Pan Pacific Defense Corps New York Museum, New York City, New York, United States - November 11, 2033
"When I was a kid, whenever I feel small or lonely I'd look up at the stars. Wondered if there was life out there. Turns out I was looking in the wrong direction. When alien life entered our world it was from deep beneath the Pacific Ocean." a video interview of PPDC Ranger Raleigh Becket said on the new exhibit. Greg Young has heard it a dozen times before, but he loved to hear it. "A fissure between two tectonic plates. A portal between dimensions. The Breach. I was fifteen when the first Kaiju made land in San Fransico. By the time tanks, jets, and missiles took it down, six days, thirty five miles later, three cities were destroyed. Tens of thousands of lives were lost. We mourned the dead, memorized the attack, and moved one." it continued as Greg studied a replica of the San Fransico's attack. "And then only six months later the second attack hit Manila. And then the fourth hit Cabo. Then the fourth. And then we learned this was not going to stop. This was the beginning. We needed a new weapon. The world came together, pooling its resources and throwing aside old rivalries for the sake of the greater good. To fight monsters we created monsters of our own. The Jaeger program was born." Becket added as Greg walked down a hall of human size replicas of the Jaegers. "There were setbacks of course. The neural load to interface with a jaeger proved too much for a single pilot. A two pilot system was implemented. Left Hemisphere, Right Hemisphere pilot control. We started winning. Jaegers stopped Kaijus everywhere. But the Jaegers were only as good as their pilots. So Jaeger pilots became rock stars. Danger turned to propaganda. Kaijus into toys. We got really good at it. Winning. Then it all changed." it finished as Greg reached the new exhibit. A towering replica of the battle between the PPDC and Monarch against King Ghidorah and the Titan Godzilla.
USS Titan, Pacific Ocean - February 2, 1954
"Contact thirty three miles to Portbow." Petty Officer Third Class Blake Richmond reporter to Captain Andrew Mills. Their mission was simple. Test the top secret sub, but Andrew never expected to find a contact at this depth. I went over to Richmond's sonar station and saw the target. It was massive, confusing the captain more. "Sir you should hear this." the young man remarked as he took over the headset. Before Mills even grabbed the headset he could hear a roar on the headset. Then the contact moved towards them at rapid speeds.
"Turn Starboard eighty degrees!" Mills ordered and the bridge went into a frenzy. He felt the vibrations of the sub move rapidly to avoid a collision. For several minutes Mills listened as Richmond reported the contact speed. An impressive speed even for the fastest naval ship.
"We're out of its path." Richmond reported and Mills gave a sigh of relief. Then as the contact passed, the sub rocked and alarms blared.
"We're taking on water!" the interior comms yelled and Mills knew that they need to escape.
"Emergency blow!" Mills ordered and after several moments, the submarine rose to the surface in minutes. Once on the surface, Mills knew the USS Ticonderoga would be sending rescue craft to aid his crew. But what worried him was what hit his sub.
Bikini Atoll - March 1, 1954
Colonel Percy Wallace watched the monster from a B-29 Superfortress flying above it. The mission was simple. Drop the Atomic Bomb to kill the giant monster. The creature has sunk three US submarines in the month and two Soviet Submarines. Wallace knew that this giant was a wild dangerous animal without care for who it hurt. But when the President wanted a plan, the new Monarch Director suggested to Nuke it. When he was directly over the monster, he dropped the bomb and sped the bomber out of the Killzone. All he can do now is hope.
Bikini Atoll - March 3, 1954
Ensign Clifton Becket flew the F4U Corsair over the bomb area with his squadron to see if the target was destroyed. Becket looked down to see an island of spikes and his heart sank as it moved. The Squadron Commander reported what was going on and new orders were given.
etreat. That is all they could do. Nothing should have restand an Atomic Bomb. Becket knew that their Corsairs would have been nothing but nats to the giant. Humanity was in a losing war.
Langley Air Force Base, Hampton, Virginia, United States - March 9, 1954
"The Titan has disappeared from radar, sonar, everything." Colonel Wallace reported to General Douglas MacArthur. "We're doing everything we can to find it, but we believe that the bombs forced it to flee."
"Will it come back?" the General asked coldly and Wallace had no answer. There is nothing on any report on this anything like this. "Well, until we have a handle on this, Monarch will continue to search and protect the American people from this Titan.
Monarch West Pacific Office, San Fransico, California, United States - August 10, 2013
Ethan Blake was putting his office back together after a 7.1 earthquake. The TV was showing reporters being reporters. It wasn't his first quake but his partner, Sara Green was shaken. He smirked as she dropped a filing cabinet on the ground. He was from LA, she was from New York. When the phone rang, Ethan answered it to hear the cold voice of Captain Franklin Pierce. "There are reports of something moving under the Golden Gate. Is it a Titan?"
"Wait hold on. We were trying to clean up after the quake." Ethan replied as he logged into the West Coast Alert Net. Monarch's budget was small but they still had some good tech. When he checked the system, Ethan's heart sank. A massive monster was in the Bay. "Unknown Titan in San Fransico Bay. Requesting Emergency Protocol Beta."
"Granted." the Captain replied before the call ended.
"We need to go." Ethan remarked and Sara nodded. As she raced outside, Ethan grabbed the keys and raced to the jeep. He ignited the engine and turned both lights and sirens on. He sped past the streets while the Protocol was being organized. Monarch will take immediate control of the Navy and Air Force in the area of Protocol authorization. Which means Pierce will be the highest rank officer in this situation. When the two arrived at the bridge, a Police Cruiser was waiting on the side of the road. As Ethan and Sara got out the two officers approached them.
"Who are you?" an Officer Bradley asked and Ethan showed him his credentials.
"Agent Ethan Blake. Monarch. I need this bridge to be shut down now." Ethan ordered and the two officers looked skeptical. Monarch was still a secret and Ethan knew that it would prove to be their undoing.
"I don't know who you are, but it is a felony to pretend to be Feds." the officer replied, but it was too late. A giant oddly shaped monster with an axe like fin burst out of the bay. The four of them watched as it gripped the bridge. Missiles from F-15 Eagles struck the monster to no avail. The Titan brought the bridge down killing dozens to hundreds. It walked towards San Fransico and Ethan knew that there wasn't enough time to evacuate the city. Thousands were about to die.
Pentagon, Washington DC, United States - August 23, 2013
"Kaiju. What a joke." Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel remarked as he turned the TV off. The SecDef turned to Doctor Ishirō Serizawa who had a look of concern. "Now what is the bad news?"
"The monster that attacked the West Coast isn't a normal Titan, but something worst." Serizawa replied and Hagel knew this wasn't going to be good. "The Titans are biologically designed for this world and even then many are them are just like wild animals. They stay away from humans. The Kaiju that attacked the Coast shows signs of genetic anomalies and directly attacked a major city. Not to mention that when the Earthquake hit, a massive energy wave appeared. I don't think the Kaiju is from our world."
"Are you telling me, that the monster that attacked California is an alien lifeform?" Hagel asked with a sharp concerned voice.
"Possibly and if it is, then San Fransico is just the beginning of something larger than all of us." Serizawa answered and the SecDef need to brief the President and then the world.
Pacific Ocean - February 29, 2020
PPDC Ranger Raleigh Becket felt the pain of his brother's brutal death. Now he was trying to operate a Gipsy Danger solo. He raised the Jaegar's right fist into the charging Kaiju's head. He heard Marshal Stacker Pentecost, but the Ranger just ignored his words. Becket fired the Plasmacannon and Knifehead dove below the waves. Becket took slow breaths as he took in the situation. When the Kaiju burst from the waves, its horned head struck Gipsy Danger's chest. Becket fired the Plasma cannon at the creature but it ripped apart the chest. Becket struggled to keep the legs and torso together. Before Knifehead could strike again, he saw something burst from the waves. A Kaiju unlike anything Becket has seen towered over him. Knifehead charged and the new Kaiju grabbed the sharp horn and threw it several hundred yards away. Becket charged the Plasma cannon and fired several blasts agitating the Kaiju. In response the monster wiped its tail at the Jaegar. Becket was forced into the water and he quickly got back to the surface before he could drown. He watched a it's spike back glowed blue and a loud hum echoed. The Kaiju fired a blast of some kind of energy at Knifehead slicing it apart. Becket watched as the giant Kaiju just disappeared beneath the waves ignoring him.
"Gipsy Danger to Anchorage Shatterdome. Knifehead KIA. Second Kaiju escaped." Becket reported, but no one responded. Becket put all of his energy to operate the Jaegar alone and head for the shore.
Anchorage Shatterdome, Anchorage, Alaska, United States - February 29, 2020
"What the hell was that?" Pentecost asked Captain Amy Walker of Monarch. The Marshal didn't like Monarch. They were secretive and in certain situations, they could take control of his command. Today was such a time. When the second Kaiju appeared but there wasn't a second breach, Monarch took over. The orders. Retreat. Pentecost has seen the damage one Kaiju could do. So a second one couldn't get to civilization. Not to mention the second Kaiju was double the size of Gipsy Danger. They were lucky the Kaiju retreated into the sea. Now they couldn't locate it which was a problem.
"Titanus Gojira isn't you average Kaiju Marshal. Our weapons are ineffective against him. But Monarch will do everything in our power to aid you in search for your missing Jaegar pilots." Walker promised before leaving the infuriated Marshal.
Honolulu, Hawaii, United States - July 7, 2022
"This is Tanker Cobra to Honolulu Shatterdome, Butcher Horizon is down!" PPDC Ranger Makani Kaeo reported to base after the unidentified Kaiju crushed the Jaeger. This shouldn't have happened. There were no breaches, but when an EMP hit the city, two Jaegers were sent to investigate. Now they were facing a Kaiju on land. Not the ocean.
As the two pilots of Tanker Cobra armed the shoulder missiles, alarms went off.
"What is that?" Makani's wife, PPDC Ranger Kini Kaeo asked.
"Get out of there. Now!" someone yelled on the radio and they turned to Jaeger to see a massive giant rise from the ocean. The city faced a flash flood killing who knows how many. Both Kaeo's mouths dropped at the new Kaiju. It had to be a Class V. Before they could do anything else, the first Kaiju latched itself on their backs. They felt pain as the Kaiju's claws tore open the Jaeger. The second Kaiju rushed towards them and the pilots raised their left hand and fired the Plasma Cannon at the giant, but it didn't stop. Instead, it reached down and grabbed the first Kaiju. The Jaeger took more damage as the right arm was down. Makani watched as the second Kaiju pushed the first one to the ground. The smaller Kaiju opened its wings and tried to fly off only for missiles to hit it from behind. The Tanker Cobra pilots looked to see Dark Duke firing its weapons. This gave the second Kaiju time to grab the first one. The large monster forced open the mouth of the struggling Kaiju and its spike back glowed blue. Seconds later a beam of blue energy fired down into the smaller Kaiju's mouth. The Jaeger pilots were amazed at what was happening. A kaiju was killing another Kaiju. When the body of the second one dropped limp without its head, Tanker Cobra and Dark Duke prepared for a fight. But the Kaiju just turned around avoiding the fight. It fled to the sea.
Juneau, Alaska, United States - July 8, 2022
The attack in Honolulu shocked the world. The Kaiju that attacked the city weren't Kaijus, but another species call Titans. Now an Agency called Monarch was taking over several Jaegers to help contain these Titans. Raleigh Becket just didn't care anymore. His mind was still healing from Knifehead. He did the impossible and was nearly killed in the process. If it weren't for the Titan nicknamed Godzilla, Beckett would have reached the shore faster. But his anger towards the Kaiju and these Titans still showed. The world was falling apart and now the world was abandoning the Coastal Wall because of the Titans being everywhere. What the future lies for Becket, he doesn't know. But it will be an interesting one.
White House, Washington DC, United States - April 16, 2023
"It is estimated that eight thousand were killed in the Titanus Behemoth attack." Doctor Ishirō Serizawa reported to the Conference Room filled with politicians, generals, admirals, and the President of the United States himself. "We believe he is on his way to the Pacific like the other Titans awakening."
"Why are they all waking up after centuries of silence?" Army General Ian Richards asked and Serizawa went on with his presentation.
"Monarch theorize that the Breaches where the Kaiju is escaping from is sending out a pulse to the Titans and since the Titans are believed to have started out in the Permian Period, I assume the Kaiju once entered our world before only to find the Titans to challenge them. The Kaijus waited for the Titans to go extinct or so they believed, which is what caused this disaster." the Japanese American replied and the room murmured on the terrible situation at hand. Hundreds of thousands were killed with the Titans waking up and the Jaegers have proven to be failures in stopping them. Monarch received five Jaegers and before the end of one year, five Jaegers were lost. With humanity fighting both Kaiju and Titans, Serizawa knew their best hope is for Godzilla to save them.
Thank you for reading this chapter and as always I hoped you have had a good day. Now onto the important announcements. First is that this story was requested by Niccunningham who I have had the honor to work with on my Assassin's Creed story. So thank him for this story. Second is that Russia is still being an aggressive invader in the free independent country of Ukraine. So as always I hope those who are fighting and bleeding in Ukraine keep on fighting and make the Russians suffer ten fold. Their will is stronger than anything humanity has seen and it is getting stronger, while their enemy is breaking apart. Have a good day and glory to Ukraine.
