Chapter 8
Asakusa's sky's erupted in a bedlam of fire and metal.
Military and monsters in junction with each other, two forces that normally would have been clashing swords with one another now struggled against a foe that threatened all of them, an evil known only as Bagan the Bane of Life.
Exactly thirty five seconds had passed since the they were ordered to fire at will, and already the battle was taking a turn for the worse. Although Bagans power assimilation had been disrupted the creature was already far more powerful then anyone could have anticipated. As soon as Bagan was hit by Godzilla's ray the dark Daikaiju had put a body shield around it's self that prevented any of the attacks from man or Kaiju to harm him.
"Blast it nothings getting through!" shouted general Teshima who was on location with the ground troops, "how are we supposed to fight this thing if we can't even land a single hit!?"
"General look!" shouted the young officer that was assigned to Teshima's division.
Teshima drew his gaze to the direction the officer was pointing, only to see that the giant turtle known as Gamera who had taken off earlier in the fight flying straight towards Bagan. Bagan anticipated the turtles move and fired a purplish beam from his central horn but although the guardian turtle took the brunt of the blast its speed and direction did not change. Gamera successfully managed to collide with Bagan, knocking him off of his feet and forcing the creature to let down its shield for a moment.
Teshima immediately took advantage of this, "All ground and air units, fire! I repeat fire!" Teshima shouted through the radio.
Tanks, masers, jets, choppers and the like all released billions of explosive shells from there armored interiors. The amount of fire power that was released at that moment could have wiped out the entire military of a small country, but against Bagan they were merely irritants that could be ignored, even the mighty Mothra's beams were no match for Bagan's newfound durability.
As Bagan rose back up the Godzilla known as Jr. fired a blue ray at the demons skin causing white sparks to fly from the back of his torso. Bagan turned around anger flaming in his eyes. Bagan then noticed the original Godzilla powering up for his breath weapon. As soon as Godzilla released the atomic flame Bagan split into several thin strands and disappeared.
Godzilla's ray missed Bagan by seconds and completely leveled what ever remained of Sensoji temple.
"Blast! There goes the rest of the temple." General Jukodo shouted from the monitor room, "And where did Bagan go!"
suddenly Bagan rematerialized behind Godzilla Jr., Godzilla saw Bagan materialize behind his son and began to fire another atomic blast, but Bagan was faster. Bagan took Jr. by the tail and swung him across the battle field, causing him to crash into Godzilla and making both leviathans crash into a nearby skyscraper, leveling it completely. Bagan then turned around and began to lumber towards the fallen Gamera.
General Jukodo slammed his fist on the control panel of the observation room, "How are we going to stop this thing! Its power is incredible!"
"Not to mention its curious teleportation ability" commented Dr. Falon Seiryuu.
Jukodo raised a brow, "What do you mean?"
" What I mean is that it's interesting that Bagan needs two different teleportation techniques, one is the cutter teleportation which can only transport Bagan short distances while the dark portal teleportation he used to arrive here can only transport him vast distances" Dr. Seiryuu explained.
Jukodo looked at Falon with anticipation, "And how dose that help us?"
Falon shrugged his red scaly shoulders, "It doesn't."
Falon then looked at the monitors, "Umm, Shido, I think you better do something before Bagan makes turtle soup out of our guardian friend over there".
Jukodo whipped over to the monitors, "Great just great." he mumbled, " Okay I got it. Where's the remote pilot system for M.O.G.E.R.A.".
A young woman with long black hair stood up, "Here it is sir ...but if you don't mind me asking what do you plan to do M.O.G.E.R.A is no where near fighting condition, it's missing it's left arm for crying out loud!"
Jukodo just smiled, "You'll see Amy, just hand over the remote control device." The American woman known as Amy Carmichael handed the device over to Jukodo "Now lets see how smart this thing is, if he were any kind of tactician he would have already have put back up his shield."
Jukodo used the panel and lifted up M.O.G.E.R.A's right arm "Alright Amy san, you have weapon controls, I need you to fire the energy replicatetors in M.O.G.E.R.A's arm."
Amy nodded and punched in a few keys, soon a blue energy beam spewed from M.O.G.E.R.A's right arm, smacking Bagan's backside. The devilish creature turned around to face M.O.G.E.R.A; it hissed at its new attacker and began to charge towards M.O.G.E.R.A.
"Good he's blinded by his rage". Jukodo then turned to Amy, "Quickly miss Carmichael fire a spiral tornado missile into the beast's right eye!"
Amy did as commanded, making M.O.G.E.R.A's cone arm open up to revel the deadly missile inside. the metal object was jettisoned from the cone. It found its target, the missile punctured Bagans right eye, and began to drill into his skull, causing the monster to shriek in incredible agony.
In an incredible amount of pain, Bagan lashed out at the defenseless M.O.G.E.R.A, Bagan released it's horn blast and punctured a whole right through Mogera's chest. Bagan then grabbed the robot and began to tear it apart, first by ripping off it's surviving arm, then by finally crushing it's head between his mighty claws.
"Blast!" Jukodo shouted as he watched M.O.G.E.R.A fall backwards crushing a Sensoji temple marketplace. "There goes M.O.G.E.R.A, and that stupid missile failed to explode."
Jukodo then stopped in mid thought and picked up a military radio, "general Teshima do you read!"
A crackled voice came on the other end, "Teshima here what do you need general?"
Jukodo spoke again, "Look Teshima, there's a spiral missile lodged in Bagans right eye. I what you to focus all of your fire power on that missile, and maybe will be able to deal a critical blow to this monster."
Teshimas voice crackled over the radio again, "Yes sir! Teshima out!" As Teshima put away his radio he turned to his men, "All right men! There's a missile inside that beasts eye! Were going to make it go boom! Is that understood?"
A quick "Yes sir" came from all the men and they all began to recalibrate there weapons for the new target.
As the soldiers prepared to fire they noticed that the guardian insect Mothra had begun to circle around Bagan releasing a yellow powder like substance that seemed to be halting Bagans movements.
Jukodo's voice crackled over Teshima's radio, "A little help from are fairy friends, this should make him an easier target."
Teshima smiled, "Roger that Shido, Teshima out" Teshima then turned to his troops and shouted "Fire!"
As the missiles and rockets made there way for there target Bagan could feel his muscles stiffening to the point where movement was almost impossible, that insect would pay for this humiliation. Bagan began to power up his lazar horn, but stopped as an indescribable pain ripped through his right eye as the missiles from the inferiors army exploded the drill missile that had bored its way into his eye.
the hellish pain he felt tear through his entire body as the explosion completely disintegrated his eye was so agonizing that he fell over form the excruciating torment, crushing the nearby five story pagoda that was near what once was Sensoji temple.
A cloud of dust formed as the mighty Bagan crashed into the pagoda, causing Mothra to cease her attack and fly to a more visible area.
For a few seconds nothing happened, Gamera and the Godzillas were beginning to recover from Bagans initial attack, but soon the silence was broken as a purple beam rushed out of the smoke and blasted Mothra with deadly accuracy.
As Mothra fell to earth the dark form of Bagan moved out of the cloud of dust glaring at its opponents with its one good eye. He then turned to Teshimas battalion and caused his purplish orbs to glow, he released a black wispy beam from his mouth.
The last words most of the soldiers heard were that of General Teshima shouting at them to take cover.
The black beam raced across the battalion, but it did not exploded any of the vehicles nor burn any of the men, instead it raced time forward, it caused both man and machine to waste away until they were nothing more then dust. The men panicked as they watched there flesh age and melt off there bodies to reveal pearly white bone.
Teshima stared in horror at the chaos that was unfolding around him, grown men weeping for there mothers as the dark beam enveloped them, there were also those who begged Teshima to send word to there loved ones. Tears formed in Teshimas own eyes as he helplessly watched Bagan's beam cut down his men, some of who where good friends. Then Teshima watched as Bagan started to power up his dark shield once again, no! he would not let this demon win.
Teshima grabbed his radio, "This is General Teshima of the JSDF ground and air support, Mecha Godzilla do you read!"
a crackle came over Teshima's radio, " Yes sir we read you loud and clear, how did you survive?"
"Look there's no time for that" Teshima said desperately, "Look, I know your orders are supposed to come directly from General Jukodo but there's no time to reach him, Bagan is powering up his shield, that monster needs to be stopped now! I need you to fire Mecha Godzilla's shock anchors, hopefully that will stun him enough to keep him from using the shield."
There was a short pause, and then Marou Kojima's voice came over the radio, "We read you loud and clear chief! Shock anchors deployed! Let's stop this monster once and for all!"
Teshima smiled "Thank you Marou, thank you."
As Teshima said this four silvery cables shot out of Mecha Godzilla's wrists and knee's, each managing to strike Bagan. Two in his knees, and two in his chest, causing the beast to roar in anger and stop his shield power up.
Jukodo watched this and saw the perfect opportunity to strike back, "all units, including super x 3 and the Mecha Gyaos squadron, Attack! I repeat attack!"
