Chapter 16
The sky was blurring with shadows, the crimson light of a setting sun slashing through the darkening clouds as Dr. Andrews and Jia sat in their craft, waiting in tense silence. Suddenly, their general appeared over the comms, voice laced with urgency.
"Doc, I—it's Titanus Syrantus. She's waking up again after her little slumber," the pilot's voice crackled, filled with a note of disbelief. A readout flickered across Dr. Andrews' screen, showing a monstrous, sprawling form—Titanus Syrantus, the ancient dragonic titan, her scales glistening with an eerie, bioluminescent glow, her massive wings twitching as if stretching after an age-long nap.
The craft rumbled as the distant sound of a primal roar reached them. The beast was waking—her reign of destruction, long dormant, was about to begin once again.
"So is Godzilla... has he changed his ways? Is he now fighting for Kong?" Jia's voice trembled slightly as she gazed out at the immense titan, bound by chains that strained against her colossal form. The ship rocked beneath her feet as the distant rumble of the titan's growls reverberated through the air.
Dr. Andrews took a deep breath, watching the screen flicker with images of the two titans—Godzilla and Kong—each preparing for an inevitable collision. "We must get ourselves ready. Three gods are about to clash, and the world will never be the same," she said, her tone grave.
The winds picked up, howling around them, as the shadows of the titans loomed ever closer. The tension in the air was thick, and the weight of the coming battle settled on their shoulders. Only time would tell if humanity could survive the fury of the ancient titans now bound by fate.
SCENEBREAK
Normally, I would've been traveling by water, staying close to Godzilla's path, but after a bit of rest, I made the decision to take to the skies. The storms were fierce, and I knew that Godzilla wouldn't wait much longer to reach Kong. I beat my wings harder, pushing through the gale-force winds, determination driving me forward.
Soon enough, the thick cloud cover began to break apart, revealing the massive fleet carrying Kong. The sight was chilling—the massive ships, heavy with their cargo, were scattered like toys in the vast expanse of the ocean.
At that very moment, Godzilla surged from the depths, rising in all his terrifying glory. His roar pierced through the storm, sending waves crashing. With a deafening roar, his tail swung around, nearly toppling one of the ships in the fleet, sending it into a desperate spiral. The air hummed with tension as the two titans locked eyes, the world holding its breath in anticipation of the chaos to come.
"Kong!" Godzilla growled, his voice rumbling like distant thunder, shaking the very air around him. "You dare to enter my territory?"
The words were a challenge, a primal warning that sent ripples through the waters surrounding them. Godzilla's eyes narrowed, glowing with a fierce, almost predatory intensity as he faced Kong. The two titans, separated by years of conflict and chaos, now stood on the precipice of an explosive showdown.
Kong, massive and defiant, let out a roar of his own, a declaration of resistance. The clash was imminent, the air thick with the tension of two unstoppable forces on a collision course. The storm above them seemed to mirror the fury below, lightning flashing, thunder booming, as if nature itself was holding its breath.
I sighed, shaking my head, and shot down from the sky, diving straight toward Godzilla. With a swift motion, I grabbed him in a headlock, my claws digging into the tough scales of his neck.
"Cool it, you overgrown lizard!" I barked into his ear, my voice cutting through the chaos. Godzilla struggled in my grip, thrashing violently as waves of water crashed around us, sending torrents of seawater into the air. His tail whipped, sending shockwaves that tossed nearby ships like toys.
Kong, already on edge, yelped in surprise as the power of the struggle sent massive waves crashing across the fleet. The air was thick with tension as I tried to maintain my hold, not wanting to let either titan break free and turn their fury toward each other.
"Enough!" I growled, struggling to keep my position as Godzilla's muscles rippled beneath me, his rage palpable. It wasn't just the battle that was coming—it was the unbridled, raw power of nature itself about to explode.
I let go of Godzilla, my wings flaring as I landed gracefully on the deck of the massive ship, the wood creaking under my weight. The air was thick with tension, but I knew I had to calm the situation before it escalated further.
"Greetings, Kong," I said, my voice carrying across the deck, the wind picking up around me. "My name is Syrantus, but you can call me Syra."
Kong, surprisingly composed in the face of the chaos, lowered his massive head in a gesture of respect. His eyes, always intense, softened just slightly.
"Greetings, Your Majesty," he rumbled, his voice deep and resonant, vibrating through the ship.
I nodded, a faint smile crossing my face, but I didn't let my guard down. The power struggle between these titans was far from over, and I knew I'd have to keep them both under control—at least for now. The sky above darkened further, a storm of fury brewing, and the battle was far from decided.
Godzilla snorted, his massive frame trembling with irritation. "Syra, I told you to stay behind. I'm handling this," he growled, his tail lashing out, slamming into a nearby ship and sending it careening into the water.
I sighed deeply, spreading my wings wide as I steadied the ship, the force of Godzilla's strike threatening to topple it. "Godzilla," I said, my voice firm but calm. "You need to let this ancient rivalry go. Kong is our ally now. He didn't listen to Ghidorah, and he's been helping the humans—the ones that we've both fought to protect. Remember that."
The giant titan's glowing eyes flickered as he considered my words, but the tension in the air was still thick, as if both titans were locked in an eternal struggle for dominance.
I moved closer to Kong, keeping one eye on Godzilla. "We have more to fight for now. We're facing bigger threats—threats that neither of you can defeat alone."
Kong nodded slowly, his gaze shifting from me to Godzilla, his body still tense but no longer as aggressive. The sea churned around us, as if even the elements were waiting for their next move.
Godzilla sighed heavily, his massive body lowering as he crossed his arms, the weight of his frustration clear. "Fine, but just this once," he muttered, his voice low and filled with a warning edge. "If he threatens any of you again, I will kill him."
I smiled, feeling a sense of relief wash over me, and leaned forward slightly, nudging Godzilla with a playful nuzzle. "Thank you, love," I whispered, the warmth of his presence easing the tension I'd been carrying.
His massive frame shifted as he let out a deep, rumbling chuckle, his rough exterior softening just a touch. But his eyes never left Kong, the ancient rivalry still simmering beneath the surface.
The storm above began to calm, though the world was still on the brink of chaos. The unspoken alliance between us—Godzilla, Kong, and myself—was fragile, but it was our only chance at survival against the coming threat. And for the first time in a long while, I felt the faintest glimmer of hope.
SCENEBREAK
On the boat, Jia made some quick hand signals to Dr. Andrews, who nodded in understanding. Nathan looked over at them, puzzled. "What's she doing?" he asked, his eyes scanning the scene.
Dr. Andrews glanced at Jia, then back at the unfolding situation. "She's saying that Syrantus is the queen, and that's why these two brutes are listening to her. Also... I think Godzilla likes her."
Nathan raised an eyebrow, clearly surprised. "Godzilla? Likes her? Well, that's a twist."
Dr. Andrews glanced back at the titans, her expression a mix of curiosity and concern. "I didn't think it was possible, but if it keeps them under control, we might just have a chance at surviving whatever comes next."
As the conversation continued, the tense atmosphere remained, but for the first time, there was a sense that the titans might not tear each other apart. Not yet, at least.
Dr. Andrews tightened her grip on the controls and gave a sharp nod. "Let's get this boat on the broad now that Godzilla isn't attacking us. We can move."
The ship's engines roared to life, and the crew worked quickly, their motions sharp and efficient as they adjusted their course. The tension in the air had lightened slightly, but the looming presence of the titans still hung heavy.
Jia stood nearby, watching the massive forms of Godzilla and Kong as they maintained their uneasy truce. She couldn't help but feel the weight of the situation. This fragile alliance between the titans could tip at any moment. But for now, it was enough to move forward, to escape the storm and the chaos that had brought them together.
As the boat began to sail smoothly, Dr. Andrews remained at the helm, her eyes focused on the horizon. "Keep an eye on them," she muttered. "We can't afford to let our guard down."
SCENEBREAK
I smiled as the rotors started moving, the engines humming with power beneath me. Godzilla shifted, moving aside to give us space. "Come on," I told him, wrapping a wing over his massive shoulders as we began to make our way forward. "We better move and let them do whatever they want to do. They're going to take Kong to Hollow Earth."
Godzilla gave a low growl but didn't argue, his eyes scanning the horizon as we moved together. The weight of our mission hung heavily in the air—Kong's destination was critical, and the path to Hollow Earth wasn't one that could be traversed lightly. The journey would be perilous, but we had to trust that Kong and the titans would play their part.
For now, we had to focus on keeping the balance in check, making sure the titans didn't destroy everything in their wake while the world's fate hung in the balance.
