Blood Ransom Page #3
if she wanted to kill you.
You haven't got much time.
When did it happen?
Six nights ago.
The seventh is your last.
If you don't die, you will kill,
and he won't be able to stop you.
Do you still want to help me?
Jeremiah, you have to kill Roman.
And if you do... if...
mix a drop of his blood
in this vial of newly blessed holy water.
Drink it and you'll be human again, Crystal.
Remember, the blessing has to be fresh.
The water that you use at church,
once everyone's touched it,
that's not holy water anymore.
This is bullshit.
She doesn't know what she's talking about.
Listen, it has to be father Mena.
You can't just explain all this to any priest in the middle of the night.
Jeremiah, we have to go back and get the blade.
All the rest of this is bullshit.
I want to believe you.
You have to kill me...
-Before I kill you.
-I'll prove it to you.
Emily! Come out here, sweetheart.
Tonight was her last night, too.
She's just like you, Crystal.
Little Emily didn't deserve this.
I infected her.
I wanted the child I never had.
And now, I have to kill her
before the sickness I gave her destroys her.
But I hoped you'd come, and I saw father Mena today
and had some water blessed myself.
Kill me.
-No!
-And then you'll believe.
-No!
-Jeremiah, please.
Help me free her.
You don't kill us in the heart
Like all the stories say.
You kill us in the throat.
-Do it.
-Show me how strong you are, Jeremiah.
Roman is much stronger than me.
Do it!
[Psychic]
There you go.
Aah! Aah!
You were never a believer.
But now in your time of desperation...
before you take this,
in your heart, do you believe?
Father, there's no time.
[Gunfire]
Are you shot?
I have a small cut from the altar.
Oh, son, that doesn't look good.
You know I could end this right now.
-Are you hit?
-Father...
Yes.
-Are you?
-I told you not to run.
Her fate is inevitable.
Yours, you can change.
-I don't believe in fate.
-Do you believe in god?
[Whimpering]
We have to go.
You have to go to a hospital.
You don't have much time.
You might die.
If we don't make it and I'm anywhere near you,
you will probably kill me anyway.
Detective, this little girl says she's looking for you.
How old are you?
I'm not sure.
How'd you get here?
[Coughing]
I'm not going to hurt you.
Do you know how long I've waited for you?
What you've done?
It's immoral.
The people who lecture you are hypocrites.
The honest ones wallow in their own despair.
He was going to take me back.
Help him.
-Do one thing and I will.
-Anything.
[Roman]
Take his blood.
Know what you can be.
If you do that, I will save him.
Crystal, what you do with him after,
I leave to you.
You wanna tell me what the hell is going on?
This little girl has been missing damn near a week now.
And her folks that was on the news, we can't find them either.
Now, child services is here to take her.
And she said somebody that you know
told her to come here looking for you.
Now you wanna tell me who that friend is?
Am I dead?
Roman saved you.
God, you're beautiful.
How do you feel?
I feel amazing.
I do, too.
I feel strong.
I feel like I could do anything.
Are you hungry?
This is my parent's house.
Why do work in that place then?
Where are they now?
They're dead.
You see this dress?
My mom had actually put in her will
that she wanted to be buried in this.
Why wasn't she?
Their bodies burned in a fire.
I don't wanna die.
What are you doing at my desk, Hobbs?
I'm just sitting here thinking about that little girl.
You still have that address to the strip club?
Yes, siree, I do.
All of a sudden, you wanna be a cop now.
Hm. That's funny.
You know what?
F*** you, man.
-I don't either,
but it's gonna be daylight soon.
I don't feel any changes in me.
Maybe the psychic was wrong.
Maybe there is no ticking clock.
We're going in through the back way.
This was an unnecessary mess...
but I took an oath never to harm him.
You'll need this.
Manningham says it's the one.
I can't vouch for that.
But if you choose to take the risk,
that's what he told me.
The way I see it, you don't have much choice.
-Who's Manningham?
-Take the blade.
Just take it.
Remember what I told you, Jeremiah.
I always keep my word.
You understand.
Get away from you just to be safe
and see what happens.
Maybe nothing happens.
Look, something is different.
I should be sick, but I'm not...
Why did Roman save me?
Must have been something you promised.
-Somewhere where?
-Somewhere.
If things turn out right,
that's where you'll find me.
That's kind of like a promise, right?
What are you doing?
Go back to sleep.
What's that?
Dad's old gun.
Where are you going with it?
Someplace I shouldn't.
-Then don't go.
-I have to.
You don't have to do anything.
-I have to do something.
-About what?
The things that are going on out there.
If I come back from tonight, we should try again.
The doctor said blood treatments could work.
Maybe we're not supposed to have a child.
Wait, what do you mean, if you make it back?
I have to go.
Dawn is coming soon.
Mr. Manningham, why are you here?
She'll be coming back.
But she won't come back to you.
She'll come to kill you.
She's bringing the driver.
They spoke with the psychic.
I think they know the steps.
We should have never let her in.
-Choices.
-Will you stay?
-How long have you been alive?
-You ought to stop reading
All that Kierkegaard and Nietzsche.
I used to read them all, too.
Now I prefer a good Victorian novel.
All that unrequited love.
I thought, if I lived long enough I'd understand.
Well, as long as you think that you've made a difference.
I don't give it that much thought anymore.
[Tires, brakes squeal]
[Car doors slam]
You know, if suddenly you feel like turning towards god...
God is not hiding behind that light.
[Screams]
Drink it.
-Then we'll be together.
-Then we'll be together.
Kiss me.
-What are you doing?
-[Bill] I gave you my word.
The sun is up.
[Hammer clicks]
[Hammer clicks]
-[Chamber spins]
-[Hammer clicks]
-[Blows landing]
-[Jeremiah grunting]
I told you, you don't have the stomach for this.
[Growling]
[Growling]
Drink it.
[Growling]
[Screaming]
[Gasping]
I thought the sun would burn me.
But now, for the first time in my life,
I feel human.
You're under arrest!
Jesus Christ.
There's so much blood.
-[Growling]
-Whoa! What the hell is...
Dan, don't.
Dan, don't. It's okay.
-What the f*** is she?
-I'm not gonna let you hurt her.
Don't make it...
[Muttering]
I'm not gonna let you hurt her.
I won't let you.
-Put it down.
-Don't do this, Jerr.
Dan, please, you're like my brother.
I'm an officer of the law.
