turn the tides. ZEUS Good I always like to go into battle guns blazing. QUAD COMMANDER Well, here is your chance. BIMAV Full left arm mobility restored. 80 % durability. ZEUS BiMAV need balance for very tight turn. Zeus makes the turn. enemy BiMAVs are back to back in a long range fire fight, with the units pinching in on them. 2 allied BiMAV carcasses lay on the ground, along with a porcupine. ZEUS FIRE FULL MISSILE BARRAGE! Zeus immediately, and viciously opens fire on both of them at the same time. Zeus blows one of their legs off, the other is less unlucky. ZEUS Assisted front flip. The enemy BiMAVs turn to shoot at Zeus as he runs into the intersection. Zeus rolls into a front flip to lower his hittable profile and so that critical systems would not be hittable. The instant Zeus flattens out of the low front flip he begins firing back at the BiMAVs, and the Trionyx. The lucky BiMAV that Zeus was shooting at turns and begins pounding Zeus hitting his right leg. BIMAV Repairing right leg. Two huge synchronous shells knock the lucky enemy BiMAV onto his side, Teetering on its left foot to prevent falling to the side. One shell knocks into its left leg, the other rams into his right arm, almost severing it. The BiMAV falls over. (Knight of Destruction) ZEUS Artillery cannon, fire, 75% of critical colony shell break through. Says Zeus as he twists his arm out of the interface to target the struggling BiMAV. Show huge red and orange checkered outline over the crippled BiMAV. Crosshairs move over it. Zeus fires killing the lucky BiMAV. The unlucky damaged BiMAV on the ground gets hit hard and utterly destroyed by the artillery, just as Zeus is walking around it. Zeus begins walking back at a terminator pace(after the terminator survived the gas tank explosion). SQUAD COMMANDER (VO) Good work, we worked that like a team. Mop up here and proceed to the Fortress. SKY COMMANDER (VO) We got this Mech up rising for the most part under control, tertiary targets are negligible, proceed to the cylinder, except for unit 4, you are to guard the space port in .1 gee. Zeus finishes helping out in making sure all of the vehicles are fully dead by limping a couple blocks, then leads a square formation of a Quad down main street to the dilapidated and cratered security facility. Zeus looks up in the sky as two dolphin transports glide down above the facility, where they hover. ZEUS Permission to dismount and mobilize into a Eastern STEX suit. QUAD COMMANDER (VO) Permission granted. ZEUS BiMAV surround me in STEX. The interface closes, Zeus is able to see himself. BIMAV Remake shroud? (Knight of Destruction) ZEUS Yes. BIMAV What suit configuration. ZEUS Medium, standard urban payload, read peripheral configuration from personal memory. BIMAV Error, incomplete control word database. ZEUS Fill in with standard template in database. BIMAV Shroud complete, constructing STEX. Zeus looks down at his bright white shroud. Zeus looks up at the dolphins, the last of the STEX have jumped off onto the roof, and the dolphins are going back to zero gee. The STEX continues to materialize around Zeus. BIMAV Surrounding completed, opening hatch, you may now proceed. Zeus hears the suit as it pressurizes itself to seal in air. Zeus pushes off the hand rails and jumps out of the BiMAV, into a shoulder roll, two stories below. ZEUS I should have made it crouch. Hey Quad assistant, am I still on the battle network. ATHENA (VO) Yeah I see you loud and clear, but your STEX still has eastern markings. ZEUS Make sure they don't shoot at me alright. (Knight of Destruction) ATHENA (VO) Yeah will do, I am looking for a safe entrance now. Up. The commando team just cut off all power, any entrance will be safe. Here is a nice thin door to blow. Zeus runs over and plants explosives around the door. Then detonates it. ZEUS Launch a couple of recons will ya. ATHENA (VO) Yeah sorry. The two probes go into the facility. SKY COMMANDER (VO) Zeus their Sky Command Center is closest to you. It is currently in use to manage the resistance, go there and disable the entire room. ZEUS Such an important task for just one man. SKY COMMANDER (VO) Look up. Zeus looks up and sees 3 Western STEX rappelling down the side of the building. ZEUS Well I'll be damned. Zeus runs to the door. INT. HALLWAYS BEFORE EASTERN SKY COMMAND CENTER IN TYPE 5 COLONY They fall the last few meters to a crouch, just a few meters away from. ZEUS Quad follow my lead. We run in fast and hit them hard. Zeus runs in front, guns a few armed but not STEXed military personnel, the quad encounters only a couple of STEX as they are guided to the enemy Sky Command Center. (Knight of Destruction) Zeus gets to the Sky Command Center door. The other 3 form a perimeter around him. Zeus presses the button to open it. The small console displays "lock down" Zeus puts a line of C-7 around the door. Zeus detonates it. Zeus walks in crouching below the partially blown off top of the door. INT. EASTERN COMMAND CENTER IN TYPE 5 COLONY Zeus shoots up into the air. ZEUS STEX, Loud speaker. Loud speaker shows up on the STEX console. ZEUS Turn the power off I am shutting this room down. Zeus looks up at the main room defense gun currently dormant since the loss of power. ZEUS I SAID TURN THE FUCKING POWER OFF! Zeus looks up at the sky commander. Zeus aims at his head. The sky commander is still orchestrating the battle. Zeus pulls the trigger. ZEUS Since we cut of you evacuation rail launchers I WILL MAKE IT SIMPLE. YOU HAVE 5 SECONDS TO LAY FLAT ON THE GROUND OR WE KILL YOU. 5,, 4,, 2,, 1,,, 0. Most of the people have laid down. Zeus sees an 3 of a quad of assistants that is still commanding. Zeus sprays horizontally killing them all. The rest of the unit begins to open fire sporadically killing all those non-compliant. Most of the commanders and assistants got the message and fell to the ground. Zeus begins to climb up the commander's pedestal. Zeus throws the old commander off. ZEUS Open a channel to radio frequency megahertz, standard, and unencoded. (Knight of Destruction) EASTERN CONSOLE beep ZEUS This is secondary sky commander Zeus, relaying mission information. SKY COMMANDER (VO) We're ready bring it on. ZEUS Computer send full mission information via the console. EASTERN CONSOLE Beep. CUT TO: LAST AFFIRMATION OF LOVE. EXT. LOW GEE OPEN SPACE PORT ATHENA Oh Zeus I am so glad you made out of there alive. ZEUS So am I my perfect spacie girl. ATHENA If this war is over and we are both alive I want to marry you. ZEUS I thought I was the one who was supposed to propose. ATHENA Oh that old tradition is meaningless after replicators were developed. I just want to choose a ring on the replicator. ZEUS Don't you want a diamond found in the ground. ATHENA No I want a diamond to be perfectly clear and pristine just like replicators make them. ZEUS But it is the flaws that define love. ATHENA You are without flaws Zeus, it is the war that corrupts you and when that is over you will be as clear as the diamond on my finger. ZEUS But I am not pure at all even before the war and neither were you. (Last affirmation of love.) ATHENA Shhh.. just let me pick out my pure clear white diamond because I want the symbol of our love to be 100 percent pure. ZEUS I have a secret to tell you. Would you love me no matter what I say. ATHENA Yes (jump up and giggle) I want to hear your secret. Yes I will I promise you no matter what you say I won't stop loving you but (waves her index finger pointed hand up and down) I may judge you. ZEUS Fair enough. I (waves hand then points to his chest) personally was the one who flew the ship into the Western Elevator. ATHENA You did what!!? (Hits Zeus hard in the heart) I'll never love you again. ZEUS I thought you said no matter what I said you would still love me. Athena starts walking away. ATHENA Not that. ZEUS But I thought it was just a simulation. Athena looks over at Zeus and starts walking backwards. ATHENA Did you really not know. (Last affirmation of love.) ZEUS Really I just thought there was fiber optics on the window or something. Athena starts walking back over. ATHENA Did you really not know. ZEUS Yes until I got out of the pod in Africa then it became real. ATHENA Ok well if that is true I'll still marry you. Athena jumps into Zeus's arms. ZEUS I'll love you forever. ATHENA So will I so will I. They make out as camera swings around to the profile of their heads and upper torsos at which point the camera can see the window above their heads. FLY CAMERA OUT OF WINDOW ON THIS COLONY, ACROSS SPACE AND TIME TO: THE FINAL MISSION Camera goes through window exterior window and on top of building, where Zeus is commanding his infantry lance. EXT. SUBURBIA IN TYPE 6 COLONY quads are on the building with Zeus, 2 others are on neighboring buildings. ZEUS Quad D drop from roof and check the nearest substation, this one should be open. QUAD LEADER D (VO) Yes dropping. ZEUS Get low, sweep out for snipage. Zeus lays down near the corner of the building looking through the scope of his sniper riffle at Quad D checking the security station. QUAD LEADER D (VO FROM AFAR) (shrugs) It's locked and barricaded, over a meter thick, just like last time. ZEUS Ok thanks, I will com with command. ZEUS Sky commander, we are not sure what is happening around here, things seem fishy. INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER SKY COMMANDER Do you think you can handle it. EXT. ROOF TOP IN TYPE 6 COLONY ZEUS I can't even see what I need to handle. Recommend mechanized reinforcements. (The Final Mission) INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER SKY COMMANDER Your colony has just entered Western Space, we've got naval superiority. BiMAV reinforcements will arrive in just over 5 minutes. EXT. ROOF TOP IN TYPE 6 COLONY ZEUS Ok, that's good to know. I'll be watching to see if they pull anything out of their sleeves. Over and out. QUAD LEADER D (VO FROM AFAR) SHIT!!!!!!! A small BiMAV walks out of a building right near the substation. Enemy STEX come out of locked substation (but we don't see this.) All we see is the quad die almost instantly from shots coming both from the BiMAV and the subway. ZEUS LIGHT BiMAV. QUAD B and C building hop to encircle and destroy BiMAV. Zeus sees about 8 enemy STEX run over the corpses of Quad D. ZEUS WAIT ENEMY STEX. You see on the battle field interface, about 16 other soldiers EKGs, changing color, mostly to red, then black. ZEUS IT'S a TRAP. The WHOLE MISSION's a TRAP. INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER Sky commander is viewing a colony map with allied and enemy units on it. ATHENA (SHOW HER LEFT HAND FISTED DOWN AND FORWARD OF HER CHIN REVEALING HER ENGAGEMENT RING) Hmmmm. ATHENA The colony's park has no substations and seems to be secure, form a strong point there. (The Final Mission) INT. SUBSTATION IN TYPE 3 COLONY ZEUS Fall back to substation Alpha 9er. Quad stands up firing at eight enemy STEX and jump down from the buildings. Quad reassembles into a 'V' formation, with Zeus at the front. Zeus leads them down the stairs to the substation. ZEUS Train I need a train! SPECILIST 1 (VO) One is already on it's way. Zeus looks intensely at nothing. The quad has their guns in relaxed positions either propped up on shoulder or muzzle resting on the marbled floor. As train arrives- Shooting begins, everybody aims at that train. ATHENA FIRE WHILE RETREATING. Everybody backs out of substation, still firing at the train. One of Zeus's men squirms as an injured member of Quad B is walking up the stairs. Zeus grabs him to help him up as Zeus fires killing the injured man on the train. Last member of Quad B, Karen, walks over to take over for Zeus to help him limp away with his almost destroyed left leg. EXT. TYPE 6 COLONY ZEUS Command advise. COMMAND! ZEUS Suit how come I cannot reach command? STEX Communication with command has broken. All information not within this lance disappears on heads up display. Their are 5 people left in the Lance. Zeus looks back to see another train pull up behind the other train. ZEUS DROP HIM WE need speed. (The Final Mission) About two enemy units get off of the train, now not visible given that Zeus is running as fast as he can down the road. ZEUS Karen, DROP HIM. Karen looks at him and lets go of him. They both begin shooting down at the subway station. They both die. Zeus along with the last 2 go into a full sprint down the commercial street. The park is shown on the 3-D map to be almost on the other side of the colony. Zeus makes a short hand signal. ZEUS Cover our flank. The three remaining Western lancemates jump 180 degrees to run backwards as they shoot at the enemy STEX. One of the three get shot dead. Zeus points to his last quad mate. ZEUS GO! She slides to a stop and dives into the alley. Zeus does the same. ZEUS Launch infrared recon probe. Zeus points forward. As they run out the other side of the alley. They can see two snipers posted in window's opposite the street they run into. They shoot fully automatic at them. The woman STEX runs behind Zeus and into a door of a small business. Zeus is still shooting automatically, before he sidesteps and backs into the building. INT. BUILDING IN TYPE 6 COLONIES The woman is already running up the stair well to the roof. Zeus follows her up to the top- EXT. BUILDING ROOF IN TYPE 6 COLONIES and snipes on the opposite side of the building as her. The last two of the quad snipe out a few enemy STEX. A few bullets pass by the woman's head, shattering the concrete side of the building. (The Final Mission) WOMAN We need a fresh position. ZEUS Right. They get up and back up towards the center of the building. SUDDENLY Zeus sees two BiMAV arms come up over the building about two buildings over, in the direction of the road that the two stumbled into from the alley.(slow down time) Zeus's mouth drops to the ground scrambling with his feet as he pushed his feet out towards the center of the building and she does the same. The woman is facing the other direction before a shell separates her two halves. Another shell passes by just over Zeus. Zeus begins to roll on his side too his right towards the alley they ran through twenty seconds ago. Each succession of two shells passes by Zeus closely on both sides of him. Zeus rolls onto all fours as he approaches the edge of the building. (speed up time) Zeus pushes off from both arms which are holding his riffle, over the building. Zeus lands feet first somewhat shocked in the alley. EXT. ALLEY IN TYPE 6 COLONY AND INT. SKY COMMAND Zeus immediately runs out into the street as the sky commander says- Connection with sky command comes back online. SKY COMMANDER (VO) BiMAVs won't be coming. They are taking our command center. ALL units BLOW OUT! BLOW OUT!! Time seems to slow as Zeus views his girlfriend being shot once in the heart on the interface. ZEUS Athena are you alive? Zeus touches her name, bring up a picture of her dead station. Her EKG is in cardiac arrest. Zeus sweeps away the interface with his right hand as he reaches it to pick up his plastic explosive package. Zeus throws it up the road a bit. SUBSTITUTE SKY ASSISTANT (FROM A DIFFERENT SKY COMMAND CENTER) WHAT ARE YOU DOING Zeus detonate. (The Final Mission) ZEUS I will. Helmet off.YES! (he is sure before the suit can butt in) Zeus casts the helmet on top of the building to the left. We hear it but not see it. CUT TO: Athena is being STEXed. The Suit starts automatically oxygenating and circulating her blood. STEX Initiating blood circulation and oxygen. STEX Tissue repair to chest region in process. CUT TO: Camera sits facing Zeus's face as he outstretches his arms and clenches his fists. ZEUS Fuck this Fallen Nanotopia. Detonate. Zeus is knocked over backwards. Wind blows by Zeus, but he does not move. Zeus releases his backpack symbolizing both him giving up on life and his suit giving up on gripping the ground, to keep him from moving. Zeus slides out of the rough, sharp, and random gash. SPC. JUST OUTSIDE TYPE 6 COLONY Falling into the vacuum, the life is sucked out of Zeus, along with his air, and blood through his ruptured aveloi in his lungs. He silently gasps for a second before his life fades. Silence rules as unconsciousness does. Zeus rotates with slight motion, eyes still open as if he saw hell. FADE OUT. seconds of pure blackness.
