Priest Page #3

Synopsis: PRIEST, a post-apocalyptic sci-fi thriller, is set in an alternate world -- one ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampires. The story revolves around a legendary Warrior Priest from the last Vampire War who now lives in obscurity among the other downtrodden human inhabitants in walled-in dystopian cities ruled by the Church. When his niece is abducted by a murderous pack of vampires, Priest breaks his sacred vows to venture out on a quest to find her before they turn her into one of them. He is joined on his crusade by his niece's boyfriend, a trigger-fingered young wasteland sheriff, and a former Warrior Priestess who possesses otherworldly fighting skills.

this place she'd be dead ...

or worse, infected.

With all due respect to God...

You're wasting your time.

You're not cutting me out of this!

I'm the one that came and got you!

The people in this town don't think

you can keep them safe here.

What makes you think you'll

do any good out there?

- You ant good with a gun?

- Better than I am with a knife.

We leave a dawn.

What's with all these bullets anyway?

I thought that priests did not use firearms.

We don't.

These are for you.

You are called to serve once more.

One of your own has broken his sacred vow.

His actions are a threat

to the entire order.

You'll find him and bring him back to me.

Dead or alive.

- What is it?

- Vampire tracks are round and ...

in sets of 2, 3 or 4 at once,

these are two by two.

- Must have been some of the familiars.

- Vampires don't bring familiars. In the hunt they slow them down.

All this...

This was something else.

Tracks head north.

- There's a reservation that way.

- Well then, that's where we start.

Mangshane Reservation.

Talk about the red out in jacks.

They're a fallen tribe.

Either way, we don't have

much time to get in and out.

No guards.

I thought familiars were illegal.

No one ever enforces it, as long

as it's voluntary.

- Voluntary?

- Yes, come to the border.

Drifters that want to get infected.

They think becoming a vampire

and live among them.

They have all sorts of strange ideas.

As long as they keep to themselves I...

Makes no difference to me.

You're not welcome priest.

These lands are protected.

I got this.

We're looking for a local girl, kidnapped

- They came through this neighborhood.

- Nobody comes through Nightshade.

So it's nice ...

and quiet.

Good, we're sure we don't have any trouble.

They excreet it, use

them to build the hives.

I guess we now what happened to the guards.

No, no, no, you must not...

The Master will be angry...

Where's the girl?

I don't know what you're talking about.

The Master doesn't feed anymore.

Tell that to the guards.

- Where is she?

- Please don't, don't...

Where is she?

Priest !! Priest !!!

Save your bullets.

We can do this the easy way or...

God. I always prefered the hard way.

- Tell me where you took the girl.

- Haven't you done already priest ?!

- Tell me!

- Look around, what we've done to them.

They once ruled this land, they were

worriers, they were Gods.

- They were murderers.

- They were what they were made to be.

- ... in nature just like you.

- You have 10 seconds to start talking.

You're too late priest.

This is their time now.

- Did you get your gun on?

- Why?

You're gonna need it.

I walk to the shadow of death ...
