"Who are you?" Screamed Ryan hawk as he lifted up the invader. The strange antennae wearing foe attempted to gurgle up a laugh, but all that came up was gurgling black ooze.
"We are coming." was all the creature managed to spit out before dying in Ryan's arms.
A chill raced up Ryan's spine gripping his heart with fear. He took a step back, still clad in his new grasshopper like suit he backed away from the lifeless monstrosity. A bolt of lighting raced through the sky striking the park dead center, creating a brilliant flash of light. Ryan squinted his eyes as the light faded into the dead of night.
As his eyes adjusted back to the absence of light Ryan took as step back crying out in surprise. A mammoth monster stood in the path that the lighting had struck, it's skin was a bluish gray and it sported a rather long tail with a club like tip. The creature must have possessed a remarkable bone structure for it to hold all of the weight it was obviously carrying. A mighty bellow came from the monster's maw shaking the very ground Ryan stood on. The behemoth seemed to be analyzing it's current surroundings.
"What is that thing?" Ryan asked to no one in particular.
"That's Druk -Yul or Jacalar ( Jack- all-are) as we know him, guardian of thunder and once the protector of Mue."
A rainbow patterned moth flew next to Ryan's head chirping cheerfully.
"Okay... so what's he doing here?" Ryan asked
"I am not sure." Said the Elias known as Moll.
An awkward silence followed her statement.
Ryan Hawk looked around then back at the Elias as if anticipating them to take some sort of action, "So, ummm... you guys going to talk to him or what? I mean you can do that cant you? Being mystical fairy people and all."
If Moll or her sister took any offense at his words they did not show it, instead the two of them looked sheepishly at the ground.
" So... does that mean you can't?" Ryan asked still waiting for them to take charge of the situation.
Moll shook her head, "No, It's just that are people and the Guardians do not have good relations with each other."
Ryan didn't understand, "I'm not asking you to have dinner with him I just want to know what he's doing in Osaka!"
"You don't understand."
"So enlighten me."
Moll sighed, " Each of the guardians were rejected by those they were designated to protect, Nusuku the Fire Dragon by Atlantis, Druk-Yul The Thunder Beast by Mue and Levantera the Wind Bird by...us."
"Okay, so you kicked out this levenwhatsit, she goes off to form a loser club of other sulking rejects and your afraid to talk to any of them because...? "
Moll lowered her head, "My sister and I are the exception among are people. Most of us are like are other sister Belvera, cruel, arrogant and bitter. We did not treat Levantera well. When we finally replaced her with Mothra it was because are people wanted to humiliate her by creating our own guardian, one that was better. When Levantera left Lora and I pleaded with are elders to take on the role as Mothra's handmaidens, so that this new guardian would not grow under the terrible influence of the once benevolent Elias."
Ryan's suit had long since vanished and his face indicated he was less then interested in molls story, "I just wanted you to ask it a question. Was that really so much to ask?"
Moll was about to say something when a strong gust of wind whipped passed them. Ryan turned around to see what was going on. A large, yellow chubby Tyrannosaurs like robot landed in front of the behemoth known as Druk-Yul. The robot was armed to the teeth with guns, Missiles and various other weaponry.
"We are so dead." whined Genjo Asano one of the former pilots of Mecha-Godzilla.
"Oh quit your whining, we'll be fine. They expect this kind of behavior from us." said Iko Hamamoto
"I was talking about the Captain. I don't think he's going be too happy about being knocked unconscious and shoved in a broom closet."
"Eh, he'll get over it." commented Victor Barlam. "Not like it's the first time."
"Yeah, you remember what he said he would do to us if we ever did that again." Genjo stated.
Iko rolled her eyes' "Yeah, something about choking the life out of us with his bare hands, wasn't really listening at the time, does anyone have a manual for this thing?"
Victor was randomly pressing buttons, "No, the guard said they didn't hand out pamphlets to terrorists. I tried to tell him we were only borrowing it but he didn't seem to believe me. Though I think Cybersaur was designed off of Mecha-Godzilla so the controls should be relatively the same."
"Hey look!" cried Genjo, pointing out Cybersaur's view port, "There's someone down there. Should we bring them up?"
"Eh, Why not." Victor said, "Not like we can get in any more trouble than were already in."
Ryan Hawk looked up at the yellow Mecha, "Is that Cybersaur? I didn't think it was battle ready yet."
A booming megaphone voice came from Cybersaur, "Attention! Civilians please enter the robot for your own safety."
Ryan looked at the Elias and shrugged, who was he to refuse such an invitation. Ryan and the Elias ran towards the Mecha's feet. One of Cybersaur's toe nails slid open allowing Ryan and the Elias to enter the robot.
Druk-Yul eyed the Mecha curiously. He stood his ground awaiting the Mecha to declare itself friend or foe. Manda and the life drainer Vampirus would be here soon, both would be drawn to his presence, each hungering for his destruction. He would not be made the fool a second time, he may have failed to bring down the life drainer first due to his unique physiology, but this Mecha may present him with a new opportunity if the situation required it.
"We've got some people injured inside that museum down there. They are in need of immediate medical attention." Ryan stated as he walked off the elevator into the Cybersaur cockpit.
Victor nodded and punched an emergency number into a small panel, "They will be here in seven minutes."
Ryan stared at the crew of the Cybersaur for a moment. "Hey, aren't you guys the same pilots of the Mecha- Godzilla that was decommissioned after the Kiryu project was born? I heard you were fired or something."
"Not fired." Victor Barlam said a little annoyed, "We've just been... reassigned."
"So... you're really not supposed to be in control of this Mecha, are you?"
Victor looked at the screen, "Umm. I'll get back to you on that, we've got a monster to fight."
Missiles rocketed from every pour of Cybersaur, screaming straight ahead. Druk-Yul watched as the barrage of various explosives soared through the air towards him. He chuckled to himself, almost two thousand years had passed and still humans were so rash, Oh well, he would have to merely remind them the consequences of underestimating an opponent. He thought about destroying the missiles with a shock-wave or letting his shield take care of the work, but he decided against it.
These people needed a more dramatic example, and allowing the missiles to strike his hide would provide a very powerful example. Hundreds of small explosions detonated over Druk-Yule's hide who merely stood and weathered the attack.
The missiles had actually done less damage then Druk-Yul had estimated, the mechanized dinosaur was of no threat, but still it would be better to take it out of the picture before his two real opponents arrived. Druk-Yul slammed his clubbed tail onto the ground for effect, then released an electromagnetic pulse from his body completely frying the Mecha.
The cockpit of Cybersaur sat in total darkness. "Umm, Victor." Genjo began to say.
"Not a word Asano." victor grumbled," Not a word."
Ryan tried to peer through the Darkness, "So, what now? We just sit here with the lights off?"
"I can get the emergency generators up, they were designed to withstand an EMP but that will only give us lights and oxygen." Iko said.
"Yeah well you better hope that big guy out there doesn't decide to get really hostile because we're sitting ducks up here." Ryan commented.
"We could summon Mothra!" Lora said excitedly.
Ryan whipped his head around at the mere possibility of being able to see one of the more famous Daikaiju in person, but his excitement diminished as he considered their situation. "Wouldn't do us any good. Mothra would never reach here in time to stop old drukkie from smearing this robot all over the city, what we need is some sort of distraction."
A high pitched screech echoed outside the Mecha. Genjo quickly changed the monitors view in time to see a giant mosquito entering the park.
"That will do." Ryan said with mischievous glee.
