RAY stands there in frozen shock and awe. He is looking down and then looks up. We cant see what he is looking at it but we can hear something approach him. There is a hissing and Hyena type yelp. RAY
immediately turns and runs for the door. There is a howling unearthly scream. SUDDENLY as RAY reaches the door he is stopped dead in his tracks by a
long thick Dragon type tail which grabs his leg. RAY falls and is dragged away from the door. RAY screams.
INT. CONTROL ROOM. NIGHT
RAVEL looks at his monitor which is showing live footage from the Cargo Bay. He looks closer and spots some weirdly shaped black monster standing over RAY.
RAVEL
Guys!
INT. CARGO BAY. NIGHT
RAY is lying on the ground looking up at the unseen creature. A long black, hairy and slimy tentacle like rod which has a very sharp pointy edge. Wrapped around this Tentacle are small see through greyish veins. It stabs into his chest. RAY screams out in agony. Seven more of these Tentacle like rods appear and stab down all over his body. RAY’S blood can be seen being sucked up through the tentacles veins. We can now see the back of the monsters head as it leans down and comes face to face with RAY. The back of it’s head is long, thick, slimy and hairy and shaped like a cigar.
EXT. PROMETHEUS. NIGHT
The Cargo Bay rises from the ground with the door still open. It is then attached to the Belly of the ship.
INT. CARGO BAY CORRIDOR. NIGHT
CHANCE and JOSHUA stand at each side of the Cargo Bay door. Both men have pistols. HOLLOWAY is now out of his wheelchair and is walking using a cane and MUDOW’S arm for support. SHAW stands next to them. VICKERS and a seemingly fit and healthy MILBURN have flame throwers and they are both standing next to FIFIELD, JANEK and RAVEL.
INT. CARGO BAY. NIGHT
The door opens and CHANCE and JOSHUA storm inside with their pistols raised. They look around and find only blood stains on the floor. SHAW, MUDOW and HOLLOWAY appear at the doorway.
CHANCE then notices RAY; he is cocooned and dangling from the ceiling. As we look closer at him we can see a large hole in the centre of his face.
Suddenly there is a hissing and screeching noise and the large eight foot tall MONSTER jumps from the ceiling pipes and lands on the ground. It looks over at them. It has no eyes, nose or even mouth. It’s face looks like a closed human fist. It has eight long Tentacles, a large dragon like tail and eight strange spider like legs which resemble human like fingers.
It has four organic pipe like tubes on it’s back.
CHANCE
Kill it!
Both JOSHUA and CHANCE begin firing their pistols at it. The MONSTER scurries away and hides around the corner of one of the two Rovers. CHANCE and JOSHUA run to the Rover and split up. VICKERS and MILBURN enter with their flame throwers. JOSHUA walks around the side of the Rover and he is immediately attacked by the MONSTER. The eight Tentacles strike him everywhere around the chest and they pulls him forward toward the MONSTER. JOSHUA looks up at it in horror. The MONSTERS fist like face opens like a hand. The inside of the MONSTERS face looks like a female sexual organ with a small hole in the centre. SUDDENLY a hairy, slimy, black spike like hose appears from the hole. It shoots out from the hole like a bullet and strikes JOSHUA in the face with force.
CHANCE arrives behind the MONSTER and begins firing at it while yelling out. The MONSTER drops JOSHUA and turns to face CHANCE.
MILBURN arrives by CHANCE and pushes him out of the way. He then fires his flame thrower and the MONSTER is soon engulfed in flames. It screeches out in pain and pushes MILBURN out of the way and speeds for the open ramp and falls off the edge.
CHANCE rushes over to JOSHUA and checks his body.
CHANCE
Shit. Sorry buddy
MILBURN begins choking and falls to his knees.
SHAW and HOLLOWAY arrive at the side of the ROVER and stand over MILBURN. MILBURN begins screaming out in unearthly screeches. He lunges out at HOLLOWAY and throws him against the wall. He then hits SHAW causing her to fall to the ground. He then turns to CHANCE and runs for him.
MILBURN has CHANCE pinned to the ground and begins punching down hard smashing through CHANCE’S helmet smashing it. MILBURN hits CHANCE on the face more than a dozen times till CHANCE’S face and skull is flattened.
HOLLOWAY limps over to MILBURN and hits him on the HELMET smashing it. MILBURN lunges up at HOLLOWAY and pins him to the wall. MILBURN opens his mouth and his mutated tongue comes out. His tongue is long and brown with green dots. Suddenly the bottom of his chin rips open and MILBURN sticks the tongue into HOLLOWAY’S mouth and down his neck. HOLLOWAY begins choking. SHAW reaches for CHANCE’S pistol and aims it at MILBURN and begins firing. MILBURN roars as he backs away.
SHAW
Get out of here!
A gasping HOLLOWAY crawls away. SHAW fires several more shots but this time hitting MILBURN in the right side of his head blowing it off but he doesn’t die. He looks at SHAW before running toward her. immediately drops the pistol and climbs into the ROVER and closes the door.
INT. ROVER. NIGHT
SHAW screams in panic as something bangs against the door.
INT. CARGO BAY. NIGHT
FIFIELD is standing next to the ROVER. He spots SHAW climbing into the cockpit.
FIFIELD
Shaw what’s happening?
SUDDENLY MILBURN appears on the roof of the ROVER and looks down at FIFIELD. It then jumps off the roof toward FIFIELD and lands on him pinning him to the ground. VICKERS arrives by them with her flame thrower.
VICKERS
Get back! Get away!
VICKERS points her flame thrower. JANEK rushes over to her.
JANEK
No! Fifields in the way! Vickers, DONT SHOOT!
VICKERS fires and the wall of burning hot flame engulfs both FIFIELD and MILBURN. FIFIELD rolls around screaming whilst the Monstrous MILBURN screeches out and runs over to the side of Rover and tries to climb up to get away from the fire. It then moves around the back of the Rover.
INT. ROVER. NIGHT
SHAW pulls back the lever and reverses the ROVER.
INT. CARGO BAY. NIGHT
The rover reverses hitting MILBURN and running over his twisting turning body. She then hits the Rover into the other one. MILBURN crawls out of the ROVER and approaches the ramp. It is no longer on fire. It is however burnt and charred and it’s limbs are broken and mangled. It turns to face the ROVER. The ROVER speeds forward and hits MILBURN sending him flying backwards off from the ramp.
SHAW climbs out of the ROVER and joins the others and the 7 survivors meet each other in the centre of the room.
JANEK
We’ll bury the dead and then we’ll get out of here. Any objections?
SHAW
We can’t leave
JANEK
What?
SHAW
That thing, this alien or Terraformer. It’s going to take those weapons David was talking about back to Earth and kill everything. We have to stop it. You all have to stop it. It’s going to punish us
JANEK
Listen we can’t stop that thing. We don’t have any kind of weapons apart from a few flame throwers and a dozen pistols.
SHAW
Then we kill the pilot. We have to Janek, we don’t have a choice. Everything and everyone is in danger here. We have to kill it.
JANEK
Okay. We’ll kill it. What’s the plan?
SHAW
I’m going out. Any volunteers would be nice.
JANEK
I’m going
SHAW
No you need to stay here with the ship. David will you come with me?
DAVID
Yes
HOLLOWAY
