AFRICA
EXT. OGOOUE RIVER
Zeus opens the pod and swims to shore.
Looking out onto the expanse of the green savanna plains Zeus
sees 4 black jeeps approaching with africans driving(Plasma
assault riffle next to them) with another african in the jeep
holding a plasma assault riffle, and 3 CIA guys in Hawaiian
shirts; 2 white and 1 black in three different jeeps.
Zeus waves as 3 futuristic Jeeps pulls up right next to Zeus.
African CIA opens door for Zeus.
AFRICAN CIA 1(WHITE GUY)
Hi, get in.
Zeus is gets into the left back seat.
ZEUS
I am not so sure this is a training
op anymore.
Zeus is in.
African CIA all start laughing, African CIA 3(black) still
laughing translates to French for the natives, they start
laughing also.
African CIA 1 leads the way by starting to drive.
EXT. AFRICAN DIRT ROAD IN JUNGLE
ZEUS
Ohhhh fuck I just started World War
wow duude that's tripped out.
AFRICAN CIA 1
Hopefully the media corporations
will successfully portray your
character as a terrorist and not
CIA. Otherwise yes there will be
World War 3.
ZEUS
How am I getting back to the
states?
(Africa)
AFRICAN CIA 1
We are driving to one of President
Amini's personal airstrips, a C
385 SkyJumper is ready and waiting
to lift us off. I will escort you
personally, the others stay here.
ZEUS
Oh you get to be the shophur how
exciting.
AFRICAN CIA 1
Yeah to bad there's no action.
Zeus looks over at the other jeep, where African CIA 2(white)
is talking on a sleek cell phone(which company is going to
pay to have their cell phone shown). African CIA 2 appears to
have hung up and is speed dialing.
African CIA 1's cell phone is ringing.
AFRICAN CIA 1
What's happening.
AFRICAN CIA 2
Gorillas have taken over the air
strip, everyone who is guarding it
is dead.
AFRICAN CIA 1
A road block?
AFRICAN CIA 2
We don't know, but they don't have
any war vehicles besides jeeps.
AFRICAN CIA 1
We have to assume they don't have
enough time to severely barricade
the position. How many men are
there.
AFRICAN CIA 2
Last time I heard 36 naked natives-
AFRICAN CIA 1
nakeds with no STEX are not so bad.
AFRICAN CIA 2
and at least 4 STEX.
AFRICAN CIA 1
Rebels don't have STEX what the
fuck is going on here.
(Africa)
AFRICAN CIA 2
Supposedly the STEX are ESP.
AFRICAN CIA 1
ESP, Eastern Secret Police, what
the hell are they doing here, this
means that Europeans had advanced
knowledge of the attack.
AFRICAN CIA 2
I thought the same thing.
AFRICAN CIA 1
Regardless my orders are very
explicit: "Get Zeus back to the USA
no matter what." Therefore we must
continue as planned else we will be
caught here.
AFRICAN CIA 1
African CIA 3 tell our drivers what
is going on then await contact from
Republican Reinforcements. I'll
call the President of Gabon to get
more men.
AFRICAN CIA 3
Aya captain.
African CIA begins screaming in French so all the Gabonese
can hear.
AFRICAN CIA 1
In case we don't make it we have to
inform the CIA that there are ESPs
here. African CIA 2 call homebase;
tell them everything.
African CIA 1 hangs up cell phone.
ZEUS
What the hell is going on?
AFRICAN CIA 1
Shut up, I'll explain later.
African CIA 1 dials a 13? digit number.
AFRICAN CIA 1
President Amini I am from the CIA
we need to evac one of our
personnel immediately via that
airstrip. It's been taken over by
rebels.
(Africa)
PRESIDENT AMINI
Not my problem I have already
helped you enough-
AFRICAN CIA 1
NOT YOUR FUCKING PROBLEM!!!? I'LL
TELL YOU WHAT YOUR FUCKING PROBLEM
IS; YOU'VE GOT REBELS GETTING A
FOOTHOLD IN YOUR COUNTRY!! IF YOU
DON'T SUPPORT us, we are going to support those rebels and
not you. That's besides the fact that I am going to
PERSONALLY PUT A FUCKING BULLET THROUGH YOUR GOD DAMN THICK
SKULL!!!
PRESIDENT AMINI
Alright, I have some minute men
nearby, I'll send them in Jeeps to
meet you on the road just before
the strip.
AFRICAN CIA 1 (PERFECTLY CALM)
Thank you very much sir, I am sure
that you will have a prosperous
future as the President of Gabon.
Have a good day.
African CIA 1 hangs up cell phone.
ZEUS
Wow that was a wonderful strong
arm, perfectly superb.
AFRICAN CIA 1 (PERFECTLY CALM)
I've been in the CIA for over
(African CIA 1 begins to
dial a number)
years I know what I am doing. I
started off shipping dope out of
Afghanistan.
AFRICAN CIA 3
Hello.
AFRICAN CIA 1
Have the minute men contacted you
yet?
AFRICAN CIA 3
Yes they are currently mounting
their jeeps.
(Africa)
AFRICAN CIA 1
It appears that CIA 2 is still on
the phone with homebase.
AFRICAN CIA 3
I am just wondering; how are we
actually getting on this plane.
AFRICAN CIA 1
Your not, I am going to have all
Jeeps form up into a V with one of
the African's taking point, I will
follow directly behind point, you
will be on the lower right of the V
and African CIA 2 on the lower left
most point.
AFRICAN CIA 1
Support us with fire until we get
onto the plane then have all jeeps
swerve away from battle. I and Zeus
will ride directly onto the plane
and you 2 will be on your own until
you get back to base.
AFRICAN CIA 3
Ok we form a V you directly behind
the front us two at the back, we
charge the position and once you're
on the plane we all drive away.
AFRICAN CIA 1
Yep that's it.
AFRICAN CIA 3
That sounds simple enough. Stop at
the cross roads just ahead we'll
meet the reinforcements there.
African CIA 1 lets the cell phone move away from his face.
AFRICAN CIA 1
I see it, chauffeur arręt.
The 3 original Jeeps come to a stop, with CIA 2's the most
forward.
AFRICAN CIA 1
GET YOUR JEEP OUT OF THE
CROSSROADS.
African CIA 2 still on phone to home base signals the driver
to reverse.
African CIA 2's jeep backs up behind the intersection.
(Africa)
African CIA 1 talking on cell phone;
AFRICAN CIA 1
Ok tell the reinforcements about
the V formation. Tell them not to
stop at all.
AFRICAN CIA 3
We're going up against 4 ESPs and
36 nakeds.
AFRICAN CIA 1
Yeah right.
African CIA 1 hangs up cell phone.
ZEUS
How long until they get here.
AFRICAN CIA 1
Should be in a minute or so. We're
fucking charging 4 ESPs, and 36
naked rebels.
This is very simple the strip is
just a few hundred meters up ahead.
African CIA 1 points to GPS based mapping system at front of
Jeep.
AFRICAN CIA 1
Hopefully this jeep will drive
directly into the plane.
ZEUS
How does the driver know.
AFRICAN CIA 1(FRENCH)
Drive behind the V directly into
the plane's bay.
Driver nods.
AFRICAN CIA 1(FRENCH)
Good let's get ready people!
African CIA 1 looks in the back and finds 2 plasma riffles,
one he gives to Zeus.
AFRICAN CIA 1
Here, when I tell you to pop up and
fire on your side at the ESP. If
they are in front we have to push
them away so they don't hit our
jeep.
(Africa)
ZEUS
Ok don't worry I'll take him down.
republican jeeps pass by in a relatively tight formation.
AFRICAN CIA 1
GO!
Jeeps follow behind them.
The road is on flat ground so the Jeeps in the front begin to
fan out in a crude V formation.
The driver of African CIA 1 begins to follow directly behind
front point.
AFRICAN CIA 1
This is very simple keep your head
low, pop up to hit those ESPs, and
hope we get on the plane alright.
ZEUS
What if the driver gets hit.
African CIA 1 has a buckled seat belt. African CIA 1 buckles
Zeus's seat belt.
AFRICAN CIA 1
Then we jump out of the jeep and
charge directly into the plane.
ZEUS
Oh god.
AFRICAN CIA 1
NO hesitating, just fucking run
onto that plane and kill everything
in your way.
ZEUS
Ok I'll do it.
EXT. AFRICA CLEARING NEAR PLANE
V formation all but complete. Shots are beginning to be
fired.
AFRICAN CIA 1
Get down!
African CIA 1 helps push Zeus to a low position.
ESP all in a picket line dump plasma on the oncoming jeeps
slaughtering many of the Republican minute men. Behind are 36
rebels wearing only camouflage cloth uniforms.
(Africa)
The C-385 SkyJumper is a futuristic sleek looking jet with 4
engines, 2 directly above the other engines which are below
the wing halfway back.
ESPs do a dive roll to dodge out of the way of the first
Jeep, they begin shooting at the first Jeep. Zeus shoots one
of the ESP and some of the rebels.
Zeus's jeep keeps on going and begins to take a wide left
arcing turn to drive into the C-385 SkyJumper. The driver of
Zeus's Jeep is shot in the heart.
The Jeep is just a few meters from the plane and begins to
turn too much and begins to roll along the ground. It stops
just 4 meters from the plane upside down.
African CIA 1 is closer to the plane than Zeus is.
Zeus and African CIA 1 automatically unbelts and get out of
the Jeep.
Zeus and African CIA 1 each kill 1 of the 2 guards to the
plane's loading bay and immediately sprint towards the bay.
African CIA 1 is the first into the plane and immediately
presses the close bay button.
Zeus jumps onto the quickly closing bay.
INT. SKYJUMPER BAY
African CIA 1 is running to the flight deck.
PLANE TO AMERICA
Zeus run also to the flight deck and get in the co-pilot's
seat.
INT. SKYJUMPER COCKPIT
African CIA 1 has already begun to start the plane.
ZEUS
Holy shit how are we going to get
out of here, they'll scramble
fighters.
AFRICAN CIA 1
No they won't, the Gabonese control
these skies not the rebels.
ZEUS
What if there are flying ESPs.
AFRICAN CIA 1
They can't fly in Gabonese air
space either cause we own it, and
the Atlantic Fleet will protect us
while we are over the Ocean.
ZEUS
The USA deployed carrier squadrons
just to protect me, I feel so
honored.
AFRICAN CIA 1
They are protecting your mask and
costume, cut it to pieces and get
ready to throw it out the bay once
were over the ocean.
ZEUS
Yes sir.
CUT TO:
INT. SKYJUMPER BAY
Zeus pressing the button to open the bay. Once the bay is
open Zeus throws the shredded cloth and plastic into the
glistening ocean below.
Meditating in silence for 5 seconds.
African CIA 1 opens the flight deck door.
(Plane to America)
Zeus presses the button to close the bay and walks back into
the flight deck.
ZEUS
I am going to sleep, tell me when
were above American soil
AFRICAN CIA 1 (LEANING OVER FROM
COCKPIT)
Alright, I'll just fly the plane alone.
ZEUS
Good night.
Zeus begins to snuggle himself to sleep outside the flight
deck on some camouflage netting.
CUT TO:
INT. SKYJUMPER BAY
AFRICAN CIA 1
Wake up, were just past the coast,
a fighter escort is directing us to
a military base in Pennsylvania.
They both walk back to the cockpit.
INT. SKYJUMPER COCKPIT
awesome looking next generation Joint strike fighters hover
on each side of the C-385 SkyJumper.
Zeus is still standing in the middle of the flight deck.
AFRICAN CIA 1
Close the door and sit down.
Zeus closes the door and is about to sit down when-
ZEUS
Look two of the Jets are flying
forward of the plane.
AFRICAN CIA 1
That's weird must be forming a
forward fighter screen for some
reason, I hope that nothing is
going to come down and attack us.
Visible on one of the peripheral viewing cameras, the 2 jets
still to the side of the C-385 SkyJumper fall back behind the
wings.
(Plane to America)
The 2 forward Jets flying forward at amazing speeds take a
sharp 180 degrees loop.
ZEUS
They're coming straight for us.
AFRICAN CIA 1
I
(a spray of plasma moves
from the top of the
cockpit down through both
of the flight chairs down
through the bottom of the
cockpit.)
kno..
African CIA 1's head falls down, his body strapped into the
chair.
ZEUS
HOLY SHIT!!
In the peripheral cameras show 4 sidewinder type missiles
deployed 2 from each rear jet take out all of the Jet engines
at the same time.
Jets continue to encircle the plane strafing it with bullets
and eventually missiles. The C-385 SkyJumper begins to take a
nose dive.
Zeus gets to a parachute and puts it on. Zeus opens the bay
door and jumps out.
AIR. OUTSIDE SKYJUMPER
Just as Zeus jumps out of the plane multiple missiles
converge to explode the fusion reactor, sending an explosive
shockwave that tears apart both fuselage and wings.
The jets do not notice Zeus from the debris that is falling
everywhere. The Jets all fly due West probably to that
military base where African CIA 1 was directed.
CUT TO:
EXT. SUBURBIA
Zeus opens the chute just above ground.
A few seconds more of falling.
Zeus lands on the ground into a roll.
(Plane to America)
Zeus takes the parachute off.
TO FIND A COMPATRIOT
CUT TO:
EXT. PAYPHONE IN SUBURBAN COMMERCIAL DISTRICT
ZEUS
I need a taxi.
CUT TO:
EXT. DOWNTOWN MCLEAN
Back in Mclean Zeus gets out of the maglev car.
Zeus is in front of a phone booth in downtown McLean. Zeus
dials his friend's number from memory.
FRIEND
Hello.
ZEUS
Meet me at the creek where the
bamboo forest is.
FRIEND
Who are you?
ZEUS
I neeeed to be reborn.
FRIEND
Oh it's you. I can't believe you
made it here how did you do it.
ZEUS
Meet there at 9 PM. OK?
FRIEND
How about 1 AM?
ZEUS
That will work I will be in the
woods.
FRIEND
Ok see you there.
ZEUS
Bye.
(To Find a Compatriot)
Zeus hangs up the phone, Click.
CUT TO:
EXT. BAMBOO FOREST IN CREEK
At 1 am show Zeus's friend walking along the pavement. When
the friend walks up to the creek.
ZEUS
Are you armed.
FRIEND
No.
ZEUS
Good I am just a bit paranoid.
FRIEND
I can see why.
ZEUS
Who is behind this shit?
FRIEND
The director is.
ZEUS
Why did he blow up the elevator.
FRIEND
He didn't you did, remember.
ZEUS
Shut the fuck up you know what I
mean and I am in no mood for
joking.
FRIEND
I'm sorry, that was inappropriate.
FREIND
The CIA is split loosely into 2
factions the war hawks and the
doves.
ZEUS
And the director is a hawk.
FREIND
Yes.
ZEUS
And you are a dove.
(To Find a Compatriot)
FRIEND
Correct.
ZEUS
Well why did he have to trick some
know nothing trainee.
FRIEND
Because nobody intelligent would
have volunteered, and they would
actually get solid information to
trace it to the CIA, while you on
the other hand know nothing that
can not be read in a newspaper,
besides of course my cell phone
number.
ZEUS
I see, can you get me a new
identity.
FRIEND
That won't be necessary.
ZEUS
Why not?
FRIEND
You will be working for us of
course, we need people like you and
it would be too risky to let you
loose.
ZEUS
Why could I blab.
FRIEND
Yeah basically that is why the West
took measures to eliminate you.
ZEUS
So what if I don't want to join
back with the CIA.
FRIEND
You will die.
ZEUS
Don't we all die.
FRIEND
No, that expression stooped working
after the fountain of youth was
invented. What I meant was you
would be caught immediately.
(To Find a Compatriot)
ZEUS
Oh shit, I guess you've probably
got this place surrounded with
agents by now?
FRIEND
phhhhhheeeet
(loud pinkie whistle)
you guys can come out now, no more
hide and seek.
chameleon STEX begin to march guns pointing forward over to
Zeus.
ZEUS
Well if you give me a new face
how,,,,
(Zeus realizes the
stupidity of what he is
saying)
can you track me.. Ahh fuck I'm
screwed.
FRIEND
Nope you just got to work for us
doves.
ZEUS
I've got no choice. I'll join.
FRIEND
Good your first assignment is to
kill the Director of the CIA.
ZEUS
What!?
FRIEND
Did you think I was joking about
the factions. We got to take this
guy out before he starts a war.
ZEUS
How am I going to do it?
FRIEND
Everything is in the car.
ZEUS
Everything? Does that include a
map?
FRIEND
Yep and your mission objective and
how to get back to where I live.
(To Find a Compatriot)
Says the friend as he leaves.
ZEUS
Wait! I haven't finished talking.
FRIEND
Nor have I. We will finish talking
at my house, see ya there.
ZEUS
See ya deush.
Friend just keeps on walking not even flinching.
Zeus looks around to see one of the STEX motion for Zeus to
enter the car.
Zeus waves to the STEX as he says.
ZEUS
Get out of here.
