The monstrous Govark descended from the sky like death itself, claws stretched wide, aiming to crush Madison and the others below. Its face twisted into a savage grin, victory already in its eyes.
But then, midair, it froze.
BOOM!
A massive chunk of rock, larger than a boulder, slammed into its ribs with bone-cracking force. The entire Govark was flung sideways like a ragdoll, crashing into the trees with such power that the ground quaked beneath them. Leaves and debris scattered everywhere, and the impact left a dented trail of destruction as the beast skidded through the jungle.
Gasps and wide eyes filled the air.
The silence that followed was louder than the crash itself.
Everyone turned towards where the rock had come from.
Even the second Govark, the calm and stoic one, raised an eyebrow in visible surprise, as if the appearance of this new presence had genuinely caught it off guard.
Then they saw him.
