PM 12:16:38

(Camera faces an exterior wall of a small space in which Alan is placed in. Shaking occurred all around making the scenery blurry and unfocused. Alan tried to make his voice heard despite the loud shaking and trembling in the small pod that he was in.)

"Change of plans. There's a small moon orbiting the planet." His voice was heard. "I'm about to check it out. It's strange…this planet did not show up on my charts. It should not even be there. At this point, I'm at a loss because now it seems that I have been misled. I have to check these planets individually to find the ship LOURDES. I'm about to start with the moon."

Clearing his throat, Alan began to speak again. "I'm now about to touch down on the rock. The shuttle just breached the atmosphere. It's a bit interesting. Most moons don't have an atmosphere but I'll take what I can get at this point and we're-well I'm seeing cloud cover. I'm sorry the uh…camera is not facing it and I could point it to the window but unfortunately I have to steer."

(His voice continued to be heard despite the rumble and tumble the ship was giving.)

"The main planet up ahead however, is unlike anything I've ever seen before. It's dark, deformed and basically terrible. I could see why terraforming would be quite strenuous. It wouldn't be that impossible to make this planet suitable for human life but I'm just implying that it would indeed take time and money to make it so."

(Scenery changes)

PM 12:33:45

(Camera is facing a shuttle door entrance. Several blast points and small dents decorated the exit. Then it panned down where Alan's space boots were shown. In a blur, the camera faced the door again.)

"Hey I'm back. Sometimes the camera can change scenes when necessary. So don't be surprised when it happens. This is done because of time and editing. Anyways, it's going to take a few hours before my ship lands. I'm about to go into cryo-sleep. It has been an exhausting day for me. Hopefully the computer will wake me. In the meantime, the ship is on automatic pilot and-" Alan was cut off.

SCENE MISSING.

01:04:55

(Int. Cryo-pod. Camera showed cold air flowing throughout the pod. The glass door was completely frozen. Nothing solid but the air was seen. Slow, soft beeping was heard indicating heartbeat readings. For a few minutes, the scene did not change. Everything was quiet despite the monitor and the cold air hissing. After a few more minutes, a loud banging was heard. It grew louder and louder. Constant banging reached a point in which a sound that sounded like a crash was heard. Footsteps were heard from the other side of the glass. They were slowly approaching. A hand was seen from the other side of the glass, wiping the frost away. A woman's face was shown. Her beautiful brown eyes turned narrow when she saw inside.)

PM 01:14:23

(Camera shows the woman on the other side of the glass holding a pickax in with both hands and raised it to smash the glass. As soon as it made contact, cracks were shown on the glass. She raised the ax again to strike the glass.)

(Static is shown and scenery changes)

PM 01:48:54

(A new setting was seen. The wall on the right side of the screen had cracks shown along with paint chipped off. Dirt practically decorated the walls. The camera showed a dark room with only red light shining through the window from the left side. The bad surroundings made the area dilapidated. Several beds were stationed at the right hand side stationed in rows. There was soft commotion. But it was indistinct. Alan was nowhere to be seen. The camera seemed to positioned on a table. Several voices were heard in the room, although it was difficult to make out to whom the voices belonged to.)

"Now that this man is here, we can finally go to the planet."

"He's the only one who can!" a woman protested impatiently.

"Well, think now, because I have to decide whether or not to tell the company that an accident occurred here."

"Why do you say 'whether or not'?"

"You know why!"

"Hey, look...that device there? It's blinking."

(Faint footsteps were heard until they grew louder as they approached the camera. Hands picked up the portable device. Screen went from facing the ceiling to the ground and then to the person's face. The woman was brunette and tanned giving her a strong, healthy look. Her face was fully shown and it indicated curiosity. She frowned in which afterwards she spoke.)

"It's some sort of digital recording device. It's on right now."

"Turn it off. No one needs to know about this. Besides, we have bigger issues to deal with." the other woman said.

(Camera faced the ground.)

"Fine, but what happens when he wakes up?"

"Hopefully he'll know how to survive here."

STATIC IS SHOWN.

PM 05:04:56

(Int. An intensive care room. Red light shown through the window giving the room a horrible look. Camera sees a person lying on a bed looking completely asleep. It is Alan. Slowly, Alan's incapacitated form grew on the screen as the camera came closer to him. The camera was then settled on a silver plate. No longer was it pointing at the two people. The camera focused completely on the ceiling.)

"Come on...wake up." the woman's voice from before was heard. She sounded a bit restless.

(A sound that constituted a groan was heard. Alan's voice was sounded out.)

"I said wake up!" she ordered.

"What the? What is this?" Alan finally said. Groaning was heard as well as the creaking of the bed itself.

"You're in no condition." the woman's voice began. "You're still in a hypersleep induced state. Besides you'll never leave here anyway..."

"Why is it so damn hot?"

"I forgot you're a newbie. You're not going to withstand a red giant in this system, sweetheart. The lungs in your system are not yet getting used to the atmosphere, let alone the air. I'm Evelyn and I was the one who found you in that wrecked shuttlecraft of yours."

An alarmed Alan then cried out. "Whoa! Whoa! What do you mean 'wrecked?'"

"You crashlanded here, sweetie." Evelyn said indifferently. "We found evidence of your starboard engine being faulty and which eventually exploded."

"Oh my God!" Alan muttered.

(Rustling of tools being used.)

"I'm going to give you a stabilizer..."

"How come you can breathe this air?"

"I trained myself to."

"You said there was a red giant?"

"I did. You're on Joyly 218. It's a small moon.

(Alan was heard gasping out loud in shock.)

"Wait...what do you mean I'll never leave here?" the tremble in Alan's voice suggested that he was a bit nervous now.

No answer was heard from the young woman.

(Footsteps were heard approaching the camera. Evelyn's face was shown. Her tanned complexion and sharp features were completely shown for a second before she turned the device around where a sweaty Alan was fully seen, looking drained and weary.)

"Hey what are you doing with my camera? I need to get out of here." his voice was croaking. Alan moved his legs to the side of the bed so that he could sit but found it difficult. He then coughed and clenched his throat. "What is this place?"

Evelyn answered a bit reluctantly."This is a prison. A woman's prison to be exact. Here's your strange device. I didn't know it was on, here."

(Camera approached Alan's bed and the camera landed on the covers giving a full view of the blanket material. Hands touched the lens, it was then turned around and on habit, Alan put it on his shoulder. Evelyn could now be seen fully. She had a lean build and long, wavy hair. Her chest gave out in a proud position.)

"A woman's prison?" he asked.

"We're 115 inmates including several guards and the headmistress herself. She told me to keep an eye on you."

"You haven't answered my question. Why can't I leave?"

"You're the only one who can contain the threat on the planet next to this one." Evelyn said forcefully.
