the Kaiju War Saga

Kaiju War Saga: Prologue

Tokyo, Japan - The legendary figure of Godzilla stood tall and majestic in the ruins of the once densely populated city, thunder flashing overhead and the horizon tinted with orange from the flames raging in the distance. Rain then began to fall heavily, rinsing the blood off of Godzilla’s burnt scales and turning the ground crimson around Godzilla. Lightning flashed through the sky, illuminating the stiff bodies around him of both allies, enemies, and those that had been both. Godzilla breathed out heavily, his breath steaming in the cold air as lightning flashed again, illuminating his opponent: a twisted reflection of himself. The dark version of Godzilla swung its enormous tail through the air while its body glowed with malevolent energy. Godzilla’s eyes were dull due to exhaustion but they still flamed defiantly as Godzilla stared down his opponent, readying himself for a battle to the death. Lightning flashed over the ruined city as the 2 Godzillas braced themselves for battle.
510 hours earlier & 505 hours to apocalypse- 5 years had passed since Godzilla and Spacegodzilla’s violent and destructive battle that almost leveled San Francisco. Godzilla disappeared into the deep before the military even had arrived in the city and hasn’t been spotted since. The world has radically changed since that fateful day however. The Global Defense Force (GDF) was founded, setting up its primary base in the ruins of San Francisco and had begun mass producing giant robots for defense in 2 forms: Mechas and Jaegars. Mechas were more the traditional type of giant robot built for combatting giant monsters and similar threats, operated from a AI or pilots operating it's controls remotely and sometimes from within. Jaegars on the other hand were being operated by a experimental technology nicknamed "Drift". It would allow the pilots operating from within to have direct control from their brains, allowing almost a microsecond delay in the robot's response time so it would be as if the pilots themselves were doing the fighting. However even all these advances in defense couldn’t begin to prepare the planet for what was to come. Unbeknownst to everyone, spacegodzilla’s crystal fortress had taken root in the earth, reaching deeper and deeper into the planet, all the way through the crust and into the lithosphere. The crystals there then began to mix with the molten magma, altering it on a molecular level until it began to take on a monstrous shape. The crystals stretched out across the planet's inner cores, seeking out power hungry creatures to embue with power. Upon being drawn to the vast amounts of Gyaos eggs scattered across the planet, the crystals began stabbing into the eggs, mutating the already vile creatures far beyond the norm. An egg then began to crack open, revealing a orange bird like eye that slowly began to ominously glow a bright alien purple.
Chattanooga, Tennessee
20 hours to Apocalypse- FBI Agents Chase Palmer and Danny Mogan were called into a emergency call reporting that a community had seemingly disappeared without a trace, the lawns beginning to get high and unkempt and weeds growing out of control around the houses which was unusual given no vacations seemed to have been planned. They pulled into the neighborhood with Danny as usual being silent as the grave making it as awkward as ever. As they pulled to a stop, Chase got out and immediately froze. "You take that side of the street, I'll take the other-" Danny started to say but Chase cut him off with "Dammit now you finally speak??? Don't you notice something?" Danny was completely oblivious so with a roll of his eyes Chase said "The silence dumbass. It's unchanged, there's not even any birds chirping, no voices, no dogs barking. In a neighborhood like this? Something is very wrong here." Chase grabbed the radio and spoke into it saying "10-23, just arrived on scene, we're going 10-25." Then each of them grabbed their respective weapons, Danny with a Colt AR-15 and Chase with his AK-74 and started to each walk towards a house. Chase knocked on the door yelling "This is FBI, open up!" but there was no response. He then kicked in the door and began investigating the house but it seemed to be void of any life. The fridge was full of food that was starting to go bad and the lights on throughout the house. Food was on the table with plates half finished, a spoon stabbing into some mashed potatoes that were now hard as a brick and steaks now covered with gnats. In the bathroom a sink was still running over a soap dispenser that had seemingly been knocked in by someone in a rush. Chase finally caught a break though in the backyard, finding a double barrel shotgun laying on the ground beside a dog collar on a lash that seemed to have been yanked off. Checking the weapon, chase found that one of the shells had been fired but it was still loaded with a second shell. Swinging his AK-74 around to his back on it's sling, Chase cocked the shotgun and muttered to himself "The hell is going on here?" before hearing a scream from Danny as there was a burst of gunfire. "DANNY?! I'M COMING!" Chase yelled while running back into the house and out the front but by then Danny's screams had already ceased and the deafening silence resumed. Chase yelled " Danny?! Where the hell are you asshole? This is absolutely no time to get a sense of humor and start playing games!" He looked around for any signs of where he'd gone but just like the neighborhood, he seemed to have disappeared. Save for one thing. Chase spotted something peculiar on the side of the house Danny had been investigating and as he looked closer it appeared to be some kind of purple liquid with a similar consistency as that of blood. Chase was about to touch it when suddenly he heard a branch crack, what appeared to be a drop of blood dropped onto his hand from above. Chase heard a chittering from above and froze. He then slowly looked up as more drops of blood fell from the jaws of a giant bat like creature with purple spikes poking out from across it's body and it's eyes glowing a malicious purple as it eyed him hungrily from it's perch on the quivering tree. Chase slowly got to his feet, careful not to make any sudden moves as he cautiously backed up, the creature's eyes still tracking his every move. It then opened it's mouth and swallowed down the last of it's last meal, Danny's shocked head in clear view of Chase before disappearing down it's gullet. In a split second Chase fired the shotgun, hitting the beast in the gums and prompting a roar of outrage. Chase dropped the shotgun and began firing his AK-74, peppering the killer with bullets as he slowly backed towards the car. The Mutated Gyaos dropped off the tree and began stalking towards Chase, ignoring the stream of gunfire. "The hell, why aren't you going down!" Noticing his bullets did little damage against it's body and knowing his magazine had only a few bullets left, Chase aimed for the eye and fired. His bullet slammed into it's vulnerable eye and punched through, causing purple blood to gush from the wound. The mutated gyaos screamed in agony and lunged in it's rage but Chase did a roll and dodged out of the way, letting the beast slam it's head into one of the houses. The Mutated Gyaos screamed in rage as it tried to pull it's head out but it's horns kept getting caught. Chase didn't stick around to watch though and booked it for the car, muttering a torrent of cuss words as he ran. He grabbed his radio from the front and extra magazines for his AK, loading a fresh one in immediately while lifting up his radio to call for help. "10-34 all units 10-34 my location, AGENT DOWN, I REPEAT AGENT DOWN!" He then moved to the back opening the trunk to grab his Remington 870 express tactical 12 gauge shotgun. Then suddenly a couch impaled itself in the van behind Chase and he looked up to see the Mutated Gyaos now free from the house, it's gouged out eye still oozing purple blood and covered in splinters but the other eye burned purple with hatred. The Mutated Gyaos then let loose a loud shriek that increased in pitch and frequency, shattering all the windows in the neighborhood, followed by all the car windows. Chase gasped in pain as his ears began bleeding and a few pieces of shattered glass impaled themselves in his arms. He managed to open his eyes though and saw a light beginning to shine from it's mouth. Having done enough kaiju research to recognize what that might mean, he dove for the ditch as the Mutated Gyaos fired a sonic beam that cut through trees, telephone poles and the car like it were made of butter before hitting the engine. As it ignited in a fiery explosion, the Gyaos cackled and closed in for the kill while Chase still lay stunned in the ditch. However just as it opened it's bloody drooling jaws, Chase cocked the remington saying "Surprise you ugly bastard!" before shooting it in the mouth a few times, ripping up it's tongue and tearing into it's gums. The Gyaos screamed in agony and pain as it stomped the ditch where Chase had just been but he was already on the move. Chase moved around it's blind side to out flank the beast, firing his AK to get it's attention. The mutated Gyaos immediately lunged at Chase who dove out of  the way, causing it to instead sink it's jaws into a transformer. But instead of smoking and frying the beast, the crystal spikes across it's body seemed to be only absorbing the electricity, glowing and charging with power until the sparking stopped. But the crystals continued build in charge as it turned to face Chase once again, the crystal energies starting to arc to a point in front of it's mouth and building even more in power. Realizing what was probably coming, Chase aimed his AK at it's remaining eye, took a deep breath and fired. The bullet slammed into it's eye prompting a gush of blood and causing the beast to scream in agony as the blast fired, slamming into the house behind Chase instead. There was a explosion within the house as a hot water heater came screaming out like a rocket, slamming into the gyaos' chest and carrying it forward into one of the weakened houses, bringing it crumbling down on top of the vile beast. Chase let loose a gasp of relief only to be stunned again as it burst out of the rubble, it's eyes both oozing purple blood and covered with a layer of dirt and splinters while it's body was torn up by the water heater, one of it's wings hanging limp and seemingly broken. "Son of a bitch why won't this thing die!" Chase muttered while a piece of rubble fell from a nearby house, the Gyaos immediately shrieking before lunging into the house and getting it's head buried in the partially collapsed house but also giving Chase a idea. Just as it pulled it's head free, Chase moved onto a porch and began firing at the beast, yelling "HEY COME AND GET ME YOU UGLY SON OF A- oh shit!" before diving through a window with the charging gyaos a second behind him. It smashed into the house, causing parts of the ceiling to cave in as Chase ran for the water heater with the blind snarling beast right behind him. Then part of the house caved in front of Chase causing him to trip and slide back as quick as he could while the gyaos snapped the ground inches from his foot but got a mouthful of wood and ceramic tile instead. Chase then got to his feet by the water heater and pulled out his SIG 229 before firing into the Gyaos' gouged eye, prompting a fresh gush of blood before it snapped at Chase. Chase dove aside, allowing it to bit down on the top of the water heater instead, steam hissing as the metal groaned from so much pressure. Chase then dove through the back window just as the water heater overloaded and turned into a rocket, punching out the back of the Gyaos's head before it even could process what happened and through the roof. As purple guts trailed from the water heater, the Gyaos shook for a second before collapsing dead into the wall bringing the crumbling house crashing down on top of the dead beast. A tired, worn out Chase moved to the front of the house as the FBI and police reinforcements came rolling in but before he could tell them what happened multiple shrieks now very familiar to Chase echoed through the air. As the police and agents looked around in confusion. Chase groaned muttering " Oh motherf-" just as immense swarms of mutated gyaos shot into the sky out of the woods and filling the skies not just there but across the planet, commencing the beginning of the Kaiju War.
