It was several days after that Sunday dinner that Gojira found himself in the water portion of Rhea's big garden. He had been helping Rhea with her garden for a while now, but something was getting into the water section of the garden and was eating all of the sea weed. So he had decided to investigate this problem himself, getting up very early in the morning to see if he could catch the perpetrator red handed. As the sun slowly rose above the mountains, Gojira watched with cold observing eyes.

Nothing moved for a moment, then the water rippled. The avatar moved quickly, using his jaws to snap up the offender and flung it out of the water. It landed with a wet thump on the sand, hissing heavily as it coiled and writhed on the sand awkwardly. He looked at it, watching it as the creature slowly curled up and turned its' scaly head towards him, growling deeply. Gojira frowned, not sure how to handle this new threat as he wasn't used to seeing beasts like this up close before.

The creature was long and serpentine, the scales covering the beast were light blue. The mouth was full of razor sharp teeth, all bared at Gojira. Not knowing what to do, the avatar started to back up but shrieked in pain as the monster launched itself, the jaws clamping down into his shoulder. Stumbling back, Gojira started desperately to try and claw the monster off his body, but his claws were just sliding off the scales as the serpent coiled its' powerful body around his, slowly crushing the avatar to death.

Running out of options, Gojira did the only thing he could think of. He let out a pain filled screech that used the last of his air in his body, struggling with all his might to escape from the slow death that was creeping in. Forcing his body to rise, Gojira set his jaw as he rose, getting his feet under him. Barreling headlong into the water, Gojira slammed the head of the beast into the rocky bottom of the Titan made water garden. That made the beast dazed enough to let go, the coils loosening and the jaw removing itself from his shoulder. Gojira shoved the thing away from himself, wanting to get as far away from it as possible.

The serpent hissed, regaining its surroundings before coiling up but Gojira didn't move, watching and waiting. The Draken launched itself again at the avatar, but missed as Gojira moved at the last second, sending the beast into the ground. It rose, dazed and turned back, trying a new tactic. It coiled up but didn't launch itself, only striking and pulling back. Gojira growled, having to move faster and this was tiring him out quickly, his shoulder throbbed painfully. His movements started getting sluggish and he was getting bitten more and more.

Noticing the lack of movement, the Draken whipped the avatar hard with its tail, sending Gojira into the water. With a crash of water, several moments passed, the water stilled and Gojira didn't rise out of the water. It hissed before it heard someone running over, causing the creature to dive under the water, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. It never notice Gojira slowly waking up and pulling himself to the side of the pool.

With a concentrated effort, he pulled himself out of the water, dragging his bulk with his one good hand across the sand. His eyes slowly darkened as he groaned pitifully before darkness consumed him.

That shriek did wake up a few, Rhea was the first to arrive. She didn't see anything out of the ordinary until her gaze fell upon Gojira, his shoulder a mess and twisted at a wrong angle.

"GOJI!" She cried, shocked at her younger brothers form.

Rhea rushed over to her younger siblings side, looking for any other wounds on his body other than the gaping wound that was Goji's shoulder. She wanted to get him away from here, but couldn't move the heavier bulk of her sibling. Her attention was taken from Goji by the sound of something in the water.

Rhea frowned and moved closer to the water before something slapped water into her face. Wiping the liquid away, Rhea watched as something rose out of the water, a chill going down her spine at the sight of the monster. That didn't do her any good as the Draken turned its gaze on her, the Titaness looked directly back. Her body went rigid, her mind could only see the eyes of the thing as it got closer, not noticing its' jaws dripping with venom filled saliva. Her body was easy prey to the monsters coils as it held her in place.

"N-no…" She got out before she blacked out from the lack of air.

Gojira floated in the inky blackness before his ears heard Rhea, her voice weak but full of terror. Something inside him clicked, a wave of anger and hatred erupted and coursed through his veins. Gojira had saved her, no one harmed his sister. Gojira forced his body to opened his eyes, his shoulder was on fire but he was beyond pissed. He forced his feet to lift him, teeth clenched and body aching.

The Draken was too focused on the unconscious Rhea to even notice that his first foe was even rising. It's mouth watered before a green clawed hand wrapped around the beasts upper jaw and forced it away from the Titaness. It roared and tried to escape but with its focus now on him, it let go of Rhea and attacked Gojira.

Gojira dragged the Draken away from Rhea, tightening his grip on the serpent's jaws in his one hand. Once safely away from Rhea, Gojira growled deeply as he latched onto his enemy and started pulling the Draken's mouth wide, inch by inch. Goji was clearly fighting to stay awake, his eyes were squinting as his injured shoulders arm shook. The Draken fought back, trying to close its jaws with large success but Goji stomped his foot on the Draken's writhing body and pulled even harder after regaining his grip.

"No one," He growled darkly, his eyes showing blue like fires, "Touches or eats my sister."

The Draken howled in response, but the Avatar snarled, using every ounce of his remaining strength to pull the monsters jaws apart. With a frustrated bellow, Gojira ripped the mouth open with the very audible sound of the jaw bones breaking before the flesh, muscles and tendons were torn apart as he kept pulling and made sure the beast was dead.

The other Titans arrived mere moments before the Draken was torn asunder, fixed on the sight before them. Gojira stood there, his hands covering his venom filled saliva and muddy colored blood, panting before groaning "So...tired."

Gojira collapsed heavily to the ground, exhaustion finally winning out.

Iapetus and Coeus quickly worked on Gojira as Rhea leaned against Phoebe. Kronos and Hyperion checked over the corpse of the now dead Sea Draken. The two powerful Titans could only guess what had happened, well, Hyperion had to guess.. The Titan King turned, moving towards his brothers.

"How is he?"

Iapetus grunted, "Venom is running rampant through his body, overextended his body's limits, his shoulder is a mess...you tell me if he'll live."

Coeus sighed, "Don't worry, our brother is in good hands. He won't be leaving anytime soon, you have my word on that, Kronos."

Kronos mutely nodded, watching as Iapetus applied ambrosia on the shoulder wound, the deep cuts slowly mending themselves together before Coeus mixed some mud into the wound, accentuating their regenerative properties. The Titan of Time turned away, looking at his youngest sister, who was crying into Phoebe's shoulder, unable to calm down. He was distracted by Hyperion, going over to his fiery brother.

"What is it?"

"This Sea Draken isn't from this part of the water, I asked Oceanus about it." Hyperion stated, motioning at the Titan of all Salt Water, "It's from the deeper parts of the ocean, how deep is beyond me."

"So this could be one of Pontus' beasts?" Kronos asked quietly, eyes narrowing.

"Could be," Oceanus said, stroking his bread, "but we won't know as Pontus rules all the waters everywhere, he is the Primordial of Water."

"If it is, it may be that Pontus is testing Mothers avatar...er, our brother. But, I wouldn't know as I'm not like Coeus who would know this stuff." Hyperion muttered, his eyes looking over the corpse of the Draken.

"Lets keep this under wraps as Rhea and Gojira will need all the support they can get from the family." Kronos said, ending the conversation.

Despite the quick work from Iapetus and Coeus, Gojira was still recovering from the violent skirmish, unable to even move his shoulder without pain erupting. Rhea was constantly at his side, which was hard enough to even get a word out of her. Both had been near death's door and both needed time to come to themselves.

That didn't stop Kronos from talking to Coeus about the reasons that could be behind the appearance of the Sea Draken.

"So, what could this mean, Coeus?" Kronos asked his sibling.

Coeus thought about what Kronos had given him before answering, "All of what you have given me does point to several outcomes, one which could be that Pontus is the one behind this."

"And the others?" The Titan King probed, looking at the Titan of Intelligence questioningly.

"It could be that the Sea Draken accidently found itself her due to ocean currents, lack of food or even many other possibilities."

"I find that hardly workable with this scenario, cause it seems that the creature was sent to Rhea's garden." Kronos said, frown deepening.

"If so, then Pontus may have sent this Draken to test out our sibling's abilities. However, seeing as he could of easily done it by having our brother in the water, as it is his domain." Coeus replied coolly, watching his sibling.

"So, Pontus may have something else planned?" The Titan King asked flatly.

"He may have something or maybe he doesn't," Coeus answered, "But, he hasn't done anything to show his hand as of now."
