The Emperor, The Owl Lady, and The King (Part 2).
I'm baaaaaaaaaaack~ Yes, it's a two parter. Because I felt like the last one was a little short, and we didn't get enough Eda.
...
Back under the sea...
It had been a few days since Godzilla had defeated the multicolored sludge monster. The townsfolk of bonesborough praised him for doing so, but he cared not for praise as he lumbered back towards the sea.
Anyways, currently in the present, Godzilla received a surprise visit from that magic orb in his mind while he slept beneath the waves, and he had a message for the king of monsters.
Godzilla had awoken within the blank white abyss of the mindscape, and was immediately on guard.
"Good afternoon, Big G!" The magic orb exclaimed happily, appearing behind the kaiju.
Startled, Godzilla immediately whipped around with his spikes glowing, sharp toothed maw opened, and a blue glow coming from his throat.
The orb screamed as he ducked from the blue beam of Godzilla's atomic breath.
"AAAAAAAAH!"
The blast ceases once Godzilla knows who it is.
The orb levitates back up to Godzilla's eye level while gasping for air. "Not to self, don't sneak up on a kaiju." He said to himself.
Godzilla growls in annoyance.
"Uh, heheheh, sorry about that. That was a bad idea on my part. But I wouldn't recommend doing that in the real world unless you know for sure who's behind you. *Clears throat* Anyways, it's high time you start using that new ability I granted you so you can start getting used to it." The orb explained.
Godzilla growled as he narrowed his eyes in suspicion.
"Don't give me that look, it can be helpful. Trust me! I gave you the ability to speak when you first arrived here. I mean seriously, you literally said who you are when you were fighting that magma rock monster." The orb explained, trying to convince the stubborn kaiju king.
Godzilla's eyes widened before narrowing in anger, and growled.
"Hey hey! Take it easy will ya? Jeez! It's only to prevent a language barrier, because I can't follow you everywhere just to translate for ya. Besides, you can speak English, and still communicate like you usually do. It's your choice. But with this next ability, it allows you walk amongst the populace without causing property damage or death." The orb explained.
Godzilla wasn't convinced.
"*Sigh* Just give it a shot whenever you feel like it. It'll be like second nature to you. See ya!"
Just like that, the orb went away with a poof, and Godzilla woke up with a grumble. He wanted to go back to sleep, but he didn't feel the need to.
Well... might as well humor the magic glowing orb thing.
With a much louder, annoyed grumbled, the king of the monsters began to stir from his sleeping spot, and began to head to shore.
...
The shoreline was within sight of the king, but he didn't move to close to make his presence known. He decided to try out that new ability the magic orb was talking about.
He decided to tap into his instincts to see if it's something new added to it. Wouldn't you know it... it was. It felt completely foreign to him, yet he somehow knew how to use it.
Once he activated it, he felt an odd energy surround his very being, and his began to glow a bright blue all over.
Beneath the water, a glowing blue light could be seen heading towards the shoreline, and it became smaller as it did.
The light ceased before it could get to the sandbank.
Suddenly, Godzilla rises from the water, and he now stands at a much different height. His physical appearance remained the same, but he now stands at an astonishing twelve feet tall.
He studied his surroundings, and saw that the red leafed trees of this world now stood higher than him. He hasn't seen trees bigger than him since he was a Godzillasaurus.
(A/N: If you've seen Godzilla vs King Ghidorah, you know what I'm talking about.)
Godzilla took a deep breath of air, and snorted in slight content at the mild nostalgia this feeling brought. If only the trees of this world were green like the ones in his world, then it would feel more close to home.
He then began lumbering towards the woods with no real destination in mind, just a little stroll before returning beneath the waves.
Godzilla trudged through the brush of the woods with ease. So far, nothing posed a threat, or attacked him in a good couple of hours, and the sun is starting to set.
A few hours later...
Thinking he's been out here in the woods long enough, Godzilla decided to turn back around, and head back to the sea.
But before he could, he stopped after a couple of steps once his hearing picked up something in the distance on his left.
Due to the sun setting, Godzilla is able to make out multiple flashes of light going off in the distance. The flashes being blue, and orange.
While odd, Godzilla thought nothing of it, and continued onward back towards the ocean.
But Godzilla stopped in his tracks once he heard a woman's shriek echo through the air.
It's nothing new to him. He's heard many people scream in terror at the mere sight of him whenever he's gone on a rampage in Japan. But this scream sounded like it was a scream of pain, and he can't recall if he's ever heard someone screaming in pain that wasn't a kaiju.
Normally, Godzilla wouldn't care. It wasn't his problem. But when he heard the scream again, followed by rapid flashes of blue light. For some reason, something tugged at his instincts to go over there.
He honestly felt... conflicted.
The scream, and flashing lights, happened again. It tugged at his instincts again. It triggered something in his instincts to do... something. The feeling felt oddly familiar. Like a protective feeling. He hadn't felt this kind of protectiveness since...
... Junior...
The screams, and flashing, occurred once more. The screams sounded like a pain filled scream mixed with wailing.
With a newfound determination, Godzilla lumbered towards the source of the screams with an aggressive growl.
...
Earlier...
Edalyn Clawethorne, also known as Eda, and also known as the Owl Lady. The most powerful, and most wanted, wild witch of the boiling isles.
Earlier this afternoon, Eda was busy running a small stand that sells items from the human realm. But said items, which is almost entirely junk, were labeled wrong due to not really knowing what they are. But running a stand is risky business when you're the most wanted witch in the isles.
Eda was in the middle of selling the junk she found in the human realm. Suddenly, she's approached by the Emperor's coven.
This is no surprise to her. It's practically almost a daily routine.
She was able to take care of half of the coven members with her magic, before making her escape into the woods on her staff. But the other half gave chase.
Eda, and the coven members, began to duke it out in the woods. Spells flew left and right, each creating flashes of light. Eda seemed to be winning the fight, and victory was in her grasp.
But that's when she got blasted by a blue blast of magic, and slammed against the side of a tree.
Eda felt disoriented for a moment, but she soon got pinned by a coven member's staff. Eda grasped onto it to keep it from choking her.
Another coven member stepped forward to stand next to the coven member keeping Eda in place.
Eda already knew who this was...
... Lilith Clawethorne, Eda's older sister, and head of the Emperor's coven.
"Nice try, Edalyn. I'd knew you'd slip up eventually." Lilith spoke in a calm demeanor.
"*Ack* Screw you, Lilith!" Eda exclaimed, trying not to choke from the staff that's keeping her pinned.
"Now now, Edalyn, please try to be reasonable. I'm doing this for your own good." Lilith tried to reason calmly.
"You say that *ack* every time!"
"Because you never listen! I'm trying to help you, and you continue to be difficult! Just look at yourself! You live on the run, and you sell GARBAGE! Do I even need to bring up your curse? Just stop fighting, and join the Emperor's coven! Emperor Belos can cure you, and you can live the dream of being in the emperor's coven like when we were kids!" Lilith still tried to reason, losing patience.
"I stopped having that dream when I finally woke up! I'm NOT joining the emperor's coven, I'm NOT gonna trust Belos with my life, and I'M NOT GONNA LISTEN TO YOU, OR THAT POWER HUNGRY JACKASS! SO PISS OFF!" Eda yelled, finally having enough room to breath.
Lilith became furious. Her eyes widened, and her brows furrowed in anger.
"I'll make you submit, and join the coven... whether you like it or not!" Lilith said angrily.
Lilith summoned her staff, and she aimed it at Eda. The staff glowed, and crackled, with blue electricity. Eda started to get worried, but she didn't let it show... much.
"Just so you know... you made me do this." Lilith said with hesitation.
Her staff fired blue electricity, and Eda screamed in pain once it struck her.
The lightning ceased, and Eda tried to withstand the lingering pain. But it wasn't long enough, because she was soon struck again, and she screamed again.
"I'll never join!" Eda shouted once the attack ceased.
But Lilith struck her again, and Eda screamed again.
She was struck for a fourth time, her screams sounding like they're mixing with wails.
This continued for a couple minutes, and Eda never gave in. She's struck again, tears finally running down her face.
Lilith ceased the attack again, but this time she paused to speak to her.
"Edalyn, please. Just stop resisting. It hurts me to see you in pain, and it's worse when I'm the one inflicting that pain! Just join me, please!" Lilith begged.
Eda's breathing was shaky, and tears stained her face. But she still had the energy to look her sister in the eye, and tell her off.
"Go... to... hell..." she said.
Lilith closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and sighed.
"Then I'm not stopping... UNTIL YOU JOIN!" She shouted, ready to fire another blast of electricity.
Eda braced herself for another round of intense pain, but it never came once she heard something... familiar.
She opened her eyes to see that Lilith, and the coven members, had froze once they heard what she's hearing.

SKREEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONK!
(Play music on top)
It was then followed by the sound of something heavy stomping the ground, and it grew louder as it got closer.
*THOOM. THOOM. THOOM. THOOM.*
It was then followed by branches breaking, and trees falling.
Everyone heard that roar. No one could forget that roar.
Everyone's thoughts were soon confirmed to be true when it came out of the brush...
... GODZILLA...
"Oh sweet mother of the titan! It's Godzilla!... but shorter!" Exclaimed one coven member.
"What's he doing here?" Another coven member questioned.
"Who cares? It's freaking, Godzilla!" Exclaimed a third member.
Godzilla growled as he scanned the coven members. Not liking either of them so far. Then his eyes landed on, Eda. She's still pinned against the tree by the coven member with the staff, and she's in a great deal of pain.
Godzilla could sense a great deal of power coming off of her. He could also see some minor blue static coming off of her, and saw the same static on the white staff, which belonged to a woman with long raven colored hair.
He put two and two together, and growled in anger before approaching the coven member that kept Eda pinned.
The coven member became increasingly worried.
"Uh, guys? What's he doing? H-he's coming towards me! What do I do?!" He began to panic.
"I-I don't know!" Another member panicked.
"That's not helpful!" The staff wielding coven member exclaimed fearfully.
During his mini panic, he unknowingly began to press his staff tighter against Eda's throat.
Eda, too weak from the shocks she received, didn't have the strength to push the staff away, and was starting to choke. Panicking, she looked to the approaching king of monsters. So she swallowed her pride, and raised her hand pleadingly towards him.
"P-please... help..." she begged, which sounded so unlike her.
Hearing her sister choke, and actually beg for help, caused Lilith to snap out of her shocked trance.
"Kenny, stop! You're choking her!" Lilith exclaimed in a near panicked and fearful tone.
"Wait, what?" The coven member, now known as Kenny, looked at Eda to see that he's indeed choking her pretty bad.
"But I thought that was the point?" He questioned confusingly.
"No! The idea was to keep her pinned, then- LOOK OUT!" Lilith exclaimed suddenly at the end, pointing at a certain someone next to him.
Quickly, Kenny looked to see an angry king of the monsters with a clenched fist at the ready.
"OH SHI-"
Kenny never got to finish his last words, because Godzilla swung his fist at him so hard, it sent Kenny flying towards a tree, and he made a sickening fatal crack upon impact.
Kenny's limp body fell on the ground... and didn't move, or breath.
"Oh my titan, he killed Kenny!" Exclaimed a coven member.
"You bastard!" Exclaimed another one.
Godzilla roared defiantly in rage.

(0:32 - 0:37)
SKREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOONK!!!
"Oh shit, he's pissed!" Exclaimed a coven member.
"L-Lady Lilith, what should we do?!" Another coven member questioned fearfully.
"Stand your ground! We're not leaving without my sister!" Lilith firmly declared, her staff at the ready.
Godzilla growled, and slammed his tail on the ground, ready for a fight. The dorsal spines on his back flashed, and glowed blue, before unleashing the neon blue torrent of his signature attack; his atomic breath.
The blast struck a coven member in the chest. He screamed in pain as he was burnt in a near instant, and was blown back. Everyone saw that the majority of the coven member's body is being incinerated.
Godzilla ceased his signature attack, and roared before charging towards the other members.
The coven members drew spell circles in the air, and began firing attack spells at the kaiju, but Godzilla was able to withstand missiles back in his world. So the spells they fired at him weren't really doing any damage as he plowed through the assault.
He roared as he swatted away a coven member with his claws, and said claws dug deep, which caused blood to spray from the woods he inflicted. Godzilla swatted away another member, and it had the same results.
A group of three came up behind Godzilla, and he swung his long tail at them, which caused them to yell in surprise as they got flung into the trees. The group of three were knocked out upon impact.
Godzilla roared, but then got struck on his left side by fire balls. He growled angrily, and his dorsal spines flashed then glowed blue before unleashing his atomic breath at the coven members.
They screamed in pain as the attack struck them. They got both incinerated, and blown away by Godzilla's atomic breath.
"Fuck this shit! I didn't sign up for this!" Exclaimed one coven member, stumbling back from watching his colleagues get practically obliterated.
"Don't you dare ditch us, you prick!" Exclaimed another member.
"Too late! See ya!"
But before he could get far, another blast of Godzilla's atomic breath struck his backside.
Godzilla roared, glaring at the remaining members, and they began to back up in fear of the king.
Their spells weren't doing squat to him. They either bounced off of his durable skin, or just annoyed him after whatever spell struck him.
They all then casted a fire spell, and casted it upon the ground around Godzilla.
Suddenly, fire erupted around the kaiju king, and it seemed to engulf him. Godzilla roared in surprise as this happened.
"Yeah, we got him! WE FUCKING GOT HIM!" One of the member's exclaimed in excitement.
"Uh, guys?"
"What?"
"Look..."
They looked back at the flames, and much to their horror, they saw Godzilla marching through the flames without a scratch or burn on him.
Godzilla charged his atomic breath, and unleashed it upon the remaining members. Each one screamed in both terror and pain as the beam struck them. Each one being incinerated. Some tried to shield themselves with magic shields they casted, but the atomic breath managed to penetrate their protection a few seconds.
Godzilla ceased his attack abruptly before he could kill off the remaining members when blue lightning struck the right side of his face.
He growled irritably as he turned to see who fired the lightning.
It was from Lilith, and her staff had blue static radiating from the top of it.
Now he's one hundred percent sure that she's the one who caused the flashing blue lights earlier, and was the one that struck Eda while she was pinned. Not to mention that her attack felt different from the others. It's stronger than the spells that were casted by the coven members, and he could feel great power radiating off of her, similar to Eda.
"I don't know what you're doing here, or what your intentions are with my sister, but know this, Godzilla. I'm NOT leaving without her!" Lilith declared, the top of her staff glowing with magic.
Godzilla growled as he narrowed his eyes at her.
"... Then PERISH." He growled, surprising Lilith. For she had never heard him speak in person.
There's been recorded documents that he spoke once when he first appeared. But no one heard him speak since.
Godzilla's dorsal spines flashed and glowed, and Lilith immediately put up an ice wall. It was the best she could do because she saw what he did to the shields of her subordinates.
Godzilla unleashed his atomic breath upon the ice wall. The ice wall, and it exploded as the blue beam pierced through. Once it fully exploded, Godzilla roared in victory.
(End of music)
Afterwards, Godzilla noticed that there wasn't a burnt corpse on the ground. This left the monster king confused, until he heard a twig snap, and jerked his head over to the source to see Lilith sprinting through the woods away from the scene.
Growling in anger, Godzilla was about to give chase until he heard someone groan, and a mild thud hitting the ground.
Curious, he turned to see Eda on her hands, and knees, her staff clutched in one hand. Her body shook as she tried to get back up on her feet, and she tried to use her staff to help her up, but the electrical onslaught took a lot out of her.
She fell back on the ground again, exhausting whatever energy she had.
Eda froze when she felt the ground shake, and her eyes darted over to the king of the monsters lumbering towards her. Fear wracked throughout her body as her eyes widened at the sight of the massive saurian approaching.
She soon gazed up fearfully into the fiery reddish orange eyes of the king of the monsters standing over her...
