Realizing the defiance of his enemy, Kong abruptly rushed forward again. The flesh eater, only halfway back on its feet, fell heavily onto its side as Kong rained more blows upon its body. Finally the saurian managed to wedge a huge three-toed foot between its own body and Kong’s chest and kicked with all its might. The thrust flung Kong off his feet, and he tumbled backward. As he landed on his heels, the momentum sent him sprawling uncontrollably into the great trunk atop which Ann sat.

Ann held on desperately as the ancient trunk suddenly cracked, the deep roots creaking as if groaning in pain. Slowly, the tree began to topple. Ann clung tightly as the trunk smashed into the undergrowth. The impact jarred her loose and she rolled into springy, thick brush that cushioned her landing. A heavy, short spike of branch had thrust itself into the earth and now kept the entire weight of the trunk from crushing her like an insect. A rush of adrenaline helped keep Ann lucid. She still had a ringside seat, only now she was on ground level and the two combatants loomed above her.
The chest of each giant heaved as each took the other’s measure and gathered strength.
