Lost City Raiders Page #4

Synopsis: In 2048, global warming caused the sea level to raise high above most cities. John Kubiak runs a salvage business with his adopted orphan sons, cocky Jack and erudite, cautious Thomas. Yet top priority, above profit, is a secret project for New Vatican cardinal Battaglia which even the boys only learn about when it kills John. It's retrieving the pharaonic scepter of Sobek, according to legend commanding the sea-level. The Kubiaks' ruthless rival in this relic hunt is against real estate super-tycoon Nicholas Filiminov, who also recruited Jack's ex, Giovanna Becker, by promising to finance her geological sea control research.

My dad taught me.

Really?

Well, unfortunately, we don't hire females.

Right, pa? They're nothin' but trouble.

Can you dive?

Can I dive?

Any style you like.

beware mister.

This girlie is bad luck.

Don't listen to him!

you should hear the stories

about her.

Stories?

What stories?

Her first ship,

the alisman Two, capsized.

- Not a soul survived.

- That's not true! I survived.

All right, boys.

Time to go.

It was a glacial tsunami.

It's hardly my fault.

And then her second ship, The Venture,

got took down by a mutant squid.

- Ate the whole crew alive.

- Everyone except you?

Did I mention

I'm a terrific swimmer?

- They say she has the curse.

- Hey, shut up and butt out!

The only reason to hire her is this butt!

- Hey, buddy, that's enough, all right?

- Is it, now?

- I can take care of myself.

- Yeah, makes one of us.

You!

What are you doin', Jack?

Go get 'em!

who started this?

That was quite a display you put on back there, guys.

You could had got us arrester or..

- Hey, just doin' what you taught us, pa.

- Really? and what's that?

Risking our lives for somethin' important.

A cute girl.

If you put up a fight like that for Giovanna,

maybe you two'd still be together.

Oh, we'd still be together if

you hadn't kicked her off the boat.

Hey, go ahead and blame me,

if that's what makes you feel better.

But I encouraged her to go because

she's a brilliant woman with real potential,

and I'm sorry that you don't understand that.

Cardinal? What are you doing out here?

This place is dangerous.

I tried to tell the Cardinal but...

- John, there's new information.

- Thomas, give us a moment.

And given the breach in security,

I didn't want to risk sending a message.

The dagger you found belonged

to a templar named Mercardier.

He is entombed in Dresden,

and the scepter may be with him.

Then we leave for Dresden immediately,

huh?

Yes. Let's save the world!

John?

Huh?

You see, with faith,

there's always a way.

Bless you.

You know, Giovanna really did make up

her own mind to leave.

She wasted her time on this boat.

And on you.

OK. I made a mess of things.

But you gotta admit her theories

were pretty off the wall.

I mean, all that new-agey crap

about earth energies and shifting plates.

Come on. Give me a break.

You really miss her, don't you?

Come on. Just an inch.

What?

Not even an inch?

That can't be.

Average Water Level:

8.710 meters

There must be something wrong.

four inches!

Yes!

Yes!

Giovanna?

Giovanna Becker?

What do you want?

Can I help you?

My name is Renault.

It's about your work.

Listen, can we talk?

In your tent, please?

I was under the impression that
