Excuse me. I'm sorry to bother you,

but I'm looking for your neighbor.

You're not alone.

Thank you.

You have to be careful, Svetlana.

A vampire?

Yes, I'm a vampire!

That's me!

[ Grunting ]

Excuse him. Please.

Really. No laws are being broken.

- I'm not accusing you of anything.

- Look.

- I-I'm not.

- We have the registration.

- I'm not accusing you.

- Here is a permit, see?

And everything in

the fridge is good.

- There's some cheese, milk.

- I'm sorry.

- Potatoes.

- Papa, go inside.

- Don't do this to yourself!.

- Kostya! Kostya!

[ Cell Phone Rings ]

[ Beeps ]

- Hello?

- Hello. Anton?

- Who is it?

- It's me, Svetlana.

Svetlana. You know he has a family.

A son.

Please don't call him anymore.

[ Beeping ]

[ Gasps, Shouts ]

[ Breathing Heavily]

[ Sobbing ]

[Beeping]

Riceplov.

You eat it with your hands.

[Cell Phone Ringing, Muffled]

You like it?

Uh, Papa, will you

come and eat with us?

- And who would that be?

- With me... and Mom.

- [Muffled Ringing Continues ]

- Yegor, I can't come with you.

I have another... Life.

- Yegor, understand-

- [Ringing Continues ]

You'll come anyway!

[Bells Jingle ]

[Bells Jingle ]

Zoar, why didn't it work for me?

I put it where you told me to.

This is the place

where my fate happens.

Plov - that's 150 rubles.

And your fate is somewhere else.

You can't change

the fate of another.

Every living person

must answer for his own.

Do you remember where it was...

you broke your own destiny?

You waited... till now to say this?

You didn't ask.

And so it's my fault?

I am sorry, Anton.

What's the matter?

[ Exhales ]

He took the Chalk.

[ Phone Ringing ]

- Hello.

- [ Anton ] Sorry. Uh, I know it's late...

- but could I speak with Yegor?

- Are you crazy?

It's 1:
00 in the morning.

Yegor's asleep.

[ Beeping ]

- [ Beeping ]

- [Vehicle Approaches ]

Listen. Can you take me

to the Expo Center?

[Man ]

Zavulon! We found him!

[Man #2 ]

Go on! Finish him off!

[Zavulon On Phone ]

You idiots! I need him alive.

Just run him around

for a while, okay?

[ Horn Honks ]

[ Screams ]

[ Bel Is Jingle ]

- Anton.

- Boris, I'll look over this way.

Is anyone here? Anton.

- [Door Closes ]

- [Bells Jingle ]

Zoar?

There isn't anyone here.

- [Seta] What's that?

- I think it's his phone.

But why is it broken?

The Dark Ones want the Chalk too.

The big game begins.

[ No Audible Dialogue ]

[ Growls ]

"9th LEGION"

What do you think youre doing?

What station is this?

[Footsteps Approaching]

[Train Horn Honks ]

I'm gone.

Okay. What's going on?

Stay there!

I mean it!

Stay there!

Freeze!

Don't move!

Don't move!

Stop!

[ Gunshots ]

Who was it you spoke to?

I don't know. They told me

not to call there again.

Yegor.

- Why was he here?

- The Chalk's with him.

[Rumbling]

[Rumbling Continues ]

- What is it?

- What?

Just a sec.

- Remember Yegor's address?

- Got it.

- Then let's go.

- Right.

- Please get her.

- Sveta.

- [ Knocks ]

- [Toilet Flushes ]

- Sveta?

- [ Knocks ]

Flushed out.

Wanted to get out of the cold, huh?

Take me anywhere.

Sure thing.

[Beads Rattle Softly]

[ Rattling Softly]

[ Screams ]

Uncle Zavulon,

why are we the Dark Ones?

Imperfections are hidden

in darkness, Yegor.

And people...

always have their imperfections.

It allows us the luxury

of doing what we want.

Of being exactly who we truly are.

Gives us the gift of love.

Look what I found, Uncle Zavulon.

The Chalk of Fate.

[Phone Line Ringing]

[ Rings, Beeps ]

- Hello.

- Zavulon.

- What now?

- Have you got the Chalk?

No.

- You do not have the right to touch it.

- I know that.

So, what's up with your shindig?

- You are inviting me?

- No, but I'll take some pictures.

[ Beeps ]

Slow down, Semyon.

I want you to get everyone

over to the Hotel Cosmos.

- Where are you going?

- Ah, I need to change.

Alicia.

[Yegor]

You could correct your mistakes with it.

- [Zavulon ] No. Why don't you keep it?

- [ Yegor] What about you?

- [Zavulon ] I don't need it.

- I n your whole life, no errors were made?

- I just don't regret them.

- Then what should I do with it?

You could give it to Alicia.

What does she regret?

[ Zavulon ]

What do women normally regret?

Loving wrong.

[Singing]

Sure you're making

the right decision?

I just can't live like this, scared to death

of shadows, fearing every phone call.

Not me.

I'm not afraid of anybody.

[ Singing ]

Even if you're like us,

you're still a human being.

[ Singing ]

Human, Papa?

[CD Case Clatters]

Can you turn me back into a human?

No. No.

But listen.

[ Singing ]

Son. Son!

Listen here.

Wait a minute.

[ Shouts ]

[ Shouts ]

[ Cawing ]

[Phone Rings ]

- [ Zavulon ] Alicia, are you coming?

- Yes.

- [Zavulon ] We're starting.

- On my way.

And don't fiddle with the ring.

It hurts.

Kostya.

[ Knocks ]

Why did you come here?

Not welcome?

You are.

Close the door.

- Hello.

- Hello.

[ Whispering ]

I'm going to take you from here.

[Knocking]

Zavulon.

- [Knocking Continues ]

- Coming.

- I said-

- Good evening. I-

Come back later.

- I'll go.

- Kostya, wait.

- No.

- There's something I have to explain to you.

- No need.

- I can't do this. He feels everything I feel.

Do you understand?

- I can't take it off.

- I'll help you.

Don't. He'll kill you.

- I'm not afraid.

- I am.

- [Knocking]

- I believe I told you to come back later!

- Listen. I said-

- Come on. Time to go.

- And who's this?

- Neighbor of Gorodetsky.

- Knows him in any disguise.

- Hmm.

- So, where's your dad?

- Uh-

[ Exhales Deeply]

[ Breathing Heavily]

The person you're calling

is not in range now.

[ Both Laughing ]

- [Thud]

- [ Groans ]

[ Groaning ]

- Does that hurt?

- [ Laughing ]

[ Groans ]

[Groaning, Sobbing]

- Come on.

- [ Whimpering ]

Come on. Stay. Stay.

- [ Whimpering Continues ]

- Come on.

Okay. Okay.

You have no right to do this. This is against

the law. Stop it! You can't do this!

- [ Groans ]

- There we go.

[ Groaning ]

Okay. Let's see now.

What have we got?

- I'm just following orders.

- Oh, yes. I understand. Absolutely.

I do just what I'm told.

Good bird. That's Gosha.

- Gosha's going to the hotel for some kid's birthday.

- [Anton ] That's it.

What idea do you have?

What idea do you have?

No. You won't get away with it.

Everybody knows exactly

what your ugly face looks like.

But- But-

[ Groaning ]

Not my style, of course.

[ Screams ]

[ Gasping ]

[ Whimpering ]

[Whimpering Continues ]

[ Crows Cawing]

- Sorry. Running a little late.

Where's the party going on?

- Top floor.

- Parrot's on his way to you.

- Right.

- How's the food?

- Not bad.

Hurry or you'll miss out.

Uh, Victor, give me your coat.

Hey, Victor.

- How's it going?

- [ Muffled Grunting ]

Don't "Victor" me.

"SECURITY:
VICTOR"

Oh.

- That's not you.

- [ Shouts ]

[ Groans ]

Where is he then?

- You know?

- [ Shouts ]

[ Buzzing ]

[ Buzzing Continues ]

Yegor!

Yegor!

[Buzzing Continues ]
