Halo: The Movie- Script 1
This script's basic idea was taken from Kellen Squires' Script on http://halo.bungie.org/misc/halothemoviescript.html
Halo music plays, screen is dark. Then the screen lightens slightly, showing a UNSC fleet hovering in blank space. Then suddenly a shadow of dark covenant ships hovering in the dark, with a green glow surrounding them. Moments later, it is gone and the ships light up and flick the shields on.
Characters: UNSC Officers, Commander Biggs, Cortana, Cpt. J. Keyes.
UNSC Officer #1: (to Commander Briggs, slightly stuttering) Sssir... um... we're getting ssssomething on the rrradar.
Commander Briggs: Dang son, calm yourself. It's just... oh God. OH MY GOD!!!! ALERT! ALERT! INCOMING COVENANT DESTROYERS! HEAVILY ARMED! CARRY OUT COLE PROTOCOL!!!!
Bridge lights start flashing, people are running and typing fastly.
UNSC officer #2:(crackly)Briggs, sir, we got your transmission, we're activating our Slip Space engines. Start yours up too sir.
Briggs: (to officer #1) son, get the guns online and contact the Pillar of Autumn.
Zooms out to show Keyes in his ship.
Captain Jacob Keyes: You rang, sir?
Briggs: Keyes, get ready to get your best men to---. Static.
Keyes: Briggs? Briggs??? Oh No. Cortana, get the ship on high alert and get ready to enter slip space and heat up the MAC guns.
Cortana: On it sir.
The camera zooms out to show the Autumn in all its glory, being followed by Covenant destroyers, guns steaming and glowing. Autumn dissapears into a green split in space. The covenant look confused, but follow suit also. Blackness.
Characters: Keyes, Cortana, Master Chief, Marines, gunner operators, crew members.
Camera Zooms back into the Autumn, hovering over a mysterious moon.
Keyes: Cortana, all I want to know is-
Cortana: Did we lose them? I think we both know the answer to that.
The camera zooms in to the bridge, where we see 2 people sitting in the gunner seats, waiting for commands. We see people sitting by what look like holographic computer screens. Keyes is standing by a holographic figure, Cortana. He is chewing on his pipe end.
Keyes: We made a blind jump... how did they-
Cortana: Get here before us? Captain Keyes, the Covenant have always been faster than us. And as for tracking us all the way from Reach, at lightspeed, my maneuvering options were limited.
Keyes walks over to one of the crew members and peers at the ships vitals.
Keyes: We were running dark, yes?
Cortana: Yes, sir, until we decellerated. *No one* could have missed the hole we tore in subspace.
Cortana: The Covenant are on the far side of the planet, sir. They were waiting for us. There was nothing you could do.
Keyes: (waves a dissmissal gesture)Where do we stand?
Cortana: Our fighters are mopping up their recon picket right now. (Keyes nods)But I've isolated approach signatures from multiple CCS-class battlegroups... make it... three or four capital ships per group. And in about, oh, ninety seconds they'll be all over us.
Keyes: (curses under his breath)Well, that's it, then. Bring the ship back up to Combat Alert Alpha. I want everyone at their stations.
Cortana: Aye, aye, sir... everyone?
Keyes: Everyone. Oh- and Cortana?
Cortana: Hmm?
Keyes: Let's give our old friend a warm welcome.
Cortana smiles.
Cortana: I've already begun.
The camera pans out of the window to show a big "hula hoop." Halo.
that is part of my script im still working on it!
