King Kong: The Faunus and the Beast

Chapter XXII

Vale was slowly growing chaotic.

Once Kong had gotten to the city, people who saw him ran for or called police stations to report what they'd seen. At first, the police station didn't believe them. But, when the calls and reports of a giant gorilla kept coming, they started to take these claims seriously.

Rumors were beginning to spread about some sort of giant Grimm attacking the city. But, after a while, it was realized that it wasn't a Grimm. It was a giant gorilla. People were afraid to stay indoors.

Stuart had gotten a call from his friend, who had told him about a giant ape attacking the city. He'd laughed it off, even when he tried to tell him he wasn't lying. Stuart told him how ridiculous this was, and he hung up.

Giant gorillas. He shook his head. He was trying to sleep. He didn't need a prank call from his friend. He lay down on his bed, and looked out the window. Then, he saw a massive, furry head pass by. He jumped, and pushed the window open. He peered outside, and saw Kong marching down the streets.

The giant ape approached a train track, which was raised up from the ground, stopping at his waist. Kong looked to his left, and he could see the headlights of an incoming train approaching. He roared, raised his fists, and bashed them against the tracks. They shattered, and sparks flew everywhere. Kong jumped at the sparks, but he continued breaking through the tracks, until he was ride beside the path the incoming train was on.

Kong reached out one hand, and the train crashed into it, halting on impact. Passengers inside screamed and fell to the ground after the sudden stop. Kong grabbed the first car, and tugged it close so quickly that it decoupled from the rest of the train. He lifted its wheels off the track, and tossed it into a nearby building.

Kong grabbed the next car, and pulled it close. This time, he grabbed the roof of the vehicle, and ripped it off. He peered inside, and saw millions of civilians fleeing for their lives. A woman fell to the ground. She was dressed in black and white, and she had long, black hair trailing down her head.

Kong reached down to her. He scooped her into his massive hand. She instantly screamed, and started kicking and screaming. Kong looked at her. He roared loudly, and tossed her aside. Her screaming grew louder, only to cut off abruptly.

Kong pushed the train off the tracks, and continued his rampage through the city.

The giant ape marched through the streets, which had grown silent now. Civilians were hiding in their homes, and Kong was calming at the silence.

A spotlight shined on him. Kong raised his arm, covering his eyes. He looked up and spotted something in the sky. It was an airship. Kong hid behind a building. He accidentally kicked a car. He looked down at it. He reached down, picked it up, and threw it at a wall. It exploded on impact. Kong jumped back.

He continued marching through the city, looking around at the ground. He paused when he saw a billboard. It was an advertisement for beauty products, with a picture of a woman dressed in black and white, with black hair. She almost looked like Blake, but she didn't have her amber eyes, or the cat ears on her head.

Kong scowled. He roared loudly, grabbed it, and pulled it from its place, knocking it to the ground. He growled, and continued marching.

The streets were empty, and Kong was growing quiet. The only sounds that could be heard was the thumping of his footsteps, and his slow breathing.

It was slowly starting to become peaceful . . .
