Pokot: The Sacred Path to Warrior-Hood Page #5

Ms. Duszejko, right?

She adores you.

She's a very gifted girl.

Didn't you find the police chief's body?

Weren't you scared?

- Of course.

They were all his friends.

They hunted together,

then drank to the game count.

Game count.

They always count the prey afterwards.

He brings home a quarter deer

and dumps it on the table.

When I walk past the fridge

I know there's a quartered body inside.

I know I'm neurotic

and I need medical treatment.

Not at all.

I remember a story from when I was a child,

about the Night Hunter.

Do you know it?

It's a local legend,

dates back to the German times.

The Night Hunter flew on a black stork

accompanied by dogs.

He hunted evil people.

Everyone was terrified

and locked themselves inside.

And there was a local boy

who as a joke shouted up the chimney

for the Night Hunter

to catch something for him.

After a while a quarter human body

fell down the chimney.

Then another quarter, and another.

Altogether four pieces.

They put them together

and buried the body.

The Night Hunter never showed up again.

And his dogs turned into moss.

They turned into moss?

Go home.

I'll keep an eye on your husband

and give him a ride back home.

Take a hot bath, get some rest.

You're a nervous wreck.

Good morning!

- Morning.

Here's a summons. You need to testify.

I'll drop by later this week.

No, you have to come with us now.

What do you mean, now?

You may be the last person

to have seen our mayor alive.

I have a warrant for your arrest.

- Wolski?

But I couldn't find him after the party.

All right.

I'll go grab my toothbrush.

Most people were already leaving.

I went inside to check on him.

I assumed he'd passed out.

I checked the restrooms,

looked and asked around,

but no one knew where he was.

Who did you talk to?

- I don't remember.

Everyone was tipsy.

Some people were still wearing masks.

I assumed someone else

must have taken him back home.

I found my Samurai and we left, too.

Who's Samurai?

A good friend.

His last name, please.

Samurai Suzuki.

Ms. Duszenko...

- Duszejko.

Duszejko.

What's a Cucujus haematodes?

Excuse me?

Oh right. It's a beetle.

How do you know?

From that entomo...

That insect guy?

He's got nothing to do with it.

I know a lot from horoscopes.

Wolski had negative aspects

in his third house.

Which includes small animals and insects.

Let me explain.

Humans are just sparks,

not from this world.

When a creature is to be born,

that spark begins to fall.

Ms. Duszejko, really...

As it falls, each planet it passes

contaminates it with qualities.

First Pluto...

This is irrelevant...

As it falls, it crosses...

Ms. Duszejko...

Obviously you're an expert, but...

Yes, I've studied astrology for years.

That's enough. Thank you.

What's your birth date?

July.

And the day?

- Twenty-first.

What time?

- Eight o'clock.

What minute?

- I don't know.

Did you see that roe deer,

roe deer running down the hill?

Let your greyhounds off the lead

to chase the roe deer at full speed

to get it in the end.

Did you see that badger,

badger trotting through the grass?

Let your greyhounds off the lead

to chase the badger at full speed

to get it in the end.

Bankers pump it into their secret accounts,

the secret weapon.

From my blood the secret weapon is made

so it can be incarnated even better,

even more beautifully, without pain.

From my blood guzzled by priests

on podiums and in discreet negotiations.

My blood, and your blood too!

Even better!

Ms. Duszejko!

The performance will start after mass.

I play a badger.

What's the play about?

- St. Hubert.

He meets a stag in the forest.

And gets converted.

Brothers and sisters.

We've gathered here today

on this special occasion.

The naming of our school after St. Hubert,

the first known ecologist.

Although the word ecology

didn't exist back then.

Inspired by God,

St. Hubert made it his mission

to protect nature.

What would become of nature

without man's wisdom?

It would be chaos.

It's no accident that on this special day

we're joined here by our hunters.

They are your older brothers, children.

Hunters are God's ambassadors

to His Creation.

Cull hunting helps to maintain

the balance of nature.

They also care for animals,

feed them, build feed racks for deer...

And they shoot them at those racks too!

The Lord spoke to us humans...

Get down from there! C'mon!

Get off that pulpit right now and get out!

Ms. Duszejko.

- Please calm down!

What are you staring at?

Are you all fast asleep?

How can you listen to this bullshit?

Have you lost your minds?

Let go of me! Murderers!

Brothers and sisters!

Please don't let this ruin our special day.

It's to us humans that the Lord said,

"Subdue the earth."

"Subdue the earth..."

Please, don't do this to me now.

We've been best buddies for years.

You may be old,

but you've still got it in you!

Come on! Please!

Hello? It's me Duszejko!

Near the police chief, I found

a package addressed to Wnetrzak.

It looked like it was money.

Is it much farther?

Over there, in that cave.

Why so freaking far?

Didn't want the cops to find it.

- Where?

Over there.

Get away! Quick!

Run!

The bugs on Wolski's body...

Bugs?

He was killed by insects.

His body was covered with forest beetles.

You never met Boros.

He spoke of scents

called pheromones that attract insects.

He had them with him.

She was always around too.

And all the victims were hunters.

I just can't believe it...

Hello?

The church is on fire. The priest is dead.

Call Matoga.

Are you there?

Janina!

Don't call me Janina.

Even

One more photo over here!

It's too dark over there.

Okay, the light is good.

God bless him!

- Everyone smile!

Cheers!

Applause for the mayor!

Cheers!

That's what happened?

I found it at Big Foot's.

After his death.

He was outside making a call.

What about Wolski?

How did that happen?

I feel sick, Ms. Duszejko.

You shouldn't drink so much.

It's bad for you and you hurt your family.

True...

Get me out of here.

Help me, please.

I'll get you out of here.

You shot my dogs, didn't you?

Yes.

But...

I didn't know they were yours.

I'll get you two more.

Why are you crying?

Over me...

Here, drink this.

What is it?

Pheromones. It'll soothe you.

I'll take you home now.

Home? What home?

All right.

Let's go!

What do we do?

Take Dyzio's car and drive

over the mountains to Wolf Crossing.

We'll meet there.

Cover her with a blanket, just in case.

What are you doing?

Don't worry. We won't abandon you.

It's not you who started this war.

Oh f***!

They're behind us?

No.

You two alive?

- Yes. Keep driving.

00 to 19, over!

Try to call.

- There's no service.

Now watch this.

I grew up in a time when people

wanted to change the world

with their revolutionary vision.

Now we only see the status quo

and think it will last forever.

But things will change again.

They always have.
