OK- not a lot to say before this chapter. I'm pretty eager to bring this story to a close, but not before it's done and it's done well. Anyway, here's what you're here to see- more giant monster ass kicking!

CHAOS
"How much longer?" Rebecca asked.
"Not much," Anna sighed, "But what the hell's keeping those things in the bay?"
"Well, it doesn't look like they'll stay there much longer.
Godzilla and Jagereth were grappling in the bay. Godzilla grabbed Jagereth's wing and hurled it into the ground, before kicking Jagereth straight in the ribs. The demon went flying across the ground, howling at the top of its lungs.
Behind them, the evacuation ships descended into the streets.
Not much longer, Godzilla. Just a little more…
Godzilla and Jagereth slammed into each other, both pushing again one another. Godzilla was stronger, but Jagereth was agile. It flew up, forcing Godzilla underneath it. Godzilla slammed into the ground and went flying through the debris. However, as Godzilla skidded across the ground, he brought his tail up, striking Jagereth in the chest. They rose back to their feet and charged at each other again, but as they neared each other, Jagereth extended a spike from it wrist and slashed Godzilla in the chest. As Godzilla staggered, Jagereth threw him over its head with a telekinetic burst. Godzilla crashed head first into the ground behind Jagereth as the demon blasted the mutant monster with bolts of lightening from its wings.
Jagereth instantly turned away, back toward the city. However, Godzilla suddenly struck him in the back, forcing him to the ground. Jagereth looked up as Godzilla began pounding it in the face. After a few seconds, Jagereth kicked the other monster off and got to its feet.
Jagereth charged at Godzilla again, but the Monster King stood his ground and grabbed Jagereth's wings, throwing it over his head. He turned round to face Jagereth again, as the demon got to its feet.
Jagereth suddenly fired a massive spike from its wrist, but not at Godzilla…
The spike was heading straight for the evacuation ship!
"NO!" Rebecca screamed as she saw the spike shoot through the air toward the ship. The entire group's face went white as Rebecca closed her eyes, unable to watch.
"Jesus Shit!" Gordon gasped over the radio, "Godzilla…"
Rebecca opened her eyes, and what she saw utterly shocked her.
Godzilla roared in pain as the spike cut through his arm. The crew of the rescue ship looked on in amazement at the monster that stood between them and Jagereth. Godzilla pulled the spike back out, as the wound instantly started to heal.
The pilot could only utter a few stammered words… "My God…He…He took the hit…"
Miki, Godzilla grumbled mentally, you seriously owe me for this!
Jagereth roared in anger and shot toward Godzilla. The Monster King suddenly thrust the spike into Jagereth's chests. The demon fell back through the air, roaring in pain, as Godzilla shot it further back with a nuclear blast. Behind them, the ship sailed up into the air. Trying to get at the easy prey, Jagereth shot up through the air, but Godzilla grabbed its tail and pulled it to the ground.
Everyone's out, Godzilla!
Took long enough. So now…
…Go ahead. Rip that bastard apart!
Godzilla struck Jagereth with a terrifyingly powerful blow, sending it flying back into the highway. Godzilla pounded the creature again, and it fell back through the highway. The Monster King continued to pummel his opponent, back through another building, until Jagereth shot back, only to be hit in the face by a burst of atomic energy. A pair of spikes shot out randomly, knocking two buildings to the ground as Godzilla fired another blast. This time, Jagereth dodged, and the building behind it was blasted to pieces. It shot toward Godzilla, knocking him into another building and causing it to crumble to the ground.
Godzilla grabbed Jagereth and threw it with immense force, through a full seven skyscrapers. As they collapsed to the ground, Godzilla fired another blast through the debris. Jagereth shot up, avoiding the blast, only for another beam to hit it in the wing and sent it crashing through another building. Godzilla charged through a city block toward it as Jagereth braced itself. As Godzilla approached, a telekinetic force lifted him off the ground and sent him rocketing back. As he went flying, he dug his claws into a pair of buildings, stopping himself going any further back. He fired another immense blast, but with a thought Jagereth sent it flying into another building. As it looked up, however, Godzilla shot into the front of it and started punching it into the side of a building. Jagereth roared in fury as Godzilla continued to pummel it. Finally it shot up, and perched itself on the top of a skyscraper. Godzilla took a second to collect his thoughts, realising that in about a minute, they torn a path through a large part of the city. Godzilla suddenly heard a mental voice through his head…
You are…strong…
Miki suddenly heard the voice as well.
Jagereth…
You again…the psychic…yes, now I understand…a link…
This has gone on long enough, Godzilla snarled.
No…not yet…not until I finish it…
Finish what? Miki asked.
Stupid human…been told so many times, but you have to hear it again! I want to finish what I started all those thousands of years ago…finish the destruction of this planet!
And what makes you think I'll let you do that? Godzilla hissed.
Why not? You defend these…these humans…
I do not defend them!
Then why wait for them to be out of the city? Why risk defeat so that they might live? Why protect this one?
Shut up!
Stupid lizard…don't want to admit it, do you? I personally think you care more for these creatures than you care to admit! But if you do so wish to defend them, all of a sudden…then you will die in their defence!
Tough talk from a monster that's spent half this fight with my fist in his face!
Enough! I will not allow you to stop me…you won't stop my revenge…
So you started killing off every telepath you sensed. Enough of this! You want a fight to the death? You've got one!
Godzilla and Jagereth shot through the streets toward each other, as Jagereth barred its teeth in readiness to sink them into Godzilla's flesh. However, Godzilla met this charge with a blow to Jagereth's face, knocking the demon to the ground before kicking it in the head. Jagereth shot upwards, the spikes on its shoulders cutting into Godzilla's flesh. As the monster howled, Jagereth spun round, using its spikes to cut deeper through Godzilla's skin and, with a telekinetic force, suddenly lift him from the ground and slam him into a building.
Jagereth snarled and prepared to attack again, before Godzilla's tail slammed into its face and knocked it to the ground. Godzilla stood up and grabbed one of Jagereth's wings using it to slam the demon into another building, before biting into its neck. Jagereth pulled itself away, in the process losing a large chunk of flesh before Godzilla fired another blast and forced it back through a building. Pulling itself up, Jagereth began flying in a circle around the towers surrounding Godzilla.
Still sending his opponent, Godzilla fired another radioactive burst from his mouth, through one of the towers. Jagereth stopped in mid-air, as Godzilla moved the beam and forced it to fly up. He fired another blast, which hit the demon in the stomach. Jagereth crashed to the ground, into an elevated train track. It instantly collapsed as Godzilla stomped through the city toward Jagereth.
As Godzilla approached, however, Jagereth shot up, taking Godzilla by surprise and forcing him into the side of a building.
Jagereth fired a pair of spikes, straight through Godzilla's arms and into the building. As the monster roared in pain, Jagereth covered Godzilla in another faint orange glow, telekinetically holding the monster in place and forcing its head up.
Jagereth pulled back its arm and extended a spike, ready to jab it into Godzilla's neck and deliver the killing blow…
Now that, my friends, is a cliffhanger! Is this the end for Godzilla? (Nah- he's gotten out of worse spots before!) Anyway, I promised it'd deliver on this long-awaited showdown, and that's what I intend to do!
However, there's a pretty dark chapter coming up, which will reveal more about Miki's past. However, I feel it works pretty well as part of Godzilla's fight with Jagereth.
Please Review, and join me for the next chapter, where the slugfest will continue!
