- Have you been to the Forbidden Zone?

(loud roar)

To find out what they're doing?

- Dan!

Don't you know,

you should never step in front of a drawn bow.

Never!

What is it?

- Come on!

- You accusing us?

- Yes, I'm accusing you!

- You seen any of us going to the hen coop?

Any footprints?

Any evidence at all?

Maybe the thieves are one of your people Omar?

Yeah, you look like you put on weight.

- No eggs were missing until all of you showed up.

- [Zora] What's going on?

- He's taking us for fools!

- He's calling us thieves!

- Stop it!

(crowd cheering)

- Hey!

Just shut up!

Both of you!

(calm instrumental music)

(calm instrumental music)

- Gwyn?

- Dan?

Dan is it, is it you?

- Could someone tell me what's going on here?

- Erin, this is my sister Gwyn.

(chicken clucking)

- Tell us about the eggs Sal.

- The Warps King took most of the chickens,

now there aren't enough.

They need to lay the eggs and warm them, until they hatch.

But someone keeps taking them!

- It all started when they came!

When we agreed to help them.

- Help us?

You're the ones who needed help!

(Sky sighs)

You mean you're not gonna hear this?

- Why should he listen to you?

- He's supposed to be leading us.

- Everyone!

At the Barb camp at noon!

- Still sure you made the right choice?

Doesn't look like mister big o'l boss man to me.

- Just shut up!

The camp then, at noon.

(warriors grunting)

- You!

What are you looking at?

I saw you looking at me!

He was looking at me Shadow!

Like he was sneering.

Like he was badmouthing me with his eyes.

- (yells) Get out!

(yells) Now!

- I won't have it!

You hear me?

I want respect!

(screams) Respect!

(somber instrumental music)

(birds chirping)

- Omar, it's done now!

- No, they cheated and now they're trying to steal from us!

We can't trust a Barb,

and how can we trust Sky?

He didn't even try to listen just now!

We're better off on our own.

- But you agreed, if the Warps come,

neither of the tribes have a hope on their own.

We have to stick together,

and we have to give Sky a chance.

I've got the planting to see to.

Please Faygar, give him a chance.

- We go to Sky's meeting Omar.

And we tell him we're pulling out.

(mystical Celtic music)

(mystical Celtic music)

- [Sal] Are you coming to help?

- [Leanne] Forget it!

(mystical Celtic music)

(mystical Celtic music)

(wind howling)

- [Shadow] Do you think I should trust Flame?

- But it's not fair!

- Other people would jump at the chance

to work with the hens.

It's an important job.

- For an Ant.

I'm a Barb, it's not my job!

- It is now, okay?

You and Sal, working together to protect the hens.

Can show what Ants and Barbs can do together.

Sal makes you has to.

(calming guitar music)

(calming guitar music)

(wind howling)

- Seen one of them before?

- Yeah, before the darkness came.

The people of the Old World,

they used to use them to measure time.

- Right.

There must've been some force that made it work.

You see in the face, the regular marks?

Now look down at my stone.

- They're the same!

- Almost.

Where the shadow falls, tells you what the time is.

- How did you work it all out?

- Just tried it,

over and over.

Here's another.

When the sand's gone through, the sun's shadow

will have moved from one mark to another on the rock.

- What, how do you?

- By trying it.

- Over and over?

(Kwarli snickers)

- I've been using this to measure the night and day.

You know, the time of dark and the time of light

are now almost the same?

- Is it an omen?

- No, it means the summer's coming.

I believe there'll be a ton of storms first,

there always is.

- What makes you do this Kwarli?

- Something makes me curious, I just have to find out.

- So, if I said I may have a plan

to bring the tribes together,

would that makes you curious as well?

- [Dan] Skye, Kwarli, look!

This is my sister, Gwyn.

We found her in the forest, while we're hunting deer.

I haven't seen her in two years!

(relaxing music)

- No, you're supposed to help me protect them.

- Oh, come on Sal, just a couple.

No one would know.

We could have them with some bread.

- No!

- Fine, thought you needed some help.

- What if you had all the eggs you want everyday

for a whole week?

- A whole week?

- After the chicks have hatched.

- How long would that be?

- About the next moon, if, the hens aren't disturbed.

- Okay, till the chicks have hatched,

it's a deal.

- But we have to stop the stealing.

- Well then, let's catch a thief.

- After the day's work, most of us in the camp

was just to tired to even think of escape.

- But if it's so terrible in there?

- You don't understand, you're too tired, hungry,

scared you'll be the next one they pick on.

Because you're not expecting what they'd do if you

try to escape,

and they catch you.

(wind howling)

- So how come you made it out?

- They came around, selecting some of us,

for special work, they said.

We knew what that meant.

- What?

- They're doing something, in the Forbidden Zone,

some say they're digging for something.

No one really knows.

All we know is, no one ever comes back from there.

(machine roaring)

- When they chose me, I was so scared.

And that evening, I saw the guards

were arguing about something.

The fence was clear, so I ran.

- And just like that?

Suddenly you're big and brave

while no one else has ran before?

- Leave her alone!

Can't you see what she's been through?

Just leave her alone!

- Just cause she's your sister doesn't--

- Leave it Jag!

You're safe now Gwyn.

And you're welcome to stay.

Get your sister some food and some clothes.

Gwyn, all I ask is that you tell us anything that you

know that might help us against the Privs.

- Sure, thank you.

- Now we know, don't we?

- What?

- The Privs, they'd make us all slaves if they could.

They here for this meeting?

- Yup.

You never said if you'd help me with my plan?

- You never said what it was.

- Then I'd better tell you, hadn't I?

(crows cawing)

(door squealing)

- Come back later.

- Any news?

- News?

- From Gwyn?

- Gwyn?

Of course not!

(Flame sighs)

She needs time.

To earn their trust.

- I want to know how many,

who this stranger is,

and what he's doing here?

- But she's only just--

- I don't care!

I want to know!

(calm guitar music)

- Here's how it works.

The Warps will have to come through here.

So we build a lookout, at the front here of the Barbs' land.

And then a fallback to the river.

And a final fallback to the Ants' village.

- [Jag] Why their village?

- It's the best place to defend ourselves,

so we're gonna turn it into a fort.

- And what about here?

The camp?

- Here too.

We'll set traps all along this line,

Kwarli tells us what to build,

and we work together to build it.

- No!

- You saying it's pointless?

- Tell me your problem Omar?

- How far away is it from here to here?

I'll tell you, miles!

If the Warps come anywhere near here,

we'll never get the signal back in time!

- Yeah, we will.

Kwarli's shown me a way,

and it works.

We work together and we got a chance.

A real chance.

But it has to be together.

Zora?

- If the Ants will work with us,

then we'll work with them.

- Faygar?

- Let me see this system of Kwarli's.

See it working.

- But if it does?

- Then the Ants will work with the Barbs.

(mice squeaking)

- What really happened?

- What do you mean?

- You know what I mean.

- Did the stranger really beat Flame?

- Of course not.

- You didn't even see them fight, did you?

- You don't know what you're talking about!

Flame is the best!

- Yeah, so good he came back wounded!

- It was a scratch!

That's all.

- Then you tell me, why he's acting like someone

who knows he's lost?

(peaceful music)

(birds chirping)

- Anyone coming can be seen from this path.

It's a good place.

- And the tall tree.

- Then we'll make this the lookout point.

And with a hideout over here.

And then we'll put the traps here,

and over here.

- What's this?

- Thought you'd both wanna make the hideout?

Together.

(mice squeaking)

- He won Prince,

I know he won.

He always wins.

He beat him, he's the best.

But what if he didn't?

What if he isn't?

And everything, all the time he's mocked me,

used me,

it's just,

been the case, I never had to beat him!

(metal falling)

No!

He won!

He must've!

He must've!

(mouse squeaking)

(birds chirping)

- Now.

(chiming)

- That's how we'll do it Omar.

We flash a signal from point to point,

all the way, back through the forest,

and down the line.

- And when there's no sun?

- Show him Erin.

(Thumping of arrow)

There isn't a Barb who can't handle a bow.

- I wanna see this work Kwarli,

the mirrors and the arrows.

- You will.

Now just go back to your village with Kwarli

and get things ready there.

Then we'll start the signal coming down the line.

- And how will we know when?

- They'll both run out at the same time,

that's when he starts.

- Okay.

- You put the next trap right here.

(wind blowing)

(calm guitar music)

- [Flame] Spy on the Ants and the Barbs.

- What are you doing?

- Nothing.

Just trying to believe I'm here.

Free, with you.

- I thought you were gone Gwynie.

I thought I'd never see you again,

but I never stopped thinking about you,

not ever.

- Oh, Dan,

we'll look after each other now,

won't we?

- Yes, always.

- Always.

- You'll like it here.

They'll teach you how to hunt and track.

You'll learn all the ways of the animals,

call out the birds, you'll be one of us.

(calm guitar music)

(trap snaps loud)

- Snap, got him.

Lots of these Omar,

right around the village.

We'll leave pathways clear for us to walk through

but everywhere else,

Warp-traps.

- But what about walls?

The fences?

- Lots of those too.

Come on, we've traps to make.

- They gonna have everyone working

all day and all night.

It's gonna be like a castle!

- They're not making me work!

- We don't have to, you and I,

we got the hens to look after.

- Good.

- I guess we'll have to work all night too.

- What?

- In the coop. We'll have to sleep there every night.

Take turns to stay awake.

- Get lost, I'm not sleeping in the hen coop!

- But we have too!

How else are we gonna stop the thief?

(ominous music)

(loud screeching)

- [Erin] Can I see that rope tonight?

- Can't.

Going back to the Ant village.

- You're always there.

- Food's better, isn't it?

- I thought you didn't like it.

- So?

Changed my mind.

- [Sky] At least the mirror system seems to be working.

Now!

(flutes and chiming)

(lively tribal music)

(lively tribal music)

(thump of arrow)

- While they will be waiting for the signal.

- Come on!

Come on!

- There! There it is.

The system works!

(lively tribal music)

- Did you see that?

It was just so cool!

- Yeah, yeah.

Sal, I think I know how we can catch a thief.

- How?

(birds chirping)

(calm mystical music)

(owls hooting)

(wind howling)

- [Sky] Are you sure you don't know anything

about the drawings?

- [Zora] I'm not interested in the caves, Sky.

Just how the defenses are coming along.

- We need more people to defend the north-side.

- And you've got them?

It was a good days work today.

Even Jag seemed sorta pleased.

He's gone back to the Ants' village,

says he's gonna help Omar and Kwarli tomorrow.

- He's been spending a lot of time over there lately.

- Maybe Omar and Jag are gonna become best of friends.

(Sky laughing)

- I'm gonna turn in.

Oh, Zora, I didn't tell you,

but in those cave drawings,

there was a picture of a door.

- I told you Sky.

- Yeah, I know but,

but what if it's a door that's meant to be open?

- The doors back to the Old Time should stay shut!

Forever!

Forget it Sky.

For world to build right here,

in the present.

- Yeah.

Well, goodnight.

(ominous music)

(loud screeching)

(door screeching)

- Yes?

- Do you have a signal to let Gwyn know you want to meet?

- Yes.

- So you want to tell me?

- There's an old round hut in the forest,

she'll check it every day.

If there's a red curtain in the window,

she'll know what to do.

- That's really neat, Shadow.

You thought of that all by yourself?

- Yes.

- Good.

Then hang out the curtains.

I want her to report.

(somber music playing)

- Spy on the Ants and the Barbs,

in exchange you'll stay a Priv.

- You okay?

- Just got a few things on my mind.

That's all.

- Don't worry sis.

You're free from the Privs now.

They can't harm you anymore.

We'll fight them.

And we'll beat them.

Together.

Night.

(malicious instrumental music)

(upbeat tribal music)

(Cock crowing)

- Leanne, wake up.

Wake up.

- What?

What is it?

- You were supposed to keep watch.

- I did

I am.

Sal, look.

- What?

- The trap, it worked!

- You think?

- Sure it did, it's shut.

Boy, someone's gonna have sore fingers this morning.

(relaxed pan flutes music)

- You wanna start getting that fence up today?

What do you think?

- Yeah, sure, whatever.

- Good, might as well get started then.

- Ow!

- What's wrong?

- Nothing.

- It's blisters.

You Barbs obviously aren't used to hard work.

Soon put that right.

Come on then.

- [Leanne] Someone's gonna have sore fingers this morning.

(trap snapping)

(high-spirited instrumental music)

- (loud growling)

(wind howling)

- [Sky] A door in the earth.

(fantastical instrumental music)
