Princess Mononoke Page #4

- Somebody cut her off.

- She's headed for the forge!

Keep stoking those fires! Riflemen to the

stockade. We've got her right where we want her.

A weapon for every man!

Everyone defends Irontown!

Toki, she's on the roof.

Now, don't get excited.

Keep those bellows working.

Whatever happens, we can't

let those fires go out.

- Is she alone?

- Yes.

She can't escape.

We have her cornered.

You know she means

to kill you this time.

We'll see about that.

Come on.

- Get a weapon!

- Move! Move!

Make room for milady!

Can you hear me,

Princess of Beasts?

If it's me you want,

here I am.

If you seek revenge for

all the animals we've killed,

well, there are two women down

here whom I'd like you to meet.

They want revenge as well for

husbands killed by your wolves.

Come on out, you little witch!

My husband's dead because of you!

Huh?

There she is!

- It's her!

- There she is!

Everybody out of the way!

Riflemen, get ready to fire!

It's a trap. No! Wait!

Princess of the wolf gods! Don't go

down there! Go back to the forest!

Listen to me, please!

Don't throw your life away!

- Shall I stop him?

- Leave him be. Let him do what he likes.

She's down! We got her!

Stay back.

Cut off a wolf s head,

and it still has the power to bite.

What?

- Take aim where she falls.

- Right.

Open fire.

Yeah!

No! Stay back!

Oh! What the devil was that?

Wake up.

No!

- Skin her!

- Kill her, milady! Kill her!

- Are you all right, sir? Can I help you?

- I'm fine. Fine.

Get away from me!

- Begone!

- Yes, sir!

Huh?

Traitor! You're a spy

for the wolves, aren't you?

Stay back!

Oh! Halt!

Step aside.

- What do you think you're doing, boy?

- Stay your hand.

The girl's life is now mine.

I'm sure she'll make

a lovely wife for you.

There's a demon inside of you.

It's inside both of you.

Look, everyone!

This is what hatred looks like.

This is what it does

when it catches hold of you.

It's eating me alive,

and very soon now it will kill me!

Fear and anger only

make it grow faster.

I'm getting a little bored of

this curse of yours, Ashitaka.

Let me just cut

the damn thing off.

Lady Eboshi!

Someone come here

and take her from me.

Milady!

Don't worry. She's just

stunned. She'll be all right.

Lady Eboshi?

As for me, I'm leaving,

and I'm taking the Wolf Girl!

Oh, no, you're not!

Nobody treats my Lady Eboshi like that!

Move and I fire!

Kiyo, what are you doing?

How can he

still be walking?

- Is she all right?

- Yes, milady's safe, sir.

Someone bring me my gun! Riflemen

to the square now, on the double!

They're not getting

out of here alive!

Toki, come here.

What? What's happened?

Sir, I can't let you pass.

The gate's been ordered shut.

It can't be opened.

Turn back, please.

We're grateful to you for bringing

those men back to us.

- We don't want to hurt you.

- Please!

I walked in through this gate this morning.

Now I'm going to leave the same way.

Don't be a fool.

It takes ten men to open this gate.

Stop it! You'll kill yourself.

Huh?

Out of the way!

The wolves are attacking!

Flint!

She's all right!

Your princess is safe with me!

Stay and I will bring her!

Come on, Yakul.

You have my thanks.

Good luck, stranger.

Stop it!

Leave him!

He's mine!

Oof.

His own people shot him.

He's dying.

Why did you stop me from killing her?

Tell me while you're still alive.

I didn't want them to kill you.

That's why.

I'm not afraid to die. I'd do anything

to get you humans out of my forest.

I knew that from

the first moment I saw you.

And I'm not afraid of you!

I should kill you for saving her!

That woman is evil, and there's no one

who can stop me from killing her.

No. Live.

That's enough! I'm not

listening to you anymore!

You're beautiful.

What is it, San?

Want me to crunch his face off?

The ape tribe.

All right!

What do you want here?

Apes, how dare you show such

disrespect to the wolf clan.

This is our forest.

The human-

give him to us.

Give us the human and go.

You go before

my fangs find you.

- We will not go.

- We will eat the human.

Yes, let us eat

the man creature.

Are you crazy? Just what happened to

make the ape tribe change this way?

Since when do apes

eat the flesh of a man?

If we eat the human,

we will steal his strength,

and we will drive

the other humans away.

Give us

the man creature.

Stop this. You know you can't possess

the humans' strength by eating them.

All that'll do is make you

into something else,

something even worse

than human.

We plant trees. Humans tear them up.

The forest does not come back.

If we kill the humans,

we will save the forest.

You mustn't give up. We'll find a way.

The Forest Spirit is with us.

Go on planting your trees

and someday we'll beat them.

The Forest Spirit will not fight.

We will all die.

Wolf Girl does not care.

She is human.

Enough!

I'll bite your head off,

you chattering ape.

Stop! Wait! Come back!

Leave them alone!

Don't worry about them.

It's all right.

You two go on ahead now.

I'll stay here and deal with the human.

- What about the elk?

- Yes.

Can we eat him?

No, you may not.

Go home!

Come over here.

Don't worry. I'm a friend.

Don't be shy. I won't hurt you.

I need you to help me carry him.

Please?

You are very wise. You know better than

to set foot on this island, don't you?

Ugh! I smell like a human.

You can go wherever you want to.

You're free now.

Finally.

There he is.

Come and see. Hurry.

Quick, you idiots.

It's the Nightwalker.

He's the reason we've been sitting around

in these stinking animal skins, you know.

But sir, we can't.

It's a sin to look at it.

Ha. And you call yourself

the greatest hunter in the west.

Look. We've got a letter

of pardon from the Emperor,

forgiving us for cutting off the head

of the Great Forest Spirit.

The legends tell us that

when day becomes night,

the Forest Spirit turns

into the Nightwalker,

and at sunrise,

it changes back.

Look! See there?

It's happening.

- Take a look, MasterJigo.

- What is it?

- Over there.

- Hmph.

Look. There must be hundreds of them.

Those boars are not

from this region.

They must have been traveling for months

to get all the way up here.

- That one's Okkoto!

- Can't be.

They say he died

It's him, all right.

I know those old tusks.

And it looks like he brought

along his whole tribe.

He's seen us!

Let's get out of here!

Come on, you cowards!

Move! Quickly!

The bullet wound's gone.

Yakul.

The mark's still there.

Finally you're awake.

You really should thank Yakul. He hasn't

left your side this whole time.

How'd you know his name's Yakul?

He told me,

and he told me about you-

about your village,

your people and your forest.

The Forest Spirit brought you back

to life again. He wants you to live.

I had the strangest dream.

- There was a golden creature.

- Eat this.

Chew.

We are here to kill the humans

and save the forest.

Why are there
