A pilot and guard on contract job extinguishing humans.
PILOT man ...after titan6 this dirtball's dead, but hey, I'm glad we teamed up... Where'd you get that arm?
GUARD woman ...Dorado...
P. Whoa!
G. Dorado's the best... next time I want the head. ...nice ride you got here...
P. What's the id on this job?
G. ... block 6 target human, full breed, unaltered, name's Wolf...
P. ...real bank for unaltereds...
G. ...everyone wants one... but who'd want to stay un...
P. ... hey, I got a idea... forget extinguishing the human, let's go indie on the mark, eat the night, take it in. We're just
contract, no one checks default ops...
G. I like the way you think... maybe we hit Dorado for matching wiring later... ...ever take a human?
P. no, everything else... block 6! tracking target...
G. I want to exit and take it with you...
P. ...someone's gotta stay shipside... ..alright, alright, grab the MO before we lock base... no backup, let's make this
fast, after 3 time quads we're bait, who knows how many more are out here...
G. ...I heard stories...
P. ...mostly going to be stories - very few humans caught alive...
CLOSING SOUNDS, PAIR OF WALKING SOUNDS
P. look! ...got it in my reds! see it?
G. what's it doing?
P. who cares?
G. ...is that hair on it?
P. ...dirtball human's growing... ears? A tail?
G. ...it's as if, like - I can feel like it's eyes all over me! It's body is so... that's why everyone wants one you want to
just touch it... why is it getting down on the ground?
P. wow! it just ran away fast...
G. now what?
P. I don't know, let me see the MO.... hey, it says 'do not exit ship to track human,' let's go back...
WALKING SOUNDS
P. is that the human in the ship?
G. ...and you're out here...
P. what's that mean?
G. ...eat the night...
LOUD SHOT, ONE PAIR OF FOOTSTEPS
