  11. From an opening in the roof of Hayden Station of the U.A.C.'s Mars complex, a beam of blue light shoots out and soars straight upwards, perfectly aligning in the centre of the ring of energy formed by the cycling Kree warships; the beam's tip stops within this circle. Seven identical energy beams are emitted from the inner part of the ring; they conjoin with the beam that came from the surface facility.
  12.  
  13. This crossing of streams forms a growing orb of crackling blue energy that eventually culminates in another larger and denser stream to shoot straight upwards into the upper atmosphere. As this beam breaks atmosphere and enters the void of space, a rift in space suddenly opens up in the path of the energy lance.

  25. In the void of space above the area where the battle for Cape Town is taking place, a rift in space suddenly opens up.
  26.  
  27. Coinciding with this rift is a large beam of light identical to the one that shot into the rift over Mars; this one comes bursting out of the ground, completely halting the intense combat between monsters and machines on the ground as they all stop to stare at this strange new development.
  28.  
  29. Once the beam exits the atmosphere and enters the rift in space, it makes contact with an identical beam of energy; the resulting clash produces a massive flash of light, as well as invisible shockwaves that ripple outwards from both sides. Despite the clear immense energies at play here, there don't appear to be any tangible aftermath effects from the shockwaves. Curiously, if one were to look through the roof, one could see the faintest glimpse of what appears to be Mars, the red planet.
  30.  
  31. Gamera and Mothra prepare to exit the area via rift travel; they grab hold of Jira in order to whisk her with them. Unfortunately, Irys takes notice of this. Despite being pinned down by Godzilla's relentless onslaught, some of his tendrils are free enough to aim behind their tussle. He manages to fire off some sonic beams down range, blasting Jira away from Gamera and Mothra's reach and into the beam of energy.
  32.  
  33. The young Godzillasaur's collision with the beam creates a large energy shockwave that throws back all of the Kaiju, Mimetic Colossi, and Guardian Sentinels in the immediate vicinity in addition to causing immense pain to the young monster; Gamera and Mothra are also thrown through their rift prematurely after being hit by this energy wave.
  34.  
  35. Upon hearing his daughter cry out, Godzilla immediately ceases his assault against the pinned Irys and rushes off to reach his kin. Irys, however, has other things in mind and trips the king of the monsters up with his tendrils.
  36.  
  37. Even with his opponent on the ground, the Atlantean demon struggles to hold Godzilla back as the elder Godzillasaur desperately tries to crawl to his offspring. Irys then decides to jump on top of his quarry, using his weight to keep him pinned down as best as possible; he also stabs his blade arms into Godzilla's back for good measure. Despite all of this, the monster king still struggles against all odds and is slowly but surely making progress as he crawls along the ground in the direction of his daughter.
  38.  
  39.  
  40. "This is the way the world ends, and I begin."
  41.  
  42.  
  43. A large ripple of energy moves downward from the clash of beams on both sides of the rift. Once it reaches the ground, a massive all-encompassing shockwave emanates from the the point of impact, engulfing all of the Kaiju, Mimetic Colossi, Guardian Sentinels, and especially Jira, who was at ground zero of this energy wave; Irys and Godzilla are just outside the range of this energy. Upon contact with this wave, Jira and the other titans are engulfed in a searing white crackling energy.
  44.  
  45. This white energy eats away at the other giants, leaving nothing but ashes and a few burnt odds and ends. Jira, meanwhile, has had her skin completely burned off; some of her musculature has also been vaporized.
  46.  
  47.  
  48. "It seems as though my worries have been taken care of, now. My agent, if you would?"
  49.  
  50.  
  51. Irys, while looking up at the clash of beams in the sky, tries to bring Godzilla up to his two feet. However, the old Godzillasaur refuses to budge; Irys tries again, but again to no avail. On the third attempt, Irys is suddenly blown back by a powerful nuclear pulse, the most powerful seen yet by Godzilla; his blade arms are broken off by this blast, leaving them stuck in the monster king's back.
  52.  
  53. The monstrous reptile briefly looks back at his foe, who seems to be quite concussed from his nuclear pulse, before turning his attention to his daughter. He slowly lumbers towards the beam and crouches down; he takes his dying daughter into his arms and nuzzles her intently. There are no roars of pained sadness or tears, or indeed any vocalizations from the king of the monsters, only a single physical display. As Godzilla holds his kin, an immense amount of radiation emanates from his body, enough to kill most normal lifeforms.
  54.  
  55. The king of the monsters rises to his feet and moves off to the side a little bit; he gently places his daughter down.
  56.  
  57. Godzilla then lumbers back to the beam and looks at it intently. There are clear signs of rage in his expression, though they're subdued and coincide with intense determination. All of a sudden, Irys comes flying in from the side; this surprise attack is cut short when the king of the monsters simply grabs the Atlantean monster by the neck without even looking at him. Godzilla then slams Irys into the beam, prompting him to cry out in pain. As he does this, his dorsal plates glow an intense blue; both monsters' bodies begin to crack and ripple with energy similar to that of the beam.
  58.  
  59. Eventually, both collapse into pure energy that flows into the beam. Once their astral energies reach the epicentre of the clash within the rift, a massive explosion follows that collapses the rift and the beams that were keeping it stable. In addition to this, the rings of energy that were amplifying the beams are vaporized.
  60.  
  61. It's over.
