Movie Title: P.A.S.T Robbie Larios Act 1: Scene 1: EXT: MILITARY
TRAINING
FACILITY – DAY Project Surge is a top secret military program
established
by the United Nations to create the world best and strongest soldiers, all of the world’s militaries are to send they’re best and
brightest to a secret military training facility to become the world’s
first super soldiers. The initial number of trainees was 100,000 but
after
the augmentations’ (medical procedures to make them into super-humans)
only
400 survived. The two people who have funded and over saw the project
are
Major General David Christianson and Colonel Anthony Young. Both of
them go
down to the screening area to evaluate the candidates. GENERAL
CHRISTIANSON
How are you doing’ son? CORPORAL FLORES: (SHOCKINGLY) Just Dandy sir!
GENERAL CHRISTIANSON: Just dandy, been a while since I heard that
COLONEL
YOUNG (TO ANOTHER MARINE): How bout’ you, how are you holding up?
SPECIALIST TUJIAN: Sir! I’m doing fine sir! COLONEL YOUNG: Good to hear
son. The two officers go down the aisles giving the marines
inspiration.
When they go outside to see if anyone is doing anything they are
surprised
to see four marines running forties; the marines that are running are
Sergeants Shawn Thomas and Steven Phillips, Captain Earl Valero and
Major
Devon Malone. The Colonel and General walk over to them and to them
it’s an
amazing sight. COLONEL YOUNG (SHOCKED) Holy crap! Am I seeing things or
are
you four running forties! MAJOR MALONE: No sir you’re not seeing
things,
Major Devon Malone, 1st platoons commander! GENERAL CHRISTIANSON: Good
to
meet you major, now then who are these other three knuckle draggers?
The
other three snap to attention, salute and give their names and ranks.
SERGEANT THOMAS: Sergeant Major Shawn Thomas Sir! But everyone here
calls
me Barron because I always wear a blue scarf around my neck! Sir!
COLONEL
YOUNG: Barron eh? Well I guess it suits you but he wore a red scarf,
not a
blue one. SERGEANT THOMAS: I like blue sir! COLONEL YOUNG: Cool I
guess,
and you two are? CAPTAIN VALERO: Forgive the rudeness sir I’m Captain
Earl
Valero, commanding officer of 3rd squad SERGEANT PHILLIPS: Oh and I’m
Sergeant Steven Phillips! Pleasure to meet you sirs! GENERAL
CHRISTIANSON:
Good to meet you Marines! Now you four set an example to the rest of
the
marines! Understand Me! ALL FOUR MARINES AT SAME TIME: Aye Sir! GENERAL
CHRISTIANSON: Alright as you were, ALL FOUR MARINES AGAIN: Aye Sir! Act
1:
Scene 2: General Christianson andColonel Young walk around the main
building some more and go to the weight rooms, before they enter the
room,
they could already smell sweat, hear the grunts of two men, and feel
the
great weight they are lifting. GENERAL CHRISTIANSON: (SHOCKED) Are you
kidding me? How much weight is that? Lieutenant Jenkins looks up and
drops
the bar, breaking the shock absorbing pad. LIEUTENANT JENKINS: Excuse
me
sir! I’m Lieutenant Howard Jenkins. Third in command of 2nd platoon
this
guy here is— (cut off before he can introduce his spotter) GENERAL
CHRISTIANSON: Stop! Let him tell me his name, so what’s your name son?
The
spotter snaps to attention. CORPORAL MOBUNTO: Corporal Mohammed Mobunto
also known as “Mo Mo,” I’m also part of 2nd platoon, and sir the
republic
of Congo gave you its best sniper! GENERAL CHRISTIANSON: Well it’s good
to
meet you son, and for the record, you still have to beat Johnson,
Takorev,
and Nakamura, in the sniping competition. CORPORAL MOBUNTO: Trust me
sir,
the Republic of Congo produces the world’s best snipers! GENERAL
CHRISTIANSON: Well you better live up to your title, now then how much
weight is that? They look at each other and shrug their shoulders,
signaling they have no idea. Two more marines walk in. LIEUTENANT
COLONEL
ACKERS: (INSTANTLY SNAPS TO ATTENTION) Oh crap! Lieutenant Colonel
Jason
Ackers, Commanding officer of 1st platoon! PRIVATE 1ST CLASS ACKERS:
And
I’m private Joey Ackers, this idiot’s brother, oh sir the weight
they’re
lifting is 520 pounds. GENERAL CHRISTIANSON: And how did you know that
I
asked that marine? PRIVATE 1ST CLASS ACKERS: I heard it from down the
hall
sir, you know super hearing? COLONEL YOUNG: (Surprised) Crazy as hell,
I
didn’t know they gave you guys super hearing. GENERAL CHRISTIANSON:
Apparently they did, well your also pretty smart, it’s a good thing the
marine stereotype doesn’t apply to you. LIEUTENANT COLONEL ACKERS:
Stereotype? You mean the one where we’re all knuckle draggers sir?
PRIVATE
1ST CLASS ACKERS: Yup apparently. COLONEL YOUNG: So how did you find
out
the weight of this crap son? PRIVATE 1st class ACKERS: Well the bar is
50
pounds, and there are four 50 pound plates on each side and add the six
45
pounds plates on each side, and you get 520 pounds. GENERAL
CHRISTIANSON:
Damn so you marines have super strength, super intelligence maybe,
super
speed, and super agility? COLONEL YOUNG: Don’t forget super sight and
endurance! GENERAL CHRISITANSON: Whatever the point is you guys are
super
human! The first generation! But you’re not only super human; you’re
super
marines, not of the United States but of the world! You are the best of
the
best! The marines look at the general and have the faces of little
children
when they see Santa for the first time. They were inspired. GENERAL
CHRISTIANSON: Hopefully, you aren’t the last generation either. You
guys
make us proud, do you understand? LIEUTENANT JENKINS: Um… yes sir, what
about you? Are you two like us? CORPORAL MOBUNTO: Yeah are you like us?
The
officers look at each other and think to themselves and look at the
curious
marines. GENERAL CHRISTIANSON: Not yet marines, but we will be you can
count on that. CORPORAL MOBUNTO: I hope you make it, because of the
original 100,000 only 400 of us survived. COLONEL YOUNG: Don’t worry
marine, we’ll survive this. They salute them and leave the weight room,
leaving not knowing whether or not they would survive the augmentation
test. Two weeks later, both General Christianson and Colonel Young
survive
the test. They can still command they’re battalion, through whatever
comes
their way. End act 1. ACT 2 SCENE 1: TRAINING CAMP – AFTERNOON All 400
of
the marines, are ready to train in their new super human abilities,
they
all have no idea what hell awaits them. COLONEL YOUNG: Good afternoon
marines! ALL MARINES: Good afternoon sir! COLONEL YOUNG: It’s good to
see
so many smiling faces here today! Mainly because you don’t have a
choice
right! ALL MARINES: (LAUGH CONFUSED) Aye sir! COLONEL YOUNG: Today, you
will all be going through combat training both live fire and
sim-unition,
But first to test you’re new strength and speed, I want you to drop and
give me 100! The Marines look at one another they drop, busting them
out
like they got fire on their arms. It takes them less than a minute to
get
them done. COLONEL YOUNG: (SURPRISED) Well, that was faster than I
expected! RANDOM MARINE: Too easy sir! COLONEL YOUNG: Who the hell just
said that? Only one marine raised his hand, it was Corporal Cody Hinez.
COLONEL YOUNG: Too easy huh, well you and only you drop and give me 120
more! CORPORAL HINEZ: Aww! COLONEL YOUNG Drop! Corporal Hinez dropped
to
the ground and busted them out, as soon as he reaches 110 push up he
can’t
do them anymore, until some of his fellow marines give him some morale
boosting words, in which case he did 130 push-ups. COLONEL YOUNG: Now
then
i hope you guys don’t interrupt me again! Today you will be running
forties
on that “football field! Now I love football, I coached it, I played
it,
hell I even smelled it! MAJOR MALONE: So today we’re testing our speed?
COLONEL YOUNG: (SARCASTICALLY) Naw, you’ll be cleaning the latrines,
which
isn’t sounding that bad at the moment! Yes you will, haven’t any of you
ever ran a forty before? So I need two marines down at the end of the
field
and get two stopwatches. Then I need a pair of runners understand? ALL:
Aye
sir! Two Marines, moved down the field grabbed the stopwatches and
waited
for the two runners. The first two to come up were Sergeants David
Nakamura
and De’Andre Shields. COLONEL YOUNG: Marines on your marks, set! Hit!
Both
of them ran extremely fast, they completed their forties, in two
seconds.
MARINE SPOTTERS: Two seconds sir! Both runners! COLONEL YOUNG: Nice,
still
way faster than I expected. Alright next two! The Next two came up, got
in
their stance, and ran, again both ran fast. Two hours later, all four
hundred of the marines got through the forties, almost all of them got
at
least 2-3 seconds, only one marine got less than that, Specialist Greg
Darsey got 1.87 seconds, the fastest time among all the marines.
COLONEL
YOUNG: Ok marines, now that you have finished your speed training it
time
for the combat portion, today you will be facing the elite 101st Heavy
Armored Defense Division, they are the best unit in the world at the
moment, they are undefeated in war games, but we’ll show them won’t we
marines! ALL: Aye sir! LIEUTENANT COLONEL ACKERS: We’ll beat them sir,
we’ll make you proud! COLONEL YOUNG: (PROUDLY) I know you will, but
that’s
the reason why we made you. Oh and by the way, general Christianson and
I
are going to join you in this war game. We’ll fight with you marines!
All
of the marines looked very surprised they read about their combat
operations in the gulf and in beating down anti-NATO rebels. The Next
Day
all governments and militaries received an urgent message from NORAD
(North
American Aerospace Defense Command) It read: To all governments and
militaries of the world, at approx. 0333 hours, sensory satellites that
orbit Charon picked up multiple objects outside the orbit of Neptune.
These
objects do not appear to be comets or any other space debris, but they
appear to have the outline of sharks, whales, and other water
creatures, we
know that two mining freighters with twenty-five miners onboard each
have
been destroyed. But we cannot assume they shot them, but in any case
all
space fleets have been put on full alert. The Neptunian fleet is
sending
three scout vessels to report on the objects. At their speed it is
estimated they reach earth in about 5 months but it can be shortened if
they have light speed capabilities. If they are hostile, defend
yourself
accordingly. Sincerely, Commander of Aerospace operations, General Ryan
Hewitt GENERAL CHRISTIANSON: We’re being pulled to San Diego; the war
games
have been called off. Looks like we got to test our skills on whatever
comes at us, there. COLONEL YOUNG: Damn, well I’ll tell the troops to
suit
up. You know we got that new battle armor today right? GENERAL
CHRISTIANSON: Good, we’ll put it to the test. ACT 2 SCENE 2:
