4 Ugh! Whatever! I m a mercenary, not a hunter! We ve been hiding out too long. You guys are nearly healed up-- --we should do something fun! Like rob a bank! We ain t doing nothing. I m outta this loser outfit the minute these last stitches come out. Ah, quit bluffing, Victor. if you wanted to take off, you d have done it already. You kinda liked fighting Stryker, saving the world, didn t you? Nah I just like not having a million super heroes breathing down my neck. But all you guys wanna do is chase down monsters and then not kill em. Where s the fun in that? Hey, I know! We should rob a bank! You just said that. Seriously. Find a bad bank, you know. Money launderers or whatever. And rob the hell out of em. Do some good. And get paid. C mon, Yuriko. You like money, don t you? Ah, what the hell. it would be something to do, wouldn t it?

Hnn. Ugh. So soft in your old age. Won t even rob a lousy bank now? C mon, Logan. We re a buncha kooks, right? Killers and loners and mercs gonna need something to keep us out of trouble, right? Whoa.

He s an indigenous man trying to keep his family alive. So hell yes I gave him my number. Acero, what s going on?

Santo Marco. They burned down the village! We re about a mile north, heading up into the mountains! There s about thirty of us including a lot of kids and old folks!

6 Santo Marco. They burned down the village! We re about a mile north, heading up into the mountains! There s about thirty of us including a lot of kids and old folks!
