I'm not kidding about

him being my dad.

You better run, Isabel.

Isabel:
Aah!

[Metal creaking]

Belloc:
[Snarling]

Duncan:
I said run!

Isabel:
[Breathing heavily]

[Gasps]

Belloc:
[Sniffing]

Isabel:
Ugh!

Duncan:
No! Let her go!

You'll crush her!

[Grunts]

Belloc:
[Laughs evilly]

Duncan:
I said let her go!

Isabel:
Duncan.

Duncan:
Aah!

Belloc:
[Snarling]

Duncan:
Let me go!

[Footsteps pounding]

Belloc:
[Snarling]

Duncan:
Where are you taking me?

Belloc:
[Roars]

[Laughs]

Excellent.

Duncan:
Huh?

Belloc:
Duncan...

Let me look at you.

Duncan:
Why don't you just

kill me and get it over with?

Belloc:
If I wanted to

kill you, you'd be dead.

[Inhales deeply]

Duncan:
[Gasps lightly]

Belloc:
We are an ancient race, Duncan,

so old we became myths to the humans.

They call us invaders, when it is

they who have infested our world.

Duncan:
Where are we?

Belloc:
Home, Duncan,

your true home.

Duncan:
No way.

This isn't my home.

That doesn't change just

because my father's a Kaiju!

Belloc:
I am not a Kaiju.

I am Belloc, king of the Kaiju!

Though you are my

son, you are weak.

Duncan:
[Breathing heavily]

Unh!

I'm strong enough!

Belloc:
No.

The human world has

made your heart soft.

You must be hard and remorseless

if you are to rule over the Kaiju.

Listen.

They're assembling.

They've caught our scent.

Come.

Duncan:
[Grunts]

Belloc:
There is a war coming, Duncan,

between Human and Kaiju,

a war that could end

everything.

It is a terrible burden to bear.

But for the good of all,

you have no choice.

Duncan:
You think I'm going to

be king of these creatures?

I am not a monster!

Belloc:
You are my son!

You are half-Kaiju, Duncan, superior

to everyone you have ever known.

Duncan:
That's why

you brought me here?

You ignore me for 16 years, and

and you expect to train me for

something that I

don't even want?!

[Gasps]

Belloc:
[Snarling]

[Snarls]

[Roars]

Belloc:
I'm your king.

This is my son.

You desecrate our race!

You shame our ceremony!

Bad enough you keep us from

exterminating the human vermin.

Now you mate with them.

Belloc:
Who challenges

their king?!

You, abaddon?

Or you, astaroth?

[Hisses]

Belloc:
I thought as much.

Then I make my choice.

This is Duncan, my heir!

Duncan:
Huh?

W-what happens now?

Ugh!

Aaaaaaaah!

Belloc:
[Snarling]

[Roars]

Duncan:
[Snarling]

[Exhales slowly]

[Grunting]

[Roars]

Belloc:
[Roars]

[Hisses]

Duncan:
Ugh.

[Bird crying]

What?

[Exhales heavily]

[Bird crying]

[Clicking]

[Whimpering]

[Insects chirping]

[Knock on door]

Duncan:
Ken, it's me.

Ken:
Duncan?

Duncan:
Wait up.

Before you open the door,

you need to know... I look weird.
