Transcript
{Cutscene}
- John-117: "Upload the Spire locations."
The Weapon's avatar materializes in his hand.
- Weapon: "All of them?"
- John-117: "All of them."
Multiple holograms of Spires appear around the Pelican's troop bay.
- Ship AI: "Coordinates received."
- Pilot (COM): "Ummm... it looks like someone has marked forty-two locations, which, would be crazy, right?"
All but one of Spires disappears. The Weapon pulls the remaining Spire hologram towards them.
- John-117: "This one?"
- Weapon: "It was the source of the attack."
- Pilot (COM): "Attack?"
The cockpit door opens and the Pilot looks out at them.
- Pilot: "What's she talking about, Chief? Is everyone trying to kill you?"
- Weapon: "It kinda seems like it. (realizes) Oh, wait... (cheerfully) You're being sarcastic. (to the Chief) He's fun. I like him."
An alarm blares as a series of explosions erupt outside.
Zoom in on the Pilot.
- Pilot: "Am I dead already? I-I mean I must be. I mean this is a punishment, right?"
- Ship AI: "WARNING. WARNING. WARNING."
The Chief enters the cockpit. Outside, more explosions burst around Echo 216 as Banished anti-aircraft guns continue to fire upon the Pelican.
- Pilot: "Yep. This is death."
An AA gun directly in front of them opens fire and scores a direct hit on the Pelican.
- Pilot: "No! No!:
The Pelican banks to port and we swing to see the Pilot in his seat as sparks fly from the forward console.
- Pilot: "No no no no!"
The Pelican levels out right in front of another anti-aircraft cannon. It fires, hitting the Pelican. The Pelican makes a half-roll to starboard as the camera swings around to show the pilot.
- Pilot: This isn't happening...!
The camera swings around to show the Pelican coming in for a crash landing in a river as the pilot speaks.
- Esparza: I'm going to have to make an emergency landing!
Water splashes up over the cockpit window as the Pelican lands in the shallow river.
- Pilot: Hold on, Chief.
Out the window, we see the Pelican headed straight for a large piece of debris. As it collides with the debris, the camera swings around to show the Chief and the pilot. The pilot grits his teeth and we hear a faint thud. The screen cuts to black.
We hear another faint thud and a soft ringing of the ears. As the screen fades back in, the pilot is unconscious, leaning forward in his seat. The Chief grabs his shoulder and pulls him back. The pilot regains consciousness with a heavy gasp.
- Pilot (angrily): No! Get...! No! You! I can't! Stand this! Oh, you are...!
- John-117 (calmly): Breathe.
- Pilot (irritated): No! You don't get to tell me what to do! You don't get to tell me anything! We're...
The pilot looks at the Chief.
- Pilot (irritated): Are you even listening?!
The Chief is staring out the cockpit window.
- John-117: I count three anti-aircraft cannons.
- Pilot: Three what?!
The Chief turns to leave the cockpit.
- John-117: You'll be safe here.
- Pilot (irritated): Oh? I'll be safe?!
He lets out a mirthless chuckle. The pilot's seat slides back as he unbuckles. He gets out of the seat to follow the Chief to the passenger/cargo area.
- Pilot (irritated): Safe?! I haven't been "safe" since I found you! I found you, remember?!
The camera pans around the Chief to the aft of the passenger/cargo area.
- Pilot (irritated): You were out there on your own, and you'd still be there if it wasn't for me! I thought I was going home!
The camera pans around to face the Chief.
- John-117: There won't be a home if we don't stop the Banished.
The camera continues around behind the pilot.
- Pilot: You keep saying that. We're outgunned, outnumbered.
The pilot turns to point.
- Pilot: I know I saw Condors over there.
He pivots back around, clenching his fist.
- Pilot: I'm going to dig through them and find one with a working Slipspace drive, and when you're done with this war we get away from here.
As the pilot finishes speaking, the Pelican's bay door opens.
- Pilot: Far away.
- Pilot: Wait here.
The Chief heads for the door. The pilot quickly catches up, grabbing the Chief's arm.
- Pilot: Woah, woah. Please.
He lets go of the Chief's arm.
- Pilot: Let me see what I can find.
- John-117: Cannons first. When I get back...we can look. Together.
The pilot lets out a small huff through his nose and walks back towards the cockpit.
- Pilot: Okay, big guy.
Pilot retreats back into the Pelican.
