Help!
Someone come quickly!
A car has crashed!
A boy is hurt
Help me, someone
Where is everyone?
Hello?
Can you hear me?

"His skin is so pale", she thinks

Can you see me?

His eyes open for a moment
Eyes from another world
Gray as the sky

Oh, gods
Oh, gods
You saved my life for a reason
And now I think I know why

He roared down the road like the devil himself
Going too fast around the curves
Sent us scrambling off the road like chickens
He has what he deserves

Papa Ge wants him
And Papa Ge will have him
The boy is dying before our eyes
Help him
Hide him

No!
Don't touch him
Better leave him where he lies
Even a wealthy man sometimes dies

Please!
He needs help

If this boy dies in our hands
The rich will send police

He needs care

And if he lives
Oh, how angry the gods will be

The only thing that will save the boy's life
Is to send him back to his world

The only thing that will save the boys life is me
I have prayed to the gods and at last they've answered
They saved my life so that I could save his
My heart knows this
Please, Tonton

I will find where he comes from

Julian! No

I will find who he is
And soon
But 'til I return you care for him, Ti Moune

And bidding his wife and daughter goodbye
Monsieur Julian set off down the road
Toward the Black Mountains

The peasants carried the boy to the village
And laid him on Ti Moune's mat

And her long vigil began

One day gone by
ANd two days gone by

The boy has the will of the devil himself
Clinging to life by one small thread
If it hadn't been for Julian's daughter
He'd certainly be dead

Look how she bathes him
And touches and protects him
She binds his wounds
And she rubs his chest
It's as if the girl's possessed

You need food
You need sleep
You just can't go on without any sleep

Mama, shh

Have some tea

His skin is hot

Have a rest

He needs me here

Can't you see how much this matters to me?
I know what's best

Now the sky is growing dim
And the clouds are racing by
And the gods are looking down
At the boy they meant to die
And the girl who placed herself in their way!

Pray
Pray

Three days gone by
And four days gone by

I fear for the girl and her mother, as well
Nothing but trouble looms ahead
Monsieur Julian could be deep in danger
Arrested, lost or dead

Oh, Asaka, mother of the earth
Guide the feet of this poor peasant man
Hear my prayer
Which way there?
And which way home?

I need herbs

Your father gone

Mama, herbs

And you don't care
Oh, my god
What has this boy done to you?

Mama, shh
He needs rest

Your tonton lost

He needs care

Because of you

Can't you see that he's in terrible danger?
What must I do?

Now the sky is turning dark
And the wind is turning chill
And the gods are out for blood
They've been cheated of their kill
By a girl without the sense to obey

Pray
Pray
Pray

Julian
Where is my Julian?
Bring my Julian home

You want what?

I've come so far and I need-

Get back!

I have some news for Monsieur-

Get back!

Monsieur Beauxhomme has a-

Peasant pig!

Please, I beg!

You must be mad

I must se Monsieur-

Monsieur Beauxhomme?

I have come so far!

So far to die

I have found his son!

Now the sky has turned to black
And the wind is like a knife
Papa Ge is coming back
For the boy who clings to life
And the girl will have to gods to repay!

Pray (Papa Ge, don't come around me)
Pray (Papa Ge, don't come around me)
Pray (Papa Ge, don't come around me)
Pray (Papa Ge, don't come around me)
Pray (Papa Ge, don't come around me)
Pray!
