[Exterior - Space - Day]
[MIX THROUGH]
Admiral Frey and GC cruising through the Alpha Quadrant. They pass though an asteroid belt.
[We TRACK with them]
[CLOSE-UPS of Admiral Frey and GC sitting at their command chairs as they travel]
[MIX to another TRACKING SHOT of them cruising through space]
They come to a nebula and stop, looking ahead intently. Their eyes light up.
[Sound FX of fight]
[CUT TO their eyeline]
In a clearing on the other side of the nebula is a wormhole looking anomaly. At the entrance to the nebula a tremendous fight is going on. A huge Black Dreadnought, painted in flat black, with no identifying marks is fighting a slightly smaller Cruiser painted green with the initials "HS" painted on the primary hull.
[CUT BACK TO Frey and GC]
They watch, growing more impressed as they watch the fight.
[CUT BACK TO the fight]
The Green Cruiser fires at the Black Dreadnought, who avoids the blow with a skillful side-slip and fires back, knocking the Green Cruiser's Phaser 1's out.
[CUT BACK TO Frey and GC]
They are even more impressed.
[CUT BACK TO the fight]
The Green Cruiser has fired a particularly nasty volley of plasma, much more powerful than the Black Dreadnought's shields. Admiral Frey narrows his eyes, wondering whether the Black Dreadnought will survive.
[CUT BACK to the fight]
The Green Cruiser closes on the Black Dreadnought, who weasels on the first volley, HETs and starts to close on the Green Cruiser.
[CUT BACK TO Frey and GC watching like they are at a tennis match]
[Sound FX of the fight reaching a climax]
[Four almighty explosions, then Silence]
[CUT BACK to see the Green Cruiser a glowing hulk]
The Black Dreadnought is slowly approaching the pitted ship.
[Frey looks at GC, Frey nods and they move forward]
[CUT BACK TO the Black Dreadnought tractoring the Green Cruiser into a convenient asteroid]
[Frey and GC approach him]
Frey: You fight with the strength of many starships, Captain.
Black Dreadnought: Who dares to challenge Scott Bruno?
Frey: I do not challenge you.
Scott Bruno: Stares impassively and says nothing.
Frey: I am Frey, Fleet Admiral of XenoCorp.
[Hint of a pause as he waits for a reaction which doesn't come. Frey is only slightly thrown.]
... I seek the bravest and the finest Captains in all
the world to join me in my gaming league at XenoCorp ...
[Scott Bruno remains silent]
Frey: You have proved yourself worthy. ... Will you join me?
[Silence]
Frey: A Captain of your strength and skill would be the chief of all my Pilots...
Scott Bruno: Never.
Frey: You make me sad. But so be it. Come GC.
[As he moves, the Black Dreadnought bars the way]
Scott Bruno: None shall pass.
Frey: What?
Scott Bruno: None shall pass.
Frey: I have no quarrel with you, brave Captain, but I must cross through this nebula to the wormhole on the other side.
Scott Bruno: Then you shall die.
Frey: I command you, as Fleet Admiral of XenoCorp to stand aside!
Scott Bruno: I move for no man.
Frey: So be it!
[Frey sounds Red Alert, powers up the weapons, and approaches the Black Dreadnought]
[A furious fight now starts lasting about fifteen seconds at which point Frey delivers a mighty blow which completely severs the Black Dreadnought's left warp nacelle at the engineering hull. Frey hails the Black Dreadnought triumphantly.]

Frey: Now move aside worthy adversary.
Scott Bruno: (Glancing at the bodies strewn about his bridge) 'Tis but a scratch.
Frey: A scratch? Your warp nacelles off.
Scott Bruno: No, it isn't.
Frey: (Pointing to the nacelle floating in space) Well, what's that then?
Scott Bruno: I've had worse.
Frey: You're a liar.
Scott Bruno: Come on you pansy!
[Another ten seconds furious fighting till Frey phasers the Black Dreadnought's other warp nacelle off, also at the engineering hull. The nacelle, plus about 20 crewmen, float in space.]

Frey: Victory is mine. (sinking to his knees on the bridge) I thank thee O Bethke that in thy ...
Scott Bruno: Come on then.
Frey: What?
[The Black Dreadnought phaser 3's Frey's ship, Frey's shields absorbing all the fire. Frey gets up and sits back in his command chair. The Black Dreadnought limps after them launching mines the whole way.]
Frey: You are indeed a brave Captain, but the fight is mine.
Scott Bruno: Had enough?
Frey: You stupid bastard. You haven't got any warp power left.
Scott Bruno: Course I have.
Frey: Look!
Scott Bruno: What! That's just a matter/antimatter containment breach!
[launches a probe at Frey]
Frey: Stop that.
Scott Bruno: (fires phaser 3's at him again) Had enough ... ?
Frey: I'll have your impulse engines!
[Frey is probed again]
Frey: Right!
[The Black Dreadnought phaser 3's him again (with absolutely no effect) and Frey torpedoes the Black Dreadnought's impulse engines]

[The Black Dreadnought maintains it's hull integrity with difficulty]
Scott Bruno: I'll do you for that.
Frey: You'll what ... ?
Scott Bruno: Come Here.
Frey: What are you going to do, vent plasma on me?
Scott Bruno: I'm Captain Krumb! I'm invincible!
Frey: You're a looney.
Scott Bruno: The Black Dreadnought always triumphs. Have at you!
[Frey phasers the engineering hull clean off the primary saucer section... the Black Dreadnought's primary hull floats upright.

Scott Bruno: All right, we'll call it a draw.
Frey: Come, GC.
[Frey and GC start to cross the nebula]
Scott Bruno: Disengaging, eh? You yellow bastard, Come back here and take what's coming to you. I'll probe your scanners off!
