Curse of the Unbelievable

Chapter Four: Clash of Kings.

Skull Island: Godzilla vs Kong.

In the pouring rain, and among the flames started by a stray lightning bolt, Godzilla Junior and Kong were fighting amongst the rubbles of the centerpiece of Skull Island, which would soon sink into the ocean and leave no evidence of the battle behind. Junior had managed to get some good blows on Kong as soon as the battle began, but soon realized that Kong was much tougher than he seemed to be. With one punch, Kong had managed to stagger the young king, and then with an uppercut, sent him flying into a nearby tree. Kong smiled as he saw Junior struggling to get up, and then raising his axe up in the air, prepared to bring it down on his head.

"You were hardly even a challenge. You are no king. Just another piece of waste that I have to kill."

Junior then stopped the axe with his bare hands, his eyes burning as he stared into Kong's soul, his dorsal plates glowing a soft orange. The explosion sent Kong flying into the air, his axe going elsewhere, and Junior leaped up after him and body slammed him into the ground, and started to whale away at Kong's face, eventually knocking out one of his canines. A jolt of electricity stopped his next punch, as Kong's axe came flying back and buried itself into his side. With a roar of pain Junior stepped off as Kong let another lightning bolt hit him, causing his whole body to surge with power.

"This is my gift to you Godzilla. LET ME SHOW YOU THE POWER OF MY TRIBE!"

Junior could feel the chained kunai wrap around his gills, and could feel the electricity cooking and burning his skin, before he ripped the axe out of his side, and charged up a spiral ray. The beam roared with power as it hit Kong in the shoulder, and broke the electric field around him, thus saving Junior. He then charged into Kong, who continued to punch him as they both fell into the burning jungle, and then grabbed Kong by his leg and tossed him into a burning log. The fire did nothing to Kong.

"Stay down. I don't want to kill you. The Master is manipulating you."

"Never."

Kong gripped a burning tree, ignoring the pain he felt as the flames licked his flesh and used it as a club to attack Junior who grabbed onto it, as he started to grow angrier. For a brief moment, Kong could almost swear that he saw Junior's chest glow red, but decided to ignore it as he summoned his axe back to him and then started swinging rapidly, hoping to chop his opponent into pieces. Junior saw the first swing and managed to leap out of the way as Kong seemed to gain a brief moment of clarity, staring at Junior in shock.

"What? Why?...I Can't….Help…me….."

Junior's eyes narrowed as Kong pounded his chest and roared as he jumped into the air and slammed the axe into the ground, followed by a loud sound and the jungle floor exploding as Junior went flying up into the air. "His anger has let Varan's darkness cloud him, if I can just defeat him without killing him, then I can save him." Kong's chain once again wrapped around him, the propeller blade cutting into his flesh, and electricity surging through it. Kong swung Junior around and slammed him into the ground with a blue explosion. Junior then fired off an atomic ray, which Kong narrowly dodged by leaping up into the air.

"So, you can fire off a beam? Not impressive."

Kong's left hand started glowing blue as electricity crawled up his arm, and as he landed back onto the ground, Junior could see a small ball of blue energy forming in the palm of his hand, and then Kong started running towards him. Junior charged up another atomic ray, and started charging towards Kong as well, and the burning forest was soon decimated as the atomic ray collided with the energy ball Kong fired out of his hand. The orange and blue explosion could be seen for miles. Kong saw Junior looking at him, and could tell that the young kaiju had no idea how to beat Kong. Summoning his axe towards him, Kong walked towards Junior, ready to cleave off his head with the axe, and noticed a small tree with green on its leaves right next to him.

"Are you ready to give up?" Kong then grabbed the tree, and stuck it down Junior's throat as he tried to fire off another atomic ray, noticing the telltale orange glow on his dorsal plates. "What's the matter? Speechless?" The tree was incinerated by the ray, and Kong attempted to raise his axe to defend himself, but it was too late.

The beam hit its mark, and Kong fell to the ground with a hole in his shoulder. Red blood trickled on the ground, with little ripples being created by the rain drops.

"I…am…..sorry. I wish it didn't have to end this way…and I wish I could've saved you Kong." Junior panted as he looked down at the fallen ape, who was breathing slower and slower. Kong then started muttering something, and Junior noticed the lightning storm getting more intense and the wind howling around them. For a minute, he thought he heard Angurius's Sonic Roar, but brushed it off as the wind playing tricks with his mind. Then Kong's voice grew louder, as Junior realized that he was getting back up, despite his seemingly fatal injury. Kong was smiling, something that chilled Junior to the bone as he realized that the ape was much much more than he seemed to be.

"I figured you would do something like that. Fact of the matter is, that I've never needed to use this power I have before, because all of my opponents weren't as powerful as you. You know…. you're pretty good kid, but only one of use will stand by the end of the day, and if this helps me beat you, then I guess it's worth the risk. NOW, THUNDER MODE ACTIVATE!" A massive azure beam came out of the sky, and enveloped Kong in a blue light, and briefly blinded Junior, who was able to cover his eyes with a hand. When the beam disappeared and the rain came down harder and harder, Junior removed his hand to see Kong fully healed, his thick black fur sizzling with blue bolts of electricity, and the lower parts of his arms and legs glowing a soft blue. It was the same with his entire chest, and his eyes. Junior readied himself as Kong leaped at him, and started by smacking Kong with his tail. Much to his surprise, Kong caught it and then tossed him across the forest they were in. Then firing off an energy ball, Kong was able to hit Junior with it, causing the young kaiju to scream in pain.

"Kong listen to me! The darkness of The Master has clouded your mind even further! You are not a murderer!" Kong punched Junior, and started to choke him with a cold look in his eyes, as darkness leaked out of them. Junior was able to fire off a nuclear pulse to surprise Kong, and took advantage of his confusion to grab and restrain him. Kong's axe had fallen to the ground as Kong growled in anger. Junior could feel the energy start to bleed into him at a fast rate, and then lost his grip as Kong fired out an energy pulse, and picked up his axe again and charged up another energy ball. Sliding back, Junior could feel his chest start to feel warmer and warmer as he realized with dread what was about to happen.

"DIE!"

Junior fired off an atomic ray and was able to destroy the ball, but then he could feel the heat come to a climb as he watched his chest turn red, followed by other parts of his body all the way to his dorsal plates. "Just like Father…It's happening to me now! But why does it feel so different? Where is the pain he felt? Will it come if I stay in this form for a while? Despite how powerful I feel, I need to get out of this from before it kills me. However, this form might give me what I need to beat Kong." Godzilla Junior now bore a striking resemblance to how his father had looked near the end of his life, with many of the red spots on the same places that his father had them. The heat from his body was starting to melt the rocks and land of Skull Island, and yet at the same time was starting to burn Junior faster than he could heal himself. There was an explosion in the distance, and Kong saw part of the island fall into the water, and he realized that his end was coming soon. With a mighty punch from both, the fists of the kaiju collided and they both started trading blows with each other as they ran around and fought in the air, the power of Burning Mode and Thunder Mode making them equal. Kong was able to draw white blood from Junior as his axe sunk into his shoulder, but to his shock, Junior seemed to shrug it off and clawed his face, causing him to bleed from it. Then he could feel steam coming off his body as he took in his heat, and unleashed a Nuclear Pulse, one that reduced more trees to cinders, and blew back Kong. The two now stood right outside of the jungle, which had been destroyed by the fighting, and were a good distance away from each other. Had Kong not been so blinded by rage, he might have noticed that he was standing right in front of his parents' skeletons, their skulls seemingly looking on with sadness at the sight of their son corrupted by darkness.

"You and I both know that we can't do this forever," Kong growled as he stood back up and started channeling all of his Thunder Mode power that he could, "You can't handle all that power can you? It's going to kill you if you don't get it all out? I guess you couldn't handle the power of Thunder Mode!" Kong's grin widened as Junior saw the darkness come behind him, taking the form of Kong. A massive energy ball was forming in his free hand, while he started summoning lightning bolts with his axe, and the rain fell harder and harder. Junior let the lighting hit him, feeling their power adding to his Burning Mode, and grinned wildly.

"Heh heh heh HAHAHHAHAHHAHA!" Junior laughed as he started charging up a supercharged Spiral Ray, "I see the darkness that is corrupting you Kong. It's done a good job of poisoning your mind, and amplifying your feelings of hatred towards me, even though I've done nothing to you. Do you even know why your home is being destroyed? Or did you just want to find a scapegoat, because you can't deal with it being lost? I know loss Kong, and sometimes you can't stop it from happening!" A red aura and steam came around Junior as the Spiral Ray charged more and more. But he was not going to fire it out and have another struggle with Kong, as every minute he spent in Burning Mode would lead closer to meeting the same fate as his father. Clenching one of his fists, he felt the energy inside of him move into the fist, and the heat disappearing from the majority of his body.

Nor was Kong going to fire out his Energy Ball and have a struggle with Junior, because it would be a waste of time, something that he didn't have anymore. Thunder Mode was something new to him, and he could feel he barely touched the full potential of the form, and that he was running out of energy. He would have to choose a constructive way to use the rest of his power, and thus win the battle with Junior. And yet, he could feel something press on his mind, something that was telling him, "Don't kill him. You've been lied to. You need to BREAK FREE! He's corrupting you." Of course, he pushed it aside, and channeled his power into his fist, deciding to copy what Junior was doing.

The two Kaiju stared at each other, their energy auras illuminating the battlefield in shades of red and blue. The two waited for one to make the first move, and then prayed their blows would strike true, and thus defeat their enemy.

Then a lightning bolt hit the ground…. followed by the crashing cacophony of thunder.

And the two jumped towards each other, Junior using his tail to lift himself in the air, and Kong using his powerful legs. They prepared a powerful punch, and as soon as another lightning bolt hit the ground, the two released their punches as they landed, the shockwave rippling across the ground.

For Godzilla Junior, he could feel Kong's powered up fist drive into his chest, the electricity surging through his body…..

For Kong, he could feel a burning sensation in his chest as Junior's burning fist drive into his chest, the heat surging through his body…..

There was complete silence.

And then, Kong felt thunder mode leave him, as Junior's fist pierced through his chest, and with an explosion of red, a strange dark shadow left his body, and was consumed by the fire, writhing in agony as it disappeared from existence. Junior's red markings disappeared, and he collapsed to the ground, barely being able to stand up as Kong fell flat on his back, his axe lying next to him.

It was over…..

"I'm…..free….My thoughts….aren't clouded anymore," Kong murmured as he laid in the rain, right next to his parents skeletons. He looked over to them, and whimpered softly as he realized that he would soon see them again, if his wound remained open and if he was not healed soon.

"I…did…it." Junior limped over to Kong, his healing kicking in slowly, as he looked at Kong, feeling sympathy for the ape. "Can you stand up Kong? Can you heal yourself? We need to get off this island. I don't want you to become a pawn of The Master, or for Varan to find you."

"I…. could…try…. with my axe…. but why…...should…I…?" Kong weakly sat up, nursing his wound. Junior bent down to see Kong face to face, while Kong rested his back against a rock wall. "I've failed to save Skull Island, and I've disgraced my parents by listening to that lying snake, so you know what kid? Maybe this is karma, and maybe I was supposed to fall in battle with you…...a fitting end for the so called "King of Skull Island," don't you think?"

"Your parents…do you still miss them? Do you think they would really want you to give up like this?" Kong turned around with a pained look in his eyes, and silently watched Junior for a few minutes. Faint thunder, raindrops, and a rumble as part of the island fell into the ocean was all that was heard as Kong and Junior stared at each other.

"I always will, no matter what happens from here on out, and no, I know they wouldn't. Kid, when you said you know loss…. what did you mean by that?"

"My father…. he died a few years ago….and I failed to protect him….. My home was also destroyed, and like you….. I wanted to give up living." Junior's hand shook as he remembered the first few days without his father, and how he so desperately wished he stayed dead and his father had lived on.

"Oh…. I'm so sorry…" Kong stood up shakily, and put his arm around Junior, who supported him with his weight. "If you're curious about my parents… I was only a child when they died…and I still have nightmares about their last moments…Varan promised that Chiros would save my home…and I was hoping he'd bring them back too. I really did, because….I still miss them. I was so damn stupid to trust him…."

"You made an honest mistake Kong…and if I had to be frank, had he contacted me a few years ago and told me he would bring my father back to life and restore our home, then I might've done whatever he wanted me to do." Junior snorted as he thought of this scenario, and clenched his fist as Kong removed his arm and stood upright, albeit unbalanced.

"You mention your father, but what about your mother kid? Didn't you have one too?"

"She is a human, even though she is not the one who laid my egg. She couldn't leave her world and come to live in mine…and by now, she's most likely forgotten about me."

"I had lived with humans on this island once," Kong sadly reminisced as long forgotten memories of Skull Island surfaced, "They worshiped me as a god or something like that, but now, they're all gone…and I miss them….." Another rumble and crack lead to a surge of seawater covering part of the island, and then a big boom sounded in the sky as Kong raised his axe up in the air, weakly waiting for something to happen. "My home is falling in the ocean…...but….now I have a reason to live…." The rain started to pour harder as another boom of thunder and the flash of lighting tore across the sky. "Skull Island's time is done here on this planet…but my story isn't over yet….." Another flash tore across the sky as a faint blue light over took Kong's body, causing Junior to back away and tilt his head as he saw red flesh start to grow back into the hole. "Chiros…...whoever he is…..and whoever follows him…will do this to the entire planet….and…I won't let that happen….no more…no more…." With another boom, a lighting bolt struck Kong, and he stood up straighter than ever, fully healed with a solemn look on his face.

"If you're really going to be my ally Kong, then it's time we properly introduced ourselves. I am Godzilla Junior, the son of Godzilla, the King of the Monsters."

"I am Kong, the King of Skull Island, and the Last of the Great Ape tribe, and the wielder of the Lightning of the Heavens…."

And with that, both grabbed each other's hand, and stared intensely, before letting go as they heard the sound of laughter.

"Heh heh heh heh….."

"Varan!" Kong bellowed as he beat his chest, "SHOW YOURSELF YOU TREACHEROUS REPTILE! YOU'VE MADE A GRAVE MISTAKE AND NOW YOU'LL PAY FOR IT!" Junior looked at Kong as he charged up an atomic ray, while Kong charged up with electricity, both waiting for Varan to respond. Then he looked to the side, and saw a long four-legged shape seemingly fly over the both of them silently, and land in front of them, with glowing green eyes, dorsal spikes, and claws contrasting his purple scales. Varan landed gently, green venom dripping from his mouth, and shadows dotting the ground as shapes of Skull Crawlers and V-Rexs took form, their white eyes staring blanky at the two kaiju before them.

"Misssstake? No, it wassss you who made a misssstake, by throwing your lot in with my Masssster'ssss enemiessss. I'm afraid I'll have to kill you now. A sssshame really, you would've made a good ally in my Masssster'ssss plan." Varan suddenly shot purple liquid out of his mouth, which Junior countered with an atomic ray, burning through the sludge and surprising Varan. "Hmmm…...you are sssstronger than I'd thought you'd be. Twice the power, double the fall…."

"I won't let you spread your evil anymore Varan!" Junior fired another atomic ray at Varan who leaped up onto a boulder as the island let off another rumble and Kong noticed the dormant volcano showing signs of activity. "Kong and I can take you both on!" Both charged at Varan who quickly summoned up several Shadow Demons to fight the both of them. "And when we're finished with you, your Master is next! DO YOU HEAR ME!?"

"I think not. My Sssshadow Demonssss sssshould be enough for me to take you on!" Varan leaped over the Shadow Demons and started slashing wildly at Junior, who felt a burning pain as Varan's green venom entered his bloodstream. Punching the reptile off his face, he quickly grabbed Varan by his tail and swung him at Kong, who was busy destroying several Shadow Demons with his kunai and axe. Kong then punched Varan with an electrically charged punch, and smiled as he saw the reptile's eye pop out of his head, and flew into a rock, splitting his skull open, causing green liquid to come out of his head. The eye was barely hanging by its long red nerve, as Varan growled softly at what they had done to him.

"What was that you said? Your Shadow Demons would be enough to take the both of us on? Looks like they've been no help at all!" Kong laughed as he watched Junior use a nuclear pulse to destroy several who had swarmed him and then both continued to work their way to Varan, who summoned more and more as they got closer. Blasts of blue and orange lead to a mass amount of dark smoke filling the skies of Skull Island. Varan then climbed up a rock and fired out more of his sludge, which missed due to his eye hanging out of his head. "And you can't aim either! What's next? You going to fly?!" Varan got higher up on the rock as Junior and Kong charged towards him, and then smiled as he stood upright, and spread out his arms.

"I am known assss Varan the Unbelievable to everyone but you. My cursssse has sssstruck your issssland and reduced it to nothing but a wassssteland. And NOW I SSSSPREAD MY CURSSSSE TO YOU!"

Leaping as a thunder bolt and an atomic ray hit where he was standing, Varan extended his membrane and glided swiftly in the air. Narrowly dodging Kong's thunder strikes, he latched onto the ape and sunk his fangs into his flesh, and started to pump his venom in. "GET. OFF. HIM!" Junior grabbed Varan, ignoring the spike being dug through his hand, and ripped the reptile off and tossed him into the air. Kong lept up in the air, as the venom oozed out of his wound, and grabbed Varan and with a loud crack, broke the reptile's spine over his knee.

"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" Varan started to convulse as Kong grabbed his jaws and started pulling and pulling, until another loud crack sounded off in the air, and Varan stopped moving as Kong ripped off his lower jaw, green blood spraying everywhere as he tossed the body into the air, and chopped off the rest of his head with his lightning charged axe. Varan's body skidded to a stop, and his head laid in a green puddle, as the hanging eye finally fell off.

"Kong, don't you think that was too easy?"

"What? He was all talk, and if it weren't for you, he might've killed me."

"I'm curioussss," Varan's head hissed as Kong and Junior opened their mouths in shock and backed away as they saw his body start to crack back into shape, and his blood started oozing back into it, "After killing me, what were you going to do next? Ssssave Mothra? No, my Masssster is playing with her right now." Kong scratched his head in confusion, while Junior's eyes widened as he realized the howl he had heard earlier might not have been the wind.

"No…. MOTHRA!" Junior immediately attempted to run, but Varan's headless body blocked his way, purple liquid and green spewing out of the ragged flesh at his neck as ligaments became whole again, and nerves and blood vessels stretched out of his neck like tendrils. Inserting themselves into the head, the eye crawled back in and set itself right while the head was gently lowered onto the body, and Varan grinned once again as Junior and Kong stood in shock, unable to comprehend what they had seen.

"What. The. Hell. Are. You?" That was all Kong could say, ignoring the loud rumbles as the volcano continued to stir, and Skull Island's collapse continued.

"I told you, I am Varan the Unbelievable….and you're my prey now…"

Junior and Kong looked on, wondering how they would be able to kill the Unbelievable…and live.

Skull Island continued to collapse, and all was normal in the outside world.

Author's Note: Hey everyone its me again. So I am sorry for the length of time the chapter took to come out, but anyways here it is, the Godzilla vs Kong fight. I actually found this pretty hard to write, especially since I knew from the beginning that this fight would be one most were looking forward too, and I wanted to do it well. Anyways, you'll also notice some changes in the voice actors, as I had initially put G.O.R.T's actor as a Cylon voice, which is to say he technically didn't have a voice actor. So after hours of looking, I chose Gregg Berger as G.O.R.T due to his performance as Kalani from Star Wars The Clone Wars, who is an emotionless droid who sounds like a Cylon. Also, Burning Mode and Thunder Mode will return in the future, albeit Thunder Mode will change as Kong learns its full potential, while Burning Mode might be more of a danger to Junior.
