	Message: : I only started a few days ago, and I might do an M2 script when this is done. : UPDATE: I changed the BOB sequence in order to Leela's exit terminal, and : added the sequence of events for Bigger Guns Nearby. : 18 INT. HANGAR 7 CONTROL ROOM : A pair of Fighters pace back and forth, chattering impatiently. : *CLANG* : An armored fist punches through the vent cover in the ceiling overhead, .44 : at the ready. Both Fighters are blown against the wall. : Jones (O.S.): "Let's go!" : He jumps down and assists the BOB as he nervously scrambles through the : opening. The BOB tries the terminal. : BOB: "The systems are functional. Where are we going?" : Jones: "Can it take me to an armory?" : The BOB types a command sequence. : BOB: "Good to go." : The terminal BEEPS. BOB punches another sequence. : Leela (O.S., filtered): "Good, you found a way in. : All of the information that I have gathered so far indicates : that the Alien invasion of the Marathon has been relatively : uncoordinated. I suspect that this is partially due : to the Marathon's large size. : However disorderly the Alien invasion is, their assault of the : Computer Net has been extremely effective. I detect security : breaches in almost every computer system onboard the Marathon; : I have learned that there is an Alien creature that is capable : of interfacing with our systems. : You must kill any of these creatures that you find. It is a : priority that we stop them. Even now, they are penetrating my : defenses." : Jones: "Guess we'll have to stop them, then." : BOB: "Mind if I stay here?" : Jones: "You sure?" : The BOB nods and pulls a pistol out of a locker beside the terminal. After a : moment Jones stands on the jump pad and disappears in a TV snow-like : teleport effect. : 19 INT. TUNNEL : Jones appears in a reverse of the effect we just saw. A Pfhor Fighter attacks : almost immediately. Rather than waste ammo, Jones swings back and punches : the Fighter. Yellow goo splatters all over. : Jones: "Contents under pressure, do not puncture." : He chuckles sardonically and does the same to the next pair, before logging : onto another of those omnipresent terminals. : Leela (O.S., filtered): "Glad you're still alive." : Jones: "I hear that there are bigger guns nearby." : Leela (O.S., filtered): "Indeed. I am now in contact with a number of : colonists planetside, but : their reports on the situation below are conflicting and : obviously exaggerated. The primary medium-range radio antenna : has been disabled or destroyed, which makes communication : extremely difficult. : The only thing which seems clear is that the spaceport was : obliterated by low-yield nuclear weapons minutes after the : attack on the Marathon began. This I can verify through my : own optical instruments. : The invaders seem to be more interested in the Marathon than : the colony, at least in the short term. The motives behind : their unprovoked attack are still unknown, however. : As for the bigger guns, there are MA-75 assault rifles in the lockers : here." : She highlights a spot on the floorplan beside the text. : "I can't teleport you from here, so you will need to find another : terminal to leave this area. Be careful; the doors and elevators in this : part of the ship are malfunctioning." : Jones: "Thanks for the update. I'll be in touch." : Leela (O.S., filtered): "Acknowledged." : 20 INT. ARMORY : GUNS and AMMO on racks all around the room. We hear the now-familiar sound of : the .44 heralding Jones' arrival. He grabs an MA-75 ASSAULT RIFLE off the : rack, loads a clip and grenade cylinder, racks the bolt, and grabs all the : ammo he can carry. : The MA-75 is a dual-purpose weapon, looking like a cross between the Armat : M-41A from Aliens and the H&K XM29 OICW. The primary mode is a 52-round : box-fed, fully automatic 7.62mm AR, with an integral seven-round : cylinder-fed 30mm grenade launcher, also automatic, underneath. : 21 EXT. FIRING RANGE-FLASHBACK : Flashback sequence: We see PVT. JONES, a man in his early 20s, standing in : line with a group of similar soldiers. A UESC DRILL SERGEANT is explaining : the use of the MA-75. : Sarge: "It's a noisy toy designed to impress pompous old generals, with : way too much muzzle climb and a recoil akin to that of wrestling a greased : pig. Speaking of grease, the lubricants are also crap which means no : firing in a vacuum. Still, it's not totally useless and it's all we're : getting, so..." : 22 INT. CORRIDOR : Jones moves along a dark, dingy corridor, rifle raised. : 23 INT. MAINTENANCE ACCESS : One of those places where most rarely go. Jones spots a pair of computer : terminals and breaths a sigh of relief. : *ZAP!* : The relief is short-lived as several S'pht swoop in. Jones takes a hit before : he raises the MA-75 and FIRES. The rifle is extremely loud, with a muzzle : flash to rival that of the M-56A2 smartgun seen in Aliens. : The S'pht fritz and vaporize one after another. After sweeping for more : opponents, Jones goes to one of the terminals and contacts Leela. : Leela: (O.S., filtered): "Hello, again. I have the update as promised. : The Marathon's automated defenses were disabled during the : initial attack by a directed magnetic pulse. The aliens used : the same weapon to disable Durandal and Tycho, and to : severely damage myself. : Since Durandal is responsible for controlling the ship's autonomous : functions, doors, life support, kitchens, air reprocessors and : stairs are increasingly unreliable. Because he is non-functional, I am : working to assume as many of these tasks as possible. Tycho controls : the science and engineering network, which I am also attempting to operate. : Now that you are better armed, our first priority is to : reactivate the Marathon's defenses, under my control, so that : we may offer some resistance to the aliens. I have built : three replacement circuit boards for the defense system, but : cannot move them from the manufacturing center without : assistance. : I will now transport you to retrieve the replacement parts, : and will give you further instructions when you arrive." : Jones: "Got it." : He steps onto the JUMP PAD and beams out.
