Lara Croft: Tomb Raider Page #3

I found the temple.

Ran into Mr Powell.

- Did you get the clock?

- No, but I got the first piece.

Oh, beautiful, smashing.

Seems I'm level begging

with Mr Powell.

- Won't he want to kill you now?

- No, silly.

His problem is that he needs

the piece that I have.

Until then, I'm his new best friend.

What about the other half?

The final alignment

is in 66 hours and 53 minutes.

We've still got no idea

where the second piece is hidden.

He's going to tell me

where it is.

- He will?

- Trust me. Pack for Venice.

Pack for where? Hello? Lara?

Bye then.

Drink.

Rest.

There is no rest

for the wicked.

- You got what you came for?

- I did, yes.

Too bad. Bad for the world.

- The world is safe now.

- A little bit safer, perhaps.

Because you will go on.

Your father said

you will never give up.

My father?

You knew my father?

Now drink. Finish your tea.

It tastes quite bad,

but it's good for you.

See?

Good evening.

You're with the Illuminati.

I beg your pardon?

There's no such thing.

It's just a bedtime story.

- Illuminati.

- The People of the Light.

Have you brought my triangle?

No. Of course, you haven't.

You've hidden it somewhere.

Well, you can keep

the triangle you have...

and I will keep your father's clock

and we can be partners.

Who sits here?

We can be partners

and go for the big prize.

- The Triangle of Light.

- Yes, but who sits here?

It's an incredible dream.

An awesome power.

- It could set right so many wrongs.

- I don't think you sit here, do you?

I sit here...

on God's right hand, as it were.

In fact, I now sit exactly

where your father sat.

You're lying.

No, he mentored me in the order.

It was truly an honour.

I don't believe you.

My father was not with the Illuminati.

He would have told me.

He had a great many secrets.

- Not from me.

- Especially from you.

- I know what you want, Lara.

- Oh, I doubt it.

Another life with your father.

A second chance.

It will be within my power to give.

The triangle gives its possessor

the power of God...

...to move back and forth

through time, undo the past.

Help me and you will get

what I know you want.

To have your father

returned to you.

How do I know that once

I gave you that piece

that you wouldn't

try to kill me?

Would it make it easier for you?

On more familiar ground...

if I killed you now?

Will you reconsider?

Hello, Alex.

You think I'm a greedy, unscrupulous

sell-out who'd do anything for money?

- Yes, that's right.

- Well, the money bit's true, I guess.

Is it, Alex?

If you cross me, we may not be able

to remain friends.

Always a pleasure.

Now for a cold shower.

- We're in big trouble.

- Hold this, will you?

They already think that we have

Lady Croft's piece of the triangle.

Yes, they think it's in that box

you're carrying right now.

Is it?

Why don't you worry about

something else? Of course, it's not.

I don't understand. What chance of

success do we have without the piece?

- Zero. Don't dwell on it.

- But...

What a nice surprise.

Thank you.

Now, time to save the universe

again then, is it?

Absolutely.

Are we sure

she is really necessary?

One tomb raider is good,

two... better.

My bum has gone asleep again,

all down the left cheek.

Really? That's fascinating.

- How much longer?

- A few hours.

We have to take the last hour

overland.

Helicopters won't fly

near the ruined city.

It's a dead zone.

We take all doggies, da?

Mucho U.S. greenback, da?

All doggies.

Welcome to the dead zone.

It's not a country, it's an ice cube.

Come on!

Right.

Let's go.

Go on, get it!

Holy sh*t!

It's a time storm.

Time is broken here.

We must find the Eye!

All of you! Hurry!

We are running out of time!

Hurry!

It's begun.

is inside the sun.

For God's sake, hurry!

The eclipse will be over in a few minutes.

Alex, give me the clock,

I know what to do.

Has she got the piece?

We will now unite these two parts.

The past and the present.

At last, we of the Illuminati

will control time and fulfil

the sacred promise to our ancestors.

- Soon the entire world...

- Enough of this twaddle.

Come on!

Not quite what you hoped for,

Mr Powell?

Oh, Lara,

I have a gut instinct about this.

After all, you are the daughter

of a genius.

Let me test my theory.

You had to let him go.

No more bubbles.

You show me

how to complete the triangle

and we can change his fate.

If you deliver me the power of God,

I will spare him.

It's only a little trip back in time.

But I'm pretty sure you've figured out

the answer to the problem.

And then, of course,

there's the loss of your father.

I can change that.

You'd better be ready for this.

- Unhook your laser sight.

- Do it!

To see a world in a grain of sand.

Oh, God!

Daddy?

Is this real?

It is a crossing of my past

and your present.

Why did you not tell me

about the Illuminati?

You were only a child.

You could have written it in your journals.

You never mentioned it. Not once.

I burst to tell you everything,

but in the fierceness

of my own battles,

I told you only that which would

inspire you and keep you safe.

I love you so much.

- I have missed you.

- And I have missed you.

I know why you came here,

why you took the power of the light.

- But this must not happen.

- Why?

Why can't we use the power

just this once?

- Why can't you stay?

- We can't change time.

But time was stolen from us...

and it's not fair.

No, it's not fair.

But you have stolen time itself

and you must give it back.

You must destroy the triangle.

- Suddenly I feel so alone.

- You are never alone.

I am with you always,

just as I've always been.

Move out!

Wait! Your father begged for his life

when we caught him betraying us.

He pleaded like a baby.

Surrender.

Never.

He seemed particularly concerned

that I should not take this.

Lara, no.

The place is coming down!

- This is insane!

- Get them out of here.

You just hurry.

There you go.

Safe and sound.

No guns.

Oh, my God!

Quiet.

What?
