The Hunted Page #3

Synopsis: Paul is on a business trips to Nagoya, as a computer-chip executive from New York, when he meets a beautiful and mysterious woman. Later, he finds himself in the wrong place at the wrong time, inadvertently interrupting an assassination by a feared Ninja-cult. As he is now the only man to have seen the face of the cult's warrior-leader and lived, he soon realizes that he is facing a markedly foreshortened life-expectancy. Teaming up with a friendly samurai couple, on a two-centuries-old blood-feud with the Ninja, he struggles to survive. Finally, recuperating on an island-fortress, he learns swordsmanship, and perhaps, a little about courage, honor, love, and loyalty. The requisite final confrontation is rife with bloody swordplay and spectacular martial-arts action sequences.

...any more than you have cowboys

and Indians fighting in Manhattan.

In any case...

...no swordsman can get past a trained

police officer carrying a modern gun.

Hide.

They're here.

Watch out.

Maybe, I was...

...wrong.

Maybe?

Damn! They failed!

I need a phone. A phone.

- Hello?

- Mr. Racine?

- Yes.

- Are you all right?

We heard that ninjas attacked the hospital.

- Are you safe?

- I don't know.

You think they are following you?

I don't know.

But I can't wait for you here.

I may need to run.

Can you get to the railway station?

Maybe.

How do you say,

"Get me a taxi," in Japanese?

Okay.

It works.

I'll meet you at the station.

Stand in the open. I'll find you.

Are you sure you can do it?

We'll see.

Stop! Stop playing!

Don't you know this is just a form

of gambling?

Know what gambling does to you?

It steals your soul. Don't touch me!

Gambling causes impotence!

It leads to mental destruction!

It has to stop!

Sh*t.

Let's go! Go! Come on!

Take me to the train station.

Train station.

Train.

Don't ask me.

You're probably going to take me

to the toy store.

Why do I always get the weirdos.

Listen.

Keep the change, and take her home.

Home.

No.

I think you've done enough for tonight.

'Bye, angel.

Thank you. Thanks a lot.

Go home now.

- Takeda is impressed, Mr. Racine.

- Really?

No one's escaped the Makato before.

Now you've done it twice.

Well, tell him it's not a skill

I wanna keep practicing.

When do we leave?

There is a 5:
00 a.m. Bullet train

for Mihara.

We can take a boat from there

to the island.

Somebody followed you?

I don't think so.

He's losing blood.

I'll re-bandage him in the restroom.

He needs dry clothes.

Easy. It is only water.

Did you have a vision?

I don't know.

A hallucination, maybe.

It is poison from the shurikens.

The ninja use it because it is quick.

In small doses, it helps you

to see into the world of the spirits.

Maybe I'll use some next time

I go to a Grateful Dead concert.

Thank you.

- What?

- They are here.

- How does he know?

- It's best to keep moving.

We must trust in Takeda. He knows.

I gotta rest.

We can't fight here.

Keep moving.

I brought you tea.

You're new, aren't you?

You're not allowed...

They'll start at the front

of the train and work their way back.

I'll hold them off here.

Get the passengers out.

Listen, everyone,

we have an emergency situation.

Please go to the rear of the train.

Hurry!

I've set it on automatic.

It won't stop until it reaches Mihara.

In the meantime, kill every passenger.

- Everyone?

- Everyone!

Last night he used the crowd

to cover his escape.

He won't trick me again.

Kill everyone.

We'll fill the train with blood
