ALT.BABYLON.UK 5 START UP SEQUENCE

Simon: It was begining of a new age in mankind's history books, the third one. Fourteen years after the Earth-Minbari war. alt.babylon5.uk had failed - we were in the middle of one of the most fierce wars that was tearing the universe to shreads - and they still came. The Babylon Project gave way to a new hope, the hope that the number of test threads would be dramatically reduced. The year: 2272, the name of the place is alt.babylon5.uk.

::Cue Music...::

1. Suzzizwu's bedroom
::Suzziiwu gets up.::

SUZZIIWU
Oh - I REALLY gotta get to work now...

HUNT
Just one more time.

SUZZIIWU
I'd love to but I've already missed out on all the profound and worthwhile lines - I'd like to say something interesting before the episode is out.

HUNT
Okay - but make sure that we have one more sex scene before the end of this episode!

SUZZIIWU
Okay - but nothing TOO graphical. Just the upper body stuff.

HUNT
You take ALL the fun out of my scenes...

2. Customs\Shuttlebay
Callum walks out of the entrance, he's still pretty dazed!

NOBLE
Hello crew. I expect you ALL to remain calm after this recent crisis.

::He falls backwards onto the floor.::

3. Down Below

NUDD
You realise that Dave and Chaz are still hungry - they're going to be here soon - and you're going to be in a LOT of trouble. When they are hungry they eat the bits which cause you the most pain first, they slowly nibble at your arms and bite into your neck. In fact you will probably be slowly eaten for an hour or two.

STEEVIE
Perhaps I CAN help you in someway. If you're looking for money, I have lots of it!

NUDD
Somehow I think that it won't matter to you whether you survive now. My friends have found a way to track all the movements of your CO - he won't survive the next attack.

::Spooky Music::

4. Steevie's Room

::Chime::

BRACK
Hello - this is Andrew Brack, I asked to speak with you earlier. Hello. This is Andrew Brack - I need that information...

::The door slides open and Brack gasps when he sees the body of John Ward::

5. Sickbay

BRACK
Will Mr. Ward be allright?

MR. ZATHRAS 50%
He'll be fine. The shot missed his vital organs. A few more hours though and he would have bled to death.

BRACK
According to Psi Corps regulations I *NEED* to ask you for approval BEFORE I do a deep scan. Can I?

MR. ZATHRAS 50%
What would that accomplish?

BRACK
Perhaps seeing the shot would help me figure out what the hell is going on.

MR. ZATHRAS 50%
Fine. Just out of interest, how DO you scan someone with next to no brain activity.

BRACK
Normally I'd ask for an assistant or two but I need this information quickly.

::The doors slide open and Suzziiwu and Roderick Hunt enter::

BRACK
Speak of the devils...

::They walk across to Zathras::

HUNT
We are here for our weekly checkups.

BRACK
I *KNOW* what you're thinking - OK, you can come into his mind too...

6. Mind Scan
Steevie's Room

STEEVIE
Listen - your plan failed - I want out - you're getting more careless - people are getting suspicious.

NUDD
OK - you're out.

STEEVIE
What?

NUDD
Could you get me a tissue?

STEEVIE
Sure.

::He bends over and is shot with a PPG, the same then happens to Ward.::

::The camera drops to the floor::

WARD
Shot by Shadow Contact REALLY won't look good on my resume!

::We pan round to Brack::

BRACK
The SHADOWS! They're aboard...

::Tense Music::

7. CGI - Gate Sequence

8. Command Central

GUARD #001
Sir - something's comin' through the gate!

BATTY
Let's see it...

::We cut to a short shot of a group of four shadow ships::

BATTY
Sir - shall we go to Battle Ready Status?

NOBLE
Yes - Do it quick number one.

9. CGI Effect - Battle Arms Deployment

10. CGI Effect - Shadow\Station Battle
Both sides fight well and hard but at the final moment a singular ship breaks through but is hit. Under minimal speed they fire and dodge return shots and suddenly disappear.

11. Command Central

BATTY
Great - they've broken through and - vanished!

::Horrifying Music::

CORWIN
Sir - reports of something killing people left right and centre in the docking bay.

BATTY
Contact MarkWCats - tell him to get down their with some guard at once.

12. The Sex Scene - Suzziiwu's Room

SUZZIIWU I love you.

::They kiss::

HUNT I love you too!

::They kiss::

SUZZIIWU I love you more.

::She unbuttons her shirt and Roderick starts licking her chest::

SUZZIIWU That feels GOOD! YES! YES!! YESS!!!!!

13. Sickbay

MR ZATHRAS 50%
He's better.

BRACK
Let's go - we need all the help I can get in finding Steevie...

14. Docking Bay
Civilians are running around screaming as a group of highly trained soldiers run in with guns blazing.

MARKWCATS
Shoot at the one on the left. You can see the outline of where he is. Shoot him - SHOOT HIM.

::Dave whacks five security guards out of the way and grabs Security Guard VI::

SECURITY GUARD VI
Now listen here - you don't want to kill me.

::He shoots but drops his gun::

15. Down Below

JOHN WARD
This is where Steevie often meets -

::They spot him and untie him::

STEEVIE
They're after Noble and Batty - they plan to kill us ALL!

16. Docking Bay
Chaz and Dave quickly walk around killing everyone they come across.

LURKERS I + II
AAGH!!

::they are eaten quickly::

MARKWCATS
Hold it together men - hold them off.

::Chaz walks and pins MARKWCATS, preparing to eat him, suddenly Chaz ::slips and falls to the floor::

MARKWCATS
Mr. BRACK???

BRACK
Sorry I took so long - I was just wondering whether it was worth my effort saving you.

MARKWCATS
::Screams:: GET OUT OF HERE! Fall back! GET OUT!

::John Ward runs screaming at Dave shooting::

::Dave steps to the side and John carries on, straight into the pillar::

::Dave is suddenly floored as Ian Molton stands in the doorway, holding a pistol::

MOLTON
I was standing here, and I just happened to make my finger slip - it hit the trigger and - what can I say?

MARKWCATS
Nothing Mr. Molton - Nothing!

- FIN -
