Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle Of Life Page #3

It will be yours once you've delivered the orb...

...along with Lady Croft's body.

I don't think you know where they are.

You're impossible you know that.

I think you pretended to know

so I would get you out.

This isn't a tomb Croft,

and the Shay Ling aren't mummies.

They're killers.

But if you don't trust me.

I'm sorry I have to do this

but you're wasting time.

You want to shoot me, shoot me.

Personally, I'd rather you do it than them.

bu xu dong (Stay right there. ).

Well, Terry, what part of

'never come back again'

didn't you understand?

You wanted to fight the Shay Ling.

The only way to get into their place

is as their prisoners.

You want to tell me that in jail before.

Would you have believed me?

Make Chen Lo a better

offer than his buyer.

He'll cross them.

Even if his buyer is Jonathan Reiss?

You might've told me that before!

Were you really going to kill me?

Oh, I bet she would have.

I've seen her in action.

Didn't Terry tell you?

The last time any of us saw him,

he was riding away with a truck...

...full of my Ming vases...

...and sitting next to him, was his sister.

Oh, how is she?

You...

...shouldn't come here.

They got me out of prison...

...Besides, the lady has a good offer...

...better than Reiss.

Really?

Should I take it?

Take it.

Or better yet,

you and I run some horrendous thing

back to the British for triple.

Let's talk.

Not you, Terry.

Lady Croft and I.

You wait here.

Catch up.

There will be four minute.

Terrific.

There's something I think

you will have appreciated.

This is the largest group of

terracotta warriors I have found.

The king of Qin made them...

...for use in the afterlife...

...to fend off enemies he made in this one.

Sounds like we could both use a set.

I would be happy to sell some to you.

I hope you're as

entrepreneurial with the Orb.

You lost men, I lost men.

I see no reason we should both lose again.

If I want double, would Reiss offer it to me?

Is it here?

It's worth a lot.

Well then, if you know that,

you'll know Reiss will also kill you

the moment you give it to him.

And your government would

guarantee my safety?

No.

But I will.

That must hurt, saying that to me.

Take the offer.

You presume to give me orders?

Take the offer before it expires.

No.

Then I would have to force you.

Then I would have to kill you.

Has it been four minutes yet?

That was nice.

It's too bad, you're on the wrong side.

Tell me where the orb is,

and it spares your life.

The Flower Pagoda in Shanghai, 9 PM.

This is mine.

Now, we're even.

Freeze. Put your hands up.

Remember that no gun

rule? I reconsidered.

Lara, there was a staircase

we could have used.

Lara, are you all right?

Smashing. I'm on my way to Shanghai.

And I need you to look at something for me.

It's in the Luna Temple near the orb.

And I'm betting it's key to those markings.

She's holding some sort

of musical instrument.

It's sound.

That's brilliant.

Key must have linked into it some way.

I'll start decoding the images we have.

Good.

- You give us the rest, bye, Lara.

Miss you.

- Bye.

[Shanghai].

Flower Pagoda, 8:50 pm.

Trouble is coming, let's go.

well.

Just like old times.

I think that's the first time you've

actually smiled because of me.

Why did you do it?

I started thinking.

I was...tired of doing things

for somebody else's way...

...and it was always going

to be somebody else's way.

So you abandoned your men and

betrayed your country.

Leaving my men and my country...

...that didn't actually

hurt as much as I thought.

But leaving you did.

You're a hard act to follow, Croft.

You know why you and I

get along so well?

No.

We are two of a kind, me and you.

We are nothing alike.

I don't think we're alike.

- Um hm.

But do you think we're a pair?

Opposite sides of the same coin.

My men have the roof covered.

Why don't you set down

at the square instead.

That way, my men would

also have things covered.

Okay, fine.

Okay, so, let's go.

We're arriving at the square.

We're in the wrong position.

Stairs? -No time.

Rooftops?

- No.

I've got a plan.

Stay here, wait for my signal.

Here's your money, come and get it.

Wait for my signal, pal.

Give me that box.

You give me the money first.

Get out of here.

Go, run her over.

Yeah.

- We tried it your way,

now we'll do it mine.

- Bring it to the top of the pagoda now!

Okay.

Come on, come on. Hold it up.

Now we're going to your brother.

We're too late.

Lara, what are you doing?

Take us up.

Move. Go.

Let's go, move.

I'm getting tired of you

pointing that thing at me.

Are you okay?

- Never better.

It looks like we've lost the orb.

Please! You don't think I'd go

vaulting in the thin air for nothing, do you?

I've put a tracer on the crate.

Got it.

Look.

Impressive.

[Hong Kong].

A weapons lab

in the middle of the city? No way.

He must have dumped that in the Cradle.

No, it's here.

One of the buildings?

No.

It's exactly where we're standing.

There's part of me that always

allowed for the possibility...

...that Pandora's Box was just a legend.

But now I know it's there.

She escaped.

She has no idea where we are.

We take no chances.

Have everything we need...

...to manufacture an antidote

transferred to the jet.

I need an orb for two people.

Mid-city, soon.

What? Are you crazy?

Who is that?

Piece of cake.

Wang Jie, come in.

Hello.

So much for easy.

What is that?

He's already decoding the orb.

Bugger!

Headset.

You've gotta get everyone out.

How would you suggest, the fire alarm?

Not bad. But that's just the alarm.

There's no danger.

Do you think anyone here

is paid enough to take that chance?

Don't even think about it.

It's her.

Yes.

I'm glad, Lara.

It would have been too easy.

Give me your best!

How's that?

I'm going offline.

Oh, don't...

Thanks.

You're welcome.

Hello boys, did you

understand the medallion?

Yeah, yeah, the markings are sound waves.

We've translating the

markings from your images...

...roughly half the orb.

Well let's complete the set, then.

I'll record the rest of the images

and send them to you.

Once you have them,

finish the translation...

...and transmit the sounds back to me.

We need more backup.

Smart girl.

Get down.

Move.

Don't shoot her.

Not until I make sure the

computer has done its job.

Do you honestly believe...

...you'll be able to

control what's in that box?

And turn that into one of your weapons?

Really, Lara. You disappoint me.

Have we received payment

from all the buyers?

You're the one who controls the orb.

You're using the buyers.

They'll release it thinking

it's just another weapon.

And the world blames them.

What's left of the world blames them.

Once I get hold of the buyers.

I'll make enough antidote...

...to protect the best and the brightest.

Heads of corporations.

Heads of states...

...life will go on.

Don't tell me you've looked

around never thought...
