Underworld: Endless War
Underworld: Endless War is a collection of three short, anime-style stories—whose creation was supervised by Len Wiseman, director of the first 2 Underworld movies and producer of Underworld 3 & 4--each tell a different story, and at three different periods of history to highlight new events of the Underworld mythology. These stories also tell of what happened before the events in Underworld: Awakening.
Part 1
editParis, France - 1890
The war still rages between Vampires and Lycans.
Long ago, Vampires ruled over the Lycans, who were used as bodyguards and treated as slaves.
Then, led by the powerful Lucian, the Lycans rebelled.
Viktor, the ruling Vampire Elder, assembled an elite group of Vampire Assassins, called Death Dealers, to see to the annihilation of the Lycan race.
One of Viktor's newest and most powerful Death Dealers, Selene, hunts a pack of Lycan brothers, who have disguised themselves as Lords, and have taken up powerful positions in town.
Selene
edit- (Voiceover): I have been killing these Lycan beasts for the past four-hundred-years, and it never gets old; just like me. Viktor will indeed be impressed when he finally wakes.
- (Internal Dialogue): No-wonder Kraven wants that castle; this land is filled with Humans, and We will control who comes in and out. How dare these Lycan-scum pose as Lords! They hide in plain-sight! The 'Lords of the Crescent Will'; they are Lycan; they are Dead!
- (About Darius' brothers): I'll get to them, eventually! (Kills Darius)
Darius
edit- (To the Coachman): Faster! Faster!
- (Addresses his Brothers): Vregis! Krandrill! Brothers, we have been found!
- Not to a Death Dealer!
- It matters not! Prepare your bags, it is time to go!
- You know not what comes for us.
- My Brothers will Avenge me, Vampire!
Vregis
edit- Surely you jest, Darius? We are invisible.
- We're not leaving!
- (To Kandrill about Darius): We did as he asked! And now, we must make them suffer for this!
- (To Kandrill about avenging Darius' death): I have a few ideas.
Krandrill
edit- A Death Dealer!? Impossible! How did they find us?
- Let the Death Dealer come!
- (To Vregis about Darius): We should not have left him!
- (To Vregis about avenging Darius' death): How, Brother?

Part 2
editParis, France - 1967
The war still rages between Vampires and Lycans.
Almost seventy-years have passed. While Viktor sleeps, the power-hungry Kraven has seized control of the Vampire Coven. Death Dealers continue to root-out and destroy Lycans across the world.
Selene has returned to investigate the reports of familiar Lycan activity. The Lycan brothers who eluded her over a half-century ago are rumored to have returned to Paris. They have not forgotten the murder of their brother, and eagerly await the return of his Executioner.
Selene
edit- (Voiceover): I am hungry! I am hungry, and I am Angry! Kraven runs our Coven with all the scattershot skill of a Blind Clown. To think, I am marked to be his soon. Time cannot stand still long enough.
- (About Paris): It is, Kraven. Maybe you should have come here instead of me.
- (About Clovis): Erhh!
- (About the remaining two Lycan Brothers): I think I may have caught their scent.
- (Finishes her report): Right.
- (Internal Dialogue, in car on way to the Paris Mansion): I had no-idea those Lycan Brothers would grow into such a threat. It is only a matter of time before they will attack the mansion. They are close by, I can smell their stench all around me!
- (As Krandrill flees, Selene having slain Vregis, and cut-off Kandrill's left arm): Run, coward, run and hide again. Time is my ally. And soon you'll join your Brothers in Hell.
Kraven
edit- (Receiving Selene's report over the phone): Good Morning, my sweet Selene. I hear Paris is quite beautiful right now.
- Clovis is eagerly awaiting your presense at the Mansion.
- Also, any luck spotting our 'Lords of the Lycans'; those twin terrorists are still your main objective, since you failed last time.
- Good. We don't want this 'Werewolf Terrorist' rumor going any further. I'll be waiting to hear you report.
Vregis
edit- The incense can only hide us for so-long.
- (Hearing that Selene is back in Paris): Mmmmm. We'll draw her out, at the Crimson Moon Ceremony, tonight. Lord Clovis will be there in person to preside. She must be tasked with his protection.
- The time we've been waiting for has arrived, Krandrill. We'll take back our home, and avenge our Brother, in one Strike.
- (About Clovis): I'll shut him up.
Krandrill
edit- We wont have to hide anymore. She's here. I saw her. The Death Dealer, who murdered our Brother, is here!
- They'll all be there. At the Mansion, Our Mansion!
- (About Clovis): Boring windbag, does he ever shut-up?
Lord Clovis
edit- (Commencing over the Crimson Moon Ceramony): ...Here and now, we ask for the eyes of Marcus to see us through this powerful night; as we make claim to the Living Will of Anubis. We plead with the Moon's tide to wash away the tired Veins of Control, and give us the new blood we so desire-...
- ...-With the sacrifice, there is always the Joining-... (Someone crashes the ceremony, Clovis is decapitated)
Dialogue
edit(Phone call between Kraven in Ordoghaz, outside of Budapest, Hungary, and Selene in a phone box in Paris, France)

Part 3
editParis, France - 2012
The war still rages between Vampires and Lycans.
It is 45-years later, and everything Selene has known was a lie.
Her Maker and trusted Leader, Viktor, deceived her. It was not the Lycans, but Viktor-himself, who slaughtered her family.
The only ray of hope for Selene is Michael Corvin, a Hybrid Vampire/Lycan, who has the powers of both coursing through his veins.
She and Michael have returned to Paris to deal with the last remaining Lycan brother, but everything is different now.
Humans have become aware of the the existence of both Vampires and Lycans.
A new war has begun...
Selene
edit- (Voiceover): I am Immortal; time flows like water, to day, to week, to month, to year. I've been hunting this last Lycan for over half-a-century, or has he been hunting Me?
- (Voiceover): It has come to this, the Hunted, becoming the Hunters to the Hunted.
- (Voiceover): We are all Death Dealers, now.
- (On the phone with Michael): Michael?
- (On the phone with Michael): It's good to hear your voice.
- (On the phone with Michael): So our contact has finally paid-off.
- (On the phone with Michael): Look for yourself. (Sends him surveillance snapshot sent to her)
- (On the phone with Michael): Be careful. This one is dangerous, and is carrying a very old grudge!
- (On the phone with Michael): Wait for me, I'll be there in a few minutes.
- (Heard Howling): Michael, wait for me!
- (After Kandrill's Last Words) (Dismissively) Yes, say 'hello' to your Brothers for me. (Shoots Kandril through the head)
- (Voiceover): I don't feel 'Victory'; this never ends. (About Kandrill's Last Words) He might be right. We are the hunted. But as long as I have Him, I'm alright. As long as we're together, I can live forever.
Michael Corvin
edit- (On the phone with Selene): Selene?
- (On the phone with Selene): It's good to hear yours.
- (On the phone with Selene): Is he still at the Tati Hotel? (Receives surveillance snapshot sent to her)
- (On the phone with Selene): (Recognises Krandrill) Oh, Yeah, that's him, alright.
- (On the phone with Selene): (Heads towards the Tati Hotel) I'm always careful.
- (Hears Howling): I think we just ran out of time. (Rushes into the Tati Hotel)
Krandrill
edit- ... Ahh, Yes. And, then, as blood drips her precious Hybrid's lifeless corpse, her eyes will lock with mine, and she will know my pain...
- (Catching Michael's scent): (Sniff Sniff) The Death Dealer's Hell-Wolf is here. She'll come, when she hears his pain. It ends tonight, (stars to transform), my Brothers, it ends tonight! (Howls)
- (Dying): Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! (Spits out blood) You think you've won! The Humans are hunting your kind, now! It's just a matter of time (weezes) before you join us in Hell!
