What?
DAVID
It’s his blood type. It’s changed
MUDOW
How’s that possible?
DAVID
I don’t know. His genes are changing
INT. SHAW’S ROOM. NIGHT
A weak and sickly looking SHAW is now dressed in her skin tight blue ‘Weyland’ suit. He groans as she exits the room.
INT. MESS HALL. NIGHT
HOLLOWAY sits on his wheelchair by the table. SHAW enters and approaches him.
SHAW
Holloway?
HOLLOWAY
Elizabeth
SHAW
What happened to you?
HOLLOWAY
Why do I look different?
SHAW
My god. I’m so sorry Holloway. What happened on that ship?
HOLLOWAY
I don’t know but I want to get off this rock as soon as possible
INT. DERELICT CHAMBER. NIGHT
We can only see the back of the large 13 foot tall being. One of the many large organic cages is lowered from the ceiling by organic slimy wires.
INT. CARGO BAY CORRIDOR. NIGHT
RAY walks over to one of the Sarcophagus wall capsules.
RAY
Okay take me down
INT. CONTROL ROOM. NIGHT
DAVID, JANEK, RAVEL, CHANCE, MUDOW, FIFIELD, JOSHUA, SHAW, HOLLOWAY and VICKERS are all in the room. Everyone is looking at DAVID.
JANEK
Okay David start from the beginning and explain to these people what you just told me
DAVID
The computer and I have translated and collated all of the evidence we’ve found so far. The computer was able to translate most of the hieroglyphics and I was able to put two and two together.
EXT. PROMETHEUS. NIGHT
The Cargo Bay lowers from the ship and lands on the ground.
INT. CONTROL ROOM. NIGHT
DAVID
These Beings
JANEK
Terraformers as you called them
DAVID
Right. These Terraformers have terraformed dozens, maybe thousands of planets around the galaxy. This planet is one of them; one of their latest
INT. CARGO BAY. NIGHT
RAY is now in the cargo bay. He walks over the closed door.
INT. CONTROL ROOM. NIGHT
DAVID
They were in the middle of terraforming this world when they found indigenous life forms
FIFIELD
Wait that’s impossible. Nothing could live here. The planets too hostile for life
DAVID
For humans yes, more Earth like creatures yes but life finds a way to adapt and evolve. These Terraformers found thousands of these life forms and captured them and locked them in cages. They began manipulating these life forms DNA and eventually created something, some kind of hybrid off spring
FIFIELD
What do you mean?
DAVID
These Beings spliced their own DNA with that of the indigenous life forms to create a new species. Their plan was to create an intelligent species. They’ve spliced their DNA with many creatures around the galaxy to create new species. But this one went wrong, very wrong
INT. CARGO BAY. NIGHT
RAY presses a button and the door begins to open.
INT. CONTROL ROOM. NIGHT
DAVID
They didn’t just create a new species. They created a weapon. A biomechanical weapon that could wipe out an entire planet’s population. They created thousands upon thousands of them. After one of their crafts left this planet something went wrong and one of these weapons got loose and began killing the crew. The Being piloting the craft crashed it on a nearby planetoid and sent a warning to the craft on this planet
INT. CARGO BAY. NIGHT
A confused and startled RAY is at the top of the ramp and staring outside. He is looking at an organic cage of some sort. He approaches it.
INT. CONTROL ROOM. NIGHT
DAVID
So this planet was therefore quarantined and abandoned
JANEK
Tell them the last bit you told me
DAVID looks at the surprised and weary crew.
DAVID
When I was inside the Alien craft I found some sort of Orrery. It showed me all of the planets these beings have terraformed and helped evolve. One of them was Earth!
SHAW
Impossible!
VICKERS
Are you sure?
DAVID
Yes I’m afraid, it’s true. This being knows we are from Earth and knows we are human. There’s one more thing I haven’t told you. This craft also has thousands of these biomechanical weapons
SHAW
That’s what I saw in my dream!
DAVID
You’re dream?
SHAW
My god!
