Junior carefully approached his crying sister and reached out with his paw to touch her leg. Chibiusa winced under that touch, but when she looked into Junior's big eyes, she instantly felt guilty.

"Um, I... I'm not mad at you, sis," he said. "I mean, for wanting to attack me..."

"What am I here for?" Chibiusa sobbed. "When... when I came to life... all I felt was this... this overwhelming feeling of hatred for... for Godzilla..."

"But... why?" Hotaru asked her. "He never did anything to you."

"I dunno..." Chibiusa sniffled, for the first time in her life crying her eyes out. "I just felt it was... it was the right thing to do..." She hiccuped. "But now... now I feel as if... as if killing him... or Junior... would be the biggest mistake in my life."

Hotaru smiled. "But now you don't want to kill him anymore, do you?"

"N-no..." her pink-haired friend stuttered. "Not really..." She looked down at her brother. "You... you would really forgive me?"

Godzilla Jr. smiled at his sister and suddenly joined the hug she and Hotaru were sharing. "Hey, I can't stay mad at my lil' sister, can I?"

"Awww, what a sweet scene..." Anguirus gushed as he was helped to his feet by Battra.

"Yeah, yeah, very nice..." Battra sighed. She was glad that Junior and Chibiusa had settled their differences, but she didn't really like all this mushy stuff.

Suddenly, both of them heard the beating of wings above them, as well as something that sounded like the engine of a jet. They looked up just in time to see the giant, Senshi-fied versions of Mothra and Rodan landing next to them, followed by MechaVenus.

"Battra!" MothraMoon gasped. "What happened here?"

Battra boggled and blinked several times. "Mo... Mothra?" she finally blurted out. "Is that you?" She then looked over at RodanMars. "And Rodan?"

"What, don't you like our new looks?" Rei huffed.

"I think she's just jealous," Minako chuckled. "Um, whoever she is..."

Usagi sighed. "Everyone, meet my sister, Battra, and my friend, Anguirus... but we have no time for introductions. What's going on here?" She then saw the small group of Junior, Hotaru and Chibiusa huddled together.

Junior smiled up at her. "Mothra, come and look! It's my little sister... you're her mommy! Don't you wanna meet her?"

Now it was Usagi's turn to boggle. "M-my... my DAUGHTER?" she gasped. "But... but how...?"

"I... came to life when you carried Godzilla's DNA into outer space..." Chibiusa sniffled. She didn't dare to look at her mother. "A black hole mixed your and Godzilla's DNA and gave birth to... well, me."

Usagi's confusion slowly turned into joy when a big grin appeared on her face. "R... really? I mean... my own daughter? That's... wow! I mean..."

"Calm down there, Usagi!" Rei chuckled. "Why don't you just sit down for a moment?" Although secretly, she felt a tiny bit of jealousy that it wasn't her daughter.

"Usagi?" Junior wondered. "Who's Usagi?"

"Oh, that would be my new name," Usagi said. "Rodan decided to call herself Rei, and this is..."

"Hi, I'm Minako!" the giant battle mech waved. She then opened a small hatch on her chest, revealing two cats and two human girls, one of them looking quite airsick.

Makoto gulped. "I... I will never... fly like this again..."

Ami gently patted her back. "There, there, it wasn't that bad."

Battra instantly recognized the human girls. "The Sailor Senshi?" she hissed. "What are they doing here? This island is only for kaiju!"

"Excuse me," Usagi frowned at her sister. "But I am a Sailor Senshi as well."

"Wh-what?" Battra shouted. "YOU??"

"Yeah, and she's not just any Senshi... she's our princess!" Minako pointed out.

Battra's head was spinning. She didn't believe her ears. Her gaze then fell on the two cats that were sitting inside Minako's chest. She narrowed her eyes.

Artemis had to gulp when that pair of giant, glowing eyes glared at him. For some reason, he felt scared. "H-hi there..." he stuttered.

"So it is true..." Battra grumbled. "My sister, the princess of the Moon... and Godzilla, the prince of Earth!"

"Yes, it was a surprise for us as well," Luna nodded. "By the way, it is an honor to meet a fellow defender of the Earth, Battra!"

"Hmph! Well, at least they are polite..." Battra grumbled.

"Back to the case: Why is my daughter crying like this?" Usagi demanded to know. She came closer to Chibiusa, who still didn't look at her. "Sweetie, what's the matter?"

Chibiusa scooted away. "I... I'm not worthy of your love..."

Hotaru sighed. "Mothra-san, if I may... Chibiusa-chan wanted to do something really bad, and now she feels bad because of it."

Usagi looked at the transformed girl. "And you are...?"

"Oh, excuse me!" Hotaru said and stood up, giving the humanoid moth a quick bow. "My name is Hotaru Tomoe... I am Chibiusa's new friend."

"You are the kaiju we were following," Rei realized. "The one that the military tried to shoot down."

"Well, yes," Hotaru nodded. "But Chibiusa saved me," she smiled.

"But what could be so bad that she doesn't even want to talk to her mother?" Usagi wondered.

"She... she wanted to..." Junior gulped.

"I wanted to kill my father... and my brother..." Chibiusa sobbed.

Usagi was shocked. "Oh... oh my..."

"What? Why would you want to do that?" Rei asked.

Anguirus sighed. "From what I've understood, I think she was born with feelings of hatred... feelings that were projected on Godzilla."

"You know, you can actually sound pretty wise if you want to, buddy..." Battra said.

Usagi knelt down next to Chibiusa and stroked her hair. "Poor, little child..." she whispered.

"D-don't..." Chibiusa muttered, scooting away even further. "You must hate me for what I wanted to do..."

"Oh, but I don't hate you," Usagi sighed. "I admit that I was... surprised by what you tried, even shocked, but... I'm sure we can figure something out. Now come here and talk to me!" She gently pulled the pink-haired kaiju closer to her.

When she felt her mother's arms around her, Chibiusa instantly felt a bit safer... and warmer. She sniffled and said: "W-well, I really, really hated Godzilla... but I can't say why."

"Do you still hate him?" Usagi asked softly.

Chibiusa shook her head. "N-no, I don't... at least I don't think so..."

Usagi smiled. "There, that was easy, wasn't it? Now, don't you worry, I'm sure he won't hate you either. I must admit, it was a bit of a surprise to have a daughter I never knew anything about up to now, but actually, I'm dying to learn more more about you." She turned Chibiusa's head and looked into her eyes. "Would you like to learn more about me as well?"

"I... well, I guess so, but... do you really think I can..."

"Oh, stop that, silly!" Hotaru giggled at her friend's nervousness. "She's your mother, for crying out loud! If there's anyone in the world who can understand you, it's her!"

Chibiusa sniffled one more time. "That's what mothers do?" she whispered.

"Oh, sure they do!" Hotaru smiled. 'I just wish I still had my own mother...' she thought.

Suddenly overwhelmed by her feelings, Chibiusa hugged her mother with all her might and sobbed: "Mommy! I'm so sorry!"

Tears appeared in Usagi's eyes as well as she returned the hug. "It's all right... I'm not mad..."

"Oh, how cute!" Ami gushed. Even though the whole situation made her logic explode, she still couldn't help but feel fuzzy at the meeting of mother and daughter.

"It's times like this that I wish I had tear glands," Minako sniffled.

'Oh bother, can it get even more sappy than this?' Battra mentally groaned.

Meanwhile, Rei had walked up to Hotaru. "Say... can you tell me how you got caught up in this whole mess?"

"Well, all I can say that I went to bed as usual," Hotaru began. "I still remember how Daddy said goodnight... and I also know that I had some horrible nightmares." She shuddered. "I can't remember all of them, though... And when I woke up in the morning, the strangest thing happened... I was like this, bigger than my school, and I was lying in the rubble of, well... what looked like the remains of my school. I was confused, but I didn't want to hurt anyone, so I tried to go where I wouldn't be able to cause too much damage... I think I might have trampled a few cars on my way, though..."

"Um, well, that's okay, I guess..." Rei told her. 'Dang,' she thought. 'I'm really feeling guilty now, with all the times that we destroyed so many human buildings during our battles...'

"So... you have no idea how you got turned into this?" Ami asked.

"Ami, I don't think she can hear you like this," Makoto pointed out.

"Oh, that's right... dangit, I hate it to be much smaller than everyone else..."

"Hey, why don't you use the Transformation Wand to transform into kaiju, too?" Artemis suggested.

Ami glared at him. "Suggest that one more time and I'll forget that I am the shy, quiet one!"

Gendo sighed as he sat down in his chair. "Well, gentlemen, we must face it: Project MechaGodzilla was a failure. We will most probably never get our prototype back. But, that confronts us with another dilemma: With the appearance of the new kaiju Destoroyah, we need a new weapon to ensure the safety of Japan. And that's why I have authorized the use of Project Kiryu!"

Most of the soldiers and scientists present looked at each other in confusion. "Project... Kiryu?" Hikaru wondered. "Excuse me, sir, but... I've never heard of that project before!"

"No, of course not!" Gendo smirked. "It was top secret, and only very few people know about it. One of those people is the inventor of the Kiryu Unit... gentlemen, may I introduce you to Dr. Viluy?"

The door opened, and a beautiful woman with long, white hair, dressed in a lab coat, entered the room. "Commander Ikari," she smiled. "I came as soon as I received your invitation."

"Welcome, doctor!" Gendo smiled. To his subordinates, he said: "You see, Dr. Viluy is an expert on the field of cybernetics, and after she heard about our own project MechaGodzilla, she came up with a brilliant backup plan, in case MechaGodzilla would turn out to be a failure."

He glared at Hikaru after having said that. The young technician winced under that glare.

"But what IS Project Kiryu?" another scientist asked.

"Let me explain," Dr. Viluy spoke up. "Kiryu is my own creation, a battle unit based on the original MechaGodzilla... but unlike the first version, Kiryu is a cyborg, a construct made of both mechanical and organic parts."

"Organic parts?" Hikaru wondered. "Organic parts of what?"

Viluy smiled. Hikaru didn't like that smile one bit. "Organic parts of the original Godzilla, of course... the first version of Godzilla, which was killed by the Oxygen Destroyer! It will make Kiryu much more powerful than MechaGodzilla would have ever been."

"I hereby give you the permission to go along with your plan, doctor," Gendo said. "Kiryu's construction can begin from this moment on. Once it is finished, it will be used to rid us from the menace of the kaiju, once and for all!"

"Your faith honors me, Commander!" Viluy smirked. "Now, if you will excuse me... I still have preparations to make. My... colleagues will have to be informed, so they can start the preparations for our little project."

With a saucy wink, the female scientist sauntered out of the room, leaving behind a satisfied Gendo and a confused group of scientists.

Outside the building, she pulled out a cell phone and dialed a number.

"Dr. Tomoe? This is Viluy of the Witches 5. Mission accomplished: They are willing to let us create Kiryu."

"Very good!" the voice of Dr. Tomoe came out of the phone. "Once finished, Kiryu will be the biggest daimon ever created... and with its help, we will be able to bring my disobedient, little daughter back to us... and with her, our Mistress Nine!"

And he cackled madly, so loud that Viluy had to move the phone away from her ear.
