               INT. BUILDING IN TYPE 7 COLONY

               Zeus is the only one to make it into a building, and looks

               back to see the last of his lance go down.

               One of the enemy STEX throws plastic onto one of Spear

               Head's legs.

               Zeus looks through the window as he sees the BiMAV go down.

               Zeus runs past a cowering civilian, to the other entrance to

               the building.

               Zeus runs out into the desolate, and quiet street behind the

               building.



               EXT. RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT IN TYPE 7 COLONY

                                   ZEUS
                         Sky, I need and exit,, NOW!

                                   STEX SUIT
                         Radio connection unstable, unable

               to emit signal.

                                   ZEUS
                         Save audio and send ASAP.

                                   STEX SUIT
                         Beep.

                                   ZEUS
                         Turn off music.

                                   STEX SUIT
                         Beep.

               Zeus looks around hopelessly, enjoying the illusionary calm.

               Zeus looks to the left and sees a metro sign.

               (A close call by any account)

                                   ZEUS
                         There!

               Zeus bolts like the wind, reserving absolutely no energy.

               Zeus notices a large shell blowing up right near him, and

               dives down the staircase into the sub station.



               INT. SUBSTATION 1 IN TYPE 7 COLONY

               Zeus forward rolls down the stairwell  to a sprint and dives

               through the window of the now leaving train.



               INT. MAGLEV TRAIN IN TYPE 7 COLONY

               Zeus gets up, and looks around at all of the scarred faces.

                                   ZEUS (SPEAKER)
                         Everybody, get down now, no wait

               get up against that side of the car.

               Set destination to Station-

               Zeus accesses his interface.

                                   ZEUS (SPEAKER)

               The people comply with the STEXed Warrior.

               Once they are done. Zeus detaches his clip from his belt.

               Zeus falls to a knelling position, blows off/sheds his suit,

               Zeus releases his glove and immediately grasps his riffle

               again. As Zeus straightens his body he puts his chemical

               pistol closer to him.

                                   ZEUS
                         You, take off all of your clothes

               and throw them to me.

                                   ZEUS
                         You, take off your sandals.

               Zeus takes off his shroud and puts on the clothing thrown to

               him. Zeus puts his chemical pistol in his pants pocket. He

               looks like any ordinary civilian, except for the huge riffle,

               with a 1 M clip wrapped around the barrel.

               The train comes to a stop.



               INT. SUBSTATION 2 IN TYPE 7 COLONY

               The door opens. Zeus backs out, turns around, as he throws

               down/drops his riffle and bolts up the staircase.

               (A close call by any account)

               Zeus looks very startled as a quad of STEX is running down

               the staircase. Zeus backs against the railing and fondles

               the pistol in his pocket.

                                   ENEMY STEX (SPEAKER)
                         Where is he?

                                   ZEUS
                         Uhhh. He is down there, holding

               them hostage.

               Enemy STEX signals for his quad to move on.

               Zeus looks back and runs up the stairs as fast as his legs

               will take him. Zeus gets to the top of the stairs, and

               without his STEX, Zeus has no Idea where to go.



               EXT. RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT IN TYPE 7 COLONY

               Zeus hears gunshots and runs towards them, after traveling

               for about a block Zeus comes up to a commercial park,

               similar to the last one, which was never reached.

               A quad of enemy STEX is there posted against the rebels, who

               are barricaded behind the modern art structure structures.

               Only one of the enemies is still alive, still shooting at

               the rebels.

               Zeus runs up behind him, thinks for a second.

               The heavy STEX is knelling with his gun propped up on its

               compact bipod. Right hand on the handle of the gun, with a

               left hand on top of the barrel (with fingers over the top

               not the bottom) stabilizing it.

               Zeus's gun cannot penetrate through this heavy armor. Zeus

               blows off the fingers off his left hand.

               The STEX jolts with sudden pain and surprise, looks over at

               Zeus stepping to his right.

               Zeus steps to the side of him, and with his right leg kicks

               the barrel of the riffle into the air.

               The STEX does not have his muscles in his left arm tensed so

               the gun rotates all the way past vertical on the energy of

               the kick alone. Zeus grabs the bottom of the gun with the

               left hand, while the barrel with the right rotating it out

               of the STEX's right hand.

               Zeus rotates the gun another 180 degrees, switches his hands,

               rotating it directly into a shootable position.

               An instant of pause.

               (A close call by any account)

               The STEX grabs for his pistol. Just as he starts pulling his

               pistol out Zeus presses the gun to his shoulder. The gun

               fires the instant it touches Zeus's shoulder sending the

               riffle to recoil into the air.

               A hole inhabits the STEX's chest.

               Zeus is knocked almost off balance, and rubs his shoulder in

               pain.

               Zeus reaches over and detaches the clip from the deceased

               belt. Zeus throws the excess around the gun.

               Zeus puts it down and starts waving both arms.

                                   ZEUS
                         Hello rebels don't shoot I am Zeus.

               See from held out STEX, with interface, Zeus. Zeus is orange

               on their interface.



               STEX

               Hey it's Zeus. Hey Zeus get over here.

               Zeus hears the speaker and runs over carrying the humongous
               gun.

               The held up STEX are fighting from a small area full of

               obstacles, and strewn with the dead. Their is a control

               console, where one of the STEX has laid his riffle still

               attached to his suit via the clip. This STEX is operating

               the controls, managing the logistics of loading and firing

               multiple loaders on through one primary accelerator.

                                   ZEUS
                         We gotta get out of here now!



               STEX

               What?

                                   ZEUS
                         Prep the launcher, we are leaving.



               NOW!!

               The group of STEX look at Zeus like he is crazy, then

               realize that he is their commanding officer, and it would be

               nice to leave.

               Zeus runs directly to the rail launcher.

               Just then a full lance of mini-BiMAVs.

                                   ZEUS
                         Minis, get in the fuckin launcher.

               (A close call by any account)

               All of the STEX except for the operator run to the hole in

               the ground. A container zooms up and stops, Zeus dives right

               in seeking safety.

               The operator is still at the controls, still involved in

               setting up the launch, because otherwise there would be none.

               The fire from the minis becomes intense, not all of the STEX

               make it to the container.

               The operator looks over at the container. Nobody else is

               running towards it.

               The operator presses the button to seal and then immediately

               the button to launch the container on the predesignated
               course.

               The minis fire their machine guns at a point where the

               quickly leaving container will pass.

               The operator looks up at the minis. Picks up his riffle,

               turns to run away, and is shot dead.

                                                                CUT TO:



               INT. CONTAINER

               Zeus is shot in the side just above the hip, just below the

               rib cage. The bullet ripped through Zeus's torso, Zeus is

               bleeding profusely.

               Everybody is shot to one side of the cylinder as it

               accelerates. The acceleration abruptly stops.

               Air is venting.

               The STEX turn on their luminosity.

                                   ZEUS
                         I'm naked, fill the fucking holes
                         in.

               The STEX scramble to fill the holes in as Zeus is grasping

               for air. Luckily they isolate the holes quickly and finish,

               while there is still .12 atmospheres left.

               Zeus is still gasping looking up at the STEX, trying to tell

               them but being unable to speak.

               The STEX look at each other, then they begin venting gas.

               Zeus breathes better now, though he is hyperventilating in a

               state of complete horror.



               STEX

               Zeus, what's wrong.

               (A close call by any account)

                                   ZEUS
                         .. ..



               STEX

               Everything is alright, we will be

               home soon.

               Zeus's lips shake violently as he is completely unable to

               respond.



               STEX

               He must be in shock, he almost died

               back there.

               Zeus looks distressed still in horror, with slightly deeper

               breaths.



               STEX

               Zeus are you alright.

                                   ZEUS
                         I'm just glad I'm alive.



               CUT TO: CLOSE UP OF HERMES'S FACE



               THE MEETING



               INT. MEETING ROOM

                                   HERMES
                         We have come to a very difficult

               bend in our crusade.

                                                                CUT TO:

               The rest of the high commanders sitting at the captain's

               meeting room.

               They sit in quiet anticipation.

                                   HERMES
                         We cannot function as we were able

               to in space. Although our missions

               are bringing many fighters to our

               cause there are very few left whom

               we can recruit.

                                   HERMES
                         But most importantly the West seems

               to be able to spare more and more

               of their fleet to guard the interior.

                                   HERMES
                         The frontier becomes weaker and

               weaker for them as the East is

               beginning to push them back, which

               is good for the East, but bad for

               our cause, because then the West

               will be in a better position to

               trap and destroy the Leviathan.

                                   HERMES
                         If you have not figured it out we

               have been gathering great hordes of

               mechanized ground forces, and large

               quantities for a reason.

                                   HERMES
                         It is of the utmost importance and

               seriousness, that I propose the

               next step towards our victory.

               Dramatic pause, nobody breathes.

               (The Meeting)

                                   HERMES
                         We are going to invade Earth
                         herself.

               The commanders are awed and shocked, while expecting this

               step at the same time.

                                   HERMES
                         I could not tell anybody because

               the West would then arm itself in

               preparation for the inevitable battle.

                                   HERMES
                         They have prepared somewhat, and

               have beefed up defense systems and

               upgraded the power plants powering

               the big guns, the most serious

               obstacle in our invasion.

                                   HERMES
                         Before I go any further Zeus I have

               a surprise present from you which

               we managed to smuggle in from the East.

                                   ZEUS
                         What a new kind of drug.

                                   HERMES
                         No,, ladies.

               Artemis then Athena walk into the room.

                                   ZEUS
                         Artemis, and Athena too!?

                                   ARTEMIS

                                   ZEUS
                         But which one of you am I going to

               (The Meeting)

                                   ZEUS
                         Oh my god I'll have so much on my

               hands.

                                   ATHENA

               who will direct the leading

               subcommanders so you don't get so

               swamped with tasks.

                         Zeus you are to lead and command

               this invasion with Athena, Artemis,

               and Persephone. Will you all accept

               your position.

                         In the morning you will be briefed

               on the mission. Once the Earth

               campaign is over you, Zeus, Artemis,

               Athena, and Persephone, will become

               the quadruple that will rule the World.

               Athena and Artemis are feeling Zeus up, while Persephone is

               just standing there.

                         I am going to have to agree with

               the comadary on this one.

                         I'll get the door.

               Persephone let's Zeus's arms down kinda hard. Zeus hits his

                         Ouch I think I'll walk from here.

                         The big guns prevent assaults

               directly upon populations of the

               Earth by many ground forces and

               launching massive torpedoes into space.

                         Completed since the war began, this

               two pronged defense system could

               deploy any sort of armament.

               During below dialogue show Power system.

                                   ATHENA (VO)
                         The system was powered by a 400,000

               gigawatt fusion plant on the ground

               supplemented by 4 auxiliary power

               stations of undisclosed capabilities,

               predicted to be 20 - 80 gigawatt

               each. Also an extensive solar power

               grid around the facility provides

               enough power for 4 surrounding

               cylindrical colonies.

                         The big gun facility got its name

               from the primary ground based rail

               artillery cannon. This cannon can

               fire at a rate of 2 rounds per

               minute, and can accelerate a 600 KG

               armament to a velocity of 40 KM/s,

               providing enough energy to punch a

               hole in the leviathan in

               Geosynchronous orbit.

               During below dialogue show ground power.

               of conventional weapons including

               ground based missiles and space

               torpedoes, this shield was

               considered by some to be impenetrable.

                         When the East attacked the Ecuador

               ladder, the first thing their

               agents did was disable the big gun.

               There was an insider, who helped

               the East get the command codes and

               stand down the big gun, but he was

               captured so we don't have an

               insider on this mission.

                                   ATHENA (VO)
                         In the war the big guns proved very

               useful, in supplementing the fleet

               from the ground. Also the West

               needed a defense of its sea boards

               from the vicious swarm tactics that

               finally toppled the stalemate in

               Great Britain.

                         The West has an approximate

               hexagonal lattice big guns, all of

               which are completely prevalent in

               our invasion. They are each located

               around 100 kilometers from each other.

               disabled to at least some extent in

               order for a space/ground logistical

                         The Leviathan will move down to a

               Geo-sustained orbit at below stable

               Earth orbit, the Leviathan will

               have to reorient to allow it to use

               its primary thrusters in order to

               levitate over Seattle.

               During below dialogue show a round drive into the Leviathan,

               air is already venting from where previous shells had hit.

                         This is necessary in order to

               prevent space launched torpedoes

               from being able to hit our

               transports, while at the same time

               makes the front end of the

               Leviathan vulnerable to fire from

               the big gun.

                         Although the Big gun is the most

               powerful ground based cannon ever

               created, most of its launch

               velocity is lost to the viscosity

               of air and the pull of gravity,

               making it comparable to the primary

               cannons of any large spaceship.

                                   ATHENA (VO)
                         However, given the quantity and

               magnitude of our arsenal, and our

               orientation above the Earth, , we

               can deal some heavy damage to

               peripheral weaponry on the surface.

               During below dialogue follow torpedo to 100 M above a small

               missile battery near the Big Gun. Show the battery explode.

                                   ATHENA (VO)
                         The Leviathan will try and take out

               as much of the peripheral defense

               network as possible, bombarding the

               region in order to soften the

               facility up for our transports.

               During below dialogue show other such targets being

               destroyed by a shitload of laser and torpedo fire.

                                   ATHENA (VO)
                         But this bombardment can only

               effectively proceed while the

               Leviathan is just outside the

               atmosphere, as firing the shells

               directly into the atmosphere makes

               Western space based
