Yee nadlooshi - The Navajo

term for 'Skinwalker'

Human beings, who, through

the blood of other humans...

have gained supernatural powers.

Some call it a gift - others a curse.

A war has begun - between those who

mean to end the curse,

and those who do not want

to lose their beastly powers.

According to the indian legend,

the end of all Skinwalkers...

will be brought about by a 13 year old boy.

There are some things in this world

so frightening...

that we pretend

they don't exist...

the stuff of nightmares...

we tell ourselves...

there no such thing...

but the truth is

they are out there...

and closer then we fear...

Silver bullets

Nice touch

now caretaker...

it looks like your out of a job...

you and your people have

been defending...

these pathetic creatures

for a long time

but it will all be over soon enough

we'll attack each of these camps

and destroy them...

and this disgrace to our true nature

will be over forever

what was on the tape?

you'll never find the boy in time...

now...

it can't be...

it already began...

the legend is true...

where is the boy?

tell me...

not in this lifetime

hurry.

gather your men

we have four days

to full moon

take this to Varek

he goes north...

tel him there's no time to lose

you find this boy or

it's the end of us

you can see for yourself...

the boy is safe...

but with the red moon

we should be ready for anything

just to make sure

you be careful

the red moon's power will be very strong

you will have to lock down

until this is over

I've gotta go, good luck and stay sharp

he's gonna make it

we all are

this isn't a dream anymore

four more days

well that's good news

the bad news is now y'all gotta

to spend the night downstairs

It's probably just a fuse

I'll be right back

Ralph

Ralph

Varek...

oh my God

Tell me when Varek

and the're all dead

so it's true

the boy's alive

where is he?

don't hurt him

that's not what I want...

if you co-operate with us,

then you will be spared

along with your husband

if you choose otherwise then you will be

forced to watch him suffer

in agony allowing you one last look

at the life that you elected to end

do you understand?

good

now...

where is the child?

we don't know

we never have

she's f***ing lying

they gotta know, Varek...

you think we hadn't thought

of something like this

of someone like you

do you think you're a martyr

you might as well be holding the blade

no...

no...

this everything is?

that's it

you believe her

it doesn't make any sense,

it is not possible Varek

it makes perfect sense...

they can't tell us what

they don't know...

no matter what we do to them

it's foolproof

the're dying for some kid

the've never even seen?

they have faith...

it's all they need

think of something

this kid is out there

I'd rather die then go back to that

we'll find the child

there's no alternative

we'll find him Sonya

You can't even see the kid's face...

so that's how they did it

boosted the morale

without risking a thing

we're wasting our time Varek...

we only have four more nights

to find this kid

so

wait...

did you see that?

what?

right there

look at the mirror

Huguenun...

Come on baby breathe

please, just breathe

Will he can't breathe. I gave him a shot

this morning. I don't understand

The inhaler doesn't help

he just keeps getting worse and worse

Rachel, he's going to be OK

Tim...

I want you to breathe deep

and don't move...

Come on sweeetie

what is it?

it smells like crap

hey baby

are you OK?

do you want to see something freaky?

isn't that awesome?

did you have another bad dream?

no, I'm fine

come here you

let's snuggle

I love you mom

I love you too baby...

I was worried when you weren't

there this morning

She was up most of the night

What's wrong Rachel?

I have to learn to be a mother

a good mother...

figure out what I want to do

with the rest of my life

you guys have raised him, I haven't

I'm so God damned dependent

on everyone here

I have to learn to stand

on my own two feet

he's been dead over

thirteen years now Jonas...

his ghost is all around me

every time I look at you...

Nana, Katherine...

I still see him

Come on Rachel, don't fool yourself

my brother's ghost is going to be with you

whereever you go
