History
Skull Island: The Birth of Kong
Skull Island: The Birth of Kong #1
In the year 1995, Aaron hacked into his father's classified Monarch files, and was enraged to find that his father had entrusted a MUTO called Kong to protect the world from the numerous other MUTOs on a secret island. Houston maintained that Kong was the only thing keeping the island in balance, but Aaron refused to believe it, and was not satisfied with the alleged satellite monitoring that Monarch had been doing on the island. Aaron felt that his father was making hollow threats, and stormed out of his house. Aaron then organized an alleged expedition to a MUTO fossil deposit in Antarctica, but instead gathered Evenij Medov, Evelyn Matamavi, Helen Karston, and Walter Riccio, and their pilot into a stolen military prototype landing craft and went to Skull Island to get solid assurance that the world was safe. It was meant to be a short operation under a maximum of 72 hours, but shortly after they cleared the storm system surrounding the island. He apologized for his actions in his voice logs, which he had been making more for his father than anyone else, and told of how just after clearing the horrid storm, they were shot down by Psychovultures. Their pilot ordered them to jump, and the team landed in a clearing. After regrouping and admiring the Leafwings, they decided to head for their fallen transport to get their supplies, however when they turned to begin their journey, they were ambushed by Death Jackals, one of which immediately bit and eviscerated Karston. Unoccupied pack members attacked the party, with Medov sustaining heavy injuries before the immense fist of Kong came down and crushed the pack. While trying to help Medov in a nearby cave, a group of Iwi people approached, with an English-speaking child who referred to them as Awati: The people who come from the sky.
In 2012, the Australian Navy found Aaron's logs in a Monarch float bag in the South Pacific.
