S1 E15Unfinished Business

[to a defeated bounty hunter] Looks like there will be no money for you, crazy round man.

[Jack encounters an exact replica of himself in a black and red robe and red eyes]

JJack

What sorcery is this? Who are you?

Don't be such a fool! I'm you!

JJack

If you are me, then who am I?

Graaah! You're so stupid! You are you also.

JJack

Enough! You are my mirror image, yet your speech is foul with evil and disrespect. Who are you, and how have you come to be me?

I am the son of Aku's magic. He has looked deep within you and has spawned me from your own burning hatred. I am your dark side, and I possess all the powers that you wield. And I have only one purpose in my existence: to destroy you!

[Jack is meditating] What the heck is going on?

JJack

You have lost. The battle is over.

What?

JJack

You are my inner demon. You have been born from the hatred within me. But now that hatred is no more. Thus, you do not exist.

Fool! I am real! Now feel the reality of my cold, hard steel!

[Mad Jack yells and charges at Jack, who does nothing. The moment Mad Jack's sword makes contact, he is enveloped in a flash of light. Mad Jack screams and disappears]

Due to the nature of our geography, it's not often that we receive visitors. In fact, you're the first.

Ahem. Lord Aku, we have fulfilled our obligation to you. We... now ask that you...

Fulfill mine? Yes, yes, the obligation, of course. Yes, well, it seems that I've CHANGED MY MIND!

Jack. There's something I... the way we... betrayed you... It is unforgivable. I...

I understand. Aku's deceit runs deep. Even a good heart can be tainted in the hands of Aku.

No. I will not do battle with you for your amusement. There is no honor in it.

Honor? What do thee know of honor? A millennium hath passed, and now my goal is within my grasp. This battle will continue to the end.

Strike me down if you must, but I will not fight.

Nay! I cannot strike thee defenseless. This battle must be concluded by the warrior's code. I beg thee. Rise! Unsheathe your sword! Continue this fight!

Why?

For freedom. The master of this kingdom of rock is just a man. A cursed man trapped in a rock body. It happened long ago. So long ago now. Twas once a time where I too was a man. A mighty warrior like thee. [uses his powers to reveal a large tablet from the ground]

I have engraved a recording of my past, so that I would never forget the life that I had, the man I was. So, thy people would not be lost to the dust of time. Let me take thee on a journey into the past... This land was not always parched and burnt. Once a beautiful city thrived in the lush countryside. 'Twas truly a sight to behold. A jewel of all the northern lands. My happiness was a beautiful family of a wife, two sons, and a faithful canine. Times were good, game was plentiful, and my people prospered. 'Twas on return from a successful hunting trip when an omen appeared. A black moon blocked out the sun. It grew and grew until it ate the sky and land. The darkness now loomed over my kingdom. A horrible monster born from within the darkness attacked. My army retaliated. But our efforts were to no avail. 'Twere I alone who was left to destroy the monster. My weapons were worthless. My attempts to avenge amused the monster and he struck me down. I lay before him, ready to battle for the last time. But the villain did not destroy me. Nay, the fate dealt to me was much more cruel. He imprisoned me within an unbreakable crystal, denying me a warrior's end. Helpless was I as the beast destroyed what was left of my beloved kingdom. Then he came for me again. 'Twas his enjoyment that day to punish me for eternity. Thrust me, he did into the core of the mountain. 'Twas his plan for me to spend all of eternity in the mountain. Never to join my fallen comrades in Valhalla, the resting place of all great warriors. Through countless eons, I laid still, but my will was strong. I found a way to manipulate the material around me. Out of the rock, I formed the body thou seest before thee. Then I created a passage so full of peril and danger that only the greatest of warriors can pass. For, you see, the only entry into Valhalla is to fall in combat to another warrior. And thou are the only one to survive. As written, the truth has been told. My fate is at your mercy.

Rise, warrior! Rise! Honorably, I must be defeated! I cannot let up!

Do not worry, I have only begun to fight.

Yeeeeeeessssss. At last, after all these years, a worthy opponent.

Enough of this pointless battle. I will continue to fight you no more.

[strikes] I say thee NAY!!
