"You mentioned you remember your mother..." Shirigami looked up from his notes and up to Godzilla. 'Do you know what happened to her?' Godzilla looked out to the horizon, turning his head to the left. Miku turned to Shirigami.
"He says he doesn't know anything about his biological mother but he remembers his adoptive mother: a human scientist called Azusa Gojo." Miku informed Shirigami. "Do you know her, Shirigami? She must be a big name in the kaiju field." Godzilla looked back to Shirigami.
"I'm sorry... I don't know of an Azusa Gojo. I've never heard of her nor have I read anything about a kaiju specialist by that name. The only explanation I could offer is that she's on the GDF's classified VIP list, otherwise I'd of known about her." Shirigami wasn't telling the whole truth. Godzilla narrowed his eyes. Shirigami looked over his shoulder: making sure the chopper pilot wouldn't hear. "Okay..." Shirigami turned back to Godzilla. "I shouldn't be saying this but I do know her. She is on the classified VIP list however. She works at a top secret research facility known as Area K. Only the council, Commander Tagaki and a select few scientists such as myself know about it: but only the council know what they do there. I was once offered a place at Area K but I turned it down, I'm not one for the really top secret things. I've already said too much, but it's for Godzilla so I won't regret it."
'Then I am right... she is safe... that's all I wanted to know... but... I would like to see her again one day.' Godzilla's frown disappeared and he felt a sense of relief. Miku smiled.
"I'm sure Shirigami could make that small request for you." Miku chuckled. A sweat drop rolled down Shirigami's brow.
"Heh... I..." Godzilla tilted his head as Shirigami nudged his tie left and right. "I'll put in a good word for you, Godzilla: see if we could arrange a visit. I'm sure Azusa would love to see you again, in person. I know she keeps a photo of you, her and Miki Saegusa with her." Shirigami sighed.
"Oh that's sweet." Miku commented. Godzilla smiled.
"Dr Shirigami, Sergeant Miku..." The helicopter pilot was rushing over to them. Miku and Shirigami turned to him, Godzilla looking over to the man. "We need to return to HQ... the Vortaak have launched a full-scale invasion. Major cities around the world are being attacked as we speak: the GDF is on crisis level 5."
"Those bastards." Miku clenched her fists.
"They're persistent, you have to give them that." Shirigami replied. Godzilla stood up and began to walk away.
"Where's the big guy going?" The pilot asked. Miku smiled as Godzilla stomped.
"He's going to get the gang ready." Miku answered.
[Area K]
'Yes... yes! The time has come! War! Strife! Pestilence! Gather! Death brings with him the power I need to cleanse this planet! Gather and come to me! I will soon be free! Together we will crush those who would stand against us and deny us this world!' The 150 metre class kaiju frozen in ice, held within Area K, contacted Destroyah, Battra and Hedorah: summoning them to him. His power level began to slowly rise and his eyes glowed blood red. Azusa was in her office, sat at her desk, at the time when the lights began to flicker and her computer turned off. She looked up from her paperwork with concern: there was never any power issues at the facility, they had the best technology on the planet at Area K. Azusa picked up the phone on her desk and inputted a short set of numbers.
"Command, there's an issue with the power. What's going on?"
"The whole base is going haywire... we're just receiving reports that the Vortaak have commenced a full scale invasion. Tokyo; New York, London, Sydney, Hong Kong are all under attack."
"Mother of..."
"We're also getting strong readings from the kaiju."
"Pull the maintenance team out of there! Evacuate the facility. Contact GDF HQ. Now!" Azusa exclaimed.
"We can't just..." The line was cut off. The power had went out. Azusa put the phone. She took a deep breath and reached for the framed photograph on her desk, picking it up in her right hand. She stroked her left hand over the glass, over Baby Godzilla's face.
"You make me so proud..." Azusa whispered.
"The ice is melting! Everybody run!" One of the maintenance workers in the vault exclaimed from the catwalk in front of the frozen kaiju. Cracks began to appear in the ice. "Oh god no..." The maintenance worke muttered.
"Unidentified extra-terrestrial kaiju 1 is breaking free, repeat, UETK-1 is breaking free. Evacuate the facility, this is not a drill." The warning rang out through Area K via the PA system. Finally the top half of the ice shattered and the 150 metre class kaiju could move once more. The kaiju narrowed its eyes whilst shaking ice shards off of its shoulders and grabbing hold of the catwalk in front of it with its left hand: tearing it down before creating a blade of yellow energy around and extending from its right arm. The kaiju opened its mouth.
"My name is... BAGAN!" With a demonic, thundering voice Bagan (Godzilla Movie Studio Tour design) spoke, having learned english through hacking the human database at the facility when they hooked him up to it for study, slicing the catwalk in half with his energy blade before breaking his legs and lower half free from the rest of the ice. Bagan opened his mouth and out shot a white plasma beam that tore through the walls and blew apart the front of Azusa's office. A trio of maser turrets fired at Bagan but he let loose another blast of his plasma beam and obliterated them, and the humans running for safety, before turning to his left. Two ridges extended from Bagan's shoulder blades and from them spewed purple energy wings as Bagan jumped up: the cyborg-kaiju shooting forwards at mach 1 and blasting off down the huge tunnel on the left hand side of the vault.
Bagan burst out of the large domed entrance to Area K, flipping around in mid-air before crashing down onto the snow covered ice below, energy wings disappearing and ridges retracting back into his shoulder blades. Bagan growled as he raised his head up and Gigan landed in the burning rubble behind him.
'I live to serve you, Lord Bagan...' Gigan communicated through telepathy. Bagan could sense the Dark Crystals... they were far from antarctica.
"Where are the Dark Crystals?" Bagan snarled, flexing the claws on his left hand before clenching said hand into a fist. Gigan felt an overwhelming sense of fear.
'Queen Vorticia of the Vortaak hosts the Dark Crystals. She is in a human city known as Hong Kong as we speak, aboard her mothership.' Gigan informed his master.
"You fail me yet again, Gigan..." Bagan growled, unclenching his left fist and clenching his right. Bagan turned on Gigan, dashing over to him and grabbing him by the throat. "Perhabs I should feed on your heart to replenish my power..."
'Lord... Bagan... Please!' Gigan struggled and squirmed.
"Humph... weak." Bagan threw Gigan aside. "I will spare you for now but do not fail me again, Gigan. Come... War, Strife and Pestilence are not far: they will meet us on the way to Hong Kong..."
[Monster Island]
Godzilla looked to Arstron as all of the Earth Defenders gathered at the bay area. They had been waiting for the humans to unleash them to help fight off the Vortaak but Bagan's escape from Area K had sent a shiver down everyone's spine: they felt his presence but knew nothing about him. Arstron nodded to Godzilla. It was as they had forseen: an evil like no other. The Earth was once again in grave danger.
'Are we to just stand around as we wait for the humans to let us out like animals?' Millennium broke the telepathic silence.
'Patience.' King Caesar advised. A sudden feeling of loss crept into Godzilla's heart for reasons he could not understand, and his breathing slowed as he the feeling grew worse.
'Godzilla... are you okay?' Anguirus asked his best friend, taking a step forwards and looking up to him.
'No waiting... I have to check something.' Godzilla rushed forward.
'Alright, more like it.' Millennium followed close behind before Anguirus; Rodan, Mothra, Varan, King Caesar, Baragon, Zilla Jr, Arstron, Manda and Legendary Godzilla all rushed forward as well.
