smashes bus

Ann Darrow awoke to see the bright lights, hear the blaring horn and screeching brakes of the bus as it collided with the monster holding her in its grip. She clung on tightly as Kong staggered backward before recovering his balance and advancing on his adversary with the same unconquerable fury that she had seen on the island. With three crashing blows he caved in the top of the bus, almost flattening it to the ground. When the horn became stuck and blared continuously, Ann could sense Kong’s fury redouble. He lifted the front of the wreck and sent it spinning across Broadway, taking out light posts and cars all along the street. Spilled gasoline flared with a whump, bursting into flickering light and heat. The street had become a living hell.
