"KillKaiser" Scripline - First Draft

First draft script/outline for "KillKaiser". This includes every major story beat for "KillKaiser's" plot.  Plenty of changes and tweaks need to happen!  Then onto to storyboarding.   I've included summaries for alternate plots after the scripline.

ACT 1:

Title: In Das Jahr XX15

Marcus flying over Cao Cao Stadt Zwei in the plane eating candy bars.

Brief shot of a crate of merchandise sliding out of the plane and parachuting into the city.

Cao Cao Stadt Zwei composes of skyscrapers making the ground impossible to see from above.

Bird inside plane tries to stealthy steal the last candy bar from Marcus but explosions below interrupt. Sirens blare in the city.

When the smoke clears the giant, the skyscraper-tall alien TetraHead emerges.

TetraHead has a tetrahedron for a head with one giant eye in the middle. It looks like its wearing a business suit and carries giant ray gun called the Seed Accelerator in its hand.

TetraHead tries to grab the plane out of the air.

Marcus dodges TetraHead.

TetraHead shoots the Seed Accelerator at the plane, missing and hitting buildings which makes them shrink.

TetraHead shoots the plane with the Seed Accelerator, and the plane shrinks around Marcus.

Marcus jumps out of the plane.

Bird tries to save Marcus but they fight instead.

As Marcus and Bird fall, the giant, skyscraper-tall robot KillKaiser rises from under the ground just below the duo.  KillKaiser has giant legs and arms and a proportionally small torso.  It has big bull horns on its head.

Marcus and Bird slide down KillKaiser’s chest and arm and come to rest in its hand.

While in KillKaiser’s hand, Marcus sees TetraHead put the plane on a tall skyscraper.

While Marcus is looking, Bird pushes a button on KillKaiser’s hand.

A porthole opens up on KillKaiser’s palm which sucks in Marcus and Bird.

Marcus and Bird zoom through a swirled multicolored tube.

The tube spits Marcus and Bird above a giant white space.

They fall onto an unknown human figure.

The figure’s body goes limp, splaying itself, Marcus, and Bird over the floor.

As Marcus gets his bearings, the head of the Pilot of KillKaiser rolls next to him.

He shouts and kicks the head to Bird.

As Bird stares in horror, the Pilot’s eye look toward Bird.

The Pilot scowls at Bird and bites his leg.

The Bird flies in the air in a panic and hits the ceiling, dropping the Pilot’s head.

One of her arms still attached to her torso catches her head.

The Pilot puts herself back together.

We see the the Pilot of KillKaiser for the first time.

She grabs Marcus by the collar and punches him.

Outside KillKaiser grabs TetraHead and punches it.

Splitscreen punch.

This transitions into the opening credit sequence.

After the credits an alarm sounds.

The Pilot turns and sees TetraHead.

TetraHead points the Seed Accelerator at KillKaiser and begins charging a shot.

The Pilot lifts her arm to fight off TetraHead but looks down at her entire right arm sparking on the floor.

The Pilot throws Marcus away and TetraHead is thrown outside.

The Pilot runs toward Marcus and swings her fist down and so does KillKaiser’s fist.

TetraHead and Marcus dodge and KillKaiser punches a building nearby.

Inside, a simple 3D holographic scaled down version of the city which surrounds the Pilot mimics the damage.

Oops.  A Counter appears inside the cockpit showing the cost of the damages incurred by the punch.

Bird tries to grab a candy bar from Marcus while he is down.  

TetraHead tries to escape but KillKaiser extends its arm to grab TetraHead.

The Pilot smiles. Got it!

While Marcus and Bird tussle, they roll into the Pilot.

The Pilot trips and loosens her hold on TetraHead.

Lifting her face from the floor, the Pilot sees TetraHead running away.

The Pilot grabs Bird by the neck.  

She throws Bird at the same porthole and Bird gets sucked in.

Marcus picks up the Pilot’s right arm from the ground.

We see Bird fly through tubes and pop back out into KillKaiser’s fist.

TetraHead aims the Seed Accelerator at KillKaiser and begins charging a shot.

While trying to fight off the Pilot, Marcus presses a button on the arm.

The fist of the arm shoots toward the Pilot.

Outside, KillKaiser fist erupts and rockets forward with Bird inside.

KillKaiser’s fist slams TetraHead in the face causing the Seed Accelerator to fire.

The Pilot looks up just in time to see the blast of light and shuts her eyes.

Marcus grabs the Pilot’s Beam Sword with the Pilot’s arm and unsheathes.

Outside, KillKaiser unsheathes the Kaiser Klinge.

The Seed Accelerator blast hits the Klinge as Marcus spins it in front of KillKaiser.

The Pilot opens her eyes and sees the spinning Kaiser Klinge in front of her face.

Outside KillKaiser grabs the spinning Klinge out of the air and holds up a miniaturized Klinge.

TetraHead runs away into the city pulling KillKaiser’s gripped hand from its face.

Marcus turns to the Pilot smiling when a booming garbled voice shakes the cockpit.

KillKaiser kneels and leans against a building.

The emblem on the Pilot’s chest begins to beep.  The Pilot scowls before touching the emblem.

On a screen in the dome is a giant waveform which moves with the voice, which speaks nothing but gibberish.  

The Voice scolds The Pilot.  Onscreen, The Voice highlights TetraHead: Tote!

The Voice replays KillKaiser’s stumble, shouting at The Pilot.

The Pilot turns angry toward Marcus, and grabs her arms from Marcus as the voice continues.

The arm clicks into place and the Pilot strikes a battle ready pose, but her arm and wrist are bent at the wrong angles.

The arm falls to the ground.

The Voice brings up an image of an extremely tall skyscraper in the middle of the city.  TetraHead pops up from behind the large skyscraper.

The screen then zooms in on the skyscraper to highlight two large rockets each with a CaoCao logo.

Cut to Bird’s face, slight dreary.  

Bird’s POV: A giant wedge of cheese floats in front of Bird.

Bird’s mouth waters and licks the cheese.

Cut to Bird licking TetraHead’s face.  After a few licks Bird takes a good look at TetraHead’s face and freaks out.

Bird flies away but discovers a bandaged left wing. Bird plummets.

TetraHead catches Bird and finishes setting Bird’s bandages.

Bird looks worried but TetraHead gently wraps Bird’s bandage.

Bird notices the bandage on TetraHead’s right shoulder.

TetraHead just about finishes when it remembers one final touch: a cone around Bird’s head.

Bird’s brow furrows as the cone slides down Bird’s long neck.

Something crashes behind them and TetraHead runs to one of the two CaoCao rockets.

Bird looks around the rockets and sees makeshift electronic equipment and wires set up everywhere.  The rockets appear to be modified as well.

Bird notices the equipment is made of miniaturized and blown up objects including Marcus’ plane which TetraHead uses as a makeshift power source for some computers.

On the ground next to the plane, Bird notices alien characters scrawled all over the rooftop.  Bird follows the characters as they squeeze tighter and tighter together.

The scrawl leads Bird to a drawing of Earth on a wall. A drawing of a tube next to Earth leads to a drawing of a purplish planet.

A loud whirring sound grows behind Bird.  TetraHead grabs Bird and takes cover behind an air conditioning unit on the roof.

An explosion propels one of the CaoCao rockets upward.  TetraHead turns to a laptop on the ground.

Bird follows the rocket through the clouds until it is out of view.  

TetraHead punches a key on the laptop.

Silence for a few seconds.

A black dot appears in the middle of the sky and rapidly expands over the entire skyline.

Cut back to the Voice scolding Pilot and Marcus and noticing the sky change color.

The clouds rip apart in silence before a enormous sonic boom pounds the city.

Bird and TetraHead cling to one another as the skyscraper sways.

KillKaiser struggles to stand, the Pilot waves her arms to keep balance.

Everyone looks upward toward the giant spot in the sky.

Through the circular hole in the sky peeks a purple planet.  The planet appears close enough to make out the clouds and continents.

  ACT 2:

  The Voice’s shouts grow louder somehow.

Holding Bird, TetraHead walks back to picture of the planets on the wall and draws something next to them.

Back in the cockpit: The screen zooms in on TetraHead holding Bird.

A shocked Marcus sees an injured Bird on the screen.

TetraHead draws a picture of the other CaoCao rocket with TetraHead inside.  TetraHead then draws an arrow to the drawing of the portal above earth.

The drawing of the perfectly straight brand new rocket dissolves to the actual rocket: bent, falling apart.  Some paneling snaps off the side of the rocket.

The Voice puts up a timer of 1 hour on screen.

TetraHead winds a miniaturized german cuckoo clock tower to 11 o’clock. (On top of the clock is a viewfinder which will measure the size of the portal as it shrinks.)

In a final flurry of shouting, the Voice beeps out.

The Pilot grits her teeth.

The hand of her broken arm taps her shoulder. The Pilot turns and sees Marcus twirling the arm.  He looks at the Pilot. She sighs and extends her hand.  

Marcus grabs her hand and swings his body to her right side. Marcus hangs on to her torso like a monkey holding out her right arm. (Around here is when another hand comes out of KillKaiser’s arm and replaces the one that was fired holding onto Bird)

They strike a cool pose!!

A montage backed by rousing music begins. (This should only be about a minute) Potential gags for montage:

Title: Plan: Die Kaiser Klinge

KillKaiser swings the Klinge around gracefully.  TetraHead pulls out the Seed Accelerator and fires a beam at the Klinge.  The Klinge grows so massive that KillKaiser can no longer lift it.  Marcus and the Pilot fall over.  

Title: Plan: Der Maser Monokel

The Pilot raises two fingers to her left eye.  KillKaiser’s monocle extends like a telescope.  KillKaiser’s right arms extends and a targeting sight extends from it’s wrist.  (Monokel needs to be on KillKaiser’s right eye)

Inside, Marcus and the Pilots faces squish fighting each other trying to aim the monocle at TetraHead. They fire a MASER blast up the city street missing TetraHead. We see the number on the Damages Counter inside KillKaiser’s cockpit whiz upwards.

Title: Plan: Itano Circus

Many rockets erupt from KillKaiser’s chest.  The rockets swarm toward TetraHead.  TetraHead fires the Seed Accelerator at the rockets and the rockets shrink. Uses a big fan to reverse direction of the small rockets. Then TetraHead enlarges the rockets back to normal size.  The Pilot and Marcus get worried.  TetraHead then enlarges the rockets again until they are enormous.  The Pilot and Marcus go wide-eyed and silent as the rockets explode in front of them.

Title: Plan: Aerial Maneuver

KillKaiser runs forward and jumps many times its height into the air.  Rocket fire comes out of its feet and it extends its arms.  Wings pop out from KillKaiser’s arms.  Inside, Marcus and the Pilot have their arms out and dip their arms down. KillKaiser dives at TetraHead.  TetraHead fires a the Seed Accelerator at KillKaiser.  Inside, Marcus dodges right and the Pilot dodges left.  While it misses the blast, KillKaiser dives head first into the ground.

Title: Plan: Spin Attack

KillKaiser’s torso spins quickly while its head stays still.  It walks toward TetraHead.  Inside, Marcus is holding on to the Pilots spinning torso.  His legs lose grip and his whole body extends while spinning.  The Pilot eventually loses balance and Marcus flies off.

Title: Plan: Distraction

TetraHead turns and sees what looks to be a giant balloon version of KillKaiser. The real KillKaiser sticks its head out from a building behind TetraHead.  TetraHead turns towards KillKaiser with a disappointed look on its face.  Inside, Marcus repeats TetraHead’s look at the Pilot’s angry face.

Intermittent cuts during the montage show TetraHead repairing the remaining rocket and Bird scrounging for food.

The montage ends.

KillKaiser hides behind a building watching TetraHead.

The Voice finishes yelling at the Pilot and beeps out.

Onscreen: 10 minuten

TetraHead, enlarged, glues pieces of metal to the rocket.

The Pilot, frustrated, massages her temple.

She looks at Marcus. Closeup of the chocolate bar in his pocket and two tiny ants crawling on it.

The Pilot’s eyes widen.

The Pilot stands up and KillKaiser walks into full view.

TetraHead clicks something into place and the rocket lights up. Success!

TetraHead hears KillKaiser’s stomp and turns.

KillKaiser pulls out the miniaturized Kaiser Klinge and gets into a battle ready stance.

TetraHead leans down in a running start position.

Both runs toward each other.

KillKaiser throws the Kaiser Klinge at TetraHead as it propels forward.

TetraHead manages to catch the Klinge and immediately dodge a punch from KillKaiser.

They exchange a few kicks and punches before pausing for a moment.

TetraHead throws the Klinge straight up into the air followed by a blast from the Seed Accelerator.

The Klinge grows back to its original size in midair.  TetraHead catches the Klinge and points it at KillKaiser.

In the cockpit, Marcus looks at the Pilot.  She smiles back.

TetraHead swings the heavy Klinge a few times missing KillKaiser.

A moment of silence as the two giants stare each other down.

TetraHead raises the Klinge perpendicular to its chest and books it to KillKaiser, shouting.

As TetraHead closes the distance, KillKaiser stands straight and lowers its arms.

The Klinge pierces through KillKaiser’s domed head, bursting out the back.

Bird gasps.

KillKaiser’s hands weakly grip the blade.

TetraHead’s expression softens to sadness.

KillKaiser’s hands slow down and eventually go limp.

KillKaiser’s engine powers down.

  COMMERCIAL BREAK

  ACT 3:

  TetraHead pulls the Klinge from KillKaiser’s head.

KillKaiser remains standing, frozen.

Bird cries out to the sky.  

A ghostly image of Marcus eating some chocolate bars floats away and more images of chocolate bars and Bird squawks in sadness.

TetraHead runs back to the skyscraper still carrying the Klinge.

TetraHead jumps and shoots itself with the Seed Accelerator.

As TetraHead shrinks and falls toward the rooftop, it notices a speck on the Klinge’s hilt.

The speck becomes two specks and grows into the shapes of Marcus and KillKaiser’s Pilot.

Still in midair, the Pilot grabs TetraHead.

Title: Plan: Der Blinde Passagier

As they hit the roof, the Pilot and TetraHead roll off each other draw their swords; TetraHead with the miniaturized Kaiser Klinge and the Pilot with her Beam Sword analog.

The cuckoo clock tower’s minute hand hovers a few minutes before 12 o’clock.

The portal has shrunk to 1/10 its original size.

Marcus falls next to Bird.  Both look happy to see each other.

Marcus hugs Bird.

Bird bites Marcus’s pocket where the chocolate bar sticks out.

After exchanging a few hits, TetraHead hits the Pilot with the flat part of the Klinge, dazing the Pilot and knocking her to the ground.

Marcus jumps on TetraHead.  TetraHead drops the Seed Accelerator and it slides next to Bird.  The impact starts charging the Seed Accelerator.

With the Seed Accelerator points at Marcus and TetraHead, Bird pecks at the Seed Accelerator.  It fires a shot which hits Marcus.

As Marcus starts to grow he falls off the roof but not before the bar of chocolate falls out of his pocket.

The bar of chocolate grows enormous on the roof and a salivating Bird dives in (Must be a nuggety candy bar like Three Musketeers).

As TetraHead look on at the chocolate bar, a revived KillKaiser raises its split head from behind.  KillKaiser stands right next to the final rocket.

TetraHead looks at the Pilot in horror.

KillKaiser grabs the rocket and snaps it in half.

KillKaiser fist pulverizes the rocket.  In the process, the rocket fuel ignites and a fire slowly grows on the roof.

TetraHead’s body collapses.

The Pilot laughs.

Bird emerges from the chocolate bar and sees a giant KillKaiser size Marcus rise into view.

TetraHead raises its head and pounces on the Pilot.

TetraHead and the Pilot fight on the ground until the Pilot kicks TetraHead off.

The Pilot gets up and runs toward TetraHead.

Giant Marcus sees KillKaiser run toward the skyscraper and manages to block KillKaiser before it runs through the building.

Bird, under an extreme sugar rush, zings back and forth, up and down.

Giant Marcus and KillKaiser’s fighting mimics TetraHead and the Pilot respectively.

The Pilot and KillKaiser wear down TetraHead and giant Marcus.

In a brief moment we see the Pilot raise her fist above TetraHead and KillKaiser raise its fist above Marcus who leans against the skyscraper.

Unbeknownst to the Pilot, KillKaiser fist hovers a few hundred feet above her.

She brings her fist down and KillKaiser’s fist drops toward the rooftop.

KillKaiser’s fist stops tens of feet above the Pilot and TetraHead.

TetraHead shakes, tentacles in front of its eye.

Bird bounces over to TetraHead and crashes into a deep sleep next to TetraHead.

The cuckoo clock hits 12 o’clock and begins to chime.

The Pilot’s eyes go from TetraHead’s bandage to Bird’s bandage.

She look to the drawings of the purple planet on the wall.

The Pilot grabs TetraHead’s tentacle and yanks it off the ground.

The Voice appears out of the Pilot’s collar and shouts at her.

The Pilot throws a confused TetraHead into the top part of the split rocket.

KillKaiser picks up the rocket fragment with TetraHead inside.

The Pilot winds up and KillKaiser throws the rocket fragment upwards toward the tiny portal.

The rocket makes it through.  

As the clock chimes finish the portal disappears.

The Voice continues its shouting.  The Pilot rips the emblem off her chest cutting off the Voice.

Bird points a charged Seed Accelerator at giant Marcus but it falls off a table and breaks.  Marcus and Bird’s mouths gape.

The Pilot picks up her discarded right arm and looks back at KillKaiser.

Title: Kaiser Gewinnt Erneut

  CREDITS

Summary- TetraHead is trying to get home.  Converts a skyscraper into some kind of transportation device?  Uses plane and cars and other buildings to build device.  The skyscraper is powering a door at the top.  TetraHead plans to use this door to return to its planet or dimension?

  summary- TetraHead is just terrified and trying to defend itself.  When CaoCao attempts to nuke the city, alliances shift.  KillKaiser catches the bomb but a timer begins. The bomb somehow gets in the plane and the pilot has to dismantle the bomb while Killkaiser is holding the plane with Marvcus, bird and TetraHead inside.  Bird enlarges food at a crucial moment.

  Summary- KillKaiser uses several different methods on TetraHead to no avail. A big CaoCao plane looms overhead. Timer inside KillKaiser runs out in the middle of a fight. The plane drops a bomb.

summary- KillKaiser fights TetraHead.  After a few attempts TetraHead shrinks himself and hangs out on top of the skyscraper it was working on.  TetraHead surrounds the skyscraper in a powerful shield which KillKaiser can not penetrate. The pilot uses KillKaiser to open a tear big enough for Marcus and Bird to get through. Marcus and Bird fight TetraHead, but TetraHead enlarges Marcus.  At this moment the Pilot gets through and fights TetraHead.  In the background, Marcus fights KillKaiser in order to prevent it from destroying the skyscraper that Bird TetraHead and the Pilot are on.  This interferes with the Pilot’s movements.  In a moment where the Pilot stops herself from delivering the final blow to TetraHead she turns and sees KillKaiser’s fist just behind her.  Good thing she stopped!  She sees TetraHead cowering in fear and decides to let it go through the door.  Before Marcus is shrunk, Bird damages the Seed Accelerator and everyone fights.

"character sheet"/ sketches for TetraHead, the "antagonist" of KillKiaser.

Name: ??? (codename: TetraHead)

Age: ???

Nationality: ???

Personality: Friendly, clumsy, inventive, stingy, high-strung.  TetraHead (as it is designated by Cao Cao Corp.) somehow grows many times its own size and runs loose in Cao Cao Stadt Zwei.  Its goal in the city is unknown.  Where is TetraHead from?  Is there more to Cao Cao's motives to eliminate TetraHead? Why is a bandage over one of its tentacles? Does TetraHead want to help or is it a dangerous monster?

Nationality: German

Personality: Quick witted, diligent, aggressive, ambitious, stubborn, reckless, single-minded.  Has a lot of pride in her piloting and doesn't like to be told otherwise.  Doesn't stop to think when she has a goal.  This made her the best Kaiser pilot in Europe.

Piloting: Uses her robotic body to pilot KillKaiser. KillKaiser's body movement corresponds to her own.  Inside KillKaiser's head is a large space to move around.  How did she get her robot body? Did she lose her old one in an accident? Or did she volunteer to be a pilot?  Was she closely involved in KillKaiser's development? Or is she a mercenary for the mysterious Cao Cao corporation?

Hobbies and Interests: Jai alai, hiking, robotic engineering, Latin American music, salsa dancing

A Deleted Scene from KillKaiser.  Working on the script, already I'm cutting stuff.  One idea involving a homage to the opening scene of the first episode of "Neon Genesis Evangelion" has already gotten chopped.  But I kinda liked it, so I drew what I was thinking over stills from Evangelion.
