(Military hide-out building: 6:30pm: June 8th, 1996)
General Harusho was panicking. His soldiers were all reported dead in the tunnel. However, using the tracking devices all the soldiers had, they were able to find the location of the underground dome, where the giant shokilas was hiding. Meanwhile, Godzilla was thundering through the city, searching for more nuclear energy. As Shota and Yumi sat in the conference room, Harusho ordered that they should move out to higher grounds. He had also ordered a helicopter for the two of them to leave at once, and said that Godzilla was approaching the building.
As Shota and Yumi ran out the door, Harusho turned to Shota and said, "Here, Shota. Take this."
He gave Shota a pendant. It had wings on them, and shined a rusty gold.
"Just keep it safe, and don't give up," Harusho said.
Shota didn't say anything. He just nodded, and saluted Harusho.
With that, Shota and Yumi left. As they ran up the stairs to the helicopter, they halted from a loud crash that shook the building. They continued up the stairs, as the lights flickered and pieces of plaster fell from the ceiling. Once they made it to the top, they saw the helicopter waiting for them, but they also saw something bigger. It was Godzilla's head, peering over the top of the building. He roared, and the two of them were thrown back. Yumi got up, and could see the pilot calling them over. They ran as fast as they could to get to the helicopter, and got in. As the helicopter took off, Shota sighed with relief, but his pendant was slipping out of his hand. It fell onto the bar support of the helicopter, and Shota reached down to get it. Yumi struggled to pull him up, but as he leaned down, he could see Godzilla's mouth stretching open to devour the helicopter. Shota quickly grabbed it, and the helicopter flew away, safely out of Godzilla's reach. As Yumi and Shota looked back, they could see Godzilla tear the military hideout building apart. It fell to the power of Godzilla, as he tore away at it, ripping it to shreds as it collapsed to the ground. Shota quickly turned away. He couldn't bear to see the sight, knowing the general he had just seen a few moments ago was in that building. Yumi looked at Shota, but said nothing. She just leaned against him as they flew away in the helicopter, and into the distance.
(Downtown Tokyo: 9:19pm: June 8th, 1996)
The helicopter landed at a nearby building, which was only fifty yards away from the very heart of Tokyo. Shota and Yumi were on the balcony, watching as Godzilla slowly headed towards it. Yumi held tightly to Shota's hand, and Shota looked at her, then back at Godzilla. Godzilla was rampaging to the center of the city, stomping everything in his path.
Godzilla was only fifteen meters away from the large, protruding building that shot out of the core of Tokyo. As he let out a low growl, he lumbered forward, creating miniature earthquakes as he shook the cars that lay across the sides of the street. As he continued towards the building, he stopped. Looking at the ground, Godzilla noticed the cracks his foot had created from his stomp. The cracks continued to lead to the building. He took another step, but as he did, the building in front of him started to shake. Godzilla cautiously took another step forward, but didn't put his foot down this time. As he held his foot up, he noticed the ground was still shaking, yet he made no sudden movements. Godzilla cocked his head to the side, with confusion.
Then, he decided to put his foot down. As soon as he did, his foot fell through the ground, and, panicking, he immediately pulled it back up. Godzilla took a step back, and looked down at the hole he had created in the ground with his foot. It was very dark, and Godzilla could hear a strange sound. He lowered down to it, but as he did, shokilas' were pouring out of it, thousands and thousands. They covered his foot, and began stinging into his skin. Godzilla screeched with pain, and quickly kicked his foot into a building to the left of him, trying desperately to shake them off. Afterwards, he turned back to the tall building that was straight ahead of him. He noticed that the building now began to shiver and crackle; the windows and frames were snapping under the weight of something below, something very large. Godzilla cocked his head back, now with curiosity.
As he watched, the building crumbled in slow motion, as if time had stopped, and Godzilla was in a daze of confusion. For some odd reason, Godzilla felt he should take a step forward, and he did. This time, the ground did not crumble. He continued to advance slowly, and then he stopped. Looking forward, squinting his eyes, he noticed a strange movement inside the building.
Just then, the building exploded, and out of it towered a huge, brown-colored, centipede-like insect that was nearly twice the size of Godzilla. It let out a loud, ear-piercing squeal that seemed to echo into the distance. It towered over Godzilla, looking down on him as if he were nothing but a human. It hissed at him, and Godzilla just stared forward with surprise. The giant centipede outstretched its body, revealing two, long front legs that supported huge claws on each side.
That's when it hit Yumi. "That's it." She said to Shota, pointing nervously to the giant insect.
"That's what?" Shota asked.
"That's the giant shokilas king… 'Megashokilas.'"
Shota looked in awe at the giant monster as it stared down at Godzilla. He repeated the name softly, "…Megashokilas."
Godzilla and Megashokilas stood there for what seemed like forever. Then, out of the blue, Megashokilas took his large, outstretched front claws and stabbed his large, sharp digits into Godzilla's neck. Godzilla screeched with anger and pain, and he noticed something coming out of Megashokilas' mouth. Megashokilas hissed, and as Godzilla looked at its mouth, he noticed a long, sharp tube sticking out of his mouth. It was the monster's sucker. As it desperately tried to puncture Godzilla with it's mosquito-like tube, Godzilla grabbed the two front legs, and desperately struggled to pull the claws out of his neck; which was now soaked in steaming blood. Godzilla used all his strength, and yanked the digits out of his neck, roaring out a loud cry. Godzilla took a step back, and due to his weight, fell through the ground and into the dome underneath, where Megashokilas was resting earlier. As Godzilla fell backward, Megashokilas plunged in with him, falling on top of him.
All that Shota and Yumi could see was Godzilla and Megashokilas, fumbling and toppling around in the crater that was once the center of the beautiful city of Tokyo. A few minutes later, they saw Godzilla rush his upper body above ground, and they could both see Godzilla. He had hold around Megashokilas' neck, who was trying to stab Godzilla again with his giant claws. At the same time, Godzilla was blinded by the shokilas' that surrounded his upper body, and his entire head, stabbing into his skin. With one hand digging into Megashokilas' neck, and another hand on his own face, Godzilla tried his hardest to scrape away the shokilas', but only damaging his own face. Godzilla used his electrical energy to fry the shokilas off of his face. In a matter of seconds, Godzilla could see clearer and, grabbing Megashokilas' two, extending arms, threw Megashokilas out of the pit.
Godzilla scrambled out of the pit, and looked up to see Megashokilas right in front of him. He grabbed Godzilla by the neck again, in the same wound spots, and pulled him up to meet Godzilla face to face. Godzilla's teeth cringed tightly. Megashokilas extended his tube sucker again, and Godzilla used his nuclear pulse, throwing Megashokilas a few feet back. He hit the ground with a thundering earthquake. Godzilla shook his head, and stepped forward to fight Megashokilas again. He saw Megashokilas' tail swing behind a building, and he was gone. Godzilla looked around, urgently looking for his mighty insect foe. He heard a sound, and twirled around, but there was no Megashokilas to be found. Then he saw him, standing beside a building, as if trying to blend in with the metallic background. Godzilla prepared to fire a radioactive blast at the giant shokilas, but the monster was too quick. Megashokilas snapped his head down, and slithered away, too fast for Godzilla to see. Godzilla's breath followed the trail of destruction Megashokilas left behind, but it wasn't quick enough to strike Megashokilas. Just then, Godzilla spun around 180 degrees, and saw Megashokilas stand up, stretching his skinny, exoskeletal arms out, revealing the shining claws that stuck out, glistening with Godzilla's fresh blood. Godzilla fired another shot at Megashokilas, and it hit his opponent straight in the back. Megashokilas tensed up, and when Godzilla looked at Megashokilas, he realized that he had done no damage at all. Godzilla's eyes grew wide, and Megashokilas slowly turned around to hiss at his enemy.
"I understand." Shota said, his mouth dropped to his chin. "Megashokilas is immune to Godzilla's atomic ray, because he was probably part of the same colony that once thrived on Godzilla. Therefore, he still has the strength to survive Godzilla's radioactivity."
Megashokilas rushed to Godzilla, and pummeled him into a building only twenty feet away from the building Shota and Yumi were on. Yumi panicked, trying to run downstairs, but Shota wouldn't let her. He held on to her, and she gave him a glare of confusion and anger, but remained where she was. They continued to watch the battle rage on.
Godzilla was pinned to the ground. Megashokilas, now having a tight grip on Godzilla, dug his two large claws into Godzilla's throat once more, and stuck out his tube sucker. Godzilla was trying to throw off Megashokilas' arms, but it was too late. As Megashokilas sank his sucker into Godzilla's right wrist, Godzilla screamed. His hand was being sucked dry, every single drop of blood leaving Godzilla's arm. Godzilla's arm was withering, and he looked up at Megashokilas. With one, huge blast of his atomic breath, he spilled Megashokilas' guts. Megashokilas' screeched in pain, but wasn't dead. He let go of Godzilla, and stepped back a few yards, panting. Godzilla charged at Megashokilas, but Megashokilas reacted quickly, swinging his massive tail at Godzilla. The two large spikes protruding from his tail smacked Godzilla in the face, and brought him to the ground. Godzilla tried to push himself up, but his decaying hand sent him falling back to the ground. Megashokilas leaned over to finish off Godzilla, but Godzilla wouldn't give in. Grabbing hold of Megashokilas with his tail, he sent an electric current through Megashokilas, electrocuting him. Megashokilas recoiled with pain, and slithered away. Godzilla quickly sprang up, with the help of his left, good hand, and watched Megashokilas scurry away. He was heading for the harbor, but Godzilla wasn't finished with him yet.
Shota and Yumi walked slowly to the edge of the building, watching Godzilla chase after his enemy. Suddenly, Yumi noticed something out of the corner of her eye. A dark figure busted out of a door on top of the balcony, and had greased-back, black hair, with a red tie. It was Morohita.
"Not so fast." Morohita said, grinning evilly at the two of them.
Just then, the helicopter pilot jumped out of his seat, and yelled, "Freeze, mister! Drop your weapon!"
Mr. Morohita chuckled and shot him. The young pilot made a shutter, and leaned forward, then fell to the ground.
Shota turned to Morohita. "You bastard!"
"What can I say? It's my job." He said, laughing insanely.
"But I trusted you…all these years." Shota took a step back.
"I'm sorry Shota, but when that girl came to work with us, I knew you'd be too sympathetic to her." Morohita cocked his weapon, preparing to fire another shot. "But now it's too late, Shota. Tokyo is going to be destroyed, and there's nothing you can do about it. Say goodbye." Morohita stepped forward slowly, as Shota kept creeping backwards. Morohita was laughing, aiming the gun up to shoot, but just then, he heard a voice from behind.
"You say goodbye, first." Yumi fired the pilot's gun. Morohita froze, looking down at his stomach, and wiping the trickling blood that now stained his tie. He fell to the ground, and went limp.
Yumi sighed, and Shota ran over to her. "I wasn't going to let you die." She said, hugging Shota. They looked at each other, and found themselves lost in an entranced kiss.
The mighty roar of Godzilla quickly distracted them as he headed out to sea, following Megashokilas.
"We need to get out of here," Shota said.
The two of them ran downstairs, hurrying to get out of the building. As they headed down the stairs, they were blocked by a chunk of concrete that had fallen and chipped away a section of the stairs.
"There's no other way out." Shota said, looking back to hear the sound of a choked chuckle.
It was Morohita. He was alive, and was now looking at the two of them, still holding his gun. "Don't even try to escape this time." He aimed the gun at Shota. "You know," he said, looking at Yumi now, "I think I want to kill my assassin instead." He turned his gun to Yumi and shot her. She fell back, but was caught by Shota.
"Yumi!" he yelled. Shota looked up at Morohita, and noticed something above his head. Morohita looked up at somethingsqueaking.
A shokilas plopped onto his face, and Morohita screamed. Shota watched, as the shokilas sucked out Morohita's brain. In a desperate attempt to save himself, Morohita aimed the gun at the shokilas' head, and fired at the shokilas. The shokilas died instantly, but so did Mr. Morohita, as the bullet went through the shokilas, and into his head. The shokilas fell off, and Shota could see Morohita's raisin-like face. His face was wrinkled, and a huge hole was showing right in his forehead, which was dripping a little bit of blood; most of the blood had been drained from the shokilas. He turned away from the awful sight, and Morohita tipped over the edge of the stairs, falling to the bottom; his body like a dummy as it hit stair railings on the way down.
Shota gently placed Yumi down. "Yumi," he said softly, tears forming in his eyes.
Just then, the helicopter pilot appeared at the top of the stairs. "Hey, where are you guys going?" He was still alive, but clutching his side.
Shota immediately looked up to see him. "Please, help her!" he yelled, not even surprised to see the pilot.
"Okay, okay. Let's just get you guys out of here. There's a nearby hospital that should still be running. It's not far from here, in Osaka."
Shota carried Yumi up to the balcony, and they got in. The pilot immediately began helping Yumi. "She's been shot in her side, but luckily it didn't hit any major organs," the pilot said, bandaging her up. Shota peered out of the helicopter, and watched Godzilla. He was far in the distance now, but he could also see something else.
Godzilla was moving as fast as he could through the water, trying to catch up with Megashokilas. He stopped, realizing he had lost track of the monster. Just then, he felt something beneath him, and Godzilla looked down into the black water. Then he noticed a huge hump of water coming straight at him. Before it reached Godzilla, the water burst open, and Megashokilas loomed over Godzilla. He grasped onto Godzilla, and Godzilla grasped back. They were interlocked in an epic battle, and they were spinning in a circle in the water. As the small whirlpool below them faded, Godzilla was holding on to Megashokilas' claws, which were reaching out to pierce Godzilla's skin. The sucker came out once again, and Megashokilas used all his weight to shove it straight into Godzilla's chest. Godzilla let out a loud high-pitched roar in agony as Megashokilas began to suck the innards out of Godzilla, straight from his heart. Godzilla was feeling drowsy, and there was nothing he could do but sit back and relax as the sucking continued. Within minutes, Godzilla had become a skinny raisin, barely moving in the water as Megashokilas let him slip away. Godzilla's body floated gently on the surface, and then began to sink into the darkness. Megashokilas shrieked in his victory.
(Military base at Tokyo Harbor: 10:19pm: June 8th, 1996)
A commander in chief slowly stood up from his seat. "General Harusho and his troops died an hour ago, at a vacant building they used for military hideout." Everyone in the control room watched the commander as he spoke. He looked up at the giant television in front of him. It showed Megashokilas, still roaring in his ultimate win. The commander looked at it, angered. Then he turned back to the other lieutenants and generals and soldiers, saying, "Gentleman, prepare to fire the A-bomb at Megashokilas. I want that monster dead."
As the hill at Tokyo Harbor opened up, a large missile ascended.
The commander said, "Prepare to fire in five…four…"
The young man next to him had his thumb on a glowing red button, shaking it nervously.
"Three…two…one."
The commander thought about the past, about Godzilla fighting Gunhead, about the pain and exhaustion Godzilla went through. He shoved the young man's hand out of the way, and said, "If you don't mind, I'd like to do this one." He looked at the young man, and the young man took a step back, respectfully. The commander looked at the TV screen, at Megashokilas, and his eyes were focused on him. He hit the button. "Say goodbye, sucker."
The rocket blasted off into the still darkening sky, and headed for Megashokilas. Megashokilas didn't notice anything, until he heard a faint burning sound. He looked over, and saw the missile coming right for him. Megashokilas made a slight sound of confusion, and then the missile hit the water. There was a huge explosion of green fire, and then nothing but smoke.
Under the water, the green glow glistened, and the radioactivity sank down into the water. It fell onto Godzilla's shriveled body, and his body began to glow. Suddenly, his hand twitched.
The general watched as the smoke cleared from the giant, cylindrical green orb of radioactivity. There was nothing, no Megashokilas in sight. The general sighed, and there was silence in the control room. Just then, the general heard a strange noise, and looked up at the screen again. In the green mist surrounding the water, something was emerging from the water…something big. It was Megashokilas. He screeched with anger. He wasn't dead. The commander stepped back in horror, but then he noticed something else rising from the water.
As Megashokilas twisted and turned in pain and anger, something rose from the water behind him. There was a low growl. Megashokilas could feel a ripple in the water, and quickly spun around. It was Godzilla. He was revived from the radioactive blast. He shook his head, as if waking up from a decade-long dream. Megashokilas quivered, stepping back in the water with confusion and disbelief. Godzilla advanced forward slowly, in a haunting way, almost like a ghost. He stopped. The commander was watching, also in disbelief, and so was everyone else in the room. Godzilla raised his head at Megashokilas, and in a split-second, fired his atomic ray right at Megashokilas. The ray struck Megashokilas' head, making it's way down Megashokilas' stomach, and into the water. Godzilla let his beam die down, and Megashokilas burst into guts and blood everywhere. Megashokilas was finally dead.
The commander watched, his eyes not believing what he was seeing, and then, as if it had taken forever to happen, everyone in the control room clapped. One by one, they clapped, not only applauding the commander, but also Godzilla. A tear came to the commander's eye. "We did it, Godzilla. We did it."
(Tokyo, Japan: 10:30pm: June 8th, 1996)
The helicopter was hovering over Japan, and Shota was looking down into the glistening water, as Godzilla roared in triumph, making his way out to sea. "We're on our way to Osaka, Shota." The pilot said, looking back at him. The pilot finally saw Godzilla in the water below. "Hey, there he is." He said, pointing out Godzilla in the water. Shota nodded his head, and looked away from the window, over to Yumi, who was now conscious, and leaning against Shota. He nudged Yumi.
"Look." He said, pointing out the window.
Yumi struggled to keep her eyes open, looking out the window at Godzilla. She was falling asleep, but Shota could see the smile on her face. He thought he could hear her faintly say, "I love you, Shota," but he wasn't sure.
He looked at Godzilla one last time, and said, "Thank you, Godzilla." He laid his head against Yumi's and went to sleep; listening to Godzilla's faint roar as the helicopter flew off into the distant, night sky.
