Scene Begin
Ext. Automic Purposing Facility, Lobby Central Courtyard, Newtown, Azminacan, 53 state in the Union, 2029, 0239 hours
Focus on Courtyard front wall. AGENTS DYCKUS and SARDI stand watch, not flinching as a loud explosion is heard behind them and charred robotics flies through the main doors, apparently unfazed. Helicopters fly overhead and in the distance, searchlights scouring the desert wastes of Newtown County. Over the comm relay, CONSTABLE NATHANIEL is heard giving orders to the copters.
NATHANIEL: (V.O.)
...another flyover, then a thorough ground search.
Dyckus puts his hand to his helmet, activating his commlink.
DYCKUS:
How're things on your end, Indo?
Cut to TEAM INDO, in particular JACRED SHYRT, walking through darkened hallways, deep underground. Screams are heard in the background, and each man has their gun primed.
JACRED:
So far, nothin. Few survivors, we sent em to the lift fore the chains broke.
DYCKUS: (V.O.)
Broke?
JACRED:
How much ya betting the deranged coffee grinder is behind all this?
SARDI: (V.O.)
Lily? I wouldn't think it, she has no dangerous tools. She's a psychologist.
JACRED:
Just a suggestion, you know damn well there's more than one of those freaks. Which one, I D K, but I - wait hold on?
SARDI: (V.O.)
Come again?
JACRED:
There's somebody,
Cut to Dyckus and Sardi looking at each other.
JACRED: (V.O.)
It looks like - oh gosh, OPEN FIRE!! (screams are heard, along with nasty squelching noises, loud thuds, and a large boom as Nathaniel collides with something. Comm cuts off)
Dyckus and Sardi are in disbelief, and quickly draw their rifles as a sound behind them alerts the pair. Noises emanate from the factory depths, and the military teams inside shout over each other in fear.
RHODE COM: (V.O.)
FACILITY'S SHAKIN?
PHOENIX COM: (V.O.)
LAVA! LAVA IN FLOOR X, RISING STEADILY!! WE NEED TO GO!
ELDER COM: (V.O.)
LAVA ON FLOOR Y, TEAM AND I ARE SURROUNDED, WERE DOOMED!!
DAO COM: (V.O.)
MY TEAM'S DEAD, CORNERED BY - AUGH!! IT BURNS!!! AAAU- (DAO COM'S radio cuts out)
DYCKUS:
This is not good.
Dyckus and Sardi watch in horror as the facility shakes violently, a massive sinkhole opens underneath, dropping the massive underground structure into the lake of fire and killing everyone inside. The lava scorches floors as high as Floor D.
Shaken, Dyckus strides closer to the pit, rifle raised. He jumps back in fear as the dismembered head of Jacred Shyrt flies out of the hole and lands before him.
Suddenly, a shadowy figure lunges from the depths , landing just feet in front of Dyckus.
DYCKUS:
HOLY CRAP?! SARDI, OPEN FIRE!!
Dyckus lets out a scream as a long, flexible metal hose impales his leg and drains his entire body of blood. Sardi, terrified, fires on the attacker, in vain.
The being launches right past her. Stopping as a circular saw protruding from its arm drips in blood. Sardi's two halves drop to the ground.
The figure switches for a rocket launcher, firing on a nearby helicopter with deadly accuracy. The missile hits, vaporizing the front half, sending Nathaniel and the rest of the people aboard into the deserts below.
Pan slowly up the figure as whip-like metal chords fly around the figure, tucking into pockets. Plates on the being's arms slide into place, concealing the weapons underneath. When we reach the face, we get the first good look at the killer. Black hair tied back in a small ponytail. Pale skin, red glowing eyes over a black blindfold. It grins sadistically.
AGONIST the Automa.
End.
I posted the screenplay because I may never get around to making the actual animation. Hope you enjoy this pilot.
