- My name's Sky.

(Sky grunting)

We met in the forest.

- We don't want the Ants and the Barbs getting ideas, Flame.

If they ganged up--

- [Ant] We're getting attacked!

(Cass screaming)

- You need to warn the village,

the machines are on patrol.

(dramatic tribal music)

- Authorities are appealing for calm

throughout the evacuation process.

(dramatic tribal music)

♪ The spirit of the child is more than mine ♪

(water splashing) (somber guitar music)

(door pounding)

- Come! (door squeaking)

Harmony, how do I look? - Perfect.

- This isn't a rash, is it?

- It's just the light.

- It's hard work, having to be perfect,

everyone looking up to me.

(Harmony grimacing)

What, you mean some don't?

- (sighing) It's just, some of the Privs are a bit upset.

- About?

- They didn't like you discarding Lol last night.

- He attacked me!

You all saw!

- You gave him the thumbs down, he was surprised.

- It was just a joke.

- Pity Lol didn't know that.

- It's hard being a leader, tryin' to please everyone!

- You could smooth it over, if you wanted to.

(somber music)

- [Omar] Half the crop's gone!

The rest ruined!

- The chickens, the pigs!

All gone.

- This one of theirs?

- Yeah, a Barbs' arrow!

Savages!

- They use the arrows for hunting.

But I don't understand it,

the Barbs have never attacked us before?

- They have now. (Sal crying)

- What's wrong?

- It's her little pig, Star, the Barbs took it.

Sal, it's okay, it's gonna be all right

I'm sure Star will be fine.

- Really?

- You say the Barbs have never done this before?

- Never?

- We've never exactly been friends,

but we've never fought, either.

- Until now!

- But why now?

- I know why, a certain person wandering

into their territory!

- Are you saying it's my fault the Barbs attacked us?

- Can you think of another good reason?

- They didn't see me!

- The Barbs live in the forest,

they know how to hide and not be seen!

- I wasn't seen! - I say you were!

That's why they attacked us, to teach us a lesson!

It's all your fault, Dan!

- No, it isn't!

- Stop it, both of you!

Fighting among ourselves won't help anything.

- We have to decide what we're going to do.

- What's to decide?

We can't just sit here and do nothing!

- They'll probably be expecting an attack.

- Who asked you?

- Omar!

- Don't forget, they are hunters, they know how to fight.

We just farmers!

- So you say we do nothing?

Well, I'm not scared, even if everybody else is!

- Omar, we know how brave you are.

We depend on you, but this is different.

And before we decide on anything,

we need to ask the Ancestor for help.

Let us prepare.

(somber music)

(water splashing) (bird calling)

(flute music)

- Go on and eat you some.

It was a joke, for a Discard you are quite useful.

(door squeaking)

Ah, Harmony, you've got news?

- Shadow has.

- Let him in.

Shadow?

Great Zoot, what do ya look like?

- It's a disguise to make the Ants think

the Barbs attacked them.

- My idea.

- Clever.

I'd take you for a Barb, you look disgusting enough.

What about the raid?

A success?

- Yeah, completely, we stole their animals, crops

and we smashed their fences.

- And they thought you were Barbs?

- Well, we were all dressed like them.

and we left some of the arrows around.

- Great, nice one.

(somber guitar music) (birds singing)

- What's this all about?

- Well done.

- Yes, you did well, Shadow.

- We taught them a lesson.

- My plan was brilliant.

The Ants and the Barbs will be

too busy fighting each other to worry us.

- What would we do with out you, Harmony?

Right, Shadow?

- It was a good plan, but plans are only as good

as the people who carry them out.

- The raid would have been useless

without the Barb disguise.

- True, but your plan would have been useless

without my Warps.

- Hey, hey, don't fight.

I couldn't do without either of you.

(ominous music)

(door squeaking)

- It was the old time, a time of plenty, a time of peace.

All of the land there was joy and happiness,

it was the time of paradise.

But deep in the darkness,

a seed was born and grew, a bad seed.

And that seed was called?

- [Tribe] Zoot! (Zoot shouting)

(drums pounding)

- And with Zoot, according to the stories handed down

over the years, came to acknowledge it.

(sinister music) And then, the machines.

When technology ruled

fear and hunger walked the land.

(Zoot growling) With Zoot came the end.

(Zoot growling) (drums pounding)

The end of happiness,

the end of joy.

The end of paradise.

Some say it was written that the machines ruled

and Zoot worshiped that technology.

- Power and chaos! (dramatic music)

- How did you get on?

- No signs of the stranger but something's going on.

- Jag found footprints, dozens of them.

- And I think they belong to the Warps.

- Only question is, what were they doing here?

- But out of the terrible darkness, a light shone.

And that light was called?

- [Tribe] Bray.

- For Zoot had a brother.

A brother as light as he was dark.

A brother as good as Zoot was evil.

(Zoot yelling)

And a mighty battle began.

(Zoot yelling) (drums pounding)

A battle between the terrible darkness

and the light of paradise.

- And Bray won, didn't he?

(uplifting music)

- The light shone onto the darkness

and the darkness was gone.

And the light of paradise shone on everyone.

And this time was called the time of the Mall Rats.

- You've heard of the Mall Rats?

- Sure, who hasn't?

- But one day, Zoot returned.

Bringing with him the sick and evil.

(Zoot yelling) (ominous music)

Some say that this was even

the birth of the monster machines.

And the terrible darkness fell again.

Then began the time of the Great Wandering

and fear walked the land once more.

(Zoot yelling) (monster growling)

Make the monster machines stay in the Forbidden Zone

and keep them away from our village!

Mighty Bray, save us!

- [Tribe] Mighty Bray, save us!

- Ancestor return! - Ancestor return!

- [Tribe] (chanting) Ancestor return, Ancestor return!

Ancestor return!

Ancestor return!

Ancestor return!

Ancestor return!

(ominous music)

- That one!

That one!

This one!

(birds singing)

- [Faygar] Be careful with these,

they're our precious history.

- Thank you.

- Sky, thank you.

- Does Bray live there?

- Let me see?

Yeah, yeah, the mall, that's where Bray lives.

- [Sal] Will he take us there?

- One day, he will come and take us all to live there.

- When?

When will he come?

- Soon, very soon.

- Will he take Sky, too?

- Yes, he'll take everyone.

- Even the yucky Barbs?

I don't wanna go if they go.

- The Barbs won't want to go,

they're happy in their forest.

- Can I please see them?

- Be careful with them.

(uplifting music)

(hinges squeaking)

- [Warp] Inside!

(rats squeaking)

- Why are we here?

What's going to happen to us?

- Do you believe the story of Bray and the Mall Rats?

- I've heard it, lots of times.

- Do you think it's true?

- Well, I believe there was a tribe called the Mall Rats,

and that they were good people

who tried to make a better world.

- Is that all?

- That's all I know.

The rest is just stories.

I don't know what to believe, Dan?

These Barbs, Omar, tell me about them.

- They're savages!

They live like wild animals.

- No, they just live in the forest, that's all.

They like to hunt animals.

Zora's their leader.

They she's stronger than anyone in their tribe.

Fiercer than anyone anywhere.

She's brilliant at hunting and at fishing.

Zora and the Barbs go wherever they like,

they're not frightened of anyone or anything,

they just wander the forest.

Free as the animals or the birds.

Free as the air.

- You'd think differently if you lived with them.

That would teach you.

- I would rather live with the Barbs

then embrace Mall Rat paradise!

- Shut your mouth!

- It's true!

I bet there's all sorts of rules there,

don't do this, don't do that!

- Dan, shush, don't say such things!

- Why?

(Sal crying) - Sal!

- Now look what you've done!

- What do you think you're doing?

- Eating.

- I know that, stupid.

(Erin belching)

That's disgusting!

And so are you!

- What was that for?

- Making a pig of yourself.

Why aren't you helping doing the chores?

- I've collected all the firewood?

- For tonight, but what about tomorrow?

- I'll do it tomorrow.

- No, you won't, you'll do it now

or I'll tell Zora!

- She busy talking to Kwarli and Jag about something.

- You should be busy, too, go on, get on with it!

(wood crashing)

- Leanne, help!

- You okay?

- I am now.

- You're gonna get yourself in big trouble one day, Erin.

- At least I won't be starving!

(upbeat music)

- Star!

Star!

- Sal, come inside, I'll tell you a story.

Would you like that?

- No, I want to find Star!

- Sal, Star's gone.

- No,

she's

not!

(somber music) (rats squeaking)

- We'll be all right, I'm sure we will.

- Now thanks to Harmony, it was her idea

to relieve the Ants of this terrific food.

To Harmony!

- [Privs] To Harmony!

Shadow, fetch the Discards, let's start the contest.

(somber music)

- I thought you were leaving today?

- The day isn't over yet.

- Omar,

it's time.

(suspenseful music)

(gong clanging)

(somber music)

- They're so dirty.

- Look up!

Smile!

Look right!

Left!

- Whatever we decide at this meeting,

Bray will protect and guide us

but he leaves the choice to us.

We must decide what to do.

- I say we storm their camp, wreck it like they did to us.

- I'm uh...

- What do you suggest, Cass, we lie down

and let them walk all over us?

- We should try and talk to them.

- If anyone goes near their camp, they'll attack us!

- I know that this isn't any of my business--

- No, it isn't!

- Omar, Sky isn't one of us, but he has traveled a lot.

Maybe we can learn from him?

Sky?

- If you want to have a meeting,

you send a messenger first to arrange it.

- Who would be stupid enough

to walk into the Barb camp alone?

- I will.

- Don't be stupid, Dan.

- I'm not stupid.

And Omar, you think I caused all this, don't you?

- He was just angry.

- No, he said the Barbs attacked us

because I went into their land, so it's up to me to go.

- No!

- Dan, it's very brave of you to offer,

but we can't allow it.

- Why not, because I'm stupid?

Think I'll make things worse?

- You could say that!

- I'll talk with Bray again, he'll show me the way.

(somber music)

- 11.

Four.

Six.

12.

Six.

Three.

Five.

- Perfect!

- Sal?

Sal, no, you mustn't go into the forest!

- I want to find Star!

- You mustn't go in there, it's dangerous!

Come on, now, come back.

- [Sal] Star!

Star!

- [Cass] We'll have a look around the camp

and we'll try and find her.

- [Sal] Star!

- It's going to be okay, come on.

We'll look for her.

(somber music)

- Congratulations!

- Hey, Dan, where are ya going?

- My business.

- You're going to talk to the Barbs?

- Right.

- Isn't dangerous?

But I thought Faygar-- - Faygar can get lost!

(somber music)

(hinges squeaking)

- Make yourself comfortable,

someone will bring you food later.

- Excuse me?

- Yes?

- What, what have I been chosen for?

- You were the best.

- But, what's going to happen to me?

- Wait and see.

- What's happened to the other two?

- You ask a lot of questions, don't you?

- Sorry, I just wanted to know.

- No, you don't wanna know.

Believe me, you don't wanna know.

(hinges squeaking)

(ominous music)

(tribal music)

(suspenseful music)

- You're leaving, Sky?

- I said I would.

- You're welcome to stay if you wish.

- Thanks, Faygar, but I must carry on.

- But where will you go?

- Wherever the path takes me.

- When you find what you're looking for, Sky,

I hope it makes you happy.

- Thanks, same here.

See ya! (upbeat tribal music)

- Good riddance.

(upbeat tribal music)

(machine growling)

(upbeat tribal music)

(branches breaking)

- Who's there?

(upbeat tribal music)

(bird calling)

- What are you doing here?

- Walking.

- Are you following me? - No.

- I don't need your help, you know.

- I know that, Dan. (laughing)

You don't need anyone's help.

- Right.

- But I am going this way, would you like some company?

- You sure you're not following me?

- May Zoot strike me down.

- Come on.

(somber music)

- [Discard] (crying) What have I been chosen for?

- [Harmony] Wait and see.

- Shh! - What is it?

- I think we're near the Barbs camp.

(suspenseful music) (boys yelling)

(dramatic music)

- [Sal] Look!

- Sal?

- Look, Cass, look!

It's Star!

(somber music)

(upbeat music)
