Wolves Page #5

You better leave my wife alone

I'll be glad when you're dead

You rascal, you

- Yeah...

- Clara! Angel!

- Maybe someone noticed something

back in town.

Maybe they'll send somebody for help.

- When they grabbed me,

I didn't see a single person left.

It's like all the normal ones left town.

Like they knew.

- She's right. They knew.

- John Tollerman.

Ladies.

Can't thank you enough

for coming to my big night.

- Well, it seems like

we couldn't stay away.

- Yeah.

Tell me something, John.

Where's the kid?

- The kid's dead.

We buried him where he fell.

- I guess lies come easy

after 20 years of them, right?

- It's no lie.

He was your son and you killed him.

- Bullshit, John.

If he were my son, that would mean

you'd hidden Lucinda away from me

and lied to me for more than 20 years.

And you'd have to know

how you'd suffer for that.

- You think I'm afraid of dying?

- It's not the dying, John,

it's what comes first.

Uh-oh!

Oh, sh*t, it's the big moment.

Oh, yeah!

Can you believe I'm a little bit nervous?

- You ought to be.

- Okay, John.

Oh my God.

What have they done to her, John?

- She's been drugged.

- Don't worry, Angel,

this'll all be over by midnight,

assuming you whelp me a boy.

Hey, I'm doing this for you, Angel.

I'm doing this for all of us.

- This sucks.

We're missing the whole party.

- Hey, if Connor says

he'll show, he'll show.

And then we kill him.

And then we'll party.

- Hmm? Did you hear that?

Connor!

- Friends, been a long time coming

this night,

and what a thing

to have my badass pack here to see it.

Connor!

- And I want to thank Angel here

for just making me

the happiest wolf in the woods.

- F*** you!

- Oh, sh*t!

- It's like we're mated already.

Well, best get on with it, eh?

- Connory Slaughter!

- Yes!

Alpha dog!

Leader of the f***ing pack!

- Yeah!

- Do you take this b*tch for...

well, tonight, basically?

- I do.

- Angelina Timmins!

Owner of the only bar in town, and...

Do you take...

- Uh, Deke, she does.

Alright, well, uh...

it's the big moment.

So if you'll excuse us,

you guys enjoy yourselves

and we'll be back in,

let's say, 20 minutes.

Oh, hell, make it 40.

Unless, of course,

anyone's got any objections.

Doesn't count, Gail.

Alright, then, let's do it.

- I have an objection!

- Boy...

- Didn't I tell you?

Didn't I warn you

to leave these people alone?

- Well, they're my pack, boy.

They do what I tell them.

- This isn't a pack.

Wolves don't terrorize towns,

or kidnap innocents, or brutalize women.

You're barely wolves at all!

- Okay then, boys,

let's show him what we really are!

Hey!

You traitorous f***ing b*tch!

- Deke, shut the f*** up!

Go, John! Save him!

Wait!

- Ah...

Okay, here we go.

- Listen to me, all of you!

You think you can kill me,

but you can't!

Turn back and survive!

Stay...

and I'll kill you all.

- Bring him to me.

What in the hell?

Find him, Kino!

Bring me his f***ing head!

- We've got to be smart about this!

We gotta...

- You can't hide from me, boy.

Go, John, now!

- Oh, my poor barn.

- Holy sh*t...

- Hmm!

- This is my town, you little bastard!

- No! You chose the hills,

you keep to the hills!

You did this to me!

You made me the monster I am!

- Not monster enough, apparently.

I guess you really did have

some fight in you, kid.

Come on!

- Goodbye, Connory Slaughter.

No!

Look at me.

You've done... hideous things in your life.

And you deserve to die.

- You're right.

But you should know,

I never took Lucinda by force.

I loved her, and she loved me.

When her father found out

she was pregnant,

he threatened to kill her.

So I took the fall for it.

They took the woman that I loved

away from me.

And I just...

became the monster

they said I always was.

So go on, Cayden.

Just end it.

You earned it.

- Oh, well, I tell you, boys...

being here to witness

this happy homecoming

warms the cockles of my heart.

Makes all my trouble worthwhile!

Yahoo!

I knew it! Joe f***ing Wills.

- All these years later,

hey, it's Connory Slaughter,

beaten, on his knees.

- I see that eye of yours never healed,

did it?

- No. Just the one-eye Jack

with the gimpy limp.

So I'd never forget what you did to me.

Hmm?

You know what your old man told me

when he exiled me from this town?

He said that I was too wild, too brutal.

I swore I'd come back and kill you.

He just laughed at me.

Ha!

But the kid was the key.

You never knew he existed.

You never heard the stories.

But my little brother, Carter,

he told me.

He told me all about it.

Maybe I couldn't hurt you,

but Chipper here...

he's going to break your f***ing hide.

- Hey Joe, why don't you just turn around

and crawl right out of town?

- You think I went to all this trouble

tracking your offspring down,

bringing him here, killing his parents,

just to walk away?

Just to let you live?

- You did what?

- What?

Oh, yeah.

I killed your folks

and I kind of made the cops

think it was you.

Why?!

- Why?

To get you to grow up!

To bring you here!

To put him in this exact situation!

- You son of a b*tch!

- Aw, forget it.

You're too beat up to fight me now.

I mean, the both of you.

I could beat you with one hand

tied behind my back.

This is my day!

Oh, baby, I've earned it.

- Hey, Joe.

- Yeah?

- You know your brother, Carter?

- He's my baby.

- I had him for dinner two days ago.

Aw, sweet dreams, Connor.

- I'll kill you, Joe!

- Kill me?

You're my trained dog, boy.

I've been waiting for this for a long time.

- You were never too wild

for this town, Joe.

Just too crazy.

Aw, damn.

- Help me, kid.

Huh?

No?

Ah...

Aw!

Ever been shot in the shoulder?

It's like getting kicked in the shin,

but it's the shoulder.

So, are you gonna kill me now, too, huh?

Before you do, I'll give you

an interesting little tidbit.

Wolves, real wolves,

they only kill for food or defence.

- Well, I'm not a wolf, Joe.

I'm a human being.

- That's my point, son.

They're calling you a murderer,

a cold-blooded killer.

It's not true.

It's not what you are.

- I've killed tonight.

Because of you.

- No, kid.

Because you had to.

It was Connor.

It's always been Connor.

He made us this way.

He did it to all of us.

- Well, Connor's dead now, Joe.

- That's right.

I killed the monster that made you, boy.

And so, we're all paid up.

We're even.

- Even?

- Yeah.

- Is that what we are?

You know, I guess it's true.

I never have killed anyone in cold blood.

But, life is...

complicated.

And you ate my f***ing parents.

- Alright, boy!

Come on!

Show me what you got!

- What I've got, Joe?

- Yeah!

- You wouldn't believe me if I told you.

- F***.

- Hey-

- Hey-

- There. That should fertilize

the soy beans.

And no one need ever know.

So who's up for some breakfast?

- John, I gotta go.

- So soon?

Well, you, uh...

you got a home here now, you know.

- No, I... I know, and we'll be back.

It's just...

- It's me, John.
