Team Defiant Team – Halo Reach Machinima – Episode 3
The Battle of New Alexandria Part One
CE – camera opens on Halo ODST with the drop pods coming down
Note – Dare / Buck will be removed with a video of a heart rate monitor with the name Yuna Burress written above.
Yuna – flyleaf leader, coming into land inside New Alexandria’s city limits. Advice?
SFX – radio silence
Yuna – come in command
SFX – radio silence
The covenant corvette comes into shot through the glass on the pod
Yuna – oh shit
Yuna’s heartbeat increases exponentially
SFX – engine powering up
A flash of white light blinds the screen leaving only the audio
SFX – explosion noise (high pitched ringing) I’m not sure what the actual word for it is but when the Halo ring explodes on RVB season 3, when Lopez and church blow up causing a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge explosion leaving that noise.
SFX – a large banging is heard as the drop pod hits the ground (still on white screen) The drop pod opens and footsteps can be heard.
CE – the camera then cuts to the 2 falcons flying over New Alexandria (right at the beginning)
CE – the falcons land at rally point bravo on New Alexandria
Note – as you will notice while filming this (max) the falcons won’t be able to have Spartans on them as they fly. Avoid looking through the falcons or at the gunners, when the falcons come down to land film from below to make the falcon land on the camera.
Note – for duckegg, his armor ability is available in campaign level either with the rally points or inside hospital
Paz walks out from the civilians and walks up to Andriarno on the turret
Paz – Commander, good to see you again
Andriarno – you to Chris, you ready to get back in the fight?
Paz – affirmative
Paz gets on the falcon gunner seat and acknowledges duckegg and billy
The falcon rises and watches the civilians get on the pelican
Note – there’s a scripted part during this scene where a marine says “city’s been under siege for the last 5 days… blah, blah, blah…” this will need to be removed during editing
Paz – the covenant showed up here about 12 hours ago, ONI wants us to assist in civilian evacuations
Duckegg – what? We’ve already lost?
Billy – I don’t know the meaning of the word lose
Duckegg – I bet that’s not the only word
Paz – they just said they wanted us to get them outa here, pilot get us moving
The falcon starts moving and flies lower allowing billy and Paz to shoot the brutes, grunts and elites
Andriarno – Jack, you managed to get anything from James
Duckegg – I’m still trying, nothing yet though
Andriarno – how long does a space jump even take?
The civilian evac sites come into shot from behind the ridge
Billy – hey, check it out
CE – camera shows the evac ships as the falcons fly past
Duckegg – there’s so many
Andriarno – that’s why they need our cover fire
The falcons come into land with the marines
Jerry (the marine) – Defiant Team, the covenant are deploying in front of us, we need to hold them at this line, we let them past the civilians are doomed
The falcon drops off Defiant Team and they walk into the group of marines
Note – audio dubbed over the marines talking to avoid talk about the anti-air guns
The 4 Spartan’s hold off the covenant for a while with assistance from the Marines
Ad lib some battle phrases do lay over the fight scene
Billy – oh god
Duckegg – what
Duckegg turns to look at what billy is looking at
Note this scene will have to be filmed before the prior scene
The civilian transport begins take off
Colonel Ackers – civilian evac number three, you are not cleared for launch
Pilot – screw this, we’re out if here
The ship begins to accelerate but gets hit by the covenant laser
Pilot – oh god help us!
The ship hits the water
Andriarno and Paz run to the water and look at the crash site
Paz – oh shit…
Command *over radio* – New Alexandria command requesting new evac bird at location 17B
Andriarno – That corvette’s got to go we won’t get anyone out of here with them waiting above us
Paz – you got a plan?
Andriarno looks down at the water and steps into it
Andriarno – maybe
The camera goes to duckegg and billy in the command centre
Duckegg – colonel, I strongly advise that we hold off on evacuations until that corvette is dealt with
Colonel Ackers – affirmative Defiant Five, over and out
Duckegg walks away from the radio back towards Billy
SFX – the radio starts beeping in the room
Duckegg turns and goes back to the radio table
Yuna *over radio* – come in, anyone, this is Flyleaf captain requesting assistance from anyone near Boardwalk
Duckegg *radio* – come in Flyleaf Captain, this is Defiant Five, what’s you’re situation
Yuna *radio* – I landed on the Alexandria Board walk, I was engaged by elites and I’m cornered in
Andriarno and Paz walk into the room
Yuna *radio* – I’m running out of ammo quick, I don’t stand a chance by myself
Andriarno runs up to the radio table barging past duckegg
Andriarno *radio* – Yuna?
Yuna *radio* – Josh, Is that you?
SFX – load booming noise down the radio
Yuna *radio* – oh god, Josh get here quick! Over and out
SFX – radio cuts off
Andriarno – Yuna? Yuna! Come in
Billy turns and walks out the door and looks around
Billy – Yuna, you can come in now,
Andriarno turns around
Duckegg – you know her?
Andriarno – did you get her co-ordinates?
Billy walks back into the room
Billy – she’s not outside
Paz – she’s on the boardwalk, I know where that is
Andriarno – take me there, you’re coming to
Andriarno looks at duckegg and billy
Billy – ok
Duckegg – right,
The Defiant Spartans leave the room in a hurry
CE – camera cuts to black
CE – camera shows a fire ball coming into New Alexandria airspace
The fire ball crashes into a building causing a massive secondary explosion
Maiden – ow, god damn it I hate that part of the job
Maiden steps out from the building and looks around
Maiden – I swear that’s the last time I do that
Maiden drops down out of the building and begins to walk forwards towards the camera
CE – camera goes to the New Alexandrian cut scene showing Noble Six (now maiden) walking down onto boardwalk
CE – when the cut scene shows the first person view of him dropping cut and replace it with maiden dropping down off the bridge in a 3rd person view point
Game mode changes into custom game
Maiden takes a few steps forward and jumps up on the wall looking down the boardwalk
CE – camera looks at a first person zoomed in shot of the map, eventually turning and looking at a group of elites shooting at the building in the corner
CE – camera goes down to the building showing Yuna shooting out the window
The elites continue firing at the window as the door is barricaded
Maiden starts running over to the group of elites and begins firing
The elites turn and start shooting Maiden
Yuna starts shooting as well
Andriarno, Jack and Chris jump over the higher part of the boardwalk
Gideon jumps over at the same time but he jumps over facing the wrong way
Andriarno runs towards the elites and draws his sword killing one of the elites with a stab to the back
The fire fight continues for a few more seconds however 5 elites are no match for 5 Spartans
Yuna walks out the building onto the balcony looking down towards the Spartans
Yuna – thanks guys, I only had one mag left
Gideon – why where you reading magazines during a fight?
Yuna – huh?
Maiden – never mind, I’m James by the way
Yuna drops down off the balcony and stands in front of the Spartans
Yuna – where’s Josh?
Andriarno – I’m…
Billy – *interrupting* he’s over there, but I’m Gideon, the awesome one baby ;)
Yuna – uh huh
Yuna walks over to Andriarno
Billy turns slightly to Maiden
Billy – must be on the blob or something
Yuna – I missed you Josh
(Untested theory but if they both have empty swords and stand close enough to each other does it look like they’re hugging)
Camera looks at Duckegg and Paz who watch the hug and then look at each other and then back at Yuna and Josh
Andriarno – I missed you too
Yuna – I didn’t recognize you in the new armor,
Maiden – I don’t mean to interrupt but, well actually I do, we need to get out of here c’mon
The group moves out and starts walking towards the underground part of Boardwalk
Paz – so who’s the girl?
Duckegg – I dunno
The camera shows Andriarno and Yuna walking together
Billy – me neither but she’s got a fine ass
Andriarno turns, still walking alongside Yuna
Andriarno – next time turn off you’re radio *translated into Al Bhed
Once underground the Spartan’s stand around one another
Maiden – ok, what’s the situation here?
Andriarno – we’re trying to evac civilians, but the corvettes shooting any birds we get into the air
Duckegg – where’s the saber James?
Maiden – it blew up remember? When I was saving Yomary over here
Yuna – my names Yuna
Maiden – ok, whatever
Paz – we could board the corvette and overload the engines
Billy – over the city, are you mad?
Paz – we’ll we’ve gotta do something about it
Duckegg – why not fly it out from the city limits, then crash it into the hillside?
Andriarno – that’s actually not a bad idea
Maiden – yeah but how do we get up there?
Billy – we’ll just take a pelican
Yuna – the corvettes are shooting down anything non-covenant that gets within half a mile of it,
Duckegg – Brilliant
Billy – what about the covenant stuff flying around it
Maiden – they’re friendly, why would… they… shoot them. You guys thinking what I’m thinking?
Billy – yes we are
The team looks at Gideon
Billy – a rodeo! (Or funnier ad lib)
After an awkward silence, duckegg steps forwards
Duckegg – let’s go hijack a phantom
CE – camera cuts to black
CE – camera opens up on the night time version of New Alexandria with Andriarno, Duckegg and Paz on the landing pad (start of mission)
Andriarno *over radio* – Defiant Two, come in
Maiden *over radio* – go ahead Commander
Andriarno *over radio* – the covenant outpost is hidden inside one of the building’s, we’re gunna search via falcon. You, Three and Yuna look on ground level
Maiden *over radio* – roger that
Billy *over radio* – you forgot his name! its Josh
Maiden *over radio* – sighing
Andriarno – Defiant One out
Duckegg and Paz walk up onto the landing pad to where andriarno is standing
Duckegg – commander
Andriarno turns around and acknowledges duckegg and Paz as they get into the falcon
The falcon rises and hovers in place
Colonel Ackers – Come in Defiant One, we’re sending you co-ordinates to the first suspected site
Paz – I know that place
The falcon flies forwards towards the club errera
As the falcon comes into land the camera shows the fuel rod turrets firing at falcon
Duckegg – woah shit
The falcon quickly evades the fuel rod and allows duckegg and Paz to start shooting the turrets
Once the turrets have been destroyed the falcon comes into land
Paz – this place doesn’t look like a refueling station
Duckegg – yeah, tell me about it, commander, these co-ordinates are junk c’mon
Andriarno *over radio* – defiant two, any luck?
Maiden *over radio* – not so much, looks like the covenant has been deploying loads of scout camps over the city
Yuna *over radio* – shh! Patrol coming our way
Maiden *over radio* – ok, radio silence until I contact you boss
The falcon lifts off again and flies off into the distance
The falcon flies above a skyscraper and sees a phantom flying low around the city (driven by player 4 using phantom/pelican Easter egg
Duckegg – hey, check it out
The falcon turns and see’s the phantom
Paz – engaging target
Andriarno – wait, lets see where its heading, it might be refueling
Andriarno *over radio* – defiant two, we have eyes on a phantom, looks like its going to refuel we’re gunna tail it
SFX – silence
Andriarno *radio* – James… Yuna… Gideon?
SFX – radio silence
Duckegg – shit
The falcon continues to follow the Phantom
Andriarno – *radio* yuna can you hear me?
SFX – radio noise
Background static fills the silent audio
Arbiter – Blarg! Back down! These prisoners will be taken and interrogated
Elite 2 – we should kill the demons!
Arbiter – they have information we need, kill them later
Elite Pilot – refueling station coming up Arbiter,
Arbiter – good
SFX – radio cuts off again
Andriarno – tell me you can track the co-ordinates Jack
Duckegg – I don’t have to sir, look
The camera shows the falcon land on top of the hospital
Paz – I guess we’ve found the refueling station
Duckegg – well no shit
Andriarno – this isn’t a demo mission, it’s a rescue mission
Note – duckegg will be hidden by the camera angle for the next shot
The falcon begins to descend out of shot showing 2 banshees (driven by player 4 and duckegg) which clearly see the falcon and then fly off in different directions. The one on the right goes to the right and the left one goes to the left
