               (Switch Up Briefing)

                                   ZEUS
                         Then I'll do it.

                                   TITAN (ON WALL)
                         You would anyways you know what
                         tortures we apply to deserters.

                                   ARTEMIS
                         Yes we know.

                                   TITAN (ON WALL)
                         I'll give you 2 time to talk before
                         the battle which is high risk for
                         both of you.

               Titan's face disappears from the screen and is replace with
               stars.



               LAST LOVE SCENE

                                   ZEUS (EXCITED)
                         So one more battle.

                                   ARTEMIS
                         But it is high risk even the low
                         risk battles are insanely
                         dangerous.

                                   ZEUS
                         But this one is my last I am sure I
                         will survive that.

                                   ARTEMIS
                         Don't be so fool hardy.

                                   ZEUS
                         I am just trying to have confidence
                         so that I can charge enemy
                         positions to take them down.

                                   ARTEMIS
                         But you have finishing fever you'll
                         take to many risks.

                                   ZEUS
                         Ok I'll die.

                                   ARTEMIS
                         NO DON'T SAY THAT. You're going to
                         live, you  are  going to live.

                                   ZEUS
                         I might, I just might.



               SWITCH UP, THE FINAL MISSION



               SPC. OUTSIDE KRAKATAU

               Look out window, zoom in to fleets, anti-vertigo shot in to
               entire fleet, hover there, two very small lasso/box zooms to
               into where Zeus has landed on the Krakatau. His pod bounced
               off a few meters away. Zeus has been magnetized to the hull
               and is trying to cut through it. A green triangle appears
               over Zeus's head, with his name, Greek squad letter, quad
               number, and number. Quick unzoom to show entire fleet with
               the green, blue, and red triangles.

               Zoom out from front screen of command center. Smooth motion
               to swing camera around to face Sky Commander-

                                   SKY COMMANDER
                         You're just in the nick of time
                         commandos,
                             (points to dj)



               DJ HIT IT

               then around Artemis to her lower left corner of the screen
               showing Zeus in the first person.

                                   ARTEMIS
                         You got it baby, slide in,
                         remagnetizing.



               INT. KRAKATAU HALLWAYS AND INT. WESTERN SKY COMMAND CENTER

                                   ARTEMIS
                         You have to plant explosives on the
                         door.

                                   ARTEMIS
                         Run through before the next door
                         seals!

               There are STEX Zeus kills here. As soon as the big door
               seals, Zeus loses contact with Artemis. Cut away from helmet
               cam view.

                                   ZEUS
                         Artemis please advise. Artemis are
                         you there? Can you hear me. Fuck
                         you faraday.

               After a bit communication is regained-

               (Switch Up, the final mission)

                                   STEX (IN SKY COMMANDER'S VOICE)
                         We don't have much time remember,
                         the Eastern fleet is traveling
                         faster than intelligence initially
                         thought, they began to accelerate
                         faster and faster.

                                   ZEUS
                         Yes I know commander, please suit
                         stop regurgitating and tell me what
                         direction the bridge is.

                                   STEX
                         Do not comprehend. Travel that way.

               Says Zeus's suit as it gives Zeus an arrow to where he is to
               be going.

               The STEX does have some limited DJ abilities.

               Zeus occasionally meet up with other commandos and stick
               together to help the last of the commandos take over the
               bridge. As soon as Zeus takes control of the bridge. The
               specialists sit down. Zeus of course being curious looks at
               the screen.

                                   ZEUS
                         Shit they took over the Liberty!
                         When did they do that?

                                   NAVAL FIELD SPECILIST
                         Just now.

                                                                CUT TO:



               INT. LIBERTY HALLWAYS

               Persephone, holding a riffle, in a STEX, looking up at an
               American flag, as part of a take over team leaving the
               transport to take over the Liberty.

               Persephone plays an easier and more passive role, but are
               still vital to taking control of the bridge.



               INT. LIBERTY BRIDGE

               Persephone takes the bridge, just a few seconds before the
               West takes control of Krakatau. Hermes appears in the upper
               right hand corner of the big screen.

                                   HERMES
                         Persephone just as we expected
                         Western commando teams are taking
                         Eastern vessels.

               (Switch Up, the final mission)

               Rapid cuts of Hermes keeps Persephone informed on everything
               that is happening. The battle is fairly easy for Persephone,
               each of the Eastern Vessels turns bad at a set time up until
               the Krakatau is captured.

               The Krakatau is captured at a time set by the previous bout
               with Zeus, the earlier he captures it, the earlier Persephone
               sees it taken over.

                                   PERSEPHONE
                         Commander, we just lost the
                         Krakatau, I cannot win the battle
                         without it, we need to take it
                         back.

                                   HERMES
                         One of our best commando teams has
                         just got on it, we will take it
                         back in no time.

               Show commando Eastern commando teams getting of transports
               into The Krakatau.

                                                                CUT TO:

                         Just now.

               Zeus begins navigating the hallways to reach the rail
               launcher.

                                   ZEUS
                         Sky commander, request permission
                         to lead an assault team to take
                         back the Liberty.

                                   SKY COMMANDER
                         Negative, how are you going to get
                         on it, they will shoot down any
                         transports.

                                   ZEUS
                         I can launch myself in a low
                         velocity container and repenetrate
                         their hull.

                                   SKY COMMANDER
                         No they would notice 16 slow moving
                         shells going towards one ship and
                         shoot them all down, come on this
                         is rudimentary.

               (Switch Up, the final mission)

                                   ZEUS
                         What if I only sent one, do you
                         think they would notice?

                                   SKY COMMANDER
                         Well you might get through but I
                         need you here defending this ship.

                                   ZEUS
                         But there's all already enough
                         people here.

                                   SKY COMMANDER
                         No god damn it, I won't have any of
                         this crazy shit, block transmission
                         from Zeus.

                                   ZEUS
                         Prepare my container.

                                   RANDOM GUY AT CONSOLE
                         But sir what about the sky-

                                   RANDOM GUY AT CONSOLE
                         Uh yes.

               Random Guy At Console does it while Zeus runs down to the
               rail gun.

                                   ARTEMIS
                         DON'T DO THIS! ARE YOU CRAZY.

                                   ZEUS
                         I created this god forsaken war,
                         now I am going to kill it.

                                   ARTEMIS
                         But Zeus THAT IS SUICIDE.

                                   ZEUS

                                   ZEUS
                         FINE BITCH!! Suit, show me the way

                         Don't do it.

               Zeus presses a button to shut off radio communications.

               Zeus follows his suit right to the waiting container, that
               Zeus immediately gets on.

               Show Zeus immediately getting in, closing the door, and Zeus

               Freeze image for a second so we can read the message.

               The Western soldiers are defending from multiple incursion
               sites as the East attempts to overwhelm their positions.

               More fighting on this front.

               (Switch Up, the final mission)

               Once Zeus's shell collides with the Liberty-

               Zeus is in the pod, Zeus has to open the door and get out.
               There are enemy STEX in this room, Zeus shoots them.

               Zeus has to overtake the ship literally by himself. This is
               the hardest thing to do for Zeus by far.

               When Zeus get past a very difficulty security blockade-

                         the ship, do not let any more slow
                         shells get by, they are deceiving.

                         Shit I didn't even think of that,
                         thanks.

               Persephone commands the naval battle, it becomes very intense
               and difficult, things begin to happen a lot faster.

               Persephone hear sirens for the ship but it does not affect
               her interface, she ignores them until-

                                                                CUT TO:



               INT. KRAKATAU HALLWAYS

               The Western Commandos continuing to defend the Krakatau.

               The landing troops get a foothold and the Westerners have to
               start sacrificing ground to them.

               At that certain time in the battle-

               INT. LIBERTY HALLWAYS

               Zeus who is trying as hard as he can to get to the bridge,
               alarms are going on all around Zeus.

               It becomes even harder as the enemy STEX begin charging Zeus
               from all directions, there are more of them now, more
               aggressive, and more well organized.

               (Switch Up, the final mission)

               Zeus finally makes it to the Sky Command Center.



               INT. LIBERTY SKY COMMAND CENTER AND INT. WESTERN SKY COMMAND

                         Zeus kill everybody in the room
                         (which is very hard in and of
                         itself).

                                   ZEUS
                         Open up all radio communications.

                         Sky commander forgive me for
                         violating orders-

                         Shut up and stick your interface in
                         the port to your left.

                                   ZEUS
                         Right.

                         Ok now, very good, I am right back
                         in, it is nice knowing the command
                         codes.

                                   SKY COMMANDER
                         Thank you Zeus, you were right, it
                         seems you are GOD!

                                   ZEUS
                         I do what I can, I do what I need
                         to do.

               Screens all around the room change colors.

                         Holy shit, we are being locked out
                         from all ship functions, THE



               LIBERTY IS GOING HOSTILE!

                                   SKY COMMANDER
                         WHAT!!?

               (Switch Up, the final mission)

                                   SPECILIST 4
                         Being taken over by the bridge
                         apparently they rewrote permissions
                         making the Supreme Admiral more
                         important than the Sky Commander,
                         locking in on it.

                                   SKY COMMANDER
                         Zeus you have a new mission, if
                         this works, quadruple pay.

                                   ZEUS
                         Alright Artemis, where too.

                         To the bridge, unless Specialist 4
                         finds another way.

                         Don't sweat it though he won't make
                         it much farther all units converge

                         Keep me informed.

                                   HERMES
                         I will.

               Persephone commands the mission everything becomes messy as
               the fleets draw nearer to each other, it is becoming harder
               and harder to stay alive.

               After the allotted time of fighting.

               INT. KRAKATAU HALLWAYS

               Basically this slot it all about losing ground retreating
               constantly to the overwhelming forces. They get the Western
               STEX back to their secondary defenses. When the men get back
               to the quadentary defense most of the Western Hold Outs are
               dead but alas Western reinforcements take down the last of
               the enemy.

                                   REINFORCER
                         Are there any enemies.

                                   HOLD OUT
                         No you took them all down.

                                   WESTERN COMMANDOS
                         Whoooho. YEAH!

                         Go out the left, I mean right door.

               Zeus goes through and fight the men reserved to defend
               Artemis. This is by far the hardest slot for Zeus as they are
               prepared for Zeus's arrival and surprise/trap/trick Zeus
               quite often.

               After going through the last defending hallway of defense
               Zeus makes it to-

                                   ARTEMIS
                         This at the end of the hallway is
                         the door, make it there Zeus I know
                         you can do it.

                                   ZEUS
                         I can-

               Zeus goes out and kills the last 2 Eastern STEX.

               Zeus runs to the door and start cutting through it with a hot
               knife.

                                   ARTEMIS
                         Oh no Eastern soldiers are
                         converging on our command center,
                         looks like you're the one that is
                         in a safer position.

               The border to Persephone's screen changes color as she
               notices the Liberty changing sides.

                                   PERSEPHONE
                         Why did I lose control of this
                         ship?

               Persephone presses a button to reassert her control.

                                   HERMES
                         Zeus took the bridge.

                                   PERSEPHONE
                         Is he going to kill me, should I be
                         scarred for my life.

                                   HERMES
                         No, I've assembled many men in
                         front of your hallway they should
                         hold him off until reinforcements
                         arrive to relive them.

                                   PERSEPHONE
                         Let's hope your so-called elite
                         soldier are able to KILL
                         HIM!!!!!!!!

               Silence remains after that outburst as Persephone manages the
               messy chaotic fleet, The Liberty is very close to destruction
               as the ship should be all torn up right now about 30%. Both
               sides of the fleet should be seriously fucked up, except for
               the Krakatau. However neither the West nor East are attacking
               the Liberty because they both expect to hold it.

                                   HERMES
                         He is getting close to your
                         position, I want you to set up full
                         fusion reactor self destruct. right
                         now.

                                   PERSEPHONE
                         Huh!!!!?

               (Switch Up, the final mission)

                                   HERMES
                         Please just do it, it looks like we
                         won't be able to take the Krakatau
                         due to the Western reinforcements
                         there, and if Zeus succeeds then we
                         will lose the war, unless you press
                         the big red button.

               Persephone has already set it up and there is a big red
               button just at the right of the screen.

               Persephone is in the room commanding the fleets as they are
               slowing down, trying to prevent themselves from running into
               each other (some big ships are actually colliding with each
               other.)

               It is looking very bad for the East on the screen.

               Persephone looks back behind her. Sparks are flying.

               Persephone presses a button to bring up the cameras, she
               presses the right button to get the camera on Zeus.

               Show him Zeus who is 3/4 done cutting a hole in the door.

                                   PERSEPHONE
                         HOLY SHIT HE IS CUTTING THROUGH THE



               FUCKING DOOR, HE'S RIGHT BEHIND

                                   HERMES
                         Press the button, press the big red
                         button.

               Persephone hesitates, then elegantly yet grudgingly presses
               the button with two fingers.

               Persephone watches intently as her interface is dominated by
               the fusion reactor virtual interface. The camera in the
               fusion reactor is brought up automatically with temperature
               gauge and estimated time till critical mass.

                                   PERSEPHONE
                         It is working, we'll destroy both
                         fleets.

                                   SKY COMMANDER
                         Better get in that rail launcher

               Persephone runs to a command station. Zeus is 3/4 of the way
               done with the hot knife.

                                                       ZOOM INTO CAMERA
                                                               OF ZEUS:

               (Switch Up, the final mission)

               When the knifing is complete, he instantly drops the knife
               onto the ground still hot, and slams the left side of his
               left fist into the hole pushing it in.

                                   PERSEPHONE
                         Send me.

               Elegantly and perfectly Zeus eases into the small hole.

               Just as Zeus aims his riffle. She goes down into the ship and
               presumably far away.

               Zeus runs over to the location Persephone was commanding
               from. It show on the screen that The fusion reactors are
               going critical.

                                   ARTEMIS
                         I've got control over the launcher

                         NOW!

               Zeus runs over to one of the command station.

                                   ZEUS
                         GET ME OUT OF HERE!

               Zeus goes into the ship too, to be launched in front of the
               shockwave of the nuclear explosion.

                                   ARTEMIS
                         God no they've taken over our

               TAKEN!!

               Liberty becomes pure white as the spherical explosion expands
               to destroy both of the chaotic and embattled fleets,
               destroying everything in pure whiteness. Many escape many
               more die.

               White for a few seconds, and silence. Slowly "The End"
               appears very thin, then thickens slowly, in all directions

               until the entire screen is black.
