Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle Of Life Page #4

remote mountain region in China.

Region?

You have to do better than that.

Get me into China, and I'll

get you to them in a day.

No guns, no money, no

weapons of any kind.

Talk about taking the fun out of life.

Shay Ling has spies all over China.

We have to get into country undetected...

...so we'll slip into

Beijing, and we go by truck.

Truck?

I wasn't thinking about

something a little faster.

A little faster?

Well, this is a little faster.

But the Chinese will track the pod.

There won't be any pod to find.

Will there be any of us to fight?

Ready? now.

- Ready for what?

The ditching was good, Croft.

I'll give you that.

But we'll never find a vehicle

in a place like this.

...ni hao...

...ni hao.

It's lovely to see you.

So is everything ready?

Yes. Your clothes, guns,

and knives, are over there.

And I took the liberty of tuning your bike.

May I?

- Yes.

Lara.

Ah, what is the happy couple up to?

Accessorizing.

- Where are we on reading the orb?

All maps have a key, Lara,

scale or legend, yes?

The orb's key is not on orbit,

it must have been lost.

or somewhere in the temple.

Go through every image I took...

...start with the ones near the orb.

key must have been linked

to it in some way.

Right, well then...

It's unlike Lara to take a partner.

Where are you two going?

We're taking a nice little trip.

breathe some fresh mountain air...

...stop by my friends the Shay Ling.

Shay Ling watch all the roads.

We have to go around the back.

We'll go straight.

Maybe you didn't hear me.

Shay Ling have men on every road

from here to Luo Yang.

Not every road.

Getting rusty, are we?

Oh, I think it's coming back.

I expected more from a Scot.

I don't expect anything

from an English woman.

Good, cause you're not

going to get anything.

Party's over.

From now on it's by foot.

Best to reconsider that "no gun" rule.

No.

And don't be looking at my ass.

So where do I fit in?

What do you mean?

You'll the guide.

I mean...when you think back...

...on the vast scheme of

hugely adventurous life...

...where do I fit in?

Is that a love of your life?

Or just another bump on the road?

Was that time well spent?

Four months, more good than bad?

Come on I had to be more

than that, am I right?

All right.

It was five months.

You're laughing at me?

No, no. It's the fact that I

used to find you charming.

I am charming.

You're late.

Tilt your head back. Do it!

You might see again in a hour. Maybe.

What's this?

It's not there.

There's no orb.

Is it anything you can tell me about this?

Hello.

I think it you don't like your messenger.

I didn't, but I did like

the men I lost in a temple.

You underestimated Lady Croft.
