Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter Page #5
I am sorry, Mary.
I am sorry I have kept you
in the dark all these years.
I need you, Mary.
I have waited a long time
to hear you say those words.
I want you to leave Washington, Mary.
Miss Tubman, please have some tea.
I very much appreciate you
coming to speak with me today.
Oh, yes.
Things have not been easy,
what with my...
The death of my son and the war.
I need to get out of Washington.
And I need a lot of help.
This war ends tonight.
And with it,
our millennia of darkness.
We have to do this on our own.
No one can know what's on that train.
If we don't get those weapons
to those boys at Gettysburg,
the war is over.
It's time we had a nation of our own.
Come,
we have a train to catch.
It's 80 miles from here to Gettysburg.
Eighty miles will decide whether
this nation belongs to the living
or the dead.
Is everything all right, Speed?
I just can't believe you're
still writing in that book.
It's all in here, Speed.
The good with the bad.
What's this?
They're fleeing the nest.
Leaving Washington free for us.
Look at me.
I said look at me.
Leave her.
Don't want to miss this train.
Let's go.
Henry, what the hell
are you doing here?
I just wanted to see how far
your foolishness would take you.
I don't have time to argue.
I didn't come here to argue with you.
I came here to tell you that your
dear friend Speed back there
is a traitor.
He betrayed you, Abe.
Speed is leading you...
You have no idea
what you're talking about.
That's all according to plan.
You must get off this train.
No, you must get off this train.
This is not your war, Henry.
Ah.
They're here, Abe.
A whole heap of them.
We can't let them stop this train.
You go through there and you're dead.
Get out now, it's your last chance.
Did you load that thing?
We have got to keep them
away from the locomotive.
Why don't you let him go, Lincoln?
Emancipate yourselves.
Oh, you don't have to follow me, Abe.
I have the train.
I have the silver.
Soon I will have the whole country.
myth of Abraham Lincoln
so that history will forever
know you not as a man,
but as a monster.
Lincoln set us up.
We have been tricked, Adam.
There is no silver on this train.
Abe.
Abe.
Abe.
Hello, Speed.
Where is the silver?
Silver?
Should be here.
Why did you lie to me?
To get you all in one place,
to finish you.
Speed?
No.
Mr. President.
There is nowhere left to run, Lincoln.
Where is it?
Where is the silver?
Right here.
Thank you, Henry.
I suppose some vampires
can be trusted.
As can some men, Abraham.
If the train was a decoy,
where is the silver?
This isn't the only rail road.
A wise man once taught me,
always have a contingency plan.
Get me more.
Bayonets. Bayonets for
Springfield muskets.
Springfield muskets.
Five-pounders and grenades are
in the second wagon in the back.
Go now, go now.
Fire.
Four score and seven years ago,
our fathers brought forth
on this continent
a new nation conceived in liberty
and dedicated to the proposition
that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged
in a great civil war,
testing whether that
nation, or any nation
so conceived and so dedicated,
can long endure.
It is for us, the living, rather
to be dedicated here
to the unfinished work
which they who fought here
have thus far so nobly advanced.
It is rather for us
to be here dedicated
to the great task remaining before us
that from these honored dead we take
increased devotion to that cause
for which they gave the last
full measure of devotion,
that we here highly
resolve that these dead
shall not have died in vain,
and that this nation, under God,
shall have a new birth of freedom,
and that government
of the people, by the
people, for the people,
shall not perish from the earth.
Our enemies have made their exodus.
Some back to Europe,
some to South America and the Orient.
They have seen that America shall
forever be a nation of living men,
a nation of free men.
We make rather a good team, you and I.
One can't help but think of all the
good we could do if we had more time.
Limitless time.
Lincoln.
Yes, well, time waits for no man.
We're going to be late for the theater.
Hold onto this for me, Henry.
Mary, darling,
have you seen my hat?
It's on your desk in the office.
Have you seen my hat?
Abraham, let me make you immortal.
ages, side by side.
Vampires are not the only
things that live forever.
History prefers legends to men.
It prefers nobility to brutality.
Soaring speeches to quiet deeds.
History remembers the battle
and forgets the blood.
However history remembers
me, if it does at all,
it shall only remember
a fraction of the truth.
One more.
A guy only gets that drunk when he
wants to kiss a girl or kill a man.
So, which is it?
# I watched you fall
apart and chased you to the end #
# I am left with emptiness
# You will never know what
I became because of you #
# Ten thousand promises #
# Ten thousand ways to lose #
# And you held it all #
# And I was by your side #
# Powerless #
# Powerless #
