It started with intense heat, then pain. The pain of his heart melting. The Behemoth raised his head to the sky and moaned as his chest exploded outward.

He knew he was dying. It was an undeniable fact, one that was ingrained into his mind. Sorrow coursed throughout his being. His child was dead. The murderer, dead, but not by his doing.

Stripped of his child, his revenge, and now his life, there was nothing left to do but cry. He felt his energy pour out of him, flowing through the air. Briefly his mind turned to that female insect, the one who had helped him several times, and had taken care of his child.

Slowly, his flesh melted away, leaving bone, and even that was slowly dissolving. In the back of his mind, the Behemoth knew that this would lay waste to his homeland, destroying everything in and around it, leaving it a barren wasteland.

No, he would not allow that to happen. He still had one last thing to do before he died, one last resort. As his body slowly fell to the ground, he transferred all the energy out of him into his child's body, allowing his child to live, and continue his legacy.

His final gift to his child, his son.

As everything slowly faded away to nothing, he heard something in the back of his mind. Very faint, but something that he understood, and it soothed the dying beast's heart and mind.

"My job is done. Good-bye Godzilla."

And with that, there was nothing left. Nothing but the radiation that flowed through Junior's body, reviving him and making him full size.

And thus Godzilla, King of the Monsters, died.


Author's Notes: I just finished watching Godzilla vs Destoroyah and as usual it was very touching. I wrote this small fanfic while listening to the track that plays when Godzilla dies, Requiem.

This is just something to help me get back into writing. Hope you enjoyed it and I recommend listening to the track Requiem from Godzilla vs Destoroyah while reading this.
