Synopsis: This post-apocalyptic future story is based on the 8th century Saxon epic poem about the knight who battled a monster in a medieval castle. In this story, Beowulf is a wanderer who learns about a man-eating creature called Grendel which comes in the night to devour warriors trapped at the Outpost. The Outpost is ruled by Hrothgar.

You could say that. Of course,

everyone's gonna die anyway,

but one thing's for sure is

I ain't no weapons master.

You don't have to be good

all the time,

just when it matters.

You're not really here because

of my husband's death, are you?

No.

But if I was,

I would be after Roland,

so why would you be afraid?

I'm not afraid.

I can't afford to be afraid.

Don't you have any fear?

Fear is all I know.

You can feel it.

You can sense it.

Yes.

You said it knows.

What did you mean?

It knows I'm here.

What are you?

I'm trapped between two worlds.

That's what I am.

You can't have her.

I'm not in your way.

I think you are.

You manipulate her

and Hrothgar, but not me.

- We need each other.

- I need no one.

You better go.

- I have to stay.

- Then you fight.

Yaah! Aah!

Aaah!

Don't push your luck, Roland.

Stay sharp.

I'm here to sweeten

your dreams, my love.

It's almost finished, my love.

It's almost finished, my love.

Goddamn!

Geez, Karl.

Get a grip, man.

Sorry. I thought

I heard something.

Yeah?

You heard me!

You know, Karl, with all the real

cool ways to die around here,

I'd rather not go by heart attack.

Uh, let's see.

Look at all this.

You'd think with all this stuff,

we'd be able to kick some ass.

How do you tell all the junk

from the critical stuff?

Your uncle knew.

Yeah, well,

that's real helpful, Karl.

Okay, come on. Let's go.

Let's go. Let's do something.

I'll get the blasters.

Karl, I think I broke it.

Can you come fix this damn thing?

I'll get the blasters.

Will? You okay?

Oh, man, I saw it.

How big was it?

What kind of armor?

Was it shielded?

Was it exposed?

It was-

Man, it was ugly.

It came in broad daylight.

It's tiring of the game.

It wants it done.

Put the women and children

into the sanctuary.

Everyone else patrols in threes and

keep visual contact at all times.

Kyra.

I won't be herded

and locked away.

- I'm fighting this time.

- Join the others in the sanctuary.

A little late to start

protecting me, isn't it, Father?

- Hurry up. Hurry up.

- Hurry up.

Where's Kyra?

Where is she?

I don't know where she is.

I haven't seen her.

We'll never get out of this.

- Move in now.

- Make sure both doors are bolted.

Yes, sir.

All sanctuary doors secured.

All sanctuary doors secured.

- What is it?

- Is there any other way in?

All doors are secured

from the inside.

Aaaah!

Aaah!

Aaah!

Aaah!

Aaah! Daah!

Me! Fight me!

Not you.

Please.

I can't-

Damn.

How is he?

Dying.

He saved my life.

I need more bandages.

He wounded the beast.

Yes.

That gives us a chance.

Perhaps.

Kyra?

All I've ever wanted was you.

I know.

I know.

It won't be long now.
