Where is the Wand?

We are police off...

officers.

And you can't do this to us.

Kill them!

Watch your friends die, Elf.

You didn't break.

You deserve to be blooded.

You would have made a great Orc.

I am... a great Orc.

My son earns his colors tonight.

Mikey.

Bye, partner.

Why are you waiting?

Father... I know him.

Ward...

He helped me escape from the police.

That's the guy...

that I let go.

He saved my life. I cannot kill him.

Go home.

You can't be here.

F*** you, you green pig-nose

piece of sh*t.

Shoot, b*tch.

- Beg for it! Beg!

- Shoot me, b*tch. Shoot, b*tch!

F*** you.

- Show your respect!

- F*** you! Do it! Shoot!

- Shoot, motherf***er! Bring it!

- Give us respect! Here it comes!

This is a Prophecy, for he has risen.

Hey, hey.

W- Ward?

What happened?

Uh... Nothing. Why?

Well, something happened. I feel great.

Uh...

- Nah, just go, go, go.

- Okay.

You're a Bright?

You're a f***ing Bright?

Would've been nice to know that

when we was getting f***ed up.

Could've had a magic helicopter

take us somewhere.

I only started my training.

I only know a few spell words.

She speaks English pretty good now, too.

- Now I trust you.

- Um...

You gonna need to unfuck this, okay?

A'ight? You gonna magic us to Palm Springs

or some sh*t.

I saved your friend's life.

Isn't that enough?

It's a start, but...

Uh, Ward, stop.

I happen to think it's a pretty big deal.

Thank you.

Now, Tikka, who are these Elves

who are hunting us?

They're aiding the return

of the Dark Lord...

so he can slaughter billions

and enslave the survivors

to serve him in a new age of magic.

Oh. That's all.

Just some Illuminati sh*t.

They're Inferni.

They destroyed the Illuminati

a hundred years ago.

How do you know all this?

I, too, am Inferni.

But I escaped.

The Shield of Light hid me.

Leilah gave an assassin her Wand

to kill me.

But I got the Wand from her.

Keep it away from Leilah.

She mustn't get her Wand back.

With it,

she can restore the Dark Lord to power.

Hey, what is that? What's the sh*t?

What's the black stuff?

Hey. Look... All right.

All right, hey, look,

don't-don't-don't check out on us.

Keep it away from her.

Keep the Wand away from Leilah.

- Promise me.

- Yes.

All right. She needs medical attention.

We gotta get her to an emergency room.

But how?

Got it. Let's go!

Go, go!

We won't let you die.

How do we save you?

Only the Shield of Light can help me.

Where are they?

Home.

- Home.

- Home? Where's home?

Wait, home.

Uh... the Abrams' house?

Everybody was dead there.

There's a pool.

The pools are... connected like...

the roots of a holy tree.

Ward, she's dying. We have to take her

back to where we found her.

- No. We are not going back to that house.

- Yes.

We're gonna get to the hospital.

There's doctors there.

We're gonna turn her and the Wand

over to the feds.

- Ward. Ward.

- I want my life back.

She brought me back from the dead.

Hey, don't kook out on me right now,

all right?

We don't know exactly what happened.

You have to accept the miracle.

- We're not going back to that house.

- You and me are simple people.

We mean nothing.

People don't write about us.

But this, don't you see,

is like a time of heroes?

Jirak was unblooded like me.

An Orc that nobody cared about.

He...

He united the Nine Armies,

and they defeated the Dark Lord. He...

He was a farmer who changed the world.

They raised their blades to him.

He was blooded in that very moment.

He fulfilled a great Prophecy, Ward.

I think we might be in a Prophecy.

- We're not in a Prophecy, all right?

- How do you know?

We're in a stolen Toyota Corolla.

- No.

- Okay? Look at my face.

All right? This is not a Prophecy face.

This is a bad-night face.

Okay? And we're gonna get to the hospital,

and the feds are gonna put an end to it.

Shut the f*** up, Ward, and listen to me.

We have to go back.

There's nothing ahead of us.

Ah, man. These guys are feds.

Oh, sh*t.

I get the big gun.

Ah.

I didn't mind having the big gun.

That... That's a bomb.

Yes, it is.

- You want me to hold it?

- Yes, I do.

W... Why?

You never know.

I sit before you, Lord of Darkness.

Serving your will is my honor.

I will return you to this world.

They're coming!

There! In the wall!

Shoot through the wall!

Ward!

Nick!

Nick! Let's go!

Jakoby!

I gave her the bomb.

You never know.

Swipe left.

Oh, sh*t.

Shoot her!

Shoot her!

Nick, will you please shoot her!

Shoot! Shoot her!

Good work.

The water. Put me in the water.

Hey. You're done. I got it from here.

So what now?

Have faith.

She's coming.

Nick!

The hell are you?

I'm a warrior.

A priestess, a lover.

I am whatever my Lord needs me to be.

Come home.

Please, come home.

I can't go back.

Dream with me again.

What you love is broken, rotten.

This man and the Orc...

...what are they to you?

- They're good.

- No.

It's time to come home.

It's time to come home.

- It's too late. I can't come home.

- It's time to wake up.

So just shut up and kill me.

Just shut up and kill me!

- This is not you!

- Shut up and kill me!

This is not you! This is you!

What have you done to my sister?

What have you done to her?

What did you do?

Sh*t.

Nick, if you were aiming at the Wand,

that was a really good shot.

But shoot her in her head!

Like this?

I can't.

I'm out.

No!

You're not a Bright.

You touch my Wand...

and it will splatter you

all over the walls.

I think that's kind of the plan.

Think I'mma just kill us all.

Ward...

I wouldn't do that.

It's all right.

We're in a Prophecy, right?

Oh... Oh!

This is impossible.

Hey, Nick, I got the Wand.

Um, what now?

Maybe you're a... You're a Bright, Ward.

Use it!

Oh, good idea.

Give it to me...

or she dies.

Vykwarus.

The war word is Vykwarus.

Vykwarus!

We got a Bright in there!

Aah!

Tikka. Tikka.

- Tikka!

- Ward! It's okay.

- She just... She rolled in.

- Come on, Ward!

- She's gone. It's okay.

- I didn't hurt her.

- Tikka!

- Ward, Tikka's okay.

She's gone.

- Tikka!

- Ward, think of Sophia.

Come on, Ward!

Orc!

Stand down.

Stand down.

Ward!

Ward!

No!

Daryl!

You're safe now.

Ward!

Daryl!

Ward!

Ward!

I know. I gotcha.

Got him!

Ward! We made it!

We got out!

I got you. You're okay.

Are you okay?

Breathe, Ward.

Say something.

Nick... look.

Oh.

Still not my friend.

I never really liked you anyway.

Think you're a big dog

now you're blooded, huh?

Yeah, pretty big.

Hey, Nick.

Yeah.

F*** magic.

Well, I don't know.

I still think it's kinda cool.

How you doing, fellas?

- Good?

- Hey.

Nick, the firemen are here.

- We should've been firemen.

- Yeah.

Hey, can I get a aspirin?

Hey, Clan Blood.

Daryl.

Oh, Daryl.

How are you feeling?

You feeling okay?

Uh, yeah.

Okay, I get it.

Oh, sh*t.

Well, that can't be good.

Yeah.

Why you not locked up?

I think they think

you're more dangerous than me.

Hey.

Don't say sh*t.

- Sir, we were just responding to a call.
