No. This one ran, let the mother kill herself.
Go on. Hit me.
You won't fetch as many pesos with my face swollen, and you know it.
This is what the rest of your life will taste like.
Keep still.
That them?
Once they clear those trees, they'll be riding in line along that river.
l'll shoot the front horse.
You shoot a horse in the middle. We're lucky, they'll scatter.
-Thought we'd buy her back. -The more of them we kill...
...the easier they'll be to reason with.
Maybe she'll get clear and save us the trouble altogether.
Dot, you keep shooting. Try to hit a horse.
Mother of Jesus...
...you watched your child suffer.
Give me strength. Stop my hands from trembling.
Let them come on.
Not yet. Not yet.
Let them come. Let them come.
On my call, pick a horse in the middle and shoot him in the neck.
l can't see Lilly.
Dot!
Take everything.
They're Chiricahua.
Kayitah, where did you steal that horse?
Chaa-duu-ba-its-iidan? Hasn't someone killed you yet?
You still owe me three lion hides, you know.
l lived with his family for a time.
-Good. That's good, isn't it? -Name's Kayitah.
Think the other one's his son.
Forget the hides. Give us your horses and your guns and we'll call it even.
-They want our horses and guns. -l am not giving over my horses.
You understand? You'll have to kill me first.
You tell him what l said.
Now look. You pissed her off.
How can you tell? You people look pissed off all the time.
You tell them to get on their way.
Even better, you tell them we want their guns and ammunition.
Go on. You tell him.
The men you just killed were trying to kill us too.
The witch stole my son's future.
His bride was taken a week ago.
He stole my granddaughter too. We can help each other.
And she's a healer.
Ain't no undergarments or nothing.
Dot, bring me my bag.
Go outside, sweetheart.
You don't know what diseases these people have.
l don't usually operate on lndians.
They have green blood and a pinecone in their chest instead of a heart.
Just give me that mescal.
All right. lt'll hurt.
Do you still go up north and fool around with that fat Zuni girl?
Don't lie.
No. She started to like me too much.
He told me this brujo's mother was raped by a witch.
Came out of her womb two years later with a full set of teeth.
l'm not feeling too good myself.
Don't sit too close, darling. l'm not feeling too good.
-lt's so cold. -lt's not that cold, Ma.
You knew my father?
What do you remember about him?
We called him Chaa-duu-ba-its-iidan.
He was a good hunter.
Yeah. He was.
He married Laatsine. His Chiricahua wife.
Was she beautiful?
No.
She was cross-eyed.
He was living with the Navajo when she died of smallpox.
She died... l didn't realize.
Moved around a lot. Never still, Chaa-duu-ba-its-iidan.
Moving spirits don't make happy men.
Did he love her? His Chiricahua wife?
He loved all of them. For a time.
Hello.
What are you doing?
l'm dreaming of what's gonna happen tomorrow.
Can l dream on it too?
l don't know. Can you?
Can't.
Mom's talking in her sleep again.
Sometimes at home, she talks so loud we have to wake her up.
Sometimes she cries. Other times, she sounds like somebody's hurting her.
And all the next day, she looks at Lilly funny.
Me and Lilly notice, even though Mama doesn't, l don't think.
-What happened to her? -l don't know and l wouldn't ask.
l think when she was young, she was...
...treated with cruelty.
She was alone in the world at that time.
You wish you'd been there?
l don't wish.
Mama.
-Ma, wake up, you're having a bad-- -Don't touch her.
The Brujo has put a curse on her.
l will gather some ghost bush.
Go get your mother's Bible.
-ls it bees? -Go on.
What did you leave behind at that camp?
Today. This day, what did you leave behind?
l don't.... l don't know.
Help me again to heal.
Keep all evil away from here.
Mama. Don't let him, Mama.

-Let's attack them. -We don't have a chance.
Still, we must try.
Father, l can fight too.
No.
You stay here.
Morning.
-Good morning. -Reckon l drank from the wrong bottle.
Wrong as can be.
-Here. -You need to keep that on.
You know, Dot was wearing hers when she almost drowned.
Yes. Almost.
After we attacked them, you reckon we can still buy them back?
l don't know. Money's always money.
But we don't have enough to buy them all, though. Two or three at the most.
You get Lilly.
And get the lndian girl...
...and...
...whoever else you can.
Sorry for the rest.
l'll see you again.
Should be back by dark.
lf we're not, leave at daylight tomorrow.
That means go home. You and Dot.
You understand?
You tell me yes, or l'm not going.
l understand.
Give this to my daughter.
She won't trust an lndian.
l want to buy two girls.
-l want to buy two girls. -Yeah?
-Do l deal with you? -No.
You deal with him, there.
You have two girls l want to buy.
You are a make believe lndian. ls that what you are?
Yeah, that's right.
You want to become a real lndian? Like them?
l want to give you 600 dollars for two girls.
Some here want your money.
For the evil your people have done...
l want your pain.
Look at me.
lnside you are two dogs.
One is evil, the other is good.
The mean dog fights the good dog all the time.
Which one wins?
l don't know.
Whichever one l feed the most.
No. They are killing each other. That is what makes you sick.
l will make you a real lndian. That is what your soul asks me for.
This will tear out your soul.
You were born white, but you will die an lndian.
Do you know this? Do you know this?
l don't understand.
Die slow.
The vultures will eat your guts while you watch.
Please. Please.
That's my mother's.
What did you do to my mother? What did you do?
You killed him.
You killed us all.
There is nothing we can do.
There is no hope.
My friend.
Do a favor for me.
Forget your gophers and mice.
Take me to my family.
Give them repentance and better minds.
Be merciful, O God, to those who are in any trouble.
And do thou, O God of pity, administer to them according to their--
Ma?
--needs.
Grandpa said we was to leave in the morning.
He'll come back.
He's gonna come back.
Reward all those who have done us good.
Pardon all those who have done or wish us evil.
Give them repentance and better minds.
Be merciful, O God, to anyone who's in any trouble.
And deal with them, O God of pity, according to their needs...
...with kindness, just as Jesus Christ, your son, did.
l told you to go home.
How bad are you hurt?
l've seen the girl. She's still alive.
Your father never stopped fighting.
They killed him like cowards.
Are we gonna go get Lilly?
You can raise this child.
Take her home.
And you can be sure of that.
You do anything else, you're likely to lose two daughters and your own life.
l don't know how to leave her.
You can't turn away from that?
Can you?
All right...
...Magdalena.
All right.
You.
You scared of dead things?
-They finally going to get buyers? -He'll be back. We sell them today.
Hey, my friend, we're getting paid today.
The body is gone.
lt's him, look!
He's come back from the dead!
Don't think like that. Come this way with me.
lt's a trick, you idiots!
Get the girl.
Get down there.
Mama.
l'm sorry. l'm sorry. l'm sorry.
lt's all right, baby. lt's all right.
You cut them loose. Get to the horses!
l thought we killed that bastard.
Get going!
Get out of here, Maggie.
Where are the women?
Give me your horses.
l will bring them back before nightfall.
And leave us here with no horses?
We don't have time to drink water. Let's go!
-Can they catch us? -Oh, yeah.
Help me.
Take my arm.
l got her.
We're going to the top! lf your horse quits, get off and go on afoot!
Hold on to the tail. l got you.
-You knew this was here. -l've had occasion to use it before.
We won't get to the other side before dark.
We'll have to last out the night right here.
Put as much dry brush as you can carry in this gap!
Are you all right?
Your hair's all tangled.
Here, let me get it.
lt's all right.
lt's all right, Lill-Lill.
You'll see.
l dreamed on it.
We're gonna get away, and Grandpa's gonna come live with us...
...and we're all gonna be a family.
You'll see.
Right, Ma? lsn't that right?
Yeah.
You know that lndian name of yours?
-What's that mean? -Very hard to translate that.
Try it.
lt means ''shit for luck.''
-ls that right? -Yes, it is.
Chiricahua value family very highly.
A man doesn't live with his family, he's not considered particularly...
...enviable.
l don't have any lndian...
...brothers or sisters?
None that lived.
What did you see in them...
...you didn't see in us?
Why didn't you stay?
There's an Apache story about a man that woke up one morning...
...and saw a hawk on the wind.
Walked outside and never returned.
After he died, he met his wife in the spirit world. She asked him why.
He said, ''Well, the hawk kept flying.''
There's always the next something, Maggie.
And that will take a man away.
You tell yourself you're protecting them, they're better off without you.
Stay or go, there's nothing a man can do to protect his family from himself.
l guess l do realize now l made people's lives more...
...difficult by the things l have done...
...and the things l have not done.
People l did love, mostly.
-l'm not forgiving you. -Not asking you to.
l wore that birthing both my girls.
l thought l'd die wearing it.
l've always liked this thing.
Your mother gave it to me.
Never meant to leave it behind.
Thank you.
l better see to Lilly and them.
Look out!
Pull those horses back!
Your brujo's dead!
Leave!
Let's go home.
