La isla misteriosa Page #9

---

That's right.

We must have enough space for the provisions.

But it's all gone!

My tobacco too!

A rifle is missing as well!

All weapons were complete this morning.

Maybe it was the others?

After they have given them to us?

They've got more than enough!

They wouldn't steel my pipe and my tobacco.

- And what about the ammunition?

- Who knows? Nobody counted it.

This mad man! lt was him!

l'm going to pull up the ladder!

That won't help. He climbs like a monkey!

But Harbert! That's what l'm trying to explain.

He didn't steel the rifle for hunting!

But why is only one rifle missing?

Who knows what's going on in his head.

Besides we have caught him like a wild animal.

Maybe he was happy on this island?

That would be possible.

And if that's the case he's got any reason to believe

that we are his enemies.

Gentlemen!

Don't go! lt could be a trap!

l'll find out.

Just a second Cyrus! l'll go. Without you and

Pencroff the boat cannot be build.

Gentlemen! Please! l want to talk to you!

Go on!

Come over here! Come on Ayrton!

l'm not Ayrton. l'm Ben Joyce.

Alright Ben Joyce. Sit down.

Sit!

Go ahead Ben Joyce!

l'm not Ben Joyce.

- Make up your mind!

Ben Joyce was the leader of some prisoners who

managed to escape.

He was infamous because of his cruelty.

l wanted to take over the Duncan

and make a pirate ship of it.

l held the children of Captain Grant as hostages.

But they found Captain Grant at Tabor island.

And since they knew my plan...

... they left me behind on this island.

Lord Glenawan said

l should be hung.

But he also said: Ayrton

l will give you one last chance.

ln the human society you've become an animal.

You must try to become a human being again.

ln the presence of wild animals.

And then he said:

One day l'll return. And if you are worth it

l will take you back to civilization.

That was...

March the 18th 1857.

l think l am a human being again.

- But what about the rifle?

- And my pipe and tobacco?

l don't understand. What are you talking about?

We have been stolen a rifle and Mr. Pencroff's

tobacco and his pipe.

You are the only one who could have done it.

You'll give us back those things - escpecially the rifle

- and the case is dismissed.

Otherwise taking into account your dark past

we are forced to take precautions.

l didn't steel anything! - That's a lie!

- No that's the truth!

- We'll have to arrest you.

- No!

l swear l did not steal anything!

No!

Are you surprised Top?

Come here good boy.

Gentlemen l think we must apologize to Ayrton.

Oh no Jupiter! Give me back my pipe!

Pencroff!

What's the matter?

Come over here for a second.

lnstead of imitating me you should be taking Mr.

Smith as your idol!

You could learn a lot from him.

You are a cheeky monkey.

- You can't do anything against it.

He thinks that you are his father.

Ahoy!

A ship!

A ship ahead!

A ship!

Over here!

Ayrton! ls that the Duncan?

No the Duncan is a steamboat.

The rifles! Get the rifles!

We're going to shoot a salute!

He's mad! What's wrong with you?

Pull down the sails!

What are they doing?

They've set up a flag.

What's the matter with you Finch?

What's this shooting all about?

There are white men on the island.

And they are armed.

White men?

How many?

Yes cast aways.

There must be more judging by the ship they build.

All we wanted was an island

where we can hide and now this.

Enough! l want to talk to the carpenter.

Get the carpenter up here.

Coming.

How much ammunition have we got left Spilett?

Nearly none.

l'll take a look in the cave.

No Pencroff! They'll shoot you!

Captain! Over there!

Fire!

That's no use. We won't get them that way.

How long do you need

that nobody recognizes the ship?

About 15 days.

Do you think you could do that?

l'm very fast. Different paint another mast 15 days.

Where are we going to stay for 15 days?

That's none of your concern. We'll take the rowboat.

- But Captain. We are a pretty good

target on that boat.

We won't come as pirates but as friends.

Get me a white flag.

They push off a boat.

The boat is ready Captain.

Good.

This time you better watch it!

- Don't worry Captain. Whatever happens.

No one will be left.

Take off!

Tell me Ayrton. You know the habits of these people.

What would they do if we shot at them?

They would slaughter us.

Anybody who has seen them must not survive.

We could testify against them.

Do you know the man who holds the flag?

That's Bob Harvey.

Don't Ayrton!

That's a personal matter Mr. Smith!

There'll be no shooting!

As you say. But you're going to regret that.

And the rest of us too.

We are not armed. We are coming as friends!

We are not armed! We are coming as friends!

We are not armed! We are coming as friends!

You can trust us!

Alright. You've asked for it!

Fire!

Come on boys!

Kill them!

The cliff!

Fire!

Our cave!

Get your head down!

We're running out of ammunition.

- We've got some more in the cave.

l'm going to get it. Or we're finished.

Harbert Nab and Pencroff!

Try to get them from the side.

Ready?

Now!

We're coming later on.

They are trying to escape! Get them!

Get in the boat! Hurry up!

Home sweet home!

We're out of water.

- Doesn't matter.

There are enough wells in the forest.

Why don't we stay here? That's a fortress!

Or a death trap.

One of them at each entrance and we're stuck.

All they have to do is to wait until we starve.

We'll take the arrows with us. They kill silently.

Why don't we ask the strangers for help?

How do you want to get in touch with them?

- l'm afraid Harbert but we've got to make that

without them.

Besides we don't know if they would help us.

This way! - Move it!

The coast seems to be clear.

There must be some black powder

in the cave. l'll take a look!

No. Take this. l'll take care of that.

Now we are trapped.

l'm going to pay you back!

We shouldn't stay here.

We have no chance in here.

Do you hear that?

They are climbing the cliff.

Go on!

Nice to meet you.

Finch how is it?

They are trapped in the hole.

Let's go.

Don't shoot!

Come on friends! lt was a misunderstanding!

You've got my word!

l know what your word is worth.

l don't believe it!

Somebody knows me for over 10 years!

lt really is a small world.

Are you Ben Joyce?

Answer me! lf it is you Ben Joyce

then come out there!

We are the best friends!

l'll give you a cut from the bounty!

lt's over with Ben Joyce!

l'm not a pirate anymore and l'm going to finish you!

Alright.

lf it really is Ben Joyce then without me Captain.

And what about you Garcia? l am offering you 25.

- For what? To spend the rest

of my life with remorses?

l've thought it over. l'm in no hurry.

lt's not going to take long and you and your friends

will come crawling to me whining for some water.

You are going to regret that Ben!

What's the matter?

Nothing. l just wanted to look after you.

What are they doing?

l don't know.

Once in a while l see a shadow.

Are you crazy? Harbert come back!
