Wolf's Rain (2003) s01e15 Episode Script
Grey Wolf
I can't remember anymore how long it's been since I found my way here.
Or even why I came here.
This place is a filthy city.
The cold air that blows in through cracks in the domes makes its way into every damn nook and cranny in the city.
Rats that scavenge through the trash.
Greedy crows.
Humans with exhausted faces.
Residents perfectly suited to life in this city.
Leggo! Let me go, damn it! And me? I was I was starving.
Do it.
Hurry it up! Dumbass! Tsume! It comes with a certain risk to life and limb, but if you have the strength, you can always get food.
Survival of the fittest.
It's a rule that applies wherever you go.
This city isn't so bad.
I found a place where I belonged.
And that was when he showed up.
What is it? It's a dog.
Looks like it's dying.
Maybe it's worth something.
Maybe we can eat it.
I've never seen a dog this big before.
That's not a dog.
Pull it out.
Interesting.
That was quite a stunt you pulled.
I was protecting myself, that's all.
Don't be so quick to kill.
What's wrong with killing? I don't know what mountain you came down from, but there are rules here in the city.
Rules? Is running with a pack like that in a rotten city another one of your rules? I'm using them, that's all.
Your rules are as rotten as this city.
What's the point of living if it means throwing away your pride? Don't talk so big, you half-dead bastard! Are you okay, Tsume? You're bleeding-- Don't touch me! Never butt into my business.
About earlier Thanks.
You saved my life.
I thought that maybe you didn't care when one of your friends died.
I thought that maybe I could never be one of your friends We're not friends.
I'm not like you people.
Hey, Tsume! What's the rush? C'mon, nobody's following us.
I know.
Shouldn't we call it a day? I mean, we got plenty.
The Nobles' provisions ought to be passing through the checkpoint tomorrow.
We're gonna hit 'em again? Chen and Sedo, you're the advance squad.
Why am I not surprised? We messed up there last week, so security's gonna be tight.
We lost two people today as it is.
Gehl, you'll be on standby.
Anyone who doesn't have the will to fight should just curl up and sleep.
In the end, it's a human city.
It's too cramped for a wolf to live in.
I knew that from the very beginning.
I could run and run all I wanted, but this smoldering sensation in my gut would never disappear.
I'm gonna fight, too.
Right alongside you guys.
There's gotta be something I can do.
Tsume! They say the Nobles have put a bounty on bands of thieves.
Have they? They've rounded up a bunch of people already.
Our raids lately have been a little too high-profile.
Maybe we oughta leave the city.
We can sneak aboard the late-night freight train, and then-- Our next raid will be tonight.
Make the usual preparations.
And you're just gonna sit back and watch? You let Gehl die.
I ain't working with you anymore.
I don't wanna slow you down, now do I? Suit yourself.
Hey, have you heard? They say that wolves have appeared in town.
Oh, my What's the world coming to? You don't suppose it's just a big dog, do you? It was really, really big, apparently.
They all say that they've never seen a dog like that before.
No matter where we go, nothing ever changes.
We may disguise our true shape, but we're still wolves.
I should never have gotten mixed up with a clumsy little pup like him.
A kid? No, that's no kid.
Jump! Hurry up! I was getting ready to! You're Tsume, right? This is the first time I've ever met another wolf like me.
I heard rumors about you from the crows.
They said you make friends with humans and run wild with them.
I don't have any friends.
I'm Toboe.
Thanks for helping me back there.
I've also lived with humans my whole-- Just get lost, okay? I get pissed off when I'm around idiots like you.
What are you gonna do now? Do you have a place to go? Who knows? I wonder if I'm ever gonna see Leara again Maybe it'd be okay if I saw her for just a bit? You saw that look on her face, didn't you? Well She was a little surprised.
You call that a little? She was pissing her pants.
Don't lie about her! She reeked of it.
Why do you have to lie all the time? Why can't you be honest with yourself? See if I care.
If you want to go, just go.
Go see for yourself.
Why did you save me, then? I'm not your friend or anything, so you should have just left me.
If you'd pretended you didn't recognize me, then-- You're right.
You're not my friend.
You're only friends with humans.
Isn't that right? It's easier that way, 'cause no human is as strong as you, and they all do what you tell them to.
You don't know anything! You don't know what it takes to survive in this city, or how dangerous it is.
Nothing! Go.
Let's see you make it on your own.
Beat it! Being alone doesn't bother you, Tsume? Sorry, my mistake.
It was a mistake to get mixed up with you in the first place.
I'm sick of friends.
Tsume! You sold me out? In the end, we all got caught.
We couldn't let just you get away scot-free.
You damn humans Not bad.
Crap What's the deal? Why did you bring us here? Tsume! I smelled your blood.
What?! I smelled it all the way here from the city.
And you came to nurse me back to health or something? I didn't ask for your help.
Tsume, I Um Come with us.
Leave the city with us.
And where's this merry band of yours going? To Paradise.
You've got to be kidding me.
You're going with them because you believe that stuff? I don't know, but But if we stay here, we'll spend our whole lives sneaking around and hiding.
We can't live with the humans.
Look, do whatever you want, but a nasty scent is heading this way.
We're surrounded.
Why did you guys come to this city? Wasn't it because you caught the scent of the flower? There's no reason to stay here now.
It's got nothing to do with the scent of any flower.
I fit in here.
Yeah, I see that.
This city is a dump.
I still have a score to settle with you.
We don't have time for that! I seem to recall you saying that your pride wouldn't let you pass as a human.
So, where's your pride gone? Nowhere.
Nothing's changed.
Do you understand what leaving the city would mean? Yeah.
You'll just die.
There's nothing unnatural about dying or being killed.
It's better than living with no purpose.
Thanks.
Hurry up and go! You're really not coming? Tsume! What're you doing? Hurry up! Tsume! This way! C'mon, hurry! I'm getting ready to! Jump.
Hey, wait a minute! What the heck are you doing?! C'mon, Tsume! Scared? Get real.
Screw journeys.
Paradise can kiss my ass.
It's just that I'm fed up with this town.
That's all.
I saw them once when I was little.
I was still a cub.
Where I was born, they blossomed all over.
White flowers that only bloomed under a full moon They were Lunar Flowers.
They were all burned.
A fire that broke out in our territory burned all the flowers in an instant.
Along with my friends, whose escape was cut off.
I was the only one who survived.
Why just me? Why me? I don't have a pack anymore.
The only place I have to go is Paradise.
Grey Wolf Next Time Next Time There's all kinds of things in the world.
There's all kinds of things in the world.
There's lots of stuff that you can't do anything about, But waiting patiently for something is part of what makes a journey fun, don't you think? I wonder what that girl is up to these days? Dream Journey I wonder what that girl is up to these days? Dream Journey
