Ok, sorry for taking so long to post, been busy. This chapter has some kaiju action but the brutal kaiju battling isn't till next chapter. I'm using a monster from the Gamera series because he's perfect for my needs and I didn't feel like making a new kaiju just for the role he's going to play, I did give him a new power though. Anyway, enjoy!
Death Surfaces
Anti-Kaiju Division, 8:30 am;
Bill looked at the monitor at something heading straight for Naha, Okinawa. It wasn't Kashun, it was another monster that had appeared, a deep-sea monster. It was dinosaur-like, its back had many spikes pointing downwards the total length. Its skin was brown in color and from what they could tell, was male, overall, he resembled a T-Rex but with longer arms, plus the spikes, as well as a frill on his neck that was retractable. Godzilla wasn't the only kaiju to have attacked Japan, in fact it was such a common occurrence that they had a 'Kaiju naming list' similar to the type used to name hurricanes. This kaiju had been dubbed Zedus and ranking wise, was a 3, average strength but still dangerous, particularly that after feeding on the remains of the humans in the sub that woke him up, Zedus had grown a taste for human flesh. This was also bad because most of the navy was in the area around Odo Island and thus couldn't be called upon to battle the vicious lizard. A group of Masers was based on the island but were on the other side of the island and would take awhile to reach the city to battle Zedus. Their only Anti-Kaiju Mecha, the scientists called it the 'Mobile Operation Giant Universal Eradication Robot Aero-Type', everyone else just called it Moguera, was presently shut down for upgrades and couldn't be brought online soon enough to intercept Zedus. Bill typically didn't like sending normal weapons again kaiju higher than grade 2 but they didn't have a choice this time and a platoon of tanks, helicopters, and bazooka troopers were waiting for Zedus on shore. Bill sighed. "What are the odds this will work?" asked Bill. Bill was actually praying that it was Zedus responsible for what happened for what happened on Odo Island, not Godzilla, that would allow them to finish a weapon capable of killing Godzilla, he knew if they couldn't kill Zedus with conventional weaponry, there was no hope of defeating Godzilla.
Ken shook his head. "Unlikely." he said.
Naha, Okinawa, 9 am;
The small army stood on shore, weapons pointed at the bulge of water surging towards the city. Once it was in range, the tanks and choppers opened fire with their rockets and missiles, once it got even closer, the troops opened fire with their weapons as well. Zedus rose from the ocean with a roar, feral eyes locked on the shore. As the army opened fire once more, Zedus' thick skin took the weapons without much damage. Zedus spun around, swinging his tail, tearing through the helicopters and sending them to the ground in flaming wrecks, ones rotors flew in all directions, impaling some poor soldiers and letting the smell of blood into the nose of Zedus. Next he opened his mouth and his long, razor pointed tongue shot out, driving through a tank and pulling it back into his maw. He repeated this until his prey began to retreat. His frill extended and he spat out a stream of venom from his mouth. It landed on the tanks, dissolving them into nothingness. He stomped ashore and scooped up humans and dumped them into his maw, loving the taste of human blood. He swung around and tore apart buildings in search of the delicious humans he craved.
Anti-Kaiju Division, 9:15 am;
Bill sighed. "A slaughter." he muttered. "I knew it wouldn't work." he said. "Zedus is only grade 3 but he's still too much for normal weapons to handle. We need Moguera but there's no way for it to be prepared and launched in time to avoid huge casualties."
"If Zedus hadn't taken a liking to humans, we might have been able to take him somewhere he'd be able to live in peace, from what I can see, he's just a dinosaur, nothing against humans, he just got a liking to eating us." said Ken.
"Yeah, not all monsters have to be killed, I realize that, but Zedus does, that's a fact."
Ken gasped. "We've got some sort of moving epicenter heading for Naha." he said, looking at a computer.
Bill took a look at the computer. It was true, a large object was moving underground straight for Naha. "What is it?"
"Could be another Kaiju, maybe Zedus has attracted it."
Bill nodded, it was known for a fact that Kaiju were territorial, if Zedus had got the attention of another kaiju, it was likely going to confront him. "ETA?"
"12 minutes."
"Well maybe this other monster is grade 3 as well and they'll kill each other, or its weaker and will weaken Zedus up for us."
"Unlikely."
"Why is that?"
"Its radioactive."
Bill sighed, atomic mutations were always more powerful than normal, meaning this creature was likely above grade 3. "Get those masers there fast." he said. "And get Moguera online ASAP, if those too head for the mainland, Moguera is the only hope we've got."
Naha, Okinawa, 9:20 am;
Zedus continued his rampage, devouring any human he could find. He headed for a hospital, licking his lips at the thought of the venerable humans within. He tore its roof open and buried his jaws in, devouring every human he could find. Soon however, his feeding was interrupted by the sound of splitting concrete. He turned just in time to see a beam of orange energy heading for him and leaped out of the way, despite his size, he was an amazing jumper, easily avoiding the beam, which obliterated the hospital. Zedus growled, looking on the form of the Kaiju Tyrant, Kashun.
Kashun roared loudly at this smaller monster. He considered Zedus another possible victim, more blood to be shed, but he wanted to see Zedus tremble in fear, beg for mercy, but Kashun would give him none. To his surprised, the ancient dinosaur let out a roar of challenge, apparently unafraid of Kashun. The two exchanged roars, normal in kaiju battles.
Anti-Kaiju Division, 9:33 am;
Bill watched as Kashun erupted from the streets and attempted to kill Zedus, he was equally shocked that Zedus dodged the beam. Bill began to shake, having a flashback to the night 20 years earlier when Kashun had destroyed Tokyo, but of course Bill believed that Kashun was Godzilla. "Is that…" stuttered Bill.
"Godzilla." finished Ken. "He's mutated much more than before, heck his jaw is so mutated he can't even fire his atomic ray from it anymore." he said.
"I almost feel sorry for Zedus…" said Bill, looking into the eyes of Kashun, hatred burning in his eyes, unknowing the beast he saw wasn't Godzilla and he was blaming an innocent beast for this monster's sin.
Ok, probably not worth the wait. Anyway, next chapter is a monster fight, Kashun vs. Zedus! Oh and with Moguera, I know my redoing of his full name isn't the best but I didn't want to use the real one because his perpose for creation was fighting monsters in general not just Godzilla.
