The Blood Bond Page #4

That's right.

And I'm doing this why, exactly?

She's with the Bagwun...

And I'm kind of helping her out.

It's always the same old story

with you, John.

I'm just not buying into it any more.

What he's doing is a holy thing.

He's risking his life for the greater good.

Is this true?

Yes.

If it will help save the Bagwun, I'll do it.

We leave in 40 minutes.

Jane will show you where you can freshen up

Thank you.

So... This is it...

This is our changing room.

It's all yours now.

The towels are in the corner.

Just help yourself.

And let me know

if I can get you anything else.

Ok.

We... heard about the Bagwun.

Is it serious?

Yes, I'm afraid it is.

We will pray for him.

Thanks.

And... when he's better,

please ask him to pray for us.

Ok...

I will...

Thanks.

Even though

we'd survived the journey so far,

I feared that worse might lie ahead.

I remembered the Bagwun's words:

A balanced ship survives the storm.

A balanced ship...

I think we're ok.

I'll take you as far I as can.

After that,

you'll have another 2 miles on foot.

That'd be great.

Hey Chang, what's up?

Oh! Nothing much.

Where's Jesse?

She's down south.

New shipment of women coming in.

Back tomorrow.

You lie to me.

I don't like it when people lie.

One more time, then you bleed.

Where is Jesse?

F*** you! F*** the PLM!

Who's next?

I should warn you,

this guy we're going to see...

is a bit of a degenerate.

Actually, he's a total degenerate.

A friend of yours? Hard to believe.

Take one more step...

and I will blow your head off.

Ding, it's me...

Me who?

John Tremayne.

J.T.?

You look like sh*t...

Ding - do you mind?

Oh, yeah... sorry.

But seriously bro.

You look like an old man.

But it is good to see you anyway.

And I see you still got good taste!

How much?

He didn't pay for me.

And you're still getting it for free!

I'm not with him.

Even better. I buy.

You know it may come as a shock to you,

but there are some women in this country

not for sale.

Feisty, feisty.

I like her. Come on, J.T.

Let's have a drink for old times sake.

Hey baby, we talk price later.

All of this, this and this...

This is a rebel's territory now.

These waterways

are the only access to the river...

before Havahava bridge.

No way we can make it through there.

What if we went up river here,

and then cut across on foot?

Yeah. Not so many rebels there.

I was up river yesterday,

passed right along this road.

The checkpoint was deserted.

Perfect.

You want 2 AK's

and a 45 and enough rounds to fight an army

and you want Ding to take you up river?

Yeah.

That's right.

You're my only hope.

And now that I said that,

it makes me realize

how desperate I really am.
