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-
