Chapter 2: vs. Kamacuras
"Stop this construction!"
"Save Mt. Moon!"
"Stop this project!"
Huge groups of people are at the base of Mt. Moon going on strike. The president of Silph Co. decided to expand the company by constructing more buildings, and he wants Mt. Moon to be removed in order to go on with his plan. Many people are not happy with this. They want Mt. Moon to stay as it is and they also don't want the Pokemon living there to be homeless.
The president watches from a nearby fort. "Just what are those people doing?" he asks the foreman. The foreman replies, "They are against your plan to destroy Mt. Moon and expand your company. But don't worry, they'll never be able to stop us."
The phone rings and the foreman pick it up. "Hello?"
"The TNT have been set up," says the voice on the phone. "Ready to detonate?"
The foreman puts down the phone and turns to the president. "Want to set it off?"
"Just do it," the president tells him.
The foreman carries out the order, and the worker presses the detonator. An explosion destroys a big portion of Mt. Moon. The explosion was so loud that everyone had to close his or her ears! The president steps up to everyone and says, "I know you are against this project, but it is for the good of our future. If more offices are built, then our country can have better inventions and technology. You all will be thankful when this project is finished."
Erika, Celadon's gym leader, steps up to the president and says, "You are doing the wrong thing. Why don't go build your buildings somewhere else instead of here? Mt. Moon is an important environment for many Pokemon, especially the rare and elusive Clefairy. If you destroy Mt. Moon just to expand your office, then you are taking the lives of many wild Pokemon! You are destroying Mother Nature!"
The president turns away from her. "Nature don't have minds, so they don't feel a thing when ruined. You'll change your mind soon enough."
At this moment, beneath Seafoam Island, part of it begins to shatter. A big hole bursts open from beneath the island and a black caterpillar-like monster with a yellow horn on its head appears. He has only one goal, and that is too destroy humanity…
The Magnet Train stops at Saffron City. When the door opens, Bugsy and Crystal rush out. "We must get to Vermilion port quick!" says Bugsy. "The ship is leaving soon!"
At Vermilion City harbor, the SS Aqua is docked at the port. "Only two more crews," says Lt. Surge, who had been promoted to be SS Aqua's captain. "They better come quick."
"Oh look!" points out a sailor. "There they are!"
Bugsy and Crystal runs to the ship fast. "Are we late?" asks Crystal, still panting. "We're leaving now," Surge tells her. "So get on fast."
They all aboard the ship, and no sooner, it sails off.
"Okay, let me tell you about it again," Surge tells them both. "It appears that an uncharted island has been found out at sea. I have decided to become the first person to set foot on that island."
"You want me to come because there might be new Pokemon to catch, right?" asks Crystal.
"Yeah, and you're also a great trainer. You'll never now if a new Pokemon species shows up."
"As an archaeologist, I decided to go see if there's anything to discover," adds Bugsy.
Blaine steps into the room. "I also came along to discover new Pokemon."
Meanwhile, off the coast of Fuchsia City, a monster is spotted. "What is that?" one guy asks. "Maybe it's a new Pokemon!" another exclaims.
KRAPF, which stands for Kanto Rescue and Protection Force, had send a jet to investigate the thing coming towards Fuchsia. KRAPF was created to protect the country from enemy invasions. "This monster is approaching Fuchsia City at high speed!" says the woman at the main computer. "Something must be done to stop this monster!" says the general. "We can't let it destroy Fuchsia City like that other monster who attacked Olivine City!"
Battle jets were immediately sent to attack the black monster. The monster, known as Battra, swims at high speed towards the city. The jets fire missiles at it, but nothing is stopping Battra from moving. Within a minute, Battra crashes onto the land and everyone at the beach runs off screaming. Battra roars and heads toward Fuchsia City.
All the citizens run off screaming as Battra starts to destroy all the houses. Tanks and jets blast their cannons and missiles at Battra. Battra blasts a purple electric beam at the war machines, destroying them all.
The general of KRAPF watches the destruction scene from a huge screen in his HQ. "Never have we been attacked by a huge monster before… How can this ever happen…?" the general says, frightened.
Battra continues to go on rampage throughout Fuchsia City. More jets and tanks came to attack him, but Battra immediately destroys them all. When majority of the city is destroyed, Battra heads back to the sea and swims away.
"Where is it going?" the general wonders.
The next morning, SS Aqua has sighted land. "That's the island," says Surge. "They call it Infant Island. Don't ask why."
"What are you going to do, captain?" a sailor asks him.
"Me, Crystal, Bugsy, and Blaine are going to that island alone," he tells the sailor. "You stay here until I said so."
The four of them got into Surge's private submarine, which has been remodeled to a larger size. The submarine goes under the sea and soon lands on Infant Island.
"Okay, we will explore this place for two days. If there's nothing, then let's get outta here," Surge tells them.
"I wish we encounter new Pokemon," Crystal thought.
The four of them traveled through thick forests and even climbed up rocks. "Are you sure you can get through this?" Bugsy asks Blaine. "You're an old man!"
"Don't worry," Blaine tells him. "My bones are still strong."
After some hours of traveling, Surge complains, "There's nothing on this island except trees and rocks! There are no signs of life either! It's like coming to Mars! Except there's air here."
"Maybe you should reconsider that," Blaine tells him while pointing to a high mountain. "Look!" They all look up and see Kamacuras, the giant praying mantis. "What a huge mantis!" exclaims Bugsy. "I have seen one this big!"
Crystal takes out her Pokedex and detects Kamacuras. "Not a Pokemon, so no information is found," says the Pokedex. "This isn't a Pokemon!" says Crystal.
"But if it isn't a Pokemon," says Blaine. "How can it be that big?!"
"Talk later!" Surge tells them. "It's gonna attack us!" Kamacuras jumps down from its place and strikes with its big sharp scythes. The four of them quickly jumps off to avoid getting hit. "It's attacking us! We must fight back!" says Crystal. She throws all her Pokeballs and sent out her Pokemon. "Arcanon, Fire Blast! Megapon, Razor Leaf!"
The Arcanine blasts a big fiery Chinese character and the Meganium fire lots of razor-sharp leaves. Kamacuras uses his scythes to block the attack. Bugsy sends out his Heracross. "Go bash it in the leg!" The Heracross runs to Kamacura's leg and headbutts it hard, but Kamacuras didn't budge at all. Blaine and Lt. Surge call out all their fire and electric Pokemon to attack the giant mantis, but the attacks aren't hurting it.
"It's no use!" exclaims Crystal. "This mantis isn't feeling a single pain!"
Kamacuras slams down its massive scythes, but the four quickly ran off before it hits the ground. Crystal and Bugsy ride on Arcanon to run faster and Blaine and Surge rides on Blaine's Rapidash. They kept running until they came to an old bridge.
"Seeing a bridge means there used to be civilization here," says Bugsy.
"Enough historical talk!" Surge yells at him. "It's coming!"
Without even thinking, the four of them runs across the bridge. The bridge can't take their weight, so its ropes break apart and the bridge breaks on one side and swings towards the other side of the cliff! The four of them held to the wooden boards to avoid falling. They started climbing up the boards. "Quick! Climb faster!" Blaine shouts. "The rope is going to break!" They all made it to the top, except for Bugsy. Just before he reaches the top, the rope breaks and he falls! "Naton! Go rescue him!" Crystal orders her Natu. Naton flies down fast and grabs Bugsy by his hair and pulls him back up. "Thanks for rescuing me…" says Bugsy, still recovering from the shock.
They are still not safe, for Kamacuras opens its massive wings and flies to the other side and tries to smash them with his scythes. Bugsy looks up at the mountain and notices some big boulders. "Heracross! Bash the wall to make the boulders fall!" Heracross charges into the mountainside hard. After some ramming, the boulders start to tumble down. The giant boulders all roll down onto Kamacuras, smashing him. To make things even better, the land beneath Kamacuras breaks off and the giant mantis falls down to the valley below, along with all the boulders. Kamacuras falls to the bottom with a thud and the boulders all fall on him, crushing the mantis.
Surge looks down at the valley. "You got some brains there, kid."
That night, they pitched a camp in a clearing. "This island doesn't look safe," says Crystal. "I wonder what giant monsters will appear again."
"Judging from that bridge, I'm sure there's civilization here," Bugsy explains to her. "But since the mantis is so big, can that mean the inhabitants here are also huge?"
The next morning, Crystal is still sleeping, when suddenly…
"Attention!!!! Everyone up and at it!" yells out Lt. Surge. This instantly woke up Crystal. "All right, get moving!" he tells everyone. "Let's go explore this cave here."
They all went into the cave and travel around for a while. "This place looks creepy," says Bugsy, and then he trips on a rock. "Ouch!"
"Watch where you're going, could you?" Surge tells him, but then he bangs into a wall himself.
"Look!" says Crystal while pointing to some paintings on a wall. Bugsy examines the paintings for a while, and then says in surprise, "Would you believe it! These painting are a billion years old!"
"You mean even before the age of dinosaurs?!" exclaims Blaine. "How can it be that old?!"
"And what's this?" asks Crystal, pointing to a picture of a colorful butterfly and a black butterfly. "Just some insect painting," Surge tells her. "But who could've paint all of these?" wonders Bugsy. "There are absolutely no humans at that time and no creature could be intelligent enough to draw these."
They soon found an exit to this cave. When they got out, they couldn't believe what they saw—a HUGE egg!
"What's that?!" exclaims Surge. "Can it be an egg?!"
Blaine touches the oblong object. "Yep, it's an egg. Could be a dinosaur egg."
"But it's too big for a dinosaur egg!" Bugsy tells him.
Then they heard a voice saying, "It is Mothra's egg."
"Who's there?" asks Surge. "Are you an enemy or friend? Show yourselves!"
Two tiny girls appear from behind some rocks. "It is us," they both say simultaneously. "What tiny humans you are!" exclaims Crystal.
"We are the Cosmos People," they tell her. "We have been living in this world since the beginning."
"My name is Lora," says the one in blue dress.
"I'm Mona," introduces the one in yellow.
The Cosmos explains to them all about Mothra. "We created Mothra as the protector of humans. We wanted to start to exert our power and did not wish to be dwarfed by the omnipotent force of nature. We wished to control and twist Earth to our needs. So we created a machine that would control the world's weather. Earth however, would not tolerate this fact…"
"Hold on a second," interrupts Blaine. "Are you saying that Earth is sort of alive?"
"Yes, the Earth is indeed alive."
"Now that's something I never knew!"
"The planet fought back against the evil, willing its life force to forge a warrior to fight," continues the Cosmos. "The spirits mimicked our Mothra, but twisted the design. Replace the light with dark, the fur with scales claws. Battra was born."
"Battra?" they all ask curiously
"Battra has awaken some days ago because humans are now causing destruction to nature. He have attacked Fuchsia City already."
"So that's the monster I heard on the radio!" says Bugsy. "It totally flattened Fuchsia City!"
"And also the King of Monsters Godzilla have started to cause destruction," says the Cosmos.
"Godzilla?" the four of them ask in curiosity. "Can it be the monster who attacked Olivine City?" asks Bugsy.
"Yes," the Cosmos tell him. "Godzilla is the result of human's nuclear bombings and testing. Godzilla used to be a dinosaur called Godzillasaurus and he did not extinct, but there was only one left in the species. Godzillasaurus once lived on a faraway uncharted island, but due to nuclear bombings, the island is destroyed and Godzillasaurus is forced into the ocean. The nuclear radiation had mutated Godzillasaurus over the years until it became the destructive Godzilla."
"I can't believe the power of nuclear weapons could create such a terrifying monster," says Blaine.
"It is us humans who have created Godzilla," says Crystal who felt quite guilty.
"Because of these, Mothra will soon awaken and save humanity," the Cosmos tell them.
Surge thought for a while, then says, "I have an idea! We will bring the egg back to Kanto and tell everyone all about this. Whenever Godzilla or Battra attacks, Mothra will be there to protect us!"
"Good idea!" agrees Blaine. "Will you let us do this?" he asks the Cosmos.
"We are glad to help humans," the Cosmos tell him. "You can take the egg back to your country as long as you promise not to hurt Mothra."
"We promise."
"But how do we get the egg back?!" asks Bugy. "It's freaking huge!"
"I have a way," Surge tells him. "Just wait and see!"
TO BE CONTINUED…
The plot is kinda taken from Godzilla vs. Mothra, but there will be more monsters besides Godzilla, Mothra, and Battra. Please review and wait!
