More Dead Than Alive Page #6

How many times

do I gotta tell you, kid?

People want to see a killer.

They pay to see Cain

because he's a killer.

Now you...

you ain't nothin'.

Just a little pissant.

So that's what I gotta be, huh?

A killer!

All right, Rufe, I'll be a killer.

If that's what I gotta be, I'll be one.

Killer.

Oh, God...

I am a killer, Rufe.

Ruffalo?

I come for my money.

All that yours?

Yeah, it sure is.

That's a lot of money

for a kid like you.

I could sure use it.

You know, I don't think

that you know who I am.

Nope.

Billy Valen.

I'm Little Boy Blue.

I like that! I really do.

I really like that.

You're a very funny man.

Now, Mr. Funnyman...

Have you heard of, uh...

...Dan Ruffalo's Shooting Show?

I...

...just happen to be the star.

That's right, I'm the star.

Now you say

that you can use that, huh?

Is that right?

There it is.

Now, if you think

that you can take it, why...

...take it.

Have you ever seen anything that fast?

Didn't anyone ever tell you, boy?

Never holster an empty gun.

You're not... you're not

gonna shoot me, are you?

You bet your ass I'm gonna.

I... I don't wanna die, mister...

He-help me! Help me...

Now laugh.

Go on, laugh.

Like you did in the mine, uh?

Everything around here

looks real nice.

Your husband's done a great job.

Thank you, Mr. Grayley.

We're very happy.

I'm sure you are.

You know, folks up north

sort of consider him as a hero

for bringing in Luke Santee

like he did.

It's ironic, isn't it?

Well, looks like you have company.

I'll be going.

Thank you for dropping by.

- Bye now.

- Bye.

Is your husband around, ma'am?

Why, yes, he's in the back.

Here he comes now.

Hi, there.

What can I do for you?

It's what I can do for you.

I've been looking for you

for quite some time.

Why?!

- Why, why?!

- Why?

All right, I'll tell you why.

Because 20 years ago,

Cain killed my father.

He served 18 years in prison.

No, that was the price of one life.

Cain took 12.

Oh, no!
