1. Long ago,
in a distant land,
Copy !req
2. I, Aku, the shape-shifting
master of darkness,
Copy !req
3. unleashed an unspeakable evil.
Copy !req
4. But a foolish samurai warrior
wielding a magic sword,
Copy !req
5. stepped forth to oppose me.
Copy !req
6. Before the final blow
was struck,
Copy !req
7. I tore open a portal in time
Copy !req
8. and flung him into the future,
where my evil is law.
Copy !req
9. Now the fool seeks to return
to the past
Copy !req
10. and undo the future that is Aku.
Copy !req
11. Destroy him.
Copy !req
12. No, I will not fight you today.
Copy !req
13. Oh!
Copy !req
14. I don't feel good.
Copy !req
15. Father?
Copy !req
16. Mother?
Copy !req
17. Not too smart, is it?
Copy !req
18. Going out into a blizzard
with just a funny robe and sandals?
Copy !req
19. You could catch
your death out there or, worse.
Copy !req
20. The storm should pass by tomorrow.
Copy !req
21. You can rest here till then.
Copy !req
22. Here. This will give you
your strength back.
Copy !req
23. Thank you.
Copy !req
24. You are very kind.
Copy !req
25. It's okay.
Just be careful next time.
Copy !req
26. That weather out there is no joke.
Copy !req
27. We've been mining up here
for the last five years.
Copy !req
28. We've managed to mine
these three priceless stones.
Copy !req
29. One more, we can retire
and leave this blasted mountain.
Copy !req
30. Will you stop with
the showing off?
Copy !req
31. Pretty soon, the whole mountain's
gonna know about those.
Copy !req
32. No need to worry, my friends.
Copy !req
33. Your secret is safe with me.
Copy !req
34. I owe you both my life.
Copy !req
35. What's with your hand there?
Copy !req
36. I don't know.
Copy !req
37. It will not come off.
Copy !req
38. You better get some rest.
Copy !req
39. You sure you don't need anything?
Copy !req
40. No. Thank you.
Copy !req
41. I will be fine.
Copy !req
42. Brave kid.
Copy !req
43. Not too smart, but, brave.
Copy !req
44. It is still very cold.
Copy !req
45. Help!
Copy !req
46. Help!
Copy !req
47. Help...
Copy !req
48. He-elp.
Copy !req
49. Can I help you?
Copy !req
50. Boy, am I glad to see you.
Copy !req
51. I thought I'd never get out of here.
Copy !req
52. There I was, just checking out the view,
Copy !req
53. and it is beautiful,
mind you,
Copy !req
54. when suddenly the floor started
to give way beneath me.
Copy !req
55. Luckily, this rope...
Copy !req
56. Are you okay?
Copy !req
57. I'm fine.
How are you doing?
Copy !req
58. I am sorry.
Must have slipped.
Copy !req
59. No problem.
Don't even worry about it.
Copy !req
60. But, if you could pull me up soon,
Copy !req
61. that would be good, too.
Copy !req
62. And why should I?
Copy !req
63. What's in it for me, huh?
Copy !req
64. Uh, I'll give you anything you want.
Copy !req
65. Just don't drop me, please.
Copy !req
66. Drop you? I will save you.
Copy !req
67. Huh?
Copy !req
68. Okay, so what do you want?
Copy !req
69. I do not want anything.
Copy !req
70. Except everything you've got.
Copy !req
71. I will accept nothing
for only doing what is right.
Copy !req
72. You're gonna pay,
or, I shall drop you.
Copy !req
73. No, do not worry.
I will pull you up.
Copy !req
74. Come on.
Give me some money.
Copy !req
75. Please, we must hurry
before the rope breaks.
Copy !req
76. Uh, you know, never mind.
Copy !req
77. I... I think I'm just
going to stay here for a while
Copy !req
78. and check out
the view some more.
Copy !req
79. Are you certain?
Copy !req
80. Oh, um, yeah.
Copy !req
81. Very well,
if that is what you desire.
Copy !req
82. But, it's pretty stupid,
if you ask me.
Copy !req
83. I think
Copy !req
84. you
Copy !req
85. owe me an apology.
Copy !req
86. I said,
Copy !req
87. you owe me an apology.
Copy !req
88. I'm gonna give you until
the count of three.
Copy !req
89. One.
Copy !req
90. Two.
Copy !req
91. Three.
Copy !req
92. I feel so...
Copy !req
93. I feel...
Copy !req
94. stronger!
Copy !req
95. Aah! No! No!
Copy !req
96. This cannot be happening.
Copy !req
97. Oh, yes, it can.
Copy !req
98. Must keep control.
Copy !req
99. Yeah! Got to get a grip.
Copy !req
100. Need help.
Copy !req
101. The monks. I...
Copy !req
102. I've got to find those accursed monks.
Copy !req
103. Must find...
Copy !req
104. Yes?
Copy !req
105. I am Jack.
Copy !req
106. Oh, yes.
Copy !req
107. We have been awaiting
your arrival for many days.
Copy !req
108. The master was worried
an ill fate had befallen you.
Copy !req
109. Please, this way.
Copy !req
110. Master Ning,
Copy !req
111. I am sorry to disturb
your meditation,
Copy !req
112. But, Jack,
he has arrived.
Copy !req
113. Ah, yes, the wandering Samurai.
Copy !req
114. We were worried about you.
Copy !req
115. We began to wonder if your quest
had ended.
Copy !req
116. But, we are glad you are with us now.
Copy !req
117. Again, we extend our invitation.
Copy !req
118. We believe the pool of convergence
may be of use to you.
Copy !req
119. All factors of time
and existence converge here
Copy !req
120. and form
an inter-dimensional nexus,
Copy !req
121. which we gaze into to study
Copy !req
122. the infinite facets of reality.
Copy !req
123. We have never attempted
a physical journey,
Copy !req
124. but, with proper conditioning,
Copy !req
125. you would be able
to step into this crossroads
Copy !req
126. and find your way home.
Copy !req
127. You seem weary,
brother Jack.
Copy !req
128. Come.
Copy !req
129. The purity of our spring
will refresh you.
Copy !req
130. Come, come.
Copy !req
131. Tell us of your quest.
Copy !req
132. What is it you seek?
Copy !req
133. I...
Copy !req
134. I seek...
Copy !req
135. I seek to foil the Samurai,
Copy !req
136. to destroy his dream of returning home,
Copy !req
137. and to destroy all
who stand in my way.
Copy !req
138. No!
Copy !req
139. Brothers, the pool!
Copy !req
140. Huh?
Copy !req
141. Ah, yes, slaughtering pathetic whelps
Copy !req
142. is the perfect way to loosen up
Copy !req
143. before I really
Copy !req
144. desecrate things.
Copy !req
145. Aah!
Copy !req
146. Aah!
Copy !req
147. Stop!
Copy !req
148. Huh?
Copy !req
149. Forgive me.
Copy !req
150. Be strong, my son.
Copy !req
151. You are gravely ill.
Copy !req
152. Aku's very essence
is creeping through your veins,
Copy !req
153. possessing your body,
Copy !req
154. poisoning your mind.
Copy !req
155. It means to devour your spirit.
Copy !req
156. Please...
Copy !req
157. Help me.
Copy !req
158. I beg you.
Copy !req
159. We are doing what we can
to stave the illness of the flesh,
Copy !req
160. but we can only slow the sickness.
Copy !req
161. You have been infected by pure evil,
Copy !req
162. which can only be purged
by the light of good,
Copy !req
163. the good within you.
Copy !req
164. I...
Copy !req
165. I cannot.
Copy !req
166. You must help me.
Copy !req
167. I am sorry.
Copy !req
168. This is a sickness
only you can truly cure.
Copy !req
169. No.
Copy !req
170. You must. You...
Copy !req
171. You worthless, wrinkled grub.
Copy !req
172. I'll have you for dinner, you worm.
Copy !req
173. I'll eat every last monk
in this hole.
Copy !req
174. I'll devour you all
Copy !req
175. just as I have consumed
the Samurai.
Copy !req
176. Cannot fight it.
Copy !req
177. Not alone.
Copy !req
178. Cannot do it alone.
Copy !req
179. You are not alone, my son.
Copy !req
180. We are always with you here...
Copy !req
181. Here in your heart...
Copy !req
182. The place we will make our stand
against this evil.
Copy !req
183. But, I was not there for you.
Copy !req
184. Nonsense.
Copy !req
185. Aku's victories are not your failures.
Copy !req
186. The struggle against Aku
is arduous,
Copy !req
187. and none have fought
more bravely than you, my son.
Copy !req
188. You have won
many victories,
Copy !req
189. rekindling hope in the hearts
of those you have protected.
Copy !req
190. Each sends their blessing.
Copy !req
191. Each blessing,
Copy !req
192. a stone to fortify this land.
Copy !req
193. Your castle is strong, my son.
Copy !req
194. Your allies are many.
Copy !req
195. Wield what lies within
Copy !req
196. and reclaim what is yours.
Copy !req
197. Break this siege of darkness.
Copy !req
198. Master Ning,
Copy !req
199. how can you forgive one
Copy !req
200. who has raised his sword
against you
Copy !req
201. and defiled your sanctuary so?
Copy !req
202. Although, the pool of convergence
is destroyed,
Copy !req
203. the Nexus still exists.
Copy !req
204. In time,
we will reconstruct the gateway.
Copy !req
205. As for you,
Copy !req
206. had you not defeated
the demon within,
Copy !req
207. it surely would have
destroyed us all.
Copy !req
208. We owe you our lives.
Copy !req
209. My son, all debts are paid.
Copy !req
210. All, but one.
Copy !req
211. I said, get off your fat tochis
Copy !req
212. and get the ladder,
you lazy bum.
Copy !req
213. Oh, don't yell at me.
Copy !req
214. I didn't steal the gems, eh?
Copy !req
215. I... I think you better
come out here.
Copy !req
