In a world where two mothers—one from Earth and one from an alien planet—are bound by fate, they must unite their strength and fight against cosmic forces to save their children and reclaim their futures.
INT. LUXURY APARTMENT – DAY
MARIA (30s), tired but resilient, scrubs a marble floor on her hands and knees. The place gleams, reeking of wealth—lavender polish, expensive perfume. Her fingers are red and raw. She pauses, pulls her phone from her apron pocket.
INSERT – TEXT MESSAGE
ELENA: Leo’s asking for you. He won’t sleep. How much longer?
Maria exhales. Guilt flickers in her eyes. She types quickly.
MARIA (TEXTING) Almost done. Tell him Mama loves him, okay?
She puts the phone away, stares at the spotless floor. The contrast to her life is stark.
INT. MARIA’S APARTMENT – NIGHT
Dimly lit. ELENA (late 20s), Maria’s sister, sits on the couch with a book. She looks up as Maria walks in.
ELENA He cried for you.
Maria nods silently. She heads to LEO’s room.
INT. LEO’S ROOM – CONTINUOUS
LEO (4) sleeps with a teddy bear. Maria kneels, brushes his hair, whispers.
MARIA I’m here, baby.
She sits in silence. Elena appears behind her, places a hand on Maria’s shoulder.
ELENA You can’t keep going like this.
MARIA (quietly) I have to.
ELENA You don’t have to do it all alone.
Maria doesn’t answer. She stands, grabs her coat.
EXT. CITY STREETS – NIGHT
Empty streets, glowing streetlamps, rain-slick pavement. Maria walks briskly. Her breath clouds in the cold air. She notices a MAN (40s) leaning against a wall.
He watches her. She crosses the street.
MAN Hey.
She ignores him. He starts following.
MAN (louder) Hey! I said hey!
MARIA (without turning) Leave me alone.
She walks faster. So does he. Suddenly—he grabs her arm.
MARIA Don’t touch me!
MAN Just talk to me—
She shoves him, tries to run—he yanks her back. Struggle ensues. Then—
BOOM.
The sky tears open. A blinding PULSE of LIGHT slams down. The man is thrown off, disappearing into the glow with a scream.
Maria stumbles back, breathing hard. Smoke and energy sizzle around a scorched circle.
At its center: a glowing, pulsing SPHERE.
Maria stares. Reaches out. Touches it. Her expression changes—shock softens into calm.
A VOICE, not heard but felt, washes over her.
VOICE (V.O.) You are not alone.
Maria closes her eyes. Something has found her.
Here’s Chapter 2: War Beyond Earth adapted into screenplay format:
EXT. SPACE – DEEP GALAXY – VATHORIA – NIGHT
A breathtaking alien world, VATHORIA, floats in the void—crystalline towers shimmer, nebulae swirl in radiant hues. Harmony radiates.
INT. VATHORIAN CITY – SKY GARDENS – DAY (FLASHBACK)
TAT’YANA (late 30s, regal and graceful), walks hand in hand with her son, KAELEN (11), curious and bright-eyed. They admire floating blossoms. Peace surrounds them.
TAT’YANA (V.O.) I told him the universe was ours to explore. I never thought we’d have to flee it.
EXT. VATHORIAN CITY – NIGHT
SIRENS BLARE. SKY burns with descending warships. Explosions erupt in the distance. People scream. Crystals shatter.
INT. TAT’YANA’S HOME – NIGHT
Tat’yana clutches a NOTICE. Her face goes pale.
INSERT – HOLOGRAPHIC NOTICE:
Conscripted: KAELEN
Assignment: Signal Relay Child – Covert Mission
Tat’yana trembles. Rage, fear, determination flood her expression.
EXT. ANCIENT TUNNELS – ESCAPE ROUTES – NIGHT
Tat’yana grips Kaelen’s hand, leading him through glowing tunnels deep under Vathoria. Explosions echo above. She navigates like a trained expert.
INT. ESCAPE BAY – NIGHT
Pods launch in chaos. Tat’yana overrides a terminal manually, enters secret coordinates: EARTH.
KAELEN Will you come with me, Mama?
She kneels, cups his face.
TAT’YANA Always. But you must go first.
KAELEN No—please—
TAT’YANA (soft but firm) You are my whole world. You have to live.
She seals the pod. Tears streak her face. Kaelen pounds the glass. She whispers:
TAT’YANA I will find you. No matter what.
The pod launches. She turns and sprints toward the last capsule.
EXT. SPACE – ESCAPE CAPSULE – NIGHT
Tat’yana’s vessel bursts from the flaming ruins of Vathoria. She watches the planet crumble into ash—her world destroyed. Her son—adrift.
INT. TAT’YANA’S SHIP – TRAVELING THROUGH VOID
Silence. Endless stars. She floats alone, scanning systems, searching.
TAT’YANA (V.O.) Was he safe? Did he land? Was he scared?
INT. SHIP – LATER
Suddenly—A SCREAM pierces the silence. Not heard, but FELT. Human. Female. Earth.
Tat’yana’s eyes fly open. She locks on the source.
EXT. EARTH – ATMOSPHERE – NIGHT
Her ship plummets like a comet toward Earth. Flames lick the sides as she enters the atmosphere.
EXT. EARTH – CITY ALLEY – NIGHT
Maria struggles with the man. Fear, desperation. The moment mirrors Tat’yana’s own fear.
INT. TAT’YANA’S SHIP – NIGHT
Tat’yana sees them on the monitor. Her hand hovers over the control.
TAT’YANA No.
She SLAMS the command.
EXT. ALLEY – NIGHT
A BLAST of alien energy hits like a thunderclap. The man is gone—disintegrated in light. Silence falls.
Maria backs away, stunned. On the ground, the glowing SPHERE pulses softly.
Tat’yana lands. Steps out of the ship. Her eyes lock onto the orb. Recognition.
TAT’YANA (V.O.) My son had landed here.
EXT. ALLEY – CONTINUOUS
Tat’yana approaches Maria, slow and careful. Maria stares at her in disbelief. Alien. But... something familiar.
TAT’YANA (softly, reverently) You are not alone.
The two mothers stand in the quiet aftermath. Strangers. Bound by instinct.
Here’s Chapter 3: The Bond of Parenthood adapted into screenplay format:
EXT. CITY OUTSKIRTS – EARLY MORNING
A hazy sunrise. Dew clings to the grass. MARIA (30s, tired but alert) stands outside a run-down farmhouse, watching the horizon. TAT’YANA stands beside her, stoic and otherworldly.
A beat of silence. Birds chirp.
MARIA You saved me.
TAT’YANA You called out.
INT. FARMHOUSE – KITCHEN – DAY
Old wood creaks. A battered coffee machine hums. Maria hands Tat’yana a mug. Tat’yana examines it curiously, sniffs.
MARIA It’s just coffee. Won’t kill you... I think.
Tat’yana sips. Grimaces. Maria smirks.
TAT’YANA Bitter. But honest.
They share a small, real laugh—first warmth between them.
INT. LIVING ROOM – LATER
Photos of Maria and her son, LEO (5), decorate a dusty shelf. Tat’yana notices them.
TAT’YANA He is your child.
MARIA (softly) My everything.
A pause. Tat’yana nods, eyes distant.
TAT’YANA Mine is older. Taken from me... by war. I came to this world searching.
MARIA Did you find him?
Tat’yana doesn’t answer. She looks out the window—haunted.
EXT. FIELD – AFTERNOON
Leo runs through tall grass, laughing. Tat’yana watches from a distance, her eyes shining. Maria joins her.
MARIA He doesn’t remember what happened. I think that’s a blessing.
TAT’YANA On my world, we mark loss with a silence... deep enough to echo.
MARIA On mine, we keep going. Even if it hurts.
They both watch Leo run, free.
INT. BARN – NIGHT
The orb glows faintly in the dark. Tat’yana places her hand on it. A shimmer of DATA streams upward—holograms of coordinates, images, audio.
TAT’YANA (V.O.) He was here. For moments. Then taken again.
She looks up—tears in her alien eyes.
INT. MARIA’S ROOM – NIGHT
Maria reads Leo a bedtime story. Tat’yana watches from the doorway. The human mother’s voice calms the child.
MARIA (reading softly) “And the little prince looked at the stars and whispered... ‘I miss you.’”
Leo drifts to sleep. Maria closes the book. Turns to Tat’yana.
MARIA We’ll find him. Both of them.
A pause.
TAT’YANA Why would you help me?
MARIA Because I’m a mother. And I saw it in your eyes... you never stopped being one.
EXT. HILLSIDE – DAWN
Tat’yana and Maria stand together, packs on their backs, orb floating between them. Leo stays behind, safe, with a trusted neighbor.
TAT’YANA You do not fear me anymore.
MARIA You’re not the first strange thing I’ve met. Just the first to care.
A beat. They share a look—mothers, warriors, allies.
TAT’YANA Then let us begin.
They start walking—toward the unknown, toward hope.
FADE OUT.
