THE GODZILLA CHRONICLES PART 8
THE FINAL CURTAIN!
"Nay as I walk through the valley of the shadow of death..................."
Her name was Ashley Hinson.
"I shall fear no evil....................."
Murdered at the age of 18.
"For thou art with me......................"
As if anyone cared.
"Thy rod and thy staff.................."
Other than the distraught mother and father she left behind.
"They comfort me."
Left wondering what kind of monster could take their little girl from them.
"Ashley Hinson, was cut down in the prime of her life."
She was visiting her boyfriend in Utah.
"But we can take comfort now................."
Ashley was nervous.
"In the knowledge that she has gone..............."
She never got to see him.
"...............to a better place."
She said goodbye to her parents before she got on her plane.
"As we lay her to rest."
For the last time.
As the funeral proceeds in the lonely cemetery, Godzilla watches from a safe distance hidden by a cluster of trees. He had looked into her eyes as she uttered her dying breath. Godzilla remembers it well...........too well. He had tried to save her........... but he was too late. Her throat had been cut................ she had already lost half her blood by the time he reached her. So young.......so innocent................ so undeserving of such a fate. The sorrow and rage that followed resulted in the utter and complete destruction of the Salt Lake City branch of Wolfram and Hart.
After the funeral ends and everyone leaves Godzilla walks up to the grave-site. He stares forlornly at the gravestone bearing Ashley's name. It is at this time that it begins to rain, amidst the falling drops a single tear falls as a furious rage builds within the kaiju King. He turns away from the tombstone, his eyes blazing a bright white!
Oddly enough, not too long after this Mr. Patrick Vosla the former CEO of the Salt Lake City branch of Wolfram and Hart was found dead with a broken neck in the top tier of a parking garage. No one saw the initial attack, but there were a couple of strange reports of sightings of a large saurian creature leaving the parking garage at around the estimated time of death. Mr. Vosla had survived the initial destruction of the Salt Lake City branch because he had left as soon as he witnessed Godzilla rising back up after Hamilton had seemingly killed him. That was enough to scare him senseless and to cause him to get the hell out of Dodge............. for all the good it did him.
Wolfram and Hart associates quickly recovered his body from the morgue after of course dispensing with a couple of coroners who were unfortunate enough to discover that Mr. Vosla was not human. Having two hearts, four livers, and no kidneys was kind of a dead giveaway. But as the Wolfram and Hart associates closed up the incisions made by the coroners they made a ghastly discovery. Carved into Mr. Vosla's chest by Godzilla's claws was the name Ashley Hinson. And beneath that cut into his belly were these chilling words..........
"The war has begun."
That was then...........this is now.
1 year later.....................
The battle had been long and hard but Godzilla had systematically wiped out every single branch of Wolfram and Hart all over the world.
Now only one remained...............the Tokyo, Japan branch.
03:15 AM
September 22nd, 2005
Inside one of Wolfram and Hart's many labs, something ominous has been recreated. Something on a massive lab table covered by a white sheet.
"Is it ready?" A voice belonging to an unseen individual asks.
"Yes Mr. Vice President sir." One of a group of many lab technicians answer.
"Excellent, your timing is impeccable gentlemen. Godzilla is on his way here as we speak." The voice speaks as the person steps into view at last.
"You followed my instructions to the last letter, correct?" He asks in an almost threatening tone.
"Ye-yes sir." Another tech assistant stutters.
"Very good. I will notify the CEO immediately."
"S-s-sir, w-with all due respect.........." The assistant begins to ask as he gulps nervously before going on.
".............a-are you s-sure this will work?"
The look the assistant is given freezes him to the core, if he wants to still be breathing within the next 30 seconds he knows that he has to get to the point fast!
"I-I-I mean sir just look at all the entities that this new Godzilla has overcome up until now. The Beast, Marcus Hamilton, Dracula, Ares the god of war, Thanos, Dahak, Fred Krueger, Lokar, t-the list just keeps going and going."
Long moments of uncomfortable silence pass as a withering glare is is focused on the diminutive tech by the Vice President.
".........................sometimes the best offense is a good defense young man. And its not always about who is doing the job........." The VP says as he walks up to the table and pulls it back just slightly, gazing down at a metallic arm with finger missiles on its hand and two letters.......................MG.
"................it's about what tools you use." He finishes smugly.
Meanwhile in the main board room............
"New York..........Salt Lake City...........Paris...........London........Cairo .........Bejing..........all of them..........destroyed. Crushed and blasted into dust by SOME F**KING IRRADIATED LIZARD!!!" The CEO of the Tokyo, Japan branch seethes with unbridled fury as he paces nervously and uncomfortably in the last remaining bastion of The Senior Partners surrounded by equally terrified and unnerved colleagues.
"As if it weren't already bad enough having lost the the L.A. branch along with The Senior Partners right hand enforcer Alexander Hamilton and the Circle of the Black Thorn thanks to that damned en-souled vampire, now Godzilla comes along to finish the job!" He goes on bellowing.
"Every challenge, every obstacle, every assassin, and spell we have tried has failed to stop Godzilla in any way! And now only we remain...............and The Senior Partners have made it horribly clear that if we fail to stop him...........we'll wish he had killed us." The CEO finishes with his voice almost becoming a whimper at the end.
"That is why we now have a plan to kill this meddlesome pest once and for all! A plan that shall not fail!"
"Indeed sir, it shall not."
The CEO turns around to see the Vice president Mr. Gensuke Sakudo standing in the doorway of the boardroom.
"We are now ready to implement our final plan." He concludes.
"Very good Sakudo, you have never failed me." The CEO proclaims.
"With your permission sir?"
"Yes......................launch it." The CEO orders.
Meanwhile...........
Godzilla had come home at last. It would be here in his homeland that the final battle against Wolfram and Hart would be waged. He would wipe their filth from this world and lay waste to it all, this he swears with a steadfast determination as he moves through downtown Tokyo drawing ever closer to his quarry. He travels on the deserted city streets for another 10 minutes until--
POW!
Godzilla is suddenly kamakazeed hard by something at blinding speed! Godzilla and whatever has hit him eventually crash down at the base of Tokyo Tower as the kaiju regains his footing. As Godzilla looks up he sees a ghost from his past as a familiar metallic hiss echoes through the air. Standing before him is his old enemy............Mechagodzilla! Looking exactly as he did decades ago when Godzilla first faced him. With another hiss MG fires off a volley of missiles which connect and explode rapidly against the kaiju king. Godzilla actually staggers back wincing in pain for but a moment, but that didn't make any sense. In his current uber-form MG's weaponry shouldn't even be able to scratch him let alone hurt him. Perhaps if someone had taken the time to explain to the big G that MG's new missiles were now plasma based it would have made more sense!
Godzilla begins to fire up his breath when MG suddenly plows into him again as they fly up into the sky pummeling on each other all the while. They crash into the 17th floor of a high rise office building exploding through the wall and mowing down several cubicles in the process as they roll across the floor. When they both get vertical the pounding continues. MG sends Godzilla reeling with a series of roundhouse rights and lefts but the favor is returned as Godzilla lays in with some shots of his own. Unfortunately though the hits don't seem to do much to the walking weapons depo as MG fires his dreaded technicolor beams from his eyes. But Godzilla shrugs those off and tail slams MG hard sending him crashing through and into the next room. As MG gets back up Godzilla finally has the time he needs to summon his breath as his dorsal plates dance with light.
BOOM!
The blast puts MG through several more rooms and all the way to the other end of the building, only one more wall separates MG from the outside.............something Godzilla quickly remedies with a lunging spear tackle!
CRASH!
As they go flying outside and back down towards the streets below they fall extremely close to another skyscraper which Godzilla takes advantage of as he slams MG's head hard into the side of the building as they fall digging a nasty furrow through the concrete with the cyborg's metallic skull all the way down!
WHAM!!
They crash hard at the bottom denting and shattering the pavement from their impact. Godzilla quickly springs to his feet as does Mechagodzilla surprisingly enough! To say that Godzilla is confused would be an understatement, nearby through hidden surveillance cameras all over the city the battle is being watched at the Wolfram and Hart complex.
