Jon Spaihts: Prometheus

EXT. LANDSCAPE. DAWN

VICKERS

Run!

Both she and SHAW begin running as large pieces of debris from the Prometheus begin crashing down around them like comets. The large towering Derelict crashes down with it’s two Dubai tower sized arms crashing into the ground and then the Giant Alien craft rolls to it’s side and eventually rests on it’s belly.

Both SHAW and VICKERS both are thrown to the ground due to the heavy shock wave.

An explosion of flame and plasma rips through the holes of the craft and the craft breaks apart and tumbles to the surface like a ton of rocks.

From a birds eye P.O.V we get the full picture of the damage and havoc this epic colossal crash has done.

SHAW walks around the wreckage and smoke and flames and confronts VICKERS.

VICKERS

You made it

SHAW

We’re the only one’s left?

VICKERS nods her head.

SHAW

What do we do now?

VICKERS

The Rovers undamaged so I suggest we find somewhere safe to rest up and wait

SHAW

Where will we go and wait for what?

VICKERS

I’ve got my universal broadcasting computer. We find somewhere where I can get signal and I’ll send an S.O.S

The two women head toward the Rover.

EXT. NAZCA LINES. DAWN

The Rover speeds through the road at high speed.

INT. ROVER. DAWN

The two women sit inside the cockpit.

EXT. ROVER. DAWN

The Rover drives over sharp rocks and one of the tires burst.

INT. ROVER. DAWN

VICKERS

God damn it!

SHAW

Stop over there!

EXT. WATERFALL. DAWN

The Rover comes to a stop near the large waterfall.

INT. ROVER. DAWN

VICKERS sighs and turns to face SHAW.

VICKERS

The wheels busted. Just going to go and check it

As VICKERS climbs out of the Rover she leaves behind her large bag. SHAW looks over at the bag and unzips it.

EXT. WATERFALL. MORNING

VICKERS stands outside the Rover checking the wheel. She kneels down by it and studies it.

INT. ROVER. DAWN

SHAW brings out a laptop type computer and turns it on. She finds it has received a message. She clicks on it and it reads:

ELIMINATE ANY POTENTIAL EXPENDABLE THREAT

SECURE ALIEN SPECIMEN AND TECHNOLOGY

REPLY EXACT CO-ORDINATES FOR EXTRACTION

SHAW closes the laptop type computer and looks around. She then finds a steel container inside the bag and brings it out and opens it. She gasps in shock and places her hand to her mouth. She swallows her emotions and she leans forward and looks once more inside the box.

The box is revealed to be an incubator for the mutated alien hybrid baby which is being kept alive. SHAW’S expression turns to rage. She grabs the pistol which is next to the flame thrower.

EXT. WATERFALL. DAWN

SHAW exits the vehicle and walks over to VICKERS. SHAW is standing only several metres behind VICKERS. She has the pistol aimed at her.

SHAW

It was you

VICKERS

What?

VICKERS stands up, turns and faces SHAW.

SHAW

I know what you’re trying to do. Take specimens and artefacts back to Earth

VICKERS

Shaw think about what you’re doing. I’m the only one who can send for help. Put the gun down

SHAW

What are you planning on doing with my baby?

VICKERS

You’re baby?

SHAW

I said what!

VICKERS

It’s an important specimen

SHAW

I’m sorry Vickers

SHAW shoots VICKERS three times in the chest. She falls to the ground dead. As SHAW walks away VICKERS suddenly appears and attacks SHAW pinning her to the ground. A startled SHAW is then shocked to see white fluid pouring out of the bullet wounds. VICKERS begins choking SHAW.

SHAW reaches for her boot and pulls out a knife and she drives the blade into the side of VICKERS head. VICKERS rolls off and begins going into a spasm. SHAW runs over to the ROVER and grabs the flame thrower from the cockpit. She turns to see VICKERS standing up with the pistol.

SHAW aims the flame thrower and fires engulfing VICKERS in fire. VICKERS falls backwards and falls off the cliff. SHAW drops the weapon and brings out the box from the cockpit. She opens the box and brings out the Terraformer/human hybrid baby and takes it to the edge of the cliff. SHAW then sits at the edge of the cliff with the baby in her arms. It is moving and making high pitched squeals and moans. SHAW embraces it tightly. She rocks back and forth looking down at it’s white beady eyes. She then starts crying and smiling at the same time.

Our view begins to drift away from Shaw and her baby.

SHAW’S NARRATION

So in the end God said Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the Earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground

Our view backs away from the waterfall and we get a view of the far away landscape, the atmosphere and the moons and large Planet above.

EXT. ZEUS. SPACE

Our view backs away from Zeus and we move around the large Saturn type planet. We then zoom our sight onto another Planetoid. We get closer to it and it is clear that this is a baron lifeless rock.

EXT. PLANETOID. NIGHT

The atmosphere is primordial and its lava based rocky landscape fills as far as the eye can see. As we hove over this baron landscape we come across a very identical vessel. It’s ‘U’ shape in size and is sitting on a plain of rocky cliffs. We move closer to it and we enter one of three large holes.

INT. DERELICT. NIGHT

We are passing through a long bone shapes and dark slimy corridor. We then face upward and see an entrance into a large oval shapes room.

INT. ORRERY. NIGHT

We are now in the identical room which was found on the previous ‘U’ shaped craft but instead the four Sarcophagus’s are not present. We approach the large Pilot chair in which a dead Terraformer sits dressed in it’s suit and helmet. As we get closer we can see a large gaping hole on it’s chest. We slowly back away from it and look down at the platform not far from it and there is a large hole caused by some kind of acid.

There is an unearthly hissing and breathing noise.

Our view looks up and we are looking at the face of some very nasty organism. It snarls and it’s teeth open wide revealing a smaller inner jaw which shoots from inside it’s mouth and hits our view.
