Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer Page #5

---

if you wanted to?

It is not I who draws the Destroyer here.

It is the beacon.

What's the beacon?

The source of my power.

Your board?

Take joy in the last few hours

you have left...

...for he is nearly here.

Well? I helped deliver

the alien to you, as promised.

Now it's time to keep

your end of the bargain.

You can do your tests on the board...

...but under armed guard

and in my presence only.

Absolutely.

General Hager. Access granted.

The board draws it here.

How do you fight something

that eats planets?

We have to get to the board

and lead it away from here.

Well, do you think the general

will go for that?

He'll have no choice.

Thank you, general.

But I'm afraid...

...the truth is...

...sometimes Reed is right.

What--?

Hey, you. Come here.

Let me ask you something.

Nice.

Crap.

Ben!

Okay, that one hurt.

- Where's Reed?

- Back here.

My bad.

Reed.

Victor. We've gotta get it back.

We need to get the Surfer.

He understands its power.

Even if we break him out of this place,

how are we gonna catch up to Victor?

Leave that to me.

- Halt!

- Stay where you are!

Pal, this is the luckiest day

of your life.

What the hell is going on?

Where is General Hager?

He's dead.

And if we don't get him out of here,

we'll all be.

Frankie...

...the world is literally at stake here.

You have to trust us.

Please.

We need to get to the roof.

It should be here by now.

What should be here?

Holy crap!

Reed.

This is by far the coolest thing

you have ever done.

- Hemi?

- Of course.

Okay, Ben, you get inside.

Johnny, you fly behind us.

- You gotta let me fly this.

- I'm the best pilot. I should drive.

- Guys.

- You're lucky if it can carry you.

- I can fly circles around you.

- Guys!

- Reed.

- Shut up! And move it!

I'm driving.

Flame on!

Okay. We're now officially enemies

of the United States of America.

Victor is out there somewhere

with unlimited power.

And we've got a giant

intergalactic force...

...that's about to destroy our planet in

less than 24 hours. Did I miss anything?

I've locked on Victor's energy trail.

He's headed over Southeast China.

Hang on.

Norrin Radd.

- What?

- I was once called Norrin Radd.

Norrin, we'll need your help

to save our world.

Do you understand?

What the hell was that?

Victor, the board is drawing the

Destroyer here. You have to give it up.

You know, I've never

been the giving type, Reed.

Hold on!

We're sitting ducks!

We're gonna have to split up!

- What?

- This ought to be fun!

He's really pissing me off!

Surf's up, metalhead!

Victor, only the Surfer can stop the

Destroyer. But he needs his board.

- Come and get it, Richards.

- Victor.

Let's all go for a spin!

Norrin!

Catch.

Sue!

Oh, my God.

Sue. Sue.

- Oh, God.

- Johnny, don't touch her!

Oh, God. Oh, God.

You need to find a way

to get the board.

- Sue, l....

- Okay.

He is here.

Reed?

Reed.

Victor's gotta have a pulse emitter

linking him to his board.

We take it out,

we can separate him from his board.

He's too strong for me.

I could whale on him if I get close...

...but he could see me coming

from a mile away.

It would take all of us.

Or maybe just one of us.

We don't know

what it could do to you.

Let's not make this about me.

To quote a friend of mine...

...it's clobbering time.

You ain't going down fighting, kid.

Not without me.

You've gotta go.

Treasure each moment with her.

And tell her she was right.

We do have a choice.

Thought you could use a hand.

Oh, my God.

Why isn't it working?

We were too late.

I will no longer serve.

This is the end for us both.

Hi.

Hi.

What did I miss?

Hey! Hey!

- He did it.

- Great job, kid.

Hey, wait. I'm not changing.

Hey, that's right.

Great.

Okay, now you're making

me uncomfortable.

So I guess this is it.

We all go our separate ways.

No.

- No?

- No.

- No?

- lf not for the team...

...the whole world would be gone.

We can't run away from our

responsibilities. This is who we are.

- That's what I've been saying.

- What about having a normal life?

- A family?

- Who says you have to be normal...

...to have a family?

So are you up for another media-circus

wedding? Fifth time's a charm.

No.

I got a better idea.

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here

today to join Reed Richards...

...and Sue Storm together in holy...

...matrimony.

- What is it?

- Venice is sinking into the Adriatic.

Oh, boy. That's a biggie.

Could we just skip to the end?

- Yeah. The love these two share--

- No, the very end.

Yeah, great. You have the rings?

Oh, yeah.

I now pronounce you man and wife,

and you may kiss the bride.

- Okay. We should get out of here.

- Yeah.

- Gotta go, hon.

- Okay.

I have to throw the bouquet.

Ready?

Heads up, Johnny.

Sorry.

Reflex.
