《Godzilla: Legend Begins》Chapter 7
Advertisement
Jesse sat on the deck of John's ship, her laptop open on her lap. Her fingers danced skillfully across the keyboard as she typed. on the screen was the satellite image of the island and Godzilla that was on the monitor in the K-Force base. Now that she could see the picture more closely, she could make out the jagged rocks that was below a cliff and the form that was Godzilla's dorsal plates heading away from the island.
"Hey." a voice broke through the quiet atmosphere. She tore her eyes away from the screen and looked up and saw that it was Kanto. The man wore his usual military uniform but left his jacket unbuttoned, revealing a dark grey t-shirt underneath. "You look like you have something on your mind. Want to share with the class?" Jesse could feel the corner of her lips twitch upwards before speaking.
"This Godzilla have been alive since 1954 when some of the bombs were tested. That's sixty years he's been alive, yet he never showed himself until now."
"Don't think too much about it. There's a lot of creatures that we have yet to discover that has been around longer." Kanto told her. "Once we get to the island, we will make sure to do something that will make sure it won't terrorize anyone."
"Hey! You two! We got a hit on the radar!" Shouted John from the door to the cabin. Jesse stood and the two walked over, slipping into the control room.
On the radar, at the top, was a shape that was heading straight towards them.
"Whatever it is." One of the men of John's crew started. "It's big and heading straight towards us!"
"Drop Anchor!" Ordered John as he stopped the ship and turned off the engine before he walked out of the cabin, followed by Jesse and Kanto. A resounding splash came from the side of the ship, signaling that his order was followed. Jesse felt Kanto grabbed her elbow, getting her attention. She looked forward, at the front of the ship and her breath hitched.

Three sets of blue, jagged plates were coming straight at them at an amazing speed. Just as it seemed like it wasn't going to slow down and was going to hit them, the thing stopped. After a tense moment, the mass slowly began to move.
A head slowly rose out of the water first, it's snout was narrow, giving the head a more reptilian look to it. Small ears protrude from each side of the head and its eyes were a fiery red. Large dragon-like fangs lined its mouth. Its torso bursts from the water, revealing charcoal black scales.
"Holy shit..." Kanto gaped at the massive beast. He didn't think that they'd encounter Godzilla like this and without any weapons mounted on the ship. Jesse, on the other hand, was staring up at the beast unblinkingly, her eyes tracing every scale and muscle. A deep rumble sounded within Godzilla's chest, making Jesse focus on the creature's head and his eyes met hers. She felt something curiously probing against her mind before it pushed into it. Images flew by her, some of her own memories, others of jungle on an island. When the thing pulled back, she was dazed and staring into space.
She soon got out of her daze when Godzilla let out a bellowing roar before turning and dived back underneath the surface, swam off and disappeared, leaving the crew in shock at what just happened.
"What the hell?!" John shouted. "What the hell was that?!"
"I...I don't know..." Jesse responded.
"He just seemed to stare at you before leaving!"
"I don't understand it myself..."
"Come on, we have to get to the island." Kanto interrupted once he noted the time. John gave him a dark look before ordering the anchor up and the engine to get turned on. Within seconds, they were off again.
Jesse couldn't stop thinking about what had just happened. What did it mean?

That time I got re-incarnated in Fire - Red
Ben Stiller did not expect to find himself waking up inside the Pokemon Fire - Red game. He also did not expect to find out how badly a game like this translates into real life!What to expect:- Some comedy, light, dark or otherwise whatever I feel like.- Some interesting twists in the story as I personally play through the game for reference IRL :)- Blue screens... maybe for the MC, definately not for you guys though :p- I don't think there will be all that much in the way of romance, the MC is in the body of a 10 year old.- Also, there won't really be any disturbing shit dispite what the cover might suggest.- The MC is not overtly bad or a psycho or anything, but is a bit 'care-free'- Honestly I just wanted to write something randomly for some stress relief!
