Plans
JSDF Hanger, 8:30 pm;
The Mobile HQ had landed in the massive hanger a few hours ago and Alex had gone straight to work on his jobs. The first two, the Karyu and the Rumbling were sister ships. Both looked similar to giant guns but they were capable of firing partial cannons, proton missiles, and a powerful maser cannon from the front. The third was the Gotengo which resembled a spacecraft with a large drill on the front. It was the most powerful of the four ships, equipped with partial cannons, missiles, a maser and freezing maser both fired from the drill, and of course the drill itself was a weapon. The Gotengo was also able to fly and go underwater. The last of the four was the Garuda, pretty much just a wide winged craft with two large maser cannons and a small arsenal of missiles but it was the most mobile than the other ships. The crews of Karyu and Rumbling were already going through their control drills, Alex had already finished programming them and moved on to the Gotengo. Kuroki walks into the cockpit of Gotengo to find Alex under one of the computers. "How's it going?" he asks.
Reacting, Alex sits up and slams his head of the computer. "In addition to the fact I'm now bleeding, not good." said Alex, rubbing his head.
"Why? You finished the Karyu and Rumbling pretty quick."
"That's because their sister ships, their programming is identical. The Gotengo and Garuda are larger and need different programs and parts. Your workers thought they'd all need the same and got me the tools and codes for all four ships."
"Can you still do the job?"
"Not without the right parts, I can make the code on my own but I need certain processors for these two."
"What are they?"
"I just need something a lot faster than what I got for Karyu and Rumbling, if I use the same thing for these two, the response time will be off by about ten seconds and Godzilla could fire off an atomic ray. I could probably pick it up something at the nearest Radio Shack I could make do with."
"Ok, go get it, Gordon just got back, take him and a soldier with you for security. There are people out there that would die to get someone with a brain like yours."
Kuroki walks to the room nearby, where Val and Greg are looking over some data on Godzilla. "Anything?" he asks
"Well except for the fact that Godzilla's cell have a tremendous healing factor and we'll ether have to kill him in one shot or disable his regeneration." said Val.
"Even though he has that healing factor, we might be able to drive him back into the sea if we do enough damage so he has to take time to heal, as long as we don't make him too mad." said Greg.
"Well, hopefully these four ships can at the very least do that much." said Kuroki.
The soldier and Gordon pile into the black van beside Alex. "Sir, are you sure you don't want me to drive?" asks the soldier.
"No way, I've put to much time and money into this thing to let someone else drive it I don't have to." said Alex.
"Are you-"
"Don't make me use the ejector seat."
"You put an ejector seat in this thing?" asks Gordon.
"Why not? I'm rich and love spy movies." With that Gordon repositions himself on his seat. "Don't worry, I don't use it, unless of course I need to."
An hour later they are coming back with the parts Alex needed. "So you can get Gotengo and Garuda running with these things?" asks Gordon.
"Positive of it." said Alex.
"Good, cause if the Gotengo goes down because you messed up, I'll break you in half."
"Why do you care about the Gotengo more than the other three?"
"Because I'll be in it when it fights Godzilla."
"Good point."
The van continues down the road, unknowing that they were being watched by a group of Red Bamboo agents. "So, how does the boss want them? Dead, alive, or in pieces?" asks one of them.
"He wants the scientist alive, feel free to kill the others." replies Patrick before getting in a helicopter and flying off. The others get in a jeep and take off after Alex's van.
"So it was your idea to have the Gotengo's giant drill? It does have some good uses against kaiju." said Alex. A bullet flies past the window. Alex almost crashes before regaining control. "What the heck?"
"We've got company. Red Bamboo, looks like Kuroki was right about people wanting your knowledge, unless they just want Godzilla to level Japan." said Gordon. Gordon pulls out a pistol and starts firing back at the agents.
"Why does weird stuff always happen in Japan?"
"Dang it, I can't get a clean shot. You wouldn't happen to have some other special features to this heap do you?"
"Smokescreen or oil slick?"
"Ether."
Alex presses a button beside the steering wheel. A stream of oil pours out of the tailpipe. The jeep heads left to avoid it. Gordon fires his pistol, taking out the passenger. "And time for the smokescreen." said Alex, pushing another button. Smoke pours out and engulfs the jeep, the driver careens out of control and crashes off the road. "And Val said that modifying my van with spy gadgets was a stupid idea."
"Thanks, I'll send someone to retrieve the driver if he survived." said Gordon, pulling out a cell phone.
An hour later, Alex continues to work on the ships while Gordon and Kuroki question their prisoner. "What does Red Bamboo want?" asks Kuroki.
"I'll never tell you. We will rule the world and there is nothing you can do to stop us." said the agent.
Gordon gets up in the man's face. "Tell us or you'll be facing life in jail!" yelled Gordon.
"I do not care, once we rule the world, my faithfulness will earn me a great reward. Besides if I told you anything, the boss would kill me."
Kuroki and Gordon walk out of the room. "We won't get anything from him." said Kuroki.
"Stupid terrorist, don't these guys know that we've got more important things to do than interrogate them?" ask Gordon.
"I don't think they do. He didn't once mention Godzilla. The Red Bamboo must not know he's coming back."
"Hope they have a base on the shore of Osaka, you know how they like using abandoned warehouses as bases."
"Hope we can stop Godzilla before he gets into the city but we'd better start the evacuations now."
Ok, that wasn't my favorite chapter to write but now that its out of the way, we can have some Godzilla vs Millitary action as next up Godzilla encounters the blockade at sea.
