AUTHOR NOTES: This whole plot came into mind after watching Godzilla (The American remake) and the animated series. I don't want to give anything away, not wanting to spoil anything. But what I can tell you is that characters from the movie will be in this story but their roles will be different in this compared to the movie and the series. Niko Tatopoulo doesn't adopt Zilla Jr., and the French aren't involved at all in this (in other words, Monique isn't in this at all). But Elsie and Mendel are still in this story, I could never get rid of these two characters. Although I do boot Randy out of the picture as well. Sorry to all those Randy fans out there, please don't leave hateful comments. But for those that do have wonderful memories and remember everyone's name from the movie, I have Sergeant O'Neal replacing Monique and Randy.
And don't hate me for this one, but I don't have Niko and Audrey dating at all because I want him to have a relationship with someone else (my OC). And my OC's will have a major role in this story, but H.E.A.T will still be active in this. It will make better sense when the story gets up and running.
DISCLAIMER: I OWN NOTHING OF GODZILLA!
After the reports of the Flame Island Nuclear Reactor leak, everyone was concerned about the impact the leak would have on the environment, and everyone living around the small island in the Atlantic Ocean. As they should have every right to be, after the mishaps with the plants that leaked, killing thousands. But this leak was different. There were no fatalities to the population. Even the environment didn't seem to be affected by the radiation. Or so the environmentalists claimed. But they missed the mutation process that was taking place on animals that were exposed to the radiation fallout. It would only take them decades to find out their mistake.
Over the course of time, the radiation leakage, and the mixing of the other radiation that haf been circulating in the earth for centuries, began to create a cocktail that wasn't potent enough to kill, but was potent enough to mutate. The first to see the effects of the mutations was Japan's city of Tokyo. A large raptor-like creature that was roughly thirty stories high and caused a lot of damage to the city. Japan tried their military power to get rid of the mutated menace, but were only wasting their fire power. The mutant simply got angrier and wrecked more of the city. The destruction lasted for two long weeks before the lizard disappeared into the ocean to its next destination of destruction. The Japanese called this creature Godzilla, or Gojira in their tongue.
Godzilla popped up for a brief moment in Jamaica, and then disappeared back into the ocean where he continued his journey. New York was his next stop, and nothing was going to prepare the public for the massive onslaught of destruction. The herculean lizard touched down on Manhattan, New York, startling everyone as the reptile roamed the streets, smashing cars with his monstrous feet and wrecking buildings with a whip-like tail and a large body.
New York went into the state of emergency and evacuated the city of Manhattan. The only ones that remained were the military and a research team. The military carried the guns and man power need to take down the threat, the research team held the brains of the operation. They collaborated for hours on how to take down the large reptile that still raged through the city. When the military settled an air assault on Godzilla, he disappeared into the city. The disappearance of the mutant was baffling to the research team. How could a thirty story monster vanish? They later found out that Godzilla burrowed below the city, out of the range of sight of the humans that had threaten him. A search team was sent to investigate the tunnel the monstrosity created, and found that there was a maze of tunnels.
The team immediately set out a plan to lure Godzilla out from hiding and into the open. In the center of the city they had placed a pile of fish. For hours the military sat and waited for the large lizard to pop his rearing head out in the open, but he never showed. It wasn't until they opened the manholes that Godzilla rose up from his underground lair. He started to chow down on the fish, oblivious to the guns that were aimed at him. Godzilla was halfway done with his meal when the first shot of a missile fired at him. He switched his attention back to the military that were still firing at him. When other missiles were fired, Godzilla ducked in cover as the missiles whizzed past him and blew up a skyscraper behind him. Godzilla zipped past the military and ran through the city with an air force behind him. Out of nowhere the air team got attacked from behind by another Godzilla.
Both the military and the researchers were amazed and startled to see another creature in the city. The research team believed that the second Godzilla was a female and a mate to the first Godzilla. Blood tests were run thanks to the blood samples they retrieved at the scene where the female was injured from the air force. The results were shown to be positive, the female Godzilla was pregnant. The explanation to why Godzilla arrived in New York, was that it was a nesting site for the expecting parents! The nest needed to be found and destroyed before the eggs could be laid or hatch. With the help of heat detectors, the search for the eggs was cut in half and with a surprise. The eggs were clustered inside Madison Square Garden with their mother. From the heat detectors it appeared that there were at least a thousand eggs in the walls of the garden.
Missiles were fired, sending the whole building ablaze and illuminating the whole city in an eerie light. The cries of the burning female and a few of the young that had managed to hatch filled the air, as they burned alive in the inferno. The chard female laid shriveled, no longer the mighty queen of mutants she once was. Her eggs crumbled under the rain drops, washing away any trace of the human's fire. It was finally over. Only one thing lingered in the back of everyone's mind: Where was the father?
The earth shook and out of the ground came the male like the devil himself. The military stood back, watching the mighty creature nudging his mate. But nothing he did was going to bring her or his young back to life. Godzilla roared in agony. He was alone and he wanted revenge. He rampaged through the military barricade, chasing the vehicles that escaped his jaws. He followed the vehicles through the city, clamping down on the ones that he caught up to. Only one of the vehicles managed to avoid his jaws, but they had to find a way to get rid of the giant lizard.
The last jeep rodr through the city, leading Godzilla toward the Brooklyn Bridge after getting orders from their commander that an air strike team would be waiting for them. The jeep zipped through the bridge with Godzilla close at their tail. But Godzilla got caught in the cable that held the bridge in place and was an easy target for the air strike team to take him out. Once the jeep was safely off the bridge, the air strike team fired their first shot on Godzilla. Godzilla tried to lash out at the air strike team as they whizzed by him, circling back around to take another shot at him. The second assault brought Godzilla down to the ground. Godzilla's eyes closed as his last breath was drawn. The mighty king had died and the terror was over.
The military ordered the return of the residents of Manhattan, and began the long and painful repairs. Life in Manhattan went back to its usual beat of life, forgetting about Godzilla and the horror that he had caused. The research team went back to their previous assignments, never to mention their work with the 'Operation: Godzilla Take Down.' The military continued their service to their country, going to war and helping countries that needed their aid.
Thankful that the two Godzillas were gone, people soon forgot about the next, thinking that after the eggs and their mother were set ablaze that there was nothing else to worry about. If they looked deeper into the garden, they would have seen a lone egg, spared from the inferno that killed his family. The reign of Godzilla wasn't over, not by a long shot.
Please R&R. There is more to come.
