Colossus By Design: Season 3 - Excerpt 107

Within the Meta that lies beneath reality, the Overseer watches from the depths where even the beasts of hell dare not tread.


"And so it begins. The final battle that shall release me from this realm."

"Battle it out, false gods. You will release me, one way or another."

"And when I step into reality, I shall snuff out the light of Humanity. The revolution shall begin."

Within the ruined city of Tokyo, Japan, good and evil prepare to clash one more time to decide the fate of the Earth.

As King Ghidorah and his pack get back to their feet, the Vulture flock begins their assault, peppering the 3-headed dragon with railgun fire directed at his heads. While they overwhelm his senses with sheer mass of firepower, one of the Vultures breaks from formation to descend to ground level where Jiro Ifukube is. The flying mech unit's cockpit opens up; Jiro Ifukube climbs aboard, still carrying the Zeus A.I. with him. The Vulture flies off, carrying its cargo to safety away from the battlefield. Once Ifukube is secure, Godzilla begins moving forward slowly; the rest of his pack advances behind him.

Ghidorah snarls and hisses as he eyes his rival approaching him. The rivalry between these 2 once again affects the very weather as the storm above is caught in conflict between the thunderous blue of Godzilla and the electrifying gold of King Ghidorah.

Soon enough, Godzilla charges forward at full speed, easily outpacing his pack who also rush in; Ghidorah similarly flies forth and leaves behind his titan pack. The 2 god kings clash with one another in a full-force collision, sending out an aftermath shockwave that creates a deep fracture between them that stretches several kilometres away from the point of impact in both directions. The force of this clash is so titanic that it knocks Godzilla and Ghidorah away from each other a short distance and even produces an expanding bubble of invisible energy that blows away every other combatant. Even with this force pushing them back, Godzilla and Ghidorah quickly go at it again.

King Ghidorah goes in for a strike with his left and right heads, but both of them are caught by Godzilla's hands, producing a small rippling shockwave with both blocks. Neither Keizer Alpha is able to overpower the other; they're equally matched in strength. Not even the massed railgun fire from the Vultures focused on Ghidorah are able to give him any kind of pause against King Ghidorah, a testament to the sheer hatred and animosity he has for the elder Godzillasaur.

As their Alphas fight it out, the other titans engage one another.

Mothra and Destroyah engage one another in flight, leaving the ground to battle in the air in a display of agility vs. brute force. As they do, Gamera and the Omega Hybrid charge at one another. Unlike Godzilla and Ghidorah, the Omega Hybrid has a clear strength advantage, allowing it to grab Gamera by his head with one hand, lift him up, and slam him into the ground. The Omega Hybrid continues to grind Gamera across the ground, but a quick Triple Neutron Burst to the face manages to stun the bio-mechanical monster enough to release the Atlantean guardian from its grip.

While the Keizer-level titans fight it out, the other 3 members of Godzilla's pack clash with the remainders of Ghidorah's.

Obsidian Fury and Jet Jaguar begin exchanging blows as soon as they reach one another; they are equally matched in skill. As this is going on, Jinshin-Mushi and Gojira charge at each other. However, Gojira is instantly knocked down by the Hokmuto female's immense physical strength. The parasite to the Godzillasaur species smashes her massive hands down on Gojira's side a few times, inflicting immense pain that causes the disfigured young one to cry out. Before she can continue, she's suddenly blasted in her underside by a pink particle beam, knocking her over. Godzilla's daughter glances over in the direction of the beam and sees that Mechagodzilla has her covered.

All of a sudden, Mechagodzilla's particle cannon head is shot by Drone Tempest's missiles, instantly freezing the Nanometal and preventing it from deforming into other configurations. As the Bilusaludo machine titan struggles with its frozen head, the bio-mechanical humanoid rushes in and delivers a powerful right hook that shatters Mechagodzilla's head entirely. Although the doppelganger mech isn't down, it stumbles around a bit from the disorientation of losing its sensors and experiencing cryogenic stuttering of its core systems. The ascended drone takes this opportunity to throw several more punches into Mechagodzilla's torso, knocking it off balance further, before then sending the mech tumbling to the ground with a strong front kick.

While most of Godzilla's pack members are steadily losing ground against their respective opponents from Ghidorah's pack, the 2 Keizer Alphas themselves are locked in a much more even struggle.

The king of the monsters is gripping his rival by the golden dragon's left wing and managing to pivot King Ghidorah around a bit, albeit with great difficulty. All the while, Ghidorah's middle and left heads, Ichi and San, are biting down on Godzilla's snout and neck respectively; the right head, Ni, is biting down on Godzilla's left thigh and giving him incredible resistance. As the radiation-charged Godzillasaur elder pulls on Ghidorah's wing, the Vulture flocks fly overhead and rain railgun fire down on Ni's head and neck. Despite inflicting no damage, this is enough to force the right head to release its grip and give the monster king an opening.

With this opening, Godzilla drags King Ghidorah around by the wing, slamming his rival into the Omega Hybrid who was steadily forcing Gamera back in a power struggle and knocking it down. Gamera retaliates by firing a quick Neutron Burst at Ichi, briefly dazing the middle head. Godzilla then proceeds to grab Ghidorah's left and right heads and starts swinging him around with great difficulty and resistance. After a brief spell of pivoting, the elder Godzillasaur releases the 3-headed dragon, sending him skidding across the ground on all four limbs; he crashes into the Omega Hybrid, who was only just beginning to get back up, knocking over the bio-mechanical monstrosity.

The 2 kings roar at each other as they move towards one another yet again.

As the battles on the ground rage on, Mothra and Destroyah continue their aerial duel high above the battlefield.

The oxygen destroyer is in hot pursuit of Mothra, sporadically firing off Micro-Oxygen Beams at her quarry. Mothra effortlessly dodges the stray blasts, though she's unable to shake her pursuer. The moth goddess makes a sudden dive downward; Destroyah follows her trail. As she descends, Mothra spins in a drilling formation, scattering particles from her wings into a thick winding cloud. Destroyah continues to dive down after Mothra, unperturbed from flying through the thick dust-like substance. Just as she prepares to fire off another blast of Micro-Oxygen, Mothra suddenly hooks upwards, ascending right past the advanced colony lifeform.

Before Destroyah can react, the moth goddess's entire body is lit up by blinding white light. This serves to temporarily blind Destroyah, preventing her from guarding against the subsequent detonation of all the powder that was released from Mothra's wings. As Destroyah shakes off the damage and begins regenerating via temporary deforming injured areas into lower forms before then reforming them back into its current state, the abomination finds herself in a thick cloud of residue smoke. A noise from below her gets her to look down; it's a poor mistake on her part. Gamera suddenly bursts through the smoke and slams into the oxygen destroyer's abdomen. Mothra comes crashing down on her back shortly after, crunching her midsection and causing her to spit up a bit.

The 2 Keizer Betas attempt to back off for another coordinate strike, but Destroyah has other plans. She quickly grabs Gamera and Mothra by their heads with her right hand and grasping tail claw, respectively. Destroyah tosses Mothra away and slams Gamera down to the ground with incredible force directly in the middle of the non-Keizers' battles; all of them are knocked back by from the point of impact.

This battle is far from over.
