Kaiju Fighters Ch. 42 New Years Special Final
Sometime later, everyone is back in the big room, determined to finish off this celebration. Someone has set up a basic timer to start the countdown for the New Year.
A couple women starts surrounding Anguirus. He was starting to feel crowded. His savior comes in the form of his wife.
"Sorry, ladies," she wraps an arm through his. "This handsome fella is already taken. Did you get our room?"
"I did," his face reddens. "Is Amy taken care of?"
"Mrs. Miyagi actually insisted she stays the night."

Manda and Rodan are sitting at a table chatting when Koshiro and his friends approach them dragging a twitching man. "This the guy?" Koshiro asks.
The sea dragon looks at the man and it is the guy who bumped into her earlier. "Yes."
"Look, ain't saying nothing," the man looks around Manda as if he cannot tell where she is. One of Koshiro's friends reaches into the man's jacket to pull out a green purse. "I've never seen that before."
Manda is handed the purse. "Thank you," she looks in to see her moisturizer still in there.
Koshiro jerks his head to tell his friends to take him away.
The man starts yelling. "What's the big deal!? There was nothing in it except some lotion!"
"So, Manda," Koshiro leans against the table with a smirk. "My offer still stands."
"I have to decline," the sea dragon tells him.
Koshiro then narrows his eyes at Rodan, "He your boyfriend?"
The flyer looks at her, hopefully but bites his tongue when she says, "No. He's just a friend and frankly, I don't think I'm ready for this dating thing."
.oOo.
People start shouting, "10!"
"Still not having fun?" Kimiko once again approaches a lone Gojira in the corner.
"9!"
She only receives a grunt.
"8!"
"Let's see if we can make our own fun," She grabs his arm and pulls him to the middle of the dance floor where several people are still swaying to what little music there is.
"7!"
He tells her, "I never danced before."
"6!"
"Dancing is just moving to the music," Kimiko puts his arms around her waist before wrapping hers around his neck.
"5!"
She starts swaying. "See? It's easy."
"4!"
Gojira follows her lead.
"3!"
"Thank you, Kimiko. For everything."
"2!"
Kimiko has no idea what came over her. She just reaches up and pulls him in for a kiss.
"1!"
No one is entirely sure what happened. The lights just went out and the only glow was a blue light coming from Gojira. The lights come back on and the glow fades, but all eyes are still on the two.
Kimiko breaks apart and her eyes widen. Gojira just stands there, trying to process what happened as his glasses fall off. She soon realizes that everyone is staring at them. "I shouldn't have… I-I need to go," the agent runs out of the room, leaving Gojira once again alone.

Early in the morning, Moll approaches the thirteenth person. "Have you seen a woman that looks like me but wearing blue?" she receives yet another no. Moll has no idea what to do. She thought that letting Lora enjoy the party would be great for her sister. But since leaving her, the older Elias lost mental contact with her and is unable to sense her thoughts.
Moll holds her hands to the temple of her head and mentally calls out, Lora, Lora? in response, Moll hears a psychic scream. "Lora!" she shouts and runs through the halls of the hotel and reaches the room where the psychic scream originated from and starts banging on the door. "Lora! Lora! Are you in there? Open up!"
The door opens to reveal the younger Elias in one of the hotel's robes. "Morning, Moll!"
"Lora, are you alright? I heard you scream."
"I'm fine," Lora waves her sister off. "I just woke up and forgot where I was."
"Really?" Moll was not buying it. "Why do you have a room here anyway?"
"I just got a little tired and did not want to bother anyone for a ride home. So, I spent the night here."
"Well then, I'll help you clean up," the older sister goes to walk into the room only to have the younger one uses her arm to block the entrance and holds the door close to her.
"That's not necessary. I can take care of it myself."
Moll tries to make a mental connection to Lora and is unable to. "Lora? You're not letting me in. You've always let me in."
"Maybe I just want a little privacy. We are always together, doing everything together. I think I need a little independency for myself."
"Are you sure?"
"Never been more sure about anything as I am about this."
Moll looks down, saddened by this declaration. "If that's what you wish," and the older sister walks away.
Lora closes the door, takes a step, and ends up kicking an empty glass bottle. Her dress is on the floor with a red jacket. The Elias clutches her head and slides to the floor, crying.
The closet opens and Baragon walks out wearing only his pants. "Lora, I didn't mean…"
"I know," she tells him. "My sister will be so disappointed in me. Moll can never know. No one can."
.oOo.
Back within the security room, Mosura sits next to a security guard as they view the monitors. Moll soon enters the room. The guardian of peace turns to her priestess. "Something bothering you, Moll?"
The Shobijin takes one of the spare seats in the room. "Lora just declared her independence," and sighs.
"It was only a matter of time. She is her own woman you know?"
"I know, but it has always been the two of us. We are the only ones left of our kind."
Mosura lifts her hand to her chin as a thought comes across her mind. "That is true, but it also isn't," that statement only got a head tilt from Moll. "Back in the old world, you were in fact the last Elias, which is why the two of you valued each other's presence and that of your older sister despite your differences. The two of you always being together made it hard for Lora to find her true self."
Moll just rubs her eyes, "I think I need a distraction. What are you doing, Lady Mosura?" then looks to the screens and sees a video of Manda washing away a group of men.
"I'm going through the security footage. Making sure that we didn't miss any of the Simeons," they now come across one of Anguirus carrying Liz into the room bridal style.
"Wait!?" Moll holds her hand out to the security guard. "What's that?" they zoom in on a video that shows Lora and Baragon stumbling to a hotel room's door. Lora takes a swig from a wine bottle before handing it over to Baragon who does the same. They laugh at something, and the Elias tries her hardest to use a keycard. Once the door finally opens, Lora drags the kaiju in.
Mosura looks back at her priestess. "Moll?"
"I'm going to kill him!" she states. "Then I'm going to kill her!"

Zeus, the High Commander of the Simeon's finds himself thrown in the back of an armored vehicle.
A soldier comments, "We'll soon have to start pairing you guys for roommates. Your choices are a spider, or a slime ball," he laughs as the doors shut.
The High Commander looks up at his men. All who were the last hope of their people.
The vehicle drives for a while before coming to a sudden stop. A commotion is heard from the outside and soon the doors are torn open. Standing outside of the vehicle is a man wearing a black suit with white armor pieces on his chest, shoulders, and around his wrists. His draconic helmet only reveals his red eyes. Zeus knows a soldier when he sees one.
A white claw raises to the side of the man's head, "They're all here. Requesting extraction," behind him a portal opens revealing a lab of sorts. "This is your only chance of freedom."
Zeus stands to take the lead for him and his men's freedom.
Once everyone is on the other side the portal closes.
"Well done, X," deep voice calls out. The Simeons are now approached by a man with golden dragon wings, horns, and tails. "My friends, I have a proposition."
