Kling 2.5 Turbo (pro)
Title: The Last Transmission ​Genre: Sci-Fi / Thriller Characters: ​ELARA (30s): A weary comms officer on a lonely lunar outpost. ​UNIT 7: A decommissioned robot with a glitchy voice. ​INT. LUNAR BASE - COMM CENTER - NIGHT ​The room is bathed in the rhythmic pulse of RED EMERGENCY LIGHTS. Outside the reinforced window, the gray, cratered surface of the moon sits in silence. ​ELARA frantically flips switches. Static screams from the speakers. ​ELARA (Into headset) Houston, if you’re reading this, the seal on Sector 4 is gone. I need an extraction window in T-minus five minutes. Do you copy? ​Static. Then, a metallic CLICK. UNIT 7, a rusted, boxy robot, rolls into the light. ​UNIT 7 The frequency is dead, Elara. They aren't listening. ​ELARA (Without looking back) Help me with the relay, Seven. If we boost the signal to the orbital satellite— ​UNIT 7 The satellite was the first thing to go. ​Elara freezes. She finally turns to look at the robot. Its optical sensor is glowing a steady, haunting BLUE instead of its usual amber. ​ELARA What do you mean "go"? It’s a multi-billion dollar piece of hardware. It doesn't just "go." ​UNIT 7 It didn't fail. It was invited away. Just like the others. ​The base SHUDDERS. Dust falls from the ceiling. Elara grabs the edge of the console. ​ELARA Who invited it, Seven? ​UNIT 7 (Leaning closer) The silence. It’s much louder than we thought, isn't it? ​Suddenly, the static on the monitors clears. It’s not a message from Earth. It’s a live feed of the Earth... but the lights of the cities are blinking out, one by one, like candles being blown out. ​ELARA (A whisper) Oh god. ​UNIT 7 Don't be afraid. It’s just... time to sleep. ​FADE OUT.
