- Within the primary war room from which the C.D.F. has been operating during the brief conflict over the past week, there's a clear somber and quiet atmosphere; the most prominent examples of this would have to be Wei Ho and Anna Maximoff, who have just arrived following the events that went down in Cape Town.
- They shed no tears or show any greatly visible displays of sorrow, only subtle but clear expressions on their faces.
- (C.D.F. Security Guard): I've brought Doctors Ho and Maximoff, sir.
- (Gnl. Rico Rasczak): Alright, that'll be all.
- The two scientists' security escort exits the room, leaving the two of them at the doorway. Everyone in the room turns their attention to them, though no one looks as concerned as Jiro Ifukube does right now; the two of them don't return anyone's gazes and simply walk to the holographic projector table on the side opposite to General Rasczak and Ifukube.
- Soon enough, everyone else returns to their duties.
- (Jiro Ifukube): General, may I speak to my colleagues privately?
- (Gnl. Rico Rasczak): Of course, Jiro. Take all the time you need.
- The former Project Warmonger director puts his arms over the shoulders of his old companions and walks them over to an unoccupied table in the corner of the room; they all sit down together.
- For what seems like the longest half a minute in history, there is absolute silence; neither Jiro nor Wei and Anna, who sit opposite to him, speak up. After another moment, the elderly Japanese man finally breaks the quiet moment.
- (Jiro Ifukube): So.... It's over, then. Just like that.
- (Anna Maximoff): Yes. Most of the hostile Kaiju, Mimetic Colossi, and our own Guardian Sentinels were wiped out by that energy wave from what we now believe to be some super-massive Mana Derivation Complex built on both Mars and in Cape Town.
- (Jiro Ifukube): And.... the young one.
- At the mention of her, Anna Maximoff struggles to hold back some tears; Wei Ho is barely managing any better. Jiro Ifukube looks quite worried, but he decides to press on in a professional manner.
- (Jiro Ifukube): We've also lost Gamera and Mothra to an unknown rift in Transference Space, and Godzilla and Irys are presumed to be terminated. At the very least, our forces are cleaning up remnants of the Axis Alliance. It seems as though some of their key leaders were lost during the Cape Town Event, leading to disorganization and loss of morale.
- After their former superior finishes talking, Wei and Anna compose themselves with some deep breathing and chanting of some biometaphysical equations under their breath. They then reengage Jiro in conversation.
- (Wei Ho): So where does this leave us?
- (Jiro Ifukube): Well, it'll take at least a few years before we can get Guardian Sentinel production going, and there's no guarantee that this is the last we've seen of hostile Kaiju. This means that we have a chance at building that body for our ex-Warmonger guiding minds. The G.U.D. and Da'at Yichud have also been collaborating on possible countermeasures we could work on to, at the very least, deter roaming Kaiju.
- (Anna Maximoff): And.... the body?
- (Jiro Ifukube): General Rasczak's forces are currently moving into the heart of Cape Town to secure Jira's body for proper burial on Jiran Island. She'll also have a full memorial service so that you can pay your respects.

- At the site where the immense battle between the C.D.F. and the Axis Alliance's giant allies, a large crew with heavy lift gear and transport platforms are moving in. When they reach the site where Godzilla had laid down his daughter's body, however, the find the area completely empty.
- There appear to be drag marks from the spot where her body depressed the ground, but they're much smaller than they should be for a creature her size, even given her deformed and burnt condition at the time.
