You still don't believe this? That's crazy.

I like this young man. You, hmm.

So the mirror is broken?

Well. Now come on ya'll. It's tea time.

Now. In the 13th century, a group of knights, known

as the hunters, attempted to destroy the mirror.

Ugh.

The evil in the mirror fought back.

The best that the hunters could do

was to break off four shards.

Now, four of the hunters, each took a shard, concealed

them in vessels and rode off in different directions.

A fifth hunter took the mirror itself.

And all would've been concealed ever since.

So, why did our parents go after it?

Well, word has come, that

the Krugen is strong again.

And they desire to make the mirror whole.

The fake interpol cops said they were

looking for three shards, not four.

That means that the

Krugen already have one.

It is your destiny.

Youmuststop, the Krugen!

No!

No, we have to find mom and dad.

And then, we can recover

the shards and stop the Krugen.

Well, the order in which you do

this is your choice of course.

Dr. Kramer do you know where

the other three shards are?

One.

You've been storing a shard?

We are all just vessels, dear boy.

How do we find the others?

Mmm. You start by believing what you hear.

This is a very special crystal.

I picked this one particularly because...

Right!

Tell me.

Who is the leader of the Krugen?

Quickly!

You must go and find

the other shards before the Krugen.

We're not gonna leave you.

Just go. I can handle this one.

Go, go. We gotta go. Come on.

Carter?

Come in.

Here's the plan.

Find my folks. Save the world.

Save the world and find your folks.

If we do the other way

around, it may be too late.

Do you guys hear anything?

No.

This sucker's vibrating.

I don't hear anything.

Me neither.

That's 'cuz you're old.

Excuse me?

Not old, old. Just... old.

You know, the younger you are,

the more frequencies you can hear.

That's just the way it is.

So what?

So? Remember what Kramer said?

He said we could find the other

shards If I believe what I was hearing.

I'm telling you.

I'm hearing this sucker vibrate!

What are those numbers?

It's the frequency on which's vibrating in.

Those are map coordinates.

That's why Kramer chose this

specific crystal to leave with the shard.

Rocky Mountains.

That's where the next shard is.

Wait.

We can't go there.

Our parents are in Thailand.

We have to go there, we have to save them.

No. We have to go get the shard.

That's what a true hunter would do.

Well maybe we're not

true hunters, right Pax?

Tripp, as much as it pains

me to agree with her.

Dylan's right.

If the Krugen get those shards...

Mom and Dad may be the

least of our problems.

I remember what they always said.

Sometimes you have to what?

Sometimes you have to make the hard choice.

Exactly. Now, I wanna see them

again just as badly as you do.

But going after the shards instead

of Mom and Dad, that is the hard choice.

That's what they want us to do.

Give me your wallet.

For what?

Just do it.

I'm getting us tickets

on the next flight to Denver.

Listen very closely.

Because this next part is very important.

I don't care what you have to do.

Who you have to hurt.

Those Flynn boys now have a shard.

I want it.

You must be hungry

I've been hungrier.

Is Carter with you? I can order more food.

Carter's missing. Where are my boys?

Last I heard, on a plane to Colorado.

They're fine.

By the way, I'm very

impressed with your boys.

Always have been.

Oh please! I'm unarmed.

There's nobody else here, just

you and me, two old friends talking.

Eat something.

You took an oath.

Same day Carter and I did.

Oh yes. The famous hunter's oath.

Find and protect.

Never use.

When I was a boy, my father

repeated that oath over and over.

We find and protect these items.

He told me we never use them.

He gave everything to the hunters.

Everything.

I know what happened to your father.

Did you know what he was

hunting on his last mission?

The Grail Cup.

A cup that heals.

The very end when he

was wounded and laying

on the ground he was

holding it in his hands.

The one thing in the world

that could've saved him.

I begged him to drink from it.

Do you know what he said to me?

Find and protect, never use.

Those were his last words.

That was the day I told you and

Carter I was no longer a hunter.

Then we've respected your

decision, didn't we?

We wiped you clear on the records.

Nobody remembers what you used to be.

But your father was right. These

objects do not belong to us.

They belong to all of us.

You're insane.

Friends don't call friends names.

I know what the mirror does Jordyn.

Look into it and gain your deepest desire.

Yes it's drugged.

We're talking about a magic mirror and the

one thing you decided to eat is that apple.

Am I the only one who sees the irony here?

My deepest desire is to have

ultimate power because only then

will I be able to make sure the hunters

vanish into history where they belong.

All of them.

Load her under the plane.

Wheels up in 30 minutes.

Yes, sir.

What are you surprised about?

Your parents never told

you you were hunters?

Being a hunter is your birth right.

Powers are passed down

from parents to children.

Powers? What kind of powers?

Not literal powers, Tripp.

We're not that special.

Well, speak for yourself.

A hunter's strength comes

from his or her family.

Each family is known for

a particular quality.

Mine, the Savinni Clan, is

known for their loyalty.

Um, you have the Bannami Clan,

they're known for resourcefulness

and the Hesters, for secrecy.

And what about the Flynns?

Perseverance. Flynns never give up.

Knew it.

Sorry if I refuse to be classified

by some people who've never met me.

Paxton doesn't believe

in the power of family.

Okay, that's not true.

How is sailing across the

ocean alone about family?

I call that running away.

It's about doing something awesome.

Okay, yeah but it's something ground

breaking you're not helping anybody.

Okay but yeah, you are awesome,

you're cool, yadda-yadda-yadda.

You think it's easy. I'd

like to see you try it.

I would.

I would if I was invited.

But you're always too cool for me.

Guys, heads up.

Guys!

Yeah.

Turn here.

Wait. Tripp.

Uh.

Uh. Now what?

Now we climb.

Great.

We'll let them find the

shard, then move in.

No sense in getting our hands

dirty if we don't have to.

Alright.

It's around here somewhere.

Hey guys, look!

Petroglyphs?

Pictographs! Petroglyphs

were carved, not painted.

Don't know the difference between

pictographs and petroglyphs.

Seriously?

Okay. Keep movin'. They go that way.

It looks safe.

I got this.

Tripp, think!

How was I supposed to

think that would happen?

At least he deactivated the trap.

Seems that way

You guys coming?

Women right?

Not all women. Just her.

What is that?

It's the story of the mirror.

How?

It's a warning.

Telling people not to look into the mirror.
