Chapter 20: King of Skull Island

Alice, Sue and Spike stood rooted to the spot. Her best friends and partly family, disappeared right before her eyes.

Saying nothing and silently, they noticed how the other Kaijus came to them.

"Hey, what happened here? Something hit the scanner in the base and we thought we'd check it out, "said Spacegodzilla.

Kiryu meanwhile came out of the building and was surprised to see everyone else here. "What's going on?" "We'd also like to know that," said Rodan. "So where is Godzilla? He must know what happened here, " said Angirus. Alice hesitated nervously, Spike did not dare. Sue rolled her eyes. Once it brought something that she could not keep secret.

"Zoe and the others were attacked by the Alpha Gang, then Godzilla came to help the others, and then they all went up in smoke and are probably now in Akuno!"

"That does not sound good," said Jet Jaguar. "Not good? This is genius! Godzilla is now right in the base and can clean up! "Gigan jubilated.

"No, that's not it. Have you ever forgotten what Godzilla said with the Trilopods? " Said King Ghidorah. " In addition, that means we have to use Plan B," said Spacegodzilla.

"Sure he will help? He and Godzilla have not talked so well since the 62, and they did ... you know what was. " King Ghidorah told Spacegodzilla.

"Although we agreed that Plan B will only be used in an emergency, Godzilla said that he talked to him, and she agreed. And she would help anyway. "

"Wait, what are you talking about?" Spike asked. He, Alice and Sue did not quite understand what the others meant.

"Plan B. There's always good old Plan B," laughed Gigan. "Plan B is for the case that Godzilla abducts and disappears, the other one takes command," said Spacegodzilla. He points out to the other Kaijus that they should go to the D-Lab.

Then Spacegodzilla and Ghidorah and Alice devoted themselves. "Alice, do you have your crystal with you?"
"Yes, here in my pocket." Alice took it out. "We need small pieces of it. It's the crystal of time, right? "Asked Spacegodzilla. "Yeah, what do you need that for?" "Well, Kiryu put forward the thesis that if we absorb that crystal that drives our time travel, that of the Kirstall. Otherwise, we would need much longer for such a trip, "he explained.

Alice nodded and gave the crystal to Spacegodzilla. He carefully broke two small pieces, no bigger than a pebbel, and also gave Ghidorah one. Both nodded and swallowed them.

Shortly they both lit up. It was very bright.

Then it stopped. "Now we get some recruitments!" King Ghidorah said.

Spacegodzilla and King Ghidorah opened a time portal.

Present, Skull Island

Spacegodzilla knock down a tree. He walked through a dense jungle. He and Ghidorah would have arrived at their places at almost the same time. They searched for the two strongest Kaijus that existed next to Godzilla.

Spacegodzilla tried to remember the way he has gone before. But that was years ago. Meanwhile, this island had always changed. He could not fly, as there were many dangerous flying animals, and he had no time for a fight.

This island was isolated for millions of years from the rest of the world, one of the few retreat areas for Kaijus.

He walked far through the forest. Since he had no machete he used his claws to eliminate the dense vegetation.

After about 2 hours walking through the forest, he arrived at an open area. It was a large open grassland, with some ponds and swamps.

"If I go here I'll probably notice, no matter if I'm big or small. I should be ready for the fight." He thought.

He makes himself bigger, and continues on his way again.

He stomped on straight ahead, hoping to find his destination. His feet were already hurting. They were quite sore despite the flaky skin, and wet, because the landscapes were more swamp than grass.

After some time he arrived at a strange place. He smelled something. The smell seemed familiar to him. He followed him, the smell grew stronger, and worse. It smelled disgusting, a sweet-smelling stench he knew only too well: rotting flesh.

He saw the carcass of a huge animal. It had a greenish coat and looked similar to a water buffalo, only it was much bigger. Something feed from the buffalo.

Spacegodzilla had a bad feeling, he took his fighting stance. He could only tell the buffalo was moving, as if a giant crocodile or something were eating from it.

Then the hunter showed up. It was a lizard-like animal, it had a white head that was protected by a bone armor, and, like an orca, the animal had a large spot just before his eyes. Only it was different from an Orka, not white. The whole body was black and allglass, and only the skull was white. It had no arms and only two legs with feet similar to those of a dinosaur, with three toes and claws.

The animal groweld at Spacegodzilla. Quickly showed several rows of sharp teeth, and a long, split tongue.

"Skull crawler." Said Spacegodzilla.

The skull crawler stormed toward him. It extended its long tongue like a chameleon and grabbed Spacegodzilla's arm.

He tried to get away, but despite the rather narrow stature, the animal had a lot of power.
Spacegodzilla saw no other way out and bit into the tongue.

The animal pulled it back abruptly and screamed in pain.

The animal roared again and ran around Spacegodzilla. It was very agile and fast, so he quickly lost sight of it. Then suddenly he felt a stinging pain in the neck. The skull crawler had bitten his neck. Spacegodzilla tried to get away but it was very difficult. He discovered something.

From a distance he saw a huge wooden wall, the village of the native people, where he wanted to go.

Now he finally managed to get rid of the skull crawler. He did not want to fight anymore. He ran to the wall as fast as he could. The skull crawler was close at his heels.

A few meters in front of the wall, he saw a gap, it would be small enough if he would be small. But then it would be easy prey for the skull crawler.

He was risking it.

He made himself smaller while running. He slipped on his back even closer to the gap.

The skull crawler came closer, he opened his mouth.

Spacegodzilla came just short throw the gap, just before the skull crawler snapped him.
The skull crawler popped against the wall. Spacegodzilla stand up. He heard the skull creaking softly whined, and slowly disappeared.

"Haha, got it you stupid liazrd!"

But when he turned around, he saw some people pointing him with a spear. They all looked more Asian and had many facial cuts. They were through and through typical native people .

However, they did not talk. They showed no emotion. But you could tell, they were very surprised that suddenly a Kaiju was in their village, and even almost as big as them.

"Hey chill guys I'm looking for your king, I'm the brother of Godzilla, he needs his help."

One man looked at another, the other nodded. The men took the lock back. The man who showed himself to be the leader of the group emerged from the group.

"Well, I do not want to fight, but I have to talk to your king."

The man nods again, indicating that Spacegodzilla should follow them.

The men and others went on ahead, Spacegodzilla followed them. He was guarded all the time. They went through a village. Everyone in the village looked at him confusedly, never before had they seen something like him. People all had an emotionless look, but you could always recognized what they thought.

They arrived at a ship. It was already very old, it rusted heavily, and plants overgrew it.
The man pointed to an entrance.

"He's in it?" The man nodded. Spacegodzilla looked at the entrance. When he had passed through the village, he had noticed that the tents, which were mainly made of straw, had very small entrance. People did not seem to be very tall here general. But the entrance was compared very large, larger than an ordinary door. Spacegodzilla could go through without any problems, he did not even have to to crouch .

Spacegodzilla entered the room. It was wet and dripping from the ceiling, but it smelled quite normal. The ship had a few cracks through the light came throw. Paintings of the monsters and the island could be seen on the walls and some strange structures.

Then he finally saw him. You could not see much, only the legs and arms were show due to the shadows. They were hairy and black, as well as the leathery feet and hands.

"You wanted to talk to me?" He said in a low voice. Spacegodzilla got a little nervous. He was the brother of the King of the Monsters, but that was the King of Skull Island. He decided what was happening on his island.

"Uhm yes. I am Spacegodzilla's brother of- "" Godzilla." He interrupted him. "Yes exactly. Anyway, I came because- " " Godzilla disappeared or was kidnapped." He laughed slightly sarcastically. Spacegodzilla was getting a bit annoyed. The king took a bowl of water that stood beside his throne. After he took a sip, he talked again.

"Godzilla came to me, if that happened. I did not think he needed my help, but I gave him my intercession. "

"So that means you're in?" "Yeah." "Well then we can-" "Wait." He interrupted Spacegodzilla again. Now the king of Skull Island got up from his trohn.

He was a tall, upright and walking gorilla. Even though he does not look too threatening compared to the other monsters, he is one of the few that could stand up to Godzilla.

"I heard that there is a skullcrawler outside the walls. The one you have luring. " " Hey, I just defended my life, I have a lot to lose." Spacegodzilla countered a bit annoyed.

"You have already lost your honor, now you have to eliminate it." "What? Hey, i do not care about my honor, I do not have not much time and my brother is in the middle of Akuno."

"You will eliminate him, or I will not go with you." The king said. Spacegodzilla growled annoyed. "Fine, I'll do it." The king nodded.

The two went through the village again. The peopels looked and always followed the two, it was very unusual that the king went from his throne.

They arrived at the wall, again at the place where Spacegodzilla came in. He looked through the hole, and spotted the angry Skullcrawler roaring and trudging in circles.

"Do I really have to do that?" Spacegodzilla asked. The king nodded. "I'll watch it on the wall."
He climbed down the wall while Spacegodzilla walked through the crack.

"Why do I settle for something like that. I would much rather sit down with a steak of a good wine, and my favorite Niki at a table. But noooope. I have to go through the thickest jungle and then play exterminator for that stupid monkey." He thought as he walked through the gab.

As soon as he was outside the skull crawler turned to him. "Oh damn no." The Skullcrawler ran up to him and roard. "There we go." Spacegodzilla stormed towards him as well. Just before the two met, Spacegodzilla got bigger, and hit the Skull crawler against the head.

The Skullcrawler bounced back, but was still not beaten. He quickly gets to his feet and stretched his tongue back to Spacegodzilla's arm. In a flash, he had bitten his arm.

It hurt, but he could still fight. Spacegodzilla had an idea. He conjured a crystal from the ground. It costs him strength, so that the skull crawler wrestled him to the ground.

The skull crawler stood on his chest. The bloody mouth, with many sharp teeth came closer and closer to Spacegodzillas head. It stank horribly of decaying flesh and saliva.

Spacegodzilla tried to hold his mouth with his arms, so that he would still keep his head. The skull crawler but judged himself and reached out with his claws, which narrowly missed.

"Nhg, DIE DAMN." He grabbed the skull crawler and popped his head on the crystal.

Spacegodzilla threw away the dead body. He was a little exhausted and did not want to fight again. He shrank down, lay on his back, and relaxed once. The scent of the dead Skull crawler was right next to him, but he did not care, he just wanted his peace now.

The king came down to him. The king inspected the dead skullcrawler. "Interesting , a nice strategy." Spacegodzilla growled again annoyed. "Do not annoye me." The king smiled. "You deserve a break. You have restored your honor and also defeated one of the most dangerous creatures. I pay you my respect." The king bowed briefly.

Spacegodzilla sighed, and stood up. "Can we go now?" He nodded.

Spacegodzilla opened a time portal. "After you, er-" "Kong."

Present, Infant Island

King Ghidorah finally arrived at the island. He had flown unintentionally, and had already flown an hour.

He was now on the beach, the sun was shining on him, the golden scales glittering through it. He had been here only very rarely, he had to first find the way to the temple.

He stomped around the beach for a while, hoping to see the temple, but it seemed to be centered on the island. After about half an hour he was done, the sun had already reached the peak. He sits down and tries to regulate his body temperature. It was summer, the hottest time of the year, but it seemed a lot hotter than normal this time.

Suddenly he realized how his stomach rumbled slightly. He was hungry and a bit thirsty too. He went to the sea and put one of his three heads in the water. It was nice and cool, and he felt better. He took a sip of water. It tasted very salty, but it did not bother him. For a human, the water would be toxic, but the dragon did not mind.

When he was done, he heard a few sounds a little further out in the sea.
It was a whale just emerging to catch a breath. Ghidorah saw this as an opportunity to satisfy his hunger.

He went into the water and went under. Even though he had wings to fly, he was able to swim very well. He was pretty deep, it was already slightly dark. He thrust foward with his wings. He was now under the whale. He was only slightly taller than the animal, but it was still easy prey.

He posed under the whale and was ready to attack.

But then he saw something. The animal was not alone, a small one swim next to it. It was a cub. It was swimming very close to his mother. The animals are usually born at this time of year, the young may have been just a few weeks old.

Ghidorah realized that the two swam very fast, which meant that an predator needed to be nearby. He glanced behind the whales and saw three big orcas. They were some of the few predators who could become dangerous to a whale.

Ghidorah listened to his good heart. He lunged forward and opened his three jaws. Within seconds, he grabbed the Three Orkas and killed them briefly and Painless.

After he finished his meal, he reappeared. He burst out of the water and flew up. The warm air dried him quickly, and he went even further.

"From here I should have to see it better."

He looked across the island and saw a temple in a northern part.

King Ghidorah did not hesitate and made a nosedive in the direction.
He was flying down at an incredible speed. The goal came closer and closer. He tried to slow down with the wings, but he was already too fast.

He crashed into a few trees near the temple.

Everything became black shortly. He felt one of his wings hurt slithgly. He sighed and tried to get up.

"Ghidorah is that you?" He heard a soft voice. He opened his eyes.

A big moth hovered in front of him. She had very large, very colorful wings. Her body was mostly covered with a kind of white fur. Her eyes were quite big and diamond blue.

"Mothra? Nice to see you again." She chuckled. "What's so funny?" "Oh no, you just fell in the middle of the garden." "What?"

Ghidorah looked around. In fact, he was in the middle of a large garden where some cherry trees stood. He had blown away a few on his crash landing.

"I-I'm sorry Mothra, shall I clean it up again?" He asked shyly. "No, I hope only Battra will agree, it was her part of the garden."

Battra was Mothras, dark sister, similar to Zepar and Ronwe, only both were on the good side.

"Why are you here anyway?" She asked him. King Ghidorah stood up. "I want to discuss that with you in peace." "Good, come in my temple, but do not break anything." She chuckled, she had a happy outing like Kyra.

"Do I have to scale down?" "No."

As the two entered the temple, King Ghidorah thought.
"I have to get that over easy. The last time she had anything to do with Godzilla, that was not so good. She is actually very happy, but that can change quickly. Who would have thought that she would crush on Godzilla? Well, more likely than Zoe, but Godzilla never had anything left for her and she always kept it from him. When he went to look for Zoe, she was severely depressed, and if that's true what Godzilla said about Kyra ... well, good that she's over it. Hopefully."

Deep in thought, he did not notice how they entered the magnificent temple made of stone.

"So we are here, so what did you want to discuss?" Mothra said. Ghidorah was completely surprised.

"Uhm yes, do not you want to drink something?" "Yes why not." She swam over to a hot spring. She took two wooden bowls and poured water into it. She placed the bowls next to a stone, so that Ghidorah get it.

"So, well, what's new." "Mothra, it's a little serious." "Okay, what's this about?"
"It's about Godzilla."

Mothra was quiet for a while, and then spoke frantically, "W-what Godzilla? What is it about? Did he ask for me? "" Not quite."

Mothra sighed in despair. "So he is kidnapped." Mothra looked at him in disbelief. "You do not want to tell me that Godzilla was kidnapped?" "Yes, and we have a plan on how to get back to him, but we need your help."

King Ghidorah hoped he would not say anything wrong. But Mothra seemed happy."Yes I will help, I have to do that." "Well, Battra should come with you or-" "I'll leave her a message."

"Well, I'll just wait outside for you." King Ghidorah went outside.

Mothra shrank. Her small form was completely different from her real one. She was a kind of human, Kaiju Hybride, much like Zoe. Her skin was normal colored, her hair was blond, and she had her blue eyes. She still had her wings and feelers normal to a moth.

She went to a smaller part of the temple. It was a small dwelling, as for a human. She went in, it was not really that special, a bench and a table with two chairs. It was all made of stone, like the rest of the temple.

She went to the bank, which put her aside. Under the bench was an old book, a photo book.
She opened the book and looked at a few of the pictures, she got a slight smile on her face. She hugged the book and happily danced around the temple. "Yes, finally, hopefully I can prove myself for him." She wanted to help her crush.

But then she was interrupted. "Mothra!" "Battra?" Mothra turned around, a woman who looked very similar to her stood in front of her, only her hair was black and she had rotten eyes. As well as their wings were not colorful but black with a few flashes on it.

"Battra, what are you doing here?" "Watching you." "You've seen everything." Mothra blushed slightly.

"Yes, and I will come with you." "What? Why? "" Because I do not want the story to repeat, and I will not abandon my little sister. "" Thank you Battra. "

Battra touched Mothra's shoulder. "Please do not worry too much." "Okay." "
Mothra said, with two crossed fingers behind her back.

The two transformed in there Kaiju form and went with Ghidorah into the future.
