Firewalker Page #3

I wouldn't be surprised

if she punched you right in the nose.

If she were mine,

I'd cut off her nose.

- This is for you.

- For me?

Snake bite.

We have lots of those around.

When white men bring gifts,

it means they

want something in return.

You got that right, brother.

They say that you know

a lot about Apache history.

You want me to tell stories.

That's what I do best.

Take a load off.

Many winters ago...

the white eyes gave us this land

for as long as the grass grows

and the water flows.

But as you can see,

we got screwed.

What are you getting at?

I think he wants

a piece of the action.

No, not me.

The Great Spirit.

Okay, we'll give your tribe...

...twenty percent of anything we find.

Twenty percent?

Two percent. Two.

Okay, twenty percent

if the information pays off.

We want to hear about an Aztec priest

who got here in the 16th century.

Do you know the story?

- You'll tell us.

- I'll tell you.

But you're probably

not going to believe me.

I know just how you feel.

Come with me.

He was called Firewalker...

because his soul

could fly to the sun.

He would gather his power,

and his power...

oh, was great.

- What was I talking about?

- The firewalker.

Oh, yes.

Now I remember.

It was the Spaniards.

They came in search of

the firewalker's gold.

What happened to the firewalker?

Legend says he flew to the sun...

...there to walk

among the fire forever.

This is the story of the firewalker.

It's all I know.

That's it? That's our big lead?

Beware of the coyote.

He is very treacherous and powerful.

I don't care about coyotes.

I want to know where the gold is.

If I knew that,

I'd go get it myself.

- Twenty percent?

- Don't blame me.

Wait.

Soon, many spirits

will come to speak to you.

Some will be evil and very strong.

This will help protect you

from the evil spirits.

What is it?

It's dust, bones, magic.

Thank you.

I don't know how Tonto did it.

Okay, we've got gold,

human sacrifice,

the dagger and the sun.

Gin.

- We're playing poker.

- Oh.

Max.

The Spanish conquered

the Aztecs in 1522.

Now, the date

on this painting says 1527.

According to your theory,

it took Aztec priests five years

to get here from somewhere

in Central America.

All I know is,

if that gold isn't in that cave,

then it has to be somewhere else.

Right, right--now, we've got half of

Central America to choose from.

Where would you like to start?

You're so smart.

San Miguel?

Right in between

Aztec and Mayan country.

You believe in witches, Leo?

I bring a potion from Tall Eagle.

He has cast a spell

to protect you from evil.

I never turn down a good potion.

Heady stuff.

Max, you son of a b*tch! Wake up!
