History Shows Again and Again

Chapter 5

March 17th, 2015

Zeek's first impression of the twins was that they were more wise then what some others gave them credit for, namely Rick. They had introduced themselves to Zeek as Doctor Chen and Doctor Ling. He had gotten along with them well so far though they mostly talked about their work with Mothra's egg in the Temple of the Moth in China.

He had liked listening to them and what they had to say about Mothra, the legends in the region about her and other aspects. His first and foremost area will always be Godzilla, but that doesn't mean he didn't like to hear about the other creatures.

Currently, he was sitting in the cafeteria with the two, eating and talking about their respective creature interests. He was listening to the twins' theories about Mothra, although it seemed like they believed them more than just theories. It was a rather pleasant conversation that Zeek was enjoying.

"Have you seen Gojira with your own eyes?" asked Ilene after she took a bite of her food.

"No, Never seen the big guy in person. Have either of you?"

"No." Ling shook her head. "We've been in China for all of what happened in San Francisco and with the MUTO Prime." She paused for a moment, her eyes flickering down to the red composition notebook in front of him that read 'Theories On the Titanus Gojira Species; Volume 1'. "What's that?"

"Oh, uh, I've decided to do some...theories while I'm here. The big guy doesn't show his face much, so this is what I've been occupying my time with when Doctor Serizawa and Doctor Graham don't have anything for me to do."

"Can we see?"

"There's only...five entries at the moment." Zeek handed his book to Ling, who opened to the first page where it had theories one and two. The first being a theory on the species' long lifespan and the second about the potential place of Godzilla's home- the home being in Hollow Earth.

They turned the page and read the third theory, this one about the MUTO's EMP and why it worked on Godzilla. The next page was Godzilla's food and finally, Godzilla's breath.

Zeek took a sip of his drink as they read all of the theories and, once they were done, closed the book and handed it back.

"You really like to theorize and speculate." Ilene spoke, causing Zeek to shrug.

His name was being called and he started to stand. "Duty calls. Thank you both for having these conversations with me. I enjoyed them."

"We enjoyed them as well." Ling smiled. "Hope we get to talk like this later."

"I'm sure we will."

Zeek grinned and walked away, happy to be able to share his thoughts and theories with more people other than Ishiro and Vivienne.
