Hey guys! This is my first fanfic on here so no hate please. R&R would be much appreciated though!
"Three years ago," the gargantuan lizard thinks to himself, "three years ago I lost her."
Godzilla is what the Americans called him but he prefers the name Zilla, a name his surrogate father, Nick Tatopoulos, started calling him after he did research on the name Godzilla and found out Zilla looks nothing like how Godzilla is described in myth.
Outside of H.E.A.T. headquarters on Staten island Zilla sits in the water with only his head sticking halfway out. His gaze focused on the sunset as it glistens across the bay and creates a beautiful backdrop for the city. "She would have loved this view," he thinks as a sad sigh escapes from his nostrils.
Nick stares out the window at his, in a way, adopted son. He keeps his hands in his pockets as he leans against the window frame and sighs. Elsie walks up behind him and looks at their big friend. "Maybe you should talk to him," she says, breaking Nick from his focus on Zilla, turning to look at her.
"You think he'll understand what I have to say?" Nick asks, turning to look back out the window.
"You're acting like you've never talked to him, of course he'll understand you, doofus," she says as she lightly smacks the back of his head. Nick stares at her for a second before turning and walking towards the elevator that leads outside.
Zilla is broken from his trance when he hears the metal doors open and turns to see Nick walking out. "Hey big guy," Nick says as he waves at the monster. Zilla barely moves his head to say hi. Nick sits on the concrete dock next to Zilla who pushes his head down into the water where only right under his eyes and up are above the water.
"Thinking about her again?" Nick asks the big lizard.
Zilla ducks his head some in the water, letting a sad growl shake the water around his head.
"I wish I could bring her back buddy but I can't. I'm sorry Zilla."
Zilla sighs, making waves flow across the bay.
"You know, mutations aren't showing up as often anymore. I don't know how much longer we're going to be able to fight them."
Suddenly Zilla's head perks up out of the water and an odd expression comes across his face.
"What is it big guy?" Asks a very curious Tatopoulos as Randy comes running outside to him, yelling "Nick! Nick you won't believe what I'm about to tell you!"
"It must be important since you called me by my name," Nick says as he's turning around, along with Zilla looking at him.
"Japan has reported a giant monster sited off of Kyoto. They say he's at least 100 meters tall, man!"
Nick's eyes widen, "That's gotta be the biggest mutation I've ever heard of." A look of fear comes across Zilla's face.
"It's no mutation dude! They call it a Kaiju, this kind a Daikaiju specifically," Randy says excitedly as the rest of the team start loading the Heat Seeker up. A perplexed look comes across Nick's face and Randy continues, "a Kaiju is a monster that can be human sized or larger. A Daikaiju is a giant monster. And they all are gods or creations of man or other sentient life."
"So Zilla is a Daikaiju by Japanese terms?"
"Yeah, and he is a pretty kick ass one at that."
"Hey guys, we're heading out now!" Elsie yells at the two of them. "We're coming!" Nick and Randy yell at the same time with Zilla giving a little roar too.
Ooooohhhhh so something is attacking Japan and Zilla is going there. Where is this story going? Probably not the way you think it is.
