The Hunted Page #5

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.

I send my best men

to be slaughtered by a ghost...

...that only I could kill.

Junko.

She was also.

I should have never listened

to that woman.

Send out all our spies.

I want to know everything that happened.

I want to know where he is.

Not heaven nor hell

can stop me from killing a man.

Now leave me.

This ghost that will not die.

Who is hunting whom?

I wonder.

Hi.

Excuse me?

Okay.

The other one?

You know, I'm not exactly

in good shape right now, but...

...I guess...

Thanks.

Yeah. That's much better.

Thank you.

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

Thanks a lot. That's much better.

Thank you.

What does he think I am, a donkey?

I'm gonna head back to the castle.

It was a lovely afternoon.

Excuse me.

That's nice.

Water.

Thank you. That's nice.

Are you crazy?

God, sake. My God!

God.

My God. It's the worst sake.

Thank you.

Well, it's not that bad after all.

He tricked me.

He tricked me

with this cheap homemade sake.

I wish I could speak Japanese...

...so this guy would understand

the meaning of the words:

"I'm not a donkey."

Come on. Okay?

I've been cleaning this five times already.

Stop the dust!

Okay? I'm doing you a favor.

Don't take advantage of me.

Then do it yourself.

I have seen one before.

Are you sure?

This doesn't feel right.

It should be... it's a sword.

Take it easy.

Where's he going?

Apple.

That was great.

Thanks.

It's even better.

Listen.

Can you teach me?

This better be your sister.

Put it down.

I don't like you having pictures

of other girls around.

What's so special about this one?

Put it down.

There, it's down.

You little whore!

You better learn to respect me!

Who are you? What...

Kinjo!

What are you doing here?

How did you get in?

Leave silently.

Don't come back.

Why did you kill Kirina?

I didn't.

You killed her.

Why did you have her killed?

She defied me.

How?

She asked to leave me.

- Why?

- I don't know.

Why?

I bought her in Soapland.

Her mother died at birth.

Her pimp uncle sold her

to people worse than me.

I gave her fine clothes, jewels.

Everything! Expensive things!

Why did you kill her?

She begged me for freedom for years.

Then demanded it, freedom from me,

Boss Nemura!

I told her...

...if she left me, I would kill her.

And?

She left me.

How much blood must I bathe in

to get clean?

It's been three weeks.

Oshima said my sword

would be ready today.

This is the finest sword I've ever made.

A sword is a living being.

It'll cut through anything.

You helped me bring it to life.

What's going on?

We are testing your sword.

You allowed him to touch my sword?

Racine.

Outside.

Don't be so superstitious.

He meant no offense.
