"NOOO!" Lute's scream rang out through the area, all fighting had stopped at the defeat and subsequent death of Adam, The First.
As the dwarf that killed Adam skipped away from him, Lute turned his bleeding body around and onto his back.
"Sir, sir! Stay with me, sir!" She pleaded with the man, who only smiled at her with one of the softest smiles he had ever given her, seemingly happy that she had not left him.
"ADAM!" She cried out once more in anguish and tears, as the man that she loved and respected and who loved respected her as if they were lovers, though they were not, perished.
"It's over." The arrogant whore who caused this declared, but Lute looked up to the man before her, the bastard responsible for all of the pain and suffering Adam had gone through glared down at her.
"Take your little friends and GO HOME!" He ordered with a roar, before relaxing again and adopting a more lax attitude "Please."
She glared down at the corpse of Adam, desiring nothing more than to strike back at the bastard and the monsters around her, but with a reluctant heart she-
"F...for." Everyone's attention, from the exorcists to the "Hazbin Hotel crew", Lucifer and the entirety of hell was drawn to Adam, miraculously still alive, though barely.
"Adam?" Lute called out, desperate to hope but scared to do so.
"He's still alive? Tougher than I expected." Lucifer couldn't help but commend the First Man's tenacity.
"DAMN! Even after all that punishment bastard's still twitching!" Vox complimented him.
Such was the sentiment many held for the man right now.
"For...forgive me..." Adam managed to get out, much to the confusion of everyone. Almost everyone.
"Forgive you? Like fucking he-" Charlie begin with anger, before being cut off by Adam.
"Forgive me...Go...jira." With that, the First Man perished. Leaving everyone confused about what he means.
"Go...Jira? Who's Gojira?" Charlie couldn't help but ask.
Lute was the first to realize what Adam meant.
"He...He promised him he wouldn't suffer anymore, that he wouldn't feel pain anymore." She realised with slight terror confusing the demons even more, not even Vaggie knew. But the Exorcists did.
"What, is he some boy toy-" Angel was about to mockingly ask, but was interrupted by a sound that Heaven and Hell alike heard.
A single sound conquered all others throughout the two realms, from the heights of Heaven to the lows of Hell.
The sound of a piano.
Persecution Of The Masses(1172)
Everyone looked around, searching for the source of the music.
"The fuck, is this Alastor messing with us?" Vox couldn't help but wonder out loud, but he knew it wasn't that fucker, none of his music unnerved him as much as this one did.
Lucifer glared down at Lute "Oi, if this is your doing knock it off." He demanded of the angel, even as some string instrument took over from the piano, though he was shocked when instead of obeying or doing any expected actions she...started to pray.
"Oh Heavenly Lord, please spare us your wrath and the wrath of those who were slighted in life and death..." She went on, babbling on endless praises to God and pleas of forgiveness and mercy.
"What the fuck?" Vaggie questioned, never before seeing Lute so...terrified. She looked as if she was about to be face to face with God and judged harshly.
And that terrified her in turn.
But they, and all of Hell, were even more freaked out when every Exorcist started to get on their knees in a submissive position and pray with all of the sincerity in their hearts in fervent terror.
"Oh Lord, please..."
"Most gracious and Merciful..."
"Oh, Giver of Justice..."
On and on, hundreds of Exorcists prayed like none had truly prayed before.
By now, all of Hell was sufficiently terrified, for the people who had slaughtered countless hellspawn and been beaten back by only Hell's strongest, now prayed for salvation from something that terrified them.
And the music reflected that(1:06), sounding like the shrieks of terror that all felt in their hearts.
Meanwhile, in Heaven, Sera and Emily stared with abject terror as a massive lumbering mass of power and anger stomped towards the gates of Heaven.
"W-where is he going Sera?" Emily couldn't help but ask. In the 26 years since his death, never had he left the Great Sea of Tranquillity after reuniting with Adam, a place where the old friends could lay, comforted by each other's presence. He moved for nothing, nothing but Adam.
Sera had a feeling, a feeling that was confirmed by the anger, confusion and fear gripping the titan's heart.
"To grieve, to mourn...and to avenge his oldest friend." She quietly replied as the city of Heaven was silenced in fear and reverence of the God Incarnate before them.
Back in Hell, storms brewed, wind whipped about yet knocked no one but debris away, creating a scene of biblical proportions.
"Seriously what the fuck is going on!?" Lucifer demanded an answer, fear and confusion gripping him. And he received his answer in the form of a guttural, bellowing roar.
SKEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOORRRRRRNNNNNNNKKKKKK
All prayers were silenced, and the music turned severe as lighting struck the skies of Hell.
And then the instruments softly spoke words without a voice.
Perse-cution,
Lighting blazed through the sky, illuminating all in blue wrath.
Of The,
Tremors shook Hell and Heaven as the cause of it all approached the portal
Masses,
And then, with a blast of blue atomic destruction personified, it entered Hell in the empty land between the hotel and Pentagram city.
Sacred,
A nuclear explosion flourished there, its power blowing away the storms and wind, creating a minor vacuum. And as it Mushroomed, it happened.
Blessings,
It coalesced together to form a terrifying shape, bit by bit, as air and wind rushed to fill the vacuum and the fire died down, the charred skeleton of a dragon formed.
Count for,
The awe-inspiring sight did not end, as more of the smoke came together to form the black skeleton, it moved, slowly, its head turned even as its legs and lower body formed.
Nothing,
Its flesh came, quickly from its feet it materialised, forming corded muscles of strength, scales stronger than the foundation of existence manifested, forming a monstrous and awesome body. And as it finished turning its head, red eyes of wrath and power gazed upon the Hotel and the people there.
Then the song spoke.
Perseeeeee,
Cutiooooon,
Of Theeeee,
Masseeees,
As the song, no, the dragon sang, it walked towards the hotel, its thundering footsteps shaking everything and everyone, though none dared to move through their awe and terror. Those who did move only did so to avoid being trampled under the might of it as it caused destruction, by walking. Except for the Exorcists, who were miraculously spared being crushed.
Sacreeeed,
Blessiiiings,
Count Foooor,
Nothiiiing,
Soon, Lucifer and the Hotel residents had to move away from the corpse as they did not want to confront this God before them. All but Lute, who remained in a position of submission the entire time like the other Exorcists.
Perse-cution,
Godzilla leaned forward, bending his knees to be as close to the ground as possible without going on all fours.
Of The,
Lute stayed where she was, frozen in terror of the God, who only Adam regarded without fear, for he had nothing to fear.
Masses,
Godzilla looked down at the corpse of Adam, his final expression etched with sorrow, a sorrow he felt tenfold when he realised he was dead.
Sacred,
In denial, he nudged Adam with a gentleness that was not possible for him and a soft cry, trying to awaken his friend. Yet, he remained still, not responding.
Blessings,
Confronted with the truth, He roared in grief, the sorrow he had not felt since he thought his son dead rising, as the King mourned the loss of the human who was kind.
Count for,
Indeed, all of Heaven and Hell witnessed as Godzilla, The Hakaishin, King of Monsters, cried for Adam The First Man. A sight that those who had heard of or knew the legendary beast did not think possible.
Nothing,
Charlie snapped out of her terror and awe, disbelief and some hate filling her as she bore witness to the King's roars of mourning.
"Why, why are you crying for him!? He was a monster, he killed millions of his descendants willingly! Why are you crying for him?!" She could not comprehend how anyone could love Adam, for he was just a Mysoginistic, cruel, sadistic, narcissist. How could anyone love that she thought?
Godzilla, halted his mourning facing Charlie with a snarl of wrath, making the arrogant demon regret speaking out as those baleful eyes looked into her soul.
With a flex of his power, Heaven and Hell were struck by visions. No memories.
Let,
Of destruction as a great rock fell, killing everything, including his mate and their unhatched son.
No,
Of wandering depressingly across the barren Earth, refusing to die even though he had lost everything.
Blame,
Of meeting a man and his sons, who fought for survival, of saving and befriending them. Of finding something to live for.
Lie At The Innocents,
Of Happiness as they won, of sadness as he perished in peace, of hope as they moved on, of mourning as the wife died. Of loss as division conquered their children.
Who Have,
Of nothing but pain and suffering as Adam's children drove him away. Of Loneliness as he stayed within Lagos island, of anger as he saved some of Adam's children from being slaughtered.
Prayed,
Of agony as he was torn apart by their cannons, of torture as their destruction mutated him, of wrath and anger as he took his revenge, of death as he was killed and revived. And the cycle continued, until his son, who he had thought destroyed, returned to him. Then he had daydreams of happiness. Before the Crystal and Red demons took it from him. Nothing but pain and suffering and Hell.
Then he died for the last time, and awoke in a heavenly realm, greeted by a weary but familiar old friend to comfort him. To promise him.
"Gojira, I promise you that no matter what, you will never suffer an ounce of what you have again. Not in the Afterlife. No longer."
OOOOOOHHHHHHH,
GOOOOOOOOD,
GIIIIIVVVEEE,
UUUUUSSSSS,
YOUUUUUUR,
PROOOOOO,
TEEEEEEEC,
TIOOOOOON,
But then he died. He was murdered. Adam had suffered once again. Suffered thanks to the Shameless One.
The being who had unleashed evil into creation, who had caused the rock, that he now knew was a garden, to take everything from him.
The one responsible for their pain. And was too prideful to care about it. For he was too absorbed by himself.
The memories ended.
The begging began.
Emily begged him not to do it.
The demons begged him for forgiveness.
The Exorcists begged him to spare them.
Let,
Adam's body glowed, fading from material reality.
No,
He became a soul, and rushed to Godzilla, being absorbed by him.
Blame,
Feeling the soul of his friend, of the man he knew he could trust, he fulfilled his last wish.
Lie At The Innocents,
With a pulse of power, Eight Great Etheral Gold Wings sprouted from his spines, hovering over and near his back.
Who Have,
With a flare of his power, he granted Adam's wish, healing the Exorcists and sending them to Heaven, who began to sob in relief as they were spared.
Prayed,
With a menacing growl, he faced the still praying demons, who increased their begging tenfold.
LEEEEEET,
Everyone, from the Vees, Sins, Overlords and every citizen of Hell got down on their knees and begged.
NOOOOO,
And indeed, had Adam lived he would've granted them mercy and sparred them. If he were his son, he would've spared them anyway.
BLAAAAME,
But he wasn't his son, and Adam was dead, and they had celebrated it until He had come to take His retribution. They were not truly sincere, not like Adam.
LIIIIIEEEE,
Some gave up their praying and attempted to escape Hell, to avoid his punishment. His golden wings turned red with bloodlust and rage, and Hell was sealed off from Creation.
AT THE INNOCENTS,
Realising that there was no escape from Him, they started crying as fear and horror gripped them tight. They didn't bother to run, for they could feel it, a power that transcended time and space. And inescapable power.
WHO HAAAAVE,
With tears in her eyes, and no longer in her demon form Charlie cried out "WHY?! I just wanted to help people, to give everyone in Hell a chance at redemption! Why do you have to destroy everything!? Please find it within yourself to have kindness in your heart!" She pleaded with the wrathful deity.
PRAAAAAAYED,
Godzilla merely growled in blinding wrath, and with another pulse of power, showed her and everyone why. Of how his life was Hell, because of her father, who thought himself superior and righteous and doomed everything. Because of her mother, who whispered to the humans to sin, spreading evil across the Earth so she may conquer creation. Because of her, she could not perceive the perspectives of others, and she was not the only one to come up with the idea of redeeming sinners. Of why no one tries to. And now because of her arrogance and pride, his friend was gone.
And all responsible for their suffering will now die for it.
If Your High Praise,
Cracks filled the air as his spine started to rise. flashing with a strong blue nuclear power.
Is All We Have,
As the spines reached the beginning of his tail, they flashed an angry red, thrumming with greater power.
LEEEEEEET,
Then as they reached his back proper, the glow of his spines became a malevolent purple, like it was destruction conceptualised.
NOT US BE,
And as it reached the back of his throat, his gaping maw opening with a deep inhalation, finally, it turned into an all-powerful purifying white, becoming true destruction.
WITHOUT YOU!
And with a slam, his spines fell, and he fired his Wrathful Atomic Judgement Blast.
AN: Just a one-shot of how I think Godzilla in Hazbin Hotel would actually go after I saw the...other HHxG crossovers and wasn't satisfied with their rather, un Godzilla-like portrayals.
And yes, I used Heisei Godzilla because he fits in the best IMO. Also because he is awesome.
Hope you guys found this awesome.
Now, back to slaving away at Galaxy!
