- Within the deep recesses of the G.U.D.'s main base, the storage level containing the last of the original Warmongers rests. It was after the conclusion of Second Wave that work began on the development of their successors, the Colossi.
- To accomplish this, the G.U.D. took over operational authority of Project Warmonger and began a mass dismantling of all stored models of Warmonger units to provide the raw materials and sensitive internal components necessary in creating a superior line of enormous defense constructs. Unfortunately, this meant that no more Warmongers could be reactivated and deployed; all other resources went towards construction on the G.U.D.'s lunar base.
- Now, the only remaining Warmongers are the original four who survived the duration of Second Wave: Tzar Bomba V2, the Russian behemoth; Union's Warrior, the African defender; Serizawa's Light, the Japanese ace; and Blade of the People, the Chinese marvel.
- Director Jiro Ifukube once again steps onto a raised platform overlooking his Warmongers; he's joined by two of his closest associates, Dr. Anna Maximoff and Dr. Wei Ho. They all look at each other and nod. At this, Director Ifukube raises his hand, giving the signal to various engineers and other workers situated around the Warmonger docking stations.
- Everyone is now busy measuring gauges, checking the computer systems, and prepping the stations for release of the massive machines. After several minutes of preparation, the bay's sirens blare; everyone clears out of the immediate vicinity of the docking stations.
- Several seconds pass by where nothing happens. Finally, the lights strewn across the hulls of the Warmongers flicker, getting brighter and more rapid, before ending in all of the hull lights suddenly turning off; they then spontaneously turn back on at full capacity. All of the personnel cheer; the Warmongers start to flex their arms and fingers. Of the four, Blade of the People is the first to step forward off of her docking station; her head is directly at eye level with Director Ifukube's platform.
- (Feng Lee): You called, sir?
- (Director Ifukube): I'm surprised you're so nonchalant after being awoken from 5 years of downtime.
- The other three Warmongers begin to step off their pedestals, out of their respective docking stations. Tzar Bomba V2 even raises her hands into the air as if to stretch, only to accidentally hit the ceiling and cause bits of it to crumble to the floor; she quickly retracts her arms back towards her body.
- (Feng Lee): Better to be ready to go back to duty at anytime. So, what's new?
- (Dr. Ho): Well, a lot has happened in the past few years, and--
- (Feng Lee): Doc, I was just being polite. I know what's going on.
- (Dr. Ho): *visibly stunned* I...... whaa.....
- Dr. Maximoff puts her hand on her confused friend's shoulder.
- (Dr. Maximoff): Wei, they've been linked to the Net since they were put away in storage.
- (Dr. Ho): Oh.... now I feel stupid.
- (Feng Lee): Don't. I only know things that were noted down in official documents and news sources. Another Irys, eh? And Laura's traveling with Gamera too?
- (Director Ifukube): That's right. And the Children of Monsters are suspected to be the operators of that mysterious fleet of vessels that emerged from underneath the Xiao Long Insurance building following Godzilla's battle with Gamera.
- Blade of the People leans closer to the platform; her friends walk up behind her.
- (Feng Lee): And you need us to split into two teams. One investigating the fleet and Godzilla, and the other following Gamera and Laura back to Atlantis. Also, I know you'll probably say no, but..... I have an idea of how I want my team organized for these tasks.
- (Director Ifukube): Very well. I defer the decision to you, Warmonger leader.
- All of the Warmongers salute to Director Ifukube, who salutes back. The Warmongers proceed to get back onto their docking stations, and the pedestals they're standing on lift up; the hangar doors above them open up to allow their platforms to ascend to the surface.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- In a rundown shack in the South American Wasteland, a Human and a Synthetic are reading some comic books; they're surrounded by several shelves of high-tech surveillance equipment. The Synthetic's comic cover shows a superhero with a snail's body as a head on a buff body, and a villain with an ammonite-esque creature's body for a head on a thin and distinctly scientist-looking body. It reads as, "Masktropod VS. Heel-X: The Hitchhikers #42".
- All of a sudden, a repetitive and loud knocking is heard on the door.
- (Surveillance Guy): Dammit, who the hell could that be?
- (Surveillance Synthetic): I'll go check.
- The Synthetic opens the door and is immediately shot in the head; he falls to the floor with a thud. A second shot fires off, and a second thud on the floor is heard.
