Chapter Twelve

The Price for Freedom

Part Two of Two

Hello there.

Bert.

Mira.

Oh shit.

Hello, Boer.

Why don't you drop your gun?

You first.

Did not expect to see you up here.

Likewise.

I took the first monorail over.

Guessing you followed me.

That wasn't our intention.

So, uh, what do we do now?

That's a very good question.

Are you gonna shoot me?

Are you

or we could just stand here looking like fools and wasting our time?

You really want to shoot me, Michelle?

How do you think that'd turn out?

I suspect a lot like if you did the same.

Uh,

what the hell are you two talking about?

You know, Bert,

I wasn't lying when I said I enjoyed your company.

Hmm, so

why do we have to do this

at all?

I mean, with everything else going on, we just want to kind of get the hell out of here.

You know what?

Fine.

You're right.

You want to leave?

Leave.

Get out of my city and don't ever come back.

Gladly.

Uh, uh, uh-huh, yeah, there just is one other thing.

Seal took Shirley.

Who?

Oh,

your gun.

You came all the way back here for that?

You really are obsessed.

She's uh, she's in her room.

Well, go on, then, Bert.

I won't stop you.

Well, uh, all right, then.

Um,

just be going

over there to get Shirley okay?

Just so you know,

families are still very active.

Things may be different now, but we're very much the same.

I'm starting to get that.

I wanted to make sure you knew.

One thing at a time.

You may not be fully aware as to what's going on here,

but you will.

Founder!

Reunited at last.

Ain't gonna let you out of my sight again.

Are we done?

That's it.

Good.

Go.

I have bigger things to attend to now.

No thanks to all of you.

Well, maybe if you hadn't been a gambling, kidnapping, two-bit slave-driving bitch, none of this shit would have happened.

Bert!

I am gonna miss you.

Safe travels.

But seriously, get the fuck out.

We're gone.

You just can't keep your mouth shut, can you?

Hey, I'm old, huh?

The jaw comes unhinged more easily with age.

Yeah, you know how it is.

Uh-huh.

Did you get it?

Can we go finally?

Yeah, come on.

You know, the elevator is working.

We could use that.

It's faster.

You sure?

The quicker, the better at this point.

You got what you needed?

Yep.

Golden Shirley.

How I missed thee.

Here, take the rest of your bullets.

It's the last thing I was able to get from the truck.

You gotta tell me.

Tell me the whole story about what happened to my poor bastard.

You really have a hard time letting go of objects, don't you?

Well, you notice that?

And naming them.

You should see his DVD collection.

It's huge.

But he won't let you borrow any.

Because you never return them, or they end up scratched, or you put the wrong disc in the wrong jackets, or...

Forget the checkpoints.

Push the infected back, kill whatever we can.

And if anyone spots one of those Westport assholes, then we

oh shit.

Well, speak of the devil.

Uh, we're uh just passing through.

Don't mind us.

Stop right there.

The boar told us we could go.

She just said to leave the city.

She's up on the penthouse floor.

You can ask her.

Did she now?

More and more lies.

This is a slippery bunch.

I shit you not.

She actually said that?

Yep.

You never said anything about running into her.

Didn't have time to.

You know what?

I don't care.

Kill them.

Kill them all.

Get undercover!

Surely it's time to shine!

Glad we have this now!

Move!

Get to the exit.

Got one.

I have no weapons.

Speak for yourself.

Once you stuck behind the slot machine.

Focus on moving to the exit.

We have to get out of here.

Stay low.

Rush between cover.

Oh, shit.

Riley!

Riley!

Trapper!

Shit!

I got you!

I got you!

Okay,

maybe I don't.

I can carry her.

I got you, Riley.

Hold on to me the best you can.

Get outside!

I'll cover you!

Go, go, go!

Oh, no!

That's a lot of blood.

Hey, don't look at that.

Ab wound.

Shit.

Just keep pressure on it.

Move behind the cars.

I got our rear.

Easy now.

Don't worry about it.

Focus on who keeps shooting.

Bird, cover our asses.

I am.

Keep them from coming out of the building.

Riley!

Riley!

Bird, focus!

I have her!

How many?

It's not great.

Not horrible.

Bullets stuck in their deep.

Just fuck it, Riley!

Hold still!

How is she?

Alright, change your plans.

We need to get to the airport now.

Riley needs help, none of us can provide.

What about the rally points?

Listen, if we don't get her to a hospital, it'll just end up being four of us that leave this place.

Shit!

So we fly out of here, right?

Whatever we have to do, she's my best friend, damn it.

I am your best friend.

News to me.

Well, then.

You haven't been paying attention.

You're my best friend, too.

Alright, Burton Kelly, cover our exit.

Head south.

Which way will through this door here?

I got it.

I got it.

Then go.

Come on, man.

Come on.

These readers are old.

Weathered.

Give me a second.

Look, we don't have many more.

Give me your motto pistol thing.

Nicoma, hang on to me better.

Yeah, all right.

Whatever.

Will, come on, man.

How do I, how do I reload this thing?

Almost.

Will!

got it

Man, I was too close

here,

I'll reload that for you

Three more shots make it count.

Oh, so that's how you do it

Oh, look who's feeling better now.

Mutts

Can't walk still, but...

But you can talk.

Wonderful.

Did you guys see that last one?

It was like a first gen or something.

The infected are turning people in there.

Most likely one of the other guests who got trapped.

This is gonna be a shit show.

Okay, uh, not much further.

We got- we got about 10 minutes left.

Oh, man.

No stress at all, right?

The planes in the airstrip are going to be on the other side of the freeway.

Wait, could Vincent have left already?

He couldn't have gone the same way as us.

He'd have to go around.

He'd have to...

Planes!

I see planes!

Just hold on to me tight, okay?

We need to get across the road.

I got this side.

Will, you're shaking, man.

Breathe, okay?

We'll be alright.

Alright, we're almost there.

No, no,

it's not that.

It's something else.

I haven't had my medicine.

I mean, do we need to go back or...

No, no, no, no.

Just keep going.

Come on.

My feet are funny.

Nick, there!

Over by the gate, trying to get into the airstrip.

Is that...

Uh-huh.

Vincent.

And that's Vera on the ground.

Give me the pistol.

Oh, uh...

Oh, okay.

Reload.

You do it.

Sure.

The hell?

Again!

At a distance, it doesn't seem

very accurate.

That's all the cartridges.

You're empty.

Nice, Super.

More than one way to take him down.

Will, hold Nakoma.

I can handle it.

Maybe not.

Just get me to one of those planes.

I got her, Nick.

Go!

The fuck you doing?

The fuck are you doing?

Why the hell are you doing this, you fucking traitor?

Come here!

Get the hell back here!

Hey, where are you going?

What does it look like?

Out of here!

Surprised you made it through that attack.

Thought the infected got you.

Damn lucky, I tell ya!

Come on now.

Leave Vera behind.

Put her down, walk away.

I don't give a shit where you go after that.

This is your last chance.

My my last chance?

You don't understand.

I can't.

Why not?

I can't tell you that either.

Tell me something then.

Do yourself a favor.

Get on one of these other planes and go home.

This is your chance.

Take it now.

I am not going anywhere without Vera.

You sure?

I bet your mom definitely needs you right now.

I'm sure Pegs is already going through a lot, but with your dad and all.

The fuck did you just say?

Oh.

You didn't know.

I probably shouldn't be the one to tell you.

How the hell do you know her name?

What the fuck happened?

Go home.

Find out.

Tell me.

I did.

Come on.

This plane will work.

Should take us all the ring.

No!

I said you're not going anywhere.

Uh-uh-uh.

Back up.

You know how quick I can be with this.

I won't warn you again.

You got no weapon, Nicholas.

This won't end well.

Why?

Why are you doing any of this?

I don't need to explain myself to you.

You fucking saved your ass, Vincent.

I should have let them tear your ass apart.

Huh.

You know what?

You have a point.

You're saying I owe you?

Let.

Vera, go.

Tell you what.

I drop the spear.

That'll make us even.

Then, if you can still stop me, you can keep her.

Just give me the chance.

This is it.

Son of a bitch!

All right, I've had enough.

Now, now, Nick.

I gave you a shot.

You could have had her,

but you made a choice.

The wrong one.

Sorry about this.

We did make a good team.

Please play responsibly, must be 18 years or older to purchase, play, or claim.

And now, we continue with Descendants.

Wake up, please, please, wake up, we don't have much time left.

Oh,

you got beat out bad.

Choked out like a chicken.

What?

What?

Where's Vincent?

He left.

I couldn't stop him.

Vincent!

Nick, wait!

Oh, boy.

No,

no, no.

No, no, Vera!

He took off with her on the plane.

We can't, we can't let him get away, okay?

There has to be a way.

Help me out here, Will, okay?

What?

What can we do?

The boar has other planes.

The only possible chance you have now is to follow him, but...

Which one?

I...

I...

Uh...

That plane.

It'll have enough range, same as the one that he took.

Alright, great.

Great.

I don't know how to fly.

I do.

Grab her feet.

Come on.

I don't think she's in any position to fly.

I'm coming around.

I have a bit of a tolerance.

Look, I can move my pinky now.

We'll make it work.

Alright, move!

Move!

They're getting away!

Oh, man.

She's getting heavy.

Excuse me?

At least we're here.

Why so many planes and helicopters?

It's how the spectators got here.

Well, which one?

Look, that's one of Westport's choppers.

That'll do.

Are you sure?

Can you fly that?

Of course.

It's what I did for the UA on the frontier.

Look, just don't worry about me.

Get her on board.

Come on, Renny.

Almost there.

I've never been shot before.

I do not like it.

You're one tough girl.

Keep pressure on the wound.

The Black Swan.

Hey, this one looks familiar.

Was this Nick and Vera's chopper?

Maybe.

Now load up.

God, there's infected all over the city.

They're everywhere now.

Last helicopter out of Saigon.

All right, I'm warming it up.

Strap in.

There you go.

Sit back.

You can have her lie down, but tie her into the seats.

There should be a first aid kit underneath.

Use the quick clot.

It'll help stop the bleeding.

Found it.

wait a second look on the other side of the fence

holy hell i can't believe it it's nick

does he does he see us

Come on, we need to take off.

Vincent is already in the air.

Put me in the cockpit.

I I can tell Will what to do.

What but me?

Why not?

You can figure out anything, right?

But no, but

come on, Nick, close the hatch.

Ho, ho, ho, ho, hold up.

Is that Bert and Kelly?

They're getting in one of the choppers.

I mean, that means they're safe at least.

Hey, we're gonna lose her.

He sees us.

Should we try to get to him?

Don't know if we even can, but if they're getting on a plane, they'll be fine, right?

We need to take off now.

But

Bert,

he'll be okay.

They all will be.

They didn't need any of us, did they?

Coming here only made things worse.

Well, I wasn't gonna say it, but

they can handle themselves.

We should have trusted them

let them go

on Nick

that's it I'm taking off I'm coming I'm coming

They're going.

We should too.

We'll lose the other plane for sure if we we don't take off right now

Get us in the air don't let that son of a bitch get away all righty then have a seat

Push that red button there, okay

and the black one there No, not that one the neck next to it

breathe.

Okay, you got this well Have you seen his hands?

They're shaking like a leaf.

I can't help it right now.

Then strap in.

This might be a bumpy ride.

Look, whatever you have to do, just follow her.

I can't lose Ferris.

Okay, is that the last of them?

I think so.

Oh,

we're free of this damn city.

I can't begin to thank you enough.

I just can't believe you all had to live like that

Gloria

The tunnels are empty.

We gotta move dot

Everyone keep heading east.

We need to distance ourselves.

Come on

Hey

You're one of those kids from Westport, right?

Yeah,

why?

Well, I'm from Westport, too.

Grant Alex

they made you fight in those games

I just heard about them grabbing some of our guardians But that's about it

You don't hear much inside the camps We were able to get out, but how the hell'd you end up here prim bastards took our train that was you are we headed home My daughter's probably worried sick.

No, that's too far away to travel for these people.

Wherever we go, it's got to be on foot.

Uh-oh.

The hell is that?

Something's coming through the tunnels.

Infected, shut it quickly.

Seal the brake.

All right, people.

We have to move now.

We can't stay here.

Head southeast.

We'll find our way from there.

Get as far from the city as possible!

What about the rest of my friends?

I told them to meet us here by the tree.

And if we leave...

Alex, if they're not already out, they're not going to be.

And if we don't leave now, we won't get very far.

That's just how it is, right?

Damn it!

They better not have gotten stuck in there.

Alex!

What?

Oh!

That's one of our helicopters!

It's heading in the direction of Westport.

Maybe they did make it out.

Duh.

Yeah, that's great, Null.

But we have a hell of a long way to go with these people to get them to safety.

Hey, put the weak and infirm in my truck.

We'll transport who we can and there.

The rest of you, move like your lives depended on it, because they probably do.

They all listen to you.

They trust you.

Well, it doesn't hurt to be an international celebrity, now does it?

Honestly,

I don't think many of them have seen your films.

Well, that's a shame.

We might just have to change that.

So, does that mean we're taking them to the

to the Atlas.

Only place I know that would be safe for now.

Might be a little cramped, but uh.

Sure, you want to do that?

You'd have to share everything

It's only stuff right

right

Come on get a move on we don't have much time

Help each other out any chance we have now depends on all of us working together

Ma'am Bor

the city has evacuated all the guests.

We're doing the best we can to control the outbreak, but

But our workers, they're heading out of the city, too.

What?

They were let out

if we lose them.

There will be no chance to rebuild this place.

What do you want us to do?

Leave half the company behind to retake the city.

The other half will come with me.

Yes, ma'am.

Right away.

Load up the trucks and tactical vehicles.

We need to retrieve our workforce.

Board you copy.

This is Walrus.

Come in.

Go ahead.

I'm in the air about 50 miles outside of Prim now with the blood sample.

Shouldn't take me long to get to the Republic.

Good.

Stay on course, Walrus.

Hopefully, I'll be able to deal with this and join you shortly.

I gotta say, man, there's a shit ton of planes in the air right now, and they're going in all directions.

The hangars were getting picked clean when I left.

You may run out of ways to get out of the city.

Don't worry about me.

I have bigger problems to handle.

Every wind is fair when you're flying from misfortune.

Are you sure you want to do this?

Last chance to back out is now.

This is the only way.

The longer we wait, the less chance we have of Nick being there.

Once they know we're gone, I don't think Westport's gonna be happy.

You know, I don't really care about that

flight control.

This is November Niner 04 Delta X-Ray requesting permission to fly.

Delta X-Ray, I don't have any record of your flight manifest.

There seems to be an issue with

three,

two.

Oh, wait, okay.

Yeah, I see the orders now.

Okay, Delta X-Ray, you are clear to take off from runway three.

Thanks, mom.

Honestly, you people are scary.

Only when we're not on your side.

Uh

everything okay?

Yes.

Yes, it is.

Um,

okay, uh,

oh, it's this one.

Sorry, I

I may be a tiny bit rusty, but I but I have this, I've got this.

Oh boy,

okay, Nick.

I'm coming.

They're gone,

aren't they?

I can't believe this.

Godspeed, Nicholas.

Will, wherever you are.

Now, if I can just make it to the Monorail Depot, then I might.

Oh, no.

No, no, no, no, no.

Forget this.

It was safer back inside Infected Management.

Oh, no.

No, no, no, freaking keycard.

Read it.

Come on, read it, read it, come on!

work, damn you.

Who's there?

Oh, damn it.

Oh, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit.

Hello.

Oh god.

Buffalo Bill, I.

I.

What's happened to your eyes?

All of your eyes are the same.

They.

They turn black?

What the hell is going on?

Why aren't you attacking each other?

Fredo?

You're not fighting?

What the hell happened?

Oh no.

I remember you.

You remember me,

Cole?

What did you do to them?

What are you going to do to me?

No.

No,

no, no.

I can feel it

inside of me.

I can feel

is that

you

Go ahead, Cole,

I'm listening.

I'm listening

What should I do, Vera?

What would you want of me?

What

madam?

There's a.

They just uh I know.

The scouts report

at least a hundred Republic tanks and countless red coat troops

How far are they now?

About 500 miles

But they are on their way here

That's for sure

I never thought it would actually

come to this.

Wait, what

are you thinking?

There's only one possible response.

Ready, the Guardians.

We are going

to war.

Where alive, descendants will return.
