Monster of Justice

Princess Celestia carved a wet, slushy trail through the northeastern landscape of Equestria as she raced to stop a giant walrus from destroying Stalliongrad. She didn't even take a moment to let her mind process the idea. She just leaped out the nearest window and flew north. She had to help and defend her kingdom in a trying time while at the same time caring for the incapacitated Princess Twilight Sparkle. Time was not something she could waste.

She looked up to see smoke rising over the horizon. Not stopping for a moment, she turned upward, taking to the skies with the intention of getting a better view of the disaster. She saw Stalliongrad in smolders. Sirens blared. Terrified ponies ran screaming through the streets. Paving a trail of destruction through the city was a giant brown blob of blubber with tusks. The walrus was large, but it only stood at around half of what the Shobijin described to be Godzilla's height. Not far from the city was a glacier with a giant hole in it. Princess Celestia didn't need to guess where the beast had come from and where she was going to put it.

Princess Celestia took off at top speed, immediately shattering the sound barrier and likely accidentally shifting the weather. Celestia didn't feel the bitter cold as she shot down toward her opponent because there was no cold. In that split second, as Princess Celestia rocketed toward the giant walrus that the fairies referred to as "Maguma", she did so while gather all the power from the sun that she could without causing too much damage. In that split second, nopony was cold. In that split second, there were two suns in the sky.

The princess came down on the walrus' face with a force more powerful that a hundred locomotives. Maguma responded by falling back and straight out of Stalliongrad, landing on its back on the glacier that it was once trapped in. Celestia took a few seconds to catch her breath, exhausted from the last half-second. She would have to be careful not to exhaust herself too much or she would end up just like Princess Twilight; tired and emaciated.

Celestia took off after Maguma, this time with considerably less speed and force behind her. Maguma, who had already gotten black on its flippers, displayed and unexpected feat of agility and strength by spinning itself a full 360 degrees around with only its front fins, letting its tail smack right into the princess, who tumbled and skipped over the ice for a few seconds before coming to a stop. She immediately corrected her position.

If Princess Celestia was going to get this done quickly, she wasn't going to waste time with the walrus swatting each other back and forth. If she was going to end this sack of blubber's reign of terror quickly, she'd have to tap into her inner Rainbow Dash. Thoughts of extreme sports and an unnatural fear of baked goods made their way into the solar princess' mind. She wondered how she would be able to balance protecting Equestria, rehabilitating Princess Twilight, and finishing her novel about an awesome young mare who becomes the captain of the Wonderbolts. She then noticed the giant walrus that was about to land a body slam on her.

Celestia dashed out of the way of the oncoming walrus, letting Maguma crash onto the ice. Spotting an opening, she leapened into the air and above the monster. Celestia swooped down and grabbed the creature by the folds of its neck fat, making a mental note to take a bath after this was over. Using her Alicorn strength, she lifted Maguma into the air and swooped downward, slamming the walrus onto the ice.

She darted to the tail-end of the monster and latched her front legs onto its tail fin. Her back hooves planted firmly on the ice, she pulled upward, lifting Maguma into the air and slamming him back onto the ice on its back. She repeated the process, ending with the monster on its belly once again. She dashed back to its head and dove onto its head. Wham! A solid hit, but not enough to get the results she wanted. She repeated the maneuver, this time at a greater speed and from a greater distance. Wham! Almost. She repeated a second time, upping the ante even further. WHAM!

Its tusks had been jammed into the ice of the glacier they were fighting on, Maguma was once again a prisoner to the ice. However, it was clear to Princess Celestia that it would not stay that way for nearly as long as it had before. Maguma struggled viciously to escape its chilly braces. She needed to knock the creature out, but she wasn't physically strong enough to do so. Mentally and magically, she was more than strong enough to end the fight. However, she didn't want to kill the monster. She wanted to rehabilitate it and train it to guard Equestria. That and because having a giant walrus for a pet would be really cool.

Celestia looked south and took notice of a cloud just large enough to create the weather she needed several miles away. Maguma continued to strain for freedom. She took to the skies, speeding south at speeds just short of breaking the sound barrier. After reaching the cloud, she flew to its southern side and pushed it north.

The moment Celestia returned to the scene, Maguma pulled with all its walrus might and undid its inprisonment, reeling back from its own strength and letting out a great roar. Celestia flew upwards and dropped onto the giant cloud. On impact, a large bolt of lightning shot out of the cloud and jutted towards its only target in a flat white landscape. Maguma slid back and wailed in pair. Smoke rose up from the mark on its back that had been burned by the bolt. The attack was effective, but not enough to knock it out. Celestia leaped upward again and came down on the cloud at top speed, not letting up when she hit the cloud. A stream of lightning exploded from the cloud and straight into the monster, which let out another wail. After a few seconds, Celestia let up and Maguma fell down. The battle was over.

Princess Celestia flew back down onto the ice and inspected the monster. She placed a hoof on the right side of its neck. Its skin quaked in a slow rhythm. It was still alive. She let out a sigh of relief, her worries that she had killed or seriously harmed it being alleviated. She raised the walrus into the air and guided the floating mass of fat to the hole in the glacier that it had come out of. She gently returned Maguma to its old prison and ripped a chunk of the glacier out to plug up the hole with. She gritted her teeth and closed her eyes as she forced the bit of glacier that held Maguma to break off from the rest of the body of ice. The sound the ice made as it separated could have easily been mistaken for the sound of thousands of cannons firing simultaneously. In the end, however, she had Maguma. Now she just needed to carry it all the way back to Canterlot.

"Man, these are weird," Spike said as he skimmed through one of the books Princess Celestia had left on the nightstand by Twilight's bed. The book detailed the adventures of Twilight and her friends as they didn't happen. For whatever reason, writers across and beyond Equestria were completely obsessed with them and wrote thousands of fictional stories about them. The one Spike held in his claws detailed Pinkie Pie's descent into madness and her brutal murder of Rainbow Dash. Twilight urged him not to read it, but he did anyway. It was too over-the-top to be scarring.

"I know..." Twilight groaned from beneath her lavender-colored covers. Neither of them were sure as to how they kept getting published behind their backs. "Still... They're pretty cool..." she exhaled.

"Princess Twilight!" Princess Luna exclaimed as she burst into the room, followed by the fairies. "It's good to see you're recovering quickly!"

"Luna..." Twilight turned her eyes to her visitor and smiled. "It's good to see you too..."

"We have been maintaining telepathic contact with Princess Celestia since she left," the Shobijin said. "She has informed us that she will be out for a few more hours."

"I'm here to watch over you in my sister's absence," Luna added. "I brought board games!" A stack of boxes floated into the room behind her. "How do you feel about Saviors of Gryphus?" Spike left Twilight's side and took to setting up the previously mentioned board game.

"Princess Luna..." Twilight inhaled. "When I was asleep, I... had a strange nightmare... Why..."

"Why wasn't I there?" Princess Luna finished Twilight's thought. "I tried to get through to you. That was one of the first things any of us did after my sister brought you here. For some reason, I couldn't get into your dream. Something or someone was blocking me."

"But who's powerful enough..?"

"We believe it may be one of Godzilla's or Mothra's enemies," the Shobijin said.

The room suddenly began to shake violently. Pictures fell from the walls and furniture displaced itself. From outside, the sounds of terrified screaming filled the air. Canterlot didn't sit near any fault lines. The bed Twilight sat in had moved to the window, giving Twilight a view of the city beneath the castle. Fires broke out. Small buildings crumbled. The mountain the city sat on looked seemed to be falling apart.

With only the tremors as a warning, the side of the mountain exploded. Boulders and dirt pummeled the streets below, causing even greater damage to property and even more harm to innocent lives. However, Twilight didn't focus on that for long. Spinning out of the mountain along with all the debris was a colossal monster, nearly as large as Godzilla. Its form was indistinguishable for the first few moments after its breaching. It spun through the air like a drill much faster than anything its size should be capable of. Its shell opened up revealing insect-like wings which produced an unbearably loud humming noise. Everypony gritted their teeth and covered their ears with the exception of Twilight, who, unable to do those things, continued to observe. The monster corrected itself in midair and hovered above the center of town. The bipedal monster appeared physically similar to a rhinoceros beetle, with a large horn sprouting upwards from its decidedly insect-like face. Where hands or claws should have been, it had drills.

The monster folded its wings and dropped into the city, making a three-point landing. The castle shook once again as it made impact. The monster rose to its full height and let out an eardrum-shattering roar.

"What is that?" Twilight tried to shout.

"Megalon!" the Shobijin cried at the sight of the creature.

Seemingly on cue, Megalon's compound eyes lit up bright blue and focused on the castle. If Twilight didn't know any better, she'd have thought that Megalon was looking directly at her. The monster lift up one colossal foot and brought it down several hundred meters ahead of where it had been before, right on top of a local bakery. The other followed suit. Two steps later, it was at the castle.

Megalon raised its drill claws. Both began spinning. Twilight was able to get a better view of the monster in front of her. The light of the setting sun gleamed off of its metallic exoskeleton and into her eyes. Its own eyes appeared to be protected by a glassy covering. However, it moved too fluidly to be entirely mechanical. Somewhere beneath the electronics and metals was a living creature.

Megalon derailed Twilight's train of thought by jamming its drill claws into the castle. The entire building seemed to sway as the monster shifted its body to the left and right. It was trying to knock the castle down and doing a good job of it.

Princess Luna threw the covers off of Twilight and threw her onto her back. If Twilight could have gritter her teeth in pain, she would have. Spike jumped onto Luna's back behind Twilight. Luna jumped out of the nearby window and flew to the streets below, which were in no better condition.

"What do we do?!" Spike asked as he gazed up at Megalon.

"We can't... fight him by ourselves..."

The bottom of the sea is a very tranquil place, once you get past the extreme pressure. At least, that's what Godzilla thought. He completed half of his plan. His son was safe by his side and his attackers were scared out of their mind. They were lucky. Had they been capable of fighting back, Godzilla would have likely reduced them to a pile of ashes. Fortunately for them and the city they inhabited, they were harmless to him.

Godzilla looked at his left arm. Just as he had expected, it was healed. No bone showing, no blood, not even a scar. That cyclops may have been strong, but this proved that Godzilla was stronger. He still needed to find that cyclops and its partner, but he very rarely actively searched for any threats. Godzilla knew that if his presence was needed anywhere, he would know it and would show up just in the nick of time.

Godzilla's head shot up and his body tightened up. He knew it. He was needed somewhere, and somewhere he would go. He lifted himself off of the ocean floor with his tail and began swimming to the surface. A curious roar sounded behind him. He turned to see his son readily following him. Godzilla's son had been in enough danger. He shot his son a look that would have likely killed any lesser monsters on the spot. Godzilla's heir may have been rambunctious, but he was no lesser monster. The young monster stayed back and returned to the ocean floor. Content with his parenting skills, Godzilla turned around and swam to the surface.
