JACOB: WildC.A.T.s mission

log, entry 8.6.

Void has detected extensive

Daemonite activity near the

Middle Eastern city of

Meldesnas.

The WildC.A.T.s have been

dispatched to investigate.

Their instructions are to

remaininconspicuous.

Completely subtle.

And if there’s one thing the

WildC.A.T.s are noted for--

MAN: Hold it right there.

(Gun cocking)

JACOB: It’s their subtlety.

Ahh, he is indeed a Daemonite

drone.

Observe the marker.

Love the way you check for

these little details after you

knock him cold.

A gun is a gun.

The true warrior does not

hesitate.

Door’s locked.

GRIFTER: Won’t be long.

Easy, hotshot.

Let’s try the delicate touch

first.

(Metal clanging)

Once a hacker, always a hacker.

GRIFTER: Not bad.

Could have used you on a job or

two a couple of years back.

PIKE: Move it!

Get those drills loaded!

GRIFTER: It’s Pike.

ZEALOT: It would appear

the Daemonites are stealing

digging equipment.

WARBLADE: They must be

working underground.

No wonder Void couldn’t

pinpoint their position.

GRIFTER: Do we take ’em?

No.

This is but a minor theft.

We must follow them to their

main base of operation.

And then we shred them.

Correct.



SPARTAN: Activating cloaking

mode...now.

VOODOO: How long will Zealot

and the others be gone?

They’re due to check in

in four hours.

Better grab some shuteye.

Maul?

MAUL: Yeah?

You’ve got first watch.

Keep an eye peeled.

Void’s readings were hazy.

The Daemonites could be

anywhere.

I’ll be watching.

Good.

I understand you have

some...memories of this place.

No.

Nothing important.

All right.

You’ll be relieved by Voodoo at

0400.

Nothing important at all.



Dad, Dad!

I found something.

Look!

What is it?

Jeremy, look out!

JEREMY: Uh, Dad!

Dad!

Jeremy!

(Both grunting)

(Grunting)

(Panting)

(Rumbling below)

The pit, it’s collapsing.

Hasseem.

Quickly, pull them up!

Pull them up.

Hurry.

PROFESSOR: Jeremy, are you

all right?

J-Just a scratch.

Dad, you saved me.

But the-the dig.

Ah, son, you’re all that

matters.

You’re my pride, my joy, my

hopes and dreams.

Wha--?

No, what’s happening to me?

Dad!

Aah, you’re not my son.

Dad!

Get away, get away!

Dad!

Dad.

Huh?

Uh, what?

VOODOO: Rise and shine,

chunk style.

If Spartan knew you’d fallen

asleep on guard duty he’d tear

your head off.

Oh, he can have it.

Maul, you having nightmares

again?

Nah, it’s nothing.

Really.

Maul, look at me.

It’s the V-babe, remember?

You can’t hide anything from me.

Now talk.

Oh, my Dad again.

I guess it’s the area.

He used to work here.

Saved my life once.

Doesn’t sound like such a bad

dream to me.

You don’t understand.

He was more than my dad.

He was my hero.

I wanted to be just like him.

Then I dream he sees me, like I

am now.

Oh, Maul.

You never told him?

How could I?

The man was a god to me.

I can’t let him know I turned

into this.

Maul--

(Whistling nearby)

SPARTAN: Heads up, you two.

Zealot just signalled.

They found the Daemonites and

they’re on the move.

Coming.

Let’s move, Maul.



(Spartan whistling)

SPARTAN: Hustle up.

On my way.



GRIFTER: Join the WildC.A.T.s

and see the world.

(Coughing)

Didn’t realise I was going to be

seeing it so up close and

personal.

The way of the warrior is not

an easy one.

(Grifter coughing)

GRIFTER: Now she tells me.



SPARTAN: Zealot’s signal has

stopped moving.

They’re inside.

MAUL: Do we attack?

SPARTAN: Not yet.

Don’t want to tip their hand.

Wait for a sign.

VOODOO: How will we know it?

I get the feeling there won’t

be much doubt.

(Grifter sneezing)

Do not dare.

(Warblade sneezing)

Sorry.

PIKE: Intruders!

Eliminate them.

(Guns cocking)

VOODOO: Now?

Now.

Wait.

What?

There.

It’s my father.

He’s working for the Daemonites.



(Yelling)

Get them.

Get those invaders!

No.

Aw, no.

It can’t be.

Voodoo, he’s possessed, right?

Finish it.

Hurry!

Uh, no, sorry, Maul.

He’s clear.

No.

No, not my father.

He can’t be working for those

blasted bug faces.

I won’t let him.

Maul, your temper.

Oh, no.

(Daemonites yelling)

Get up.

You have to stop them.

PIKE: Let us get you to

safety, professor.

You said I’d be safe here.

A minor setback.

If you’ll just--

(Maul roaring)

What’s that?

PIKE: A slightly larger

setback.

No, no!

No!

(Roaring)

(Both yelling)

What’s with Maul?

He’s gotten too big.

He’s out of control.

(Roaring)

Look out!

No, no!

(Grunting)

MAN: Run, get out of here!

Maul, no!

Maul, Maul.

Calm yourself.

Remember who you are.

Remember.

I’m-I’m-I’m--

Get away!

What kind of hideous monster are

you?

(Crying)

I’ll tell you what kind,

mister.

Maul is your--

Spartan!

No.

I mean it.

No.

Voodoo is right, Spartan.

It is not your place.

What happens between them is for

them alone to decide.

Listen, I don’t know who you

costumed freaks are but I want

you out of here immediately.

Do you understand?

This is a peaceful scientific

expedition.

GRIFTER: Oh, yeah.

Real peaceful.

My sponsors felt the dig

might be subject to attack.

Obviously their only error was

to be underequipped.

Whatever you’re stealing,

please, take it and go.

I’m on the verge of an important

archaeological discovery here.

ZEALOT: Wait!

These sponsors, did they call

themselves Daemonites?

Names are of no concern to

me.

All that matters is my work.

Now please leave.

I’m afraid not, professor.

Whatever you’re looking for

we cannot allow it to fall into

Daemonite hands.

Like it or not, the WildC.A.T.s

just became your new assistants.

(Pickaxe clinking)

VOODOO: Maul, you have to

tell him.

I can’t.

You saw the way he looked at me.

To him, I’m a monster.

Besides, he’s not the dad I

knew.

That man was a caring person.

He would never let his work

become his life.

Now he seems to cold, so bitter.

All that matters is his work.

You there, the big one.

Make yourself useful and clear

this debris.

Move it!

(Grunting)

PROFESSOR: Careful, you

lummox.

That’s a pre-Etruscan column.

Unh, Phoenician.

What?

Nothing.

I heard what you said.

And you’re right.

Who taught you archaeology?

The best.

Oh?

And just who was that?

Sorry, don’t know him anymore

myself.

GRIFTER: So how’s it going

down there?

Fine.

Of course, you’re a major help.

Hey, if I wanted to work

hard, I wouldn’t have turned to

crime.

VOODOO: Oh, yeah?

GRIFTER: Whoa, easy on the

ceramics, Voodoo.



(Sighing)

Nothing.

I could have sworn...

Uh, professor?

I think I found something here.

What?

Impossible.

Let me see.

You’re right.

The support structure here

reveals there was a hidden

chamber.

You’ve got an excellent eye for

archaeology, my purple-skinned

friend.

Almost as good as someone else I

once knew.



As a matter of fact, you remind

me of him somehow.

Something about you.

What?

Nothing.

An old pain.

You wouldn’t understand.

I might.

You?

What do you know of pain?

Have you ever lost a son?

No, but--

(Sighing)

No.

Please, I apologize.

My son vanished years ago.

No trace.

The anguish almost killed me.

All that saved me was my work.

Nothing else matters.

There is nothing else for me to

live for, right?

Uh...

Actually, there’s something

maybe you ought to know.

(Gasping)

I’ve found it.

What?

I mean we found it.

The tablet.

The tablet that tells the

location of the ancient puzzle.

That’s great.

Let me see.

Look, right here.

It says "the ancient puzzle is

located--"

(Explosion nearby)

What?

SPARTAN: It’s the Daemonites.

They’re attacking.

Time to roar, WildC.A.T.s.

(Yelling)

(Grunting)



Whoa!

Hit ’em, WildC.A.T.s.

(Grunting)

GRIFTER: Keep the heat on,

cats.

Yeah, just what I had in

mind.

(Yelling)

(Beeping)

H.A.R.M.: Warning, circuits

overheating.

Then permit me to fan the

flames.

Fire with fire.

(Yelling)

(Coughing)

What’s happening?

You saved my life.

Makes us even, for the time

you saved me...in Meldesnas.

Meldesnas?

But that was--

That was--

Look out!

Get up.

We’ve got to get out of here.

Come on, get up!

Get up!

You’re in great danger.

(Gasping)

Jeremy?

Hi, Dad.

Sorry I didn’t write.

(Groaning)

Jeremy.

PIKE: Keep me covered.

Oh, yeah.

Just make sure the cheques

clear.

Please, Jeremy, get up.

PIKE: Give it up, professor.

Just grab the tablet.

You’re coming with us.

That’s what you think.

(Yelling)

Uh, uh, uh.

No chance.

(Screams)

(Panting)

(Yelling)

Slag, H.A.R.M.

Entering vehicular mode.

Time to bail.

PIKE: Let’s go somewhere

quiet and talk.

PROFESSOR: No.

Dad!

Jeremy.

Hang on, I’ll nail them.

No, you might endanger the

professor.

Oh, my--

(Roaring)

Dad.

Them bug faces got my dad!

Easy, easy, big fella.

We’ll get him back.

That’s a promise.

PIKE: Recognise this place,

professor?

Naturally.

I conducted a dig here about 10

years ago with my son.

After an accident, we abandoned

the dig.

We found nothing.

According to this, you quit

just a little too soon.

(Yelling)

As you see.

What is it?

PIKE: A key to the greatest

power in the universe.

A power that will permit the

Daemonites to rule this world

and the entire galaxy.

(Gasping)

What?

Part of it’s missing.

We need to find that piece,

professor.

Looks like you’ve got a job to

do.

No good.

The Daemonites must be digging

again.

Void can’t get a fix.

Maul, you saw the tablet,

right?

Yeah, but it was written in

Sanskrit.

I used to know it, when I was

Jeremy.

You can remember, Maul.

I know you can.

I’m trying.

It said...



Yeah, I remember.

I know where they are.

PIKE: I told you to find that

missing piece.

No, I will never help you.

You’re not going to have much

choice, professor.

No, no!

(Growling)

Hey, bug face.

Like the man said, no!

(Daemonites yelling)

Let’s tear ’em up.

Hold on, Maul.

MAUL: But, Spartan, they’re

getting away.

No need to chase them.

We got what they were after.

PROFESSOR: But I don’t

understand.

How did it happen?

What have you become?

A hero.

See, there were these good

aliens called Kherubim.

And they crashed on Earth a long

time ago.

And, well, it’s a long story.

Save it.

As long as you’re fighting those

evil creatures that’s good

enough for me, my son.

We’ve got the ancient puzzle.

But there’s a key piece missing.

Not for long.

Going up.

I know exactly where it is.

I dropped it in here 10 years

ago, just before the cave-in.

Here you go, Dad.

The missing piece.

PROFESSOR: There.

SPARTAN: What’s it say,

professor?

It says that something called

the orb is hidden in the Temple

of Themiscrya.

The Temple of Themiscrya?

It’s a legend, like Atlantis.

No one knows where it is.

Huh, a lot of good that does

us.

And that the orb can only be

controlled by She Who Can See

Evil Within.

Now wait a minute.

Is this like a prophecy or

something?

Hmm, but to unlock the orb

requires the code of threes.

"Thrice three and again thrice

three creates four."

Hmm, it’s a riddle.

Could mean anything.

Hey!

Daemonite dogs, they attack

again.

VOODOO: They’re taking the

ancient puzzle.

MAUL: Grifterize them!

(Laughing)

Blasted bug faces.

You okay, Spartan?

Just shorted my circuits a

second.

But now the Daemonites have the

information too.

Guess this means the race

for the orb is really gonna

heat up now.

We must prevent them from

obtaining it first.

The freedom of the galaxy

depends on it.

PROFESSOR: You’ll stop them,

won’t you, son?

You got it, Dad.

And after that, I’m coming home.

I promise.

(Laughing maniacally)
