Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars Page #3

---

"Good luck"?

Yes. We're going

to need it.

Both hands in the air.

[SHRILL BEEP]

[GROANS AND SCREAMS]

He's-- He's in my head!

[ALL GROANING]

So you're in, right?

Where will I find him?

In the Martian Outback.

Somewhere along

the Valles Marineris.

[FOOTSTEPS]

PSI, a**hole.

[CARL GASPING]

Carl?

[GASPING]

MAN:

You're under arrest.

Carl?

Carl.

Carl Jenkins

in custody.

We got Jenkins.

[GROANING]

Put him under.

CARL:

Damn you, Amy.

[BLOWS LAND]

[ALARM BUZZES]

Simulation, my ass.

[PANTING]

You know, even Bugs learn

from their mistakes.

Maybe we need

an easier sim, sir.

Hot LZ 1 is kind of where

it all starts, lieutenant.

Unless you wanna run

baby-Bug petting zoo.

[ALL BREATHING HEAVILY]

Well, I think we could

all use a win.

[LOW RUMBLE]

[ALL GASP]

What's that?

Bug plasma.

What the hell?

Bugs on Mars? Is this the next

training sim, sir?

[RUMBLE]

Negative. This is real world,

trooper.

Get everyone

into battle armor.

Yes, sir.

[]

How bad is it?

There's a major Bug outbreak

on the surface.

Including Plasma Bugs.

Yeah. I kind of

figured that.

RATZASS:

It's been classified as

a level-four infestation.

The Second Mars

Mobile Infantry

is deployed and engaged

on the ground.

Level four?

Do you know what that means?

RATZASS:

We're getting visuals now.

[PEOPLE SCREAMING

OVER MONITOR]

We just lost our connection

to the Federation, sir.

We're sitting ducks up here.

Initiate evacuation protocols.

Yes, sir.

[RUMBLE]

Direct plasma hit to flight bay.

I'm taking Lost Patrol

down to the planet.

You're going in with those

Martian kids? Are you crazy?

Someone's gotta knock out

those Bug batteries.

We've trained for it,

so today's the day.

You're a brass-balled trooper

through and through, Rico.

And goddamn it,

I'm going with you.

[]

Hey, Ratzass, come on.

Let's move.

COMPUTERIZED VOICE:

Emergency systems activated.

What's your status,

lieutenant?

Uh, power suits on, sir.

Get everyone on the boat now.

This station is gonna blow.

What? Uh, I'm sorry, sir,

c-could you repeat that?

Code red.

Evacuation protocol initiated.

Get everyone

on the boat now.

We got Bugs to kill.

Oh, my God.

We're all gonna die.

You do not have

permission to die!

[GRUNTS]

[PANTING]

RICO:

Someone wanted me here.

And whoever it was already knew

there were Bugs on Mars.

Colonel Rico.

Lost Patrol.

Today's the day to prove

yourselves.

We descend to the Mars surface

immediately.

Mars is your home, troopers,

and today she needs your help.

Wipe out every Bug that you see,

and take back your planet.

ALL:

Yes, sir!

[]

Training's over,

troopers.

Sergeant Major Ratzass

is coming along for the ride.
