The King, the Huntsman and the Princess

Twilight looked up to see a sight that nopony had ever seen before. It had a hammer-like head with three, long, spiked tails and emitted a bioluminescent light green hue. The monster's arms were fused, ending in three-digit claws. The monster let out an ear-splitting roar, shattering windows, bending trees and cracking rocks in every direction.  It's sheer size rivaled that of a record Ursa Major, bigger even.

Twilight and Rainbow watched in horror as the beast was heading in the direction of Ponyville. The two friends shuddered as the monster thundered across the landscape.

"What is that thing!?!" Rainbow asked her friend, hoping for an answer.

"I don't know Rainbow. I need to warn Celestia about this!" Twilight ran back into the library and quickly wrote a note to her mentor demanding that she get Ponyville immediately, hoping that she and her friends weren't flattened corpses by the time she got there.

...meanwhile...

Shaun and Nate were getting a by-the-book tutorial by the instructor who was teaching them through headsets in their helmets.

"So, which Kaiju's ass are we gonna kick today? Virtually of course." Shaun said mashing one fist into his palm.

"You will be facing the Kaiju known as..." The instructor looked on his list to see Harper and Lackeys' names and next to their names was the the Kaiju they'd be fighting, virtually.

"Which one is it, pal?" Nate quipped impatiently.

"...Leatherback! Hahaha... have fun you two!" The line cut off as the simulation started.

The simulation initialized in the city of Shanghai with lots and lots of buildings. Perfect cover for you to launch a sneak attack on a Kaiju or the other way around. To make the simulation even more difficult, it was nighttime, and raining, so your visibility is slim to none.

"Great, we're facing off against a oversized gorilla with an attitude. Yay!" Shaun said emphatically, flailing his arms for second before getting to his senses.

"Focus Shaun! This Kaiju's a real nasty motherfucker from what I've heard from other pilots. So be careful." Nate said with a serious tone.

"Come on, we've dropped 30 times and killed 30 Kaiju's. This guy's mincemeat for us!" Shaun and Nate stretched out their arms in preparation for the upcoming battle.

Their simulated Jaeger was modeled after Striker Eureka, which was not their usual style but they could work it out. The Jaeger walked forth into the bay surrounding the city. A low rumbling sound made it's way into the pilots ears. They turned the Jaeger's massive head a might to late as the giant exploded out of the water and tackled the lumbering fighter into the water, hammering away. The two regained their composure and elbowed the oversized gorilla in the stomach again and again, forcing the behemoth to back off. The pilots stood on their feet and got into a fighting stance. Leatherback charged with fury, forcing the pilots to dodge it's attack and think think of a plan to kill the beast. The duo then piggyback-style grabbed Leatherback's special gland that triggers it's signature EMP blast, pulling violently until it finally gave and came off the back of the monster, throwing it into the ocean. Shrilling in pain, Leatherback turned it's head and grabbed the Jaeger, pulling it into a bear hug, spun around and threw the Jaeger like a ragdoll into the Shanghai docks.

"WHEEEEEEEEEE!" Shaun yells with glee.

"OH SHIIIIIIIIIT!" Nate hollers as the Jaeger twists and turns until landing on the docks with a sharp CLANG skidding for some seconds then stops.

"Come on! Let's show King Kong here how to fight!"

Ugh, seriously?

"Oh, come on! That's gold right there! And even YOU have to admit the guy looks like King Kong on steroids." Nate exclaims to the narrator

"Just uglier!"

(sighs) Fine, just kill the damn thing would ya?

"Sure."

"MAKE IT SO, NUMBER ONE!"

Leatherback slowly makes it's way to the shipyards, crushing anything that happens to be in it's way. Suddenly it charges at the duo, responding with charging as well.

"Activating jets!" Nate pushes a button, jumping high into the air, with the jets sustaining lift then finally coming back down to Earth, landing their metal fist into the Kaijus skull with a sharp THUMP. Attempting to regain it's composure, Leatherback staggers back a bit. Wasting no time, the two give Leatherback a beating of its own, mercilessly giving it various jabs and hooks to the head and upper torso, backing it up against a building.

"YEAH, GOING MIKE TYSON ON YO SORRY, MONKEY ASS!"

Are you fucking kidding me? You can't be serious, can you? Leatherback is based off a GORILLA! A GORILLA! Get your facts right.

"What, you a Muhammad Ali fan or something?"

"Man you are such a nitpicker, come on!"

"Give him a break, this is his story by the way, you know that right?"

(groans) I know, I know.

"May we continue, Sir Nitpick?"

Don't push it with me, pal.

"Shaun, give it a rest. You can break the fourth wall later, 'kay?"

"Okay then."

Oh God, please kill me now!

"Ahem!"

Oh right, onward!

Leatherback somehow regains composure and roars into the pilots face, nearly blowing their eardrums.

"SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH!" Shaun yells as he and his co-pilot punch the Kaiju right on the button.

"Say it, don't spray it, Bundy!"

Oh, for crying out loud!

Again, the Kaiju bellows as saliva sprays onto the Jaegers' metal hull.

"SHUT THE FUCK UP, YOU CUNT!" Again, Shaun and Nate uppercut it in the face, sending it tumbling backwards, but not before the Kaiju gives the two a slobberknocker to the face, making the duo stumble back a bit. The Kaiju now lied motionless at their feet.

"I think we're done here." Nate states flatly as a bolt of lightning crashes above them as the two turn around and walk away.

"What do think you're doing!?! That thing isn't dead yet! Kill it!" The instructor screams into the headset of the two pilots.

"What? I was sure that last hit got him!" Shaun complains.

"Well, what are we waiting for? LET'S FINISH HIM!"

The two turn around, expecting the Kaiju to be lying flat on it's back, right where they wanted it, only to see a patch of broken road and a set of footprints leading away from the scene.

"What the- hey, where'd he go!?" Shaun questioned his co-pilot.

"I told you, man. This guy is dangerous! Keep your eyes peeled!"

"You better not make this like 'the monster comes out of a frickin building' and totally mauls us! This is NOT the '98 version of Godzilla!" Shaun hollers at the narrator.

Leave the storytelling to me, okay?

"Fine, but I swear, if you do that, I will NOT be happy!"

Okay, then.

The two walked down a city block following footprints, looking for a giant, oversized, scaly gorilla. they follow the trail until it stops next to two adjacent buildings.

"Oh great, this chumps got invisibility powers now!?!"

"Look around, the guy's gotta be here somewhere!"

They look around for only a short time, and find what they were looking for, but were in a bad position to do anything about it. Leatherback was now on top of a skyscraper, looking down on the duo. Leatherback jumps, hoping it would land on the Jaeger, squashing it under it's weight. Luckily the two see him in time and just as the monster is about to reach the duo, they grab it in midair, use the momentum from the fall against it and slam it to the ground.

"Did you see that!?! He was trying to do a cross-body on us. FAIL!" Shaun yells.

Groaning in pain, the Kaiju looks to see the Jaeger standing tall over itself.

"This time we're gonna make that you STAY dead!" Nate pushes a button activating two swords out of each arm.

"Any last words, beastie?" Shaun asks not talking to anyone in particular, putting the two, massive blades at Leatherback's throat.

Silence.

In one swift stroke, Leatherback's head comes clean off and rolls away.

"FATALITY!" Shaun yells as the simulation deactivates.

"31st drop, 31st kill." Nate says.

The instructor says "Impressive, very impressive."

Suddenly a message comes onto the P.A.

"MESSAGE FROM COMMANDER PENTECOST, PRIORITY ALPHA! PILOTS SHAUN HARPER AND NATHANIEL LACKEY REPORT THE THE HANGAR BAY IMMEDIATELY. YOU HAVE BEEN REASSIGNED!"

"We haven't even gotten past training!"

"Anyways, what does Pentecost want?"

"You've been reassigned, that's all you should know by now. Get to the hangar bay now before I boot both of you there, NOW!"

A gruff voice boomed into their headsets.

"Well... that was easy." Shaun quips.

Until then, seeya next time folks!
