"I saw the fiend!" "It had fangs!" "And claws!" "It was horrible!" "It haunts us!" "We must do something!" "We shall destroy him!" "(CROWD CLAMORING)" "(GASPS)" "(WOMAN 1 SCREAMS)" "The demon!" "(IN GERMAN) Schieß!" "Schieß!" "(GUN FIRING)" "MAN 1:" "Get him!" "(CROWD SHOUTING)" "MAN 2:" "Destroy the demon!" "WOMAN 2:" "Hurry!" "The thing is trapped in that dead end!" "(CROWD SHOUTING)" "MAN 3:" "Shoot him!" "It's vanished into thin air!" "Heartless fools." "They know not what they do." "GAMBIT: "I know," she say." ""Let's take a trip," she say." ""It'd be fun."" "Huh!" "Some fun!" "After what we've been through lately, I figured we could use some time off." "But you didn't tell me we'd have a chaperon." "Don't whine to me." "This ain't my idea of a good time." "Hey, hoser, I thought you like to ski." "This is sitting around drinking cocoa and getting funny looks from rich people." "Yeah?" "Well, next time, plan your own darn vacation!" "Chere, wait." "Well, I hope you're happy." "Don't know the meaning of the word." "Come on, a demon?" "You must be kidding." "I heard it on the train." "The whole town thinks they've been under attack by some dark creature for months!" "Must be some local yokel superstition." "Tell me more." "I'll make it up to you." "We'll fly to Monte Carlo." "We eat nice, lie on the beach..." " ROGUE:" "Where're you going?" " Demon hunting." "Interested?" "What hunting?" "Exactly how far is this Neuherzl?" "A couple of more miles." "Why?" "You quitting?" "It is getting kind of late." "Maybe I ought to fly us there." "What, and spoil Gumbo's fun?" "(SHOUTING)" "Okay." "So we don't ski much on the bayou." "(GIGGLING) You sure you don't want help?" "Of course not." "Gambit a natural athlete." "(SHOUTING)" "Remy!" "Hold on!" "We're coming!" "(SCREAMING)" "That better." "(EX CLAIMS)" "Where's Gambit?" "Come on, Remy." "Say something." "(PANTING)" "Man doesn't break a sweat against Apocalypse or Magneto." "So, so what nails him?" "A pine tree." "Wait." "(RUMBLING)" "Avalanche!" "I'm coming!" "Grab on!" "(WOLVERINE YELLING)" "(METALLIC CLINKING)" "(GROANING)" "(PANTING)" "(SIGHING)" "What in tarnation?" "Please, do not worry." "This is home to twenty members of our order." "We minister to many ski accident victims." "ROGUE:" "Logan!" " How is he?" " Gambit will hurt a while." " He'll be okay." " Praise be to God." "(SNIFFING)" "Who's the snoop?" "(EX CLAIMS)" "BROTHER MICHAEL:" "Brother Reinhard." "Please show our guests to the visitor accommodations." "Brother, is it wise to have strangers around at this terrible time?" "They are not the usual travelers!" "Those in need are always welcome, Brother Reinhard." "Please have faith in our mission." "You all are monks?" "So, I'm the only woman here." "Yeah." "Therefore, would you be kind enough to accept something more appropriate to wear during your stay?" "Don't wanna make the natives restless." "BROTHER MICHAEL:" "You should take care where you walk." "Some doors on the upper levels open into thin air." "The abbey was heavily damaged during the war." "So, Johann, besides praying and ministering, what do you boys do all day?" "Our mission is to give shelter and comfort to all travelers." "And, of course, to offer a place to renew one's relationship with the Lord." "Being close to heaven didn't help us this afternoon, Father." "Are you sure, sir?" "Have you lost your faith?" "What is it that you seek?" "Action." "For instance, I hear you got a demon hanging around here." "You mean down in the town, in Neuherzl." "Yes." "Odd rumor, isn't it?" "Personally, I never met a demon." "I better go check on Gambit." "(EX CLAIMS)" "Pardon, Reverend, I didn't expect..." "Hey!" "What are you doing?" "(COUGHING)" "(GROANS)" "(COUGHING)" "Can't catch nobody wearing this thing!" "(GASPS)" "Oh, no!" "They must serve the demon!" "Tight fit!" "(SCREAMS)" "(EX CLAIMS)" "(GROANING)" "There!" "You are safe now!" "(GASPS)" "Please!" "You do not understand!" "(GROANING)" "(GROWLING)" "Try hopping over these, pal!" "I do not wish to fight." "(GROANS)" "You and me are through dancing, Mr. Demon!" "No!" "You mustn't!" " Why not?" " Because he is my brother." "Brother?" "I don't see the resemblance." "Brother in the ecclesiastical sense." "That is, a member of our monastery." "I am sorry I startled you, Fräulein." "I did not know you could fly." "It's okay." "I didn't know you could do whatever that was you did." "Teleportation." "I think of a place I'd rather be, look to it, and I am there." "Gambit rather be in Monte Carlo." "(GROANS)" " Think you can work that out?" " Enough small talk!" "Are you the guy who attacked Gambit?" "Of course not!" "Brother Nightcrawler is a man of God." "But, you are the demon we heard tell about?" "In a manner of speaking, yes." "Like yourselves, I am a mutant." "But unlike most mutants, my condition was obvious from the moment I was born." "(BAB Y CRYING)" "(BOTH GASP)" "The villagers drove my mother away, for bearing such a freak." "I never even knew her name." "She abandoned me." "But I did not die." "Instead I was found by a family of traveling performers." "I became Nightcrawler, the star attraction of their little circus." "For their freakish world, I was perfect!" "But when the spotlight went out," "I was still an outcast." "Shunned and hated." "Guess there no peace for the wicked-Iooking." " Gambit!" " No, he's right." "Though all people are flawed and all struggle with the capacity for sin, none likes to be reminded of our shared human weakness." " My appearance does not make it easy." " Don't it make you crazy?" "It did once." "But then I found peace by devoting my life to God." "He directed me to this place, where they value the character of my heart, not my appearance." "What are you talking about?" "We're mutants!" "God gave up on us a long time ago." "No, my friend," "God does not give up on his children, human or mutant." "He is there for us in our times of joy, and to help us when we are in pain." "If we let him." "Don't give me that easy-answer garbage!" "I've tried!" "Don't you think I want that?" "I don't need a sermon from some circus-boy preacher." " Looks like you touched a nerve." " I am sorry." " I did not mean to upset him." " GAMBIT:" "Fine." "Now Gambit got a question." "If you're not the guy who tried to put me out for good, who was?" "BROTHER REINHARD:" "People of Neuherzl!" "I can no longer allow such sacrilege!" "The beast you seek is there!" "In the monastery!" "Are you mad?" "Those are men of God!" "The Evil One has defiled that holy place!" "It must be destroyed!" "(CROWD SHOUTING)" "You are searching for me?" "No, looking for a moment alone." "We are alike, you and I, angry at the world, and ourselves." "My pain drove me to seek God." "Yours drove you away." "Don't tell me about God!" "What kind of God would let men do this to me?" "Our ability to understand God's purpose is limited, but we take comfort in the fact that his love is limitless." "(SCOFFS) I used to buy into all that." "But I've lived too long." "And I've done too much." "Life will always be hard." "I understand this better than most." "Yet despite it all, people of every faith believe there is a God who loves them." "Can so many be wrong?" "Open your heart, Herr Logan." "Would it hurt so much to see the world through different eyes?" "Brother!" "There is a mob headed up the road from Neuherzl." "They must have discovered you are here." "And they want to rip you into little pieces." "Tell me, preacher." "What's God's purpose in that?" "Neuherzl is isolated." "The people know nothing about mutants." "Perhaps I am here to help open their hearts." " I must leave so no one will be hurt." " Running away, preacher?" "What's wrong?" "Lose your faith?" "Why?" "Why must they always hate me?" "(CROWD CLAMORING)" "Remember, Logan." "Those people aren't bad." "They're just scared." "Be careful." "Careful?" "Fifty against two?" "GAMBIT:" "Trois, mes amis." "Don't you know Gambit's ready for anything?" "You sure you're up to this?" "Course, chere." "Soon as the room stop spinning." "(CROWD SHOUTING)" "Welcome Wagon's arrived." "Devil!" "Out with you!" "MAN 1:" "Destroy the demon!" "MAN 2:" "Out with him!" "Again!" "Harder!" "God is with us!" "First, you got to get past me!" "ALL:" "Get him!" "Get him!" "Okay, people, now settle down!" "Don't touch me!" "(GROANING)" "Stop the demons!" "Our families!" "They want to hurt us!" "Destroy them!" "(SCREAMING)" "Get out of my head!" "I'm trying not to turn you bozos into hamburger." "Now, back off!" "(GROANS)" "Bitte, Frau Kohler!" "You know us!" " Please listen!" " Nein!" "You are a pawn of the Evil One!" "Tell us where your monster is hiding!" "I am not hiding!" "(WOMAN SCREAMING)" "The library?" "How did we get here?" "(GROANING) Gambit not enjoying this vacation one bit." " Get him downstairs!" " What are you going to do?" "I will surrender." "It is the only way to prevent anyone else getting hurt." "(SHOUTING)" "Brother Reinhard!" "Stop!" "This is the end, demon!" "Be careful!" "The whole place is catching fire!" "Defiler!" "(GASPS) The demon is attacking Brother Reinhard!" " I shall surrender!" " No!" "You have corrupted this place!" "I must purify it!" "(SHOUTING)" "(ALL EX CLAIMING)" "Go ahead, demon, do your worst." "Why do you pause?" "I have betrayed you!" "It is not for me to judge you, Brother Reinhard." "The question is, how will God judge you?" "Look around you." "This is the fruit of your labors!" "Not mine!" "Lord, help me!" "I was wrong!" "I have sinned!" "What have I done?" "Thank you, my friends." "Your presence here was a great blessing." "What do you mean, blessing?" "Look at this place!" " We blew it!" " I disagree." "Brother Reinhard understands his tragic mistake and has repented." "The townspeople no longer look at me with fear in their hearts." "There was no loss of life." "All are reasons to be thankful." " What about the monastery?" " A great tragedy." "But it was only stone and mortar." "The foundation God has built in our hearts can never be destroyed." "Man, I don't get you." "Here, I've marked a few passages you may find rewarding." "Remember, Herr Logan, "Different eyes."" "(SIGHS)" "GAMBIT:" "Paris." "Back in the civilized world." "I don't know." "Those quiet little monks were starting to grow on me." "Face it, chere, those monks kid themselves." "We on our own in this world." "Life is random." "Deal you a full house or a busted flush." "What did I say?" "(SIGHS)" "What if he's right?" "What if there is nothing else?" "WOLVERINE: "I will give thanks to you, oh Lord." ""For though you were angry with me your anger turned away," ""and you comforted me." "I will trust and will not be afraid.""
