Inuyasha (2000–2004): Season 6, Episode 20 - The Fiery Bird Master, Princess Abi - full transcript

When the gateway in the Land of Fire opened, Kagome sensed the presence of the Sacred Jewel shard. Inuyasha and the gang go looking for a different way to get to the area between this world and the next.

Darkness and Light!

Into the chaos of the Feudal Era,

the Sacred Jewel brings a group of strangers together.

500 years across time, their destinies are controlled

by the few remaining shards of the Jewel.

Feudal Fairy Tale:

Inuyasha!

The shard sleeps here...

at the border between this life and the next.

The gate at the Realm of Fire has been opened.

But as we search for another route,

another formidable enemy appears.

You can now dream... furikazashi!

You can now dream... Brandish it!

I'm in a world... kakenuke yo!

I'm in a world... Run through it!

You can now dream... furikazashi!

You can now dream... Brandish it!

Go in and try... kurikaeshi nayami

Go in and try... repeated wondering

Hatenaki hibi e to kimi mo

You too, to Endless days

Do you need to cry? kodoku tomo

Do you need to cry? Loneliness too...

Show me the fight... namida sulu tabi ni

Show me the fight... every time you cry

Yuluginai yume to nale

I will become your dream

Go!

It opened!

Wha...?!

There! Beyond the gate!

Do you want to pass?

Or not?

Dammit!

Who'd want to pass, idiot?!

Then...

We shall close the gate.

Is that true, Kagome?

I'm sure of it.

When the gate opened,

I sensed the presence of the Sacred Jewel shard.

So it's there...

Somewhere over in that world... the Sacred Jewel shard.

Hmmm...

To think that the shard was really there...

Myoga...

W-What are you doing?!

Were you aware that we'd turn
to stone if we went that way?

Would I have followed you into
such a dangerous place if I knew?!

That's true.

But at least we verified that
there is a Sacred Jewel shard there.

So it wasn't a futile exercise.

Yes.

Also, Hakudoshi and Naraku are
living beings of this world.

So they won't be able to pass
through to the other side either.

We're in the same predicament.

Well, I guess we just have to find another way.

There has to be another path.

The path that the Sacred Jewel shard took.

Yes. We must get the shard,

before it's taken by
Naraku or Hakudoshi.

Oh, a village!

Let us stay the night in that village.

Something's weird.

There's no sign of people.

What's that?!

Huh?!

What?!

They're all dead.

Miroku, they've all had their blood sucked out.

Hey! There're more over there.

What could have happened here?!

If they had their blood sucked out...

Could it be a demon like Old Myoga?

No way!

Hey, Myoga!
Do you know anything...?

Huh? Gone already.

Hah! What a pathetic village!

No rice or sake!

What a waste of our time.

Men! We leave!

Yessir!

Huh?!

What's that?

Birds?

- They're no ordinary birds!
- Demons!

Men!

Don't fight. There's enough for all.

Now heed this...
Don't leave a drop of blood.

What's wrong?

The Bird Master, Princess Abi.

Who are you?

Create a path for me.

How dare you order me around like that?!

It's not an order. It's a trade.

Not again...

How terrible!

They've had their blood sucked out.

It's probably the work of a demon, right?

Yeah. While we were in the Realm of Fire,

some nasty demon wreaked havoc around here.

Let us hurry.

Another village may become a target.

Naraku... you said your name was?

If I lend you my help, what's in it for me?

Princess Abi, you use your birds to
collect human blood.

For what purpose?

The one inside that cave is your mother, am I right?

It seems that she is on the verge of death.

She ate a poisonous demon and became sick.

But she's not dying.

I'm giving her human blood to dilute the poison.

Princess...

All you need to do is to keep collecting the blood.

So that your mother recovers quickly.

But if you promise to help me,

I will help you gather blood even faster.

Without any interruption from anyone.

That is made from my bones.

I shall lend it to you.

Huh?!

Yo! Princess Abi!

Where is your mother?

Why should I tell you?

She ate our father!

She won't get away with it!

She sure ate him, but he wasn't very good.

What?!

It doesn't matter! You will do!

We'll avenge our father!

Die! Princess Abi!

I won't fall to the likes of you!

Brother!

As if you could defeat me!

Maybe not one-on-one.

But feel our combined power!

Why you...!

You shall die from our poison!

Don't mess with me!

Poison this weak...

You...!

Who are you?!

Princess Abi's ally?

If you do not know who Naraku is...

you shall find out!

Those insects will be useful, too.

I doubt that!

Humph! Annoying bastard.

Use him...

Mother!

That Naraku has a powerful aura,
but he's still just a half-demon.

Yes, I figured that out.

Just use him and when he makes a suspicious move,

feed him to the birds.

You're right. First, we must collect blood.

Don't mess around with me, you brat!

Are you in pain?

Naraku just grasped your heart... from somewhere.

Just remember this, Kagura.

Naraku and I are connected.

So think before you act next time.

Although...

I'd never be killed by the likes of you.

That Hakudoshi is annoying,

but the real problem is...
Naraku.

As long as he has a grasp on my heart,

I am not the wind.

I'll be chained and bound to him...

A neighboring village was attacked,
and we fear that we may be next.

You're probably right.

All the villages we passed had been attacked.

Huh?!

Just as we feared...

This is terrible!

What are we going to do?!

Inuyasha, don't scare everyone.

What? I'm just telling 'em the truth!

Fear not. We shall exterminate the demons for you.

Is that true?!

We don't need payment for this.

We just ask for lodgings, food and women.

What did you just say?!

Just joking.

Well then, how about just the women?

I said I'm joking!

Don't even say it.

Uh-huh!

Are you sure about these people?

But who else can we ask?

Thanks to Miroku, they've lost all confidence in us.

No kidding!

Pa!

What's this?!

Something's strange...

Do not go outside!

Yes!

What are they?!

Birds?!

These birds have the smell of blood all over them!

Are they demons that attacked the villages?

Yeah, I'm sure of it!

W-What's happening?!

They're attacking!

Wind Scar!

They're coming again!

T-They're on fire!

They're burning the houses
to force the villagers outside!

Grandpa!

Why you...!

Hiraikotsu!

They're coming again!

Let's finish this!

Wind Tunnel!

Wow! In one swoop!

Saimyosho!

No! Miroku, you'll be poisoned!

That's...!

Just who are you?
Why'd you interfere?!

I'd say the same about you!
Are you one of Naraku's minions?

Naraku?

The Saimyosho flying around you are proof!

I know nothing.

I don't know what's going on between you and Naraku,

but you killed my birds.

I'll kill every one of you and
drain every drop of your blood!

Now die!

It's not my style to slay women,
but I don't like your attitude!

Slay?!
That's a laugh!

You're just another half-demon like Naraku!

What?!

How dare you involve me
in your petty half-demon quarrels!

Watch out!

We'll be killed!

Get the villagers outta here!

'Kay! Run, everyone!

- Hurry!
- This way!

Don't let anyone escape!
Suck out their blood!

Take this!

Damn you!

Inuyasha!

Curse you!

Damn!

Take this!

Wind Scar!

Who is this half-demon?!

His aura is stronger than I thought.

A barrier!

She deflected his Wind Scar!

This trident... put up a barrier?

This is made with my bones.

I knew it! You are one of
Naraku's minions!

That was Naraku's power!

Naraku...

Did he give me this trident to
force me to fight that half-demon?

Hold it!

She ran away?

Dammit!

The... village...

We should be thankful we're alive at least.

But if you promise to help me,

I will help you gather blood even faster.

He sounds too suspicious.

She called herself Princess Abi.

She seems to be connected to Naraku,

but she really didn't seem like one of his minions.

We're talking about Naraku.

I'm quite sure he's just using her.

For what?

That female demon is using her
birds to suck the blood out of humans.

Why would Naraku be interested in helping her?

But it's certain that she's helping him.

Naraku is trying to find a way to get
to the border between this life and the next,

in order to get the Sacred Jewel shard.

And is collecting human blood
somehow connected to that?

Well, it's the only thing we have to go on.

Whatever the connection...

With your brain, Inuyasha, you wouldn't
be able to figure it out.

- What did you say, Shippo?!
- Owww!

- And you think your brain can?
- Oww!

Shippo, you said too much just now.

Hah! Heard her?

Inuyasha, now you're overdoing it.

S-I-!

In any case, we must stop this Princess Abi.

Yes, before more innocent lives are lost.

She reeks with the smell of blood.
It'll be easy to find her!

The path that leads to the border
between this world and the next.

It will soon open.

Moshi ima kanashimi afulelu nala

If there's an overflow of sadness now

Watashi ni motalete naite ii kala

You can lean on me and cry

I get, I get, I get... Get the feeling

I get, I get, I get... Get the feeling

I get, I get, I get... Get the dreaming

I get, I get, I get... Get the dreaming

Tada kono mama

Just stay this way

Come my way

Come my way

Kono yami no hotoli

Alone in this darkness

Come close to me

Come close to me

Ima akali tomoshi

Now with the shinning light

I'll be with you... I'll be with you

I'll be with you... I'll be with you

Tada soba ni ilukara

I'll just be by your side

So come my way

So come my way

Come my way

Come my way

Fifty years ago, my sister Kikyo sealed
Inuyasha to this sacred tree.

Inuyasha, you who stole my sister's Sacred Jewel...

How can you sleep so peacefully?

Will you stop your fighting

and become a human being?

Me? Become a human?

Next, an Inuyasha special:
"The Tragic Love Song of Destiny"

The answer lies in the Bone Eater's Well.
