PROJECT ONE: FROM OUTER SPACE 

by

Gabriel R. Lopez


OPENING SCENE-a view of the Earth from space, with the North American continent facing the camera. A satellite in orbit avoids being nicked by a small meteor.

V.O.
Previously on Not intentionally obsessive...

EXT.A DESERTED LOCATION SOMWHERE OUTSIDE LASVEGAS

A meteorite crashes into the earth near an abandoned copper mine, or a housing construction in early development shooting a plume of dust and debris into the surrounding desert.

EXT. RESEARCH FACILITY
The view of Any kind of building will do as long as there is a sign that identifies it as a southern Nevada research facility, and as long as the building looks as if research may be taking place inside


INT. RESEARCH FACILITY
Two men are roaming a narrow hallway, one is holding a coffee mug and wearing a lab coat, the other is wearing a dress shirt, with a pocket protector  and tie, his shirt is tucked into his belt. Both are wearing ID badges. The man in the dress shirt is young in his mid to late twenties, the word Johnson is printed on his pocket protector. The man in the lab coat looks to be in his mid to late 50's and appears to be recovering from a hangover. They enter what appears to be a break room.

JOHNSON
Doctor, in addition to leaking some kind bio-mimetic slime, the meteorite appears to be emitting a low level radio and infrared signals. Not unlike the ones used by wireless communication devices.


DOCTOR
*Groans* god I wished I called in sick this morning. Okay, inform the military and the CDC, and monitor area hospitals and tell them to report anything suspicious.

INT. LIVINGROOM-NIGHT
Curtis is playing an online role playing game or first person shooter with a wireless laptop.

CURTIS
Four bars? Sweet! Ha Ha, the targs are getting pwned tonight.

INT.HIGHSCHOOL-THE FOLLOWING MORNING.
CURTIS is chatting [verbally] with some friends in the hall. Another  group of students wearing the same color jersey approaches CURTIS. The leader of the group is JETHRO.

JETHRO
Hey, Curtis. Can we talk with you for a minute?

CURTIS
What do you want this time Jethro?

JETHRO
We will speak with you alone.


Curtis
Why?

JETHRO
We are Sal-Mon.

INT.GYM-LIGHTS OUT
A small amount of daylight is peaking in through a narrow window. Despite this  However, the Gym remains poorly lighted like a parking lot. We see Curtis, unconscious, Seated in an office chair in direct sunlight. his arms and legs are bound with what appears to be packaging or duct tape. CURTIS slowly awakens and winces from the direct sunlight.

CUTRIS
Ech! Too bright.
(more)

Curtis realizes he is being held captive.

CURTIS
(cont'd)
What the?

He sees the silhouette of a human figure in the sunlight.

CURTIS
(continuing)
Coach, that you?

Curtis struggles momentarily to free himself of his bonds.

COACH
Don't worry son, we'll get rid of that faulty programming of yours...

The coach holds what appears to be a modified tazer which begins to spark.

FADE OUT

V.O
We now return you to the story already in progress.

A match is seen lighting the darkness. The flames of the  match reveals a kneeling cloaked figure who is lighting a candle. The cloaked figure is female, and is wearing a charm bracelet and  black nail polish.


CLOAKED FIGURE
Today's meeting of the Betty Spears fan club is now called to order. Sister Pop Tart, is there any new business you would like to discuss before we begin the chant of Betty?

INT. APARTMENT LIVINGROOM-CANDELIGHT
We see the silhouettes of three cloaked figures, including the one wearing the black nail polish. The cloaked figure to her right begins to speak.

POP TART
I think we should pray for Betty, she's been getting a lot of negative press in the news lately. Especially after that horrible breakup with Al E-Z and the custody battle over their dog Widdles.

CLOAKED FIGURE
Sister Maya, anything you'd like to share before we begin the chant of Betty?

MAYA
I think lady Betty's new album is pure gold. And, her remakes of Eiffel 65's "blue," and Reliant K's "hostage," really spoke to me as an individual.

CLOAKED FIGURE
We will now repeat the chant of Betty.(more)


All three chant the chant of betty... it is indescribably unintelligible, and exceptionally lame.

CLOAKED FIGURE
(Cont'd)
We will now consult the tome of Betty, Sister POP TART go next door and ask Curtis if he would like to join us for the post meeting pizza party.

POP TART
why?

CLOAKED FIGURE
Because he's paying.

EXT. TWO BEDROOM APAERTMENT-
POP TART is revealed to be an average looking 17 year old girl who is dressed in a hooded sweatshirt and blue jeans. POP TART knocks on the front door, the door creaks open on the third knock.

POP TART
Hello? Curtis, you in here?

INT. TWO BEDROOM APARTMENT
POP TART enters. The home is poorly lit as all the interior lights are off and the blinds are shut.

A hand reaches out from the kitchen after POP TART passes the entryway.

POP TART
AHH! Dammit Curtis, you shouldn't sneak up on...people...like...tha- OH MY GOD YOUR EYE!

Through the shadows we see Curtis with an evil grin on his face, his left eye and part of the left side of his face has been replaced with some kind of cybernetic replacement.

CURTIS
(speaking in monotone)
Hello Pop Tart, we weren't expecting you.


An explosion destroys a wall near CURTIS and POP TART. When the dust settles we see a teenage girl with brown hair, blue eyes, a black leather jacket, a Jolly Roger t-shirt, a knee length skirt and stylish footwear. In her right hand is a plasma weapon with a smoking barrel.   


MEGAN
Is it too late for me to join the party?

CURTIS
Hostile life form detected.

MEGAN glances at POP TART
MEGAN
RUN! I'll cover you.

POP TART
What?

MEGAN
Are you blind and stupid, I said run!

POP TART escapes tripping over debris.

MEGAN
So you're the great Lord Haxxor of Sal-mon. I must say I was expecting something a little more impressive.

CURTIS/LORD HAXXOR
We are sal-mon. prepare for your doom.

What follows is two minute fighting match between CURTIS and MEGAN. MEGAN lunges at CURTIS. MEGAN is fast and agile like Jackie Chan in wheels on meals. CURTIS is considerably slower than MEGAN, but what he lacks in speed, he makes up for with brute strength. The battle between the two continues, destroying  lamps and tearing up the apartment until CURTIS finally knocks MEGAN unconscious. If anyone asks, remind them that any standard Plasma weapon is only good for one shot.

FADE OUT

INT. HOSPITAL CORRIDOR
A DETECTIVE is waiting in the corridor next to a door. A doctor enters the corridor from the same door.

DETECTIVE
Doctor Black, I just have a few more questions about the girl.

DOCTOR BLACK
I wouldn't know where to begin, she was found unconscious at the site of an explosion, it looks like she most likely struggled with her attacker, and she still refuses to give out any personal information.

DETECTIVE
Can I speak with her?

DOCTOR BLACK
I don't see why not, she's your problem now.

INT. HOSPITAL BEDROOM
MEGAN's bed is set at an incline. The detective has pulled up a stool that was at the foot of the bed and starts asking her questions. Megan has a black eye, and a split lip

DETECTIVE
I'm Detective Parker, I'm with the Las Vegas police department.

MEGAN
Nice meeting you officer.

DETECTIVE
I was wondering if you could provide me with some information about the person who attacked you.

MEGAN
I shouldn't have too. I was found in his apartment, and I got in more hits than he did.

DETECTIVE
Can you give me a name?

MEGAN
Megan.

DETECTIVE
Is that your name?

MEGAN
Maybe.

DETECTIVE
Do you have a last name?

MEGAN
Do you?


DETECTIVE
Cute. Listen, I'm going down the hall to get a soda. Would you like anything?

MEGAN
Sure... I'll have a ginger ale.

INT. HOSPITAL CORRIDOR.
DETECTIVE Parker is holding ginger ale in on hand and his preferred soft drink in the other. The detective turns to enter MEGAN'S room at the hospital.

INT.HOSPITAL BEDROOM
The room is empty, because it appears Megan has escaped. The officer is surprised, but quickly puts down the soft drinks and flips out his cell phone. He exit's the room while in communication to someone.

FADE OUT

EXT. EXTRA TERRESTRIAL SPACE VEHICLE
The ship looks like a blue minivan with rounded windows and orange wings. And, despite its appearance it is ten times larger on the inside. We can see the vehicle is in orbit around earth as the camera slowly zooms into one of the oddly shaped driver's side windows. We can make out the form of a rabbit shaped head, with bug eyes and insect antenna. The alien is humanoid with a total of three fingers, two digits and a thumb. The alien has a light brown fur coating that makes it look kind of like a puppet.

INT. EXTRA TERRESTRIAL SPACE VEHICLE
We now have a better view of the alien, it is wearing red and black body armor. With him is a human holding a small furry thing with horns on its head. The alien is named VESPARTILLO, and  the human is BADE.

VESPARTILLO
Look. I'm sorry I abducted you, and that your little friend got turned into a weaboo. But, the sooner we get rid of the zombies, the sooner you can get me my neutrino mecha spanner, the sooner I can drop you back off on your planet.

BADE
Where are the zombies now?

VESPARTILLO
Don't worry about them, I've sealed them off in engineering.

BADE
I'm not so sure that was a good idea.

VESPARTILLO
Why not?

BADE
I'm no expert on alien technology, but it occurs to me it doesn't take much effort to break something. within the last half hour alone, I've ripped through two doors and broke that webo gun thingy.


VESPARTILLO
Relax, Mimas should be able to keep them out of trouble...unless he breaks, and the webo gun thingy is called a Meme beam.

BADE
Huh?

VESPARTILLO
It's called a meme beam, one of the few non lethal weapons my people developed. It transforms its victims into weaboo.

BADE
What's a Weaboo?

VESPARTILLO
It's a game animal native to my home world. They're quite tasty.

BADE
Figures... Is it reversible?

VESPARTILLO
Not exactly.


BADE
Define not exactly.

VESPARTILLO
It's more or less permanent. However, hydrogen dioxide seems to trigger an unstable reaction.

BADE
In English please.

VESPERTILLO
Hot and cold water reverse the effects of the ray gun.

BADE and VESPARTILLO are interrupted by a small green flying robot which hovers into the room. The robot's head is approximately the size and shape of an alarm clock. The robot has two arms that are twice the length of its body and it's propulsion system is a separate unit connected just below the robots head.

VESPARTILLO
MIMAS! What the heck are you doing here?

MIMAS
We have an incoming transmission from Earth.

VESPARTILLO
What about the zombies?

MIMAS
I was unable to monitor their life signs as requested.

VESPARTILLO
What does that mean?

BADE
He means they're zombies. They have no life signs.

VESPARTILLO
Which means they may have been wandering the ship the whole time. Mimas! Locate and destroy all zombies on this vessel. And transmit our location to the Chiropteran base on Earths moon.

MIMAS
Confirmed.


BADE
Hey, viper-tilly Does the red flashing button on the console do anything dangerous?

VESPARTLLO
No, it only opens the view screen for incoming transmissions.

BADE
Oh, so I didn't break anything.




VESPARTILLO
What?

VESPARTILLO'S attention is drawn to the view screen. In the view screen we see CURTIS as Lord Haxxor. He has a vicious smirk on his face and his right eye seems almost snakelike.

CURTIS
Greetings Gentlemen.

VESPARTILLO
It's you!!

BADE
Curtis?

VESPARTILLO
You know this jackal?

BADE
Yeah, he's my half brother... I'm kinda' taking care of him while our parents are on vacation.

VESPARTILLO
Kinda'? The little cyborg has started his own terrorist organization.

CURTIS
SILENCE FOOL!
Alien vessel, you have failed to heed my warnings. For this will pay. Know that you are on the way to your destruction.

BADE
Would somebody please tell me what the hell is going on?

We can see the monitor and console of the extra terrestrial space vehicle sparks there is a pop of electrical current and then all the lights on the ship go out.

BADE
Oh great, The f@#king zombies must have disconnected to power supply somehow.


VESPARTILLO
impossible!

MIMAS
WARNING! Incoming transmission, Audio only.

Flames have broken out on the control console.

VESPARTILLO
Mimas, open the channel.

VESPARTILLO grabs a nearby fire extinguisher and puts out the fire on the console. Then tosses the fire extinguisher to BADE who blows out another fire. 

AHOOL
V.O.
Vespartillo Homo, this is Ahool Townsend with the Nasforatu. Our sensors indicate massive power fluctuations, and internal damage. Do you require assistance?

VESPARTILLO
Hell yes we require assistance. My ship has been infected with zombies.

INT.NASFORATU
AHOOL looks to be the same species as VESPARTILLO, he has a green fur coat, possibly blue or red eyes with matching antennae.

AHOOL
No worries, disconnect your survival pod and we'll tractor you safely into one of the cargo bays.

VESPARTILLO
V.O.
Understood, please stand by.

VESPARTILLO presses a large green button which causes the doors to seal themselves and the front left section of the extra terrestrial space vehicle separates from the larger whole. There is a short rocket burst propelling the pod a distance twice the length of the ship itself. We now get our first glimpse of the Nosforatu, the ship is five times larger in scale than VESPARTILLO'S extraterrestrial space vehicle, and naturally dwarfs the survival pod. The Nosforatu tractors the survival pod into its cargo bay.

INT.NOSFORATU DOCKING BAY
One of the closed hatches of the survival opens. Vespartillo, Bade, Mimas, and the weaboo formally known as ADAM, exit  the survival pod only to find themselves at gunpoint. Ahool and three crewman came prepared for their guests. One of the crewmen destroys the MIMAS robot to make a point.

AHOOL
Hands in the air! I'm Captain AHOOL and you're on a pirate ship.

BADE
Right, get out of the frying and move into the fire.

FADE OUT

EXT. POLICE CHASE EARTH
Police vehicles are charging after MEGAN, who is in a stolen ambulance, during a high speed pursuit. MEGAN is traveling southbound on I-215, when the 215 becomes a bridge over an abandoned street, she busts the railing of the bridge. The ambulance is in a freefall. Two feet from the ground all time and sounds stop. MEGAN hops out of the ambulance and walks away calmly. After MEGAN appears to cross a distance of 50yards, time restarts, the ambulance explodes, the shockwave passes through MEGAN as she becomes momentarily intangible, and a pigeon crashes into a brick wall. Megan's body starts to become unstuck in time momentarily, but re-stabilizes itself. MEGAN'S WATCH chirps twice.

WATCH
Warning! Low Battery.

MEGAN
Guess I won't be doing that again.

FADE OUT

INT.NASFORATU HOLDING CELL
BADE and VSPARTILLO are imprisoned. VESPARTILLO is laying on the only cot in the room and BADE is leaning near the door Indian style his eyes closed.



BADE
This is Bullshit man. They don't even have a F@#KING TOILET!

VESPARTILLO
That's because your supposed to piss on the force field.

BADE
Isn't that a little like whizzing on an electric fence.

VESPARTILLO
I guess now we'll never know.

BADE
Shht! I hear something.

VESPARTILLO
What?

BADE
It's kind of like... pop pop pop scratch scratch scratch pop pop pop.
 
VESPARTILLO
It's probably just the air conditioner kicking on.

BADE
NO, that's code for save our souls.

VESPARTILLO
Well, it's coming from the air conditioning vent, and the only thing small enough to fit through there would be a weaboo...

BADE and VESPARTILLO
Adam!


VESPARTILLO and BADE manage to pull the cover off of the ventilation system, and ADAM falls onto the cot below head first. ADAM is covered in some kind of gelatinous slime. 




VESPARTILLO
Wonderful, now there are three of us are trapped in here instead of two.

BADE
I thought you said they were going to eat him?

VESPARTILLO picks up the still gooey ADAM.

VESPARTILLO
Considering the fact that he's basted in jelly I'd say he's halfway there. But, more importantly I think I figured out a way to get us out of here.

Fade out
We see "moments later..." against a black backdrop. The camera fades into the location.

INT. EXTERIOR OF NOSFORATU HOLDING CELL.
VESPARTILLO is in a state of panic, as BADE lays helpless on the ground with ADAM tucked safely under his shirt.

VESPARTILLO
Guards! Guards! We need a Medic in here!

Two  GUARDS approach. One opens the force field and enters

BADE
[moaning in pain]

GUARD #1
What seems to be the problem here?

VESPARTILLO
LOOK!

BADE
Grr-Ungh!


GUARD #2
What Happened!



VESPARTILLO
I don't know. One moment I was asleep and then the next thing I know, My friend here pulls this rancid Weaboo out of the ventilation system, unhinges his jaw and swallows it whole.

BADE
Gurk!

GUARD #1
You! Take the earthling to the infirmary. I'll watch the other one.

GUARD #2 grabs BADE and helps him to his feet and escorts him to the infirmary.

INT.NARROW HALLWAY NOSFORATU
Bade makes a point of intentionally walking into a beam pole and falling. Once again GUARD #2 helps BADE to his feet again. BADE doubles over in pain. He leans against the wall for support. ADAM falls gracelessly to the from under BADE'S shirt before the guard forces BADE into a standing position. ADAM hides, and remains out of site for the duration of the next scene.

GUARD #2
Move!

BADE
Wait! I gotta' do something first.

POW!
BADE gives GUARD #2 a knuckle sandwich. GUARD #2 falls to the ground. BADE kicks the guard in the head. GUARD #2 retaliates, and knocks BADE to the ground. The two struggle for a bit but GUARD #2 gets in a good right hook. 

BADE
Alright @$$hole! I Dare you to hit me like that again.

GUARD #2 gives BADE a left hook.

BADE
(continues)
Look buddy, If you touch me again I will shove my foot up your shiny metal plated ass.

GUARD #2 gives bade another right hook.

BADE
(Continuing)
Hey @$$hole! I thought I told you not to hit me agai-

BADE blocks an incoming attack and then uses Guard #2's momentum to propel him to the ground. BADE moves to a standing position and nudges the body with his foot to make sure that the guard is Knocked out.

BADE
That's what I thought.

BADE spits on the ground and wipes the blood from his lips.

Meanwhile ADAM has poked his head into an adjacent hall to see the ships cook, and several hungry space pirates armed with drool, forks, and knives.

RANDOM CREWMAN
There he is! Let's get him.


INT.NOSFORATU SECURITY ACCESS CONSOLE
VESPARTILLO is sitting at the console, checking over the monitors. GUARD #1 is laying on the floor beside him unconscious. VESPARTILLO  flips three switches on the console.

VESPARTILLO
Hmm. I wonder what this button does.

VESPARTILLO presses a triangular green button.

THE MONITOR reveals that he has accidentally blown up his own ship.

VESPARTILLO
Well, at least I got rid of the zombies. Computer, locate the earthling.

THE COMPUTER beeps.


COMPUTER
Unable to comply.

VESPARTILLO
Damn.

VESPARTILLO enters another sequence into the console, presses and then presses an orange button.


VESPARTILLO
Well my work here is done.

COMPUTER
Auto desto-nukification engaged.

VESPARTILLO gets up and leaves as he exits the sound of an energy weapon powering up can be heard as we see another guard sneaking up behind VESPARTILLO. The camera moves down VESPARTILLOS' leg and we see a bored ADAM.

BADE
(in guard uniform)
Where do you think your going?


VESPARTILLO
I'm going back to Cali'

BADE
Ha ha.

BADE powers down the energy weapon.

INT. DOCKING BAY- ENTRANCE
BADE has a energy weapon pointed at VESPARTILLO'S back. VESPARTILLO has his arms behind his back and is hiding up the transformed ADAM behind his back. The crew approaches an ENTRANCE GUARD.

ENTRANCE GUARD
Prisoner transfer?

BADE
Yeah. Careful, he's got a nice left hook.

ENTRANCE GUARD
Move along.

INT. DOCKING BAY
VESPARTILLO is concerned that their brief encounter with the ENTRANCE GUARD was too easy.

VESPARTILLO
Didn't anything about that whole exchange seem wrong?

BADE
Nope. Sometimes things are just that easy... besides, George Lucas has too many people kissing his ass already.

ADAM,BADE, and VESPARTILLO are now witness to AHOOL'S fleet of space vehicles.

BADE
(whistles impressed by the view)
Nice.

VESPARTILLO
(completely un-impressed)
How do these people even survive invasions?

BADE taps one of the pods a few times. The pod sounds hollow. BADE then finds a panel near the door and it responds to the a gemstone on his glove.

BADE
Dude, check this out. It's translucent inside. Like a hamster ball.

INT.POD
ADAM, BADE, and VESPARTILLO are standing in the pod.

BADE
Ok, on three we push. One...two...three...

EXT.POD/INT.DOCKING BAY

BADE
I said left.

THE POD moves forward shakily and eventually taps into a glass wall.

INT.POD

BADE
It isn't moving.

VESPARTILLO
I think that's because we ran into a window.

BADE
Oh snap! We got guards on our six.

EXT.POD/ INT.DOCKING BAY
Patrolling robot guards detect three unauthorized life forms in pod 9. THE POD rolls away from the robots as quickly as possible. The crew eventually escape.
THE POD is eventually sucked into a larger space vehicle and the bubble pops. VESPARTILLO checks behind them to make sure they are safe. BADE has a brief fight with another guard. The crew eventually gains control of a shuttle craft. The shuttle craft escapes from the Nosforatu seconds before it explodes. The shuttle then crash lands somewhere in a forest. There's a loud crash.
Eventually ADAM, BADE, and VESPARTILLO leave the crash site.

EXT.FOREST CRASH SITE

BADE
Wow, it looks so alien...

VESPARTILLO
That's because it's Earth.

BADE
I know, I'm from here, but... look at this place.

VESPARTILLO
(sarcastically condescending)
Oh yes, it's magical.

BADE
(points in random direction)
Over there. I think I see a road.

VESPARTILLO,BADE, and ADAM leave the crash site. And come across a small capsized bridge the bridge covered the distance between a narrow sinkhole about two or three feet wide, and about 100yards across.

BADE
I could totally jump this...
(looks at VESPARTILLO)
you go first.

VESPARTILLO jumps across the sinkhole.

VESPARTILLO
You were right, that was easy.

ADAM peeks over the edge of the sinkhole and backs away.

BADE
(kneeling over ADAM)
What's the matter little guy. Afraid of heights?

ADAM glares at BADE.

VESPARTILLO
Hey @$$hole. You coming or what?

BADE
Yeah. Just a second.
(looks at ADAM)
Ok, on three we jump.

AFTER a running start BADE jumps. ADAM does not. Bade falls into the sinkhole and lands in an underground river. BADE pulls himself ashore in the cavern. A hand reaches out to help him up, it's MEGAN.

BADE
Who?

MEGAN
No time for that now. We need to get to the Eiffel tower before your brother contacts the aliens and the armada gets here.

BADE
(grabs MEGAN)
Yo. Hold on. Who the hell are you?

MEGAN
I'm Megan. Now let's get going we don't have much time before-
(splash)

VESPARTILLO has jumped into the Chasm and his holding ADAM like a sack of flour.

VESPARTILLO
Hey a party, let's kill a dolphin and have a few laughs.

MEGAN
You're working with the aliens!

BADE
Actually, it kind of abducted me. Its complicated.

TO BE CONTINUED...
