The Medallion Page #3

Thats what I mean.

Can one of you explain

this latest failure?

Why you couldnt

retrieve one small boy?

Sir...

...this might sound crazy...

...but I emptied a whole clip into that

Chinese cop and he still wouldnt die.

What Chinese cop?

Thats Eddie Yang.

Hes supposed to have died yesterday,

drowned in that container.

Then its true.

Professor. Doctor. Doctor.

Professor. Doctor. Doctor.

Thank you for being here.

Weve come across something

very interesting.

Have you ever seen this before?

- Doesn't ring a bell. Doctor?

- I've seen that before.

- The fish is the sign of life.

- That's interesting.

- And the snake is the sign of...

- Whoa.

The medallion.

You're gonna love this.

Now, it should have a serpent

on one side.

And a fish on the other.

If what you have is real, that is

the Holy Grail of Eastern mythology.

And maybe the secret to eternal life.

Sweet!

- Where'd you get the medallion?

- I recognize the fish.

- You got it from a kid, didn't you?

- Yes.

The legend says

every thousand years...

...a child is chosen that can bind the

halves together...

...and restore life to the dead.

You get that kid and the medallion...

...you're a god.

- That's nonsense.

- So where's the other half?

- Wait!

The ancient texts say that if you want

superhuman strength...

...and immortality,

you need both halves.

The only documented case

of a genuine resurrection...

You can't weigh it,

measure it, smoke it.

Look, ancient texts aren't fairy tales.

Thank you, professor. Doctor. Doctor.

- Cheerio, for now.

- Good luck.

Why would a young boy

have something like this?

This Snakehead chap, is he

after the medallion or the boy?

By the way,

take good care of that kid.

The medallion can not only give life,

it can take it away.

Okay, Ill cover the front door,

call in for backup.

You go to the rear to Nicoles

apartment as fast as you can.

Got it.

Sorry.

You know, for a little person,

you sure do eat a lot.

Still going?

What did you have?

Okay.

Here we go.

Try that.

That good?

You dont like... Youre not...

One of my culinary skills...

...other than peeling fruit, of course...

...just so happens to be a toasted...

...peanut butter and jelly sandwich...

...which, I might add, Eddie could eat

for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Then again, he didnt really

have any choice.

- Why?

- Because I cant cook anything else.

I just cant believe

that hes really gone.

Hes not gone.

Jai...

...do you not understand that Eddies

not coming back?

I pulled him back.

Okay...

Jai, Eddies...

He...

Just hold on.

See?

Oh, my God.

Eddie?

Eddie.

Jai!

No!

Eddie!

You see? I told you he wasnt dead.

The boy, sir.

Yes.

Welcome...

...my old friend.

So...

...a quick, painless death...

...followed by resurrection...

...immortality...

...and powers beyond your dreams.

Are you sure?

His order is ruled

by reverence for life.

My death before him

must be reversed.

And if it isnt...

...kill him.

And then who would bring you back,

Chosen One?

Pitiful mortal.

So...

...I have no further use

for you, Chosen One.

Youre not immortal.

What?

To become immortal, you need

both halves of the medallion.

Wheres the other half?

Tell me!

- Nicole.

- Eddie.

Its me. Im fine, really.

I just...

I still dont understand, Eddie,

because I was there...

...and I saw you, and...

- Nicole, its me.

You see, its just that I was at the

container and you were dead.

I mean, you were dead.

Nicole, the boy uses the medallion

to give life.

Thats why Snakehead took him.

With the boy and the medallion,

he could...

He could become like you?

Yes, but he needs

the whole medallion...

...and he only has half.

Look...

...this is a touching reunion.

Were all glad that Eddies

amongst the living...

...but we still havent found

Snakeheads helicopter.

Get online. Find anything

that was in the air in the last hour.

I dont care if it was a bird, a plane

or bloody Superman.

No offense, old chap.

Eddie.

If he needs the other half, hes

gonna come looking for you.

If he is looking for me...

...hell be looking for my partner.

Me?

My family.

My family.

Cool.

See, thats not normal. I mean,

thats not natural. What...?

Eddie, take my bike!

Thank God.

Theyre all right.

Charlotte?

Charlotte? I have something

I have to tell you.

Yes, dear?

Eddie...

Watson! Theyre here!

Go!

Go!

Charlotte, where are you going?

This is no time for cleaning.

Take your shield!

Watson!

- Are you all right, love?

- Yes, Im fine, dear.

Catch!

Here. L"II lead them away.

Your wife?

What the...?

There you are. Quick. Quick.

Thats a good boy.

Now, listen. Guns are very dangerous

things, all right? Right.

How dare you shoot...

...at my...

...wife!

My Lord.

Whered he go?

We meet again...

...Eddie Yang.

Wheres the boy?

My guest is no concern of yours.

All that matters is that you have the

other half of the medallion.

Dont run, Eddie!

You cant hide from me!

The medallion is mine!

You think its a game?

Well, lets play!

Were the same, you and I.

What a pity. What a waste.

You dont know

what powers you have.

Destiny calls.

Hes sleeping. At least, I think thats

what hes doing.

He doesnt even look like hes

breathing.

The boy!

Oh, God, I wish

you wouldnt do that.

Eddie, youre all right.

The boys in danger.

Hes going to kill him. Right?!

Snakehead has taken the boy

to Ravens Keep.

I told you everything I know.

I did.

We need to move fast.

Of course I can fly this thing.

I built it myself.

You take the bike.

L"II guide you from the air.

Im driving.

Thats Ravens Keep.

Its five miles away.

You should wash your hands.

Come on.

Nicole.

Be careful.

You too.

- What the hell are you doing here?

- Wheres the boy?

- Lets get out of here!

- Move!

You cowards!

Watson. Watson!

Are you crazy?

Be careful.

Interpol. Freeze.

Jai, are you all right?

There she is! Get her!

Excuse me.

You looking for something?

Interpol! Freeze!

Interpol! Freeze!

Interpol! Free...

Jai, thank God.

Youre in danger.

Its over.

Youre safe now.

I dont think so.

No, its all right.

Run!

For your lives.

Its not nice to take things

that dont belong to you.

Fetch.

My brother...

...dont be sentimental.

Its so unnecessary.

Its so human.

So normal.

You and I will live forever.

We are the lords of time.

We can take whatever we choose.

I mean, what difference can a single

human life like hers make to us?

We are immortal.

Let me show you.

Eddie, use the medallion

to end the life that it gave.

Can you?

Its your turn.

Whats that for?

That, Eddie Yang,

is for not catching me.

And that, Eddie Yang, is for not

catching me.

Interpol! Freeze!

Isnt that lovely?

Of course...

...when he came back, he was naked.

I mean, completely starkers.

Not a stitch.

Im not complaining, mind you.

Listen, I have this cough.

I think its quite serious.

Honestly, I could snuff at any point.

I dont suppose youd consider
