An eagle approaches a series of domes on the ground: toxic and nuclear waste disposal areas, where the
waste is treated and all volatile material is neutralized the waste is stored in the domes afterward

Commander Rice “are mission is to return to 1918 and attempt to rescue the Romanovs from Siberia
highest priority goes to the four Grand Duchesses”
Cap Brad “ how are we going to get pass the armed soldiers?”
Commander Rice “a rescue squad will enter the cellar and stop the soldiers with quad lasers , that will give
them enough time to evacuate everyone , however success is not guaranteed “
Commander Rice “eagle 4 will hover over the house and on command ,drop the waste cans on the house ,
they will be equipped with explosive detonators so they can be exploded “
Cap Brad “ when exploded , those things have enough explosive power to destroy a small town”
Cap Brad “this will never work, it’s a suicide mission”
Commander Rice “we must attempt a rescue mission to save the Romanovs, highest priority goes to
Anastasia”
Cap Brad “why her?”
Commander Rice “she is believed to be the only survivor, we must make sure she survives even if the
others can’t be saved”
Commander Rice “we will cover our tracks and teach those butchers a lesson”
Commander Rice “dismissed, let’s get going “
Later two eagles fly towards earth
Cap Brad is having trouble keeping his ship level

Cap Brad “Dammit this weight is dragging me down, I can’t level out’
Commander Rice “do best to maintain position and arm the detonators!”

The dog in Anastasia’s hand starts growling, and there jumps down to the floor and runs to the far wall
Commander Rice “come on if you want to live otherwise just stay here and die”
Anastasia “why there’s nothing wrong here, I will go with you anyway”

They reemerge with Communist gunmen in chase
They fire on the eagle as it starts to life off
Lt Dan “we’re taking fire, have to lift up now”
Cap Brad “no you don’t have any one aboard yet”
Lt Dan” our squad is here but there’s no way to reach the girls”
Anastasia emerges from the house, a communist bullet grazes her back, knocking her to the ground and
unconscious
Cap Brad “nooooooooo!!!!!!”
Cap Brad “must I think of everything”
He swings his ship around and opens fire on the soldiers
Laser blasts knock the soldiers down

Cap Brad “shockwave hang on”
The eagle shakes violently and then level off
Cap Brad “massive explosion, ten degrees of the arc of earth”
Anastasia “we’re the only ones left, our family is nearly wiped out”
Cap Brad “no you and your sisters and your brother are still here, besides this almost fits the original
history of the massacre of the Romanovs”
Cap Brad “ all family members were reported dead, expect two bodies were never found yours and Alexi ,
but we don’t know what happened to them “
Anastasia “you mean I survived “
Cap Brad “well we don’t know but uhoh I should never have brought it up”
Anastasia “your hiding something, explain “
Cap Brad “you were the center of an unexplained mystery, no one ever found out what happened , but some
think you survived , others say you died, and others think you were spared”
Cap Brad “your grandmother Marie posted a reward for anyone who brought you to her, but it just brought
imposters and this one imposter everyone calls Anna Anderson”
Anastasia “who was she”
Cap Brad “ some people thought she was you, but most believed she was just a fake, besides there was
evidence that lead most to believe she was a fake”
Anastasia” what do you think”
Cap Brad “she couldn’t be you, your too wild, punky and close to your sisters, she was lonely straight
forward and spoke polish”
Anastasia “I don’t know Polish”
Cap Brad “ of course that’s why I never believed her, and she’s dead anyway”
Cap Brad “we launched a massive search a year before the rescue mission launched, we had eagles buzzing
over Russia like gnats but we found nothing, and no data in Russian records either”
Anastasia “why would I just disappear”
Cap Brad “you tell me, besides its time to go home to 1999”
He pushes buttons and pulls a lever
The ship returns to 1999
Cap Brad “eagle 4 to Apollo Base”

Cap Brad “mission completed, four Romanov girls rescued , Alexi safe, commander’s eagle crashed after
taking a hit to engines, everyone else Romanov and Lunar are lost”

Anastasia “what’s that “
Cap Brad “moonbase apollo ,our home”
