The Five Kings: First Step

Hopian 47.5 - My 99th Pals! The Sequel!

Last (break) chapter, the story went back a couple of months to when King Metallica just joined Adesia's crew. Like any pirates would they of course go on a treasure hunt, which leads them into a giant hole in the ocean which goes by the name of "Trench Demise". After paddling down the 90 degree currents straight into the hole and landing on the shallow waters which lay at the bottom of the hole, the ground suddenly starts to violently shake.

King Metallica's P.O.V.

"Rank to Exterminate... B!" I say in a serious tone, and for good reason as the entire earth beneath us starts to rumble with terrifying might!

"Prepare yourselves, anything could happen here!" My female curly haired pal commands as she digs her fancy golden claws which she equipped beforehand into her palms.

"Alright, this'll be fun! Sounds like it's some sort of giant monster, eh captain?!" My orange haired pal shouts with a goofy ol' grin as he tries to maintain his balance, with the pretty water beneath us starting to bubble like a bath and churn like we're inside a blender.

"Perha-" She's about to respond to my inexperienced pal, until suddenly out of the treacherous, mighty currents falling around us, two giant reptilian heads purely made of bones start to make their grand entrance and emerge from all sides! How strange! And plus, the things don't even have eyes for Hopian's sake, they should be blind!

But then... they keep on emerging! All of my pals continue to stare with gaping mouths as the "deceased" creatures heads are now hanging over us in the center of the trench like a cool open roof, extending their ginormous, bony pole like necks to do so.

"Wow! Now that's what I call a, B.O.N.E.R.! YAAAAAAASHASHASHA!" I let out a mighty belly laugh to try to cheer my scaredy cat pals up! But- my inexperienced pals still look terrified...

"E-Everyone, stay calm! Look back towards the currents around us, the beasts have supersized necks but human bodies!" My pal Adesia advises us, which causes me to look towards the flowing H2O, and loe and behold the tinsy winsy torsos- being exposed rib cages and the amateur hour bony legs of the two emerge from the depths which are connected to the necks!

"Holy crap, how do their bodies even hold those massive necks up?! I guess I was kinda right about a giant monster, but I sure didn't expect this!" Popshot exclaims, seeming more excited than nervous as a determined grin returns to his face as he stares up at the giant heads staring down at us.

"That's the spirit pal! Now then, it seems like most of you guys need a high dose of C.O.N.F.I.D.E.N.C.E., and as such I'll sit back while you all-" I'm about to say, but I'm rudely interrupted by the B.A.B.Y.I.S.H. screams of my hundreds of companions as they start to scuttle away from the center of the trench!

I then put my hands on my mighty hips and scold, "Hey! Now that is definitely not a kind thing to do to someone who's trying to help you, my inexperienced pals!" Then suddenly, I can hear the spooky sounds of bones rattling coming towards me, until one of the giant snake-like bone heads slam into the ground right in front me! But I'm too angry to be surprised now, so I could care less!

And then, the other sneaky creature has the sheer A.U.D.A.C.I.T.Y. to stretch its neck down and chomp down on my own glorious metallic self with its many rows of bony teeth!

"Why didn't you just dodge the attack you stupid bot?!" My insolent orange haired pal shouts out to me, as the  creature made of bone trying to eat me whole swings its giant neck straight upwards with me in tow! Although, it's not like it's got a throat in the first place, this thing is dumber than it looks, YASHASHASHA!

"Tch! I hate snakes, so Popshot quickly, you go and take out the body that's connected to the head holding him!" Adesia says with a bit less confidence than usual- but that's definitely a big no-no for a captain like her! It looks like I have much more to teach my loveable but unskilled pals than I thought!
