Goliath: one thousand
years ago,

Superstition
and the sword ruled.

It was a time of darkness.

It was a world of fear.

It was the age of gargoyles.

Stone by day,

Warriors by night.

We were betrayed by the humans

We had sworn to protect,

Frozen in stone
by a magic spell

For 1,000 years.





Now, here in manhattan,

The spell is broken

And we live again.

[Deep growl]

We are defenders
of the night.

We are gargoyles!

Goliath:
humans love adventure.

What, they wonder,
lies over the hill,

Across the ocean,

Beyond the stars?
Perhaps they believe

That they will discover
answers there--

Wisdom too elusive to be
uncovered nearer to home.

But within the unknown

Lies great danger.





And with every new adventure,

An anxious loved one
is left praying

For a safe return.

Anything?

Not yet.
But it's like before.

I could feel 'em.
They're here,

Just waitin' to pounce.

[Grunts]

[Growls]

[Grunts]

[Growls]

Don't worry.
I've got him.

[Grunts]

[Thud]

[Panting]

[Grunting]

[Grunting]

Come on!
They're gettin' away!

Lexington: bronx!

Where'd you go, boy?

[Whimpering]

-Bronx!
-[g*ns f*ring]

[Gasps]

[Howling]

[Grunting]

[Howling]

Bronx!

[Wimpering]

Stay, bronx! Stay!

Stay, bronx!
I'm coming!

[Growling]

[Howling]

[Grunting]

Bronx!

Uh-oh.

[Grunts]

I'm coming!

Not now!

[Grunts]

[Snorting and grunting]

They're in trouble,
xanatos. I can feel it.

Don't worry. Lexington knows
to find a safe place

If they can't
make it back by dawn.

And where would
that safe place be?

Antigargoyle hysteria
keeps getting worse.

[Men shouting]

Even the strongest gargoyles

Are easy targets
during the day.

I'll use my resources
to search for them, detective,

But we have to keep
a low profile.

Of course.
Meanwhile, I'll check

With every precinct
in the city.

If anyone finds them,

Let's hope it's a friend.

Boy: wow!

Look at that!

I've never seen
such big wheels!

Matthew, what is this?

Uh, it's nothing.

More rot!

But, father...

They're just stories.

What am I to do
with you, matthew?

The outside world draws you

Like a moth to a flame.

[Father sighs]

You are a great trial
to me, my son.

[Gasping]

[Grunts]

What?

Oh. Hee hee.

[Clanks]

Statue.

Ooh. Hah.

Gettin' jumpy in my old age.

[Snarling]

What...

Uh...

Uh, is that...

[Muttering]

[Grunts] it's...

[Growling]

[Creaks]

[Yawns]

[Yells]

[Growls]

[Whimpering]

[Grunts]

[Grunting]

[Coughs]

[Gasping]

[Wind howling]

It was just a book.

[Owl hooting]

We are to see nothing,

To try nothing,

To hear nothing!

There must be more to life.

[Distant howling]

[Gasping]

[Howling]

It's getting pretty late.

Uh, I'd better get home.

[Sniffing]

[Multiple howlings]

[Snarling]

[Panting]

[Howling continues]

[Panting and gasping]

[Barking]

[Barking continues]

[Grunts]

[Gasp]

[Growling]

[Snarling, barking]

[Snarling]

[Howling]

[Whimpering]

Nice...

Whatever you are.

Good-good boy.

You weren't saving me
for your own d-d-dinner, right?

-[Sniffing]
-hey,

I've got something you'd like.

My mother baked it.

[Sniffing]

[Grunts]

Oh...

You must be hungry.

[Grunting]

-[Whimpers]
-you're hurt!

Oh... You'd better
come home with me.

I'll get you
all kinds of food to eat.

Come on!

[Whining]

I warned lexington
about his constant exploring.

If anything's happened to him,

It's my fault.

I'm monitoring all broadcasts,
goliath.

If anyone's seen him--

Look!

There he is!

Thank goodness.

I'm-i'm sorry, but--

Well-well, you know
how much bronx loves trains.

I-i-i just never thought
that we'd get in trouble
just watching them.

Then the next thing I know,

He-he's speeding away,

And there was no way
to get him off.

There's nothing here.

Oh, but there was,
I tell ya.

A regular monster!

I think maybe it's
one of them garglers

That's out to destroy mankind!

You mean gargoyles.

And they're only in new york.

Well, they're sneaking in
by the hundreds.

They're gonna grab us all
in our sleep!

I'm tellin' you,
there are no gargoyles

In pennsyl...vania.

That is...

Until now.

According to
the station master,

A train left the new jersey yard
just before midnight,

Headed for pittsburgh.

I have an unmarked jetcopter

Fueled and waiting.

[Sniffs]

It's ok.

You'll be safe in here.

[Growling softly]

Look, you've got
to stay out of sight.

Whatever you are,

I know my father
wouldn't let me keep you.

[Sighs]

Good boy.

[Wood creaks]

[Door creaks]

Wake up, boy!
I've got--

[Gasp]

What did I do wrong?

Look.

I brought milk and bread...

Sausages--

-[Bang]
-[gasp]

[Banging]

[Neighing]

Whoa! Whoa!
Easy, jacob. Easy!

Easy!

[Neighing continues]

There, there.
Quiet, jacob.

[Vehicle approaching]

We're here to search
your farm, pops.

Got monsters on the loose.

Mean ones...
From manhattan.

We're checking every barn
in the area.

Monsters?

There are no monsters here.

Hey, pops,

We're here to help.

Your help is not needed.

We have seen your help before!
Now, go!

Or what? Your kind
doesn't believe in v*olence.


[Grunts]

[Neighs]

[Gasps] father.

-Leave him alone!
-Come on, man.

We don't need the cops
coming down on us again.

Hands off!

I'll see you later.

[Car doors close]

-[Car engine starts]
-it is all right, mother.

They're leaving.

He isn'ta monster.

I know he isn't.

Why didn't you just
let them search the barn?

They might have hurt you.

Because they had
no business on our land.

Whatever it takes,

A man must do what is right.

[Snarling]

Wow!

That's good.

Eat it all.

Hey,
you're not limping.

Now we can go on an adventure.

Ha ha! Whoa! Ha ha!

If manhattan's
where you're from,

Then manhattan's
where we're gonna go!

[Grunting]

You'd better hurry it up

If we're gonna make it
by daylight.

But watch out for--

[Yells]

Rocks!

Whoa!

[Grunts]

Whoa! Ha ha!

Woh-ho!

[Grunts]

Whoa! Look out!

Whoa!

[Grunts]

[Grunts] ha ha!

[Grunts]

Now, that'show to make time!

[Vehicle approaching]

Ya-hoo!

We're gonna bag us a monster!

[Bang]

[Barks]

A truck.

I've always wanted
to ride on one...

But it's forbidden.

[Barks]

No! Wait!

[Grunts]

[Truck shuddering]

Old highways.

Whoo-hoo!

[Laughing]

[Tires squealing]

Oh, no!

Uh-oh. It's those
monster hunters.

Ha ha!

We got 'em now!

Hey!

Pull over!

Get outta here!

Local yahoos!

[Tires squealing]

[Truck horn blaring]

You'll hurt the kid!

I'm callin' the highway patrol.

Gutless.

Pennsylvania h.p.
Is setting up a roadblock.

They say a gargoyle
snatched a little boy.

Let's go.

[Groans]
oh, now what?

[Brakes hissing]

We're slowing down!

Jump, boy!

[Growling]

[Grunting

[Hissing]

Whoa-ah-hoo!

Whoa!

Oh!

You ok?

Yeah, yeah, but get him.

Look what he did to my truck!

Here they are!

Whoa!

No!

I can't reach you!

[Grunting]

[Grunting]

-It's ok, kid.
-[Grunts] let me go!

You're safe now.

Let me go!

[Grunts]

Hey, kid--

[Grunts]

[Panting]

No!

Don't be afraid.

-I'm looking for--
-i know! He's down there!

Under the ice!

Did you hear that?

Loud and clear.

It's another gargoyle!

He's got the boy!

[Coughing]

[Grunts]

[Gasping]

There's the beast! Fire!

[Roars]

Whoa-whoa!

[Grunts]

Come on, boy!

[Grunting]

Huh?

Where are you taking him?

Home...

Thanks to you.

He likes sausages!

[Whimpering]

Thanks for the adventure.

I'm sorry, bronx.

I will never lose you again.

[Contented moaning]

[Laughs]

Most humans fear us so.

I wonder if there ever
can be peace between us?

Tell me, matthew,

Weren't you frightened?

At first I was,
because he looked so scary.

But once I got to know him,

I knew he was good inside.

And that's what counts...
Isn't it?

Something for us all
to remember.

[Bronx grunting]

[Laughter]
