Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle Of Life Page #5

Synopsis: Intrepid British archaeologist Lara Croft has made perhaps the most important archaeological discovery in history: an orb that leads to the mythical Pandora's Box. Unfortunately, the orb falls into the hands of Jonathan Reiss, an evil scientist who deals in killer viruses and hopes to sell the secrets of the box as the ultimate weapon. Recruited by British Intelligence to get the orb back from Reiss, Lara recruits Terry Sheridan, a British marine turned mercenary (and her former love interest) to help. The two embark on an adventure that spans continents in an attempt to regain the orb...

I underestimated how

much this orb is worth.

So many horrible diseases in the world...

...things we are particularly

susceptible to as children.

You never know when you could be holding

little Shiho or Tai by the hand,

as a mysterious ailment

ravages their bodies.

You kill them,

and I'll give your orb to Lady Croft.

My men tell me, she's a

few miles away from here...

...as we speak.

I wonder how much she would pay.

I'll pay you an additional $12 million dollars.

It will be yours once you've delivered the orb...

...along with Lady Croft's body.

I don't think you know where they are.

You're impossible you know that.

I think you pretended to know

so I would get you out.

This isn't a tomb Croft,

and the Shay Ling aren't mummies.

They're killers.

But if you don't trust me.

I'm sorry I have to do this

but you're wasting time.

You want to shoot me, shoot me.

Personally, I'd rather you do it than them.

bu xu dong (Stay right there. ).

Well, Terry, what part of

'never come back again'

didn't you understand?

You wanted to fight the Shay Ling.

The only way to get into their place

is as their prisoners.

You want to tell me that in jail before.

Would you have believed me?

Make Chen Lo a better

offer than his buyer.

He'll cross them.

Even if his buyer is Jonathan Reiss?

You might've told me that before!

Were you really going to kill me?

Oh, I bet she would have.

I've seen her in action.

Didn't Terry tell you?

The last time any of us saw him,

he was riding away with a truck...

...full of my Ming vases...

...and sitting next to him, was his sister.

Oh, how is she?

You...

...shouldn't come here.

They got me out of prison...

...Besides, the lady has a good offer...

...better than Reiss.

Really?

Should I take it?

Take it.

Or better yet,

you and I run some horrendous thing

back to the British for triple.

Let's talk.

Not you, Terry.

Lady Croft and I.

You wait here.

Catch up.

There will be four minute.

Terrific.

There's something I think

you will have appreciated.

This is the largest group of

terracotta warriors I have found.

The king of Qin made them...

...for use in the afterlife...

...to fend off enemies he made in this one.

Sounds like we could both use a set.

I would be happy to sell some to you.

I hope you're as

entrepreneurial with the Orb.

You lost men, I lost men.

I see no reason we should both lose again.

If I want double, would Reiss offer it to me?

Is it here?

It's worth a lot.

Well then, if you know that,

you'll know Reiss will also kill you

the moment you give it to him.

And your government would

guarantee my safety?

No.

But I will.

That must hurt, saying that to me.
