Beowulf Page #3

So, now it's over,

I suppose you'll be leaving us.

I've finished here.

Well, then you'll leave

without knowing my biggest secret.

There's more?

- One more.

- And that is?

How I feel.

What are you scared of?

This is my life.

It can't be shared,

especially with anyone

that cares for me.

- You're afraid of me.

- No.

I'm not afraid of you.

I'm afraid for you.

I've found something I never thought

in this place of death and misery.

- You mustn't love me.

- But that's for me to say.

How do you know it wasn't me

that drew you to this place?

- Because you're not evil.

- Maybe not,

but tonight

I am full of magic.

Let's drink a toast.

To us...

for surviving.

And to those who didn't.

- To Beowulf.

- To Beowulf.

Who's there?

Who are you?

Why, I'm your dreams

and desires come to life.

This is not a dream.

You're right.

Tell me,

is this real enough for you?

Where'd you come from?

How the hell did you get in here?

Where I came from

is not important.

What you should ask

is why I'm here.

So, why are you here then?

To tell you something

about the ways of women.

She's treated you badly.

Such a foolish girl.

You're so much more

a man than him.

So much more.

- I... don't have time for this.

- There's nothing to do tonight.

Everyone's out celebrating

their survival.

Why not you?

You deserve the best.

Such loyalty.

You've given so much.

And you have

so much more to give.

Any woman...

would be very lucky

to have you.

Any woman.

Let me be your comfort.

So now you have to tell me

who you are.

It's what lovers do.

I'll find out

one way or another.

Are you threatening me?

I could think of worse things.

I want to know.

My mother's family

had an outpost like this one.

One night when she was young,

she saw a light-

a beautiful silver light

that called her name.

She was drawn.

She followed it to an opening

in the hill that never existed.

And inside he was waiting for her.

He?

Every night for three months

she went to him.

Then the last night

of the third month,

he told her she was pregnant...

- and she was to name the child-

- Beowulf.

Who was he?

My mother died never knowing.

But the Elders had no doubts.

They told me my father was Bale,

god of darkness, lord of lies.

You don't believe that?

The only thing that

stops me from becoming evil...

is fighting evil.

So, this is how it must be?

Battle after battle...

until you die?

Yes, this is how it must be.

- How can-

- Shh.

What?

You're scaring me.

What?

It's here.

What's here?

- You killed it.

- Not the beast.

Something older, subtler.

Let me come with you.

No, please.

Get back with the others.

You were right. It was

your magic that brought me here.

Then maybe it'll be my magic

that brings you back.

Kyra, where have you been?

We're waiting for you.

It's not over.

We need to warn the others.

My friend.

Have you come for me, my love?

You weren't so shy when you

took this outpost and me.

Is this any way to treat

your long-lost lover?

Who is this, Father?

After we stormed the outpost,

she was waiting.

- She came to me in the night.

- What?

And what pleasures we had.

You're the reason

my wife killed herself!

Oh, no, no, no, love.

That was your honor. It was your

face she watched when she jumped.

- No.

- You whore!

Harsh words for the mother

of your child.

- What?

- The beast, he's your son, Grendel.

Conceived at the height

of victorious bloodshed.

Impossible.

That thing's not human!

He's half.

That's why he's so handsome.

- All this... for love spurned?

- Love?

You're so simple.

Long before the outpost was built

this was my land and my home.

My son has the older claim.

He has come for what is his right.

I thank God now

for the opportunity to kill you.

No!

That... was a mistake.

No mistake.

I only kill when I have to.

You kill for pleasure.

Their blood was sweet.

I sucked their veins,

chewed their bones,

wet and still alive.

Hot blood pumping

down my throat.

Mmm.

You should try it.

It will appeal to you.

You know nothing

about what appeals to me.

Don't I?

How will her blood taste?

You've wondered.

You can't help it.

You look at her,

your blood pumps.

Your mouth becomes wet.

You haven't confused that hunger

for something else, I hope.

I'm not confused.

I know exactly why I'm here.

Tell me, what blood

mingles with yours?

Who spread your mother's legs,

gave you strength to beat my son?

Someone stronger than you.

That's doubtful.

I know you feel the pull towards me.

You can't help it.

I need you inside of me.

You're on the edge of control now...

with fresh kills inches away...

and me so close,

aching for you.

Does it burn in you, the hunger,

for blood, for flesh?

Is it sweet to you,

the scent of my son's kills?

Tell me, hero.

Whose world do you

really belong to, theirs or mine?

Here and now

it's just you and me.

And I will see you

pay for your sins.

Do you dare?

Would you know me?

I'm old, child-

older than sin.

Would you take me here in the dark?

Do your loins at this moment,

at this moment of death,

do they burn for me?

I burn, but not for you.

So be it.

You've come for answers.

See what the truth brings you.

Come, sample the true delights

of flesh with me.

Feel what no human woman

can offer you.

It's time.

Beowulf!

Come on.

Let's go.

Come on. We have to go.

I lost everyone I loved

in that place.

My whole life was there.

Where will you go?

With you.

I don't know where I'm going,

or what I'll find when I get there.

If I stay with you the darkness

will seek me out.

And how would I protect you?

I'll show you,

if you let me.

It's not safe to be with me.

It's clear to me that by your side

is the safest place there is.

I can't make you any guarantees.

I'll take that chance.
