Chapter 2
Tokyo, Japan
2014

Ishiro and Vivienne stood from their seats and made their way out of the jet and onto the airstrip of the Tokyo International Airport. The strip was barren save for them, the jet and a few other people. It was obvious that Japan's government had shut down the airport in response of what had happened with the flying MUTO and over in the states. Ishiro was thankful for this since he wanted to keep out of the public eye until he could scrape up a statement that he could make at a press conference. He knew that everything was out there now, there was no covering this up. It was too big and people died in these events.

"Sensei," Vivienne called, grabbing his attention and making him look at her. She nodded to the care that had just pulled up. "Our ride is here."

Ishiro nodded and made his way to the black vehicle before opening the back door for his assistant, allowing her to get settled inside before shutting the car door and went around to the other side, getting in himself.

Once the two were settled in, the driver put the car into gear and found his way onto the road and headed off towards where the MONARCH building was. Vivienne took this time to take out her phone and began to check all of the social media sites she could think of. What she saw were not good in the slightest.

"We won't be able to be left in peace for quite some time." She remarked, shaking her head. Ishiro looked over at her questionably before leaning over and looked at her phone. On the screen he could see twitter and most tweets were different view points of Godzilla, regaining his strength in the aftermath of the battle. There were captions above the pictures and videos, most voicing their disbelief. He watched as his assistance's thumb swiped up, scrolling down through the tweets before it stopped at a rather angry tweet, saying all types of things about MONARCH and wanted it to burn to the ground, preaching how it was their fault that all of this happened.

"It would appear so." the man sighed.

"What should we do?"

Ishiro was silent for a moment, taking each word in before leaning back in his seat. "I'm not sure. I suppose we should get a statement out as soon as possible."

His assistant nodded before putting her phone down on her lap. "I suppose you want to have a meeting about this as well?"

"That would be wise."

"I'll schedule one as soon as possible."

Ishiro nodded before looking forward once more, his mind whirling around what he could possibly say. He felt that others being outraged were justified. It was MONARCH's job to contain the male MUTO and they couldn't. They-he- underestimated the creature, the one thing he promised to never do, thinking that electrocuting it would put an end to it so easily. He knew that he had to be held responsible to this and that is what he will do when he make an appearance at a press conference. If people only see him as the person that had caused this mess, well, that was fine by him. He'll take the fall. Better him than anyone else, especially Vivienne. That's how he saw that anyways.

His musings got cut short when they pulled up to a large building that looked like any old, large building with fifty-four floors. That wasn't the case, of course.

Ishiro slipped out of the car once it stopped, followed by Vivienne. They both shut their doors and made there way through the security and was finally able to make it to his office.

"Call the tracking team. Have them try and pinpoint where Gojira is." Ishiro told her as he sat in his office chair, slipping his glasses out from his inner pocket on his jacket. "And get a date for the meeting ready."

Vivienne bowed and he watched as she walked out of the room. He turned to the company computer and booted it up as he slipped on his glasses. He logged in once it was booted up and quickly went on chrome, clicking the search bar.

Giant monsters in San Fran/

Links filled the screen and he clicked on a random one.

Three Monsters Attack California!
By Jason Anderson

I was right there on the Golden Gate Bridge when the first one, Godzilla or some stupid name like that, and it plowed right through the bridge and I could see hundreds of cars flying through the air. It was a frightening sight to witness! I was lucky enough to be far enough away from that specific section so I only, really felt it. Now, I knew about the flying one but I didn't know about the one that was from Nevada. I saw the news footage about the aftermath and I feel bad for everyone that got caught in the middle of that shit storm. I also heard about the whole MONARCH shit. Whoever's the head of that is a idiot. I mean come on, if you knew about giant monsters, than you should tell the damn world! It's common sense! This is why I don't trust the government.

Ishiro stopped reading and went back to the results, clicking on another one before reading that. This went on for a few hours before he X'd chrome out and leaned back in his chair, pulling his glasses off and pinched the bridge of his nose. He had his work cut out for him, it seemed.

A knock caught his attention and he looked up. Vivienne walked in a slit second later, carrying a mug that was slightly steaming. She walked over and set the mug down in front of him before straightened up. "I thought you would need some hot tea. The tracking team have been searching for him but he must have went down deep again. They will keep monitoring though."

Ishiro nodded. "And the meeting?"

"It will be next Monday around Ten in the morning."

"Thank you." he murmured, rubbing his eyes with his two fingers.

"You're already getting yourself stressed." Vivienne observed.

"I've been reading some things that people are saying. They aren't good."

"I wouldn't expect otherwise. Why don't you head home, you need to lay down at rest."

"I can't possibly do that. I still have things I need to do-"

"Sensei," she interrupted him. "Go. I know you and I know that you didn't get much sleep since the male MUTO broke out."

Ishiro stared at her for a long while before letting out a sigh and standing up. "Alright, alright."

He watched as she gave him a smile before he took a few sips of his tea that had slightly cold before he drained it. "If anything happens or if we got something-"

"Call you first thing. I know, don't worry."

He hesitated for a moment before walking past her and out of the office.

Maybe she was right.

Maybe this was something he needed.
