Soon, the ground began to shake violently.
"WAAAGH!"
Ugrul and his mob of "Choppa" Boyz appeared at the mouth of the canyon.
When Ugrul saw the towering figure standing alone in the middle of the canyon, clad in black Terminator Armour, his red eyes instantly locked onto the... thing on the figure's chest that was raising its middle finger.
