Alright, time for Bagan to make his presence known to everyone. In this chapter there is also a hint to a later fic in this series, see if you can catch it. It should be noted that I took some liberties with Bagan's forms, like making Enjin's face looking like an Oni's in order to give him a more evil appearence, Gorilla's faces aren't very evil most of the time so that is why, we also have the first destruction in this fic by a kaiju, even if its a small amount.


Legend of the God Beasts

Lake Saiwa, 11:15 am;

A group of tourist stood on the shore of Lake Saiwa, a popular tourist spot several miles from Mt. Otake. This was just no different a day, with Mt. Otake off-limits for several days, this was the closest tourist attraction to it. Several people stood on the bank fishing, other sun bathing, kids waded nearby as well. Little did anyone know that across the lake in the woods was the ancient evil that the eruption had awakened from his centuries of imprisonment. Enjin Reijuu looked across the lake, his thirst was terrible, he hadn't had a drop of water for so long, if he wasn't a Kaiju it might of killed him. He wondered out of the forest to the shore and dipped his huge hands into the water and took huge scoops of water up into his tooth-filled maw. Though his body was ape-like, his face looked like a white mask with red lines on the corners and a tooth filled maw as well as dead eyes. This resembled a Japanese folklore, the Oni.

"Papa, look! Its King Kong!" said a little child, an American tourist, being more familiar with the kaiju that had been brought to New York City several decades ago, having sense been preserved in several major motion pictures.

The father shrugged this off, concentrating on his fishing. "Sure." he said, not taking his eyes off the red and white bobber but then heard several screams come from the crowd around him. He looked up and saw Enjin and yelled himself. He picked up his son and ran to his car, many others got the same idea. Enjin decided he didn't want this much attention yet. He dove into the water and swam downwards, his fur dissolving into his skin and his head elongating into a lizard-like head with a huge mouth with massive teeth and two long tusks as fins grew on the side of his head along with gills and six red spikes out the back of a now long neck. His arms became large legs with webbed feet, he back legs growing to become larger than his front but also gaining webbing between the feet and his tail extending and its tip turning into a large fin. His skin became light scales, except for his underbelly, which was greenish-yellow. He was now Mizu Reijuu, the Water God Beast. He swam along the bottom at high speeds.

Inamura Laboratory, 12 noon;

Inamura looked through his books, trying to match the picture with any of the myths. Akikuko caught something on a nearby TV that was showing a news report. "Everyone quiet!" exclaimed Akikuko, turning up the volume on the TV.

"Earlier today unconfirmed reports of a huge creature looking like a cross between an ape and a reptile on the west shore of Lake Saiwa. The authorities refuse to comment at this time until more information is known." said the anchorman.

"Say isn't that not very far from Mt. Otake?" asked Muraki, looking up from the book he was looking threw.

"Yes." said Radner, also looking threw the book.

"Think there might be a connection?" asked Akikuko to her father.

"I would have to believe so, after all, first a monster in the crater of Mt. Otake then another one several miles away only a few hours later isn't a stretch to believe its connected." said Inamura.

"Ah ha!" exclaimed Muraki. "I think I found it." he said, putting the book on a coffee table in front of them, on the page was three monsters, one a dragon-like creature, one an ape-like creature, and one a fish-like reptile monster. "Enjin Reijuu, the Ape God Beast." he said.

"Yes it fit's the description."

"Attention, this just in. 50 meters from Lake Saiwa a large lizard-like creature was just sighted by our news copter down a river from the lake." said the anchorwoman, the screen switching to Mizu swimming down a large river. The monster looked up at the news copter and inhaled a deep breath, the skin under his neck swelling. He then opened his mouth and spat out a powerful stream of boiling water at the copter, the screen turned to the test pattern screen with the words 'We are having technical difficulties' at the bottom.

"Hey look, that ones in here too!" said Muraki. "Mizu Reijuu, the Water God Beast."

"And look, this one." said Akikuko, pointing to the picture of the dragon-like monster in the book and the picture from Mt Otake. "This one is similar to the one taken at Mt. Otake."

"Yes, Doragon Reijuu, the Dragon God Beast."

"And look here, its says that all three of theses kaiju are actually the same monster." said Inamura. "They are all forms of a shape shifting monster named Bagan."

"So the Bagan came out of Mt. Otake as Doragon Reijuu, then appeared at Lake Saiwa as Enjin Reijuu, and then went down river as Mizu Reijuu." said Radner.

"He must have been hibernating inside the volcano and the eruption awakened him." said Akikuko.

"An amazing creature, unfortunately it also says Bagan is an evil monster that wants to destroy mankind." said Muraki.

"Yes, this is a dark day if Bagan has been awakened. I don't know how this could get much worse for Japan." said Inamura...


Well as most of you know, you never say 'I don't know how this could get worse' in a monster movie. Next up is the chapter this fic is named for, everyones favorite gigantic atomic ray breathing dinosaur! See you next time!
