InuYasha the Movie 2: The Castle Beyond the Looking Glass Page #3

I am in a hurry,

so please excuse me.

Oww!

What a guy! He won't survive

in these times.

Help yourself.

Thanks!

Lately, the full moon has

not waned.

Don't I know it.

My comrades have been

up partying every night.

Actually, this phenomenon

occurred fifty years ago too.

Fifty years ago?

My grandfather, the Head Monk Miyatsu,

put under seal,

an evil demon which made the full moon

appear night after night.

Evil? You mean, Naraku?

He is dead.

Which means...the Wind Tunnel in

your right palm is gone?

Yes. It is.

And so, Hachi...

I've been thinking about

going to see it.

Is that why you

summoned me?

No one minds if there's

a full moon every night.

Grandfather Miyatsu

wrote this in his will...

She stops time with

her undisturbed mind

and destroys all

living beings.

You will come with me,

won't you Hachi?

Hey, Miroku...Will this raccoon-dog

be of any use?

Rest assured.

Hachi has unquestionable loyalty.

Hah! As if!

Who'd take on such

a dangerous job?

So you will not heed

my request?

Hah! Without your Wind Tunnel,

who's scared of you?!

Let's take a short walk

and talk, shall we?

We'll be right back.

Yes... Go easy now.

What's the matter? Come.

Poor thing.

Now listen up!

I've been real good to you!!

Hachi has kindly agreed

to accompany me.

Well then, be careful,

both of you.

Yes!

Yessir... I'll go wherever

you tell me to go.

A full moon again.

What's happening?

Huh?

What's this...?

Kohaku?

You feel well enough

to get up?

Where are we?

The village of the Demon Slayers.

Our homeland.

Homeland?

I see. You still don't

remember everything, do you?

I'm sorry, Miss Sango.

It's okay.

Don't worry about it.

Naraku is dead...

Yet you're still not free, are you?

Free from the painful memory of

killing Father and the others...

Sister...

Kohaku?

What did you just call me...?

That's the only word that I recall...

once in a while.

But...

Then I feel the pain.

Like my heart is being crushed.

It's okay, don't try too hard.

Take your time and remember.

Kirara?

Kagura!

You're not here to take Kohaku back?

All I want is the Swallow's Cowrie Shell

which he possesses.

We were both freed

from Naraku.

So let's be friends, okay?

Hand it over quietly

and you'll live.

Kohaku, get the Hiraikotsu.

'Kay!

Dance of the Dragon!

-Here it is-

-Get inside!

Kohaku!

I'm taking this!

How is your leg?

Never mind me...

But the Swallow's Cowrie Shell...

Just what is that?

If that gets into their hands...

Then what?

The seal will be broken.

Master Miroku...

Is this grave...

Yes, it has to be the grave of

my grandfather, Monk Miyatsu.

Excuse me...

Did you know Master Miyatsu?

Five Lakes of Fuji, Lake Sai

Time has swiftly passed

As I have waited to see

this shell you promised

They say that I wait in vain

Now could this be truly so?

Just one more...

The Stone Bowl of Buddha...

I wonder if there will be another

full moon tonight.

That would work out fine with me!

Great! I've never tasted

anything so good.

Where are you headed, Hojo?

I cannot reveal that

to strangers.

Actually, I am on my way

to Mount Fuji

to throw the robe

into the crater.

Robe?

You mean the Celestial Robe?

Exactly.

The robe was entrusted to

the Hojo family generations ago.

It belonged to an immortal

celestial being.

And our family has

cherished it as our treasure.

But one day, a very high-ranking

monk came with this warning...

When the bright full moon

continues for many nights,

throw the robe into the mouth

of Mount Fuji crater and let it burn.

Otherwise, great calamity

will fall upon the land.

And these several nights,

the full moon has continued.

The monk's prediction

has come true.

The robe must be

destroyed as soon as possible.

Hah! The story stinks!

If what the monk said is true,

what kind of calamity's gonna happen?

Well, I don't know... Oh!

The moon...and a celestial robe...

That's the story of

Princess Kaguya.

Under the full moon, celestial maidens

came for her and put on a robe...

What? Kaguya?

She did reek of disaster...

A dead priestess who lives

off the souls of the dead...

You always look so gloomy.

Answer me... Is this all

Naraku's doing?

Still concerned about a

dead guy like that?

Dead?

What's the matter?

Won't you accept it?

It's what you seek.

You're awfully nonchalant about this.

I'm not like you.

Geez, you're a creepy woman.

But well, this is the last of it.

I owe you.

There is a frightening saying

that has been passed down

in this village.

One day, a celestial maiden was

bathing in a spring by the village.

A man who saw her

stole the Celestial Robe

that was hanging on a

tree branch.

I know that story!

The man who stole the robe

and the celestial maiden were married.

The story in the village

is different...

The heavenly being whose robe

was stolen became mad with fury

and slew innocent villagers

one after another.

By a stroke of luck, Monk Miyatsu

came upon this village

and sealed the maiden inside

a mirror known as the Mirror of Life.

Was she really a celestial being?

Or a demon disguised as one?

But I've heard that the robe stolen

by the man was real.

Does this Celestial Robe

still exist in this village?

No... No one knows where it is now.

What about this Mirror of Life

inside which the maiden was sealed?

It was placed on the altar

with a divine sprig.

In the Forest of Illusion

in the Shrine of the Mirror of Life.

Five Lakes of Fuji, Lake Kawaguchi

I hoped there would be

the glow of the fallen dew-

But nothing I can see

So why did you go yonder

to the Mount of Ogura

The moon seen through

a physical body is truly beautiful.

You promised.

So let me have this

true freedom.

- No...

- Huh?

There is one more thing I need.

Look...

Princess Kaguya made all

her suitors undertake rigorous tasks.

And there's mention of

cloth from a fire-rat.

Huh?

See...

The Jeweled Sprig of Horai

The Crystal from the Dragon's Neck

The Stone Bowl of Buddha

The Swallow's Cowrie Shell

and the Robe of the Fire-rat.

That's why Kaguya came

after your kimono.

Nice cozy twosome, huh?

Unrequited love...

What? You're in love with Kagome?

When I first glimpsed Miss Kagome

through the steamy mist...

I thought it was a celestial being

from heaven.

Hmm...

So you were the peeping Tom!

Hush! Don't ever say that aloud!

Then you will be my servant

from this instant!

Huh?

Say...

Maybe this Princess Kaguya in

the legend

didn't really want to

return to the moon.

Huh? What're talking about?

A shooting star!

Make a wish!

Inuyasha...

Huh?

Do you still want to

become a full demon?

'Course!

You're awfully strong already.

Hah! Be quiet, will ya!

I made up my mind

to become a full demon.

So don't say anything more.

But...I've been thinking...

there's nothing wrong...

with you remaining a half-demon.

I like you just the way you are.

Ridiculous!

What do you mean ridiculous?!

Can't you be a little serious?
