Later that evening, as the sun slowly sets, the teams are busy making their trek up north towards the battleship.
"Are we there yet?" N. Trance asks.
"Not yet." Dingodile replies, wiping sweat off of his forehead.
"Can you feel the suspense in the air, Stew?" Chick asks. "The final battle is nigh!"
"You said it, Chick!" Stew exclaims. "I'm about ready to make omelettes out of these foolish Titans!"
"Not the time for witty commentary, guys." Ami tells them.
N. Gin gasps and exclaims, "Guys! Look!"
Finally, after spending hours upon hours of walking, the teams eventually arrive at the battleship.
"It's the battleship! We made it!" Cortex exclaims.
"You see that, guys? We actually did it." Coco says.
Pasadena turns to Crash and says, "Come on, Crash! What do you say we go in there and save your girlfriend, huh?"
Crash happy cheers as Coco asks, "What are we waiting for, everyone? Let's teach that rat a lesson!"
Everyone starts to charge towards the battleship before they are stopped in their tracks by Ami and Crunch.
"Hold on! Hit the brakes, everyone!" Ami says as everyone comes to a stop.
"Why? What's wrong?" asks Cortex, confused.
"We may have overlooked one small detail." Crunch says, gesturing towards the battleship.
Everyone looks out and sees that the battleship is surrounded by Titans of all shapes and sizes guarding the perimeter. Not to mention the hazardous obstacle course below them.
"Well, looks like we're up a creek without a paddle here." Coco says.
"What do you mean 'up a creek?'" Nash asks. "Let's just do what we did last time!"
"Yeah! Get out our weaponssss and powerssss and tear thessse Titansss a new one!" Komodo Moe says.
"Well, we could, but they easily outnumber us by at least two or maybe three hundred." Megumi tells him.
"Yeah. They could easily rip us apart if we even attempted to challenge them!" Nina adds.
Everyone then turns and sees the sun setting over in the west.
Megumi continues, "And besides, it's getting late, anyways. We need our rest."
"And I heard that these Titans are at their most active, and most vicious, at night when they detect intruders." Cortex warns the others.
Coco turns to the group and tells them, "Well, looks like we'll have to camp here for the night, everyone."
Everyone murmurs and nods in agreement as Coco continues, "Everyone! Find a group to camp with and get some shut eye! We have a big day ahead of us tomorrow."
"And most importantly, keep it down!" Ami tells everyone. "We don't want any Titans coming after us."
As everyone starts to set up camp, Pasadena takes Fake Crash by the hand and says to him seductively, "Come on, cutie! You're bunkin' with me tonight. We'll be gettin' real close to each other, if you know what I mean."
Fake Crash, catching on, giggles happily before Coco says to the two of them, "Well, if you're going to do... whatever it is you plan on doing, please try to be quiet, okay?"
After setting up his campsite, Crash sees Coco approaching him and gestures towards her own personal sleeping bag.
"Thanks for setting up our campsite, big brother." Coco says as she sits down next to Crash. She sighs and vents to Crash, "I really hope Isabella will be able to meet up with us tomorrow. I really don't want to lose another mother figure, not after we lost our own mother years ago. And Aku Aku's most likely dead, considering that Pinstripe used his and Uka Uka's magic to create that new evil mask. Being without a parental figure in this post-apocalyptic mess is absolutely terrible! I think I'm going to cry..."
Coco starts to tear up, but quickly stops when Crash rests his hand on her shoulder, giving her a warm smile of brotherly love.
"Aww, that's right. I almost forgot! I have you to look out for me, Crash!" Coco happily says as she gives Crash a sisterly hug. "Isabella may not be here to comfort me, but at least you're here, even if you're not the brightest bulb in the bunch."
Crash laughs happily before he stops and sees N. Brio looking out towards the battleship. He gets up and approaches Brio, getting the attention of Liz and Dingodile, who start to follow him.
Crash, approaching Brio, says something to him through curious gibberish.
"Oh, hi, Crash." Brio says as he sees Crash, Liz and Dingodile approaching him.
"Aren't you coming to sleep with us?" Liz asks, concerned.
"You all go ahead." Brio says to them. "I'll keep watch throughout the night."
"No need to do that, mate." Dingodile tells him. "You've suffered enough."
"Yeah, why don't you come sleep with us?" Liz asks him. "We'll make you feel right at home."
"Really? Thanks, guys!" Brio exclaims.
"You get your sleep, Brio. I'll keep watch." Dingodile says as he takes Brio's place. "At least I'm armed."
"Ah. Good point. Well, good night." Brio says.
"Come on, Crash!" Coco says, calling him back to their campsite.
Crash, Brio and Liz head back towards the others while Dingodile stands over the horizon keeping watch on the others.
