Tuck Everlasting Page #5

You have to stop them, please!

Help!

They'll kill me if they find me!

Please, they're going

to kill me, please!

Stay right there!

I'll handle this.

Hurry!

Help!

Come out and meet your doom!

Hell is upon you!

Stop right there!

You're under arrest!

Come on, we have to hurry.

The boys are outside.

Stay back, now!

I'll shoot!

My dear, sweet Winnie.

What I wouldn't do to keep you.

I wish you were ours...

for Jesse.

For all of us.

You have to hurry

and get away from here.

Winnie...

Winnie, come with me.

There's nothing for you here.

We can be together forever.

If she comes with us,

they'll hunt us down.

They'll never stop looking.

Tuck is right.

If I go with you

it'll be too dangerous

for all of you.

I can't go without you.

You have to.

Go back to the spring.

Drink from it.

When it's safe...

I'll come back for you.

Will you?

I have to show you

the Eiffel Tower, don't I?

1,652 steps to the top.

Winnie...

until we're together again...

wake up with the dawn.

I will.

We got to go...

before it's too late.

Winnie Foster...

I will love you

till the day I die!

She's going fast

but you can have a couple

of minutes with her.

How are you?

"...and to Almighty God

"we commend the soul

of our sister

"and we commit her body

to the ground.

Earth to earth, ashes to ashes,

dust to dust..."

"...Resurrection

into eternal life

"through our Lord Jesus Christ;

"at whose coming in glorious

Majesty to judge the World

"the Earth and the Sea

shall give up their Dead;

"and the corruptible bodies

of those who sleep in him

"shall be changed, and made like

unto his own glorious Body;

"according to the mighty working

whereby he is able

to subdue

all things unto himself."

Mother?

I was just wondering

what it is about these woods

you love so much.

Mother, are you all right?

I'm going to miss her, too.

Oh...

Every time I look at you,

you're different.

I'm losing you, too.

I'm right here.

Forgive me, Winnie.

I just wanted to keep you

my little girl forever.

Go back to the spring.

When it's safe,

I'll come back for you.

ANGUS:

What we Tucks have,

you can't call it living.

We just... are.

We're like rocks stuck

at the side of a stream.

The first weeks of summer

were long over.

There was a feeling

that the wheel

was turning again...

... slowly now,

but soon to go faster.

Winnie and her family

left Treegap to see the world.

She wasn't certain

what herjourney might bring

but this much she knew...

it would be something

of her own choosing.

For some, time passes slowly.

An hour can seem an eternity.

For others,

there's never enough.

For Jesse Tuck,

it didn't exist.

Tuck said it to Winnie

the summer she turned 15:

Do not fear death,

but rather the unlived life.

You don't have to live forever.

You just have to live.

And she did.
