[Iron town]

Toki:Kohroku, can you pass me the nails?

Kohroku:Yes, dear, just let me…(looks for the nails)

Toki:Seriously? How could you misplace those? They were right at your feet! What if somebody steps-

Ashitaka:Don't worry, Toki, I have them(gives the bucket back them)I put them over here when I picked them up.

Toki:Oh, that's alright.Come on, you dolt, if you work hard enough, we may be able to finish this up before nighttime comes.
So, Ashitaka, how are things going with you and the Wolf Girl?

Ashitaka:Things are going well, I suppose.
I haven't seen her for a while, though.

Later after all of that,He led Yakul out from the stables and leapt atop the elk.

He pulled the bottom part of his mask over his face and rode off into the Forbidden Forest to meet with San.

[Forest]

Marinette woke up

Marinette:where am i?...a...forest?

Samuel:ugh...the fuck?

Marinette:YOU!(chokes him)

Samuel:A-ACK!W-WHY WO-WONT Y-YOU DIE?!

Marinette:YOU THINK I DONT KNOW?!

Ashitaka followed the out of place rocks and tree carvings that made a path to where San was.

Samuel:(punches her in the face)ITS YOUR FAULT!MURDERER!

Marinette:...YOU BASTARD!

Ashitaka:(dismounted Yakul and left him)

He did not bother to tie Yakul's reins, as he knew that he wouldn't wander off.

Samuel:YOUR THE ONE WHO KILLED MY BROTHER!YOU SAID YES TO HAWKMOTH,YOU BECAME A MURDERER,AND NOW SOMEHOW JOINED SOME STUPID GOVERMENT TO PROVE YOUR NOT A MURDERER?!YOU ARE A LIAR!

Marinette:...(punches him in the face)

Samuel:AGH...YOU BIIIIITCH!!!!!!(gets into a fight with her)

Ashitaka:hey!(aims his bow at them)theres no reason to fight

Samuel:WHO ARE YOU?!

Ashitaka:come with me.both of you.

...

Samuel:...after all of this,we are enemies again.

Marinette:fine.

They followed ashitaka until they heard panting which also caused ashitaka run up to them

Samuel:HEY!

Okami and Urufu:(saw ashitaka)

Samuel:wolves?

Marinette:no one...move...

...

Ashitaka:(walks up to them and bows down to them)

Samuel:what?is this place being ruled by wolves?

Ashitaka:no,but they are my future brothers in law

Samuel:so you married a werewolf?

He saw one of San's hands as she grabbed the stone floor to pull herself up. Ashitaka took her hand and helped her up. When San got on her feet, she saw Ashitaka. Smiling with joy, she gave him several licks to his face, something which unnerved him the first few times she did it, but he grew used to it. Ashitaka returned her licking by kissing her.

Samuel:im confused.

Marinette:so am i

Ashitaka:It's great to see you, San.

San:It's great to see you, too.Where have you been? I thought you had gotten hurt or become sick.

Samuel:trying to make sure we dont fight to the death

Ashitaka:I wasn't sick, but there were a lot of villagers with a terrible sickness, so Lady Eboshi made me stay to try and help keep up with the repairs around Irontown.

San:That's odd; many of the beasts of the forests have also become ill. I don't know what it is, but it's greatly affected the Ape Tribe.

Samuel:so your saying some sort of disease has been spread?

Marinette:but why?

Samuel:I ONLY ASK THE QUESTIONS MURDERER!why though?

San:i dont know.

Ashitaka:I wish we were able to meet in the day and not always at night.

San:Why not just take the day off? Surely they won't miss having one person gone.

Ashitaka:I would have to ask Lady Eboshi. I doubt she would let me go, even if it was only for a day so I could see you. She doesn't have any sort of grudge against you, but she is still the stern woman she's always been.

Samuel:where are we though?

Ashitaka:the forest of the forest god.

Samuel:forest of the forest god?
