There he is!
He's coming here now!

Hurry!
What happened!
He got off!

Claxon got off again!
[ Woman ]
What?

No witnesses.
The judge let him go.

You see, Tidus?
I knew once
you thought about it,

you'd tell the judge
it wasn't me you saw...

strangling that little redhead.

This is a fine-looking family
you've got here.

Be a shame if something bad
happened to them, wouldn't it?

[ Chuckles ]

Ooh. If it ain't
the long arm of the law.

Guess you lose again,
Jaris.

Don't worry.
I'm a patient man.
You don't get it, do you?

Nobody's gonna testify
against me.

And no judge
would find me guilty.
If they did--

All right, Claxon.
Take it off the street.

I'm tired of you
in my face.

You bother me.
You're like a bug,

and bugs get squashed.

You wanna get into this
in front of a town
full of witnesses?

Nobody's gonna see a thing.

Call me nobody,
and I've already seen enough.

[ Man ]
Come on.

Hercules!

It's a nice, quiet little town
you got here, Jaris.
I just thought I'd drop in.

Good timing.
I've been trying to get rid
of Claxon for years.

It's so good to see you.
You too.

I guess you heard
about my wife.
Yeah.

I'm sorry.
Aspa was a wonderful woman.
She was.

And she would have made
a wonderful mother
to little Bartoc too.

At least she got to hold him
before she died.

You named him
after your brother.
Yeah.

You gotta see him.
I'd love to.

Remember Aspa's sister?
Sure. Hi, Rena.

Nice to see you again,
Hercules.

The little fussbudget
is Bartoc.
He's great.

He needs a nap.

Sorry he's in such a mood.
He was sick all night
with a fever.

Hmm.
You better
take him home, Rena.

I'll walk you to the wagon.
Catch up with you.
Okay.

We should have Hercules
over for dinner.

That's a good idea.

Celesta.

Celesta!
Hello, Hercules.

Hi. I, uh,
wish I could say
I was happy to see you.

Mortals think I come
to take life.

I'm only here to guide them
to the other side
when it's their time to go.

I know you're a source
of comfort on the journey,

but the mortal half of me
is always saddened
to see a life end.

I've always admired
your compassion for humans.

[ Coughing ]

Celesta!

Not the baby?
No, I'm not here
for the baby.

[ Sighs ]
I've come for Jaris.

[ Man Narrating ]
This is the story
of a time long ago,

a time of myth and legend,

when the ancient gods
were petty and cruel,

and they plagued mankind
with suffering.

Only one man dared
to challenge their power--

Hercules.

Hercules possessed a strength
the world had never seen,

a strength surpassed
only by the power of his heart.

He journeyed the earth,
battling the minions
of his wicked stepmother, Hera,

the all-powerful
queen of the gods.

But wherever
there was evil,

wherever an innocent
would suffer,

there would be... Hercules.

- [ Screeching ]
- [ Roaring ]

Hail!

Jaris?

Jaris is gonna die?

How?

You can't stop it.

The Fates have already
severed Jaris's lifeline.

It will be fast and painless.

But he's so young.

There are things even you
are powerless
to change, Hercules.

Wait, wait.
Don't take him yet!

Give him some more time
to-to get his life in order,
say his good-byes.

You know I can't do that.

You can't tell me he's gonna die
and expect me not to help him!

Hades will have my head.

All right.
A day, no longer.

Death is never easy.

It's the survivors
who have it the hardest.

You found that out
when you met Jaris's brother.

Bartoc.
It was the first time
I ever met you.

I'll never forget
what happened.

I thought I put it behind me...

until now.

Hercules, pick up the pace!
You're walking through this
like a drill!

But it is a drill.

Well done, Iolaus.

Cheiron, I've done this so much,
I could do it in my sleep.

It's not the moves
that need work.
It's the attitude.

You win
or you losehere.

Well, you know, Cheiron,
I try to tell him, but--

[ Chuckling ]

You are my most promising
student, Hercules.

But lately, you've grown
cocky and overconfident.

Well, it's the training.

I mean, day in, day out.
It's boring.

That's it!
You have 14 days
to enjoy the festival...

and to visit
with your families!

When you come back,
come back ready to work!

[ Cheering, Laughing ]

[ Iolaus ]
Six weeks of "Up at dawn"
and "Drill till you drop."

[ Chuckles ]
I am so ready for
your mother's cooking.

Maybe you should have continued
a life of crime, Iolaus.

Hard prison labor would be
a breeze compared to
life at Cheiron's academy.

Look at 'em,
all those goody-goody cadets.

They make me wanna puke.

Here he comes--
hotshot Hercules.

Thinks he can stick his nose in
and cost us a turf war.

Now, it's payback time.

All right, Bartoc.

Kill Hercules,
and you'll be one of us.

You sure a knife will do it?
He's stronger than anyone.
Never been beat.

Just do it!
We'll set him up.

- [ Chattering, Indistinct ]
- [ All Yelling ]

Now, Bartoc!
Gut him!

You know, it's just like you
to send a baby
to do your work, Dageth.

I'll show you who's a baby!

Get up, you wimp!

Come on.

You know,
I do have a tougher workout
every day before breakfast.

[ Yelling ]

Let's-Let's get outta here!

Hurry!

Herc.

Herc!

He's dead.

[ Cheiron ]
Such a waste,
and for nothing.

It's my fault.

Herc, he had a knife.

But I didn't take it seriously.

I should've handled it better.

Yes, you should have,
but you didn't.

Next time, you will.
It's called learning.

Dageth called him Bartoc.

The guy says
his father's a farmer
about half a day away.

You know what you have to do,
don't you?

Yes, I do.

Hey! Yo, Herc!

Wait up!
Iolaus.

Let's get going.
This is something
I gotta do by myself.

Aw, man!
Please.

Well, just don't forget
it was a gang who forced
Bartoc into fighting you.

You can't take all the blame.

Yeah, I know.
But this kid's dead
because of me.

It's nobody else's fault.
It's up to me to take him home.

This how you tail a guy, huh?

A blind cyclops
attracts less attention.
Let me go.

I'll cut you.

Little kids
shouldn't play with knives.

No, it's chumps like you
we oughta play with.

You again.
Hello, Hercules.

I'm Celesta.

Messenger of Hades.

That's why you were there today.
You came for the boy.

You're not what
I would have expected.

[ Chuckles ]
I hear that a lot.

What you're doing-- taking
his body home to his family--
is a very compassionate act.

Most of us on Olympus
are very proud of you, Hercules.

And my father, Zeus,
is he proud of me too?

Of course.
Of course.

The King of Gods
has enormous responsibility.

Hercules, he thinks of you
more than you know.

Yeah. Look,
thanks for the nice words,

but if you really wanna help me,
bring Bartoc back to life.

I'm afraid that's not possible.

Then we have nothing
to talk about.

No offense. I appreciate
that the other gods
realize that I exist.

But it would be nice
if my own father did,

even if he does think of me
more than I know.

It was nice meeting you.

I hope you can help
the boy's family
find peace, Hercules.

And find some for yourself.

[ Grunting ]

Hey, let me give you
a hand with that.

This thing's bigger
than you are.
Thanks.

Are you here to see my father?

Is his name Nehemiah?

That's him.
I'm Jaris.

Hello, Jaris.
I'm Hercules.

I need to speak to your father.
It's about your brother.

Bartoc? Great!

Father will be happy
to meet a friend of his!
Wait here!

Father! Father!
Come quick!
[ Sighs ]

Father,
there's a guy over there.
He's a friend of Bartoc's.

Well, let's meet him.

Don't even think
about eating that!

That fruit may look
sweet as honey,

but it'll make ya sick
if you eat it raw.

Bartoc fed one
to our cow one time.

We couldn't drink the milk
for a week.

Well, he didn't know.

Sometimes,
pretty means poison.

Jaris says
you know Bartoc.

I'm Hercules.

I knew Bartoc
just for a short time.

Jaris, go to the house.

But why?
Do as I say, now.

That's my boy,
isn't it?

I'm sorry, sir.

It was an accident.

I didn't--

Thank you
for bringing him home.

You're a good friend.

[ Hercules ]
Your father
would be proud of you.

Well, I'm not a farmer
like he was.

But town constable
is honest work.

And with troublemakers
like Claxon around, at least
I'm never gonna be out of a job.

Jaris, have--

have you ever talked
with Rena about, you know,

if something
were to happen to you,

what would happen
to little Bartoc?
Well, no.

Would she raise him?
I mean, I can tell
she loves him.

Yes, she does,
she and her husband both.
Herc, what are you getting at?

I saw Celesta today,
the Messenger of Death.

She-- She came for you.

But I'm still here,
and I feel fine.

She's giving you some extra time
to make arrangements
for your son.

Could it be a mistake?

No.
I'm sorry.

I always hoped I'd accomplish
something before my time came.

But you have. You've been
someone your neighbors
could turn to for help.

You stood up for them.
I haven't done enough.

Decent people can't even
walk the streets.

Claxon, others like him.

I'm leaving my son
to grow up in a world
full of vicious animals!

He'll grow up
with people who love him.

That's more important.

I gotta
think this through.
Some things I gotta do.

How much time?
Did she say?

Not much. One day.

It's all your fault!
If he hadn't run away,
he'd still be alive!

Jaris--
I'm gonna run away myself!

And don't try and stop me!

I'll talk to him.

Wow!

This is nice.

Bartoc built it.

You guys must have been
pretty good pals, huh?

He was my brother.

I always thought
he'd come back for me someday,

someday when things
had cooled off between him and--

What was it about--
the argument?

Bartoc was hanging around
some guys my father didn't like.

He said it was for his
own good-- that he didn't wanna
see them around here anymore.

Well, at least he cared,
right?

My father didn't care about me.
Still doesn't.

If I was in Bartoc's place,
I'd never wanna leave here.

Did Bartoc ever talk about me?

Yeah, of course.

All the time.

Tell me about him,
these last few months.

Well, he--

You ever hear
of Cheiron's academy?

He went there?
That's gotta be tough.

It ain't no picnic.

You see, Cheiron's a Centaur.
A great warrior.

Doesn't put up with anything.

You learn how
to handle yourself,

learn how to look out
for each other.

You and Bartoc?
That's great!

Well, if it isn't
Mr. "Look at me,
I'm in the academy now."

What's your job,
shooing flies off the Centaur?

Well, it sure beats
this lame excuse for a crew.

[ Groans ]

So, Hercules has taken
our dead buddy back to the farm.

It makes things simple.

Him and the old man are
both responsible for putting
that poor kid in the ground!

Yeah, right.

Blame everybody but yourself.
Big man.

Word is out
from here to Corinth.

As soon as a few more crews
get here, Hercules and
the old man are dead meat.

You know,
this has nothing to do
with settling things.

This is all about you
trying to look tough.

Check it.
I float like a Harpy and
sting like a Stymphalian bird!

Ooh!
And drop like a rock.

Get him!
[ Blows Landing ]

Hey! You tell
your buddy Hercules...

we'll be coming for him
and the old man!

Stop fighting!
He's gone! Aah!

[ Iolaus ]
Herc!

You're another
of Bartoc's friends.
Thank you for being here.

Well, I had to come.

Hercules, would you mind
saying a few words?

Um, I'm not family.

Please, Hercules?
You were his friend.

[ Nehemiah ] In some ways,
you may have known him
better than we did.

Bartoc was trying
to find his way.

He was, uh, trying to find
who he-he really was.

That's not always easy.

It-It can be tough...

opening up,
talking about how you feel...

or admitting that
you feel lost...

or forgotten.

Bartoc will always be with you.

He'll be in your hearts.

And he'll hear your thoughts
when you think of him,

and he'll hear mine too.

Iolaus!
What-What happened?

What are you--
What are you doin' here?
What amIdoing here?

Herc, I don't know
what is going on, but
Dageth is coming after you.

He's bringing his own gang
and a bunch of others.

We need to leave.
I-I can draw them away.
No, no.

No, it won't work.

He's got a grudge against
Bartoc's father too.

You're both on his hit list.
[ Nehemiah ]
Hercules.

I'd like you
to stay on a while.
Your friend too.

Iolaus.

Iolaus. It'd be good
for, uh, Jaris...

to have someone to talk to
who was close to Bartoc.

We'd be glad to, Nehemiah.

Close to Bartoc?
You didn't tell him, did you?
No.

You didn't tell him?
No!

Do you want me to tell him?
No, I don't want you
to tell him.

I'll tell him!
Iolaus, I don't want ya
to say anything!

That man's son
and that boy's brother
is dead because of me.

Any trouble that they're in
is my fault.

I'll handle it.

[ Blows Landing ]
[ Man Groaning ]

Claxon, why?
I kept quiet!
You got off!

Yeah. This is just a reminder
in case you change your mind.
[ Groans ]

[ Chuckles ]
Jaris.

What a surprise.
You caught me stepping on a bug.

I guess that's
some kind of violation.

Okay, take me to court.
But I gotta tell ya--

I'm getting tired of you
wasting my time.

I haven't got time
to waste either, Claxon.

Smart man.

Oh, just between us,

I strangled that redhead.

Choked the life
right out of her.

And Tidus there,
he saw it all.

She was frisky, though.

Put up a real good fight.

I'm thinking of
looking up her sister.

[ Laughing ]

Jaris, don't!

Should have done that
a long time ago.

Why?

- Why?
- No time.

If I gotta go,
I'm gonna take as many like him
with me as I can.

This didn't have to happen,
Hercules.

I broke the rule.
I gave him extra time.

No, I'm the one
who's responsible.
I should have stayed with him.

[ Sighs ]
He's afraid of facing death.

That's why he's doing this
instead of taking care
of his son.

You'd better stop him soon.

If this keeps up,
all the evil he does...

will outweigh all the good
he's already done in his life,

and Hades won't permit him
into the Elysian Fields.

I won't let that happen.

I owe it to his father...

and his brother.

You're not afraid
to get your hands calloused.

Bartoc never had
a taste for it.

You've been doin' this
all your life.

I'm just catchin' up.
Storm's comin'.

You better hurry, son.

[ Horse Whinnies ]

[ Thunderclap ]

Herc, they're here.

I know. I saw 'em.
About 30 by my count.

Yeah, well, maybe
we could have headed them off
if we left before,

but now they've got us
boxed in.

Nehemiah wouldn't
have stood a chance.
You know that.

What's on your mind, Iolaus?
Okay, you asked for it.

No matter how hard you try,
you're never gonna take
that dead kid's place.

So the old man called you "son."
So what?
You're not really his son.

You can't make up
for killing that kid
by stepping into his life!

That's not what I'm doin'!

Oh, really?
Well, you could've fooled me,
and maybe yourself.

Hercules,
you'd better come outside.

Now, this is really nowhere.

No wonder Bartoc couldn't wait
to get away from here.
The place stinks.

Yeah, talk about stinks,
you guys mind standing
downwind a bit?

I just had lunch.
Cut to the chase, Dageth.

Thought you might wanna know,
I got rival crews behind me,

guys who would've
cut each other's hearts out
a few days ago.

But you're our common cause,
Hercules.

Thanks to you,
we're too big to stop.

What's going on, Hercules?

You know who these guys are,
don't you?

You'd be Jaris, huh?
Knew your brother.

Just to show I'm righteous,
I'm willing to
cut you a break.

Join up,
and you won't be hurt.

You could even take
your brother's place with us.

What's he talking about,
Hercules?

You never said anything
about Bartoc being in a gang.

Jaris, go to the barn.
Now!

[ Man ]
Hercules, you his mommy now?

What's up, Herc?
Don't you think the kid
has a right to hear this?

Especially considering
what you did
to his big brother!

Big man!
Get ready to rumble!

Wait, wait, wait.

The way I see it,
you're either with us
or against us.

Come sundown,
everyone against us dies.

Let's go.

As soon as it gets dark,
maybe we should try
and sneak Jaris outta here.

No. He's safer here where
we can watch out for him.

Hey! Hey!
Let go of me!

Jaris, what are you doing?

They're those guys my father
ran out of town before.

I heard what they said.
They're coming for us.

I'm not a kid anymore!
I can help fight 'em!

It's what Bartoc
would have done!
Jaris, sometimes ya gotta fight.

But you gotta pick your time,

and you gotta pick your place.

You can't be forced into it.

Bartoc forgot that.
That's what got him killed.

So how'd he really die?

In a gang fight?

Did Dageth do it?

Jaris, go find your father.
There's some things
I need to tell him.

Uh, Herc, maybe now's
not the time, huh?

No. I should have been honest
from the start.

I need to tell him
what really happened.

Come on!
I did all the hard work, bashin'
that miser lady over the head.

I got the bigger share comin'.

She was sound asleep
when we broke in!

Would've stayed that way
had you not made so much racket!

Hey, you still got me to thank.
Now she can't identify us!

She was blind, you moron!
Hello, boys.

Huh?

Jaris.

We won these dinars
fair and square in a card game.

Yeah.
You can't prove we didn't.

You're right. I can't.

Guess what?
I don't care.

Okay.

[ Man ]
He's gone crazy!

Please, don't kill me!

Look! I confess!

I-I-I'm sorry!
It was an accident!

Shut up!
At least die like a man.

Jaris!

Put the knife down.

Let him go!

Get out of here, Hercules.
This has nothing to do with you!

Put the knife down.

You'll have to kill me
to stop me.

Wouldn't that be funny...

if that was the way it was
supposed to happen all along?

Not so fast.

I'll deal with you later.

[ Yelling ]

Let's go!
Let's go!

You should have thrown
that knife through my heart.

You should listen
to your heart.

Listen to your brother
Bartoc.

He'd tell you that
killing isn't the answer.

Don't you get it?

There is no answer.

I'm a walking dead man!

But you're not dead yet.

Every moment of life
is precious.

Spend it with your son.

Spend it with the people
who love you.

Because of me,
your brother never had
that chance,

but you have.

I'm afraid to die, Hercules.

I know.

We all are.

I can't fight it, can I?

None of us can.

Once we realize that,
the hard part is over.

Will you tell my son
about me someday?

And tell him
his father loved him?

I will, my friend.

I promise.

What's the matter?
Jaris said you wanted to see me.

Nehemiah,
there's a gang here.

Bartoc was one of them.

They attacked me.
I was fighting them off.

Bartoc died because
I killed him.

It was an accident.

[ Yells ]

I trusted you,
took you under my roof!

I treated you like family.

You have every right
to be angry.

I can't bring Bartoc back.

I'm sorry.

But I need to get this
out in the open...

in case we don't get through
this one alive.

Herc!
They're coming.

[ Yelling, Shouting ]

Keep your eyes open!
Don't give 'em a chance
to slip through!

Torch this place
and everyone in it!

Make them beg for mercy!

Burn, baby, burn!

Jaris, grab the bucket!

Duck!

You had your chance
with us, kid.
[ Jaris ] Father!

Jaris!

No!

Time to pick on somebody
your own size, Dageth.

That's the last time you're
gonna put your hands on me.
You're dead meat!

Rip his heart out!

Hey, Kenickus!

Play nice.

Come on, Dageth!

Is that all you got?

Come on!
Come on!

Get him, Herc!

You're finished, Dageth.
Get out!

- It won't be the same.
- It looks good to me.

Thanks, Hercules.

Time to hit the road,
Herc.

Good-bye, Jaris.

Tell him.
Hercules.

I just wanna say thank you...

for saving Jaris
from the gang.

And maybe I can be
a better father to him
than I was to Bartoc.

Good-bye, Jaris.

He's with his brother
and his father now.

I know.

Come in.
Have something to eat
with us, Hercules.

No, no.
You, uh--

You go on.
I'll-- I'll be along.

What's wrong, Herc?

This makes two people
I've buried here--

both too young.

But you were there for Jaris
when he needed you.

You have nothing to blame
yourself for this time.

I still can't help
feeling guilty.

With time and understanding,
those feelings will fade.

But never completely.

We have both learned
a lot along the way.

Well, ya gotta live and learn.

Yeah.

It's too bad...

some of the biggest lessons
we learn...

involve losing
people we love.

They're never really gone,
right?

'Cause they're
part of us always.

[ Chuckles ]

Always.
