Chapter Five: Godzilla Raids Again!
Godzilla advanced up the street, scanning for his prey which he had swam miles to face. He looked up towards the edge of the city to see countless rows of tanks and artillery blocking his path inland, But Godzilla didn't care, his enemy was near. Godzilla began to make his way through the empty city, nearing the massive Castle which stood high on a hill, well away from threats which no longer existed.
Godzilla lifted his foot to take another step forward, but without realising, he lowered his foot into the moat and the ankle became wedged. Godzilla shrieked in fright as he fell against the side of the Castle, his massive skull crashing into the wall sideways. The building crumbled as Godzilla slammed into it and tried to stand up again. He roared in frustration as he fell with the building, buried beneath the rubble.
"Hunter! c'mon, we've got to get a look!" Max called out as he watched the small screen which displayed the castles' fall. Before he could, Hunter was distracted b his radio headset as someone tried to talk to him. "Mr Storm, My name is Agent Thompson of the CIA. I will be running the military end of this op from our front line camp at Suminodo Station. I have been authorised to use heavy weaponry if Godzilla gets too close to the city outskirts. I am here to monitor your progress and ensure your groups' safety." The voice cut off as everyone looked to Hunter. "Look, if we can lure Godzilla away from the edge of the city, Thompson won't get the chance to open fire." He slammed his foot on the accelerator and spun the steering wheel, causing the Anguirus to spin 180 degrees and take off towards Godzilla. Angel looked at her viewscreen, making sure that the rubble from any buildings didn't block their path ahead. She looked down at the built in Geiger Counter as the needle suddenly skyrocketed.
Godzilla rose from the wreckage of the Castle and roared into the air as he emerged. The gigantic Lizard looked round, searching for prey when suddenly, sthe street ahead was filled with shadow as a massive form descended on them. Mothra let out a shriek of challenge as she approached Godzilla. The King Of The Monsters roared as the flying creature slammed into the side of him, claws flailing. Godzilla tried to swipe the creature away by spinning and swinging his tail. Mothra dodged the attack and the tail caught in a building, before bursting out and sweeping away five cars as they shot into the sky. Motra raised her abdomen and let a hail of stingers loose on the other monster. The sharp hooks pinged off of Godzilla's' armor like bullets off of a tank as he slammed his eyes shut. He whipped his tail behind him as a cyan light glowed between the armor segments, His spines began to light up with the glow as well and he opened his mouth. Godzilla let out a burst of his atomic breath, the burning beam shot through the air at frightening speed and scorched Mothra as she fired another hail of stingers.
Hunter skidded to a halt again and turned to his group, "alright, I want all cameras on now, both standard and thermal." He turned to Jackie. "Launch the drone." He said and she nodded, pressing a button in front of her and grabbing the nearby joystick. A small, quad-rotorred helicopter drone detached from the top of the Anguirus. "Piloting systems online, Gigan is ready to role, time to see this battle from every angle possible." Jackie said as she piloted the drone towards Godzilla.
The built in camera hung from the underbelly of the 'Gigan' Drone, its' view was completely obscured by Godzilla's' body until the UAV was hovering higher than Godzilla. Jackie zoomed in to get a view of the effects of Godzilla's' breath on Mothra, but the creature was already flying away, down towards the port again. Mothra shot across the water as she fled, Godzilla turned and gave chase. Before Jackie could steer the drone out of the way, the tiny vehicle was knocked out of the sky by one of Godzilla's' spines. "Great!" Jackie yelled as the camera feed went dead. "we lost Gigan 1". Godzilla barged down the street, knocking buildings and cranes aside as he neared the water. He bodyslammed the water and sunk up to his back and gave chase to Mothra, his tail slashed at the water behind him, propelling the massive beast forward.
The Anguirus stopped in the middle of the street as its' occupants climbed out, baffled by how the battle begun and ended so quick. Hunter looked up as two choppers closed in overhead. The Chinook that Maz was flying hovered down over the APC and the cable connected. The second helicopter - a massive,Mil Mi 26 Halo, landed next to them and a man got out, mid twenties, short-cropped hair and a black suit and tie, aviator shades over his eyes. "Good evening Mr Storm, Agent Thompson at your service. There's not much time to explain, please get into the helicopter." He pointed to the open ramp and the group boarded the helo.
The two helicopters flew over the partially destroyed city of Osaka as they neared the military forward base. "I thought the United States never used this type of chopper!" Hunter had to shout across the bay as the engine roared overhead. "We don't, and neither to the Japanese Self Defence force. We hired it from Russia a few days back to use for Operation Heisei. A united mission between America and Japan. We will monitor the two monsters and will resort to heavy weaponry if necessary. " Agent Thompson called out. "I have been given direct orders from the UN leaders to take responsibility over the military interactions with Godzilla. You and your group, Mr Storm, will have command over the scientific end of the stick."
