Monsters and Magic: Burning Finale
By: DJ Rodriguez
(Author's Notes: Hi everyone! Wow… so many reviews in so little time! Thank you to all for your words of advice, encouragement and reviews! And an extra shout-out to those that answered the questions I post up. I really want the readers to feel like they belong in the story as well, so to speak. Also, had to check for anime shows that existed in 1996 and below so that the girls could see cameos or brief images of them. Anime shows like the one I put up, Rurouni Kenshin, will just have brief flashes and cameos.
But before anything else, I will do this! I give thanks to God and Jesus Christ for helping me with this! Believe me, on most novels I either give up on it or take a long time to complete. But with this… the Lord has given me the drive, courage and conviction to see my novel trilogy idea all the way through! To put together the two things I have loved dearly since my early childhood into something like this… in my view, it will always be incredible to even think about! So thanks to God and Jesus, all the way!
Also to give you a heads up! An author here at Fanfiction, going by the name of superkoola… he has graciously done what I requested! He, or She, has written a Monsters & Magic/Sofia the First crossover! YAHOO! It is titled Sofia the First: Battle for Enchancia, and it has a strong prologue so far. So please, go forth and read & review it! It does have potential, so please see it as soon as you can.
And one last thing. Would like some more fashion advice for the girls. They will be in Tokyo for a while, and I just need one more fashion piece for them. It is… kimonos! The formal kind like the ones worn at important events and such. Can any of you help me out by giving me kimonos for the ladies to wear? Send suggestions and ideas to me via PM, if you please.
I do not own Godzilla or any of the characters and monsters that belong officially to Toho, nor any of the Disney characters and places that belong to said company. I do own my OC creations, and most of the songs so far shown in my novel trilogy set. If I use a song that is by another artist, I will give him/her/them their proper dues and credit, as it is their right.
Now, on with the novel!)
Chapter 6
Ariel, Melody and the rest of the visitors from the other universe were looking through the windows of the limo they were in as they approached G-Force headquarters building. Outside, they saw rows of men and a few women in uniforms going on a jog lead by their instructor. Elsa and Anna managed to get a peek of other G-Force soldiers/fighters training in a long yard, doing push-ups and other exercise routines. Miki saw the curious looks on the ladies faces and explained, "G-Force is seriously committed to going and being in any dangerous situation where any of the kaiju are at. In any area that has a giant monster or any other serious threat, we feel that we need to go in prepared. So the soldiers go through vigorous training, in the morning and afternoon.".
The royal women had seen military training back in their world, the captains and other officers of high rank putting their soldiers AND themselves into intense physical training. The thing that really surprised them was that even though they were few in number, women were with them. In uniform and keeping up with the formidable training exercises. Melody thought, 'I think Jackson Dashboard would be thrown for a loop if he saw that women were doing military training.'. It wasn't that the former Captain of the Marcel-Oxen guard was a sexist or anything negative like that, but he along with many others back in their universe felt that woman couldn't keep up with the training they set forth on their own men.
Needless to say, General Jackson & Gen. Raven Rissing were very much stunned at seeing the image they were receiving right now at this very moment. The menfolk too, and the women/girls there felt a sense of pride swell up in their hearts at seeing their 'sisters' take part in something like this.
When they arrived at the entrance to the building, the driver opened the door for them and the ladies stepped out. The recruits and other members of military rank slowed down or paused in their exercises to see the visitors from another world. The higher-ups had been briefed about the information concerning the queens and magical beings. They in turn also briefed the soldiers and recruits. Although many were amazed to see beings from another universe entirely, some also had a bit of animosity towards Melody and the others. Nothing extreme, but they were upset to learn that the women actually defending Godzilla and the other monsters that had caused nothing but problems for their homes and families. Few were even more infuriated that the gaijin women were actually bonded to the titans, especially the King of the Monsters!
When they went inside the building, the military folk resumed their training but some promised themselves to talk to the royal & magical beings later on. To get more intel on them on a more personal, one-on-one level to speak.
Upon entering the facility, Miki and Tadao led them straight towards the heart of the building where the Command Center was at. They had modeled the center after the secret bunker area that was used to monitor Godzilla when he emerged in 1985, upgrading and adding their own plans to the schematics of course. As they passed by some of the rooms, Alice and Fairy Godmother Cateline saw a door that was marked MECHANICAL WEAPONS: AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY. The mature English beauty said to herself softly, "Very curious… very curious indeed.". Ever since she was a young lady, her curiosity was strong and had retained its strength ever since growing up. Her curious nature often led to interesting consequences, good and bad. But when it rose up, it ALWAYS led to something exciting and adventurous!
And was brewing up even now.
After a bit of a walk, the group went through some double-doors and were now in the Command Center. Cinderella whispered in awe, "Incredible… what a fantastic place this is!". Indeed, the Command Center hosted many employees and computer terminals where various information was being shown, recorded and delivered to others. A huge screen was in front of them, one that showed a world globe that spun on its access. For the ladies, it was truly a place of marvel that got their attention good. Miki and Tadao gently guided the group towards Professor Fukazawa and Kenichi, who were waiting for them near one of the large computer terminals.
"Ladies, this is the Command Center. The very heart of G-Force. And also, I would like to introduce you all to Kenichi Yamane. He's one of our latest recruits, and also it would appear has information on Godzilla." Miki stated. The young Japanese lad was very much surprised to see the gaijins, especially since they were so beautiful in a mature kind of way. Having a charm that really caught on to him. He bowed to the ladies, who returned the polite gesture in kind.
Kenichi inquired, "So, Miki told me earlier that you can track down Godzilla and his son, the Little One. How can you, even when our own computers or even Miki can't track them at the moment?". He and Fukazawa were still impressed to learn that the ladies had a simple yet powerful connection to the monster. The professor was briefed earlier on what happened yesterday in the interrogation/interview with the visitors, and honestly the elder man was simply stunned to learn about the royal queens and the magical beings. In his view, they just blasted science and reality completely away!
Before any of the girls can reply to his question, a voice came out from behind them. A familiar one that, at the moment, were not too fond of. "I would like to see if their connection with the monsters is as accurate and valid as they claim to be.", General Isao Jun stated. He had come into the building quickly after seeing the morning news, just like the Disney ladies did. He was also informed that said women were coming over, and now he wanted to see if they could truly prove that their bond with Godzilla and his spawn was accurate. In his view, seeing was believing.
Lady Benedtika spoke, "I can assure you sir, that my companions here can find what can't be found. Even though these… things of yours around here is quite impressive, one thing I am certain. NEVER underestimate the power of the heart, which is what they have plenty of.". The Mountain troll female, though looking very human to them, showed that she was ready to defend her friend's honor if need be.
The general was about to retort, but the words died on his lips when the lights everywhere started to flicker on and off. And the monitor and terminal screens also flickered, showing to all that something was wrong. Isao demanded from one of the staff members, "You there! What is going on?!".
The member, a technician replied, "A power surge, sir! I believe that one of the electricians that came here to fix one of the problems in the training room crossed a couple of wires in the wrong way. It's affecting the systems, and now…". Just as he was about to finish his sentence, the power in the computers went offline. The one things on at the moment were the normal lights fixated above and on the walls, and the large monitor that showed the planet. But instead of a spinning three-dimensional globe, it was now back at the default setting of a two-dimensional map.
The entire group in the room were now trying to turn their computers on, but nothing happened. The technician finished his words, "It seems we lost major power to the computer system. It will be some time to be back online, maybe a couple of hours. On the good side, it was only the computers here that lost power. Most of the security stations and rooms are still operational.". While it was good news on some level, the general and many others were taking the bad news hard. The Command Center was the only place in the building that had the necessary means to track and follow any kind of giant monsters that showed up on the screen. Without any information coming in, any kind of attempt to locate anything would be going in blind.
While the workers of G-Force were now scrambling around to see on what they could do to bring power back to the systems, Melody and Ariel looked towards the two dimensional map that was on the main screen right now. Ariel looked to her daughter and inquired softly, "Can you feel it, Melody? I feel… very warm right now. Right here in my heart. Do you think…?".
Melody answered back, "Not just think, mother. I know. I believe that our hearts are connecting with Godzilla right now, and its trying to point us in the right direction. Come on, let's focus and concentrate some more. Tell Elsa, Anna, Tracy and Cinderella to do the same.". Ariel nodded and looked to her companions, telling them to focus and concentrate on the feeling within. The four ladies knew right away on what she meant, and the bonded of Godzilla started to search deep within their hearts on the connection. For the link that was there, to show and guide them towards their large, burning-red friend. Ariel handed the Twin Fairies to Rapunzel to keep them safe.
While most of the people were working in a near-frenzy to try and correct the problem with the power surge and computers, Miki and Kenichi looked from the action to the six girls who were had their hands to their hearts and slowly making their way to the map. Miki tugged slightly on the arm of Professor Fukazawa and whispered, "Professor, look at that.". He did, and so did the general when he saw the professor look away from the small chaos that was everywhere.
Gradually, all employees and staff slowed down their work until all stopped. The entire crew of G-Force inside the Command Center was now focused on the six visitors as they walked slowly towards the map monitor. It was like they were in a daze, but their eyes were closed. And that is when the aura sprang up! From their hearts gradually emerged an aura of color, which caused many to gasp in surprise and back away from the women. Lady Beneditka and Cateline had small but proud smiles on their faces. Before them was stirring the special magic that came from the heart, a unique and mysterious kind that not even they could predict at times.
Ariel and Melody's hearts glowed a deep royal blue, like the commanding seas themselves! Elsa's heart started to glow in a light white-blue color, the sign of ice and snow. Anna's heart was covered in a warm, red-orange color similar to a roaring fire in a fireplace on a cold winter's night. Tracy and Cinderella's hearts were covered in a platinum-colored aura, similar to the sparkling dress that Cateline made for her charge many years ago when she was a young lady.
When the girls were close to the map layout, they all reached out with their right hands which was covered slightly in the aura. All held their breaths as they something that really defied scientific explanation. Their hands were glowing weakly where Japan was, and the ladies lowered their hands. In a way, they were scrolling through the map with their hearts as the clicker, so to speak. Their aura-covered hands started to glow brighter as they neared a very small group of islands that lied south in the East China Sea. Soon, their hands started to pulse brilliantly and stopped on the spot.
Elsa spoke out with confidence, "There! Godzilla is close there, to one of these spots here on this map you have.".
Kenichi spoke up, "Those are the Ryukyu Islands, a chain of small but plentiful islands that are part of Japan. Can you pinpoint where Godzilla is at?". Melody replied in a negative, that they were not too sure of the exact spot, but that they were confident that he was near the southern most part of the islands.
General Isao stated, "If that is true, than we must act fast and get a visual on the monster! I'll send a team to…". His words were interrupted when Miki stood in front of him, her eyes showing that she had something to say and that she would not be denied.
The psychic spoke up, "General Isao… if you please, let me go to see if Godzilla is truly near that area. And to take Cinderella, Ariel, Melody, Elsa, Anna, and Tracy with me. They are the ones that can locate Burning Godzilla, and if he is there… perhaps they can find a way to stop his destruction.". The general was hesitant to send the ladies away from G-Force due to their huge potential in bringing the monsters under the military's control, but he had little choice in the matter now. With the computers down in the Command Center, and after witnessing a sight that was truly amazing, he had to rely on the royal women from another universe.
He sighed and replied, "Okay… you can take the choppers that can take you to the islands in about three or so hours. But, the second it seems that Godzilla is to attack, retreat back here immediately! Understood?" Miki nodded, a bright smile on her face as she sensed that she had won a battle.
Rapunzel inquired, "Wait! If they are going out, what are we supposed to do here? Just wait?".
Tadao answered, "Not at all. While your companions are away, myself and Professor Fukazawa can give you a tour of our facilities. Of course, not the ones that are restricted. You understand, right?". Regina and the others said they understood… but that didn't mean they would try to 'visit' said areas when no one else was around. Kenichi also said he help, wanting to know more about the new guests of G-Force. Isao agreed to that, but reminded them to just stay out of trouble for now.
Miki started to escort her friends towards the area where G-Force kept is aircrafts for deployment, Kenichi and the others following them out the exit. Upon leaving the exit, the young Japanese lad quickly took Miki's hand, stopping her for a moment. He looked into her slightly surprised eyes and whispered, "Saegusa-san, can you please record all you can on this trip? I need visuals and such on Godzilla, close up. That way, I can make a really sound theory and more concerning him. It's very important.". Miki was a bit startled by his request, but replied that she would take a video recorder that would get the data he needed.
He smiled and thanked her with a little bow before going back to catch up with Regina and the others. Miki looked back at the young lad, wondering if he truly had a greater understanding of Godzilla and his recent power-up. Anna looked to her psychic companion and asked, "Miki, is something wrong?". That snapped her back to reality, and she replied that everything was okay. She resumed escorting the girls to the hanger where the aircrafts were at, hoping a little that the ladies would get a kick out of seeing the 'metal flying machines'.
With the others, Tinkerbell had an idea form in her head. She looked towards Silvermist and Vidia and whispered, "You two, can you fly over quick to Ariel and Melody's group? We want you to be with them in case something happens.".
Silvermist was a bit puzzled by this and asked, "Us? Why us?". Tinkerbell explained that even with Elsa's ice powers, and the magical items they were given, their friends could use some small but potent extra back-up. Silvermist's abilities with water could come in handy, and Vidia's fast-flying speed would be good in making quick getaway, so to speak.
Said fast-flying fairy looked to her companion and asked, "Tink, what is this really about?". She was suspicious on the Tinker-talented proposal. She felt that something else was up.
Tinkerbell sighed and replied, "Okay, there's another reason why I want you two to go. I really don't trust this… Tadao person, and also Isao well. And I see no reason at this point to show either of them ALL of our abilities and such. So if we split up, at least some of us have a chance to do something with those we truly trust. So if something bad really does happen, which I hope not still, at least some of us will be free from them.". The pixies saw that their blonde friend had a point. Both humans felt untrustworthy at this particular point, and they went with their instincts. Plus, it was a good plan in the long run that the pixies would not keep all of their eggs in one basket, as the phrase stated.
Silvermist and Vidia looked to one another, nodded and prepared to make a silent, quick exit from Rapunzel's hair while they had the chance since very little people was around right now to spot them. The beautiful Water-talented fairy spoke, "Okay, we'll go. We'll tell you everything that we see or do while with Ariel and the others.".
Vidia added in, "You and the others just make sure to tell us what you see here in this… man-made building. Okay?". Vidia was still very wary of buildings and such made by humans, but not so much where it concerned her friends' homes back in their own universe. Tinkerbell promised that they would tell the two everything when they got back.
In the blink of an eye, the two residents from Pixie Hollow & Neverland flew from Rapunzel's long, golden mane and went towards Miki's group before they were completely out of sight. Luck was on their side as no one saw them, and the duo burrowed quickly into Tracy's hair. Said queen paused a moment to feel her black hair, as she felt something go in it. She soon shrugged her shoulders and walked a little bit faster to catch up with the others.
~Back in the Disney Universe~
While a day had passed in the Toho realm, about two passed in the Disney one. It seems that the royals had some extra guests at the Marcel-Oxen home… make that a LOT of guests. Somehow, word leaked out on the disappearance of the sixteen brave souls that had willingly gone to crossover into another universe, and now Genie and the Magic Mirror had to cater to almost all that dwelled in the village near the castle. Oliver and the other royal visitors did their best to calm the situation down, to make sure that it didn't turn completely chaotic. Genie and Eden found the solution by turning the large area that was between the castle and the village into a large open-theater of sort. He used his magic to increase the size of the TV viewing screen so that all could see it, and plugged into the Magic Mirror so that it could transmit its magical viewing images into said screen.
Needless to say, the entire population was in awe at seeing a world that was, in their view incredible. Every man, woman and child were in awe at seeing the towering, different-structured buildings. The plentiful population that was somehow squeezed into such a large metropolis, and how they looked similar to Fa Meihui. The big shock for them was seeing their beloved rulers in new clothes, clothing that seemed very bold for them. Even the royals were a bit stunned to see Ariel, Melody and the others in new wear.
The same could be said for the beings of Atlantica, who had been seeing the progress of the royal women ever since they left. King Triton, Queen Sonia and Ariel's sisters were very much surprised to see what human women wore in the other universe. Even the sea animal citizens were perplexed and puzzled upon seeing the styles of Japan.
After the shock wore off, Oliver got his wits back together and ordered some servants to start sending letters to the people of Agrabah, Arendelle and Lelystad. To inform them of the situation, plus to tell them that they would update them on said situation as best they could. The servants bowed and went back to the castle to do as their king commanded. When the husband of Melody returned back to the area where the population was at right now, he could hear some murmuring running through the people. The king made his way to where General Jackson Dashboard was at and inquired, "General, what is going on? What has happened?".
The honorable soldier answered, "It seems that the military of that world differs greatly from ours. They actually have women in their ranks, and they train with them! See for yourself, your Highness.". Oliver indeed did just that, looking up at the giant movie-like monitor. The Magic Mirror was at the part where the royals and magical women were arriving at G-Force headquarters, and showing to all on how the organization's military were letting women train with the men. Even though the number was very few, a sense of pride and accomplishment surged through the local women and girls. Even Fa Meihui had a grin on her face, the warrior woman feeling proud to see such a thing and believing that her ancestor Mulan would be pleased to see this as well.
Eden called out, "Okay everyone! The Magic Mirror and the screen are going to take a bit of a break right now. They need an hour or so to charge back up their magic, so please be patient and enjoy the snacks while you wait!". With her son Robin by her side, the two genies conjured plenty of snacks, both healthy and not so much. Fruits, candies, drinks, water and more were served as the citizens of Sennen, England and the royal parties waited for the Magic Mirror to regain some of its magical strength.
King Azad, Eric, King Oliver/Olujimi, King Mainard, Asce, King Kristoff, and also King Triton all thought at the same time, 'I wonder what is going on over there right now in Godzilla's realm, and how the others are doing…?'
~Back in the Toho universe~
Two Bell-407 helicopters had left Japan an hour ago, and was now flying over the Pacific Ocean. Down below, ships of various sizes and models were out and about, Japanese fisherman all ready to see what they could catch for the day. Since it was about 9:00 a.m., only about fifteen or so ships were out and about on the waters. In one of the choppers, it held the passengers of Miki, Anna, Elsa and Tracy. In the other chopper was Cinderella, Melody and Ariel. And the two little stowaways, Vidia and Silvermist in Tracy's hair. The girls had been in complete awe when they saw the large planes and other various air vehicles at G-Force Air Unit, proclaiming that they were 'metal birds', which in some cases was not far off.
Miki had chosen two Bell-407 helicopters for the trip, since they did get good mileage and would be capable of transporting them to the island where Burning Godzilla was close to. When they entered and the helicopters started off, the royal ladies shrieked in both delight at fright as the vehicle suddenly came to life in their view. When the chopper lifted off the ground and flew into the sky, all of the ladies were just so excited now to be in the air without the aid of magic! The Japanese psychic told them to buckle in tight and to enjoy the ride. Of course, she had to show them on how to buckle up in the first place.
Now, the two choppers were flying free and leaving the ships down below behind them. Elsa looked down, seeing the majestic and powerful ocean below them. She looked to Miki and asked, "Are we far away from the ships so that no one can see us?".
Miki answered, "I believe so. But, why do you ask?". The Ice Queen merely smiled at her before she undid the safety lock on her seatbelt, went to the helicopter and opened up the left side door! Everyone shirked in fright as the pressure change caused the copter to buckle and jiggle in the air for a bit, and the wind was now roaring over everything. Miki was about to demand on what Elsa was doing… than saw the Snow Queen just drop from the vehicle and plummet to the waters below!
Miki exclaimed, "NOOO! WHY DID SHE DO THAT!?". She was just panicked that her friend just did something like that. Her attention was then caught when her eyes spotted Vidia and Silvermist poking their heads out from Tracy's hair. Said fairies rushed out from Cinderella's daughter's hair, diving down with their wings flapping fast and letting gravity do most of the work.
Tracy exclaimed, "How did they get into my hair without me knowing?!". No one answered as many looked down to see Elsa free falling.
The Snow Queen had her eyes closed, enjoying the wind whipping through her face and the tang of sea air hitting her nose. She felt alive and free now, and with no more prying eyes… she decided to cut a bit loose! When she saw the water getting closer to her, she unleashed her ice powers! Snow and ice gathered around her feet, legs and midsection. A flurry of frozen water appeared, and when the queen looked to be about to hit water… she did a turn and was now FLYING over the water! The occupants in both choppers were stunned silly on what just occurred, but strangely enough Anna was not fazed at all. In fact, she had a patient smile on her face as she shook her head.
She whispered, "Sister, always doing something like this… and you call me the reckless one most of the time.". It was true. Back in the Disney universe, Elsa was really starting to have more control & fun with her ice abilities. On plenty of occasions, she would fly up high into the sky, drop back down to earth like a stone… than pull back up at the last moment to fly off safely and harmlessly. Needless to say, that caused many who really cared for her, including Azad & Anna, to have near-heart attacks. After a while, Anna and the others who knew Elsa well took her little daredevil flights in stride.
Many would say that Azad, Anna and the Arabian family had rubbed off on her sister in the adventurous department.
Elsa let out a cry of joy as she skimmed over the Pacific Ocean, her hand reaching out to touch and leave a little water wake as she continued to fly. Vidia and Silvermist appeared next to her, startling the woman of ice a little bit. The Fast Flying-talented pixie exclaimed, "Now that was truly amazing, Elsa! I think you broke your record by about 1,000 feet or so!". When on visits to the other kingdoms, Vidia and Elsa would often have sporting contests to see on who can outrace whom. Or in some cases, how far one could drop before activating their flight abilities.
Elsa smiled brilliantly and replied, "I think so too, Vidia! Come on, let's enjoy the time we have out here for a bit! I just love to fly right now with no eyes on me!". Vidia and the ice-user were now doing stunts, flips and tricks as they were having fun over the water. It seems their free-loving spirits were attracting some wildlife… a pod of orcas to be precise! Elsa had rarely seen the sea mammals in her realm, but when she did, the creatures were both plentiful and playful. In fact right now, this pod of orcas were leaping out and about near the magical human and the pixies.
Silvermist exclaimed, "Oh wow! I have heard of creatures like this from the other fairies that have duties across the sea, but never thought I actually see one!". Despite being a Water-talent fairy, Silvermist mostly worked on local, small stuff like rivers and lakes inland. Very rarely had she used her powers in the ocean, the exception being Neverland.
It was just than that Elsa realized that Vidia and Silvermist were with her, and not with Rapunzel. The lovely winter lady turned to the two and exclaimed, "Hey! Why are you two here instead of with Rapunzel?!". Both answered that they would answer that later on, but right now to just enjoy the fun they were having now. Elsa really wanted to know why the two fairies were here instead with the queen of Leylstad, but saw that they did have a point for now. So, the two resumed playing with the powerful apex predators of the sea.
As Elsa and her pixie friends were having fun down below, Miki was just in awe at what she had just witnessed right now. First the Snow Queen pulling off such a reckless stunt, than flying across the water with ice over her lower section, the two pixies that had stowed away in Tracy's hair, and now a pod of orcas having playful fun with the trio. She looked to her companions, more specifically at Anna. She asked in a shaky voice, "Is your sister always like this?".
Anna chuckled softly and answered, "No, not really. In fact, in the past she was very withdrawn and reluctant to use her powers. Now… it seems she really likes to cut loose and enjoy it now. Hehehehe… I believe myself, Azad and the others back in Agrabah are to blame for her new attitude. The others laughed lightly with the queen of Arendelle, they too loving this side of Elsa.
As Miki was looking down still in awe at the sight, little did she realize that a video camera was mounted under the side of the choppers. They were recording everything, both inside and outside of the vehicle! The pilots would check them out later, and also deliver the video cassettes to their superiors as was the normal procedure. The two flying units continued on their way to the chain of islands, with Elsa and the pixies directly underneath them as they flew around in delight.
~Back at G-Force Headquarters~
While the others were flying around in the Pacific Ocean, the rest had been learning much about the organization that had been created to counter Godzilla and other gigantic monsters. Alice, Regina, Cateline, Lady Beneditka, Rapunzel and the Twin Fairies had been shown the various rooms and levels of the facility. The remaining pixies were still in Rapunzel's hair, but had their heads peeking out so they could see and hear what was going on. Shoichi Tadao and Professor Fukazawa were showing the girls, and newcomer Kenichi, around as best they could. Said college boy was also talking with the ladies, getting to know their names and a bit about their past. Of course, he was blown away when he was told that they were from another universe entirely.
Cateline whispered to her Mountain troll friend, "It seems that the people of this age rely very much on this… technology thing. While it is fascinating and very much interesting… I feel that it's like a poor substitute of magic.". Lady Beneditka agreed with her companion, both finding that while the technological marvels of this world was truly fascinating, it lacked something that they couldn't quite put their fingers on completely. However, the others seemed to be getting a real kick out of seeing such machines and inventions. The group were about to see one last room before they would go to the Break Room to get a bit of lunch and rest up a bit. They soon passed by the same door that they came across earlier, the door that spoke of the mechanical weapons.
Alice paused in her step and called out, "Excuse me ummm… ah! Tadao-san, and Fukazawa-san. Can you please show us on what is in this room? It has gotten my curiosity since we passed by it earlier.".
Fukazawa answered, "I'm sorry, Miss Alice. But only authorized personnel are allowed in. I'm afraid we can't…". His words were cut off when Tadao said something.
The high-ranked employee of G-Force interrupted, "Hold on there, Professor. Now normally, what he said is correct. Only those with high clearance can go into that room, and those that do not MUST be escorted and supervised by one that has said status. But… since I do have clearance and I have been ordered to escort you all around G-Force…". He let the knowledge sink in, and the magical and royal beings caught on. He would be able to take them into the room, give his rank and all.
Fukazawa looked at the employee with a firm, disapproving look. He was really against it, since he felt the ladies were not ready to see what was beyond those doors. Kenichi spoke up, "Sir, are you sure we won't get in trouble?". He himself was very eager to see all of G-Force, including the areas that were intended for those of either high-rank, specialized skills, or both. But he also didn't want to do anything that would jeopardize his chances at staying at the institution.
Tadao smiled slightly and answered, "Oh, we might get into some trouble. But not too severe, and also I will be with you all. So if anything happens, most likely I'll take the blame. So… what do you all say?".
The girls looked at one another, all showing that they were curious on what was behind the room. They looked to the professor, who shook his head and silently told them that it was a bad idea to go venture into a place they had no business with. Kenichi, however, showed his eagerness on wanting to see what was behind the door. Regina looked to Tadao and answered, "Sir… we would like to see what is behind the door, please.".
The employee had a small, victorious smile on his face as he went towards the door to open it. He took out a card from his pocket and slid it into the card slider, and the device's light turned from red to green. A click was heard, showing that it was now unlocked. Tadao opened the door, addressing the ladies in first. Regina went in, and the others followed. Fukazawa was the last to enter, but he gave a very disapproving look to Tadao before going in. The man merely shrugged it off mentally, and went in before the door closed.
The door was connected to a long hallway, the company walking down for a bit and soon ending up in one of the large, underground bunkers that was part of G-Force. The room was very dark, no one being able to see anything. Tadao went to a light switch and flipped it on… and the ladies were treated to a very incredible sight! In front of them were mechanical marvels, flying machines and also robot designs that looked to be half-finished. The ladies walked around the room, their footsteps echoing in the large bunker. Tadao stated, "This is just one of many bunkers that lie underground in G-Force, where many scientists and engineers create and design machines where they can be tested out in the field. Unfortunately, this room we are in now is the Hold Room. This is the place where designs and ideas that didn't make the cut are stored here. The engineers, though, believe that their creations will function one day so instead of destroying them, we merely store them here for later use. If the day ever does come.".
The girls just nodded, not really paying attention to his words but looking at the machines that, in their view, were really well-designed. Alice and Regina were looking at two large, burnt objects that were side-by-side together. The Spanish-born woman pointed to them and asked Fukazawa, "Sir, what are these two large machines here?".
The professor answered, "Those are the old crafts that were used to try and defend the city against Godzilla some years ago. The first one on the left is called Super X, and the one on the right is its upgraded model, Super X-2. Both worked well against the monster, but didn't stand up very well in the end.". The women looked at the crafts, seeing the burnt marks and the metal scraps scattered near them. They imagined the battle that took place between the man-made ships and their bonded monster, Godzilla winning with his powerful breath and incredible physical strength.
The group continued onward into the large, spacious room. Cateline and Benedtika gasped loudly and the Fairy Godmother proclaimed, "Everyone, look at this!". The group jogged over to where they were… and saw a sight that blew their minds away! Before them was were truly gigantic machines, all busted up and broken but having a design and size that really took the breath away from the visitors from another universe. One had the shape and form of Godzilla himself, and the other looked to be a bird of sort with drill arms. They were all in pieces, some having burnt spots while some parts of the metal looked to be melted off. Lady Beneditka looked to Tadao and Fukazawa, asking, "What ARE those things? They almost look like Jet Jaguar, but not quite…". She had remembered the day years ago when Jet Jaguar turned giant-sized to fight Gigan and Space Godzilla back in their universe.
Fukazawa was the one who answered this time. He said, "These were machines, mechas to be more precise. Robots that looked to be replicas of animals and moved just like them, but under human control. The one on the right, that is called MechaGodzilla-2. The one on the left is called M.O.G.U.R.A. It's an acronym that stands for Mobile Operations Godzilla Universal Robot Aero-Type. G-Force built them to defend the nation against Godzilla.".
Rapunzel went towards the one that looked like Godzilla, remembering the story that Miki and the Twin Fairies told them yesterday on Rodan's demise. She touched the right metal leg, feeling the very cold metal that was smooth to the touch. She looked down to the Twin Fairies that was still in her other arm and whispered, "Is this the machine you spoke of? Is this what almost killed Godzilla, and also brought about Rodan's death?". Loll and Mora nodded their heads, and the queen of Leylstad turned look at Fukazawa and Tadao. Her face showed anger, not of the enraging kind but a subtle kind that showed she was not pleased at all.
Before she could say anything, Lady Beneditka was standing in front of the scrapped M.O.G.U.R.A. She looked to the two Japanese humans and inquired, "And what became of this… mecha? How did it meet this fate? And why does it look like it was torn in two?".
Tadao answered, "First off, this robot is the fusion of two machines; Land M.O.G.U.R.A and Star Falcon, two separate vehicles that could combine into one to form the one you see before you.". That piece of information surprised the visitors, for they had never heard of two large objects combining as one to become one unique form.
He continued, "This mecha was actually used to help Godzilla some time ago, against a very powerful space monster named Space Godzilla. The beast was destroyed, but in the process so was the machine. Godzilla and M.O.G.U.R.A actually had to work together to stop that thing, so it was surprising that the saurian was actually beneficial to us.". It got the attention of the girls as they had seen and fought against the celestial saurian years ago, and also brought relief that the monster was indeed destroyed for good. They were also glad to hear that Godzilla and the people united against a common enemy.
Kenichi looked around, as if he was expecting to find something else. After a while of fruitless searching, he went over to Tadao and Fukazawa and inquired, "Say, where is Mecha-King Ghidorah? I heard, and saw, on what happened the time when it arrived as King Ghidorah. So, where is it?". The young college boy had heard on what happened some time ago when the Futurians arrived in 1992, and tricked the G-Force and the Japanese government into going to the past to end the original Godzilla. The beings did that, but also created a gigantic three-headed golden dragon monster that went by the name of King Ghidorah, the result of the fusion of three docile creatures called Dorats. The small golden animals were changed and fused by the same atomic testing that should have changed Godzilla, back when he was a natural Godzillasaurus.
The Futurians controlled the monster and would have destroyed Japan, but was sabotaged by one of their own, a young Japanese woman named Emmy. Not only that, the Godzillasaurus that they moved to another location in the past received massive amount of radiation that changed him into something more powerful and fierce than before. In other words, the Futurians just created an even-more powerful King of the Monsters that emerged in 1985. Godzilla emerged to fight King Ghidorah, who really gave the saurian a run for his money as the golden three-headed dragon was his equal in every way! The battle was long, but Godzilla won by blasting away the middle head with his blue Radiation Death Breath attack!
However, this Godzilla was more savage than his previous form. After destroying King Ghidorah, and also eliminating the bad Futurians in their time craft, he started to destroy Tokyo! In his view, the humans had invaded his home and had defiled it with their large buildings and such. It was then that Emmy arrived, back from the future and bringing with her an ally that would try to stop Godzilla… Mecha-King Ghidorah! The monster that was killed in the present was still intact in the future, and Emmy convinced the government powers to rebuild the monster into a cyborg-mecha! Godzilla and the mechanical marvel fought with one another, but it seemed that even future technology was no match for Godzilla's power, toughness and healing ability. His fierce tenacity of spirit was also something to behold, as no matter what Mecha-King Ghidorah threw at him, he was not going to give in!
Emmy than used Mecha-King Ghidorah to use special grapple cables to grab, hoist and carry Godzilla out of the city and into the sea. Once she saw that Godzilla was breaking free, she escaped from the machine and ejected just in time as the saurian breaks free and both he and the cyborg plunge into the sea! The King of the Monsters roared as he got up, believing that he won the fight against his adversary and moved to deeper waters.
G-Force and the Japanese military & government salvaged and recovered the body of Mecha-King Ghidorah. They studied it, ran tests on the body, and also stripped the organic part clean from the mechanical parts. The mechanical parts and data were used to created MechaGodzilla-2! The organic parts were stripped clean, the golden scales taken while the carcass was disposed of deep in the sea in the Pacific Ocean. The scales were harder than diamond, according to analysis, and also were able to conduct energy quite efficiently and effectively than anything else. Said scales were in a high-security vault, waiting for the right time to be used in a manner beneficial to the military.
Tadao was about to fabricate something when an announcement rang over the intercom. Speakers were posted at every major site in G-Force, so everyone heard it. The voice of General Isao spoke out, "ATTENTION, ATTENTION! THE MAIN COMPUTERS AT COMMAND CENTER HAVE BEEN REPAIRED! WILL THE TOUR GROUP LED BY SHOICHI TADAO PLEASE REPORT TO THE COMMAND CENTER IMMEADATLY!". Fukazawa had checked his watch, and indeed two hours had passed since they started to the tour.
The professor called out, "Okay everyone, we're going back to the Command Center now! So please, follow me and stay close together.". The girls were a bit disappointed that their tour was cut short, but they followed Fukazawa out. As they left, Zarina peeked out to see that Tadao was now talking on a cell phone that was in his hand.
The Alchemist fairy had taught herself to read lips some time ago, finding that being able to read lips instead of merely hearing with her own ears was quite useful. She 'read' from the man, "Hello… yes. Yes! Indeed… the flames of mistrust is burning… of course. Yes, stick with them… gather any and all data… understood, Mistress. Tadao out.". The employee put away his cell phone, looking a little bit more satisfied for some reason as he walked to catch up with the others.
Zarina thought, 'This human… I feel he is bad news. Bad news indeed. But with no solid proof… just have to keep my guard up and find some.'.
~At the Command Center~
It had taken two hours, but the computers were now back up and fully running throughout the place. Computers were rebooted, data restored and saved, files backed-up and everything running like clockwork once more. The Map was no longer two dimensional, but now a 3-D spinning globe that was transmitting data to the terminal computers. The girls, Kenichi, Fukazawa and Tadao entered and were greeted by a stern-faced general. Kenichi inquired, "Sir, have you gotten information on where Miki and the others are right now?".
The higher-rank officer replied, "We're just getting the video back in place now. Satellite imaging is almost up, and we should get a reading on where they are at now.". The visitors did not know anything at all about the jargon that was spoken, but luckily Fukazawa explained to them in simple terms that they almost had the location of where the others were at, and that a device from space would show them images on the screen. The ladies nodded, still amazed at the reach of technology in this world.
A technician spoke up, "Sir! We have visual coming up… now! And from the data I'm seeing, they are at the outward most island that is near Okinawa". The map on the screen changed to show the island, and the two choppers that were resting there. They seemed to be at a refueling station of sort, but Elsa and the others were not around.
General Isao inquired firmly, "What is the situation there?". After a moment, one of the employees answered his question. It seemed that the choppers were running low on fuel, and had just arrived there on the island. Lucky for them, there was a refueling station on the island they were at, so they stopped to recharge the machines, so to speak. The ladies left the vehicles to explore the island, and were currently on a beach nearby.
Suddenly, a female worker sounded off, "Sir! Incoming thermal data shows that… Godzilla has changed course! He was on his way to Japan, but it seemed he changed course quickly! He's… he's heading towards the island where Miki and the others are at!". The map changed again to show a green & black layout of the world. The black area was the sea, and the green areas signified land mass, and in the sea was a capital G symbol. It stood for Godzilla, and the monster indeed had changed course. A red-dotted path behind the G showed his previous course, and it did show that her made a right turn and was heading towards Okinawa!
General Isao commanded, "Tell Miki to get out of there! Also to scramble the fighters to…!". He was interrupted by Lady Beneditka, who brought forth her axe magically and slammed the end part down hard! It caused a small but noticeable tremor that got the attention of everyone, who froze in place and looked at the beautiful but dangerous Mountain troll matriarch.
The magical being looked to all, than to the general. She spoke with authority, "Do not panic, sir. Do you not see? Do you not understand? Godzilla has changed course, as you spoke, because he is heading towards those he trusts. Those he loves. He is going there to see his bonded, and I am very much sure that he will not cause trouble to the land. Especially if they are on it.".
Kenichi asked, "How will you be sure?".
Lady Beneditka answered, "My heart and instincts tell me this, child. Also, there is no need to tell them that he is coming. I believe… they already know this. They knew before we did.".
All of the people, humans and non-humans alike, looked to the monitor as they saw the G symbol getting closer and closer to the island Miki and the others were on. The screen soon changed to show a view of the beautiful island interior and of the sea, and saw the ladies waiting right at the beach!
~At Okinawa~
The choppers were down at a service station, one that was run by the military and G-Force, getting refueled and ready to continue the trip down to where Godzilla was seemingly located at. About fifteen minutes earlier before landing, Elsa had flown over to wait for them on the beach. Vidia and Silvermist were with her, perched on her hair as they waited. The trio had been having fun with the marine life, until all of them seemed to panic and swim away fast from the area. Silvermist told them that even though she was not an animal expert like Fawn, she knew that animals left when they knew something was nearby that scared them all.
When two helicopters landed, the girls got out from the vehicles and over to where Elsa was at. The Ice Queen grinned at them, asking what took them so long. Anna gave her sister a patient smile… than exploded by declaring that if ever pulled a stunt like that again out of the blue, she would make sure to cut off her ice powers for a week! And she had the ability too, especially after finding out that Genie & Eden could create something with their magic to cut off her ice abilities. Elsa held up her hands in defense, saying that she would not try anything like that again.
She than whispered under her breath, "Until the next time.".
Miki told them that they were in Okinawa now, and it would be some time until the choppers were back up on full with fuel. Ariel than suggested that they go down to the beach and have a bit of fun before going back to work. They all agreed to this, and the group went down from the helicopter pad to the beach, where the ladies soaked in the sand and surf. Emerging from Melody's pockets were the mice quartet; Filimor, Estée, Ilbert and Plaisance. The daughter of Ariel forgot that her friends were there, and the group was now really enjoying playing around in the sand and getting a bit wet by the gentle rolling surf.
Alas, their fun was soon cut short as Melody, Tracy, Ariel, Cinderella, Anna and Elsa paused in their play. Miki was wondering on why they were now frozen as they were… until a strong psychic vibe hit her senses good! Vidia and Silvermist, who were helping the furry companions out in building a sand castle, paused as their magical senses told them that something was coming their way.
Something immensely powerful.
Anna said softly, "Do you all feel that? Is it…? It is! He's coming!". They all nodded, as they felt the immense spirit and strength of their bonded companion. The raw power of the King of the Monsters!
Miki commented, "It seems that he has changed course, and is heading towards us. How is that possible?". They all looked in the distance, a bit to the southwest, and saw what appeared to be a column of steam streaking towards them. One might say it was like an active volcano was actually moving towards them!
Ariel answered, "He sensed us coming. He felt us, and he changed course. To see us! I feel it!". Indeed, they all felt it as their body heat was steadily rising. Not to dangerous levels, but the girls felt it nonetheless. Their magical items activated, forming an invisible field of magic that would shield and protect them from Godzilla's power and lessen the effect the bond they shared with said saurian.
Miki looked to see the steam trail getting closer and closer to the island, than turned around to go back to the refueling station. She ran as fast as her legs carried her, wanting to warn the pilots and tell them to not do anything hasty.
The six bonded women of Godzilla stood their ground, ready to meet a friend they had missed for so long. Vidia and Silvermist stood by them, the mice as well as they were not going to leave their human friends at all.
The steam stopped close to the island, and from the spot arose a bubbling, frothing foam! One that the visitors from another universe knew all too well! The bubbling foam was churning like mad now, in a frenzy like never before! Vidia whispered, "Now I know why the sea creatures left in a hurry earlier. They felt he was coming.". Arising from the steam and foam was the burning form of the King of the Monsters! A roar filled the air as the saurian rose from the sea, his body burning bright red like a volcano with immense power and strength!
Burning Godzilla had arrived!
(Author's Notes: And… cut! That is it for this chapter! Whew… it was a bit of a long one to write, but it was well worth it! Again, I give praise and thanks to God and Jesus for giving me the drive and conviction, and the energy to write this chapter! I have to say, writing chapters this long takes it out of you for a bit. But all worth it!
So how do you like this one? Alice, Regina, Rapunzel, Cateline, Lady Beneditka and the remaining pixies have seen the holding area where the machines of old are kept. The ones designed to take out Godzilla in the past! I did this because, well… much later on, they will play a good role in the story! I'm keeping a spoiler here, so you'll just have to trust me and wait! Hehehe… Also, it seems that Zarina is more suspicious of Tadao now but can only keep her guard up since she has no solid proof of him committing an evil deed. And also, the six bonded ladies of Godzilla truly show that their link to him is strong and accurate!
In the next chapter, see what happens when Burning Godzilla finally meets the ones he has missed for some time! For what occurs next… it's a surprise! Also, expect to see some action from Godzilla Junior as well! Also, to answer some questions from the reviewers. To Kaiju Avenger, the reason I do not have a story artwork for this particular story is that I do not have one. The previous artwork pieces that I put for the other chapters, they were done by a very talented friend of mine named Neshma Hernandez. The originals were scanned in, and also now kept safe in frames. So if any one wants to create an artwork of my third and final novel here, they are more than welcome to it. If they want me to use it, please discuss it with me via Private Messaging please.
And also to Death Battle, there is a reason why not so many monsters made the cut here. Too many characters in one story is not good, and I already have my hands full with the current ones as is. And while I like your enthuasim and energy, sad to say that the only monsters that will appear officially here are the ones marked down at the beginning of the novel. Any others will be mere mentions or cameos.
And to the ones that state what the Disney girls will think when they hear of what happened to Shindo from Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah? Well… I will keep that in mind during my writing. It may, or may not, show later on. Just have to trust me on this and wait.
Now for the questions:
1.) What would you be thinking after witnessing the bit of magic that the six Disney ladies showed when they used their bond to locate Burning Godzilla?
2.) What do you think the ladies back in the Disney realm are thinking after witnessing women in Japan doing military exercising and training?
3.) How would you feel after seeing Elsa's little stunt in dropping out of the helicopter and flying about, and you were the one who taught her to cut loose with her ice abilities like that?
4.) What kind of advice would you give to the others concerning about Tadao and also the mechas & machines they just saw?
5.) What kind of snacks or meals would you serve to the others who are watching back in the Disney realm?
6.) And finally… what would your thoughts be upon seeing Burning Godzilla rising up, with his bonded close by?
R&R, no flames, enjoy and leave long reviews!)
