Ok, a story I thought up for this holiday. Something about Geronimon seemed perfect for a Christmas story, maybe the colorful feathers. Anyway, this'll be mostly battles to enjoy, but of course this will be funny in places as well. I wanted to focus on the monsters and Ultras in this fanfic as well. Anyway, enjoy and happy holidays! Though I don't expect this to be finished before Christmas actuelly happens.
Ultraman: Christmas Chaos
Chapter 1: Christmas Present
Earth, Christmas Eve 2009;
Its been several years since Mebius left the Earth. Like with the organizations before it, GUYS has been disbanded, since there were no more monsters to face. People enjoyed the peace, on this day more than any other. Christmas Eve, the next morning, children would wake up to find presents under their trees, though dependent on where in the world it was, that wasn't completely the case. But everyone was excited for the coming of Christmas, some for more sinister reasons. On an island in the middle of the northern Pacific Ocean, something evil was rising. In the time of the original Ultraman, Ultraman faced a monster called Geronimon, a kaiju capable of reviving other monsters. With the help of the Science Patrol, Geronimon and his monsters were all slain…but like many other monsters, Geronimon wasn't the only one of his species. The snow now buried this remote island, covering the awful beast that slept here.
The snow in the middle of the island began to shake and something stirred beneath it. Multicolored feathers broke the surface of the snow as the massive form of a kaiju broke free. Towering above the snowy wasteland, Geronimon roared out. The feathers down his back and tail contrasted with both the white landscape and the green, dinosaur-like main body of the kaiju, what appeared to be a white beard on his face. Geronimon looked around, realizing that mankind was presently celebrating one of their holidays and wouldn't be expected an attack. The kaiju smiled sinisterly and his eyes glowed, Red King was the first monster to take shape, the brownish brute of a dinosaur gave a roar from his toothy maw, which set on his relatively tiny head. Geronimon was smarter than the original, he knew not to revive two at a time unless they were allies, or else they may fight like the original's creations had before orders could be given. He directed Red King to go to New York. Once Red King had gone to sea and headed towards his target, Geronimon resurrected a tall red monster, while most of its body was normal enough, for a reptilian monster, its head was wide with two separate faces and beaks on the same neck. Pandon screeched and looked at its master, Geronimon pointed and Pandon made its way towards California, going to make landfall in San Francisco. Geronimon roared before beginning to recreate more kaiju.
The Land of Light;
The Land of Light, homeworld of the mighty Ultra race, located in the eye of Taurus, Nebula M78. It wasn't the only planet that Ultras called home, there were others elsewhere in the universe, but this was the most prominent of the Ultra homelands. Mebius, the youngest Ultraman to defend the Earth, took a fighting stance in a large training arena, the very planet itself glowing from its artificial sun, the Plasma Spark, and the buildings gigantic to accommodate the colossal natural height of the Ultras. Across from the red and silver Ultra, Leo stood. The native to Nebula L77 was training Mebius, as he had on Earth during Mebius' time as its protector. "Lets hope you've improved since our last sparing session on Earth," said Leo, like all Ultras communication was strictly telepathy, as their mouths where frozen in place, unable to move, taking his fighting stance as well.
"Don't worry, brother Leo, I have trained a great deal since then, I will not disappoint you," replied Mebius.
Leo nodded, his short horns shining in the bright light of the planet. "We shall see," he stated. He charged Mebius and attempted a chop to Mebius' head, only to be caught and flipped over the young Ultra's shoulder. Mebius tried to follow up by hitting Leo with a kick while he was down but Leo rolled out of the way and swept Mebius' feet out from under him before springing up to his feet and trying a roundhouse kick as Mebius got to his feet. Mebius ducked and tried a chop, which was blocked by Leo's arm. The two jumped back from each other and resumed their fighting stances and began circling each other. "Indeed, you have improved, Mebius, I'm impressed."
Mebius nodded. "I learned from the best, you and the other Ultra Brothers," he said, before charging and trying a flying jump kick at Leo. Leo did a back flip to dodge the attack and the two threw a flurry of punches and kicks at each other, each blocking flawlessly, though Leo got the advantage of leverage and forced Mebius back before giving him a back kick to the chest, staggering him back. Leo tried a jumping chop but Mebius sidestepped and roundhouse kicked him in the back, throwing him forwards.
Leo turned quickly, dodging another attempted punch and back flipped to get distance. He charged and fired a red beam of energy from his wrist. Mebius replied with by putting up a shield of flaming energy to block and then threw several energy blasts at Leo. Leo did repeated back flips, dodging the beams which exploded on the ground. Leo jumped high into the air and came down with a diving kick, his foot glowing with red energy, his signature Leo Kick. Mebius jumped up and kicked up before spinning rapidly, igniting his leg as he did the Mebium Drill Kick. The two kicks collided, sending out a flaming shockwave in all directions. When the blast ended, both landed, hurt, but not badly enough to count as victory. Leo nodded, breaking his stance. "Good job, you've improved greatly," he said. "But should I expect any less from the one who defeated Enpera?"
Mebius broke stance as well. "It wasn't all me, Zoffy, Hikari, and the rest of GUYS all helped defeat him, you and the others undid his attack on the sun."
Ultraseven walked into the room. "Good job Mebius and as always, a great fight Leo," he said. "Now come on, lets go rest, you both deserve that after a good sparing session."
The two fighters nodded and followed him. "How are things on Earth right now?" asked Leo, after the destruction of his homeworld by the Magma Seijin, Earth had been his home, as close to one as he could have.
"Very good. To my knowledge, they're celebrating Christmas right now."
Mebius was confused. "Christmas? What is that?"
Ultraseven looked at him. "Oh, that's correct, when you were there you never got to celebrate it," he said. "Christmas is a holiday humans celebrate, to one of their religions, it celebrates the birth of a savior, the son of their God, who was born to enable them all to reach their heaven," he explained. "That supposedly happened over 2000 years ago. Anyway, Christmas is celebrated by putting up decorations of all sorts and leaving them under a decorated Christmas tree, a pine tree I believe, though this job also falls to one they call Santa Claus, who many of them believe doesn't exist."
"And that Father once imitated," said Taro, walking into the conversation. "To help some children I knew celebrate the holiday. Anyway, humans also exchange gifts on that day, though some religious groups, such as the Jewish religion, celebrate alternative holidays, such as Hanukkah, which involves a several day celebration. Anyway, humans are generally quite jolly on this time of year."
Mebius remembered his human friends. "I am sure my human friends are celebrating the holiday as we speak, I do miss them."
"Well then ask Zoffy or the Father of Ultra if you may go on a short leave to go to Earth, they'll understand," said Ultraseven. "We've all had friends on Earth at one time or another…well maybe not Astra, he didn't really come to Earth except to help his brother if needed."
Zoffy approached, humorless as usual, studs on his chest sparkling in the light of the planet. "I'm afraid any celebrating at all will need to wait, we've received word that Earth is under a large scale monster attack as we speak," he said, the others gasping when he said so. "We believe some other force is behind it but we cannot be sure, so we're heading planet side to take them down. Ultraman, Jack, Ace, and 80 are already on their way there but we all need to go, there's too many monsters for just those four to deal with," he said, transforming into a red sphere of light and flying off.
Taro looked at Mebius. "Well you wanted to go to Earth, now's your chance," he said, then turned into a travel sphere himself as well, Leo, Ultraseven, and Mebius following suit. All four of them rocketed off towards Earth.
A nice training battle between Leo and Mebius, though it was fitting. Anyway, next chapter it gets good! Two battles, I'll let you guess who it'll be though.
