STORY

The Story. as it currently stands.

(helicopters come in, drop off gorillas. we follow a squad of them into the jungle)

-jungle battle. gorillas are winning easily.
-humans begin retreat, Squad 01 follow eagerly
-Lead 01 senses something is wrong, and tries to call everyone back, but it's too late
-a tripwire is set off, and there's a huge explosion
-everything goes black.
-when lead gorilla comes to, he finds the rest of the squad dead, and that his implant is damaged.
-despite this, he sniffs the air, still on task.
-sniffing out the direction of the enemy, he sets off cautiously.
-a snap of a twig alerts Lead 01 to the presence of a soldier, and he looks over quickly. They make eye contact for a split second, and then the chase is on.
-during the chase, due to the malfunctioning implant (NEED TO SHOW CLEARLY), past memories of the gorilla begin to surface. He doesn't understand their significance, and disregards these flashbacks.
-eventually the gorilla chases down the soldier, tackles him to the ground, and is about to inflict mortal damage when he catches his own reflection in the soldier's mask.
-taken aback by his own ferocious expression, he pauses, and then slowly reaches up to touch the glowing implant (he sees this in his reflection)
-choosing his own nature over imposed missions, he rips out the implant with a grimace, no longer fighting another's war.
-fade out, fade in: the gorilla now sits peacefully next to the bewildered soldier, offering grass as a token of friendship.
