First Kill Page #5

The guy through a key into a bush.

If I get it for him, Danny goes free.

- Then do it!

- I'm going to,

but it means not a word to

the cops until Danny's safe, okay?

Just get him back.

Will Beeman?

Twice in two days?

You wanna tell me what's going on here?

Yeah, um, I was out

taking my son for a hunt

when two men appeared out of nowhere.

The first guy caught me by surprise,

grabbed my Remington.

Levi Barrett is his name.

You've never seen him before?

He say or give anything to you?

Like what?

The Remington isn't your

pop's old shooter, is it?

So Levi snatches your stick

and turns on my officer.

Yeah, they both fired at the same time.

Officer Stechel got off a few rounds,

couple went into the side

of that barn over there.

How long was this before Richie arrived?

I don't know, maybe five minutes?

He says the boy was already

in the vehicle when he got here.

Doesn't make sense.

Yeah, well, uh, after Levi was shot,

he was in pretty rough shape,

so he went over there to sit down

and collect himself, and I sent Danny

up to the car to get a first aid kit,

and that's what he was doing

when Officer Richie arrived.

This is Officer Tom Davies.

One of my best and brightest.

He'll take care of anything you

need until you find your son.

All right.

How long did it take you

to walk up that ridge?

A few minutes.

You hear any shots on the way up?

Something doesn't feel right.

You think he's working with Levi...

I think he's lying, is what I think,

and if he is, I can't figure out why.

You stay on him, I'll handle Levi.

Listen, I'm not gonna hurt you.

That's what all kidnappers say.

How would you know?

Because I watch TV.

How old are you?

Eleven.

Where are you taking me?

I'm not taking you anywhere.

I'm just trying to stay alive.

Why do you need me?

I made a deal with your dad

to get me my key.

If I let you go,

he's got no reason to do it.

What if he doesn't bring it?

He will.

Yeah, but what if he doesn't?

Haven't thought that far ahead yet.

That's when you start hurting me.

Why'd that cop shoot you?

Uh, it's grown up stuff.

Like making babies?

Yeah. Like making babies.

What are we doing?

Here? Walk.

You better be right about all this.

What'd you want me to do,

tell 'em I killed a cop?

Look, as soon as it's dark out,

I'm gonna go get that key

and find Levi, okay?

He's just a boy, Will.

He's a smart kid, all right?

He's gonna be fine.

I'm gonna make it fine, I promise.

Got a favorite game on that thing?

- Yeah, I got a lot of games.

- What's your favorite?

I don't know.

Well, I got some cool games

where we're going.

Killer Instinct's still my favorite.

My parents don't let me play that.
