LOTM: Dark Skies S1 P8/Transcript

(Lenius, Marion, Rex, Sarah and Daniel are seen outside of the Shadow Lab as Lenius looks back and forth between the beacon and the lab)

Lenius: I think this is it?

(Rex looks around at the dilapidated and grass covered lab)

Rex: Why were the soldiers sent here anyway?

Lenius: They were supposed to recover data from inside that could help us in our situation. But I don't know why a distress beacon would be sent out.

Marion: This place seems scary.

Rex: Been abandoned for 5 decades, has to be.

Lenius: Well, no more waiting around, let's go.

(The group enters the building as the automatic door shuts behind them, leaving them in the dark. Rex then turns on his flashlight as Lenius's hand glows with yellow energy as a light source. They all slowly walk through the hallway, looking at the vines, mold and other strange substances on the walls.)

Rex: God, It smells like shit in here.

Daniel: Yeah, what happened here?

Lenius: Nothing good, that's for sure.

(As they continue walking, a shot from behind them is shown as a silhouette quickly passes by. Marion turns around in fear as she frantically looks for the disturbance.)

Lenius: What is it?

Marion: I heard something...behind us.

Rex: Hm, probably just a rat or something. Now come on, we gotta find our men.

(They are then seen deeper inside the lab. They then approach a terminal inside what appears to be a control room. Rex tries to access the terminal, but is unable to break the electronic lock)

Rex: Shit, does anyone here know how to hack this damn thing?

Marion: I do.

Rex: Alright then, break it open and try to find some useful data. I'm gonna keep searching for the soldiers.

(Rex leaves as Marion begins hacking the terminal as Lenius stares confused)

Lenius: How in the fuck?

Sarah: It's her power.

Lenius: Ah.

(Rex is seen walking down another hallway. As he walks, blood drips down onto his helmet, causing him to look at the ventilation shaft above as he falls back in shock as he sees one of the soldiers hanging from a strange organic substance on the ceiling as the soldier is seen with his organs hanging from his stomach, his jaw torn off, one eye torn out and various cuts all over his body. Rex then looks at the ground and finds the other soldiers, who have all died in equally brutal ways. This causes Rex to run back to the control room just as Marion cracks the code)

Rex: Lenius.

Marion: Rex, I got the data.

(Marion gives Rex a data chip as he removes his helmet. The others see how shaken he is)

Rex: Great, Lenius we need to leave.

Lenius: Why?

Rex: I found the soldiers. They're all...all...dead.

Lenius: What, how?

Rex: I'm not sure but-!

(The group hears heavy breathing and gurgling sounds from within the dark hall. A bloodied man in a military outfit approaches the doorway looking down as he places his hand on the doorframe to support himself)

Lenius: What the hell?

(Marion steps back slowly as the man is seen slightly twitching as Lenius and Rex approach him)

Lenius: Sir, are you okay.

(The man twitches a bit more before vomiting a gooey black substance on the floor, causing Lenius and Rex to stumble back. The man looks up at the group, revealing his grotesque, mutated face and claws as he stares for a bit before screaming at the group)

Marion: WHAT IS THAT THING?!

(The creature rushes at the group, causing Rex to shoot it in the head, killing it. As it hits the floor, more growls and screams are heard along with rapid footsteps.)

Daniel: Oh hell!

Sarah: COME ON! THERE'S MORE COMING!

(The groups makes a break for the exit as more creatures rush in from another hallway. They all run down the hallway as the creatures close in)

Rex: Quickly, there's the door!
