Now, on with the novel!)


Chapter 31

Things were heating up in the ocean near the Sennen coast, and if one were to look underwater… they would be treated to an event that they would probably not believe yet remember it for the rest of their lives. Titanosaurus was getting frustrated as he tried in vain to grab and/or crush the merpeople that swam before him. The half-human sea creatures would skillfully and swiftly evade his red clawed hands, and more so when he tried to grab them with his crocodile-like snout and teeth. His comrade Ebriah was not faring so well either, for the merfolk were very cunning and smart in evading his claws whenever he tried to reach out and grab them. The mammoth lobster tried to flatten them with his bulk, but the half-human beings were just so quick and precise in evading his body whenever he tried to either stomp on them, squash them with a body slam, or use his tail as a swatter somewhat. King Triton had been doing his best to confuse, confound, and distract the enemy from the dwelling of their land mistress of evil, Maleficent. The ruler of Atlantica made sure to send his aquatic soldiers and volunteers where they needed be, and also made sure that his daughters were with some good escorts.

"Okay… they are thoroughly confused and frustrated. Now we have to turn their attention on one another permanently. But, I should not get lax at this point. Even though their tempers are flaring greatly, their intelligence is still showing." Triton said to himself as he dodged yet another claw swipe from Titanosaurus. Indeed, the monsters were roaring and shrieking in aggravation from not being able to catch their targets, but they were gradually being clever in how to catch them. The amphibious dinosaur tried to catch some mermen knights with both his claws, like how one would snatch an insect or frog. Ebriah tried to stun Triton's daughters Adella and Aquata by slamming his claws together to create a powerful shockwave that stunned the two beautiful mermaids good. One would say that it looked similar to the way shrimp mantis's killed their prey, but not enough in Ebriah's case. Fortunately, Flounder and Sonia were far enough that the shockwave did not affect them much but close enough to help. The two swam hard and true, and made it in time to grab the mermaids before the lobster could.

King Triton looked to the baleen whales and exclaimed, "All right! Your time has come! Move in as quick as you can to strike as hard as you all can, and we'll do what we can to distract them long enough so you can swim from their reach!". The old but strong plus crafty merman king knew that while the whales were tough and strong, they would not last much in a straight-on fight against the titans from another universe. So his plan was to allow the baleen behemoths to get in a good body shot with their massive bulks, then for him and others to distract the enemy while the whales retreated to a safe distance before planning for another blow. The brave mammals of the sea made a loud call before swimming towards the fight! Triton breathed in and out a little to catch his breath, as he had been swimming hard and strong for some time.

"This old merman is getting on his years… but, I can't let that stop me! If I go down… at least I will go down defending my family and home!" he said to himself before swimming out to join his friends and comrades!

Titanosaurus had his reptilian yellow eyes focused on one of the half-human, half-fish creatures which turned out to be Attina. The sixth-born mermaid was zigging and zagging among her friends and allies, and everywhere else in order to try and lose the dinosaur's eyes. She thought, 'Come on, come on! Focus on someone else other then me, you old fossil!'. Unfortunately for her, Titanosaurus had a lock on with his eyes and continued to follow her, trying to catch her! His prehistoric brain told him that this prey was special, that it would be worth to catch… and perhaps eat. He ignored the sea life that was attacking his lower area of the body, and also the braver ones that tried for his upper body area like the chest and neck. The red-skinned amphibious dinosaur swatted away some annoyances that became too much for him to endure, like the dolphins and orcas. The monster was almost upon the mature beauty, Attina letting out a scream as a claw descended on her fast! Fortunately for her, help came at the last minute, at the nick of time!

One of the baleen whales swam as fast as it could, and dealt a critical body blow with his bulk to Titanosaurus's head on its right side! The amphibious brute let out a small screech of pain and anger as he was slammed hard from one of the aquatic animals that breathed air, stumbling a bit from the hit. Attina looked up and was very grateful towards the baleen whale who let out a loud trumpeting sound of sort. The mermaid went to thank her hero, giving the large mammal a huge on its left side. The whale nodded and stated, "You better head on out of here, Princess! I think I only managed to catch this beast of guard, and he sounds pretty angry now!". Indeed, when Titanosaurus recovered from the surprise blow, he gazed at the massive sea mammal with angry yellow eyes! He screeched and was about to attack when another blow came from the other side! It seems the baleen whale that saved Attina was a male, and his female life partner just saved them.

The feisty female whale stated, "Go now, while the going is good!". Attina thanked the two before swimming off, and now Titanosaurus was REALLY mad! The dinosaur screeched in anger, and the sea creatures winced from the terrible sound. The titan charged at the baleen couple, but stopped when he felt something nipping hard at his fin ears and two antennae feelers. The orcas and dolphins were biting and using their echolocation sonar sounds on the fin ears on each side of his head, while the sharks were chomping on the thin antennae feelers! While it did superficial damage at the least, it was enough to irritate the senses to the great red dinosaur. Titanosaurus thrashed around to get the sea animals off of his head area, similar on how a dog would thrash around to get the fleas & ticks off of their own heads. The natural alpha predators of the sea kept at it until they saw the baleen whales swimming away, then left when Titanosaurus swiped at them with his claws.

Ebriah was having his own difficulties with some of the baleen whales when they came into play. The massive lobster had managed to get one of the mermaids in his left claw, and it turned out to be Sonia! The elderly, but feisty lady wiggled and thrashed as hard as she could to try and get free. Alas, it would seem that when the lobster held something in his claws, it pinched down tight. Ebriah was about to devour the half-human when he felt a huge weight crash on down his tail! The titanic lobster shrieked in pain and released Sonia, the mermaid wiggling her tail to get the blood flowing again through it before swimming off fast. The red crustacean turned to see that two baleen whales were pressing down hard on the flimsy end of the his tail, and one was trying to crush the harder part of it. Ebriah used his massive strength to shake them loose, but it was not easy. The large sea mammals were shaken off, and started to swim away, and they would have been caught by Ebriah had it not been for Flounder. He led some of his fishy friends to do some serious frenzied attack of sort on the lobster's eye stalks.

The red titanic lobster shrieked as he tried to swat the fish away with his massive claws, the attack Flounder did was more of an annoyance then an actual attack. However, he and the fish had done their duty and helped the whales get to a safe distance. The monsters were getting really aggravated, and they were starting to attack more wildly! Titanosaurus roared loudly before opening up his sail on his tail, turning so that he could use his appendage as a fan again to whip up powerful waves and currents that would scatter the sea life like grains of sand in a whirlwind. However, he was stopped by Ebriah himself! The lobster had spotted Alana and was scuttling towards the mermaid, the daughter of Triton putting as much fin power as she could muster into her tail. She saw Titanosaurus turning, the sail on his tail open, and saw for an opportunity to try and turn the monsters on one another. The mature beauty looked back to her foe and exclaimed, "Come on, you overgrown shell-head! Try and catch me!". She then swam down and positioned herself right at the base of Titanosaurus's tail, now floating just above said area.

She whispered, "That's it… come on. Come on… just a little bit more…". She was patiently waiting for the lobster to come, and come he did! Ebriah was near to his quarry, and reached out with his claw to grab the half-human female! Alana waited until the right moment, then she swam up, high and fast just before Ebriah's left claw could snap shut around her! Instead, the claw snapped shut hard around Titanosaurus's tail! The red-skinned dinosaur cried out in anger and pain, jumping slightly as well before shaking violently to get the lobster's claw off his tail. The sail on it closed up, and the dinosaur turned to slash at the supposed ally who had just damaged his being. Ebriah reared up shrieking to defend himself against the attack and now tempted to focus his aggravation and rage at his supposed friend as well. Alana smirked as she turned to see the monsters now battling against one another, saying to herself, "Yes! It worked like a charm! Thank you gods and goddesses above!". She then swam over to her father, who had seen the entire event and was very proud and glad at his daughter's quickness and planning.

The elderly leader of Atlantica hugged his daughter tightly and stated, "Well done, Alana! You almost gave me a heart attack when I saw you waiting there for that titan lobster, but I should have trusted in your quick thinking. Now they are fighting with one another!". Alana blushed from the praise, saying that it was nothing and that she was hoping that her plan worked. She admitted that she was relying on luck to help her out in making the behemoths fight one another. Triton just smiled down at his adult daughter, very proud on how brave and wise she was. However, his face quickly turned from that of a prideful father to something that terrified him seriously. Alana saw the change in his face, and was about to ask on what was wrong… when she turned around and adopted the same shocked, scared face that was on her father's. For descending down on them quick was… Titanosaurus!

It would appear that the dinosaur was all set to claw and fight all-out against his comrade, but his yellow eyes spotted Alana… and seeing her swim straight towards Triton! The monster from another universe recognized the half-human creature as the one who defied him, his allies and his new mistress several days ago, who brought up all manner of nature against them with his tri-pronged staff. But he saw that the creature no longer possessed the object, therefore… he was vulnerable. Using what rage and fury he had within him, Titanosaurus made a fantastic leap through the water! The sea creatures got out of his way as he sliced through the sea, just like he did in days so long past that allowed him to catch prey easily. The behemoth landed right behind the two, the soft sand below cushioning his descent and muffling the sound. He was right behind his prey, and the dinosaur was NOT going to let them get away. Alana screamed loudly, clutching to her father tightly as the red monster reached out with his claws to catch them! Using instinct and pure strength, Triton pried his daughter off of him quickly and flung her away as far as he could before the two claws descended and closed around him.

Alana screamed loudly, "DADDDY!" and everyone witnessed Titanosaurus capturing the king! The red behemoth roared loudly, and headed towards the surface fast. The loyal servants of the king and his family could only watch in horror as their leader was taken to the surface. Ebriah followed, wanting to see what was making his 'comrade' act so unusual.

Titanosaurus emerged in spectacular fashion from the sea, just like he did the first time around in his universe in the year 1975. He roared loudly, and opened up his claws to show that in his right claw, right in his massive palm… was the sea ruler King Triton. The leader of Atlantica coughed, getting some bad water out from his lungs. They had come up fast, and while Titanosaurus was very much used to rising up quickly from the depths, the merman was not and thus was feeling much lightheaded and groggy. In a few moments, he shook his head and regained his bearings. He looked around to see that he was inside the palm of the enemy that had done so much damage to his kingdom, and glared right back at the dinosaur who was staring at him with his burning yellow reptilian eyes. Triton sat up as much as he could and declared, "You will not win, you beast! Do what you want with me, but at least I go knowing that your time will soon come!". Triton had that much faith in his family, both in the sea and on the land, winning the fight against the monsters and the witch that was controlling them. Titanosaurus roared loudly, and was prepared to toss the half-human creature into his mouth when he heard something familiar… and smelled something familiar as well!

The beast looked around, the ancient dinosaur looking for the object that was tugging at his senses. Triton was now confused as he saw the beast looking this way and that, his eyes at the sky as if trying to find something. "Has the brute gone mad or something?" he asked himself when he heard a sound as well. It was getting closer and closer, and he was now acting like Titanosaurs, trying to find where it was coming from. A second later, he was grabbed by something from behind and the being let out a screech that was familiar to the red amphibian. He looked down, and Triton looked behind him, to see that it was Rodan! The dinosaur was so surprised to see his former foe from his world, especially since he was now very small. The king of Atlantica felt his ribs hurt a little when the pteranodon grabbed his waist with his talons and flew off quickly into the air! The stunned Titanosaurus quickly got his senses back and roared with anger, screeching loudly as his nemesis was flying fast and free towards the ocean.

Triton looked behind him and recognized the beast as the one with Melody and her group some time ago. He remembered his name at being Rodan and stated, "T-Thank you, brave one! Thank you Rodan for saving my life. But, if you are here… where is Melody?!". Rodan just screeched, not truly understanding the half-human creature he just took from his old foe's grasp. Rodan did recognize him as the one that had the affection of Melody, Godzilla's bonded human, and also that she did get in between them last time they met. He knew that this bearded being was important to the group, and therefore needed to be rescued. When he got enough distance from his enemy, Rodan swooped in low and then dropped Triton right into the sea! It was not the most dignified of drop-offs, but it was safe one and the king was back in his element! Rodan screeched loudly seeing that his aquatic ally was back in the water, then turned around to see Titanosaurus heading his way… with Ebriah now showing up right beside him! The pteranodon felt his fighting spirit surge forth, and he went back to see how he could deal with his titanic foes!


~At the grove~

While Rodan was saving the king of Atlantica from certain doom, many of the other heroes and heroines were gathering as much strength and energy they could to prepare them for the next battle. Captain Jackson Dashboard was going over some plans that his men and also Bingwen Boqin had made in order to deal with the threat of an increased attack force that was coming soon. The captain of the Royal Guard wanted input and also advice from the Chinese elder for three reasons. One, Boqin demonstrated that one does not need a weapon to be a formidable warrior/fighter. During the fray, he showed prowess and skill by using his entire body as a weapon. Two, the advice that he gave to Merryweather was still clear in his mind. He was still amazed to see the small blue Good Fairy turn Megalon's own attack technique against him like that, and more so when the hybrid bug god of Seatopia was knocked out! Said monster was still knocked out, for about ten minutes nor so, but they all could feel that the monster was still trying to regain his bearings. And when he did… they all shivered on seeing the monstrous bug's full wrath. And third, Boqin had been a soldier in the Chinese army back in his homeland, once he told Jackson of this information. Thus, he was qualified somewhat to give military advice, and Jackson did like to hear some different suggestions for maybe a different point of view could make all the difference.

Jiaying, the wife of Boqin, was also doing her best to help the group. While her husband went over the plans, she was doing her best to help the children get accustomed to the new allies that had joined up with them. The elderly woman believed deeply that nature, in all their forms, should be treated with respect and dignity. Jiaying was showing the little ones; Regina, Carlitos, Sarah, Joshua and David on how to show the animals respect. The mothers and fathers looked on, very much fascinated on what they were witnessing. The Bingwen matriarch said, "Little ones, please listen and learn. When facing proud and strong animals like the wolf, you must show them the same respect and dignity. They are not the domesticated dog like Max is, they are wild and fierce. So, you must treat them with respect.". The elderly woman was sitting directly in front of one of the alpha wolves, the female to be more precise. The Chinese woman was looking directly at the alpha predator of the forest, who was sitting on her haunches and staring right back at the female human. Then slowly Jiaying bowed her head slightly in respect to the wolf, who carried her head high and let out a small growl of acceptance.

The adults were fascinated by this, for they had never seen a wolf accept something like this from a human. In the past, they had always been at odds with the alpha predators of the forest such as wolves, bears and so on. The wild animals made sure to protect their territory and food as best they could, while the humans did what they could to protect their own lives and interest such as sheep and such from said animals. They were always at odds at one another, and yet right now… they were together, brought as one by a common enemy. And more so, it seemed that a human was making progress with one of the wolves that was at the very top of her pack! Max was nearby, still in his very large Gray Wolf alpha form, ready to intervene should things get ugly. After a short time, Jiaying raised her head again and the alpha female gave a short, curt nod to her. The elderly female human smiled slightly before rising up and going to the stunned children.

"You go and try it. It is okay." she told the little ones before sitting down beside them. However, some of them were hesitant but the one to get up and try was Sarah! The little Brown girl went to the alpha female wolf, sat down like Jiaying did across from the predator, and looked at large wild dog in the eyes. The top female Gray wolf was a bit impressed by the bravery this little human showed. She remembered her from the failed ambush several days ago, and saw that the girl still had a strong spirit in her. Sarah looked at the wolf in the eyes before bowing her head a little, just like the Bingwen matriarch did. She then rose head and looked at the wolf in the eyes.

Sarah smiled and said, "You are a good wolf! You're not bad or evil, just being who you are. You good wolf!". It was just like any seven year old would say, and without fear or hesitancy. It was simple, truthful, and also sweet. The alpha wolf did not understand her completely, given the species barrier and all, but she did sense that this little girl was no threat and actually gave out a calm presence that made her feel at ease. She then got up and stalked to the little one, who amazingly showed no fear! Max was alert, a low growl in his throat, ready to pounce if anything bad happened. The adults held their breath, and the kids too, wondering on what was going to happen next! The alpha female wolf looked directly at the grinning girl, then… licked her face all over! Sarah squealed and giggled in delight as the female wolf accepted her! Her mate was also a bit stunned to see his alpha accepting a human child like that. After a few minutes of licking at her face, the Gray wolf lied down next to Sarah and put her head on her lap. The Brown girl was smiling brightly, not bothering to wipe the wolf saliva off of her face and was now petting the wild animal like it was a tamed beast!

Jiaying was stunned but her face quickly gave way to a smile, very glad to see that nature and man seemed to be in tune with one another. For the moment at least. The children were very much in awe, and was wondering if they could do what Sarah did. The wolf turned to her pack and yipped at them, telling her family that it was alright for the moment. The bears, who had been standing and watching on the sidelines, were also amazed to see such an action take place. Joshua and David slowly went to Sarah and sat down next to her, wondering if any of the wolves would come to them. Two of the lower wolves in the pack went to their leader, and sat across from the two boys. The mother was worried about the safety of her sons, but it seemed that those worries were laid to rest when the two lesser wolves went to the human kids and allowed them to pet their heads. Joshua and David did so carefully, still a bit unsure about what they were doing, but gradually, their fears faded away and they started to pet the wolves head more but respectfully rather then fearfully. Pamela sighed and said, "Oooh… that was a bit much for my heart to take. This week and such has been so incredible… I think this is one story my grandkids and great-grandkids are not going to believe.". The parents thought the same thing; that this was just too amazing that very few would even believe this story if they told it to the next generation.

Regina and Carlitos however, pulled off another impossible move that would be remembered for a good long while. The two went to the bears, the very same that had attacked them at the Sanctuary… and bit on as well when they ran to help Godzilla. The sister went to the female bear and said, "Sorry about biting you on butt earlier. We were just trying to help out our friend Godzilla.". The large Eurasian Brown female bear looked down at the female girl in mild surprise, and saw plus smelt that this was the same one that bit her on the backside some time ago when she and her mate fought the un-natural towering lizard on the beach. She growled and lowered her head, and Regina looked away shyly. The bear did not smell any fear on this human, unlike last time it met. After a few moments, the little five year-old did something surprising… she quickly threw her arms around the large head of the female bear, giving it a hug that surprised her brother and the two large predators! Regina whispered an apology, wanting forgiveness for biting the female on the bottom. The bear was so surprised that she did nothing, not experiencing a hug like this from anyone other than her own mate. But while the hug her mate gave her was also strong and sure, this one was different… warm, comforting, like that from her own cub… which she hoped to have soon, as one was within her now.

Regina let go of the large female bear, who was looking down at her and seeing the bright blue eyes of this human child. Instincts soon swelled within the beast, but not the territorial kind. It sat on its backside… then pulled the girl towards her, giving her a strong but gentle hug like a mother would a child! Regina squealed in surprise, but did not fight back. In fact, after a few seconds in the embrace, she smiled brightly and hugged right back! The adults turned and saw this event, and again were just stunned silly at seeing a sight that should all be but impossible in nature! Just goes to show them that nature is full of surprises, be they good or bad, and also blow science and such completely out of the water. Carlitos was amazed by his sister's bravery, then he looked at the male bear. The Brown bear looked down at the human boy, and was a little reluctant to do what his mate did. The human child was also unsure but… he was willing to give it a try. He held his arms out and said, "I'm sorry too. Think… think we can be friends?". The animal did not fully understand the language of the human, but he did sense that he was not a threat and was sincere in his gesture. A bit hesitant at first, the male bear pulled the boy in for a hug that his mate was doing with the female human. Though he did not have any of the instincts that the female had, the male bear felt something different when the human boy returned his hug. He felt… warm, and also good in receiving such a simple but true gesture. In fact, he started to feel like a certain cousin of his that wandered off long ago to the very far east. This gray bear cousin of his was so far removed from nature's instincts and laws, always wanting to play like a cub and was very easygoing in many aspects.

Angie Brown, who was sitting beside Max in his wolf form, looked down at the panting animal and scratched his head. The sheepdog-turned-wolf whined in pleasure and the human mother stated, "Max, this is truly a day to remember. In fact, I hope we all live long enough so that we can tell this bit of story to the future generation.". Max just whined more, wanting to be petted and the Brown matriarch just grinned and gave the loveable furry friend what he wanted. Nearby was William, the teenage lad still knocked out from Boqin's nerve pinch to his neck.

While the adults and children were getting along with the wild animals, Princess Kathrin was talking with the magical group. She was discussing a certain issue with Cateline the Fairy Godmother, Flora, Fauna, Merryweather, Rosalie the Enchantress, and the Twin Fairies Moll and Lora. The magic users of this world had finished healing the soldiers as best they could, and were now talking with the royal pre-teen. She asked the powerful magical beings, "Isn't there some way that we can speed up Mothra's transformation by another means? As it stands, we have little to no chance in surviving if the enemy brings in swelling numbers.". She was concerned not for her well-being, but for the people that were with her. Snow White and Florian had taught her that since they were of royal blood, their main and foremost concern was the people. And her strong, kind heart wanted to do anything to make sure the people here were going to be protected from the force of evil that was around them.

Cateline replied, "I am sorry, your Highness. But I am afraid that none of us know of any kind of spell that speeds up transformation processes. Especially ones that come from another universe entirely.". Flora, Fauna and Merryweather also agreed with the godmother guardian of the Charming family. The three Good Fairies stated while their magic could stimulate growth and such in plants, they had never truly done so for animals like caterpillars and such. Merryweather added in that they were still recovering, their magic returning to them slowly and were about near at half strength. Kathrin then turned to the Enchantress, hoping for a positive answer.

Rosalie shook her head and said, "I have power in turning others into what they are inside, and nothing else after that. I am afraid that my power is more for human nature… not natural nature.". Kathrin looked crestfallen, and the other fairies felt very sad that they were not able to help her. The Enchantress also added in that their magical powers were also regenerating slowly, having used much of it up in the previous attack from Maleficent's hordes.

Moll and Lora spoke as one, "We thank you for your help in wanting to aid Mothra. But even if you were all at full strength in terms of magic, we believe that it would have backfired in ways that could be damaging to all of us.". Moll saw the puzzled expression on their faces and explained that Mothra consisted of a different kind of magic that was alien to this world, and also that mixing magic from another universe could have chaotic consequences, be it good or bad. Lora added in that also Mothra would be affected by this magic, and they did not fully know what would happen if a combination of magic from this universe from different beings would have on her. Kathrin looked very depressed now, wondering on what they should do.

She got her answer when they heard a loud trumpet call from the palace-fortress… and the small but gradually steadying noise of footsteps came from the ominous place. Captain Dashboard turned to Kenneth and ordered, "Soldier, go up on the trees and see what is coming out way! I believe we may have to come up with an 'on-the-fly' plan.". The scout gave a brief salute before climbing up the trees to see on what was heading their way. He was good at climbing back in his youth, and it held true even to today. It took him a few minutes to reach the top of the tree was climbing on, and looked to the west… to see that a LARGE force was marching from the castle! And leading them was the same vulture demon captain from before! The youth paled a little before racing back down the tree, letting gravity aid him. When he reached the bottom, he turned to his captain and reported back to him.

Kenneth reported in a serious tone, "The enemy is marching from the palace-fortress, in numbers at least ten times that of what we fought earlier. And leading them is the same vulture-demon captain from before.". Captain Dashboard, and the rest who had heard Kenneth, were all very serious. Jackson calculated that the enemy forces were near a thousand or so, and that judging by the distance… they would be upon them within the hour. He turned to his soldiers and Boqin and was about to say something when they heard some rustling from nearby… from Megalon and Biolantte! The humans and animals turned to see that Biolantte's heart was beating again, slowly but gradually increasing in beats. Plus, it was now glowing red like a fiery furnace! They also turned to see that Megalon was rising up slowly, shaking his head and screeching softly. Apparently, the shock he experienced when his own Napalm red rock bombs was wearing off and he was coming to. Now the heroes and heroines, plus their new furry allies, were going to be facing two titans and a horde of about 1,000 demonic soldiers!

Jackson whispered to God above, "God, help us… we need some help badly…". He then turned to his men and Boqin, then looked to the magical beings that were with Princess Kathrin. It was time for a desperate, last-minute plan!


~With Anguirus and Minos~

The two heroes were still recovering from their fight with Tightfist when Anguirus sensed that something was wrong. He tilted his head up and followed his sixth sense, Minos looking at his friend as he eastward in the room. He asked, "What is it, friend? What do you sense?". He had seen the monster's sixth sense in action, and he had come to trust this kind of sense. He was hoping to gain such an ability in the future. Anguirus growled softly, they looked towards the solid wall that was in front of him. He then reared up on his hind legs and roared loudly, causing Minos to back up a little bit and cover his ears. Tightfist could not since he was still out-cold, face-down on the cold stone floor. The spiked-shelled monster then started to bash onto the thick stone wall, hurtling his body towards the stone earthen wall with all his might! The human strongman was amazed at the level of tenacity that his friend still possessed despite the fight against the General of Maleficent's army! It took a few body slams, but Anguirus managed to get on through! He created a huge gaping hole in the wall and started to charge more forward. He was digging through the palace-fortress, and since he and Minos were in the very center of the complex, Anguirus was now digging through!

Minos looked at his ally work and said to himself, "Well, better go with the flow. I bet he knows that there is trouble outside, and he wants to be in it!". He followed the best friend of Godzilla, hoping to find his companions… and also his wife Fatima, who he hoped was still alive and kicking. Anguirus worked furiously through the rocky structure, digging as best he could with his claws and teeth. He knew he was not a good a digger like his counterpart that was still back in his universe, Baragon. He remembered on how that monster was small in stature when compared to the other monsters, but he had abilities and talents that more then made up for his size. The spiked-shelled monster continued to dig for a few minutes, then hit a pathway that was wide and open. He heard female human shouting and turned his left, Minos following suit when he caught up with him. The two saw that it was Carlotta, the maid and servant of the Marcel family! It seemed that she was being chased by some of the demonic minions, two pig humanoid demons and a crow humanoid demon. The human and demons saw them, and Anguirus gave off a loud honking sound that caused the three minions of evil to squeal/caw in fright and retreat back!

Carlotta panted, catching her breath and looking at her saviors. She looked at Anguirus and Minos and stated, "Oh, thank God! Thank you for rescuing me! And Anguirus, it's good to see you again! But… who is your friend?". Minos introduced himself, and added that he and the others were sent by Melody to rescue her. Upon hearing that Melody was in the palace-fortress, the elderly maid was really flustered that her charge was here of all places! The deep bronze-skinned strongman assured her that Melody was fine, since Godzilla was with her. Upon seeing her confused face, the professional entertainer started to explain to her on what had happened so far. Well, the short version since they were on a schedule of sort. After the explanation, the three heard voices from a nearby door and Carlotta was fearful because she did not recognize them. However, Minos did and a small grin was on his face.

"Hahahaha! It seems that they are alive after all." he exclaimed, and that is when the owners of the voices came from the door. It was the six Dwarves, and apparently they were arguing with two people. Carlotta was surprised to see beings that she thought only existed in stories, but her surprise turned to joy when she saw that the dwarves were arguing with two of her colleagues, Grisby and Louie! She ran over and hugged the two, gathering them together with her in a bone-crushing hug. The arguments ceased as the two male humans were almost being crushed to death by the female one.

Minos looked to Doc and said that he was glad to see them, and also asked on what happened. Doc explained, "Well, while we were looking around the entire place, we heard loud roars that seemed to echo through everywhere! We got panicked and ran this way and that, all over the gad-plasted place until we finally all came to a room that was the kitchen. We saw the human ummm… Louie! Ah, that's his name. We found him arguing with some demon soldiers over the stove, and that is when we came in to rescue him! Got in a bit of a scuffle, though…". The strongman saw that Doc was telling the truth, seeing the dwarves clothing displaying slash and scratch marks. Their faces also carried some light scratching, but more likely would fade in a few days' time.

Grumpy butted in, "Feh! Them demons can't hold a candle to us dwarves! In any case, we found the round fool and took him with us when that Grisby fellow said that he was part of Melody's family. We've been running all over the place trying to find that Carlotta woman, and now we found her.". Minos was glad to see that his allies were okay, and that their mission to find the Marcel servants was a success. He looked around and counted, but he saw that the group was one dwarf short. He asked on where the silly-looking dwarf was, and that is when Doc explained that his name was Dopey and was hoping that he was with them. Minos was confused, because he did see Dopey go along with the dwarves earlier. He reasoned in his head though that the little guy must have decided to go with the others at the last second. Any arguments or conversation was halted when Anguirus roared again and continued to dig! He dug on through, still heading eastward.

"It seems that Anguirus is set on digging on through. He senses something bad happening, and he's trying to dig through this place to get to it.", Minos told everyone as he saw his ally dig on through.

Grumpy rolled up his sleeve, picked up his pick axe and grumbled, "Ha! Anything a monster can do at digging, a dwarf can do better! Come on everyone! Let's show this spiked-shelled beast how it's done!". He and the others left the humans to follow the monster, their axes scraping and destroying the dirt that was alongside Anguirus! Carlotta, Louie, Grisby, and Minos were a bit impressed on the tenacity of the dwarves. Louie said that he would never get used to this kind of thing, but the strongman just told him to go with the flow before following his allies. The Marcel servant trio did the same, though the chef wanted a long, nice vacation after this adventure.


~With the queens~

While the heroes and the civilians down below were digging through the structure, the legendary royal women from around Europe were looking for objects that would break the magical gemstones that houses the powers and strengths of the monsters! Snow White, Belle, Aurora, and Cinderella were frantically looking for any kind of hard object, while their friend Ariel was encased in a cocoon of green and black magic. They had thrown the weapons and shields they had earlier during their run from the crumbling path that led them to this room. They did so in order to increase their speed.

The former mermaid was doing her best to break the hold that the witch Maleficent had put on her father's trident, giving it her all in her heart and mind! Aurora suggested, "How about we use the other magical items that are around here to destroy the gemstones? We could seriously hinder Maleficent's plans if we destroy them?". However, Cinderella told her it was probably a bad idea. She stated that they would not know what would happen if different magics mixed together, and also that the items around here did not look strong enough to even lay a dent on the gemstones.

Belle looked upwards towards the ceiling and noticed that it had medium-sized stalactites were there. They were about the size and thickness of a baseball bat, and looked perfect for breaking stuff. She pointed upward and asked, "What about those? Can we use those to break the gems?". Cinderella looked upward like her friend, and saw that the Célestin queen had indeed found a solution! She looked to her fellow queens and said that they would need a boost of some kind to reach up and grab one of the pointed rocks that hung from the ceiling. However, Snow White was the one who provided a better solution… though, it surprised the lot of them. The gentle but strong royal woman of Germany was fiddling with a strange box that had strange symbols on it. She saw the label over said item on the shelf that read Pan Ku Box, and was curious on what that meant. She tapped the top a couple of times, then found that it turned easily. She twisted it around a couple of times, and suddenly the top part opened up and fired a green magical beam of sort!

The queens all shrieked and ducked as the magical green energy beam bounced all over the place! It bounced off the cocoon shield that was covering Ariel, bounced around inside some of the shelves but miraculously did not touch any of the magical items, bounced around the stalactites, bounced off the Magic Mirror, and the beam struck the box! The puzzle box was burnt to a crisp, and the magical beam dispersed. Snow White dropped the box, apologizing very profusely to everyone for what she did on accident. Fortunately, her little accident had caused four large, baseball-sized and shaped stalactites to drop near each queen. Belle put a hand on Snow White, smiled and stated, "Thank you, Mrs. Rhoda! That was the exactly the kind of 'accident' we needed!". Cinderella went over and picked up one, the others doing the same. They were slightly heavy, but nothing they could not handle.

Each queen went to a gem that each contained their respective bonded monster's power; Cinderella at the seahorse, Snow White at the tree, Aurora at the eagle, and Belle at the teardrop. Belle looked at her fellow royal rulers and declared, "Come on! We have to break these things… otherwise, our hopes of saving our friends and families will remain low! So… put all your strength you have into it!". With that said, she hefted the earthen club and brought it down hard on the magical object! It did not break, but the queen continued to whack at the gemstone. The others started to go to work on their own magical gems, doing they best to try and break the objects and release the power that was within!


Meanwhile, inside Ariel's soul…

Ariel Marcel was in her soul, which was a combination of land and sea. This represented all that she was; what she loved, what she disliked, what made her special… what made her what she is and always would be. The area looked exactly like the old castle grounds, complete with the Marcel palace and everything. However, the entire place darkened and a dark entity emerged from within the structure! Ariel gasped as she saw that the castle twisted and twined around itself to form… a dragon! The dragon was massive, black scaled with a purple underbelly, and green eyes that had no pupils whatsoever. It had wings that could easily carry it, and breathing a green flame that came from its mouth. Ariel backed away, very fearful of the evil-looking monster. However, it was nothing when she heard a familiar voice… one that was cool, silky and very aristocratic. The dragon spoke in the voice of… Maleficent! The creature stated, "Hahahaha! You think you can take what I now possess? You believe that your weak soul is a match for me? Then… be swallowed by darkness and flame!".

The dragon shot out a large plume of green flames that had black edges to it! Ariel screamed and ducked for cover, narrowly escaping the flames. She made a run for the forest behind her, but from it emerged familiar faces… the faces of the Monster bandits! Shadowsneak, Springy, Tightfist and the rest of the bandits were there! Maleficent's magic was playing on Ariel's old fears and such, bringing up some painful memories. The princess ran away from the laughing group as they chased her, right back to the black dragon! The creature belched out more flames at Ariel, but she dived down and did a roll, avoiding the green flames. However, she noted that the flames did not affect the bandits that were coming after her! Ariel continued to run as fast as she could, heading towards the ocean. However, once she reached the ocean, a storm brewed up and waves of great size was crashing on the beach! Emerging from the sea was the massive form of Ursula and Morgana, the Sea Witches that caused her great grief and trouble in the past! Ursula was in her giant form when she had the power of the trident before, and Morgana was also at her size with her minion Undertow the tiger shark swimming beside her!

The queen saw that the sea was not her refuge, and turned back to retreat… only to find that her escape was blocked by the insidious bandits and the black dragon. Ariel was backed into a corner; no escape on land nor at the sea. The dragon spoke up again, "You really thought you could defeat me? Me, the Mistress of all Evil?! HAHAHAHAHAHA! Tell me, little princess! What could you possibly have that could ever hope to defeat your fears?". The princess was panicking, trying to find some kind of strength… and she did find it, in the most unexpected of ways!

The sea started to foam and churn, and from the bubbly foam emerged… King Triton! The bandits stopped their walk towards the royal lady, and even the mighty Maleficent dragon halted as the king of Atlantica rose from the depths. Ariel felt a warmth and surge of protectiveness coming from her father, the kind she felt as a child. The king grew until he was about the size of Maleficent's dragon form, and with a wave of his hand… lifted Morgana, Ursula, and Undertow from the sea and dumped them behind him! The king offered his right hand to Ariel. Said beauty smiled brightly and climbed onto the massive hand of her father, who brought Ariel close to his face.

He said in Triton's own voice, "Ariel, you do not need to be afraid. Your fears are old, brought up by evil's magic. You have something that can defeat the twisted, vile magic that is trying to break your spirit. That is the love and good memories of your family and friends. Look, see for yourself!". He then held up his hand high, and in the heavens… she saw her friends and family! Coming up first were the citizens of the kingdom, the delightful people she had the pleasure of knowing and befriending. Both on the land when she was human, and in the sea when she was a mermaid. Following them were the friends she recently made; the royal families and also the ones that her daughter befriended. Next up was her family; King Eric and her own daughter Melody. Both greeted Ariel with warm, true smiles and love showing in their eyes. The kind of special, sweet and strong love that no kind of evil would, or could ever, touch! And finally… coming down last… were the monsters! Showing up was Anguirus, roaring at Ariel but she did not feel fear of any kind. Rather, she felt strength surging through her! Next was Rodan, who flew up and around the others. Next was Mothra, in her worm form. She squeaked at Ariel, and the queen felt a gentle but strong feeling coursing through her.

The last one really made her believe that she could win… that she could fight! Emerging from the water next to Triton was a familiar form… one that made Ariel smile in delight and the evil ones on the land to cower in fear. From the depths, arriving up in spectacular fashion like he did back in his own universe was… Godzilla! The King of the Monsters stood beside the King of the Sea, and his familiar roar echoed throughout the land! The bandits cowered in fear, and even the behemoth forms of Ursula, Morgana, Undertow and Maleficent flinched from the sound! But to Ariel, it was music to her ears! She looked at her father and the king smiled before gently putting her in the claw of Godzilla. He said to her as he glowed brightly, along with the rest of the family and friends that were in the sky above him, "Ariel, never doubt yourself. Never let fear try to be bigger then the love you have for your family and friends. Now go! Show this evil magic on why you ARE a daughter of both the sea and the land!". The king turned into a form of light, and shot himself into Ariel's being!

The queen felt the love from her father, glowing from her heart area! One by one, the others above turned to pure light and flew into her being as well! Except for Melody, who stayed in her normal form and landed next to her. Godzilla too remained unaffected, and he was just gazing down at the two of them. Ariel felt the bond connecting her to her family, friends… and her two strongest connections yet! Ariel held out her right hand… and coming to it was the trident! The magical object was not tainted, it was back in its original, brilliant golden form! She heard some splashing nearby, and Godzilla turned to see that coming to them was Ursula, Morgana, and Undertow! The redheaded beauty simply smirked and aimed the trident at them, Melody forming the same smirk as she was. She looked up at Godzilla and stated, "Okay Godzilla… let's blow this bad past away! Fire!". The King of the Monsters obeyed her command, and his spines flashes a brilliant blue color as he opened his maw and let loose his Radiation Death Breath! This breath was different because it held the courage, strength, and love of Ariel! In short, it was the princess's own power shining through in the form of the heat beam! The brilliant beam struck true, incinerating at the same time the two massive octopus women and the tiger shark!

Maleficent screeched in rage and exclaimed, "WHAT?! How can this be?! How can a mere mortal heart be more stronger then my own magic?!". She flinched when Godzilla turned to her, Ariel and Melody secure in his right claw. The bandits down below were whimpering in fear, and soon made a break for the forest. Ariel pointed the trident at them, and the saurian let loose another blue pillar of flame! It struck the villains, who turned into black globs of fear energy before vanishing. Now… all that was left was Maleficent herself. Or more specifically, the magic of the witch that had taken the form of her dragon side. Godzilla roared loudly at the dragon, who flew up high in the air! Maleficent was nowhere near Godzilla's size, so it took to the air. However, the saurian brought his other claw down and swatted the dragon away like a fly! The magical form screeched in pain and anger, crashing down the landscape. The magically constructed dragon looked up to see Godzilla opening his maw, preparing for another blast, while the trident glowed bright gold! Ariel and Melody's hands were on the trident, and directed right at Maleficent!

"YOU CANNOT DEFEAT ME! I AM PURE EVIL MAGIC!" it screeched, trying to use wings to get away.

Ariel merely smirked and responded passionately, "Maybe… but evil, fear and hate… are no match for goodness, courage and… LOVE!". The trident fired its pristine golden beam, while Godzilla fired his own energy beam! The two twined and twirled together, until it became a mixture of gold and blue energy! It struck Maleficent true, the dragon roaring as the witch's own scream mixed in with it! The beast dissolved into black globs of energy, and soon dispersed. Ariel looked at her daughter and Godzilla… then the world turned pure white!


The queens of their respective realms have been hammering away at the gemstones, but so far all of their efforts seemed to only crack the strong magical jewels. Belle was about to think of another strategy when a flash of gold caught her, and the others attention. They turned to see the cocoon of magic turning from black-green to a brilliant gold color! It flashed brighter, and they closed their eyes to protect them. The flash died down, and they opened their eyes to see… Ariel, and in her hands was the trident! No longer was it tainted, but it was restored to its original brilliance! The former mermaid smiled at her fellow queens and asked, "Hi! Did I miss anything?". The others chuckled, glad to see that their friend was okay and in one piece. Snow White answered that they were okay, but needed some help in breaking the gemstones. Ariel saw this, and told the others to take a few steps away from the table where the gemstones laid on. She lined herself so that all were in a straight line, and she hefted the trident up high.

"Okay… let's try this! Trident, help me to break these gems! Help me to set my friend's power free!" Ariel exclaimed before giving off a yell and bringing the long tri-pronged magical staff down! The staff connected with all four gems, cracking them like eggs! Using normal means would have gotten the job done, but in more time then they would have wanted. But with a strong magical item that came from this world, the gems were more vulnerable. Everyone, including the Slave Spirit within the Magic Mirror, saw the different colored energies rushing out! Mothra's golden energy flew out the window, Angurius's brown energy did the same. Rodan's red energy went out through the roof on the west side, and Godzilla's energy went through the stone wall on the east side! It was truly a sight to behold!

Aurora then asked the question, "So… what happens now?". She was going to get her answer, in a most violent and unexpected way…


~With Godzilla and the others~

While the adult women were doing their best to break the magical jewels with their makeshift stone clubs, the royal children, local heroes, young dwarf and small animals were keeping one irked shadow being at bay. Godzilla was still trying to get his senses back, but it was taking time due to the toxic poison that Shadowsneak injected into him. Melody and the others were doing their best to make sure the former human and leader of the Monster bandits was focusing on them rather then their disabled monster friend. However, Shadowsneak was not making it easy as he was very good at tactics. He had been using his Shadow Teleport technique to cut off or surprise the group at every turn, and also came very close to slicing them or touching them with his venom-tipped bone blades. The group was running out if steam fast, but the sneaky villain was running on plenty of stamina due to his magically enhanced body. He laughed and exclaimed, "Come on, kiddies! Is that the best you can do?!". In truth, he was enjoy this little game… like a cat would a mouse before finishing it off.

Melody and Tracy were together, running away from the crazed shadow being and trying to come up with a plan that would capitalize on Shadowsneak's weakness. So far though, their attempts were in vain as the villain seemed to know what they were thinking and used some skillful moves to counter their plans. The Marcel princess looked to her friend and whispered, "Tracy, we need to do something fast or else we're going to be finished! And Godzilla hasn't recovered fully from that stuff Shadowsneak put into him!". Tracy answered that she was all out of ideas, and was hoping that Melody had one. However, they passed by a large statue of Hercules, one that Shadowsneak's demonic minions stole from an antique store some time ago in one of the areas they went to before being called back by Maleficent herself, and were soon hoisted into the air! The princesses were focused so much on running and planning, they failed to see that they had stumbled into a trap!

Shadowsneak chuckled evilly as he held the princesses in each hand, relishing that he now had what he wanted. He turned to the remaining group, which were scattered this way and that due to his clever ploys. He exclaimed, "Look to your rulers, commoners! It's the last you will see of them!". He looked to Melody, and had one of the bone blades pointed at her neck. Tracy struggled, but the villain's grip was too tight and sure. Melody closed her eyes, tears leaking out at thinking that this was the end… then something happened! Shadowsneak and Tracy saw the Marcel princess glowing a bright golden color, and the sudden brightness caused the foul fiend to release his grip on his two hostages! Tracy and Melody dropped to the ground, and the Charming princess went over to check on her friend. She asked on what was going on, and Melody's reply was that she did not know.

"I feel… I feel so warm! So strong! I feel… I feel like my heart is on fire!" she exclaimed, looking at herself in awe. Shadowsneak was close, shielding his eyes from the light show. He was now wondering on what was happening, and why it was happening now! He felt something coming from the other side of the room, and he plus the others saw that Godzilla was alit too! The saurian was glowing blue though, and he seemed to be getting stronger! Dopey took a closer look, and then got excited and pointed to Godzilla's chest area. Those who were with him; Sebastian, the mice, and Oliver saw that an ooze was coming out of the King of the Monster's chest. The African lad concluded that it must be Shadowsneak's venom, and the blue light was dissolving the poison! Godzilla then stood tall and high, fully healed and back in action! He turned to the being who poisoned him, who slashed at him, and roared with all his fury! The heroes and heroines cheered loudly, while Shadowsneak was infuriated. The saurian then charged at the shadow being, his speed surprising them all. However, Shadowsneak just shook his head and prepared to teleport.

"Foolish creature… even if you did somehow survive and extracted the poison with that weird blue light, I'll still take you down!" he stated before he put his foot over a shadow pillar, preparing to teleport again. However, his plan became undone when he felt two small but strong hands on his arms! He turned to see that it was Tracy on his left, Melody on his right! The two princesses were using the same tactic as last time… the very one they used on him before when he was human, during the party and him almost delivering a fatal blow to Godzilla back then! The two young pre-teen ladies had fire back in their eyes, the same protective instincts that flared up as before! The two princesses yelled loud before biting down on Shadowsneak's shoulders, on the very same place they did before at Melody's party. The shadow being yelled in pain, losing his focus and thus preventing himself from teleporting into the shadows. It was at this precise time that Godzilla charged, barreling into the villain and grabbing him tight so he did not escape! One problem though was… Tracy and Melody were still attached to Shadowsneak!

Everyone called out, "MELODY! TRACY!". Shadowsneak glared at the saurian that grabbed him, and tried to break free. However, the princesses used their strength to keep the bad man immobilized long enough so that his strength was not used at its fullest. The King of the Monsters kept charging… heading right towards the wall!

Shadowsneak growled, "One chance… have to risk it!". He concentrated as best he could despite the pain, and he used the shadow of Godzilla and himself to go right through the wall, taking himself, Godzilla, and the princesses with him! The four beings were soon surrounded by darkness, and a small window of light showing a scene of some kind. They were in the Shadow Realm, and the windows of light were portals to other areas around the land! However, it only lasted for a few moments when Godzilla continued forward. The saurian was not to be stopped and rushed through a portal… one that connected to the room where the queens were at! Said women shrieked in surprise and fright as they saw Godzilla emerge from a shadow! Godzilla kept right on going, and went through the wall! Luckily for him, Shadowsneak took most of the force, the pre-teen ladies letting go just after they passed through the portal and latching onto Godzilla. The bad news was… Shadowsneak was knocked out when they hit the wall, and all went through it! They crashed right through, and below them was the ocean! What made it worse, Ariel and Cinderella were knocked over with them due to Godzilla's tail! The appendage was waving wildly due to Godzilla's fighting nature, and knocked both adult women over.

Godzilla turned and heard the women screaming, and saw that it was his bonded adult humans. He and the girls were wondering what had happened, because everything had be done so fast that their minds were a bit busy now processing on what had occurred. However, the saurian kept his wits about him and held out his arms to slow his descent if only slightly. But, it was enough to grab Ariel and Cinderella! Melody and Tracy scrambled over to them, and when they were together, Godzilla held them tightly and braced for impact. He was going to use his back as cushion, to protect the girls from being injured from such a fall! Ariel held her daughter tightly, not realizing the trident was still in her hand! And also that she and her daughter were still glowing gold while Godzilla's blue aura was increasing in strength and radiance until he resembled a bright blue star! Shadowsneak impacted on the water hard, sending up a big plume of water. Godzilla came second, still bathed in the blue light.

Snow White, Belle and Aurora looked down, all very much confused and horrified on what just happened. The Valentin queen looked to her friends and exclaimed, "What just happened?! How did…?!". Her words were cut off when four things happened all at once! First off, they saw in the distance a bright glowing red object that was steadily growing in size and intensity! Snow White pointed out that underneath the light were the two monsters from before, Titanosaurus and Ebriah. Just then, they all felt the palace-fortress shaking violently and heard a loud CRASH down below. The legendary ladies turned down to and looked to their right to see a brown glowing object crashing through the earthen wall! It was glowing brilliantly, and the object was increasing in size greatly and quickly. Aurora saw a golden glow coming from the grove, and the entire forest seemed to be glowing as well! The queen looked up to see Biolantte and Megalon, and they were right near the glow which was increasing in strength!

Suddenly, they heard the waters churning… bubbling like mad! The ladies looked to their left to see the action, and saw a glow that was a mixture of gold and blue! Belle whispered, "What in God's name is going on?". From the depths, rising slowly and in majestic fashion was a blue being… one that was familiar. It was… Godzilla! The King of the Monsters was back, and it seemed that he was alright! He was back to his original size and power, the blue glow being absorbed into him quickly. It seemed that the blue glow was his power, the ones that got taken away nearly two weeks ago when they first entered this world. The queens were in awe, seeing the saurian back to his full strength and power! Within his right claw was a strong glow, and Godzilla slowly opened his claw to reveal… Ariel, Cinderella, Melody and Tracy! They were all okay, and the adult ladies cheered loudly in delight!

Ariel and Tracy were holding the trident which was still glowing, the pre-teen's hand on the lower end of the trident while the queen's hand was above hers. Cinderella and Tracy were standing tall and proud with their friends, and all four of them had serious looks on their faces. Ariel Marcel and her daughter hefted the trident high over their heads and a strong bolt of lightning emerged from it to strike the skies! And Godzilla let out his infamous, mighty roar as his spines flashed blue and he let out his famous blue breath to the skies as well! The monsters were back!


(Author's Notes: And… cut! Whew… this was one serious chapter for me to write! But it was worth it, dedicating it to my little niece Isabel was all worth the effort! So, what do you think? Godzilla is back to his old, normal self! Well, size and power-wise that is. His monster allies will shortly follow, and then the real battles begin… Toho old-school style! Get ready to see some action! At the grove, out at sea, and also near the palace-fortress! Be ready to see some action and fighting that I hope is worthy of both Toho and Disney!

So, here are the questions. What did you think of Ariel's soul room battle? What do you think of the rescues performed by the monsters? Did you spot any Hidden Mickey's or any cartoon Easter eggs I snuck in? If you saw the magical item that Snow White accidentally set off, try and guess which show it belongs to! And finally… how do you like Godzilla rising up, with his bonded right with him? If it was up to you, what kind of music would you pick to commemorate the moment when Godzilla slowly rose out from the sea in all his old-school glory, and why?

R&R, no flames, enjoy and leave long reviews!)
