where are you going?

Come down out of that,

come here.

I'm coming, Cu.

There's nothing up

there that's any use to you.

You'd be better off calming down

and not getting

too worked up, Ben.

Cu! You're standing on

the door. Get off it!

Let me help you.

Good boy!

Where's Saoirse?

Oh, no. Saoirse.

Wake up!

She did this to you?

You

see how peaceful she is, Ben?

You see how I have

taken all her cares away?

She is just as

a child should be,

without troubles, without worry.

There's got to be a way out.

Macha, please, please?

You don't understand.

If she doesn't sing

her song, she'll die.

So will you, and your son,

and all your kind.

Open the door! At once.

At once, I tell you!

Do excuse my little outburst.

If I can free your feelings,

then maybe...

Sorry, Cu.

Silly human child.

The jars are enchanted, they

cannot be broken by brute force.

The shell. It caused

the jars to break before.

There is no way out.

Open the door, human child.

Come here, Cu. Keep the old

witch quiet, will you?

Good boy.

Saoirse, I think

you need to do it.

Let me in!

Saoirse?

It's going to be okay.

Let me in!

It's okay, Saoirse.

We don't have much time.

I shouldn't have

been so mean to you.

It's not your fault,

it never was.

I should've been

a better brother to you.

I'm sorry.

Let me in this minute!

That's it, Saoirse!

Let me in!

You're doing it.

That's it.

Come on, Saoirse!

Leave those jars alone.

That's it, Saoirse!

Stop it!

Stop it!

It's working, Saoirse.

Stop it. Stop it!

Stop it!

Stop it!

Stop!

You did it!

You did it, Saoirse!

Saoirse!

Oh, no.

Oh, no, please stay awake,

Saoirse, please.

I have been so lost for so long.

Macha?

Please, forgive me.

I couldn't bear to see my

son suffering so much.

I couldn't bear it.

Please, Macha, my sister is sick.

Please, help us.

You poor thing.

What have I done?

I've wasted the precious

time you had left.

You must reunite her with her

coat before it's too late.

But we're still so far from home.

Do you have a car?

A car!

I have something better.

She's so gray.

Aye, you must be swift.

Climb on Cu's back

with your sister.

You are a brave and loyal dog.

May the wind travel with you,

may your journey be swift,

for you carry the hope of all the

Shee with you this dawn. Go now!

Go, Cu, run!

Whoa-how.!

Go, Cu!

Oh, they're gone.

Whom!

Whoa!

No, stay awake, Saoirse.

Cu, go as quick as you can.

There's home.

It's going to be all right.

We're going to find your

coat and you'll be better.

Cu will stay with you.

Dad, where's Saoirse's coat?

Ben? What?

What are you doing here?

What did you do

with Saoirse's coat?

Saoirse's what?
