Chapter 3: I am Sorry
"Hey aunty, Mothra, Battra!" Jr. shouted to them and ran to Mothra. "Jr!" Mothra briefly picked up Jr., she was a lot taller than he was. Meanwhile, Godzilla packed the items from the shopping cart onto the assembly line. The cashier looked at the Kaijus confused, but did his job.
Meanwhile, Jr. began talking to Mothra and Battra. "What are you doing here?" "Oh we are just on a little stopover, Battra wanted to get even a pack of chips." "I was still hungry." Battra muttered as she put some chips in her mouth.
"Yeah I mean what are you doing here? In Sanjo? "" Oh that. We're looking for Alice. " "What?" Godzilla intervened, he had now paid, and packed everything back in. "What happened to him?" "Alice apparently argued with Ghidorah. She asked the Rodan if he could fly her away from Monster Island, now Ghidorah is looking for her because Alice did not say anything, and Rodan keeps his mouth shut, even if he should have opened his beak ... .. "" Why? " Jr. asked with an uncertain look.
"Because the idiot Ghidorah had said nothing and first got a beating from him." "More than that." Mothra corrected Battra. "He had a few broken bones, and a slight internal bleeding, but Kiryu has treated him, he is getting better."
Godzilla sighed, blaming himself somehow. "Dad? What is? "" Oh, I just think it was a good idea to move away from Monster Island. " "Oh, do not worry, you could have prevented it now. Besides, that can happen to anyone. "Battra said with a slight grin as Godzilla grabbed the bags in bags to carry them." Let me help you. " "No, that's Mothra, thank you." "No, at least the one bag." Mothra took one and helped Jr. and Godzilla carry it home.
Jr. responded to Battras statement. "So you think it's normal to almost walk around?" "Jr. you're just 12 years old, even disciples in Kaiju, we grew up quite different from you, we had to fight through a lot." "You were completely different in the past, too." "Not necessarily, the character of a being never changes." "That's where Battra is right." Mothra agreed with her sister, which was rather rare.
"May we carry the stuff home to you?" "Gladly, come with us, Zoe will be happy." "I'm not so sure, Ghidorah is still looking for Alice, and it would be better for him-" "He should be patient, Alice is an adult, strong woman who can take good care of herself. But I'll have to talk to Ghidorah myself. " Godzilla cracked his fingers to demonstrate "talking."
Suddenly the weather began to change very much, a small storm front spread, it began to snow heavily. The small group looked around, Jr. began to tremble, it was very cold. "We should get out fast, Jr. is more prone to cold." "D-Dad, it's okay." "Who believes it, go
come on."
The group went faster now, they were soon there. Mothra noticed that more and more snow was gathering on Jr., like many crystals falling down on him and depositing between his back spines. , "Come Jr." "W-what?" Mothra pulled Jr. to her and her arm around himso he would not feel so cold. Her left wing also slightly protected Jr. from the cold.
Battra and Godzilla walked in front of the two. "Hey Godzilla, does not this storm look a bit strange?" "What do you mean?" "It came so fast, and unexpectedly." "Weather is sometimes moody, we'll be there soon, barely 200 yards, I think." "You think?" "Yes I do not see so well here with the many snow."
Godzilla tried to orientate himself better at the environment. After just under 150 meters you could finally see at least a few lights. "We'll be right there, who wants a small race?" "What's that Godzilla, Jr. freezes in the cold!" Mothra said sternly. "He's not the only one." Battra made a blunt comment, but Godzilla knew how to lure Jr. into something. "The first to arrive gets hot cocoa, or something similar." Jr. pricked his ears and immediately ran off. "Hey wait Jr!" "Sorry Aunt Mothra, the man just knows me."
Now Mothra Jr. was running after them, and Battra and Godzilla were running rather slower. "Like the father so the son, hihi." "What?" Godzilla looked at Battra rather annoyed. "What? I'm right, I mean, Mothra does not love Jr. or somehow in a way, no, actually, but more in some kind of friendship, and she takes care- " "Battra what's going on?" Battra stopped short. She looked a bit desperate, she was looking for an answer. But apparently she did not find any, and just passed stump and commentless Godzilla.
Godzilla was a bit surprised, he had recognized that Battra wanted to hide something, but he had not thought to see Battra once, that she seemed somehow desperate. He caught up with Battra for a moment to ask her again. "Battra, what happened?" "Let's talk inside, I'm too cold out here." "How you mean."
Alice and Zoe were actually almost done with breakfast. Only Zoe was worried, the snow was getting heavier, and the two were still not back, Jr. could get sick in the cold out there. He had not taken more than his cap.
"Is something Zoe?" "Oh, just the weather, I'm worried, the boys are not back yet." "Do not worry, they're fine, I mean it's Godzilla, that little bit of snow does not hurt him." "But Jr. he's not as resistant as Godzilla, he's still a kid, my kid."
Then her little conversation became a knock on the door, followed by a childish question as to who was there. Zoe went to the door and opened it, Jr. stood trembling with the arms around him in front of the door. It was pretty snowy, so a lot of snow came in at the door. "Jr where is Godzilla?" "He stayed behind with Battra and Mothra." "Wait Moth-" "Hey Zoe!" Suddenly Jr looked backwards, Mothra ran towards the two, and a bit further he could already see Godzilla and Battra.
"Zoe nice to you WUAH!" Mothra was a bit too fast
and now slipped slightly icy path to the door, and a lot on her back, and bumping his head.
"Mothra!" Zoe ran to her to help her up but did not like to slip out herself.
While Zoe assisted Mothra, Godzilla and Battra were approaching. Jr. thought it best to go inside.
"Godzilla and Battra ran to Zoe and Mothra, who just got up. "Mothra are you alright?" "Yeah thank you, ugh." Zoe left Mothra on her own. "I'm not so sure about that, Sister, you hit your head pretty hard." "No, go, believe me, AH!" Mothra could not keep his balance after the blow and slipped again. Again she slammed her head on the floor. Her eyes turned black and she called for help when she could no longer see anything.
"Sister calm down!" "How if I can not see anything?" Mothra screamed as the snow fell on her and caught her in her gaze and hair. "I will not clean it when it gets wet. The snow will melt right away. "Godzilla thought of what he should do, the Mothra struck for some reason so that Zoe and Battra could not really help her, but he could easily take the few light strokes away and put his hand on Mothras Eyes and somehow she calmed down because of that.
"Just think I'd shut your eyes, okay?" "Yeah okay." Zeo looked over at Godzilla and he shrugged. Battra leaned slightly over to Zoes and whispered to her. "That does not make you jealous?" Zoe only shook his head in confusion, why should she.
"Okay, I'll pick you up, at three." "Wait a minute?" „Three." And Godzilla picked Mothra up with his arms while she was just blindfolded, Mothra crossed her arms and seemed to make it more involuntary, and the small group went inside.
"Hard to believe, she would have begged earlier, now she's almost against it." Giggled Battra, Zoe only smiled in agreement.
Godzilla carried Mothra into the house, Zoe closed the door behind them, and as expected the snow melted at Allen. "Take off your clothes that you can take off, then you do not have to clean up so much here." "That's what you're saying just to keep you from cleaning up." Zoe grinned over to Godzilla.
Godzilla places Mothra on a small bench you stood there and helped her to rest on his shoulder.
Battra and Zoe took off their shoes, and Battra and Zog removed a black jacket that had been on. She put her aside and apparently changed her look. The last time Zoe saw her, she had some kind of insect chitin armor, as it was adapted to her Kaiju form.
But this time she had a more human form. She had black and gold Harre, a leather jacket with the red, yellow flashes of her wings, a relatively tight gray shirt, also tight black shorts and a pair of black boots. She probably looked very attractive to most men or guys, it did not really suit the weather. Zoe somehow had the feeling that it was intended.
Meanwhile, Godzilla Mothra helped himself to change. He pulled off her shoes like a toddler, crossing her arms. Godzilla had to giggle somehow, and helped her take off her coat, she had her normal Kaiju clothes on. But when Mothra wanted to appear, she screamed in pain, her leg sprained.
"You two go to the kitchen, I'll help her up." "No, I can go!" Mothra contradicted. "Sure, and I'm Santa."
"I've already had breakfast, come on Battra."
Battra and Zoe went to the kitchen, where Alice was chatting with Godzilla Jr. happily.
"Ah, I see you and Aunt Alice are already talking right now." "Yes we are. Oh Battra, are you having breakfast with us? "" Yes, why not? "
Alice starts to Battra meanwhile. "What are you doing here?" "Ah, Alice, there you are!" "What do you mean?" "We are looking for you, actually, almost everyone is looking for you."
Zoe thought it would be a good idea to get the dining room into the living room, where they often had breakfast. "Come with Jr. Help me get the food in." "Okay."
Jr. and Zoe took the food and went into the living room, while Alice and Battra talked something out.
"What do you mean, everyone is looking for me?" "That all Kaijus on Monsterisland are looking for you, some are still on the island, a few are, including Mothra and me, looking for you everywhere. Ghidorah was desperately begging everyone, you should have seen him, he almost cried. I figured he deserved it, because he pretty much beat up Rodan and- ""He hurt him? "Battra grinned. "Rodan beat up."
"Is Rodan doing well?" "Well, he had it getting worse. He just wanted to say where you are, Ghidorah was angry, he was worried about you. "Alice put her hands over her face and hoped that Battra did not see her tears. But Battra noticed it, and only rolled her eyes, which Alice had to hide.
"I cursed him and run away from him, but he was just confused." "Alice, please, you both made mistakes, so you do not have to cry." Alice took her hands away, wiping away the tears, and glared at Battra.
"Did I say anything?" "Yes, a little more compassion would be nice." Battra shrugged and went into the living room.
Alice was kind of angry with Battra, though she could not really help it. Battra was not one who was open to her feelings, or felt strong empathy for someone, she did not care much about it. No matter who hurt himself, no matter if two loved each other.
Alice was about to scold her, but then Godzilla, with Mothra in her arms, passed her.
"Hi Alice, what are you doing here?" "Long story." Mothra tried to turn her head in the direction of Alice, even if she did not see her. "Alice, we have you-" "I know, Battra told me. But short question what do you two do? "
Alice looked at the two very confused. Mothra only crossed her arms while Godzilla tried not to laugh. "She fell down and sprained her leg, and just can not see anything." "Oh god, Mothra everything allright?" Alice asked worriedly. "Does it look like that?" She asked sarcastic Alice.
Meanwhile, Tashi went to Godzilla and stroked his left leg. "Hello Tashi, come on, we'll have breakfast soon. Alice do you want too? "" Yes, gladly. "
Alice came into the living room, where Battra, Zoe, and Jr. were already sitting at the table. Godzilla placed Mothra next to Jr. and then went back to hunt Maya. Alice sits next to Zoe, and starts talking to her and Battra a little.
Meanwhile, Jr. took a bowl of his favorite muesli and started to eat. "Ehm Jr. can you help me?" Mothra asked softly, "Huh?" "I can not see anything, maybe you can help me with the food?" "Eh okay." Both were a little embarrassed by the Jr. had to feed Mothra.
Meanwhile, Godzilla came down with Maya. She rubbed her eyes and sat down in her usual place next to Jr. (Left is on Mothra, Maya on the right, Battra in the middle, and Zoe, Alice, and Godzilla across from the others.)
Maya had to realize once briefly that her Kaiju friends were there. "People? What are you doing here? "" Long story. " Grinning Battra. "I have time."
More than an hour went by, the breakfast was more like brunch, it was almost noon, and the friends just talked. Battra, however, decided to go straight to the sofa. She put her legs on the armrest and chilled a round first. Zoe got up and sat on the chair next to it and turned on the TV. Meanwhile, Godzilla and Alice are still talking about Mothra could see again and wanted to clear the things, but she forgot that her leg was still sprained.
Godzilla beckoned to Alice and carried the dishes into the kitchen, meanwhile Mothra wanted to talk to Maya while Jr. sat down next to Zoe's chair and played with Tashi sitting next to her.
"And Maya, how are you at school, any sweet boys where you blush, Maya?" But Maya did not react and looked over at Battra, Mothra did not notice anything and waved her hand in front of Maya's face, "huh, what did you say ? " Asked Maya. Mothra sighed and started to drive, but then a knock on the door was heard.
"Who the hell is out there in the weather?" Battra asked, it was almost a blizzard, the TV reception was partially gone, and it was snowing heavily, you probably could not see 4 meters away.
"I'll open!" Godzilla shouted.
He passed Alice, through the kitchen into the corridor and the door. He took the key and unlocked it, and when he opened it, the icy wind came over, followed by snow, which hit him a lot.
But before him he saw a creature, she was as tall as himself, had two wings and apparently two long arms, and had a long neck. She was completely snowy and icy, so that Godzilla could not recognize. She shook Stark, but did not say a word, while Godzilla's snow caught in his face much in his head. But when the creature opened its mouth and saw several sharp teeth, he slammed the door.
He did not want to fight, not in his house.
"What's Godzilla?" Zoe had come to him next to Alice, who was also looking confused.
"There is something where I have no idea what it is, but it does not look kind." Zoe got a rather queasy feeling, but she was also more uncertain about her children. "Alice, please go to the others, and take care of Jr. and Maya. " Alice nodded and went into the living room.
Zoe hesitated for a moment, but then she went to the door and looked through the peephole. She also saw the snowy creature shivering there. Suddenly the creature reached out her right arm and went with it to the spy ... Wait, that was no arm! It had a golden eye.
"Godzilla, you dummy, this is Ghidorah!" Called Zoe Alice heard it while playing with Jr. and Tashi, which Zoe said just like any other, her breath bleeding, she ran cold over her back, she fell into Panic.
"Alice calm down." Mothra walked over to her and almost to her shoulder, and Jr. and Tashi looked at her worriedly, "Aunt Alice what's up?" "E-He's going to be so mad, he's going to hate me, I hurt him, I'm-" "Alice, calm down. He hurt you too. Okay, he'll understand that, but you need to calm down. "Mothra tried to be as gentle as possible, and Alice took a deep breath, but when she heard the door open, she ran behind the sofa, where Battra was just lay and hid there.
Battra had not noticed, she just slept on the sofa with her arms crossed, and just noticedt a little something.
Godzilla and Zoe let Ghidorah in, he was almost frozen, Completely frozen and snowed.
"Ghidorah, you really flew in the weather?" Zoe asked him, "Not quite, I fell into the sea a few miles off Sanjo, and had to swim through it when I was in the country, the water froze on me."
Godzilla was astonished that Ghidorah was doing all this to find Alice. Ghidorah was unable to swim particularly well, nor was he so well protected against the cold.
"You made it through pretty much just to find Alice." Ghidorah looked over at Zoe, with one look that seemed somehow worried while he was still thawing. "How do you know that?" "Ehm, Mothra and Battra came over and told us." "They are here too?" "Yes, do you want to go to the living room?"
Alice heard everything. She heard her friend, whom she had not seen in so long, lie to her. No, she did not want that anymore. She got up and went into the hallway while Mothra tried to stop her. But she did not change her mind.
Ghidorah shook down ice that was gathering on his wing, it felt like a glacier. He was just thanking Zoe as Godzilla glanced over at Alice and gestured for her to disappear. But she completely ignored it, and as Ghidorah turned from Zoe to Alice, her breath almost stopped. He looked at her, with his three heads, everyone looked somehow worried.
"Ghidorah I'm sorry-" But she did not finish the sentence, she ran to Ghidorah and hugged him as hard as she could. It threw him back slightly, but Alice held him very tightly.
She felt his scales cold and wet with the snow, and how his three heads snaked around her, hugging her as well.
Zoe and Godzilla left the room so as not to disturb the two.
"Ghidorah I'm sorry." "No, I'm sorry, I should not have been so hard, I was an asshole, I was like Nicolas."
Alice shook her head. "No you were not, he may be an asshole, yet I love him as a sister. But you are not, you just did not know how to handle it. I'm sorry I should not have run away." "But I hurt Rodan because of you. " "You were angry because you worried about me, it was my fault, I should have known."
She hugged him for some time, then took his middle head and kissed him.
Godzilla Jr. stood in front of the corridor and saw the two. "Buh, yuck." "Jr, go away." Maya grabbed him by the collar.
Ghidorah and Alice had a good time together, until the snow slowed in the evening and they had to leave.
Mothra, Battra, Ghidorah and Alice bid farewell. "It was great that we should do it more often!" Alice still said to Zoe before she stepped onto Ghidorah's Kaiju form. Mothra sat down on her Kaiju sister and waved goodbye to Godzilla and his family.
When they had flown for some time, Alice came up with an idea. "Guys, I have an idea …"
