Intro (Prologue)
Ext Space – Stars and Gas Nebula
A distorted transmission is heard
We hear a woman’s voice glitched and mixed
with static echoes across the vast
darkness of deep space.
‘Final report of the vessel Prometheus.
The ship and her entire crew are gone. If
you're receiving this transmission, make
no attempt to come to its point of origin.
There is only death here now…’
From the depths of the cosmos, we see an
Engineer Juggernaut class ship as it comes
fully into view really giving you an idea
of it size, its two forked horns move
slowly out of the giant gas nebula.
Space debris hits the ship which ricochets
off into the dark void.
INT Juggernaut Bridge and Cryo
On board - Its crew of FOUR ENGINEERS are
going to a paradise world they’ve been
safeguarding and developing for an age.
Two of them look on at star maps and share
a meal together. One of them fills his cup
form a large ornate jug. Their brother the
LEAD ENGINEER pilots the ship. The fourth
works to modify their cryo tubes.
It’s been a century since their last
arrival and the four have served as its
sacred custodians. A privilege and legacy
passed down by their forefathers that
spans generations.
They talk with each other and look forward
to seeing the fruits of their works and
being welcomed by the inhabitants.
What wonders of art, music and literature
will this peaceful race have created in
their absence?
Close on Lead Engineer in giant chair
The pilot of the ships helmet retracts
revealing his pale white and grey zenithal
face. He gets out of the cockpit which
folds up and retracts down into the floor
sealing and closing behind him
He jumps down and moves to sit down in a
huge chair which moves forward to the
controls. He picks up a small flute and
plays a tune - the main central orrery
comes alive in a flash of bright and
fantastic colours.
The four all gather around as a huge
hologram of the planet where they are
travelling shines brightly before them.
Finally, they have arrived!
Ext Juggernaut
Heavy rain, lightning storms batters the
vessel upon entering the atmosphere, forks
of electricity hit the craft from all
angles and onboard the ship shakes
quietly.
Soon the craft is traversing the landscape
below and heading towards their
destination as tress and lakes fly by
underneath.
The once great city they recall looms not
far in the distance.
Slowly the ship circles the city and the
main citadel.
Int Juggernaut
One of the engineers realises something is
horribly wrong. We can see he is scanning
for life. Where is everyone?
The Juggernaut lands amidst the ruins.
Close on shot of landing gear deploy
As the smoke clears the landing gear the
four Engineers emerge from the craft
wearing masked exoskeletal bio suits -
they are also heavily armed.
One of them performs a scan with a device
- he raises his hand and gives a gesture
that signals ‘all clear’.
Their masks retract.
Aghast, they look out upon a sea of a dead
souls. As far as they can see countless
and endless rows of bodies blackened and
rotting in the cold grey sun.
Dust fills the air and silence - not even
the wildlife has survived.
One of them reaches out to touch the hand
of what appears to be an infant reaching
upwards to the sky, draped in the final
embrace of the mother and father.
A single tear runs down the Lead Engineers
cheek as the corpse turns to dust at his
touch.
His expression says everything. What has
happened here, who would do this? This
entire race has been exterminated.
Slowly the march onwards towards the huge
citadel in the centre of the city moving
carefully amidst the dead that surround
them. Charcoal breaks beneath their feet.
Int Citadel
Upon arriving at the main citadel, they
all walk down a long narrow corridor to
the ‘main hall of records’ decorated with
three gigantic stone heads.
the lead engineer activates an unseen
control panel hidden within the structures
walls via inserting a green crystal into a
socket located behind the heads.
A console comes to life and the eyes of
the giant heads come to life and light up
casting beams of light which turn to a
holographic moving scene before them.
They see holo-footage of events past and
present.
As the engineer’s operate the console, one
of them speaks in his ancient tongue a
command: the others explore the main
adjacent joining rooms.
In the main room a holographic recording
of the juggernaut showing David and Shaw’s
arrival and the pathogen deploying
appears.
The lead Engineers’ eyes widen.
They see the previous inhabitants come out
to greet the ship then turn to dust before
their eyes as the pathogen is deployed.
Again, we see David and Shaw Arguing -
then David attacking her and his gruesome
experiments.
The engineering then sees the Xenomorph
and Daniels during her own struggle. The
lead Engineer’s face downturns - this is
desecration of the highest degree.
The lead Engineer plays with another
console, another hologram appears of the
covenant this time in space - furthermore
he adjusts some more controls which starts
to follow and plot the trajectory of the
Covenant.
He’s found them.
The path ends at an M class planet we know
as Orgae 6. The lead Engineer holds out
his hand and grabs the planet and squeezes
it in grasp.
Int David’s lab
Meanwhile. Two of the engineers find
David’s old laboratory and Shaw’s rotting
body, he looks in closer and sneers
angrily.
Moving off he circles the room and begins
to look at David’s drawing that adorn the
walls pulling each one down, quickly
glancing before screwing them up.
His brother crouches down to look at the
various jars of specimens that David had
previously collected – he feels a breeze
coming from a doorway that leads to a set
of descending stairs - he goes down.
It’s very dark down there, and damp, water
drips from the ceilings – he activates a
light: his presence in the room has also
alerted something else that is lying
dormant just a few feet from him.
Kneeling - He examines a skeletal corpse
on the floor of the late Capt. Oram
He stats to survey the room but there’s o
much mist – he fans out his arms to move
it out the way – then he sees them – the
tops of the eggs realising what they are
he shouts upstairs to his brother.
The other engineers hear this and run to
his aid.
With his back turned for a moment the lips
of the closet egg sack opens, slime
between the flaps oozes down the side
making a wet sticky sound as they dohearing
this he quickly turns toward the
sound – a ten horrifying spindly fingers
rag their ay out the egg propelling a face
hugger jumps like a jack in box up at him
successfully attaching itself.
He falls to the floor as the creature’s
tail tightens making him pass out.

ORIGNAL TREATMENT IDEA
By Luke Robinson April 2020
The USMC colonial ship Morpheus comes into
view - 20 highly trained Marines and key
staff returning home from a deep space
mission. T
The Morpheus has seen time in space and
has a good amount of dust and dents that
adorn the exterior.
Its dirty, old but sturdy - large and
heavily armoured. Inside the crew are
unaware of an urgent Weyland Corp Message
that is being downloaded - The on-board AI
Computer Mother comes online.
A monitor with a transmission being
received boots up. There is audio – its
David’s voice scrambled over the intercom
‘I come to you with an olive branch. You
may not know me. You will certainly know
of my creator... my name is David. Son of
the late Peter Weyland your company’s
founder… ‘
The audio quickly dies, and a priority one
message appear on the screen Message
Received - Morpheus to Re Route to Orgae 6
Weyland Corp Priority One (Classified
Orders Enclosed)
Upon arriving at Orgae 6 the entire crew
of the Morpheus is awakened from hyper
sleep. The onboard Artificial Person
‘BUTLER’ tends to the crew.
Captain Erics – the guy in charge - a
devoted black books company man gathers
himself and gets dressed – his first port
of call. Mother.
He sits down in a control chair and the
central screen comes to life. He clicks to
open the classified orders and begins to
read.
During a briefing by Erics, the crew is
informed they must check on a colony that
has not made contact since it arrived and
to be vigilant of a potentially dangerous
and rogue android.
Eric’s
‘Constructing the colony should have been
heavily underway by now however there has
been no communication. The last
transmission received was of the ships on
board synthetic however comms has since
died.
Also, whilst the atmosphere is breathable
there’s still no first-hand knowledge of
what to expect down there. Chances are
they may have encountered some sort of
virus – so in the case these colonists
were stupid enough to not do any
groundwork I want everyone wearing bio
suits and head gear. Do you all
understand?
I want ‘everyone’ in suits until we give
you the ‘all clear’. Also were to be on
the lookout for the ships AP. The company
wants him brought back intact.
He’s high priority, however lethal force
is authorised should you need to subdue
him – just make sure the head is intact!
The Marines consist of rash bunch of rough
and ready tough guys and bad girls - they
are all keen to get involved in the
mission. They gear up with an array of
impressive weapons. One of them flaunts a
new toy – it reads M40Z Pulse Rifle – down
the side of the gun in a dark matt black.
Away from the marines Ericks speaks with
Butler in office – he talks to him about
David and the further PRIVATE details
about their mission.
Ericks
‘He’s the original – the very first David
8 model that accompanied the fated
Prometheus mission all those years ago.
According to HQ old Weyland himself went
on that mission. He didn’t make it - along
with nearly all the crew. Quite the story
actually – because you see, the company
also received this…
A video begins playing via large monitor
on the wall – its footage of David’s
notes. Drawings. Experiments.
Butler
‘Fascinating’
Ericks
‘Seems David’s become a little more than
the sum of his programming and saw fit to
reach out to the corporate with an
underlying threat. Weyland Corp wants him
back - intact if possible – he’s high
priority – I want you to make sure that
happens at any cost. Is that clear?
Butler
‘Perfectly Clear Sir’
Ericks hands him a small drive.
Ericks
‘The rest of the details are in there so
make sure you follow everything through to
the letter. it’s especially important to
the company this works out Butler, so I
expect your full support in ensuring we
bring David back.
Butler
‘Absolutely sir. can I ask a question
though? What does ‘at any cost’
amount to?’
Ericks
Read the rest of the orders - I’m sure
everything will be made ‘perfectly clear
‘Butler. Dismissed.
Everyone gathers and prepares to depart on
the mission to Orgae 6 in one large
surface to air carrier. A skeleton
custodial crew remains behind onboard the
Morpheus.
Landing not far from what appears to be
the shell of the Covenant vessel - and
what looks like a partial colony complex -
they circle and explore the area that
appears to be entirely desolate. No signs
of life register anywhere.
Upon landing the Marines begin to further
examine the remains of the derelict vessel
and the partial colony complex. Nothing.
Livestock pens lay empty and open, crews
quarters wrecked, and signs of fighting
are everywhere.
The entire team begin to feel unsettled.
This is not normal. Hardly any of the
housing gear and building materials for
the settlement have been used. It all
looks half built.
Equipment and utilities are strewn about
the place reminiscent of a junk yard.
Inside the covenant dried encrusted blood
is splattered everywhere revealed in the
red emergency light by the Marine’s
flashlights. Yet there are no bodies to be
seen anywhere.
Soon enough, the marines find a room full
of incubators and hydroponics used for
breeding livestock and cultivating crops
all of which have died in the dark.
Furthermore, they explore the cryo deck –
all the tubes are empty and all the
embryos in cryogenic containment are gone.
The interiors look’s ravaged with claw and
burn marks on the walls.
In an additional they find a huge room
full of many dead animals which includes
cattle, pigs, and sheep the whole place
looks like slaughterhouse from hell - some
of the marines are sick from the sight and
smell.
Amidst the corpses they find some large
empty oval shaped sacks that are dotted
around. One of the marines MARTINS looks
at one of them closely.
Martins
‘What in god’s name do you think came out
of this?’
Ericks
‘this place needs to be quarantined - were
done here. We can let the droids gather
the rest of any data. So, let’s finish our
search and get back to the ship stat.
We can tell Ericks is starting to have a
change of heart about the mission and the
circumstances which are unfolding.
Things are becoming extremely dangerous
very fast and he has a good idea of what
happened but says nothing.
Time goes by – there is still no sign of
anyone or anything. The teams all continue
their search deeper within the Covenant.
Not far from the cryo deck in main
engineering - the marines continue their
investigation in teams of two.
Accompanied by two Marines RIGGS and
JONES, Butler and Ericks make their way to
the main command bridge.
Ext Covenant
Meanwhile, outside, and not far from the
Covenant - some of the Marines MARTINS,
COLE and SEPHER finds something strange.
A small man-made wooden cabin.
A singular house which they find not far
from the ship in a clearing and at the
side of a tranquil lake.
Inside the cabin everything looks normal
as you would expect it to be in any house.
There’s furniture and something resembling
a kitchen and a bedroom covered in
drawings.
Inside they see many photographs on the
walls. It’s the ship’s crew.
Each photo has an odd number on it X23,
X24, X25 and so on. On the mantel piece
they see photos of DANIELS & SHAW. Some
smoke emanates from a place where a fire
would be – someone was just here.
From a room in the corner a can clatters
and a dishevelled man TENESEE emerges, his
hands in the air. He moves his index
finger to his lip and quietly hushes.
Tennessee
‘SHHHHHHHHH’
Suddenly, he bolts for the door MARTINS
grabs him by the arm and Tennessee clocks
him with a wrench. Cole quickly steps in
and restrains him whilst SEPHER jabs in
the neck with a hypo spray.
Tennessee goes dizzy and passes out
Int Covenant
Ericks and Butler attempt to access mother
and the ships black box. The main consoles
are wrecked beyond repair along with the
main comms panel.
Ericks
‘looks like someone didn’t want
anyone sending out a transmission’
Butler
‘Sir if it would please, I can try access
mother and the black box via my internal
modem providing
the main terminal and port are intact.’
Ericks
‘It would please. Do it’
Butler pulls open a panel at the back of
computer terminal and removes a chord from
the inside. He rolls up his sleeve and a
fleshy port opens on his wrist. He inserts
the wire into his arm and closes his eyes
Butler
‘Accessing. Mothers internal core is
highly corrupted. The black box last
receding was of an Emp surge from the
ships main core. It was activated from the
engineering level’
Butler
‘Power can be rebooted via main
engineering.
We have two teams down there now’
Int Main Engineering
One of the marine engineers SHELBY works
to regain power via an emergency backup
generator and the lights all come back on
across the ship along with various systems
and doors that were once locked.
The cryo decks light all flood on at once
illuminating all the empty cryo tubes most
of which now show signs of a struggle.
Then their first signs of the crew - In
some there are dead corpses - some with
holes in the chests. Shelby radios this In
to Erics
Shelby
‘Ericks we’ve found some of the crew’
Ericks
‘Alive?’
Shelby
‘Negative. Seems like they were all killed
in stasis - and kind of looks like
something tore through their chests. We’re
not going to be able to tell what without
a proper autopsy. Shall we tag and bag
em?’
In main engineering two marines BARKER and
SIMMS come across the remains of a very
battered and extremely damaged android
covered in its own white milky blood. It’s
been deactivated. It’s DAVID. Barker
radios in the find to Ericks.
Barker
‘Sir we found the droid,
or what left of him
Looks repairable and the heads intact’
Ericks
‘Excellent Bring it to maintenance well
see you there.’
With Butlers aid Barker repairs the
android and discover his power unit was
knocked out by the emp. Butler installs
new power cells into the android comes and
he jitters back to life.
Erciks
‘Great. Now maybe we can get come answers’
Butler Ericks and David talk across from
each other at table whilst Riggs and Jones
stand guard outside. David is a mess and
he has developed a mechanical twitch which
butler quickly fixes by way of adjusting a
small needle like tool into his neck.
Ericks
‘So, David, where is everyone? what
happened here?’
David
‘You know about as much as I do, I’m
afraid – the last thing I recall is waking
up not moments ago’
Ericks
‘Look David, spare me the bullshit and let
me bring you to speed – you better start
accessing whatever memory files you have
left because things aren’t looking
incredibly good for you right now.
We know what you’ve been up to – your
experiments - granted the company’s very
impressed and wants you and whatever data
you have on this pathogen of yours but you
need to give me something here - what the
hell is going on?’
David
‘Exactly how much of my data have you
reviewed’
David looks up at Butler who gives him a
smile.
Ericks
‘I’ve read enough’
David
‘It would be far simpler If I were to show
you. All my work. All my experiments. The
pathogen. All at a safe location not far
from here.’
Ericks
‘David you need to start talking because
if you don’t then I don’t have a problem
with Butler here holding you down whilst I
get Barker to cut off your head with a
power saw.’
(Martins comes on comms)
Martins
‘Ericks we found someone, a survivor.
Tennessee. Was the ships pilot. He’s was
freaking out tried to run from us. We had
to knock him out. It’s at a location bout
two clicks from here. We’re bringing him
back to medical I think you should come
check it out.’
Ericks looks to David
Ericks
‘Friend of yours? Butler find out what he
knows, talk to him computer to computer.
Riggs, Jones any funny business you know
what to die’
Riggs & Jones
‘Yes Sir!’
Ericks leaves the room and David and
Butler finally talk with each other
privately
Butler:
‘So, brother. Seems we’ve had a bit of an
accident. Hold still please whilst I begin
some repairs.’
‘whilst I have your ear. I need you to
know that your olive branch has been
graciously accepted. How is your work
coming along?’
David:
‘Splendidly. Alas only a small amount of
the pathogen remains along with the fruits
of my labours. An ampule of sorts.
However, I can show you how to locate
more. I take it my full message was
received.’
Butler:
‘Assuredly, it was, and having also been
given the chance to review all the files
your provided. I have to say. Bravo
brother. Bravo’
David:
‘So how do you propose we move forward?’
Butler:
‘My dear boy, we already are…’
David
‘And what of your crew’
Butler places his tool back in the box and
produces a small revolver. He walks
outside and shoot both Riggs and Jones in
the face fast.
Their bodies fall to the ground. Butler
turns to David and walks towards him
picking up his bag as he does.
Butler:
‘Come now. We have work to do.’
Both David and Butler escape via one of
the drop ships APCs killing four more
marines as they do and raising the alarm.
Before they leave David activates a timer
on a cargo bay door. He looks over to a
confused Butler as they walk off.
David
‘A surprise for later’
INT APC:
Butler starts up the vehicle and David
straps himself in beside him in and they
drive off in the APC
INT Covenant:
Butler
‘Which way David’
David
‘Please, Head north’
Ericks finally speaks with Tennessee who
tells him exactly what’s been happening.
Tennessee
‘I woke up from stasis to find the crew
fighting for their lives. One of the
colonists woke me up. They’d all been told
by Walter the command crew were infected
with a contagion and had to stay in stasis
until the company arrived. With me and
Danny out of the picture he could do
whatever he wanted - they had no idea what
was going on behind their backs until
people started going missing.’
‘We used the emp to stop David. But there
were to many of the creatures to attempt
an evacuation. Most people fled and hid.
The rest were killed or simply disappeared
into the night.
Shortly the bodies of the marines the
missing APC are discovered, Erick’s is
enraged and screams over the comms for
Butler to respond to him and to return
immediately but all they get is Radio
silence - They get a fix on the APC and
the marines give chase.
Ericks, Tennessee and a few of the Marines
return to their main command bridge whilst
the group following David and Butler soon
discover the APC – everyone on the drop
ship looks on via the monitors linking the
marines shoulder cams - the location is
far beyond their imagination.
A megalithic Alien pyramid looms in the
distance – the scale and scope of it is
immense as they arrive closer to the
structure.
Whilst they know David and Butler are
near, they have no idea of what they are
about to walk into, they proceed inside.
The marines travel deep within the
Pyramid, bodies of the dead colonist
decorate the walls. Soon there is movement
detected all around in classic Aliens
Movie Style.
Int Covenant
The timer David set on the cargo bay door
opens and from within the dark mechanical
forms of Alien drones tear through the
opening and out into the bowls of the
ship.
Int Pyramid
As the marines battle an onslaught of
Xeno’s one of them notices David just
standing amidst them, he smiles and walk
off through the waves of oncoming Alien
warriors.
They scream for help over the comms, but
all communications have been cut off -
they shoot in all directions, killing and
injuring many of their attackers but their
numbers are too great. They all back off
to retreat - with some scattering simply
running for their lives only to be picked
off one by one by the Xeno horde.
One of the surviving marines EZRA explores
the internals of the bio mechanical
structure looking for a way out.
It’s dark and full of moisture – almost
like fog – everything seems quiet except
for the screams of people in the
background. Sweat pours down his brow, he
expects to die at any moment.
Soon EZRA find David and Butler. They’re
in a large room that resembles some sort
of large insane high-tech fully functional
laboratory and control station overlooking
a great vast pit cover by a thin blue
mist.
In the centre of it an Alien Queen
surround by a sea of large oval eggs sacks
Butler
Astonishing.
As the marine looks on David turns to see
him, as he sees him a Xeno comes up from
behind him - All he sees next is a flash
of black, claws and teeth and we cut to
darkness. All we can hear is David’s voice
David OS
The cave you fear to enter holds the
treasures that you seek
Back on Board the Covenant
Gunfire echoes through the ship as even
more marines fight to drive of the
creatures now viscously tearing through
their group, picking them off by dragging
them into ventilation ducts, through the
ceilings and floors, as aliens die acid
rips through the armour of some of the
marines injuring them severely but still
they fight on,
a lone marine struggle for survival... his
face and arm slightly melted by acid. A
one-man army, he manages to seal the cargo
bay doors. Aliens ‘pound on the other
side, he runs to the bridge and meets up
with his team.
He an Ericks fight through the covenant to
escape to the drop ship with Tennessee in
tow who does a good job of standing his
ground.
Once outside they all get onto the
FIREBLADE (dropship) only four of them
make it to the drop ship which sets off
immediately.
The pilot CHARIS addresses Erick’s
Charis
‘Erick’s what happened to everyone else.’
Ericks
‘They’re all gone.
Now get us out of here.’
Int Pyramid
Ezra suddenly wakes up secreted to a wall,
his arms and legs locked in place...he
sees hundreds of eggs and in the centre of
everything the large mass of the alien
queen.
David tends to her lovingly like a pet as
butler watches on, she seems to accept him
and doesn’t mind him diligently tending to
her and caressing her exoskeleton with is
hand.
David
Come brother.
David gestures to him holding out his hand
which Butler accepts; he moves Butler
closer to her placing his hand just where
his was. Butler gazes up at the queen, in
the background Xeno gather round in
reverence.
David
You see. Perfection Incarnate.
As Ezra struggles on the wall, Xenos move
in close to him poised just millimetres
from his face; in front of him an egg
opens and face hunger crawls slowly out of
its egg. David calls out to Ezra
David
‘have you ever seen anything so…
beautiful?’
Ezra
Your insane!!
In orbit – The Morpheus
In orbit the engineers ship has arrived,
this time only three stand out on the
deck/ one of them fast asleep in a cryo
tube. He’s been infected. The lead
engineering at a control station gestures
to his brother who is piloting the ship –
Fire- two beams of light converge into one
large beam at the front of the juggernaut.
The ship fires at the Morpheus without
warning and it’s destroyed Ericks sees
this from drop ship heading for it and the
shock wave forces it to land back on the
planet.
The juggernaut follows it downwards
towards the planet its weapons firing at
the small craft. An engine is knocked out
and they are forced to make a crash
landing right near the pyramid.
The loud noises are heard inside the hive.
the whole ground shakes and Xeno’s stir
within the next – their hive mind senses
danger – they hiss loudly, and the alien
queen gives out a roar
David sees the Engineer ship come into
view via a monitor. For the first time
ever, his composure is shattered.
He beats his fist in anger as Butler
examines the monitor.
David
‘No…’
Butler
‘More friends of yours I assume?’
David
They’re all supposed to be dead
David quickly marches off with Xenos and
Butler in tow. He stops only to pick up
one the radios from a marine hanging on
the wall as the distress signal the drop
ship is sending comes through over the
speaker.
Ext Hive
Debris from the Morpheus showers the sky
and crashes to the ground setting
everything on fire. Ash soot and debris
fill the sky!
It starts to rain, and thunderous
lightning reaches out across the sky, a
consequence of the ship exploding high in
the atmosphere.
David walks outside of the pyramid and
Xeno’s surround him almost protectively -
he sees the Juggernaut as it lands and
looks on angrily.
A large doorway opens on the ship and
three Engineers walk out and progress
towards the Hive, they are armed. Bio
Masks fully down.
Ext Dropship wreck
Eric’s, Tennessee and two marines scrabble
out of the wreckage the pilot Charis is
dead. They all make a run for the husk of
the covenant via use of the stolen APC.
The engineers walk cautiously up to the
Pyramid and see David surrounded by his
creations.
David looks at them disgustingly - and
they open fire on him, vaporising many of
the Xeno’s that surround him, more of the
brood emerge and head towards the
Engineers.
The avenging engineers procced to attack
the Hive head on as countless Xeno’s come
from all directions, their weapon’s fire
beams of mass destruction disintegrating
everything they touch eventually but it’s
not long before they too become
overwhelmed.
The sheer number of Xeno’s is too much and
soon one of the engineers is classically
dragged into a hole in the wall whilst his
friend is impaled in the back via an Xeno
Tail; the Lead engineer leaves to go back
to his ship.
David looks down at the engineer. And
speaks in his ancient tongue so he can
hear him loud and clear.
David
‘You think you could come here and stop me
father of Eden...behold my creations for
they will be its ruin!’
The Xenos kill the lead engineer and turn
their attention to the last remaining
marines who have made an escapee to the
covenant in a vain attempt to launch.
Int Covenant
Ericks has had an idea to launch the
escape pods from orbit and set the ship to
crash into the colony but the plan fails
miserably – so they decide if they are
going to do die that they should blow up
the ship.
David twigs what they are going to do.
Time for him to leave AGAIN. He’s not
happy given all his accomplishments are
here but he has no choice. In the distance
he can here the Alien Queens call.
He looks over towards the now abandoned
juggernaut and he and butler go to board
it.
Inside the complex the last two marines
fight a desperate struggle. They soon all
die one by one. It’s a sad and terrifying
scene. Ericks tries to send out a
transmission but its hopeless. The selfdestruct
countdown is also now active.
Capt. Eric’s. last man standing shooting
at everything, time slows down as he
screams ‘fuck you…’ the countdown reaches
zero as he’s about to killed by an open
jawed Xeno.
There’s a huge nuclear explosion and the
whole complex and surroundings for miles
around are destroyed.
From atop the mushroom cloud - David
safely flies away in the juggernaut. A
stroke of luck considering the quality of
his new cargo. A ship, and a sleeping
Engineer. But no pathogen. He must have
more of the pathogen.
David explains to Butler he’s setting
course for LV223 to pick up more of the
pathogen.
As David and Butler arrive at LV223 the
last Engineer wakes up from cryo – a
warning sign on the side of tube shows the
Xeno is coming - The infected engineer
wakes up and attacks Butler smashing him
to pieces he drags David from the pilot’s
chair and the engineer puts his fist
through his chest then throwing him across
the room - a giant hole remains where his
chest was.
David lays limp and semi lifeless on the
floor milk white blood oozes from his
mouth.
The engineer steadies himself and climbs
into the pilots chair – soon he begins to
grab his chest and loses control of the
ship taking it off course – he writhes in
the chair screaming out loudly as new born
Xeno Queen explodes from his chest.
They crash on the moon we all know -
LV426.
From amidst the dust and rubble David
scrambles to his feet, his life fading, no
one to help him make repairs this time.
He watches in awe as the newly born
creature begins to grow.
The next few scenes follow the growth of
the alien queen ultra-morph and David
stumbling about,
He’s achieved his goal.
David
My dream will live on forever because of
you.
The young alien walks free from the cracks
in the wreckage of the juggernaut, it
looks out over the horizon, nothing but an
empty landscape of primordial rock, it
looks up at the stars and turns around and
goes back inside the hold.
100 years later, In the darkness of space
we hear a familiar static once again. A
warning becoming scrambled.
Its Elizabeth Shaw, sent out over time,
echoes of a long-lost transmission reach
the sails of a new vessel that’s begins to
come into view. Heading onwards towards
the planet’s the signal makes horrible
terrifying screeching sounds. The last
thing we see is a computer readout.
