The Ruins Page #2

---

to some tourist trap, honey.

Don't you wanna have some experience

or something to shoot,

other than just the beach, the pool,

the beach, the pool?

Well, you're already dressed.

You might as well just go without me.

Hey.

But I don't wanna go without you.

- Okay, let's go.

- Yeah?

- Okay, let's go.

- Okay.

Ready?

What are you so happy about?

Watch out for that.

I'm sorry.

Wow.

- Amy, there's a puppy!

- Heinrich?

Hello?

- What?

- I don't know.

So, now what?

We take taxi.

- How far?

- 18 kilometers.

Hey, how many miles is that?

It's about 11. Maybe a little bit more.

Then there's a path,

which we hike for 4 kilometers.

Okay, no one said anything

about a hike.

Amy!

- Stacy!

- Come here!

Well, I don't see any cabs.

That's a bit of a problem.

What?

- Yeah.

- I don't know what you're saying.

There we go.

Why?

No, it's good. Is there a mirror?

How much, you drive us here?

No, no. This place, no good.

I'll drive you to pyramid.

Muy grande. Everybody go.

I take you. I take you.

Yes.

- Hey! Amy, Stace!

- Bye, puppy!

I wanna stay with the puppy.

- Let's go!

- You guys ready?

- We got new hats.

- Very nice.

- This is the taxi?

- Yeah, this is it. Come on. Let's go.

My pants are gonna get dirty.

Hey, Jeff. Can you give me some water?

Take a picture.

- Is this it?

- Yeah, this must be.

How you feeling?

- Yeah.

- Okay.

Oh, my God, I'm so glad that's over.

You okay?

- My jeans are all dirty.

- Do you have a telfono?

Thanks.

Bye, puppy!

Wait, how are we gonna get back?

We're gonna call him when we get out.

With what?

We're not gonna get a signal out here.

My phone should work.

It's a world phone.

Hello? Can you hear me now?

It's not funny, Eric.

It's like a 20-mile hike

I'm gonna do in flip-flops.

Eleven.

It's a little funny.

Yeah, it's working.

- Problem solved.

- Can I have my sunglasses?

Is that your brother's Jeep?

Yeah, it is.

It's not funny.

It's a little funny.

We go. Coming?

Yeah, yeah. Come on, let's go. Ready?

- Yeah.

- Come on.

Want a piggyback ride?

- No.

- No?

So, there was this girl who got really,

really drunk one night.

But she sobered up really,

really quickly.

Who is this?

Just the stupid game

that they were playing last night.

But not before she stuck

her tongue down some guy's throat.

Eric.

How much further is it?

We cross a stream, then there

should be a path to the left.

If we seen a village,

then we've gone too far.

Wait, there's a village?

Yeah. A Mayan village.

Why did we leave the hotel again?

Whoa!

- Are you okay?

- Yeah.

Just almost fell.

- F***ing stinks.

- Whoa.

You stink.

How much further

past the stream is it?

You're funny.

Right after, it says.

Yeah, well, I don't see any path.

Can I have some... Thanks.

My legs are sore.

Look!

Don't scare them.

I'm not gonna scare them. Hello!

They look sad.

Hello?

- You guys wanna go talk to them?

- Yeah.

Maybe they can guide us.

I don't think they speak Spanish.

Look.

Where's he going?

It's here. This must be it.

That's the path?

Why was it covered?

I don't think that's the right path.

- It's on the map?

- Yeah.

It's on the map.

Jeff, do you see how old

that map looks?

And it was covered.

Why would it be covered?

Maybe the archaeologists don't want

people to find their site, guys.

Great. They're gonna be thrilled

to see us then.

No, maybe they just found something

valuable, you know,

and they don't want people to rob it,

and just get the Mayans

to keep people away.

- How far away is it?

- It's not far.

- Just feels weird.

- Well, what do you wanna do?

Just turn around

and walk all the way back?

A hidden path

in the middle of the jungle.

So, do you think

those kids were Mayans?

I mean, aren't the Mayans extinct?

Didn't they die

of some f***ed up disease?

That's great, Eric.

We could be walking through

an ancient graveyard right now.

Like a bone depository or something.

- I doubt it.

- Yeah, I doubt it.

Did you just mimic me?

No, no, I was agreeing with you.

He was totally mimicking you.

Was I? Was I really?

Wow.

Oh, wow.

- Finally!

- I think this is it.

See, honey?

Wow.

- It's beautiful.

- It is.

- Can I have my glasses?

- Yeah.

- Aren't you glad you came?

- Here.

Look, that's it.

Well, we made it.

Can I have a drink? Thank you.

Hey, Stace.

Mexico!

I know I'm a dork.

Mathias?

Is that a tent?

Where?

Up there in the corner.

Good job!

Heinrich!

Maybe he wants some money.

What, like a toll or something?

Amy. Stop.

What the f*** do they want?

Show a picture of your brother.

On the phone.

Wait.

- We're trying to find...

- You seen him?

- Ame, don't move!

- Stop!

- Amy! Amy!

- Okay.

Don't move. Just don't move.

- Give to them! Give to them fotografa!

- Jeff!

- Give to me camera.

- Ame, don't move!

Hey!

- What the hell was that?

- Dimitri.

Want the camera?

Easy. Easy, just...

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

Stop!

- Amy! Amy!

- Oh, God!

Jeff!

Heinrich!

I need to stop.

- I can't breathe. I can't breathe.

- Stace. Stace. Look at me.

- I can't breathe.

- Stacy! Look at me!

Come on, we gotta go! Come on!

There's more coming!

Heinrich!

Oh, my God. Oh, God. Oh, God.

Oh, my God, Dimitri!

Oh, my God.

Why would they do that?

I can't breathe.

Eric, get your phone out.

There's no signal.

Really? Because if there was a signal

on the road you should be able to...

- No, I didn't get one.

- What do you mean?

- No, I mean, I never said...

- "Can you hear me now?"

- What the f*** was that, Eric?

- What the f***? It was a joke!

Stop! Stop! Both of you, stop! Please!

Mathias had a signal.

Where's your phone?

The man. He took it.

Is it the dig?

Heinrich?

Maybe there's another way down.

Heinrich?

My God...

Heinrich!

Oh, sh*t.

Oh, Jesus.

I'm sorry.

They keep coming.

They're setting up camps.

Why are they doing this?

Jesus Christ, they killed them both.

I mean what about the girl.

What happened to her?

- The one that Heinrich...

- Just stop it, Eric.

I mean, is she okay? Is she even here?

What happened?

Just stop it okay. Stop talking.

- Give the water, Amy.

- What happened?

It's the plant.

He's having some sort of

allergic reaction to it.

Why are they doing this?

Maybe they're preparing for something.

Like a sacrifice.

It has something to do with the ruins.

They won't come up here.

Now that we're here,

they won't let us leave.

So, what do we do,

just wait for someone to find us?

Who?

The Greeks.

Dimitri left them a copy of the map

before we left.

Yeah, and what if they decide

not to come, Jeff?

Then somebody else will.

We're supposed to check out

of the hotel tomorrow.

The hotel's gonna call the police.

When?

Tomorrow or the day after.

- Our flight is tomorrow, Jeff.

- I know, Amy.

But we know what happens if we leave.

Yeah, but what are we gonna eat?

Like, where do we sleep?

We should save this.

Hey, she's thirsty.

I know. We just don't have that much.
