Na komete

Long time ago, as a young officer, I witnessed

unusual events and many heroic acts.

They're seemed as they never happened today.

As it wasn't even true.

Only memories left, and few old photographs.

That happened also to one big catastrophe in cosmos.

Whole world was terrified.

Such a big event and only pile of pale postcards

and few disappointed illusions left...

On the Comet

It was a beautiful age.

The age of our youth.

Europe indulged itself in - except of

another worries - colonies.

Thanks to that we came

to this little known country.

We rode through all of it

with a gun in the hand.

We felt very well here.

We helped as much as we could

and spread civilization.

We were young, elegant, brave

and this always pays off.

Everyone here liked us.

And our popularity rose day by day.

It was a golden age.

Iron-plate dishes is a treasure of house.

Even you can't break it.

I'll be right there.

Please, choose as you wish.

Look.

Exact fifteen, madam.

I hope you'll visit my shop soon again.

Throw away the loam sherds and

buy proper iron-plate dishes.

Sir lieutenant has chosen, hasn't he?

He has chosen well.

One can't meet such girl here sadly.

Nice, isn't she?

Really nice.

Hold the stick tightly!

Come to life!

He has probably gone mad.

The african sun makes that.

Wat did I tell you,

straighten up the stick.

And stop with that.

What if it burns?

I would be also better with

beautiful girl on my side.

I would like such one.

Maybe she would like me too.

She would surely admired me.

Seizing colonies is not enough, miss.

They have to be mapped, measured...

Why do you think battles are led?

For land.

When I move one single line

I'll do for homeland more than

whole riding company.

Due to me, miss.

Oh.

Your appreciation is

a great honour to me.

Let me introduce,

lieutenant Servadac.

Sir lieutenant,

come to life!

Watch yourself!

Don't be affraid, miss.

I can't do my country out of

one single meter of colonial area.

Attention, sir!

Sir lieutenant!

So, this is the end.

Without fame, without medal.

It was irresponsible that they didn't

teach us to swim in the military school.

Good bye, miss,

I'm dying for my country.

Can I ask you where

did you swim from?

Me?

From Valencia.

The whole way to africa?

We are in Africa?

You really don't know you're in Africa?

I was kidnapped and closed on ship.

I didn't know where are we sailing.

And what did they want to do with me.

Although they still guarded me,

I had decided I would run away.

The ship harboured this morning and

I heard the voice of my kidnapper.

He is also from Valencia.

But he is a bad man.

He shot at my brothers,

when they defended me.

I take the whole cargo.

Deal, efendi.

Tell me a king.

I will be it tomorrow.

You will be, king.

My stuff will secure it for you.

You'll be satisfied,

it's a good stuff.

It's heavy like thunder.

What are you doing, man?

Where do you have a crate, rascals?

Pack it up, hurry.

Don't piss me, rascals.

Or you will know, what

really your captain is.

You'll be laughing at me?

Move guys,

this is not a trip.

Move, you're in the way.

How much do you want for the guns?

How much will you give?

About 300.

I guarantee for the guns.

They will make you a ruler of this land.

I will make a ruler myself.

It's none of your bussiness.

You'll give me some more.

Come, I'll show you something.

The b*tch! She has run away.

I don't care.

Patience, king.

You'll see in the moment.

I'll only arrange something.

Please, come with me.

Boat on water, quickly guys.

And when I founded you,

the second sun on sky rose.

I've thought I'm imagining

when I saw it.

But I doubt the second one is sun.

It hasn't got its own light,

it is probably some unknown planet.

Rushes to us with huge velocity.

Let's come away before

something happens to us.

This is more precious for you

than thousand more rifles.

I'm coming as a consul.

Ethiquette demands a gift.

Next to them there must be

an honor party and this is all they have.

Look.

Simple but reliable.

It only can't be reversed.

When candle burns out to here...

...it fires on linstock...

Do you understand?

Everyone will be wiped away.

And you as soon as you hear a blowup,

attack the city with your riders.

Look at the sky, king.

Evil star.

Sky is ready for something.

Back to paddles.

Careful, rascals!

Don't mind the sky and pull on.

Wouldn't we wait for better weather?

I have to be a king since the sunrise.

I sweared so.

Let your steps be happy, king.

Do you think that uprise

will be succesfull, excellency?

Our weapons will help them.

The fort will be taken by them

and after that we'll come.

We won't get angry anyone

and push through our interests.

And all you see, captain

the whole this beautiful country

will fall to the spanish crown

under rule of his majesty.

This is my holy mission.

A ship, sir.

It's a spanish ship, sir.

His excellency is arriving, sir.

Consul.

Shall we fire for greeting?

Sir, I report, lieutenant Servadac

fell from the rock during filling his duties.

That's all sir, after that

he was falling with head down.

We have to admit the worst then.

And did you risk

your life for your officer?

I didn't, sir.

Go back, immediately.

Give him some soldiers

to retrieve his mistake.

Shall we fire for greetings, sir?

Yes, but only once, we will need bullets

for much more important things.

It seems they fired.

We are waiting for the command, sir.

Fire from all cannons

so they can see we are a superpower.

Are you alright?

Have we collide yet?

No, it was a grenade.

Our grenade, the sixteen.

Don't be affraid.

That was not ours.

Look what compass is doing, sir.

Magnetic errors?

There has been no one here before.

They probably suspects

coming catastrophe.

What will happen to us?

We will surely die.

Prepare yourselves.

Our time is near.

What does that mean?

A storm, sir.

That's your resposibility, captain.

Yes, sir.

We won't find lieutenant here.

Do you want to look

for him in such weather?

We'll better wait here.

The judgement day is here.

Where will you put it?

In front of the squad.

Near to you?

As much far from me as it goes.

Weather is terrible, isn't it?

I don't mind the weather.

Colonel, this is a souvenir

from my country.

Down!

Let's go!

Oh my god.

Our Earth.

It's unbelievable,

but it's Earth.

Aren't we on Earth anymore?

Planet has taken us

with itself without a collision.

On the planet.

We're going far from Earth.

That's good.

At least the evil people won't find me.

Look, sir, it really is Earth,

I see Europe and Africa.

Yes Lacoste, I see it too.

But what about us, where are we?

What are we standing on?

How could we tear away from Earth?

I'm curious what will

write Le monde about it next week.

Don't you have a knife

to cut off a cigar?

Let's go gentlemen.

Oh my god, lieutenant.

Sir.

Ben! Why didn't jump for me?

I've got a command to retrieve my mistake.
