06x06 - Alone in the Woods

[bunniefuu]

Stay close with fast.

Us.

Hope.

But we can.

Our mountain.

You get back from many.

And by the like, the best.

Storms cleared up for now, we should

be able to leave by morning.

That's good. No. I don't have a good

feeling about this place.

Especially with me around.

Are you okay? Sure. Tell everyone to get some sleep.

I'll wake you guys up just before sunrise.

It's a diary. The head of this household, Bartleby.

Apparently, he and several other families founded

this little settlement to try and live on their own.

It sounds like it worked, at least for a spell.

Grim. Just one of many hardships slowed

down. Their farming made everything harder.

It's a shame, really. He seemed like quite the ambitious fellow,

always thinking of new schemes to overcome the odds.

Hey, guys. Crowe said. We should get some sleep.

We're going to head out early tomorrow. Thank goodness.

The last thing you'll catch me doing is letting some kid tell

me what to do. Go to bed.

S.

Close window.

Uncle Crow. Come on, get up.

Leave me alone. Oh. We overslept.

Hmm.

What?

Oh, right. Sunrise.

You know, you can talk to me about stuff. Yang to.

Let's just get out of here.

There. Can we just go back to bed?

If we're all so tired, maybe we should make breakfast.

You want to make it? Not really.

You guys got the bike ready? Well,

it's done now, so let's hook this thing up and.

You people are just beacons for bad luck, aren't you?

I'm starting to think the universe just

doesn't want us getting to Atlas.

It's just a flat tire. I'm sure there's a spare.

It's not just that. It's everything. Storms. Crashes. Monsters. I'm so tired.

Me too. It feels like we're always

having to fight to get by. Yeah.

But that's what we signed up for.

We signed up to try and save

the world, not just delay the inevitable.

Last night, I. I couldn't stop thinking.

Why are we even going to Atlas?

Weiss. We have to. Why?

Osbourne hid

the relics behind giant doors under enormous schools.

But how long would it take Salem to find a lamp in the middle

of nowhere? But the Grimm might.

They'd find it eventually. Sure. But bury

it or just throw it down the well. It would take years.

It might not even happen in our lifetime.

But we could be done with it now.

I am. Really tired.

Thank.

No, no.

Ruby. It's okay. No, no.

Hey. It's okay. You just said you're tired.

It was probably nothing. Now let's go.

Wrong with you. We can't just..

Leave. We have to go down there.

We have to get the lamp back. Oh, what was I thinking?

Oh, we have to do is fix this trailer.

If farm boy check the shed for a spare.

I'm not leaving without the lamp.

Oh. I'll go down with you. We'll go down together.

Fine. Get a stupid lamp. Oscar, fix a stupid tire.

Where are you going? Where do you think?

Stupid.

Maybe the current carried it away.

Oh, come on, where is it?

Turn off your lights and just look for the glow. Okay?

There.

Guys, I.

Ruby.

What is it?

What is this? My w*apon..

Feels heavy. Run! Now.

This way.

Can't do this. I can't.

An exit. An exit.

Oh. Come on.

Bleak. Get up.

Blake.

Cutter. What just happened?

No, no. Uh.

Ruby. What color are your eyes? There. Silver.

You have a family? Friends? What? Don't think about them.

Think about the people who love you.

Focus on the thought of them. The way they make you feel.

Focus. Focus.

Life is beautiful. It is precious.

And it must be protected. Protected.

We're back in the house.

Uncle Crow. Get up! Hey! Get off me! What are you doing here?

We're leaving, you idiots! Come on! No.

Not yet.

We have to go now.

Hey, what are you doing?

Now we can leave.

Stop it! Stop! What's wrong with you? What's.

The apathy. They're not strong or ferocious.

They drain your will to go on.

Bartleby's estate was hemorrhaging money towards the end.

He wanted to cut costs on huntsmen protection,

but in order to do that, he needed everyone. Calm. Always.

Managed to get to away from their pack.

Hike back was miserable but got the bastards in the cellar.

Wife thinks I was out sealing the waterway entrance.

I'll do it tomorrow and tell her the truth.

Once these things take the edge off of everyone.

I'm tired. The next page proves that he did,

but not before the rest of the pack

followed their missing bear all the way home.

My guess is they made their way

beneath the estate, through the water tunnels

that Bartleby sealed up the next morning.

Bartleby's plan worked.

No one was angry or sad or scared.

No one was anything. And then no one was left.

I'm sorry for what I said. About giving up.

Me too. We can't quit until the lamp is safe.

It's not your fault. It was those things..

I should have known. The signs were all there,

but I'd never seen an entire settlement withered away like that.

I suppose my mind just isn't what it used to be.

Ms.. Talavera. How do you know so much about the grim?

And in the tunnels, you knew exactly what to say. To make me.

To make my eyes do that. How?

Well, isn't it obvious, girl?

I had silver eyes.
