- From the Atlantic Ocean, a massive object approaches; it's getting closer and closer to the coastal city. Despite clear suppression taking effect, large waves still wash many free-floating boats and sea life into the harbour; a small streak of black and blue lightning can be briefly made out moving at supersonic speeds ahead of all of this tidal destruction.
- Soon enough, the source of these surges makes itself known:
- Godzilla.
- The king of the monsters gets up on his two feet after entering the shallows. The old Godzillasaur slowly moves his head around to take in his surroundings, though he's obviously not actually receiving any visual information due to being blind in both eyes. The streak of light from before moves through the abandoned streets and over the bombed-out buildings; Godzilla, noticing the object, starts to lumber into the city.
- Back in the harbour, a trio of scout drones are flying over the water.
- (Jiro Ifukube): [COMMS] Cape Town..... one of the few areas where we've yet to gain any solid foothold after the initial invasion.
- (Gnl. Rico Rasczak): [COMMS] We better tread carefully, Jiro. All other drones we've sent in have been downed before we could get a good grasp of what's going on in the city.
- The three drones ascend to Godzilla's height in order to get a better lay of the land. As they soar over the majority of the ruined infrastructure, occasional signs of activity can be made out; some Loyalist Mimetics patrolling from the rooftops, a Post-Human poking his/her head out before ducking back out of sight, etc.
- The drones continue to follow Godzilla, whom is lumbering without any concern for the buildings in his way. As the group moves forward, a set of infrastructure comes into view. It appears to be some kind of fortress; it's composed of many large stone pillars that don't seem to come from the closest quarries or the infrastructure in the surrounding areas.
- Before the drones can move in further, their camera feeds start to show signs of static and cutting out; this short-circuiting coincides with a sharp increase in electromagnetic radiation and electric potential in the air. This uptick seems to be sourced from the dorsal plates on Godzilla's back, which is all but confirmed when the maple leaf-shaped protrusions become flush with a blue energy that grows more intense as Godzilla continues to charge; this can only mean one thing:
- An atomic breath.
- (Gnl. Rico Rasczak): [COMMS] Dammit, his E.M.P.s are gonna fry our reconnaissance units! Steer them out of there!
- Upon the general's command, the drones turn around and quickly fly away.
- Before they can make their escape, a figure leaps from the top of a nearby skyscraper and instantly destroys the reconnaissance units; the figure is made of looks to be pure shadow and darkness.
- Meanwhile, Godzilla finishes charging up his atomic breath, to a rather impressive degree at that, and unleashes a powerful burst of nuclear energy that creates a massive chain reaction when it makes contact with the stone fortress; a large explosion follows impact, and several electronic devices that were still functioning within the Godzillasaur's immediate proximity begin to short-circuit.
- Once the debris cloud dies down, a large hole that's big enough for Godzilla to walk through presents itself. Through this opening, the looming figure of the Keizer known as Irys can be seen; he's sitting down on a large slab of the same stone that makes up the fortress's walls with his back to the king of the monsters.

- After being briefed by Colonel Curie Polendina, Gojira and Gamera are preparing to leave. As the young monster prodigy climbs onto her companion's back, she briefly looks back at the colonel and the people she's evacuating.
- (Col. Curie Polendina): I wish I could've been more helpful.
- (Anna Maximoff): [COMMS] It's fine, colonel. We know that Zoom is our next lead, and we've gotten a report from Jiro regarding Godzilla suddenly breaking off. He speculates that Zoom is the reason that Godzilla is on the move.
- (Col. Curie Polendina): I wish you four happy hunting, then.
- Gamera activates his jets and prepares to fly off. As he begins to ascend, Gojira looks back down at the evacuees and C.D.F. remnants; there seems to be the slightest hint of sadness in her eyes. Everyone on the ground waves goodbye to the two monsters before continuing their evacuation. As the transport vessels and railgun tanks move together out of the ruined remains of the city, they become smaller and smaller as Gojira and Gamera continue to ascend into the sky; they eventually become too small to be visible.
- Little Jira, however, is still looking down where the group would've been, as though she could still sense them.
