The golden bow of Artemis,

goddess of the hunt.

Centuries ago passed down from Olympus,

it has remained in our temple,

protected from those who would misuse it.

But now the Oracle has commanded this contest,

with the golden bow as the prize

for the finest archer in the land.

Only three contestants remain.

Your Highness.

The city of Corinth welcomes our honored guests!

Let's hear it for the contestants!

For the final round,

the archers will shoot at a moving target.

Do you know who that woman in the mask is?

Don't look, don't look!

I swear that I've seen her before.

Don't look!

Strife!

I'm no good with moving targets.

You said you'd help me win the bow.

Eh.

I'm not one of those two-faced gods!

Worship my back, I'll scratch yours.

Now, just between you and me,

I'm poised to become the next major god.

And I need a following...

you follow me?

Just give me an arrow.

I've got the first shot.

Hmm...

I'm all a-quiver.

Our first contestant is Rytus!

He's a warlord from Perachora.

Did you see that?

Yeah.

Nice shot.

No, the... the target stopped.

Didn't you see that?

The... the big flash?

I didn't see anything!

Now come on, you get in there

and you show them how we do it

at the Academy, okay?

Come on, big shooter, get in there.

Come on, come on!

Next up, Hercules, representing Cheiron's Academy.

Let's hear it!

Hey!

Hey, something made it turn!

Try aiming at the target, boy!

I did, guy,

but something, or somebody,

interfered with my arrow.

Nobody calls Rytus a cheat.

No, no, no, no, no!

No trouble, no trouble!

What are you talking about?

No trouble!

He's not going to come here and insult me!

He called me a cheat!

Don't, Hercules.

Kora?

In an age of light and darkness,

Zeus, king of the gods,

ruled the universe.

He had a son.

Young Hercules.

Half-god, half-man,

young Hercules longs to find

his place in the world,

the father he's never known,

and what it means to be a hero.

Before the man became legend,

before the legend became myth,

came the greatest adventure of all.

Kora?

What are you doing here?

Shhh.

You!

Listen.

Something weird is going on here, okay?

My arrow should have hit that target dead center.

Hercules.

Look, I believe you.

But if no one else saw it, what can I do?

The last contestant shooting for the golden bow has chosen

to compete without a name.

Hey, uh, you know, she does look familiar.

But... don't look!

I'll have some fun with this one.

Who's the jerk?

Artemis!

Oh.

What a nice surprise.

You look great.

Working out?

The woman archer is one of my followers.

Don't interfere with her.

Interfere?

Why would I do that?

Uh, you know,

you gotta teach me how to recognize them, you know?

Is there like a secret handshake or something?

You know, hey, what's up?

What?

Oh, come on.

Tell me you didn't see that, huh?

I didn't see that.

What?

Come on, the arrow moved!

Something moved it!

Hercules, I was really watching that time,

and I didn't see anything.

All right.

If nobody else can see it than me, then, uh, then what?

Then, uh...

There's gotta be a god involved.

As the oracle commands,

I present the golden bow of Artemis

to the winner of the contest.

Congratulations.

When I saw you in the archery contest,

I couldn't help but notice your, um...

form!

Who are you?

Let's just say I'm, um...

a secret admirer.

I need something to remember you by, like, um...

that gorgeous bow!

Maybe you'd like to try and take it?

I think they would!

Get the bow!

Kora!

Hang on!

I've got the bow!

Come on!

Whoa!

You, uh, you had the bow.

Get in there!

Strife's got the bow!

Come on!

Let's get out of here!

No!

I need that bow!

Wait... listen.

You can't just go running after Strife like that, all right?

He's a lot more dangerous than he looks.

I need that bow.

There's someone I have to give it to.

Let me guess.

A god?

Yes.

Artemis.

I've pledged my life to her.

You pledged your life to her?

Why would you do something like that?

She once saved my life.

But I had to give her something in return.

Haven't you ever wondered why I'm so hard on you and the guys?

Well, I just always figured it was

'cause you didn't like me... us.

As long as I serve Artemis,

I can never have a normal life.

I can't make friends, Hercules, I don't dare.

I... If it turned into something more...

I can never let myself fall in love.

You can never fall in love?

But the thing is, if I get Artemis the golden bow,

she's promised to release me from my vows.

Yeah, but, Kora,

you can't handle Strife, Rytus,

and his men all alone.

Well, I'm gonna have to try!

Okay, listen, you're gonna need help with Strife,

all right?

Now, I can handle him.

I've done it before.

Oh, so, where you gonna find him?

You know, I can track Rytus no matter

where he goes in these woods.

Can you?

Oh.

Excuse me.

Artemis!

I call on you for the spirit of the Huntress!

Wow.

I didn't know that being a follow of Artemis was so, uh...

you know, that it changed you so much.

Is that paint on your face?

If a man touches a follower of Artemis,

he must pay with his life.

Okay.

No touching.

I got it.

Shake on it?

Just kiddin'.

This way.

You sure we're tracking Rytus and his gang?

'Cause, uh, I don't see any trail.

You see how that bird flies?

He flaps his wings?

I see its fear.

There's someone in the mouth of that cave, a guard.

Well, let's go get 'em, all right?

Wait.

I'll draw the guard out.

The fact of the matter is, gentlemen,

is that Ares is a has-been.

It's time to move over.

I'm going to take over, so I need a plan!

A business plan!

And, uh...

We can merchandise the whole thing.

Official statues.

A line of Strife follower clothing.

Eternal flames,

always a hot item!

okay!

But first.

I need somebody to build a temple...

to me.

Three, four...

Volunteers?

Come on, come on.

Huh, huh?

We can't get to the bow without being seen.

I can.

Hey, Kora.

Kor... a?

Let's go over this once more from the top, shall we?

Correct me if I'm wrong,

but I thought we had an agreement.

You get the bow, I get you!

Am I right, or am I...

Rytus?

We're not leaving this cave.

A cave sanctuary.

I can dig it.

That's really happenin'.

That's cool!

We can have a statue of me here, tripods here...

Forget it, Strife.

We don't need to be your followers.

Now I've got the golden bow.

Listen, Rytus.

We had a deal.

And a deal with Strife is a deal for life!

Ooh, I like that!

Somebody write that down!

Anybody here know how to write?

You?

Kora?

Kora?

Oh!

What next?

Give me that.

Great Artemis.

I call upon you to receive this gift.

Your sacred bow, returned to you

so that my life can be returned

to me, as promised.

You have served me well, Huntress.

Your request is just.

I offer a warning.

To leave my service is not a casual request.

Are you certain that you no longer need my help?

I am certain, Mistress.

Then, let it be so.

It worked!

You're free!

I can't believe it!

Oh, thank you, Hercules!

My pleasure.

Where's my bow?

I'm sorry to interrupt.

I didn't realize you two were so close!

Let's get out of here.

Now!

Not so fast.

You didn't answer my question.

The bow is with Artemis, where it belongs, all right?

If you touch her...

you'll regret it.

Destroy them!

I just love to watch you suffer.

Call it a...

weakness.

Well, it's a weakness all right.

You crossed me, girl.

Now I'm gonna make sure I'm the last thing you ever see.

I told you you'd regret it.

Thank you.

No problem.

You forgot to call time out so you could chat

with your girlfriend!

Hercules!

Hurt much?

Good.

Hercules...

need to help...

I can't help you...

I wonder if we can separate the part that's god

from the part that's, uh...

mortal.

My pleasure!

Artemis!

I was wrong, I need you!

Please take me back!

Give me the power of the Huntress!

It's the Huntress!

Run for your lives!

Hey!

Hey, you guys, come back!

You got a job to do, here!

Oh.

I serve the will of Artemis.

So...

Artemis got her bow back.

Well, that's great.

Uh, just so long as she knows

that I did everything I could

to help.

Are you all right?

Oh, yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

Thanks to you.

I can't believe that you did that for me.

Well, don't flatter yourself.

I need Artemis more than I thought.

Oh.

You want a hand?

Maybe Artemis will lighten up.

I mean, she got her golden bow back, right?

Oh...

Hey, uh, listen.

Can you do that shiny Huntress thing again?

Or is that just for tracking?

Hercules...

I'll make you a deal.

If you don't, I'm gonna tell the guys that you hugged me.

I will.

Oh, and again!
