DEEP SPACE NINE: "The Reckoning" - REV. 3/9/98 - ACT FIVE     47.

55   AN ANTIGRAVITY CART (OPTICAL)

	abandoned by one of the panicked evacuees. An energy 
	flare strikes the cargo atop it and the containers 
	EXPLODE.

56   THE KAI

	The station SHAKES and she steps to Sisko's side -- 
	fighting the HEAT emanating from the fireball.

					WINN 
			We must go, Emissary.

	But Sisko shakes her off, his eyes glued to the 
	terrible thing taking place before his eyes. If the 
	Prophets win, if good triumphs over evil, Jake dies.

57   KIRA 

	her face trembling with effort, BLOOD begins to trickle 
	from her nose.

58   JAKE

	the VEINS in his face have BULGED from the strain. We 
	can see fear in his eyes.

59   THE TURBOLIFT

	opens and Dax ENTERS. She looks at the combatants with 
	shock and alarm, then moves to where Sisko and the Kai 
	stand, behind Kira and facing Jake. She has to shout 
	above the SOUND of the battle -- the ROAR of the energy 
	roiling close by, the whipping WINDS.

					DAX 
			Benjamin! 

	Sisko turns at the sound of her voice --

					DAX
			Worf's standing by in Ops -- he 
			can trigger the chroniton 
			generator at your command. You 
			can still end this, Ben.

	The Kai reacts to this information, turns to see what 
	Sisko will do. He's torn, looks out at --

60   JAKE (OPTICAL)

	Kira has forced the plasma ball closer to him -- he's 
	clearly losing. His VEINS are bulging, seemingly on 
	the verge of bursting open.
