Donkey Kong
"AAAAHHHHHHHHH!" Ash's screams reverberated through the sky as he hurtled towards the next stage of his adventure. With a bone-jarring impact, he crashed onto the platform of Kongo Jungle. "OOF! Ow..." Grunting, Ash shook off the impact of the landing and slowly rose to his feet.
As he surveyed his surroundings, the lush expanse of the jungle enveloped him. The humid air hung heavy around him, carrying the earthy scent of foliage. Towering trees loomed overhead as their verdant canopies cast intricate patterns of light and shadow on the forest floor. Above him, two slanted soft platforms swayed gently while two smaller platforms spun in a clockwise motion. Below the stage, a Barrel Cannon shifted back and forth.
"Where am I now?" Ash questioned, only to be jolted by the loud thud sounds emanating from ahead of him. His gaze snapped forward, widening in surprise as he witnessed the arrival of the next challenger on the battle stage.
Standing before him was a formidable figure resembling a gorilla with a burly physique that exuded raw strength. Donkey Kong's brown fur rippled with muscle, particularly pronounced in his impressive pecs, biceps, and triceps. His fur was styled distinctively, almost resembling a unique hairstyle, adding to his imposing presence. Despite his powerful appearance, there was a hint of cartoonish charm in his design. The gorilla's attire was minimalistic yet iconic—a single red necktie adorned with the unmistakable "DK" logo in yellow, serving as his only garment.
"Wait...aren't you...Donkey Kong?" Ash exclaimed.
Donkey Kong offered a smug smirk before swiftly pounding his chest and lunging forward without warning.
"Hey! What are you doing?!" Ash protested as he was abruptly hoisted off his feet and held in place over Donkey Kong's broad back.
Ignoring Ash's frantic protests, Donkey Kong remained focused on the edge of the stage with evil intent. Ash's panic surged as Donkey Kong approached the edge.
"What are you doing?! Let me go!" Ash struggled against Donkey Kong's iron grip, but it proved futile against the gorilla's immense strength. With grim determination, Donkey Kong reached the edge and leaped off, taking Ash with him.
"YYYOOOOOOU'RRRRREEEEEE CRRRRRAAAAZZZZZYYYY!" Ash's screams echoed into the abyss as they plummeted below the stage.
Poor Ash. He felt the wrath of Donkey Kong's "cheat" grappling hold. XD Next up is...Link!
