Biography
Rainsford and Whitney crashed into an island near the Caribbean Sea. After crashing, Rainsford started hearing bullets from a distance. He ended up falling overboard to see where the sound was coming from. To survive, Rainsford had to swim towards the island. Thereupon, he meets two Cossacks named General Zaroff and Ivan (and his pack of hound dogs too).

Soon, Rainsford mentions about hunting animals and humans. This made Zaroff backlash at him shouting that "it is murder when you went humans". Soon, Zaroff and Ivan are trying to kill him with their weapons. Rainsford was able to set traps to kill Ivan. As Ivan was killed by the trap, Zaroff was injured by one of them. While avoiding, Rainsford ended up going into the quicksand, which made him trapped by himself.

Rainsford was able to dig out of the hole and landed back in the beach. Soon, Rainsford ended up taunting Zaroff that he is still alive. Zaroff ended up in despair and is soon lying down motionless. Soon, Rainsford realized that Zaroff would be fed to the dogs. Zaroff had a positive life after thwarting the two villains.
