Alan Jonah turns on his laptop as he comes into contact with a message. He clicks the private message and a blank character came on with audio only. The title of this character was simply called, "Apex Friend". A deep and garble voice spoke and Mr. Jonah listens. 

Jonah: It seems you still need my help, Mr. Chief Information Officer of Apex.
CIO of Apex: Alan Jonah... It seems you are doing well after all... You're plans has a turn for the worst.
Jonah: With Mrs. Russel and her daughter in our custody and the Orca in hand... Nothing can go wrong, yet. Ghidorah just push the big red button on releasing the other Titans.
CIO of Apex: I see... I would like to tell you that I had achieve of finding a same specimen of our own enemy but it's only an egg. 
Jonah: You do realize that if he finds out... He'll come for it now matter what but the King is distracted with the false King.
CIO of Apex: All it takes is to make a shield of preventing him from coming. I'm already on the constructions. 
Jonah: Do whatever you want. I still have a deal with Mr. Walter Simmons. That Ghidorah head in Mexico is still there and I'm going to get after all this mess.
CIO of Apex: Simmons... I shall remain here in the Himalayas for now. I'll do what I do best.

End of the communications as the Orca and Madison Russel go missing. The events go as it does. Emma is dead, Ghidorah is defeated, and Godzilla reign as King. Time for rebuilding commences. 

3 Years after the Battle of Boston.

Alan Jonah and two of his elite bodyguards follow him down a tunnel lead by a Apex guard. A circular door opens to a Biotech lab. Passing through the pathway, Jonah looks around to see all this high-tech stuff and something that he found interesting. A Japanese scientist working on G-cells and has a Rose next to his desk. They all move on down the pathway to then soon meet up with the CIO assisting with his workers. A rather muscular man with a dad bod. He has a great scruff and Burnette hair. His eyes are of a green hazel yet he is of mixed origin. Half Indian and Grecco-American. The CIO was over looking the information on his tablet with some of the scientist and assistants correcting some areas. The Apex security guard leaves the area as he nods to the CIO. The CIO knew Alan was there and tells the workers to continued on. He still was busy and they follow along. Walking from this walkway to a gateway then finally a large secure room that hosted something. They finally reach where Apex has been incubating 2 eggs in separate rooms. Alan Jonah and his bodyguards stood there waiting for the CIO. He had a slightly deep and gruff voice yet was calming.

Apex scientist 1: It's still growing inside the egg, sir. It will be due in about 2 and a half years.
CIO of Apex: I see. We still have enough time to block any signals that will attract the big guy. How about the other egg?
Apex scientist 2: Same here. Nothing new yet.
CIO of Apex: Good. Continued on your work and monitor at all times.

The scientist and assistants scramble to do their job. The CIO looks to Alan Jonah and gives him a warm welcome.

CIO of Apex: Welcome to the Apex BioTech Lab Number 84. Come. Come with me to sit on the deck above. I notice you look different.

Jonah looking  like he always does on the face and notices who this person was. 

Jonah: If it isn't young Constantine Singha... I haven't seen you since I saved your arse back then when you were but a young lad.  
Connor: My nickname Conner will do just fine, Mr. Jonah. Shall we head up deck.
Jonah: If you wanted to know why I look a little younger was because you gave me that refined Ghidorah regenerative samples.
Connor: Ah... I almost forgot I gave you the first refined samples. Now lets go.

They walk out of that area then head up to the main control deck. The deck can see below the vast network of movement and loading. All well organized and uniformed. They enter in to what seems to be a luxurious lounge office. Jonah's guards stood by the door as he and Connor walk up to the wide window. Connor goes to his desk and opens up the screen computer. He then projects it to the wide window. He then shows him the remarkable search he has made and the progress. Jonah comes closer to observe.

Connor: Look at this... This base in the Himalayas with all this information. Two eggs with two different species. An ankylosaur titan nicknamed Anguirus. And this one... oh hoho... this one is the grand prize of it all. 
Jonah: Another Godzilla... You now have out done yourself, Connors. 
Connor: Not only that but we have found a similar specimen patrolling on the west coast of South America. Mostly around Peru, Ecuador, and northern Chile. 
Jonah: Ah... That one. A slimmer genus of the Godzilla family tree. And mind if I put my information here too.
Connor turns to Jonah wanting to know this other titan with eager.
Connor: What is it? A new titan.
Jonah: Yes. One that looks like an aquatic Spinosaurus spotted here in the waters around the Ryukyu Islands... All the way down to the South China and Java seas. 
Connor: Excellent. A migratory animal. 

Both men smile to see more and more titans being discuss and where they are spotted. 5 were dotted all over the map but 3 were located in South America. One in the Indian Ocean and, of course, the affirmation of "aquatic" Spinosauridae. And one extra elusive unnamed Titan located somewhere in the mountains of Tibet and near them. The locals there say it was a great wind dragon that came out of a lake. Its skin coloration was that of a reddish orange like fire. Though it has not been completely confirmed but acknowledge.

Now. 2024. August 24th.
Location: Hollow Earth. Site 33.

In the midst of battle, Kong battles a giant rock crab that was spitting out hot boiling foam at it. He dodges the boiling foam that stinks of whatever it ate and a strong sulfuric smell. Jia and her adopted parents of Nathan and Ilene Lind begin to watch from afar as Jia cheers Kong on. The great ape was protecting a school of capybara like creatures with tusk like a boar. Great snouts like a tapir. The capybara like creatures were almost the same size as a sker buffalo but those are the adults. Though they don't mind much of others their size but would run away from larger or dangerous foes. Some of the herd ran while some scattered from the rumbling. Team Jia was monitoring the herd from afar early that day when suddenly a rock crab titan came scuttling in and look like it hasn't gotten it's fill. It was assume that he just came from a battle just by looking at the bruises and scratches. But it can be an elderly specimen with combat experience. Kong on the other hand was nearby. He protects Jia and her adoptive parents as well as the herd of capybara like creatures. 

The Ape King finally manages to get the upper hand of the rock crab titan. Which one member of Team Jia finally named the rock crab, Ganimes. Kong finally throws a rock at it to get distracted. The crab titan then blocks its face with his huge sharp claws. The great ape kept throwing some more until he reaches the mountains. He comes to a halt from throwing and climb as high as he can. He sees a perfect tree size on a plateau then looks down. He sees a sizable crack on the shell and finally makes a plan. The great ape brushes off the branches and prepares to take a leap of faith. He takes a deep breath, climbs down a bit then leaps in from the side of the mountain with a tree stake. The stake then pierces the large crack of the Ganimes. The crab finally gives out a final screech as Kong then roars in triumph and pounds his chest. Kong was slowly becoming the undisputed king of the Hollow Earth. Jia then waves to him as the ape looks back at her. He smiles and she smiles. Ilene and Nathan then come up to Jia as they put their hands on her shoulder. They also wave back at Kong. Kong then leaves to go take a wash and heal while Ilene lowers her self to talk to Jia.

Ilene: Now we can study the friendly capybara like creatures.
Jia smiles and responds: *They are by far my favorite creatures. And are great pets.
Nathan: They are the most pet friendly of them all and easy to train.
Jia turns to her dad: *Of course, that's why we have one that's a lighter color with white stripes.*

Nathan just smiles and understands it all but something off in the distant was heard. The trio look to their right where the flying creatures flew up. Kong lends an ear and notices this sound to as he was very familiar with it. His eyes widen then looks off to the distant of the flying colorful toucan like creatures coming his way. Kong brushes them off and made a grunt of fear. A cry similar to that when he was younger or just a babe. A cry for help and running away from predators.
