NINJAS DOWN THE STREET

Finally. The Sword of the Elements.

I wouldn't do that, Mia Katana.

That sword belongs to the Shinobi.

A wise person only divides the spoils after she has won the battle.

THE 7 SHINOBI

Seven men, that's not fair.

- Then you shouldn't have come alone. - Who says she's alone?

What are you doing here?

- I came to help you, mom. - What did I say? Wait outside.

- I know, but... - Wait outside.

- I don't need you, because... - We'll be fine.

Confusing the enemy is the source of all victory. Get the sword.

Dimitri, here.

- Mom? - Here.

Yes, run away.

This isn't over, Mia Katana. Not by a long way.

I'll find you. Even if you run to the end of the world.

12 WEEKS, 6 DAYS AND 23 HOURS LATER...

Cock-a-doodle-doo, good morning.

Roy, what did I tell you?

Don't snap at people. Come on.

Sorry. It's still a puppy.

What are those slimeballs up to?

It looks like they have sunstroke.

- No. They're getting some exercise. - Ahoy, neighbor.

Are you wearing one of those stupid outfits, too?

This is a track suit. Everyone's training. For the Village Games.

Yeah, yeah. The Village Games. I knew that.

It's a sports tournament that's held here every year.

Then we find out who are the strongest,

smartest, coolest neighbors in Sandsborough. Right, Michael?

Holy cannonballs. Why would you hold a sports tournament for that?

Everyone knows that's us.

- Well, it's definitely not us. - This is going to be our year.

Dad... I think I'd rather take part with Billy this year.

That makes sense.

Don't look so disappointed, neighbor. Have you seen we've new neighbors?

Ahoy, landlubbers.

Are you coming?

Wait for me.

They make a great gang, don't they?

Are you in? Me and you? A team?

No idea. What do you do exactly at the Village Games?

Head the cannonball? Octopus wrestling? Manatee racing?

No, of course not. They aren't sports.

They sure are. Pirate sports.

The Village Games demand a combination of strength and tactic.

And you have to use your brains for the puzzles.

Thinking games? I'm already bored.

- Don't let my mom hear you say that. - Why?

- We take part every year. - Really?

They're crazy fanatics.

- My mom is a terrible loser. - They've already won three times.

Four times.

My parents always say that taking part is more important than winning.

I'll bet they do.

That's what all people say who'll never win.

- And this year will be our fifth victory. - I don't think so.

Because this year, Michael and I are going to slay you and your mother.

So, you're in?

Time for the Revenge of Cornelius.

I'll give you a two minute start. From...

...now.

No cheating.

- You know me, right? - Exactly.

I'll get you, you band of landlubbers.

Feel the weight of my sword.

Beat it.

Is that clear?

- Dad. Mom. - What's the matter?

I've been attacked. In the dunes. By a ninja.

- A ninja? - What? Ninjas? Attack.

Calm down, dad. No problem.

Billy's been seeing things.

This is Sandsborough, not the East Ocean. There aren't any...

Let it fall, guys.

...ninjas.

- Creaking Kraken. - I know what you mean.

Look, the new neighbors have arrived.

Say no more. I'll get the fruit basket.

- Nice. - Yes.

He'll have gotten lost. It's always the same with Billy.

Michael. New neighbors.

Exciting.

- Hector... - I'll stop them.

Back off.

What's gotten into you?

Hector? We just want to welcome our new neighbors.

New neighbors? They're ninjas.

You have to welcome them with swords, guns and cannons.

I think a fruit basket is somewhat kinder than swords.

Think of your daughter. She's too young to lose her mother.

Get out of here.

Billy, stick with us. Come on.

Stick with us.

- Ninjas. -Dad, come on. Hector...

They're even crazier than usual. Do you know what they're afraid of, Roy?

We aren't afraid.

Here you are. Just a little something. To welcome you to our neighborhood.

This may sound a little strange, but it's said that you...

are ninjas.

Indeed, we are.

Leave us alone.

- It's me. Michael. - And Elizabeth.

What is our password?

We don't have a password.

Right. Just a minute.

How many of them are there?

I've seen two, but that doesn't mean anything. They all look the same.

What are you looking at?

The new neighbors. They're ninjas.

And why is that so bad?

Mussel almighty. Are you really that stupid?

I guess so.

Ninjas are sneaky, bloodthirsty, life threatening...

- Life threatening? - And can't be trusted.

- They also say that about pirates. - They'll chop off your head.

Off with his head.

That's put him down.

Dad, don't scare the boy, just because a gang of those pajama prowlers

wiped out Captain Thunderbeard and his crew.

Since then, pirates and ninjas have been sworn enemies.

- And how long ago was that? - A very long time ago. Right?

- A couple of hundred years or so. - So, surely that's long past?

Oh yeah? So why did one of them attack me today?

Pirates and ninjas, that will always mean war.

That's why they've come to live here, to get revenge on us.

Now there's only one, but before you know it...

I'll bet that sneakily they're already sneakily doing something sneaky...

those sneaks.

Watch your step. Or you'll be attacked by one of those tree roots.

- Shush. I'm not afraid. - Did I say you were?

And there's nothing to be afraid of.

We're not pirates, so why should we be afraid of...

a ninja?

- Who are you? - Who? Us? Nobody.

We're just normal. Well, we're not pirates.

- I'm Michael. - And I'm Elizabeth.

My name is Yuka Katana.

What? What's wrong?

- Where is she? - Here.

What did I tell you?

What are you doing? Billy is our friend.

- He's a pirate. - Yes, he's a pirate. But he's our friend.

Can't be. Pirates are sneaky, bloodthirsty and can't be trusted.

- What did you come here for? - Isn't that obvious?

You were trying to work your way in and steal my friends.

Yeah, that's right. Just walk away.

That's typical of a ninja to sneakily walk away, like a coward.

Because you're afraid, of course.

- Afraid? Of you? - Yes.

Why else would you sneak up on me?

Because I had to protect these two from you.

- I thought you were going to attack them. - No, no, no.

It's me who has to protect them from you.

As if we can't protect ourselves.

Do you really want a duel?

Fine. But I first want to know who I'll be forcing to bite the dust.

Blunderbuss, Billy Blunderbuss.

And I never bite the dust.

Yuka Katana. Pleased to meet you. Let's get started.

Now? Right now?

I don't have a sword with me.

You can use mine.

- New pocket knife? - Shush. Shut your mouth.

You shut your mouth.

The swords are sharpened.

I've just oiled dad's leg, and this has to go up on deck.

- Have I forgotten something? - The banner?

Come on, Betsie, a banner?

Those fake ninjas will think we're a right pair of limp sea cucumbers.

Billy, explain to your mother

how you're going to chase those sneaky ninjas right out of Sandsborough

through a fair pirate fight, to the death,

instead of one of those stupid, boring banners?

'Get rid of the ninjaas?' Ninjas is with one A.

- What did they ask? - The usual stuff.

- What are you doing? Concentrate. - Yes. Sorry, mom.

- And what did you tell them? - No more than necessary.

Very good.

- I thought we were done. - You shouldn't think. Just know.

Those pirates won't fight fairly either.

Sword.

Yuka? Your sword.

Can we maybe train tomorrow, please?

Tomorrow? Fine. Go to bed.

I heard you.

Just stop it, all that sneaking around.

What are you doing here?

I was looking for my... You have it. My sword.

It's great. Nice and light.

Take it.

To show that not all pirates rob and steal.

- And smell like rotten fish. - What?

That's what my mom always says about pirates.

That they smell like rotten fish and gunpowder because they never wash.

I don't think it's too bad.

I got washed two...

maybe three weeks ago.

I have to go.

- Yes. - So, I'll be off.

Yes.

- Yuka. - Yes?

Right.

Dumb. Dumb. Dumb.

- Hector? - Yes, I'm coming.

I still don't understand why we came to live here. You hate pirates.

Exactly. All ninjas hate them.

So this is the last place Ken and the Shinobi will look for us.

Get rid of the ninjas. Make room in Sandsborough.

Get rid of the ninjas. Make room in Sandsborough.

Get rid of the ninjas. Make room in Sandsborough.

Betsie? What's all the fuss?

Sandsborough has a problem, neighbor. With the people down the street.

With the ninjas? Why?

It would be better for everyone if they left. That's why I've made this list...

Get rid of the ninjas. Make room in Sandsborough.

- Rum in Sandsborough. - No, dad. Room.

- Rum... - Make room in Sandsborough.

The power of the word splits even the hardest of heads.

What an unusual tactic. There's only one weapon that will help.

Don't tell me about ninjas. They're not to be trusted.

I expected better of you, Betsie.

Especially knowing how you felt here, at first.

I was unsure at first too, Mr. Blunderbuss,

but they've behaved impeccably so far.

Exactly. To disguise the fact that they're silent assassins.

Hector, those are harsh words, don't you think?

When it's necessary, we'll take the appropriate measures.

- Good afternoon. - Darned whale, don't sneak up like that.

What a commotion, here on the street.

One thousand excuses for my recent behavior.

- That really isn't necessary. - Yes, it is.

And whoever wants to reap peace, must not sow mistrust. Right?

That isn't an excuse, but an explanation.

I'm very pleased that Yuka and your children get on so well.

As long as she stays out of our way.

Hey, don't you have some place to loot or plunder?

Who, us?

Shouldn't you go and pluck a couple of peacocks?

Anyway, I saw you working in your garden,

and I had a few cuttings, so I thought...

Here you are.

That's the least I can do to thank you for that lovely fruit basket.

Be kind. Give gifts.

What a bitch. If it's war she wants, she can have it.

That's what I've been saying all along. But how?

Those Sandsborough folk are falling for that charade with their eyes wide open.

She has us over a barrel, that barrel.

Maybe they aren't so bad.

The ninjas.

Oh, my little deck hand. You hang out with those Sandsborough kids too much.

Keep away from those ninjas.

Did you draw this? Beautiful.

And so peace returned to Sandsborough thanks to the heroic Michael Bridgman

and the extremely brave Elizabeth Dudley.

Did this really happen?

That was when we fought Crooked Cornelius. The archenemy of...

Whose archenemy?

Mine.

And my parents'.

But he didn't stand a chance.

You aren't going to fight again, are you?

- Why would we do that? - I don't know, but pirates and ninjas?

Archenemies? Eternal feuds?

We may be enemies. But we can still be friends.

Exactly. As long as our parents don't know.

The Shinobi wanted to kill us. That's why we came here.

Cornelius blew our house up.

Only in battle do you get to know yourself and your enemy.

And that Cornelius sounds like an amazing enemy.

I'm so boring.

I don't have swords or sticks. I can't do somersaults.

I don't even have an archenemy.

I'll fight with you.

Kind of you. But that's not the same.

Really?

All that fuss with those feuds is such a waste of time.

Their parents should just understand each other's point of view.

- What? - Now you sound just like your mom.

Sorry. I didn't mean it that way.

I've got it.

What are you talking about?

I have a plan to stop that feuding, forever.

What kind of plan?

Leave that to the 'extremely brave Elizabeth Dudley'.

And the heroic Michael Bridgman.

I smell chicken.

What a waste.

It's from the ninjas.

What do they want?

A dinner date? To get to know each other better.

So that the Sandsborough residents don't have to suffer,

because of our eternal feud.

I'm not going. It must be a trap.

She can't think we'd enter that sea lion's den.

- It must be a trap. - Attack.

It's not at the pirates' house. It's on neutral grounds. At Elizabeth's.

At our house?

Dad is chairman of the Neighborhood Watch.

That's true, sweetheart.

And you always say: "Eat together, live together."

Yes, that's also true. You're always saying that.

P.S. This is a "No Weapons" party.

No weapons? Creaking Kraken. Billy, what do you think?

I think it's an awesome plan. It'll be fun.

- I think we should go. - Did I ask for your opinion?

If we don't go, all of Sandsborough will think we're afraid.

And?

My parents think that the ninjas have invited them.

And my mom thinks that she's been invited by you guys.

And my mom thinks it's all her idea.

It's always the same, Roy.

Betsie wants to go to a party so I have to get washed again.

I had a bath just two weeks ago.

- Good afternoon. - Will you stop that sneaking around?

It's you.

Naked willy.

Good afternoon.

Landlubbers.

- Hector, are you coming? - Yeah.

Stab them.

First, first, first, first.

And if we win again this year, I'll have to buy a new dresser.

Are they already here?

Of course. We can tell the time.

And already I know the time is nigh.

Hector, what's with your leg? You can't take part in the Village Games like that.

I wasn't planning to.

Perhaps we can all introduce ourselves?

To break the ice.

Mia, tell me: Where do you come from? How did you end up here?

I'd rather not talk about the past too much. I prefer to look to the future.

Typical ninja.

Never tells the honest truth, as a real pirate would.

Honest? Pirates? Just like Captain Thunderbeard, you mean?

Captain Thunderbeard was a hero.

One person's hero can be another's oppressor.

Would anyone like another drink? There's ice.

Sweetheart, if our guests want to argue...

But wasn't Captain Thunderbeard attacked by ninjas?

Definitely not.

Just like water, the truth has many forms, it seems yet again.

One of the most important stories from our mutual history,

and he doesn't know what really happened?

He's called Billy.

The story about the Sword of the Elements is part of your upbringing.

Just a minute. Are you trying to say that I haven't raised my kid well?

- I would never say that. - No, but that's what you meant.

Betsie. Mia. Calm down.

We all know how complicated that is, right, Betsie?

Growing kids and all that.

Elizabeth can also be a handful at times.

- Mom, get real. - See, that's what I mean.

And it must be really tough for you, Mia. On your own, with no husband.

Yuka and I cope perfectly well together.

Her father abandoned me before she was born.

So his choice became mine.

Okay, would anyone like something to drink? There's coke, rice wine, rum...

Wise words, neighbor. I'd like another little nip.

Then sit down. You've been standing up like an idiot all evening.

Oh, Hector...

Betrayal.

- There were to be no weapons. - Hello. And what do you have there?

Ho. No fighting here. No fighting.

It was a trap. Exactly as I predicted.

It wasn't a trap.

- They brought weapons. - So did you.

Because those pirates can't be trusted. That has been proven tonight.

All that's been proven is that you don't trust each other.

You only think about fighting.

I've had to. All my life. To protect myself.

To protect us.

Just a minute, sailor. I don't think I heard you right.

Are your ears full of seaweed, Hector?

Billy and his friends sent that invitation.

All that stuff with Captain Thunderbeard is so long ago. We thought that...

My very own son is starting a mutiny against me.

Well, a mutiny...

Yes, a mutiny. You're even more headstrong than your grandpa.

Off with his head.

What were you planning? To make friends with them?

Don't be such an idiot.

We hate them. They hate us. Don't make it harder than it is.

He can't help it that you took that sword along.

So it's my fault now, is it?

- No. - No...

- Yes. - Yes...

- Maybe. - Now I've heard it all.

I can expect dad to try and stab me in my back.

Stab him in the back.

But you and I, Betsie,

we should be navigating the same course.

What are you looking at?

How did you know I was here?

You aren't that quiet, for a ninja.

If you want to fight, I'll leave.

No.

What are you doing here?

I sometimes come here to think.

Really? A pirate who thinks.

I thought you didn't want to fight.

My father was so angry that he has left.

And he still hasn't come back.

That has never happened before.

Luckily, you don't have that problem: parents who argue.

No, luckily not.

I just have a father who is never there. That's much better.

Is that your mom?

Let's go.

Creaking Kraken.

Oh yeah.

Not a step closer, scallywag.

Turn around. Then I'll show you what I do to intruders.

Blunderbuss?

You have no idea how long I've dreamed of this moment. Finally, revenge.

How did you find me?

Simply followed the smell of rotten eel and smelly sardines.

Bare your sword and fight like a real pirate.

Come on.

Cornelius, I haven't come to fight.

- I mean it, Cornelius. - You should have thought of that before.

I've got you now, you old sea dog.

I need your help, Cornelius.

If you're asking for my help, you must really be in trouble.

I am. It involves the ninjas.

Ninjas?

Grub.

Rum?

Get it yourself, gaffer. There's nothing wrong with your claws.

Look who's there.

I thought you'd also made a run for it, just like your father.

No, I... I was at Michael's.

At Michael's?

- Yes. - Nice.

Nice.

Ninjas. If I'd have known that, I'd never have attacked you.

The hell with it. It felt good, hey?

It did, indeed. Fighting like true pirates.

Up front and open. Not that sneaky ninja rubbish.

But those swords they have... top quality. I have to admit.

Is that...

I've also had to deal with the ninjas.

Since those pajama wearers have been in Sandsborough...

Betsie and I have done nothing but argue.

You and Betsie? Argue?

We pirates lead a lonely life, Hector. Always searching for gold and jewels.

- Busy looting and plundering. - How great is that.

It is, but if there is one thing I've learned in life,

it's that you should only fight with your enemies. Never with your wife.

You know Betsie. It's not going to be easy.

What you and Betsie have is more valuable than any treasure.

Even the Sword of the Elements can't top that.

Don't let a couple of ninjas ruin that.

Protect your love like you protect your own treasure chest.

With swords and pistols.

- It's a metaphor, Hector. - Right, a metaphor. I knew that.

And you're right. The time has come to return to my home port.

I won't let my relationship be ruined by Mia Katana.

Thank you for your help, Cornelius.

You are the best archenemy I have.

WANTED: DEAD OR ALIVE

Mia Katana.

Finally, I've found you. In Sandsborough. How crazy is that.

Rock.

Water.

Rock.

Roots in the ground.

Again.

I don't want to do this anymore, mom.

Okay. Five-minute break.

That's not what I mean.

I don't want to do this anymore. This. It doesn't work.

Everywhere we go, we make enemies. I also want some friends.

So, another tactic.

You expect to get a better result through acting charming and friendly.

No. No tactics. Not acting friendly, just being it. If you can do that.

Friendship comes after trust. And trust has to be earned.

What does that mean? Talk to me instead of at me.

What a mess we're in. Fallen out with your father.

Fallen out with the ninjas.

It doesn't get any Blunderbussier than this.

- Bulls eye. - And that thing between you and Yuka.

You can tell me anything, sailor. You know that, right?

- I know. - So, if there's anything...

There's nothing.

Really?

The fact that you and Yuka like each other, that's nothing?

Busted.

Moms know that kind of thing, matey.

For sure, when they see you together at the lighthouse.

Yes. Oh. And be glad that it wasn't her down the street who saw you,

because for sure Mia Katana wouldn't have reacted as calmly as I have.

Keep away from that girl.

Because I don't want to lose you, fresh water mackerel.

Yoho and a bottle of coke.

Keep your mouth shut about this.

- Hector. - Betsie. Billy. I'm back.

You took your time, Hector Hieronymus Blunderbuss.

- I had to think things through. - That must have hurt.

I shouldn't have been so headstrong.

If there's one thing that I've learned in life, it's that...

What was it?

That you should only fight with your enemies, never with your wife.

What we have is more valuable than any treasure.

I won't let that be taken away by a thousand ninjas.

Hector...

Betsie.

- How do you do that? - I can teach you.

Not right now.

What's up?

Do you remember that we saw my mom from the lighthouse?

Yes.

She saw us too.

She hasn't told my dad.

Yet. But if my dad finds out...

Or my mom. She'd go totally crazy.

And she'd back it up with some stupid proverb.

Like: We may be enemies. But we can still be friends?

- My mom would never say that. - But you would.

And what now?

Nothing, for now. We have to be more careful

and make sure they don't see us together.

- We aren't doing anything wrong. - No. And we'll keep it that way.

Sneakily.

Ninjas do everything sneakily. You know that, right?

Out of the way.

- Betsie, what are you doing? - I've had enough.

All that snooping and spying. We're acting like a couple of ninjas.

Ho, no swearing.

We're not going to hide away. We don't have to be friends with her,

but can't we just get along like grown-ups?

There's not a scale on my body that thinks that way.

Are we starting that again?

I thought you only wanted to fight with your enemies and not with your wife.

That's right. I want to fight with her down the street.

- But that's not what I want. - So what do you want?

- We want a truce. - A truce?

We can live in the same street without killing each other.

As grown-ups, right?

You can't win.

A loser can only win through a truce.

Oh yeah? Well, you can't shoot with a sword.

Think about that one.

- Hector. - How great it is to see you like this.

Our old new neighbors and our new new neighbors. Together.

After that story about the eternal feud

between ninjas and Captain Pricklebeard...

Thunderbeard.

That one, yes, bla bla bla, I'd never have expected this.

So nice that you're reaching out. You're becoming real Sandsboroughers.

Hey, hey, cool it.

Yes. I'll be off. You carry on chatting.

Listen, it's not nice for the neighbors if we're at each other's throats.

And then using the villagers as an excuse.

A perfect example of a sign of weakness.

Oh really? Well, I'll show you a sign of weakness...

Are you trying to say that we're weak?

- I'd never say that. - No, but that's what you meant.

I just want to say that in the long, long, long history of our feud,

a pirate has never yet defeated a ninja.

So ninjas are better than pirates?

- Everyone knows that. - Really? Well, prove it.

- I challenge you to a duel. - I accept the challenge.

Finally.

- Mom. Don't do this. - Dad. Wait.

Step aside, Billy. I can't attack like this.

You too, Yuka. If the wind is blowing your way...

You should never change your sails.

This is ridiculous. If you really have to fight, then do it at the, at the...

- At the Village Games. - The what?

It's some sports competition those crazy landlubbers hold to see who's the best.

Ridiculous. You don't need a competition for that. Ninjas are, of course.

- No. Pirates are. - Shut up. Both of you.

Those scrawny kids are right. We'll fight it out at the Village Games.

Then it will be clear, once and for all, who is the best.

Unless you daren't.

Yuka and I will wipe the floor with you.

We'll soon see about that. Come on.

It's turned out great.

Hasn't it just? But I'd never have done it without your mom.

- She is so handy with a screwdriver. - Spanner.

That's what I mean.

I don't think Billy wants to be a team with me anymore.

- At the Village Games. - What?

What now?

Can we maybe do it together?

You mean...

- Just like old times? - Yes.

And this will be our year. I can feel it.

Team Bridgman.

1 MORE DAY

We are the pirate heroes we show no signs of fear

- We will fight those ninjas - Just like Captain Thunderbeard

The past gives me direction The present gives me strength

To be able to fight the fight Keep those pirates at arm's length

Because we will win

No, we will win

Because we will win

No, we will win

No, we will win

We will win

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Village Games.

Round One: the South West Assault Course is about to begin.

First, the participants have to hit the target with a slingshot.

It doesn't matter.

No, dad, he missed. He missed.

Our new neighbor, Mia Katana, is in the lead.

Closely followed by four-time Village Games Champion, Hannah Dudley.

From here, it's up the net, into the dunes, to claim the flag,

and then down the slide, to the finish line.

Mia Katana is first to grab the flag, then Billy and Yuka,

with Hector Blunderbuss in their wake.

Cheat.

There is the finish line.

Mia Katana is first over the line.

But where's her team mate?

They only get the point when both team members cross the line.

Billy Blunderbuss is also home, but Yuka Katana is the first to get a point.

Hector Blunderbuss is last across the finish line.

Keelhaul him.

The winners of Round One are Mia and Yuka Katana.

It's time for Round Two: Bucket Up.

Round Two? So soon?

Should we ask for a postponement, so you can get your breath back?

Mia Katana.

On your marks.

Quick, quick. Come on.

On the end of the balance beam hang buckets,

that have to be filled with water.

Or rum.

They have been ingeniously attached using sharp arrows.

They'll soon see who's the best.

The first team to pop their balloon with an arrow, wins this round.

I feel a storm coming on.

I saw that, cheat. The usual pirate tactics.

Keep going. Yes, go, now. Go go go. Yes.

The winners of this round,

are my fabulous wife and daughter, Team Dudley.

What an unbiased referee.

Can you remember it all?

To the Shinobi. Stop. Mia Katana found. Stop.

Location: Sandsborough. Stop. Reward in cash. Stop.

Well done. Off you go.

Reward in nuts. Stop.

Yeah, right, greedy thing.

Okay then. Off you go.

Time for the third and final round for today: Higher Up.

The participants have to show they can battle against each other,

but also work together.

Losers. Losers.

The first team: Hector Blunderbuss.

And Robert Bridgman.

Hey, way to go, right, neighbor? Cool.

Then... Michael, you are with Elizabeth.

Mia Katana and Mrs. Dudley.

And Yuka Katana and Billy Blunderbuss.

What? I won't be on a team with that ninja girl.

And I don't want to be with that thing there.

Come on, Dudley.

It was a fair draw. Rules are rules, Mr. Blunderbuss.

Loserbus.

Listen carefully, whatever happens, you mustn't win.

We're ahead. Make sure you win.

All teams build the highest tower they can from car tires.

The team to climb their tower first and claim the shell,

wins this round.

Hector, hurry up, come on.

- Here. - What are you doing? That won't work.

- Can you do it better? - I can't do worse.

No hands.

Come on, Michael.

I thought you could do better. We're winning.

Not for long.

- They think they're better than us. - Do you want to let them win?

- No way. - Me neither. Get building.

Hector.

We'll never catch them up.

Unless... Hold your hands like this.

- Keep them like that. - Hurry up then.

I've got you.

Yuka Katana and Billy Blunderbuss win this round,

and both win a point for their team.

The score at the end of Day 1:

Team Dudley and Team Blunderbuss each have 1 point.

And Team Katana is in the lead with 2 points.

We're going home, right now.

The Soapbox Race starts tomorrow at 11 o'clock.

It's still anybody's game.

Son of a beer barrel. That was a hard knock on my coconut.

Who won?

Let's be clear about this. We're out of this competition.

What?

And you know why.

No, I don't get it. We did nothing wrong. We're just friends.

Friends. You and that pirate boy?

He's called Billy.

I understand that you want friends. But it's my job to protect you.

From my friends?

Friends and enemies have a lot in common.

They can only hurt you if you let them get close.

How would you know that? You don't even let me get close.

- Did you really say that? - Yes.

Brave.

Or stupid.

I think it's brave.

She just doesn't understand me. And I don't understand her.

Perhaps you're more like your father.

Yeah. Maybe.

But I'll never find that out.

There's so much I don't know. You get used to it.

Cornelius.

Your archenemy? What's he doing here?

No idea. But wherever Cornelius is, there's trouble. Come on.

- What are you going to do? - Fetch my parents. Or your mom.

They'll only make it worse. We'd be better doing it ourselves.

Or are you afraid?

No.

Come on. Or we'll lose him.

Just one more bottle

The bottle is empty

The bottle is empty, my glass is full

Billy Blunderbuss.

What a pleasure to see you again.

You've learned some new tricks, I see. From Mia, I guess.

- How do you know my mother? - Your mother?

No idea. Who doesn't know the legendary Mia Katana?

I asked how you knew her.

I had the pleasure of working with her for a while.

Yeah. For sure. She hates pirates.

Understandable. Taking everything into consideration.

Don't listen to him. He always lies.

Is that right? And when did I last lie to you?

Let's see.

"Come with me, Billy. I'll be like a father to you."

Whereas you just wanted my parents to follow you, for a fight.

Touché. But I'm not lying about this.

Prove it. Where did you meet? And when?

Do you know the story of Captain Thunderbeard?

Of course. That's the one with the special sword, right?

- The Sword of the Elements. - You know your history.

It goes without saying that such a historic sword

is the ultimate booty for a pirate of my stature.

It took some time but finally, via a trader from Soy Pé,

I got my hands on the map.

The map that would lead me to the legendary cave...

What kind of cave? What are you talking about?

The cave where Captain Thunderbeard was said to have hidden his sword.

- At least-- - What has this to do with my mom?

Does he always talk so much?

Along with sword fighting, looting and plundering, it's one of my specialties.

Welcome back to the second day of the Village Games.

We are getting ready for the Sandsborough Soapbox Race.

But not with us.

- We're stepping down. - Excuse me?

This social experiment is over. I no longer want Yuka and...

Billy? Where is he?

I thought he was at Michael's.

Billy? Don't worry. I saw him leave with Yuka this morning.

- Leave? Where to? - We'll find them.

You're not going.

You had the map. You were on your way to the cave, and then?

I thought I had the whole map.

But the trader from Soy Pé turned out to be a con man.

He'd only sold me half of the map.

After a constructive discussion, he told me who he had sold the other half to.

To your mother.

Billy. Yuka. Where are you?

They're here. Blast...

Mia.

Betsie. Hector. It's been a while.

He says he knows you. From the past.

Why did you lie to that girl?

- He's not lying. - He isn't?

Now that we've confirmed that I'm telling the truth,

will one of you be so kind as to set me free? Hector?

Billy?

Come on. Tell us more.

Where were you?

- The trader from Soy Pé. - The two halves of the map.

I wanted her half. She wanted my half of the map.

So, after a peaceful, calm discussion,

we decided that it would be better to work together.

Of course, we didn't trust each other at first.

Ninjas and pirates. It's like water and fire. But later on, that changed.

The wonderful irony of it.

The Sword of the Elements, that had driven pirates and ninjas apart,

brought us together.

Together, we could find the cave and the sword.

But evil always chooses the shortest path.

The Shinobi, a split-off ninja clan, was also looking for the sword.

Under the cover of night, they had followed us.

We fought, side by side, Mia and I.

From that moment, I knew...

there was more than fighting, looting and plundering.

Is that right? Such as?

Love, Hector. Love.

Yeah, yeah, love. I knew that.

In the heat of the battle, Ken had managed to claim the Sword and flee.

But it didn't matter.

We had each other,

and our biggest adventure still lay ahead of us.

Billy?

- What's all this? - What do you think, Hector?

Your son and her daughter really like one another.

Is that right?

Yes. That's right.

But... she's a ninja.

You said yourself that I could love whoever I wanted.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Whoever, except a ninja. I thought that was clear.

It will only cause trouble. You can see that through these two.

Would you tone it down a bit? Mia and I were extremely happy.

There he goes again, sweet talking.

If you were so crazy about that gal, why didn't you stay with her?

Is that what you told them?

You left me.

Just as unexpectedly as you turned up in my life,

so suddenly you disappeared from it.

But why?

There's only one person who knows that, lassie. And it's not me.

It was going well. Very well.

But even the hardest rock can finally be worn away by a running stream.

So I had to leave. Only, I didn't know then...

that you were on your way.

Cornelius is your father.

What?

She is my daughter?

- Yuka... - All this time...

All those so-called wise words. All those lies.

You should have told me.

She always told me that he left.

That my father abandoned us. Betrayed us.

And that it didn't matter, because we had each other.

But isn't that true?

Come on. This is Cornelius.

He's a perfectly good archenemy, extremely untrustworthy...

Then he's a good match for my mom.

Perhaps I don't really understand how that parenting thing works,

it's still all so new to me,

but shouldn't one of us go and talk to our daughter... to Yuka?

And by one of us, I really mean you.

You're right.

You don't understand a thing about parenting.

They're coming. They're coming.

What's that bird talking about?

I'm guessing that there's a big chance that shortly,

we can expect some rather disagreeable company.

Cornelius.

- I told the Shinobi that you're here. - What?

They could be here at any minute.

You sold me out to the Shinobi?

I was mad at you.

Still? After all these years?

I tried to let it go, but I'm afraid I'm a revengeful type.

Comes with the job. But let me start by saying:

If I'd have known that you... that Yuka... that I had a daughter, then...

Then you wouldn't have sent a gang of assassins after me? Very comforting.

They're looking for the Sword of the Elements.

And for some stupid reason, they think you have it.

We can beat them.

I'd rather opt for a somewhat more diplomatic approach.

- That would be a first. - You also fell for my smile, right?

- Ken. - Where is Mia Katana?

After all these years, still not a man for a chit chat, I guess?

- Where is she? - No idea. I'm afraid I made a mistake.

Shame about the reward, but that's how it goes. You can just leave again.

- And the Sword of the Elements? - Never heard of it.

It's not advisable to threaten me like that on your own, Ken.

Who says I'm on my own?

And who says I'm on my own?

That ear-splitting silence?

Look. She's here after all. Hand over that reward.

Run.

Get them.

- Hey? - What's up?

Look.

Come on.

- Is that... - Yes.

- And are they... - Yes.

I know that sea dog is our archenemy, but...

He's the only one we have. We have to be careful with him.

After them.

Enough is enough. Okay, we've waited long enough.

Everyone on their marks.

Get ready.

There they go.

- Yeah. - Elizabeth.

Come on, Michael.

The participants are approaching the straights.

- I'm winning. - What's that?

Watch out, road hog.

- That was Cornelius. - What?

- Cornelius. - Cornelius?

There's a lot going on. Yellow flag. Yellow flag.

- Who are those guys? - And where are Billy and Yuka?

Your mom.

- Mom... - I should have told you the truth.

- But I daren't. - You. Didn't dare to do something?

It's not only closed books that have secrets.

You go ahead. I'll be fine. Billy.

Need some help?

Good timing. There's no use running away from yourself. I should know.

- I wasn't running away from myself. - No? Who from then?

From the Shinobi? From me?

That too. I knew how I had to fight...

And you still do.

But not how I should feel.

Attack.

- Stop. - Elizabeth?

This is against the rules.

- Michael? - Dad, mom.

Hector.

This is much more fun than those stupid Village Games.

Neighbor. Over here.

Duck.

- Mom, here. - Sweetheart, what are you doing?

- Helping my friends. - Be careful.

Rum.

You should have told me about Yuka.

I didn't think you'd want to be a father.

If you'd have asked me, I'd have been able to choose.

Look at that. Just like we were when we first met.

We were a good team. And we could be again.

Is there any point in putting a crushed flower in a new vase?

I only see the flower.

Where are you going?

Run.

- Nice going, Billy. - So now you think it's okay?

Look at that, Betsie. True love.

I can see even more.

Mom? Mom? Where is she?

She ran away. I think. Stick with me. With your father.

- There are too many of them. - They're closing in on us.

Yuka, if I'd have known about you, us... I'd have come looking for you.

Ken.

- Call your men off. - Why would I do that?

Because I have what you're looking for.

- The Sword of the Elements. - I knew it.

This battle has gone on long enough, Ken.

If we carry on fighting, eye to eye, soon everyone will be blind.

It's not worth it. Let them go and the sword is yours.

Finally.

But Mom, your whole life revolved around that sword.

You're right.

But it's time it revolved around something else.

And what about us?

Is there an "us"?

Not yet. But there could be. If that's what you want.

We were a good team today.

Perhaps our biggest adventure still lies ahead of us.

But you and me, here in Sandsborough?

No.

Let's leave together.

Together?

The three of us. If that's what you want.

The three of us?

You can decide. I've told you what to do for long enough.

And? Do you know what you're going to do?

I think I'm going.

Really?

I mean, yesterday, I didn't even know I had a father, and now...

You could also stay here.

When we first met, did you ever think...

that we could be friends?

No. That's the last thing I thought of.

But I'm glad that I gave you a chance.

You gave me a chance?

Here. Take care of it, because I'll be back for it.

I'll miss you.

I'll miss you too.

Come on. Welcome on board.

- We thought you might need a friend. - Or two.

For Yuka.
