AE: Apocalypse Earth Page #3

as long as you can. Come on.

Let the river take you.

Lieutenant! Here!

Everyone out! Come on. Let's go!

Where's Hannah?

No! No! No!

Help! Help! Help!

Come on Peebs.

We must go. Kormoryx is near.

I can smell it.

I would be happy to assist by

digging a grave for Hannah.

Happy? Heartless Son-of-a-

That's enough. We don't have

time for this.

We don't have time. Stop. Stop.

I must apologize if I have offended.

I'm only here to assist.

While my form is designed to put you at

ease, you're correct. I have no heart.

That's very touching, but aren't we

supposed to be finding the ship?

What the hell is a Kormoryx?

Very big. Very Bad.

We're going to bury her, aren't

we?

We didn't get to bury the

others.

There's nothing left to bury

man.

You know what? We are going to save humanity.

We gotta stay human.

So we are going to bury her.

He's right.

It's an attack ship. It must

have escaped the invasion.

Looks like they made a

controlled landing.

Stop Stop Stop.

Crap!

It will eat us. All of us! Skin

too tough for spears.

We need to get inside that ship.

Well, it's not gonna eat all of

us, will it?

Would you be happy to assist us?

Look, just distract it. Get it

to chase you.

You're not edible. There's

nothing to be afraid of.

I'm not programmed for fear. But if I'm

not edible, how will I lure it away?

Switch clothes with him.

Shoo.

Out! Out! Damn dragon!

Everyone. Those are capelblom,

they're poisonous don't eat them.

Looks pretty good.

Huh.

Is it dead?

I don't know. Keep your fingers

crossed.

We'll have to check the

power cell connections.

Here. Pull this up. Right here.

Right here. Pull up.

There she is.

It looks ok.

I didn't expect for everything

to work perfectly.

But these connections are secure.

It should power the basic system.

I checked the weapons locker. It's empty.

But the emergency kit is intact.

Like it's never been opened.

They took the weapons and left

all the survival supplies?

Impossible.

What?

I thought an antimatter power cell

was good for a thousand years?

Well that's what they say in the

handbook.

Ahh! Hard as a rock.

Alright lets check every compartment.

There's gotta be an answer here.

That's it. No coffee mugs, no old magazines.

It's like it's fresh from the factory.

It doesn't make any sense.

If it was the power cell, could

she fly?

I can't find anything else

wrong.

But we don't have a power cell. It's time

to figure out how we're going to live here.

Look man I'm going home.

Frank, We can't make antimatter

here.

We don't need to make antimatter. Power

cell's are designed to withstand anything.

Right? Even a crash.

Yeah it it were to rupture. It

would be "Boom".

So the AE didn't blow up. Her

power cell is still intact.

- You

don't know what they're like.

Why not?

- We're lost.

You know I'll follow you

anywhere but that sounds crazy.

Come on man.

No, Frank. We've been in flight

for a very long time.

That thing is back. It's got

TIM.

Dammit!

Alright dragon. Let's find your

weak spot.

Good Job.

You risked your life to save me.

You did the same for us.

I am programmed to assist and

protect humans.

You risked your life for me. For

a machine.

You're more then a machine.

You are one crazy, heroic,

son of a b*tch.

What is "Altus Exodus"?

It's a moronic slogan they made up for the

evacuation, to make it seem less cowardly.

It means, "The high noble

departure".

In the unit we use to say "Up,

up, and away".

You risked your life?

For a member of my unit... my

family.

It was the right thing to do.

If we don't protect each other,

we'll all die alone.

We are family now?

Do you have other family? In

your world?

A... mate?

Umm-

I have a wife.

She's gone. She left before the

attack.

But I have a daughter.

She's 5 now.

Probably older.

I have to get back to her.

I promised her I'd be back.

If we get the power cell,

will you leave?

You can come with us.

But that might not happen because without

anybody's help we're not going anywhere.

I got your back Frank.

Me too. Let's get out of here.

I'm with you Frank.

I'm in.

I would be happy to assist you.

Family.

Yeah.

Yeah.

- Good Morning Cassie.

- Good Morning. Where is Frank?

I thought we were all going for

the power cell together.

Frank and Lea went to get water.

It's beautiful.

What are you looking at?

Beautiful.

Is this a tattoo?

Some sort of rite of passage?

Tattoo?

What?

Lea?

Lea?

Ahh!

That looks like everything.

What?

You all sure about this?

Come on Frank.

It's too dangerous. We're

leaving.

Of course we got to get back to AE.

Without being caught by chameleons.

Or something worse.

Yeah. And getting here almost

killed us.

We should take the river. It will be a lot

easier than going through that jungle again.

And probably a lot safer.

- Well let's say that we get there.

- Right.

There aren't enough of us for an

assault.

I had an Idea about that.

Would your people help us?

Are you alright?

I'm glad something good has come

out of all of this.

I think Frank is a very good

man.

What is it?

What is... "Tattoo"?

It's a long was to Tipperary.

To the sweetest girl I know.

Goodbye Piccadilly. Farewell Leicester Square.

It's a long long way to Tipperary

My heart is still there.

What does it mean? Tipperary?

No idea.

Are we there yet?

Did you ever consider that the

filed was being bombed?

If you'd stayed you would have been blown up.

So in a way I saved your life.

The village is far bu there is

and entrance near.

The not used way.

Back door?

Back door. Long walk in dark, Under mountain.

Chameleons don't go underground.

So we'll be safe inside.

Never safe. Never all safe. The

people will not want to help us.

The chameleons hunt them kill

them.

Maybe if we give the Chameleons a bloody

nose they will leave your people alone.

Come on. Let's go.

Stay close.

There's something back here.

Just ignore them.

The village is in the next

cavern.

I can't go in.

You know what, we need you to

translate.

What's wrong?

This is where I use to hide. To

listen...

Sometimes my mother would leave

me food.

They caught her and...

These are not my people.

I don't have people.

I was - I don't know know words.

Sent away?

Banished?

They called me a monster.

When child born like me.

They take into jungle to die.

They say if I ever come back I'm

killed.

Why would anybody call you a

monster?

Not "Tattoo"

I don't have tattoo.

You are the most beautiful woman

I have ever seen.

Why did you bring us here if you

knew you couldn't go in?

You only people who ever see

past...

Ok.

Did you learn their language?

No.

I can speak to them.

If Lea will teach me the words.

Many languages have similar

sentence structure.

I'll teach.

I'll teach.

HEM!

Hehessom Naloopaf.

Yatunn tunnik sutta mo?

Thasim shelesteyfas fa thafalt.

He suggests they kill us, that we're

demons who fell from the sky.
