The Titan known as Ghidorah, the False King. A three-headed abomination that sought to become the dominant creature upon this planet by reshaping it to his own whims. Battling Titanus Gojira for supremacy. When victory was all but assured for the golden dragon, the beast called forth to the other sleeping giants throughout the world. They awoke from their centuries of hibernation and following the call of their new alpha, they began to lay waste to the areas in which they had inhabited. The untold death and destruction caused by this Mass Awakening was the single greatest loss of human life ever recorded.


In the heart of what once was Boston, the true King of the Monsters made his stand against the usurper. And, after a long and bloody battle that resulted in the loss of the city Godzilla was victorious. Many of the Titans that had been awakened by Monster Zero's call surrounded their alpha and bowed before him. Letting out a mighty roar, the Lord of the Titans returned to the sea with many of the others either following him into the murky depths or going back to where they saw fit.


Under Godzilla, many Titans had actually proven to be beneficial to the world in which they inhabited. They giant mammoth like Titan Behemoth was able to stop the fires that ravaged the rain forests, and even managed to breathe new life into the foliage making it better than it had ever been before. The Cthulhu like beast Scylla was able to slow the devastating melting in Anatartica and even stabilized the sea levels. Even the King's path underwater were restoring natural reefs and increasing fish populations. Titan waste had been found to be a viable energy source as well. Ecosystems all around the world were healing and many species were taken off the endangered species list. It truly seemed that coexistence was possible and it was happening now.


Sadly however, as is often the case with mankind they would surely find a way to disturb such perfect balance.


In the heart of London, an amusement park had managed the impossible. Somehow, they had acquired an actual living Titan for all the world to see for themselves. This was truly incredible as Titans had gained celebrity like status throughout the world. People flocked from all over the world to see this gargantuan be paraded around for the amusement of the others. For a Titan, this one was relatively on the small side. Coming up to about 70 feet tall in the air was this creature that the park had named Gorgo (after the mythical Gorgon). Large green bumpy scales ordained the Titan's body, long arms that ended in massive webbed hands, a Komodo dragon like head with two webbed appendages sprouting from the sides like ears. The eyes of the creature were blood red and seemed to glow as the thing became scared.


Naturally the multi-national organization known as Monarch had stepped in and attempted to have this creature freed. They knew that it would not do well for anyone to have a Titan of any kind enslaved and shown off for the amusement of others. The park owners denied Monarch, pulling out legal documents that showed that the Titan had been sold to them fair and square. Monarch could not dispute it just yet as there were no laws prohibiting such things yet. The laws on Titan rights were still in the midst of being debated by the UN. They demanded to at least be able to stay and study the creature and ensure that nothing gets too out of hand. The owners were more than happy to oblige that request.


Gorgo had apparently been attacking fishing boats off the coast of Ireland. The creature would tear apart the vessels and eat the catch that the fishermen had collected. One day, the residents of the fishing village had loaded a bunch of fish that had been laced with chloroform and set it out directly in Gorgo's path. When the Titan inevitably attacked and ate his fill, the giant creature was finally put to rest. That was when the owner of the amusement park first laid eyes upon the sleeping Gorgo. He knew at that moment that he needed the Titan to be his main attraction. He bought the sleeping thing off the fishermen who were more than happy to get rid of the thing and then had him transported to London.
