---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the distorted hellscape that is now Tokyo, the dastardly plan hatched by Jiro Ifukube is under way.

On pieces of floating metal debris, Jiro's teams are using magnetic seals to hold the exotic radiation lures. On the largest piece, Jiro and the Zeus A.I. are setting up the bio-acoustics of Godzilla within the latter's container; his containment core is the only piece of technology capable of producing a strong enough signal to attract the attention of King Ghidorah and his pack while they're in the process of laying waste to the Americas.

After securing the radiation lures, Jiro Ifukube's teams start securing the super-weapon ordnance in strategic locations nearby that will be detonated once Ghidorah and Destroyah have come into proximity. As they're being set up, the former director of the defunct Project Warmonger looks out in the distance. He sees a cloud of unknown smoke that doesn't seem to be the result of the gravity storms or Micro-Oxygen haze; even the Zeus A.I.'s sensors can't detect any kind of signals or readings from within the cloud that is moving closer to Tokyo.


(Zeus A.I.): It appears as though we have early guests.

(Jiro Ifukube): Might be one of the ground-bound members of the pack. They're moving slow enough that they won't overtake Ghidorah and Destroyah if they're motivated enough by our lure.

(Zeus A.I.): Then all that's left is to broadcast the signal. It has been.... an interesting life for certain.

(Jiro Ifukube): You and me both.


As soon as the rest of the teams leave aboard their aircraft upon finishing setting up the trap point, Jiro Ifukube puts his hand on the Gorgon's Head, activating the bio-acoustics broadcast that he coded to only play with his biometrics access. From the Atlantean A.I. container, a low beeping sound periodically sounds off. Though it seems relatively quiet to the Human ear, it's quite pronounced in both high and low frequency waves.

As predicted, the moment the signal goes off, the storms in the direction of the Americas become increasingly violent as their source makes his way across the land and ocean; the land-locked members of King Ghidorah's pack would have to rely on Hollow Earth tunnels to keep up in any capacity.

A few hours pass, with Jiro Ifukube having fallen asleep momentarily. A sudden thud that shakes the very foundation he was resting on wakes him right up, prompting him to step out from the small tent he set up. He finds himself not floating in midair due to a distorted localized gravitational field, but instead on the ground. In fact, every single piece of the city that was floating a few hours ago has fallen back down to the ground. The storm above is raging as violently as before, though there is noticeably much more rain than before.


(Jiro Ifukube): We're down on the ground? But why--


Before he can ponder, 2 massive shapes drop down from the clouds above. Ghidorah and Destroyah have arrived.

Barely a few moments later, the ground shakes hard, leading to a huge sinkhole giving way behind the 2 Keizers. From this fracture in the earth, Jinshin-Mushi crawls out; she's followed by the Omega Hybrid, Drone Tempest, and Obsidian Fury. With all of Ghidorah's pack present, they begin looking around, trying to find the source of the bio-acoustics signal. Some of them stumble upon the exotic radiation lures, but none have taken notice of Jiro Ifukube's tiny camp.

This is the perfect opportunity.


(Jiro Ifukube): Eat this you sons of bitches.


Jiro Ifukube inputs the commands on his datapad, activating the super-weapons laid around the area. Just as each warhead is in the midst of exploding violently, King Ghidorah reacts quickly enough to roar with all 3 heads towards the sky. Within the span of under a second, gravity lightning strikes down with pinpoint accuracy at each explosion, engulfing them in bubbles of distorted gravity. Mere moments later, the explosions die down within their bubbles; the gravity lightning ceases shortly after. The golden demise lumbers forward and looks down at the ground at his feet, now clearly seeing the tiny little Human before him. His necks start to glow with golden light, and he prepares to unleash his Gravity Beams upon the heathen insect; Jiro Ifukube simply remains resolute as he accepts his fate.

All of a sudden, a bright blue and white beam of energy strikes Ghidorah's chest, knocking him off his feet. A second blast of energy sweeps across the other members of the pack, similarly knocking them down. Jiro Ifukube looks behind him and sees the source of his rescue emerging out from the untraceable cloud he spotted hours ago; he can't help but smile at what he sees.

Godzilla has arrived.

But it's not just the king of the monsters. The dark cover is suddenly sucked back by an entity behind Godzilla, revealing Gamera, Mothra, Gojira, Jet Jaguar, and Mechagodzilla; the latter appears to have been the source of the concealing gas. As the true king of monsters roars loudly to sound off his arrival, the entire Vulture flock flies in overhead.

Now it's war.
