Born of War Page #3
Oh, I'm sorry, um...
- I thought you were...
- Yeah.
Still...
We're on.
- You up for this?
- Yeah.
Okay.
It used to be that you could
just swallow a homing device or, um,
stick it up your arse but...
I think Khalid's men are
too shrewd for that.
I don't think they'll
have seen one of these.
Will it hurt?
A little bit.
Argh! F***ing...
Wow, you're tough.
I've seen 18-stone Marines faint from that.
Now,
let's see if we've got you.
There you are.
Now, that's going to bruise quite badly.
So, camouflage.
Take your pick.
- Simon?
- Yeah?
Um, I was just wondering if you,
uh, if you ever felt...
Holy sh*t!
- Take his wallet, take his wallet!
- Simon!
- American? English?
- Simon! Wake up!
No!
Please!
Hey.
Rich?
Good pay ransom?
Is he your dad?
What?
My dad's Khalid Zeerak.
Sit on your hands.
Sit on your hands!
Sit on...
So...
We are in big trouble, right?
Lie to me again, b*tch,
and I'll kill you! Okay?
We're still in the air.
O can't get someone
to you for two hours, over.
Jesus, okay. Out.
No one will pay for me.
Well...
We're going to use you, then.
No!
No!
No!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Stop, stop!
Simon? Come in, Simon.
Olivia, do you copy? Yes.
Do the bandits still have her?
Yeah.
Three hostiles down. No sign of Mina.
She's still on the move.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Yeah?
- Huh?
- Jacket?
- You want this?
- Mmm-hmm.
Sorry about that, mate.
Did they hurt you?
You're safe here with me.
Who are you?
Saba Abdali. I work with
your father, Khalid.
That was not supposed to happen to you.
Those boys that took you?
I'm afraid my country's
full of those opportunists.
You work for a terrorist.
First, I need to run some tests on you.
Now, I could force you and call Abu back.
Or you could let me do it. Easier.
Your choice.
It's supposed to mean freedom
from oppression and rules.
Okay.
Get dressed now.
The results are positive.
I've got to go out now.
I've written my cell number on top,
in case you might need me.
Understand your father's need to see you.
He's lost his only son.
Try to respect that.
He's upstairs.
You look
like...
Like me.
How dare you?
You think you can kill my mother
and I'll still be your daughter?
What? Your mother?
Wait!
Let her go! Let her go. Let her go!
I don't understand. Your mother is dead?
Your men killed her.
Your men killed her!
Wait, stop!
I thought...
She was dead.
Twenty years.
Look.
Last week, I find out she's alive
and we have a daughter.
She called you Mina,
my language, Pashto, for "love".
Now you say she's dead.
She was murdered three weeks ago.
Who?
You tell me who
and I will kill them.
Olivia, is that our guys coming in?
Who's this?
I thought you were a terrorist.
Me?
You should see what Dagar would do
without me to protect our people.
I think something's gone horribly wrong
but you can explain it to them, right?
Them?
British Intelligence.
I led them to you.
Olivia, are these our guys?
What the f*** is going on?
F***!
F***!
Olivia, what the f***?
Olivia, Dagar must have hacked our signals.
I'm going in.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
All right. Whoa.
Okay, okay.
Go.
Make sure no one is left alive.
In English, please.
For our guest.
I knew she'd make you come
crawling from under your rock.
Your love is your weakness.
Before you die,
you'll watch me kill her.
Like you killed my father.
I did not know your father
was in that factory.
Don't tell me you're sorry.
He was helping you sell
our people to foreigners.
I'm just sorry you weren't
in there with him.
Get down!
No, Oan!
Say it!
Say it!
No!
No, no! No, please! No!
Say goodbye to your daughter.
Leave her.
- Leave her!
- Say it!
- No!
- Say it!
Mina!
Ahmed!
You're not a killer.
Come on.
Mina, come on. We have to go!
Ahmed!
Ahmed! Ahmed!
In here! Ahmed!
Out! Out! Out!
Up! Up! Up!
You're making a big f***ing mistake.
That girl is under UK protection.
I thought she was legally dead.
Get down. Now! Get down!
- Shoot them off the road.
- What?
Shoot them off the road.
Now!
It's not working.
I led them to you.
Get out of the car.
We can hide between those rocks.
Get out!
Save yourself.
- For me.
- No!
No!
No, no, no!
No, no, no!
She is dead.
Shall we kill him?
He won't be causing us any more trouble.
He's just a paid idiot.
Go. Get out of here.
A victory in the battle
against terrorism today,
as terrorist Khalid Zeerak was killed
in an attack in the capital city of Bogh,
where he was believed to have been living
for almost a year without detection.
Ot's unclear how intelligence obtained
information as to his whereabouts.
The raid, conducted by
a specialist local armed force,
occurred in the early hours of this morning
and brought about an end
to Khalid's reign of terror
- over the tribe of Dagar Obrahami.
- No!
Nasco Oil is, and will continue
to destroy this region.
My people's homes are being cleared
to make way for the pipeline.
As long as Olive, O will stop at nothing
to expose and end this.
Saba.
Saba?
- Oh...
- Simon?
Mina? Is it you?
Oh, my God.
You're alive.
How?
I... I saw you in Khalid's car. You...
He kidnapped you.
No.
No, he...
You were there?
Yeah, um...
I... I found out where Olivia's holed up.
You're not safe out here.
You follow me, at a distance.
Keep your head down. Okay?
Okay.
You're alive.
You're alive.
And the man who killed
your parents is dead.
No.
It was Dagar. He made
us think it was Khalid.
What?
There's still trouble. Now, I told you
I wanted it to be clear by tonight.
It will be.
There are only
a few villages left to clear.
My men are on their way up there now.
You knew once Khalid was dead
there would be no resistance.
Look. There's to be no mention
of Khalid or village clearances
or your role with Mr Harm Helder, okay?
You're just the local advisor, all right?
You know
there'll be no pay-out without me.
There are plenty more
of your type out there.
It's not your oil to bargain with.
Careful. You're starting
to sound like Khalid.
Come on. We both know
you're motivated by money.
Fine. See you at the compound later.
Mina, I'm on your side.
No, you're not. You work for Dagar.
I didn't know that. I swear!
Intelligence don't, either.
Olivia clearly has her own private agenda.
He murdered my parents.
Don't you get it?
Olivia told them where my family was
so that they could get to Khalid.
She... She let them die.
All right.
You're alive. Your sister is alive.
I have a place in Canada for when I retire.
You'll be safe there.
What about these people?
Dagar's destroying their homes
so that the oil company can drill.
He's taking everything from them.
And he's going to get away with it
because we gave him Khalid.
Didn't you ask where your money
was coming from?
I'm not a politician.
So you're not going to do anything?
I'll tell you what I'm going to do.
I'm going to go to Olivia
