Authors Note: Well, well. Weren't expecting this were ya? I haven't really gotten into Monster Hunter, but I do love Godzilla. And hey, it would be pretty awesome to see Godzilla go toe to toe with some of those behemoths, so why not? As with ARC-V2, I will not be updating this story as much. Also, in terms of what Godzilla I'm using, use the one that looks like the one from Final Wars as reference. Anyway, please enjoy. Oh, also, I will be uploading another chapter of ARC-V2 soon, so stay tuned.
Prologue
Within a the chamber of a cave, rocks slowly began to fall down in a fine dust. Suddenly, the rocks fell and created a hole in the ceiling. Light shone down as a rope fell through the hole in the ceiling. A person then began climbing down the rope, followed by another, then another.
Once the first person reached the bottom, they turned on their flashlight and began looking around while the other two slid down. The first person was a Japanese man who looked to be in his early fifties. He had ruffled black hair and short nose. His eyes were a deep, ocean blue. He wore an explorer's outfit, with a brown fanny pack.
There was also a woman, who was Japanese as well. She had long black hair tied back in a ponytail. She had brown eyes and freckles on her cheeks. The woman wore a similar garb to the first man, except she had a white ascot on her neck. She looked to be about twenty seven.
The final person was a European man, specifically from Britain. He had medium blonde hair and a sharp nose. He had sharp brown eyes and a birthmark over his upper lip. He looked to be in his late thirties.
The three people shined their flashlights all over the cave walls intently, as if looking for something. Finally, the older man stopped and signaled the other two.
"Mao, Roger, look at this!" said the older man.
The other two, Mao and Roger quickly walked to where he was and looked up. On the wall was a large cave carving. The carving depicted a square, with smaller squares on each corner. Within the smaller squares were pictures that depicted some sort of creatures.
Inside the large square was a carving of the planet. In the center, there was another square depicting a creature.
"Incredible." the man named Roger said, taking pictures as he did. "Simply incredible."
"It's amazing Dr. Hashimoto." said Mao.
"Indeed." said Dr. Hashimoto. "We've found so much of the ancient Hantā people. But nothing like this."
"A race of ancient hunters." said Roger. "What could they be depicting here?"
"Look, at the bottom." pointed Mao. "There's writing."
Sure enough, there were other carvings underneath the larger carving. They appeared to be some sort of words.
Dr. Hashimoto had Roger shine his light over the words as he wrote them down. Once they were written, he took a closer look at them.
"It is difficult to decipher." said Dr. Hashimoto. "After all, the language of the Hantā people has been lost over the ages. However, I can roughly translate it, as it the language is similar to a combination of Digaro and Puroik."
"Let's do it outside." said Mao. "Better light."
"Right." said Roger.
Once the three made it outside, they walked back to their camp. At the camp, several dozen men were digging all over the place. They had found the remains of many houses, furniture, weapons, tools, people, and other objects.
The three explorers walked into a tent and Dr. Hashimoto began to translate the Hantā carving. After about two hours, he wrote down what he believed it said. He could not believe his eyes when he, Mao, and Roger read it over.
Be warned of the titans of Earth, Wind, Fire, and Water. These beasts rise above all others. Should they be awakened, the world shall be on the brink of destruction. If these beasts awaken, they will unleash the protector, who will wipe out the world in his path to defeat the four. Disturb them not, should the hunt begin.
You have been warned.
"What does it mean?" Mao asked. "The titans of Earth, Wind, Fire, and Water?"
"I'm not sure." said Dr. Hashimoto. "It is rather curious. Particularly when they mention the hunt."
"Well, the Hantā people were infamous for being hunters." said Roger, looking over his pictures. "Perhaps they were referring to creatures they would hunt in the wild."
"Well, legends tend to stem from other phenomena." said Dr. Hashimoto. "Particularly legends about gods, titans, and-"
"Oh my god." said Roger, looking at a photo with shock.
"What?" Mao and Dr. Hashimoto said together.
"I was looking at the carving again." said Roger. "Look at the one in the middle of the earth."
The other two looked at the carving. Now that it was closer, they got a better look at the creature within it. It looked to be a lizard like creature, with spiny dorsal fins on its back. It appeared to also be breathing fire.
"It can't be." said Mao, holding her breath. "It's impossible."
"That carving is supposed to represent the protector." said Dr. Hashimoto. "Now it makes sense why that warning said the protector would destroy everything in its path."
"But can it really be true?" Roger asked. "Would it be possible."
"It has been theorized that he has been seen throughout history." said Dr. Hashimoto, taking the picture. "But this truly confirms it. The Hantā people have seen Godzilla."
