NARRATOR: Thie is the story
of a time long ago.

A time of myth and legend.

When the earth
was still young....

The ancient gods
were petty and cruel...

and they played mankind
for their sport.

( Groans, Screaming )

Plaguing them with suffering,
besieging them with terrors.

( Laughing )

For centuries, the people had nowhere
to turn, no one to look to for help,

Until... he arrived.

He was man
like no other.

Born of a beautiful
mortal woman,

- but fathered by Zeus, king of the gods.
- ( Thunderclap )

Hercules possessed a strength
the world had never seen.

A strength surpassed
only by the power of his heart.

But everywhere he went he was
tormented by his stepmother Hera,

the all-powerful
queen of the gods.

Hera's eternal obsession
was to destroy Hercules,

for he was the constant
living reminder of Zeus' infidelity.

No matter the obstacle, as long
as there were people crying for help,

there was one man
who would never rest.

Hercules.

Shhh.

Don't try to speak.
Let me get you something.

Wait out here.

Father?

Father! Father! Wait!

Let me in!

Hercules.

( Gasping )

You sure you want
to come in here?

I'm sure.

( Gasps )

We keep going.

These were all young men
from my village.

The Witch who guards
the fountain killed them...

for their youth, their strength,
to prolong their own foul life.

You have to end this terror.
If I lead you to the fountain--

I'll take care of the Witch,
like I said I would.

( Thumping )

Kill her, Hercules!
Kill the Witch!

Help me.

( Grunts )

Now, Hercules, I will have the
greatest strength of them all:

Yours.

( Grunting )

( Grunts )

( Grunts )

( Grunts )

( Groaning )

( Yells, Grunting )

- ( Grunts )
- ( Thumping )

( Yelling )

( Groaning, Grunts )

( Grunting Continues )

Noo-oo!
( Screaming )

It's all right.
You're safe now.

Please, let's leave.
I want to go home.

Not yet.

All right.
Now we can go.

( Whimpering )

ZEUS: Grab my hand.
Come on.

Well... you're just in time. I don't think
I could have made it without you.

And you say your father
never helps, huh?

What have we here?

Thank you, Hercules.
Thank you for resucing me.

Excuse me, miss,
but, uh, I helped too.

You're not quite
out of danger yet.

Not 'til I get you away
from this old man here.

I'll be fine. My village is just
through the trees there.

Thank you.

Good-bye.

Good-bye.

( Chuckles )
Any more of those down here?

No, I'm, uh-- I'm afraid
that's the last one.

Oh, just my luck.

What are you doing
down here?

Oh, I, uh--
I came for this.

It 's a potion
cure Cheiron's wound.

At least that's what I hope.

Always helping people.

You know, son, I wish we could
spend more time together.

- I'd love to.
- You would?

Yeah.

Listen, I know
this beautiful mountain.

We could talk and talk.
Nobody knows about it.

Not even Hera.
( Laughing )

Well, that sounds
exactly like what I need.

We could be there
in a few seconds.

Oh, well, I uh--
I can't go right now.

I've gotta get back
with this potion.

You care more about your friend
than your father, huh?

No... I don't.

I can't.
We'll do it soon.

Soon.

- Hey, next time.
- All right.

- I promise.
- Good.

There may not be a next time.

- Ahhh!
- Stop!

If you're a friend,
you'll know the password.

And if you're a foe, you'll know
the bite of our swords.

No, don't. No, please.
Uh, I'm a friend.

Is the Password "minotaur"?

Is the password "pargonaut"?

( Boys Laughing )

Is the password... "tickle"?

( Boys Laughing, Yelling )

- Hercules, no fair!
- that's not the password!

( Laughing ) All right, men,
take me to your leader.

( Straining )

( Wound Tearing, Groaning )

( Boys Laughing )

Father, Father!
Look who's here!

It must be comeone special,
the way you two are carrying on.

Sorry to disappoint you,
Cheiron. It's only me.

( Laughs ) Ah, such a surprise.
I didn't expect it.

I almost didn't make it.
I barely got past your guards.

WOMAN: Did I hear someone say Hercules?

- Amalthea, how are you?
- ( Baby Cries )

You didn't tell me
your son was born already.

That's because he hasn't another son.
He's got a daughter. Her name's Kora.

Look at her. She's beautiful,
just like her mother.

( Laughs ) Well, that's just got you
invited for dinner.

And if you two are finished,
you should head off to bed.

Oh, we want to stay.
We want to hear stories.

It's a little bit late for stories tonight,
so go no now, you two.

Atta boy.

BOTH: Good night, Hercules.

Good night, boys.

How's your wound?

Oh, it's not too bad.

Maybe a little worse.

Well, I've got something
here to change all that.

Another curse, Hercules?

This one's going to work.
I can feel it.

I appreciate your efforts,
but we have tried everything.

We haven't tried this.

Here.

Oh, it would be nice to be whole.

To be a real father, a real husband.

Anything?

No. Nothing.

Wait a minute. I feel something.

It's working.

It's working, Hercules!

I knew it!
I knew this cure was the one!

( Both Laughing )

( Groaning )

- ( Groaning )
- Maybe it needs more time.

- No.
- Or a bigger dose.

No. You've done enough.

I just want to forget about it.

( Rumbling )

( Rumbling Continues )

MAN: Oh, what's that?

( Chattering )

( Hercules Laughs ) How about when
that palace guard tried to stop you.

- ( Laughs )
- Poor guy never knew what hit him.

( Laughing )
Oh, those were better days.

You know, back then I used to think there
was nothing better than being immortal,

knowing I'd live forever.

Do you remember how
I used to brag about it?

HERCULES: I remember.

Aw, I suppose if I'd known my fate was
going to be to live like this forever--

Oh, hey, I-- I didn't
mean it like that, really.

I just meant, I shouldn't have done
so much bragging, that's all.

Still, you've got Amalthea and the
kids. They're pretty great.

Yeah.

You know, the more I love 'em,
the more it's gonna hurt...

to watch 'em all grow old
and die someday.

Immortality.

What I wouldn't give just
to grow old and die with them.

( Rumbling, Wind Gusting )

Hercules, what's happening?

Something's wrong.

Look, it's happening all over the town.
The fires are dying.

Cheiron, what's going on?
It's suddenly so cold.

Hercules, why would
all the fires be dying?

Not all the fires. Look there.

I don't understand
what's happening.

Neither do I.

But I'm going to find out.

( Baby Fussing )

( Chattering )

MAN: No, you can't come in.

WOMAN: Please, just let us come in. Our
fires have dies, yours are still going.

MAN: I said no, so be gone.
Get away from here, all of you.

WOMAN: But these people are desperate.
You have to let us have some of your fire.

MAN: We don't have to do
anything of the kind.

All right, look. Just let me light this,
and I'll restart their fires.

I can't help you. This fire
is for the Great Goddess Hera.

Some Great Goddess! She's not lifting a
finger to help. None of your damn gods do!

You can't come in.

All right... what if I pay?

Exactly what have you got in mind?

I'm thinking, uh... a hundred dinars.

- Fifty dinars.
- Fifty dinars?

- All right, fine, 50 dinars.
- No, w-wait. I said--

- You said 50 dinars.
- I-I did, but I wasn't agreeing to 50 dinars.

- Okay, fine, then 30 dinars.
- I didn't say 30, I said 50.

Do you think of yourself
as an intelligent man?

Well, I like to think so, yeah.

Well, then you would think that
20 dinars would be a good deal.

- No, wait, wait.
- Fine, 20 dinars it is. You drive a hard bargain.

You can keep your money. These
fools don't deserve a single dinar.

I'll get the fire you need.

Excuse me? I thought I was doing
a pretty good job here.

What do you propose to do?

( Grunts )

Hera's vermin keep warm
while everyone else is cold.

That's not gonna work.

Stop! This is sacrilege!

I'm gonna light this from your fire. If
that bothers you, then look the other way.

( Grunting )

( Grunting Continues )

( Murmuring ) What do you think
is going to happen?

What are you doing?
You have to talk to these people.

You need to negotiate with them.

Where Hera's scum are concerned,
this is negotiating.

I hit them, they hit
the floor, deal's done.

Now, if you excuse me, I'll be
right back with your fire.

You have defiled the
sanctity of Hera's temple.

( Warriors Yelling )

I don't know who you are, but you're
not getting out of here alive.

Then you're right...
you don't know who I am.

PRIEST: Kill him!

( Grunting Continues )

PRIEST: What are you waiting for?

- ( All Groan )
- WOMAN: You angered the gods.

Oops.

All of you! Kill him!

( Yelling, Grunting Continues )

( Screaming )

( Murmuring )

( Indistinct Chattering )

( Grunts )

Here you go. No trouble at all.

( Groaning )

You fools! That torch
will do you no good.

Hera is destroying all fire.

This sickness you call mankind
has offended her long enough.

Soon your world will be frozen.

Not one of your wretched
souls will survive.

( Laughing )

Do you see what you have done?

You have taken what little hope
these people have and destroyed it.

I destroyed it?
I was trying to help you.

We didn't want your help.
We didn't even need your help!

How can this be? Do you know
what will happen if all fire dies?

No mortal will survive.

I can't bear to lose my family.
I don't want to be alone again.

I know. I won't let that happen.

I'm gonna find out what Hera's
up to and put a stop to it.

I'm coming with you. ( Groans )

( Groaning )

Cheiron... you can't.

Hercules...

I was a great warrior once,
and I fought great battles.

Now, instead of a sword,
I carry this.

I'll find a way
to bring back fire.

I promise.

Cheiron, Deianeira is here.
She says she needs to see you.

Cheiron, I'm sorry to disturb you,
but I need your help.

There's nothing I can do.

But you're immortal, and you know
the ways of the gods. Please.

Deianeira, I'm crippled.

There's only one man that can
help you, and that's Hercules.

Hercules! Of course!
Do you know where I can find him?

You're Hercules? You can't be.

( Laughs ) You must be mistaken.

He's not mistaken.
I am Hercules.

Then we're in big trouble.

- Look, uh, miss--
- Deianeira.

Well, look, Deianeira, I'm gonna find out
what's happening to fire and put it back.

Hmm. I can feel it
getting warmer already.

Look, I need to find
where Prometheus lives.

- ( Hercules Chuckles )
- What?

Prometheus is the God of Fire. I would
think that would be a good place to start.

Do you think you're gonna casually
walk over there and drop in on him?

- I'm going to try.
- It's a long way. It's not an easy trek.

- Then you know where he lives.
- Yeah, I do.

Great.
Then you can take me there.

What happened to "I didn't want your
help. I don't need your help"?

It's turned into "I don't want
your help, but I have no choice."

DEIANEIRA: When get to Prometheus,

I think it's best
if I do the talking.

Why is that?

Because if I let you
do the talking, you won't.

You'll smash his skull, and violence
always causes more trouble than it solves.

Oh, I don't know. Some things in this
world respond better to fists.

- Simple as that.
- Try talking once in a while you might be surprise.

So, Cheiron tells me you own most
of the land in this town.

- Why don you care?
- Oh, I'm just trying to do a little talking.

Everything from the Foothills
to the Aerius River...

I inherited from
my father when he died.

He was a great man.
He was a great father too.

Before he died, we used to talk about
what he wanted to do with this town.

He really wanted
to make it something.

I had hoped to finish, but it was
tougher than I thought.

But now I just, uh--

Am I boring you?

Oh, no. It's not that.

Oh, yes, it is. I know
what interests Hercules.

Slaying monsters, cracking heads...

rescuing a few maidens,
the easy conquer now and then.

Well, I guess you know all about me.

Mmm, I know enough.

Right.

All right, let's talk about what
does interest you: Cheiron.

I want to know
what happened to him.

He was a wound that never heals.
He's in constant agony.

But I thought if you were
immortal, you were invincible.

Not if the wound is inflicted by someone
else with immortal blood in their veins.

He's gonna suffer like that
for eternity? That's horrible.

Oh, there's a-- There's a cure
for him out there somewhere.

Just haven't found it yet.

We've been walking for hours,
and this is where we end up?

I thought you knew
the way to Prometheus.

This is the way. You can stay and
rest. I'll be back in a while.

And I promise I'll only...
talk to him.

Or you can make things a little
more exciting by breaking your neck.

( Panting )

Welcome to the house
of Prometheus, last of the Titans.

( Birds Squawking )

Come on.
You'll be a lot warmer inside.

( Birds Squawking )

( Birds Squawking )

Prometheus! Prometheus,
it's Hercules!

Maybe you better wait out here.

Ooh, it's colder in here
than it is out there.

Do you ever do what
people tell you to do?

No. Do you?

Well, just... stay behind me.

Something is really wrong here.
This place should be an inferno.

In the name of the gods!

Is he dead?

( Groaning )

- Hercules?
- Yes, Prometheus, it's me.

The torch.
You must retrieve the torch.

Wait. Don't try to speak.
I'll free you.

No, it's no use. Listen to me.

The Eternal Torch. It's been taken.

You must get it back.
Do you understand me?

You must get it back
before the torch dies out.

It was Hera who stole it,
wasn't it?

Yes. She's taken it to Mount Ethion.

I took fire from the heavens so that
man would have knowledge...

to help him grow. ( Wheezing )

Don't let my efforts
be destroyed!

Go to Mt. Ethion.

Find the torch.

Free it from Hera's evil grasp.

Don't worry, Prometheus.
I'll find the torch.

My life is not the only one
in your hands, Hercules.

If the torch dies,
all life dies with it.

MAN: All of it. Throw all of it in.

WOMAN: We need more. We need
a greater sacrifice than this.

( Child Whimpering )
I'm hungry.

( Crying )

Why don't you see if
those two are all right?

What are you people doing?

Making sacrifices. You'd be
wise to do the same.

So the gods will forgive us
and give back our fires.

But your good is arecious.
You'll starve without it.

Who might you be
to tell us what to do?

I'm Hercules.

Hercules? The Hercules?
Please, Hercules, help us.

- The fire's gone. You've got to save us.
- We need fire.

I'm trying. In the meantime, stop throwing
your food away. It won't do you any good.

- But the gods-- - Forget about the gods.
They don't care a bit about you.

Sure, sure, Hercules.

It's easy for you to go around
disrespecting the gods.

There'll always be a place at the
table for you up on Mt. Olympus.

We're at the gods' mercy.
Our faith, our sacrifices,

is all that stands
between us and death.

Leave us alone, Hercules.
You know nothing about us.

Go slay yourself a minotaur.

( People Laughing )

Thank you, Lady.

Thank you.

( Whooshing )

( Zeus Chuckles )

Nothing sweeter than the smile
on the face of a child.

Unless, of course, it's on the
face of a beautiful woman.

( Chuckles )

- You're not from around here, are you?
- No, I'm not.

I would've remembered
having met you.

May I have the pleasure of
giving you a welcoming gift?

- No, I couldn't take anything.
- Please.

It would be something
very simple.

- ( Zeus Laughs )
- Okay.

I call that... Deianeira Blossom.

- Deianeira's my name.
- It is?

Yes.

Well, then, I've
named it correctly.

- Thank you.
- ( Hercules Clears Throat )

- Hercules.
- Oh, hello, young man.

Do you two know each other?

Unfortunately.
Excuse us a momently.

Oh, Excuse me.

You want to tell me
what the hell's going on?

That's quite a traveling
companion you've got.

Can we not talk
about her right now?

That's the kind of woman
a man... dreams about.

Look-- What?

What?

How do you know
about my dream?

( Laughing ) Well, have you forgotten?
I'm King of the Gods.

Tell me, are you, uh--
are you two, uh--

N-no, we're not.

You will soon.

Would you forget about her?
I wanna know what Hera's up to.

We're talkin' about a gorgeous
woman and you want to talk about Hera?

- Yes.
- Oh, come on!

Father, she's stolen
Prometheus' torch.

She robbed the people of fire. Now don't tell
me the King of the Gods didn't know about that.

I want you to forget about it!

- Forget about it?
- Yes, forget it.

How can I forget about it?

Don't you care about people?

People all over the earth are--
are gonna freeze to death.

You don't give a damn, do you?
You don't even care.

Why do you think I spend
so much time on earth?

Because I love people; people
like your mother and yourself.

You know, when you were a child.
You used to challenge me.

( Laughs ) Oh, I loved it!

But now... you're a man.

Don't you dare defy me!

I say stay out...

and you stay out.

- ( Whooshing )
- But--

See you around, father.

- So, who was that back where?
- Back where?

You know who I mean.
That kind old man.

That was nobody just my father.

That was Zeus?
You've gotta be kidding me.

Not exactly what you'd expect
for the King of the Gods.

No, I just thought
he'd be mean, even stern.

But he was so-- so nice.
He was so charming.

You didn't fall for
those lines, did you?

It's all a disguise, believe me.

No, look, we have got to go
back there and talk to him.

He could help us.
He could bring back fire.

Probably, but he won't what's worse,
he doesn't even want me to try.

I don't understand.

Neither do I.

Still think he's such a nice old man?

( Child Whispering )

Relax. I'll get you out.

It's all right. Don't be frightened.

Hercules, what was that?

Hercules?

I don't know.
But she's gone now.

Hercules? You're-- You're him?

Yeah.

I was saved by Hercules,
the one and only! Yahoo!

Well, at least somebody's
excited to meet me.

I know all about the time you beat the
Hydra, and when you fought the Titans,

and the time you killed,
the two-headed giant Typhis!

Wait, where are my manners?
Hi, I'm Phaedra.

So, Phaedra, you wanna tell us how
a little kid ended up in that trap?

I'm not a little kid!

Okay, you wanna tell me how a big
kid like you endup in that trap?

Well, it's like this:
I was walking along a path,

when suddenly a lion jumped out
and started chasing me!

It was gigantic!
With big, sharp teeth...

and huge claws ready
to slash me to ribbons!

A lion? We didn't see any lion.

( Sighs ) Well, maybe it wasn't a lion.

But it was at least a panther.
That's why it was so fast.

And it had huge, bloody tusks
dripping with blood!

A panther... with huge, bloody tusks?

Oh, all right, already.
I was just hungry.

I was trying to get
that bait out there.

Kids like me do get hungry, you know.

Well, kids like you should be somewhere
warm. Where are your parents?

- I ain't got no parents.
- Well, where do you live?

Oh, I don't know around.

Well, then maybe you
beter come with us.

- Where are you going?
- To Mt. Ethion.

Really? And I can go with you?

No. I'm afraid it might be
a little dangerous.

But we'll drop you off
at the nearest town.

Oh, yeah? Like that'd be a lot of fun.

Pretty soon I'd have
to go to school...

and wear shoes and comb my hair.

- No, thank you.
- But, Phaedra!

Phaedra!

Phaedra, wait!

I thought you said you were
going to Mt. Ethion.

- We are.
- Then you're going the wrong way.

You should be talking that
path over there. It's a shortcut.

Are you sure?

Of course, I'm sure.
I'm always sure.

( Animal Howling )

DEIANEIRA: Someone paved the
way with stones.

HERCULES: Well, I guess Phaedra
knew what she was talking about.

DEIANEIRA: She certainly was
a fan of yours.

HERCULES: Yeah, nice kid.

DEIANEIRA: You know, I hate to say
this... but you were so good with her.

I really think someday you're
gonna make a great father.

With my life? I don't know.

I'm always off to
one place or another.

I don't want a kid who'll grop up
with a father who's never around.

DEIANEIRA: Is that what
happened to you?

- Close enough.
- You mean you didn't--

Look, maybe I didn't
make myself clear,

but my father isn't something
I want to talk about.

Well, maybe this is something
you should talk about.

Yeah, right. And with a woman who thinks
the world's problems can be solved with talking.

So, if your father
is the King of Gods--

I told you, I don't
want to talk about him.

I'm not talk about him.
I'm talking about you.

If your father is the King of Gods,
does that make you immortal?

Maybe. Maybe not.

I have his immortal blood, but my mother's
human, so I don't know what that makes me.

Ah, that must be tough, not knowing.

Well, there is one sure way to find out,
but I don't think I'm ready to try it yet.

( Rumbling )

DEIANEIRA: What's that?

I'm not sure.

Come on.

It's made out of bones.

DEIANEIRA: Those are human bones!

Trophies.

( Rustling )

( Growling )

Hercules, do something.

Me? I thought maybe you'd
want to try talking to him.

( Low-Pitched, Raspy Voice )
You have a nice skull.

Oh, no. This is one of those things
that responds better to fists.

( Grunting )

( Chortling )

- Are you all right?
- Yeah. If we ever see Phaedra again.

Remind me to kill her.

- ( Panting )
- Are you all right?

( Rumbling )

Nobody beats Antaeus, the giant.

Antaeus? ( Gasps )

( Roaring )

Why can't I ever run into
any nice giants?

Aaaah!

( Rumbling )

What the hell?

( Antaeus Growling )

( Screaming )

Oh, Antaeus the giant! What does
his legend say? What is it?

Oh! He gets his strength from
his mother. Who's his mother?

Who's his mother? Ohh!

Aaah!

Hercules, I have something
to tell you.

Deianeira, I'm a little
busy right now.

( Deianeira Moaning )

That is Antaeus, the giant!

- I think we can skip the formal introductions.
- No!

( Punch Landing )

- He gets his strength from his mother!
- ( Chortling )

Am I supposed to be
interested in his family tree?

The earth is his mother. It's where
he gets his strength.

It replenishes him. Don't
Let him touch the ground.

( Laughing )

( Antaeus Roaring )

( Roaring Continues )

( Roaring )

You did it. You did it.

( Thunderclap )

Come on. Let's go find
some shelter.

HERCULES: If I ever get my
hands on that little imp--

DEIANEIRA: She was such a sweet
little thing. Do you really think she knew...

- That Antaeus would be waiting for us?
- No.

I find it hard to believe someone could know
about the shortcut and somehow miss him.

- Let me see that.
- Huh?

- Aah.
- Does that hurt?

- No, your hands are cold.
- Some hero.

I barely beat him.

Antaeus might have killed me
if it hadn't been for you.

Well, we would have found out
if you were immortal or not.

That was a joke.

Thanks.

Here. You'll be warmer this way.

Are you the one?

The one that wounded Cheiron?

Yeah.

We were side-by-side in battle.

It was dark.
There was smoke everywhere.

I mistook him for the enemy.

I think I owe you an apology.
You've been trying to help me.

You've been trying to help everyone,
and I've been pretty awful.

- It's all right.
- But the things I've said--

Some of them were true.

Beside, I should apologize too,

for snapping at you earlier
when you asked about my father.

The reason I didn't tell you...

about my relationship with
him was just that:

there isn't one to talk about.

He's got the heavens and
earth on his shoulders,

But he never had time
to think or care about me.

Well, what do you say
we start over?

Friends?

Sure. What else would we be?

Well, we better try
to get some sleep.

Yeah.

- Good night.
- Yeah.

( Thunderclap )

What is it?

I thought I heard something.

- Never mind.
- ( Twig Cracking )

Should I be getting worried?

You little--

Gotcha! Hold still, you demon!

You sent us into those
woods on purpose.

Of course I did. It was a
shortcut. I told you that.

- A giant nearly killed us.
- A giant?

I didn't know about a giant.
I swear!

Oh, like hell you didn't.

Please don't let him hurt me.

Hercules! Don't you dare hurt her.

I wasn't going to hurt her. I was trying
to scare her for that stunt she pulled.

- I didn't know about him.
- ( Sighs )

You've gotta believe me.
I was following you.

I admit that, but I didn't
know about the giant.

Until he jumped out and attacked.
Boy, he was really creaming you.

Especially when he elbowed you
in the face. Yeow!

And then-- Ooh! He punched your stomach!
Oww! He bonked you on the head!

But finally, just when it looked
like you were licked,

You grabbed him and
lifted him into the air!

All right. I was there. Stop,
before you strain something.

Listen, we don't have time for this.
We've got to get going.

- To the mountains, right?
- Yes. To the mountains.

Then you need to know something.
Up ahead, the path reaches a fork.

If you're smart,
you'll go to the right.

Yeah? And what is it this time?
A lake serpent? Some sort of gorgon?

No. It's just a faster way
to Mt. Ethion.

I swear. For real this time.

Yeah. Well, we'll see.

But first, we're taking you yo town,
and you're gonna go to school all day.

You'll have to wear really tight shoes
and comb that rat nest you call hair.

No, No! You can't make me!

Phaedra! Come out of here!
I'm not done with you.

Hey!

( Clears Throat )

Well, what do you think?

Phaedra said to go to the right.

But than again, Phaedra also said to
take a shortcut through the woods.

Well, I don't think she knew anything
about Antaeus, okay?

Yeah. I mean you're probably right.

( Chuckles ) Why would she want
to tell us the wrong way?

( Clear Throat )

( Snickers )

Maybe we should have taken the
other path like Phaedra said.

No, this is the right way.
I'm sure of it.

I guess. We haven't run into a giant that wants
to rip your head off. That's a good sign.

( Gasps )

( Moaning )

You've got to be kidding me.

DEIANEIRA: She tricked us again!
That little rat!

HERCULES: That greep's doing this on
purpose: she's working for Hera.

It's gonna take all day to get
back to that other path.

No. I think we can still cross.

Oh, no. No, I can't.

Why not? You climbed the rock
up to Prometheus's house.

That was up! This is down.

Deianeira, we have to.

Hera will throw obstacles in our way
wherever we go, whatever path we take.

She'll never stop, which
means we can't either.

Yeah. We can't either.

( Deianeira Moaning )

( Moaning )

Deianeira. ( Grunting )

Do me a favor.
Don't look down anymore.

- ( Metal Scraping )
- I'm not looking down. I'm not looking down.

- See?
- ( Metal Clinks )

We're halfway there already.

Nothin'... to worry about.

- ( Metal Scraping )
- ( Deianeira Screaming )

Aaah!

Deianeira,

- You need to open your eyes and start crawling up.
- Mmm.

We're only a few feet from
the the rest of the walkway.

( Panting ) We almost died.

I know. It's all right now.

( Exhales ) No, it's just that...

almost dying has never
happened to me before.

Well, I try to do it
at least once a day.

Come on. Let's go.

( Goats Bleating )

Look, they have fire.

That must mean we're getting
closer to the torch.

Closer than you think. Look.

It's Mt. Ethion.
Can we get there tonight?

No, it's too dark.
We'll stay here tonight.

As long as there's a fire,
we've still got some time.

Why don't you go get
yourself warmed up?

Welcome.

- How are you doing tonight, sir?
- Fine.

- Any rooms available?
- Sure. Can't offer you much of a fire, though.

Damn thing seems to be dyin' away.
Just one room for you and the missus?

Sir?

Uh, yeah. Yeah. Uh, one room.

And make it your best.

Ah, I know just what you
have in mind.

( Chuckles ) Down the hall, left.
Hope you enjoy your stay.

I'd like a room for myself, as well.

It was just a kiss on the cheek.

( Chuckles Awkwardly )

I guess this is it.

Uh, are you...

sure you don't want to, uh--

- I mean, it... could get pretty cold.
- Good night, Hercules.

Yeah. Good night.

Excuse me!

I have just rented rooms for
myself and my daughters here.

However, upon inspection,
we find they simply won't do.

- They're cold.
- Too cold!

Y- yes. Too cold. Unbearably
frigid, if you ask me.

I mean, just what kind of a shoddy
operation are you running here?

Well, normally we have a fire in every room,
but almost all our fires are out.

- Daddy, what about that one?
- Yeah, what about that one?

- I'd like that fire moved to my room.
- GIRL: Our room.

But it's the only one left.

I'd like it moved just the same!

Sir, I'm afraid that's impossible.

- I have an inn full--
- Impossible? Do you know who you are talking to?

I am Thespius,

one of the most Prominent
Citizens in all of Athens.

Certainly you don't expect me
and my lovely daughters...

to be uncomfortable just bacause
you have a little heating problem.

Sir, it's more than a little problem.

Let me tell you something,

my fur-covered friend.

- I have stayed in some of the finest--
- Get away!

- ( Thespius Shouting )
- Look, we're not giving you any money, so go on.

( Shouting Continues )

You're all dirty. Shoo!

So I guess you wouldn't care if I told
you Hercules was staying here.

( Together ) Wait! Did you say "Hercules"?

He's the strongest man in the world!

Oh, he's the handsomest man in the world.

He's the son of a god.

Oh, so you've heard of him.

( Both laughs )

Deianeira?

I can't believe you're here.

I wouldn't be anywhere else.

Who's there?

Hercules.

( Sighs )

DEIANEIRA: Mmm.

- Oh, wait for me!
- GIRL: Ohh!

- ( Laughing )
- Deianeira!

No, wait!

( Girls Laughing )

Please, Deianeira!
You don't understand!

It was some sort of a spell!
I was tricked!

No, I was tricked! I was starting to
think that you were something special!

But... Deianeira! I am!

Please, Deianeira!
You've got to believe me.

I don't have to do anything!
Why don't you go back to that bed?

I never want to see you again!

( Chickens Cackling )

Deianeira. Deianeira.

I'm comin' with you.

( Snickers )

( Rattling Sound )

- ( Man Gasps ) It's gone!
- What happened to the fire?

MAN: Oh, no!

( Sighs )

THESPIUS: This time we won't stop until
we find some proper lodgings!

GIRL: Hercules himself.
I can't believe it!

I nearly melted away, especially when
he said I was so beautiful.

- He didn't even know your name.
- He did so!

So why'd he call you Deianeira?

Why did he call me Deianeira?

He called me Deianeira too.

It's almost as if he thought
we were someone else.

( Laughing )

( Gasps )

Well, Hera's keeping you
nice and warm, isn't she?

Hera? I don't know
what you're talking about.

Don't play dumb with me.

I swear, I don't know
what you mean.

You're working for Hera!

She is actually... ( Chuckles ) working for me.

Phaedra, come here.

Thank you. Excuse us?

- ( Chuckles )
- I don't believe this.

Father, what the hell is going on?

Son, have some faith in your father,
please. Try to understand.

Understand? Understand what?

- Well, I--
- I never expected you...

to be there to help me, but now you're
actually working against me.

( Laughing ) No, No.
I am trying to help you.

Help me?

Antaeus nearly broke my neck!

That bridge almost killed
the both of us.

Ah, but it didn't!
It just slowed you down.

What about Deianeira?

- You ruined everything I had with her.
- Yes.

I'm...

really...

sorry about that.

- I was just trying to protect you.
- Protect me from what?

The insane mission you're on!

Son... you want to commit suicide?

Father, what has Hera done
with the torch?

She's surrounded it
in a Circle of Fire,

fire that kills immortality.

Well, I never wanted
to live forever.

Why didn't you come with me
the day I asked you to?

You're here now.

Why not stay here now? Please?

You can't be serious.
You want me to sit here...

and let the world freeze?

What is it? Deianeira?

We can get her here.
She can stay with us.

- Come on.
- You just don't get it, do you?

You go through that circle,
and you'll die.

( Rock Rumbling )

Open the door.

This time, I'm defying you.

Then I'll do it myself.

( Grunts )

The more you love them,
the more they hurt you.

Deianeira.

Hercules? I didn't trust you.

I'm sorry. You were telling the truth.

Don't try to talk.

Here.

This will keep you warm.

We're getting closer.

We have to find the Circle of Fire.

Stop. Go back.

- Get out of my way.
- Don't you move!

I told you to go back!

I'm going in there.

You may be the strongest man
in the world.

But remember, I am still...

the King of the Gods.

( Loud Zapping )

( Grunts )

( Panting )

- Hercules.
- Stay back.

( Wind Gusting )

( Gasps )

- Get back to the cave!
- ( Explosion )

Don't do this.

( Rumbling )

( Pounding )

You are pushing me, boy.

( Sizzling )

( Breathing Heavily )

ZEUS: The next one will not be
aimed at your feet.

You could really kill me, couldn't you?

I am trying to save you.
Why can't you understand?

The lives of all those people.

I care about people.

It so happens...

I care more about you.

Father.

I love you too.

But I... still have to do this.

( Fire Crackling )

Prometheus's torch.

Aaah!

( Grunting )

Aaaah!

( Grunts )

( Moaning )

( Ice Cracking )

- ( Fire Roars )
- ( People Exclaining )

Sister, look!

( Grunts ) Look!

Come, boys.

( Exhales ) Hercules.

He's dying.

Hera, Hera! Stop this savagery!

You hurt my son and I'll
haunt you into eternity.

You wanna hurt my son,

then you'll have to take me too.

( Thunderclap )

Son. Son, are you all right?

Father.

Oh, son.

I thought you were dead.

So did I.

Mmm. Can you get up?

I-- I think so.

Let me help you.

Hold on. Hold on.

All right, son.
Let's get out of here.

Easy.

Here. Wait.

Sit down.

- You saved my life.
- That's what fathers are for.

But what if Hera hadn't
backed down?

We'd be in a lot of trouble.

( Both Chuckling )

- ZEUS: Why don't you two go home?
- HERCULES: No.

Wait.

Hercules, do you know
the power of those flames?

Yes, I do.

you're feeling better now,
aren't you?

You sure are my little sweetie.

HERCULES: What, is no one!
Guarding this post?

LITTLE BOY 1: Hercules?

Okay, what's this?

Step into the circle.

- Look, Hercules--
- Do it.

- ( Sighs ) You know how I feel--
- This is the last time.

I promise.

( Cheiron Moaning )

It's gone.

My wound! My wound is gone.

( Gasps )

( Chuckles ) I'm mortal.

( Laughing )

- You did it.
- No, we did it.

Who is the mighty Hercules
going to help next?

I don't know. Do you
have someone in mind?

( Chuckles )

( Giggling )

( All Laughing )
