Demon Knight Page #3

Who are you?

Really.

I'm just an old man...

...running out of time.

Well, well, well.

Isn't this sweet?

Soiled dove and her

square-jawed postal clerk.

- You're a bastard.

- I ain't the one who tried to kill you.

Shithead, you left me

out there.

Who in the hell told you

to follow me?

You're absolutely right.

Nobody.

Now I know

who my friends are.

Whores ain't got no friends.

That's all the doors

and window sealed.

Any other ways in or out of this

place? Aside from doors and windows?

Got some place you

want us to put him?

Jeryline, let's go

make some coffee.

Looks like we're in

for a long night.

Where did you get that

from? It was my husband's.

Cleo! Hi, baby.

You let the cat in.

She just appeared.

Brayker, what are you doing?

Animals aren't immune.

They can be possessed.

Give me the cat! Sh*t!

What the hell's going on?

The cat. The cat.

Brayker, my cat is not possessed

by some demon from hell.

We'll see.

Listen, I got to talk to you. What?

I got nothing to say. I just

gotta talk to you for a second.

I don't want to talk. Why don't you

bother somebody else? Just for a second.

You want to talk? Let's talk

about how you abandoned Cordelia.

How you left her to die.

Huh?

I hope you're ashamed of

yourself. Not particularly, no.

Everybody's got

to look out their selves.

- I'm for getting out of here.

- No one's going anywhere till Mr. Brayker says so.

Hey, f*** him!

This is his fight.

You may want to die in

this motel, but I don't.

I want to get that key, and I want

to give it to those things out there.

Hey, Roach. Haven't you caused

just about enough trouble?

Excuse me. I'm trying to have a

conversation with my friend, Wally.

He's not your friend.

A**holes don't have friends.

Excuse us.

Can I talk to you

for a second, please?

Jesus, Roach!

So... You got yourself

a new boyfriend.

You get in my way

and I'll kill you.

Keep it in your pants

for a change.

I'm warning you, b*tch.

I'm not afraid of you.

No?

You better be afraid

of me.

Come here, girl.

Come on.

Cleo, come on.

Cleo?

Come to mommy.

Come on.

Come here, girl.

Come here, Cleo.

Come on.

I got you, girl.

Come on, Brayker.

See, I told you. Hey,

look... where she came from.

Breeze.

Poor, Cordelia.

Seems downright criminal to

treat a pretty girl that way.

Did I say pretty?

I meant beautiful.

'Cause you are. You

are beautiful, Cordelia.

Inside and out.

Maybe nobody here can

see it, but I sure can.

I understand you.

I know what you want.

I know what you need.

Guys like Roach,

they think...

...just because they're paying for

it that they can treat you like sh*t.

If they spend the same money

on dinner and a movie...

...they can call you "girlfriend"

instead of "whore. "

Whore, what a horrible word

that is...

...to use on someone who's really

just a sad girl who's looking for love.

Tender, warm,

unconditional love.

I can give you that love,

as much as you can take.

All you have to do

is let me in.

Let me in.

Cordelia?

Cordelia?

Cordelia?

You okay?

- Hello, Wally.

- Hello, Cordelia.

I realized something awful

about myself tonight, Wally.

My whole life, I've avoided

the guys who really loved me.

Like you.

You really love me,

don't you, Wally?

Yes, Cordelia,

I really love you.

I've always loved you.

From the very first time

I delivered your mail.

Well, don't just do it

with your eyes, Wally.

It's some kind of tunnel.

It's a mine shaft.

Not surprising. The whole

area's riddled with them.

This means this

is a way out.

We can get to town before those

things find out we're gone.

No.

No, it's too risky.

What? Now, listen. What

the hell are you saying?

Trust me.

You're safer in this house.

Sh*t!

What was that?

What's going on?

Oh, God!

What's in there?

- Cordelia?

- Ahhhh!

Oh, man!

Shoot it, damn it!

- I can't! I can't!

Shoot 'em both!

Stop it, stop it!

Ahhh!

Irene!

Ahhhh!

Ahhhh!

Ohh!

Go ahead.

Give it to me!

Sh*t! It's still bleeding. Here.

We've got to get her outta here.

She'll bleed to death.

We've got to take

our chances in the mines.

The spur that runs under here

comes to a head in a mile.

- I say we do it.

- F***, yeah.

What makes you think

they haven't found the mines?

Has everybody f***in' had it

with you tellin' us what to do?

If we want to go out to the

mines, we're going out that way.

We don't need

your f***in' permission.

I got an idea that's gonna

save us that walk.

- We give those damn demons what they want.

- Mr. Roach...

I'm not gonna give you the key.

You're gonna have to take it.

Then I'm gonna have

to kill you, right?

Right?

- If you say so.

- I say so.

Now listen to me,

all of you.

You don't know

what you're up against.

Go down there,

I can't help you.

You've been doing a real

fine job of helping us so far.

Last I looked, we were missing

Wally and Cordelia...

...and half her arm.

So f*** you!

I'm going.

Let's go.

Owwwww!

Hey, Brayker.

Don't worry. I'll save you.

No!

Hey, handsome,

age before beauty.

Yeah, and pearl before swine,

shithead.

Ohhh!

Ohh! Jeez!

You know something, Willy?

Huh?

You're so dried up, the demons

will probably throw you back.

Well, the sons of b*tches

ain't gonna get us.

I know these mines.

Used to own the damn place.

I'm gonna find that north spur

and get us the hell out of here.

Sh*t, now!

Irene?

Irene?

You sure this

is the way out?

No doubt about it.

This here's the north spur.

Course,

if we're heading west...

...then the other one is north.

Why don't we just sit down

here and wait for them? No.

That way!

Let's do it.

Yeah, this is it.

The north spur's just ahead.

I don't know how anybody

ever worked down here.

Smells like a big ol'

pile of do-do. Help me.

It's the bat sh*t.

You get used to it.

I remember the first time

we struck pay dirt down here.

Mommy.

Hello?

Danny, is that you?

How the hell did you

get down here?

Come on. Come on, Danny.

I'm not gonna hurt you.

I promise.

Come on. Come on.

You all right?

- Mom?

- Sh*t!

They're here!

The demons are here! Run!

Let's go! Let's go!

Move, move, move!

Ugh!

Thanks, Chief.

Don't worry. They can't

get past the seal.

Homer.

This is for four years

of minimum wage, you a**hole.

No!

Don't shoot!

Uh-oh!

You broke the seal. Run!

Danny, go upstairs!

Come on. Move it!

You got an "I told you so"

coming to you. Next time.

At least we're all

in one piece.

- Sorry about that, Irene.

- It's okay. Vodka's kicking in.

- So what's the boy's name?

- Danny.

Hey, Danny.

How you doing?

Listen, what were you doing

down in the mines?

Well, the man, he came back. Yeah.

He got my parents.

I ran away.

Brayker!

It's all right.

I just have to check.

It's good to see you again,

Danny.

Hey, Bob.

How we fixed for ammo?

Oh, not too good.

Yeah, I'm down to four.

How 'bout shotgun shells?

Not up here.

Oh, man, this is hopeless.

F***in' hopeless.
