The Beast in the Ice (FinalGoji in the world of Kaiju Girls)

Chpt 6 - the Island

   Swimming through the water, the wounds of the previous battle went mostly numb despite the cold and saltiness around him.
The cuts from Gigan's saw, keenly the one in his shoulder, and the X scar on his chest had healed into just that; scars that would fade in time. The cold was soothing after a while, but the salt stung and burned his tenderness.

   The excitement; the high from the first truly intense battle in his life had worn off, and now he felt like he'd roll over and die any moment now. Sharks were typically afraid of him, for good reason, but now they smelled a potential feast they would never be able to finish. Godzilla's blood followed him like a fog rolling in, that even tainted the ocean.
   Aimless, tired, and hungry, he searched for a place familiar to rest. But nothing. He shut his eyes for his lids were getting heavy, and he finally thought he was done. Before he could sink, two small, gentle hands came to his sides and lifted him above water. Gojiran's head breached out of the water under him, while Mothra flew overhead, inspecting the damage.

"She really did a number on it, Mothra." the Goddess didn't reply, grimacing at Godzilla's condition "We can't let Gidrah get her claws on it if she wants this beast."
"I know. This creature, whatever it is, if controlled could be our greatest foe yet."
"Ehhh." Gojiran wasn't completely in agreement with that statement. She considered herself and Godzilla equals. Mothra sighed but knew there was no point in arguing, especially since they did seem relativistic. Then the latter Kaiju Girl proposed an idea. "We can take it to my grotto, that way he can heal." Gojiran had an unsure look but began swimming toward their island home anyway, with the downed King on her back.
"You sure it'll work?"
"My grotto was made to heal the wounds of all living things. Just because you use it the most does not mean others cannot." Mothra said in a soft silky voice, making her partner shrug, and hide her mouth in the water.

The next sensation Godzilla felt, his body tensed up as a cold, but soothing ointment enveloped his body. He growled, his tail splashed, but he soon calmed down and rested, only his head and dorsal plates visible under the bright glowing water of Mothra's healing grotto. A groan came from him, causing some bubbles, and he fell out of consciousness for a moment. He faded in and out of that until he woke up with a shock. Rearing up, he shook himself of the thick water that was more like ointment. His eyes landed on the light out of this cave immediately and walked out to see the rainforest of Monster Island.

   Godzilla could smell multiple "kaiju" and his ear twitched as he heard them faintly. The Monster King growled, walked in that direction, and noticed the battle even from afar. A red pterosaur shape bolted up into the air, weaving around a blue pillar of light that he recognized as an atomic breath, while the former thing he was familiar with; Rodan.
   He followed Rodan with his head, slowly charging his atomic breath before he predicted the former, knocking the pterosaur out of the air with a surprised scream.

   Gojiran was stunned at what just happened; Rozan had been shot out of the air by another blue beam, and looking from where it came, she saw the black shape on top of a hill 500 meters away.
   "Look's like the big lizard's awake." She said, underlying her anger for the beast and what it'd done, and was probably proud about it. That disturbed her; a beast as intelligent as this one. Not wanting him to get too proud, seeing as her sparing partner was out of commission, and wanting to try her new gains she ran up on Godzilla and greeted him with a punch to the gut. Both of them looked each other in the eyes as the blow connected, yet Gojiran soon felt pain fire up her arms and shook her hand, while the former seemed unphased. Now she was flabbergasted, expecting that to have at least put it on a knee; just how strong did it grow?

Answering her internal question, Godzilla spun his body around and smacked her in the side with his tail, causing her to begin spiraling to the side, and then rolling down the hill. He roared in triumph; two foes bested in one day, at this point he would beat the world. That's when he saw two more figures approaching him, both smelled uncannily similar to two other kaiju he met and shared some attributes with them; one having the spiked carapace of Anguirus and the other having the same crown on their head, but they weren't either Anguirus or King Caesar. He was thrown for a loop, and almost caught off guard by the King Caesar girl, with a kick to his head, but he ducked it. The Anguirus faker following this up with a knee hit him in the face with shocking strength, more than he'd have ever felt be put in a blow before that caused him to stagger and be open to both of them. Godzilla now defended himself from two assailants; one being flexible and faster than him, while the other was nearly on par with him. The spin move Anguirus usually used was mimicked by the girl copying him, and just like the monster, he spiked her up like a volleyball with his tail, but couldn't bat her from the Caesar girl going for a flying kick at him. Both he and her traded blows, with him mostly blocking or tanking them, while she dodged them completely. Once she tried blocking, and it completely rattled her. Godzilla then felt himself get hit in the chest by a spiked ball his weight, staggering him before he felt it land on him, and the Anguirus girl was back in the fight, for now she just sat on his chest triumphant.
