Monsters and Magic: Burning Finale
By: DJ Rodriguez
(Author's Notes: Hi everyone! How are you all doing? Well, I hope. Still a bit bummed that the usual people who leave reviews have not reviewed the Toho and Disney epilogue. Hope they are alright… I pray that they are okay and safe.
Before anything else, would like to thank God and Jesus Christ for once again helping me out with this novel! Thank you Lord for giving me the courage, conviction, guidance and strength I have needed in order to really close the chapter here of my three-part novel series! I would not have even come remotely this far if it were not for you! So Jesus, all praise and glory go to you! Thank you for everything once again Lord!
This is it… the LAST chapter of this novel and series! The Monsters and Magic series will officially be over, and those that want to do sequels or spin-offs of this series has my blessings and permission. Just a couple of things I request if you do want to do that. One, do homework first on locations and such. I had to check maps, look at Disney & Toho history, check up names that are related to nationality and such, and more. The names I gave to my OC creations I got from Names-20000 site, and they were related to the places where they came from. The second thing is be very dedicated to it! Have the courage and drive to really work on it one-hundred percent! Like in a song I heard from Carman: Yo Kidz!... ninety-nine and a half just won't do!
Also, I would like to thank the reviewers DRAGONDAVE45 and Darkness Rissing! Their reviews and suggestions have actually helped me in changing the epilogue here, in a good way I believe. Also, to answer some reviewers questions as well. To Guest, I apologize but I will not be making any Disney/Ultraman crossovers. While your idea does have merit, I sadly say that I have no idea about the Ultraman series and thus will not be making one.
To Godzillafan876, this will be the last I write of the Monsters and Magic series. I am following the path of the truly great movies of my time in the 1980s and 1990s, doing a trilogy instead of pushing my luck as with some movies and novels these days. I will gladly though approve of any who wish to do a sequel or spin-off of the series in their own way.
Also, just want to apologize also to fans of the Godzilla, Mothra & King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack movie. Thanks to a fellow writer by the name of Asura94, I learned that the Godzilla in that movie… his spirit body was taken over by the fallen Japanese soldiers of the Pacific War. And that is why he came back. I have to admit, I only saw that movie once and that was long ago. I got turned off by it for two reasons; that Godzilla was a bad monster, and that King Ghidorah was turned into a good monster.
Asura94 explained to me what happened in said movie, but even though it happened in the official movie, Godzilla here in my novel has earned a place among the heroes in Heaven. And that is the way it's going to stay!
I really do hope that my series here gets recognized by TV Tropes, and also hoping to see someone do a YouTube video review about any of my three novels! Again, just wishful thinking on my part but I can still hope.
In any case, here is the Final epilogue to Burning Finale! Enjoy!
I do not own Godzilla or any of the monsters, characters or places that officially belong to Toho. Nor do I own any of the characters or places that officially belong to the Walt Disney Company. I do own my OC creations, and most of the songs used so far in the novel. If I use a song that is by another artist/artists, I will give him/her/them their just credit and dues as it is their right.
Now, on with the novel!)
Finale Epilogue
The year was 2014 in the Disney universe, and two extraordinary young women were on the move in the country of France during the evening twilight hour of the day. Lily Vela and Isabel Molina were out on their own once again while their families were taking it easy in one of the quaint little French towns that was nearby. Lily turned to her cousin and stated, "I hope we find more of these secret treasures that the royals hid from the world! I'm getting so excited!". Isabel replied that she too was pumped full of adventurous energy, wanting to find more pictures, treasures and books that the bonded of the legendary monsters left behind many years ago.
The Molinas and Velas had opted to go by ship to the Netherlands from Norway, than travel from there to Germany via land travel, and then France. Lily and Isabel had managed to find the secret area in Rapunzel's old castle in the Netherlands, and while in Germany managed to find another secret place in Snow White's home!
The Molina woman said, "I hope we find more of those parts that the monsters left behind for their bonded! So far, we have seen the large skin cells of Godzilla in the Marcel castle… we saw those two dorsal spines of his in Anna & Elsa's castle… the light green skin cells of Little Godzilla in Rapunzel's castle… and lastly the two large golden scales of Mothra in Snow White's castle.".
The duo could not take the items that the kaiju had given to their bonded when they left the Disney universe long ago, but they did take the large tome books that they found there. When they found another one of the books in Rapunzel's secret area, it glowed and merged with the one they found in Anna & Elsa's castle. The same thing occurred in Germany when the book written in Snow White's and Kathrin's point of view was bathed in magical energies before merging with the item they took from the Marcel castle. Lily and Isabel still kept the discoveries to themselves, wanting to wait for the right time & when they found the remaining novels to tell their families and the world of what they found.
Now, the two adventurous young women were walking towards a tall castle that was situated on a tall hill that overlooked the village that their families were staying at for the time being. Lily looked at the abode and whispered, "Wow… despite the damage that was done to it, it's still standing tall and majestic-looking.". The castle they stood before was once the home of Cinderella and Asce Charming, once a shining beacon of what happened when dreams came true and following the path of light and right. Now, it was still standing but a majority of the structure was badly damaged. The home of the Charming family withstood World War I and II, and the elements of both nature and time.
The duo made their way to the door entrance, opening it slowly and carefully. Now while they were adventurous and daring, they were not reckless or foolish. Their parents had taught and showed them the fine lines of everything, including the difference between being courageous and foolish. The door's hinges creaked loudly as it opened, making the kind of sound that one would hear in the classic days of suspenseful films. Dust and debris lightly sprinkled over the two as they pushed the door open, looking inside to see the long hallway that stretched towards the Main Chamber. Lily took out a flashlight from her backpack, turning it on and shining the light towards the walkway.
Isabel and her cousin saw many pictures lining up the wall, displaying the royal family members of the Charming lineage. They saw painted portraits of those that were of royal blood on the right, some goofy-looking while others looked distinguished and respected. On the left side were portraits of those related to any of the royal members.
When they made it to the end of the hallway and to the Main Chamber, before them was a large area with stairs that were dirty and broken. Isabel whispered, "Wow… I bet this place was amazing in its heyday.". In their minds, they did not see the present-day castle. They saw the pristine, well-kept abode that was most likely beautiful and a sight to behold! Not extravagant or over-done like what some would believe it to be, but a home that was full of light, love and laughter in a way that was timeless.
The two explorers made their way up the stairs, wanting to explore the upper levels first before going back downstairs to search the rest of the deteriorated castle. Isabel and Lily found the Servants Quarters and some rooms that were used for storing clothing and such. Soon, they found a room at the end of the hall that had a golden plaque on it and in bold black letters was Tracy Charming. Lily said, "This must be the room of the daughter of Cinderella, from the book we read at Sennen! Come on, let's go in!".
Isabel and Lily opened the door, and found a room that had a large bed with lovely canopy curtains on it. While the furniture looked worn away due to age and nature, the ladies thought it was still wonderful. Various other furniture such as dressers were in the place, spared by robbers who wanted to make a quick buck in ransacking the castle but found the girl decorum not too satisfying. Lily saw something under the bed, pulling it out and seeing that it was a Godzilla plushie toy! She squealed in delight at her discovery, Isabel also displaying a very pleased face at seeing the old toy. Isabel exclaimed, "I knew it! She did have a toy, same as the one in the Marcel castle! Come on, let's check the closet!". Her cousin nodded, putting the toy saurian under her arm so it could be securely with her.
The duo went into the closet, the flashlight shining in the darkness. Nothing remained in the confinement space, all except a large box that had been hidden carefully in the corner. This one was spared from being taken by robbers. Isabel bent down and dragged the box out, seeing that there was no lock on it which was a relief for her since neither of them had any tools to either pick or destroy something like that. Lily kneeled down and opened the lid, and inside were drawings and pictured that looked to be drawn by a child. She carefully and slowly took out the drawings, shining the flashlight on it and seeing drawings of a certain King of the Monsters on it.
Isabel kneeled down behind her to see, and a smile was on both of their faces. She said, "Now this is worth more than gold or jewels! These are memories, and more proof that something extraordinary happened in this world!". Lily nodded, than stood up and started to pack the drawings carefully in her cousin's backpack. She put the pictures in with love and care, making sure that they didn't get too crinkled or bent inside the protective gear. When it was done, she zipped it up and let her cousin rise up.
Lily stated, "Come on! We got more of the castle to explore!".
For thirty minutes, the very energetic young ladies explored the upper remains of Cinderella's castle, looking through the top parts thoroughly before finally coming back downstairs to explore the ground-level places. They found some interesting and cool items and objects there, but sadly nothing more that spoke of Godzilla or the other kaiju. Lily and Isabel were hoping to find more on the ground area of the abode.
The two walked through one of the doors underneath the upper levels, and soon found themselves in the Throne Room. Lily and Isabel flashed their lights over the place, seeing the room still well-kept and in order but very dusty due to no one coming to maintain the area. Miss Molina and Miss Vela saw portrait that were still hung on the wall, showing the Charming family. The ladies blushed slightly at seeing Asce Charming in his prime, and very much in awe at seeing Cinderella who looked very beautiful with her kind eyes and warm smile. Even though the duo knew that she was not of royal blood by birth, she had the heart and spirit of nobility that was timeless and classic. Something that was rare in their world now.
The young ladies looked to the thrones, both partially destroyed but saw that they were still in good condition. The one on the left was slightly higher than the one on the right, indicating that it was the King's seat while the slightly small one was reserved for the Queen. Lily inquired, "Do you think the thrones hold the secret, like at Elsa & Anna's castle in Arendelle?". Isabel replied that there was only one way to find out, and the two went up to the seats of royal authority & power. The duo started to gingerly touch the surface areas of the thrones, wanting to see if they could find a pressure switch or something similar to that. Isabel's hand soon touched a spot behind the Queen's throne, and Lily's hand found something yielding on the back of the King's seat.
Isabel looked at her cousin and spoke, "On the count of three. One… two… three!". The duo pushed the secret spots together at the same time, and the middle of the floor opened up to reveal a hidden stairway that spiraled downward into the earth!
The eyes of the two young women were shining with excitement, anticipation and eagerness as they saw yet another secret reveal itself just for them! Lily squealed in delight and softly exclaimed, "I knew it! I knew there was something about those thrones! Come Lils, let's go check it out!". She quickly but also carefully ran down the stairs with her cousin following close on her heels.
It was a long way down, the spiral stairs taking them deep within the earth. After a few minutes of descending down, the duo finally hit bottom. They turned their flashlights to the darkness before them, not seeing much because of the lack of light. While their devices were good, they were not adequate enough to really pierce a veil of darkness this deep. Isabel asked, "Hey cousin, you see something that might help us to see through this pitch darkness?". Lily looked around with her flashlight until she spotted a torch on the wall near their location. She went over to touch it… and immediately when her fingers made contact with the object, the whole room was soon bathed in light! Torches that were set up in various sprung to life, a warm orange glow banishing the darkness and making everything visible! Miss Vela and Miss Molina were surprised by the event, but soon relieved smiles where on their faces.
Lily commented, "Wow! This magic stuff is pretty impressive! Much better than seeing it in movies!". Isabel agreed with her cousin, and the two looked around to see that they were in a large circular room that had two hallways that led to different areas. They noticed that on the stone walls that encircled the place they were in had portraits, paintings that were of the Charming family! Lily found another picture of Cinderella, but in an outfit she knew could NOT have come from any part of Europe a long time ago. The picture had the blonde beauty wearing a light blue kimono with a deep blue sash around her midsection, the kimono having etchings of white stars all around it. It was like she was wearing a piece of Heaven itself!
The Vela woman exclaimed in confusion, "What in the-? Is that a kimono, like from Japan?! How is it that Cinderella is wearing one?!". She also noticed that the Cinderella in the portrait looked older, more mature than the one back in England.
Isabel remarked, "If you think that is strange, check out the portrait of Tracy here! And look at what she is wearing!". Lily looked to where her cousin was staring at, and saw Tracy as the adult she turned out to be. Different than the one they saw back in Sennen. The daughter of Cinderella and Asce was wearing a light-green kimono with a deep-orange sash belt, and on the silky garment were small orange etchings of cute woodland animals on it.
Lily commented, "Okay, now this is getting strange! It looks like they are wearing authentic Japanese kimonos… but that's impossible! According to my knowledge of history, even though Europe did do trade with China and other Asian and Middle Eastern countries back in the old days, the trade didn't extend to Japan! And even back then, Japan didn't make clothing for any outsiders to wear!".
Isabel remarked, "This mystery is getting more interesting by the minute! What do you think on how this came to be, Lils?".
The Vela woman looked away from the portrait, towards the two entrances that were apart from one another. One on the left, one on the right. She turned her attention to the hallway on the left, than to the right. She pointed towards the latter and replied, "I think our answers might be down that path, Izzy. Let's go and check it out!". Nodding with her in agreement, the adventurous duo walked slowly towards the entrance towards the right. As they went in, the torches that were inside the hallway came to life as fire danced upon the ancient light fixtures. Lily and Isabel drew up their courage and went further down the hallway.
When they emerged in the next room, what they saw took their breath away.
They were in another vast circular chamber, with a large statue of Godzilla in the middle! All around them were not only portraits, but books on a well-designed bookshelf and objects that were sealed in glass cases! In one's view, it was like a miniature museum of sort. Lily and Isabel saw portraits of the women that were bonded to Godzilla, all in elaborate Japanese clothing that really stunned them. And also there was small portraits in crafted frames of the Charming mice, both in their usual wear and the clothing they got from the Toho universe. Along with the mice were pictures of Tinkerbell and her companions, one together as a group while the rest of the pictures had the individual pixies by themselves.
The Vela and Molina's minds were reeling on what they were seeing, trying to make any sense out of it all but nothing solid coming to mind.
In the cases, they saw the kimonos that Cinderella and Tracy wore in the portraits! The beautiful articles of clothing were well-preserved within the glass case, looking as new as they day they were made. And in the other glass cases that were put near the walls around the circular room were the clothing that the Charming women purchased in the Toho realm, which again surprised Lily and Isabel since they saw that these were modern-day clothing! Isabel stated, "Okay… my head is now spun off its axis and my brain is going around like Sonic in the Sonic Spinball game Uncle DJ has! What is going on?!".
Lily answered, "I'm just as confused and amazed like you are, cousin! In fact… take a look at the books here!". She was now at the bookshelf, taking down one of the books and flipping through it.
What she was seeing was a copy of the manuscripts that Cateline had brought back to the Disney universe many years ago. Flipping through the pages, she saw the pictures of the other kaiju! Isabel joined her, and soon the two were seeing pictures and information on each of the giant monsters that inhabited the Toho universe! The duo were amazed to see creatures like Hedorah, Kamacuras (GiaMantis), Kumonga (Spiga) and more. They were also perplexed by the names, and also the dates that showed up on the documents. According to them, they were dates that showed it was set in the future! And also they were wondering what G-Force stood for, the name shown in many of the pages. They also discovered the original copies, which displayed the text in Japanese kanji!
They also saw a stand that showed what appeared to be blueprints of a statue that, according to the information on the thick paper, was quite large. The statue showed the four monsters Godzilla, Mothra, Rodan and Anguirus! The saurian was standing tall with a fierce look on his face, not roaring but showing that he was not going to back down from anything or anyone. Mothra was shown in both her forms, the caterpillar-form on Godzilla's right leg & the moth form with her wings spread out and above Godzilla with two little women on her head. On Godzilla's left side was Anguirus, the spike-shelled warrior having his maw opened and looking like he was ready to pounce. On his shell was Rodan, the pteranodon having his wings spread out as his beak was open as if screeching. The picture was very detailed and crafted, specific measurements and such shown in the blueprints.
The statue was made long ago in Sennen, at the place where the four landed in so long ago when they first arrived in the Disney universe. Alas though, the planet had went through World War I and II, and the Axis-powered Germans that tried to invade England soil in the second World War had destroyed the statue thinking it was something bad.
Isabel closed one of the books and muttered, "Lils… I need to just take a bit of a break… and just absorb on what we just unearthed…". She was wobbling a bit, her mind just unhinged at the moment as she walked away from the bookshelf. Lily joined her, also wanting to take a bit of a breather away from the things that were just shaking the very foundations of logic.
The duo took a deep breath, letting everything out until they looked at the statue of Godzilla that was in the center of it all. Miss Vela and Miss Molina saw that something was different from the statue that they saw in both Arendelle and Sennen. The statue was of marble, very well crafted and detailed as the ones who made the amazing piece of art with much dedication, care and careful design. It was really tall, easily past ten feet. Lily and Isabel saw that this version of Godzilla was again different than the ones in the other kingdoms, for they saw bulging splotches on a majority of his body and the look in his eyes was more feral and savage than ever before! His maw was opened up to show the razor sharp double-set teeth in the lower and upper jaw areas, and it seemed like he was roaring.
Lily whispered in awe, "Is that… really Godzilla? What happened to him?". Isabel answered that she had no idea, and just absorbed both the sheer raw power and strength that seemed to just pour out from this version of the King of the Monsters. She did spot writing that was on the base of the statue and read it out loud. It showed: Here is Burning Godzilla, a being whose radiated power was equal to his heart! Unspeakable power, unstoppable fury & unbreakable will! God bless him and those who knew him!
Isabel thought out loud, "Burning Godzilla? How did he earn that name?".
A soft, graceful feminine voice called out from all around, "It is when we saw how he absorbed too much power, dearies.". The two young women jumped up slightly, yelping in surprise and a bit of fright from the voice that spoke. They looked around everywhere frantically, trying to find the one who spoke.
Lily yelled out, "Hey! Who are you?! Where are you?! Show yourself!".
Her demands were answered when in front of them was a sparkle of stars that just seemed to appear in mid-air in front of them. The duo gasped in surprise and stood frozen to the spot, the sparkles coming together with more that seemed to appear from thin air. The magical lights soon started to take shape in the form of a woman… which was Fairy Godmother Cateline! Lily and Isabel were now gob-smacked upon seeing the being they remembered seeing back in Ariel's castle, the motherly and elderly magical being smiling at the two.
Isabel said softly, "You… Y-You're the fairy godmother… Cateline… right?".
Said being nodded and replied, "That I am, dear ones. I have to say, it is simply delightful to see how far you two have come in finding some of the secrets that the others left behind so many years ago!".
Lily inquired, "You mean… you mean you have been watching us? For how long? And why?".
Cateline answered, "Ever since you two found Ariel and Melody's secret chamber some days ago. Myself and the other magical beings who were there when Godzilla and his monster companions first arrived to our universe had set up a special ward magic that would alert us if those worthy had found the hidden chambers. Once I heard it go off, I used my magic to see you two and what you did. I have to say, you and Isabel here are certainly brave and wise.".
Isabel stated, "Thank you. But, can you answer us on why you have you been watching us?".
The magical motherly being answered softly, "Well… we have been hoping to find someone that would be worthy to find what myself and the rest of us hid back then so long ago. In hindsight, it was wise of us to gather up and hide everything that was linked to Godzilla and the others. The wars that have been started in the past years destroyed many historical things, and people started to forget about the amazing events & miracles that happened that linked us with Godzilla and the other titanic monsters.". Lily and Isabel knew that what she said made sense, as many nations throughout the world went through the Industrial Revolution and started to try and outdo the other in many areas.
And when World War I and II started up, it brought in an era where many objects and artifacts of great value were either destroyed, looted or defiled.
Cateline continued, "We hoped that someone who is both wise AND smart to find the hidden chambers, and with hearts strong and sure. Ones that were full of love, peace, joy, discipline, self-control, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness and gentleness. The Fruits of the Spirit, which I believe you two know about.". Lily and Isabel nodded their heads, a vast majority of their families strongly tied to Christianity and following the faith.
The fairy godmother finished, "Myself and the others hoped that by the finder's good judgement and faith, the hidden parts of history… our past will rise up and show the world that there is indeed more out there than we know. Something greater and wonderful than even the most wild of imaginations can even fathom! And I believe you two are the ones who can make that happen.".
Miss Molina and Miss Vela now fully realized that they were chosen, in a way, to help bring the hidden parts of an incredible past back to be seen in the present! And in a good way where hopefully, others can experience something fantastic and worthwhile than found in anything else.
Lily looked to the wise and patient woman and said, "T-Thank you for answering our questions… and also for your vote of confidence in us, in bringing back something that the world sadly lost track of long ago.".
Cateline smiled gently and replied, "You are welcome, my dear. I also believe that my confidence in you and your cousin Isabel is well founded. And for that… I wish to show you something that is hidden and can only be opened by me.". The two ladies looked to see the elderly magic-user walk past them and towards a section of wall that was cleared of any items in the entire room. She pulled her wand out of thin air, the same way she did many years ago when she first revealed herself to Cinderella. She formed a small smile on her face upon seeing the surprised looks on Lily and Isabel, glad to see that the duo's innocence was still within them.
She turned her attention back to the wall in front of her and chanted, "Room with contents handled with care, time to reveal yourself for maidens so fair. The secret is no longer needed on this day, so open yourself to us I say! Show the secrets I reveal to these two at the end of… Bibbidi… Bobbidi… Boo!". Cateline pointed her wand at the wall at the end of her spell, and a stream of magic erupted from her item and struck the wall! Isabel and Lily gasped upon seeing real magic being done, sparkles of stars covering a large section of the wall before being absorbed into it… and the rocks parting like a gate! The room shuddered a little as the rocky wall opened up, the two mortals a bit nervous as this happened. It only lasted for a moment, but it was still something for the duo.
Cateline smile still stood as she saw the ladies peer nervously into the darkened room. She urged gently, "Go on dearies, go on. I believe what you may find in there to be pretty amazing.". Lily and Isabel looked to her, than to one another before nodding their heads and venturing inside the hidden chamber. They took one step inside of it when torches once again sprang to life as light flooded the area. The cousins walked more into the chamber, soon walking into a room that was fairly large but this time rectangular rather than circular like in the other rooms. The ancient light devices inside the room came to life once more, casting the darkness aside so that the two could see more.
And what they saw really took their breath away!
Inside the rectangular room were three large paintings, each done to a scale that matched those at the famous art museum called the Louvre in Paris! One stood on the left, another on the right, and the largest one in that almost took up the entire section of the wall in the middle. Each painting was done with extreme love, care, detail and study. It would appear that those working in the art department in the old days really took immense pride, of the good kind, in their work.
Lily looked to her right to see what appeared to be pictures of constellations, two to be precise. She studied the stars formations, and gasped when she saw that the stars formed the shape of Rodan and Anguirus! She exclaimed, "Izzy, look! This picture here shows Anguirus and Rodan as constellations, as stars!".
Isabel replied, "I was going to say the same thing with this portrait! It shows Godzilla and Mothra, but as star constellations too!". The duo than turned their gaze to the largest portrait in the room… and their jaws dropped in sheer awe and wonder at the picture before them.
The portrait had a frame of solid gold around it with silver bands wrapped around the bars in a spiral of sort. The painting before them showed a fierce battle going on between titans in a ruined city! On the far left side was Destroyah, masterfully detailed as he was towering and covered in red and purple flames. It made his gargoyle-like appearance more demonic and intimidating, his posture that of getting ready to throw down against those that chose to challenge him. On the right side of the painting were Destroyah's opponents, which was Hikari Godzilla! Lily and Isabel were mesmerized upon seeing the saurian, his green body now having blue bulges in certain areas and his spines glowing blue as well. He had his mouth open wide, showing he was roaring and his posture showed he was ready to fight against something that was much bigger than he was!
Flanking him was Queen Athena and Mega Marshmallow, the Molina and Vela women seeing them in wonder as the titanic mermaid and living snow creature were also masterfully done. Isabel exclaimed, "Look! Inside of the mermaid and ice monster! Is that…?! No way!". Indeed, the duo saw that inside the creations were the creators! Ariel and Melody, in their mermaid forms, and holding Silverflash in their hands. They also had fierce looks upon them, showing that they were ready to fight as well! And they saw Elsa inside of Mega Marshmallow, the Ice Queen having a look of focus and rage in her eyes and on her face! They were side-by-side with Hikari Godzilla, all three facing Destroyah and ready to fight!
Lily pointed up over them and stated, "Izzy… what… are… those?!". She looked up, and that is when the two saw MechaGodzilla-II and M.O.G.U.E.R.A flying above the trio! The mechanical copy of Godzilla was hovering with his booster rockets, and providing aerial support and back-up. M.O.G.U.E.R.A looked like she was coming in, like a fast-moving bird of prey as looked like a missile streaking towards Destroyah! Between the two mechas were the flying machines; Super X, Super X-2 and Super X-III! There was a large halo of blue light covering the group, as if Heaven itself was shining down on them and giving the company their support!
The entire painting showed the red evil force of Destroyah going up against the blue good force of Hikari Godzilla, Mega Marshmallow, Empress Athena, MechaGodzilla-II, M.O.G.U.E.R.A, and the Super X crafts!
The two young mortal women were just too stunned to form words in their mouths, backing away slightly to get a better view of the painting. That is when Isabel looked down slightly and saw a large stand that held a huge leather tome book! She whispered, "Lils, look! Is that what I think it is?". The Vela girl now looked at the stand, and said nothing went towards it. Isabel followed, and the duo saw that the tome was bound in a unique white leather binding with four golden symbols at the corners. The upper left one had the insignia of the trident, the upper right one showing the symbol of the sun. The lower left had a glass slipper, while the lower right corner had a snowflake. In the middle was the insignia of G-Force and the U.N.G.C.C., showing the upper-half of Godzilla! Underneath the symbol was a beautifully-made white cross with a blue jewel embedded in the middle of it. It was the gift that Elsa had received from the Twin Fairies long ago! Fortunately, it was a magical copy as the real one was still somewhere back in Arendelle.
Over the Godzilla logo were the words in blazing red words Monsters and Magic, and beneath the white cross item were words in the same bold red color Burning Finale. Lily and Isabel looked at the book, than each other, then turned their heads around to see Cateline who was standing in the entrance/exitway of the chamber.
The fairy godmother spoke, "Any and all answers will be found in that book. In the other chamber, at the place where you descended down here, holds the gift that Godzilla gave to Cinderella and Tracy many years ago. And also the book that I believe that you need to have in order to further make the first story whole.".
Isabel took the book off of the stand gently and carefully, making sure not to damage it. The two soon left the room, going towards Cateline who continued to smile like a wise grandmother would. Lily whispered, "W-What we have seen here… what have read here… it's… its… it's just mind-blowing! This will really have the world shaken up to know that something like this is possible!".
The wise magical being nodded and replied, "I know. And myself & the others believe that perhaps this is the kind of thing the entire world… the entire planet needs. Only I hope to be in a good way, and lead by you two.". The duo's eyes widened as the full implication of what Cateline just stated hit them, but they swallowed down the fear and doubt that tried to creep up. There was no time for that kind of nonsense to come up, especially now!
Cateline was glad to see the determination in the eyes of the Vela and Molina woman. She stated, "I believe that nighttime is upon us now. Come, I wish to show you something special outside of the castle.". She than vanished in a sparkle of stars, the two adventurous women gazing at the spot where she disappeared for a moment before realizing something and checking their cell phones. They saw that it was now 8:00 p.m., and already had some missed calls and text message icons displaying.
Isabel exclaimed, "Oh no! We better get going back to the village fast! Our folks are going to kill us for being out this late and without calling them!". Lily agreed with her on that, and the two cousins rushed out of the chamber and back to the central hub. They both made a mental note to try and come back to the castle in the morning so they could see the other chamber and retrieve the other book. Once they made it back to the center of the hidden domain, they ran up the spiral staircase towards the surface. As soon as they left the chamber, the torches were snuffed out and everything was swallowed up by the darkness.
The young women soon made it back to the surface, and touched the secret switches again on the thrones so that the entrance to the treasure trove below was once again hidden. Lily and Isabel ran out the way they came in, and indeed saw that it was now nighttime. The stars were shining brilliantly with the moon full and huge, casting a soft and wonderful white glow on the land below. The duo were about to run back to the village down below when they saw Cateline sitting on a partially demolished stone seat, looking up at the sky. She turned to face them and said, "Wait a moment, won't you please? Remember I wanted to show you two something special outside here? Well… join me for a moment and look at the sky.".
Lily and Isabel walked to where the fairy godmother was at, and looked up in the sky at the place she was looking at just now. Miss Vela and Miss Molina stared at the heavens for a bit… than gasped when they saw four constellations in the sky! Cateline smiled as she knew they had just seen the kaiju. On the far left was Mothra, both her moth and caterpillar form, with the Twin Fairies on the moth head. Next to her & going towards the right was Godzilla, still roaring in all of his might and glory! Next to him was Rodan, wings spread out wide to show why he was the master of the skies! And next to him was Anguirus, the spiked-shelled behemoth on all fours and looking ready to take on anything or anyone!
Cateline thought, 'Ten years after Cinderella and the others came back, Angurius came from Heaven in the same fashion as his friends did. And took his place among them as the stars in the sky.'.
Lily and Isabel took out their cameras, not the ones on their cell phones, and started to take pictures of the constellations. After getting enough pics, they turned to see Cateline still smiling at them. She spoke softly, "You two have a lot of reading to do. Everything will be explained in time, but until then… enjoy the journey as well as getting to the destination.". She than vanished in a flurry of stars, the same way she did many years ago when she saw Cinderella off to the Royal Ball. Lily and Isabel stared at the spot for a while, then turned their gazes back to the heavens where the giant monsters from another universe were now in.
Little did they know, but the trio had been under surveillance the whole time… by a sophisticated aircraft that was cloaked and blended in with the starry sky amazingly!
Inside the large expensive vessel were people dressed in light & dark brown uniforms, some piloting the machine while others were typing fast on their computer consoles. A silky and seductive feminine voice from a chair that overlooked everything inquired, "Well, did you get the readings? Have you found the identities of those girls?".
One of the workers at the console, a young man who really liked to hear the voice answered, "We managed to get the readings, ma'am. They are like nothing we have ever seen before! Also, we managed to get identification on those two young women. They are Lily Antonia Vela & Isabel Analiese Molina!".
The one who made the inquiry smiled and the lights came on directly above the chair to reveal that it was… Mirage Sabina!
Mirage was once the girlfriend of Buddy Pines, a genius-level young man who made fantastic inventions and machines. However, Buddy went by the villain name of Syndrome who sold his inventions to the highest bidder in the black market circles. He soon became a rich man, acquiring so much wealth that he bought himself his own volcanic island! Mirage knew of his activities, given that she was a computer expert and espionage skills. She went along with his schemes, which sadly involved the murders of beings called Supers due to them having abilities that far exceeded normal human levels. However, she had a change of heart when she and Syndrome captured Mr. Incredible, a Super who had been Buddy's idol once a long time ago. She separated from Buddy after he gambled with her life, and aided Mr. Incredible and his family, who had come to the island to save him, in stopping her former flame.
The authorities had descended on the island shortly after Syndrome's demise at his own hand, where his jet intake had sucked him in thanks to his own cape. While most of the henchmen and employees that worked under the late Pines man had been arrested, Mirage had managed to escape in a special stealth ship that Syndrome had created some weeks ago before the incident. The sexy beauty had decided to go down the path of the straight and narrow, leaving behind her criminal life for good and trying up a new venture. She remembered the movie series of Indiana Jones, where he made his way through life by becoming an adventurous archeologist as well as a professor. So, she decided to give that branch of business a try!
Using the funds that she managed to save up during her time under Syndrome's thumb, she ventured around the planet looking for artifacts and secrets that she believed held keys to something fantastic that would make the world notice her! In a good way unlike what happened to her former boss.
She had hit a bit of a slow run for a couple of years, until in 2012 she discovered something unusual in China. Mirage had managed to sneak into one of the tombs of the emperors of China, and found letters from one of his subjects named Meihui. Upon reading them, the alluring female started to see that something was unusual. She remembered in history class in both high school and college that while China had some times with the European nations, it was never that close. But according to the letters, this Meihui woman was part of something amazing that had caught the attention of the current Emperor at that time. She took the letters and manuscripts back with her, and discovered that Meihui was a descendent of the Fa family, whose member was the legendary heroine of China so long ago Mulan.
It was the starting point for something big as Mirage had dug deep into Meihui and discovered her diary that contained what she had been part of in the Middle East and Europe! The femme fatale had found pictures and descriptions of King Caesar, Little Godzilla, Godzilla, Jet Jaguar, Space Godzilla and Gigan. She was more than just a little intrigued, finding such details and such about these monsters bizarre especially Jet Jaguar since she knew without a doubt that such kind of technology didn't even exist back then. And the whole concept of magic was alien to her, always believing in science and technology.
So for two years, she had followed Meihui's trail and discovered the other secrets hidden in Agrabah, at Copenhagen and also at New Orleans! Mirage was getting deeper and deeper into the mystery that almost became her obsession, to find something that even went beyond science if it was possible. She hit gold upon arriving in New Orleans, finding lost documents and notes from within the city's historic archives that detailed events that included Jet Jaguar in it! She found a diary as well of a woman named Tiana, who was the granddaughter of Skyler Truman who had been a big part of what happened when the android appeared in the city. Mirage read the contents, Tiana saying what her grandfather told her about when she was very young and that intrigued her.
The archeologist soon traversed the swamp lands of the bayou, wanting to see if she could find anything on the people she read about which was Mama Odie and Radelle. It took some long hours mucking about through the natural wetlands, but Mirage hit pay day when she discovered the large treehouse that had once been the voodoo queen's home! She went inside, and discovered books that were written by the two mysterious African-American women. Mirage accidentally discovered a hidden chamber carved deep in the trunk of the tree, and that is when she found an iron statue of Jet Jaguar! She was blown away as she quickly realized that what she was discovering was truth, a lost part of history that just shattered her scientific-based world in every way!
Marveling on how detailed and constructed the iron decoration was, Mirage discovered that the town of New Orleans made it in honor of their hero. However, the hard times hit for the nation and it was given to Mama Odie for safekeeping. She brought in a team that managed to retrieve the statue without damaging the treehouse too much, and she also took the papers and books as well.
After that discovery, she had been on the hunt for more clues and findings of something monumental and historical. Mirage wanted to be the first to show to the world something that had been lost for centuries… and that something existed that was more potent than any kind of science! However, Mirage kept on hitting roadblocks in her quest to find what she was looking for.
Some days ago, she was at the Marcel estate and was about to go in until she saw Lily and Isabel emerging from the castle… with a large tome in their hands, and Mirage's equipment sensors reading them and beeping loudly. The white-haired blonde beauty checked her equipment, and discovered that the two were radiating a kind of energy field that was unidentifiable. But it was strong, very much so and that caught Mirage's attention.
So she had been trailing them, and witnessed their activities in Norway, the Netherlands, Germany and now here in France. Mirage was now certain that the two ladies were the keys that she needed to unlock the door that she really wanted to open badly.
The former villainess stood up from her chair and walked towards the polished floor of the craft, towards the screen that was now paused and showed a frozen picture of Isabel and Lily. Mirage was not very slim as she was before, but not in a bad way. She had filled out extremely nicely, curves in all of the right places that would make any man snap his head to take a good long look at her. It was all due to the times she traveled and explored the world to find what she was looking for, gaining lean yet concentrated muscles. By her side was a cat, a feline that she managed to pick up during a little vacation time in California. Said cat was rather large and round, sporting light gray fur with a white underbelly & black stripes on his back and head. Thin black whiskers adorned his face, along with yellow-green eyes, and an intelligence that caught Mirage's attention in the first place. Said animal was a bit old, but still had some grace and strength in his movements.
On him was a collar that had a golden name tag on it that spelled FAT CAT. Mirage did not choose the name, rather the name & collar was already on said feline when she first found him. She assumed that his owners had abandoned him, and thus took him in. Also, the name itself just appealed to her in some way she could not explain, and the male cat didn't appear to dislike the name at all.
Mirage and her companion walked towards a woman that was lying back in a chair and asked, "What do you think, Miss Go? Do you think that you can find what these girls did?". The mentioned woman turned to face Mirage, and it was… Shego!
Shego had once been a heroine with her brothers some time ago, but had quit and opted to become a villainess instead. She teamed up with brilliant yet goofy mad doctor by the name of Theodore P. Lipsky, who changed his name to Dr. Drakken. The two had gone through various schemes to take over the planet, but had been thwarted by a teenage heroine named Kimberly Ann Possible and her sidekick Ronald Dean Stoppable. The villainess duo have had adventures & misadventures with not only the teenage cheerleading heroine and her sidekick, but with other strange villains from around the globe. But, that all changed when an alien invasion threated the planet in 2007.
Kim, Ron, Shego and Drakken teamed up to defeat the aliens and their leader. In the process, Ron displayed a mystical power and martial arts prowess that really got the attention of both ladies. Shego had figured Ron was little more than a sidekick, but Mr. Stoppable showed potential that was unbelievable! The invasion was pushed back, and it seemed that Ron and Kim became an official couple with the same for Drakken and Shego. Both villains were pardoned for their past crimes since they did manage to save the planet from being subjugated, and Shego went back to her real, full name which was Shelia Go.
But, that was not to be the case.
Kim had been accepted to Harvard University at Cambridge, Massachusetts, which was good in her view since it was the very top university in the world. However, Ron's grades and his lack of academic motivation had caused him to go to Lowerton University in Colorado. The long-distance relationship was hard, and also due to the duo being different in more ways than one. Ron liked to chill and goof off, only getting serious when it came to cooking or the martial arts especially now that he showed great potential in the area. Kim loved challenges and strived to be the best she could be. In 2009, they broke up and though they remained best friends, they went their separate ways. Ronald had managed to transfer from the United States to Japan to enroll in the mysterious Yamanouchi University, which was really a clever front for the Yamanouchi Ninja School. Ron was encouraged by the staff there, especially his old teacher Master Sensei and his new lady love Yori into really pushing towards the path of dedication and motivation.
Meanwhile, Shelia had been together with Drakken but they too discovered that they were opposites as well. Similar to the situation with Kim and Ron. Drakken wanted to stay in a single spot where he could invent and create stuff, which was why he was hired by Global Justice due to his intellect. However, Shelia wanted to be on the move, to be where action and adventure was at! She still had her plasma power, and wanted to put her energy into something good for a change. So they separated, and Miss Go worked as a freelancer of sort. She went from employer to employer that had both money, and adventure mixed in with danger. She had been a bodyguard, explorer and spy though she was careful as to who employed her. She even worked a bit at the Yamanouchi school as a stint to protect one of the presidents of the university, and had seen Ron there. She was impressed on how he had changed for the better, and told him in a flirtatious way that if things didn't work out with Yori to give her a call.
Now, she was employed by Mirage. At first, Shelia didn't think the job of being a muscle for simple excavation was for her. Until the clever female promised her a check of big money, and also the promise of adventure. She told Miss Go on what she had found so far, and needless to say, Shelia found herself intrigued on what was presented to her. So, she accepted and was hoping to find the kind of thrill and adventure that had eluded her for so long.
Now back to the present, Shelia looked to Mirage and answered, "I believe so, but if it's like the other dead ends we faced before… than the only possible way to find anything at all is to get those two girls to help us.". Shelia had tried to use force to find out what the two young women had discovered, but it seemed that the magic protecting the secret entrances was potent enough to deflect even her plasma power. Said power also enabled her to age slowly, so she still looked as beautiful and formidable as she was back then.
Mirage sighed, than looked to the frozen monitor again that displayed Lily and Isabel. She thought on the matter for a moment, than stated, "Follow them, but do not harm or scare them in any way. We need to learn what they found, and then go from there.". Unlike the other foolish villains that she encountered, Mirage was all about being subtle, careful and legitimate. She didn't believe in using sheer force or intimidation to get what she wanted, she left that part of her past behind for good. She would have to find an opportunity to talk to Lily and Isabel, and convince them to join her.
Shelia nodded, getting up and going to one of the entrances/exitways of the craft to follow Miss Molina and Miss Vela, as they were now running back to the village.
Once she was gone, Mirage bent down and stroked the top of Fat Cat's head and back, eliciting a purr from the male feline. The beautiful lady un-paused the image, the monitor now reverting back to current time and seeing empty space. However… Mirage used the camera to pan up, and got a look at the star constellations… specifically the ones having the images of the legendary kaiju! She whispered to her pet, "Soon my faithful Fat Cat… we will have the means to unlock everything! Unlocking history… unlocking something that even puts science to shame! And… unlocking the biggest discovery of all. The discovery… of an entirely different universe!".
Mirage's stunning green eyes were locked on the face of Godzilla, feeling a kind of rush and power flowing into her very being!
~In the Toho Universe~
The year was 2000, four years have passed since the death of Godzilla and the rebirth of his son. Tokyo and Narita were repaired, and the citizens were going about their lives. However, unlike the Disney universe, the people had not forgotten about what occurred during the time of Burning Godzilla. When other universal-beings had come forth, and shown to all that there was much more to the giant monsters than meets the eye. In fact, Melody and her group were very much famous all over Japan and in some parts of the world! A brilliant statue that showed each and every one of those that came from the other universe was set up in front of G-Force headquarters, a plague giving the names of all of them. Even the fairies and the Charming mice!
Now down below in Tokyo Bay… the reborn Junior was dreaming once more. His mind had finally come to full maturity along with his body, but… he kept having images and dreams of beings that seemed to remember him. The images and faces were fuzzy and unclear at first, but gradually they started to become clearer & focused. Soon, he started to see their faces. He didn't know their names, but he felt that deep in his heart and spirit, they were good… they were friends, bonded even! Though he could not understand it, even though he tried.
Suddenly, something tugged at his sixth sense! He sensed that something was on its way to Earth… an intruder that needed to be repelled from his territory, his home! His eyes snapped open, and he started to rise from his sitting position on the ocean floor. He soon let out a roar, bubbles coming up like a swirling storm around his being!
Junior… or would soon to be known as Godzilla 2000 had awakened! And his roar could be heard not just in his watery place… but it actually reached out to the Disney universe, where it was faintly heard by Lily, Isabel, Shelia, Fat Cat and Mirage!
A new adventure was about to begin soon!
