A/N: For as long as I can remember, I've been a Godzilla fan. I grew up owning alot of Showa Era Godzilla tapes, like Godzilla vs. the Sea Monsters, Son of Godzilla, King Kong vs. Godzilla, and Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla. So, I grew up loving Godzilla. Recently, as a teenager, I've realized how much I love the nuclear lizard even still. So I've been in a big Godzilla mood for the last year or so. For awhile now, I've been wanting to do a fanfiction based on everyone's favorite atomic dinosaur, and that(for fans of my FLCL: 2nd fic) has been what I've been up to. This is part one of my two part "pilot" of sorts to my fic. I've worked on this for a few months, along with panning out the universe that it takes place in. I've re-written a timeline that puts my kaiju universe in perspective, it can be viewed in my forum here on for my fic.

Now, without further adieu, allow me to present:

War of the Monsters

by Keystaff Master

The War Begins Part I

Deep, deep down in the depths of the deepest ocean, within the deepest trench, something was happening…

At the bottom of this cold, unforgiving ocean floor, the Earth's crust began to part. As a thin crack began to stretch along the entirety of the Marinana, a molten hot steam began to rise; revealing itself in the form of thousands of tiny bubbles rising to the surface. Though the origin and purpose of this fissure could not be explained, one thing was evident; something was about to occur, something big, something… monstrous…

"Commander Tagaki, I think you should have a look at this…" said a young, Japanese woman with somewhat short black hair. She wore a white, Future-inspired jumpsuit and sat at a small rotating chair before a huge monitor, showing the entire world's geography, weather, and temperature.

Around her was a white room lined on all sides with complex computer systems and multiple monitors. Other men and women in white jumpsuits monitored and manned the electronics.

A middle aged man with short, military-style black hair and a similar white jumpsuit came up beside her.

"What is it, Miku?" the commander asked sternly.

"Commander… take a look at this," she said, with a bit of curiosity in her voice.

With a few strokes of her keypad in front of her, the monitor zoomed in on the exact spot, at 11"21' N. latitude and 142"12'E. longitude. The image of the area suddenly changed, now showing the temperatures of the spot in different colors.

"Look," Miku said, staring at the monitor intently.

The commander cocked his eyebrow, "My, my…"

"Within the last few moments, the Mariana Trench is showing a 32 degree temperature increase," she explained, as Commander Tagaki gazed at the screen.

"What do you think could be causing the sudden increase?" Tagaki wondered.

"I don't know. Should we dispatch the Gotengo?" Miku suggested, turning to face her commanding officer.

The commander stared at the monitor intently, before delivering his response sternly. "No, not yet. Continue observation, if it persists we will dispatch a unit to inspect the abnormality."

"Very well, Commander," Miku agreed, returning to her work.

As the commander began to walk away to attend other matters Miku spoke once more.

"But, Commander, do you think this occurrence may effect the kaiju on Monster Island…?"

Far away, across the sea, an large island stood against the horizon. The isle was filled with thick jungles, mountainous cliffs, and deep chasms. Also, amongst these geographical features, many different structures stood. Various towers, bases, and buildings. Even some ancient ruins of a lost civilization. However, these are not the true points of interest…

A monster looked up into the sky from his domain, as an ominous feeling over took him. A large, green, dinosaur-like beast with sharp, maple leaf-shaped spines running down his back; he gazed up sensing that danger was drawing near.

Meanwhile, within the blackness of space, a huge alien ship made its way towards Earth. Massive and supporting what seemed like a city atop it, within an evil race was about to make their move.

Around a large, round table four figures sat in the shadows.

The first of them came forth, a female. She wore a comb-shaped crown over her pale and hairless brow. Her eyes were pale blue and lacked pupils. Her clothing was sharp and almost armor-like. A silver cape flowed behind her.

"The time has come for us to exact our revenge upon Earth!" she spoke proudly and confidently.

The others listened intently.

"For years our plans to invade and conquer the planet have been thwarted by the humans and more so by the monsters that call Earth their home! That is why I have called you here. I, Vorticia, Queen of the Vortaak have called you here to form an alliance to defeat Earth's monsters and conquer their world!" the Vortaakian leader announced.

The shadowy figure to her right came forth. He was male. His hair was black. He was of average build and was clothed in a simple silver jumpsuit. His expression changed not as he spoke.

"You wish to ally with the Simians," he began, skeptically, "What would our race have to offer to your cause?"

Vorticia smirked at this, "Your people are the only ones in the galaxy who have the knowledge to use the powerful space titanium. As well as the original creators of the mechanical beast that almost killed Godzilla many years ago."

"True… but if we wished to resurrect Mechagodzilla, we could just as easily invade on our own," the Simian leader countered.

"And have your robot destroyed again by its flesh and blood counterpart?"

The Black Hole alien didn't respond.

Another of the dark figures came forth. This one was a tall, somewhat, thin man. He had mid-length, black wavy hair and a pair of tinted sunglasses. He wore a fluorescent orange suit.

"What use is my alliance to you?" he asked, intrigued.

"You, the leader of the M Space Hunter Nebula, have control of the powerful Gigan," she explained, "and, with your alliance to the ancient Seatopian race, can call upon the mighty Megalon!"

The Space Hunter Nebulan nodded, leaning forward and folding his hands together in front of his mouth.

Finally, the final figure came forth, standing from his seat and slamming his hands upon the table. His hair was short, jet black and his body of was athletic build. He wore a pair of futuristic, close-fitting sunglasses and a black, stylish costume with a cape.

"And you want to team up with the Xilian race?" he asked, rather rudely.

"Why yes, of course," she smiled.

"What do you want from us?" he asked, sitting back into his chair, crossing his arms, and placing his feet on the table.

"You control the great King Ghidorah and Monster X, powerful assets to our cause," Vorticia said.

"I see…" he thought.

"As well as advance military technology," she added.

"And what do you Vortaakians have to support this alliance?" the leader of the Space Hunter Nebulan wondered.

"We have a few monsters of our own, of course," she grinned.

"What do we have to gain from this?" the Simian leader asked.

"With our combined efforts," Vorticia began, "we will conquer Earth a divide its land and natural resources amongst us and make the humans and monsters that have defeated us in the past pay for what they've done!"

Without a second thought, the Xilian leader put forth his hand in a fist, "I and my people join your alliance!"

"As do mine," the Nebulan pledged.

"And the Simians do as well," the Black Hole alien agreed.

Vorticia cackled, "Very well, gentlemen. Now, without a moments delay, let us begin our attack on the planet Earth!"

An unusually peaceful day upon island of monsters, one giant lay within a clearing in the jungle thicket. It's name was Anguirus. It was a quadruped, reptilian monster with gray scales, a row of horizontal spikes upon its head and one on its nose, a long tail with spikes running down its length, and a large, spiked carapace protecting its entire backside. The monster suddenly awoke, opening its eyes and standing wearily. Paying no mind to its surroundings or what might of awoken him, he began to step towards the nearest water source for a drink.

"EEEEKIHUEEK!"

In a flash, the ancient monster was bombarded by blasts of yellow gravity beams raking back and forth across his carapace, causing him to instantly collapse to the ground. As the beams subsided, Anguirus shook off the blow and looked to the sky. The great dinosaur's worst fears were confirmed. Coming towards him from the sky was a huge, three-headed, golden dragon. With two huge, bat-like wings, two thick legs, and two tails; it was the legendary space monster, the King of Terror, King Ghidorah.

Anguirus reacted as fast as he could, standing up and ready to face the great space dragon; however, another blast of Ghidorah's gravity beams from its three mouths sent him to the ground again. The carapaced monster cried out in anguish as the beams blasted over his body. As the attack stopped, Ghidorah descended upon his quadruped foe, landing onto of him. Allowing its full wait down on the monster, it crushed the downed Anguirus into the Earth. Anguirus cried out once more as the pressure of the gold dragon's enormous weight pushed him into the dirt. To add to his assault, King Ghidorah lifted his tails and began to smash them down upon Anguirus' skull, slamming his head into the ground repeatedly. Faint from the blows, Anguirus angered. He'd experienced brutal attacks from Ghidorah in the past and he wasn't about to suffer furious beatings from this monster anymore. With a clever tilt of the head, Anguirus latched his powerful jaw tightly on one of Ghidorah's tails. The dragon shrieked out in pain, but more so in surprise. With an incredible feat of strength, Anguirus stood with Ghidorah still perched upon his carapace and flung him by his tail to the ground before him. Landing on his back, Ghidorah was defenseless, giving Anguirus an opportunity to strike. Jumping upon the dragon and crushing him under his own weight, he began to wildly claw and bite; tearing a few scales from Ghidorah's chest and snapping wildly at his long necks. Though little he could do in retaliation, Ghidorah managed to latch onto Anguirus' shoulder with his left head. It was to no avail, Anguirus was unaffected and he continued his furious attack.

A powerful blow knocked Anguirus from atop King Ghidorah, flinging him to the ground. As Anguirus hit the dirt, he quickly analyzed what had hit him; it was a very similar feeling, obviously gravity beams. (Though weaker than King Ghidorah's.) He looked upon, not to far on the other side of Ghidorah stood a slick, black, skeletal monster. It had a long, whip-like tail with two ends and an elongated head; with what almost looked like two smaller heads on its shoulders. It was the Xilian beast from Planet X… Monster X.

Anguirus got to his feet, watching as King Ghidorah stood himself. Though not severely outnumbered, he was severely outmatched. As Ghidorah took his stand beside Monster X, Anguirus bravely stood his ground. The ancient dinosaur could only hope he could hold his own against the two, at least in time for some sort of back-up to arrive. Luckily, Anguirus didn't have to wait long.

A concentrated red blast of energy blasted over the two alien monsters, who reacted with a mix of confusion and pain. As the monster pasted over them a gale force wind knocked them both to the ground. The creature then turned and landed beside Anguirus. It was a pterodactyl-like monster. It was brown and had three horns on its head, two curving back, one curving forward. Its beak was sharp and its wings were large. A sort of scaly carapace covered its stomach. Armed with powerful talons and a thick tail, Rodan had arrived to even the odds.

Ghidorah and Monster X rightened themselves, ready for battle. The two teams of opposing monsters eyed each other feverishly, ready to strike. Anguirus let out a roar and the opposing monsters charged one another. As King Ghidorah took to the sky, Rodan followed the dragon into the air; leaving Anguirus and Monster X one-on-one. Anguirus attempted to tackle Monster X with his horns on his head, only to have Monster X counter by grabbing his horns and tossing him. Anguirus landed hard. Before he could shake off the blow, Monster X charged. The spiky reptilian acted quick, opening his maw and unleashing a powerful roar which sound waves knocked Monster X back. Anguirus then attacked, rolling himself into a tight ball of spikes and crashing into Monster X full force. The hit sent both kaiju smashing through the jungle.

Rodan, meanwhile, had followed King Ghidorah some hundred meters into the air. The two monsters were locked in an aerial battle. The gold dragon let out a blast of his gravity beams, which raked over Rodan's wings. To Ghidorah's dismay, it had little to no effect. While Rodan wasn't the most powerful of monsters, he did have a great resistance to many different kaiju's energy attacks. Rodan easily withstood the onslaught and countered with a quick and sharp blast of his uranium heat beam. The attack caught Ghidorah off guard and sent him plummeting to the Earth below.

"Commander! Commander!" Miku shouted, "We have a serious situation with the monsters on Monster Island!"

The Commander rushed to her side, as red and blue lights flashed throughout the room, "What is it Miku!?"

"Both King Ghidorah and Monster X have attacked Monster Island and are currently locked in battle with Rodan and Anguirus," Miku explained, rapidly typing and bring up a visual of the monsters fighting.

"My god, why are King Ghidorah and Monster X here?" Tagaki wondered.

"This is why, commander," Miku said, bring up a visual from one of their satellites revealing the Vortaak Mothership just outside Earth's atmosphere.

"It's the Vortaak," Miku scowled.

"The Vortaak? That doesn't make any sense. The Xilians have control of those monsters…" Commander Tagaki pointed out.

"That's true, commander, but either way the monsters of the island our in danger. We have to send out a mech unit!" Miku argued.

"Very well, dispatch Kiryu and contact the pilot…" he ordered, staring at the screen.

Meanwhile, on Monster Island, the battling aliens and kaiju fight continued, but not without causing a considerable ruckus that shook through the island.

Though Anguirus was able to hold his own for a surprisingly long time with such a powerful monster, the dinosaur was beginning to lose his upper hand against Monster X. Anguirus had been pummeled into the ground by the Xilian beast, who was now approaching the downed monster to deliver a final blow.

The tide was turning on Rodan's battle with King Ghidorah as well. The ancient pterosaur had been driven to the ground and now forced to avoid furious blows from the dragon's gravity beams by ducking behind a large rock. King Ghidorah knew that the boulder that he hid behind wouldn't take much more, this battle was just about over.

As Monster X marched his way, Anguirus could only wait for his fate to befall him. Suddenly, a large mass crashed into Monster X's side, sending him flying and crashing into Ghidorah (who was only a few mere moments away from breaking through Rodan's makeshift shield). The monster that had done so only roared triumphantly. A long, slender dinosaur, with huge jaws, and a powerful tail. Like Anguirus and Rodan, he was the last of his kind, he was Gorosaurus. Having delivered a crushing kangaroo-kick to the alien monster, he'd arrived just in time. After giving a quick glance to Anguirus to assure he wasn't horribly harmed, he charged courageously towards the two aliens he were now attempting to stand.

Gorosaurus charged, delivering a powerful headbutt to Monster X's stomach, only to have the Xilian beast retaliate with a punch to the side of his head. Gorosaurus reeled back from the below, but cleverly countered by reversing the fall back from the attack and sweeping his tail at the alien. Monster X ducked under the swing, causing the dinosaur's powerful tail to smack into King Ghidorah's heads and knock him to the ground. Monster X reacted quick and tackled the monster and gripped his monstrous hands around its neck. Gorosaurus fought back by viciously clawing and slashing Monster X's abdomen and chest with his claws and feet.

Throwing themselves back into the fray, Rodan and Anguirus moved in. Taking to the sky, Rodan unleashed his uranium heat beam down on King Ghidorah in a volley. The gold dragon could only cry out and struggle to stand as the attacks rained down upon him. Meanwhile, Anguirus came up behind Monster X and exposed his spiky carapace in his direction. Gorosaurus, noticing this, planted his tail on the ground and forced the Xilian beast off with a kangaroo-kick; which sent Monster X falling back onto Anguirus' spiky shell, who simultaneously sent Monster X into the air and crashing to the ground some hundred meters away. Anguirus and Gorosaurus roared proudly, slapping their tails together in celebration of their collaboration. However, their victory couldn't be savored for long, almost instantly a shotgun-like laser blast to their backs sent the two dinosaurs face-first into the ground. A new monster had arrived.

A cybernetic, alien chimera, it was clad in black and silver. The creature sported three red wings on its back, a long tail that ended in a sort of futuristic mace, a buzz saw ran down its torso, it lacked hands or feet, but large, silver sickles took their place. Upon its head a large, forward curving spike that continued in a row down its back and tail. Its mouth was beaked with silver mandibles. It had but one, elongated, cybernetic eye that ran above its beaked mouth and a single, red ruby above it. An abomination of a demonic beast and a hell-bent machine. The metal demon's name was Gigan.

The arrival of alien cyborg had caught Rodan's attention. King Ghidorah noticed this and promptly made use of it and fired his gravity beams upon it. Gigan saw this, simultaneously firing a streamlined laser at the flying kaiju, which sent him falling to the ground in a nosedive. Rodan crashed into the already downed Gorosaurus and Anguirus. As Monster X rallied to Gigan's side, King Ghidorah took a stand opposite to them, surrounding the three downed dinosaurs. As if on the count of three, the aliens fired their individual beam attacks down upon the monsters; however, rather than aiming for them, they aimed for the ground below. This created a huge crater in the earth that the three monsters instantly collapsed into. The alien monsters seemingly began to cackle, letting out their roars and cries. The three aliens had something far worse than death by fire. Neither of the monsters within the crater were able to escape from it because of their combined weight holding them down. King Ghidorah, Gigan, and Monster X then turned, using their tails to send rocks and dirt into the crater to bury the three alive and suffocate the ancient reptiles. Anguirus, Rodan, and Gorosaurus could only cry out for help.

Which promptly arrived.

In a flash hundreds of heat seeking missiles rained down upon the three aliens, sending them rearing back. In the confusion, a silver beast came flying into Monster X and Gigan, shoulder-tackling them with such force as to send them both flying into the side of a mountain. With a swift turn, the mechanical creature fired of a powerful gold maser from its mouth, that sent Ghidorah to the ground.

This mechanical beast was clad in silver alloy. It was streamlined with thick, powerful legs, two mechanical talon-like claws, a long tail, with metal spines that traveled down its back. On its back, a rocket pack of sorts that sported two shoulder mounted rocket launchers. This wonder of man was a bio-engineered machine, created from the bones of a long lost destroyer of mankind. It had been recovered, given new life and living tissue restructure. Incased in a steel exoskeleton, it was man's greatest weapon against the evil monsters that inhabited the planet Earth. It was the latest incarnation of a mechanicalized, anti-Godzillasaurus weapon. Called Mechagodzilla III by profession, it was called Kiryu by man.

Within the cockpit of this steel monster, there was a voice.

"Pilot Akane Yashiro reporting: I have engaged kaiju designated 'GIGAN', 'MONSTER X', and 'GHIDORAH' in combat. Kaiju code numbered ONE and TWO have been launched by high speed collision into the mountainside, while THREE has been downed by double maser assault," she reported.

The figure upon the throne that controlled this mighty, metal beast removed her helmet. A rather young woman, she was adorned in grey and black military suit, which included boots, a vest, gloves, and a grey helmet with a black visor. Her eyes where brown and her hair was mid-length brown with a red tint. The designated pilot of Mechagodzilla III, Akane Yashiro.

Commander Tagaki's voice came over the intercom, "Yashiro, damage report?"

"Minimal, sir," Yashiro confirmed.

"Very good, Yashiro," Commander Tagaki said.

"Re-engaging monsters ONE, TWO, and THREE in combat," the pilot responded, before moving in for her second assault.

King Ghidorah had recovered from the double maser strike, just in time to witness Kiryu charging his way (Though the was little he could do about it anyway). Kiryu slammed into the dragon's torso with its shoulder, using its rocket pack to propel itself. Ghidorah could only wail as he was pushed down, hard. Kiryu's pilot responded quickly.

"Firing missiles!" the woman shouted.

Six rounds of rockets blasted from the cannons, while eight rounds of heat-seekers fired from the back of the apparatus. The six rockets collided instantly, creating a hell-blaze that engulfed Ghidorah, who could only scream in agony. The heat-seekers followed, further adding to the damage factor.

"Readying double maser assault!"

Red lights flashed throughout the cockpit. Kiryu instantly moved back, just barely evading a blast from the newly rejuvenated Gigan's laser. Gigan quickly followed up, firing laser after laser. Kiryu continued to evade the blasts using its rocket pack, eventually turning and flying over the ground in a 180 degree curve as Gigan fired. The misses of Gigan's lasers accumulated a rather large amount of dust, that began to cover the field. The cyborg finally abandoned his previous method of assault and fired his double-grappling cables from under his scythes. Kiryu managed to dodge one set, only to be caught by the other. Instantly, the first set retracted and fired again, hitting its target. One set of cables was wrapped around Kiryu's abdomen, while the other around its right arm. Gigan began to reel in its cables, rapidly beginning to spin the buzz saw in his torso.

Yashiro acted quick, "Fire masers!"

Kiryu's eyes lit up bright yellow, firing its masers from its mouth. The attack collided with Gigan's stomach, causing the saw blade to malfunction and slow to a stop. The alien hybrid could only screech at this. Monster X reentered the fray, leaping upon Gigan's cables and dashing gracefully and lithely down the wires, its claws stretched outwards. The Xilian beast reached Mechagodzilla III, delivering a acrobatic flip-kick to Kiryu's metal jaw. Kiryu let out a metallic roar, the attack shaking the cockpit. Monster X landed stylishly, following up immediately by clawing furiously at Kiryu's torso.

Sparks and flashes flew about the pilot's controls, "Shields down, Commander! Monster TWO's assault has left Kiryu with serious damage to chest armor!" Yashiro shouted amongst the chaos.

"Pull back!" the commander ordered.

"Yes, sir!" Yashiro complied.

Activating the rocket boosters, Kiryu took to the sky; dodging Monster X's assault. However, Gigan's cables were still wrapped around the iron beast. Kiryu reached its limit, being able to ascend no further due to the tension of the cyborg's cables. Kiryu averted all power to its thrusters. Tension on the wires increased. Gigan did not budge, holding its ground. Even with all power to its thrusters, Kiryu couldn't escape. The hybrid gave its cables a good pull, yanking Mechagodzilla III straight to the ground. Instantly, upon hitting the ground, both Gigan and Monster X fired their beams upon the downed mech. Kiryu was rocked and bombarded by the energy attacks, raising a living hell in the cockpit. Sparks and flames flew about the control center of Kiryu, making the pilot Akane Yashiro wince from the immense heat that was building. King Ghidorah arose, screaming as it let loose its triple gravity beams at the iron beast.

"Commander! Kiryu's armor is reaching its limit!" the pilot shouted over the intercom in distress.

"Yashiro!" Tagaki called over the intercom.

The ground beside Kiryu began to shake violently; however, the three aliens remained unaware of this. A magenta colored monster burst from the ground where Gorosaurus, Rodan, and Anguirus had been buried. Catching the three alien invaders off guard for a mere moment, the small dinosaur let loose a powerful flamethrower from its maw. This attack didn't do great harm to the monsters, but distracted them and stopped their combined beam assault. Yashiro noticed this as her time to retaliate. Kiryu instantly climbed to its feat, grabbing the two sets of cables still wrapped around him. With a powerful tug Kiryu sent Gigan flying its way, immediately following up with a sweeping punch from its right claw, that sent Gigan reeling and retracting its cables. The magenta monster zoomed out of its burrow, headbutting Monster X in the stomach before dashing away from it and perching itself on a ledge of the near by mountainside. Gorosaurus followed from the burrow, clawing its way out and crashing into Monster X with a kangaroo-kick, knocking the Xilian beast back. Anguirus let out a roar as he reemerged, while Rodan ripped through the dirt and took to the skies. As Rodan took to the sky, he fired a uranium heat beam into Ghidorah's chest, temporarily downing the space dragon.

Kiryu looked to the mountain, where the Yamato Guardian of Earth sat.

"Akane Yashiro reporting: Baragon has entered the conflict," the pilot of Mechagodzilla III stated.

Meanwhile, within the Global Defense Force HQ, kaiju specialist Kenji Miku and commander Tagaki frantically investigated the maniacal ploy that was coming into play.

"Commander, a message is coming through our monitors," Miku noticed.

"Let's see it," Tagaki ordered.

Miku brought up the screen. A visual of the Vortaakian Queen, Vorticia, the Simian leader, the M Space Hunter Nebulan leader, and the Xilian leader appeared, each standing beside one another.

"My god…" was all commander Tagaki could manage.

"You must be the Earth's Global Defense Force…" Vorticia smirked.

"We come to deliver," the Xilian grinned, "a message."

The Nebulan spoke, "We of the M Space Hunter Nebula."

"We Simians of the Black Hole."

"We of Planet X."

"And we the Vortaak have joined forces to invade, destroy, and conquer planet Earth…" the Vortaakian Queen grinned evilly.

"For decades we have attempted to take over your world, but our efforts have been thwarted by your monsters and you, the GDF," Vorticia expounded, "But no more!"

"This is our announcement, as well as our warning, that if you dare attempt to hinder our invasion we will wipe out your entire race. However, if you cooperate, we shall let you live… as our slaves," the Xilian laughed.

The others joined him in laughter, before the screen became black…

"So that's it…" Miku said to herself, "They're all working together… that's why king Ghidorah, Monster X, and Gigan have joined forces…"

"This is a grave situation indeed…" Commander Tagaki grimaced, lowering his head in thought.

Kiryu side-stepped a swing of Gigan's scythes, retaliating with a whip of its tail to the cyborg's beak. Gigan shook off the blow, giving off a shotgun burst of energy from his forehead. Kiryu brought up its arms to cover its face, dampening the blow. Mechagodzilla III countered, whipping out his twin electrified blades from his wrist. As Kiryu thrust forward, the alien hybrid locked blades with the mechanical Godzilla. The two forced their swords upon the other, each unyielding. Their resolve was to strong to allow themselves to be overpowered by the other. However, each had their own plan. In a flash, both Kiryu and Gigan let out a beam attack. Instantly the two beams clashed, the velocity of the attacks so great that it sent both cyborg monsters flying back. Gigan smashed into the mountainside, Kiryu landed in the trench from which its allies climbed from.

Meanwhile, Rodan and Gorosaurus continued their bout with the golden dragon. Ghidorah had taken to the skies and was now furiously unleashing bolt after bolt upon the two mutant dinosaurs, who were forced to take cover behind a nearby mountainside. Rodan and Gorosaurus could not hold out two much longer, with gravity bolts flying over their heads almost endlessly. The giant pterosaur suddenly had an idea, however. With that one split second Ghidorah used to take a breath during his onslaught, Rodan rose from behind the mountain and unleashed a sharp blast of uranium into the space dragon. Stunning the beast temporarily, Rodan and Gorosaurus acted quick. Latching his talons onto his shoulders, the mighty dinosaur lifted Gorosaurus into the air, zooming towards the still airborne Ghidorah. Gorosaurus lifted his feet, as Rodan let go. The giant creature delivered a powerful kick to Ghidorah's chest cavity, sending the great dragon to the ground with Gorosaurus atop him. The force of hitting the earth, along with the giant dinosaurs weight crashing upon him, sent the dragon into a daze. Gorosaurus struck, biting down hard on Ghidorah's left neck and rapidly clawing at its front with his mighty legs.

Monster X was left up to the combined efforts of Anguirus and Baragon, who struggled to keep the Xilian beast at bay. Though still reeling from the last attack, Anguirus viciously charged the alien again on all fours, intending to impale the alien on its head spikes. Instead, however, Monster X simply grappled the charging kaiju by his horns and with a single buck sent the creature flying backwards. Hitting the ground with a thud, Baragon followed up Anguirus' attack. Dashing at the alien, Monster X reacted with a swift whip of his double ended tail. Baragon, however, leapt over the attack rather acrobatically, flipping in midair and bringing his two back feet down upon Monster X's cranium. Knocking the alien to the ground, Baragon continued his assault by ferociously stomping the Xilian monster into the dirt. Monster X was more dumbfounded than harmed; the idea this mutant triceratops was besting him in the heat of battle? The great Monster X of the Xilians would not have this atrocity take place. The skeletal creature wrapped his thin fingers around Baragon's neck, standing to his full height while lifting the creature with little-to-no effort. The magenta monster could only struggle and attempt to loosen the alien's chokehold with his claws, to no avail. Monster X began to squeeze. Baragon could feel his breath shortening, but there was little he could do; as the pressure on his air pipe was quickly robbing him of energy and will to fight on. Baragon shut his yellow eyes…

Anguirus rose behind Monster X, sinking his powerful fangs as deep as possible into the Xilian beast's shoulder, drawing a substantial amount of crimson blood. The alien let out a bloodcurdling scream, letting go of Baragon's throat and dropping him to the ground. Monster X began to thrash wildly, as he attempted to reach back and pry the carapaced dinosaur from his shoulder. Though he struggled, the Xilian beast couldn't fully reach Anguirus and could only place his clawed hands atop the monster's head. Even as Monster X continued to flail, Anguirus would not submit. Baragon regained his strength, finding the determined Anguirus with his teeth sunk deep into Monster X. Baragon gave out a roar. The spiky monster recognized this. Anguirus planted his feet and held down Monster X's arms to his side. The Xilian beast was confused by this, until his gaze fell upon the charging Baragon. Monster X's eye lids lowered, he had enough. The Xilian beast unleashed a volley of gravity beams upon the charging creature, sending the mutated triceratops flying back. With renewed strength, Monster X gripped tightly onto Anguirus' horn, ripping his teeth from his flesh in a gruesome display of gore, before throwing the mutated ankylosaur over his shoulder. With a good toss, the Xilian beast sent Anguirus flying at his ally, Baragon, causing him to crash violently atop him (Luckily, Anguirus landed upon his belly, his spiked carapace could have easily pierced Baragon's flesh with such force). The alien angrily crept towards his foes to seal their fate.

A shimmering blue ray suddenly crossed Monster X's path, coming between the Xilian beast and the downed dinosaurs. This also caught the attention of King Ghidorah and Gigan, who stopped their battles with Rodan, Gorosaurus, and Kiryu respectively. Would stood no more than a few hundred meters from the alien tri-force was a green Tyrannosaur-like dinosaur. It stood at about sixty meters, was covered in a grey-green scaly hide, a thick, powerful tail, and three major rows of underdeveloped, maple leaf-shaped spines that ran all the way down his back. This was not the King of Monsters, but it was something far more frightening; his offspring…
