Night 3
Meanwhile, Hiccup and Astrid were climbing up a ledge. They soon reached the top, and they soon spotted the river.
"The boat must be around that bend." Said Hiccup.
Then suddenly, something started to appear in the mist.
Something big.
It emerged through the mist, and it was Kong.
He got a little closer, and the 2 kept still. And regretted of not taking their dragons with them. But Kong showed no signs of aggression, or signs wanting to attack. Only showing curiosity.
Then Astrid took a step forward, and placed a gentle hand on his nose. Hiccup and Astrid were amazed by this, as if they were seeing the true nature of Kong. Not a deadly monster, but a gentle giant. And almost human.
Eventually Kong took a step back, and then 3 explosions were seen a distance away. And soon Kong left them.
"We have to go. Now." Said Hiccup.
And begin to head back to the others.
Over with Packard's group, they were at a large lake and a few explosions went off. And Packard was holding a lit torch, and then they heard by trees breaking. And then a explosion revealed Kong on the other side of the lake.
This was the moment Packard's been waiting.
Meanwhile, the other riders, Brooks, San and Ragnar were still waiting. And then heard ahead, and Brooks aims his crossbow.
"Don't shoot!" Hiccup said as he and Astrid appeared.
"Hiccup, which way are we going?" Brooks asked.
"You 3 need the go back to the boat." Hiccup said and pointed the direction where the boat is. "It's that way. Wait for us till dawn. If we're not back by then, just go."
Brooks scoffs. "You ain't gotta twist my arm."
"Where are you 2 going?" Ragnar asked.
"Were going to save Kong." Hiccup answered.
"Not without me, pal."
Meanwhile, Kong begins to approach Packard's team and then stops at the edge of the lake. And soon both were at a stare off, waiting to see who will strike first. ANd then, Kong beats his chest lets out a roar.
He then charges in the lake, and towards them. Once Kong was close enough, Packard threw the torch. And when it lands in the water, the lake suddenly burst into flames.
Kong roars in pain and the entire teams watches. And after a few moments, the roars died and vanish. Packard clenched his fists, thinking that he finally got him. And all was quiet for a minute.
Then suddenly, almost as if he was escaping the gates of Hell. Kong came out of the flames, everyone back out of the way and then Kong swung his right at the water. And a man got caught in flames.
Then Steve saw he was in trouble.
"Oh, dear." He said.
Then Kong raised his right foot, and then stomps him like a bug. Then suddenly, Kong got extremely weak and then he collapses and slumps to the ground with a massive thud.
"Men!" Packard called. "Place your charges. It's time to show Kong that man is king!"
Soon they begin to ready the explosives.
"Arm one." Said Reles.
"Arm two." Said Cole.
"Arm three." Said Mills.
Packard begin to set his.
"Packard!" Hiccup suddenly appeared with Toothless.
Soon the other riders appeared along with their dragons. Packard's raised their crossbows.
"Don't do it." Said Hiccup.
Astrid and Heather brought their axes. And then Ragnar appeared behind Reles, and aims his crossbow at Slivko.
"I asked you fellas nice the first time." Ragnar warned.
"We don't wanna fight here, Packard." Astrid said.
"This thing brought us down! It killed my men!" Packard said.
"Kong was just defending his territory." Said Hiccup.
"We are soldiers! We do the dirty work, so our families and our countrymen don't have to be afraid! They shouldn't even know a thing like this exists! Or anything else that live on this living Nightmare!"
"You've lost your mind." Said Hiccup. "Put that Nightmare jar down."
Everyone remained quiet, and then Packard still unconvinced took a couple steps forward. He then holds out the jar over some explosive fuel, threatening to drop it.
"Stop!" Heather called. "The world is bigger than this."
"Mitch, please!" Packard thinking she's crazy. "Slivko, get her out of there!"
But Slikvo felt uneasy and unsure of this.
"You know it's the wrong thing to do, son." Said Ragnar.
Everything was silent for a minute.
"Put it down, sir." Slivko turning towards Packard.
Then Packard reached for his crossbow.
"Packard!" Hiccup stopping him.
Soon everyone lowered their weapons.
"Come on." Said Hiccup. "It's over."
Then suddenly, they heard a distant bubbling sound.
"What was that?" Astrid turning to sound's direction.
They all turned to the lake, and then there was great disturbance on the water's surface. Then suddenly there was a explosion of water as if something leaped out of the lake. And suddenly, something crashes onto the lake standing. And it was revealed to be a large Skullcrawler that is big, even for his kind. And he had 2 spikes on each elbow.
Ramarak.
Ragnar immediately knew who it was. "That's the Big One."
"Fall back. Hiccup ordered.
Then Ramarak snarled.
"You never said he was this big!" Snotlout panicked and turned to Ragnar. "What were you thinking?"
"I did say he was bigger!" Ragnar said.
"Uh, yeah! But that was before I saw it!"
"Go!" Hiccup called.
"You know what, I'm going to... Head to the boat. Yeah get to the boat." Snoutlout back away. "Wow, he's big!"
He then turns and runs. And soon everyone left.
Then Ramarak let out a loud screech. Announcing his return.
The others ran through the forest.
"That is big! That is really, really big!" Snotlout yelled.
Then Hiccup turned to Packard.
"Colonel." Hiccup said.
But Packard his attention on the giant Skullcrawler.
"Sir!"
Ramarak continues screeching.
Soon Hiccup came to his senses.
"Let's go, bud!" He said as he ran.
Hiccup and Toothless were forced to leave Packard behind. And when they were gone, Ramarak begins to approach him. Then Packard heard a sound behind him, and looks and then Kong shot his eyes open.
Kong then lifted his head, and Packard ready his explosive. And Kong glared at him.
"Die, you motherfu..."
Kong then slams his right fist Packard, and crushed him.
In the forest at a distance. Astrid stopped and looks over to where Kong was.
Kong got up, but then Ramarak lunges at him. And knocks him over off his feet, and Ramarak had his jaws on Kong's right wrist. And then, the colossal Skullcrawler places his left hand of Kong's face. And then forces him to the ground, and then Kong's body limped.
Ramarak then screeches and looks around, and then he turns towards the forest. Almost looking at her.
Then suddenly Astrid yelps in surprise as Hiccup grabbed her, and pulls her away.
"Kong's down. Let's go!" Hiccup said as they rushed off.
