《Godzilla: Legend Begins》Chapter 14
Advertisement
Kanto stood in front of some monitors with Jesse and John on either side of him. On the monitors were the Prime Minister, the US president, the secretary of defense and military personnel, General Jackson McGee. Beside the monitors stood Fubaki Ogata.
"Sir." Kanto stood ramrod straight, arms pressed against his sides. "May we present our findings now that we are here?"
"Proceed." the president nodded.
"The island that we went to were home to creatures we didn't expect to find. There was a herd of dinosaurs that we previously thought was extinct. Jesse and I concluded that these dinosaurs were what Godzilla was before he mutated."
"Shouldn't we worry about these dinosaurs might mutate into more Godzillas?" questioned the general. "That is why Captain Krill radioed it in."
"They won't mutate." Jesse stepped forward. "There was no radiation on that island at all."
"How can you be so sure?" Ogata asked her, causing Jesse to look at him.
"Did you detect any radiation on us after your pick-up team got us?"
"From what I read from their reports...no."
"And you would think that we would, especially me. I was right beside Godzilla." Jesse paused, glancing at everyone. "We have a more pressing matter now, though."
"Ah, yes. The new kaiju." the general nodded. "What do you know about it from your observations?"
"Not a lot. The only thing I know is that, like Godzilla, it had a long-range attack, but I don't know what exactly it is. It seemed to have followed the destroyers to the island thanks to someone." she gave John a look. "And thus, it and Godzilla fought."
"Two kaiju are in this world and we can't go after both." Kanto stated. "We need to focus our efforts on one for now, sirs."
"This is the most unideal situation we could ever been in." McGee sighed.
"Gentlemen, if I may," spoke Jesse again. "We should focus our efforts the unknown creature since it's at large. Godzilla is currently back on the island- it didn't pursue this creature and simply went back to his herd."

"You're not actually considering letting Godzilla and those things live, are you?" asked John when he noted the silence.
"As of right now," began the president. "We need to focus on the creature, as Ms. Hudson suggested."
"It'll be dubbed Titan-1." stated Ogata.
"This meeting is now over. Until next time." The secretary nodded before one by one, the monitors went black. John stared, growling and clenching his fists.
"Mr. Krill." Ogata turned towards to the man, hands behind his back. "I understand that you went against Naraka's orders?"
"I had to do something! I couldn't-"
"You do realize that there's punishment, even more so because you put those two in danger and cost military lives."
John gaped at the director as two K-Force officers walked up behind him and grabbed him by his arms. The touch jolted him out of his gaping and started to struggle against the two. They had a firm grip on him though and started to drag him out of the room and started down the hall. The three heard him yelling, which was growing more and more distancing before they couldn't hear him anymore.
Ogata waited for a moment before turning to towards Kanto and Jesse. "Anything else you have to report that you didn't want to tell the others?"
Jesse blinked, staring at the old man. He chuckled at her.
"Come now, everyone wants to hold some information from the higher ups."
"Uh...well..." Jesse scratched the back of her head, swallowing. "Godzilla seemed to hold some telepathic ability."
Ogata hummed. "I can see why you withheld this. That seemed a little far fetched for most."
"That's not even all of it." Kanto spoke up. Jesse gave him a look before letting out a small sigh. She wanted to leave the little telepathic interactions bit out, but it seemed like Kanto had other ideas.
"The two times he paid us any mind, something happened to me." Jesse began, knowing that Kanto wouldn't let her leave until she told the other man. "I felt something probing my mind. The first time this happened, I saw some images I couldn't make out."

"And you believe that it was Godzilla?" asked Ogata.
"Like I said, it happened both times while he was near us and paying us any mind."
"I see...well, I'll keep it to myself, then."
"Thank you." smiled Jesse.
"You are both dismissed."
Kanto bowed before looking at Jesse. "Let's go grab something to eat."
Jesses only nodded and the two left with Ogata looking after them.
The ramen shop was booming currently. Seats were full, both inside and out with all kinds of people that was stopping by. Kanto and Jesse sat in a booth in the corner with two bowls of ramen sitting in front of them on the table.
"Kanto?" Jesse glanced after finishing a bite of her ramen.
"Yes?"
"What got you into K-Force?"
He paused for a moment before setting his chopsticks down. "My father's father fought against the first Godzilla and he was there when it died. After K-Force was formed, my father joined, and I simply followed in his footsteps. I became general when I was twenty- I'm twenty-two now. What about your family."
"I... let's just say that they left a long time ago." she mumbled before she slowly finished eating.
"Forgive me, I didn't mean to bring up any painful memories or upset you."
She shook her head. "No, it's fine. I just don't like to talk about it. I should be getting back to my hotel room now. I have some work to do. Thanks for the food."
She stood up, bowed politely and went on her way, Kanto staring after her.
Jesse trudged into her hotel room, shutting the door behind her before plopping onto the bed, closing her eyes. She shouldn't be so exhausted, but with everything in the meeting, walking to the hotel and for whatever other reason, she was, and she just wanted to sleep. She rubbed her face, feeling her stress levels fluctuate.
She laid on the bed for a few minutes in silence before feeling something brush up against her mind, making her eyes snap open before she froze.
She wasn't in her hotel room, she was surrounded by a black, endless void. She tried to make sense of everything, but she couldn't. She didn't understand anything.
A sudden roar sounded around her and then there was blue everywhere and a light blinded her, causing her to shield them until they adjusted before looking again.
She was standing on a cliff, overlooking the ocean. She observed the cloudless sky and the calm ocean. Her observing was interrupted when a low growl sounded from in front of her, below the cliff.
A head slowly lifted until the face was leveled with her, two red eyes regarded her before warm air struck her causing her to squint slightly. This...could this be how powerful his telepathy is?
"What's going on?" Jesse questioned. "Where am I?"
Godzilla just purred in reply, leaning his head closer to her. Jesse tensed, not knowing what to do or what Godzilla was going to do.
Godzilla continued to purr before carefully bumping his chin against her. As scales touched her body, something pushed into her mind and it was like a film unfolding in front of her.
Flashes of images flashed before her eyes. A jungle, two creatures like on the island was cuddling up against one another. Another flash was of the two facing off against a third, behind the two was a nest with a clutch of three eggs. A flash of a fight between the two defending parents and the intruder. The last two flashes were of the intruder lying dead as well as the smaller parent while the larger was falling beside its mate. Then, there was a bright flash and the forest became black.
Godzilla stood up from where the larger parent was and he craned his head, roaring in anguish before his dorsal plates flashed an orange-red and unleashed his atomic breath on the charred remains of his mate and nest.
Jesse jolted with a gasp, sweat pouring down her face.
"Oh god..." she wiped some of the sweat off and glanced at the clock which read nine in the evening.
Godzilla had just showed her how became to be and it was more tragic that she could ever thought up.
Godzilla was more than she ever thought.

New kingdoms expand as the old decay. This is a story of those who lived in the times of change. Dear Reader, Thank you for stopping by! This is my first attempt at writing something of more substantial length and would be incredibly grateful to receive feedback and advice. The plan is to post at least a chapter a week and more if I find time. Also, in order to not disappoint any expectations; the story plays in a fictional world reminiscent of the real world 17th to 19th century with some supernatural elements, but no obvious magic or game-like system.

The Villain's Double Life
“The Villain’s Double Life as the Hero’s Mentor," “Demon Nobles Want to Live Too: A Hero-Raising Simulator for the Transmigrated Villain," “Just Because I’m a Villain Doesn’t Mean I Want the World to End!” Cyrus Calvide was the second son of an aristocratic lord; haughty, vain and power-hungry. One day, when his ancestral inheritance manifested, he discovered he was able to steal other’s powers and abilities using demonic magic. Taking this as a sign that he was destined to rule over others and become the new king of this land, he poisoned his father, killed his elder brother, and embarked on the path to greatness, taking advantage of a demonic invasion to consolidate power and harvest the abilities of others in a cruel and bloody fashion. Until he was summarily defeated by the Hero as a mid-game boss battle and executed for his crimes, of course. When a dedicated fan of the RPG “Next to Eden” awakened in the body of the cruelest future Count, four years before the beginning of the game, he pledged to live humbly. He would let his brother lead and support the Hero from the shadows to ensure the demon invasion would be defeated and he could enjoy life in peace. Rather, he would have, if he hadn’t gotten the Hero’s mentor killed in a freak monster attack before the Hero’s training could even begin. How was he supposed to live a life of peace and luxury if the Hero couldn’t stop the end of the world!? Donning a mask, Cyrus took up mentoring the Hero himself; how hard could it possibly be? . . . Four years later, the kind jack-of-all-trades hero Leon had become a twisted powerhouse: alienating his party members, clearing enemy encounters in a single magical blast, and coldly ignoring the affections of the girl whose love would have allowed him to clear the final boss. He seemed to have plastered himself to his Master’s side, instead. Cyrus bit back his despair while the hero reached out to grasp his hand. “Please stop ignoring the saint, Leon; you can't beat the Demon King by grinding stats! You need the power of love, remember?” “Don’t worry, Master,” Leon smiled as he traced the lines of Cyrus’s palm gently, almost reverently. “I have all the love I need.” VDL is two parts plot and worldbuilding, one part slow-build gay romance, starring a man far too proud to admit he's in over his head and the hero who loves him. Should be updating weekly.
