Chapter 14: Golden Gate Chaos
Back on the USS Saratoga, the fleet was still fallowing Godzilla. The last two Jaegers were on separate aircraft carriers, while on the pursuit of Godzilla.
"He's going under. Sound the collision alarm, ring one-eight-zero." A Navy officer informed.
"We're losing visual, Admiral. He's diving. Changing course and moving fast, I've got him at thirty-three knots and picking up speed. It's gonna out run us, sir." Martinez informed William.
"What about the nukes?" Stacker stepped in.
"I've already taken care of that. A recovery team is flying in to recover the nuke." William answered.
"Good." Stacker nodded. "We need all the fire power we can get."
Back in San Francisco, the order to evacuate has been issued as patients are being escorted out of the hospital where Elle works. No one could blame them, as they already know the Wall of Life program was a complete waste and a complete failure from the start. This was against the UN representatives' directives, but by this point everyone including the president decided to follow their own instincts.
"Wait! Wait! These patients are my responsibility! Where are you taking them?" Elle asked frantically at one of the soldiers.
"Across the bridges. Critical and children only." Said one of the National Guard. "Everyone else who is in good health will also be joining. I suggest you evacuate too ma'am." After he left, the head nurse Elle works with walks past her.
"Shelters getting pretty full up fast. Trust me, they're going to be safer outside the city. I can take Sam." She advised.
"No, no. Ford's on his way." Elle insisted.
"If you change your mind, the buses leave in ten minutes." She reminded her, then leaves with others to evacuate. Elle stands there wondering in worry.
"Where are you, Ford?"
Back out at see with fleet of aircraft carriers, the recovery team brings the nuke to the USS Saratoga, heading to San Francisco with Ford in one of the other aircraft carriers.
"Hey, where are they taking it?" Ford asked one of the Bomb trackers.
"Twenty miles offshore to Burgess Point, we're going to lure them there. Three birds, one stone." He explained.
Back in San Francisco outside the hospital, buses and ambulances, as well as military trucks, were piling away with patients, children, and families. As Ford has still not shown up, Elle reluctantly decides to let Sam go with her co-worker on the emergency buses leaving the city.
"Wait!" She stopped one of the buses. "Okay Sammy." Elle carries Sam over where her co-worker Laura, the head nurse, was in. "Laura! Thank God." Laura smiles. "Sammy, you remember Laura, she's mommy's work friend, right? She's gonna look after you just for a little bit. Daddy's gonna be here soon and I'm gonna just come get you right after, I promise."
"Okay." Sam said with a crack in his voice. He was now scared of the situation the world was in right now.
"Okay?" She kisses Sam on the forehead.
"Come on, sweetheart. You're gonna come with me, you're mom's gonna stay here and help." Laura explained. Sam goes over to Elle's co-worker to take a seat. "Elle, I'm gonna take care of him, okay?" Laura promises. She turns to Sam. "Say bye-bye mommy."
"Bye, mommy." Sam says with sadness in his voice. Elle waves goodbye and watches the bus leave with tears in her eyes.
Oakland, California, Tactical Operations Command - the fleet of Aircraft carriers and the recovery team lands and everyone runs out to set up a base of operations. The Two Jaegers are unloaded from the carriers and placed on land. Newton and Hermann have the fresh Kaiju brain, intact and are having it moved of the carriers. Raleigh, Mako, and Ford join up with Stacker, William, and Russell. At the Oakland Bay Area Park everyone meets with the tactical team.
"Sit rep, please. Location of targets?" William requested.
"Male MUTO was spotted thirty miles off the Farallon Islands." The first civilian analyst responded.
"We're showing seismic activity to the east, near Livermore, it should be the female closing in." The second one spoke up.
"Where's Godzilla?" William asked.
"Last contact was still five hours ago, maintaining a bearing of zero-five-three degrees and descending below a depth of ten thousand feet. He'll be here within the hour." Martinez answered.
"And what about the category 4 Kaijus?" Stacker asked.
"Unknown, sir. They're travelling in a very fast pace." She answered.
"Any knew information on the Breach?" He added.
"Still nothing, sir." Tendo answered.
"Well, maybe, they finally realize that we mean business and we can kill them without a second thought." Chuck said. "So they finally turn tail and ran." He smiled. "See? I told you we'd win." But Herc wasn't in the mood.
"Shut up, you idiot." Herc harshly nudged at his wounded arm. Chuck hissed in pain.
"As much that would be good news, I highly doubt that." Stacker said. Stenz looks at the TV monitor showing news footage of the emergency evacuation in the city.
"There's still buses on that bridge." William stares in realization shock.
Out on the Golden Gate Bridge the evacuation buses have stalled as troops in tanks position themselves on the bridge ready to attack the MUTO's and Godzilla. It was a misty, rainy day and it came to no surprise that the bridge was in total traffic. The police were trying to guide traffic, but with all the commotion it was hard. Inside the bus, the bus driver was having a hard time understanding hearing because the kids were playing so loudly.
"What? What? I-I can't hear you!" He tries to say. He turns to the kids in the back. "Oh, kids please be quiet." Sam however wasn't having any fun. He looked scared, lonely and miserable. The kids saw in awe and excitement, tanks positioning themselves on the bridge. Battleships were stationed under and around the bridge for extra measure. The kids kept playing until they stopped when they heard a distant echo. That was Godzilla's roar. Everyone heard it, and then everything was quiet, despite the sound of pouring rain. Sam looked out his window for a silent moment, only to be jump scared by seagull hitting the window frame and flying away. Multiple seagulls and birds were flying away, as if something spooked them and they are evacuating themselves.
Down in the water where the Battleships were stationed.
"Port side, two hundred meters!" Called out one of the navy soldiers. The soldiers look ahead and suddenly through the fog, and see a huge fin heading straight towards their ship. (It's not Godzilla, but he'll show up just keep reading and you'll be in for a surprise.)
"Brace!" The Navy Man shouted. Everyone complies as they braced for impact. But surprisingly the huge fin stops just before he hits the ship.
"Hold you fire. Hold your fire." The Soldier says through the speakers. Everyone just stands in confusion. But then the fin emerges from under the water. The ships were actually directly under the back of a Kaiju. To everyone's shock its Trespasser. A clone of the original first Kaiju. This causes the troops to attack it. But since they were on Trespasser's back they all fell and perished. Trespasser stood tall and started moving towards the Golden Gate Bridge. Battle ships from the other side notice this and try to fire. The bus driver sees the fires being shot and decides to drive through the barricades and full throttle. The kids scream in fear, seeing the missiles are being fired.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" The bus driver shouts and honks his horn. Those who saw the bus coming they all jump out of the way. Suddenly one of the missiles hit the bridge and the driver steps on the breaks. The other troops rush to where Trespasser is walking towards them.
"Striker, there's civilians on the bridge!" A soldier calls threw his walkie-talkie. "Aim higher!" Trespasser was now towering over them. He raised his both claws high in the air. He is intending on having no survivors. Everyone stared in complete fear, as they were facing their death.
But the suddenly arising from the other side of the bridge came a claw of another monster that pushed grabbed Trespasser by the axehead of his. It was Godzilla. He held on tightly on to Trespasser's head good and tight as his roar echoed. Everyone stared in shock and awe at what they were seeing. Trespasser roared is aggravation trying to get free, but Godzilla held on too tightly.
"Weapons at the ready, men! Let's give him some help!" The lead soldier shouted.
"Which one!?"
"Help the lizard one, damn it! Which one do you think!? Pump the other one full of holes!" In that instant all the troops fired at Trespasser. Even though it was doing nothing, they still felt like they had to do something. They then cleared a path for the civilians. "Go, go, go, go!" The driver wasted no time as he stepped on the gas.
"Move! Move!" The driver shouted and honked his horn. The two monsters were still locked in a struggle, and the soldiers emptied out everything they got. The civilians drove at full speed but still kept at a safe pace and distance. Finally, when everyone was off the bridge, Godzilla roared loudly and with one last effort pushed passed Trespasser to water. Destroying the bridge in the process. Trespasser tries to get back up, but Godzilla stomps and breaks his head, killing it. Godzilla roars in victory as he then dives back down. The troops on one of the ships watch Godzilla from a distance.
"Prepare to arm the device!" The first Missile Tech shouted. The soldiers take the top of the nuke off. "Armored keys!" The two soldiers insert the keys into the nuke and turn to each other.
"Three, two, one!" They turn the keys simultaneously which sets the bomb with a 1 hour 29 minutes countdown timer. At the same time they feel a force of energy ripple through the sky.
"What the hell was that?"
"EMP." They weren't wrong. Everything around them went off.
"The engine's stopped, we lost power!" Called a Navy Soldier.
As the city loses power, Elle sees a parashoot in the fog. What fallows was a aircraft jet smashing into a building. Civilians instantly panic and Elle stares in shock. The male MUTO was throwing military aircrafts into buildings causing explosions. The military man their guns at the ready. The male MUTO suddenly flies into the water. The military tries to take it down but it was too tough and too fast. It takes the nuke from the ship and flies into the city to give it to the female MUTO. The male flies and lands on one of the buildings. He sees a giant clouds of smoke and dirt headed straight towards him. He knew what that was. Using echolocation it flew closer in. With the destruction of the city, it is revealed to be the female MUTO. However she did not come alone. With her were the two category 4 Kaiju; Raiju and Scunner. They acted as her bodyguards, seeing how she is the queen Kaiju. The male MUTO gives his mate the nuclear missile and the two share a loving tender moment (Much more romantic than that Twilight crap!). She gladly accepts the gift and she puts it near her womb to let her babies know that they'll be hatching soon. She then in turn starts making a nest around it. The male MUTO uses echolocation to order her escorts to scout about the area and eliminate any threat that comes to harm her. Both Raiju and Scunner nod as they move out and about.
Back in Oakland, Ford was trying to get any in tell on the where about of his wife and son, Elle and Sam Brody. Raleigh with him.
"Sam Brody was checked into the Oakland Coliseum shelter an hour ago, he is safe. But I have no record of Elle Brody; she never made it out of the city." The Evacuation Worker informed Ford.
"Well, check again! Please! I told her to wait for me and I didn't make it." Ford begged.
"I'm sorry, but they are trying to get everyone downtown into subway shelters. I'm sure your wife is fine." He assured him. He turns and walks off. Ford sits in a chair feeling lost. Raleigh felt sorry for Ford.
"You'll see her again, I promise." Raleigh said.
"Lieutenant Brody! Lieutenant Becker! I'm looking for a Lieutenant Brody!" Ford and Raleigh turn to see who's calling them. "Are you Brody and Becker?"
"Yes, that's us!" Raleigh answered.
In Tactical Operations Command everyone gathered around for a briefing.
"Okay, listen up! The male delivered the warhead to the center of downtown. That puts a hundred thousand civilians in the blast radius, and we can't stop it remotely." Russell explained.
"An analog timer has been installed and the MUTO's are frying electronics within a five mile bubble, it means approaching from ground is not an option. That's why we'll be conducting a HALO insertion. Jumping altitude will be thirty thousand feet, just get it to the top and drop, here and here." The Jump Master added in pointing to the areas on the map. "If you don't hit a skyscraper on the way in we'll meet at rally point Charlie, right here. Good?" All the troops nodded.
"Doc, any guesses where to look?" The Bomb tracker turned and asked.
"Under ground, if the MUTO's have spawned they'll be building a nest." Ishiro answered.
"Then we'll sent Gipsy and Striker in a frontal assault. They'll have nuclear reactors so it will make for a fine distraction." Stacker added in.
"Marshal, sir!" Tendo called from his seat. "I'm picking up readings of the Breach! It's in the center of downtown! The Precursors, they moved it!"
"What!?" Chuck was struck with shock. Everyone was speechless.
"This makes the situation even more grave." Herc said.
"Yes." Stacker nodded. "However, if we play our cards right we can turn this situation to our advantage. Get the warhead and drop it into the breach."
"Sounds like a plan." William nodded.
"What about the categir 4 Kaijus?" Stacker asked.
"That's the thing, they're not heading anywhere. They're harboring just above the breach. It's...it's like they're protecting it or something." Tendo answered.
"Okay then, we all know the plan. Get to the nest which is above the Breach, get the war head, and drop it into the Breach." Stacker briefly explained.
"Any questions?" Russell asked. There's a moment's pause. "Dismissed."
"That's it! Let's move!" The Jump Master called. They all start leaving.
"Lieutenants?" Ford and Raleigh turns and looks Hamilton "We've already been briefed, we have no extraction plan. If you don't walk out, you don't come back at all."
"Sir, we'll do whatever it takes." Ford said. Raleigh nods in agreement. Stenz watches Ford, Raleigh, and Hamilton then turns to walk over to Serizawa.
"This alpha predator of yours, doctor, do you really think he has a chance?" William asks.
"The arrogance of man is thinking nature is in our control and not the other way around." Ishiro explained. "Let them fight."
Back in the city as the male MUTO's flies through downtown. People panic as they run away from the MUTO, Elle among the people. But then they all stop by the appearance of Godzilla rising from the water. All the people ran inside the hospital building as the male MUTO flew straight at Godzilla on the assault. Their battle has begun!
Chapter 14 is done. And so comes the EPIC climax of epic proportions! Read it, review it, and tell me what you people think. This is just here for people to enjoy. :)
