3rd Annual Disney/Toho Kaiju Music Video Awards
By: DJ Rodriguez
(Author's Notes: Hey everyone! How are you all doing! I hope that all of you are doing well and are enjoying the day as best you can. I am a bit disappointed that I did not see certain people reviewing the special… but I am patient, and I just hope that they are okay.
Before I say or do anything else, I wish to give praise and honor to the Lord. Thank you God for looking after me, my family and my friends. I still pray and look to you Jesus for strength, courage, conviction, confidence, joy, mercy, love and grace. And I ask that you do the same for my loved ones, my friends and the people all over the world that need you more than ever.
The world is still very much topsy-turvy, and not in a good way at all. Lord, I ask you to help us stay firm and true to you. That myself and others who follow you stay strong against adversity, look to you for guidance against obstacles that come in our way & for the wisdom to counter the toxic lies and foolish ways of man.
I also hope to see the end of this pandemic nightmare, that the COVID and ALL of its variants are eliminated from the equation of life for good on all levels. To this day, I still do not believe that the plague or its variants are even natural to begin with.
I also hope and pray to see the end of the New Normal & Do The Five Thing. I want to see the people willingly and joyfully throwing off and away their masks, establishments saying that there is no need to wear them anymore. With distancing becoming a thing of the past, as people come together like before for many occasions like at parks, stadiums, conventions, etc. That isolation is no longer needed or necessary, where people go about anywhere they want as long as they do abide by certain travel rules. Where the plastic barriers and windows that had cropped up are put away, where we can all talk or meet someone without anything like that separating us. No more contactless actions/services & no more virtual/online substitutions!
And best of all… no more fear/paranoia/anxiety/doubt/hesitation/laziness/greed. That all of us recognize and realize the many small, subtle but significant things in everything that we used to take for granted before this COVID nightmare stated. And to never take those things for granted EVER again.
I want to make another serious announcement here. My Author friend ChimaTigon… he told me that he lost his mother a few days ago. So I wish for all of you here to please pray for my friend, that he and his family manage to get through this very tough time. I also pray that his mother is in Heaven, in Paradise with the Father and Son.
And also… just lost my Tia Michelle Motley as well. Sigh… please pray for her and the family. I seriously wish right now that this damned plague known as COVID did not exist at all.
I have finished another letter to the Walt Disney Animation Studios company, but will send it as soon as this special here is done. Even though it might be returned back to me unopened like the last couple of times, or even completely ignored like the last times as well… I still have faith and belief that my Disney/Toho novels and specials are what both companies need.
Any kind of assistance in getting their attention would be most welcome. Also, hoping to see fan art that showcases my works by anyone who is willing to do so, and also looking for anyone who is willing to do YouTube video reviews of my works.
I would also like to say this. I like to thank you all for the kind words and more that you have shown to me, but just so you all know… I am not a genius of any kind. I am just a decent writer who is learning to become better, and also having a lot of help from Jesus Christ and His Father. He gave me the gift of imagination, and I hope to use it wisely in His name.
On another note, I would like to advertise for my Author friends once more. For FanficThinker and his Dragonball Z story called Trials of a Wolf, Data Seeker and his story Cartoons All Stars to the Rescue Rewritten & Adventures of the Little Possible & pinkstoryteller with her amazing works concerning Godzilla and others that she has crossed over with a wonderful kind of genius that deserves much reviews and recognition!
The stories by these Authors deserve much praise and reviews, so please go and take a look at them.
On a final note, I again hope to see some good news come back into this world. And also, I hope and pray to see my Disney/Toho works being recognized in a very positive light by both companies. And that they will be made into classic Disney and Toho movies the way I have envisioned it.
To Daniel Garza Rodriguez Sr.- Beloved husband/father/uncle/grandfather/brother/friend to those who knew him very well! Devoted follower of Jesus Christ! Born October 10th 1960, Called Up December 27th 2020!
To Carman- Awesome believer and follower of Jesus Christ, passionate and true singer and performer of the Truth, devoted, family member & servant of God! Born January 19th 1956, Called Up February 16th 2021!
No slash, femme-slash or trans beings or actions will be shown in this or any of my works. This I am VERY serious about! See my Profile to see who I am and what I believe in.
I cannot please everyone, nor do I ever wish to. I believe in the words of my pastor Rick Godwin from Summit Christian Center at San Antonio and it is this: If you try to please everyone, you lose yourself entirely. So while others may not be pleased, it is what it is. My aim is not to please all, but to write a worthwhile special. No more, no less.

Also, NO live-action remakes of any kind are in my stories, not even in this one. I only like/love the classic, original and REAL animated Disney movies and cartoons I grew up with as a kid. These new remakes/reboots of that are up now… no way! This is my stance, and I am sticking to it with conviction!
To see info on certain characters here, please look at any of my previous Monsters and Magic novels or other House of Mouse/Godzilla crossover specials.
Also, will be giving my OC names from the website 20000-NAMES, as I have done in my previous stories. Each name is linked to a different nation, and has a different meaning. To see what they mean, go to website to look it up.

Now, on with the special!)
The House of Mouse was alive with various beings mingling and having a good time at the dinner theater club, even the various bad guys and girls were enjoying themselves… even though the antics of certain ones were rising up now and then, but soon cleared up in that special kind of way that made the formal music video event even more enjoyable. The newcomers were getting acquainted with the many guests that had come to the establishment to enjoy many Disney/Toho events.
Right now, the Electric Mayhem were playing a country song called Baby Your Baby that came from legendary country music singer George Strait. Dr. Teeth was doing well so far as he sang the lyrics to the song, showing that he was quite the versatile Muppet leader and vocalist. Many husbands were dancing with their wives, boyfriends with their girlfriends & also friends with certain crushes.

Amy Rose was dancing with DJ, the young man offering himself to dance with her as his lady love Claudette was talking with her sisters Laurette & Paulette. The pink hedgehog accepted, and it looked like she was having the time of her life with the Hispanic Author as they danced to the song.
During the dance, DJ looked to the lovely anthro beauty and stated softly, "Sonic is one big fool for letting a lovely little lady slip through his fingers.".
She blushed from the praise, but replied in a sad tone, "Thanks but… sigh… Sonic just likes to go on adventures and not be tied down. I thought that I could be with him by showing him how much I care… but…".
DJ knew that Amy was often ridiculed, mocked and more by many fanbase beings for her actions towards the high-speeding hedgehog hero of Mobius. So he decided to help her out by telling her this as they danced, "Well, it's his loss then. You are a beautiful woman Amy, and not just in the physical sense. You are devoted, strong, loyal, faithful, determined and enduring. You have the qualities of a real woman that any man would love to have at their side! And if Sonic cannot see that, then it's his loss. And I believe you can find a good man that will respect, love and appreciate the living & breathing priceless blessing that you are.".
Amy's green eyes watered a little from DJ's declaration, than she just hugged him tight as they continued to dance to the music. She whispered to him in a grateful tone, "Thank you… just… thank you so much for that, DJ!".
He smiled and replied back in a genuine tone, "Hey, just saying what is true. So hang in there Amy. One day, you will find the man who treat you right, well and true.".
The two continued to dance, watching them was a certain anthro bat who was looking on with a genuine smile on her face. She briefly visualized that it was her and a certain red echidna that was dancing like so, being close to one another in many good ways. She than sighed and said to herself, "One day Knuckles… one day, I hope that will be me and you dancing like those two are. And it will be more than just as friends.".
While the couples were dancing to the song, all kinds of other activity were happening all over the place.
At the HoM Souvenir Shop, Raphael was getting some mini-pizzas for him and Kaoru. The two were really bonding, the teenage mutant ninja teenager telling the Japanese counterpart to Buttercup that she was excellent when it came to fighting. And also that despite being a tomboy, that she looked cute and liked tough girls who knew how to have fun and fight.
This brought a blush to the little lady who loved sports & was not afraid to scrap with the best of them.
Once the mini-pizzas were done cooking in a special microwave that was behind the counter, Clara Cluck gave them to Raph. She told him, "And don't worry! Since you are a newcomer, it's on the house for tonight!". The red-bandana ninja thanked the classic opera-singing hen, taking the four small pepperoni pizza on a paper plate & going back to Kaoru who was waiting for him outside the small shop.
Raph went to her and stated, "Here you go! Two for me, two for you!". She blushed lightly with a small smile on. She was going to take a piece of the pizza… when suddenly, two light-brown, dark-brown blurs sped in front of them! It surprised the Muppet turtle and the anime girl so much… but more so when they saw that all four of their mini-pizzas were gone!
Kaoru exclaimed in a bit of anger and surprise, "Hey! What's the big idea?! Who did that!?".
Two voices that seemed to be in sync spoke up, "Purr… we did!". The duo looked to see that the blurs from earlier were Si and Am, the twin Siamese cats from the Disney 1955 animation film Lady and the Tramp! And in their mouths, the two fighters saw that they had stolen their pizzas!
Si and Am smirked wickedly at the two before taking off, Kaoru growling and chasing after them while exclaiming, "Hey, you dirty little thieves! Come back here! Come back here now!".
Raphael called out, "Hey Kaoru! Wait for me! I want a piece of them too!". So a merry chase started between the two beings who loved to fight, and certain felines who loved to cause mischief and mayhem.
Nearby, the versatile, and often the first one getting blown to scrap/crushed into thin metal/electrified beyond measure Predacon that went by the name Waspinator was currently talking to three wacky characters from different worlds. He was conversing with legendary star Roger Rabbit, the hilarious bat from Ferngully known as Batty Koda & the albino Russian bat known as Bartok.
The large Cybertroinan wasp spoke to the trio, "So, you're saying that people like it when Waspinator gets damaged and turned into scrap? That is good thing?".
The anthro rabbit grinned big time and answered in his usual enthusiastic tone, "Of course, big guy! Making people laugh and smile is one of the best things to do! And also, I know what it's like to be put through the ringer. But it doesn't bother me much, and as long as it gets a laugh out of people, than its all worth it!".
Batty added in, "The rabbit is right, even though he has been dropped from great heights above, pancaked by a safe or anvil, almost getting stabbed with multiple pointy things & being knocked unconscious by a frying pan to the head. Making people smile and laugh, that is what makes us all artists!". He spoke the last part dramatically and with flair, putting a French kind of impression on the artists' part.
Bartok finished it up, "Even though these two are certifiable goofballs, they have their moments. And trust me when I say this Mr. Large Wasp Robot, the sidekick/minion thing is only a stepping stone to something bigger and better. Trust me on that.".
Waspinator looked pensive, thinking about what the trio had been telling him ever since they did start to converse. He then asked, "Well, Waspinator would like to see people appreciate Waspinator more. But does being funny have benefits?".
In a way, he was answered when a sultry and very alluring voice called out, "Roger darling, do you mind coming with me to the HoM Souvenir Shop? I would like to pick out something for our future bundle of joy.".
The four turned to where the voice was coming from… and Waspinator's jaw just unhinged open at seeing the walking, lovely form of Jessica Rabbit, the wife of Roger Rabbit & a singer who could bring down the house with her sultry tones and very killer body! And indeed, Jessica was expecting! She did not show it yet due being early in her pregnancy stages, but she was with child! It seems that she and Roger finally managed to have children.
The one thought that ran through Waspinator's CPU was this, 'This lovely fleshie bot this mate to strange rabbit bot?!'.
Said wacky rabbit smiled brightly at seeing his lady love, getting out of his chair and now standing with his wife who was quite loyal to him. He answered to her with a genuine grin and tone, "Of course my sweet Jessica! Whatever you want, I shall do!".
The redheaded bombshell of a beauty smiled warmly at her hubby, then looked up to see the others. Her gaze turned to Waspinator, who shut his jaw and was ramrod straight as he was now being looked upon by a real beauty. Even though she was flesh and blood, not metallic, he thought that she looked wonderful.
Jessica smiled, extending her hand out to the Predacon. Waspinator managed to get some of his software back on, reaching out and shaking the hand of the redheaded beauty. Jessica spoke warmly, "Nice to meet you. I hope that you are enjoying your time here at the House of Mouse.".
Waspinator merely nodded, again entranced by the beauty of the flesh and blood woman. After the two released their hands, Jessica looked down to her wacky husband & the two walked away with Roger's arm around the lithe waist of his wife.
When they were a good distance away, Waspinator quickly turned to his new acquaintances with a look of pure disbelief, pointed his left finger at the couple and exclaimed, "Sexy fleshie bot is mate to that rabbit bot?!".
The two bats chuckled at that, understanding that those who met the couple for the first time would be surprised that someone like Roger would manage to get himself a very fine little lady. Of course, those that knew said couple well also knew that Jessica was much… MUCH more than just a pretty face with a voice like a siren.
Batty replied, "Yup! And you want to know the best part of it? It's that here in the cartoon world, its Jessica that is considered by many women to be lucky to snag Roger. As it turns out, making someone laugh is a big turn on for many of the ladies.".
Waspinator was again confused on how making others laugh would make any male attractive to other females. He was about to ask a question when another alluring female voice called out, "Oh boys, we found you!".
All turned and looked upwards to see a female Egyptian Fruit Bat & another albino Russian bat swooping down to them. The species of megabat found in Africa was dark brown, a slight shade darker than Batty, hair black as midnight without a full moon that was Egyptian style, her underbelly a pale brown with a yellowish-brown collar of fur around her neck… and also sporting a very visible sign that she was female, having a bust that was quite ample and in a certain way, on par with Jessica Rabbit's amazing bust! Around her neck was an amulet that had the Eye of Ra on it, exactly as shown on the Millennium Puzzle that hung around the neck of Yugi Motou.
She had black eyes, set in an Egyptian style that gave her more of an exotic look that got Batty's heart pumping & his ear wear sparking like mad with electricity that actually formed small hearts in the air!
The female albino Russian bat was a light-pink color, but had the same eye color of Bartok & was also quite feminine in form.
The fine female Egyptian fruit bat flew over to Batty, landing next to him and giving him a deep kiss on the lips that made him go ramrod straight and his earpiece sparking like mad! And amazingly, the lady bat did not mind this at all. The female Russian bat gave a kiss to Bartok as well, not as deep but still quite lovingly. Once the boys were released from the kiss, they both had smiling, goofy expressions on their faces that displayed to all that they REALLY enjoyed the kiss.
Waspinator looked at the female bats and inquired, "Ummm… hello there. Who are you?".
The Egyptian bat looked to the metallic wasp with a warm smile and answered, "Oh, hello there. My name is Thandiwe, wife to this cute little crackpot here.". At the last part, she wrapped her large wing over Batty and pulled him into her for a hug.
Thandiwe was a friend of Foxglove, and also was a student of the magical arts. But while Foxglove was more of a witch in the American sense, Thandiwe was a priestess-magician. She understood the nature of climate, the various forms of energy in the universe & the functions of material objects. She could control the forces of nature to a certain degree, and also on a small scale thanks to an object that was passed down from generation to generation.
It was the amulet, one that had been blessed by the Egyptian sorcerers of old. But it had a special feature that only allowed those with good, strong hearts to use it fully. Those with bad or ill intent could only use a small fraction of its power.
She understood how control of the forces impacted the perception of the mind and consciousness of others, fulfilling her role by exercising her impressive intellect while discerning a way forward for the others to follow.
Some time ago during a Disney/Toho Movie Night event, Foxglove had introduced her friend to Batty. For Batty, it was love at first sight. However, he had to prove himself to Thandiwe & he did just that! However, what really sealed the deal was that his antics made her laugh loud and true! While Thandiwe was friendly and all, none have ever been able to make her laugh, let alone how she had just exploded with rich & melodious laughter.
The two had gone out on many dates, getting to know each other more and more. And soon… the two were married, and in the rainforest of Ferngully, with Crysta being the one to bind them together!
The female albino Russian bat looked to Waspinator and added, "And my name is Efrosinia, wife to Bartok here. Nice to meet you, sir.".
The Predacon insect was flabbergasted as the goofy ones had mates that were very fine to the eyes. Thandiwe looked to her mate and whispered, "Honey, the buffet brought back all those wonderful fruits. How about me and you go get some before they are all gone, huh?". Her voice was like the sweetest of honey and nectar to Batty, his heart beating fast… and you can actually see it as it was thumping hard through his chest.
Efrosinia looked to Bartok and whispered to him, "Dear, how about we go back up to our table on the 1st floor? It's getting a bit noisy here.".
Both male bats nodded to their respective mates, Batty and Thandiwe heading towards the Thanksgiving buffet table, Bartok and Efrosinia flying back to the 1st floor area.
Waspinator was very much astounded on what he had just witnessed, saying to himself, "Hmmm… maybe Waspinator can find happiness like that too. But… will Waspinator find mate as well if Waspinator does not really mind getting to be blown to scrap just to make people laugh?".
He got his answer when a soft female voice called out from behind him, "Excuse me, are you Waspinator?".
The Predacon turned around and saw the lovely form of Luna Mothews, a Monster Girl from the realm of Monster High! She is the daughter of the Moth Man, and also a rising star on Bloodway with her singing and acting performance. The human/monster hybrid was looking in awe at the insect robot, showing that she was quite interested in him.
She exclaimed, "Oh my, it is you! The famous Waspinator, flier for the Predacons! Oh, it's an honor to meet you in person! Oh, you always make me and my friends laugh at seeing what you have to go through with that Megatron character!".
It would seem that Waspinator had a fan in the lovely insect lady, the Predacon thinking to himself, 'Its official! I am going to make people laugh! I may not rise up in rank, but after seeing this fan… don't care at all!'. It would be the start of a beautiful friendship between robotic wasp & alluring flesh and blood moth girl.
In another part of the room, three friends were conversing with one another. It was Miyako Gōtokuji, Monique Williams & Clawdeen Wolf-Rosenblatt. The trio were discussing a new line for Monique and Clawdeen's Wolf and Williams Disney/Toho Fashion Line shop, and were looking at a certain character who was nearby talking with Mr. & Mrs. Synder. The character they were looking at… was the legendary 1930s character Dick Tracy, from the 1990's Buena Vista Pictures movie of the same name!
Miyako put in, "Wow! That guy looks incredible with that yellow overcoat and fedora hat! I think I remember seeing him in either old American comics, and also that 1990s movies that Dreams showed to me and the girls some time ago.".
Monique remarked, "Yup. That is Dick Tracy, a police detective who is dedicated to his work and also is liked by two ladies. One of them is a blonde singer named Breathless Mahoney, and a redhead named Tess Trueheart.".
Clawdeen stated, "I have to say, his attire is retro but in a good way. It's classic, timeless and has a certain kind of substance/charm that is rare to find now. Maybe if we give it just a touch of modern flair, it could really work!".
The trio than started to go over plans on what to do for the next few months or so, going over male, female and children wear for the next year. And also designing fashion for anthros, non-humans, hybrids, spirits and more as well. Monique put in that since retro was coming back, both in the real and animated world, they should focus on clothing that existed back in the 1900's but giving them a slight modern touch look.
While the trio of fine female fashionistas were going over their plans, in another part of the dinner theater club, another group was forming.
The powerfully built Maximal known as Rhinox was conversing with the old-timers & enlightened patrons of the establishment. While he was indeed strong and tough, the Cybertronian rhino was best known for three things. The first was his intellect, as he was both wise and smart to the point that according to Optimus, he would make 'one prime leader'. But Rhinox felt that leadership was not for him, but he was a consultant and confidant to his fellow Maximals.
Two, he was versed in the spiritual sense. He knew about the deeper aspects of meditation and balance, his mind able to come up with ways to tackle any kind of obstacle or challenge. It was made apparent when he and some of his friends were made blind by a surprise attack by Waspinator and Scorpinok.
And finally, he was patient and gentle. He though had much muscle, and could overpower almost anything with sheer brute strength, Rhinox preferred to be peaceful.
Now, he was talking to the elderly characters like Wylie Burp, old Rooter, the ancestral patriarch of the Fa family, Bagheera the panther, PPG-Z Professor Utonium, Mufasa the lion & King Morpheus of Slumberland. The group shared their experience of life with one another, and also some interesting philosophies that intrigued them.
Before more could be said, the group was met by some young ones. Coming their way was Joy from Superbook, Moki from The Greatest Adventures: Stories from the Bible, Littlefoot and his dinosaur friends, Queen Moon and Mariposa Diaz from Star Vs. but more along the lines of DJ's story & finally little Cream Rabbit with her mother Vanilla.
Joy was the first to speak as she said in a friendly tone, "Hey there! Nice to meet you!".
Rhinox was a little surprised to see young ones approaching them like so, answering in a friendly tone though, "Hello there young lady. Nice to meet you as well. What brings you all to us?".
Moki answered that question, "Well, we come over to see you Mr. Large Rhino Dude! And also to learn more from Wylie and the others.".
The large Transformer replied, "I see. And also, let's try some proper introductions first. My name is Rhinox.".
One by one, the young ones & their guardians introduced themselves to the Maximal. Once it ended with Cream, the large transformed rhino looked to his new acquaintances for some answers.
Rooter chuckled and explained, "Heh, it's a bit surprising story to tell you Rhinox. It started in February, when the club had another Disney/Toho Movie Night. DJ had dedicated the night to his father, like he is doing right now. He told everyone on how he learned much from him before he passed on, and it was there that the youngsters here came to me and others. They asked us questions, wanted to hear stories on what we've been through… it was amazing.".
Mufasa put in, "Indeed, and it is still going on. The young ones here want to learn from our stories, and to gain wisdom on our experiences in life.".
Rhinox was certainly surprised at this, since it was his experience that most young ones would rather learn on their own rather than come to those like him who had once been young… and also reckless as well, learning lessons on life and about one's self in the process. But to see children coming to them and ASKING to learn more about what the elders have experienced & gone through in life was a refreshing change of pace.
Cera asked out loud, "Say, are you really a rhino? One with only one horn? Because you have no horns and… well, you're standing on two legs.".
The Maximal chuckled at the words coming from Cera, reminding him of some of the more outgoing young Transformers back on Cybertron. He replied in an amusing tone, "I believe that I can show you the beast side of me. Observe. Beast-Mode.". His arms wiggled a little, than he changed into his animal form, which surprised the young ones & some of his new friends.
Petrie exclaimed, "Wow! He go from two-feet to four-feet! And he has two horns, not one!".
King Morpheus had an amused look on his face as he put in a tone that matched his face, "Heh, I believe that you are going to be popular around here, friend Rhinox. Heh, I believe that if you came into my kingdom of Slumberland, you would be a big hit with the citizens!".
It seemed that the potent Maximal fighter/philosopher/mechanic/inventor was indeed going to be quite popular at the House of Mouse.
Nearby, Ahsoka Tano and Barriss Offee were talking things out at a table, Author SaurusRock625 and Zim in his Darth-form watching on. The duo were looking at each other hard, some believing that a fight was about to commence. After some tense moments… the looks on both their faces slowly diminished, actually looking a bit softer now for the two. Barriss raised her hand up for a hand-shake… and Ahsoka returned the gesture!
It seemed that an agreement was made between them, the two now having buried the hatchet between them & now apparently starting off with a clean slate.
The whole place was really buzzing with activity everywhere, the song soon ending and many of the patrons clapping in appreciation and praise for the Muppet band who took their bows & waved to their fans.
Up in the balcony, Statler and Waldorf were nodding their heads while their lovely Arabian dates clapped their hands along with the rest of the crowd. The tall elderly man spoke, "I have to admit, that was a good song that Dr. Teeth sang.".
His short friend replied, "Yup. I can only hope that one day he'll sing solo.".
Statler looked to his friend in puzzlement and inquired, "Solo?".
Waldorf finished the punchline, "Yeah… so low that no one can hear him!". This got the two to do their signature laugh, their lovely Arabian dancer dates giggling as they found the joke humorous as well.
DJ heard them, looking up towards them but with a soft smile. The joke they used was something his Dad used to tell whenever he sang to songs, and hearing that made him think of his father. The Author could only hope that he was seeing all of this from Heaven.
Once it was done, coming on stage was someone new. Flying in from the air was Dani Phantom, Peter Pan by her side with Robin Synder in his arms.
The little lady was blushing slightly from being held by the King of Neverland, who was just smiling as to have made her day by making such a grand entrance. His heart belonged only to Danielle Fenton/Phantom.
The trio landed with style and grace on the stage, Dani transforming back to her mortal form & being handed a microphone from Dr. Teeth as he and the Muppets left the stage. Peter set Robin down, Dani handing to her the wireless mic. The little lady was shy, and it was shown on her face as the spotlight was on her. But with some encouragement by her two new friends, she took a deep breath and soon announced, "Everyone! The music video awards show will begin in five minutes! I repeat, the show is going to start up again in five minutes! To those in the Halls, the Arcade and anywhere else in the building, you need to return to your seats and tables as quickly as possible!".
Once she finished announcing it, she looked relieved and who could blame her? While Robin was a friend to the original PPG, she did have a mild case of stage fright. But it seemed that thanks to Peter and Dani, she was able to do the task that Mickey actually asked her to do!
The many patrons within the dinner theater club started to rush back to their seats, very eager to see the next three music videos.
When the five minutes were up, just about everyone was back at their tables as the video camera lights blinked red, indicating that the event was back on the air!
Mickey Mouse came on stage, but Peter and the others did not leave the stage. It seemed that something was up. The main mouse of the house had a mic of his own as he looked to the various members & newcomers of the crowd. He then announced for all to hear, "Hi there everyone out there in the various worlds/realms/dimensions/universes! Welcome back to the show!".
This got everyone clapping, a majority of them quite eager to see the next line of music videos. Mickey waited for them to calm down, than continued announcing, "To introduce the next three videos, we have three special guests going to be doing the introductions! So I now turn over the mic to Robin Synder, Peter Pan and Dani Fenton!".
The audience was very much surprised by this, but mostly in a pleasant way as they clapped and watched Mickey shaking hands with the trio & wishing them good luck before walking down the steps and back to his seat.
The spotlight was on the trio, Robin handing the mic back to Dani as she wanted her to do the first introductions. The adoptive daughter of Jack & Maddie Fenton was grinning as she looked at everyone, waving to them as well… and blushing a bit in embarrassment when her parents cheered the loudest for her from their seats. But despite that, she wouldn't have it any other way.
Once the audience, plus Jack and Maddie had calmed down, the halfa heroine beauty called out with much positive energy and life, "Hey there everyone! Mickey gave us this great honor to introduce the next three videos, so we'll do our best here!".
She continued onward, "The first video to be shown is Through Heaven's Eyes, and it was made by Maui featuring him, the natives of Motunui plus Moana & the Legendary-era monster King Kong! Plus three Giant Octopuses, the same one from the Toho movies Frankenstein vs. Baragon & War of the Gargantuas.".
Spotlights were put on the demi-god of the Polynesian culture, the heroine herself who aided said deity, her family and tribe… and the monitor above the stage now showcasing the roaring form of the 2021 great ape kaiju! Maui and the cast got up from their seats and waved to the patrons, many on whom they were pleasantly surprised that the bulked-up hero had even made a music video.
Once the applause gradually died down, said hero and the others sat back down in their seats when the spotlights got off of them. Dani smiled and exclaimed, "Okay everyone, now let's see what this music video is all about! Hit it, Mr. Horsecollar!".
Horace smirked from his place high above, pushing the appropriate switches and buttons. Miss Fenton, her beau and the little friend to the PPG all went back to their seats as the lights dimmed down and the screen switched to becoming pitch black.
The screen was black for a moment, then something gradually faded into existence. The scene now showed an island in the background, towering mountain peaks and green hills making a majority of the land. It was nighttime as the stars shone like diamonds in the sky with a full moon bright and white for all to see. The camera changed, zooming in towards the island. After some moments, it shifted to instantly go to the interior of the island. It now showcased a village that was made of straw and sticks, that was situated into the interior of the island.
A great bonfire was lit, the residents of the island surrounding it as there seemed to be a feast going on. Many kinds of fruit and fish abound, the fish being broiled over the fire & being prepared well. They were the natives of Motunui, the name of the island they were on. There was tribal music going on, the beating of drums and many men & women singing in harmony together.
The camera shifted to show that near the bonfire was Moana, daughter of the village chief and heroine to her people for restoring the heart & true form of Te Fiti, the goddess of life. And by her side was Maui, the demi-god trickster of the islands and hero who had been restored in many ways by Moana herself.
It showed the face of Moana, who was smiling and glad to see her people having fun. But… when the camera shifted to Maui, he looked pensive and didn't seem to show the vibrancy and love of life like he used to have.
The camera than panned upward… to show the mighty form of a great ape beast that went by the name of King Kong!
The titan was sitting down, but he loomed over the village with his form. But strangely enough, the people were not afraid of the giant monster. The camera lowered down to look back to Maui, the serious look on his face as the screen rippled like rings in a pond when a stone is thrown in it, representing a flashback:
The scene now showed the village in the daytime… and it was under attack! The villagers were scrambling, screaming as they fled from their homes & the reason for it emerged for all to see. It was the immense coconut crab monster known by many as Tamatoa, the singing beast with a shell that was made out of all kinds of shiny objects such as gold, jewelry and other precious metals and stones.
But he was not alone, as crawling onto the land with him were three immense Giant Octopuses!
Tamatoa had come back to surface of the mortal realm, but he was not desiring any trinkets for his shell. No… he had come for revenge, against the one that had not only humiliated and deceived him but had taken away a victory as well.
He had come for Moana.
The decapod had been very unhappy that he had been duped by a 'mere' girl that had what he wanted the most… the Heart of Te Fiti. Not only that, he was denied revenge against the demi-god that had snapped one of his legs long, long ago. He would have remained on his back… had it not been for a gem on his shell being smashed completely due to his incessive wiggling to get right-side up.
The gem was a very rare one; a sapphire that had the power to open portals to other universes! But the portal would only open for a few minutes before closing up, as tearing a hole through time/space/reality would require a LOT of magical/mystical energy.
Once the gem was smashed completely, a blue swirling portal had opened up! It surprised Tamatoa, and more so when three behemoth octopuses the size of himself emerged from it! Normally, they would be feast on something like Tamatoa, given their normal diet. And said coconut crab was panicking at the moment, struggling hard so that he would be food for these creatures.
He used his bioluminescence to create flashing colors to try and disorient them… but when he cracked one of his eyes open, he saw that the immense cephalopods now staying put without moving. This confused the crab… until a close-up of their eyes showed that he had managed to hypnotize them! Seeing this good turn of fortune, he then displayed a grin that would be in the league of the animated Grinch!
He ordered them to flip him back on his legs, which they did obediently. Tamatoa was not pleased though, as he felt their slimy tentacles all around him that made him shiver in repulsion. Once he was right-side up, he looked to his new minions and stated, "Boys… we're going for a little visit topside!".
And that is when he went back to the surface, riding atop the giant octopuses as he directed them towards the island that was Moana's home.
And when they were spotted by the natives, that is when panic set in quick!
The various warriors were called to the beach, and Moana came too as she had her power over the ocean. Or so she thought, when she asked the ocean to pull back the four immense monsters… but nothing happened. Unknown to them, Tamatoa had a gemstone on his shell that acted as a mystical jammer. In fairness, even he did not know this. But this precise gemstone could block out mystical connections between mortals and forces of nature.
So when Moana called out to the ocean for help, but nothing happened… that is when serious pandemonium set in!
The warriors used spears and hooks to try and combat the Giant Octopuses and Tamatoa, but the weapons could not pierce through the tough hides of the sea creatures nor the tough shell & exoskeleton of the crab.
Tamatoa cackled as he crawled-walked upon the land, seeing the humans fleeing while the foolish ones who stood their ground were frustrated that their weapons had no effect on him. He called out, "Oh Moana! Come on out, little one! I have a bit of a bone to pick with you for tricking me and leaving me on my back down below!".
He scanned the area for his quarry… soon finding her as she was near her hut, her father and mother standing with her! He grinned at finding who he was looking for, scuttling towards them. The chief gathered his wife and child, trying to make a break for it.
Normally, Moana would try to do something like she did before to outwit the immense crab. But with him now having some immense back-up, and also her connection with the ocean gone for some reason, the only thing she could do was retreat & try to think of something.
However, Tamatoa was quickly upon the family! Time seemed to be moving in slow motion as the claw of the golden-encrusted coconut crab was coming very close to the humans… but something came in and struck the claw away, forcing Tamatoa to recall it back as it now stung from the hit. Time resumed like normal, and it seemed that everyone paused in their actions to see on what could have stopped the monstrous appendage.
The camera showed that the thing that had forced Tamatoa's claw back… was a large spinning fishing hook that looked to be made out of solid bone! The spinning hook spun like a buzzsaw, until it was caught expertly by a large hand. The natives looked up, as did Moana and her family. Soon, smiles came to their faces while Tamatoa's face showed surprise and nervousness.
The camera showed the feet of the savior of the family, which was amazingly floating on a moderate-sized whirlwind, panning upwards to show a muscular features of a man… and soon to the face that showed that it was the demi-god Maui himself!
Moana, along with the others, were very much relieved to see the mythical hero of legend! And it seemed that he had learned some new techniques since they last met, which was a couple of years ago.
The hero of legend was smirking, but everyone could see that he was poised and tense for battle. He called out, "Hey Tamatoa! Looks like you got some new friends with you! But it's time for you to see the new and improved Maui! YAHOO!". He yelled out the last part as he streaked towards the large crab, showing that he had mastered some aspects of his element. He was declared to be a demi-god of the wind and sea, so it did make sense to him to practice with his wind element.
Tamatoa let out a yelp before withdrawing his head into his shell, crossing his pincer claws over the exposed part for better protection. And it was fortunate that he did this, as Maui launched himself like a fired cannonball & spun with his magical fishing hook weapon like a buzzsaw!
Sparks flew as bone met shell and claws, Maui pushing back the crab with his move if only a little bit. After a few moments, he stopped and uncurled himself. He quickly put his hook on his back, curled his right hand into a fist and let loose with a strong punch! The blow sent the crab reeling, sending him flying towards the edge of the beach.
When Tamatoa peeked out from his defensive posture, he saw that he was near the water. Eyes bugging out from his stalks a little, he quickly scurried back away from it. Let it be known that despite him being an immense monster crab, he still had the instincts of his smaller, natural relations. He could not breathe underwater, thus he did what he could to stay dry and away from said liquid if he could help it.
Maui leapt at him once more, ready to deliver a hook attack this time around. However… he was grabbed in mid-air by one of the Giant Octopuses! Surprise was on his face as he turned to look at the immense sea-beast that had snagged him so quickly, the demi-god assuming that octopuses were not swift on land as they were in the sea. Apparently, he was wrong.
He yelled out as the tentacle that was wrapped around him squeezed him tight before slamming him on the ground! He continued to yelp as he was repeatedly slammed by the slimy enemy, trying to break free with his strength. Now although Maui was quite strong as he had lifted islands from the sea in days long past, he could not break free due to two things.
One, the squeeze was quite tight, cutting off his lack of air. While it was not fatal, it was uncomfortable and did not allow him to use his full strength. Two, the suckers that were on him were digging deep into his skin, making it more uncomfortable and not being able to focus properly.
After the fifth slam, Maui was tossed towards another of the slick ocean dwellers. He yelled as he was flying through the air, quickly utilizing his hook to change himself into a hawk and flying out of reach of one of the octopuses. He climbed into the air, letting out a screech as he was prepared to dive-bomb one of the tentacled fiends.
However, one of them seemed to be quick in thinking & in action. It turned its head to the side, showcasing to all a funnel that shot forth a stream of black ink! The substance flew through the air, catching Maui by surprise as he screeched loudly. He was flailed about, trying to get the substance off his being. But it was no use, the aerial animal slamming down hard into the ground & changing back into his human form.
He hurried to wipe the gunk off of his face and body, but the stuff was quite stubborn. He was then grabbed by one of the octopuses again, the creature wrapping his whole body in its tentacle and squeezing hard before flinging him hard. He did not fly high into the air, but was flying fast towards Tamatoa.
The immense coconut crab monster smirked before bringing his left claw up, then let out a maniacal laugh as he brought it down like a volleyball player would spike on the ball… with the ball being Maui, who slammed hard into the earth, creating a decent-sized crater with only his right foot sticking out.
The ancient enemy of the demi-god laughed before reaching down with his claw, grabbing Maui by his appendage and pulling him out. The residents of the island were horrified to see their hero being tossed and slammed about like so, especially Moana. She wanted to help, but without her connection to the ocean & of a suitable plan… she did not know what to do.
Tamatoa was very much pleased that he had the demi-god in his grasp, blind from the ink and also quite helpless. He cackled in wicked delight, "Hahahahaha! Now this is what the stories will be told for generations to come! On how the mighty Maui was slain by his the sleek and suave monster known as Tamatoa!".
The muscle man tried to get out from the pincers that held his leg, but he was still blind from the ink & also his magical fish hook was still in the ground. He was running low on energy and options. He soon whispered pleadingly, "If anyone is up there, please… please help me!".
It seemed that someone answered his call… for storm clouds were forming around the island, causing everyone including the sea beasts to pause in their actions. The people and animals were feeling something in the air… something truly supernatural that sent their senses off strongly! Moana's animal companions, the rooster Heihei and pot-belly pig Pua, all ran into the chief's hut and bunkered down quickly underneath anything they could find there.
Lighting flashed from the clouds, wind kicking up as something was happening… something extraordinary!
The bolts of energy struck a distance outside of the village, near the base of one of the mountains. The bolts than actually started to clash together… soon forming a swirling light-blue portal that was of immense size! This stunned everyone, the three Giant Octopuses slowly crawling back as they felt something gigantic was about to happen.
And it came… in the form of something monstrous stepping forth from the portal!
Emerging from it looked to be an immense gorilla, looking to be around the 340 foot mark. He had dark-brown fur on his body, black in some places while a few spots had gray hairs. His head was about fifty feet wide, sporting a beard-like facial hair. He was very muscular, sporting scars on his front area to show that he had participated and endured some tough battles. In his right hand was a staff that had an unusual dorsal spine on it, giving it the resemblance of an axe.
What the natives, monsters and demi-god did not know was that they were looking at the form of 2021 King Kong, and in his hand was the weapon that most humans had dubbed the Saurian Slayer axe!
Kong looked to see that he was no longer on his island, but on a different one… in a completely new universe! He did see the natives down below… than looked up to see a stunned Tamatoa and the three octopuses! He let out a roar towards the sea beasts, beating his chest with his hands to show that he was ready to fight!
Tamatoa was nervous now, so much so that he dropped Maui on reflex at seeing the gorilla. The coconut crab was seeing something completely different & also seeing an axe that gave him the shivers. Even though he was confident that his shell would protect him from anything, he felt that the axe meeting said shell was not a good idea.
He looked to his minions and exclaimed in a tone that had a hint of nervousness in it, "W-Well, don't just stand there looking stupid! G-Go get him!". His orders managed to pierce through to their minds, the octopuses crawling now to do battle with the titan. Tamatoa hung back, wanting to watch how it all played out… and also to consider his options, such as either continuing to fight or to retreat.
When Maui was released, he fell to the ground hard. He used his hook like a cane, which aided him in rising back up. Once he got himself situated, he turned back to see the slimy monsters crawling towards something that was completely new to him. He wondered what it was that he was seeing, and also how it was possible that he came to be here. But he quickly set the questions aside for now, as he gathered himself up to go back into the fray once more.
As the octopuses crawled towards Kong, he roared and raised his axe up to deliver a blow to one of them. However, one of the tentacles terrors launched itself at the ape fast via a blast of air from its head mantle! Normally, this worked underwater as the animal would use a jet of water to escape quickly from prey. But in this case, it shot a powerful jet of air to launch itself at its target.
The octopus latched itself on Kong's upper-right shoulder, wrapping itself around it and squeezing tight while using its beak-mouth within its center to bite hard on the muscle. This surprised Kong as he roared loudly in surprise and pain, with a dash of anger to it. He reached to try and get the octopus off, but was once again surprised when the other one did the same thing as its cohort did & latched onto the upper-left shoulder.
Kong was thrashing about, trying to get the annoying pests off of him. The last octopus seemed to be looking directly at Kong's skull, as it was going to latch onto it. It took aim, launched itself with a blast of air, tentacles spread out wide as everything seemed to be moving in slow motion as the beast was close to its target…
Then it got split right down the middle by a glowing white object, which turned out to be Maui's hook! The camera zoomed in and focused on Maui, as he was letting out a war cry as he split the Giant Octopus in two! Time and speed resumed back to normal, as Maui landed a distance from the village. He had used his wind power to launch himself like a cannonball once more, this time at max power & concentrated all of his mystical energy into that one swing that could cleave the top of a mountain off!
The giant octopus was sliced cleanly in two, dropping to the ground while Moana and the villagers were all stunned by this. Not to mention Tamatoa, who was looking very green in the face after witnessing something like that.
Maui got to one knee, panting as it showed that using all of his strength into that slice had used up most of his energy.
Once Kong saw that the strange muscled human had cut an enemy in two, he decided that now was the time to show his own strength! He bent his head to the octopus on his right arm area, opening his maw wide and taking a bite out of the beast. He managed to get through the tough, rubbery skin, biting off a chunk of the ocean creature as it made a gurgling sound of pain.
It was enough for it to loosen its hold on Kong just enough for him to reach up and grab the head of the octopus, tearing it off with an impressive amount of strength! He then roared loudly once more, throwing the enemy to the ground hard and delivering a stomp that crushed its skull! Blood and ink burst forth from the head as it popped like a balloon!
Seeing the opponent dead, Kong went to the last one latched to him. The octopus held on tightly, but after some good strong yanking, Kong managed to get it off and looked as it writhed its tentacles out in a frenzy. The hairy ape snarled and tossed the creature into the air, gripping his axe tightly like a baseball hitter… and swinging with an upward-stroke that cut the beast in half, similar to how Maui did with his own foe!
Blood and ink goo exploded, some getting onto the villagers. Luckily for them though, the ink did not contain anything dangerous toxic or dangerous. Kong saw that he had won, raising his axe high with his right hand and beating on his chest with the other hand to showcase to all that he had won!
When Tamatoa saw this, his eyes were wide as he said to himself, "Okay, I think now is the time that Tamatoa left the stage before the final curtain falls on him.". His shell was tough, he was agile and dexterous with his claws & he had some hypnotizing ability with his body glow… but he was NOT going to press his luck against something that was completely new and unknown.
He scuttled away while everyone was staring in amazement at Kong, aiming to get to the other side of the island and burrowing into the ground. He would leave the island via tunneling, which would take him longer to get back to his home… but safer, at least to him. And with him getting distance from Moana, she felt her connection to the sea coming back once more.
The camera focused on Maui, who was looking at the newcomer with amazement and awe… and also disappointment, but it was mostly to himself as he had failed to aid Moana and her tribe when he came to help.
The camera rippled, showing that they were now back in the present with Maui showing the same look of pensiveness on his face still.
The camera shifted to show Moana's father Chief Tui, the tall chief of the island and people calling out, "Everyone! We are here tonight to celebrate and remember this day! To give thanks to the gods and goddesses of the world that brought us two heroes who saved us, who we honor here tonight!".
The natives clapped loudly as the camera showed the faces of the people, shifting to show the reaction of Kong who softly howled like a gorilla did when curious. Moana was smiling as she was clapping for the new hero… but she stopped when she saw the face of Maui, who looked pensive still.
With a sigh, Maui looked to the chief and replied softly, "I'm sorry Chief but… I don't think I deserve to be shown such honor…".
Maui had been in deep thinking; he had accomplished much, but that had been in his prime. When he was actively doing things for mortals to gain their admiration and love… like a child would do for his parents. But when it got to the point of being too ambitious and arrogant, he did something that he should not have done in the first place.
It had than cost him not just his freedom to roam the world, his dignity and magical hook… but it had thrown the world off balance, and caused more trouble for many mortals.
And even though Moana had helped him out, he had let his pride and fear get in the way that almost destroyed their friendship. And even when he came back to help, the consequences of his actions had been weighing heavily upon his mind for some time despite being forgiven by Te Fiti & receiving a brand-new hook that had new abilities he was just discovering.
And now, he was not able to help his friend out and had to call on someone to help him out.
Moana and the people were stunned silly to hear this from someone like Maui, King Kong looking down as he saw the chattering of the humans dying down. He was curious as to know what was going on.
The camera showed Chief Tui was stunned by the words, but soon shifted to his lovely wife Sina who smiled softly as she rose up from her seat next to Moana. She walked to Maui, who was still looking down, kneeling down and using her hands to gently lift up the head of the depressed demi-god.
She spoke these words softly and with a caring tone, "Maui… you have done much for us and many others. You helped our daughter restore Te Fiti back to her real form. Then you come to our aid when we needed you, and also defended our new guest here.".
The camera showed the gentleness yet subtle strength that the woman had in her eyes and facial features. She continued on, "And you think that it is not worthy of honor? I believe that you need to see something that is even beyond human understanding.". That is when the music picked up for all to hear.
A single thread in a tapestry,
Though its color brightly shines…
Can never see its purpose
In the pattern of the grand design.
The camera showed Sina showing to Maui and the others one of the artworks woven into a tapa cloth, where she shows a picture of a small fish that is richly colored. But soon the camera zooms out when she shows the entire picture, which is of a certain large manta ray was done by Moana and many other denizens of the deep sea.
And the stone that sits on the very top
Of the mountain's mighty face,
Does it think it's more important
Than the stones that form the base?
The camera changed to showcase the massive mountain top that was sitting in the distance, that was in the very direct center of the island, zooming out a little to show Sina gesturing to the mountaintop as she sang. Then she turned to Maui, the camera showing that he was looking at her but was still plagued by some lingering doubt.
So how can you see what your life is worth,
Or where your value lies?
You can never see through the eyes of man!
You must look at your life…
Look through your eyes through Heaven's eyes!
The camera showed Sina kneeled down to Maui, putting an arm around his shoulders and gesturing to the villagers that were around. The camera panned slowly to the right to showcase the various men, women and children. Moana was shown, and a look of hope was on her face. Hope that Maui would understand what her mother was trying to tell him.
At reaching the final words, the camera shifted to showcase the starry night above. It stayed there to showcase the Heavens for a bit, than panned down to show the islanders now rising up and dancing! The adults were moving and swaying to the rhythm of the music as best they could, the children soon rising up and playing around as life started to come forth richly from all of them.

The camera showed all of them dancing, then changed to Maui who watched on… but had a small but true smile on his face. Moana, who was also up, went to him and asked for him to dance with her. He chuckled softly, but he declined saying that he was not ready… yet. Moana was a bit sad, but she saw that there was still hope for him, so replaced it with a soft smile and went to dance with the others.
Kong looked on at the celebration down below, and if one could see his facial features through the moonlight… one could see a small smile on his maw!
A lake of gold in the desert sand
Is less than a cool fresh spring!
And to one lost sheep, a shepherd boy
Is greater than the richest king!
The scene changed to show Sina gesturing to the ocean to them, which was vast and wide. The camera showed the majestic beauty of the ocean that was lit by moonlight for a few moments, than she gestured to some water jugs nearby. One of the men picked it up with his arms, and tipped it over to show fresh water coming down from it and pouring into a sea-shell that was being used like a cup for a young woman to drink with.
Sina than showed Pua, who was having a good time playing with the children before running back to Moana. The island princess reached down and scooped up her friend, who bore a smile as he was hugged by her long-time friend.
If a man loses everything he owns,
Has he truly lost his worth?
Or is it the beginning…
Of a new and brighter birth?
The camera showed Maui looking at his fish hook, the scene rippling once more to show flashbacks of his past actions. It showed the day he lost against the evil side of Te Fiti, the lava demoness known as Te Kā. It also showed briefly his banishment to an island where he was alone for so long, than fast-forwarding to the time when his original hook was cracked during the next fight with the demoness… and how he abandoned Moana like so.
It soon showed him returning back to aid her, even though his hook was damaged. And then, showing the part where it was completely blown apart due to countering an attack from Te Kā. And in the end, receiving another magical fish hook from Te Fiti herself. The flashback ended, with Maui still looking at his magical object of power before looking back to Sina as he was starting to comprehend her words.
So how do you measure the worth of a man,
In wealth, in strength or size?
In how much he gained, or how much he gave?
The answer will come…
The answer will come to him who tries
To look at his life through Heaven's eyes!
The camera showed Sina gesturing to the tattoos that were on Maui, Mini-Maui coming to life and showcasing to all the accomplishments of his real-life self. The camera showed the rolling/sentient/living ink moving as it showed the deeds Maui performed in the past; such as lifting huge islands from the sea, the wind blowing to give power/lift to sail boats made in the days long past, his battle against monsters like a giant eel and Tamatoa, stealing fire from the Underworld, lassoing the sun… and then his current accomplishment, which was Mini-Maui now with a Mini-Moana by his side, to showcase how the duo had saved Te Fiti and the known world from disaster.
The camera went back to Maui, who was looking at Sina with the look of understanding on his face. That he had done much for mankind yes… but that he needed to see something more past that. That his purpose was much higher than simply helping humans, but something much more in the life-run… something that was for a higher purpose.
And that's why we share all we have with you,
Though there's little to be found!
When all you got is nothing…
There's a lot to go around!
The scene changed to show Maui now interacting with the natives, trying some of the food they offered to him. He accepted, though he knew that it was not much. Due to the attack by Tamatoa and his slimy cohorts, the villagers' food and drink supplies were limited. It would be some weeks before their fruits and vegetables were back to normal numbers, but they still insisted on giving all that they could to their legendary hero.
He was soon playing with the children after eating, transforming into all kinds of animals for them as they laughed in delight. He did scare them though with his shark-head anthro transformation, but the adults and Moana found it very amusing.
Meanwhile, Kong was watching all of this was eating the remnants of the octopuses he had killed earlier. Apparently, they seemed to have a special flavor that pleased him more than the Mire Squids that inhabited his own island home.
No life can escape being blown about,
By the winds of change and chance!
And though you never know all the steps…
You must learn to join the dance!
You must learn to join the dance!
The scene changed yet again to show the people dancing around the fire that had grown in size rather than dim down. Maui was smiling now, his confidence… and purpose being brought back to him, but on a level that he never thought was possible. He gazed to see Sina now dancing with her husband, the duo showing that they loved and trusted one another completely in a way that was just so beautiful and true.
Moana than went over, taking him by the arm and finally managing to get him to dance and move with her. Mini-Maui & Mini-Moana encouraged him to go, to take the chance and get into the groove with the heroine who had helped him regain himself. One that had helped him become the Maui that was better than before.

As the two dance to the song and music, they showed that despite their physical differences and such, they showed some good chemistry and such in their dancing. Maui than had a mischievous look on his face, when he grabbed Moana by the waist quickly and tossed her high into the air! She yelped in surprise as she heading upwards, Maui changing into a large hawk and zooming up towards her.
The camera showed Moana soon falling back down, but she landed on Maui-Hawk's back as they flew through the night sky. Moana's face morphed from surprise to a delight one, the wind rushing through her hair as she and the demi-god flew through the air. Maui-Hawk soon did some aerial tricks, the islanders looking on in awe and wonder, hearing Moana's shouts of joy and surprise as she held on tightly to the feathers of her friend.
The camera now showed the duo flying towards Kong, who was perplexed on how the male human had changed into an animal but simply took it as his. He looked amused as the shapeshifting human and female human on his back were going over his form, feeling that they had no malicious intent and continued to watch on.
The scene changed to showcase Maui-Hawk coming down fast in a dive-bomb back towards the islanders, then shifted from bird back to human form where he landed first firmly on both feet. His landing made a small crater in the ground, the demi-god standing up right as he caught Moana bridal-style, then gently setting the young woman down. She had a large smile on her face, showcasing to all that she loved every minute of the flight.
Then she was embraced by her father first, followed by her mother who looked to Maui as she finished up.
So how do you judge what a man is worth,
By what he builds or buys?
You can never see with your eyes on earth…
Look through Heaven's eyes!
Look at your life…
Look at your life…
Look at your life through Heaven's eyes!
The camera showed the islanders now gathered all around Maui, who was now understanding that he had a much bigger purpose than just helping mankind like he did in the past. That perhaps there was something more to him being rescued by the gods & goddesses when he was an infant. And now that he was given a new lease to life, not with just a brand new magical fish hook… but something greater such as the friendship with the mortal Moana.
He looked to all of them, the people having grateful and true smiles on their faces as they gathered together. And then movement occurred as all turned to see the immense ape standing up from his position. He looked down to the surprised humans and demi-god… and did sign-language that showed in subtitles in white for all to see! Kong was gesturing/saying to Maui: YOU GOOD AND STRONG PERSON.
The natives did not know sign language, but they felt that what their new visitor was trying to say was good. Nevertheless, Maui felt much better and it showed on his face. He looked up towards Kong for a few moments, then turned back to look at the heavens. The camera showed the moon and stars that filled the sky, the brilliance showing to all.
The camera than instantly zoomed away from the island, going a distance before stopping and showing to all the fires of celebration being played out… and the immense ape standing over them as the song faded. And the screen started to fade to black.
Once the screen faded to black completely, being replaced once more by the 3rd Annual Disney/Toho Kaiju Music Video Awards banner & the lights coming back on, the audience got to their feet and clapped/cheered loudly! Many of the patrons displayed their positive agreement with music video, especially some of the characters and Authors who liked a certain giant ape beast.
Coming back on stage was Dani, Robin and Peter Pan, who looked to the crowd with smiles on their faces as they had enjoyed the music video as well. Dani had the wireless microphone back in her hand as she called out, "Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for Maui and those that made that music video possible! Come on, give it up for all of them!".
The audience cheered and clapped louder than before, the spotlights going on the demi-god, Moana and the natives of Motunui. The characters rose up and waved to the crowd, showing that they enjoyed making the unique music video for all to see. The screen above Dani and the others changed to show Kong, who roared loudly and beat his chest in a style that was all his own.
This lasted for a few moments, than Peter asked for everyone to calm down. It gradually happened, but soon the audience was calm down enough so that they could all continue with the event. The King of Neverland took the microphone and announced in his usual boastful tone, "Okay everyone! Now I have the honor of presenting the next music video! This one was made by Capt. Jack Sparrow, and it features the song When I'm Back On My Feet Again by Michael Bolton! It also features a unique giant turtle kaiju that can spit fire and fly through the air! I'm talking about Gamera!".
The screen changed, replacing Kong's face with Gamera… but this one was different, as it looked younger, different facial features and lighter skin color. What everyone was seeing was a young Gamera from the Toho 2006 feature film Gamera the Brave!
Everyone was now very much intrigued on this unusual mixing of both characters and music here, but they did show their appreciation by clapping and cheering for the pirate who stood up with the spotlight now on him. Capt. Jack Sparrow bowed and waved to his fans and characters who were now giving him support. It lasted for a few moments, than Peter once again called for everyone to settle down.
Once they did, he announced, "Okay everyone, let's see what this silly codfish from the Caribbean has made for us! Hit it!". The audience laughed a little at the subtle jab to Jack Sparrow, who took it with grace but was now plotting a way to get back at the leader of the Lost Boys.
He, Dani and Robin went back to their seats quickly as the lights dimmed down once more & the screen went to completely black.
The screen changed, slowly transitioning from black to showcase to all what appeared to be an island in the distance. The camera showed that the mass of land was extremely rocky, with only a few vegetation showing on the right side of the island… and what appeared to be a large cave that looked more or less like an opening maw. It was like that for a few moments, until a certain ship sailed in as it cut through the water.
The camera shifted to showcase the front of the ship, which was legendary vessel the Black Pearl! On the deck of the ship were numerous crewmen, hard at work in maintaining the craft. At the bow was Capt. Jack Sparrow, pirate who was famous… or infamous, depending on who you were talking to. He was a legend in his own mind, but he was famous for getting into the most extreme and bizarre situations that landed him into either good or bad fortune, again depending.
The camera show the face of the pirate, who was staring intensely at the island that his ship was heading towards. On his right shoulder was Jack the monkey, who chittered as he stood atop the human. Said human than gazed down at his left hand, which had a compass that was quite special and unique. This particular compass did not point north like most compasses would… rather, it would point to whatever it is that the holder's heart desired more than anything else in the world.
Right now, the compass was pointing to the island. Jack looked back up to the mass of rock that was floating in the ocean for a few moments, then he turned around and shouted to his crew, "Oi! Prepare to weight anchor! Get the longboats ready and see what's on this rock! Get the flasks and caskets ready in case we find some fresh water! And if we are lucky, that island might have us some game we can get for our dinners!".
The entire crew let out a hearty AYE before doing as their leader told them to do, the second mate Joshamee Gibbs barking out orders as well.
Soon, the scene changes to showcase four longboats left the Pearl. A couple of barrels were situated in each vessel, the crew hoping to find a spring or anything that offered fresh water. It shifted once more, the camera showing the crewmen dragging the ship to a sandy shore that was on the right side of the island. Capt. Jack Sparrow got in front of the camera, which panned upward to show his face. He surveyed the land, soon bringing the compass back out to see it. After a few moments, he clicked it down and turned to address his men. He ordered, "You lads explore the island on this side. I'm going to explore the cave over there, see what I can find.".
Jack the monkey soon hopped off the captain's shoulder, going to Gibbs as the primate wanting to explore the part that had vegetation on it rather than explore a cave. With a shrug of his shoulders, Jack separated himself from the rest and went to the left side of the island.
As he started to climb over and on the craggy rocks, making sure to have good footing so that he would not slip and fall on said rocks… because a single trip down was no doubt hazardous.
The camera focused on him as he continued onward, but his face showed concern and hope. He said to himself, "I better hope there is something here on this rock. Because honestly… I think my luck and age are catching up to me now.".
You see, the infamous pirate had been in deep thought. It had been three months since his last adventure, which was with two young adults. One was the son of Will and Elizabeth Turner, who was named Henry Turner. And the daughter of his old shipmate and former enemy Capt. Hector Barbossa, an intelligent lass that was now opening her mind to something that went beyond the laws of logic and nature. An astronomer and scholar that went by the name of Carina Barbossa.
Ever since parting from them after a very deadly and dangerous excursion that involved old enemies and a magical trident, Jack Sparrow sought out any kind of new adventure to be had. But alas… it seems that his dream of an endless adventure fell short.
He and his crew had raided other vessels, seized cargo and had quite a steady haul while also avoiding the British Navy. It seemed that fortune was with him, and the crew enjoyed it all. But… for Jack Sparrow, it was not enough. There had been no big adventure; no treasure of immense value to find, no extremely pretty women that captured his attention like certain ones did in the past… and also, that rum seemed to be falling in short supply more than ever.
He was in a rut, and he knew that falling into a rut would mean the end of his legend. That people would talk less and less about him, until he would be forgotten and most likely end up in retirement like certain pirates he knew that took that route.
The captain was in desperate search of something big… REALLY big that would get him back on the map in more ways than one!
The camera showed Jack stopping for a moment, zooming out a little to show that he had reached the entrance to the cave. The human looked very small when compared to the size of the cavern, the camera showing this for a few moments before returning back to Jack. He looked at the compass, and it showed that it was pointing directly into the cave.
He said to himself, "Well… if my big chance for another grand adventure is there… might as well take it.". The captain then proceeded inward, and that is when the music started up.
Gonna break these chains around me…
Gonna learn to fly again!
May be hard, may be hard
But I'll do it!
When I'm back on my feet again!
The captain of the legendary ship with black sails continued to make his way into the cave, paying close attention to not drop on some small but sharp stalagmites. And also just in case, to not make too much noise otherwise it could loosen the stalactites from the ceiling and it could drop on him.
Jack Sparrow was careful, but determined as he made his way into the cavern. He wanted to make sure that this what he was looking for. To make sure he was not shackled by the chains of mediocrity and staleness, to make sure that he would not be forgotten as a pirate who gave in to a quiet retirement. But to live on in a blaze of glory that would perhaps inspire generations!
And if possible, to make sure that said generations were his descendants.
To be get back on his feet as a man and pirate who continued onward instead of just fading away into obscurity.
Soon these tears will all be dryin'…
Soon these eyes will see the sun!
Might take time, might take time
But I'll see it!
When I'm back on my feet again!
The camera showed that Jack had gone deep into the cavern, which unknowingly to him, was a great deal inland. He continued on until he reached a dead end, wondering on why the compass would lead him here when there was nothing here.
He wondered, "Maybe I read the bloody thing wrong? Maybe… that I'm losing my touch? That this is a sign that I'm… through?". His mind was starting to give way to negativity and doubt, now wondering if this was his end… the dead-end of life that he dreaded about.
The camera showed his face, which was trying its hardest to not break out in water-works. Jack seemed to be on the verge of giving up… until he heard something that sounded like wind. And he felt a breeze from behind, as it was not possible since he did hit a dead-end.
He turned around, peering harder at the wall he had run into… only to see the wall actually move slightly, and coming upward was not a stalagmite but a tooth! He had not run into a wall… but into the face of a something that was alive and also immense!
{When I'm back on my feet again,
I'll walk proud down that street again!
And they'll all look at me again,
And they'll all see that I'm strong!}
To Jack, this was something truly monumental! He had found a beast, one that looked to be bigger than the Kraken itself!
What he had found was Gamera, a benevolent turtle monster that was considered the guardian of the universe back in his own realm. The scene soon rippled, once again showing a flashback sequence.
Some time ago in said realm, he had managed to defeat a truly terrible monster by the name of Zedus. When the battle was over, he had flown away from the human cities to recover from his injuries & also to complete the process of growing up into a mature adult. When he managed to find a suitable place, which was an island far off in the Pacific Ocean, he went into hibernation in a cave.
The camera showed the young Gamera going into the cave, going into a standing position and entering into a state of hibernation, of deep sleep. The scene was peaceful, but then it showed a golden glow covering the immense turtle like a blanket… than in a flash of light, he was gone!
It seemed that he was silently transported through time and space, arriving on the island in the Disney realm exactly at the moment when the trident was destroyed. And he had been sleeping still since that day on the island, no one noticing him… until now.
Gonna hear the children laughing,
Gonna hear the voices sing!
Won't be long, won't be long
Till I hear them!
When I'm back on my feet again!
The flashback ended, showing that it was back in present time. Jack was ecstatic, very much joyful that he had found something truly big. He thought to himself, 'This is great! This is incredible! I have found something that looks to be bigger than that overgrown beastie's of Davy Jones! Maybe… Maybe I can see if I can control it!'.
The camera waved now like waves on the ocean, indicating that the human was in a sort of daydream-fantasy.
The scene showed images of Jack sailing out to sea, his ship coming towards one of the ports that was in the Caribbean Islands. And by his side… was the immense sea turtle that he had found, which caused people to panic and also for the Navy to set sail in order to engage. But the turtle would rise up and smash right on through the vessels, the weapons not harming it at all.
The camera showed the chaos and destruction caused by Jack Sparrow, then it shifted to show him being paraded around by his crew at Tortuga, the notorious pirate haven. Many cheered for him, ladies swooned at him… especially a buxom redhead that had winked at him. He soaked in the praise and attention, and also hearing songs that would be told of him that carry him into truly legendary status that would be shown in the history books.
Gonna feel the sweet light of Heaven
Shining down its light on me!
One sweet day, one sweet day
I will feel it!
When I'm back on my feet again!
The camera showed Jack smiling brightly as he felt the light from above, like Heaven was FINALLY letting him catch the big break that he felt he so richly deserved. The image waved once more, indicating that the daydream was over but it still showed the face of Jack like it was in said daydream.
He managed to come back to reality, realizing that he needed to find a way to make sure the beast was completely under his command. He seemed to be in thought, and realized something as he said to himself, "Hold the dice! Old Hector had some stuff on my ship when he took it… chances are he stashed away something of magical nature. Maybe if I find it… maybe I can find something to put this large beastie here under my command.".
Without a moment to lose, Jack made his way back to the entrance/exit of the cave while Gamera continued to sleep soundly.
{When I'm back on my feet again,
I'll walk proud down that street again!
And they'll all look at me again,
And they'll all see that I'm strong!}
Once he was back outside, he went to the area where the longboats were still at. Apparently, his timing was perfect as he saw Gibbs and the rest of the crew coming back to the beach. Two pirates were each carrying a barrel, all eight of them filled to the brim with fresh water. And some carried two large boars that had been on the island, which meant that they was going to be a feast tonight. And a few pirates carried large cloth sacks that contained wild fruit that was on the land.
Gibbs was feeling quite proud, and it showed on his face. He was in high spirits; they had a good amount of treasure on the ship, free as birds still, the men satisfied & now fresh provisions that would last them for some time until they made port.
He saw Jack coming to them, ready to report to his captain that everything had turned out well… until he saw the look of excitement on Jack's face, and that usually meant trouble was coming. Even the monkey on his shoulders shook his head, even he was feeling that something was going to come crashing down on their good fortune.
And I'm not gonna crawl again!
I will learn to stand tall again!
No, I'm not gonna fall again!
'Cause I'll learn to be strong!
The camera showed Jack going to his First-Mate and stated, "Okay, good work Gibbs for finding these! Now, I need to know something. Did you find anything on the ship that is somewhat… maybe… magical in origin or words? I need to know this right now, savvy?".
The bearded man showed he was a bit hesitant, but seeing Jack this chipper after some time was a relief to him as he had been pensive and somber… which was against his nature. But he knew also that him being this energetic always meant that big trouble was brewing. It was a double-edged sword, more or less.
He answered to the best of his knowledge, "Well… I did come across something down below the deck, a recent addition that Hector made when he had the ship. There are some things in there… I don't honestly know that might be magical in nature. Why?".
The captain replied, "Let's just say I found something that is going to put me on top. More so than even Davy Jones himself! Now, just need to see if we have what I need. Now come on, time to go!". He quickly turned around and went towards one of the longboats, getting in it as the pirates started to push it back into the ocean.
Soon these tears will all be dryin'…
Soon these eyes will see the sun!
Might take time, might take time
But I'll see it!
When I'm back on my feet again!
When I'm back on my feet again!
I'll be back on my feet again…
As the longboats rowed back to the Black Pearl, Jack Sparrow was standing tall as he was hoping to be back on top of the list in the world of piracy. To become a legend that would exceed Davy Jones himself, by having at his command something that made the Kraken look like a regular squid. He would no longer be a mere pirate that faded away gradually. No… he would be someone that would be told throughout the ages for all time, a form of immortality, if you would.
The camera focused on him, then switched to show the cavern that held the immense turtle kaiju. Gamera was asleep, but also fully healed and very much near the maturity that would make him a full-fledged adult.
The camera then split; a white line forming a barrier, with Jack shown on the left side & Gamera's sleeping face on the right. Both would be back on their feet once more when the time came. The music faded, and then the entire screen soon faded to black.
When the lights came back on, the patrons clapped for the music video… but even they thought it was weird and unusual. Dani, Robin and Peter came back to the stage but they were soon met with Jack Sparrow as he came to them. He politely asked for the mic, which Dani gave to him even though she was a bit reluctant.
Once he had what he wanted, he looked to the patrons and called out, "Okay everyone, I know that you are all mystified and such by my creation. But I have an explanation for it all.".
The pirate saw that he had the attention of the entire establishment, he started out, "Alright, time for some explanations. I chose the song for a reason which is this. Me and Gamera there, we are kinda one and the same. It's been a long while since either of us have been seen on the big screens. Well… more for him than me.".
Those who were familiar with the Toho series knew that to be true, as Gamera's last movie was in 2006 and sadly was considered a failure.
Jack continued onward, "And so, just think about this for a moment. A song that tells someone that they'll get back on their feet again, and on a giant fire-breathing turtle who has not gotten a break in a long time. And of course a legendary pirate here who hasn't been seen in a long time either.".
While some quickly found the connection & what Jack was trying to say, it took some others to figure it out. The song and music video was more about Gamera than Jack, even though he was trying to portray himself in the same fashion. And also, many eyes rolled at the man stating himself to be a legend.
Once the connection was found, the audience clapped once more with some cheering into the mix. This pleased Jack as he smiled and took a bow. But what he didn't know was that the patrons clapping was for Gamera, as those who saw the potential in the giant turtle wanted him to have a real shot at becoming a legend like a certain mutated saurian.
After some moments, Jack returned the microphone to Dani before returning back to his seat with the others.
The halfa heroine was pleased to have that out of the way, looking to the many patrons and letting them clap/cheer for some moments before raising her hand up to call for calmness. When she got it, she announced on the mic, "Thank you for the explanation there, Jackie-Boy! And now, to end this with style, I'm turning over the mic to the one who has the honor. Everyone, give it up for Robin here!".
The little girl was blushing badly as the spotlight was on her, Dani giving her the microphone as she looked over the immense audience that was now clapping for her. She saw her parents over by David & Alice Utonium, and next to the adults at another table were her friends the U.S. Powerpuff Girls.
Her folks cheered and clapped loudly, her mother taking pictures of her with her cell phone. The Utonium family also clapped and cheered, Buttercup whistling as well to show her support.
And Robin looked around to see another friend that she had made recently… the formidable and potent monster that was the Dean of Monsters University campus, Abigail Hardscrabble. When she saw her, Robin smiled and waved at the half-centipede, half-dragon being. Said dean of the university merely offered a small but true smile and waved back at her.
For Robin, that was more than enough.
This all lasted for some time, until Dani and Peter called for everyone to be quiet. It gradually happened, but it did and all focus was on little Robin. The small Synder child gathered up her courage and spoke into the microphone, "H-Hey everyone! Well, here is the ninth music video and the last one before we go to a commercial break! This one was made by Author Darkness Rissing, and it features Sofia the First & the cast from the Toho 2004 film Godzilla: Final Wars! And the monster featured in it is Godzilla himself from the movie! And the song is Know Who You Are from the movie Moana, with some interesting additions to said song!".
The spotlight went to the Author and Sofia, both waving their arms to the now cheering & clapping crowd. And the screen was split to show two sides. On the left side showcased the cast who were shown in the film, the camera slowly panning to the right to show everyone. And on the right side of the screen was the face of Final Wars-Godzilla, who roared loudly for all to hear!
Robin spoke once more, "Also, the time in the Disney universe takes close to a year after the events that happened in DJ's fourth and final novel, Monsters and Magic Special: Sofia's Imagination!".
Darkness used his Author ability to amplify his voice and proclaimed, "Also, Sofia in the music video will have a new outfit. It is this that I found at DeviantArt, made by the user madiquin185. And now… voilà!".
He did a gesture to Sofia like a magician, and the little princess's clothes flashed in a brilliant light-purple light. When it died down, all could see that she was in a more modern attire than her normal princess outfit. She wore a dark purple, long-sleeved shirt with a little skirt-like formation at the bottom of said attire with a dark-violet belt around it. And also long blue jeans with black slipper shoes on.
Needless to say, the audience were surprised and many found her new, modern attire to be spot on.
Robin smiled and stated that Sofia looked very cool in that outfit, many others agreeing with her and thus making the princess of Enchancia blush. When the cheering and clapping gradually ceased, Robin announced, "And now, here it is everyone… Know Who You Are! Mr. Horsecollar, please turn on the video!".
The trio rushed back to their seats as the lights dimmed down once more, the screen going completely black.
The screen instantly came to life with action, showing Godzilla spinning around with his dorsal spines flashing from blue to red as he unleashed his new Super Move called the Hyper Spiral Ray! The crimson beam of energy struck at an alien monster known as Keizer Ghidorah, the three-headed monster shrieking as he was lifted up high into the atmosphere via the projectile attack. The crimson beam slowly ate through the body of the space monster… until it soon exploded in spectacular fashion!
Seeing his foe no more, Godzilla let out a roar of victory!
The camera than focused on an aircraft that was nearby, hovering in the air a distance away from the victorious saurian. It was the formidable vessel known as the Gotengo, and inside were the survivors of the human race that had managed to defeat the alien menace known as the Xiliens. Said space race had decimated most of the planet Earth, capturing humans in order to use them as a food source to raise and grow. They had utilized three space monsters, known as Monster X and Millennium-era Gigan & Advanced Gigan, and also enslaved most of the Earth monsters by restructuring their very DNA to include a fifth base called M-Base that allowed the aliens to subjugate them.
However… their plans were foiled by the crew of the hovering battleship, and two of Earth's most powerful monsters known as Mothra & Godzilla.
The camera went inside the ship, showcasing to all the crew. One by one, their faces were shown to all. It soon landed on Captain Douglas Gordon, who looked tense still even though they had witnessed Godzilla eliminating Keizer Ghidorah. However, soft footsteps came forth which caused the people in the main area of the ship to turn around.
The camera than showed an outline of someone emerging from the shadows, right behind the person and showing from the body build of said being that it was a girl. The camera quickly shifted to show the face of Earth Defense Force Commander- Akiko Naimkawa as she spoke, "Your Highness, you need to stay in your room.".
The being emerged fully into the light, the camera changing to be behind her as she spoke softly but firmly, "I believe it's only right that I see Godzilla for myself like this.".
The camera rotated to the left to showcase to all that the young girl was… Sofia the First! She was not in her royal attire, but rather in civilian clothing.
Blue eyes looked at the screen, staring at the mutated Godzillasaurus who was now looking around the devastation that had brought to the city thanks to his battle against the space monsters. The camera changed to slowly do a zooming close-up of Sofia's eyes, the screen rippling once more to show a flashback happening.
Sofia the First was in her room of Enchancia, looking outside of her room. Her home and kingdom were thriving, prosperous in many ways other than just financially. Enchancia had good political/social/cultural connections with the various kingdoms who were their allies, the quality of life for everyone seemed to be very much up & friendships were being made or forged stronger than ever before.
And it was all due to certain giant monsters that many had the pleasure of seeing some time ago.
It had been a year since what was dubbed the War for the World; an intense battle between the forces of evil lead by sorceress Cosmina & the forces of good led by Sofia herself! It was also getting close to the day when Godzilla and the others who had stayed in her kingdom had to return back to their proper places.
Sofia heard some soft growling and looked down, seeing Amber playing with the female Baby Godzillasaurus that she called Nolene. The emerald-colored saurian squeaked as she followed her step-sister, who was playing a luring game as she was holding out a peeled orange for her to try and get.
The brown-haired princess sighed, remembering how she and the others had been surprised to see Amber with a Baby Godzillsaurus, and a female one at that! Her father and mother were a bit reluctant to keep Nolene, especially after reading the information concerning a Godzillasaurus. But with some pleading from her, Amber and surprisingly James, the parents allowed for their eldest daughter to keep her.
And after some months, Nolene was now considered a member of the royal family & given Royal Pet status.
The princess sighed once more, indicating that she was bored. Her animal friends were doing their own thing, her human friends were visiting distant family members, her brother James was on a Father & Son vacation trip with their father & her mother was at the village catching up with her old friends. That left her and Amber alone, but with many loyal and faithful servants around, they were not without supervision.
Sofia looked at her room, which had some unusual additions. She had picture portraits that showed her family with the kaiju's; her mother Queen Miranda with Biollante, her father King Roland with Anguirus, her brother between Jet Jaguar & King Caesar, Amber with the Twin Fairies in her hands & Mothra in her adult form… and finally herself with Godzilla the King of the Monsters.
Each of the family members were in different poses, like James being a heroic pose while Jet Jaguar held out his right hand in the thumbs-up gesture. When she looked at herself with Godzilla, it was with the saurian gently petting her head like her father did to her.
She remembered the times when they had been brought to her realm, which was to take on Cosmina and her army of evil. And during the journey to her mountain abode, and also after the battle was over, all of them had bonded with the royal family. And also befriended the populace of Enchancia.
Monster-mania was still quite strong all around, where the children would play and pretend to be their favorite monsters while the adults discussed on what it would be like to have the behemoths settle in their world.
Sofia quietly said to herself, "Sigh… Godzilla… I wish I could see you again in the flesh and blood.".
When she spoke those words… she immediately looked down at her neck, and saw that her precious trinket known to all as the Amulet of Avalor was pulsing fast & strong in deep purple energy! Sofia knew what was about to happen, cursing herself in forgetting that she had the magical object on her still!
In a brilliant flash of light… she was gone!
In the Toho universe, it seemed that a cover had just been blown. Mutant soldier Shin'ichi Ozaki, newscaster Anna Otonashi & U.N. molecular biologist Miyuki Otonashi had discovered what was wrong with Naotaro Daigo, who was the U.N. Secretary General. The trio were about to come up with a plan in exposing the Xiliens on who they really were… until a flash of light appeared in the computer room they were in!
Ozaki got defensive instantly, getting in front of the Otonashi sisters and on guard. Imagine their surprise when the light died down… and in front of them was a young foreign girl, wearing clothing that really looked to be from another time.
Sofia looked to them, offering a weak smile and waving to them while saying in a nervous tone, "H-Hello there. Am I in Tokyo, Japan?".
What followed next was a conversation that really lasted for some time, but left an impression on all four of them. The natives of the Toho world had just learned they were talking to a visitor from another universe, one that apparently revered the giant monsters as heroes. They had read the reports, but it was still hard to believe of beings from another completely universe & reality. Let alone anyone that would revere Godzilla or any of the giant monsters as heroes.
And Sofia had learned that she had traveled far into the future of the Toho world, some years after the events that led to her Godzilla's death.
Anna suggested that the princess be given new clothes so she would fit in more into the world, and also that she would need to be in a secure location for the time being. The Toho trio had told Sofia about the current situation concerning the Xiliens, and that it would not be a good idea for the time being for anyone of that race to know of her existence.
Miyuki had volunteered to get Sofia new clothes, while Ozaki would escort her to a place he knew would be very much secure for her… inside the ship Gotengo! Anna stated she needed to get things together, leaving the two as she came up with a plan.
So it was that Sofia was escorted in complete security and secrecy to the ship, where she marveled at seeing something that looked like a submarine with a drill attached to it. Ozaki was amused at her reaction, could not really blame her for that.
She was transferred into a room on the ship, which was comfortable and near a small library that was used by the crew when they needed something to do. Ozaki instructed her to stay in the ship, and he would get for her once everything was resolved.
When he left, Sofia used the opportunity to check out her new abode. Once she was done with it, she left it to go to the library that was next to her room. It was there that she started to read up on the current monsters that were in the world right now… and also learning more about the fates of certain others.
After several hours, she was currently resting in her room. The doors opened, which woke her up from her little nap, and in came Miyuki. Sofia greeted her, but she saw that the biologist looked quite tense and tired. She asked, "Miss Miyuki, what's wrong?".
She went to her and replied, "Things just got a whole LOT complicated. Here… I managed to get you some clothes. I hope they fit you.". She laid the bag that contained Sofia's new clothes and shoes on her bed before leaving, apparently she had somewhere that she needed to be.
The princess of Enchancia looked inside the bag, taking out her new threads to see what they looked like. The scene changed to show the door closing, and after a few moments… Sofia emerged from her room, dressed like a civilian and wanting to know what was going on.
The camera rippled once more, showing that the flashback was ending.
And that is how it all came down to this moment. Sofia had been with the crew, who was surprised to see her there, and many were skeptical on her being an inter-universal traveler. Still, she stayed with the crew throughout everything. Although… she did remember the little stand-off she had against Capt. Gordon concerning Godzilla.
In his view, Godzilla was a fighter, a strong animal with strong instincts. However, Sofia had told him that while he may have fought monsters… she KNEW about certain ones, more so than he could ever hope to understand. And that she would consider Godzilla, now and always, a hero that was much more than meets the eye.
Sofia had witnessed it all; the trip to the South Pole towards Area G, the awakening of the new Godzilla from his icy prison, the chase which had her bear witness to all kinds of monsters… and of Godzilla's wrath. She tried to reach out to him, but even with the amulet's magic, there was something screwing up the mystical connection link.
What she, nor the others knew, it was due to the presence of the Xilien frequency that was being used to take control of the Earth Defenders who had been altered by said aliens. Said frequency was acting like a jammer, so Sofia could not connect to Godzilla.
And also she was told to stay in her room when they were approaching Tokyo and heading towards the Mothership of the Xiliens. It apparently was a good call, as Sofia escaped being captured by the Xiliens when they boarded the ship. When she emerged, she tried to work the controls of the ship… but she had no clue on what to even do.
And by sheer luck when pushing random buttons and levers, she managed to hack into the viewing network of the spaceship to see the battle between Godzilla & Mothra vs. Advanced Gigan & Monster X.
And when they came back to the ship, apparently with some new company in tow, some quick introductions were made before leaving the Mothership. And Sofia, along with the others, bared witness to seeing Monster X evolve into Keizer Ghidorah! And also when Ozaki managed to tap into his own unusual energy that mystified the girl to no end.
And the young girl from Enchancia had seen the energy being sent into Godzilla, revitalizing him and managing to turn the tables against his adversary completely!
And the camera was back to the present, focusing on Sofia as she tried to connect with Godzilla once more. This time, the amulet made a connection… but it started to glow red brightly, which had the occupants inside the ship be very much puzzled. Miyuki inquired, "Sofia, what is going on?".
Said princess opened her eyes and answered in a scared tone, "Its Godzilla… I finally made a connection with him but… all I feel from it is rage! Red, hot, burning rage! I need to…!".
Before she could finish, Godzilla turned to the Gotengo, his fearsome mind remembering that it was it that had trapped it in the icy depths many years ago. With revenge burning in his heart, and also still on high from the power boost he got from Ozaki, he let loose his blue Radiation Death Breath! The beam struck the ship, sparks flying within the bridge and everyone yelling in surprise and panic!
The ship managed to crash intact, but it was now badly damaged from the attack. The camera showed the people inside rising up, bruised a little but still alive. One of the pilots announced that the craft was down. Capt. Gordon spoke in an annoyed tone, "Son of a bitch… he just won't quit!".
Sofia had learned some vocabulary that she knew was bad, and made sure to NEVER speak those words… least she get something serious from her folks when she went back home.
He rose up from his seat, the camera showing the others also leaving with Sofia being the last. The scene changed outside, where the last humans on the planet were now facing off against undoubtedly the most powerful of all the Earth giant monsters! Sofia looked at the saurian, seeing that truly he was not the one she remembered… at least in the looks department.
A showdown of sort was there, the camera showing Godzilla ready to fight for a few moments before switching over to the humans. When it came to Miyuki and Sofia, both ladies turned their eyes & their eyes widened with the biologist exclaiming for all to look where they were at.
The camera changed to show Minilla coming in, the unique offspring of Godzilla! And he came jogging in, and the camera changed to showcase a small white, old pick-up truck coming in. From it came a small boy and an old man, the young lad having the name of Kenta & the old man wearing an old animal fur coat was his grandfather.
Minilla got in between the humans and Godzilla, staring up at the powerful fully-grown mutated saurian. The two newcomers stood with the others, Sofia calling out to the boy, "Excuse me, but who are you? And who is he?".
Kenta turned around and answered, "Hi there! My name is Kenta, and this is my grandfather. And the large dinosaur there is Minilla, my friend! He wanted to come here, so we follow him.".
The camera shifted to show the front-side of the two family members as the elderly man holding a rifle called out, "Hey Godzilla! It's over… you must forgive!".
Sofia was puzzled on that, asking what was it that he was talking about. Kenta turned around briefly and told her what his grandfather explained to him some time ago. He said that mankind did some very bad stuff, and that Godzilla got angry because of them.
This quickly solved the puzzle on what this particular Godzilla was so angry, filled with rage. She quickly processed all of the information… and soon knew what she had to do.
The camera changed to show Godzilla letting out a low growl, followed by a roar. It seemed that he was ready to fight still, the camera changing to show the various humans and mutant soldier getting ready also for a last stand. Even the grandfather got ready, aiming his rifle at the saurian…
And that is when Kenta did something brave; going in between the people with his arms spread out and becoming a barrier! Sofia and Miyuki were surprised at this, and more so when Minilla did the same!
Sofia felt that she had to do something now… and the amulet started to glow a brilliant purple color! This got everyone by surprise, especially Godzilla when he looked downwards. From his point of view, he was seeing a purple star that shone with energy.
The princess started forward, Miyuki reaching out to her to try and stop her but Ozaki prevented this as he grabbed her. The grandson and grandfather watched in amazement as well, the two parting as the princess of Enchancia continued towards the mighty behemoth. Minilla was entranced as well by the light, and also feeling stronger & also more at peace as well.
As Sofia walked towards Godzilla, she started to sing as music started to flow forth for all to hear:
[Your eyes so full of wonder…]
I have crossed the horizon to find you…
The scene changed from showing Sofia walking towards the camera to flashbacks; of when the Godzilla she knew had arrived, their adventures together, the days they stayed together, the day they parted & finally the day when Sofia made the wish on the amulet to see Godzilla once more.
[Your heart an innocent warrior!]
I know your name!
Godzilla's spines started to flash blue, the humans calling out to her but they were muffled by the music. Sofia did not flinch or give in to fear, still walking towards Godzilla.
[There's a task for you…]
They have stolen the heart from inside you…
The camera went to show a close-up of Godzilla's fierce face, soon going instantly for a close-up of his eyes that were still burning with red flames inside of them. The scene than changed to show flashbacks that were within his mind; the day he emerged from the depths of the ocean, the days when humans first on him every single time, the damage they had done to the planet, his battle in frozen wasteland where he was buried, his awakening & the battles he had to endure all up to this point in time.
[My dearest one…]
But this does not define you!
The camera changed to showcase Ozaki, who decided that enough was enough. He ran back to get her… but the amulet had different plans, as in a flash of light… wings that were like that on a young eagle formed on her back! This caused the humans, and also Ozaki, to flinch and step back from the flashy display. Sofia than tested her wings, and flew up in the air to meet Godzilla up close and personal… face-to-face!
[There's a task for you…]
This is not who you are!
Godzilla is perplexed on how the little human was displaying such abilities. However, he was still burning with rage… until he saw something! The camera showed the front of the floating Sofia… and behind her showed the ghostly, faint image of Heisei-Godzilla, his predecessor! Godzilla growled softly at the ghostly image, but the spirit did not back down. The camera showed that within the amulet right in the very center was a tooth… the tooth Heisei-era Godzilla gave to her before going back up to Heaven!
You know who you are!
The ghostly image of Godzilla roared loudly, apparently adding his power to Sofia via her amulet. The princess's spirit grew, the glow on her purple wings showcasing it! The power flowed into Godzilla, who growled as he felt the rage and anger just… ebb away. It seemed that Sofia's heart/soul/spirit was soothing the rage, quenching the flames until they were no more.
The camera showed the fire in Godzilla's eyes dying down completely, yet the fierce look still on his face. The camera zoomed out to show him staring at Sofia, the ghostly image of his ancestor now vanished, going back inside the amulet that had the tooth encased/embedded within it.
The enormous monster than growled softly… and bumped his snout gently to Sofia, who smiled and hugged the bumpy, gray-coal texture!
The camera switched from them to the humans down below, who were wide-eyed at seeing something that simply should not be possible. After finishing in showing the surprised/stunned faces of Kenta and his grandfather, the camera turned to Minilla who walked over to Godzilla and Sofia.
The princess turned and smiled down at him, going to him and hugging his little snout. The little one seemed to enjoy it, feeling the warmth from earlier still. Sofia giggled softly at the little saurian and stated, "You were very brave to do what you did. I can only hope that your bravery and courage get as strong as your relation here.".
The camera turned to showcase Godzilla, and soon Sofia who flew up over his head. The saurian let out a loud roar while the princess of Enchancia glowed a brilliant purple color over his head! The scene froze, and the screen soon faded to all black as the song & music faded and ended.
When the lights came back on, the screen reverting back to showcase the event banner & images, the crowd clapped and applauded very much! It was so great that it caused a vibration, a 2.9 on the Richter Scale! When the lights were fully back on, Dani and the others came back on the stage. Robin had the wireless mic in hand as she announced for all to hear, "Hey everyone! Let's give it up for Darkness Rissing, Sofia and all the others who made the music video possible! Go on, give them another round of applause please!".
The patrons of the dinner theater club obliged, cheering and clapping louder than ever as the spotlight was now on the rising forms of the Author and the stars that were featured in the music video. The screen changed to show the cast of the Toho film, also taking their bows as well. They were shown on the screen for several moments, before it changed to showcase Final Wars-Godzilla, Heisei-era Godzilla and Minilla!
The stars of the music video made by the Author took their praise with grace and dignity, Sofia's clothing soon reverting back to her regular formal attire. After some moments, the cheering gradually ceased and allowed the trio on stage to continue.
Robin handed the mic back to Danielle, who thanked her and announced, "Okay everyone, that is nine music videos down, six more to go! We'll be going to commercials now, but to all of you watching out there in your various screens, don't worry! We'll be back soon! And for those of you here with us, go out and enjoy yourselves more until we come back on the air!".
The three received cheering and clapping from the audience, the camera lights situated around the place turning off to indicate that they were now off the air.
Dani and Peter went over to the Fentons, while Robin went back over to her parents. The Multi-Dimensional Rock Heads came on stage this time, Ember now playing the music & singing the song known as Break Free from an Irish-American musical group that started out in the 1970s and still continued on through the years named The Kelly Family.
Many went out onto the dance floor, some went to go back to the Thanksgiving buffet area, others got their picture taken with their favorite characters thanks to Clarabelle Cow and her camera, many went to the Halls to either play or look up whatever information they wanted & a lot went to the video arcade to play the classic and modern games that were set up.
Things were heating up at the 3rd Annual Disney/Toho Kaiju Music Video event, and it was only halfway done!
(Author's Notes: And… cut! That is it for this chapter! I hope you all enjoyed this one! It was a bit difficult for me to write, but again, give praise and thanks to the Lord for helping me out here!
Jesus, I really owe you so much for not just helping me out with this but also with life as well. Things have been rough and more for me, family, friends and everyone here on Earth. So thank you for comforting us, guiding us & also correcting/disciplining us when we need it very much so that we do not ever follow the ways of the world. I ask you God to please look out for my family and friends, and also those around the world that need you very much on all levels.
I continue to hope and pray for the complete and utter end of this pandemic nightmare. That COVID and its variants are all decimated for good, and also those responsible for creating and spreading this unnatural plague to be exposed completely and brought to real justice! I also hope and pray for the complete end of this New Normal/Do The Five Thing rules and regulations lifestyle as well.
Nine music videos down, six more to go! And to those who have sent me their music video requests, they WILL be shown and done to your specifications to the best of my ability! Also, you can thank Author Dreams Come True 996 for the mini-pizza idea! I really hope to see more reviews soon, especially from certain others that have not reviewed yet & that I hope they are okay.
I did my best with Gamera, especially since I have seen some of his movies and the turtle seems to hold some true potential and promise. And like the song from Michael Bolton, I would like to see him and certain other giant monsters that have been neglected for years to 'get back on their feet again'.
Also, how did you like my OC characters I made for Batty and Bartok; female Egyptian Fruit Bat Thandiwe & another albino Russian bat Efrosinia? I figured the two funny characters deserved some excellent women in their lives, and I hope you all approve. I gave them names based on where they came from, via NAMES-20000 website.
The joke that Statler and Waldorf said here… my Dad would often say that whenever me or any of our other family members sang. It was a good joke though, and it made us all laugh. Heh… we have three small whiteboards at my home that showcase all of the quotes and such he would say. Man… I miss my Dad so much. And even though I hear his voice from videos and such that I see… just doesn't feel the same. Still, I am glad that it is up and that we have a lot of videos and pictures to remember him by.
So to all of you out there, I recommend doing as much as you can with family and loved ones. And take many pictures and videos as you can with them, both old and new-school style. In this day and age, you never know what may happen…
And also this… I have been seeing a lot of classic animated cartoons, vintage TV series & old movies for some time now, bringing back a lot of memories from my childhood. And I want to keep them as they are, not to replace them with the reboots/remakes that have been spawning out recently. I am old school on a lot of levels, and proud of it. So I hope that perhaps one day, the vintage cartoons/movies/series will be making comebacks!
And prepare to see a lot of old references and such coming from me in my stories.
And also, I will do better in the next chapter. I apologize if this one is a little short and strange, but give the way things have turned out recently, did my best here. But WILL do better in the next chapter!
Now for the questions! Ahem…
What kind of snacks would you get at the HoM Souvenir Shop? They sell cookies, small cakes, candy, various sweets, healthy alternative snacks & mini-pizzas in the shape of various Toho/Monsterverse/RKO/MGM monsters. And who would you like to share them with?
What would be saying after seeing Batty and Bartok's mates that I made for them? And what kind of advice would you give Waspinator, concerning both making the audience laugh & in creating a friendship with Luna Mothews?
If you could help Miyako Gōtokuji, Monique Williams & Clawdeen Wolf-Rosenblatt in designing some new wardrobe for the year 2022, what would you suggest to them? And if you met Dick Tracy and any of the other vintage stars from his movie, what would you do or say?
If you were with the kids in seeing Rhinox with the others, what would you say to him?
During the first music video here, what would you when Maui said that he did not deserve to be honored during the feast? And what would you say or do at seeing Kong using sign language near the end?
During the second music video here, what would you say to Jack concerning his wanting to be a legend that would live on for generations instead of just quietly fading away? And if Jack did manage to find something to control Gamera, what do you think the results would be?
During the third music video, if you were transported with Sofia to the Toho universe, what would you say to her? And also if you were with Sofia in staring down Final Wars-Godzilla, what would you say and/or do to the big guy to calm him down?
And finally this… when the commercials came on and the cameras were turned off, what would you be doing?
Here is the optional bonus question! In the third music video, Sofia had paintings of each of her family members and herself with the Toho monsters they bonded to. If you had a portrait done of yourself with a giant monster, who would it be? And also what pose would you do with said giant monster?
R&R, no flames, enjoy and leave LONG reviews!)
