FADE IN.
INT - H.I.V.E. LABS - MED SHOT - HALLWAY
COLONEL STEVE TREVOR, dressed in a skin-tight dark-blue ARGUS stealth suit with a mike and an eye-piece, is moving stealthily through an ultra-high tech base, his gun drawn and ready.
STEVE
Dum. Dum. Dum. Dumdumdum. Dadada, dadada---
KATRINA (via radio)
I know your orders are to maintain audio contact, but we meant commentary, not theme music.
STEVE
I figured you were getting bored of the usual chatter about long corridors.
KATRINA (via radio)
I think we can deal with it.
STEVE
Okay. The corridor is long and deserted. There are doors every thirty feet ot so, but are basic labs. I have an inventory of the labs' content.
KATRINA (via radio)
Good. I assume the usual materials research?
STEVE
Pretty much.
(Steve stops)
Just a moment.
Steve moves into the shadows.
THREE H.I.V.E. guards weilding black staves pass by his location.

(Normal view)
The three guards bring their weapons to bear.
Steve pops out of the shadows and move behind the guards.
The guards separate, shifting into battle stances.
Steve fires at one, killing him.
The other two charge him.
Steve dodges them, fiiring at another guard and killing him as he passes.
The remaining guard backs off and turns to run, pressing a button next to his helmet.
Steve swings at him knocking him out.
STEVE
Just dealt with three guards. I have abot three minutes to find it.
KATRINA (via radio)
Okay.
STEVE
Just found my way in.
Steve hits a door with a keypad. He studies the keypad for a moment and presses a button on the back of his glove. The glove lights up and he preses the keypad.
He door opens.
Steve looks inside.
He shifts weight from foot to foot.
STEVE
Hell.
He starts running up the hall.
STEVE
Katrina, I found the item. Ready the extraction. (beat) We're going to need The Amazon.
Steve disappears into the depths of the corridor.
INT - NIGHT - LONG SHOT - THEMYSCIRAN EMBASSY
There is a formal ball in full swing, with delegates in their best.
DIANA PRINCE, an athletic woman in a flowing gown, strides strides past the dance floor.
She joins up with ETTA CANDY, a woman with plenty of curves, is poking at a buffet plate.
DIANA
Well, this is particularly dreadful.
EMMA
Enjoy the moment. I'm sure that someone will break it any time.
Diana lets out a large sigh.
DIANA
I always did hate these things. They always did seem pointless.
EMMA
Only in your all-female warrior culture. Well, I'm going to enjoy this shin-dig even your little dark cloud.
Emma starts to move to the dance floor, where a number of men waiting for partners are talking.
Diana pokes at Emma's plate.
DIANA
Guess she does have a point. I am the ambassador, after all. Yay me.
Diana joins a group of delegates and begins talking politics. They laugh at something she says.
Emma is floating across the dance floor when a well-dressed man rushes down the stairs, narrowly avoiding the people on the stairs.
A ROAR is heard.
Everyone looks to the stairs.
CHEETAH, a human/cheetah hybrid woman, jumps down the stairs.
The man sees her and tries to brake.
He falls down the stairs.
He lands directly in front of Cheetah.
Cheetah stretches out her arm and extends her claws.
Diana grabs a stack of plates to throw them.
Emma glares at her.
DIANA
Ever since Berlin.
DIana grabs a knfe and tosses it.
Cheetah claws at the man.
The knife misses Cheetah.
The knife bouces off the wall and flips around.
The knife hits Cheetah, dazing her.
Diana runs up to the man and throws him out of the way.
Cheetah shakes it off and ROARS at Diana.
Diana hits her with a straight punch.
Cheetah flies backward and collapses unconscious.
The crowd is stunned.
Diana composes herself and walks back to her group.
The crowd cheers.
Emma gives Diana a thumbs up.
DIana returns it wih a smile.
EMMA
I was wondering when that was going to happen.
As Emma returns to dancing Embassy security swarms over Cheetah in the background.
EXT. - MED SHOT - EMBASSY
People are leaving.
Diana and Emma are walking down the stairs.
DIANA
I can't believe how lucky I got.
EMMA
Yeah. Usually she goes down a lot harder.
DIANA
She wasn't after me. This time.
EMMA
Any way to convince you to leave this alone until morning? Maybe even let your highly-trained, very professional security staff do their job...?
Diana smirks.
EMMA
Yeah. Thought so. I'll leave you your little investigation.
DIANA
Sure you don't want to help? Not even a little?
Emma glares at her.
Diana smiles.
Emma smiles as she looks past Diana at a gorgeous man approaching them.
EMMA
Besides, I have some investigating to do of my own.
Diana smiles as Emma walks off.
DIANA
Off to the videotape.
Diana walks back to the embassy.
