Enemies Closer Page #3

I was thinking more like tonight.

My address is on the back.

I'll expect you around nine?

We could eat a picnic under the stars?

You saved me today.

Let me say thank you. Please.

I don't know.

I've got a lot of stuff to do up

at the lodge.

Yeah, I noticed.

It's a, a real hub of activity.

Come on. I'm so grateful to you.

It's dinner, for God's sake.

I will see you tonight.

- I'll see you there.

- Bye.

Eeny...

meeny, miny...

moe.

Get the equipment.

We're leaving in five.

He shoots, he scores!

Coming.

Oh, thank God!

I was starting to think nobody was home.

I'm here. What are you doing on

the island so late?

Oh, I, I beached my boat like,

way on the other side of the island.

I just started hiking, and I got lost.

Sun went down, I couldn't find

my way back to the trail.

Yours was the only

light I saw for miles.

Glad you found me.

Come on in. Get you warmed up.

- Sorry about the mess.

- Right.

Can I get you anything?

- A water'd be great.

- All right, come on right back here.

Not a lot of residents around here,

I take it?

No, it's just me.

There's another guy,

had his cabin grand-fathered in before

they declared this a state park.

I feel like an idiot

getting lost like I did.

Don't be. Kings Island,

it's not easy to navigate.

It's why we got all the signs saying

leave before the sun hits the horizon.

- Thanks for that.

- Sure.

So what are we gonna do

with you, Mister...?

Clay. Everybody call me Clay.

I guess you're gonna

have to spend the night,

if you don't mind sleeping on the floor.

I've got extra blankets and a pillow.

And in the morning,

we'll look for your boat.

Cool.

So you work up near here

or down in the city?

Not working at all right now.

Was a construction worker

but that turns into day...

laborer pretty quick

when people stop building.

Yeah, I hear that.

Though the economy seems

to bring people to the outdoors.

We've been pretty busy up here.

Silver lining, so to speak?

So is that what this job is all about?

Getting in touch with nature?

So to speak.

I guess you could say I came up here

for a little bit of perspective,

but it's hard to explain.

Well, I'll get the

blankets and the pillow.

I'm actually going out tonight

and I won't be back until late.

Going out? This late at night?

Looks like you brought a knife

to a gun fight.

I've gotta give it to you,

Henry, you're kinda perceptive.

Must be that,

what you call, military training.

Duck and cover,

enemy approaching. Sit.

If you want money,

I don't have any.

If that was what I was after,

you think I'd come to a place like this?

It's a f***ing gold mine, right?

What do you want?

It's not about what I want,
