The Hunted Page #3

you don't want to tell me?

I'd like to talk to him

about Operation Black Eagle

and Mongoose, Cobra...

Shut up! You want to get

yourself killed?

His name is Aaron Hallam.

Sergeant First Class

Aaron Hallam.

You do remember me, sir.

You're talking about sh*t

that never happened.

They're recording this, bud.

Good. Then there'll be a record.

And that record will never say

What you want it to say,

Will it?

Then what am I doing here,

people?

Mort, you have got

to help me out here.

Is this our guy or not?

I know there

are variables, Mort.

There are always variables,

but we can't indict a variable.

Hey, boss.

Sir, we understand you have

a man named Aaron Hallam

in your custody.

How much do you know

about Mr. Hallam?

Born in 1968.

raised in Barrow County,

West Virginia.

High school equivalency,

although he scored

off the charts in science.

Joined the Army at 18.

That's the strange part.

What's that, sir?

Well, it doesn't really

tell us any more about him.

The record's incomplete.

Not even a date of discharge.

Sergeant Hallam

is unofficially listed

as missing in action, sir.

Unofficially?

That's a cover.

That means he's

still doing work for you.

We're here to take possession

of your prisoner, sir.

This is not a military base.

Your man very likely

killed and mutilated

four hunters on federal land.

I think you should take

a look at this... sir.

Unless we've been invaded

by a foreign power

and are officially at war,

you don't have

any authority here.

Look, I know you want

to get out of here,

but we're waiting

on the blood results,

and I need your statement.

You ever used that thing?

Do you mean

did I ever shoot anyone?

Yeah.

Would you ask a guy

the same question?

Yeah.

Well, as a matter

of fact, I have.

Do we have to go into it?

No.

Okay.

Not a great view of the city.

It's a wilderness.

What's your

relationship to Hallam?

I trained him.

To do what?

Trained him to survive...

I trained him to kill.

I trained a lot

of people like him--

you know, the best

of the best, sh*t like that.

I pulled your file.

You were never in the military.

No.

You just worked for them.

Yeah.

Like a contractor.

Yeah.

You don't like to

talk about it, do you?

No.

My father was a...

Army colonel.

When my older brother

was killed in Vietnam,

he decided he wasn't

going to lose another son

to that particular war.

End of story.

Dad was a tracker

before he joined the Army,

and I learned

what I do from him.

What about Hallam?

He's unusual.

He can kill anybody...

Without regret.

Most of the people he killed

never knew he was

in the same room with them.

How do you feel about that?
