Chapter 4- Canon Update

These kinds of chapters are the ones where I talk about certain scenes, characters, or actions in greater detail. Think of it like an infomercial in between your TV show. You don't have to read these kinds of chapters but I want to write these so you will understand some stuff better. Anyways hope you like the story so far!

Quick recap: so far Mothra has been crowned the next heir to the moth throne, Battra has left the moths, and the war has hit a stalemate. First let's talk about the current state of the war.

Currently both sides are tired of fighting. The Mutos can't make the final push because the Kaiju defense has been holding them back, and the Royal Kaiju Army can't push them back because the Mutos have dug themselves in. Both sides have been formulating plans to attack but neither are going to attack first. The Muto Prime has locked himself in his war room with some of his highest ranking generals to try and make a plan, but to no avail. And speaking of the Muto Prime, let's talk about him.

The Muto Prime is the same type of Muto that Godzilla fought after Godzilla 2014, but with one different feature. He has a large, white scar that runs down the right side of his face. It starts at the top of his head and ends at his chin. It slices through the eye and because of it that eye is blind. He received this scar when the Mutos were pushing through France when the war was still in its early days. It all started when the Mutos launched an offensive on the Divine Moth homeland, the French Alps. The Moths lived in the many caves and caverns of the Alps for one reason: Minerals. The large deposits of resources like iron and salt along with the large open spaces led to the Moths making this area their homeland. So when the Mutos pushed into this land, the moths held their grip. For 2 years, both sides fought like dogs over inches of land. Both sides suffered heavy losses until the Prime arrived to fight. He lead his men in the cover of darkness to take over the area. The moths were caught off guard and because of it they lost large swathes of land in hours. The final attack was on the Royal Temple that lies in the center of the Alps. This temple has stood for countless millennia and is rumored to be the birthplace of the First Queen. The Muto Prime, along with a hundred Mutos of varying sex, pushed into the building. It was chaos. Death was everywhere. The mutilated bodies of moths and grubs were all over, and Vothra was there to witness it. This was when she first became queen. She was younger then and could fight savagely. She was able to take on three male Mutos with ease. Vothra and the Prime saw each other and began to fight. She came in with swooping attacks and he swatted at her but neither one could land a hit. But soon he grabbed her with his front legs and pulled her down. He looks down at her and is about to crush her face into the floor when she slices upward with her middle legs. She cuts deep into his face. Blood splatters the floor as he roars in pain. He stumbles back and she gets up and flies off. He roars at her as she flies away. In the end the temple fell, and the moths fled the Alps, but at the cost of much of the Prime's best men and one of his eyes. Along with his dignity. Ever since then the two have been bitter rivals and the Prime vows to kill her and then slaughter her people. It won't be long before the two meet again.

Another character that I haven't mentioned much since her addition is Maregon. She is a female Goji and the females resemble the males in many ways but there are some notable differences. For one the females are slimmer and move faster. They also have a more sea foam color atomic breath beam. They have a slim body with wider hips. They have a light gray color and often have green eyes. Their dorsal plates are smaller and are black in color.

The male Divine Moth does not look like Battra, he suffers from a genetic anomaly that causes excess bone growth around his body. But the color is the same in males. Males moths are black or dark grey in color and have red or yellow wings/markings. But since the virus has significantly reduced the amount of males in the Kaiju world, male moths are very rare.

The virus that has spread all over the Kaiju world is a very specific strain of virus that targets the chromosomes of egg cells and sperm. It detects a chromosome that is male and destroys that cell. This causes a large amount of newborn kaiju to be female. This virus began it's rampage shortly after the Mutos pushed into Europe. It first targeted the moths, then the rodo's, (Rodan's species). And then the Anguiri, (Anguirus's species). It went throughout the entire kaiju populations until it reached the Goji's. There it did the most damage. After the birth rates of males plummeted the Royal Kaiju Army had to enlist females to fight. Even now, Dagon and Goji are one of only 5 males in a population of 20,000. This is incredibly small and Godzilla will be the last male of his species. Surprisingly, this virus doesn't target the Mutos. This is because the genetic code of the Muto is very unstable and changes many times when the Muto is an egg and a chrysalis. But it has caused a large drop in the number of Primes. This virus doesn't go away either and there is no cure.

I know that some of you are thinking when does Mothzilla come into play. Well at this point Godzilla doesn't really feel anything for anyone. He just now knows that Mothra exists. She knows that Godzilla exists since he is the first male Goji in over 3,000 years. Inter species relationships are taboo in this world. Mainly because they are unable to reproduce and is just weird in the eyes of other Kaiju. But this is a Mothzilla story! I am just easing my way into it. I'm not rushing this since I know it will come out better this way. But it is around the corner so be patient.

Kaiju reproduction: Okay this is something that I just want to write now instead of later. Each Kaiju has the genitalia that goes with their sex. How they reproduce varies. For example, the Goji's reproduce a lot like humans do. But they lay eggs instead of live birth. The moths do the same but minus the male. But the moths can reproduce with a male, but at this point it's easier to do so without one. Godzilla knows that reproduction with him is going to be the only way his species survives so when he reaches maturity age (24) he is going to mate with a large amount of females to maximize the chance that a male will be born. Mothra knows that she will split herself at some point but knows that it will cost her her life.

Lastly I want to mention that one of the mini climaxes to this story is coming up soon. The asteroid is beginning to head towards Earth, Battra has left the moths to join the Mutos, and Mothra is now the next queen in line. This story is going to go from 0 to 100 in the next chapter and then things begin to get spicy. I am not sure when chapter 5 is going to come out, but all I can say is soon. Hope you guys will enjoy these little canon update chapters but if not I don't have to do them anymore. Please like, review, and share my story so others can read it. See y'all in a bit!
