The rope was fast. He glanced up to the sky. "Do not worry, I will be ready."

He swung his arms around the helmet. "Now!" The green man pulled him up even as the pedestal slammed down. Moments later, fast, water gushed out from the walls quickly filling up the room. The trap was much more powerful here in the past.

Still, he was heading for the light and would be there soon. He rushed up through the air to the light of the sun.

Someone grabbed his foot, breaking his grip. He fell down into the darkness and the water with a great splash. He kicked, knocking them away, feeling a wet sludge feeling, and grabbed the helmet and swum up. Another came at him, their motions making a sound in the water. He kicked them away too. As he did a pair came at him, slamming him back.

He heard one whisper in his ear. "Podeidon will not allow Cronus to be freed. I will end you, japanese man." They were inhumanly strong and powerful. He felt himself being tugged down, heard the helmet slowly sink away.

No. He wouldn't let his quest be ended. For Ashi. He kicked up, knocking the pair aside, and swam for the helmet.

Six more came, darting through the water. He kicked one, punched another, smacked a third in the face with his sword, and swum past the other three. He almost had his hand over the gem when they bullrushed him again, knocking him away. He couldn't let it end like this. He prepared to draw his blade...

Arrows slammed through all of them at once, ripping through the water like it wasn't there. The creatures, monsters of Poseidon, guardian of this gem of cronus, fell off him and sank into the murky water. He swam, grabbed the helmet, and swum up.

Robin Hood, the anglosaxon man in green, held a hand out, and pulled him out of the wet water. Samurai Jack started to work out the gem on the helmet, prising the giant glowing magical creation out.

"Divine monsters down there. What are you getting us into, Jack?"

Jack yanked the eye of Cronus out.

"Rescuing her. Ashi, my bride. Whatever it takes."

Robin Hood gave him a grin.

"She worth dying for?"

Samurai Jack nodded. "I love her."

Robin Hood spun an arrow around in his hand and nodded. "Good luck."
