but they're beatable.

Don't you see? It's over.

Ain't nothing over.

There are still people out there

fighting to survive.

It's our job to help them survive this,

or die trying.

You're an officer for Christ's sake.

Do your job.

Oh, what now?

The guidance computers

are losing power.

Can you fix it?

The computer core mainframes

are on D Level.

Whatever's doing it is down there.

Can you get me an image?

Seems like the link is still intact.

- It's Kyne.

- What the hell is he doing?

What happens

if those computers go down?

The engines will stop firing correctly.

The weight of the rock we're hauling,

combined with the planet's gravity,

will cause this ship to fall out of orbit.

We'll basically just crash

back into the planet.

He's trying to scuttle the ship.

We've got to stop him.

That's suicide. You'll never make it.

I told you.

We save these people,

or we die trying.

You hear that?

Yeah.

Help. Please.

Please.

Please.

Help! Help!

There are people

trapped somewhere

Irons, you know where

this vent leads?

This is the main cooling duct

for the personnel barracks.

Okay, we're going to

get these guys out of here.

- What about Kyne?

- We'll get to him.

These people need our help.

Come on.

We need a diversion.

I'll get their attention

and lead them away from the hatch.

You two enter through the cooling vent

and get the survivors

moving towards the bridge.

No. I'll get their attention.

You two get those guys out.

No time to be a hero.

I'm not a hero.

Just a man.

We're here to help. Come on.

Come on, we've got to move quickly.

You got a boyfriend?

You want to see him again, right?

Mm-hmm.

Good girl.

Must have faith.

Where's Irons?

Holy creatures,

transform me into your humble servant.

Show me the path to enlightenment

as you alter my flesh

and free my soul.

So that's how they work.

Let's go.

Sh*t.

Shh.

They haven't seen us yet.

The entrance to the computer core

should be up ahead.

[alarm beeps

We got a problem here.

Hmm. The lock's been

disabled from the inside.

Kyne.

I can bypass it. I need some time.

We don't have time.

Hey Vincent, you know why

I really took this job?

You can tell me later.

My old man always said

I was chicken sh*t.

He wanted me to join the service.

But I wasn't big on the idea

of getting my ass shot off

in some war zone back home.

Ramirez, they're getting closer.

Give me the all hope is lost

speech another time.

I've always been afraid

of getting into a fight.

- Can you believe that?

- Ramirez, I swear I'll...

I guess it makes sense

as to why I took

a security job, you know?

Badge and a gun

pretty much makes it easy

not to get into a fight.

Will you shut the f*** up

and open that door?

It wasn't until all this sh*t went down

that I realized it ain't

like my old man says.

I'm not a coward.

I just don't like confrontation.

Yeah, that's great. Let's go.

I'm losing it, Alissa.

They're in my head,

and I want to hurt you.

What the...

What are you doing?

The door won't hold them for long.

I'm giving you a head start.

Knock it off, they'll kill you!

It's been an honor

to serve with you, boss.

Ramirez.

You stupid bastard.

Warning, orbital integrity compromised.

Planet fall estimated in three hours.

Get away from

that control panel, Doctor.

Alissa?

I'm doing what has to be done.

The Marker must not return to Earth.

So you're going to kill us all instead.

We have been deceived into believing

that there are space gods.

Unitology is a lie.

That is the mechanism of control,

the lies that brought us here

under false pretenses.

Get out of my way!

You don't understand!

This is an infection designed

to take over our entire race.

It will do anything it can

to spread anything!

No.

An infection can be stopped.

Defiant to the end.

I wouldn't have expected

anything different from you, Alissa.

A good soldier never admits defeat,

even when it's staring you in the face.

Guidance system offline.

Access denied.

Guidance system offline.

Access denied.

What's the access code?

Kyne. Kyne!

Bridge. Are you there bridge?

This is Alissa Vincent.

If you can hear me,

stabilizers are back online,

but we need to move

farther away from the planet.

White? Chic?

Anybody.

Looks like I'm hoofing it.

Great.

What's wrong?

I'm right here!

You can't get close to it, can you?

This is what kept you sealed up

in that God forsaken rock.

Vincent. Vincent.

Boss, you got to wake up.

There's one more thing you got to do.

Finish the job.

Save the ship.

How?

My name is Alissa Vincent.

I was... am the Security Chief

on board the Ishimura.

I may be the sole survivor.

We encountered an alien life form,

they have taken over

the bodies of the crew.

The colony was lost.

My team is dead.

The Ishimura is under their control.

It is my belief

that the artifact we discovered

on the surface

is somehow responsible.

It has driven us mad.

Turned us against each other.

If you find this recording,

the Ishimura and the artifact

must be destroyed.

Tell those on Earth

that many people fought

and died bravely.

Don't let us be forgotten.

This is Chief Alissa Vincent

signing off.

Venting sequence initiated.

Warning, venting in 20 seconds.

Here we go.

# Twinkle, Twinkle, little star #

# How I wonder what you are #

# Up above the world so high #

# Like a diamond in the sky #

# When the blazing sun is gone #

# When the nothing shines upon #

# Then you show your little light #

Ishimura, this is the Kellion.

What is your status? Over.

Ishimura, come in, over.

Is anybody there?

Ishimura, are you reading?

Ishimura,

prepare to be boarded.

# Twinkle, twinkle little star #

# How I wonder what you are #

# Up above the world so high #

# Like a diamond in the sky #

# When the blazing sun is gone #

# When the nothing shines upon #

# Then you show your little light #

# Twinkle, twinkle all the night #

# Then the traveler in the dark #

# Thanks you for your little spark #

# Though I know not what you are #

# Twinkle, twinkle little star #
