Part 9

Godzilla clashed with Gigan with the last of his breath. He held Gigan's chainsaw arms as hard as he could, keeping them from his body. Gigan smiled and began forcing down on him. The chainsaws were inches from Godzilla's neck.

Suddenly, a breast cannon from Mothra hit Gigan from behind. He turned his head 180 degrees and fired an eye laser at Mothra, shooting her down.

When he looked back, Godzilla's mouth was glowing blue. Gigan's eye widened and he struggled to escape, but now Godzilla was holding onto him. The space kaiju could only close his eyes as Godzilla's heat beam struck him head on, blowing the cyborg's entire head off.

Godzilla let go of Gigan's arms. The headless cyborg leaned forward and crashed to the ground.

Daitoro cursed under his breath.

"You lose, Daitoro! You're not getting Japan today!" said Kenichi.

"Ah, you forget. The deal was if Godzilla loses, I get Japan," Daitoro said. "He has yet to win."

A red sphere appeared on Daitoro's screen. Just before he pressed the button, a gunshot went off. He looked down and saw a bullet hole in his chest, yellow blood seeping out. Another gunshot hit him in the head and he fell to the ground. Ken Yano stood not too far away with a smoking pistol in his hand.

With his dying breath, Daitoro pressed the button. Ken noticed and shot him in the head. Daitoro's body remained still, then he morphed into a giant cockroach. The others stared at him for a moment, then turned their heads at Godzilla.

Godzilla roared in victory, but the Shobijin looked worried. They looked across the sea at the island where Kiryu's waste was. It seemed to be expanding, rising out of the pool. As if something was inside it. A large figure burst of out the sludge and came soaring toward the city. It landed a short distance away from Godzilla in a blob. Something in the blob was moving. A large tentacle-like hand burst out of it.

Godzilla braced himself as another hand came out. Two glowing red spots emerged. They were eyes. A sludgy tail extended and a huge behemoth formed from the sludge. The red spots were really eyes. The monster blinked, then raised its head and gurgled loudly.

A chill went up Ken Yano's spine.

"…Hedorah," he said.

Godzilla roared in challenge and charged at Hedorah. The Smog Monster leapt up and landed near Mothra. Seeing her injured state, he slid his gelatinous form over her, coating her once beautiful wings with toxic sludge.

Godzilla fired his heat beam, which Hedorah countered with a crimson eye beam. When the smoke cleared, Hedorah was charging at Godzilla. He slammed into him, knocking him down. Hedorah began dumping sludge and grime all over Godzilla. Snarling in fury, Godzilla lunged forward and jammed his fist in Hedorah's body. Hedorah looked at Godzilla and hit him with a crimson eye beam. He fell to the ground in pain. The Smog Monster resumed coating Godzilla in toxic sludge. Godzilla howled in agony. Hedorah kept burying him in waste.

"This is what Omega Kiryu has created. Just like before," said Ken.

"We've walked from one disaster into another," said Kenichi.

Godzilla's roars echoed across the city. They reached every end of Tokyo. The force of it blew the trees in Shinjuku Gyoen. The frozen statue was beginning to stir. The ice was cracking. Chunks of it began falling off. The piece covering Anguirus' left eye fell, and he looked around, then his pupil shrunk. With a mighty roar, Anguirus burst out of the ice. He shook the frost off of his back, then curled into a ball, rolling toward the battlefield.

"The ice must've frozen the cement covering Anguirus! He's free!" said Shun excitedly.

Anguirus rolled into the city. Godzilla, who was grappling with Hedorah, noticed him, and wrestled Hedorah so he was facing Anguirus. The tenacious ankylosaur slammed into Hedorah spikes first. The Smog Monster gurgled loudly in pain. Godzilla let go of him and slammed his fist into Hedorah's eye while Anguirus jumped backwards at him. Hedorah desperately tried to hold back the two kaiju, but wasn't fast enough, taking hit after hit.

Finally, Omega Kiryu's repairs were complete. The mechanics and medics ran from the scene as the giant robot stood once again. Fortunately for the, Godzilla, Anguirus, and Hedorah were all in one spot. They were in firing range.

"Prepare to fire Oxygen Destroyer," said Akane Yashiro.

Omega Kiryu's chest plates opened and a green orb appeared. It split open and a purple light began to form. It didn't take long for the light to grow immensely.

"This is extremely risky, but we're gonna have to try," thought Akane.

"Fire!"

A purple beam of energy launched out of the green orb right at Godzilla. It was inches away from the King of Monsters. Everyone watching began to shake and sweat anxiously.

Seconds before it hit Godzilla, a massive winged figure flew in front of it. The beam hit the creature directly. A pink lightning coursed through its body. The winged monster hit the ground hard and skidded through the streets. Kiryu's eye-lights managed to catch a glimpse of Rodan just before his body was reduced to nothing but bones in a flash of purple light.

"DAMN it! We missed!" shouted the chest pilot.

"We can't risk using it again or we'll look like the bad guys!" said another.

"Switch to Hyper Maser Cannon!" Akane ordered.

Omega Kiryu's chest closed again then opened with the maser cannon pointing. The maser blast was launched as Godzilla and Anguirus dove out of the way. The attack hit Hedorah, his eyes widening and body expanding as he exploded into a rainstorm of sludge.

Godzilla charged at Kiryu again and slammed into his leg. Kiryu kicked Godzilla back to the ground. Anguirus jumped into the air and hit Kiryu's head with his spikes. The robot stumbled forward, but then turned and knocked Anguirus back down.

As usual, Anguirus got back up immediately and ferociously attacked Kiryu from behind. After punching Godzilla back down, Omega Kiryu hit Anguirus with a maser beam. Anguirus ran further away, then rolled into a ball. With incredible momentum, he spun faster and faster until he was moving too fast for anyone to see. Kiryu fired another maser beam but Anguirus' carapace shrugged it off.

Godzilla hit Omega Kiryu with a heat beam from behind, pushing him forward, giving Anguirus the opportunity to slam into his chest at Mach Speed. The giant robot toppled to the ground with a mighty crash. Godzilla and Anguirus surrounded him, roaring in challenge. Omega Kiryu's rocket thrusters ignited and he rose from the ground. Godzilla ran at him again, but Kiryu swung his massive tail and hit Godzilla in the side, sending him careening into the sea. Anguirus jumped at Kiryu again, but was met with an aerial headbutt which forced him back down. Before Anguirus could recover, Kiryu kicked him in the stomach and sent him flying into the air, crashing down onto a cargo ship, exploding around him.

Anguirus was beginning to recover when he heard something coming from the water. He turned and saw the massive Mothra larvae swimming towards them. He paid it no heed and slowly crawled back into the battlefield. The larvae looked around, then saw its mother, beaten, bruised, mutilated, and caked with sludge. It slithered toward her, chirping anxiously. Mothra raised her head and cried softly.

"Mothra's child has arrived," said the Shobijin.

"Oh god, I feel so sorry for it," said Shun. "Seeing its mother like this."

The larvae twittered at Mothra. The butterfly let out one final cry, and its blue eyes darkened. She wasn't moving. The larvae turned its head upwards and cried at the heavens.

Then its eyes turned red. It turned and slithered toward the battlefield. Godzilla and Anguirus had both returned to fight, but Omega Kiryu had the upper hand. He knocked them both down at every chance it had. Just then, a stream of web-like fluid began raining down on it. It whirled around and saw the Mothra larvae spraying its webbing at it. It began moving toward her, not noticing the two daikaiju behind it. Godzilla rushed forward and crashed into Kiryu's leg while Anguirus jumped up and slammed his spikes into Kiryu's back. The giant robot desperately tried to regain its balance, but a strike from Godzilla's heat beam knocked it down once more.

The Mothra larvae began shooting webbing into the air. It came down and settled down on Omega Kiryu. It kept doing this until the robot was completely covered with web. The pilots struggled with the controls but Mothra's webbing was too strong. They were trapped.

Akane sighed and looked out of the cockpit. Godzilla, Anguirus, and the larvae were all crying out in victory.
