Terrahawks: The Terrahawks

Scene 5 - Mthrock and his Skeleton Crew

We cut to a new corner of space. Watching over the vast emptiness of space, a gigantic ship looms over the camera. Unlike a typical star cruiser or space pod, a pirate ship slowly moves from the top of the screen from right to left. Its colossal scale and power dominate the screen. The pirate ship pilots through space – the SS Centauri. We see the faded white marks of the ship to the left hand side of the ship, with a skull and crossbones logo on it. It sails through space, cruising steadily as it makes a tremendous noise with its horn. The lights are lit up for the ship as it makes its maiden journey. We see various shots of the impressive SS Centauri. 

One view we see from a high up view, and then examining all across the ship's deck. The ship creeks as it continues to sail across space. The camera cuts inside to reveal the crew. The command deck of the ship lies inside the heart of the boat. A metallic, sliding door is marked with the sign of "Captain's Cabin". The imprint of the sign and the shining metallic door suggests a highly advanced computerised, if not futuristic, interior for a pirate ship.

Various steel pumps are based by the door to allow the ship to supply itself with oxygen. Inside the command deck of the ship, we see a black seat with the person sitting inside facing away from us. We view the control interior showcasing a highly advanced computer console with panels, levers, and buttons. Screens are located above the panels that are situated in the centre of the cabin. The walls feature wires dangling out from them, which still operate the ship's resources as effectively despite them being in an unsafe position. 

More cables tangle from the roof and gigantic multi-coloured pumps are based in the corners of the room. The camera shows a horrifically mutated hand covered in blotchy, green skin and grotesquely long, rotted nails. Pussy spots cover this hand down the man's arm. He has his own unique control panel with a radio communicator from the top of the device. The man with his deep, gravelly, and angry voice tenses his hand and slowly wiggles his mutilated hand as he smashes the railing on his chair.

Mthrock:

Skeletron! Skeletron! Skeletron, I say! Where is that twisted half-wit of a bone brain! Where is he? Where!

Mthrock is a very sick Captain. He coughs and splutters loudly as if he has a chest infection.

COUGH! COUGH! COUGH! WAH COUGH! COUGH! COUGH! UGH! Where is Skeletron, I call for him to come before his Captain.

We see a fellow pirate dressed like a vagrant handling the controls of the ship. His back is turned to us, so we will not see him for the moment. Running past him with a clipboard and pen is a skeleton man. He hurries to his Captain. Skeletron is a sarky, witty character, whose body can flex to great length. So much so that if he turns around his bones will stretch but will not harm him in any way.

Skeletron:

Here, sir. I am here, Captain.

Mthrock:

Well?! What are the findings, Mr. Skeletron. And I hope you have me good results.

Skeletron:

We do indeed, sir. We do indeed. Indeedy so. The craft has run far, sir. Run and hide so far and fast from the great and unbeatable SS Centauri. But the course that they are fleeing to will ascend to somewhere in the system of Solar.

Mthrock:

Yes, yes, Skeletron. I know you would not lie to your Captain, knowing that I would be able to see through you. 

Skeletron looks down at his body.

And what is the significance of this, man? Hmph?

Skeletron:
