I do not own Godzilla.
I got my first review for this story, special thanks to Marina for some constructive comments. I'll try to include some more Godzilla/Siseir POV in following chapters.
Nick woke the next morning to Monique's insistent voice that he get up and get his foster son to put down the boat. He tried to pull the blanket up over his head and got it snatched away.
Wake up.
No, he didn't want to wake up.
Wake up!
"Alright, alright I'm up!" he groaned, glaring up at Monique.
"Good, we have arrived. However Godzilla refuses to listen and put down the boat." Monique sounded miffed at the giant lizard for his playful antics.
"I'll go talk to him." Nick dragged himself off the cot and onto the deck of the ship, where Godzilla could see him.
Parent. The voice sounded overjoyed and amused.
"Godzilla, what would you like to tell me?"
Siseir is mine. Nick could have sworn the big lizard was smiling.
"That is wonderful Godzilla. Would you mind putting down the boat?"
Why are we here?
"Godzilla, we are going to be living here now. This is now our territory." Nick was expecting a torrent of anger, so the lack of anger surprised him a lot; "You aren't angry?" the giant head was looking around, surveying this new area.
New territory, bigger territory. More space. Now Godzilla's mind voice was approving, and Nick caught the shift of amber eye as the big lizard glanced over at where Siseir was floating and sunbathing.
"Well, that's good." In the light Nick was able to really survey Siseir for the first time, and he thought she would be a cute match for his foster son. As soon as the boat got put down Monique guided it safely into the dock where Philippe was waiting for them.
"Nick, it is good to see you my friend." Philippe thumped the much smaller biologist on the back after shaking his hand, "Come, this island has been a pet project of mine for three years now, and was started as soon as my government saw just how beneficial HEAT is to the world."
Godzilla and Siseir were curious, so they watched from the water while HEAT was shown around their new home.
The new headquarters was deceptively huge. The island itself was roughly 8 square miles of land with a quaint little house on one end and a perfect white-sand bay on the other side. At least, that's what it appeared from the outside.
Once you walked into the quaint little house you were presented with a hallway with one door that led down to the underground complex. Thankfully for the team Philippe was smart and had only about one square mile of the island permeated with walkways and the like. There was a lab that put their old lab to shame, a section of the new headquarters was rooms for them to furnish to choice, there was a fully-stocked kitchen, a pantry, a room for the cabinets of files, a little side-room with parts and tools, a security office for Monique, a sprawling computer with enough access to make Randy weep for joy, and a gigantic room that was clearly built with the intent of letting Nick or someone else come in and be with Godzilla.
Nick and the rest were completely flabbergasted. Apparently even Monique had not known of this little side-project of her boss'. Needless to say, Philippe took the open-mouthed wonder as compliment to his work.
"Wow. Just… Wow." Elsie said, earning nods from the rest of her team.
"Welcome to France." Philippe said.
Monique shot off like a bullet to the security center to check it out. Everyone else began unloading the Heat Seeker into the appropriate rooms. Sometime during the day Godzilla found a cave that suited his and Siseir's tastes and that was the last the team heard of those two until nightfall.
Nick felt Godzilla calling him from outside just as he was about ready to collapse onto his bed and sleep like a dead thing. He dragged himself outside, "What's up Big Guy?"
This new territory is good.
"That's good. Where is Siseir?"
Sleeping. The smug and content undercurrent of thought told Nick all he needed to know.
"So when do I get scaly little grandchildren?"
Godzilla rumbled. Soon maybe.
Nick laughed tiredly, "Yeah, well I'll call for you tomorrow, I'm heading into bed."
A pleased rumble… very close behind him.
Oh gods no.
SLURP.
And I have to take off, have fun reading.
