Early the next morning, light from the sun begins to shine from the horizon. And based at a sea mount with a flat peak rising over the water, about 50 miles north from the coast of Eric's kingdom, Slattern and his army were beginning to get ready.
Armor plating were placed on the Banshee fleet, and among them was a Leonopteryx named Toruk. And a large vulture-like creature similar to a pterosaur but with 2 horns and a beak with teeth-like edges was with them. As well as Smaug and Ghidorah. And the water fleet, made of Sea Dragons, Great Whites, and mid-sized Plesiosaurs in armor along with Ichthyosaurs. Mosasaurs and Pliosaurs were also being suited with armor, as well as Killer Whales and other marine reptiles. And armed with made-shift bombs and water weapons.
Soon, everything was ready as the aerial fleet got ready.
After a few moments, Slattern gave the signal as Ghidorah was the first to take to the air. And soon Rodan take off as well, and Smaug and Toruk soon followed. And one by one, the Banshees took off into the air as well.
With the aerial fleet airborne, Slattern then roars out loudly and then he leaps off the peak and fell into the water. He soon swims off as the rest of the fleet soon followed him.
Bringing the war to Atlantica.
Meanwhile, at Eric's kingdom, many ships and other boats sat in the water of Ocean Harbor. And some members of the fleet were beginning to start their day.
45 miles away, the aerial fleet flew through the air headings towards the kingdom.
At the kingdom, Admiral James was in a golf match as a man struck a ball out.
"Good shot, Hop." James said.
He then saw 2 officers on horses riding over to them as one stopped next to him.
"This better be good, Commander." James said as he got off his horse and saluted.
The aerial fleet continues their route as Ghidorah growled.
"One of scout boats reports having fired and sunk a fake wooden shark attempting to enter Ocean Harbor at 0653." The Commander reported.
James frowned as he checked his pocket watch. "It's 7:20!"
"We had delays, Admiral." The Commander explained.
"Report this to King Eric, and recall the staff." James ordered.
The aerial fleet continues flying over the ocean as Slattern and the rest of his army continued their route towards Atlantica and Eric's kingdom.
Back at the kingdom, James soon arrived as Eric and Grimsby were watching for them after hearing the news.
And an officer approached.
"Admiral... Naval intel just reported a sighting from 2 nights ago, something about a hammerhead creature." An officer said.
"Someone is expecting a war." James said. "Should we?"
Eric then started to get concern.
Meanwhile, the aerial fleet continues their route as ahead of them was a large sea of clouds as they were now several miles from the coast.
In the ocean, Slattern's army begins to close on Atlantica as it begins to come into view.
And it was then that Slattern slowed his approach and got on a rock as his army continued on.
"Hope you're enjoying these last precious moments, Triton." Slattern said. "I'm about to bring a full force at your door."
The aerial continued on as they used the clouds as cover to avoid being spotted too soon. And the distant shoreline started to come into view.
"I am fire." Smaug said. "I am... Death."
In the water, a young Blacktip Shark swam by some rocks when it suddenly darted to the kelp reeds hiding as the army of armored sharks, Sea Dragons and marine reptiles make a beeline towards Atlantica.
Meanwhile, some of the royal guards were alerted and given the order to alert the village.
"Warning of possible army aggressive movement at any direction." An officer said.
"But where?" Eric said still unaware what was happening.
Meanwhile at Ocean Harbor, sailors were beginning to start their day as usual.
Many of which were still asleep.
The aerial fleet begins to close in as they were another 3 miles away.
And were beginning to descend.
In the ocean, Ariel and Melody were asleep just outside Atlantica after Ariel took Melody for a little stargazing last night in hope to cheer her up a little.
Not too far away, the front of Slattern's army were beginning to close in.
At his hiding place, Slattern sharpens his blade as he was saving his energy for a much bigger prize.
Elsewhere, Alex, Lily and Lee were already out playing a game of finball when they suddenly saw the army swimming by them as they saw them of no concern.
"Whoa." Alex said.
A Sea Dragon turns to them but looks back ahead ignoring them.
The trio wasn't sure what to make of it, but they knew something was wrong.
Meanwhile at Ocean Harbor, a few sailors were relaxing by a pier as one was fishing and another reading a book.
In one of the ships, 2 sailors were getting ready as one was shaving.
"Did you ever lose a fight, Miller?" A ship captain asked Dorie.
"I been lucky so far, Captain." Dorie said preparing a tray.
"From what I hear, it ain't luck." The captain said. "Ship's proud of you, son."
Dorie turns to him as he lightly smiled.
Meanwhile, the aerial fleet were beginning to close in on their potential targets.
Somewhere in the village, 3 girls were playing.
At Ocean Harbor, on one of the ships, a sailors tossed some dice and they laughed.
"Yeah! Ha, ha!" A sailor cheered grabbing some money.
Then they noticed the aerial fleet soaring above them.
In the ocean, A Blue Marlin swims by as the army begins to close in.
He swims by Rafe and Danny who were swimming in a chariot as Ariel and Melody were close by.
An armored Dolichorhynchops soars over by as Danny stirred and woke up.
"Why the heck's the Navy doing practice this early on a Sunday?" Danny groaned.
The army continues swimming by as they begin to close on on their targets, main city of Atlantica, even the army base and everything.
Meanwhile, the aerial fleet begins to close in on Ocean Harbor as they begin to soar into attack formation.
1 sailor sweeping the deck soon noticed them as others watched the fleet flew over them.
The Banshees carrying water weapons begin to close in as one positions towards a ship it was closing in. And soon the weapon was released and drops into the water. The weapons soars through the water just under the surface towards the ship.
On the side of the ship, 2 sailors were checking the side for any damage when they noticed the weapon coming at them. And soon the weapon hits the ship and then explodes taking the 2 sailors with it.
"Wha-?!" Danny exclaimed getting up hearing an distant explosion along with Rafe.
Ariel and Melody quickly woke up hearing it and they soon saw the armored sea creatures soaring over them. And soon they saw a number of them at Atlantica as they started attacking them.
At the markets, merpeople suddenly ducked as rapid laser shots from passing sharks and Sea Dragons fired.
At Ocean Harbor, rapid lasers shots were fired as sailors ducked.
"Get down!" A sailor yelled.
A Sea Dragon fire towards where Ariel and Melody were as they quickly swam as they avoided the shots and got into the chariot Rafe and Danny were in.
"Go, go, go, go!" The Marlin said quickly swimming off.
The dolphin strapped to the chariot quickly takes off.
"What's happening?!" Melody asked.
"I don't know!" Ariel said.
At Ocean Harbor, the sailors at the pier were still relaxing when Banshees soared by and explosions struck the nearby ships as they got up.
In one of the ships, a room shook at sailors suddenly woke up.
"All hands, man your battle stations!" A man yelled.
"We're being bombed! We're being bombed!" A sailor yelled out. "Get up! Get up!"
The sailors in their beds were soon aware what was happening, and they quickly got up and hurried out of the room.
Outside, sailors rush by as Banshees flew over them.
At the castle, Eric, Grimsby and James came out and saw the fleet over them.
"Holy Lord!" James said.
"Oh, no." Eric said.
Over Ocean Harbor, a Banshee looks at a photo of the ship, Apollo and scans the ships.
He soon spots the Apollo down below.
In a room of the Apollo, the cook was busy unpeeling potatoes.
"Another dumb drill." He said ignoring the danger signals.
High above, the Banshee soon released the bomb.
The bomb drops and falls through the air through the Apollo, and soon nears the deck in seconds as sailors ran across it's deck.
The bomb punctured through the deck, and drops down behind the cook as he got up surprised as it punches through the floor. The bomb then broke through another room with sailors in it were taken by surprise.
The bomb drops through 2 more rooms as it fell into a magazine cabin with cannonballs and bags of gunpowder. And some cannonballs were knocked down by the bomb.
In the kitchen room, the cook looks down through the hole.
"What the heck was that?!" A sailor yelled as the cook looked up.
The sailors in the room looked through the hole.
"It's a bomb!" A man said.
They then yelled as they hurried out of the room.
The cook then nervously looked back down.
"Move, move, move!" A sailor's voice yelled.
In the magazine cabin, the bomb sat there as it was in the worse possible place.
"Son of a b-" The cook quivered in fear.
On the Apollo's deck, sailors ran as then suddenly the Apollo's bow was thrown upwards.
And the bow of the ship bends as smoke spews from a window, and then a massive explosion rips out through the hull sending a massive shockwave as sailors were thrown into the air.
In one of the ships, Dorie felt the shockwave shaking the ship as the hall rattled.
"From outside!" A sailor said rushing by him.
In the captain's quarters, the captain soon arrived.
"What's happening?!" He asked.
He then saw the Banshees soaring by as ships exploded.
"My God." He said.
He then ducks as rapid lasers shot into the cabin as some sailors were struck and drop to the floor.
"Report battle stations!" The captain ordered. "Manned and ready!"
"Man your battle stations!" A sailor called through a pipe system that runs through the ship to different rooms and halls. "Man your battle stations!"
Another explosion hits from outside.
"This is no shoot! They just sank the Apollo!"
Dorie heard this and sets the tray down as sailors rushed by him.
"General quarters! General quarters! All hands, man your battle stations!"
"Hustle, hustle!" A sailor said rushing by Dorie.
"This is no darn drill!"
Dorie then quickly follows them.
The Banshees continued their attack as Smaug fires a blast near one of the ships.
Sailors on many ships watched and rushed around and many fired guns and rifles trying to shoot them down.
In the ocean, Rafe, Danny, Ariel and Melody watched as more of the water fleet soared over them.
"They look like sharks." Rafe said.
"But where did they get that armor?!" Melody said.
"Danny, you just get me to a doggone craft!" Rafe said.
They watched as more of the water fleet soared over them.
"Holy God!" Rafe yelled as a Mosasaur quickly swam just above them.
"Did you see that?" Melody said.
"Holy gosh!" Ariel said.
"I hope there's still a base left." Danny said.
The aerial fleet continued their attack as 2 Banshees made a dive-bomb approach on 2 ships.
And they released their bombs as they flew off and the bombs struck the ships.
Many sailors yelled and screamed as some jumped as the ship's mast came crashing down.
Explosions sent sailors into the air as they screamed, a sailor fires a rifle as then an explosion sends him flying.
3 Banshees flew by as Ghidorah fires Gravity Beams at 4 ships as massive explosions plume on their decks.
In the air, 2 Banshees flew through the air.
In a house in the village, a woman named Evelyn who is one of the many nurses was still asleep as she soon woke up and heard something in the distance.
She then heads outside and and saw 2 women rushing out.
"Hurry up!" One of them said.
"What in the world?" The other said.
2 Banshees then flew by.
"Look! So many!" A woman said.
2 more Banshees flew by as Evelyn looked and was in shock of seeing the entire harbor under attack and in flames.
Soon, her other nurse friends came hearing the commotion.
Evelyn watched the Banshees fly by and soon turns to her friends.
"Everybody to the hospital!" Evelyn yelled and rushed off.
Meanwhile, at the main palace of Atlantica, 2 armored Great White Sharks and a Cryptoclidus swam towards it.
In one of the halls, Aquata tiredly swam through a hall as she yawned. And she soon noticed the sharks and Plesiosaur outside as she frowned.
The Cryptoclidus and 2 Great Whites close in on the palace as she soon saw their armor.
Aquata was soon fully awake as her eyes widen.
Attina, Alana, Adella, Arista and Andrina were still asleep as Aquata suddenly came into the room shouting and stuttering
"Why's royal duties still buzzin' us?" Adella tiredly asked.
Aquata stammered like mad as she got to the window trying to warn them.
"Shut up, Aquata!" Andrina said trying to sleep.
Aquata continued stammering as she points to the window as her sisters tiredly turn to her.
"Oh, girl, come on." Arista said as Aquata took deep breathes to calm down.
"Come on." Adella said.
"Aquata, it's too early." Attina said.
"WE'RE UNDER ATTACK!" Aquata yelled.
Then suddenly laser shots fired rapidly through the window as Aquata cringed and they all ducked as the lasers soon ceased fire.
"What the heck?!" Attina yelled as they quickly got out of their beds.
"Let's go! Let's go!" Alana said.
They then shouted and rushed off.
Meanwhile, the aerial attack continues as the Banshees fired laser shots at the ships.
On one of the decks, sailors rushed around as Dorie finally made it outside to see what was happening. And he then saw Rodan and Toruk flew by as he saw the whole harbor under attack.
The sound of bombs whistling through the air rang as Dorie hurries off.
The Banshees continued their attack as explosions plume from the ships and they soared by as Smaug and Ghidorah fired blasts. And some sailors in a rowbow cringed as they try to get to shore.
The Banshees continued their attack as Dorie made his way across the deck as laser shots struck here and there.
In the captain's quarters, the captain went over to some crew members.
"Get corpsmen to the bridge." The captain ordered.
"Aye, Captain!" The sailor said.
Outside, a Banshee with a water weapon locks onto the ship.
The weapon was soon released and it hits the water and make a beeline towards the ship.
The captain soon felt the room shaking.
"Repair says third deck is flooding port side!" An officer said.
The room shook more as it got everyone's attention.
And then an explosion struck the wall.
"Yaah!" Dorie yelled holding to the railing as his hat was knocked off. "Uhh!"
2 Banshees flew by.
Dorie quickly hurries up the steps.
Many sailors continued firing rifles other guns, and cannons trying to shoot the Banshees down as one recently struck fell through the air. And crashes onto the deck as many ducked.
They continued firing at he passing Banshees as some bullets bounced off their armor as it was made of an unknown material.
1 officer went over to 3 young sailors recently new that were hiding.
"Get up!" The officer said. "Get up, you cowards! Get up there and fight! Move it!" He got them to their feet.
The sailors continued firing at the Banshees.
"Take cover!" A sailor yelled.
On a ship, some sailors jumped into the water as they shouted.
On many ships, many sailors try to help others that are wounded and some hid in fear.
Meanwhile, Dorie soon found the injured captain.
"I got you, Captain." Dorie said untying his apron.
"You radio for air cover!" Captain said. "Initiate damage control!"
Dorie pressed his apron on the captain's wound.
"Find my X.O. Tell him to assume command." The captain ordered. "And you make sure the gunners..."
"Everyone's where they need to be, Captain." Dorie said. "You trained us well. You trained us well."
Soon the captain grew weaker.
"Captain..." Dorie said.
The captain's life soon fades away, Dorie was about to cry when then an explosion was heard from outside.
"Aah!" Dorie yelled.
He then rushed off.
Meanwhile, villagers ran for their lives as Evelyn and her friends ran as the Banshees continued their attack.
People ran for their lives as screaming and shouting fills the air and laser shots hit the ground.
Evelyn and her friends Sandra quickly ducked behind a fountain as laser shot missing them.
Then growling was heard, and as some people flee on a bridge near the water. A row of forward-curved dorsal plates and a tail rose from the water as Zilla roars out loudly as a man on a horse saw him and was jaw-dropped stunned of what he was seeing.
People quickly avoided him as he climbs over the bridge.
And he stomps down as people ran as Zilla heads off. And he then bites down on a crate with fish and breaks it with his jaws and getting some of the fish. He then heads off and knocks part of a house down and roars out loudly.
And then Otachi lunges of the water and roars out, and then his throat swelled and split his lower jaw and fired a blue acid as it hits a house as the wall melts. And Leatherback leaps out of the water and onto the house and Otachi heads off as Leatherback slams his fist on the roof.
Zilla charged through the street of the village roaring as many people ran as Zilla knocked a wagon over. Many of the castle guards fired at him as his scales were thick enough to keep the bullets from piercing through. And then Zilla fires a blast towards them.
Meanwhile, the merman at the base quickly head off.
"Go, go, go, go!" One of them yelled.
"Let's go! Let's go!" Another yelled. "Everybody move!"
They hurried as a group armored sharks and Ichthyosaurs swam over them along with Plesiosaurs.
"Get the ammo for that 50 sea!" Billy yelled. "Get that 50 sea!"
Many swam as the sharks and marine reptiles swam over them, and then they fired rapid lasers at them as many then dropped to the seafloor.
"Let's go! We gotta get them down!" Billy yelled.
The sharks, Plesiosaurs and Ichthyosaurs continued firing as a Mosasaur joins in as more mermen dropped to the sand. And others took cover by the craft.
"Come on, man, we gotta get this thing loaded up!" Billy yelled getting to a shell-like weapon.
The attack continues as many armored sharks, Sea Dragons, and marine reptiles rushed by firing as many craft were then taken out.
"Let's go!" Anthony yelled. "Let's go!"
Many merman swam as some tried to help any that are wounded.
"Come on! Let's go!" Anthony yelled as Red climbed into a craft.
2 guards fired as they were then shot as 2 armored Great Whites rushed by.
Then, Danny's chariot rushed in as the dolphin came to a stop and Rafe, Danny, Ariel and Melody climbed out.
"Get down!" Rafe yelled.
They hid by the chariot as many merman and other creatures swam by. And laser shots flew by as then part of a hanger collapsed from a passing Tylosaurus and Liopleurodon.
Rafe, Danny, Ariel and Melody quickly took off swimming.
"COME ON!" Rafe yelled.
A Sea Dragon swam by firing laser shots as it takes out a nearby chariot, and a dolphin quickly rushed by as they ducked behind a rock.
"Danny, get me into a darn craft!" Rafe said.
"Come on!" Danny yelled as they rushed off.
Meanwhile, the aerial attack continues on Ocean Harbor as the Banshees fired at the ships.
On one of them, Dorie crawls on the deck as the sailors continued firing at the passing Banshees.
"Get some ammo up here!" A sailor yelled. "We need some men on those guns!"
"Sir!" Dorie yelled. "The captain says you're in charge, sir!"
The sailor then nodded understanding that.
"We need some ammo! Now!" The sailor yelled.
The sailors continued firing at the passing Banshees.
"Medic!" A sailor yelled.
Dorie crawled over and tries to help as a sailor tends a wounded man.
Laser shots flew as one struck a sailor in the head and limps as the Jack Russel Terrier he was holding quickly takes off to find cover.
Dorie noticed a rifle and grabs it, though he was never trained of firing a weapon, he knew it was do or die.
He then loads the gun, and then started firing at any Banshee that flew by.
"AAH! AAH! AAH!" Dorie yelled.
He continued firing as the passing Banshees.
"COME ON!" Dorie yelled. "AAH! COME ON!"
He fired at a Banshee coming at him.
"COME ON, YOU SUM 'WITCH!" Dorie yelled. "AAH!"
He continued firing as then the Banshee was struck and limped as it flew through the air as Dorie ducked. And the Banshee hits against the mast and rips through the sail.
"AAH HA!" Dorie cheered. "OH, YEAH!"
Meanwhile, people rushed into the hospital building as well as Eric, Grimsby, Carlotta and Louis.
"I need a doctor!" A man yelled. "Somebody help me!"
"Take a deep breath." A man said carrying an injured man. "Come on, breathe."
"Get to the supply room!" Evelyn said.
Evelyn and her friends quickly got the supply room.
"Get everything out!" Evelyn said.
They quickly started grabbing what they could find.
Within a few minutes, they rushed into a hall with a few patients were in beds as they hurried through the cabinets.
"Aah!" A nurse cried.
"INCOMING!" A man yelled.
The whole room then shook.
"Cut 'em down!" A doctor said rushing into the room.
Evelyn quickly grabs a razor and folds it open as Eric brought out a knife.
"Come on, come on!" The doctor said rushing over to them. "Get 'em away from the windows!"
They quickly started cutting the patients free from their slings and got them to the wall.
"The mattresses!" Sandra yelled. "Get 'em up against the wall!"
The bed mattresses were quickly placed over them as Evelyn quickly got behind them.
"Take cover!" Eric yelled.
Outside, many ran as then a bomb and a Gravity Beam from Ghidorah struck the ground and exploded. The explosion sent a wagon into the air as it rips through the wall as everyone took cover.
The flaming wagon flipped in the air and hits the ground as a panicked horse whinnied and ran off.
The dust soon clears as Evelyn coughed.
"Is everybody all right?" Carlotta asked.
"Can you stand?" A nurse named Martha asked. "Can you stand?"
"Ohh, my head." Louis groaned.
In Atlantica, merguards fired at the armored sea creatures.
"Hold your fire!" Danny yelled as they rushed near them.
The guards held their weapons up letting them pass as they hurried into a hanger.
"Oh! Shoot!" Rafe exclaimed. "Get down, Danny!"
Danny quickly got to a communicating shell as Rafe and Ariel watched the fight outside. And Melody hid behind a column as 2 Mosasaurs swam by as Rafe quickly hid behind another column. And Danny quickly works on the shell as a friend of theirs' named Gooz hid behind a large shell completely terrified of what was happening.
At a hanger on the other side of Atlantica, a merman quickly grabs a shell.
"Earl!" He said.
"This is Walker!"
"We need to get those craft ready and loaded right now!" Danny said.
"What's going on out there? Huh?" Gooz asked.
Earl heard a muffled explosion.
"Danny, what the heck's that noise?" Earl asked.
"You guys doin' target practice or somethin?"
"I think a war just started!" Danny said.
Outside, merguards continued firing at a group Sea Dragons rushing by.
Billy quickly finishes loading the weapon and started firing as nearby Red's craft was nearly ready.
"Go, go, go!" A merman yelled.
Many rushed around as then an armored Killer Whale rushed in and drops a bomb as it hits the ground, and then bounced across the sand.
"Holy!" A merman exclaimed jumping out of the bomb's way.
Billy and a red octopus with him saw the bomb, and then quickly ducked. The bomb hits the side of a rock and drops in front of Billy as he stares at it.
"BILLY!" Anthony yelled.
"RUN!" Red yelled.
"It's gonna blow!" A merman said swimming off.
Billy stared at the bomb as it hasn't off.
"It's a dud." Billy said.
The nearby mermen quickly flee.
"It's a dud!" Billy yelled out.
A small gun hammer on the bomb then pulls back.
Then suddenly a massive explosion rips through the water and grows as mermen quickly ducked and the explosion takes out a hanger.
Danny soon saw the explosion and quickly ducks.
"GET DOWN!" Ariel yelled.
The explosion grew violently as it takes out a craft.
Rafe and Melody quickly ducked as the explosion's shockwave struck the wall.
"Come on, get down!" A merman yelled swimming off.
The dust soon begins to clear as Melody coughed as Rafe rushed over.
"DANNY! DANNY, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT!?" Danny yelled rushing over to them.
"I'M ALL RIGHT!" Danny yelled.
"Come on, let's go!" Rafe yelled helping Danny up. "Come on, let's go!"
"Gooz, come on, man!" Danny yelled.
"Mom, come on!" Melody yelled.
They quickly rushed off.
At Ocean Harbor, the aerial attack continues as a Banshee drops a water weapon as it hits the water.
Dozens of sailors in the water yell as the weapon soared by, and a damaged ship started tilting on it's portside as many sailors on it's deck struggled as they held on as the attack continued.
And then an explosion struck it's side.
Inside, sailors held on water started leaking through.
Then water gushed through as a sailor was knocked off his feet.
On the deck, many sailors try to stay on their feet as some fired at the Banshees.
"We're sinking! A sailor yelled. "We're sinking!"
Some sailors continued firing rifles as Banshees soared overhead of them.
Many of the sailors rushed across the deck to the bow as the ship continues tilting as many held on.
In the lower decks, many sailors rushed out of the room trying to escape before getting trapped themselves.
"Stay together!" An officer yelled.
They hurried as the water continues pouring in.
The ship tilts more as many sailors struggle to hold on.
And many struggled to climb to the other side as some screamed as they fell into the water.
The ship continues tilting more as many struggled to hold to the side railing or on the sail mast.
"I can't swim!" A sailor cried holding to the side railing.
"Just hang on!" Another sailor said.
The ship continues rolling on it's side more as many panicked.
Back in Atlantica, a merman named Joe and a few guards approached a down Sea Dragon aiming weapons at it.
But they soon saw it was already dead.
Then an explosion triggered behind him.
"Let's move it now!" A merman yelled.
"Joe! Go! Go!" Danny yelled as they hurried to the chariot.
"Ariel!" Attina's voice yelled.
"Attina, over here!" Ariel yelled.
Attina, Alana, Adella, Aquata, Arista and Andrina rushed over to them.
"Come on! We're gettin' outta here!" Danny yelled.
Joe turns to them.
"Get in the chariot!" Danny yelled.
They quickly climbed into the chariot along with Red, Anthony and Gooz.
"Get in! Get in!" Rafe yelled. "Come on, let's go! Go! Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
"Come on!" Danny yelled as the dolphin quickly took off pulling the chariot.
"Where's this place we're goin'?" Ariel asked.
"We got a small hanger about 10 minutes away." Danny said. "Hasn't been hit yet."
"At least for now." Aquata said.
They hurried off as a group of 6 armored Great White Sharks were right behind them.
"Uh, Danny?" Melody nervously said.
"We got sharks on our six!" Joe yelled.
"Left, left!" Andrina yelled. "Go, left!"
Danny looked back and 2 of the sharks swam by over them.
"DUCK!" Rafe yelled.
They then ducked as a armored Great White fired laser shots at them as they narrowly missed them and the edge of the chariot shell.
The sharks soon swam off as they lifted their heads, and saw the puncture holes where their heads could have been.
"Yikes." Arista cried.
Meanwhile, the aerial attack of Banshees continues on Ocean Harbor as they fired at the ships.
A Banshee released a water weapon as it hits the water, and it soars through the water under a crowd of sailors at the surface.
The sinking ship continues rolling on it's portside as many sailors struggled to hold on.
"Help us!" A sailor yelled.
Then an explosion hits near the deck of the ship, and it continues rolling as some sailors managed to climb over and got on the starboard side of the ship and helped others over. And below, some fell into the water as they started to swim away from the sinking ship.
Inside the ship's hull, a number of sailors are trapped in a room as water pours in.
"We're trapped." A sailor said.
Many hurried to get above the water.
"Try it! Try the door!" A man yelled.
They hurried to get the door free as it was stuck.
Sailors in the water continued swimming away from the ship as it tilts more on it's side, and Banshee flew overhead firing at them.
Many sailors held onto the sail railing, and soon it rolled more as it's deck is nearing the water.
"Oh, my God!" A sailor cried. "I'm going under!"
Many sailors quickly swam away from the sinking ship.
"It's sucking me back!" A sailor yelled.
"The current's too strong!" Another sailor yelled.
The Banshees flew over the water firing at the sailors in the water, and many dove under trying to seek shelter among the rocks as the laser shots hit the water.
The Banshees continued their assault.
"They're shootin' at us!" A sailor yelled.
Many ducked underwater as one under was shot and let out a muffled scream.
In the ship, a young sailor quickly climbs to a higher spot from the water.
"I don't wanna die!" He cried. "I don't wanna die! I don't wanna die!"
A sailor took a deep breath and went under as he tries to free the door.
Outside of the ship, many sailors screamed as they climbed onto the ship's underside.
Back inside, the young sailor panicked as the water kept rising.
"This is it." The sailor said.
"Get us out of here!" Another sailor yelled.
The sailor then gasped taking a deep breath and went under.
Laser shots fired as sailors on the ship's underside shout and scream as some were struck.
At the hospital, everyone was helping and tending those who got injured.
"Barbara, fill every syringe you can find with morphine!" Evelyn said.
She hurried out into the hall as more injured people came in.
"Evelyn, we're losing room in the hall!" Eric said.
"Fill up the kitchen!" Evelyn yelled. "Full up the kit- Are you listening to me?! Fill up the kitchen!"
The kitchen was soon cleared out making room for the wounded people.
From his view, Slattern watches the attack.
"Scunner, have the second wave ready." Slattern ordered.
"Yes, sir." Scunner replied.
Nearby, a figure sneaks by as Slattern hasn't noticed it.
"I need more ammo!" Earl yelled. "I need more ammo, ladies! I need more ammo!"
Danny's chariot soon arrived.
"Earl!" Danny called out. "We good to go?!"
"Yeah. Mostly, but-" Earl said.
"Get down, get down!" A merman yelled.
"Shoot! Get over!" Rafe yelled as they hurried into the hanger.
"Jeez! Jeez!" Danny yelled.
Earl then grabs a spear and then fires at the passing armored Great Whites and Sea Dragons.
"Come on, you guys!" A merman yelled.
"Earl, get in here!" Danny yelled.
Earl kept firing as the last of them pass by.
"Hey, Sergeant!" Rafe said. "They come back around, we gonna need more than a laser spear! You got any other weapons and ammo we can lay us some coverfire?"
"Yeah, inside that ammo locker!" Earl said.
"Come on!" A merman yelled.
"Let's go. Move it!" Earl said.
The quickly rushed over to the locker, and the lock was broken off as they hurried and grabbed what they could.
"You said the craft are mostly ready, but... but what?" Danny asked.
"Well, she's down, she's broke, she's heck." Earl gestured to 3 craft in the hanger. "I got 4 left." He pointed to some craft outside. "One's good to go. 2 need ammo, one needs time to start."
"Fall out and load up in the bunker!" Rafe said.
Soon they rushed towards a bunker.
"Let's go! Get down!" A merman yelled.
"Get ready to roll this thing!" Another merman said.
They quickly got to the bunker.
"All right." Danny said. "Anthony, Red, you 2 are gonna stay here and man the 50-sea. Gooz, you get up to the next bunker and lay down some cover fire, all right?"
Gooz finished loaded a weapon. "Sharks."
3 armored Great White Sharks were seen along with an armored Great Hammerhead.
"Should we fire?" Gooz asked.
"Stay down." Rafe said stopping him. "Stay down. No, dagnabbit. Hold your fire. Stay still. Nobody fire."
"Oh, gosh, oh, gosh, oh, gosh." Red cried.
"Quiet." Attina hissed.
The armored sharks continued towards them as they looked they haven't noticed them.
"They don't know we're here." Rafe said.
"Are you sure?" Adella asked.
"Looks like they haven't noticed us." Ariel said.
"Stay down." Rafe said.
"Fire?" Gooz asked.
"No, no, no, dagnabbit." Rafe said. "They don't know we're here. Stay down, stay still. Don't fire."
They watched as the sharks swam by along with some Plesiosaurs and Mosasaurs.
"Oh, gosh." Red softly said.
Hiding under a shell, Sebastian peeks out after recently arriving.
They soon watch as the last of them leave.
"I don't see any ordnance." Earl said. "I think they're going home."
"No. They'll be back." Rafe said. "We still got craft on the ground."
"Sebastian, what are you doing here?" Ariel asked.
"Your father is having the city evacuated." Sebastian explained. "What's happening here is also on the land."
"I hope Dad's okay." Melody said concern for her father.
"Don't worry, I'm sure Eric's fine." Ariel reassured though also worried. "Sebastian, get to the shore while you still can."
"Okay." Sebastian said and quickly swims off with a communicating shell.
"All right. You pilots, listen up." Rafe said. "Get all the speed you can coming up the runaway, don't get on the stick till you get to the very end. When you get in the air, stay low building the towers. You see any attacker on your tail, try to wipe him off, don't freeze."
Earl then noticed a second wave of armored sharks, Sea Dragons and marine reptiles above them.
"All right?" Rafe said. "Just keep moving. We're gonna try to break 'em up and separate 'em. We can take 'em out one by one. Aktiraks can't outrun everything, so don't try. We're just gonna have to outfly 'em."
"We got high-level swimmers!" Earl said. "They're gonna bust this hanger wide open!"
They then saw the fleet.
"Grab the 50s! Let's move!" Earl said.
"Go, go, go!" Attina yelled.
They quickly swam off yelling.
"Move! Move!" Rafe yelled.
"Go, go, go!" A merman yelled.
2 Great Whites begin to close in.
"Sharks!" Rafe yelled.
He and Danny started firing as they hurried.
"Take cover! Take cover!" Rafe yelled.
The 2 sharks and a Mosasaur begin to close in.
The group kept swimming as the armored creatures closed in.
"Take cover!" Rafe yelled. "Take cover!"
The 2 sharks and Mosasaur begin to close in, and then fired laser shots towards them hitting as many dropped to the sand.
"Get down! Get down!" Earl yelled.
"Let's go! In the box!" Anthony yelled as they hid behind the bunker.
Many hurried as some were hit by the laser shots as they continued hitting the sand as Danny hits the sand and fires at the bypassing sharks and Mosasaur.
Rafe soon saw him.
"Danny!" Rafe yelled rushing back to him.
The shots continued hitting the sand as Melody ducked covering her head. They soon ended as Danny hurried over to a down merman.
"Come on!" Danny yelled. "Come on, buddy!"
"Melody!" Ariel said rushing over to her.
"Leave him, he's dead!" Rafe said rushing to Danny. "He's dead!"
A bomb then drops into the hanger, and then explodes as the shockwave then knocks them to the sand. Everyone ducked as the sand cloud lifts as Rafe coughed.
"All right, they're kicking our tail." Earl said. "Get to the Aktiraks! Let's go."
"Go, go, go!" A merman said.
They hurried to the remaining Aktiraks as they shouted.
"Danny, hurry!" Rafe yelled getting up.
"Red, Anthony, let's go!" Danny yelled.
"Go, go!" Ariel said as she and Melody followed them.
They hurried to the remaining Aktiraks to get them ready.
"Hey! Come on, help me!" Gooz said. "Darn it! Grab these belts!"
Armored sharks and a Pliosaurus begin to circle round.
"Let's go! Come on!" Danny yelled.
The armored sea creatures swam overhead as Gooz fired a weapon at them as they parted ways.
Rafe quickly climbs into an Aktirak.
"Knock 'em dead." Red said as Rafe placed a headset on.
Danny quickly climbs into another Aktirak.
"Quick. Get in." Anthony said and hands him the headset. "Here, put this on."
3 Great Hammerheads begin to circle round towards them.
"They're coming around." A merman yelled.
"Bring 'em out! Let's go!" Another yelled.
One hammerhead fires laser shots as they shoot through the hanger and took out the Aktirak. And Danny and Anthony saw it.
"Red, get out of here, dagnabbit!" Rafe said. "All right, go, go!"
His Aktirak soon starts up.
"Come on, come on, let's go." Joe said in an Aktirak almost ready.
"Joe, get out of the way!" Rafe yelled.
"Joe, move while you still can!" Alana yelled.
"I'm rollin'! I'm rollin'!" Joe yelled.
His Aktirak begins to head off.
"Oh, gosh. Sharks!" Gooz yelled.
The 3 Great Hammerheads begin to circle round coming back.
"Come on, help me!" Gooz yelled. "Dang it!"
Earl soon saw the sharks and grabs a communicating shell.
"Hey, Joe." Earl said warning him. "Joe, you got 3 hammerheads right behind you. You got 3 hammerheads on your six."
Joe looked back and saw the sharks beginning to close in.
Gooz and another merman quickly moved the weapon as Danny saw Joe was in trouble. And the 3 hammerheads were closing in on Joe.
The sharks begin to lock onto their target.
"TURN! TURN!" Earl yelled.
Joe's Aktirak begins to pick up more speed as the hammerheads start shooting at him.
"Oh, gosh!" Joe cried.
Soon the Aktirak was being shot apart as Joe screamed, and then a blue explosion broke the Aktirak completely apart and hits the seafloor as the hammerheads swam by.
"Oh, shoot." Gooz said.
"What are you doing?" Anthony said. "Get going! Get moving!"
"Danny, start that thing up and get in the air, now." Rafe said. "I'm not much good without a wingman. I need you!"
"I got you!" Danny said.
Soon, Danny's Aktirak starts up.
"LET'S DO IT!" Danny yelled.
He soon heads off, and Rafe's Aktirak heads off as well.
Then a passing Liopleurodon swam by firing laser shots as then a hanger exploded as everyone fled. Startled by the explosion, Melody accidently lost balance and fell into an Aktirak as her hand accidentally lands on the pad and it suddenly shined blue.
"Huh?" Melody frowned.
Suddenly, the Aktirak took off with Melody yelling.
"Melody!" Ariel yelled.
She soon saw another Aktirak and had a terrible idea that was reckless and crazy even for her. She then climbed in it, and got it started and rushed after her.
"It's real tight, Rafe." Danny said. "It's real tight."
Rafe and Danny hurried over the seafloor as Earl and everyone else took cover.
An armored Great White Shark swam through a cloud of disturbed sand and soon sighted the 2 Aktiraks picking up speed.
"Hey, Rafe, I'm not sure we have enough runway!" Danny said.
"Get your speed before you leave the sand!" Rafe said.
"Don't freeze." Danny said. "Don't freeze."
The 2 Aktiraks gain speed as they started pulling up as they near some structures.
"I don't think I'm gonna make it above it!" Danny said.
"Come on! Come on!" Rafe gritted his teeth.
They pulled up hard as they flew over the structure as some merguards fired as the sharks as they fired back.
"We did it! I'm up!" Rafe said.
Rafe and Danny's Aktirak soared through the water as Ariel and Melody's suddenly appeared as they didn't had time to head back.
They soon erupted out of the water, and soon they got some unwanted company as a gang of Banshees were behind them.
"We got bogeys behind us, Rafe!" Danny yelled.
The Banshees chased after them as one of the screeched.
"How many d'you see back there?" Rafe asked.
The Banshees started firing at them as Rafe ducked.
"We got 5 on our six!" Danny yelled.
The Banshees chased them over the ocean as they flew towards Eric's kingdom.
"Take it down to the deck, Danny. Now!" Rafe yelled.
They then dove down as villagers fled yelling as the Banshees fired at them and a wagon was taken out. And Sebastian finally made it to the beach as he soon spotted Eric who went back to the castle.
"We gotta split 'em up, Danny." Rafe said.
They flew over the village with Banshees behind them.
"You take left, I'll take right." Rafe said.
They quickly peel off from each other, and bypass a tower as Ariel went with Rafe and Melody with Danny as the Banshees split up chasing after them.
"I don't know who's listening, but someone needs to get some guns in that doggone tower, up there!" Rafe yelled.
Sebastian soon told Eric what was happening as he and a group of 5 guards gathered some guns and other guns.
"Go, go!" Eric yelled.
In the air, Rafe flew his Aktirak as Ariel flew close him with the pursuing Banshees right behind them.
"Danny, I got 3 on my six." Rafe said.
The 3 Banshees chased after them as one closes in on them, and started firing laser shots at them.
They then flew over by the beach as laser shots hit the water, and then a trio of guards fired rifles at one of the Banshees as it was struck and crashed into a tree knocking it down.
"Whoo!" Rafe cheered.
The 2 Aktiraks flew through the air with the 2 remaining Banshees behind them.
Meanwhile, a horse pulling a wagon with Eric and the guards soon came to a stop near the tower.
"Stop! Stop it! Let's go!" The captain guard yelled. "Let's go! Let's go! Move it! Move it, Rick!"
They hurried to the tower as other guards continued firing.
Meanwhile, Danny flew through a cloud of drifting smoke with Melody close behind him.
"I still got 2 behind me, Rafe." Danny said.
The 2 Banshees soon flew out of the smoke.
Melody looked back seeing them as she was still struggling trying to keep the Aktirak steady.
They soon flew by some villagers as they made a sharp turn as the Banshees fired at them.
Meanwhile, Rafe and Ariel were still being chased as the Banshees fired laser shots as tried to avoid getting shot.
"Yaah!" Rafe yelled.
Their Aktiraks flew through the air as they were barely avoiding the shots.
"Son of a gun!" Rafe yelled.
They then flew between the gap of the main castle and a tower.
"Whoa!" Rafe yelled.
They then flew around the castle with a Banshee behind them.
"Sebastian, do you hear me?!" Rafe yelled. "Dagnabbit, get some guns in that tower!"
"We're getting there, mon!" Sebastian said on Eric's shoulder as they hurried up the tower.
Meanwhile, Danny and Melody were being chased as the Banshees fired laser shots.
They then flew lower near the ground as people fled as the aerial chase continued.
"Rafe, they're all over me!" Danny yelled. "I can't get them off me!"
The pursuing Banshee fires at them.
Many people on the ground ran as the air chase continued.
"Danny, I still got 3 on my tail!" Rafe said.
Behind him and Ariel, the remaining Banshees were chasing them still.
"Keep jinking it!" Rafe said. "Don't let them get a handle on you!"
"I can't shake 'em, Rafe!" Danny cried.
The Banshee screeched as it was right behind him and Melody.
"Dang it." Rafe said and looked back.
The 2 Banshees growled.
"Danny, let's play some chicken with these fly suckers!" Rafe said.
"All right, I'm with you." Danny said.
They flew through the air as a Banshee then fires laser shots at them.
"Jeez!" Danny exclaimed of how close they were.
The Banshee kept firing as then one laser shot grazed Melody's left arm as she cried in pain.
Rafe and Ariel's Aktirak flew heading towards them.
The Banshee kept firing at Danny and Melody.
"I'm coming right at you, Rafe!" Danny yelled.
"I don't know if I'll make it!" Melody cried.
"Don't brake till I tell you. Hold on." Rafe said.
The Banshee kept chasing Danny and Melody as they closed in on each other.
"Not yet! Not yet!" Rafe yelled.
They flew closer towards each other.
"Come on! Come on!" Danny said all ready.
"Let's get 'em." Melody said now ready.
The Banshee then screeched out.
"Go left! NOW!" Rafe yelled.
They then sharply turned left bypassing each other, and the Banshees saw each other as 4 crashed into each other as the collision at that speed has killed them.
"Whoo! We got 'em!" Rafe cheered.
"Ha, ha, ha!" Danny cheered.
"Whoo-hoo!" Melody cheered.
"Set up over there!" The captain guard yelled.
They quickly got ready and loaded their rifles and other guns.
"Come on, load it!" George said.
"OK, we're on top of the tower, mon." Sebastian said.
1 remaining Banshee chased after Rafe and Ariel through the air.
"Sebastian, I got one on my tail." Rafe said. "I'll bring him right by you."
"He's comin' around!" The captain guard yelled. "He's comin' around! Let's get this fly sucker!"
They then got ready.
Rafe and Ariel flew towards the tower leading Banshee towards it.
"Hold your fire, hold your fire." The captain guard said. "Here he comes."
They flew towards the tower as a guard on the ground fired at the Banshee.
"You better be cocked and locked when I come by there!" Rafe said.
The guards got ready and watched as the 2 Aktiraks head toward them with Banshee behind them as Rafe flipped his sideways.
"Hold your fire!" The captain guard said.
The 2 Aktiraks near the tower, and soon flew by them.
"FIRE!" He yelled firing his shotgun.
The other guards then fired at the Banshee as it flew by them.
It took multiple hits and soon falls and hits the beach.
"Whoo! Good shootin', boys!" Rafe cheered.
"That will teach him to mess with us!" Sebastian said.
"Now let's head over to battleship row!" Rafe said.
"I'm with you!" Danny said.
Smoke from a burning ship billows out as Rafe flew through the smoke and Danny soon flew out behind him.
"Let's go do some business." Rafe said.
They begin to approach 3 Banshees.
"I'm going after 'em." Danny said.
They begin to close in on the Banshees and they started firing laser shots at the Banshees as they were trying to avoid getting shot. And soon one was struck heavily on the wing and crashed against a ship.
"Rafe! I got him!" Danny yelled.
In the water, many sailors cheered out.
3 Banshees begin to retreat into the air.
"They're pulling out into the clouds, Danny." Rafe said. "We ain't gonna let these sons of witches get home!"
Rafe flew through the clouds and soon chased after a Banshee.
"How do you like it when someone shooting back at you?" Rafe glared at it.
The Banshee flew through the air with Rafe's Aktirak right behind it as it soon fires at it.
"Oh, I'm on your tail now!" Rafe glared.
He kept firing as the Banshee was then struck on the wing and fell.
"Yeah! I got one!" Rafe cheered.
Meanwhile, Danny closes in on a second Banshee.
"Come on!" Danny glared at it.
The Aktirak closes in and Danny fires laser shots trying to hit it as the Banshee flew trying to avoid them.
The Banshee flew through the air with Danny right behind it as it was turning into a real dogfight.
"Gosh, come on!" Danny yelled.
Danny continued firing at the Banshee tries to avoid getting hit.
"Come on, stay in there!" Danny said. "Stay in there!"
He then fires more and soon the Banshee was struck on the wing.
"Whoa!" Danny cheered.
Elsewhere in the sky, Rafe locks onto a third Banshee.
"I got you, son of a witch!" Rafe yelled.
The laser shots soon struck the Banshee and it fell through the air.
In Atlantica, Triton was helping the last of the merpeople evacuating.
"Sire, that's nearly everyone!" A guard reported.
"Any sign of my daughters?" Triton asked.
"They're safe in the base on the other side." He said.
"Find a guard, and get them." Triton ordered.
"Yes, Sire." He said and swam off.
Triton then swims off making sure no one was missed.
Triton soon reached the front entrance of Atlantica, and it looks every citizen is gone.
"Hello, Triton." A voice said.
Triton froze and looked as Slattern stood by the entrance with his double-edged sword.
"Do you know who I am?" Slattern questioned.
"Should I?" Triton asked gripping his trident.
"I suggest you think really hard." Slattern advised. "Take a closer look."
Triton stared at him, and then a flashback appeared in his mind when he was a boy as he soon recognized him after seeing him in the distance.
"You were there." Triton said.
"I was." Slattern said. "Allow me to finally properly introduce myself. I am Slattern. King of the Monsters."
Triton then aimed his trident at him as if what he said was a lie.
"Where is he?" Triton demanded.
"Who?" Slattern frowned pretending not to know. "Oh, yes. I remember. That cowardly false king is, in simply words, retired and decommissioned."
"No." Triton said realizing what he has done.
"Oh, yes." Slattern said. "And now, all that's left in my way is you."
"You'll have to get pass me." Triton glared at him.
"I plan to." Slattern said.
The 2 kings stood their ground as Slattern growled, and then he twirled his 3 tails around each other and then slam them hard against the seabed.
Triton gripped his trident as it glowed.
Slattern then lifts his sword up high and then slams it hard on the sand and stomps the seafloor hard with his fists.
They both glared at each other as then Slattern roars out, and then grabs his sword and charges towards Triton. He lunges forward as Triton moves out of the way, and Slattern's blade hits the side of a wall.
Slattern turns to Triton and blocks a trident blast knocking him back. The trident glowed and flashed but Slattern deflects the attack and then swatted his right hand at Triton knocking him back.
Slattern growled as he stood up and then roared as he pulls his sword out from the wall.
Triton soon recovered as his trident flashed ready to fire, but Slattern quickly pushed him back. But Triton soon swung his trident near his face as Slattern backs away. And then the trident flashed brightly and Triton aims it as it then fires.
Slattern saw this and quickly brought his sword out as the blast hits the blade as Slattern held onto it as he was pushed back. Slattern was pushed back more as the blast ceased and he noticed the blade was glowing.
A trident blast then struck him in the face as Triton attacked, but Slattern charged and knocks Triton back and knocks him to the seabed. Triton swung his trident as it then slashed his left wrist as he growled in pain.
Slattern knocks Triton back with a head-swing, and then grabs the trident and throws it away as it hits the sand.
Triton soon recovered and swims off as Slattern chased after him.
Then Slattern quickly turned and struck a tail at Triton knocking him back and hits against a rock.
Slattern then let out a growl-like laugh as if he was enjoying this.
Triton soon recovered and swam off as Slattern roars out as it can heard throughout the entire city.
Triton soon reclaims his trident as well as Slattern grabbing his blade as Triton fired a blast as Slattern dodged it. And then Slatterns lunges high as Triton fires another blast as it hits the blade of Slattern's sword.
Slattern then held it high roaring out loudly as he nears Triton, and then strikes down as the blade hits the trident. The impact caused an explosion as it knocks both of them away from each other.
Triton soon recovered as he got up.
Nearby, the trident rested on the seafloor as the glow fades from it.
Outside Atlantica, Ariel and Melody returned the Aktiraks back to the hanger. And were heading back to meet with the others.
"That has got to be the craziest thing I ever did in my life." Ariel said.
"I'm surprised we were even able to fly those things." Melody said.
As they swim, Ariel then noticed the graze wound on Melody's arm.
"Melody, did you get hurt?" Ariel asked.
"I, uh... I-It's just a scratch." Melody nervously said and hid the would with her hand.
"Melody, let me see it." Ariel said with a gentle but firm tone.
Melody soon gave out and allowed her mother to examine it.
"Doesn't look too bad." Ariel said.
She then grabbed a piece of seaweed and gently wrapped it around Melody's arm as she winced and hissed a bit in pain.
Nearby, a big piece of coral was grabbed and lifted up.
"There, that should do it till it can be properly treated." Ariel said.
"I wouldn't be sure of that." A well too-familiar voice suddenly said.
Ariel and Melody quickly turned and then a big coral piece suddenly struck Ariel on the head and hits the ground.
"Mom!" Melody cried.
She then saw the attacker and thought she would have never had to see her again.
"Morgana?!" Melody fearfully exclaimed.
"Miss me, sweetheart?!" Morgana cackled evilly.
She then wrapped a tentacle around Melody before she had the chance to swim away.
"Help-"! Melody cried as a tentacle covered her mouth.
"Oh, no one's coming to help you this time." Morgana smugly said.
Melody looked over to her mother as she laid unconsciously on the seabed. And then she panicked as a tentacle wrapped around her neck as Morgana was willing to kill her herself.
"Get your suckers off her!" A voice yelled.
"Huh?" Morgana looked back.
A spear suddenly whacked Morgana in the face knocking her back as her tentacles released Melody as she coughed. Melody then saw it was Aquata holding a spear who saved her, and Attina and Alana appeared.
"Are you okay?!" Attina asked helping her niece up.
"I-I think so." Melody said.
Attina held Melody behind her protectively as Aquata nears Morgana on the sand.
"She's out cold." Aquata said.
Alana then rushed over to Ariel as she started to wake up.
"You okay?" Alana asked.
"My head." Ariel groaned as Alana helped up.
Morgana then stirred and woke up as they turn her, and Morgana soon glared at them.
"Why you little..." Morgana growled.
Aquata then batted the spear swiftly hitting the witch in the head with the flat side of the spear head. And Morgana drops to the sand completely out cold.
"Nice swing." Ariel said almost impressed.
"I didn't think I had it in me." Aquata said.
"Come on, let's get out of here before she wakes up." Attina said.
They quickly swam off.
In Atlantica, Slattern soon recovered and got up shaking any sand off him and snorted.
He then started searching for Triton.
Nearby, Triton was hiding by the side of a wall watching Slattern coming closer.
As Slattern kept looking, Triton suddenly tossed a rock as it hits the wall near him. Slattern turns to it, and then Triton lunges as Slattern looked back as Triton grapples around his neck as Slattern was knocked into the wall.
Slattern pulled himself off the wall and snapped his jaws trying to get at Triton as he then punched him.
Slattern then struggled as he hits against the side of walls and market stands trying to shake Triton off. But Triton kept a strong hold and then wrapped an arm around his throat in a chokehold as he roared. Then Slattern swiftly stood up and slams against a wall stunning Triton, and then he bites down on Triton's right wrist. The bracer stopped his teeth from piercing his wrist but it didn't stop the jaw strength as Triton yelled in pain.
Slattern then grabbed his arm and threw him off as Triton hits the seafloor, and Slattern approached and lifted his right front foot high roaring. Slattern stomps down as Triton quickly moves away, but Slattern lunges and bites down on Triton's left wrist as Triton punched him. But then Slattern quickly spun and then throws Triton as he then hits the side of a wall hard.
Triton groaned in pain as his left arm felt it was out of it's socket.
Then pounding footsteps was heard as Triton saw Slattern charging towards him and moves aside as Slatterns roars and hits the wall. Slattern soon pulls himself free, and then tail-whips Triton as he hits the sand. And then fueled by blood lust, Slattern got on all 4s and stalks after Triton roaring as he crawls back.
Slattern snapped his jaws trying to get at Triton, and then he bites down on his tail as Triton tries to shake him off. And then whacks a shell at Slattern's face as he lets go, but then Slattern lunges forward roaring with his right hand held up, and then struck him hard knocking his crown off. And then claws his chest, and then Slattern mauls and claws Triton's chest violently with full fury as Triton was helpless as he couldn't fight back.
And then Slattern pins Triton down with his left hand as Triton groaned, and then punched the slash on his wrist hard.
Slattern then roars out loudly in pain, and then he lifts his hand up high and then stomps down hard against Triton's chest. And then firmly pressed more of his weight under as Triton struggled under his grip. Triton tries to pull it off him and then stares at Slattern.
Slattern then lowered his head down growling and narrowed his eyes and snorted.
Triton glared at the monster trying not to show he was afraid.
Then Slattern roars out loudly at Triton at his face at the top of his lungs. Triton cringed as he tried not to show fear, and then he yells out loudly as the 2 were then at a roar showdown. Slattern was the first to end it as Triton followed and Slattern lifts his head up and breathes heavily staring down at him and snorted.
Triton grunted under his weight, and then Slattern suddenly lifted his hand off him as Triton catches his breath.
Slattern snorted and then turns away and heads off.
Triton then weakly started getting up as Ariel, Melody, Attina, Aquata and Alana soon appeared.
"Dad!" Attina yelled and they hurried over to him.
"Are you okay?" Alana asked.
"I'm... fine." Triton said weakly in pain.
And then suddenly a large wave of pain struck him as he suddenly drops to the seafloor completely unconscious.
"Daddy!" Ariel cried rushing to her father's side.
"Grandfather!" Melody cried.
"Dad, can you hear me?!" Attina cried.
"Alana, Aquata, get help!" Ariel said.
Alana and Aquata quickly swam off to find help.
"Daddy, Daddy, please!" Ariel cried. "Don't leave us."
On land, Sebastian was caught in a fleeing crowd of villagers as Zilla attacked.
Sebastian stared at him as Zilla roars out loudly, and then he saw Zilla lifting his right foot up as it looked directly above him.
Sebastian panicked and then screams as the foot came crashing down.
Fortunately, Sebastian was barely missed as he was in between the middle and left toe of the foot as it lifts up. Sebastian stood there all shaken as Zilla's tail flew over him, and Sebastian turns and watches Zilla heading off and roars out.
Sebastian stood there as he soon realized he was still alive. And then he started chuckling, and then soon laughed.
In the ocean outside Atlantica, Slattern then roars out loudly as it echoed.
Some distance away, the fleet of armored sharks and marine reptiles ceased their attacks and swam off.
On land, Ghidorah heard Slattern's call as well and lands on top of the castle.
And then he lets out a loud wailing roar holding his wings out.
The Banshees soon responded, and ceased their attacks and flew off. And soon Ghidorah flew off as well along with Smaug.
Zilla roars out loudly and charges towards the ocean, and then jumps into the water as the land and aerial fleet withdraw started headed back.
At Atlantica's palace, Ariel, Melody were waiting along with Ariel's other sisters trying to wait patiently as Triton was being tending.
But yet they couldn't stop fearing the worse.
Soon, a medic came in as they turn to him.
"How is he?" Ariel asked hoping her father was okay.
"Well, he's still unconscious." The medic informed. "His left arm pulled out of the socket, and claw marks on his chest. But he was brought here just in time. A few more minutes, and chances would've been much smaller. He's stable at the moment."
The news gave them some relief.
On land, with the carnage over, many at the hospital were rushing to help those who were injured.
At Ocean Harbor, clouds of smoke billowed from burning ships as some in lifeboats appeared to help. And many cling onto ropes or anchor chains in the water as Dorie was in a lifeboat helping with the rescue teams.
Many sailors moan and cry as some dropped in the water.
2 lifeboats moved over the water as sailors in them watched completely remorsefully as many of the dead sailors were well known to them.
Soon, 2 other rowboats appeared as one carried Admiral James.
On the deck of one of the damaged ships, a sailor reached out to the Jack Russell Terrier that has survived. The dog swam over to him, and the sailors lifts him out of the water.
On the rowboat, James watched in horror of the attack's aftermath as the damage was done within over an hour.
In Dorie's rowboat, Dorie saw what was left of the Apollo ship, and he spears a harpoon in the water pulling out a flag. And he held it tightly and cried as he knew a number of sailors who worked on that ship.
Sometime later, Ariel, Melody, along with Attina, Alana, Aquata, Arista, Adella and Andrina, and Flounder arrived to the shoreline and saw the damaged done to the kingdom.
"Oh, no." Ariel said horrified.
They could even hear the distant screams and moans from injured people as it fills the air.
"Ariel!" Eric's voice yelled.
They soon saw Eric rushing towards them, and had some blood stains on him.
"Eric!" Ariel cried.
They soon hugged each other in relief.
"Oh, thank goodness." Eric said as Melody joins in.
Then footsteps were heard rushing as they turned to a guard.
"We've got men trapped everywhere in the harbor." The guard said. "We need help from anybody who can move."
The damaged ship that rolled upside down made a grinding rumble as many sailors were on the underside of the ship trying to pinpoint any sailors trapped inside. And some being helped out.
Inside, many shouted as they were trapped in a room with water as they banged and hit the wall trying to someone's attention from outside.
"Get us out of here!" A sailor yelled.
They continued banging and shouting.
Outside, a sailor manages to pinpoint them.
"There's somebody in here!" He yelled. "Get somebody down here!"
Inside, parts of the wooden wall dented as a swordtip pierce through.
"They're cutting through!" A sailor yelled.
They all then cheered.
Soon, a large enough hole was made as Eric, Ariel and Melody helped out as well as Attina and the rest of her sisters.
"I hear somebody!" A sailor yelled. "Get some guys up here!"
"Pull!" A group of sailors yelled pulling a rope.
At another damaged ship on it's side, 2 guards were rushing to open up an opening as some sailors were trapped inside.
"Get us outta here!" A sailor cried muffled from inside.
"The room's filling up with water!" Another cried.
"Get an airline in here!" A guard yelled.
A sailor inside the flooding room screams out for help.
The 2 guards hurried to open the hole more as Eric, Ariel and Melody appeared hoping to help.
"We need the air hose!" A guard yelled.
"What can we do?" Ariel asked.
They continued cutting through the hole as a few hands stick out in desperation as water started pouring out. And the sailors underneath let out muffled cries.
"It won't cut any faster!" A guard yelled.
The gurgling cries from the trapped sailors continued as Ariel and Melody grabbed a hand as well as Eric as they held onto them.
"Cut him out!" Eric yelled.
"Aah!" A guard yelled.
The continued pounding on the wood as the hands soon limped and fingers flexed one last time and soon the life in them left from the drowned sailors inside. And Ariel and Melody soon pulled away.
And the 3 hands rested out of the hole as water pours out.
Days later, the aftermath fell as bodies from both Atlantica and Eric's kingdom were gathered. And a total of nearly 2,000 lives were lost, over half from Atlantica as severe damage was caused on both kingdoms.
And half of the victims of Eric's kingdom were from Ocean Harbor alone.
At the moment, Eric was at a meeting.
"Is it true... men are still trapped alive inside the Apollo?" Eric asked.
"We can hear tapping from inside the hull." A guard sadly informed. "We're doing everything we can to get to them, but they 40 feet below water."
Outside the room, Melody with a proper bandage in her arm listened and remained sadly silent and heads off and remembered the time when she was trapped in an ice cave close to drowning like how the sailors had suffered.
Outside, Melody sat alone on last step of the staircase leading to the sea.
She remained sadly silent and remorsefully as the waves rolled. And for once, she can't seem to bring herself to even placing her feet in the water. Not only did she witness her home and Atlantica being attacked, but Morgana's return, and that she held a drowning man's hand that she couldn't save.
The thought of it had Melody drop a tear.
"Melody?" A voice said.
Melody jumped a bit and saw Sebastian and soon calmed down a bit.
"Are you okay, child?" Sebastian asked.
"I... I don't know." Melody sniffled. "I just saw my home and Atlantica get attacked, Morgana is back and I was in her grasp, and I was holding a drowning man's hand trapped in a ship."
Sebastian felt bad her for, and crawled up to her shoulder.
"Oh, don't cry, child." Sebastian said clearing away a tear on her face. "It's gonna be okay."
"How?" Melody asked. "Grandfather is likely on his deathbed. And there's a monster army out there probably planning another attack. How will it be okay?"
Sebastian remained silent as he thinks for a moment.
"I really don't know, dear." Sebastian said. "But, we always pull through tough times."
"Yeah, which took 10 years for music to return to Atlantica, and 12 for Morgana to finally be defeated." Melody pointed out. "This may last years longer than that."
"Well, I know we won't know unless we try." Sebastian said.
"How would you know?" Melody asked.
"Because... 2 headstrong girls I know made it through and fixed them." Sebastian said. "And I know they'll get us through it somehow."
Melody lightly smiled from that knowing who he was talking about.
"Thanks, Sebastian." Melody said. "I just hope you're with this one."
"You and me, both." Sebastian said.
They stare out into the distant ocean.
Author's Note:
And here we have it.
The Disney equivalent of Pearl Harbor, and as some may guess, the Apollo a version of the Arizona. And a version of the warship Oklahoma as well.
If the armored Great Whites, Sea Dragons, Great Hammerhead and Mosasaur sound familiar, it is something I seen in 2018 film, Aquaman.
And the fight between Triton and Slattern, definitely something from Godzilla vs. Kong.
