Somewhere in Australia
Several hours later
Vanessa Stevenson had been rudely awakened when Mothra attacked Okinawa. As the Chief of the Earth Defense Force Vanessa had to know of every monster-related event as soon as it happened. With a cup of coffee and a headache Vanessa sat at a world map with six other personal. They were all generals who each commanded the EDF in a particular region. At the Asia commander had the most to worry about with the Rodan attacks. "We already know the no air force can stand against the Rodan, so the Super X much be launched," the Asia general said. "But there are two moving in different directions. The Super X is only one machine," Vanessa said. "The larger Rodan is moving directly west. It's very possible it's moving towards the western hemisphere rather than striking any place else in Russia. The other one though is heading directly towards where the Super X is currently stationed," said the Asia general. "If the Rodan heading west strikes at America then the MOGERA can be deployed, right?" the America general inquired. "None of our Mechs have seen real combat. We can't really know what would happen when they engaged Rodan, or any other monsters," Vanessa mentioned. "We built them for this exact purpose, they have to work!" the Africa commander exclaimed. "Actually, each one was built with Godzilla in mind, not flying reptiles," the Europe general pointed out. "We can only hope, I guess," Vanessa said. "Deploy the Super X and keep MOGERA on standby. I want the MechaGodzilla ready for action also. We never know when another monster may attack any where in the world."
Several miles outside Beijing, China Hour later
The air base outside the capitol of China was no different from any other with the exception of what was laying dormant on the main runway. The wing-shaped Super X was stationed in China to watch over potential terrorist, but with the orders to prepare for a Rodan attack an hour before the crew of the air ship was more excited than ever.
"After five years of serving on this thing we finally get some real action!" George McClelland was said enthusiastically in the bridge of the black vessel. He was the commander of the energy weapons on the ship
"It's only a Rodan. This probably won't even be a challenge," Tomoyuki Tanaka, the captain of the Super X, said nonchalantly.
"Don't get too excited there," Maria Bores said sarcastically. She took care of the missiles, bombs, and cannons.
"He's only being realistic," said Ryo Omani, the engines commander.
Though these four people were the commanders of the flying battle fortress a dozen other people were milling around in the ship, keeping up maintenance and making sure the machines did their jobs. The Super X is an incredibly complex vessel and required more than computers to regulate what went on inside it.
"Rodan are one of the weaker monsters. And this isn't called a flying battle fortress for nothing. That thing will probably go down in just a few minutes. Nothing too exciting," Ryo continued.
"Flying Battle Fortress Super X, you are clear to launch," the air base commander said.
"Ryo, activate the vertical thrusters and charge the boosters." Tanaka ordered. "That Rodan will be here any minute."
The engines along the belly of the air craft ignited, spitting bright orange flames. They pushed the Super X into the air, causing the air beneath the ship to wave in the heat. The three rear engines spat blue energy as it boosted the Super X towards Beijing at half the speed of sound. The ship slowed as it came over the city and continued flying above it, waiting for the grey Rodan.
"Incoming from north-west-west at Mach two and decelerating," Tanaka said. "Altitude ten thousand feet and descending a hundred per minute."
"That's Rodan alright," said George.
"Maria, prepare the Frontier missiles. We'll start out simple with it."
The gigantic, grey Rodan finally came into view. The monster squawked threateningly when it saw the flying black ship. Its cry was met with four silver, red-tipped missiles. Unlike the weapons of the jets in Russia these missiles actually hurt the Rodan. The creature was engulfed in a ball of smoke and flame that flowed of it as it fell to the ground. Red blood flew from the gaping wounds the Rodan now had, one in its right wing, two on its back, and another on its left shoulder. The monster crashed into a complex of small structures, sending dust and debris into the air.
"If it gets back up we should try to lure it away from the city," Ryo suggested.
"That's a very good idea, but first let's tries to make sure it doesn't get back. George, fire a pair of masers at Rodan. Ryo, put the X in hover mode around Rodan," Tanaka commanded as he piloted the Super X back around to the monster.
Rodan roared in pain, flapping its wings causing winds the swayed the buildings around it. From the nose of the Super X came two blue energy beams that flew through the air with a shrill whine. As the Flying Battle Fortress hovered over the reptile the masers pounded into its grey body, producing more bloody wounds that spat more dark red blood.
The Rodan finally gathered the energy for a heat beam and fired at its attacker. The yellow beam was deflected harmlessly by the heat shield that shimmered with the colors of the rainbow with each hit.
"Maria, fire another set of Frontier missiles. George, switch to the plasma grenade."
The masers stopped suddenly, giving the Rodan a break before four more Frontier missiles exploded around it. The nose of the Super X began to glow white and yellow. When the plasma grenade was fully charged a ball of energy was blasted at the dieing monster. Rodan gave one final cry before its body was swallowed up in the blast. A small mushroom cloud rose above the grave of the small reptilian bird, throwing the grey remains of it across the city.
"Target annihilated," Tanaka declared.
"I guess you were right. That was too easy," George said.
"Let's pray our other encounters are just like that," Tanaka replied, though his voice suggested he wished for more.
