AKU: Long ago, in a distant land,

I, Aku, the shape-shifting master of darkness,

unleashed an unspeakable evil.

But a foolish Samurai warrior wielding a magic sword

stepped forth to oppose me.

(SWORD CLASHING)

Before the final blow was struck,

I tore open a portal in time

and flung him into the future,

where my evil is law.

Now the fool seeks to return to the past

and undo the future that is Aku.

Hello.

Yes, yes, I have been expecting you.

I have come for--

Please, please, do not insult me.

I know why you are here.

- You do? - Of course.

Many things in life are a mystery, but I know why you are here.

Yes. I know like a mother knows its child.

For example, if the child came home crying,

the mother would know why.

That is how I know why you are here.

Please, I am here for something very important.

Of course. This I know.

You are here for what you cannot find anywhere else.

You are here to fulfill your most intimate desire.

You are here for what has been woven through time

to guide you to your home.

Yes! Is it here?

Of course.

May I present...

The Harajian rug of King Basad.

- What? - Yes.

This I know.

It is quite breathtaking.

I am sorry. I must have the wrong place.

I do not wish to purchase a rug.

What?

I was positive this was the place.

Wait! May I see that?

(GASPS)

The Ancient Scroll of the Woolies.

Yes. They said that you might be able to help me.

Of course. The Woolies are old friends.

Why did you not say so in the beginning?

But I tried...

No matter. Come, quickly.

I sense we haven't much time.

There.

The light of eternity.

Come. Sit.

There is nothing to fear.

(HUMMING)

Place your hands into the light.

(BUZZING)

The light has accepted you.

A vision is forming.

A strange structure

with a jewel inside.

Yes. Lt is what you seek.

The jewel possesses great magic.

(LOUD NOISE) Aah!

What has happened?

A warning.

Only one of pure heart may approach

and use the power of the jewel.

My mission is noble.

My heart is pure.

I have nothing to fear.

Yes. The truth you speak.

Now follow the setting sun

and the rising moon.

They will be your guide.

Aah!

Something is wrong.

It is something evil.

I cannot make the image out.

(GASPS)

ELECTRONIC VOICE: Master Aku will pay us greatly

for your destruction.

My Sword!

(GRUNTS)

What are you looking at?

(GASPS)

What the...

(GASPS)

The evil.

Yes, I know.

No, you don't understand.

It's about time.

I needed my sword.

I can see.

Who are you, and why did you help me?

Not the grateful kind, are you?

This way!

(WHISTLES)

Hurry!

- Do you know how to ride an uklah? - A what?

IKRA: It's like a camel, but different.

JACK: I know how to ride a camel.

Good.

(BLEATS AND GARGLES)

(METAL DINGS) Uklahs?

Adorable, aren't they?

Hut, hut, hut!

Hyah!

No. Hut, hut, hut.

Hut, hut, hut.

Hut, hut, hut!

(HOOF BEATS)

Who are you?

Why did you help me?

You're welcome.

My time in this land has made me harsh and rude.

Forgive me.

I did not mean to insult you.

No tears shed, Samurai.

- Jack. - What?

Samurai Jack.

It is what the people of this land have named me.

Okay.

Then let us find shelter for the night, Jack.

The night is not for riding.

I am Ikra.

I came to that place not to save you,

but to save my father.

You see, many moons ago,

my father, a great warrior,

stood against our lord and master Aku's tyranny.

But Aku was too powerful.

He made an example of my father

and entrapped him in a ring of fire.

He has been imprisoned for eternity

to pay for the crime that he committed against Aku.

Legend has it that somewhere in this desert

lays a hidden magical jewel of great power,

a power strong enough to free my father.

The creature at that store was the last survivor

of an ancient race of desert dwellers.

He, alone, knew the whereabouts of the jewel.

I have searched for him for five years.

Now with the commotion that we have caused,

I'm afraid it may take me another five years to find him,

if at all.

It is more than coincidence that our paths have crossed.

What?

Yes.

Aku's treachery is my curse, also.

But it appears that together

we will have the power to defeat the demon.

Aku's henchmen were too late.

The ancient desert dweller

showed me how to find the all-powerful jewel.

No?

Yes. We shall quest for the jewel,

and once we attain it,

we will use its power to free your father

and send me back in time to destroy Aku

And undo the years of tyranny that he has laid upon these lands.

Look. The rising moon.

The path has been set.

Our time is now.

Where as individuals we have failed,

together we will be victorious.

(BLEATING)

Hut, hut, hut.

Hut, hut, hut.

(WIND HOWLING)

(GROWLING)

(SCREAMING)

(SCREECHING)

(WHINES)

- JACK: Look. - A mirage?

JACK: It might be. But we have traveled far.

I sense we are close.

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

Water!

Our quest has ended.

The jewel.

My time on this miserable Aku-infested land

will finally be over.

Magical jewel, we have traveled through your desert.

We have overcome every treacherous obstacle.

We have been awed by its breathtaking beauty.

We have earned its respect.

We now humbly request to use your power.

Fulfill our destiny.

IKRA: What is happening?

The wizard spoke of this.

Only one of pure heart may use the power of the jewel.

It is testing us.

(EXPLOSION)

Something is wrong.

We have been deceived.

No!

There must be some mistake.

We are of pure heart.

I will not fight.

(GASPS)

You posses the power of flight?

Yes, and much more.

What is happening?

(CRASHING)

The jewel!

We have succeeded!

At long last, my quest has come to an end.

(JEWEL SHATTERS)

What have you done?

(AKU LAUGHING)

Ikra?

AKU: No, fool!

It is I,

Aku.

Yes, Samurai, you have been betrayed.

I and Ikra are one and the same.

No!

Oh, yes.

You see, I had a dream...

No, a nightmare

Of a jewel that had the power

to send you back in time.

I knew that this was no mere dream,

but a premonition.

I had to destroy this powerful jewel,

but I did not know its whereabouts.

JACK: No!

Yes, Samurai. I knew you would find it.

"Oh, my poor father trapped in a ring of fire

by mean old Aku."

Fool!

(SCREAMS)

Fight me, coward!

Soon we will fight.

But not until I find a way

to defeat you and your sword.

Now, how did you put it?

Oh, yes.

Your time on this miserable

Aku-infested land continues.

(LAUGHING)

(SCREAMING)

I will destroy you, Aku.

I swear it.
