Well, here comes yet another chapter! I know I've left the link stuff hanging, but I'll get back to that soon. I figured it'd be a cool way to celebrate reaching double digits. What I will do, however, is bring in Osaki, Miyuki and Gordon after a four-chapter absence. This chapter is my way of celebrating my new ownership of BFI's Godzilla (1954) DVD!
Disclaimer: Don't own Godzilla, but I own Jagereth.
RECOVERY
HokkaidoIt was 2:00 AM on Monday Morning. It had now been three days since the fight with Godzilla. Osaki turned over bed, with Miyuki sleeping softly next to him. He was exhausted, but he couldn't sleep- he kept remembering what happened on the ocean…having Godzilla inside his mind. And what was that stuff about "the one I sensed?"
However, three days with barely a wink of sleep had thoroughly exhausted him. Just as he finally drifted off to sleep, the phone rang next to him. Osaki immediately picked it up.
"Hello?"
"Get dressed, kid," came Gordon's voice, "We've got problems!"
G-Force HQ
Osaki and Miyuki ran into the control room, where Gordon was waiting for them.
"What is it?" Osaki asked as he caught his breath. Katagiri turned round to answer him.
"Something just tore right through the middle of Tokyo," he answered, "Tore apart an entire Air Force squadron in less than a minute and just took off a few minutes ago."
The large radar screen was indeed showing a large object, moving rapidly away from Japan.
"So what is it? Rodan?"
"That's what we thought at first. But no- he's out in the Atlantic."
"What about Mothra?"
"Already checked. She's still on Infant Island. This is a new one. We need something ready to deal with it."
"Well, the Griffon still isn't working, and the Super-X is in pieces. It's going to have to be the Gotengo. Is it repaired yet?"
"Ready and waiting," came a voice from behind him. Gordon walked up to the three of them. "She's in the hangar and ready for take-off."
"Well, right now it's flying over the Pacific. We'll deal with it if it heads near Japan again."
"Any sign of Godzilla?" Gordon asked.
"Nothing new," Katagiri answered, "He's still in that trench."
"So what do we do about this new one?" Osaki asked, "You said it took down the Air Force in a minute. How the hell do we deal with it?"
"We'll need everything the Gotengo has. And we'll try to get the Griffon up and running as well."
"What about the Juggernaut?" Miyuki asked, "Could we use that?"
"It's just designed for use against Godzilla and Anguirus. We're not sure how it'd fare against a flying Kaiju."
"Well, we need something," Gordon said.
"And before that," Katagiri answered him, "We need to finish evacuating the affected area. There's still a lot of rescue work to be done."
"Rebecca?"
Rebecca's eyes drifted open and she saw her mother smiling in relief.
"Mom?"
"Oh, thank God!" Her mother sighed.
Rebecca looked around the small room, realising she was on a bed.
"Where…"
"Relax, sweetie. You're in hospital."
"Hospital?"
"That Kaiju attacked our apartment building. You were on the stairs and they just caved in. The doctor said you got lucky. If you'd been any higher up those stairs…" She looked away, unable to say it.
"Relax Mom, I'm fine! Just a little shook up…"
"Well, the doctor said you didn't have any serious injuries," her father smiled, "But your mother still insisted on calling the hospital."
Rebecca smiled slightly. "But…what was that thing?"
Pacific Ocean
The huge, flying creature changed direction in mid-air, heading back toward Japan…
G-Force HQ
"It's changed direction!" Katagiri shouted, "Heading back toward Tokyo!"
"Already?" Osaki gasped, "Can we take it on?"
"Gotengo's ready," Gordon answered. "Look like we're going to need Juggernaut, though. Is the Griffon ready?"
"Not yet. We'll have to do without it. Osaki, Gordon, you're on the Gotengo."
"This doesn't make any sense," Osaki sighed."
"What?" Miyuki asked.
"First this thing attacks Tokyo, then it suddenly leaves…now, for no apparent reason, it turns round and starts heading back. Almost like it's…looking for something."
Hangar
The massive super-ship moved up on the supports as the tunnel in front of it cleared, huge steel doors opening at the end.
"All clear!" Katagiri called.
"Ignition!"
The huge engines on the back of the Gotengo shot to life. In a huge flash of speed, the Gotengo shot down the tunnel, straight out the end.
"Gotengo, your orders are to engage the target before it reaches Japan. Unit 2, get the Juggernaut to Tokyo Bay before that thing shows up."
And thus, another battle is about to begin! But can the Gotengo and its crew stop the terrible Jagereth?
Next chapter: I'll finally be getting back to the situation with Miki. Please review, though I know there's not a lot happening in this chapter.
