We start again from the ending of the last episode, where Ekrixinatosaurus blasted a hole into a Hollow Earth tunnel unintentionally when aiming to defeat a juvenile skullcrawler in training.
"Dude! A simple 'my bad' isn't gonna fix things!" Kong shouts, slightly frustrated.
"What are we supposed to do then? Fill in the hole again?" Ekrixinato replies.
"Well. Uh, you just beamed straight through 5,000 kilometers of Earth. Under a second no less. I suppose you can just annihilate whatever comes out of this hole."
"Sweet!
Wait, what do you mean by whatever comes out of this hole? There's nothing that lives inside the core of the Earth right?" Ekrixinato remarks.
"There is one that I remember..."
As Kong was about to explain, flocks of large armored bat-like creatures swarm out of the Hollow Earth tunnel, loudly screaming in apparent coordination.
Ekrixinatosaurus stumbles to the ground, roaring in pain. "What are those things?!" he asks, opening his eyes slightly despite the wind, observing the creatures' grotesque forms.
Kong tries to close his ears from the audible madness, shouting back, "A swarm from hell is what it is!"
He realizes something else tied to them, and warns Ekrixinatosaurus about the imminent danger. "HIDE!"
Kong jumps out of the way, hiding behind a cliff. He urges Ekrixinatosaurus to follow as well.
Ekrixinatosaurus accepts, trying to run into behind the cliff, but it appears he's late.
A violent echo shakes the rubble and earth, and the wind roars with sudden turbulence. Ekrixinatosaurus is blown away into a nearby rock, and looks anxiously at the tunnel as it continues its eery glow.
The bat-like creatures stop their vocalizations, flapping their wings high up in the air as clouds darken around them. The only noises come from the wind blowing through the leaves and rocks.
"EKRIXINATO! RUN!"
The abelisaur tries to get back on his feet, but his anxiety grows as he senses something rising up the tunnel.
And with a sudden burst of speed, a gigantic version of the bat-like creatures emerges, flying high up alongside what seems to be its underlings.
Ekrixinatosaurus runs into some cover, but the giant releases a powerful hypersonic scream, blowing him out into the open and causing him to experience a violent seizure.
"Ekrix! What's wrong?!" Kong roars, frightened.
"That.. thing..." Ekrixinatosaurus stutters, "It.. hurts... so much.."
"I see..." The gigantic bat growls in a raspy tone, "It would seem that we are your weakness.."
Kong looked up towards the creature. "Camazotz, you have nothing on this guy! What do you even want this time?"
"The colony merely seeks retribution, for our father's demise."
"You and Kong are related?" Ekrixinato joked.
"Do you know who you're related to, little one?" Camazotz replied, to silence from Ekrixinato. "Our father's mission of bringing our peace to the surface world was halted, and we only aim to finish what he started."
"Have you ever thought about why that's bad?" Kong asked, "It's not like I stopped your ancestor for no reason."
"It was for the good of our realm." Camazotz excused, preparing the swarm to attack.
"Okay, Ekrixinato, I think we need to kill this guy." Kong whispered to the abelisaur, who lay on the floor.
"You think?"
"Well,
I mean, yeah, just go blast 'em or something."
The bats proceed to all unleash their supersonic screams on the two, disturbing Kong, and fully paralyzing Ekrixinatosaurus before he has the chance of releasing his powers. Kong looks worryingly at Ekrixinato, and grabs him with his right hand, bringing both of them to safety under a mountain.
Camazotz and his swarm flies over, believing that they've got the two under their grasp. Kong pounces from below, grabbing and crushing some of the hellbats. Camazotz directly tackles the giant primate, giving some time for Ekrixinatosaurus to recuperate. Not wanting to let his golden powers fully heal, he subconsciously orders his swarm to scream, disorienting the abelisaur.
"I will say," Camazotz screeches, while clashing with Kong using his talons, "I sense your ally's strength, and he is impressive."
"So what? You're gonna say that it's still not enough or something?"
"No," Camazotz pins Kong against the edge of the mountain, "Just saying that, he does not belong in this world."
Ekrixinatosaurus opens his eyes, hearing those words. Enraged, he struggles to get up, but still tries to do so, harassed by the screaming of the hellbats trying to bring him down.
"That's not true," Kong objects, while still defending from the bat's attacks, "He's still a boy, he will find his purpose eventually."
"A boy with powers could either become a protector of hope, or a miserable destroyer," Camazotz slashes against Kong's chest, "I don't think you can raise him well enough to be the former."
Ekrixinatosaurus gets up, though with pain, staring down the hellbats with fury. "YOU interrupted my training! You don't get to preach about who I am!"
"And who's fault was it that a tunnel to the surface world was opened, conveniently above us?" Camazotz replied, ordering the hellswarm to attack Ekrixinatosaurus.
The abelisaur gets knocked back down, repeatedly getting stabbed and bitten by the bats.
"FINE!" he roared with pain, "I didn't mean it! I was just trying to learn my powers, and get stronger! That's what Kong wanted!"
Kong looks at his friend, shedding a tear, now motivated to push Camazotz back. He pummels and punches the giant bat, triggering the sonic scream again.
Ekrixinatosaurus stumbles back, the energy within him reacting negatively to the weaponized frequencies. He pushes his head forward, trying to get up again. "I'm just a boy, and I accept that!"
Kong and Camazotz continue clashing with eachother's strengths.
Ekrixinatosaurus gets up, grabbing one of the hellbats and throwing it around against the others. Golden sparks of light begin to finally glow from his body.
"I just want to be as strong as my brother."
(Final battle music or smth)
A golden pulse of circling lights booms from within Ekrixinatosaurus, eviscerating the hellbats that were ordered to keep him down. Camazotz looks with horror, and unleashes his supersonic scream, knocking Ekrixinatosaurus back and dispersing the golden energy.
Kong is inspired by Ekrixinatosaurus's revival of hope, and uppercuts Camazotz with a dramatic fist, stopping the sonic attack.
In the few moments where the effects of the sonic boom were taking place, some hellbats rush to attack Ekrixinatosaurus, however he leaps to grab one of them with his jaws, slamming them to the ground and causing them to be burnt away with golden energy coursing through. He tailslaps another to a bone from the pit, and delivers the fate of the first to another with a choke and a slam.
Enraged, Camazotz slashed Kong repeatedly, hurrying to stop Ekrixinatosaurus. With a sonic boom and a roar, he disorients the abelisaur, but isn't enough to physically stop him. Kong similarly rushes towards Ekrixinato's aid, leaping onto the bat and knocking him down. "Do it son!" the primate encouraged, holding Camazotz by the throat.
Ekrixinatosaurus hovers up, with wings of golden light. "Sorry if I disappoint your kind, or something. Any last words before you get annihilated?"
Camazotz struggles to talk, but manages to leave an impression.
"Remember.. me... and don't.. forget, who you are in.. this world.."
With some hesitation, Ekrixinatosaurus subatomizes Camazotz with his golden energy beam, sending the rest of the hellswarm to retreat inside the Hollow Earth tunnel. Both Ekrixinato and Kong drop down with exhaustion.
"You did great," Kong remarked, breathing heavily, "I think this should do as training."
"Thanks," Ekrixinato replied, noticing the tunnel, "Are we.. going to cover that up or something?"
"No we can go there if you want."
"Sweet," Ekrixinato starts to rest, "Damn it's been a long day."
