Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within

Every night, the same dream.

The same strange planet.

But why?

What are they trying to tell me?

It's been 34 years since they arrived on this planet.

And now the days passes the survivors,

forced to live in barrier cities do not live in fear.

I have vowed to end that fear.

I believe my dreams hold the key.

The question is,

Will I be in time to save the Earth?

Where are you?

This is a restricted area.

Do not move!

What is she doing here, captain?

I don't know, but we are getting her out.

You are coming with us.

Behind you!

Hold it right there!

Damn it! Let's move, people.

Two, coming through the wall.

Alright, hold your fire.

Ryan, Neil, let's go.

Just what the hell do you think you are doing?

There is a life form in here.

There has not been life here in years.

Well, there is now.

Life form or not, I am taking you in.

Fine arrest me,

but I am not leaving without that life form.

Gonna be one of those days.

Captain, transport is not going to wait for us much longer.

I understand that.

It's in bad shape.

Please.

Tell me we are not risking our necks for this plant.

I would not even call it a plant. It's a weed.

I would not even call it a weed.

I need a minute to extract it.

Miss, that's the minute we do not have.

I am afraid he is right about that, madam.

Phantoms! We have incoming. Got it.

Captain, we need to get outta here.

Understood, sergeant.

Could you hurry please, miss? Done.

Captain. Yes Neil.

Just so you know, I agree with the, let's get out of here thing.

Duly noted.

Can I have this please? Thank you.

We are surrounded. No shit!

Alright, everybody. Just relax.

Captain, we got to get to higher ground.

Everyone, up top.

Go! Go! Go!

Transport, requesting immediate evac. Affirmative.

Up here!

Captain!

They are right behind you! Captain, come on!

I have got you!

You ok?

Yeah.

Alright, everybody. Here they come.

You ok?

You are gonna be alright.

Can you give me one good reason why I should not arrest you?

I am Dr. Aki Ross. I have clearance to be here.

Not unlimited clearance.

And not without authorization. Listen Captain.

I don't have time for this.

Do you realize you have just risked the lives,

of my squad and me? Look, I don't want to talk about it.

The fact of the matter is,

it was worth the lives of you and your men.

You and your men?

She thinks you are a man. I think she is an idiot!

I know you are not a man. I think you are an idiot too.

Very funny.

Well, I do wanna talk about it.

Did it ever occur to you that maybe we would not volunteer to risk our lives...

had we been given a choice?

Well, nobody asked you to save me.

I don't believe this. You have not changed a bit.

Gray?

Yeah.

Nice to see you too!

Welcome back, captain.

We are clean.

Let's make sure of that, shall we?

I hate getting scanned.

Sir, these scanners are probably worse for us than the phantoms.

There is no probable about it, captain.

These machines are suspected of causing sterility.

And I wanna have a little Neil junior to call me daddy someday.

That's a spooky thought.

Why are you always busting my chops?

People, let's just do this thing, alright?

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

Ok, next.

Looks like you have gained some weight.

It's called upperbody strength, Neil. Get a girlfriend.

I am working on it.

You know my security rating allows me to bypass this.

Not today, it doesn't.

Something is not right.

About this mission?

Or that woman?

Both. Next.

Listen, captain. I think... I don't care

what you think, doctor.

You are getting scanned just like everybody else.

Oh shit! Captain

They got him. There must be a mistake.

You came in contact with a phantom, sir.

Please remain calm. Administering treatment shield.

What level is he? Blue.

He will be code red in three and a half minutes.

We have to treat him now.

I am sorry, but that's impossible.

We will transfer him to the treatment center. There is no time for that.

Get him to the table.

Hang in there captain.

Locating pathogens.

Jesus! Look at that thing.

How much more time? Not enough.

When he reaches code red, the treatment shield won't be able to hold the alien particles.

Engaging bioetheric laser.

What's going on? Where did it go?

What the hell is going on?

We have lost contact.

Infestation is moving deeper.

Tracking. There is no time.

Tracking. There is no time!

You are gonna lose him.

His treatment shield is failing.

Found it!

Come on.

It's alright.

Don't worry.

You will be back to normal in no time.

Doctor,

we need to scan you for infestation.

That won't be necessary.

I will take responsibility.

Hey doc?

Thanks for saving him.

Are you alright? Yeah, but the military has impounded my ship.

What's with her?

What's with her and the captain?

What's with her and that stupid plant?

What?

Forward me the phantom data and everything we have got of the five spirits collected so far.

Yes, doctor.

Spirits?

I thought we weren't supposed to use the S word.

Don't get smart with me.

Now let's see if that plant does the trick.

It's a match.

We have found it.

Yes.

The sixth spirit.

Your little scene today broke nearly every protocol.

How long do you think this would have survived outside the barrier?

Aki, you know there are elements in the Council and military

just waiting for an excuse to shut us down.

Look, twenty years ago, who discovered this energy in the phantoms?

You.

And who proved the same energy source existed in humans and every life form?

You.

You made it possible to harness that energy for...

OVOpacks, scanners, even the barrier.

The Council knows that.

They trust you, Doctor.

We are so close to proving it...

We still need this part...

and this one here. Exactly!

Two more pieces and we have solved the puzzle.

We need to be free to find those pieces.

I want to show you something, Aki.

What is this? Read.

All life is born of Gaia and each life has a spirit.

Each new spirit is housed in a physical body.

Doctor! Go on.

Through their experiences on Earth,

each spirit matures and grows.

When the physical body dies the...

mature spirit, enriched by its life on Earth,

returns to Gaia.

Bringing with it the experiences,

enabling Gaia to live and grow.

It's my old diary.

I wrote that forty-three years ago

when I was the age you are now.

Dr. Sid!

Remember what happened to Galileo?

They threw him in jail because he said the Earth was not the center of the universe.

That could happen to us.

Our ideas are unpopular, Aki.

If you have any notes or records, that could be used against you.

Destroy them.
