Okay, I will actually be updating this regularly with my other fanfics despite me saying that this'll be updated less frequently. Also, sorry about the late update, I have kinda less time to work on this now, and also I've been speeding running DBZ. Anyway, here's chapter 3. Enjoy!

Reviews!

ALTartist1105: Thank you! Also, ty for being my first reviewer!

: I'm pretty sure that means Thank you in Russian. But don't thank me. I have to thank you for reading this fanfic!

ahmedimrannaeem885: Thank you!

Whatif-inator: I see you've taken an interest in this fanfic too! Don't think I've never noticed you, I still have to thank you for giving me ideas for my other fanfic, Of Heroes and Monsters. Also, Godzilla is technically allied with Gaia, but not really…? He's just protecting the big rock, not the goddess. And is he a creation of Gaia…? You'll see.

Gamelover41592: Yes, let us see where this goes! Also, thank you for being the first review on chapter 2!

Titanus Gojira is a plant in the depths of the woods, in the most dangerous area where the monsters thrived. Only twice have I seen it, once was when it was just on the edge of a clearing. It was a spiky one, jagged plates in the shape of leaves coming out of the ground, about ten meters long. And it could move just ever so slightly. The second time… well, it came to me. Not like a spore, seed, or in pieces, flung by the wind, no. It stood up and walked. And it turned my house into ash and fire in an instant! I got away from it, and I am writing in this journal now to whoever may find it. Do not aggravate it. And do not let it see you. Because if you do… It will find you. And you just might end up in flames.

Chapter 3: First Contact

Mothra was the Queen of Monsters. The Benevolent One. The Giver of Life. Goddess of the Houtua. And she was attending middle school in Manhattan in the body of a preteen. Of course, it wasn't like she didn't like it. Humans were interesting to watch, especially in their development stage. Humans also had wonderful inventions. Do you know what ice cream is? Mothra was addicted to it. And the internet! You could search up anything on a box made of metal and glass that lit up. That was very helpful in integrating into human society.

And friends! Of course, Mothra had kaiju friends, but human friends were good too. They were very funny, and talked to her about human males and who they wanted to mate with. It was confusing, but also interesting to watch them talk about. They also giggled and pushed each other and did random things that she did not know why they did it. Like going to the bathroom in large groups. That was weird.

But even though Mothra had friends, she didn't have what most people called "BFFs," which was basically what they called their best friends. That title was only reserved for friends who could provide support and was a person's closest friend. That was weird too. If that was the case, then everyone should be best friends. Humans were weird. But entertaining.

The bell rang, signaling the end of the school day, and everyone around her rushed to their bags and raced out, glad to be out of school. Summer break had officially started. Mothra packed her bag and got up, walking out of the building a minute later, pushing through the crowd.

She reached up and loosened her hair tie, taking it off and shaking her head, her blue hair flowing in the wind as she raced towards the corner of the block. She could see Percy and Sally waving at her, standing in front of a car.

"Hi!" Mothra leapt and hugged Percy, and he patted her head.

"Hi, Mothra!" Percy pulled her towards the car. "Come on! Get in, get in!"

"Okay!" Mothra quickly hopped into the car, putting her bag on the seat next to her. "Montauk?"

"Montauk!" Percy confirmed excitedly, sliding into the shotgun seat as Sally turned the key in the ignition. "Step on it, mom!"

The rental cabin was little more than a little blue box, half swallowed by the dunes on the very tip of Long Island. It was the perfect place for someone like Percy. He loved the rolling waves and the long, sandy beaches. It was also far away from the chaos of civilization, so it was just him, his mom, Godzilla and Mothra, enjoying the sound of the ocean waves crashing on the shore.

They got there at sunset, cleaning up the cobwebs and sweeping the sand out of the house. They walked along the beach, feeding the seagulls chips and ate blue candy. At night, they roasted hot dogs and marshmallows over a roaring fire.

Percy sat silently, plucking marshmallows off his stick and popping them into his mouth as he listened to his mom tell him and Mothra stories.

"Hey mom?" Percy asked.

"Hmm?"

"What was dad like?"

"Oh, sweetie." Sally's eyes became misty. "He was kind. Tall, handsome, and powerful, but gentle. He had black hair and green eyes, just like you. He would be so proud of you if he were here to see you now, Percy."

What's so good about a kid who's been kicked out of six schools in six years? Percy thought.

Don't think that, Little One. Godzilla tried to cheer him up.

Yeah! Mothra added.

"Are you going to send me away again?" Percy asked.

Sally stared at her marshmallow. "I don't know. But we'll have to do something."

"Do you not want me around?" That struck a chord.

Tears welled up in Sally's eyes. "No, it's not that, Percy. I-It's for your own good. I have to."

"Because I'm not normal."

"It's not a bad thing, Percy. But you're important. I thought you'd be safe at Yancy Academy. That it was far away enough."

"Safe from what?"

Sally met Percy's eyes. "I wanted to keep you as close to me as possible. They said it was a mistake. There's only one other option."

"My father wanted me to go to a special school?"

"Not a school," she said. "A summer camp."

Percy was bewildered. A summer camp? Why would his dad, who hadn't even stayed long enough to see him born, mention a summer camp?

"I'm sorry, Percy. I couldn't send you to that place. It might mean saying good-bye to you for good."

"But it's only a summer camp…"

Sally turned away and Percy stopped asking questions.

Percy walked through a forest, holding a lantern in front of him to illuminate the dark path before him. It was midday, and yet, within the forest, it was dark as night. He used his other hand to part the dense foliage with a long knife, clearing himself a path through. He didn't know why he was here, but he'd make it through.

He had slashed his way through into a clearing just about thirty feet in diameter. Sunlight came in through the canopy above, allowing light to shine upon the center of the clearing. And in the middle was a plant. But Percy knew this was no plant. He'd seen those leaf shaped objects before.

Percy tried to speak, but found he couldn't. He just knelt down and touched the large protrusions, feeling the rough surface beneath his palm. Then he jolted upright, shocked by an electrical barrier.

"This is truly a fine discovery," he said. It wasn't his voice. It was someone else's. "I've never seen anything quite like this."

Percy whipped out a scroll and a stylus and began to write a description about the plant.

"...and done!" He waited for the ink to dry and sat down, watching the plant. "What are you?"

It shifted slightly, just enough for him to notice. "Huh. Would you look at that?"

Then Percy's head shot up, hearing a distant howl. "I must leave post-haste!"

Then Percy's dream shifted to Montauk beach. The oceans raged and the skies churned as a white horse and a golden eagle rushed at each other, fighting in the shallow waters. The eagle dealt a blow to the horse, raking its claws across its muzzle, and the horse whinnied, kicking its legs at the eagle. The ground shook as they fought, lightning flashing around them.

"Stop!" Percy held his palm out. The eagle dived down, aiming for the horse's eyes. "No!" Percy roared, a blue light appearing in his palm, energy collecting from his Asymmetrical Permeable Shield. Right before it fired, everything went dark.

Percy shot up in bed, soaked in sweat. He saw lightning flashing and heard the waves pounding the beach outside. With a sudden thunderclap, Sally and Mothra woke up.

"Hurricane," Sally said, eyes wide.

Over the wind, they could just hear a distant roar, and someone knocking frantically on their door.

Sally rushed to the door and unlocked it, revealing Grover.

Grover shivered. "Searching all night. What were you thinking?" he asked Percy, who stared at him.

Sally looked at Percy in terror. "Percy! What happened at school?"

Percy kept staring at Grover, who had goat legs and hooves instead of human legs and feet.

"It's right behind me!" Grover yelled. "Didn't you tell her?"

"Tell me now, Percy!" Sally yelled.

"Uh, Mrs. Dodds was a bat monster and there were three old ladies knitting socks by the highway."

Sally's face paled, then she grabbed their essentials, tossing a jacket and a pair of gloves to both Mothra and Percy. "To the car! All of you!"

All of them rushed to the car, slamming the doors as Sally revved the engine and stomped on the gas.

Percy stared out the window, stroking Mothra's hair softly to calm himself down. Lightning flashed, thunder roared, and rain pounded down all around them. Percy closed his eyes, concentrating just a little, and expanded his Asymmetrical Permeable Shield to cover the Camaro just in case.

So. Did you know this would happen? What is happening in the first place? Percy was kind of pissed that his trip was ruined in less than twenty-four hours.

…Yes and no.

Well, that doesn't tell me jack shit.

Percy! Don't curse! Ah, right. Mothra was a psychic.

Well, frankly, I'm pissed. So tell me why this is happening to me.

…I was going to tell you before the Montauk trip. We were interrupted. But, to continue, you are a demigod. More specifically, a demigod child of Poseidon. You are powerful, Little One. And even more so with my powers. That is why this is happening to you. Things are changing in this world right now, and anyone within a mile of you can tell just how powerful you are. They want you, your power or your death.

Well that certainly explains a lot. So gods exist, huh?

I expected you to be more angry.

I am. But I'll deal with my anger later. Right now I'll just focus on getting us out of here safely.

"So you're not gonna ask questions?" Grover asked.

"I'll wait till we make it out of this mess. Then you'll answer all my questions." Percy tilted his head towards Grover, his eyes phasing into an electrical blue and his pupils becoming slitted. "Every single one. Got that?"

Grover nodded so hard he almost got whiplash.

"Where are we going?" Percy asked his mom.

"The summer camp I told you about," she answered. "The place your father wanted you to go."

"Where you didn't want me to go."

"Please, Percy," Sally begged. "You're in danger."

"Okay."

Sally swerved around a dark figure on the road. "We're almost there. Another mile. Please."

Suddenly, Percy and Mothra sensed something, snapping their heads towards the roof of the car before something behind them exploded with a blinding flash and a thunderous shockwave.

The car tilted forward, skidding through the dirt and mud before settling into a ditch. The car was fine because of Percy's shield, but the impact would rattle the occupants.

Percy shielded Mothra from the worst of the impact, and grabbed Grover before he hit his head. Sally was the only one who wore a seatbelt, so she was fine, just a little banged up. Grover was somehow unconscious even though Percy had caught him, and Mothra and Percy were the only ones completely unscathed because of their kaiju-like constitution.

"Percy! Mothra!" Sally shouted.

"We're fine! Grover's unconscious, though…" Grover was lucky Percy was wearing his gloves right now. He could've gotten off worse. Way worse. According to Godzilla, at least.

"Food…" Grover groaned. Percy rolled his eyes. Same old Grover.

"Percy! We have to…" Sally faltered.

They looked back, watching as a massive man stalked towards them. Percy sniffed the air. Not a human…

A monster, Godzilla confirmed.

"We have to go. Now!" Percy slammed against the door hard enough to make it crumple like tissue paper, and Percy wrenched the door off its hinges.

Sally's jaw dropped. "Percy? How…?"

"No time! Let's go!" Percy did the same to the driver's door, allowing his mom to climb out of the car, then Percy tossed Grover over his shoulder. "Where do we go?" he asked.

"You see that big tree?" Sally pointed at a massive pine tree on the crest of a hill. Percy nodded. "That's the property line. Get over the hill, and run towards a big farmhouse in the valley. Don't stop until you reach the door."

"You're coming too, mom."

Sally looked down at the ground.

"You're coming with me, mom." Percy grabbed his mom's hand, pulling her towards the hill, looking back at the monster. Its horns gleamed with every flash of lightning, and it was covered in shaggy, damp fur.

"He only wants you, Percy. Besides, I can't cross the property line." Percy was about to argue, but Sally shushed him. "No time. Go, please."

"No! We're all going together, whether you like it or not. Mothra! Let's go!" They ran through the rain.

Percy looked back again, the monster now close enough to be seen. "Is that the-"

"Yes. But don't say his name. Names have power," Sally warned.

Percy went faster, practically dragging his mom and Mothra uphill. The Minotaur sniffed the Camaro, then grabbed it and threw it down the road, where it promptly exploded.

"When he sees us, he'll charge. Wait until the last second, then jump out of the way. He can't change directions well when charging," Sally said. "I should've expected this, but I was selfish. I wanted you near me."

The minotaur roared, lumbering up the hill. Percy hefted Grover up and tossed him past the tree and over the hill. "I'll toss you all up before he comes." He grabbed Mothra next, sending her up the same way.

He was about to send his mom up too when she stopped him. "I can't go. I can't get past the border, Percy."

Percy frowned. "I'll take care of the monster. Go somewhere safe."

Just then, the Minotaur started charging, his horns aimed at Percy. "Jump, Percy!" Sally shouted.

Percy held out his hands and reinforced them with Godzilla's scales, grabbing the horns and stopping the Minotaur in his tracks. Percy's eyes glowed a frightening electrical blue. "You die."

Percy stomped on the Minotaur's face, and ripped the horns out of his skull. The Minotaur roared in pain, holding the sides of his head. Percy tossed the horns to the side. "I'll beat your ass six ways to Sunday."

The Minotaur roared in Percy's face, slobber flying everywhere. Percy wiped his face in disgust. "On second thought, I'll just kill you right now." Percy's spine flashed blue, each vertebrae lighting up one by one, his body glowing in the darkness. When it finally reached his skull, an aura appeared in front of his face, and Percy released the energy in a single, powerful burst. The Minotaur had no time to register the pain, his head instantly reduced to nothing, and the rest of his body falling apart, crumbling into golden dust.

Percy spat on the dust. "You've really pissed me off." His vision was then obscured by a bright, blinding light, and Percy whipped his head around to find the source. When his vision cleared up, he saw his mom, frozen in time and disappearing as if she were a holographic projection.

"No! NO! NO!" Percy felt sadness. He felt grief. And he felt rage. He screamed, an EMP pulse releasing itself from his body, the blue shockwave traveling for miles, shutting down every electrical item in its path. Cars stopped working, lights shut off, and towns lost all functionality.

After what felt like an eternity, Percy then felt Mothra's hands on his back. "Sleep." And the last thing Percy saw before his eyes closed were Mothra, an old man and a young blonde girl leaning over him with worry on their faces. Then he blacked out.

Well, that's a wrap. I hope you guys liked the chapter! I'll be updating A New Life next.
