Samurai Jack s01e10 Episode Script
Jack and the Lava Monster
Come.
Come.
Come.
Come to me.
Come.
Who is there? Come.
Come.
Come.
Show yourself.
Come to me.
Coward.
Come.
Come to me.
Something evil has ravaged these lands.
A very familiar evil.
Yes.
Come to me.
Come.
Come.
Come.
Come.
The voice beckons me further in.
Surely he takes me for a fool to follow deeper into his trap.
A fool I be! Come.
Welcome to your doom.
Many warriors have been lured here to their end.
Why have you done this? My purpose is to battle.
Yes.
At last, after all these years, a worthy opponent.
Enough of this pointless battle.
I will continue to fight you no more.
I say thee nay! No! I will not do battle with you for your amusement.
There is no honor in it.
Honor? What do thee know of honor? A millennium hath passed, and now my goal is within my grasp.
This battle will continue to the end.
I said, I will not fight you, monster.
I shall not be denied! Strike me down if you must but I will not fight.
Nay.
I cannot strike the defenseless.
This battle must be concluded by the warrior's code.
I beg thee.
Rise, unsheathe your sword, continue this fight.
- Why? - For freedom.
The master of this kingdom of rock is just a man.
A cursed man trapped in a rock body.
It happened long ago.
So long ago now.
'Twas once a time where I, too, was a man.
A mighty warrior like thee.
I have engraved a recording of my past so that I would never forget the life I had, the man I was so thy people would not be lost to the dust of time.
Let me take thee on a journey into the past.
This land 'twas not always parched and burnt.
Once, a beautiful city thrived in the lush countryside.
'Twas truly a sight to behold.
A jewel of all the northern lands.
My happiness was a beautiful family of a wife, two sons and a faithful canine.
Times were good, game was plentiful, and my people prospered.
'Twas on return from a successful hunting trip when an omen appeared.
A black moon blocked out the sun.
It grew and grew, until it ate the sky and land.
The darkness now loomed over my kingdom.
A horrible monster, born from within the darkness, attacked.
My army retaliated.
But our efforts were to no avail.
'Twere I alone who was left to destroy the monster.
My weapons were worthless.
My attempts to avenge amused the monster and he struck me down.
I lay before him, ready to battle for the last time.
But the villain did not destroy me.
Nay, the fate dealt to me was much more cruel.
He imprisoned me within an unbreakable crystal denying me a warrior's end.
Helpless was I as the beast destroyed what was left of my beloved kingdom.
Then he came for me again.
'Twas his enjoyment that day to punish me for eternity.
Thrust me, he did, into the core of the mountain.
'Twas his plan for me to spend all of eternity in the mountain never to join my fallen comrades in Valhalla the resting place of all great warriors.
Through countless eons I laid still but my will was strong.
I found a way to manipulate the material around me.
Out of the rock, I formed the body thou seest before thee.
Then I created a passage so full of peril and danger that only the greatest of warriors can pass.
For, you see, the only entry into Valhalla is to fall in combat to another warrior.
And thou are the only one to survive.
As written, the truth has been told.
My fate is at your mercy.
Prepare yourself.
At last, the gates of Valhalla open to me.
Rise, warrior! Rise! Honorably I must be defeated.
I cannot let up.
Do not worry.
I have only begun to fight.
After all these years my freedom has arrived.
Accursed monster, your spell is broken! I am free! At last, my flesh is restored.
The curse is lifted.
Warrior.
I I Don't worry, my friend.
Please, hand me my sword.
Thank you.
Come.
Come.
Come to me.
Come.
Who is there? Come.
