DemonaWe've dreamed for a thousand years, Goliath. It's time for our dreams to come true.
DemonaI have a name, too, Goliath. The humans gave it to me long ago. You should know it before you die. I am... Demona.
DemonaYou don't know the depths to which humanity can sink, my young friend. But I do. Over the centuries, I've seen hundreds of horrors that would blast your soul! Come let me show you what mankind is really like.
DemonaWhat would you do? Capture him for human justice? He'd be out of jail in a day.
DemonaThey can't even share their homes without fighting. What makes you think they will share this world with us.
DemonaThey hold each other's lives completely without worth. And you think they will accept us with open arms?
Demona[as she's fighting Goliath who's still under a spell] Even with no will of your own, you're a force to be reckoned with.
Demona[Angrily] I don't know who the bigger fool is? Him for leading, you for following, or me for not leaving you both.
Demona[as she's fighting Hudson] I would have ended this quickly! But now you'll suffer!
DemonaI wanted you to destroy the humans, not give them the gift of being a gargoyle!
DemonaThe sun... it's glorious! I never thought that it could feel so good. [She walks past Titania's Mirror and sees that Puck has transformed her into a Human] NO! [glass shatters]
DemonaOmnes conspecti, omnes auditi, In nocte usque ad saxum commutate. Dum caelum ardeat! (Latin: "All who see and hear this, turn to stone every night. Until the dark skies burn!")
DemonaBut first, I'll take care of some. I thought I'd rid myself of you long ago, human. Fortunately, that mistake is easily rectified.
Macbeth: I have hunted you through the centuries for my vengeance.
DemonaTake off that mask. You're not fooling anyone, MacBeth.
DemonaDon't be afraid. I just want to talk.
Uh-huh? Yeah, last time we met, you just wanted to blow me away with a bazooka.
DemonaThat was then.
And this is goodbye. [prepares to glide off]
DemonaWait, please! I'm sorry, Brooklyn. I know I shouldn't have shot at you. I was crazy with grief and rage. If you only knew what I've gone through for hundreds of years, dealing with the humans...
Hundreds of years? I thought you were under the sleep spell like we were.
DemonaIt's a long story. Centuries long. I'd like to tell you about it. If you'll let me.
I don't trust you, Demona.
But not all humans are like that. Elisa is our friend.
DemonaPerhaps the policewoman is the exception that proves the rule. But can she keep you safe from the rest of humanity? Only we can protect each other, Brooklyn. We must be united and strong. And willing to deal with the humans as they would deal with us! Goliath thinks we can hide amidst the humans like mice and hope for their understanding. This is not possible.
Demona? So you did survive.
DemonaI always survive.
