What are you doing here?

Yeah, it's hotter than hell out here.

You know, I'm pretty sure I heard somebody groan.

Ah, it's just some guy that snored.

Hey, Robinson, do you think we'll have much change in the weather?

Nope, doesn't look like it.

Well, I'm sorry, but I was obliged to do it.

I present your new captain, Jack One -Eye the First. Anyone here oppose my

nomination? No!

Well, call me good lads. I hereby give me first order.

Go below and fetch a barrel of rum. Make it two, make it three.

Long live the captain.

Come on, lads. Now,

hear me.

Hear me, all of you.

Me boys, you're a bunch of imbeciles.

We've been left without a captain, without a second in charge, and without

bosun. What devil's gonna chart the course of this damn boat?

The boys, it's a good thing your captain's been thinking ahead.

Professor, get the navigator. But he's disappeared.

What's that you say?

He has to be on board.

We gotta find him. Aye, aye, sir.

Have you seen Mr. Robinson?

Jack! Damn it.

Someone's gone off and taken the rowboat.

So he's escaped, huh?

Well, without water and provisions, he won't last long.

Hey, Professor.

Yes, sir, Captain. Take the wheel. We're heading for Batavia.

The pud, sir.

Where in the hell's Batavia?

Oh, I'm such an idiot.

Bye.

Thank you.

Log on board the frigate Trinidad, Captain Humberto de Mendoza y Santos.

The storm has subsided, but the coral reefs have ripped the planks of the

With good fortune, we've been able to reach land with a portion of the cargo

weapons, and almost all of the horses.

If the boat stays afloat one day longer, they fell upon us like the furies of

the inferno, hurtling at us with shouts of death.

The crew has been exterminated.

Dear God.

What horrible beings populate this island.

Wait, girl.

Let them get away.

This way we shall show our enemies that no one else shall ever set foot on this

island.

Oh, gods of the stars, thank you for giving strength to our arms and courage

our hearts.

Once more, greed has brought men to this island.

And once more, they have been vanquished.

And so it shall always be, oh gods, until you return to Earth.

The virgins of this island swore to protect the eternal light from human

ambition one day long ago now lost in the midst of time.

We shall also fulfill that oath, we who are living, with our last breath within

us, until the last drop of blood is drained.

You and I shall fight together against man, our enemy, because it is so written

in our symbols.

We shall fight against man, our enemy, because it is so written in our symbols.

We shall fight against man, our enemy, because it is so written in our symbols.

The temple of the eternal light is sacred.

And we shall defend it unto death.

The temple of the eternal light is sacred.

And we shall defend it unto death.

It's all right.

Quiet.

Easy, boy.

Come on, Fury!

Come,

Fury!

You intruder! I'm going to kill

you!

Come on.

Fury! Kill

him! Fury!

Kill him!

Watch out!

Who are you?

The name's Dan Robinson.

I was washed onto this island.

And you, who are you?

Kilma, the queen of the Amazons.

You will have to leave here.

I assure you that's what I'd like to do.

If you are found here, they will kill you.

I know that.

What I can't understand is how I'm still alive.

It's a testament, my country.

A way of showing thanks.

Showing thanks?

Mm -hmm.

You... you saved my life, Dan.

Now go.

Bye.

Oh, great Kilma, queen of the Amazons, guardians of the eternal light, I salute

you. We have sailed six days and six nights to bring to you the annual

of Matinimanu, king of the islands of the rising sun. This is Anaway, the most

precious pearl of our people.

Anaway has trained in the art of warfare, and her arm is as hard as rock.

Her heart fears no danger, but I assure you that her soul is as pure as the

sacred flower of Teodemity.

She can join with us.

And be a guardian of the eternal light if what she says is true.

But if your word is false, your eyes will never again see the light of

So be it, great queen.

Now we shall test the strength of your arms.

You were strong and firm, Annaway.

Now we shall see if you were strong in your heart.

Wait.

I shall do this test.

Your test is ended.

Your heart fears no danger.

But now there's something more important.

Anue, you must show us that your soul is pure.

With this necklace, accept the oath of the virgins who have preceded us in the

custody and defense of the eternal light.

I swear to fight against our enemies because it is so written in the annals.

The temple of the eternal light is sacred and I shall defend it unto death.

Hold still.

Hold still.

Did you come alone?

Where's your mistress?

Where is she, boy?

Tell me, has something happened to her?

Huh? Hey, you want to lead me to where she is, huh?

All right, all right, we'll go. Come on.

Hey, come on, stop it.

I'll go with you. Come on, lead the way.

Gilma! Wait, Gilma.

What is it?

You look sad.

Because it will soon get dark, and you will be going away.

It will be as though you had never been here. If the wind is favorable inside of

eight or ten days, I shall be in the ocean lanes.

Gilma, listen to me, Gilma.

There are other places far away from here where life is different.

Why the devil do you stay here?

Please come with me, Kilmer.

Kilmer!

Kilmer!

Do not walk hopelessly.

Rightfully, you're our queen, and with your cunning, we have captured one of

eternal enemies.

This man is not an enemy.

He was washed ashore on this island, and he will leave here forever.

I order you to let him leave here in peace.

You forget that many Amazons have lost their lives defending the Temple of the

Eternal Light against human greed.

This man knows nothing of the existence of the Eternal Light. It was not greed

that brought him to this island.

It was chance.

You know what our oath is.

Take this.

You know what you must do.

Why is your hand trembling so, Ciaran?

Had you not thought of the oath?

Look at him.

Look at him and see that he's an enemy and you should hate him.

Come on.

Why do you wait then?

If you don't do it, then I will.

What was wrong with you?

Are you women or animals?

It's not possible that the gods have turned you into instruments of hate and

destruction.

Get away.

Follow me.

What are your plans?

Your lips have pronounced words never before heard here.

Our vows are very ancient, Dan.

But your words are new to us.

Listen to me now.

Those men have very dangerous arms capable of killing at a hundred paces.

can destroy you with their bolts of lead and fire.

Then they'll destroy us if it's our destiny.

Why do you wish to provoke a useless carnage?

There's only one thing which could have brought them to this lost island. The

necessity for water.

You they don't know about. Nor the temple.

They're my race.

And represent for me my salvation.

The possibility of my going home again.

You want to save their lives so you can get away.

I saved your life also.

Don't you forget it.

I only need a few hours.

One night is enough.

I will talk to them.

And I'll get them to leave the island.

Get out of here. Get out of here.

Give me.

Come on.

Hey, Professor, you worthless worm. Do you want me to die of hunger?

It's ready.

Well, well, what a surprise. It's Mr. Robinson.

Come on, get moving.

What the hell am I going to eat then?

Why don't you ask instead why I didn't hang you?

We've already lost five days. You know what that means to us?

Yeah, we've lost five days.

In Batavia, we'll change the cargo of the Falmouth for four pieces of

A pirate ship fitted with four modern cannons can fill its holds with gold in

couple of years.

The most difficult is done.

All we lack is one thing.

Now find Batavia.

What a marvelous surprise.

You're alive and well.

Just the idea of knowing you were lost at sea without water and provisions kept

me from closing my eye the whole long night. Thanks, Jack, wouldn't I? I knew

that under that dirty exterior of yours you were hiding a heart of gold.

Here, dear. Come on. Some food. Try this lousy bird.

You must be tired and hungry.

It's good?

Yeah, sure it's good. It's what is called a laffera, commonly known as a

pheasant. Usually found in the island of Malaysia.

To me, it's a lousy bird. Nothing else.

What I can't understand is why you're still navigating these waters.

This stupid imbecile grounded the Falmouth on a sandbar.

Now everything's going to be different. Right, Dan, my lad?

Yeah. Now we can count on an expert helmsman who will take us to Batavia

the wink of an eye.

You know, I should have every right to be angry with you.

Leaving the ship without even a fear you will.

But Jack One -Eye doesn't hold a grudge.

What's past is past, right, lad?

It appears you're in quite a hurry to get to Batavia.

I want to deliver the ship and the cargo as soon as possible.

I wouldn't be able to live with a weight like that on my conscience.

Me lad, you know I'm not a pirate.

Simply that I rebelled against the cruel discipline of Captain Maxwell.

May he rest in peace.

You know you're headed for the gallows.

No one uses the word gallows in my presence, you understand?

Come on, lad. We got to get a little rest.

Hard work lies ahead.

We shove off tomorrow at dawn.

Whatever you say, one -eyed.

Sleep well, Dan, my boy.

Don't you lose sight of him.

If he escapes, I swear I'll skin you.

And you, watch the professor.

They haven't left yet. What do you plan?

We'll wait until the sun is high on the horizon.

But what's wrong? I hardly know you.

Your arm has lost all its strength and your heart is not filled with pain.

The gods of the stars have abandoned us ever since that man appeared.

And he betrayed us for those of his race.

We know that's not true.

How can you be sure?

No one is to leave here.

And stay alert.

I'm going to see what's going on.

Norman, let's move.

Come on, wake up, Professor.

Get up.

What's up? Nothing, but let's get going.

Hey, everybody up.

Come on, you sluggards. You drunken bunchers.

Come on, get up. All right, everybody up.

What's all the ruckus?

They sure were in a rush to get to Batavia, right?

Inside of an hour, I want the Falmouth in full sail.

Where the hell are the natives of this damned island hiding?

They could be helping us to bring water.

They're probably hidden out in the jungle.

Apprehensive and frightened.

Frightened, you say?

These aren't exactly needles they use, you know. They only use these weapons to

hunt.

They could at least have left their women behind for us.

The women are much more timid than the men are.

More timid, you say?

Hey,

what's that? It's mine.

Yeah? Give me. Let go.

It's mine.

Give me. I found it. All right, what is it? Hey, you two, what's going on here?

What's that?

I found it. Get your lousy hands off that.

Well, the devil did.

What do you think of this, Robinson?

May I be struck by lightning if this necklace isn't worth as much as half the

cargo of the Falmouth?

Yes.

Could be worth.

So the women of this island used trinkets of Spanish gold to adorn

And with precious stones.

And they got so much they leave them strewn about anywhere.

You heard?

I now understand your reasons in trying to get us away from here.

You were afraid we'd find more things, right?

Without a doubt, you were thinking of coming back and cleaning the island of

treasures. You're a local one, eh?

Yeah,

I'm local.

I want to see those savages. I want to talk to them. And you're going to help

to do it.

You're wrong again.

I don't know where they are.

That's no matter then.

Jake! Blint, Stacy. Hi, Captain. Get the men together, organize small groups and

search the island.

I want those savages brought here. Come on, let's go. Let's go.

Come along, dandy boy.

I want to invite you for a swig.

I thought you were in a hurry to get to Batavia. Well, to tell the truth, it's

really not so bad here. Walk.

I'm finished.

I can't go on. I'm not a man for dry land.

Keep going, Professor.

Who in the hell knows where these savages are hiding out?

Shh.

There are two girls down there.

They're bathing.

It's a dream, ain't it?

What should we do? Should we fire? Huh?

Foolish ass you are. How are you going to fire on a vision?

The girls of this island are as sweet and loving as the girls of paradise.

Look, up there. Come on.

Come on, let's catch them alive.

But you said you were dead tired, no?

My boy, there are things in life that return to one the energy of a 20 -year

-old.

Don't let them escape.

Oh, little one, you want to play, yeah?

Wait, don't run away, little one.

Now I've got you.

Not important.

There.

What's going on?

Two women riding 40 -0 on horseback.

I didn't think there were horses on this island.

Climb down. Don't let them see you.

Come on.

Easy,

easy. Come here.

How the hell did you get the idea to put girls in a towel to sweeten loving?

Well, anybody can make a mistake, no?

We just picked the wrong time.

My grandfather was right. He told me to beware of women.

Well, I'm not so sure these are exactly women.

Good. Look at this thing. It has the virtue of making people talk. All right,

one -eye.

Who are you trying to impress, huh?

I thought you were smart enough to be able to guess. Stand me, boy.

And I'm also smart enough to know that you need someone to steer the Falmouth

Batavia. Yeah, yeah, but as soon as we reach the coast of Java.

Prudence. I know what your intentions are.

Somebody's coming.

Looks like they found the savages.

They took us by surprise.

There were dozens.

Hundreds.

More. And you didn't catch one prisoner.

Well, we didn't make it opportune. You returned, aunt, and you with your shoes

torn.

They took us by surprise.

More than a thousand of them. And they were armed to the teeth.

They were as tall as... They were giants. Yeah.

Yeah.

Why the devil do you laugh?

I'm going to give you some advice, one -eyed.

Get your men off this island if you don't want your bones to rot here.

On this island, there is gold.

And you know how to go about getting it.

You talk when you...

Well, you see, blasted cowards, worthless worms. You let women overpower

miserable, cursed chickens.

What are you thinking of, my boy?

I'll become a monk if I get out of here.

A monk?

What a thing to say.

Well, seeing as how my first experience with love turned out, Professor, the

best thing I could do, don't you think?

A little more, please.

Don't think me indiscreet, but what are you going to do with this?

Kilmer, our queen, will decide.

I shall decide.

Kilmer was wrong in believing the words of that man and shall not return to us.

I'm certain she is a prisoner or dead.

That man has revealed our secrets.

And for that reason, the vote remains on the horizon.

Hey, just a moment there. Which man is that?

Dan Robinson? Yes.

Well, he hasn't betrayed you.

I know Dan well.

And he'd rather die than go back on his word.

It's Elmer.

Listen to me.

All of you.

Hatred towards man has been part of us since the beginning of time.

Our island has been forbidden to them.

But perhaps not everything that comes from the past is good or true.

It could be that this hatred, passed on from generation to generation, has

become as a blindfold hiding from us. Enough.

That's enough, Kilmer. It's your fault that we have neglected our laws and are

now in danger.

What did you see down there?

We have seen a man confronted with torture and most certainly death, so he

not reveal our secrets.

But the lips of Dan Robinson remain sealed.

He has not much time to live, I fear.

The quicker Dan Robinson dies, the quicker his lips will remain sealed

Gilmer.

You know that again the eternal night will fall upon us.

The dark night of hate and death will be upon us. We've always lived in that

night, true?

Any other way, the light will blind us.

And make every minute of it an agony.

T .U., now it is you who is trembling.

Your hands are cold.

What is it?

Nothing.

You are the queen.

And you must give the orders.

You shall lead.

Toward the light or the dark of night.

Thank you, T .U.

I knew I could depend on you.

Take this, me lad.

Quench your thirst.

What

the

devil is that? They came at us like furies of the infernal.

Where's Kilmer?

We are to get together at the beach.

There's no time to lose.

One eye is searching the island. Find the temple.

We have to organize this defense.

Take these cannons to the temple.

I'll go see what's going on in the cave. All right.

Come on, hurry.

Careful with that, or else we'll all be blown to smithereens.

Everything's ready.

That's what you want, isn't it? What we have outside, that's enough.

Let's go.

Kill my weather business.

What is this?

I've never seen anything like it. Thousands of years ago, the gods of the

came down to Earth in a carriage of fire.

But deceived by the selfishness and ambition of men, they went away with the

promise. And that one day they would return when the world was different.

This light is their symbol.

Representing the force that moves the stars in their eternal flight across the

heavens. The Amazons here have watched over this light ever since remote times.

So that it doesn't fall into impure hands.

How strange.

Ships of fire circling the sky.

Who would ever imagine that such a thing exists?

Jack Robinson!

Thank God you're here.

Mark what these women have done with us. I imagine that you deserved it, am I

right? Hey, Robinson, what are they going to do with us?

That's not decided yet.

Someone arose on a fire.

And others insist that you'd have your heads cut off.

Oh, holy God.

Come on, come on. No bawling around here.

You're two hardy pirates.

When you joined with Jack One -Eye, you should have known that you'd end up like

this. Listen, Robinson, I'm not a pirate. Nor I.

Really, I almost prefer having my head cut off than return to Jack one eye.

That's true.

If memory serves me, you were a gunner in the Navy, right?

Second gunner under Frigate Spartan, with his majesty.

Good.

I think I have some work for you two.

Wilma, order them to be released.

Release them.

Hey, Jack, looks like we have a clue.

That's strange.

They look like the tracks of a carriage.

Looks like we're on the right road, all right. Forward.

Well, Professor, how's it going? Well, the artillery's prepared, Mr. Robinson.

Don't forget anything.

All we need is to pray to heaven that this pair of old firearms doesn't blow

the first shot.

Don't worry. Everything will go well.

Hey, Jack, those same tracks again.

Strange that they should leave such a clear trail.

Let's move.

We have to join up with the others.

Damnation. There they are.

That's... That's the...

You sure?

Yeah. Station the men in the semicircle. I'll give the order to fire. Come on.

You others with me.

Quietly.

They're coming.

Come on.

destroy us all.

We're going to waste ammunition and men uselessly. You're right. We'll retreat.

Get back there. Come on.

Come on. Load the cannon.

Professor, you hurt badly?

Leave me.

It's only a scratch.

I have to get back to load the cannons.

It's ridiculous that a handful of women have us on the run. What I'd like to

know is where they managed to get those cannons.

Yeah, what good would that do you? They have them and that's that.

And they know how to use them.

What do you want?

To speak with you.

Well, if you don't move that away, there's not much I'll be able to say to

What do you want here?

Why have you followed us here?

We aren't after you.

But Dan Robinson, he's our helmsman and he jumped ship.

That's what's called desertion.

Desertion, understand.

And our laws insist that he be punished.

With death?

Well, it'd be a good thing if it were death, but... Then he must die.

He and Kilmer are queen.

If you want, I can lead you to them.

On condition that you leave this island forever.

Will you agree?

Just a minute.

I realize your help would be useful.

But there's something first.

I'd like to know the ground I'm stepping on.

And besides, I'm not sure I understand this hatred you have for Dan and the

Queen.

Since he got to this island, it's all changed.

Even Kilmar, our queen, has forsworn her oath.

While Dan lives here, there will be no tranquility.

So that's it.

You've fallen in love with him. Silence!

Nice way of loving.

You love him so much, you'd rather see him dead than with another woman.

Silence!

Who is she, your queen?

That's why you want to get rid of them both, isn't that right?

Silence! Stop! Stop it! Stop it!

Hey, John!

Where are you?

Help! Over here, Brent!

She got away.

She can't be far and we'll go after her. Get going.

Who is she?

One of those bastards.

She has to be around here. She was swallowed up by the earth. Hey, Blint,

there's blood around here.

Well, we're on the right trail.

Come on, what are you waiting for? Me?

Can you help me?

Tell me which is really the true path.

Move quietly.

You over there.

The rest of them.

That's it.

What are you doing here?

Get away.

This is a sacred place.

I'm sure this is nothing more than a dream.

What do you see?

I'd swear it's an Emerald Jack.

The most brilliant and the largest that any man could ever imagine.

They came from the temple. Come on, we'll go down.

Come on.

No.

Mr. Robinson!

Mr. Robinson!

The fellas has weighed anchor, sir. They've left us on the island.

That's our destiny.

Yeah, maybe you're right.

Miss Robinson!

Look! A boat!

Yep, looks like one.

We could light a large bonfire on the beach and signal there was smoke. A

bonfire, idiot?

With all this heat?

It could be years before another ship appears.

Are you in a hurry, Richard?
