And here comes another chapter. I Promise: Something will actually happen in this chapter.
Disclaimer: Don't own Godzilla. But I do own Jagereth.
STRUGGLE
Miki and Rebecca walked up to the ruined building. There were a few other teenagers and young kids in there as well. Miki led her to a makeshift room, with walls fashioned from curtains and cloth.
"So…you live here?" Rebecca asked awkwardly.
Miki just nodded and led her inside.
"'Fraid so."
Rebecca really couldn't think of anything to say.
"It's not all that bad," Miki sighed, "At least…well, Akira and I did what we could. He had a job, you know…I got an after-school job. We managed to get into school, at least."
"So…"
Miki instantly sensed it, and it wasn't exactly unexpected anyway.
"How did we wind up homeless?" She said for her. Rebecca nodded.
"That's…" That was something Miki rarely thought about…something she couldn't bare to think about. The cause for her being on the streets still haunted her dreams. "It's a long story. Of course, we didn't always live like this…we did have a real place to stay."
"What happened?"
"Same thing that happened to a lot of others. We got the boot. There are more kids than you want to know living on the street. Basically, if there's an abandoned building or anything like that…you can pretty much be sure someone's squatting in there."
Rebecca was silent for a while until Miki spoke again.
"Rebecca, I need to ask you something…"
"Sure."
"Just…just forget what you saw, OK?"
"Look, Miki…what about…I don't know…social services or something? Can't they…"
"No. They just…look; this isn't exactly a good part of town, anyway. How do you think Akira wound up dying from a…"
"I'm sorry…"
"Don't be. Just…don't tell anyone, OK?"
Rebecca didn't have much choice.
"OK."
"Promise?"
"I promise."
Osaka Bay
The forces were in position. Tanks, missile launchers, destroyers, and even jets moved toward the harbour.
The water began to froth and foam out into the bay. A living mountain seemed to be rising out of the water as a massive roar split the sky.
Tokyo
Miki sat down on the steps. It was now 9:00 PM. Rebecca had left a few hours ago.
Suddenly, she sensed something…something she'd rarely sensed. And something she'd never sensed so strongly. It was him…definitely.
It was Godzilla.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"FIRE!"
A sudden hail of missiles shot out to meet Godzilla, as the Destroyers moved around and cut him off, still firing. The jets shot over Godzilla's head, releasing showers of bombs. The monster roared in anger, but it could still sense its target…
Godzilla's back plates sudden began to glow a bright blue. A massive beam of blinding energy shot out of his mouth, sweeping through the tanks in front of him. The ignited, starting a chain reaction that, in seconds, turned to harbour into a sea of fire.
Godzilla lashed his tail out behind him, crushing the Destroyers with the massive force. He bellowed in rage and shot another blast up toward the jets, sweeping it around and causing the sky to become filled with explosions.
Sudden beams of yellow energy struck him in the chest, causing him to stagger back. He roared in anger and blasted the Maser tanks to pieces.
Miki could sense what was happening…she sensed the destruction. And somehow…she felt the creature's rage. So close to the rage she felt that night…
In her mind's eye, she saw the bodies piling up, saw the sea of flames.
No…
She wouldn't let that happen again!
Godzilla swatted away at the tanks, blasting nuclear flame and ripping the jets apart in his claws.
NO!Godzilla's eye opened wide in shock. He immediately knew what this was.
You…the one I sensed!STOP THIS!
With all her strength and fury, she pushed against the creature's mind, sensing its surprise. Godzilla had seen telepaths before, but never this powerful…
How…how could a mere human be so powerful…
GET AWAY!
She pushed even harder against this mind. She saw a mental image of the creature falling away from her. Everything around her faded to blackness.
Fool! You have no idea who you're dealing with…let me give you a hint!
She felt the force of the monsters mind against her. It was more powerful than anything she'd ever seen. She was physically sent flying across the room.
STOP!Such fury…I have never seen this in a human…
She pushed against its mind again. But the power…she had to face it. It was just too much…
Again, that image flashed before her eyes.
NO!Enough! You may be powerful…but what good is power if you barely know how to use it?
Both minds pushed with unbelievable fury. Physically, they both staggered and fell. Godzilla immediately turned and lumbered out to the ocean.
Miki forced herself right into the demon- further than she'd ever gone into any other mind. Right into the deepest recesses of Godzilla's psyche…
Finally, Miki collapsed to the ground, and everything went black. She saw bizarre images- terrible creatures, the ocean…then she realised- it wasn't her seeing this. She was still in Godzilla's mind…trapped there…
And finally, she was unconscious…
Well, that was more than a little bizarre! Hope you enjoyed my rendition of a monster-human mind-meld. Please R&R!
