The GameraVerse: REMASTERED

4: The Heisei Era

As Reiwa's vision returned to him, he was immediately struck by the sight he saw. There, across a city that was burning, was Heisei, but he was on one knee, badly wounded by a hundred cuts across his body. Reiwa reached out to the mana of the world, and realized just how low it was. This was probably what caused this disaster.

He began to walk to Heisei, but suddenly stepped on something. He lifted his foot, seeing a small Gyaos on the ground. He squinted, and he realized the city was littered with Gyaos corpses. 'Did he kill all of these?' Reiwa thought. He found that to be quite impressive, since he couldn't even count the swarms of Gyaos corpses on the ground.

As he did this, he sensed the other Gamera rising to his feet. Reiwa turned to him, noticing the fires beginning to rise up and fly towards Heisei, flowing into him. His wounds glowed orange, Reiwa realizing one arm was just a stump. As Heisei absorbed more fire, his wounds closed slowly, rapidly increasing in the healing process.

His arm stump began growing, looking to be made of fire. In a few moments, it began to dissipate, a new arm in its place. And a few moments more, Heisei stood up, completely healed, although Reiwa sensed Heisei's weakness, not recovered by the flames. Heisei looked straight at him, his eyes narrowing. "Who are you-?" Then he fell to the ground, clearly exhausted.

Reiwa approached him, picking him up and taking off towards a volcano he sensed nearby. In less than an hour, he reached the volcano, and tossed Heisei inside. He knew it might take Heisei a couple days to fully regain his strength, so he sat down on the mountain to wait...

A couple days later, he sensed Heisei's presence in the Volcano. He suddenly felt a sense of danger, and ducked his head in time to dodge a plasma shot. He was confused, until he was slammed into the ground by something from behind. He moved to get up, but he was picked up from behind and tossed into the volcano's side. He shook himself, looking up, and his eyes widening in surprise.

Heisei stood there, glaring at him, and Reiwa was scared of him. He was a lot meaner looking than Showa, and bigger than himself. He growled, saying, "You thought you could just come and destroy this world? I will not let you." Reiwa lifted his hands, starting to say, "Im not here to figh-"  Heisei roared, "I DON'T CARE!" And charged him.

Reiwa realized he'd need to fight back, dodging the first attack of Heisei's and slamming his own claws into Heisei's chest. Heisei was sent back a bit, Reiwa realizing how light he was. Reiwa growled, "I don't want to do this, but if I need to beat some sense into you, I will!" Heisei roared in challenge, and fired a plasma blast.

The attack put Reiwa on his shell, but he quickly rose, only to see Heisei fly into him. He was thrown to the ground, rising up and slamming his shell into Heisei's face, making him back away. he began to rapidly fire plasma blasts, which seemed to injure Heisei a bit. He ran at him, jumping up and slamming Heisei to the ground.

Heisei roared, and his mouth glowed insanely bright, and fired a high Plasma at Reiwa's chest. It sent him into the air, making him fall on his side, his chest steaming. Before he could get up from the powerful attack, he was grabbed and slammed into the ground. He was picked up, and thrown across the ground.

Reiwa got up, pissed off now, and charged Heisei. He threw a fist, only for Heisei to catch the blow, and slam his other hand into Reiwa's chest. Reiwa went to grab at Heisei, but another plasma blast pushed him back, and he was slammed against a cliff side, Heisei's claws around his neck. Reiwa clawed at his arm, but Heisei struck him in the stomach, making him loosen his grip. he began to squeeze his claws tighter on Reiwa's neck, and Reiwa realized he might actually die.

"S-stop!" Heisei growled at him. "Why should I?" Reiwa struggled to say anything, so Heisei loosened his claws around his neck. "Can't you sense me? I'm you, Im no danger to Earth." Heisei was silent a moment, then let go of Reiwa. "If you're so similar to me, how didn't I know you were here?"

Reiwa stood up, shrugging. "I can't be entirely sure, but I'm pretty sure there is multiple universes where Gamera's exist. I just came from one of them, saving their world, and them, from being destroyed. And now I'm here to help you as well." Heisei looked at him, extremely confused, then his face became worried. "Do you feel that?"

Reiwa reached out to the world's mana, and he sensed something. A Gyaos horde, hundreds of Gyaos heading for the humans. "Yes, Gyaos swarm." Heisei growled, "I just killed a horde of them..." "perhaps something bigger is at work here." Heisei looked to Reiwa, and said, "I may need some help. I nearly died last time."

Reiwa nodded, and the two entered their flipper flight forms, and flew straight for the Gyaos swarms.
