Chapter 9 - The Plan
Godzilla came back to the Clearing. He had made a deal with Jigo, to help him kill the Forest Spirit so he would regain his height. He felt very guilty knowing he would betray his friends for his own selfish means, but then again, he would not have come here for nothing. Ashitaka came to Godzilla. "Where were you?" He asked. "I looked everywhere." Godzilla had told Ashitaka what happened with him before, but he wouldn't tell him about Jigo. "I went looking for San and Moro." He lied. "What are you doing here? I thought you doubted that you would rid yourself of your curse." Ashitaka nodded. "I did, but as I said, giving up will do nothing."
Meanwhile in IronTown, Lady Eboshi was watching her people work. "We need new guns!" She ordered. "Light enough for the girls to carry and powerful enough to kill our enemies!" One of the workers looked to Lady Eboshi. "My lady, these guns will not work against the new Forest Warrior, Godzilla." Lady Eboshi scoffed. "We have no need to worry about Godzilla or any Forest Gods. I have heard from a monk who is using him to kill the Forest Spirit for us in exchange for gold. He then wants to give it to the Emperor. Me and him are going to meet today."
An hour later, Jigo came to the entrance of IronTown. "He's here." A man said. "Open the gate!" The gate opened and Jigo came through. Lady Eboshi stood before him. "Greetings, Jigo. I hope that everything is going to plan." Jigo grinned. "Oh it is. I have met with Godzilla and we have a deal." Lady Eboshi gave an evil smile. "We will discuss everything this evening." Jigo nodded. "You haven't seen anything yet!" He then looked to the sky. "You can come now." Jigo said in an animalistic language. With that, from out of nowhere, a 12 foot Golden, Three Headed Dragon flew down next to Jigo. Lady Eboshi and the rest of IronTown gasped. "So" The three-Headed Dragon said in human language. "This is IronTown. What a miserable disgusting insect hive." Jigo turned to Lady Eboshi. "My lady, this is King Ghidorah. He, like Godzilla, was shrunk by the Great Forest Spirit. He has quite a history with Godzilla, and I'm sure he will be very helpful."
That evening, Lady Eboshi, Jigo, King Ghidorah and the rest of the humans were gathered around in IronTown. "Me and Godzilla will kill the Forest Spirit," Jigo spoke. "Godzilla believes that killing the Forest Spirit will take away his curse, but he couldn't be more wrong. I will take the Forest Spirit's head and gain the reward from the Emperor. Additionally, I will expect a reward from you, Lady Eboshi, for destroying the Forest." Lady Eboshi smerked. "Of course. But you are making one very severe mistake. When Godzilla realises you tricked him, he will kill you." Jigo turned to King Ghidorah. "That," King Ghidorah said. "is where I come in." Lady Eboshi looked to King Ghidorah. "You will kill Godzilla?" King Ghidorah grinned. "Godzilla and I have battled for years, but I am the more powerful. Even in this form, I am powerful enough to destroy all of you!" Lady Eboshi frowned. "I will kill Godzilla, the Wolf Girl, Ashitaka and the Wolves in the blink of an eye!" Lady Eboshi chuckled. "I see you are very confident. But what about the Boars? The Boars have returned to this land and they are in huge numbers." She looked to King Ghidorah and smerked at him. "Do you think you can kill all of them?!" King Ghidorah blasted a Gravity Beam from one of his three-heads. Even though it was not one of his most powerful shots, the beam hit Lady Eboshi in the chest and sent her flying back. The people of IronTown gasped. Lady Eboshi clutched her chest. "IF YOU DARE MOCK ME AGAIN, I'LL KILL YOU!" King Ghidorah bellowed. Lady Eboshi got to her feet and threw a sword at King Ghidorah, who simply knocked it to the side with his wing. He then flew to Eboshi and kicked her down. He then landed down before her and pinned her down with his foot. Lady Eboshi looked up to him with fear. King Ghidorah prepared to blast another Gravity Beam. He was going to finish off this foolish woman. "Enough! Stop it, Ghidorah!" Jigo yelled out. King Ghidorah looked to Jigo and growled. He released Lady Eboshi and flew to Jigo's side. A few woman helped Lady Eboshi to get up. "As I was going to say." Jigo said. "You and the rest of IronTown will finish off the Boars." Eboshi looked at him. "Just like that?" "Yes." Jigo replied. "You killed Nago didn't you. So get your men and woman, anyone who can fight, and lure them into a trap." Lady Eboshi stood tall. "Alright then, Jigo. I'll kill the Boars and pay you for killing the Forest Spirit. You will work with Godzilla to kill the Forest Spirit. King Ghidorah will kill Godzilla. The Forest will die and you will be payed by the Emperor. With the Forest dead, IronTown will become the richest land in the whole world." "Seems fair." Jigo nodded. "You're dismissed."
Jigo and King Ghidorah walked out of Irontown. "That went well." Jigo said. "We made our Agreement and everything shall go to plan. You will finally achieve your goal and kill Godzilla." King Ghidorah grinned. "Yes... and it will not stop there. You know what I'm talking about." Jigo looked to him. "We made a deal, Jigo, remember. I may no longer be 150 meters tall, but I am still powerful enough to kill armies f humans. I want Godzilla dead more than anyone else. We are the most bitter of enemies. But even after he dies, I will still not be completely satisfyed. I will kill the People of IronTown and take this mystical land as my own. The Realm of the Spirit of the Forest will be the Realm of King Ghidorah and I will kill every human who dares come near my land." Jigo nodded. "Yes, I know." "But because you have helped me." King Ghidorah continued. "I will let you leave my land, safely. But I will warn you to never come here again, for I will kill you." Jigo nodded, again. "Understood." King Ghidorah then laughed. "Soon this land will belong to me. Soon IronTown and the Forest will have burned to the ground. Godzilla, Princess Mononoke, the Forest and Lady Eboshi of IronTown have no idea what is coming!"
