Vs Page #4

---

Yes, I am.

Every day I look

in the mirror,

all this changes.

You still look

exactly the same

as when that thing

fell out of the sky.

It gave you and

everyone else powers,

but nothing happened to me.

I always wanted it to,

it just...

It didn't.

And that's what Rickshaw

doesn't understand.

The injection didn't

work on me because

I don't have anything

to take away.

Why didn't you ever

tell me any of this?

It doesn't matter.

Look at me!

It doesn't matter.

It does matter.

It matters because...

What happens

five years from now?

When my body can't take

this beating anymore,

and I can't protect you.

What happens when I'm 70

and you still look 17?

John...

Wow!

What a round, huh?

Whoo!

Well, the good news is that

the finals are coming up.

Same story,

five minutes.

Report to the thrift store.

Thrills. Chills.

The f***ing works!

Oh...

And don't forget

to bring your guns.

You okay?

Yeah.

Good.

Let's finish this, huh?

Yeah.

Let's do it.

So exciting!

The finals begin.

the entire store is loaded

to hell with explosives.

Fail this round, and...

F***, kaboom!

It's all over.

Now, since you are both armed,

it will make this round

quick and painless.

If one of you isn't dead,

and I don't care which,

then the whole

f***ing store explodes.

Try to leave the store, and...

F***ing kaboom!

Now, look, I know

this is a poignant,

touching moment for you both,

And as always, you know,

I don't really mean it,

good luck!

I can't.

Yes, you can.

Hey.

John, if we try to escape,

he'll blow the whole store.

We're not gonna escape.

You are.

What?

If you shoot me

somewhere convincing...

I'm gonna pretend to die.

And then you're going

to run out of here.

No. No, no, no.

And when his eye

is transfixed on you,

I'm gonna triangulate

his position,

and then

I'm gonna kill him.

Is this it?

Is this your plan?

I mean, what's your

backup plan, John?

Back up plans

are for people

who expect to fail.

Hey, this is gonna work.

Are you

out of your mind?

I mean,

I'm not killing you.

You won't if you

do it right.

If we don't

at least try,

he wins.

Without us, who knows

what Rickshaw will do?

This isn't just about

you and me anymore,

this is about

everything and everyone

we've ever cared about.

I have to fix this.

I can't.

Here.

Just aim a little right.

No, my right.

Don't shoot me

in the heart.

What if this

doesn't work?

It will, okay?

It will, okay?

Trust me, babe.

Okay?

It's gonna be okay.

It's gonna be okay.

All right?

It's gonna be okay.

No! No!

No.

No, no, no, no.

It's gonna be okay,

all right?

Just run.

Get out of here.

You're not okay.

I'm fine. I'm fine.

Just run.

Just run.

Just run.

Please, you can

do this, okay? Listen.

You can do this.

You can do this!

You're sure

we should do this?

Can't just ignore

what we all have.

Well, yeah, I mean,

people are good at sh*t

all the time.

It doesn't mean

they go get in

everybody's business

If someone's getting hurt

right in front of you,

do you just walk away?

No.

That's all I'm saying

we do here.

Cool. Sounds fun.

Yeah, I mean,

why not?

Guys, this isn't just

stopping people

from getting hurt.

This is going to be

dangerous as sh*t,

and if we make a dent,

someone's gonna get

f***ing pissed about it.

That's why we all

should just be careful.

I'd never let anything

happen to any of you guys.

If it gets too crazy,

we just walk away,

you know?

That's it.

Okay.

Yeah?

Yeah.

All right. Let's do it.

You?

Me.

I've tried, Charge.

But your little town

just expired.

What did you just do?

What did you do?

Boom!

How do I deactivate it?

How do I deactivate it?

God damn it!

Jill.

Hey, Jill, it's me.

Okay, listen, babe.

You've got...

Five and a half minutes

to get the hell

out of here, okay?

This whole town's

gonna blow.

But don't worry.

I got Rickshaw.

You just gotta get

your ass moving, okay?

Where are you, John?

Honey, I can't hear you,

but you gotta

get moving, okay?

You're wasting time.

I don't know how large

the bomb radius is.

Good.

Go.

No. No, Jill.

What are you doing?

No. No, no, .

No, Jill, do.

Jill, stop!

Don't come after me.

You have to

get out of here now,

you hear me?

Don't come after me!

You hear me?

Get out of here!

See you soon, a**hole.

Hey.

Hey. You okay?

Jill, I told you

not to come.

Look at me, I'm...

I'm done.

You know,

if you see someone

getting hurt

in front of you,

do you just walk away?

Carrying me out of here

is going to be like trying

to escape in a wheelchair.

You only got, like,

two minutes left.

Please just...

Well, then

we better hurry up.

You're not the only one

who gets to save

people around here.

Come on.

Okay.
