Beijing Flight 313
May 24 7:32 A.M.
White hazy clouds formed just below their aircraft as he stared out the window, holding his glass of water in his right hand teadily as the plane shook once more and with his free hand gripped the arm of the seat.
Flashes of two years ago played out in his head as he thought back to the monstrous pteradon Rodan that took to the skies and devastated so much.
"Sir?"
He turned his head finally noticing the flight attendant that was leaning over the next row and then she pleasantly asked again, "Do you need a refill?"
He looked down at his glass and nodded before answering, "This time something with a good kick to it."
She nodded taking the glass and then walked toward the back of the plane as he looked at his slumbering assistant next to him, wishing he too could try and rest.
It had been a long trip for both of them to attend this conference in China, but well worth it. It seemed that some of the Eastern countries were finally taking the information he had to say seriously, and the Japanese scientist knew that with their support the future of the Global Defense Force would only be brighter.
Serizawa looked up at the screen that was mounted on his side of the cabin, realizing a news bulletin from the south Atlantic was coming in and he reached into the seat basket in front of him to get out the headphones so that he could listen.
"...still unsure what might have provoked the attack, but for now the entire area is quarantined."
"And what about survivors Tom? I understand at least two or three lifeboats were found by both Florida Coast Guard and the Cuban Navy?"
"That's right Janice, a Major Chance Isthomer, Lieutenant Commander Royce and several Petty Officers managed to escape the Western Horizon during the assault. They are preparing to make statements to the press by lunch."
"Thank you again, for CNN that was Tom Turner and if you are just now joining us then we ate interrupting your normal broadcasting for an emergency bulletin from the Global Defense Force. Late yesterday evening, roughly around midnight the monster Godzilla was captured on satellite image devastating this BP oil rig near the Florida coastline, we have been covering the disaster for the past few hours since we first became aware of it and now we are finally receiving a statement from the US President himself."
Serizawa narrowed his eyes as Whitmore took the stage and camera flashed even as the man spoke stating, "Nothing but sorrow fills my heart at a moment like this, so careless. Such brutal viciousness, it is something that we cannot ignore any longer. Which is why as of this time, I have conferred with the chief executives of the GDF board to declare that Godzilla is to be considered our top priority. We cannot allow such tragedy to strike again."
Abruptly Ishiro felt a hand on his shoulder and the scientist looked up to see a man wearing a black suit with a thin dark blue tie standing there. The Japanese man was about to ask what the stranger wanted but when the man flashed his air marshall badge he knew immediately. Nudging his assistant, Serizawa allowed Vivienne to wake up and commented, "My dear I believe we are about to make an unscheduled stop."
The British woman looked at the American marshall in surprise and then the man walked up to the front of the plane to alert the Captain. "What is going on?" Graham asked to which Serizawa pointed toward the news reports and explained, "It would seem we have a new threat to deal with. One I have been dreading for quite some time..."
