What the fuck?

What the fuck is wrong with you?

You're fucking a tiger.

What the

fuck is that?

Mother of

breeze!

I should just murder this fucking address list.

What the fuck is happening?

Hey, come on!

Get out of here.

You come around here, you're gonna have to

deal with me!

You okay?

Yeah, I think so.

Shit.

Cleaned you out, huh?

Name's Slick.

Laker.

All right, Laker.

You fight pretty good, man.

Where'd you learn?

Fool around at the academy.

Looks like you did more than fool around

to me.

Come on, I'll buy you a drink.

You look like you could use one.

The booze tastes like shit, but the view

sure is easy on the eyes.

Hey, Slick.

Hey, Dom.

How are you?

I'm all right.

Oh, yeah.

Same.

So what brings you to Earth, Stargaze?

What's with this Stargaze?

It's a name for you off-world types.

You are from off-planet, right?

Yeah.

Where from?

New World 1?

2.

Thanks, Dom.

Thanks.

You know, shit, it's real nice there.

Blue skies and stuff.

You know, I often thought of saving me

up a bunch of bills and taking off

there one day.

Maybe.

I don't know.

What brings you to Hell?

Okay, buddy, what's it gonna be?

What the fuck you looking at?

I said, what the fuck you looking at?

Nothing.

Oh, I'm nothing, huh?

What's your problem?

I don't like people staring at me, you

fuckboy.

Hit me.

Nothing personal, man.

Okay!

I got you, Dom!

I got you, Dom!

I got you, Dom!

Oh, the door.

I tried to buff him with a pair

of threes.

A pair of threes?

Yeah.

Tell me.

Piss him, man.

Get to our feet.

Throw me at the table.

I'll split it with you.

50-50.

60-40.

Okay, you're on.

Ready?

Enough!

Enough!

Enough!

Get out of here!

Hey!

Enough, buddy.

Don't hurt me.

You got something?

Oh, yeah.

Thanks.

Hey, you wanna get a bite to eat?

Nah, I better find my brother's place.

Surprise visit.

Came to take him home.

Really?

Where's home?

Off planet.

Oh, lucky bastard.

Who is he?

Johnny Powers.

Johnny Powers?

Junker?

Junker?

What's a junker?

Yeah, you know.

Fighter, boxer, tall guy.

Yes, he's a gardener.

Yeah, that's him.

Oh, Jesus, man.

Don't you know?

Know what?

Your brother's dead.

What?

Two days ago, he went big in the

junk pit.

Later, someone jumped him and cleaned him out

and left him dead in an alley.

Who did it?

Could've been another junker.

Could've been anyone.

Shit happens a lot around here.

Here's my key.

It's on the top floor.

I got a debt to pay off.

I'll be back.

Thanks.

Don't move.

How'd you get in here?

Eddie.

He gave me his key.

Eddie, huh?

So how much does he owe you?

Or do you owe him?

Sorry, but I don't know what you're talking

about.

The hell you don't.

Look, lady, just keep the gun trained on

the floor and I'll be on my way.

Ah, you've met.

Marta, this is Laker.

Laker, this is my sister Marta.

Laker's broke, so I invited him to stay

with us.

Yeah?

Well, you can invite him to leave, because

this day is over.

Oh, come on.

That's all right, man.

I'm out of here.

For Christ's sake, Marta, take it easy, will

you?

Don't tell me to take it easy, all

right?

This is not your place.

It's mine.

So until you come up with some money,

don't tell me what to do.

Look.

Someone bumped off his brother.

He just found out.

It won't take up much room.

Look, I'm sorry about earlier.

It's just that Eddie's always bringing home stray

cats, and between that and the gambling debts,

I can never keep a bill in my

pocket.

So what does Eddie do?

He's a junker, like your brother.

He thinks he's gonna make you big one

day and take us both off this rock.

Maybe he will.

Maybe.

Do you still got your round-trip ticket?

Yeah.

Well, do yourself a favor and use it.

There's nothing here for you.

Somebody killed my brother, Marta.

It's tough, but what can you do about

it?

I don't know.

That's when we'll find out.

Personal effects.

No leads.

Sorry.

Yeah.

Hurts a fucked-up place.

I get, uh, I don't know, a hundred

murders a week in my zone alone.

Uh, look, uh, why don't you go back

to that nice off-world colony of yours,

and, uh, we'll keep you informed.

Who knows?

Maybe we'll even find the guy.

Yeah, well, maybe he's not good enough.

Hey, Stargates.

What you doing on our turf?

You threw a mean set, just like your

brother Johnny.

Eddie told me you're Johnny's brother.

You know, Johnny dropped a lot of guys.

That's why they took him out.

And what do you know about it?

I'm just giving you the word on the

street.

Who killed him?

Somebody from the fights?

Probably.

He didn't have too many friends.

When I find out who killed him...

When you find him, you what?

Kill him?

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know what I'll do.

What do you want, Laker?

You want justice or revenge?

You better decide, because if it's justice you

want, you're on the wrong fucking planet.

I don't get it.

I entered this fighting, this junkie.

It puts you in the scene.

If the killer's a junker, this is the

best possible way to flesh him out.

Why do I need you?

I know this scene.

You won't get in without me.

And besides, you need somebody to train you.

Don't do it, Laker.

You take one step in, and you'll never

walk out.

I think it's a good idea.

You would.

You honestly think this will lead me to

the killer?

Yeah, I do.

What is your stake in this?

Why are you so concerned?

I like you, man.

I like the way you fight.

I think we could make some big, big

money.

What do you mean, we could?

I get 20%.

I'll give you 50%.

You just find me the bastard who killed

my brother.

Know your enemy, and know yourself.

In 100 battles, you'll never be defeated.

What?

All warfare is based on deception.

When capable, you feign incapable.

When certain, you feign dilemma.

They'll feed you for phosphor.

I'm full of surprises.

Now stop.

Stop, that's good.

What now?

Get yourself cleaned up.

We're gonna go check out the competition.

Listen.

Watch this

shit.

Watch this shit.

This is...

Hey, Flip, how's your brother?

Could be better, man.

Yeah, brother's safe.

Five years.

Recycled.

Recycled?

Uh, prison.

Says it's just like here, only with the

electrodes.

Nah.

Check it out.

Most of the guys you're gonna be facing

are here tonight watching the show, so pay

attention.

Two ways guys can be giant killers.

See that dude right there?

That's Lee.

Fast motherfucker, man.

Teach you everything you wanna know about Chinese

China.

They call him the Hulk.

Aw, shit.

Pussy.

So, uh, pretty good fight, huh?

Anything left out of Paris?

Hmm.

That's Black Ice.

He's not too much of a smoker.

Don't fuck with him.

Hey, what's up, stargazer?

Think you can go the distance?

Excuse me.

Matt Mustapha.

Big moneymaker from the Junker fights.

What's up?

Watch your ass, boy.

All right.

This is part of my training.

Get your blood pumping, don't it?

All right, ladies and gentlemen, let's hear it

for the lovely Leggy Fatima.

Now, ladies and gents, we got just what

you've been waiting for.

Take out that green ring, because we have

got the scenery.

We took your favorite fox, and we put

her right up there on the box.

So, take your hands out of your pockets

and put them together for the mindless, mouthful

Marta.

If you're looking for a walk instead, you

better get in line.

But if you're eager for the back of

a hand, it looks like your ass is

mine.

You've got a secret that you just can't

say, but I know what you need.

I'll give the orders and you will obey.

You never will be free.

So, if humiliation's what you crave, then you

can be my slave.

Be my slave.

You're gonna get it if you don't behave.

Don't you be my slave.

Be my slave.

Be my...

Watching you now can't tell just what you're

looking for.

You know I see you and you know

damn well I'm gonna leave you so.

You make this harder than it has to

be.

I wish I could be nice.

But you've been naughty and it's up to

me to make you pay the price.

So, if humiliation's what you crave, you can

be my slave.

Be my slave.

You're gonna get it if you don't behave.

Don't you be my slave.

Be my slave.

Oh.

She enjoyed the show?

Yeah, I'm sorry.

Why do you do this?

Sometimes you do what you gotta do even

if you don't like it.

You of all people should know that.

Yeah.

In warfare, there's normal and extraordinary force.

Use normal force to engage, extraordinary force to

win.

Normal force is what is apparent.

Extraordinary force is what is hidden.

Defense is all anticipation.

Pretend inferiority and encourage your opponent's arrogance.

Attack him where he's unprepared.

Keep him under a strain and then wear

him down.

You're wearing me down.

Okay, time out.

What'd you say this is called again?

Stanson.

It'll relax you.

It'll take the edge off.

I don't think I want the edge taken

off.

Well, then give it to me.

Shit.

What the fuck?

Where'd you get this jacket?

I said where, motherfucker?

I'll find it.

Where?

Is he the one?

No.

Johnny would've broken his seat.

Who killed him?

Not me.

Who?

I found Serpiente.

A snake.

Snake?

What do you mean by a snake?

Let him go.

Hold it!

Come on.

Let's get the hell out of here.

Come on!

Don't ever pull a stunt like that again.

I need this job, all right?

And if you don't like what I do,

then stay away.

Faye, we gotta talk.

What?

I want you to stay away from Laker.

Why?

Right now, you're the last thing he needs.

When he steps into that pit, he's gotta

be single-minded or else he's dead meat.

Do you understand?

Oh, I understand a lot.

Good.

Keep away.

Defense is anticipation.

In warfare, there's normal and extraordinary force.

It's normal to engage, extraordinary to win.

All warfare is based on deception.

When capable, Faye in capacity.

When certain, Faye in dilemma.

Normal force?

Normal force is what is apparent.

Extraordinary force is what is hidden.

Not bad.

Thanks.

Catch.

Catch.

You heard of a junker called a snake?

What?

Just someone in fights called a snake.

Could be.

A whole lot of them are animals.

When I win, it's money in your pocket.

So it'd be to your advantage to delay

me from finding my brother's killer.

What do you take me for?

A guy who wants to make an easy

buck.

Look, one thing's for sure.

In two days' time, you're gonna be out

there in that pit, and you ain't gonna

learn squat if you're taken out in the

first fight.

So let's stay on track, huh?

Okay, what's next?

A sparring party.

In the white corner, the reigning champion, the

crowd favorite, Lightning Eddie Jaworski!

Remember, in the arena, you fight till one

of you goes down.

No ref, no points.

Weapons are random.

You win, or you get your ass whipped.

Ready?

Let's do it.

Come on.

Come on.

That's pretty nice.

Here, check this out.

Ready?

Shit, are you fighting or dancing?

Come on.

Relax, man.

Sit down, man.

Eddie, I'll give you 20 bills.

Take him out.

Relax, slick.

30 bills.

You heard him, man.

Relax.

I'll give you 50 bills.

Just knock him on his ass, now!

Sorry, pal.

Money's money.

What the hell are you doing, man?

Relax.

You all

right?

Okay?

I'm okay.

By the way, you're ready.

Sit down.

Hiya, slick.

Boy, see you got yourself another boy.

This here's Laker Power.

Remember the name.

Power?

Well, thank you.

Good luck.

Now pace yourself.

You got four fights and four days.

Lose one, it's goodbye to everything.

With them all, we take home a lot

of bills, all right?

I'll do my part.

You just find me the killer.

Is he your Power's brother?

Yeah.

Know anything about a snake?

Yeah.

Got one in my pants.

Shh.

Shh.

Hey, what's up, buddy?

I placed a bet on you.

Okay.

How much?

Two bills.

Showtime.

I came to wish you good luck.

Thanks.

I've never seen her here.

Hey.

I think I was gonna see you after,

but it was about five bucks.

All right, quiet down.

Hey, quiet down.

Hey, shut the fuck up!

All right, you thieves, you fornicators, you mass

murderers, welcome to the pit!

Now, for the benefit of all you newcomers,

let me give a brief description of the

rules.

There are none!

All right, let's get it on!

Morales!

DeWarski!

Yeah!

No problem.

Get the fuck out of my face!

Get out of my face!

Get the fuck out of my face!

Like I said, no problem.

Powers...

and the Hawk!

Come on!

Come on!

Christ, there goes my two bills.

Thanks, man.

I'll be back.

Check it out.

Invincibility depends on oneself.

Your opponent's vulnerability, that's on him.

You sure you don't look vulnerable to me?

I want you to attack him hard, I

want you to attack him early, and then

crush the bastard.

Just fuck him up, okay?

Fuck him up.

Kick his ass!

Get him!

Come on!

No, no, stop following me!

No, I said no!

Come on!

50-50, just like we said.

You did good tonight, brother.

Thanks.

Any word out there?

We're getting close.

Congratulations.

Thanks.

You know, for a moment, I thought that

I was actually enjoying it out there.

Don't ever enjoy it, Laker, or else you're

gonna end up like all the others.

Look, give me your brother's picture, and tomorrow

I'll ask around and see if anybody knows

anything.

You know Slick thinks I'm bad for you.

He thinks you're falling in love with me.

Yeah, well, Slick needs to keep out of

my personal life.

Are you?

Lee!

Come on!

Where the fuck you been?

Sorry, man.

I overslept.

You got three more days, three more fights.

Don't piss him away.

Relax.

Can I

kill this guy?

Shit, I wish I'd have knocked his ass

off.

Bids cost me a bundle.

Lee Powers!

Hey, I got three bills on you tonight,

man.

Thanks.

Check it out.

He's gonna try to tire you out.

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Stay cool.

Don't get impatient.

Just kick his ass.

Shut up.

I said shut the fuck up!

Come on, boy.

Come on.

Keep your hands up.

Watch your distance.

Jesus Christ!

Get him out of here.

Come on, get him out!

Did you find out anything?

I think I know what he meant by

the killer being a snake.

What?

Come on.

Shit.

Some of the gamblers, they talk that way.

They say that a rat has an outside

chance and that a fox is an underdog,

but a snake is a front-runner, a

favorite.

She was a favorite I met.

Anything else?

Well, it seems like your brother wasn't too

popular, Laker.

I guess some people didn't like the way

he fought, and he put some junkers in

the hospital, and a lot of people are

glad he's not around, not to mention he

was off-planet like you.

What are you saying?

What I'm saying is that you're dealing with

a lot of dangerous people.

A lot's at stake out there.

Money and reputations.

Some hotshot steps in on submarines things.

It's gonna cause problems.

Maybe you should just let it go.

Powers?

Black ice.

Not three bills?

Fifty.

To lose.

Get outta here!

Get outta here!

This is good.

Thanks for the tip.

If you guys got any money, you better

bet on my boy Laker Powers right here.

Number one.

Watch.

Let's get it!

Let's go!

Let's go!

Come on!

What the fuck are

you doing?

Guy by the exit.

I saw Johnny's killer.

Where?

Guy in the hat.

Stop him.

I'll take care of this guy.

There you go.

Where is he?

His name's Manolo.

Says he'll meet you tomorrow.

Did you let him go?

It's okay.

I found out where he lives.

And he'll tell me who the killer is.

Yeah.

For a price.

He lives down here?

Yeah.

People do.

This is Earth, remember?

Looks like he's even got himself a little

generator.

Hello?

Slick.

There goes that idea.

One more

fight, we're in the big money.

Look, Slick, if you know something, tell me

now.

Or so help me God, I'll get up

and walk away from this contest right now.

Look, I told you everything I know.

Word has it, Eddie is one of the

Fighters.

He hated your brother.

And he's out to get you.

Then who is it?

If I knew, I would tell you.

Let's go watch Eddie fight, okay?

Come on, let's go watch Eddie.

Son of a bitch!

Eddie!

Come on, Eddie.

Come on, Eddie.

Fight back, man.

Come on, Eddie.

You're next.

Look, man, we need to talk.

Go get some sleep.

You're gonna need it.

There's nothing you can do here.

Listen to me.

You got a fight in a few hours.

Now go home.

Look, man, not now.

What's gonna happen to him?

Minor brain damage?

His toes will move but he can't walk?

Stop.

This whole fighting game is a goddamn trap.

Flexing your muscles for a few bills and

some tainted glory?

Stop the player.

Eddie's paralyzed.

And tomorrow can be you.

Look, man.

Is Darkman chickening out?

He'll be here.

Good.

Man, you look like shit.

How the fuck do you think you're gonna

win now?

What's the point, Slick?

One more victory?

What the hell am I doing?

I don't even know if this guy's the

one.

Laker.

There's something I gotta tell you.

Where the fuck is Powers?

I've done some checking.

Johnny's last victory was against our meds little

brother.

Some fight.

The brother's lying in a ward brain-dead.

And by the way, they call our med

the Snake.

You knew all along?

No.

Just holding you until I had to fight

him.

You used me.

Hey, Powers.

Come on.

Let's go.

Come on.

Laker.

I found this in the hospital.

The patient next to Eddie, he's the fighter

your brother took out.

Yeah, I know.

Slick told me.

It's our med's brother.

What?

I med killed Johnny for revenge.

No.

Look what this says.

Look.

The fighter in the hospital.

It's Slick's brother.

He's got a snake tattoo on his arm.

Don't you see?

Slick killed Johnny.

All warfare is deception, right?

It was

your brother that Johnny beat.

You killed him.

Guess we both lost somebody we love.

And before Manolo could tell me anything, you

cut him up.

And I gave him to you.

Don't do it, Laker.

Don't make me waste you too, man.

Why'd you do it, Slick?

All the training, the fighting.

Don't you see?

It was just too beautiful to miss.

First I kill your brother, and then I

get you to make me enough money to

leave this hellhole.

It was just too perfect.

Why didn't you kill me?

Well, I was going to, but things changed.

I started to like you, man.

But this don't have to go no further.

We can both turn around and just walk

out of here.

Nobody gotta know.

But you take one more step, and I'm

gonna have to fuck you up.

Son of a bitch.

I taught you everything you know, Star, man.

I know all your weaknesses.

Extraordinary force!

You're as

weak as your brother.

Shit.
