6. Before the final blow was struck,Copy !req
7. I tore open a portal in timeCopy !req
8. and flung him into the future,
where my evil is law.Copy !req
9. Now, the fool seeks to return
to the pastCopy !req
10. and undo the future that is Aku.Copy !req
11. No, man. That's some magic type stuff.Copy !req

34. Come with me.Copy !req
35. Thank you for your audience.
I had hoped...Copy !req
36. Quiet!Copy !req
37. It occurs to me that we
may be of some help to each other.Copy !req
38. For I study the lore
of ancient days,Copy !req
39. and it is here that I have collectedCopy !req
40. artifacts and lost treasures,Copy !req
41. with links to mystic forces.Copy !req
42. There is legend of powerful itemsCopy !req
43. That may serve us both.Copy !req
44. Have you ever heard of the Titans?Copy !req
45. Yes. The cosmic beings that sired
the Gods of Olympus.Copy !req
46. Quiet!Copy !req
47. Before the birth of Aku...Copy !req
48. before the ancient gods,Copy !req
49. it was the Titans that ruled all thingsCopy !req
50. and Cronus was their king.Copy !req
51. He understood the secrets
of time and spaceCopy !req
52. and fashioned for himself three gems:Copy !req
53. The eye of Cronus,Copy !req
54. to focus his vision
of the universe or time.Copy !req
55. Fists of might and ability,Copy !req
56. to grasp onto the cosmic essence.Copy !req
57. With these,Copy !req
58. he alone held the power
to command all eternity.Copy !req
59. But as Cronus' power grew,Copy !req
60. so, too, did his arrogance and paranoia.Copy !req
61. His appetite drove him to madness!Copy !req
62. Until his own son Zeus
rose to challenge him.Copy !req
63. Cronus was dethroned and imprisonedCopy !req
64. in the cold depths of space.Copy !req
65. He was stripped of his mighty gems,Copy !req
66. which Zeus cast earthwardCopy !req
67. in hopes that they would be lost forever.Copy !req
68. But, alas, with years of study,Copy !req
69. It is ICopy !req
70. who has discovered the tombs
of these powerful relics.Copy !req
71. And with the help of one such as you,Copy !req
72. we can unearth these treasures.Copy !req
73. And with the magic of the gems,Copy !req
74. we can tear a hole in the fabric of timeCopy !req
75. and mold a tunnel back
to whenever you came from.Copy !req
76. Come then, let us claim what you seek.Copy !req
77. Unless, of course, you are a coward.Copy !req
78. You are a fool.Copy !req
79. You're taking forever!Copy !req
80. We'll never get anywhere at this rate.Copy !req
81. Vamonos, muchacho!Copy !req
82. Now then, I'll worry
about travel arrangements.Copy !req
83. You just take care of the heavy lifting.Copy !req
84. Oh, no, young warrior.Copy !req
85. I can only guide you to the challenge.Copy !req
86. You must enter it alone.Copy !req
87. What are you waiting for?
Go and get it!Copy !req
88. Come on, already!Copy !req

107. The fist of might.Copy !req
108. Our final treasure lies deep within.Copy !req
109. Mmm-hmm. Mmm-hmm.Copy !req
110. Do it!Copy !req
111. That's right, sunshine!Copy !req
112. It's a door!Copy !req
113. I'd start using it, if I were you.Copy !req
114. Seeing how you managed
to lose my rope.Copy !req
115. Aah!Copy !req
116. May I be of any assistance?Copy !req
117. You can stay out of the way
and keep your mouth shut!Copy !req
118. Now, get him!Copy !req
119. Behind you!Copy !req
120. He's right behind you!Copy !req
121. Fool!Copy !req

123. by your little quest for time travelCopy !req
124. that you couldn't see the truthCopy !req
125. right in front of your face!Copy !req
126. Huh?Copy !req

131. No!Copy !req
132. You have deceived me many times, Aku,Copy !req
133. but you have become careless.Copy !req
134. Your lust to destroy me
left you the blinded one.Copy !req
135. And now, my trap is sprung!Copy !req
