Dutch soldiers are patrolling a fortress. Out of the dark you see silhouettes running and jumping. They attack the Dutch soldiers and cut off their heads. A bullet is fired, but cut in half by a swinging sword. A big explosion shocks everyone and some walls are crumbling. Out of the smoke silhouettes emerge and you see a shimmering sword. On the other side of the wall you see a Dutch captain waiting. You see the silhouette jump to attack <the camera moves up to see a full moon taking a red color>
