The Little Girl and The Continent

Chapter 12

It was currently nighttime. Godzilla and Kaila stopped to rest before they continued their trek to the Tobian Mountains. Everyone else was asleep as well, but not Val. She was surprisingly still awake. Something had been bugging her greatly. It was as if something was watching her. She noticed movement in the trees, and decided to follow and see who it was. Walking for a bit and climbing over a log, she came across a very small clearing with a small sapling in the middle. Tilting her head, she bent her knees and felt the sapling's leaf. It was warm and healthy.

"You'll certainly grow up big, I know you will," Val told the sapling. Then she heard what sounded like a branch breaking. Standing up quickly, she looked into the shadows. She knew something was in there. From the shadows, two glowing snake eyes emerged, each about the same size as her hand. Then the snake emerged from the shadows. It was as long as an ankylosaurus, and it has two Carnatourus-like head crests over it's eyes, as well as two, sharp fangs that dripped with venom. It flicked it's tongue multiple times, though it could obviously see her in the dark.

"Hello." The snake only flicked it's tounge at her again. She got out her orcarina and began to play some soothing music. The snake began to play along like a cobra to a snake charmer. Two flaps opened up like a cobra, and it began to move its head around in a dancing motion. Val smiled before she stopped, and the huge snake did the same. She reached out her hand to pet the snake, but it threw its head back, unfolding its flaps and shaking a rattle at the end of its tail.

Val drew her hand back in fear as the snake continued its menacing rattle. It looked ready to attack her before Kaila woke up. Sensing Val's fear, she quickly fount her and scared the snake away. Val smiled at Kaila before she went back with her to camp. Talura was awakened by Kaila's sudden movements and looked over to Val.

"How many times do I have to tell you, don't run off," she said before shutting her eyes again. Val frowned at her, but she went back to sleep.

Morning came. The sun rose over the treetops, which hit Godzilla and Kaila first. They were the first ones to wake. Their breath awoke the others of the camp. Val yawned and fluttered her eyes open. Talura groaned, bringing her head up. "Using that log as a pillow was not the greatest idea in the world."

"At least your up and not dealing with a Vibrating Pillbug. That's a first," Sazun chuckled. Talura pouted, but sighed as she looked off in the distance. They were almost in range of Mount Toba, where Obsidorah is presumed to live. Val was excited to meet Obsidorah. If she was successful, he could help them win the war! After having breakfast, they got on Godzilla's head and they all took off towards the Tobian Mountains.


Mount Toba:

Something watched the two giants as they made their way to his home. It was large, scaly, and covered in thick crystal armor. It snorted before looking behind it. Standing behind him were...

Dragons.

A small battalion of fifty dragons had been scrounged up, all having the same crystal armor as the figure, though it was a little less than his. The figure finally emerged from the shadows, revealing himself to also be a dragon, though a little bigger and older. He looked upon his army, contempt that they were able to fight in the name of Obsidorah himself. Their king hated other giants, and with those two around, it wouldn't be long before he came out and unleashed a wrath last seen in the First War of Greek Oppression.

He let out a roar, and he and his dragon army lifted into the morning sky, ready for battle.


Back with Val and them:

Val admired the mountains around them. They were tall, and seemed to be covered in gold, as she could see big chunks of gold sticking out from the rock. Godzilla and Kaila then stopped. Val looked at them and wondered what was wrong. Then she sensed it. This is a place guarded by something, huge, powerful...a king.

They could see a volcano in the middle of the mountain range. It was fuming, threatening to erupt. Val then noticed something off in the distance. A multitude of figures were coming straight towards them. Using her magic, she could see that they were dragons. They all looked angry, possibly because they were inside their territory.

"Oh great." Talura spoke," crystal dragons."

"Crystal dragons?"

"Crystal dragons are basically Obsidorah's guards. They wear a type of crystal armor that's resilient to the most powerful of magic, and they spew that very crystal from their mouths as fire. Anything the fire makes contact with turns into the crystal they wear as armor. The most powerful magical beings that we ever had that went to find Obsidorah were all encased in that crystal for eternity, as the legend goes," Talura explained.

Val was shocked at that. These dragons were anti-magic? They looked dangerous. She decided to try to speak with them. The area around her and who she thought was the dragon army leader went dark as she tried aura bonding on him.

"It's okay. We don't mean any harm. We simply wish to speak with your god-king," Val told him. The dragon stopped flying for a moment, listening to Val's voice. It was sweet and full of innocence. But that didn't matter to the dragon leader.

"God-King Obsidorah has deemed your giant friends enemies of the Draconian Kingdom. Since you are apparently part of their group, you will also suffer the fate of crystallization."

"W-wait! We can talk this over!"

"Too late for that now human. I, Vokun, general of the crystal dragon armada, will smite your giant friends down with my breath."

The aura-bonding ended after that. Talura held Val close as the crystal dragons got closer. Godzilla prepared to fire his fire breath at the dragons, but their fight didn't come. A light surrounded Godzilla and Kaila, blinding them and the crystal dragons. When the light went away, they fount that Godzilla and Kaila had vanished. The crystal dragons simply shrugged it off, and flew back to Mount Toba.


Val opened her eyes again to find herself atop a mountain peak. She sat up and fount everyone else besides Godzilla and Kaila had also went with her through the light. But it wasn't her magic that teleported them. Talura shook her head before standing up.

"Wait...were on top of Mount Clarhi."

"You've arrived." Val, Sazun, Gadus, Talura, and Seicom quickly turned to see who spoke. A pair of red eyes and blue eyes looked at them from the shadows. The figures finally stepped out. Val instantly recognized the red-eyed one.

The Mothman. Or should I say, a mothko.

Like what Sazun had told them, the black one had armor on that made him look more humanoid, while the white one with blue eyes was barren, showing her fluff and wings.

"Greetings," the male mothko began.

"By the gods! I can't believe it! They do exist," Talura exclaimed. Everyone looked at Talura with a weird look, and she shrunk back in embarrassment.

"Who are you two exactly," Sazun asked the two mothkos.

"I am Pethow," the male introduced himself. "And this is Koalix, my wife," Pethow said, introducing the female mothko.

"How...we get...here," Seicom asked.

"My wife teleported you all here. It would've been suicide trying to make contact with Obsidorah with that crystal dragon armada of his. So in order NOT to get you killed, my wife transported you here to our home," Pethow explained.

"But where are Godzilla and Kaila," Val asked him.

"They are okay. They are at the bottom of the mountain, so no worries," Pethow told her. Val breathed a sigh of relief as Sazun stood up.

"Well, thanks for saving us from being turned into jewelry, but we gotta get going and find Sargon and Trousk," he said, grabbing Gadus.

"Wait." Sazun stopped in his tracks as he looked back at Pethow. "It's too dangerous to go. The Greek king Spertias has a powerful artifact that could easily one-shot your giants."

"But we need to find them, along with my uncle and friends," Val said.

"It would be safer if you stayed with us. The situation with your pals are a little...complicated. Val tilted her head, wondering what Pethow meant. But then it hit her.

"Are they dead!?"

"...well...it would be best if you looked yourself." Pethow got out a crystal ball and placed it in front of Koalix. She sat down, along with the others and their pets, who watched intently as the female mothko began to work her magic. The ball now shows a memory from the past. A past that roughly translates to a week ago. What shocked Val the most was it was about Sargon.


A week earlier, after Val, Talura, and Sazun escaped the Greeks:

Sargon punched the last soldier's head off, ending his fight. He sighed, stretching his arms, which were coated in blood from all the clawing and punching he has done. He let out a mighty, victorious roar. He lowered his head to only feel a presence behind him. Sargon quickly turned around to see Spertias, a menacing grin on his face.

"Ah, it's the lizard that witch was friends with."

"You want a piece of me buddy!? I'm going to kick your tail so hard, you'll be flying back to Mount Olympus," Sargon yelled at him. Spertias only chuckled, holding his trident up and pointing it at Sargon.

"Pathetic."

"WHO YOU CALLING PATHETIC, BUG!?" Sargon charged at Spertias, bringing his fist up to punch him. Spertias held that look on his face until Sargon's punch was an inch away from colliding from his nose. But then Sargon stopped. He felt a great, burning pain coming from his chest. He looked down to see that Spertias's trident stabbed right through his chest. "You...bug..."

"What was that? Doesn't matter. By the power of the gods, I, Spertias, command you give me your SOUL!" Spertias felt the life begin to drain from him as Spertias began to slowly pull his trident out from his body. He saw the forked end of the trident surrounded by a blue and white glow. Is that his soul!? He wasn't going to die here. He tried sending a punch at Spertias to stop him, but he caught his fist with enough speed to impress a quark dragon, if they were still around of course. Spertias's eyes rolled up into his head as the king of Greece finished pulling out his trident.

Sargon simply collapsed onto the ground, turning into dust as Spertias admired the soul he had taken. He had heard tales of magora, and that if someone is murdered, that the person's loved one will join up with the dead person's soul, activating the magora. But he knew what Wrutian Deinonychuses were. He had no family from the looks of it. Seeing this, he simply flung Sargon's soul into the sky before heading back to the now destroyed encampment.

"Now to find Trousk and put him out of his misery."


Current time:

Val sat there. Her eyes were as wide as dinner plates. She just saw her friend, one of the most powerful since her friends got their powers, get his soul ripped out by the Greek king's trident. Her eyes began to water, and Gadus and Talura noticed this and tried to comfort her. But they all knew that he was dead.

But, what they didn't know, is that it was going to take a lot more than that to take down a king.
