Chapter 10: Never Giving Up Is The Right Thing To Do

(The family woke up and got prepared.)

Elena: "Is everyone ready?"

Sully: "Yep."

Joshua: "Yeah, we're ready to roll?"

Trevor and Isabelle: "Absolutely!"

Sam: "Same here. Brother?"

Nathan: "Yeah. Yeah. I'm ready. Let's get Lara back and find Jason." (At Vaas's place, Lara was ready to fight.)

Vaas: "Looking beautiful as always, chica. Now remember. I will be listening in to your conversations. Don't think I am stupid. I want them to be hurt. Not dead. Not yet. I might as well wait for that later, but for now, hurt them."

Lara: "Yes, sir." (She puts her earpiece in and Vaas kissed her cheek.)

Vaas: "I'll be waiting for you to return, my lovely dove." (She nodded and left his hut. Vaas was watching her leave and then he went to smoke a cigar. Elena kept moving forward and Joshua was right behind her with a machete.)

Elena: "So far, I don't see Lara anywhere or Jason."

Nathan: "They have to be here. They couldn't just leave. It's not that simple. There are men everywhere."

Sully: "Well, I say we keep looking until we do find them."

Nathan: "Thank you, Sully."

Elena: "Okay, we'll keep looking. Keep a sharp eye out."

Sam: "Don't have to tell me twice."

Isabelle: "Wait. I see someone moving quickly."

Trevor: "Really? Where?"

Isabelle: "Over there. Past the trees." (She points to the figure moving fast.)

Sam: "How come the kids can see someone and we can't?"

Sully: "Unbelievable right?"

Sam: "No kidding."

Elena: "It looks like they found her. Let's go." (They ran towards her, but Nathan was faster.)

Nathan: "Lara!"

Elena: "Nathan! Damn it! He never learns! Come on!" (She gestured everyone to move faster behind her.)

Nathan: "Lara!" (Lara looks at Nathan and he slows down towards her.)

Nathan: "Lara, I know you don't remember anything, but I have a reason why you couldn't remember. It's because Vaas messed with you."

Lara: "No, it was you who messed with me."

Nathan: "What?"

Lara: "Yeah, you. If you hadn't gotten in the way of Vaas's wedding, we wouldn't be in this mess right now!"

Nathan: "Lara, you're going insane! Can't you see that? Vaas is controlling you, your memories! Everything is a game to him!"

Lara: "No, I don't....believe you!"

Elena: "Nathan, we told you to stay back!"

Nathan: "No, I'm done holding back! I'm getting Lara back!"

Sully: "I don't know, kid."

Sam: "Lara, we know you're still in there trying to get out!"

Lara: "No, all of you are liars!" (Nathan grabbed her by the arms and shook her.)

Nathan: "Damn it, Lara! You must remember something in your heart for once in your life! I know you are in there. Please, I need you. Do you remember Siberia when I saved your life from that blizzard?"

Lara: "No...no. I don't need to listen to you! You are nothing, but a waste of my life! All of you!"

Nathan: "Listen to yourself, Lara! This is the drugs talking! Come back to us, Lara. Remember those times when were on the ship together?" (Lara was struggling to hold the anger inside herself.)

Lara: "Stop talking! Just stop!"

Nathan: "Remember Egypt and Venice?"

Lara: "I don't want to hear this!"

Nathan: "Do you remember that first kiss that we had in that pyramid of Giza? I know the Lara I know is still in your heart somewhere begging to get out. I told you many times before that we will never give up on you. Even when we were married. I promise you I will always be by your side until the very end. Here I am with you right now asking you to come back. I...I love you, Lara. I love you." (He kissed her deeply while holding her and he lets her go. She opened her eyes and smiled at him. Nathan smiled back and then she suddenly stabbed him right through the bicep. He yelled in pain.)

Lara: "Yeah, but I don't love you."

Elena: "Nathan! Everyone, open fire!"

Sully: "But we're going to hurt her!"

Elena: "It doesn't matter! Do what I say!" (They open fired at Lara and she ducked for cover.)

Vaas: (COM) "Chica, get out of there! Right ******* now!" (Lara bolted away from the gunfire and kept running to get to safety.)

Isabelle: "She didn't get hurt, did she?" (Trevor walked towards Elena upset.)

Trevor: "Why did you try to kill our mom?"

Elena: "She was dangerous and she tried to kill your father!"

Trevor: "He can still try to bring her back! He didn't need your help!"

Elena: "Oh, he can still try! If he's not dead in five seconds!"

Trevor: "You should have never came, Aunt Elena! You could've killed her! Did you hate our mom? Do you hate her now?"

Elena: "I hated her before, but now she's a friend."

Trevor: "Oh, really? Try saying that to her with a gun pointed to her forehead. I'm sure she would like to be your friend now! You're the worst!"

Nathan: "Trevor, you will respect your aunt!"

Trevor: "You want me to respect her after she almost killed our mother? Screw that and screw her!" (He ran after Lara and Isabelle followed him.)

Isabelle: "Trevor! Wait!" (Elena looked at Nathan's bicep.)

Elena: "You alright?"

Nathan: "Yeah, she just got my arm." (Sam started patching up Nathan's bicep.)

Sam: "Any deeper and she would've torn your muscle."

Sully: "Damn."

Nathan: "I'm lucky to be alive, though."

Elena: "Yeah, because what you did was completely stupid." (Nathan stood up and walked up in front of Elena.)

Nathan: "You know I had it handled! I was trying to bring her back to us and because of you, she ran off!"

Elena: "Because she stabbed you! She's not herself anymore and we need to face the damn facts. Lara is gone and we got no other options of how to approach her. She'll just keep on doing what she did to you just now. You get that?"

Nathan: "No, I believe she's in there still. Vaas did something bad to her and you just want me to kill her point blank?"

Elena: "You know that's not what I meant."

Nathan: "Oh, please. You tried to kill her just a second ago!"

Elena: "She stabbed you, Nathan! I just panicked, you know?"

Nathan: "Yeah, you panicked. Sure."

Elena: "You know what? I don't even have to argue. You get killed if you want to look for her then and if you scream, we won't come for you. You need to learn that she's gone for eternity and that she will never be the same."

Nathan: "Elena, you listen to me. You're a part of the family now and all you want to do is abandon your friend? You need to learn how to get along with people and earn their trust. I love Lara and you do as well. We're not giving up on her. You want to know why?"

Elena: "Because it's an option."

Nathan: "Hell no. Because it's the right thing to do. We will bring her back no matter how long it takes and we will show Lara that we are not cowards. Together we are strong and nothing will hold us back. We may even have to break her to get her back to us. Even if we die then it was worth giving it a chance. We can't give up not when there's more time left. So, we have to do this for Lara and her loved ones. You got that?"

Elena: "Yeah. You're right."

Sully: "I'm with you, kid."

Sam: "Hell yeah. All the way."

Nathan: "Then it's settled. Let's get to the kids." (They ran to where the kids were following their mother's footprints in the grass.)
