AMV Script - Ace Combat: The Equestrian War · 3:39am Oct 10th, 2012
-I already put this as a comment in the story itself, but I thought it deserved a better place, so here it is.-
This "AMV in script form" is of what I imagine would be the opening for Ace Combat: The Equestrian War. What is an "AMV in script form"? Basically, it's like one of those 'music videos' you watch on YouTube or anime, but in script form. Just imagine the two English openings for Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's while reading this and there you go. It's not much of an explanation, but I'm not good at explaining this.
Now Playing: Hyper Drive - Cass Dillon
{'flash scenes' of the following: a sunrise, Firefly, Rainbow Dash, Lightning Bolt, Cloud Kicker; then 'flash scenes' of: Fluttershy, Derpy, Medley, Gale in the controls, Firefly ready for takeoff}
{'flash scene' of Firefly opening her wings, then of a close-up of Black Star}
Going fast makes me feel alive.
{flash to close up for Firefly's face, the zoom out to reveal her in flight with the rest of the Mirage Squadron as the camera 'rotates' around them as they soar across the sky}
My heart beats in hyper drive.
{scene of Rainbow Dash making a loop-de-loop; then cut to her descending as a mach cone forms around her}
Do you think you can win? Only if I lose.
{scene of the seven pegasi flying in formation, then cut to a squadron of griffons, then cut to a middle scene where the two are about to clash}
Just let destiny choose.
{scene of Mirage Squadron running along a cloud runway and take flight as they reach its end}
I can hear you breathin'.
{'camera' rotates around a burning town, Firefly on one side and Black Star on another}
I can see you comin'.
{'camera' slowly rotates continuously around Cloud Kicker and Lightning Bolt in a grey nimbus background, who are back-to-back and look ready for takeoff}
I can feel the wind.
{cut to scene split into six, showing each of the bearers of the Elements of Harmony; two of these (Fluttershy on the right and Rainbow Dash on the left) then 'cover up' the other four as the characters in them get ready for takeoff as well}
It's blowing me around.
{Derpy hugging Dinky as the 'camera' spins around them; 'camera' continued to spin as scene fades to Medley looking up with high hopes as scene fades to black}
Take a shot at me runnin' side by side.
{flicker to shots of the following; Gale in mission control, Twilight Sparkle with Spike on her back, Applejack leading a supply convoy, Rarity designing the vests, Pinkie Pie looking serious as she aims her party cannon somewhere, the Wonderbolts standing together, and a silhouetted scene of Mobius and a few other pegasi}
It's a blur... as I go by.
{close-up of Firefly's forelegs as they are extended forward, then 'camera' swiftly turns to show her right side; cut to an image of her flank and tail flowing in the wind, then to her as she makes a quick turn around a cloud and zooms toward the 'camera'}
I can hear you breathin'.
{cut to view of the Griffin Palace Halls of Gryphus, where 'camera' moves forward, bypassing the following griffins; Echo, Scythe, Vulture, Razor, Greyback…}
I can see you comin'.
{…Red Cyclone, Black Star, then end at General Silverbeak; scene of Firefly looking to the sunset as the 'camera' zooms out of her face and…}
I can feel the wind.
{…turns to face it like she is as she stands on a building's ledge}
It's blowing me around.
{fade to scene of Wonderbolts flying overhead as the 'camera' looks up, then the following cutie marks appear; Firefly's at the center, Fluttershy's below it and Rainbow Dash's above it, Lightning Bolt's at the upper right and Cloud Kicker's at the upper left, and Derpy's at the lower left and Medley's at the right}
See the sun arising.
{flash to scene of a sunrise in Cloudsdale}
Fire in the sky.
{'camera' pans up and shows the Mirage Squadron flying overhead in the afternoon sky}
Greatness thrusts itself into our lives.
{shot of Firefly looking to her left, then cut to her view as she sees Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Derpy, then shift to her looking to her right, and cut to her view as she sees Cloud Kicker, Lightning Bolt, and Medley; then scene cuts to a front shot of the seven as they then bypass the 'camera' as it looks up to the afternoon sun}
{in a flash, the title "Ace Combat: The Equestrian War appears"}
