Pacific Rise

by Renegade175

Four years after the Breach was thought to have been destroyed, it has reopened. Kaijus have returned and the Jaegers are sent back into action. The new team must rise against these fierce Kaiju. Most of the Jaegers are my own, and there are a lot of OCs in this fight. OCxOC(You'll know who.)Rated T for intense violence, language, and suggestive themes. I do not own Pacific Rim.

Prologue

Third POV

2013, the first Kaiju, known as Trespasser, made land in San Francisco and caused total destruction in three cities over the course of five days. Tens of thousands of lives were lost. The world mourned for the dead and moved on, thinking that the tragedy, known as K-DAY, was just an isolated event.

2014, six months after K-DAY, the second Kaiju attack hit Manila. Four months later, the third Kaiju laid waste to Cabo. Three months pass and the fourth Kaiju attacks Sydney. By that time, it was inevitable that the frequency of attacks was increasing.

The whole world learned that it was not going to stop. Every nation came together, pooled their resources, and set aside old rivalries for the sake of the greater good. To fight monsters, we created monsters of our own.

The Jaeger Program was formed. Huge robots, controlled by a pilot. There were major setbacks, for the neural load to interface and drift with a Jaeger proved too much for a single pilot. Jaegers are now controlled by two pilots, one left and one right. We started winning, with Jaegers taking down Kaijus everywhere. Jaegers were only as good as their pilots. Soon, the fear started to drift away. Then, it all changed.

From 2019 to 2025, Category 4 Kaijus started coming through the Breach. In 2025, Marshall Stacker Pentecost planned to destroy the Breach with a thermo-nuclear explosive, codenamed Operation Pitfall.

Fierce Jaegers, Crimson Typhoon and Cherno Alpha were originally supposed to run defense along with Gipsy Danger to protect Striker Eureka, while it delivered the nuke to the Breach. The day before the mission, two Category 4 Kaijus attacked Hong Kong and destroyed both Crimson Typhoon and Cherno Alpha. One of the two Kaijus incapacitated Striker Eureka with an EMP wave, during which one of the pilots broke his arm. This caused Marshall Pentecost to send in the only other Jaeger: Gipsy Danger, who single-handedly killed both Kaijus.

The following day, Gipsy Danger and Striker Eureka were both deployed and commenced Operation Pitfall. Marshall Pentecost replaced the injured Striker Eureka pilot for the mission. Two Category 4 Kaijus attacked Gipsy Danger while Striker Eureka faced off against the first Category 5 Kaiju ever. During the fight, the release for the nuke was damaged and jammed. It was still armed and Pentecost, along with his co-pilot, who was also the son of the injured pilot, both activated the device and killed one of the Category 4 Kaijus and severely damaging the Category 5 Kaiju. Gipsy Danger killed the other Category 4, but not before it tore off the Jaeger's right arm. Its right leg was also critically damaged. Gipsy Danger finished off the Category 5 Kaiju and activated its nuclear core meltdown to destroy the Breach and end the Kaiju War.

For four years, the world was finally at peace. And then, in 2029…it reopened.
