Crystal Skulls Page #6

Easy, Sienna.

Don't antagonize the man.

He's got a sword.

Yeah, the professor has a point.

Go on, enjoy your banter,

because it will all end now.

What is it that you're after?

You know what we're after.

You've been following us.

Yes.

It is our job to protect the thirteen.

Skulls.

They possess incredible power

when they are brought together.

Something your father did.

Before you die, I wanted to ask you

what it is you thought would happen

once you found that

which you seek?

We need to work together

in order to stop it.

Stop what?

Don't you know?

The destruction caused

by the twelve skulls

being brought together.

We need the thifleenth to stop it.

Well, if a man was foolish

enough to trifle

with this power,

then it is he who has brought upon

himself this destruction.

You cannot save them.

Now prepare.

John!

Don't worry, look away.

It'll only take a second.

Stop!

Give me the sword.

Hello, junior.

Dad?

We buried you.

We thought you were dead somewhere.

I'm sorry, son.

We looked for you for so long, Dad.

And then I found your journal.

I left it in a place

I knew it would be discovered.

I had hoped if you found it,

it would give you some answers.

It gave me answers,

but far more questions.

It's basically what got me here.

What happened, Dad?

Where did you go?

I know you have a lot of questions,

and you should.

I've been after the thirteenth

skull for so many years,

I had come so close,

and then I found this place

and the brotherhood.

This is the brotherhood's last stronghold.

It holds the last of our secrets.

What secrets?

I found the skull, John.

It's real, just like

I always knew it would be!

They gave me a choice.

I could die,

or I could join with them

in protecting the secrets of the skulls.

I had been searching so long,

nothing else mattered.

Obviously your family didn't matter.

Your choice lead to your son's death.

Terry died

wanting to follow in your footsteps.

I loved you and your brother

more than you will ever know,

but this was something I couldn't refuse.

After everything I had seen,

everything I had learned.

It wasn't a choice,

it was my destiny.

Maybe your destiny

could be put to good use.

The world is the thirteenth skull,

Dad.

You know they will

never let you have it.

Don't let Terry's death be in vain!

Without the skull, billions will die.

If the skulls have been gathered,

and the end of the world has begun,

so be it.

This is man's destiny.

Man's destiny rides on your shoulders.

You understand that they cannot

ever leave this place now.

Yes, I know.

I only ask that

I do not have to watch.

Yeah, we wouldn't want

you to be upset

watching your last

son be killed for your destiny!

You're going to kill us here,

in the pyramid?

Do you have no honour?

Woman, do not speak

to me like this!

I have spent my life

defending the honour of this place.

There is never honour for those who kill,

Hussein!

I'm sorry, old friend.

Follow me, this way!

No, sir, the squadron is in

the air awaiting orders.

The magnetic field is at 95 percent, sir.

It's time we get everybody out of here.

Colonel, your bombs aren't going to do

what you think they will.

Just give them more time.

I'll give them as much time as I can.

After that, I'm under orders.

Thank you.

Thank me if we all live that long.

We've gotta get out of here.

Mitchell, call my father.

Dad, what are you doing?

This place is my life, John.

I have nowhere to go.

Let me die here.

I don't deserve to live after

what I did to the brotherhood.

What're you talking about?!

You have a different life now,

you've got a granddaughter!

I have a granddaughter?

Yes! Terry's daughter!

She's going to be seven!

- Really?

- Yes!

Dad!

I'm sorry, son.

Dad, no!

Come on, we have to go.

John, come on! Now!

- Dad!

- Come on, John, now!

Sir, the magnetic fields

are at 100 percent.

I'm afraid your people are out of time,

Mr. Hadden.

Alpha Squadron, time to target?

Copy that.

Eight minutes.

We've got to get everyone out

at a safe minimum distance

before detonation.

You heard them, they're on their way!

I've given them as much time as I can,

Mr. Hadden.

We can't wait any longer.

- We're finished here.

- Yes, sir.

Daddy!

I told you they'd make it.

I'm not re-calling the bombs

until I'm certain this thing works.

Let's do this before it's too late.

The suit should protect

you from the light.

It limits your exposure to any

ionizing radiation,

but I can't make any promises.

I don't actually know what's happening,

but it seems that the vortex is dissipating

and the storm seems to be coming to an end!

John.

Oh, thanks.

I think we need to get a drink.

And when I say we I mean me.

It's your round, professor.

Are you ok, sir?

Call my doctor.

Right away, sir.

- Colonel.

- Yes?

If you could possibly help me

with something...

If I can.

Key Nine to Base, we're ready.

Alright, seal the chamber.

Copy that.

It's over.

What now?

One second.

Her father is dead.

Sienna, I'm so sorry.

It's ok,

I guess I knew it was coming

I just didn't know when.

I understand.

I guess you do,

more than anyone else.

CMV has just learned

that mysterious billionaire

William Hadden has died.

It is not known exactly when

Mr. Hadden passed,

but his representatives say

that it was some time last week.

Not since Howard Hughes

has there been so much mystery

surrounding the death of a billionaire.
