Megalon was left nervous after the night of the party. Incredibly nervous. "I hate you guys. I really do." She muttered as she idly poked away at some ore in the cavern walls.
"You literally made up that lie." Gigan said as she inspected the ore the gathered on the ground, scanning and tapping them. Mecha was putting the ones she approved of into her chassis. "You shouldn't be complaining."
"Why do I have to get him a gift!?" Megalon exclaimed as she turned to point at the half mechanical Kaiju. "Why don't you do it, you said it was a duo effort, Gigan!"
"More believable that way." The cyborg said with a shrug before her eyes narrowed. "That scaly douche wagon knows me way too well."
"He seems to know a lot of things others don't." Mecha commented. "In a way, I respect him. He uses intimidation to get what he wants and knows things he doesn't tell others. If he didn't do that to me too, he'd be great."
"My sentiments exactly." Gigan added dryly.
"What the hell am I even gonna give him!?" The insect monster said in a panicky tone, looking around frantically for an answer of some sort.
"A shiny fucking rock, who cares!?" Gigan exasperatedly screamed as she tossed a select ore to Mecha. "Dude's default is clearly anger or pissed. As long as you keep him out of our hair, it's fine."
Megalon stomped on the ground and hissed monstrously before yelling, "I need to keep him out of my chest cavity too, ya know!?"
"Good freaking lord, I'll help you find something if it will shut you the hell up." Gigan sighed as she pinched the bridge of her nose. "Damn."
"Thanks I guess." Muttered Megalon as she slumped against the cave wall.
Suddenly, Mecha froze, "Hey, two monsters just entered the cave network. Probably Anguirus and Godzilla."
"And that's our cue, come on Mecha." Gigan ordered plainly. "You know, Megalon, Godzilla may, emphasis on may, be able to help you." She told her as she and Mecha went up a secret route to the topside.
Megalon sighed and kick at some rocks.

Gojira grabbed Junior's foot and gently tossed her back for her to land on her butt. "Another failed sneak attack. It helps if you don't yell so early."
"I yelled like a second in!" She complained as she hopped back up on her feet, not at all deterred. "And stop sounding so bored! I'm attacking you!"
"Well, you are trying." He muttered, making her growl. "Where's your mother?"
"Busy with Anguirus and Mothra when I saw them." She answered plainly. "Why? Afraid she'll finally kick your tail next?"
"Hmph." Gojira snorted and rolled his eyes, fighting off that urge to smirk as it tugged at the corners of his lips. "Hardly. Though I am eager to see what she'll do this time."
Junior nodded and started looking around, kicking at some dirt as she asked. "Ya know... Rodan is-"
"Gojira! Gojira!" Came the call of the approaching and very cheerful Orga. "Have you decided on that examination yet?"
Gojira and Junior let out annoyed exhales, the former turning around to give her a plain stare. He thought about it last night and decided no only for him to think on it some more again later, coming to a new conclusion of, "Sure."
"Excellent!" The bio-mechanical life form exclaimed with an odd crack in her voice before she coughed into hand, speaking more in her usual rough tone. "You have no idea how long I've wished to study your unusual anatomy to at least some degree since I arrived here."
That made Gojira huff out some smoke, saying, "Let me be extremely clear; what you learn will stay between us and you will respect my boundaries or my fist will end up between your rib cage. Understood?"
"Doctor and patient confidentiality, affirmative." Orga immediately answered.
Gojira sighed and asked, "Alright, so how do we do this?"
"You'll need to lose your clothing." Orga said immediately. Again, that sensation came back, that uncomfortable feeling of being nude.
Junior's face became green and she gagged. She started walking away, saying, "Goodbye, weirdos."
Gojira shrugged and began taking off his clothes only for Orga to hold up her hands, "Uh, would you not prefer doing this somewhere more private." Then she said in a more deadpan tone. "Open fields don't exactly help keep examinations confidential."
Gojira fixed his pants and he coughed into his hand. "Oh, right. Follow me, freak."
He lead the alien to the lava pits which seemed like a good idea as Gojira figured no one would be there during this time. It was pretty much one of the few places of the island that he and Orga could go that afforded them some privacy, due to the human tech snooping around and other monsters about.
Orga deemed the area suitable enough as well, "Alright Gojira, take off your clothes when you're ready... which is hopefully now."
Gojira let out a confirming grunt and dropped his pants before removing his gloves then the foot wear. Orga whistled. "You have fine musculature. Little to no body fat. Strong limbs. No annoying mounds of fat on your chest." She grunted out that last part somewhat resentfully.
"Shut up and conduct your measurements swiftly, freak show." Gojira ordered, not at all comfortable with Orga's lingering gaze. Reminded him far too much of his world's Orga.
"Right." Orga sighed, wanting to growl a threat about talking so rudely to one such as her, but stopped herself since she liked keeping her teeth in place. "Now, make a T pose."
"A what?"
"Simply hold your arms out." She deadpanned, even going as far to show him.
Gojira nodded, mimicking the pose, and allowed Orga up to him to begin her brief, painless examination. "Hey, watch your fucking claws, freak show!"

They heard and smelled him along with the alien in the direction of the lava pits. Rodan and Queen Caesar slowly crawling through the bushes, the former whispering, "Alright, it's just us right now until our short and thick dino gets back with our taller thick dino."
Queen Caesar nodded, saying, "Indeed. Still, is this truly necessary, especially now? He hasn't done too much since the whole alien debacle."
"Of course this is necessary! He's still keeping secrets!" Rodan hissed, giving her friend her usual heated glare. "Just because he's growing on us doesn't mean he's all good!"
Queen Caesar quirked a brow, "Who said anything about him growing on us?"
Rodan quickly turned away and growled, "Exactly, so let's spy on him because he hasn't grown on us yet!"
"Right." Drawled the mammal Kaiju Girl before she whispered a tiny chuckle as she followed behind her pal, "Freaking tusndere."
"Take it easy." They heard Gojira bark as they neared his location.
"Apologies. Slip of my hands." Replied Orga.
"Yeah, mine might slip too if you do that again." He threatened.
Rodan and Queen Caesar turned to each other with confusion before hastening their pace just a tad. They came upon a naked Gojira T posing in front of a clearly kneeling Orga. Their eyes immediately bulged. ""Eh/Que!?""
They saw Orga poke something below the proverbial belt. "How does it feel when I do this?"
"Don't do it again." Gojira hissed.
"We'll say negative." Orga nervously noted. She coughed into her hand and smiled, "Okay, now we get to the easier part, do hold still."
"What the fuck is going on here!?" Roared Rodan with a scowl.
"Gah!" Orga jumped back while Gojira turned to them with a surprised glare.
"You maggots are actually getting better at sneaking." He hissed as he turned to them.
"Ay! Put your clothes on, Pendejo!" The pterodactyl Kaiju hissed, covering her eyes with her wings. Gojira rolled his eyes, wondering just what was bothering her so much about mere nudity… and why he was feeling even more bothered by it now.
Queen Caesar scratched the back of her head, looking between Gojira, his clothes, and Orga. "Can we get some context?"
"No!" Gojira answered.
"Of course." Sighed the Kaiju Girl, chastising herself for asking that.
Rodan, as usual, would have none of it, "No to you! Orga, what is all this!?"
Orga's eyes darted to Gojira's, who's eyes were faintly glowing, and she gulped, "Under penalty of guaranteed mutilation, I'm not allowed to say."
Rodan, still covering her face, growled, "Grrrr, weird ass freaks."
"Nosey maggots." Gojira growled back as he puts his clothes back on. "We'll do this some other time, Orga."
"What!? But the fun part was coming up." Orga practically whimpered.
"Ugh." Gojira shook his head and took his leave. "I'm going somewhere else, don't bother me."
Once Gojira disappeared into the trees, Orga glared at the Earth Defenders, growling a sarcastic, "Thanks. Thanks a lot. Your timing is impeccable!"
"What were you up to, punetas!?" Rodan roared.
Orga's scowl deepened and she hissed, "I told you I can't answer!"
Queen Caesar shook her head as the monsters got into an argument, pinching the bridge of her nose as she sighed, "For fuck's sake."

Godzilla stroked her chin and looked around the cave, inspecting it. "You're positive the tunnel system's good enough?"
Anguirus nodded. "Mhm. Me and Megalon here have worked on it when we could."
"We've made exits and exits for our exits." Megalon added excitedly and proudly.
Godzilla hummed before asking, "How far can it go from the island?"
"The furthest tunnel leads out into the middle of the ocean several minutes away from here." Anguirus answered. "That was the one me and Mudak went through."
"And the one where guys saw something weird right?" Godzilla questioned.
"Right."
"Seal that one off." Godzilla immediately told them. "We're clearly not the only ones down here. This takes away from our advantage." Then another quick idea hit her. "In fact, why don't you put in a few duds. The more we throw off whatever else is here, the better."
Anguirus gave her salute, "Aye, aye, captain. Come on Megalon."
"Sounds good to me," Megalon froze after the first step only to freeze before rushing up to Godzilla's face. "Wait!"
"Gah! Holy shit, what!?" Godzilla yelled, shoving the alien back.
"If someone were to get you a gift, what would you want!?" Megalon desperately asked.
Godzilla stared at her for a few seconds before shrugging. "A nuke." She said in a dull tone.
Megalon stroked her chin as she assessed the difficulty of getting one. "I see… anything easier?"
"I don't fuckin' know, anything else." Godzilla said with an annoyed huff, moving past Megalon. "It's the thought that counts."
Megalon stomped and shook her head. "No it isn't!"
"Yo, Megalon!"
"Ugh." The Kaiju girl groaned from the lack of help and knew to cut her losses for now. "Coming, Dig Buddy!"

Queen Ghidorah looked towards the sea as more ships came into view. It wasn't enough to be too alarming to her, but they were becoming more of a concern as time went on. Were she in better spirits, she would've made a bigger fuss about it, but she still had bigger problems on her mind.
Her defeat at the hands of Gojira and Godzilla. Gojira and Godzilla. She couldn't get them out of her mind, the power they held, the secrets that male had.
Power. Godzilla was ripe with it, Gojira even more so.
At the very least, she wasn't in a funk about it anymore. Not as much as before.
"So annoying." She heard Gojira grumble as he arrived from the bushes. He walked near the beach, still a good distance away from her, and watched the ships along the horizon. He snarled in with a monstrous hiss, "Fucking humans. Worthless cretins, all of them."
Queen Ghidorah arched a brow. Another anomaly. Why not kill all these lower life forms if he despised them so much? Why does Godzilla let these detrimental creatures live free from her control when she and her fellow monsters could subjugate them?
Why were two of the most powerful beings of this planet so utterly lazy?
From the corner of her eye, she watched Gojira take his usual position, unknowingly emphasizing her thoughts further, making her let out a low sigh.
When Gojira closed his eyes, she took that chance to stare at him. She wanted to demand answers, to throttle him, to make him tell her why he was so powerful despite his unhealthy habits unsuited for a Kaiju such as him. But she couldn't nor was she too comfortable with annoying him as she once did, not right now.
Instead, she decided to merely walk up to him then say, "Male Lizard."
This time, he responded instantly, albeit with his eyes still closed. "Go back to sulking and leave me alone."
She ignored that and continued. "I have a question."
"I don't have an answer, try someone else." Gojira rumbled, doing his best to remain lazy and sunbathe.
Again, she ignored his response and went on to ask, "How did you get so strong?"
Gojira let out a deep exhale, grunting out a word he heard Orga mutter, "Genetics."
Queen Ghidorah shook her head. "Impossible. That should only be the answer for my kind and I am the pinnacle of our bloodline."
Gojira let out a malicious snicker, "You finally as disappointed as I am?"
She held back the urge to curse at him in favor of asking, "What truly made you so powerful? Push ups? Sit ups? Juice, and I don't mean the fruity kind."
Gojira opened his eyes to stare at her, a mixture of infuriated and confused. "What the fuck are you on about?"
"The secret to your power! What is it!?" Queen Ghidorah roared, frustration getting the better of her in her turmoil. "At least do me one small kindness, just a tiny one, and tell me what made your kind surpass me!"
Gojira was about to snarl at her, to demand she fuck off or feel his wrath. Instead, he decided to remain outwardly calm and stand up to stare at her with a less rage filled expression. "You truly wish to know that badly?"
"Yes!" Queen Ghidorah hissed. Her eyes narrowed and then her tone became more monotone. "And don't tell me some bullshit friendship power because you are literal antithesis to that trite."
Gojira sighed and looked her in the eyes to say, "For once, I think I'll be merciful and let you in on something few know."
"Hm?" She was taken aback by this and her expression softened just a tad. 'He's really going to tell me? Just like that?'
"The secret is," Gojira paused for moment to let the weight sink in before he spoke again, "one hundred miles of swimming, one hundred naps, a hundred hours of sunbathing, and a hundred whales."
Queen Ghidorah's expression was blank for a moment before she muttered a small, "Fuck you."
Satisfied, Gojira walked away, snickering to himself, "Ironically, you'd might actually become a decent Kaiju that way."
"You're not entirely wrong. Still, dick move." A tiny voice spoke near his right ear, making his signature frown reappear on his face.
"Sister, more tact please." A more dignified voice said on his left.
"More worthless gnats grace my presence." Gojira hissed.
"Eh, you're getting slightly better. Take out the worthless gnat parts and you might woo me." The right Shibojin dryly replied.
"Rot." Gohira barked out. "What do you pets of the moth want?"
"Mothra wishes to speak with you." The left Shibojin answered.
The Kaiju Boy rolled his eyes, grunting, "She too lazy to come and get me herself?"
The right Shibojin gained a mischievous smirk, giggling, "Too busy snogging Godzilla more like it."
His eyes were suddenly zeroing in on her, "What'd you say, wretch?"
"Ignore her." The left Shibojin immediately told him as she flew into his view, "Our goddess was simply preoccupied."
Gojira snorted out some smoke, "Whatever. Where is she?"
XXXXX
A cave inside a waterfall in a more secure part of the island. Gojira should've figured she'd go for this.
He grumbled about her gaudy nature and entered. A spacious cavern it was and along it were markings, elaborate cave paintings of silhouettes he faintly recognized and did not.
He swore he saw himself along the walls at one point, but he may have been mistaken. He may get some answers soon enough, he figured.
"Ah, Gojira! I'm glad you came." Came the jubilant voice of Mothra further down the cavern.
"Spare me your pleasantries, bug." Gojira stopped in his tracks to growl at her. "What is it that you needed me for?"
"I need nothing truthfully. Just a talk." The goddess chirped.
"You instantly both bore and annoy me." The Kaiju Boy replied in a dull tone that matched his unamused expression. "Fuck off."
Just as he was about to walk away until Mothra said, "It relates to Godzilla and Junior."
"How so?" Gojira hissed as he stopped in his tracks.
"They're taking a little more of a liking to you." She happily explained. "Godzilla respects your power and Junior finds that you can be enjoyable to be around. The party from two nights ago certainly helped."
Gojira's eyes narrowed. "What's your point, bug?"
She giggled, "I've also noticed you grow a tad more social."
"What of it?" Gojira grit out.
"Gojira... I don't want to wallow in your negative emotions." She spoke calmly, in a softer tone.
"Stop right there." He snapped. "How much do you know? I mean exactly how much do you know?"
"Like I told you before. Glimpses, both into the past and future." She said neutrally. "I'm hoping you come to open up more rather than let your past plague you."
Gojira shook his head and hissed, "You wouldn't understand, you sanctimonious human coddler."
Mothra nodded and strode up to him. "Indeed, I wouldn't. But rather than curse at me, why not help me understand?"
"Why would I talk to you of all creatures?" He hissed, fists clenched at his sides.
Mothra shrugged. "Then who else? You won't talk with your newfound family."
"They're," Gojira nearly snapped as he knew her implication but caught himself. "They're merely my kin."
Mothra gave him a sympathetic look. "We both know you feel more than that."
"Don't speak like you know me." Gojira hissed again. The deja vu was starting to get him. "You're better off ceasing your attempts to get me to open up... you can't solve everyone's problems, certainly not mine."
"But what about you?" Mothra asked.
"Like I said, stop concerning yourself with me." Gojira was looking for a quick subject change to emphasize his point and pointed to the cave paintings. "Instead, tell me about these."
"Ah, yes." The goddess walked up to them and brushed her hand against the paintings. "Prophesies and tales of the past."
"Prophesies." Gojira muttered, his eyes darting to the painting that possibly resembled him. Then he noticed the one that made his breath nearly hitch.
Mothra noticed what he was staring at. One of the paintings was of Ghidorah... multiple Ghidorahs. A horror he never thought of, one he'd never thought would have to come to be. "They've been here before you know. They're natural born planet killers."
Gojira didn't say anything, not even a snappy retort. His eyes were locked onto one of the figures. A figure that made his blood boil. That figure above what may have been Queen Ghidorah's were it not more bulky than the other ones. More powerful looking.
Mothra placed a hand on his shoulder and softly asked, "You know one of them, don't you?"
He immediately knocked her hand away and walked off, "I'm leaving. You've wasted both my time and yours."

Godzilla, Megalon, Orga, and Anguirus were lounging around in the lava pits, save for Orga who was literally hanging outside to merely chat with the Earth Defenders on one of her three favorite subjects; biology.
Godzilla narrowed her eyes, "So, Ghidorah doesn't have lungs?"
Orga shook her head in confirmation. "Nope."
Anguirus asked, "How the hell does she function then?"
"Good question." Orga chuckled to herself at that little barb against her... former master. "But, she has a specialized organ that-"
"Are you telling them my biology without my explicit permission?" Hissed the subject of discussion as she floated down into a separate lava pit next to the other bathing Kaiju Girls.
"Gah-fuck!" For the second time Orga was startled, only this time, she fell into a lava pit head first.
"Bumbling homunculus." Queen Ghidorah hissed with an eye roll.
As Orga lifted herself from the lava, clearly annoyed, Anguirus deadpanned, "You know you really don't have to be afraid of her anymore. It's not like we'll let her kill you "
"It's an automatic response." Orga grumbled as she rose from the lava, glaring at the snickering Megalon. "Sadly, I'll have to adapt out of it, though that will take a while here."
"Hmph." Queen Ghidorah stared at Godzilla for a moment before turning away and going on with her bathing.
"Anyway, no lungs?" Godzilla urged on. Meanwhile, Megalon looked between her and Anguirus, mainly there chests, with her eyes narrowed and began muttering to herself.
Orga nodded. "No lungs, but she has a specialized set of organs that allow her-"
"Shut your mouth, Orga." Queen Ghidorah commanded.
Godzilla waved it off. "Ignore her, keep going if you want."
"Gladly." The scientific alien muttered with a malicious smile, delighting in spiting her former queen and alpha. "Anyway-"
"Gah!" Now Maglon made a cry of fear as she noticed Gojira's approach.
Gojira was surprised for a brief second before giving her a confused glare. "The hell's your problem?"
"Nothing." Megalon muttered, doing her best to play it off. "Very random question, what type of gifts do you like?"
Gojira immediately answered with, "Your corpse."
Megalon blinked and Queen Ghidorah let out a quick snort of laughter to her annoyance. "I see. Maybe something less detrimental. To me at least."
"Fish and whales." Gojira deadpanned as he went to take off his clothes. "Weird ass space creatures."
""Don't lump us in with her."" Orga and Queen Ghidorah immediately growled.
"Hey, at least have the decency to do that before hand and make it quick!" Godzilla complained, covering her eyes as Gojira lost his clothing. Orga sighed, still upset about not finishing her scans. Megalon was still curious about it and Anguirus... felt weird looking at him. Her cheeks a tad warm.
Queen Ghidorah rolled her eyes at Godzilla's attitude, "I don't know you're complaining. It's a free show. Eye candy."
"How did you work for that?" Anguirus questioned the other two, non perverted aliens once Gojira got in.
Orga and Megalon gave her a deadpan look, saying, ""Penalty of death.""
"Ungrateful little shits aren't they?" Queen Ghidorah drawled, scrubbing her hair.
"Or you're a shitty leader. Could be that?" Gojira grunted to Queen Ghidorah's irritation.
Megalon whistled, "Talk about a hate boner."
""A what?"" Everyone except Queen Ghidorah and Orga asked.
"It's a term that combines both the erect male genitalia and his hatred of Queen Ghidorah." Orga explained.
Megalon let out a simple. "Nerd."
Orga scoffed. "Simpleton."
Gojira hissed out, "You're both weird and stupid."
""Who's worse?"" Asked both aliens as Junior made her arrival.

Mecha and Gigan were watching human ships go by. Mecha was making finger gun motions and pretending to blow them up since she couldn't do that for real. "Boom. Hehehe."
"If only we could do that for real." Gigan sighed wistfully. She then grumbled, "Damn Earth Kaiju and their worthless laws."
"These laws kept the order until you Ojetes showed up." Said Rodan as she and Queen Caesar came over from the jungle.
"Damn, speak of the devils." Gigan groaned while Mecha folded her arms.
Queen Caesar asked, "What are you two up to?"
"What else, being bored." Mecha said dryly. "Seriously, how come we ain't looting, pillaging, or at least committing some arson?" The robot seemed to perk up and asked, "Oh, what about all three?"
"How about you keep giving you sake to help you hold off on that?" Asked Queen Caesar in a deadpan tone.
Mecha rolled her eyes and shrugged. "Eh, fine."
"Are you guys go do anything about those lower life forms?" Gigan said, jerking her thumb back towards the human ships. "They're getting invasive."
"We have a plan or two." Answered Queen Caesar before she pointed between the two cybernetic Kaiju Girls. "All you have to is follow our lead "
Gigan's eyes rolled. "Wow, how reassuring."
Rodan snorted. "Stuff it, mierda cíborg."
Gigan narrowed her eyes and retorted, "Follar, aves fuego."
Rodan and Queen Caesar were momentarily caught off guard by that until Mecha added, "We're alien robots, er, in her case, a cyborg. Spanish ain't hard for us to learn."
"How about you learn to do some robot stuff and make those ships go away while your at it?" Rodan grumbled as she started walking off, Queen Caesar right behind her.
Gigan and Mecha looked at each other in consideration of her words until smirks came across their faces. Not a bad idea to try later after they finish their resource collecting.
