Tronzler/Sam, alternate lightjet scene anonymous March 1 2011, 18:37:11 UTC
So, about a month back I got the chance from a friend's dad who worked on the original tron to see a Tron panel at UCLA, and while there we got to see some deleted scenes and the making of and all that jazz and meet the makers. It was awesome and cool and super crazy.

In one of the alternate scenes they cut out, near the end of the movie during the lightjet fight, the tail of the light jet Sam, Quorra, and Kevin are flying in gets chopped off and sends Sam flying down into Sea of Simulation. I'm guessing that Tron's "I fight for the users" scene was the same because instead of Clu stealing his light jet as they're falling, it was Sam. I can see WHY they cut this out, because that could have TERRIBLE, but how about this; they also deleted a voice clip from the movie version of that scene, in which after Tron rams into Clu's, after Sam yells "It's over!" he also yells "Tron fights for the Users!" I just thought that was super cute and sad and while I can why they cut it, still, sadface ( ... )

His likeness twisted with rage and furious hurt, lashing out at him. Flynn gasped as the kick connected with his gut, knocking him back and down. Clu strode towards him, but Flynn struggled up, driven by panicked urgency, and tried to run past Clu to the portal. Sam.

The program grabbed him and threw him down, and Flynn’s head hit with a crack as he skidded on the smooth platform. He looked dazedly up and for a moment, hope rekindled-he was closest to the portal, nothing obstructing the path. Then Clu filled his vision, and Flynn fell back as a gloved fist connected, another grabbing, holding him down. He closed his eyes, overwhelmed by hopelessness, the bitter irony crushing as his mistake stopped him from doing things right. Water hit his cheek.

Water.Flynn opened his eyes and saw Clu. The program loomed over him, body tense, furious, fist clenched in his maker’s robe as he shoved Flynn into the ground. His face was a mask of rage, mouth partly open as if searching for words. His eyes stared, accusing. Wet ( ... )

:D Amazingly glad to hear this.

And sorry about the cliffhanger; LJ's character limit hates me and I was too sleep-deprived to tinker much with lengths. Working on that now...

This is fascinating, how you've woven your AU and the real happenings together. I find myself hoping that Sam and Tronzler will come swooping in in time to rescue Quorra and Flynn.

…Onwards?

A glowing figure dropped from above, and Quorra was there, disk raised with her left hand, light cable retracting towards her right even as the beam katana extended from the other side of her rod. She raised the blade, blocking Clu’s advance, gaze fixed on her enemy even as her voice pitched towards Flynn.

“Get up, Flynn. Sam needs you. Go.”

Her words pierced the veil of panicked confusion that had pressed at him as he stared up at the pair. Clu had halted, disk in hand, teeth bared as he stared with pure hatred at Quorra, eyes flickering to Flynn with something desperate. Quorra was a blaze of white tinged blue, her circuits seeming to glow with defiant strength as she stood above, guarding him, protecting him. She was magnificent. But she was right, Sam needed him, and he had to go, had to move now. He struggled to his feet, turning, stepping towards the portal, now only a few paces away. And then he turned, disbelieving, at her whispered addition.

“This is mine.Her voice was quiet and overflowing with unmistakable ( ... )

“Flynn.” Even from here, he could see the curving, calm smile as her head lifted, tilted partway towards him. “This is what I want.”

He knew it was, and that hurt above all else. Past her, Clu let out a small sound and edged forward, halted by Quorra’s blade. But he wasn’t looking at her; he was fixed on Flynn, desperation and hunger in his face, raw anguish bleeding through as his creator met his gaze.

Flynn closed his eyes, shame and need and guilt tearing him apart.

Sam.“Goodbye, Quorra ( ... )

This is fantastic so far. The parallels between Sam and Quorra and Clu are utterly convincing, and Flynn's agony at seeing them fight is all too real. Poor Flynn; he wants so badly to save everyone, even as they want to kill. :(

Great job, can't wait to read the rest!

:D Thanks to all for commentary, reviews, etc. Apologies for the trauma. I promise… less immediate trauma in the immediate future?

Next up: Sam thinks! (It’s not his natural state; it takes a while :) ). I may try to put up another bit tonight, but… sleep… -_- Definitely more soon, though.

Well, this is boring.

Sam leaned back against the cliff and gave a halfhearted glare at the water. The sea was fairly gentle here, washing against the shoreline in soft waves that reminded him more of an overgrown lake than ocean tidal forces. Though if there wasn’t a moon… Right. Ignore logic.

He let his gaze wander from the too-dark water across the rocky shore. Nearly two hundred feet of grey-black stone before the cliffs rose up on either side to match the “natural” wall behind him. It wasn’t sheer by any means, and he’d climbed it-only to find more of the same: broken slabs and barren ground as far as the eye could see. He’d dropped back down.

But the tiny cove was empty. No sound but the water, nothing to see but dark rocks, dark water ( ... )
