AIR. NEAR THE TOP OF ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY
and receives and diverts lasers to cut 1 of the 8 defense
cannons. The 7 other soldiers on this side cut off the rest
of the defense cannons.
The 4 dolphin class transports, with doors open enter through
the hole at the center and begin turning to avoid the
asteroid.
Zeus activate the rockets and grabs onto the cable almost
directly in front of him so that Zeus can fall down at a
controlled speed rather than slamming into the ground.
The other STEX have already made it safely to the bottom by
grabbing onto the cable.
Zeus gets controlled to the bottom where Zeus completes the
braking with his gloves perfectly into a normal standing
position.
EXT. SUBURBIA IN ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY AND INT. SKY
COMMAND CENTER
The cable begins its specially
controlled retraction just as Zeus
let go of it and walks away.
The flying recon toys have already been launched in to gather
video streams viewable at any time during the mission.
(Asteroid Jockey)
But Zeus doesn't actually watch the video stream, the
commanders do. The main purpose of the recon is to determine
the exact location of all automated guns so they can be
destroyed without risk. Also it is necessary to know where to
go.
Just as Zeus walks up to the horizontal door-
ARTEMIS
Jump in it's safe.
INT. INERTS OF ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY AND INT. WESTERN
SKY COMMAND CENTER
Zeus loses contact with command intermittently in the
security quarters.
Zeus's Quad jumps down-
ARTEMIS
Split.
As Zeus's subquad navigator directs Zeus and Ray to the
security control station.
Zeus is told by Artemis about enemies in his immediate
proximity-
ARTEMIS
In the window, he's down throw a
grenade.
Zeus throws a grenade.
ARTEMIS
They are coming down the street to
your right. Ray take out the bogie
on the left.
When Zeus get's to the security control room the specialists
instruct everything Zeus should do-

INT. WESTERN SKY COMMAND CENTER
SPECILIST
Ok let me see the port is on your
right, there
The specialist points on Zeus's interface.
Zeus goes over there and plugs his port into the security
interface.

ARTEMIS
Boogies behind you!
Ray turns and kills them.
ARTEMIS (CONT'D)
GET outta there they are converging
on you.
SPECILIST
Ray put your port in the PC to the
left before you go.
RAY
Alright.
ZEUS
Lets get the fuck out of here.
INT. INERTS OF ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY
Zeus blasts through the way the fuck outta there. Ray helps
out a lot. Some time during all of this Zeus gets shot in the
stomach.
STEX SUIT
Cutting off pain receptors at
injury site.
Zeus gets directed to the outside-
EXT. SUBURBIA IN ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY AND INT. SKY
COMMAND CENTER
where he can see the combat
continuing in small pockets. Zeus
runs down the road along a straight
orange line.
ARTEMIS
Quad 1 reconstitution with quad 9.
(Asteroid Jockey)
ARTEMIS
Zeus you are still unit leader, Ray
you are 2, Athena you are 3, and F
you are now 4.
New direction lines indicate the new pathway as the newly
formed quad goes to the storage facility.
They have just reached the front of the storage facility and-
INT. STORAGE FACILITY IN ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY AND INT.
WESTERN SKY COMMAND CENTER
they sneak around to the back door and kill the guards in
their fortified position as Zeus approaches.
They wait on either side of the back door looking through the
sniper scope for any bogies. They move into Zeus's formation
as Zeus runs by.
ARTEMIS
Divide.
Ray and 4 break off to go to their corresponding tasks. Zeus
and Athena remain together for a bit. Ray dies.
ARTEMIS
Fracture.
You hear after you notice different lines of path breaking
off in the distance. Athena takes a sharp right.
ARTEMIS
Inside here there should only be
few militialized STEX, not trained
men.
SPECILIST 1
Ok men in the storage facility, I
want you to set up interfaces into
the computer systems, it is rumored
that their is a large design vault
of blueprints of war machinery,
infiltrate this vault.
Zeus starts searching.
Athena is having trouble holding off a ton of enemies.
ATHENA
Help! There's [gunshots] tons of
them!
Athena's Sky Assistant takes a green icon representing Zeus
and throws it up to Quad Commander.
(Asteroid Jockey)
QUAD COMMANDER
Zeus back up Athena's position.
ZEUS
Coming.
Zeus stops.
ZEUS
REDIRECT TO Athena's position.
Athena is pinned down behind some boxes. Zeus helps her kill
a lot of the men and as Zeus get a grenade out to throw in
where there are still enemy STEX.
SPECILIST 1
NOOOOOOO!
Specialist 1 screams so loud it hurts Zeus and Athena's ears,
they cringe at the annoyance.
SPECILIST 1
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
Hang on a sec let me talk to our
hacked security computer. [23
seconds of typing]
As militia throw a grenade into Zeus's position Athena knocks
it back with the butt of her gun. The grenade explodes but
did not kill Athena.
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
Thanks, but I don't even compare to
somebody like you.
ZEUS
One day you might, you just might.
(Asteroid Jockey)
SPECILIST
Fuck I am not used to the
interface, just blast it.
The door opens.
ZEUS
No, actually good job it's open.
SPECILIST
Ohh,, Alright set up data ports on
the biggest thing that connects.
ZEUS
Done, you getting anything?
SPECILIST
Data stream viable, I will worry
about maintaining radio
transmission of the stream, and
hacking the primary database. Over
and out.
ARTEMIS
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.
EXT. SUBURBIA IN ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY AND INT. SKY
COMMAND CENTER
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 men
will get through. We'll keep you
informed. Double time on those
launchers.
(Asteroid Jockey)
ARTEMIS (VO)
Anticipate the oncoming invasion.
Athena's quad you stay behind to
acquire BiMAVs which may be in the
area.
ATHENA
Affirm.
About 30 seconds from breakthrough time-
ONE MAN
ALL UNIT ALL UNITS BiMAVs ARE GOING
ACTIVE, TWO FULL QUADS!
As we hear him begin to fire 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 us too heavy
weapons. Remember break through is
in 15 seconds. We need to take care
of both.
Zeus is directed to engage infantry on the road. Zeus and his
STEX quad commandeer a few hover cars, to get there.
Zeus driving around engaging the enemy infantry from Zeus's
moving cars until the roads are turned off.
Zeus gets out of the car.
Zeus starts shooting down the road at the infantry, then a
fucking BiMAV walks into Zeus's field of vision from the
right as it walks behind the infantry 2 streets down.
ZEUS
Fucking BiMAV approaching, need
support.
ATHENA
Coming, will arrive soon.
Zeus begins running into commercial buildings.
(Asteroid Jockey)
EXT. COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS IN ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY AND
INT. SKY COMMAND CENTER
Another medium BiMAV comes up to follow the first BiMAV.
There is house to house fighting amongst the STEX. Then Zeus
goes back onto the street.
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 titans.
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 volley of 4 missiles seem like complete over kill as the
smoldering wreak falls to the ground. The companion BiMAV
unaware that the friendly BiMAV was the enemy, waited for
conformation.
The 2nd BiMAV was hit so hard with so much veracity, that it
could reorient itself to fire back. Friendly troops come out
of nearby houses where as the Eastern BiMAV lay in ruins.
ZEUS
I told you would be great.
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
You'll live, trust me.
SUB SKY COMMANDER 1
Move out people. We've a colony to
protect.
Specialist 4 turns to the mission commander and informs him.
(Asteroid Jockey)
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
We have 36 4MRD missiles launchable
form any of our 4 BiMAVs, to be
painted at your whim.
SPECILIST 4
SIR, I think I can use Athena's
long range ballistic cannon to hit
far up.
SKY COMMANDER
So?
SPECILIST 4
One of their BiMAVs is almost
exactly opposite Athena on a
straight road.
SKY COMMANDER
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.
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.
(Asteroid Jockey)
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.
The specialist types a few buttons then checks his work. Then
he presses the button.
CUT TO:
The launch of 3 perfectly concentric heavy artillery
launches. The 3 shells destroys 1 enemy BiMAV.
SPECILIST 4
Revert full control to operator.
ATHENA
Thanks, move out men we've got 5
more to take out.
RANDOM STEX
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.
SQUADRON FIELD LEADER (VO)
Alright sir.
ZEUS
FULL QUAD OF ENEMY BiMAVs coming up
over the horizon, closing in fast.
SKY COMMANDER (VO)
WHAT!!!!!?
(Asteroid Jockey)
Yaps the Commander completely undignified as he waves all
other tasks away and pulls up a dialogue to his monitoring
subcommander.
SUBCOMMANDER 1 (VO)
Sir he is right.
SKY COMMANDER
STEX abandon your position
immediately meet up with squadron
zeta spearheaded by Athena, and
back off to rail launcher 1.
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
Specialist won't you pilot the
BiMAV as I fall back to rail
launcher 1.
SPECILIST 6
With pleasure. 'transfer logistics
to code 734.'
ATHENA
'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
Running out of ammo need to reload,
BiMAVs 2 and 3 cover the
evacuation.
SPECILIST 6
They are about to arrive I am
taking you to our support BiMAV.
(Asteroid Jockey)
ATHENA
Alright go.
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
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
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 walk that
slowly? BiMAV quad do not slow down
if one of the commandos start to
slow down, run them over.
SKY COMMANDER
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.
(Asteroid Jockey)
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 runs into a backyard and across to the road, looking
up the road. Zeus and his STEX soldiers run towards a big
house.
INT. HOUSE IN ASTEROID REFINEMENT COLONY AND INT. SKY
COMMAND CENTER
Zeus and his men are covering
themselves in the house from
surrounding enemy infantry,
squadron beta gets chopped up but a
few survive.
ZETA COMMANDER
Rail launcher 1 has been overrun
with STEX we are docking a dolphin
class transport in a civilian port
under the house you are in it
should be there in approximately 2
minutes.
Firing out windows.
ZEUS
We need soldiers on front windows.
ZETA COMMANDER
When I tell you to synchronously
pull out.
ZEUS
Shouldn't we do it in a graduated
manner.
ZETA COMMANDER
Negative they far enough away so
you all have enough time dive on
the transport.
ZEUS
Good then we leave none behind.
More enemy soldiers are firing at the building.
ZETA COMMANDER
It arrives in 10 seconds. EVERYBODY
GO NOW!
(Asteroid Jockey)
Everybody holed up in the building including Zeus sprint into
the rail launcher.
The hatch seals and off and everybody in the container are
all slammed into one side of it as it accelerates off.

SUB SKY COMMANDER 1
We can divert the next asteroid and
send in more dolphins.
GENERAL 1
Do not do that we need to take out

SOMEONEBODY 4
What the fuck are you saying we are
going to die in here.
(Asteroid Jockey)

Shit I think this means we just
lost the war.
HERMES
Not yet we'll just have to
concentrate on extracting and
refining everything in the outer
reaches of the solar systems.
PERSEPHONE
But if we retreat further from
Earth their forces will overwhelm
us.
HERMES
We must concentrate on capturing
their flagship while holding our
own.
SWITCH UP BRIEFING
INT. ZEUS'S HOME
TITAN (ON WALL)
Zeus you really pulled that off
beautifully. Thanks to you we've
got the East on the run.
TITAN (ON WALL)
They've evacuated their civilians
through rail launched shuttles
ahead of their battle fleet then
abandoned their colonies. Their
armada is in a full retreat to the
asteroid belt.
ZEUS
So we've won the war. Can I retire
now?
TITAN (ON WALL)
We haven't won the war yet. There
is a lot more in the asteroid belt
then there is on the moon. They
will lick their wounds and muster
their reinforcements so that they
shall have enough strength to crush
our fleet. Once they turn around
they will take the Earth.
ARTEMIS
Oh god.
TITAN (ON WALL)
That is why we need you 2 for 1
more mission. If we can take their
flagship, the Krakatau, while we
hold ours, the Liberty, we can win
to capture the resources of both
fleets and have enough forces to
take their fledgling asteroid
refinement facilities.
ARTEMIS
Then can he retire, while he is
still alive.
TITAN (ON WALL)
The war will be over so yes.
