## Plot (Story)

Logos start to play as we view Me and Asaka walking to the temple that is emitting the purple beam in the sky. This could be our way home but we don’t know that for sure. Asaka stops to dump some sand from her shoe before continuing the walk. I looked back at her before we found some rocks to settle down on and she set her spear down and dumped more sand out of her shoe. [Asaka] “<God! At this point, I hate sand now! Sheesh.>” (Translated from Japanese) [Me] “<Well don’t we all.>” I replied back before Asaka peeked from the rock and noticed something moving in the sand. It looked like something was digging and zigzagging left to right. Asaka tapped my shoulder and tried to get my attention as I noticed the thing swimming in the sand. Three silver spikes rose from the sand as a long red eye glowed in the sand. This could be only one monster. It jumps from the sand, hopping over us and landing down as it turned, spreading its wings out and roaring at us. It was Gigan! Asaka grabbed her spear and snarled towards Gigan. Gigan slammed his tail side to side a few times before roaring. To me, Gigan looked smaller like it shrinked in size. Like he was smaller than last time. Asaka pointed her spear towards Gigan and rushed in as she shouted. Gigan took a few steps forward towards the small human as he raised his claws and was ready to smash her.

[Me] “<Asaka wait!>” I shouted as she dodged the attack and tried to stab Gigan’s arm but it made a clicking sound and pushed her back. She fell on her back as Gigan turned his head towards her, snarling. Asaka threw her spear at Gigan’s face and it bounced right off his skin, falling on the sand. Asaka rushed to grab the spear but Gigan flew up which caused Asaka to fall. Asaka grabbed the spear and quickly got up as we noticed Gigan flying past the sun and coming back to us, roaring at us. I grab Asaka’s hand and we rush back to the forest, ducking as Gigan turns back and flies back towards the temple. It’s like Gigan was protecting that temple or something. We both sat down to take a long rest. [Me] “<We need to think of a plan. How did that thing get down here?!>” I asked myself as Asaka glared at me. She also glared back at Gigan who landed at the temple, sniffing and looking around as he roared. Meanwhile far in the forest, Kong had landed near a large waterfall that connects to the ocean as he takes a sip. He then glared and slammed his fist in the ocean! A green tail slither away out in the open ocean and Kong chased it. Then it was revealed to be Manda! Manda wrapped his body around Kong as Kong held his neck and pushed it away from Manda. Manda then bends down as he throws Kong, using his own weight against him to back slam him into the waterfall! Making Kong groan in pain as Manda swam towards him, jaws open. Kong then got up but not in time as Manda bit his neck! Kong grabs both jaws and separates Manda’s jaws to force him to let go as Manda falls into the ocean.

Manda smacked Kong in the face with his tail, laughing at the giant villainous ape as Kong snarled and pounded his chest, roaring at the sea serpent before Manda roared back, drooling. Manda then slither towards Kong, biting his hand as Kong kicked Manda back, breaking one of his arms! Manda looked at his broken arm before slithering into the ocean to swim away and heal. Kong had won this battle for now as he walked away. Back with us, it was nighttime and Asaka had decided to walk on the sandy beaches alone while I was sleeping. She doesn’t seem to see Gigan anywhere as it was too dark for her to see but she looks up at the night skies and starts glaring back at her. I slowly woke up and noticed Asaka staring up at the skies while some of the stars glared back at her. [Me] “<What are you doing...Asaka?>” I asked, slowly approaching her.

[Asaka] “<How come the most dangerous places turn out to be the most beautiful places?” She said while looking up at the stars, smiling. I looked at her before looking up at the stars. Then a spear nearly landed on our feet! We looked towards our campsite, looking at the female stranger who threw that spear before she revealed her pink-ish long hair. [Me] “<Who are you?>” I asked the stranger. She didn’t reply back but walked towards us, grabbing the spear she threw and pointed it towards my neck. She glared at me before I glared back at her eyes. She looked away, slightly..blushing? She pointed the spear down and motioned us towards the campfire as we walked to our campfire. We all sat down together but Me and Asaka looked at the female stranger. [Me] “Who are you?” I asked once more. [Stranger Sign Language] “<An Iwi. The last of my kind.>” [Asaka] “<What did she say?>” [Me] “<Hold up. I kinda understand what she is saying.>” I faced her and she tilted her head. [Me Sign Language] “<What is an Iwi?>” I signed language back. She seemed surprised that I could sign language back. [Stranger Sign Language] “<It is my tribe.>” [Asaka] “<Well? What’s she saying?!>” [Me] “<She’s an Iwi. They were the village people that got wiped out.>” She nodded yes. [Me Sign Language] “<What is your name?>” [Stranger Sign Language] “<I-...don’t have one. We Iwis lived by the Code of Honor which we don’t speak or say our names.>” [Me Sign Language] “<I see. Well how about->” I paused for a moment while thinking of a name as I whispered into Asaka’s ear. [Me whispering] “<She doesn’t have a name. Got any good ones?” I whispered into her ear as Asaka looked back at the stranger and looked back at me, whispering the name. [Stranger Sign Language] “<How about what?>” She signed language to me. [Me Sign Language] “<How about..Jasmine?>” I signed language back. She slightly gasped and smiled while blushing. [Jasmine Sign Language] “<I..love it.>” She signed, smiling.

A few minutes had passed as Asaka started to look up at the stars again as Me and Jasmine were getting to know each other via sign language. I learn more about the Iwi culture and how they were wiped out. [Me Sign Language] “<Is there a way we can get to the temple without being killed by that...thing?>” I signed to her and pointed at the temple which we think is the way home. She looked back at the temple and looked back at me. [Jasmine Sign Language] “<Yes. There is a tunnel underneath the sand but it might lead you halfway to the temple, the rest is on foot I’m afraid.>” There were some trees breaking in the distance as Jasmine stood up, pointing her spear. She grabbed my hand and forced us to duck underneath a tree log, hiding from whatever was coming. Then BOOM! It’s gray foot stomp in front of us as I peeked to see who it is. It’s Godzilla! He snarled while looking at the temple before making his way towards it. Asaka turned around and noticed Godzilla stomping towards the temple before she gasped and duck down, getting out of his hand as he stomped towards the temple, sniffing the air. Asaka ran back to us, bending down. [Asaka] “<What’s Godzilla doing here?!>” [Me] “<I don’t know but we need to go in order to live.>” I said as I helped Jasmine up and we ran away from the site as Godzilla roared in the air. The End?
