Chapter 10
A/N – Is there is one thing I have to say, I am horrible at interviews. Anyways, Welcome to Match 10 of the KWC. I think it's match 10, too lazy to change this so I'll leave it in anyways. Well then, not much to say here but that I hope you enjoy because I just realized how much it's going to suck to do Match 14. Also KaijuX's channel reached Match 100 in the Committee Reads! It's a momentous occasion filled with an hour of the audio completely filled with ear killing static, annoying off topic rants, and awkward glitching. The reason this was not uploaded faster was due to various projects I had to do for school while also including senioritis.

"Match 10: Mothra vs Rodan, by Thomas Singleton. Banner by Christian Salabert"
As Weiss read, a banner showcasing a giant colorful moth monster facing a large orangish red pterosaur with a large icy mountain in the distance. One look at the fluffy moth was all it took for Weiss to know of the divinity of the kaiju goddess.
"Huh, giant moth vs giant pterodactyl, I think Rodan will win this" Ruby said comparing the two flying kaiju. She was using the logic of birds eat insects as her strong point.
"There is no way that giant pterosaur will defeat this divine looking creature" Weiss said defending the moth goddess. "Monster Information Blake" she ordered as Blake sighed before opening the monster bios book.
"You know, sometimes I wish you three would read this book for yourselves so that you would stop calling on me for information" Blake complained as the room began to change to the usual empty space.
"Can't too busy looking through the SDF/Alien book for cool weapon ideas" Ruby replied waving off her excuse. Behind her back, she was hiding several blueprints from the watchful eyes of Weiss.
"Testing out the gravity training and modifying Bumblebee with those bikes outside" Yang said as the other three began to wonder when and how Yang got her motorcycle onto the planet.
"I'm making sure Ruby doesn't accidentally make something that could destroy us all" Weiss replied staring at their leader with some scrutiny. It was Weiss who had stopped Ruby when she readying to create a miniature nuclear reactor based upon blueprints she had found among the blueprints for a large vehicle called the Super-X. Ruby muttered under her breath remembering how strict Weiss was being about her creating mysterious new devices as Blake sighed once more.
"Ahem. Rodan, the Monster of the Sky. The incarnation in the KWC is the Heisei version so I will only explain this one's origin and abilities" Blake started as Heisei Rodan rotated around with his other incarnations. "This Rodan is the adopted brother of Godzilla Junior, having hatched from the same nest and forming a telepathic link with the young creature. He has a height of 70 meters while his abilities consist of Supersonic Flight reaching up to Mach 3, spikes on his chest, he can create hurricane force windstorms by flapping his wings, and he can evolve into his fire form" Blake started before noticing something odd. "Huh, says here that Rodan can come in pairs. Guess they took that from the Showa incarnation. Anyways, in his fire form, he is known as Fire Rodan. This form gives him the ability to fire off a Uranium Heat Beam and instill his power into others by sacrificing himself, creating a large superheated spore cloud in the process."
"Alright!" Ruby shouted out standing up suddenly. "Rodan has this in the bag!"
"You got that right sis" Yang said as the two bumped arms with each other with a smirk on their face. Blake continued reading as she noticed the slightly angered Weiss biting a handkerchief.
"Mothra (Heisei), the Goddess of Peace" she started while Mothra's Larva and Imago stages appeared in the black zone. The other three girls had to think for a moment at what was just said.
"That giant bug is a Goddess?" Yang said with confusion. Weiss facepalmed, again, for once more guessing a monster's title or origin. Blake turned a couple pages as she went on to explain Mothra's origin.
"Mothra is a defender of the earth who is worshiped as a deity by the people of Infant Island. It states here that the Mothra race lived alongside a species of fairies known as the Cosmos, Shobujin, and the Elias and would rise up to defend the innocent from any dangers if called upon" Blake explained as several ahhs of understanding could be heard.
"So, she's not really a goddess" Yang said. Blake coughed for attention as she waited for Yang to quiet down.
"Mothra have been around even during the times of the dinosaurs and the strongest among them is a Mothra by the name of Mothra Leo". As several incarnations of Mothra appeared, an emerald green Mothra appeared above the others flying nearby another Mothra with what seemed to be happiness. "I will explain Leo's powers when a match with him comes up as he is his own character" Blake said as Ruby caught the words Blake mentioned.
"Wait, He?" Ruby said staring at the majestic Mothra Leo. "Also, I really like the Mothra without all the fuzz though the others are really pretty" she said pointing out GMK Mothra.
"Yes, Mothra Leo is the only male Mothra to be shown as all other Mothra are female" Blake said as all the Mothra disappeared except the Heisei version. "Now then, Mothra (Heisei) has the abilities of flight at Mach 3, can travel through space, hurricane winds from wings, antenna ray-shooting beams, can release scales from her wings that will reflect energy attacks back on their source, can create telepathic projections of itself called Fairy Mothra, and she is able to conduct energy through its touch or release it as strands of lightning from her wings. She can also create an energy seal to temporarily seal or freeze her opponents".
Examples of Mothra's abilities began to show starting from her flapping her wings while somehow also hovering in place as a large dust cloud began to form. Golden scales began to join the dust as a Baragon appeared and began to fire upon the cloud. The energy was dispersed among the cloud as it was fired back upon the monster. Lightning joined the mix along with several antenna rays before everything returned to normal.
"Mothra is soooo cool" Ruby said with some glittering in her eyes as she stared at the wondrous moth monster. "But I'm still voting on Rodan because birds eat bugs" she replied.
"Well I still believe Mothra will win this one" Weiss said as she sipped on a cup of tea that she had prepared beforehand. Weiss picked up the KWC book and began to read as the area began to morph and transform leaving them once more floating in the air.
Clouds settled around the peak of Mt. Fuji. Covered with snow and rock, the ancient volcano looked down at the land covered with green and man-made structures. Groups of climbers struck the pix-axe into the hard, cold granite and tugged on the rope, pulling their bodies up with each step. In order to insure their survival, the climbers all had to work as one and depend on the other. Mt. Fuji's peak loomed in the distance, indicating they still had ways to go, but their climb was almost over. The climbers imagined themselves standing on top of the summit, standing on the highest point in all of Japan.
With the match started, Ruby leapt off the platform with Yang joining her. They landed on the cold snow and stretched in the cold weather.
"Ahhh, it's just like home right Yang?" Ruby stated as she let out a large cloud of breath in the cold air. Nearby them struggled the climbers as Yang and Ruby began to scale the mountain with some ease.
"There could be less climbing but it is refreshing to be in the snow sometimes" Yang responded.
"Is there any function to block people from leaving the platform?" Weiss said as she quickly began to search through the tablet settings for the rooms functions. She found what seemed to be the function but it was currently locked. Seeing no way to stop the two for now, Weiss continued to read.
But then a shadow loomed over head. With climbing sunglasses shielding their eyes from the sun, they could only see the dark and benevolent form of a giant moth. A large shriek escaped the great moth's mandibles as her wing's continued to beat strong currents of wind to propel her body through the air. Her fur was a mixture of bright colorful lights that gleamed with beauty. The bulbous eyes glistened in the sunlight, casting a blue glow that filled the climber's hearts with courage. They faintly recognized the magnificent beast was none other than the Guardian of the Cosmos itself-Mothra.
"Here comes the first challenger! The Goddess of Peace Mothra!" Yang shouted from below as Blake waved a small flag with a golden Mothra symbol on it. Ruby had to cover her face from the wind that came soon after while also worrying about her billowing cape.
Mothra flapped her mighty wings and propelled her body to the top of the volcano, resting atop the summit. It would take hours for the climbers to successfully make it to the summit, but for Mothra, it only took a few seconds. Her antennas twitched back and forth, as if picking up the presence of another. Sure enough, the climbers could hear the distant cries of an object soaring through the sky. At first, they thought it was a jet, but the facade was all wrong.
"That noise is getting louder" Ruby said as she and Yang attempted to find Rodan from the skyline with no success. "I'm going to try to get atop Mothra's back" she said as she started to climb up the steep cliffside slowly while using Crescent Rose to help her.
"Be careful climbing. Even if we can't die in these matches, a couple thousand meters of falling is something to fear" Yang said as she too began to scale the mountainside. Weiss wondered whether the sisters were brave or stupid to try climbing a mountain that would take hours to reach the summit just to ride on a giant moth. She then found her answer as she used a glyph to catch a falling Ruby.
"Just get back on the platform and we'll drop you off on Mothra" Weiss said as the two reappeared back on the invisible platform.
"Thanks Weiss" Ruby said holding her hand behind her back. When Weiss wasn't looking, Ruby pulled a snowball slowly from behind her back and took aim. As she went to toss it towards Weiss, a large pillar of ice formed around her leaving her head the only thing unfrozen. Before Ruby could complain, another chunk of ice covered her mouth leaving her nose uncovered.
"You have to be sneakier than that if you want to hit me with a snowball" Weiss said as Yang jumped off onto the back of the giant moth goddess where she held onto the comfortable fuzz on her head.
Fear then hit the climbers.
It was the sky demon itself, Rodan. Sunlight reflected off its red scales and a blistering cry escaped its beak, sounding like thunder. Rodan's feral eyes looked down at the large inactive volcano and could see the giant moth that mocked him. A loud screech once again shot out of the reptile's beak as it made its descent. Long, triangular horns that curved out of the back of its skull crackled bolts of crimson power. Mothra released a loud shriek, trying to warn the climbers to seek shelter. But it was too late. A beam that radiated a bright glow shot out of the pteranodon's beak and arched through the air. Mothra flapped her mighty wings, attempting to avoid the oncoming strike, but was unfortunate. Rodan's uranium beam cleaved her head and a shower of sparks burst from the moth's white fur.
Yang quickly reappeared on the platform with smoke sizzling around her while her semblance was fully powered.
"Phew, that was crazy" Yang said as she wiped her blazing head as she sat down on the couch. Ruby tried to inch closer to Yang with no progress as she continued to stay frozen within the block of ice, her only savior just out of reach to melt her out. She tried to make noise only for the muffled sound to be overheard by the cries of monsters.
Mothra screamed in agony but kept flapping her wings, escalating into the air. Faster than the speed of sound, Rodan dove through the air and clipped his wings across Mothra's back. Another scream escaped Mothra's mandibles, as she felt a staggering pain pulse in her back. She turned and could see Rodan fly across the mouth of Mt. Fuji and immediately powered up her own beams. Orange streaks of power rippled from Mothra's antennas and struck Rodan's body, showering his body in sparks. Rodan screeched in pain but veered to his left, smoke churning from his scalded flesh. Rodan flew straight at Mothra, while Mothra did the same to Rodan. Both flying kaiju flew straight at the other, colliding over the mouth of Mt. Fuji. Sonic booms screeched from the two titanic monsters and shook the mountain itself. Avalanches tumbled down the sides of the volcano and the climbers were thankfully not caught in its wrath.
"This is an amazing aerial battle between two powerful creatures" Blake said watching as the two continued to collide and fire upon each other. "It makes me wonder just what else is in store for us in the future".
"Eh, it's alright but I expected more oomph in a battle like this" Yang replied with her semblance slowly reverting as a teary eyed Ruby stared longingly towards the flaming hair.
Rodan shrieked as he struck Mothra's skull with his sharp beak, tearing into her flesh. But Mothra backed away and revealed the bottom of her beautiful wings, which crackled with golden hues of light. Rodan screeched in pain as Mothra's lightning bolts electrocuted his body. From a distance, if anyone was to look up at the peak of Mt. Fuji, they would've been baffled by the bright auras of light. Mothra's antennas twiddled and then pointed directly at Rodan, who was still recovering from the electrical bolts, and fired another pair of golden beams. The beams struck Rodan's throat and the pteranodon plummeted towards the top ridge of the volcano. Cauldrons of smoke and snow burst into the air, enveloping Rodan's body, which resided on the ground. Rodan's violent chirps were endless and Mothra circled over head, blindly unleashing a barrage of her antenna beams. Bright sparks flashed from the dense smoke. Mothra continued to circle overhead, no longer releasing her beams upon what she hoped to be Rodan's body. But as the smoke was cleared from the flaps of her wings, Rodan's body was no where to be seen. Mothra turned back and forth, her eyes only seeing the volcano's peak and the landscape. Looking through hundreds of different pupils, Mothra looked all around and still couldn't find Rodan, until the pteranodon's uranium beam struck Mothra's backside.
Everyone awed at the lightshow that was going on as Mothra released bolts of lightning on Rodan who soon fell to the rock.
"Get him Mothra, show that dinosaur whose superior!" Weiss shouted out with a brief pause in reading. Yang pushed Weiss to the side and cupped her hands together.
"You can do this Rodan!" she shouted out before flailing backwards from a sudden gust of wind. Yang flipped over the couch and knocked the frozen ice statue of Ruby off the ledge. "Ruby!" Yang shouted as she watched her frozen sister with panic on her face as she fell down several meters into the smoke. The sound of ice shattering hit their ears as they awaited Ruby's return to the platform. When she didn't appear, Yang began to worry for her sister wondering if they had accidentally killed her when the uranium beam hit Mothra. Weiss continued to read, hoping that their leader was alright.
Mothra cried out in pain. Sparks flashed on her back as tiny strands of fur were on fire. The great moth turned to see Rodan fly right over her, releasing a salvo of shockwaves within his wake. Mothra, helplessly, was hurled through the air and crashed into the side of Mt. Fuji and proceeded to slide downhill. Rodan circled over head and spotted Mothra, his triangular horns gleaming with power. Rodan dove towards the sliding moth, knowing Mothra, even if she tried, would not be able to hit him with her antenna beams. Another torrent of Rodan's uranium beam discharged from his beak and slit into Mothra's abdomen. Mothra cried out in pain, but it only satisfied Rodan's lust for blood even more. Desperate, Mothra flapped her wings and generated her golden pollen. Rodan, unknowingly, flew through the cloud of pollen and cackled in pain, his skin being burnt by the particles. Now Mothra was able to roll on her belly and stretch out her wings, flying straight up and was able to avoid sliding all the way to the bottom. Mothra turned to see Rodan flying around in circles; his eyes blood shot and skin sizzling from her golden pollen.
"WOOHOOO!" a voice said as Rodan flew past them. On its already red scales was another red and black figure holding onto one of the back spikes with shards of ice around her.
"Of course she would be fine" Weiss stated once they saw their red hooded leader flying into the sky. "This makes it the second time she rode on a giant bird monster". Meanwhile, Ruby was cheering as she sat on the small spikes on Rodan's back.
Rodan released a barrage of his uranium heat beams, but all the beams were reflected back and forth by the pollen and blazed into his own body. Howling from his injuries, Rodan flapped his wings and created strong gusts of wind that blew the pollen away. But as Rodan was beginning to heal from his wounds, Mothra flew straight at him and knocked him up against the side of Mt. Fuji. Rodan's back was pushed up against the volcano's side, which was shuddering from Rodan's impact. Mothra's antenna beams rained down from the sky and tore into Rodan's flesh, further injuring the mutated pteranodon. Rodan felt his body slide down the side of the volcano, but its instincts told him not to suffer the same fate that Mothra nearly endured. Spreading out his magnificent wings, Rodan flew through the air and ascended to the sky. Now the pteranodon's feral eyes pulsed with hatred. Scanning Mt. Fuji and the sky itself, Mothra could not be seen. But then Rodan turned swiftly around and flew up, raking his chest spikes across Mothra's face. Mothra fell from the sky and fell head first into the mouth of the volcano. Even though the entry to molten rock was blocked by years of forming rock and ice, Mothra's impact stirred it. A shadow fell over Mothra and now she felt Rodan's chest spikes rake her back while his beak tore into the back of her cranium.
The Pollen covered Ruby as several beams coursed around her striking several places other than where she sat. Seeing that Rodan was going to be tackled into the volcano and due to Weiss's reading, Ruby acted swiftly and ran up to Rodan's neck. She hugged his neck as she tried her hardest to not be hit by the several beam attacks before Rodan took off once more.
"How is she still hanging on after all this?" Blake asked curious at how such a small person could avoid so many dangerous obstacles while holding onto a giant monster.
"Eh, one time Ruby took out a whole pack of beowolves on her own with only two clips of dust bullets remaining. I think she'll be alright." Yang said as she shrugged her shoulders. "Those beams and that pollen attack was very beautiful though with all the sparkles".
"Peck! Peck! Peck!" Ruby chanted as Rodan assaulted Mothra. Weiss looked like she was going to be sick while Blake and Yang seemed indifferent to the scene.
Helplessly, Mothra flapped her wings but was only pushed down by Rodan's strength and rage. Rodan hollered in pleasure, cleaving Mothra's skull with his beak soon after. The climbers who were lucky enough to survive and make it to the summit were baffled to see the battling titans, still fighting to the death. Mothra's painful cries echoed on for miles as the great moth was being ripped apart by Rodan's beak. Now the pteranodon hopped up and embedded his talons deep into Mothra's furry flesh. Crackles of light sparkled around Rodan's triangular horns and another wave of his uranium beam scalded Mothra's body. The pain was too much and Mothra's life force was beginning to deplete. Rodan's reptilian eyes turned and were focused on Mothra's flapping wings and terrible thought appeared in its prehistoric mind. Once again, Rodan powered up his uranium beam, but this time the beams tore into Mothra's wings, puncturing holes in the wings seconds later. Smoke rose from the torn wings and Mothra continued to moan in agony.
"See Weiss? Birds really do eat bugs" Yang said as Weiss felt like throwing up from the messy scene of the bleeding moth. Blake could see Ruby laughing in maniacal glee as she rocked back and forth on Rodan's neck.
"Is there something wrong with Ruby?" Blake said pointing out their leader's almost dark, bloodthirsty laughter.
"Other than being very kill happy? Many things" Yang said as she winced upon seeing Rodan burn holes in Mothra's wings. "Oooo, that's gotta hurt" she said as she heard the agonizing cries of the moth goddess.
Rodan enjoyed Mothra's suffering.
Though she felt slightly sad, Ruby also enjoyed Mothra's suffering as she sat upon Rodan's neck, chanting for a finisher. Weiss flinched as she saw what the Pterosaur was going to do as Ruby's chants echoed through the air but continued to read.
The pteranodon flapped his wings and ascended to the sky, circling around Mt. Fuji and released a barrage of his uranium beams. Mothra's body jolted up from the pain but fell back down. With her wings injured, Mothra was unable to take flight. If only her wings were still intact. But no, she knew her life was going to come to an end. Her bulbous eyes stared up at the sky, marveling at its beauty-before Rodan descended from the skies and struck the final blow.
Weiss screamed out as she saw Rodan tear into Mothra's body and covered her eyes. Ruby's shouts echoed through the air as she fell off Rodan and into the body of Mothra covering her in gooey bug fluids. She quickly dropped onto the couch free of goo and pollen though she managed to grab hold of a shiny scale from Mothra's body.
"Ptooey, that tasted horrible" Ruby said as she spit bug fluids out of her mouth. She scratched at her tongue as Yang laughed at her.
"You really need to learn to close your mouth Rubes" she said in between laughs. Ruby simply pounded her fists against her older sister as Weiss slowly looked at the scene below. Not wanting to stare at the scene of Rodan tearing into Mothra, she continued to read as the scenery changed.
Days passed and when news of the battle between the two kaiju became public knowledge, a brave group of climbers climbed Mt. Fuji to show their bravery. But when they reached the summit, they were disgusted by the putrid remains of the former Guardian of the Cosmos, Mothra.
"Winner: Rodan"
As the room returned, Weiss immediately ran off to the bathroom as Yang continued to tease Ruby.
"So. thoughts on the match?" Blake asked as she sipped on her drink.
Ruby stopped her assault as she started to play with the rainbow colored scale in her hands.
"The battle was Awesome! Rodan was all like 'I'm going to eat you' and Mothra was all like 'Take this Pollen attack'. Otherwise I felt that Rodan was really cool and powerful with his uranium heat beams" Ruby said. Yang thought for a bit as Weiss came back to the room. Just before Yang could speak, Weiss started speaking.
"I hated this match" she said.
"What, can't deal with Nature at its finest?" Yang teased.
"What I mean is how could anything kill something so beautiful?" Weiss complained pointing towards the Mothra in the banner. "Mothra should have won this fight, she had more abilities than her opponent and both were equal in speed". Blake continued to sip her drink as Weiss went on her tangent.
"Finished?" Blake said as Weiss glared at her. "Alright then. The difference I see here is that while Mothra is a gentle goddess of peace, Rodan is a predator at heart and will always go for the kill". Blake took a quick sip before continuing. "What I found odd is that there wasn't much backstory about why Mothra went to Mt. Fuji which would have made the match much better".
"Though I agree, I still don't like the outcome" Weiss said crossing her arms.
"That's fine Weiss" Yang said as she tossed a snack into the air only for Zwei to snatch it. Staring at her pet, he simply wagged his tail with his tongue hanging from his mouth. "My thoughts are more towards this being more a part of life and I found it quite interesting how it was basically predator against prey this match".
The book was handed off to Blake as she set her drink on the table. Flipping the page, the banner faded away revealing the next match incoming.
A/N – I hope you enjoyed the chapter and here is some stuff I feel like saying. I am an ass. I am also really lazy. Don't expect much from me even though I find writing these stories to be pretty fun. Time that could be spent writing is usually spent creating images and banners on Photoshop or writing KWC matches which has been draining my creativity. This is Daozang, Signing out.
