《Relief of Guilt》Downfall
Advertisement
King Ghidorah held their heads high as their intimidating eyes never left Godzilla and Kong, who were staring at her with the same intensity.
"What was Kong doing in front of you?" Ghidorah asked.
Godzilla prepared a teleportation spell to use on Kong, and Ghidorah lunged, using their wings to increase their speed. Godzilla was faster, and Kong was gone well before Ghidorah crash-landed at Godzilla's feet.
Godzilla frowned when she took in her soon-to-be-ex-boyfriend smothered in dirt from falling over. Ghidorah slowly got up and shook the dirt off, licking their wings quickly.
"Where did you send him?" Ghidorah whispered.
"I'm not telling you!" Godzilla sighed. "Not when we already have so much to talk about."
"Right, you still haven't verbally reciprocated our love." Ghidorah stopped grooming and looked at Godzilla. "We've come here to put your mind at ease about us, because we love you from the moon and back. We're aware that we have eternity to figure this all out, but we don't want you falling for anyone else, our star pupil."
Godzilla's dread grew, knowing that everything was wrong here. She knew she wasn't in love, but she realized that she wasn't even falling in love either. The most she felt for Ghidorah was when she could feel the tall titan walk past her down hallways in the castle. Even their first kiss felt weird, as if she was kissing her own father.
Godzilla had rationalized her lack of feelings over and over again: maybe she was aromantic, or demi, anything to justify why she couldn't feel strongly for the King that gave her everything. She could hardly understand why she's even willing to give up that for a Kong that she once called her enemy.
But she knew one look from Kong did more to her than Ghidorah roaming her black body with their delicate claws. Godzilla wanted to break things off now more than ever.
She knew what Komodithrax meant now, her and Kong were meant to be.
"I don't need eternity to decide my decision." Godzilla told them. "It's over, Ghidorah. I've now realized that I was never in love with you, and I can't change that."
"We can give you a d-dose of a love spell!" Ghidorah begged. "Godzilla, there's no need to be so rash. Allow us to use our magic, and we can make you feel the same way for us-"
"No! Do you ever take me seriously?!" Godzilla finally snapped. "I'm a grown titan just like you now, not a conflicted child! I'm just as free-thinking and responsible as you, maybe even more responsible!"
"And who do you have to thank for that?" Ghidorah scowled. "You were just a friendless egghead with your muzzle stuck in books before you met us, you owe us your life! As the co-ruler of the Alien Faction, we demand that you remain dedicated to us for eter-"
"Fuck no!" Godzilla yelled.
Ghidorah went silent, their entire body trembling as they held themselves back. Godzilla didn't care, staring daggers at her former teacher.
"You spoiled simple titan, you were nothing before we turned you into an alpha." Ghidorah growled. "You were right by the way, we were never impressed with your pathetic spurts of fire. We only turned you into an alpha so we could feel the luxurious black scales on your ass and hear you cry out our name for eternity."
"I..." Godzilla's eyes widened.
"You cannot leave us Godzilla. If you do, you'll have nothing left." Ghidorah sighed. "We can destroy Titanville, take away your powers, and imprison your friends all with a beam of powerful magic if you don't stay with us."

"Ghidorah, if you're really in love with me, you'd leave me and Kong alone." Godzilla frowned.
"We fucking knew that you liked him!" Ghidorah cried. "I can't believe it, this is how you're going to let us break up? For a no good, stupid, scarred purposeless Monkey?"
"He is more of a male than you'll ever be!" Godzilla retorted. "Ghidorah, you were one of the most important titan's in my life, why can't you just be happy for me?"
"Because, we've given you everything and all we've asked is for your unwavering loyalty." Ghidorah stepped away from Godzilla, taking a deep breath. "I've made up my mind. Godzilla, if you follow through with breaking up with us, we won't destroy Titanville or hurt your friends. But we'll have to consult the other alpha's about having your status reverted back to a regular Gojira, as well as evict you from this castle."
"So, your decision." Ghidorah held their stern expression.
"I'm standing by my decision." Godzilla decided.
Before Ghidorah could react, Godzilla teleported back into her castle, casting a protection spell over her castle before calling out for Minya.
"Minya?!" Godzilla yelled through the halls. "MINYA!"
"I'm here, what's wrong?" Minya ran to Godzilla's side.
"Hurry, get a paper and pen, I need to said a letter to Queen Moonhidora. It's an emergency." Godzilla explained. "Ghidorah is planning on taking everything that I have."
Minya didn't ask anymore questions. He flew away and came back seconds later with a piece of paper and a feather pen, ready to write Godzilla's letter.
"Dear Queen Moonhidora, the stability of the world is in your brother's claws. I've dumped them for another male, and now their threatening to take away everything I have. I expected Battra, Keiser, and even Fire Rodan to be the cause of my downfall, but never the titan that practically raised me. You need to reason with them before it's too late, before somebody gets hurt. Your brother's former student, Queen Godzilla."
Minya rolled up the letter and blew green fire at it, sending it to Moonhidora's room. Godzilla collapsed, covering her eyes with her claws and gritting her teeth.
"I'm sorry, this is what I was worried about."
"Kong?" Godzilla stood up and looked at him, he was now back in his signature armour, and holding his mighty axe. "How long have you been there?"
"I got here as soon as I heard you yelling for Minya." Kong responded. "I'll gather your friends here, we may have a war coming straight to Titanville-"
"Ghidorah is not going to cause a war." Godzilla insisted. "They're just extremely emotional, they'll get over it after a few days. I just need their sisters to keep them from making any impulse decisions that they'll regret later."
"I'm not leaving your side." Kong decided. "Not until Queen Moonhidora responds to your letter, at least."
Godzilla didn't protest, she knew that Kong was willing to die for her, and there was nothing she could do about it. Instead she walked towards Kong and lifted the titan into a hug.
"I don't want to wait for this to blow over." Godzilla looked into Kong's eyes. "I want to kiss you now. Ghidorah shouldn't stop us from loving each other."
Kong looked around to see that Minya had left, before moving his head to meet Godzilla's lips with his own. Never in his life had Kong felt this much emotion; intense love and fear were swirling in his head. It had become too much, and Kong pulled away and ran to the window.

There only a few feet away, was King Ghidorah staring at Kong with shock on the other side. Kong climbed onto the ledge, and Ghidorah scowled before teleporting away.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The darkness and silence of the night sky was overwhelming as soon as Ghidorah teleported back to Ailelot. Their normal surroundings felt so much heavier that they couldn't move right away. It was still sinking in that their former student, that had meant so much to them, had denied them in every way.
They loved Godzilla so much, gave her everything! And she still ended up falling in love with a mortal monkey, if Ghidorah could even call him that.
Ghidorah unfolded their wings and started flying to the castle. Now that the moon was up, Moonhidora would be awake. It would be perfect time to start discussing about Godzilla's fate, and once they got their sisters on their side, they could corner Queen Mothra, then the other alphas. After all, the Light Moth Alpha has an emotional attachment to Godzilla as Ghidorah once did, and two against one would force her to accept Godzilla's forced resignation.
They flew into an open window in the castle to see Moonhidora waiting for them. They barely landed on their feet and stood up to face their sisters, making sure to keep their calm demeanor.
"Our dear Moon, it appears that Godzilla had manipulated us." Ghidorah lied. "She convinced us that she was in love with us so she could become an Alpha, and have her own castle and power. It was a mistake that we let love blind us, but we must undo this mistake and change her back into a regular Gojira."
"Brothers...We received a letter from Godzilla only a few minutes ago." Moonhidora began.
Shit, Ghidorah thought.
"She said that she broke up with you for another male, and we understand that it hurts you greatly." They frowned. "But we know Godzilla, she genuinely worked for all of this. And your relationship with her didn't even start until the night of your play, so how would she have told you this without a relationship forming at the time you made her Princess?"
"I-"
"Ghi, you need rest." Moonhidora approached their brothers and rested her wing on their back. "We'll use a sleeping spell to help you, and we'll check on your dreams several times tonight. Don't worry, we'll be here for you."
Ghidorah felt the anger inside them rising until it all disappeared. They felt a pink energy emitting from their sister's, and started to feel drowsy.
"You...need to believe us!" Ghidorah begged as they fell onto the floor. "God....."
Ghidorah didn't finish their sentence before they closed their eyes and fell asleep. Moonhidora teleported Ghidorah's body onto the nearest bed in the castle, and sighed.
"Oh dear brothers, please be okay."
Godzilla finally felt like she was living her best life: she was living with Kong in the castle, two of her best friends were planning their wedding, her school was thriving better than ever, and Bathra took Minya and Cranium to his mini kingdom only a few days ago.
It was just a vacation, and Minya and Cranium would be back in a few days, but it gave Godzilla plenty of time to be intimate with her new boyfriend. And the night before, they had made love for the first time for both of them. It was perfect.
She felt comfort as the moon rose over Titanville, remembering the letter Moonhidora sent back, telling her that everything would be okay. Godzilla had heard nothing from Ghidorah, and hoped to speak to them on good terms one day. They'd have eternity to figure it out.
Godzilla froze in the middle of her walk down the hallway, remembering that her beloved was mortal. She wondered if she had the same power that her former mentor had; perhaps she could make her boyfriend immortal. Was there any law against that?
No, Godzilla thought, there's hardly any laws in these Kingdoms to begin with.
Godzilla was no longer frozen in concern, prancing down the hallway to the bed she shared with Kong. She knew that Kong was waiting for her, probably reading one of Godzilla's books. Her heart bloomed with love at the thought, and all was well.
The same could not be said for King Ghidorah.
They had explosive fits with any of the guards that spoke to them, and avoided their sisters whenever they could. Time couldn't heal this wound, they were convinced of it.
The one titan she couldn't seem to avoid was theirs and Moonhidora's therapist, and Ghidorah knew that their sisters had sent the therapist to check up on them constantly. The beige-colored titan followed Ghidorah down the hallway, taking notes and adjusting her glasses over her big blue eyes.
"Ghidorah, please let me help you-"
"What do you know about us alpha's?" Ghidorah snapped. "Hundreds of years later, Godzilla will still not want us. But both you and Kong will be dead by then. Maybe sooner if you don't leave us alone!"
Their therapist, shrieked and bolted in the other direction. Running past Queen Moonhidorah, who flew to their brother's side.
"Ghidorah, please, you may have as much time to grieve as you wish, but you cannot lash out at the guards and servants of our castle." Moonhidora pleaded. "We love you, dear brothers. We're all here for you."
"Except Godzilla. And she's all that matters." Ghidorah looked out the window, avoiding Moonhidora's gaze.
"Ghidorah! You can't be saying that none of us matter! That...we don't matter?" Moonhidora stepped back. "We're the most important titan in your life, and you are in ours. Godzilla is allowing you time to move on, that's all she can do."
"All she can do?!" Ghidorah's heads swiftly turned as they glared daggers at their sisters. "She can give back everything that we gave her. Her powers, her castle, her friends, her damn baby brother, and her place in Titanville. We gave her a home there, when she should be back in Alielot-"
"You sent her there!" Moonhidora retorted, backing up against the wall. Ghidorah moved towards her and stopped.
"We made a mistake, letting her go. We made a mistake, coming back to her." Ghidorah whispered. "We made a mistake thinking you'd understand. Cause notitan loves you like we love Godzilla."
Moonhidora's eyes widened and they bolted in the same direction that their therapist left in. King Ghidorah took a deep breath, one that did nothing to calm the raging storm in their heart.
They walked into their room, slamming the door closed with a swift kick. Their thoughts wouldn't stop...
They thought about waiting for Kong to pass away, for Godzilla to open her eyes and realize that there was only one infinite love in her life.
But what if Godzilla still denied them? Waiting in agony, only to have their heart broken all over again would be too much for Ghidorah.
What are we supposed to do?!
Then, the thoughts of Godzilla and Kong being together were again replaced with the violent thoughts that Ghidorah was trying to repress. Thoughts of Kong being turned into a broken bloody pile of limbs in front of Godzilla, and knowing that after such violence, Godzilla would never fight back again. Rather, the light of rebellion would be extinguished from her forever.
One day, she would thank Ghidorah in ways that would arouse them if they weren't so livid.
These fantasies were too good to pass up, and King Ghidorah channeled their anger in a way that Queen Moonhidora did over a thousand years ago. Yellow swirls of magic rapidly surrounded their body before all of them entered Ghidorah's body at once, and they vanished into a white ball before the ball disappeared, revealing a different titan entirely.
They grinned, revealing sharp teeth. Stormcrusher knew that they could accomplish what their weak former self could not: killing Kong.
But why stop there? Stormcrusher could destroy buildings and countless lives, and Godzilla would surrender quickly. Their eyes lit up as she noticed the lightning that wrapped around their torso; they could light Titanville on Fire!
Stormcrusher noticed that the carpet beneath them was on fire, and they put it out with a few stomps. After all, they couldn't have Moonhidora knowing of their plan until after the deed was done. Well, they could easily get rid of them if necessary.
Stormcrusher opened the window to see a storm thundering harder than ever before, and they cursed angrily. It was supposed to be a clear night, and Moonhidora would notice the storm right away.
Well, guess they had to get rid of them now.
"GHIDORAH!" They heard their dumb former sisters cry out. "GHID-"
Stormcrusher kicked the door down and ran towards Moonhidora and clocked her in the head, rendering her unconscious. They casted an even stronger sleeping spell that would keep them asleep for
"By then, we'll decide what to do with them." Stormcrusher huffed.
They teleported Moonhidora's body into the nearest closet and locked the door. Killing seemed unnecessary at the moment, unless they wanted to kill her and the other alpha's. Then they and their beloved Godzilla could be the sole rulers of .
It was a possibility that Stormcrusher found delightful.
Stormcrusher returned to the window and breathed in the wet air, feeling absolutely euphoric now that Kong's death was within their grasp.
They leapt out the window and took flight, teleporting to a few yards from Titanville.
They saw some stray titans outside, huddled in a circle. But everyone else appeared to be asleep and in their homes still. Stormcrusher smirked, their eternal storms didn't give her away here.
They flew closer to Ponyville, and three balls of lightning generated from their mouths.
Aiming their muzzles in the direction of the titan circle, making the rain cease they spat the balls of lightning right into Titanville, causing the area to catch in flames.
They heard desperate screaming, but their rampage had only begun.

Necromancer and Co.
In a time before the existence of the present, the gods decided to create a plane of existence where all their creations could exist in the same place. In it, all would be fair, and all gaps between races and technological advancements could be crossed with a single system that the gods had created. Every year, the gods would choose a new race to put in their land, and in this new group of beautifully unlucky people, Alen, his friends, and a few people from Earth have finally met their turn to be tossed into the playground of the gods. Unfortunately though, Alen was thrust into a forest of corpse-eating bears and horribly smelly undead on his first day, one of the many danger-zones of the continent the gods had chosen to throw them in. It would be easy to say that he simply died within the first day, or that he'd starved to death or whatever, but let's be honest... That story would be no fun to tell, yes? (Re-write of my first fiction with the same name.)
