War of the Dead Page #2

Great.

That's your Purple Heart.

Hey, kid.

Listen, Kolya, I really need

to trust you on this one.

How did you end up here?

I came with my father.

He thought it would be a good idea

for me to get some hands-on experience.

Selzman was your father?

Yeah.

I'm sorry.

At least he died doing what he loved.

Get ready. We're going out.

- With a bang?

- You betcha.

Captain? Can you hear me?

Don't make me do this.

No!

Whoa, whoa, whoa! It's me.

I saw what happened. We need to go.

Follow me.

Let's go, kid.

They're here!

Let's go! Come on, Kolya!

- Come on, work, you peace of sh*t.

- Go, go, go, go.

Anybody need a ride?

Come on, we need to move.

My grandmother walks faster

than this car.

Christ.

What is that?

What's going on?

What are you doing?

What the hell is going on here?

Son of a b*tch.

He's on the roof! Come on, shoot him!

Sh*t! I'm out of bullets!

I have to reload.

Come on!

Where is he? He's coming back!

Shoot him! Come on! Take him out!

- Kill him! Take him down!

- Shoot him!

Come on!

- OK.

- Come on, Mary!

Go, go, go! What are you

waiting for? Drive! Come on!

Come on, Mary. Don't die on me.

Who's Mary, Captain?

Hey, look. Light.

I know this spot. It's OK.

No, kid, it's not OK.

How'd you know about this village, kid?

I have been here.

- Really?

- Yes.

As a soldier?

No. Long time ago.

You keep an eye on him.

Come on.

Everybody grab some food.

After we have finished,

Captain Stone and I are going home.

- What about me?

- You are home.

- You can go back to your unit.

- No, no, unit gone.

We must warn people. And your soldiers,

they will die too, you know.

I'm in charge now.

And you will do nothing?

You must tell people.

And then what?

Maybe American army help.

I'm sorry, kid. I'm all you got.

You leave me to die?

I thought we were friend.

This is war, kid.

And besides,

the lieutenant's in charge now.

And why you are here? Is not your war.

That's right. It's not my war.

Captain, do you have any idea

what's happening here?

No. I've never seen or heard

anything like this before.

They're undead. How can that be?

God only knows.

I don't believe in God.

It's fine by me.

Do you miss your family back home?

My wife is dead.

Do you miss her?

Like I said, my wife is dead.

I miss my dog, Sergei,

very strong Siberian husky.

Who's Mary? Your wife?

For your information, Lieutenant,

she was everything I lived for.

- So you're looking for death, then?

- Aren't we all?

And that's the reason you came here?

Do you believe in the devil, Captain?

I do now.

- OK, better we go now.

- Shut up.

Stay here.

Don't let anything through that door.

Maybe I should go

and you stay here, Captain.
