SC1. EXT. THE MOUNTAINS OF GRAATH [15:30]

[LORD VALIANT (42) SORROUNDED BY

HUNDREDS OF DEAD SOLDIERS ON A

RAINSOAKED AND DESOLATE

MOUNTAINSIDE WASTELAND STANDS

HEROICLY FACING THREE CRIMSON

COLOURED THADETH DEMONS AS THEY

HOVER IN THE AIR. THE SKY IS PITCH

BLACK AND THUNDER ECHOES

CONTINUOSLY AS LIGHTNING STRIKES

THE GROUND HARD FROM ALL ANGLES.

LORD VALIANT’S FINE SILVER HAIR AND

TURQUOISE TUNIC BLOW VIOLENTLY

AGAINST THE WIND]

NITRO VO:

This is where it all started; Lord Valiant, a

magnificent man and hero of our people courageously

fending off the Thadeth demons after the loss of his

entire army.

LORD VALIANT:

(SHOUTING) Demons!! Your reign of terror ends here!!

This will be your final stand!! You may have put an

end to my men’s lives but their spirits live on!!!

The Indomitable will of the Carisian people will

endure!!

THADETH DEMONS:

Alllll who opposssssse mussssssttt diiiiiie.

[THE DEMONS AND LORD VALIANT SLOWLY

STARE EACH OTHER IN THE EYE AS LORD

VALIANT’S HAND CAUTIOUSLY MOVES

TOWARDS A BRIGHT BLUE CRYSTAL

HIDDEN INSIDE HIS TUNIC]

NITRO VO:

It was all or nothing; defeat would have meant the

complete annihilation of our people at the hands of

those terrible demons and surrender was not an

option. Our entire army had gone into battle and all

had fallen. Our only hope was the Crystal of Kinaar

Valiant kept in his tunic for it was the gateway to

an inescapable mystical prison and the only chance of

victory.

THADETH DEMONS:

Deattthhhh to the Carissssiaanssssss.

LORD VALIANT:

(SHOUTING) Have at thee!!!

[THE THADETH DEMONS LAUNCH INTO AN

ATTACK CONSISTING OF TWO DEMONS

SWIPING AT LORD VALIANT WITH THEIR

CLAWS WHILE THE THIRD FIRES BRIGHT

GREEN BLASTS OF INTENSE ENERGY FROM

- 3 -

A DISTANCE. LORD VALIANT USES ALL

OF HIS SPEED AND AGILITY TO EVADE

THE ATTACKS]

JADE VO:

But these demons were well; demons; and they were too

quick for Valiant to get close enough to use it on

them! He had to think smart.

[LORD VALIANT GRABS A SHIELD AND

SWORD FROM A FALLEN SOLDIER AND

USES THE SHIELD TO BLOCK THE ENERGY

BLASTS WHILE SWINGING WITH THE

SWORD AS HE RACES ACROSS THE

BATTLEFIELD. THE DEMONS HIT LORD

VALIANT WITH A THREE PRONGED ATTACK

CONSISTING OF AN ENERGY BLAST, CLAW

SWIPE AND FIERCE PUNCH AGAINST THE

SHIELD WHICH SENDS HIM FLYING

ACROSS THE BATTLEFIELD BEFORE

COLLIDING HARD AGAINST THE SIDE OF

THE MOUNTAIN. HE LOOKS UP HEAVING

AND PANTING WITH PURE DEFIANCE IN

HIS EYES]

NITRO VO:

Valiant’s brilliant tactical mind spotted an opening

in the demon’s defenses and struck with the

ruthlessness and cunning for which he is so fondly

remembered!

LORD VALIANT:

(SHOUTING) Stasis!!!

[AS LORD VALIANT DRAMATICALLY

THRUSTS HIS HANDS INTO THE AIR AN

AMBER COLOURED TRANSLUCENT ENERGY

SHIELD ENCIRCLES TIGHTER AND

TIGHTER AROUND THE DEMONS AND HOLDS

THEM FIRMLY IN ONE SPOT. THIS

CAUSES LORD VALIANT GREAT STRAIN TO

MAINTAIN. HE THEN RUNS AT FULL

SPEED TOWARDS THE DEMONS AND

THRUSTS HIS ARM THROUGH THE ENERGY

SHIELD PLACING HIS PALM FLAT

AGAINST THE FIRST DEMON’S STOMACH]

LORD VALIANT:

(SHOUTING) Entrapment!!!

[THICK BONE GREY VINES BEGIN TO

ENVELOP THE DEMONS AT AN ALARMING

RATE]

LORD VALIANT:

(SHOUTING) Displacement!!!

[LORD VALIANT DRIVES HIS HAND INTO

THE ROCKY GROUND AND IS INSTANTLY

- 4 -

TELEPORTED 100 METRES AWAY FROM THE

DEMONS. HE CEREMONIOUSLY UNSHEAVES

THE CRYSTAL, PLACES IT IN FRONT OF

HIM ON THE GROUND; DROPS HIS SHIELD

AND SWORD THEN FALLS TO HIS KNEES

WHILE HOLDING HIS ARMS ALOFT AND

LOOKING UP AT THE SKY]

LORD VALIANT:

(SHOUTING) Muserat Ekht Tarum!!……

[A BRIGHT BLUE LIGHT BEGINS TO

EMINATE FROM THE CRYSTAL OF KINAAR

THE DEMONS STRUGGLE FIERCLY TO FREE

THEMSELVES]

JADE:

And so began the legendary incantation of enclosure;

Valiant would have only one chance of success. It was

all or nothing.

LORD VALIANT:

(SHOUTING) Nakhubaar El Maraphet!!……

[THE CRYSTAL OF KINAAR SLOWLY

STARTS TO RISE INTO THE AIR AS THE

LIGHT EMANATING FROM IT BURNS

BRIGHTER AND BRIGHTER. THE ENERGY

SHIELD AROUND THE DEMONS BEGINS TO

FADE AS THE VINES CONSTRICTING THEM

START TO SNAP]

LORD VALIANT:

(SHOUTING) Ekhmanium Wazarwhi Harrabesh!!……

[THE CRYSTAL RISES TO A FIXED

POSITION FIVE FEET ABOVE LORD

VALIANT’S HEAD WITH ITS LIGHT

BURNING BRIGHTLY. LORD VALIANT’S

FACE IS ILLUMINATED BY THIS LIGHT.

THE DEMONS DRAMATICALLY BREAK FREE

OF THEIR CONSTRAINTS]

LORD VALIANT:

(SHOUTING) Zarazim Elios Nakaramesh!!!!!

[THE THREE DEMONS RACE TOWARDS LORD

VALIANT BUT AN INTENSE BEAM OF BLUE

ENERGY DARTS FROM THE CRYSTAL AND

STOPS THEM IN THEIR TRACKS]

LORD VALIANT:

(SHOUTING) Never again shall your maniacal villany

bring pain and darkness to the hearts the Carisian

people! Be gone into your eternal prison of anguish!!

Be gone demons!!

[MOLECULE BY MOLECULE THE DEMONS

ARE BROKEN DOWN AND SUCKED INTO THE

- 5 -

CRYSTAL AT AN ALARMING RATE]

LORD VALIANT:

(SHOUTING) Be…goooooonnnnne!!!!

[THE DEMONS SCREAM LOUDLY AS THEY

ARE SUCKED INTO THE CRYSTAL. ONCE

THEY ARE INSIDE, LORD VALIANT

COLLAPSES TO THE GROUND AS THE

THUNDER, RAIN AND LIGHTNING CLEARS

FROM THE SKIES]

REEYUKEE VO:

So everybody lived happily ever after, right?

[SCORES OF VERY SCRUFFY AND UNKEMPT

LOOKING VILLAGERS ARE ON THEIR

KNEES PREYING TO STATUES OF THE

THADETH DEMONS IN A WORN DOWN AND

RUSTIC LOOKING TEMPLE]

NITRO VO:

Not exactly; you see there was a large group of

separatists within our people who actually thought

that the Thadeth were good. These people were against

the increased used of machina in our society and

believed the Thadeth to be kind gods who would keep

our people in a pre-industrialized and harmonious

state.

REEYUKEE VO:

So weren’t they annoyed about them being locked up?

[WE SEE SHOTS OF MEDIEVAL STREET

RIOTS AND POLITICAL DEBATES. LOTS

OF PEOPLE SHOUTING AND LOOKING

ANGRY]

NITRO VO:

You bet; tensions began to build between those who

thought the Thadeth were evil and those who believed

they were good! The nation was split right down the

middle!

[WHILE WALKING THROUGH A CROWDED

MARKETPLACE, A DRABLY CLOTHED MALE

SEPARATIST (33) SWINGS WILDLY AT

LORD VALIANT WITH A SWORD. LORD

VALIANT SWIFTLY EVADES AND PLACES

THE MAN IN AN ARM LOCK]

JADE VO:

The Separatists made it clear that they wanted the

Thadeth released at all costs. This led to a surge of

violent attacks between both sides and even an

assassination attempt on Lord Valiant’s life.

Eventually the separatists were expelled from

Carisian society.

[LORD VALIANT NOW SITTING ON A

PLUSH THRONE IN A LAVISH MEDIEVAL

THRONE ROOM AND FLANKED BY SCORES

OF KNIGHTS; GESTURES BOLDLY FOR THE

SEPERATISTS TO LEAVE]

NITRO VO:

Things were terrible for the separatists after that.

The region they relocated to was plagued with famine,

drought, ion storms and hurricanes.

REEYUKEE VO:

Didn’t you help them?

NITRO VO:

We tried! We tried to help them but they wouldn’t

accept it!

JADE VO:

The Hydracite, as they now called themselves; refused

to take any charity from “Carisian scum”.

[THE THADETH DEMONS REPEATEDLY FIRE

BRIGHT GREEN BLASTS OF ENERGY AT A

FIXED POINT WHILE INSIDE THE

CRYSTAL. THIS CAUSES A TREMENDOUS

EXPLOSION. THEY THEN TELEPORT A

DRAB AND UNKEMPT LOOKING MALE

SEPARATIST (33) INSIDE AND

VIOLENTLY IMBUE HIM WITH COSMIC

POWER AMIDST A MAELSTROM OF ENERGY]

JADE VO CONT:

Anyway after almost a thousand years of trying to

break free from the crystal, The Thadeth managed to

create a small fissure in the structure of its energy

matrix!

NITRO VO:

It wasn’t big enough for them to escape-

JADE VO:

(Interrupting) But it was big enough for them to pull

a young man from the Hydracite inside and give him

all the sorcery and power that he’d need to defeat

our people and finally destroy the crystal.

[BRIGHT RED STREAKS OF ENERGY

HURTLE DOWNWARDS IN THE SKY AS

GENERAL DESTRUCTOR STANDS

FUTURISTIC COMBAT CONTROL ROOM

WATCHING THE ACTION VIA A

HOLOGRAPHIC DISPLAY DEVICE IN THE

CENTRE OF THE ROOM]

CUT TO:

SC2. INT. CARISIAN CONTROL ROOM [17:45]

NITRO:

That man; was General Destructor, he’s an evil and

maniacal tyrant who will not rest until he sees the

entire Carisian Empire reduced to a smouldering pile

of ash.

TIVATT:

General Destructor appears to be a most benevolent

fellow, quite the resplendent individual.

REEYUKEE:

Erm, what does resplendent mean?

TIVATT:

Backsters dictionary defines resplendent to mean

Dazzling, magnificent, or glorious.

REEYUKEE:

Oh… so he’s not resplendent, he’s a monster.

TIVATT:

Correct; I was being ironical.

REEYUKEE:

Oh… wait, what does ironic-

[HAYOLA’S AGGRESIVELY ARROGANT

VOICE BOOMS ACROSS THE LOUDSPEAKERS

CONCEILED WITHIN THE MANY MACHINES

ON THE WALLS AND STARTLES EVERYONE]

HAYOLA OS:

(Interrupting) Carisian commandos of the 55th

Brigade! Report promptly to the astrometrics

laboratory for a briefing on the upcoming away

mission.

[JADE, NITRO AND TIVATT MAKE THEIR

WAY TOWARDS THE DOOR. REEYUKEE

SCANS THE ROOM TO SEE WHERE THE

VOICE CAME FROM]

NITRO:

That’s us.

REEYUKKEE:

Where’d her voice come from? Can’t see any speakers-

HAYOLA OS:

(Interrupting) On the double!!!!!

REEYUKKEE:

Ahhh!!!

[REEYUKEE IS STARTLED BY THIS AND

QUICKLY CATCHES UP WITH THE OTHERS]

SC3. INT. ASTROMETRICS LAB [17:50]

[REEYUKEE, TIVATT, NITRO, JADE AND

FIVE CARISIAN COMMANDOS ARE IN LINE

STANDING TO ATTENTION AT THE CENTRE

OF THE ASTROMETRICS LAB. AT THE

FRONT THERE IS A PALE GREEN SEE

THROUGH HOLOGRAPHIC PROJECTION OF

PLANET ARTHAS. THERE ARE GLOWING

RED EDGES AROUND SEVERAL OF THE

COUNTRIES AND AN ANIMATED TRAIL

THAT LINKS THEM TO CARIS WHICH IS

HIGHLIGHTED AT THE FAR LEFT OF THE

PLANET. HAYOLA IS STANDING

ASSERTIVELY TO THE SIDE GESTURING

FIRMLY AT THE VARIOUS COUNTRIES

WITH A STEEL STAFF]

HAYOLA:

Last cycle, the Carisian supreme government issued

the deployment of 3 satellites to scan the world for

new deposits of the vastly depleting isotope,

Raritanium! Raritanium as you all know is the prime

source of fuel in our empire and therefore the

backbone of our entire economy! Without it; Carisian

enterprise worldwide would grind to a halt!

[REEYUKEE’S EYES WIDEN IN SHOCK]

HAYOLA CONT:

This morning at eleven hundred hours, the satellites,

named-

[AS HAYOLA NAMES EACH SATELLITE ITS

IMAGE VIOLENTLY PUSHES ITSELF ONTO

THE HOLOGRAPHIC DISPLAY]

HAYOLA CONT:

Rarigaze, Rariwatch, and Raristare revealed new

deposits of the isotope within the following

territories-

[THE HOLOGRAPHIC DISPLAY BLACKS OUT

ALL COUNTRIES EXCEPT FOR THOSE

HIGHLIGHTED WITH THE RED RING. AS

HAYOLA NAMES EACH TERRITORY IT

GLOWS BRIGHTLY]

HAYOLA CONT:

The land of Tarkum, The Elysian Fields of Splendour,

The Desolate Harabash Wastelands, The Catacombs of

Dendor, and The Supreme Nation of Yarwin!

[REEYUKEE IS COMPLETELY ABSORBED IN

THE PRESENTATION]

HAYOLA CONT:

It is imperative that we quickly establish supply

routes between Caris and each of these nations before

the Hydracite can get to them first! Our mission is;

to escort a small fleet of mining and construction

vessels to the mountains of Graath where the first

route and mining outpost base will be established!

Care not for the ion storms men; your ships will be

fitted with the latest photosynthetic ionic

conversion technology to withstand them!

[TWO TECHNICIANS IN WHITE BIOHAZARD

SUITS AND HELMETS QUICKLY APPROACH

TIVATT AND DRILL A GOLD MICROCHIP

INTO A SMALL OPENING OF THE ARMOUR

BRISKLY WALKING AWAY. REEYUKEE

LOOKS ON IN CURIOSITY, TIVATT DOES

NOT FLINCH]

HAYOLA CONT:

Air control reports an absence of Hydracite activity

in and around the Mountains of Graath so this will be

a very simple operation.

[THE HOLOGRAPHIC DISPLAY DEPICTS A

LARGE FREIGHT VESSEL ECORTED BY

FOUR FIGHTER JETS AT ITS FRONT,

REAR, AND SIDES]

HAYOLA CONT:

Escort the convoy with the standard diamond

formation, penetrate and scout the area in and around

the Raritanium deposits, and aid the isotope

processing and site construction crews until your

relief arrives at twenty three hundred hours do you

get me men?!

ALL COMMANDOS:

THROUGH HIS VISOR AND GAS MASK]

REEYUKEE:

Yo, Tivatt?

TIVATT:

Yes.

REEYUKEE:

What does ironical mean?

TIVATT:

Backsters dictionary defines ironical to mean comic,

sly and sarcastic.

REEYUKEE:

Oh, so what you said about General Destructor being

benevolent was a joke!

TIVATT:

Indeed. Your observational skills are improving.

REEYUKEE:

You know Tivatt it would be much easier if you’d just

use words I can understand.

TIVATT:

Correct. But then your linguistic development would

be diminished.

REEYUKEE:

Why does my “linguistic development” matter?

TIVATT:

Your father programmed me to assist you in your

personal growth.

REEYUKEE:

Really?! My Dad made you for me?!

TIVATT:

Correct.

REEYUKEE:

What, were you meant to be my birthday present?!

What’s the source?!

NITRO:

Bearing 325 mark 678; primary systems down to 65

percent!

Impossible! Air control reported an absence of

Hydracite activity in this region! It couldn’t

possibly be them!

what’s going on!

TIVATT:

Madam I am fitted with the latest Tomcraft Industries

anti Electro Magnetic Pulse technology. It would

appear that said shielding is proving strong enough

to withstand these attacks.

We’re sittin ducks out here!

HAYOLA:

Sweet heavens it is them! We must get out of range of

these blasts, all units; fall back to the following

coordinates! Reeyukee?!

REEYUKEE:

Boss lady!

HAYOLA:

You and the android are unaffected by the EMP blasts;

therefore, your mission is to infiltrate the

mountains of Graath, determine the source of the EMPs

and terminate with extreme prejudice!

REEYUKEE:

Done!

HAYOLA:

Now they’ll be expecting an incursion from the air;

infiltrate from the ground and catch them with their

pants down!

REEYUKEE:

You didn’t tell me you could turn into a car, Tivatt!

TIVATT:

You didn’t ask.

REEYUKEE:

Yeah I did! I asked you if you could turn into

anything else except for a plane!

TIVATT:

Indeed; but you did not ask me if I could transform

into a car.

REEYUKEE:

You’re so pedantic Tivatt! Did I use that right?

Pedantic?

TIVATT:

Affirmative; Backster’s dictionary defines pedantic

to mean fussy, precise and pompous.

REEYUKEE:

Yeah you’re definitely pedantic! What the heck is

that!!!?

[IN DISTANCE THERE IS A HUNDRED

FOOT TALL HUMANOID SHAPED ROCK

Excellent work, now let’s just hope the pipsqueak and

the android are successful with their mission.

NITRO:

Captain Impulse and Tivatt? Don’t doubt that for a

second ma’am. That little kid’s a firecracker and his

droid’s sharp as a whip! They won’t let us down.

How do I beat them?!
