The Kajiu King

The Kajiu King Part 3

[SpaceGodzilla Tricks Godzilla Scene]

{Camera change to SpaceGodzilla on his overhanging rock ledge. SpaceGodzilla pace once and kick an old bone off the edge.}

{Godzilla Enters}

Godzilla: Hey Uncle SpaceGodzilla! Guess what!
SpaceGodzilla: I despise guessing games.
Godzilla: I'm going to be king of Pride Mountain.
SpaceGodzilla: {Sarcastically} Oh goody.
Godzilla: {Looking out over the edge of the rock} My dad just showed me the whole kingdom; {greedily} and I'm going to rule it all. Heh heh.
SpaceGodzilla: Yes. Well... forgive me for not leaping for joy. Bad back, you know.

{SpaceGodzilla flops down on his side.}

Godzilla: Hey, Uncle SpaceGodzilla? When I'm king, what'll that make you?
SpaceGodzilla: A monkey's uncle.
Godzilla: Heh heh. You're so weird.
SpaceGodzilla: You have NO idea. ...So, your father showed you the whole kingdom, did he?
Godzilla: Everything.
SpaceGodzilla: He didn't show you what's beyond that rise at the northern border...?
Godzilla: {Disappointed} Well, no... he said I can't go there.
SpaceGodzilla: And he's absolutely right. It's far too dangerous. Only the bravest hunters go there.
Godzilla: Well, I'm brave! What's out th--
SpaceGodzilla: {Interrupting} No, I'm sorry, Godzilla, I just can't tell you.
Godzilla: Why not?
SpaceGodzlla: Godzilla, Godzilla, I'm only looking out for the well- being of my favorite nephew.

{SpaceGodzilla rubs and pats Godzilla's head}

Godzilla: {Snorts sarcastically} Yeah, right, I'm your only nephew.
SpaceGodzilla: All the more reason for me to be protective... A Behemoth graveyard is no place for a young prince... {faking surprise} Oops!
Godzilla: {Enthusiastic} An Behemoth what? Whoa.
SpaceGodzilla: {Faking dismay} Oh dear, I've said too much... Well, I suppose you'd have found sooner or later, you being SO clever and all... {pulling Godzilla near} Oh, just do me one favor - promise me you'll never visit that dreadful place.
Godzilla: {Thinks} No problem.
SpaceGodzilla: There's a good lad. You run along now and have fun. And remember... it's our little secret.

{Godzilla leaves the rock, SpaceGodzilla walks away with an evil smile. Menacing music.}

SpaceGodzilla: Your majesty.

[Bath Scene - Intro to Water Hole Scene]

{Godzilla is running down the slope of the bottom part of Pride Mountion. He runs down towards two human huntresses (Miki and Grace). Grace is giving Serena a bath. Music is light, almost jazzy. Pan flute lead.}

Godzilla: Hey, Serena.
Serena: Hi, Godzilla.
Godzilla: Come on. I just heard about this great place.
Serena: {Through clenched teeth} Godzilla! I'm kind of in the middle of a bathing.
Miki: And it's time for yours.

{Godzilla tries (too late) to escape; Miki bends down and grabs him. She proceeds to give the struggling child a bath in a hot spring pool.}

Godzilla: Mom! {bubbles} Mom. You're messing up my style.

{Miki smiles.}

Godzilla: Okay, okay, I'm clean. {drys himself} Can we go now?
Serena: So where are we going? It better not be anyplace dumb. {puts on her clothes on very quick}
Godzilla: No. It's really cool.
Miki: So where is this "really cool" place?
Godzilla: Oh. {thinks} Uh... around the water hole.
Serena: The water hole? What's so great about the water hole?
Godzilla: {Whisper} I'll SHOW you when we GET there.
Serena: {Whisper} Oh. {Normal} Uh... Mom, can I go with Godzilla?
Grace: Hmm... What do you think, Miki?
Miki: Well...
Serena and Godzilla: {through broad, forced grins} Pleeeease?
Miki: It's all right with me...
