Chapter 6: Guard Dog

King Ghidorah grumbled to himself as he stomped towards his home. He was still fuming about his failed infiltration of the Clone Club. And the fact he'd been given the boot by his own counterpart Keizer Ghidorah was another heap of irritation.

"Stupid freakin' clones." Ichi grumbled. "The nerve of those tin cans lecturing me about 'quality over quantity' nonsense. Bah! I've got the word 'king' in my name! I'm allowed to have more counterparts than anyone else!"

"Well considering all the times Big G's kicked our tails, I'd say he's earned the right to have the most clones of him." Ni stated. "Plus, don't get so down, Nii! We're just as iconic as him! Alongside Mothra and Mechagodzilla, we're one of the most iconic kaiju!"

"C'mon Ichi!" Kevin beamed! "That's gotta count for something!"

"I'm still not happy." Ichi growled. And the instant he passed by Godzilla's house, he had an idea. An evil smile on his face as he pictured it in his head. "But I see an opportunity for some payback!"

"Please don't let it be another prank war!" Kevin begged! "It was really hard getting Mothra's silk out of our ears!"

"Nothing that massive, Kevin. Don't worry." Ichi chuckled wickedly. "I'm just going to vandalize the King of the Monster's castle! To the store! We have supplies to purchase!"

One trip to the store later, and Ghidorah was armed with spray paint, toilet paper, and a carton of eggs. A standard issue pranksters' arsenal.

"Godzilla's gone to work trashing model cities, Gojirin is gardening with Biollante, and Godzilla's brat is at school. Perfect!" Ichi sneered at Godzilla's house as he spread out their wings! "No one can stop me!"

Oh how wrong he was. For in Godzilla's backyard, there was a small dog house. And the occupant of that dog house had been Godzilla's most steadfast companion for many years. His best friend, in fact. And upon catching Ghidorah scent and the malicious intent carried with it, the dog house's sleeping occupant awakened!

'An intruder has come to desecrate my king's home.' The occupant thought as he got into a combative stance! 'Let them come. They'll soon see the might of this home's guardian!'

The instant King Ghidorah landed, he heard growling directed at him! Turning to face it, he saw it was coming from the dog house! As the source of the growling stepped out into the light, it was revealed to be Anguirus!

"Hey, isn't this the guy who's best buds with Godzilla?" Nii asked.

"Hi Anguirus!" Kevin chirped. "Sorry I don't have any bones on me!"

"So Godzilla keeps his best friend in a dog house?" Ichi mocked the quadruped kaiju! "It makes sense since he goes about all fours like a dog!"

"Ghidorah. I thought I smelled somebody rotten." Anguirus snorted. "You've come to vandalize the house. I won't allow you to do that."

"Hah!" Ichi smirked. "And what're you gonna-"

Anguirus dashed around King Ghidorah, and bit down on one of the three-headed monster's tails!

"AAAAAAUUUUGGGH! GET HIM OFF OUR TAIL! GET HIM OFF OUR TAIL!" Ichi screamed as he flailed his head about and flapped the body's wings frantically!

"Ichi! Stop flailing and I'll have a clear shot!" Ni snapped! "Because at this rate you'll hit us with our own tai-GAH!"

True to Ni's warning, Ichi was so panicked that he was accidentally hitting Ni in the face with the tail Anguirus hadn't bitten! That's not to say the tail didn't bop Anguirus on the head a few times, but the dinosaur-based kaiju was undeterred from driving out the intruder!

"Um, guys?" Kevin asked nervously. "Can't we just fly out of here?"

The other Ghidorah heads mentally slapped themselves as they took to the air. Using one of his tails, Ghidorah tickled the underbelly of Anguirus causing him to fall to the ground! One they were safely on the street outside of Godzilla's house, Ni and Kevin readied the eggs and toilet paper.

"Should've just done this earlier." Ichi muttered as Ni and Kevin hurled the eggs and let the toilet paper fly. But the barrage was halted when something whacked the projectiles off course! All three Ghidorah heads were stunned to see Anguirus glaring at them with a frying pan in his mouth and another one gripped by his tail! ". . . HOW?!"

Anuirus got up on his hind legs and made a "come and get it gesture" with one of his forepaws. All three of Ghidorah's heads had different expressions in response to this. Ichi was in disbelief, Ni was stunned, and Kevin just thought Anguirus looked cool. Wasting no time, Anguirus charged right at Ichi and whacked him with the frying pan! The middle Ghidorah head was so stunned he saw flying saucers orbiting his head!

"Serves you right, Ichi." Ni sighed. "C'mon Kevin. Let's get him home."

"Okay!" Kevin beamed. "Bye Anguirus!"

"Goodbye you two." Anguirus nodded as he waddled his way back inside and made his way to the dog house he dwelled in. Pulling a blanket over himself, the dinosaur kaiju once again fell into slumber. One that ended a few hours later when he heard the house's occupant's return.

His tail wagging excitedly, Anguirus scampered into the house and promptly licked each of the Godzilla's family's faces!

"Anything interesting today, Anguirus?" Godzilla asked.

"Nope." Anguirus shook his head. "Just had a pest to drive off."
