There Be Dragons Page #3

for your suffering ,Manolo

suffering has a meaning

it's meaningless

if you can show me otherwise

I'll kiss your ass that's my promise

I know what it is to

be angry at life

please be careful where

that leads you to ,Manolo

sheep

around that time that Josemaria

got a call from god

I also got a call from on of old

friend of my fathers

huh Toress

good morning

well ?

- a spy ?

- yes ,you ?

but I expected somthing more

with the king gone ,Spain has lost

center of gravity

which we will now recreate

by force if it needs to be

and other means

- but our government is elected it's popular

- it's time is over

The Government is a rotten apple, just

shake it and maggots appear.

maggots ?

socialists who want

a socialist state,

stalinists who want

a Stalinist state,

anarchists who want no state at all

- Manolo we want to create a new Spain

- a united Spain

- plans with blood ,if it's necessary...

- resurrected...great

- and it want's war as before

- and admire

Exactly, that's right!

Are we clear!

they called us fascists

we called them communists

really ,the war was much

complicated than that

but many prefer to see it in

those simpelified terms(manner)

three years later ,half a milion people

were dead

most of them civilians

but even in times like these,

some people are more interested

in hads and shoes

I thought you were going to buy

a new shoes

yes..I was but somthing else came up

what was that ?

- no I met a lady who...

- who needed a hat

- and some breakfast

- yes ,and some lunch

thank you

sit down please Peter ,Isidore

so ?

This group that moves

you from your homes ,what's it called?

we don't have a name mama

we just refer it as "Gods work"

in Latin would sound better

Opus Dei.

I know your donkey may like funds

but the work has found it's name

what's next ?

the communist's strike killed my father

now it was my turn to strike

get him out of the cat

Unionist rabble ...

take him

Let us show you

how God loke like

where is your gun ?

this is not a game

he killed your father

damn it ,this bastard is

shitthing his pants

do it

do it damn it

Pedro

- you're crazy

- no I'm not

you are crazy

- he will hate the whole idea

- well let's ask him

- ask me ?

-this

we gonna put it up all over Madrid

not me father ,not me

- a crusade

- yes father

using the cross to incite hate and anger

that's christian ?

well mabe not

but father the government is opening

the attack of the church

- no it isn't it's trying to modernize the Spain

- come on ,Pedro

if we dont do somthin we are just cowards

or worse ,traitors

- traitors ?

- yes that's what people are saying

standing by while the church

get's attack

how is that being a good catholic ?

Pedro, is it understandable to want

to protect the church ?

yes father

- juan, is it uderstandable to want social justice ?

- yes of course

good ,so ,the question is how

do we achieve both

by feeding the hungry

and lunch is ready

so we just let it go

no ,look I'm not gonna tell you what to think

God gave each of you a brain and reasons

and conscience

why ? so that you can come to

conclusions on your own

and take personal responsible for them

but...before rushing to act

before trying to change the world

first think about changing yourselves

we're building somthing vital here

to get...

now ,specially now

we have to be sowers of peac and joy

and lunch mama

father...

they started killing priests

- what ?

- it's on the newspaper

oh my God

let me see

- so what do we do now father

- exactly what I just said ,Juan

please

bless us ,O Lord

and this thy gifts that we are about to recive

for Thy bounty,

through Christ our Lord.

What we have here?

- Hello, Father!

- Sorry!

or I stick you with this

- just kill the parasite!

- I'm not a parasite.

- I have work for living just like all you

- what for living ??

that's enough ,that's enough

please

- get on the next on

- Take it easy ...!

- I'm on your side.

- Fascist!

They have prejudices

against the enemies of their class.

- that's why I blame them

- no ,I know

all part of creating of this new

more civilized Spain

exactly

And how the uncivilized

bihavior comes out

To make omelets,

have to break eggs.

Life is not an omelet,

and people are not eggs.

if I was you

I stopped to walk out there

with those clothes.

it won't protect you anymore

I don't wear these for protection

you got bolls for a bourgeois

thank you father

from the palaces the bishops said :

"The meek shall inherit the earth"

But the meek

were tired of waiting

they took the bishops and their palaces

he was lucky it was only a rock

Juan? Paco?

happy birthday

it's not my birthday

come on

Josemaria ,as your brother

I've been chosen to ask you to celebrate

our second year together

by revoming your shoes

behold a simple shoe

- but is it what it seems ?

- yes

no

it is in fact...

...a hole

A hole masquerading as a shoe.

A hole surrounded by leather ...

But also a testiment

to 20 kms a day

seven days a week

rain and shine

and in pity for this innocent shoe

we have also pulled together for...

down

Santiago!

this is a statement of your government.

There has been a military up rising

The army recruits from the Moroccan colonial forces.

All able spainian

who love their country ...

it's remarkably easy

to join a war.

I could sneak to

a communist brigade.

so far I was enjoying being a spy

There is something inspiring

a common purpose,

even when it is not yours.

I can not describe the ecstasy

of belonging to a crowd,

even when it's the enemy

There is no feeling like it.

well...

apart from one

cat got your tongue ,brother ?

So many young people!

What do you know

about the suffering and death?

how they would told you

"is it worth it ?"

they will ask again and again

"is it wort it ?"

and what will fill your heart

with the answer "yes" ,yes

hater of oppression ? of tyranny ?

hate of those who treat us like animals

denying our hops and stifling our lives

YES !

but more

it will be faith

faith

faith ,that our new world will be born from

the blood of the old

and comradeship

my brothers and sisters

And courage.

courage can break our cases and

set ourselves free

to live noble as the eagle hovering of it's

mountain beak...

...or die in the attempt!

- name and country ?

- Jean. Frace

- name and country ?

- Petofi, Ildiko. Hungary, sir.

some like me escaped from prison

but still fighting to be free

as we all used to be
