Chapter 01 - Into the Wormhole
Tokyo, 1996. Intense heat and surging nuclear power surrounded the demonic Kaiju Destroyah. He hadn't predicted his opponent to be this powerful but the meltdown had caused his heart, a nuclear reactor in essence, to unleash all of its power, every drop of energy it had obtained! The powers of Rodan, SpaceGodzilla and Godzilla all rolled into one entity, one of a fierce temper and unimaginable rage! Burning Godzilla was unstoppable in every way, there was nothing Destroyah could do to get the edge on him! Destroyah had slain his son and it was going to pay dearly! Godzilla roared out as his body steamed and surged with power, his spines bursting with blazing nuclear energy as a crimson spiral ray erupted from his snarling jaws. The deadly beam clipped Destroyah's head, taking a portion of its crest as it zoomed by. Godzilla then lowered his head, descending the beam onto Destroyah's body, taking out chunks of it as the crimson beam moved across its torso. Destroyah spurted green blood from its jaws, trying to fight the pain. It couldn't survive much more of this...
Destroyah knew he was now totally outclassed by the raging father and King of Monsters. There was no other choice but to retreat. Spreading out its massive demonic wings, now ripped and tattered from the battle, it took to the skies. Gaining height quickly from its vertically assent, Destroyah attempted escape but what it lacked to notice was that Godzilla was not the only presence plotting against it. With Godzilla's meltdown imminent, the JSDF dispatched the Super X III and several other freezer weapon-equipped vehicles to prevent a cataclysmic disaster.
"Destroyah is taking to the skies! All units fire!" General Aso ordered from the safety of G Force as he noticed the beast's sudden retreat on the mammoth screen.
"All units firing!" The soldiers said as they took aim at the fleeing Kaiju's wings with the intent to bring him down. One shot after another, masers and beams flew at the Kaiju, freezing his wings and sending him plummeting back down to Earth with a mighty crash.
"Love? Thats a touching yet ridiculous sentiment!"
Chrysalis just made her biggest mistake ever: she turned her back on Cadance and Shining Armor. Fueling each other with their love, Shining unleashed a massive blast of energy, clearing Canterlot of the changeling menace. The energy blast, shot in the same instance of time as Godzilla's crimson spiral ray, created an inter-dimensional wormhole between the two universes, a rift between worlds.
Destroyah fell through the air and the ground quickly rushed up to greet it. The demonic Kaiju crashed down with a massive bang right in front of Godzilla who raged and waited for his foe to rise. Destroyah lifted itself from the rubble slowly, trying to regain its footing. The extremes of temperature were too much for even its armor-encrusted body to bear, it couldn't take much more. It was the destroyer of all life and yet it was brought to its knees by a father mourning the loss of his son and taking his rage out on his killer. A slight flash of light caught Destroyah's attention from the corner of its left eye. The ripples in space and time was minuscule to the beast, much too small for its full form to pass through but it knew with Godzilla nearing meltdown, it wasn't going to survive much longer. In an attempt to save its life, Destroyah detached a man-sized Aggregate form of himself from the major unit and send it through the portal which closed soon after.
As it was enveloped into the unknown void, Destroyah rushed the Monster King to distract him from the anomaly it had stumbled upon. Godzilla, surging with power from the meltdown, easily overpowered his foe, crashing his clawed fists into his head and chest. Blood and armor flew as Godzilla tore at his foe. Destroyah screamed out in pain as green blood burst from its gaping wounds. Destroyah, pummeled, was unable to counter in its beaten state. Godzilla raised one of his massive feet into the air and smashed it straight into the kneeling Destroyah, sending it flying back into the airport's major docking station. Destroyah had no fight left in it but it knew that to survive it had to press on. Shocked and in pain Destroyah raised itself, only to be greeted by a barrage of blazing beams from the raging Godzilla. The incinerating blasts reaped clean through its body, sending flesh, hide and blood flying. The Super X III and the rest of the freezer-equipped maser tanks soon joined in, blasting the steaming Kaiju with subzero shots that quickly froze it to the core. The extremes of temperature were far too much for even the mighty Destroyah to bear, he could FEEL the little micro crablets that made up his body writhing away in excruciating pain. Destroyah's body fell apart and disintegrated, ending its life; Junior had been avenged.
With his foe now dead before him and his son's corps looming in the distance, a dying Godzilla had no more reason to live. He accepted fate as his body temperature continued to rise. 1197, 1198, 1199, meltdown! Godzilla roared out in pain to anyone who could hear his sad voice as nuclear energy burst from his raging body; his heart had failed and his body was melting down! His skin was stripped from the flesh as his body withered, his muscle and bone soon shattered and liquefied as the King of Monsters drew his last breath. Godzilla was dead...
AppleJack knew it was rude but she couldn't help but to STARE at the ... pony lying before her. It looked as though an alien to her, she had never seen anything like it. She had to wonder if it was an alicorn. But the horn wasn't the usual spiral shape but rather clean cut, similar to a crystal from hell. And it had two sets of wings, two large draconic flight wings that appears as if they were sent from the devil himself and and two vestigial ones beneath, most likely used for steering. The... 'hooves' where no less weird, simply large white claws of a hideous nature. There where three fang-like tusks coming out of its cheeks, similar to small pincers. It had a funny, yet demonic-looking, crest that fanned out from both sides of it's small, thorny head. And rather than having tails hairs to match its pure white mane, it had a draconic tail, covered in spines, ending in a crescent like pincer of deadly appearance. It looked like it was created to rip ponies to shreds. AppleJack slowly poked it. The monster stirred and its left eye of pure gold snapped open.
Destroyah opened its eyes and looked at itself. It was a MAJOR difference than as to what it was expecting, it was no longer a menacing crustacean from Hades. The Aggregate form must have been mutated in the wormhole, changed by forces still unknown to the puzzled Kaiju.
"Yall ok partner?"
Destroyah snapped its head towards the sound of something speaking. An intelligent life form and something for it to devour, the bloodthirsty demon was eager to tear something apart. But Destroyah was confused when its eyes shifted to the orange, hooves animal.
"Ah said. Are. Yall. ok?"
Destroyah tilted its head in confusion. Why wasn't this creature running in utter terror?
"Ah'll take that as an ok. Err ... wha are ya?"
Destroyah was now severely confused, opting to just staring at the strange creature before him.
"... Ah'll assume you're a pony at the moment. Uh .... are ya a colt or mare? Ah cant tell really."
Now Destroyah was severely caught by surprise. It stood and lifted a hind leg to see if any sexual organs were present. As usual, there were none. Destroyah had no gender, instead it would combine with others of the same species to expand in size. Destroyah raised a clawed hoof to its mouth and cleared its throat. It had decided to communicate first and devour later, strategically planning out its future attack.
"We .. are Destroyah ...... We .... breed .... asexually .. We can .. however be both .. male and .. female .. but choose ... a more .. masculine approach."
It was clear that the creature was having a hard time formulating larger words as it usually grunted and roared at its opponents. But even they where forms of communicating with its enemies, just on a lower level.
"Tha is jus plain weird partner. Mah name is AppleJack here on sweet apple acres! Who are you?"
Destroyah flared its demonic wings, doubling its size appearance, and snarled loudly. He reared on its hind legs as blazing red micro-oxygen energy crackled on its deadly horn and purple flames of the nuclear substance leaked from its gaping jaws.
"We are Destroyah! Consumer of life!"
AppleJack grabbed one of Destroyah's claws and shook vigorously. Destroyah was rattled to the core. It was obvious she wasn't intimidated despite Destroyah's remarkable display of sheer power.
"Yer gonna love it in Ponyville! Ah don't care whit ya are but ah can tell we can be friends!"
Destroyah was dumbfounded to say the least, to think this small 'pony' as she called it showed absolutely no fear of it was just unheard of.
"Ya see we don't judge by looks .. well not since Zecora and ah think mah friends will like ya! ... except maybe flutter."
Wait? Friends? Destroyah inwardly grinned as it knew this naïve fool would lead it straight to more sustenance! Destroyah decided to play the innocent pony for the moment and nodded. AppleJack led the killer to a small picnic table and sat it down. AppleJack seated herself.
"Now we wait fer em."
Destroyah rolled his eyes for it was not in the mood for waiting. Luckily it wouldn't be too long of a wait and the demonic Kaiju would not lose patience. Destroyah was confident in that.
"How many .. friends?"
"Hmm. Six including me!"
Destroyah's response was simply a toothy grin. AppleJack shrugged it off and set the table to Rarity's standards, she didn't want to hear nagging from that pony. As she set the table, distracted by her work, five other ponies appeared in the distance moving towards them through the acres. AppleJack was oblivious to her approaching friends but Destroyah could sense their presence,their beating hearts fluttering towards him and his gaping jaws. Nasty plots formed in its head as its prey approached, totally unaware of the danger ahead.

Chapter 02 - A Bizarre, Techno-colored World
Destroyah watched as the four ponies drew closer and closer to its location, it could just taste their soft flesh as it salivated but wait, weren't there supposed to be five ponies? Where was the fifth, Destroyah wondered.
"HI!!!" Pinkie Pie said as she snuck up on the unsuspecting kaiju.
Destroyah lept straight into the air, shaking the table and startling AppleJack with the force of its takeoff. He scanned the area for any signs of danger but their were none. Then a flash caught its heartless eye as it raised its head to the sky. A cyan colored pegasus with a rainbow mane shot through the sky and crashed into it, sending it straight back down to Earth with a heavy crash right onto on of AppleJack's apple pie, smashing part of the table with it. Pinkie Pie giggled at her prank.
"Oh dear are you alri- ... what IS this ghastly thing?"
"Rarity!"
"I cant help but wonder Twilight. I mean look at that horrid red color! Oh and the ghastly claws! AppleJack why is this thing here!?"
"He kinda showed up outta no where. He said his name was De- Des- Da-"
"Destroyah." The creature said as it rose from the ruins of the apple pie, using its tail to wipe the crumbs off of its face. As it lowered it's tail, it's eyes narrowed towards Rainbow Dash as a hideous snarl rose from its deadly jaws, it eagerly wanted to tear them all limb-from-limb, especially the know-it-all that had the audacity to take him from the sky. It scanned over the ponies, sizing them all up with nefarious intents in mind. It's eyes came to Rarity and it lowered its head, bringing it nose to nose with the beautiful pony.
"What are you? Thing!"
Destroyah smirked as the insult hit home. It was getting the hang of this communications thing.
"Thing!? I am Rarity! Most beautiful pony in all of Ponyville!"
Destroyah ignored her narcissistic comment, infuriating the pale pony even more. Destroyah continued to move its head until its eyes landed on Fluttershy. Images of a crisp corps, similar to that of a roasting turkey over an open fire, flashed through its mind as it began to salivate further. Fluttershy began to panic as the saliva began to drip from his toothy grin and his eyes narrowed in a carnivorous fashion, displaying his voracious nature! It was so engrossed in its imagination that it didn't notice as Pinkie Pie snuck up on it again.
"HI!!!"
Destroyah leaped back, a bolt of micro-oxygen shooting out of his mouth, flambeing the other apple pie. Rainbow Dash chuckled, trying to keep it to herself with little success.
"I think I'm beginning to see a pattern here. You got pranked by Pinkie twice! So gullible!"
Destroyah eyes narrowed as it snarled loudly at the chuckling ponies. All the ponies began to stare at the snarling kaiju as it's horn began to blaze with crimson micro-oxygen energy.
"Wow, heh! take it easy, it was just a joke!" Pinkie Pie tried to explain.
"You know nothing of the forces you are dealing with! I am Destroyah, I am death!"
Upon hearing this, the ponies were reduced to staring, confused at exactly what he meant by 'I am death.' Destroyah calmed itself, understanding that it needed to sit back and observe its prey for some more time before striking.
"Ya'll know this is just a joke, right? Desy can be quit the comedian!" AppleJack said, trying to reassure her fearful friends.
"Any hoo lets eat... minus the dessert now!"
The ponies sat themselves first, only then did the demon kaiju drag itself over to the head of the small table across from Twilight and between Pinkie and Rainbow. Even though its size and appearance had changed dramatically, it was still quit heavy for a pony, rocking the table as it sat down on the far left side. As it looked around, Destroyah noticed the cruel irony in the seating arrangement. It needed to be cautious around the pranksters though, they would be the first to go. Oh how he would enjoy tearing them limb-from-limb, smearing their warm, salty blood across its armored face and torso! The pink one defied all laws of physics and the cyan one was her bloody ally. Destroyah just sat there, disgusted by what the others were eating.
"Aren't ya'll gonna eat?"
"We refuse to eat this vegetation!"
"What!? Whay!?"
"We require... flesh!"
Rarity hid under the table at that point.
"Eek! Don't eat me! I'm to fabulous!!!"
Destroyah rolled his eyes. It wanted to say something but it knew that it would be better to keep its thoughts concealed... for now! Surprisingly enough however roasted turkey ... err the yellow pegasus fluttered over to him and put a white brick of an unknown substance before it. Destroyah sniffed it tentatively, wondering just what the hell it was. The smell was repugnant but it couldn't be worse than that dreaded foliage they were munching on!
"Its a special tofu meat substitute."
Destroyah could barley hear the thing as it spoke, something about meat and someone named Tofu but that was all he needed to hear! Destroyah, still slightly cautions around the unknown material, took a small nibble and gagged heavily almost instantly. The paste-like jello substance was awful, horrid to the taste. It did not bode well with his stomach at all, it nearly turned it upside down! Destroyah retched, cleaning it out of his jaws.
"Oh my! I'm soooooo sorry Mr. D! I-if I can call you that."
Destroyah just stared at the pony with eyes colder than death itself. Fluttershy could sense the dark aura around him as she began to panic and scurry away with an eep.
"What the hell is wrong with this universe!? Overly friendly creatures, horrid meat, and someone named Tofu who tastes terrible! And I though Godzilla and his mangy son were bad!"
"G-Godzilla?!"
"It's along story..."
Twilight sighed, cleaning her mouth with a napkin.
"So .. Destroyah is it?" The kaiju nodded his head. "Where do you come from?"
"We come from another universe, one of a very different nature."
"Oh great another Luna... Wait! Did you just say another UNIVERSE?!"
"Yes. One of mindless savages who possess unimaginable power." Destroyah said, its voice beginning to clearly show its anger. It was starting to lose patience and the thing named Tofu had made it very hunger for REAL flesh!
"That tells us a lot about you, doesn't it?!" Rainbow Dash said as she tapped Pinkie Pie's shoulder and they both began to chuckle. Destroyah could barely stand their insolence but it knew that the time would come, soon enough.
"Uh you aren't an alicorn, are you?" Twilight asked.
"What is this... Alicorn... of which you speak of?" Destroyah replied, confused by what she said.
"I'll take that as a no. Well you have wings so you can fly, and you have a horn so I'm assuming you can use magic."
Destroyah snorted. "Magic? Really? You expect us to believe this?!"
Twilight levitated a plate. "Duh!"
Destroyah was not impressed, it could do better! Still, it would be difficult to find a meal here in a place were this blundering fools would not be around! It feared starvation but quickly rejected that thought from its mind and cleared its throat, keeping its predatory instinct intact.
"We can't use magic, hah! Not even close! We can do something FAR better!!!" Destroyah said as an evil grin rose to its bitter face.
Blazing red micro-oxygen energy sparked and crackled from its horn. Destroyah grabbed the largest diamond he could find on Rarity's dress and tore it clean off, flipped it into the air. Rarity was aghast, how could this ugly beast have the audacity to not only touch her but rip a beautiful diamond off her precious clothes?! The diamond flipped in the air and then descended, coming straight down onto Destroyah's mighty laser horn. Destroyah's horn came down in perfect sync with the diamond and cleaved it in two, smashing the table with it. The ponies jumped out of the way before it crashed down, trying not to get split in half like the diamond. Rarity was about to protest until she saw the sizzling ends of the diamond amongst the ruins of the table which immediately shut her up. Destroyah loosed his micro-oxygen breath upon the cleaved diamond and shattered table, disintegrating the ruble and Rarity sunk further into her seat. Destroyah opened his jaws and absorbed the micro-oxygen energy given off as his breath worked on the molecular level, stripping the molecules in the table wreckage of their oxygen atoms and sending them back to Destroyah as a source of energy for the ruthless kaiju. All the ponies present had their jaws on the table, except Pinkie who was not phased in the least.
"That was so AWESOME!!!"
Destroyah hoisted up his chin, knowing none of the others could perform such stunts of raw power.
"Well partner ah have no idea whit that was but ahm impressed! Tha takes some serious power to do!" AppleJack said as she applauded.
"I know right! He was all slice! And then Boom! Not as cool as my sonic rainboom but cool." Rainbow Dash exclaimed.
Destroyah rolled his eyes ah her boastful comment. He had figured out some of their weaknesses: Rarity was greed, Dash was vanity, Turkey .. err Fluttershy was nervousness, and AppleJack was her willingness to trust others. Destroyah mind was already teeming with nefarious ways to slaughter them all, using their weaknesses against them!
"Hey!! You know what partner! Ya'll ought to see princess Celestia since yer knew here n' all! Great way to be introduced to Equestria!"
Destroyah simply tilted his head, not entirely understanding what she was saying. Would this 'princess' taste like that Tofu guy or something richer, more divine?
"But fer now we gotta go. You have a place to stay?"
"I need no shelter and no rest, the fulfillment of slaughters is all I need!" Destroyah said with a sinister voice, leaving all the others with a terrified look on their faces.
"Okay... I'll take that as a no... You can stay with me and Spike at the library. I wouldn't mind learning some more bout ya... so long as you stays away from my boutique!"
Destroyah smirked and blew a tiny bolt of micro-oxygen at Rarity, singing her tail instantly. The flames quickly rose up her tail hairs, sending her screamed as she ran off in a hurry, complaining all across the horizon as Destroyah chuckled sinisterly. Oh how fun that was! If only I could have finished the job...

Chapter 04 - The Library
Destroyah slowly slid its eyes open, registering that dawn was approaching and the sun would be up in less than an hour. Destroyah felt something warm draped over its hard body. It swiveled its head around to see a purple cloth covering its body. There was something else cuddled up near its form, something alive! It could sense her slowed heart as it moved its body away from hers. It wanted nothing to do with her.
It was obvious, however, that Twilight, still fast asleep, was shivering, freezing in the outdoor winter environment. It was clear that she shared feeling for the kaiju despite its grotesque appearance, and wanted to contort it during the night at her own detriment. Destroyah could not understand how anyone could ever feel anything for its merciless soul. Her actions confused its cluttered mind but it couldn't think under the burning conditions under the blanket. If quickly lifted the now heated cloth off its body and draped it over hers. She instantly cuddled up with the worm fabric and stopped her shivering. Destroyah wrapped her up nice and tight for easy transport and flew her over to her bed, laying her back down in absolute silence. After taking a few seconds to pity her weak form, it exited the small room, closing the door behind itself. Destroyah moved downstairs and paced violently, raging inside about what he had done.
"Why did we do such egregious things?! We have no emotions, no pity, no generosity, no heart, how can this happen?! Perhaps we just simply abhor sickened sustenance! Yes, that's it! For the chase to be worth while, our prey must be fresh and healthy!"
Destroyah sought to reassure himself with that thought, succeeding for the current moment. It wasn't everyday that someone, anyone, decided to cuddle up next to the kaiju of death. Destroyah was split, has this world softened me, no, never, I am beyond that, it though to itself. It finally decide to seat itself on the nearby couch, pulling out a random book from the non-fiction section of the library as it sat. Maybe it could gain a little insight on this strange place of friendship and ponies. The book had a cyan blue cover which read 'My Little Dashie'. The name sounded familiar to the demon kaiju but it couldn't put a claw on it. It shrugged and opened the book sluggishly, soon realizing its eyes were not use too making out such small objects or, in this case, words. The kaiju swiveled its head around, searching for something that could enhance its vision. Sure enough on the coffee table sat a pair of half-moon glasses. Destroyah knew little about these peculiar objects but when it put them on, its vision was instantly enhanced, at least for short-range viewing. Destroyah returned to the book and began reading, scanning every word with detail for maximum absorption.
An hour or so had passed since Twilight had stopped shivering and had been placed in her bed by the 'heartless' Destroyah. She slowly rolled out, still not fully awake, and glanced at the still sleeping Spike beside her. Twilight stretched out her limbs as her memory was jogged, she hadn't lost consciousness there but on the balcony, next to Destroyah. She sluggishly exited her room and looked out onto the porch but there was no one in sight. She slowly trotted downstairs and saw it seated on the couch in absolute silence with a book in claw. She smirked with a knowing smile and walked into the kitchen, eager to prepare breakfast. Destroyah was so engrossed in
the book that it took no notice of her presence whatsoever. After about another half hour of intense reading, Destroyah closed the book, placing it aside on the nearby table. It had no idea that any creature could have such complex emotions. It knew that humans where evil, insane creatures with a MASSIVE superiority complex yet no wisdom to control it but this book made it question that judgement. Is everything we know wrong, no, of course not, killing is the only way, Destroyah though to himself. Destroyah raised himself from the soft couch, his mind still twisted and in a state of discord from all the ridiculousness this strange dimension had to offer.
"No! Don't think like this! All life is meant to sustain us! We were born in the beginning
and we will create the end!" Destroyah said in a strong voice, alerting Twilight to his activeness, "We- ... What is that heavenly aroma?!"
Destroyah whipped its head back and forth, trying to pinpoint were the scent was originating. Its excellent senses soon pointed it to a room with a white-tiled floor and flat white walls known as the kitchen. Destroyah quickly moved towards the scent and entered the room, eager to see what it was. It moved to the counter, observing the broiling coffee pot, as it began sniffing the dark, heated liquids.
"Want some coffee?"
Destroyah leaped into the air in surprise and bashed its head through the ceiling, leaving it central horn stuck and its body suspended. Twilight giggled uncontrollable, trying to keep it to herself with little success. Destroyah raged, blazing its horn with crimson micro-oxygen energy as it torn through the roof, freeing itself. Destroyah came down with a great thud, crushing the floor tiles under its clawed feet. Destroyah snarled violently at Twilight, raging inside believing this was all a prank. Twilight was stunned by its display of rage for such a little matter and upon seeing the aghast look on he face, Destroyah knew that to obtain the maximum amount of energy from this gold mine dimension, he would have to keep quite. Ceasing laser horn, Destroyah calmed itself and apologized for overreacting, hating every lie that spewed out of its deadly jaws.
"We are sorry for our actions, we merely overreacted." Destroyah said, finally getting the hang of stating things that were clear lies.
"Oh no, I should apologize for scaring you in the first place!" Twilight replied. Destroyah sat down next to the coffee pot and let the soothing aroma melt all his rage away, though it still lingered inside.
"So, it looks like the doomsday dragon is not so tough after all! You're just a big softie!"
"Excuse us?!" Destroyah, said, wanting not to lash out at her for the unholy insult.
"Oh come on, I know you have a soft side! I saw how you put me back in my bed tough guy!"
"That was for our own reasons... not out of pity!" Destroyah replied, raging inside.Twilight gave it a humorous look, knowing that he was only blowing off smoke.
Either way, she decided, noticing the scowling look on the demon's face, to not mention the book for now since the the kaiju reactions were priceless!
Twilight continued to giggle a bit. The kaiju knew it was best to not respond, so it just slumping over chin, resting on the cold table surface. Twilight smirked. Point one goes to the unicorn but Destroyah would not be phased! Twilight got up from the table and poured a mug of coffee and slid it to Destroyah. The kaiju looked at it for a moment, not sure what the smoking, blackened liquid was, before taking a tiny lap with its serpentine tongue. Destroyah's rage instantly melted away as the delicious substance rolled down its throat, it had to have more! Wasted no time, Destroyah crashed its head into the mug and exhaled the blissful drink, savoring every last drop.
"This drink, we like it! Another!" Destroyah said, slamming his claws against the counter. Twilight smiled and flicked the kaiju's rock-hard nose. Destroyah was stunned.
"I don't think so mister! We don't need you all jittery when you meet Princess
Celestia!"
"What do you mean, what does this divine drink have to do with actions?!"
"It's coffee, it has caffeine in it, hello?!"
Destroyah still didn't understand what she meant but it decide to not question and reluctantly handed the mug back over to Twilight, sliding its tongue back in to catch any remaining deliciousness before it did.
A knocking came to the door. Twilight instantly raised herself and scampered off to go get it. She was eagerly greeted by her cheerful friends. After ushering them in they sat and talked for several minutes, leaving Destroyah out of the conversation, until they finally called it in. It was Twilight who spoke.
"So should we get going? I'm sure old softie here would love to meet the Princess."
Destroyah smashed its elbow into hers with quit some force as it whispered "Don't ever call me that again!"
Destroyah wanted to tear her throat right out but knew it would be best not to.
"Whatever you say Mr. D!" Twilight replied. Destroyah was not impressed with its new nickname but anything was better than the disgraceful softie! It would have rather been slaughters by Burning Godzilla back in its old universe with the rest of its kin then be subjected to such horrific condemnation!
"Well in all actuality darling do you really think its such a good idea?"
"Of course! You don't care what other ponies think of you do you D?"
Destroyah shrugged indicating he didn't give a damn. Why would its prey's opinion mean anything to it? They would all be slain in the end!
"Then its settled!"
"Jus' a second sugar cube!"
"What is it AppleJack?"
"Did Applebloom say anythin' to y'all?"
"Yes she mentioned the Flim, Flam Brothers. Are they giving you more trouble?"
"Y'all could say tha'. Big Mac n' ah heard lots o' commotion outside last night an
when we got there, we found ourselves a trashed campsite and a while lota' blood!" The ponies in the room grew silent upon hearing the word 'blood' leak from her mouth while Destroyah simply gave a twisted grin that went unnoticed, realizing that his handiwork was not left unnoticed. "Mac n' ah recon its tha' Timber Wolves. Ah mean they were so
close to tha' Everfree."
"Oh the poor souls!"
Destroyah filed that information away, now realizing that the forest meant a free hunting ground.
"Well ah guess we ought ta' get goin'!"
"Right! We need to report this to Princess Celestia ASAP!"
The ponies got up almost in unison, preparing to leave the building, or more accurately the tree, instantly. Destroyah looked them over, noticing they all sprouted strange markings on their flanks.
"What are those patterns on your rears?"
"Eh? What an odd question! They are cutie marks, silly! We all get them when we find our special talents!"
Destroyah shrugged and rose, understanding that its question was meaningless... at least for the time being.
"What a strange world." Destroyah said as it exited the library with the rest of the lot.
"And dear you look absolutely dreadful with those reading glasses!"
Rarity flicked the half moon glasses off of Destroyah's nose, causing him to
flinch slightly. It forgot that it was still wearing them from its little reading session. Rarity also leaned in and whispered harshly in its ear.
"That was for partially burning my tail you freak!"
Destroyah rolled its eyes, realizing her childish behavior. It wanted to strike back but knew that her time was near, all it had to do was site back and wait! Lost in though, Destroyah was almost left behind as the ponies trotted towards the train station.
"Come on Mr. D! We gotta' go!" Twilight said a she looked back to alert it to their departure. Destroyah instantly snapped out of its trans and spread its wings, quickly rising into the skies and following the group. As it landed on the edge of their mass, exposing its ghastly form when retracting its wings, the nearby crowds were terrified and stunned. Rarity was especially not comfortable with the beast next to hear for it drove her usually crowding fans away. It wasn't all bad though, Destroyah kept the lines short and granted them access to their own free car! None of the guards dared to challenge its might!
To be continued...
Beware tofu lies ahead! Finally I update! Aint I a prick?
Chapter 05 - Demons and Royalty
Destroyah looked around the train cart and chose one seat in the rear. The train was cold no doubt and it would only get colder at the elevation above sea level increased. Destroyah looked at each individual pony as they entered the cart in an orderly manner behind it. All their vibrant colors would soon be turned to crimson red as their blood would pour but that was now just a plot at the moment, a plot it was not ready to unfurl. Destroyah quickly shut its eyes and tried to drift into a gentle slumber but the chatter of the other ponies was too much for its eardrums to bear. In the back it lay as it tried to block out the sound with its massive wings with little success, they were hollering far to much.
"Enough! Can't a kaiju get some decent sleep around here?!" Destroyah shouted, wanting to lash out at its infernal companions. The ponies all store at Destroyah in its rage with disgusted or disappointed looks on their faces.
"Our apologies, that was not intentional, bur could you lower the volume of your chatter."
"All you had to do was ask!" Twilight responded, her disgusted face quickly turning to a cheerful smile.
"Thank you."
The cart instantly got a lot quieter and Destroyah was finally able to settled down and drift off into a blissful slumber, the heat radiating from its chest keeping it warm as the temperature around it continued to drop.
It had been at least a few hours since they entered the train and Destroyah had not moved once. Being a kaiju born from death and destruction, it didn't dream nor twist and turn from a toiled mind. Regardless, the journey seemed fast to the patient kaiju for, compared to its multi-billion-year slumber, this was mere moments! Finally, the urge to rise overcame the calmed kaiju but as its golden eyes opened, it was greeted to a strange sigh, one it had never anticipated nor thought possible. Six fuzzy ponies were cuddled up next to the demon's from, all asleep and warmed by the kaiju's radiating body. Destroyah leaped back, startled and disgusted by its wake-up call but the bodies around it made the kaiju lose balance and topple to the floor, taking Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie with it. It landed with a muffled thud on them, making something of a cute squeaking noise as it crashed down upon them, giving the illusion that they were made of air-filled rubber. Destroyah quickly got up and loudly cleared its thick throat. The other four slowly stirred from their slumber, rubbing their eyes as they stretched against each other. They noticed that the train had stopped, indicating they had arrived at their destination, Canterlot, and they all poured out of the train cart. The train doors shut behind them and the train steamed as it roared back to life and chugged off int the distance. Destroyah now gazed upon the beauty and majesty of Canterlot, wondering what it would look if set ablaze. But what really caught its eye was the the magnificent castle. It was the ideal symbol of regal power and wealth. Oh how deeply the kaiju wanted to tear it apart, entrapping and slaughtering every life form inside. Regardless of this dreaded thought, Destroyah followed the six as they trotted their way toward the castle. Destroyah assumed this was where their 'Princess Celestia' was hiding out. Destroyah creeped behind the others, stalking the group from the shadows as to not cause alarm. It didn't want everyone to see it just yet, it needed time to devise a plan. Soon enough, however, they had made it to the massive gates of the castle's outer walls. Destroyah was the first to approach and was immediately cut off by the guard's strong wings.
"Halt beast! What is your purpose here?"
"Fools! You dare stand in the way of the all-powerful Destroyah?! We shall have your heads for this!" The demon kaiju lunged at the guards, only to be deflected by there armor. At that moment Destroyah realized it was not at full strength, not even close! It didn't even have the strength to smash through their pitiful armor! Destroyah was heavily embarrassed by its weakness but not deterred in the least. The kaiju hissed threateningly at the guards and it was clear that a fight was about to brew. But thankfully the other ponies weren't that far behind the demon kaiju. Their presence alone put the guards at ease, though Destroyah was still prepared for battle, even war... well, at least mentally.
"State your business here."
"We would like to see the Princess, if that is alright."
"Is that 'thing' with you?"
"Yes, yes it is!"
"Very well, you may pass." The guards moved aside and they all were allowed to enter, even Destroyah. As the group proceeded on, Destroyah lingered for the time being, wanting to get back at those stubborn guards. Its deadly tail slithered back towards them and snapped at their ankles, startling the trained ponies as they jumped into the air. Destroyah chuckled to itself as it continued to follow its oblivious prey.
The inside of the castle was well furnished: the windows where large and stain-glass, the carpet was soft and gentle, it was truly an awe-filled sight but still, Destroyah had no interest. The demon kaiju continued to followed the ponies to what it assumed was the throne room, hoping to find this Celestia in there. The kaiju was greeted by two massive golden doors and yet more guards. It was growing tired already of this whole royalty thing, when was it going to be able to demolish cities, trample acres, and destroy all that is life?! Twilight walked up to one guard.
"Hello Star Light. We are here to see the Princess."
"Good day Twilight. You guys are lucky, she isn't swamped with work today."
The royal guard called Star Light turned and knocked on the great doors before him. The doors illuminated and opened slowly to reveal Princess Celestia seated in her throne, glowing in all her regal glory. Despite her hard look, she had a warm smile upon her face as she greeted the incoming ponies. Then the demon appeared. Her charming smile was instantly dulled as she tilted her head in a curious manner, wanting what this ghastly beast standing in her great hall was.
"Pray tell good creature, and pardon my rudeness or bluntness, but what are you?"
"We are Des-" Pinkie Pie broke in rather excitedly.
"Ohohohohohoh!!!He'sADragonThingyFromAnotherUniverse!!!WeCallHimMr.D!!!"
Pinkie's words flowed together like a massive torrent assaulting Celestia's ears. But despite it she was used to Pinkie's rapid fire speech. Celestia had understood what she had said.
"Another... Universe?"
"Yes, we come from a very different place, one of terrible men and of kaiju."
"Kaiju?"
"Yes, we are Destroyah, kaiju of war birthed from the Oxygen Destroyer."
"But Pinkie Pie said you were a dragon?"
"The word 'dragon' fails to describe our true power, we are nothing of the sort, we are kaiju."
"I see. So then, what exactly are kaiju?"
"It is hard to describe exactly what we are but what we can say is that kaiju are unimaginably powerful, many birthed from nuclear horrors that were never meant to be created."
"Okay... Why do you say 'we?' Are there more of you?"
"You could say that. We are many and we are one. We create a single entity that you see before you but we are several thousand strong."
"So you are made up of smaller organisms that have combined together to form a larger unit?"
"Yes."
"Are all kaiju like yourself?"
"No. All kaiju are entirely unique in one way or another but we are all strong, gifted with the strength and power to control all."
The other ponies were starting to get very confused and bored at the bombardment of questions. Rainbow Dash lightly taped Celestia's shoulder, indicating it was time to cease the questioning.
"Well anyway, it has been a very long time since I have seen my little ponies so why not sit for lunch?!"
The young ponies were famished after their long nap and Destroyah had a fair appetite as well. They were eager to enter the dining hall and seat themselves as Destroyah followed the ponies uneasy. It was like a Japanese wasp amongst calm honey bees buzzing amongst the combs of the hive, unaware of the lurking stranger and future killer. The kaiju sat itself down near the edge of the large table at the center of the dining room, not wanting to socialize any further with the joyful fillies. It had already decide it didn't like Celestia, her infinite questioning had begun to really irritate the kaiju. The ponies had ordered from a well-mannered, professional waiter but Destroyah was incapable of speech at that moment, lost in though and oblivious to its surroundings.
"Well, Mr. D is it? What will it be?"
"..."
Twilight leaned in and whispered into Celestia's ear.
"A carnivore eh? I know just the thing!"
Celestia, in turn, whispered to the waiter who quickly trotted back into the kitchen to tell the chef what to prepare.
Not long after the ponies where brought their meals, each seaming with perfection on a lugubrious silver platter. Destroyah sat expectantly hoping for something large and juicy, something preferably ALIVE! What Destroyah got though was something entirely different, the food substance it hated most of all! It sat in all its white, jiggly glory upon the silver plate, a repulsive sight to the demonic kaiju. Destroyah reared back and hissed at the block of tofu before it. Fluttershy leaned over and whispered to Celestia.
"Oh. Sorry about that D!"
Celestia recalled the waiter to her position. After a brief, hushed conversation the waiter departed with the egregious tofu in hoof back to the kitchen. Celestia gave the kaiju a very sheepish smile, which Destroyah neither cared for nor enjoyed but the it kept that part to itself. Soon enough, however, the waiter reappeared with a slab of raw meat. The kaiju was finally appealed.
"Eating meat is rare occurrence here but we do have some for the Griffon and some of our other carnivorous ambassador."
Destroyah cracked a twisted grin and, much to the horror of those present, bashed its skull into the raw flesh, sending blood flying as it tore, downing it in a single hideous gulp.The spectacle was both noisy and grotesque. Once gone, Destroyah raised a claw to its bloody maw and gave a soft belch.
"Now that's what We call fine dining! You don't even have to hunt it down!"
"Indeed... my waiters are the finest!" Celestia replied, ignoring the last part.
Celestia's anxiety was unnoticed by the kaiju still unfamiliar with her body language and communication.
"So what is this universe you come from like?"
The kaiju grew dark almost instantly, frightening the ponies around it.
"A dreaded place filled to the brim with war and death. No man nor kaiju can escape the terrifying clutches of the raging wars that plague our once beautiful planet."
"It sounds like a horrid place!"
"You have no idea." That was a blatant lie, Destroyah loved every bit of the slaughter it used to frolic in back home. It reveled in the death and chaos that followed its demonic form. Destroyah rose from the table, stretching its enormous wings, nearly plunging the room into darkness as its wings blocked the vibrant light from the beautiful sunset.
"Night approaches, my favorite time of day."
AppleJack's head shot up.
"Wha! Ah no! Ah forgot Applebloom!"
"Is this a bad thing?"
"Of course! Them bullies Diamond Tiara an Silver Spoon bully her if ahm not there!"
Destroyah ruffled its wings about and took the excuse to leave, the castle was to cheery for it anyway.
"I shall go."
"At this hour, are ya' sure? Ya' don't have to."
"Yes."
Destroyah spread its dual set of wings. Even Celestia was impressed at the sight of the draconic wings. AppleJack tilted her head, still unsure wether or not she was okay with this creature picking up her little sister.
"Are ya' totally sure partner?"
"Yes. Our wings can propel us there much faster than your mere legs and besides, this castle, no offense Celestia, is a tad bit bright for my tastes."
Without another word the kaiju winged itself into the air and took off, happy to be out of that joy-infested nuthouse. It found Celestia's presence more than uncomfortable in all ways, there was nothing dark about her. She KNEW something was wrong with the kaiju, and not just its displacement in the universe.
Once Destroyah was out of ear shot, AppleJack walked over to Rainbow Dash.
"Could ya' follow im'? Ah jus wanna make sure Applebloom 'll be all right."
"Sure! I am the element of loyalty after all!"
The cyan blue pegasus flew straight up and rocketed after the demon pony. She quickly caught up to Destroyah but didn't make herself known, opting for stealth. She hid on a rather large cloud and followed as Destroyah slowed and then flew down once the school was in sight.
In the school yard three fillies stood, one pink with a purple and white mane. On her head stood a diamond tiara and her cutie mark was of the same head ornament. The other was a silver colored filly with a black mane and half-moon glasses. Her cutie mark was a silver spoon. The third filly was yellow with a red mane. She was devoid of any mark on her flank. That,
however, is exactly what the bite-sized bullies where making fun of her for.
"Hey blank flank! Enjoying another day of being bare?"
"Eew she's like totally naked!"
"I know right!"
Applebloom tried to drown out the bullies but they had been tormenting her for some time now and her eyes where misting over.
"Aww is the wittle foal gonna cry? Go on cry. Cry cry cry cr-
The bullies where cut off. Applebloom looked at them as they store in sheer terror in her general direction. She noticed a dark shadow cast upon her from a massive behemoth above her. Applebloom looked to either side of her and noted the large crescent shaped claws attached to muscular red armored legs. She looked up to see the underside of Destroyah's chin and neck. Destroyah placed a claw on her and slid her under it, keeping its gaze focused completely on the trembling bullies who now had its undivided attention. Saliva was dribbling from between its razor sharp teeth; the steak it had devoured at Celestia's palace was no where near enough to fill the beast's bottomless appetite. It had a good mind to eat them right there but it didn't want to make a spectacle in front of Applebloom. The fillies looked like they were about to wet themselves as Destroyah promised murder in its eyes, those golden jewels filled with dark intent. But fortunately the tense moment was broken by two other fillies.
"Appleblo- ..... Oh. My. Celestia!"
Two little fillies sat gaping at the kaiju. One was an orange pegasus with a purple mane. The other was a white unicorn with flecks of pink-purple in her hair. Destroyah turned its attention back to the cowering bullies and leaned in slowly, savoring the moment as they gloriously trembled. It's face was about an inch from theirs.
"Now would be a good time to run!"
That was more than enough to send them packing. Even their dust trails couldn't keep up with them. Destroyah returned its attention to the new arrivals in a calm manner.
"That. Was. So. AWESOME!"
The orange pegasus was amazed and started bouncing up and down in circles around the demon pony. Destroyah, in turn, gripped Applebloom in its tail pincer gently and deposited her next to her friends. The little white unicorn slowly approached.
"Are you ok Applebloom?"
"Yea. He helped me out."
"You may call us the Destroyah."
The little filly was looking up the chest of the kaiju with awe.
"Whatever ya' say! Thanks for savin' Applebloom!"
"Don't mention it." Destroyah replied though its voice said 'Don't bring it up again, EVER or there will be hell to pay!!!'
Destroyah extended its wings, ready to catch the cool night breeze until a small nudge caught its attention. It turned its head back, looking intently yet with little interest at the small crusaders. The orange one spoke up.
"Well since you helped one of our friends out you want to hang with us?"
The kaiju raised a thorny eyebrow and stood motionless for a moment.
"Hell, might as well..." Destroyah replied, knowing the little fillies would not let up in any case. Destroyah folded its wings against its body as it followed the small ponies. The little crusaders led it to a simple little tree house with a good-sized banner emblazoned with the letters RD and a picture of the cyan pegasus herself jutting out of its side. Destroyah rolled its eyes at the sight of it and reluctantly entered with them. But what even the kaiju failed to notice was the shadow that had descended over the house.
To be continued...
(deleted Scene)
Destroyah looked around the train cart and chose one seat in the back. The train was cold no doubt and it would only get colder at the elevation above sea level increased. Destroyah looked at each individual pony. Until his eyes settled on AppleJack and Rainbow Dash. His eyes narrowed and a nasty plot formed in his head.
"Hey AppleJack."
"Yea partner?"
"Can you do anything special with your name?"
"Say whit now?"
"Take Rainbow Dash for example. She can say my name is Rainbow Dash and I'm dashing off. Now you try."
"Err alrighty then. Mah name is AppleJack an ahm Jacki- .. wait. AH'LL KILL YA!!"
Destroyah flew around the cart avoiding the steaming earth pony laughing his demonic flank off. Rainbow flew up leaning on the kaiju laughing till there where tears in her eyes.
"That was great!"
Of blood-shed and recovery
Moar gore!
Chapter 06 - Of Bloodshed and Recovery
The fillies had spent several hours talking to and attempting to play with the kaiju, despite the beast's careless attitude. But they usually just bounced around, expelling energy, then curled up next to the demon pony and, when fully rested, started the process all over again. The orange pegasus Scootaloo was the most energetic, always wanting to say or do something. But what they would usually do was just ask the kaiju why it didn't have a cutie mark.
"Because we are not from this strange place."
That was its usual remark.
"So Mr. D, is it? What do you think our cutie marks will be?!"
Destroyah scratched its chin, not really caring but knowing that they wouldn't leave it alone unless it gave an answer. It hadn't expected that one, out of all the questions they could have asked. But watching the orange filly convinced it of one thing. It pointed a claw at Scootaloo.
"Yours will probably have something to do with speed. But I have no idea of you two. We guess we need to study you some more."
Scootaloo brightened right up as Sweetie Belle and Applebloom sulked a bit. After a few more minutes of the fillies annoying the kaiju with menial questions they finally noticed the sun sinking into the Earth. After a few good-byes, Sweetie and Applebloom where ready to leave but a knocking on the door caught the kaiju's attention. Snaking its tail skywards, it opened the flimsy door to let in... AppleJack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash?
"There ya'll are. Now ah' hope ya'll didn't cause our new friend too much o' headache."
"They weren't... too much... of a problem..." Destroyah said, blatantly lying. They were a living nightmare for the demonic kaiju!
"Thas' great tah' hear! Now Applebloom come whit me fer' supper. Ya'll know Granny is mighty strict about it."
"Indeed, come Sweetie. You and Opal still need to eat."
The two fillies followed their respective sisters but Scootaloo didn't move. Rainbow stared at Destroyah waiting for it to leave. The kaiju showed no signs of moving any time soon, retracting its wings and settling on the floor nearby. It had no issue sleeping in the trees. It stared right back at Rainbow with its head rested against the cold floor.
"You and the energetic one related?"
"No."
"Then why are you here?"
Rainbow sighed clearly annoyed, seeing she would have to explain. She sat down rubbing her temples.
"Dash .. Its ok. You can tell him."
"Are you sure squirt?"
"Yea."
Dash sighed again and looked Destroyah straight in its cold eye, trying to get its full attention but she already had it.
"Scoots here doesn't have any family. I stay here all night with her. That is why I'm prone to sleeping during the day."
Destroyah didn't respond more than a slight jerk of its head.
"Aww how sweet for a dweeb!"
There was a loud crash as something large and powerful burst through the roof of the house. A large, four legged bird stood with her back to the kaiju.
"Gilda!"
"Yo RD. Sorry but I gotta' take something from ya'. Meet me at the ruins in the Everfree alone or she dies!"
In one quick fluid motion, Gilda, the dreaded griffon, grabbed Scootaloo in her front paws and took to the skies, exiting out of the same hole she created in the roof. Rainbow's annoyed attitude instantly turned to rage as she prepared to rush after that unlawful griffon but Destroyah gripped her tail in its mouth, pulling her straight back to ground level with little effort.
"Hey! What are you doing! I have to help her, let me go, LET ME GO!!!"
"Enough! Screaming is not going to solve anything. We will go after the flying butterball turkey. You get your friends."
Rainbow sighed again, looking distraught.
"Fine! Just make it quick and make sure she is alive so I can beat her down."
The kaiju flashed a twisted grin before bursting through the roof, doubling the size of the original hole.
"Hey! watch it!"
Destroyah just gave her that same twisted grin as it streaked across the sky, heading straight for the Everfree. It knew the location of the forest but the ruins, it had never heard of such a place. Nevertheless, it took only mere minutes for the kaiju to reach the forest and even fewer for it to quickly locate the ancient building. Destroyah landed at the entrance and walked inside, its claws clicking on the cold, battered stone. On a pedestal stood the griffon and on another connected to the main one was a hog-tied Scootaloo. Destroyah stared down the griffon.
"Dude the buck are you? What, Dash needs to send other dweebs to do her jobs? Fine, I'll kill the twerp and then I'll beat you down."
Gilda moved over to Scootaloo but before she could even lift a paw, she was rammed clean through the back walls of the building by Destroyah's massive skull. The monster raised its chin in glory, finally able to do the thing it does best, fight! Gilda pushed aside the rubble from her body and rose infuriated and in pain.
"Your gonna' pay for that dweeb!"
"Call me that again and I'll make sure to split you in two."
"That's it!" Gilda leaped for Destroyah, using her wings to propel her foreword as her claws extended for the final strike. Destroyah simply snickered, dodging the heavy blow just before it strict, countering with a deadly slash of its laser horn. Gilda screamed out in pain as she came crashing to the floor while her wing came tumbling down before Destroyah, complete severed from her body. Destroyah approached her crippled form, its maw filled with micro-oxygen energy as its heartless eyes store down at her piteous state.
"I warned you, but they never listen!" Gilda's eye snapped open and she lashed out in rage at Destroyah, slashing through its floral pattern covering its chest. Destroyah thrusted back with its wings to put some room between it and the raging griffon as it coiled up in pain. Destroyah looked down to see its torn floral pattern, jammed, bleeding and impossible to open. It then remembered that it's armor was not fully hardened after its transfer through dimensions.
"Is that the best you got? Even Godzilla Jr. managed to do better! You're pathetic!"
Destroyah snarled, loosing its micro-oxygen spray at the stunned Gilda, blasting her right in the face. The deadly blow singed her feathers clean off as it liquified her cheek to the bone. She cried out in sheer pain but still refused to give in. She lashed out at the kaiju once again, tearing at its face with her curved talons. Destroyah's face pushed back in pain but the kaiju would not stay away for long. Destroyah struck, returning the blow with a massive smash of the kaiju's fist, gripped the griffon's bare face and crushed it into the floor. Gilda was powerless to escape the kaiju's strong grip as it thrusted her into the air and sent her crashing into the roof, leaving a large crack were she hit. She was in a really bad position: bones snapped, muscles torn, flesh liquefied, she was not going to survive much longer. Even in her life-threatening state, she would not let herself lose.
"Your better than I expected dweeb but it you think you're gonna' beat me, you're crazy!"
"I already am."
"You're a dead pony!" Gilda lashed out at Destroyah but the demon easily avoided her weakened blow, latching onto her neck with its pincer-tipped tail and pining her to the ground.
"We are not ponies, WE ARE KAIJU!" Destroyah's tail came sweeping around the kaiju's body, smashing Gilda into wall after wall, tearing through pillars and ancient relics that had lasted through the ages. The crack in the ceiling began to lengthen as debris seeped from the gouge, indicating that the roof would soon give in to the intense battle.
When Destroyah finally let go, it left Gilda in a pool of her own blood, covered in debris from the cumbering ruins. Destroyah began its chant of death as it approached the near lifeless griffon.
"We were born in the beginning and we will create the end. Killing is out pleasure and we do it with ease. There is no stopping our unimaginable might. We are Destroyah, we are death!"
"No, NO!!! This can' be happening!"
"Oh, but it is!" Destroyah said as a demonic grin rose to the kaiju's face. It lowered its head and latched onto Gilda's throat, lifting her powerless body clear off the ground. Gilda again winced in pain but was unable to defy the kaiju's great strength; what she was experiencing was only the beginning! Destroyah's teeth sunk deep into her silken neck tissue, tearing through flesh, arteries and even bone. As the demon's teeth sunk deeper, its deadly micro-oxygen bio-weapon was unleashed into her veins, spreading rapidly through her bloodied body. She began to feel excruciating pain as the nuclear bio-weapon began stripping her molecules of oxygen atoms, tearing them apart and, in tern, liquefying her form! She screamed out to anyone that could here but the hideous bugle was cut short as her vocal cords melted. Destroyah inhaled its gruesome sustenance with joy and content. It had won. Destroyah roared to the sky to signal its victory. After its boastful expression of sheer power, Destroyah remembered what it had come here to do. Turning it's blood-drenched skull, the monster turned to face Scootaloo. The young pony was trembling in her bonds. Destroyah approached the young filly with a slightly dulled facial expression. Th kaiju looked down upon the bound filly, murder promised in its eyes, and snorted. Destroyah reared back, its massive horn cracking with micro-oxygen energy as laser horn charged. Scootaloo would have screamed if she could have but her mouth was covered. Destroyah snickered as its head came crashing down, ripping through the very atmosphere around its deadly horn. Scootaloo shrieked from within her bonds, turning away and closing her eyes, thinking this was the end. As the room quieted, Scootaloo opened her eyes to see her ropes perfectly cleaved in half. Destroyah had perfect aim, not so much as clipping the young filly. Scootaloo instant ran to the kaiju and squeezed its leg hard. Destroyah was not used to anyone showing any sign of affection to it.
"Thank you sooooo much, you saved my life!" The young pony said, still holding onto the kaiju's strong leg.
"I don't know what to say..." A loud crack shattered the tender moment. Destroyah looked up to see that the place was falling apart. They had to get out of there, FAST!!! Destroyah grabbed onto Scootaloo with its tail pincer.
"Hey, what are you doing?!"
"No time to explain, you need to go, NOW!" Destroyah tossed her out of the ruins with a quick thrust of its tail. She landed outside the crumbling structure with a soft thud in the nearby grass. She quickly rose and looked back as the building collapsed, Destroyah still standing inside.
"D, NO!!!" The filly screamed, slumping to the floor with her eyes filled with tears. Her new found 'hero' was crushed right before her very eyes. There was a long moment of silence as she was left sobbing on the floor until Rainbow Dash and her friends arrived.
"What happened?! Are you alright?!"
"I'm fine" Scootaloo said, still sobbing, "D saved me but not himself, he's still trapped inside!"
"Oh dear! That poor soul!" They all stood in silence at the demolished ruins, remembering the good deeds the kaiju had performed. They all believed that Destroyah would forever stay entombed within but as they began to tear up, the rubble moved! They store dumbfounded as Destroyah burst its way out of the heavy rubble. The monster freed itself within second and stood bloodied atop the mound. The kaiju, beaten and battered, swayed back and forth slightly before crashing to the floor, knocked unconscious by the building's collapse. The last thing its golden eyes say were seven or so blurry objects of vibrant colors approaching its beaten form with haste, then everything turned black...
Destroyah cracked open its eyes to find itself laying on a soft bed, covered in a silken cloth that warmed the kaiju's cold, hard body. It's floral pattern where Gilda had slashed it was heavily bound to prevent further blood loss. It psface had already partially regenerated and needed no such binding.
"Oh, awake already?! And I thought I recovered fast!"
Destroyah shifted its head over to the speaker. The rainbow-maned pegasus was about two inches from it face but the sluggish kaiju cared little for personal space.
"You saved Scoots and ran off Gilda. That takes guts man."
"Don't mention it, it was our pleasure. We don't think Gilda will be an issue ever again."
"Why would you say that?"
"She got what she deserved."
"Well good!" Dash glanced left and right, ensuring that no one was there, before giving Destroyah a nuzzle under the chin.
"Thanks for what you did." As quick as she went in, she trotting out if the room to wait on the other side, leaving a sleeping Scootaloo on one of the chairs and a very confused, bandaged Destroyah on its medical bed.
A few hours later Scootaloo had woken up and thanked the kaiju again for its heroic feat before leaving with Rainbow. Once they where gone the kaiju sat in bored silence, alone with its thoughts, wondering if what it had just done was 'right.' Several hours passed before it heard a hoof knock on its door.
"Come."
The door opened and Destroyah beheld a navy blue mare. Adorning her chest was an obsidian chest plate emblazoned with a crescent moon. On her head was a matching obsidian three pointed crown and on her hooves where silver shoes. The kaiju noted her ethereal mane, believing in all its nefarious ways that hers was far nicer than Celestia's.
"Hello good sir. We have heard what has transpired at the ruins of the castle within the Everfree forest. We must express our gratitude."
Destroyah perked up at her royal 'we'. "No thanks necessary."
"But good fellow! Thou hast ran off and injured a griffon! That in itself is a great feat for a pony." Destroyah decided to keep the fact that Gilda was not only injured, but slaughtered, to itself for the present moment.
"We don't know whether or not you have noticed but we aren't a normal pony. In fact, we are no pony at all, we are kaiju."
Luna perked at its use of 'we,' not really understanding that it was, in fact, made of several thousand creatures, if not more.
"That is for sure," she replied, ignoring the kaiju part, "but still, a celebration is in order, is it not?"
"No. We do not really need any display of gratitude, the 'thrill of the chase' is all we need."
"Then perhaps we could have a conversation in private when you feel better?"
"I guess. We don't have any plans."
"Good!"
The lunar princess trotted out of the room with something of a spring in her step. The kaiju was curious about its new arrival and actually looked forward to the meeting for some strange reason. Something about her just seemed... dark!
To be continued...
Crimson Nights and Moon Shine
Enjoy the doubled fun!
Chapter 07 - Crimson Nights and Moon Shine
Though Destroyah was not at full strength, it only took another day for the kaiju to fully heal and be discharged from the hospital. Destroyah was currently helping the CMC rebuild their tree house. Though it hated the task, it knew that it would look good to the other ponies, further ensuring its place as a solid member of their society until it was time for the kaiju to reveal itself. Applebloom had taken the lead, expertly using various tools to mend wood and place boards in their respective places. Destroyah was just around for the heavy lifting. Once it was done, it tapped her on the shoulder.
"Have you done this before?"
"Nope!"
The little filly went on her way, leaving the kaiju standing confused and slightly dumbfounded. The kaiju shook its head, realizing her stupidity. It looked up to the sky as dusk approached, unfurled its wings to feel the soft cool breeze wafting underneath its thin membranes. With a pump of its massive draconic wings, Destroyah was easily several meters off the ground. The demonic kaiju skyrocketed forwards, slicing its way through the clouds. It was making its way for Canterlot. After a few minutes of flying the grand city was close, within visibility. It flew closer and closer and closer and- *SMACK!* The kaiju smashed head-first into a large bubble that encased the castle, leaving a large crack where its horn penetrated. Destroyah pulled itself free and descended to the entrance, still slightly dizzy from the impact.
"Halt intruder! Oh by Celestia what are you?"
Destroyah raised its head to see a pure white unicorn in armor and a blue mane.
"I have an appointment with the blue princess."
"You will address her as Princess Luna."
"You dare give me orders?!"
"I can and I will!"
"Stand down Shining Armor!"
"Princess?!"
The blue alicorn in question landed gracefully next to the kaiju.
"He is our guest and we will not have you tormenting him... nor make him smack against our city's shield like a bird on a window," She stifled a slight laugh. "as humorous as it was."
"But milady! Look at him! Are you cert-"
Luna's eyes had turned slitted and teal, her maw now full of razor-sharp teeth.
"Thou wants to speak of looks?! Stand down!"
Shining sat back on his haunches, raising his front two hooves. "I'm out!" That was all he said before bolting. Luna now returned to normal, gladly welcoming the kaiju into her castle with open arms.
"We are sorry for the security. Any unauthorized personnel flying too close art to be swatted out of the sky."
Luna began to trot to her tower and the kaiju followed her, getting many strange looks along the way as usual. The kaiju and princess remained stoic and unreadable until they arrived to a pair of large obsidian double doors. Luna's horn lit up and the doors swung aside with ease despite their girth. Destroyah entered the chambers and was awestruck. The ceiling itself was made of the night sky: black and filled with constellations. In the middle of it all was an artificial moon. Destroyah looked around, noting the dark blue and silver canopy bed. Next to that was a large balcony. Opposite of the bed was a large, silver vanity mirror and a dresser. Luna had moved over and taken off her regular clothes, placing them next to a set of silver armor plating. Luna trotted over and slid rather smoothly into the bed. She patted a spot next to her, indicating for the demon to enter as well. The kaiju moved over to the bed with cautious steps, not sure what would happen next. It had never received this sort of kindness before and was rather uncertain about her motives.
Luna giggled at its cautious behavior. "We are not going to bite!" Luna found it amusing that a pony more monstrous that herself was moving cautiously around her, but at the same time it made her sad that even a stranger was nervous around her.
Destroyah finally decided to sit next to Luna, looking all around the room, admiring its dark beauty.
"So where art thou from?"
"We are from a very different place. A different relm if you will."
"Really? Doest thou have any family?"
"We look out for each other, there is no one else."
"Interesting. Pardon our rudeness but art thou male or female. We wish to be sure."
"We have no gender, at least ever since the Oxygen Destroyer struct."
"Oxygen Destroyer?"
"Our existence has to thank for that beautiful machine. My species has existed for billions of years, entombed and dormant in the Earth's thick crust for millennia but when the Oxygen Destroyer was unleashed, we... changed."
"How so?"
"We gained unimaginable power, the power to control all, the power to mend oxygen. Unfortunately, out strength has diminished eve since we transferred through dimensions. However, we can still control and manipulate the element, that is a feature we will never lose. My species is so ancient that our means of reproduction are not like those found today, we breed asexually. We divide like cells to increase our numbers and then reform back into larger units to adapt to the changing world around us."
"Interesting. So this 'Oxygen Destroyer' mutated your species and now you have no gender?"
"No, we have never had a gender, being one of the first life forms to appear on Earth. The Oxygen Destroyer merely gave us unspeakable might. Why do you speak so much of gender? is someone thinking lewed thoughts?"
Destroyah gave a devilish grin, aided by its needle-like teeth-filled maw, as a red blush crawled its way over Luna's muzzle.
"N-no, tis a lie!"
Destroyah simply gave her a sly smile.
"W-well anyway we are making a new drink. We wish for thou to try it with us."
The moon in the ceiling opened up and a hose with a clamp on it snaked out. Luna unclasped it and held two glasses under it as the clear liquid poured into them.
"We call it Moon Shine."
Luna levitated it over to the kaiju who eagerly accepted the drink. Destroyah, thinking that this 'Moon Shine' might have a taste similar to the coffee it drank earlier, bit down on the rim of the glass with no delay and threw its head back, taking the entire glass in a single shot. All was silent for a few moments. Luna was wide eyed and outright shocked, still waiting for a reaction. Destroyah simply ran its tongue over its serrated teeth deeply, enjoying the warming feeling of the liquor in its thick throat.
"That was impressive."
"Y-y-you drank it i-in one shot..."
"We waste no time when ingesting, especially when it's good."
A few hours later and both the ponies were several drunk, both having consumed several gallons of liquor. Luna nudged a swaying Destroyah.
"He- Hey. W-we gotts somethin' ta' show ya."
Luna's coat darkened, turning black. Her eyes became teal and slitted and she grew in height. The only things that remained unchanged where the ethereal mane and the large red blush on her muzzle due to the Moon Shine.
"D-dude. W-we ca- can top that!"
Nightmare Moon snorted. "Try u-us."
Destroyah nodded and prepared itself. After a few moments of uncertain and drunken swaying, Destroyah managed to disperse into its original, micro forms which congregated to form a cloud of red sparking energy. The dispersing of the creatures also dispersed the liquor within them, releasing them from their drunken condition. Returning to a stable state in a flash of light, the creatures reformed into their aggregate form. The hideous beats stood before Nightmare in all its glory: pincers snapping, jaws gaping, tail lashing. The beast truly showed Destroyah's demonic nature but Nightmare Moon was too drunk to notice any difference. She stared for a few moments before falling to the ground laughing.
"That l-looks sooo weird a-and cool a-a-at the same t-time!"
Destroyah reverted to its pony form, returning to its drunken state as well, and the beast also collapsed onto the floor, laughing itself to death. Its mind was so stupefied that it was unable to realize that a change in form could dull the effects and so, Destroyah remained severely drunk along with its 'playmate.'
Another hour or so later and the two of them were still far from sober.
"S-so then, w-we said t-the night w-will last for-forever! Y-you should h-have seen the l-looks o-on their fa-faces!!"
Nightmare Moon was leaning heavily on Destroyah who was able to keep its stance for the movement. They were both clearly drunk out of their skulls as they lay upon Luna's bed.
"Y-ya want to kn-know what the m-moon is made of?"
Destroyah somewhat swayed its head in a nod.
"M-moon pies.."
"That's not possible..."
"AH! L-look at yo-your face! N-nah! Its a b-big ass rock. M-my s-sister gets a ball o-of fire, we ge-get a rock."
The next morning, Destroyah was asleep, slumped over a dormant Nightmare Moon. Destroyah's chin was resting over the top of her neck and its draconic wing draped over her body. Her wing was further down resting on its body. In the doorway stood Celestia.
"What has been seen cannot be unseen."
Celestia turned on a dime and walked as calmly as possible out of the room. Destroyah stirred in its sleep, awakening to a very painful headache by the sudden intake of light from the crack of dawn.
"Owwwww."
Destroyah looked down to see Nightmare clutching her head.
"Oh this hurts soooo much. You take over Lulu."
Again Nightmare shifted forms, reverting to Luna. Luna sat almost comfortable. It appeared as though Nightmare had taken the brunt of the hangover.
"Morning."
Destroyah flinched. Even her soft voice infuriated the evils in its head, tearing at its mind.
"Remind us to never drink that again. The substance is a virus!"
Luna giggled. "Sure thing!"
To be continued...
Behold carnage!
Chapter 08 - Gems and Mutts
It had been a little over a week since Destroyah had severely drunken itself with Luna and it felt much better now, especially when it was with her. Luna often visited the kaiju but it didn't mind, they seemed to, surprisingly, enjoy each other's company. At the moment, they where resting in the shade of a large tree in the fields, pressed against one another. They weren't huddled together because it was cold or they needed the warmth but simply because they could. Rarity and AppleJack stood in the distance looking on.
"Oh isn't that just romantic AppleJack!"
"Ah really wouldn't know abo't it Rarity."
"Oh come now AppleJack! .... Say I wonder, is he part dragon?"
"Ah don't know. Why?"
"Because if I could get him to help me in my gem hunts it would take less time to find gems! Oh Spiky tries his best but he is simply too small to defend against those ruffians the Diamond Dogs."
"So ya want an extra snout an muscle? Makes sense ta me!"
"I'm so glad I have your approval AppleJack." Said farm pony failed to notice the sarcasm dripping from her voice. "I will go invite him."
"But aren't ya scared of him?"
"Oh AppleJack! It is unladylike to be afraid of one's friend!" Rarity leaned in and whispered into her ear. "I am a bit."
With that Rarity trotted over to the sleeping forms of the Princess and the kaiju. As Rarity trotted up she was careful not to step on their wings nor tails which draped on the floor. Destroyah's demonic tail spasmed and slightly lashed out at the approaching pony, putting her even more on-edge. Rarity avoided Destroyah's deadly tail and poked the kaiju in the side. Though its skin was tough, the millions of micro-organisms that make up its form were very sensitive and easily picked up the small tape. Destroyah cracked open its gleaming golden eyes, staring full-on at Rarity with a slightly annoyed facial expression. The creature's lack of interest unnerved the white mare a tad bit.
"Why do you disturbed our slumber?"
"Err... well now, I was wondering if you would like to accompany Spike and myself on one of our gem hunts?" She asked with a slightly fearful tone in her voice.
Destroyah slid its head over to the side, raising it off of Luna's form. It looked at Luna who was now awakened by the kaiju's sudden movement. She smiled at him. "Go on. It will be fun. With you the fun will be tripled!"
Destroyah reluctantly lifted itself up with a sigh, shuffling over to Rarity's side.
"Where to?"
"Oh follow me!"
Rarity scampered off and Destroyah trudged after her with disappointed and begrudged emotions boiling up inside. It could have slept the day away with another warm body next to it but no, it had to follow a fashion freak and a bite-sized dragon around. Wait?! Was it really thinking about Luna in that way rather than just another meal?
"What is happening to us? This corrupt world of joy and happiness had made us soft! No, this is just an illusion, we are still the slayer of all life, nothing has changed! Yes, nothing has changed..." The kaiju tried to reassure itself with that thought, disregarding the previous one for the moment.
Destroyah followed the white mare to a dusty plane. The dragon Spike had long since tagged along. Just watching that pathetic ball of scales made Destroyah sick. The worthless maggot was hopelessly in love and he looked surprisingly similar to its 'dead' enemy's son. Remembering the kaiju king made Destroyah shudder for but a moment. So much raw power unleashed on it all at once, there was nothing it could do against the overlord.
'What do we have to worry about? That beast was slain back at home. When we return, nothing will stand in our way! Yes, nothing!'
Destroyah was so caught up in thought that it didn't notice the large hole in the ground before it. The kaiju tripped over it, crashing on the floor beneath. Once the kaiju hit the dirt, Rarity took notice of the hole too.
"Caution boys, we are in Diamond Dog territory."
Destroyah didn't know what a Diamond Dog was but the tone in Rarity's voice suggested it was bad for her which meant a meal for it. Things just got a whole lot more interesting! Maybe leaving Luna was a good idea after all! Out of the hole behind the kaiju, a large paw grabbed skywards and caught Rarity leg. The dog rose from the soil and quickly slapped an iron muzzle on Rarity before taking her with him down the chute. Spike ran over to the entrance of the hole. "Rarity! Oh no, not again!"
Destroyah grabbed the little dragon in its tail pincer and lifted him up onto its back.
"Looks like we have work to do!" The kaiju said in a pleased tone.
Destroyah spread its wings and descended down the hole, glided down into the dank and dark space, landed with a squishy thud on the soggy soil. Destroyah raised its head and looked around the dimly lit space. A vast array of tunnels greeted it. Destroyah lowered its head and closed its eyes. Every faint sound became sharper and more clear: the soft drip of water on the cave floor, the slightly gentle sound of rocks clacking together... the pawing of dirt. Destroyah's head snapped to one tunnel and it opened its eyes.
"This way."
The kaiju bolted down the corridor, losing visibility as they descended further into the Earth. Torches began to line the walls and metal doors soon joined. It was obviously a dungeon of a sort. The kaiju tore down the large doors, slashing through the metal with its massive claws. It took little effort to take them down. On the other side stood three dogs and Rarity, clearly in sight and at the perfect striking range. Destroyah sped up and slammed into the tall lanky one. In one fluid motion it wrapped its tail around the smaller one and tossed him into the largest dog, sending them both tumbling through the dirt. Destroyah sliced down laser horn, severing Rarity's muzzle in one clean cut. Destroyah removed Spike from its back and deposited him onto the white mare.
"Run, NOW!"
"What about you?"
"It doesn't matter. We will be fine. Now go!"
After a moment Rarity nodded and bolted down the corridor. One of the Diamond Dogs rose.
"Ugh my head! Guards!"
In a matter of seconds the hall was filled end-to-end with Diamond Dogs.
"Get him!"
The dogs surged forward to attack. They came up in a massive wave against the kaiju, scratching and clawing at Destroyah who struck back. Destroyah's claws tore into flesh and bone, spurting warm blood everywhere. The dogs, however, made little progress, even with their spears. The kaiju smirked, realizing its natural armor coating had returned to full strength. Dog-after-dog fell to the demon but they just kept coming. Destroyah flinched in pain as one of the dogs landed on its right wings, nearly snapping the still frail bone in half. Destroyah loosed its micro-oxygen spray, liquefying any nearby dog unlucky enough to get in its path and sending the rest jumping back as a wall of fire separated the two sides. On one side stood the towering kaiju, alone and single-handedly slaughtering and on the other, several dozen, if not more, Diamond Dogs prepared to give their lives to protect their tunnels. Destroyah roared to the sky, knowing victory was at hand.
"Come on you fools, come get some!" Dogs leaped over the flames and rushed the kaiju but were quickly cut off. The kaiju tore at them with tooth and claw, tearing the poor dogs to shreds. As their numbers lowered, the kaiju managed to latch it's pincer-like tail around their throat, draining them of every once of energy they were worth, leaving nothing but a shriveled corps to pile up with the rest. Laser horn slashed and micro-oxygen was loosed as the battle ranged and the Diamond Dogs could do nothing about it, their fates were sealed. It was a slaughter house and Destroyah was the butcher. Destroyah hacked and slashed at the swarming dogs. Bodies hit the floor at a rapid pace but still more came. The halls, now littered with corpses and painted red, were all but desecrated. Dogs fell decapitated, disemboweled, dismembered, liquefied, there was nothing the kaiju didn't do to their piteous forms. Soon their numbers began to thin for good but that didn't make the kaiju fight any nicer. The kaiju continued to fight at maximum potential and soon, all the guards were slaughtered. Destroyah stood there in all its glory, drenched in blood atop the bodies of the fallen. The demon scanned the floor to see corpses everywhere. Bones were left split and exposed, skulls were no longer recognizable, flesh was torn, liquefied and oozing blood, muscles were ruptured and hacked to pieces, bodies left dismembered and split in two. It was an egregious sight but to the kaiju, it was pure joy!
Destroyah stood alone as the undefeated champion of the tunnels but then, the three head Diamond Dogs came into view. The little one charged the kaiju, clearly not learning from the massive slaughter. Destroyah's reared back and its clawed hoof came crashing down on the puny mutt, shattering the dog's skull and adding a fresh splatter of blood to its blazing chest. Now it was time for the beefy dog to get mad. He moved forth and cracked his knuckles.
"You pay for that. He was good friend."
"Then join him."
Both the kaiju and the monster dog prepared themselves for battle, entering their own respected battle stances. The dog was in a semi charge, semi defensive pose preferring to be more well-rounded in battle. Destroyah stayed in a crouched and ready to lunge pose, wanting to go for a fast and easy kill. Destroyah bolted at the dog who merely sidestepped the kaiju. The dog reached out and grabbed Destroyah's tail but the blood coating its body allowed it to free itself without too much of a hassle. Destroyah brought up its clawed hoof but the dog caught it. Destroyah did the same with its other hoof but the dog caught it just the same. They were left in this 'grapple war' for a few seconds, each one pushing against the other, hoping to overpower its rival and topple him to the floor. Destroyah grew tired of this nonsense and latched its tail pincer onto the dogs ankle, surprising the strong mutt. Destroyah brought one of its wings up and jabbed the dog in the eye with its large wing claw. The dog put its paw to its face in pain. Destroyah took advantage of the mutt's unbalanced stance and lifted him clean off the ground with its tail, slugging him into the opposite wall with great force. Destroyah flew up and shoulder charged the dog, driving him further into the wall. Its massive shoulder spike tore deep into the dog's hide right behind its shoulder blade, cracking a few ribs but barely missing his internal organs. The dog cried out in pain but refused to give in. Destroyah reared up but was caught with a right hook to the jaw. The herculean dog pulled himself from the wall and punched the kaiju in the stomach before grabbing it by the shoulders and tossing it back into the same wall. Destroyah felt its already injured wings snap on the impact. Destroyah grunted in pain as the dog continued to punch it in its softer underbelly. Destroyah loosed a burst of micro-oxygen directly into the brute's face, singing his fur and tearing at his feeble skin, liquefying his already gored eye and the surrounding tissue. While the dog was distracted by the pain, Destroyah forced the mutt to the floor with a strong push, freeing himself in the same motion. The kaiju rose from the crumbled wall and stood proud, despite its right wing drooping to the floor, oozing green blood from the tear as well as lightly leaking down its lower jaw, mingling with the crimson life of its fallen foes. Destroyah charged the dog but was dropped to the floor by the slippery blood blanketing the floor. The kaiju slid past the dog, tearing out his large Achilles tendon with its massive central horn as it went by, forcing the mutt to drop to his knees. Destroyah rose ominously behind the dog as if an incarnation of Lucifer himself, red micro-oxygen energy crackled across its central horn as even more of the deadly bio-weapon leaked from the beasts savage jaws. Destroyah swung its head skywards in a bladed arc, landing a direct hit to the Diamond Dog's soft jugular, sending the slaughtered mutt flying across the room, blood spurring from the gaping wound. The lifeless body came crashing down with a heavy thud on the other side of the room but to the surviving Diamond Dog's horror, it had no head! Turning its attention back to Destroyah, the mutt watching in sheer horror as the head he was looking for fell into the kaiju's open palm... and it crushed it! Destroyah gave the survivor a devilish grin as it crashed the skull. It then walked calmly over the bodies strewn across the floor and stared down the lead and only surviving Diamond Dog.
"P-please don't k-kill me!"
The kaiju leaned in and said one thing "Run!" That was all the mutt had to hear. The dog bolted away, scampering down the corridor and deeper into the darkness. When the dog was out of sight, the real horror began. Gaping its jaws and extending its massive claws, the demonic kaiju crashed face-first into the nearest carcass, tearing out huge chunks of flesh with every gruesome bite. It continued to tear its way through the bodies, spreading even more blood across the dungeon. The fleeing dog could hear the dreaded sounds of its kin being devoured by the demon as it retreated and it nearly made the poor soul loose its lunch. Rarity and Spike, still waiting outside the hole, were astounded as the Diamond Dog rushed out of the hole and ran off without a word, more of a horrified scream. They starred curiously as the dog faded into the distance, then they stuck their heads down the shoot for any sights of Destroyah. There were none.
To be continued...
A night of rest and passion
I have decided to warn you when the clop pops up and ends for those against it.... Also this is the first one so be easy on me.
Chapter 09 - A Night of Rest and Passion
Destroyah quickly finished its gruesome meal, despite the sheer numbers it had to inhale. The demon cleared its nose and sniffed the air in the dank tunnel, separating the smell of clean, open air from the blood and gore of the tunnels. It moved away from the carnage around it and made its way out of the complex tunnel system, following the trail of carnage it left when entering. The kaiju recoiled at the sudden glare of the setting sun in its eyes as it emerged from the dark. It sat there on the horizon as if scolding it, as if it wanted to punish it for its crime against life. The demon didn't even notice the feeble presence of Rarity and Spike beside it. Destroyah trudged through the dirt of the wasteland, tired yet satisfied after its workout and large meal. It smirked and patted its filled stomach. After a bit more sniffing, it managed to find a nearby bubbling river. Looking left and right it saw no one, still not away of Rarity and Spike's appearance. It then lowered itself and dipped its lower jaw into the water, scooping up some of the liquids. Destroyah tilted its head back and let gravity do the work for it. It repeated the process a few times until it had washed down its large meal. It looked down and remembered the sticky blood covering its tough hide.
"We probably should take care of this before anyone sees."
"Oh my! Are you alright?!"
"Crud, you again..." The kaiju said in a soft voice to itself.
The kaiju looked up from the river and saw a white mare trotting over to it.
"Oh there was just SO much commotion and I feared the worst and... Oh my! Is that blood?! Are you hurt dear? And what is that green stuff?"
"That 'green stuff' is our blood."
"Wait?! If that's your blood then... Oh my!"
Rarity skittered back a bit, flicking her tail back and forth in nervousness.
"Well... you ought to get cleaned up before seeing the Princess. She will want to hear about this."
The kaiju sighed. "Very well. Allow us to clean up and then we shall tell Luna, ALONE."
"Princess Luna?"
"Yes. Why does Celestia always have to get the attention?"
Rarity shrank back from the agitated kaiju. "Well I guess not." After that Rarity ran off in the most lady-like way possible, Spike right on her tail. Destroyah eased itself into the water and groaning in pleasure as muscles unclenched, loosening in the clear water. Destroyah sank its head under and began rubbing off the dried blood. Bit-by-bit, the blood began to peel off and dissolved in the water, turning it into a crimson murky mess. Destroyah extended its wings under water and began to groom them, peeling blood off and mending some still-existent wounds. Once it was done, it burst out of the water and raised itself into the air with a flap of its newly-cleaned wings. Destroyah made its way towards Canterlot with great hast on its wings of death. It came closer and closer with every wing beat and soon made it to the castle. It wasn't too long before its claws hit cobblestone. Destroyah walked boldly up to the front door to be met by the same pair of guards as the first time. Still, they stopped it in the same manner.
"What is your purpose here ally of the elements?"
"We wish to meet with Luna."
"Very well, proceed."
The kaiju did such and brushed by the guards. After moving past the front gate and wall another few wing beats took it straight up to Luna's tower. It didn't want to chance a meeting with the eternal thorn in its side. Once on the balcony, it was greeted by a face full of deep blue curtains. The kaiju slid its muzzle across the cool fabric until it found the opening. At that point it slid its head through to see if anyone was inside. It was greeted by a glowing horn and an agitated Luna. Once she saw who it was however, she relaxed.
"Even in this age, it seems the usage of a door is a stretch."
The demonic pony gave her a large, fanged grin and slithered in. "Seems so. But we bring heavy news."
Luna suddenly grew serious. "Come. Talk with us then."
Luna trotted over to her bed and climbed up. Destroyah followed suit. Once it was on next to her, it laid its head down, enjoying the feel of the soft, cool fabric that made up her blanket. It could have be mistaken for a warm liquid. Still, the kaiju had to keep its mind focused.
"Luna, we might have committed what is called a crime, a major crime."
"Really? What hast thou done? Taken an apple? Accidentally tripped Granny Smith?"
"No. Allow us to elaborate."
Luna sat in silence, listening to what transpired during her absence. Not until it was finished with its tale did she speak.
"We slaughtered them all." Destroyah said, adding fake pain in its voice to try and gain her sympathy.
"Tis serious. The pack needed to be prosecuted for their crime but of that severity, we can't be sure. Didst thou feel regret?"
"Yes." Oh how that was a lie but she easily fell for the kaiju's facade. But telling that lie made it feel something, something it did not fully understand and so, it let the emotion go.
"The way we see it is thou saved friends and feel remorse so thou aren't really in the wrong."
Destroyah smiled and nuzzled her. "Thank you. Though we advise against telling your sister for now."
Luna smirked. "But of course."
Destroyah's deadly jaws where now inches from her muzzle. It leaned in even closer and nudged Luna under her chin, not fully realizing what it was doing. Upon understanding its actions, Destroyah shied away but it was already too late. Luna's eyelids drooped in a romantic and lustful manner. Destroyah attempted to ease away but Luna kept it near, totally forgetting about their previous conversation.
He had moved forward without either of them realizing it. Luna leaned forward and they met. Her tongue worked itself into his mouth and their tongues swirled around one another. Both had managed to lose themselves in the hot kiss. Destroyah was very much unfamiliar with the feeling in his chest. After a bit of mental pondering he had identified the alien feeling as lust.
(Beware he who enters this place! Doom and despair to all under 18! .... or just don't like Clop)
Luna leaned back from their kiss and sighed pleased.
"That was the best kiss we have had in over a millennium."
The red demon above her smirked. "Good. We have never actually pleased someone before."
He leaned in closer and ran his tongue up her jaw-line and licked around her ear. Working his way up he found her horn. He heard her breathe in sharply as his tongue found the base. He took it as a good thing and ran it up and down the horn and on occasion wrapped it around, is tongue working more like an actual serpent more than a simple muscle. He could feel a sparking energy on his tongue before a quick burst of light. Luna flopped over on the bed panting.
"Done already?"
The demon's tongue slid back into his mouth. But it did not sit there for long. He again lowered his head and began to nibble his way down her neck. His tongue drew invisible swirls down her body and her breathing increased just a touch more. He slid his head over toward the base of her wing. Said wing shot out and Luna gasped in pleasure. The kaiju grinned knowing she was as good as putty in his claws. Continuing to lick and nibble he made his way over to the other wing which also shot out when he hit the same point. He continued his way down and soon discovered her breasts. His tongue swirled circles around her fully erect nipples. Occasionally he would nip lightly with his razor teeth, squishing the soft sensitive flesh between the sharpened points. Luna was shivering in pleasure below him. He slid his head lower and spread her legs apart. He found her fur already matted down and a sweet scent rising up to greet his sensitive nose. Destroyah gazed on her swollen marehood for a moment before giving a tentative lick. He heard another sharp intake of breath. He grinned and slid his tongue into her. His tongue slid around inside her lapping at her walls and her juices. The alicorn above him moaned in pleasure. His tongue continued to explore her folds drinking her essence. Destroyah's tongue still persisted and he felt her walls clamp around his tongue and her legs draw upward pushing his head further into her.
Luna's head jerked back, her eyes clamped shut. " I- I'm cumming!"
Her crimson counterpart felt a sweet liquid onto his tongue and mouth. Destroyah licked her clean and retracted his head.
"Oh~ Tis was the best. Oh!"
Luna reacted to something new and warm poking her inner thigh. She looked down the length of her body to see the kaiju with his own length.
"But thou said thou didn't have either male nor female parts!"
The kaiju released a cackle. "If you had listened closely We said we could be either male or female."
Luna immediately scrambled to her hooves, her flank practically in his face. She reached a hoof back and lifted up her ethereal tail exposing her swollen lips that were starting to drool again. A large blush crawled its way across her muzzle.
"Then please take us! It has been a millennium sense anypony has loved us."
His only response was to oblige her. He climbed up onto her back effectively mounting her. Moving his hips her rubbed his member against her dripping marehood getting it as moist as possible. After a couple of tentative pokes Destroyah slid his member slowly into Luna's folds. He felt her clamp down on him immediately making both herself and the kaiju shutter in pleasure. Destroyah then began to move his hips pulling his member out slightly before ramming it straight back in. Luna groaned in pleasure and bucked to encourage the kaiju on her. She got what she wanted as he started to move in and out at a faster rate with a wet slurping sound.
"H-harder! Faster!"
He was only happy to oblige at this point ramming into her. With every thrust the tip of his member hit deep into her marehood touching her very womb. Each thrust brought a new cry of pleasure from the mare. Her muzzle was buried in the bed and her flank still raised high in the air being rammed into by the kaiju. Again her felt her clam onto her causing as similar feeling to arise in Destroyah. Luna came splattering her nethers and his with her sweet cum and Destroyah unloaded his hot gooey load into her. Luna slumped forward cum still slowly leaking out of her closed marehood and onto the sheets. He also hit the sheet happy with what had just transpired.
"You aren't done yet are you?"
Destroyah looked over to see Nightmare Moon laying on her side with her wings flared out and her hoof between her legs slowly moving up and down. She grinned and slid him onto his back. She raised her now wet hoof and began stroking his hardening shaft beginning to ooze precum. Nightmare chuckled and licked her lips before opening her mouth and taking the tip of his member into it. She began to bob her head up and down taking more and more of him. He shuttered every time she gulped and her throat tightened on him. Nightmare began working her head faster and faster her hooves moving up to cradle the base and stroke his balls. Destroyah bucked up deeper into her throat and came. Nightmare swallowed it all down with a grin cleaning him up. Still on his back she moved on him hovering over him and began to rub her moistening slit up and down his shaft before slamming over it. Nightmare jumped up and down on his member screaming in exctacy. As Nightmare bounced on him he carresed her breasts pinching her nipples fueling her pleasure. Nightmare came onto him before he blew his load into her again, the leftover leaking out of her plugged folds and onto him.
(Clop over!)
The night continued on into the early morning Nightmare and Luna taking turns with the kaiju until all where spent and there was nothing more left to give. Luna had fallen asleep burred into the blankets and Destroyah partially mounted on top of her. The blankets tousled and strewn in every direction both seeped their troubles away. That is until a shadow in the doorway loomed over them.

The kaiju looked up from the river and saw a white mare trotting over to it.
"Oh there was just SO much commotion and I feared the worst and... Oh my! Is that blood?! Are you hurt dear? And what is that green stuff?"
"That 'green stuff' is our blood."
"Wait?! If that's your blood then... Oh my!"
Rarity skittered back a bit, flicking her tail back and forth in nervousness.
"Well... you ought to get cleaned up before seeing the Princess. She will want to hear about this."
The kaiju sighed. "Very well. Allow us to clean up and then we shall tell Luna, ALONE."
"Princess Luna?"
"Yes. Why does Celestia always have to get the attention?"
Rarity shrank back from the agitated kaiju. "Well I guess not." After that Rarity ran off in the most lady-like way possible, Spike right on her tail. Destroyah eased itself into the water and groaning in pleasure as muscles unclenched, loosening in the clear water. Destroyah sank its head under and began rubbing off the dried blood. Bit-by-bit, the blood began to peel off and dissolved in the water, turning it into a crimson murky mess. Destroyah extended its wings under water and began to groom them, peeling blood off and mending some still-existent wounds. Once it was done, it burst out of the water and raised itself into the air with a flap of its newly-cleaned wings. Destroyah made its way towards Canterlot with great hast on its wings of death. It came closer and closer with every wing beat and soon made it to the castle. It wasn't too long before its claws hit cobblestone. Destroyah walked boldly up to the front door to be met by the same pair of guards as the first time. Still, they stopped it in the same manner.
"What is your purpose here ally of the elements?"
"We wish to meet with Luna."
"Very well, proceed."
The kaiju did such and brushed by the guards. After moving past the front gate and wall another few wing beats took it straight up to Luna's tower. It didn't want to chance a meeting with the eternal thorn in its side. Once on the balcony, it was greeted by a face full of deep blue curtains. The kaiju slid its muzzle across the cool fabric until it found the opening. At that point it slid its head through to see if anyone was inside. It was greeted by a glowing horn and an agitated Luna. Once she saw who it was however, she relaxed.
"Even in this age, it seems the usage of a door is a stretch."
The demonic pony gave her a large, fanged grin and slithered in. "Seems so. But we bring heavy news."
Luna suddenly grew serious. "Come. Talk with us then."
Luna trotted over to her bed and climbed up. Destroyah followed suit. Once it was on next to her, it laid its head down, enjoying the feel of the soft, cool fabric that made up her blanket. It could have be mistaken for a warm liquid. Still, the kaiju had to keep its mind focused.
"Luna, we might have committed what is called a crime, a major crime."
"Really? What hast thou done? Taken an apple? Accidentally tripped Granny Smith?"
"No. Allow us to elaborate."
Luna sat in silence, listening to what transpired during her absence. Not until it was finished with its tale did she speak.
"We slaughtered them all." Destroyah said, adding fake pain in its voice to try and gain her sympathy.
"Tis that serious. The pack needed to be prosecuted for their crime but of that severity, thy can't be sure. Did you feel regret?"
"Yes." Oh how that was a lie but she easily fell for the kaiju's facade. But telling that lie made it feel something, something it did not fully understand and so, it let the emotion go.
"The way we see it is thou saved friends and feel remorse so thou aren't really in the wrong."
Destroyah smiled and nuzzled her. "Thank you. Though we advise against telling your sister for now."
Luna smirked. "But of course."
Destroyah's deadly jaws where now inches from her muzzle. It leaned in even closer and nudged Luna under her chin, not fully realizing what it was doing. Upon understanding its actions, Destroyah shied away but it was already too late. Luna's eyelids drooped in a romantic and lustful manner. Destroyah attempted to ease away but Luna kept it near, totally forgetting about their previous conversation. She leaned in nice and slow and began to weave her hoof between the kaiju's legs. Destroyah, now severely shocked, pushed her hand away, trying to keep a positive attitude and not lash out at her, and spoke. "That is not possible. We are asexual and do not breed this way, remember?"
Luna instantly sank back, depressed and embarrassed by her rejected offering. Destroyah, realizing it had hurt her feelings, though she tried to hide it, came in close and tried to please her.
"But, we can still stay close."
Luna turned to face the kaiju as the smile returned to her face, brightening it right up. She huddled up with the kaiju and they remained like that throughout the night, embraced in joy. Their own embrace seemed to seeped their troubles away as if they were meant for each other. That is, until a shadow in the doorway loomed over them, a shadow that would mark the end of everything good in Equestria.
To be continued...
My editor BurningG-HellOnEarth on DA is strongly against any relationship for Destroyah seeing he IS death incarnate. Cant blame him but allas you the fans like it and I went through the trouble of writing it so I see NO point in deleting it but rather make an alternate scenario to make everyone happy.
I REALLY hope you dont like Diamond Tiara GAHAHHAHHHHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Chapter 10 - Battle Lines Drawn!
The kaiju stirred in its sleep with a pleased sigh, still at Luna's side. It squinted as morning light filtered in through the curtains. It cast its gaze downward as Luna awoke with a slight moan. All was well in this crazed world that is until Destroyah was lifted up and slammed into the wall. It came face-to-face with a furious sun goddess.
"Don't you lay another claw on my sister you monster!"
Luna bolted upright in bed. "Sister!"
"Don't move Luna! This creature killed a whole colony of Diamond Dogs. As foul as they are, they never committed murder!"
Destroyah expression of surprise withered to nothing, replaced by a devilish grin. It was time for this facade to end!
"Yes we killed them! We slaughtered the Griffon and the unicorn brothers too! They all fell at our hands and you know what? We would do it again! In fact, we WILL do it again! You mortals don't seem to get it! You still think that we are but a mere pony. We are more than that, much more than that! We are kaiju!"
"Kaiju or not, you will not be allowed to continue like this!"
"Ah, but that is were you are wrong! I have kept my true kaiju form concealed for you see, kaiju or not just mere monsters as we have said before, WE ARE GODS!!!"
Destroyah's massive draconic wings spread, blotting out the vey sun entering the room and plunging it into darkness. Destroyah rose to the roof as if the devil himself, latching its tail around Celestia's neck and tossing her into Luna with next-to-no effort.
"You fools call yourself rulers, the kaiju are the true rulers! Ahahahahaha!!!"
Destroyah ended its demonic laugh and crashed through Luna's beautiful winds, shattering the priceless glass and littering the floor with its remains. The guards were now aware to the kaiju's exiting but were still not informed of the severity of the situation. If Destroyah was left to its own devises, nothing would stand in its way! All life would perish!
Celestia pushed herself off of Luna and headed for the shattered window to see where the demon was heading, gritting her teeth and flaring her wings as she went.
"Damn it Luna! How could you let that monster, kaiju, whatever you want to call him, go?!"
"how?"
"What?! What do you mean?"
"How did you find out?"
"The element of generosity came to me late last night. It will have to be executed for three accounts of murder and one account of genocide. I am very disappointed in you Luna for not coming to me with this!"
"We did not know of the murders. But had this happened a millennium ago, thou would not have thought twice about eradicating the flea-bitten mutts!"
"But it is NOT a thousand years ago Luna! It will be executed. My word is law!"
"But thou cannot hurt it PRINCESS Celestia."
Celestia recoiled a bit at the amount of spite put into her title.
"Why not Luna?"
"We have feelings for the kaiju!"
"WHAT!? Of all creatures, you fall in love with that, that thing!?"
"Yes! We will not have it harmed! This is something both Nightmare and I agree on!"
Celestia paled a bit, she would not risk another war with Nightmare over a single creature, knowing that if Luna cooperated with her counterpart fully, there would be no stopping them!
"Fine, I will not kill it... but the creature must be hunted down and contained. It will be punished as Discord is until it has payed for its crimes!"
Luna nodded in agreement, knowing she probably couldn't bargain further. Both alicorn sisters stretched their wings and took off after the rouge demon. The sun warmed their backs as they pressed on, hoping they could catch the kaiju before it could cause any more harm, intentionally or not! As the princesses bolted over the Everfree, a head rose from the underbrush. Destroyah rose from the bushes and flew in the opposite direction, releasing a cackling laugh in triumph. It flew straight and true toward the sea. It wasn't disappointed to find a sea-side development area attached to a city dubbed 'Manehatten', a place very similar to its previous battle grounds in Tokyo Bay. Destroyah grinned and licked its deadly jaws.
"It time to REALLY get to work!"
A small orientation of its head also gave it another sight. In the distance, not far from the city, was a large building, an establishment the kaiju couldn't miss. It was a power plant!
"You fools even have a power plant, this is just too easy!"
It descended and spotted a banner on the building. "Equestria's FIFTH Power Plant, sponsored by Filthy Rich, you're spoiling me!"
If the kaiju tried to grin any wider, its face would have split in half. It was filled with pure joy, a sensation that would mean death and despair for all. It descended with great haste, splitting the cement below its clawed feet, and entered the plant. Now all it had to do was find the reactor and all of Equestria would fall into glorious chaos!
Diamond Tiara didn't want to admit it but she was lost. Silver Spoon trailing behind her. Soon the fillies came to a fork.
"Argh! Where is daddy!?"
"Perhaps we should like... split up?"
"Fine... You go that way Silver. I will go this way."
The fillies agreed on the course of action and did their traditional hoof-to-hoof, flank-to-flank dance. Once complete, they split up, Diamond Tiara taking the right path and Silver Spoon taking the right. After several minutes of searching, she simply couldn't find anypnoy. She sighed in defeat but her ears started to swivel. They picked up a strange clicking noise. It sounded like the Licker in Resident Pony 5. Diamond Tiara turned around and jumped, seeing Destroyah and its claws on the tiled floor.
"Oh eeew its you! What do you want blank-flank?"
Destroyah snickered at her lack of fear for it was clear that murder was present in its eyes. "Blank-flank eh? Why would we need such a ridiculous mark on our side when I can have the power to control all?!"
The demon's head lashed forward and crunched down on the pony's silver tiara spiced with diamonds, tearing it clean off her head and ripping it to shreds.
"Eek! Hey! That was a gift from daddy! You cant do that! My daddy is rich and he can make life hell for you! Silver Spoon!"
"So the filly wants to talk of hell, hmm?! You know nothing of the meaning of that word! This is what it truly means to be in HELL!"
Destroyah reared back and prepared to crush the young pony but she jumped back, avoided the cement-bursting blow. Diamond Tiara darted back, trying to avoid the kaiju but it was too quick. Raising itself from the crater it created, the beast loosed its micro-oxygen spray onto the poor filly, liquefying her rear right leg and sending her toppling to the ground in pain. Th kaiju killer then calmly approached her crippled form, knowing there was nothing she could do to escape. As it approached, it spit a strange object from its mouth which cracked in two when landing on the floor before Diamond Tiara. She recognized the cracked object. "Silver Spoon's glasses!" She looked up in sheer horror at the demon towering before her.
"See, now THIS IS HELL!" Destroyah lashed out at her, sinking its teeth deep into her stomach and tearing through her soft flesh. Her stomach quickly gave in and her internal organs came spewing out of her body with a burst of warm blood. The kaiju backed away and licked the blood from its face as it starred down on her, pleased to see her screaming form. Her pain was its joy! She screamed out in utter agony but was cut off as the kaiju latched it's jaws around her neck and sank in deep, closing her wind pipe but making sure not to tear it in two; it wanted her to know what hell was truly like! With her neck torn, her right rear leg liquefied and her innards laying before her, the pony was all but in good shape. Death began to creep up on the young filly but Destroyah wasn't going to let it end that quickly, their must be pain, excruciating pain! She was already in enough but the kaiju believing more was in order! Sinking its teeth deep into her veins, the kaiju injected its bio weapon into her, tearing another large hole in her side as it raised its head to watch in sheer pleasure as she screamed out as loud as she could. The bio-weapon instantly took effect and began liquefying her form and she could feel every scratch! Here cries were loud and piteous but they were short-lived as her vocal cords liquefied along with the rest of her body. Her life force drained by the demon who accepted the gift with open jaws. The kaiju finished its second meal and continuing through the twisted corridors, looking for anything that might even resemble a nuclear reactor. After a few more minutes of searching, the kaiju grew tired of this pathetic search method. The kaiju grimaced and decided that an areal approach would yield better results. Rather than wasting time finding its way to an exit, it simply burst out of a window, letting its firm natural armor stay the glass, caring little for the collateral damage for this was just the beginning! It landed with a muffled thud in the grass outside the establishment. Snorting, it looked back at the building.
"You are hereby under arrest in the name of... well, me!"
Destroyah turned, snarling at its new alicorn visitors. White energy flickered in its jaws. Celestia readied her horn which blazed with solar energy. Destroyah reared and charged the princess, murder clearly visible in its eyes. Celestia loosed a ray of energy from her horn which hit Destroyah's hind legs and glued the kaiju in place. It reared up, shrieking in rage as stone crawled up its legs and torso. Its flared wings froze in place as did its menacing snarl. Celestia ruffled her wings.
"Well that was easy."
Celestia trotted up to the statue and just bairly touched it before a loud resonating cracking sound was heard. Celestia jumped back, shocked and fearful. Cracks bloomed on the floral pattern on the kaiju's chest, but then they stopped. Celestia stood waiting for something to happen but nothing else did. She readied another spell to mend the statue but as she did so a hissing sound was heard. Red micro-oxygen energy was being released from the cracks in the statue which soon burst apart, leaving only a cloud or red dust to be enveloped by the Earth. After a few moments the ground shook so violently Celestia was forced to take to the air. As she did so a large red claw broke through the soil right where she was standing. Several more massive claws dug their way frantically to the surface. Several hundred golden evil eyes blinked to life as the many heads of the aggregate crablettes of Destroyah rose to the surface. Their shrieks struck fear into all that could hear them, a sound no pony had ever experienced, one that market the end of Equestrian civilization. The demonic calls were soon answered by the war cry, the horn of battle. In the distance stood the royal guard lead by Luna in Nightmare's battle armor. Celestia retreated to the equestrian front lines were Luna was poised for battle.
"You handle them, I am about to do something probably viewed as stupid."
"What ist thou planning sister?"
"I plan on having a chat with Discord."
To be continued...
Chapter 11 - We are Destroyah
Celestia felt bad leaving her men to the destructive demonic beasts but she also knew they where in capable hooves, being led by Luna and Shining Armor. Under her wing power, she shot straight and true to Canterlot. Once in the mountainside city, she entered her personal bed chambers via her balcony, not wasting any time at the door. With great haste she moved over to a rather large set of golden double doors and opened the locks. They swung open lazily revealing a rather terrified statue of a Draconequus. Once revealed, he gave a dark chuckle, his chest illuminating with purple energy with every noise.
"I saw what your sister tried to do last night!"
"Ugh. Stop messing around Discord!"
"Why? It was hilarious!!!"
"Enough with your nonsense! You are more ancient than I..."
"Great, first you trap me in stone and now you call me old!"
"... I was going to say that you are also wiser than I shall ever be!"
"That's better!"
"Don't push it. *Sigh* I need your help."
Despite the statue's terrified expression, she could almost see the smile on his face as she said that.
"Discord, there is a beast on the loose. Do you know of it?"
"The Destroyer? Yes I do!"
"Good. Now, tell me everything you know of it."
"Tsk tsk. Such a big demand requires a massive price!"
"What could you possibly want Discord?"
"I knew your sister was the smarter one, I want my freedom of course!"
"You know I cant give you that Discord."
"Ah, but you have no choice Celestia! I have vital information of this death god and you are running out of time! The more it fights and destroys, the more chaos it spreads, the easier it will be to free myself! But if you free me now, I won't attack you during this hour of crisis."
"Like I would believe your lies Discord!"
Celestia blinked and suddenly the statue was two inches from her muzzle.
"Why would I lie when the truth hurts so much more? Now, FREE ME!"
"Never!"
Celestia slid the statue back into the room.
"Forget you! I will have the element bearers deal with the beast! You stay put!"
"Like I have a choice... but just remember I told you so!"
Celestia re-locked the massive golden doors as her heart sunk. She feared that what Discord was say was true and that perhaps the best option would be to free the bearer of chaos.
"Maybe what Discord said is true, maybe we can't stop it... No, that is impossible! The elements will take care of it!"
Reassuring herself with this though, she sent a message to the element bearers, then departed for Ponyville. She soon landed gracefully at Twilight's library and was greeted by six bewildered ponies.
"Princess Celestia! What is going on?"
"We are at war Twilight."
"War?!"
"Yes, your 'friend' is on a bloodthirsty rampage and is currently fighting the royal guard. Bring the elements, we must make haste!"
"But why are the elements needed?"
"I used a stone imprisonment spell on it, much like Discord's, but the creature broke out almost immediately!"
"Oh my... to think it can possibly be that strong! Very well, lets go!"
The battle was like a scene straight from a painting kept by the devil himself. The swarm of creatures smashed into the front lines of armored ponies, tearing them apart with ease. Their flailing spiked limbs on their backs impaled the ponies, ripping through the flimsy metal armor. Loosing their micro-oxygen spray, they liquefied the guards and their armor, tearing away at wave-after-wave of soldiers. The kaiju spawn where too massive, the earth pony guards where simply flattened and trampled by the spiked legs of the Destroyah crabletts. A few of the guards were lucky enough to find a hole in the creature's defenses but even then, the ponies were not able to fully subdue the demons. They continued to tear at the guard like rabid wolves, tearing into their soft flesh, ripping through their metal coatings and even crunching through their brittle bone. The crablettes had pushed the ponies all the way into the port city down from the power plant, slaughtering many on their way. The guards were defenseless against them until Luna and Shining Armor joined the fray. Shining's shield spells pushed the kaiju back. They tried to force their way through the shield, but the moment one shattered, another was cast. Meanwhile, Luna had taken to the skies, blasting the aggregates with her dark magic. Finally it seemed the front was getting some leverage over the kaiju, an apparent sight as the demons retreated. The group started to cheer and give chase but that feeling of joy soon faded, replaced by a feeling of absolute dread which washed over them like an icy blanket that froze them in place. The crablettes joined together at the edge of the city in a great flash of light. Lightning crackled down and an explosion rocked the city. Looming over them, screeching in anger, stood a massive aggregate Destroyah. It screamed out in rage and loosed a small burst of its new deep purple breath weapon into the sky. The oxygen-destroyer rained down and blasted the remaining soldiers to nothing. Not even their armor coatings remained! The demon, towering over any survivor, slashed foreword, knocking over several buildings in the process. Destroyah raged but its attention was soon stolen by a certain midnight alicorn flying overhead, raining energy blasts on its armored head. It did next to nothing against its crustacious armor but it was still irritating. As she circled the kaiju, its rage continued to increase; it had soon had enough! Dissolving again into its micro-forms to regroup, Destroyah emerged in its flying form and rushed the startled Luna. She darted away at her top speed by the sheer size of the kaiju made it hard to avoid. The flying demon lashed out at her several times but she managed to just barely evade the blows. It loose its micro-oxygen spray at her, attempting to blast the alicorn out of the sky but she still managed to evade. However, her high-speed maneuvers soon began to take their tole and Luna began to tire as sweat began to rapidly drip from her pours. The kaiju exploiting the opportunity and rushed right up to greet Luna's struggling form. Gaping its jaws, it was within meters of swallowing her whole. Luckily for the alicorn, the kaiju was knocked clean out of the sky and slammed into the ground by some ungodly force. Celestia descended, huffing and sweating herself due to the great expense of magic she was forced to use. She flew over to the breathless Luna as the kaiju rose, hissing and growing as it did, reforming into its aggregate form.
'It seems that even now, we are not at full strength. There is no way such a pathetic blow would have taken us out of the sky when Godzilla was still on the field... But that was long ago, now it is time for your worthless souls to DIE!!!'
"Do not fret sister. The elements are here."
Celestia used her magic one more time and teleported the elements and their bearers to the scene. The six ponies gaped at the massive creature looming over them. Destroyah shrieked at them, its very breath pushing them back. However, the elements accepted the kaiju's deadly challenge. They began to glow with their own energies, preparing for a massive strike. Destroyah's fang-filled maw began to glow as well with its micro-oxygen weapon. The elements unleashed their power and Destroyah did the same, their beams clashing in a massive array of flying colors. The beams were continuously toggled, neither side seeming to get the edge on the other. Soon, however, the elements began to slowly push the kaiju's beam back. Destroyah, refusing to give in that easily, grunted in frustration and forced more power into its beam. Destroyah soon began to regain ground and further push the elements back. Their beams were almost at their faces as the kaiju grinned in victor but Celestia and her sister Luna were not about to let the kaiju win. Giving their remaining energy to the elements, the royal worriers began to win! Forcing more-and-more upon the kaiju, it soon realized, reluctantly, that victory was no longer at hand. Quickly changing forms, Destroyah attempted to evade the blow but failed. As it transformed, the beams struck the kaiju and sent it crashing back into the nuclear power plant, triggering the collapse of the building. Flames consumed the masses of rubble as the smoke stacks stood silent as ever, surviving towers amongst the ruins of a fallen city. Twilight inched forward curious and sounding a bit like Fluttershy.
"I-is he d-dead?"
"No."
Luna's voice caused everyone to look at her as she stared ahead at the ruins of the plant.
"It is still alive. We can sense its presence. Tis gathering, regrouping for another attack."
To be continued...
The demons are gathered (Re-write)
You see it has come to my attention that some of you are displeased with my idea of Spike becoming Godzilla so with the help of my psychotic editor there has been a few changes and a massive fight! Oh and some of you might hate me but someone get whacked.
Chapter 12 - The Demons Gather
"What should we do sister?!"
"What did Discord say?"
"He withheld information saying that he needed freedom in order to relinquish his knowledge. He said if I didn't, the chaos that this monster will cause would be more than enough to free him at any rate."
"Then we set him free."
"What!? Are you mad!?"
"Nay sister! We have not gone insane! Didst thou' see how little it was perturbed by the Elements?! Even now as we speak the beast grows stronger, reforming for another assault! Who knows how powerful it may become!"
Celestia realized the gravity of the situation.
"Very well, it will be as you say. Just pray Discord doesn't help that thing."
"Don't worry sister, tis not his way."
Celestia smiled, begging that what she said was true and spread her wings.
"Stay here dear sister and don't do anything reckless or stupid while I'm gone! I will awaken the Draconequus."
With a few pumps of her wings the Princess was airborne and she was once again on her way to Canterlot. She reached her bedchambers with ease and opened the golden doors quickly, not wanting to waste any time. Before her stood Discord, entombed as usual and as still as ever.
"Alright Discord, I shall free you but only, and I mean ONLY on two conditions. One: you must tell me everything you know about this new terror that we face and offer your aid in the battle to stop it. Two: you are forbidden from causing any sort of chaos on any level while you are liberated, this monster has caused enough on its own."
"Oh such a sour puss. Very well, but since I can't cause chaos here, I would like to have my own city, one that I can rule freely and do whatever I want with!"
"It is done, now tell me about the beast."
"I hold you to your word former Element of Honesty. Now where were we? Ah yes, the Destroyer! Back in ancient times, billions of years ago, long before even I existed, the world was a very different place. Life was small and barely taking hold in the shallow waters forming on this hardly hospitable planet. Amongst the primordial soup of primitive life forms, a predator was born, an apex predator. Only less than a millimeter across, this beast and the first of the crustaceans was enormous compared to its rivals and prey alike. This thing was Destroyah but not as we know it today. Back then, it was merely a carnivorous being which longed to survive and spread its genes to the next generation but then, something happened! As it always does, the world changed! Creatures evolved and grew, water levels rose and the toxicity of the air thinned; life was beginning to take grow! Destroyah refused to go extinct despite its changing surroundings. The creatures worked as one, burrowed into the earth, tunneling deep to escape the changing world. For centuries this colony of micro organisms were left in a state of slumber, entombed in the earth for billions of years! While they slept, the Earth continued to change: creatures dominated and went extinct, new powers rose and fell and the cycle of life continued. However, somewhere down the line a new type of creature was born, one of superior intellect and unimaginable power. The first man was born. Though there beginnings were humble, starting out as mere upright, hairy primates, they continued to evolve and change, adapting to their surroundings. However, soon they grew beyond just adapting, they wanted to CONTROL! They became a world superpower, unrivaled by any other species! Their knowledge and intellect grew exponentially but, instead of using it for good, to benefit this planet, they used their resources for evil! They became immeasurably powerful, using their strengths and might to destroy and conquer, heavily abusing their knowledge for their own benefit. One man, Dr. Daisuke Serizawa, created a weapon so powerful that no living organism could survive its terror! He created the Oxygen Destroyer. This monstrosity was not just any weapon of mass destruction, this was a bio-weapon that worked at the molecular level, stripping its victims of oxygen and asphyxiating them, then liquefying their flesh, leaving only dreaded skeletons of what used to be a vivid ecosystem."
Celestia was horrified by this ghastly machine Discord spoke of but she still listened intently, not wanting to forget a single detail.
"Now, when man abused their power, the Earth refused to die quietly, using their own arrogance against them and birthing creatures of unimaginable power. The kaiju were born. Her champion creation, created during bomb tests of Wold War II, was a terrifying horror that struck fear into all that so much as spoke its name. The beast was called Gojira. It was said the monster was infallible, indestructible and immortal. There was nothing any of the human's fire power, no matter how strong, could do to the beast. Their greatest weapon at the time, the nuclear bomb, only made the monster stronger since it was birthed from that very horror. However, when Serizawa's weapon was created, it was the only machine capable of deafening him but Serizawa worried that its power would be abused. Destroying his research and sacrificing himself, Serizawa unleashed his bio-weapon upon Godzilla, destroying the beast and taking his deadly weapon to the grave with him. Unfortunately, Godzilla was never totally defeated and the monster regenerated and continued to destroy Japan for decades afterwards. However, that was not the only thing the Oxygen Destroyer managed to achieve. Though Serizawa was killed and his weapon lost with no means of recreating it, which was his death wish, it created something much worse. The micro organisms in the soil were mutated by the deadly compounds, absorbing their energy to become the beast you know today. In 1996, more than 40 years after the Oxygen Destroyer was unleashed, the world was in a crisis. Godzilla had absorbed all the energy of several of his foes: Rodan, Specagodzilla, ..."
"Wait! So you are saying there are more of these things besides Gojira and Destroyah?!" Cilestia asked, terrified by what she heard.
"Oh you have no idea! There were more of these creatures than ponies in Equastria! Now, can I continue uninterrupted?!"
"Yes, sorry, please continue."
"...... great I lost my train of thought, have a medal, have two."
Said awards popped out of thin air and landed around Celestia's neck.
"Where was I again .... Ah yes! As I was saying, Gojira, also called Godzilla had become even more powerful than before, on the verge of becoming a god but these powers were not granted for free, his heart was dying. Godzilla had absorbed so much energy that his heart, a nuclear reactor in essence, couldn't take it and began to fail. His body raged and boiled, growing blazing red marks across his scaly hide that glowed with the intensity of a sun! His nuclear breath must have tripled in strength, easily able to shatter entire cities and pummel kaiju far larger than himself. He had absorbed so much nuclear energy that man feared what would happen when his heart finally did give in. The answer, an explosion that would have wiped out all life on Earth and made the surface sterile for decades, maybe even centuries to come! Man refused to go down quietly and dispatch a specially-designed freezer unit called the Super X III. This aircraft was armed with a menagerie of freezer masers and cadmium missiles. It was the perfect force to take down the burning giant. However, this was not the only threat humanity faced. One man had discovered the secrets of the Oxygen Destroyer, something Serizawa wanted so badly to never be found. Micro oxygen, extremely dense oxygen atoms, was the key and with this, humanity wished to solve many of their problem but, they had little idea of what this deadly bio weapon could truly do. G-Force, AKA Godzilla Force, a special team designed specifically to study Godzilla, had found some peculiar Precambrian soil samples they wanted to test. However, soil was not the only thing present in this sample. After billions of years of waiting, Destroyah finally emerged, ready to tackle anything this new world could throw at it with its new found micro oxygen powers! These creatures were now highly adaptable and able to survive in any environment that contained oxygen and our oxygen-rich atmosphere was a perfect breeding ground! Easily escaping its test-tube containment, the deadly microbe entered a nearby aquarium. It was still an expert swimmer and easy weaver it's way through the filtration system and into the tanks. Fish after fish fell as the assassin's deadly bio weapon tore at their flesh, ripping it straight from the bone!"
Celestia was silent, she couldn't believe a creature of such pure evil could ever exist.
"The single Destroyah called out to the rest of its hibernating kin and they all rose from the earth, gaining energy from the air and growing, combining with others of their own species to form even larger units. Destroyah's new form was only the size of a man but this was much larger than the original micro organisms. Soon tens, if not hundreds, of these 'aggregate' forms emerged and ran a muck in the city. The JSDF, AKA the Japanese Self Defense Force, dispatched a team to stop them but with little knowledge of the creatures, they were at a major loss. Clearly outmatch, the men tried desperately to penetrate their tough hide with their bullets with little success. These creatures were no longer limited to releasing small amount of micro oxygen to liquefy small creatures, they were now able to condense this power into a single beam with an even deadlier effect! Sound familiar?"
"Yes, far too much."
"Ahaha!!! Good ol' Destroyah!"
"You're not helping!"
"Haha!!! Sorry about that! Now, where was I?! Ah yes, many brave men fell to the creature's micro oxygen spray as it was called but they were able to destroy a few of them, sending the rest into hiding for the time being. But the monsters wouldn't stay quiet for long! Fearing the threat these creatures could have upon humanity, the JSDF began researching the creatures while they were inactive, using whatever means they could to discover their secrets. They found that cold to the extreme was their weakness. However, they realized this fact a little too late, the creatures had already resurfaced! They converged on a single point and were met by freezer weapon-equipped maser tanks. Both sides were shooting to kill but, the overwhelming freezer weapons soon got the best of the biological weapons. The creatures soon realized they couldn't survive alone and so, once again, they merged! This new form was similar in appearance to its previous form but much, much bigger! It was easily able to take the small freezers beams and it trampled their forces BUT, it was not done evolving! The creature quickly learned its land form was too slow to demolish the city any time soon so it reassembled into a hideous airborne beast of equal size yet even more grotesque appearance! This new form easily flew across the entirety of the city, leveling buildings and sucking the life force out of anything unlucky enough to get in the way of its deadly micro-oxygen beam. Meanwhile, the situation with Burning Godzilla, as he was named, was not improving. Godzilla had quickly reheated and melted away the ice brought down on him by Super X III! The explosion was averted but now, an even greater apocalypse was at hand, meltdown! This disaster would be far worse than a nuclear explosion! Godzilla's heart would fail at 1200 digress Celsius and its burning entity would melt straight through the Earth, not only ending its own life and all other life on Earth, but destroying the planet as well! This crisis had to be averted but what could man do, if they tried to attack the creature with conventional weapons, they could trigger the meltdown instantly! With only days to work, they had to act fast! Thoughts of recreating the Oxygen Destroyer were tossed around but that weapon had so much power, they were cautions around its building. However, they soon discovered they didn't have to, a creature of similar power already existed, Destroyah! They needed Godzilla to fight Destroyah but how were they going to convince the dying monster to return to Tokyo you may ask?! With his son! Nuclear testing near abandon islands around the Japanese mainlands caused Godzilla's son to mutate, increasing his growth rate and turning him into Godzilla Jr. This kaiju was much calmer than its father, only wanting to return to the place of its birth but the problem was, Godzilla was following him! They had to redirect the youngster to avert the end of the world! Reluctantly, two psychics named Miki Saegusa and Meru Ozawa changed Jr.'s course and sent him to Tokyo. The young kaiju was faced with the most deadly opponent he had ever battled and it was not even fully evolved! Destroyah quickly pummeled Godzilla Jr. into nearby buildings several times before Jr. retaliated with a blast of his atomic breath, sending the demon plummeting to earth. Destroyah was unfazed and quickly reformed back into its aggregate form, attacking Jr. on foot. The two were fairly matched but Jr. had less experience in battle and was quickly overpowered again. Destroyah pinned the younger to the ground with its body and injected its deadly bio weapon into his neck. Jr. raged and pushed the monster off with great force. Destroyah tried to retreat into the skies as his flying form but was pummeled into a nearby power plant by Jr. powerful nuclear blast. The building exploded and fires raged but there was no sign of Destroyah anywhere. Night fell and Godzilla arrived at shore. He quickly stomped over to his son and the two saurians began to converse. Sadly, their chat was short lived! For out of the rubble and flames of the demolished power plant rose the final form of Destroyah, a beast that stuck fear into the very heart of the devil himself! Thi..."
"Oh Faust!"
"What? What is it?! You didn't push Destroyah into Equestria's power plant, did you?!"
Celestia just stood their with an embarrassed and fearful look on her face.
"Oh boy! It looks like you screwed us all, didn't you?!"
"We'll, how was I supposed to know that, that... that monster feasts on nuclear radiation?!"
"All kaiju do, hello?!"
"Well, maybe it you had told me this sooner, it would not have come to be!"
"Alright, alright! Arguing over what has been done already won't solve anything! Right now, we need to get to that power plant!"
"Right!" Celestia said as she spread her wings and prepared to take off but before she did, she looked back to see Discord, still entombed by her curse and motionless.
"Now for your end of the bargain?!"
"Very well, I grant you your freedom."
"Finally!"
"Don't push you luck!"
"See, now that's why you don't have a coltfriend!"
"Oh quiet you!"
Celestia's horn touched Discord's forehead and the stone melted off of the Draconequus. As the enchantment slowly faded Discord wiggled around a bit, popping his joints for the first time in years.
"Ah, much better!"
Discord pulled out a paper hat from thin air and placed it on his head. He looked over at Celestia and poked her nose with his paw.
"What was that for?!"
"What do you think? It had to be done, now lets be off! There is no time to waste!"
"Right!"
Both the alicorn and the draconequus spread their wings and took off, heading in the same direction as Celestia originally came. It wasn't long before they made it again to the flaming power plant. Discord pulled out a rather large stick topped with a marshmallow and held it over the roaring flames.
"Well Discord, what is your plan?"
Discord sighed and discarded the stick after popping the overly burnt marshmallow in his mouth.
"You fee mah pfan... " Discord held up a talon indicating they should wait till he was done chewing. The draconequus swallowed his charred treat and resumed talking.
"As I was saying. My plan involves him." Discord slid his arm into a tree trunk and pulled out a trembling Spike. Twilight snorted and hoofed the ground.
"You wont lay a finger on him!"
"Please, Twilight, I have no intention of the thing. But IT might!"
Discord jabbed a thumb at the ruins of the plant.
"Just use the elements oh him to give em' a boost!"
"Will that work? It doesn't really make sen- ... You know what, I'm not going to question you."
Discord chuckled and patted Celestia's head. "Now ya learn!"
"Alright I guess its worth a shot."
Twilight and her friends backed up, all facing Spike.
"W-wait you guys aren't serious are you?!"
"Spike you are the only one that can do this! Though you have no kaiju blood running through your veins, you are a dragon, and that's the closest thing we got!"
"Well I suppose ... will it hurt?"
Discord grinned. "Most likely! Fire at will girls!"
Spike was zapped by the elements and he began to grow. Muscles appeared rippling under his thickening scales. Spines grew and claws sharpened. Spike was now full size, towering over the ponies but he was still quite short compared to Destroyah's earlier aggregate form. Discord held up a paw filled with red flames and blasted Spike with it. Spike grew again. His Purple scales sharpened even further and thickened into a strong hide. His legs rippled and gained more mass, extending in length as his arms became slightly stumpy as he returned to a quadrupedal stance. The thorns running across his spine extended into deadly daggers. Spike's jaws narrowed and filled with serrated fangs. His skull was now much long and more of a triangular shape with long crest thorns jutting out of the rear. His once green eyes where now ablaze in an orange and red color as they became slit and animalistic. His tail lengthened into a curling whip with vicious spines poking out from every direction. His three-toed feet grew as well while his toes themselves lengthened into massive talons. His wings extended, growing tremendously as his fingers extended to form great draconic wings. The newly made skin that created the actual wings were strong and free of tears. Three of his five fingers on each hand elongated to form the constitution of the wings while the remaining two digits became sharpened talon. He was now a true dragon. Spike roared to the heavens, loosing his fiery breath as he did so. However, his call was drowned out by a deafening explosion as the wrecked power plant detonated. Flames licked the very sky and a red ripple erupted from the rubble, blasting down whatever remained of the plant and any structure near it. But it did not stop there! The flames spread across the nearby country, entrapping the crumbled city in a ring of fire. Spike spread his wings and leaped over the towering flames, crashing down on the rubble of the chard city. He snarled at the roaring flames were the power plant used to be, knowing that Destroyah was still in there. He was confident of his victory and prepared to face any challenge the demon could throw at him.
Then, out of the flames, two enormous draconic wings spread into the sky, clocked in blazing micro-oxygen energy. Spike's courage quickly melted away, replaced by fear. Each of Destroyah's monstrous wings were clearly larger than Spike's entire body, despite his growth spurt! Soon, the flames surrounding the collapsed plant faded, absorbed by the demonic kaiju as it finally revealed itself. Raising its head to the sky, Destroyah roared out to the heavens as the Earth below it trembled. Destroyah's final form was complete and more demonic than ever! Its hideous form was enough to scare even the boldest of ponies off and then there was his sheer power!
"Ooh, he looks even sicker in person! Me next to soak in radiation, me next!" Discord shouted out, excited by the appearance of the kaiju's final form. Celestia smashed her elbow into his side and said "You're not helping! Remember which side you are on!"
"Relax, relax! I was only kidding!"
Spike could sense the overwhelming power radiating from the creatures ghastly body; it was unimaginable! Though intimidated, Spike refused to let his friends down! Roaring to his new opponent, Spike lunged at Destroyah, claws and teeth extended, ready to kill. Destroyah simply chuckled as the pathetic dragon crashed into its torso, slashing left and right at the floral pattern upon its chest. Spike slashed repetitively at Destroyah's hide but got no where, his claws couldn't penetrate! Destroyah's sinister snarl rose through the air as it crashed its clawed hand on Spike's neck, yanking him off its body and tossing him to the floor.
"No!!!" Twilight cried out, fearful for Spike's life.
Destroyah raised its right foot and prepared to crush Spike's throat but the dragon's reflexes were quick and he managed to avoid the blow. However, the stop was so powerful, it pummeled Spike back to the floor! Destroyah marched on towards the dragon with slaughter in its eyes but Spike was not phased! He shot off his a fiery ball of flames at Destroyah's face, stunning the creature just long enough for him to strike again. Spike rushed up from the ground and attacked Destroyah's face while it was still confused, hoping that that part of the demon's body would be softer and easier to penetrate. Spike racked at Destroyah's face but still had no success penetrating its thorny, thick hide. Destroyah slashed at the dragon with his hands, try to get the slithering annoyance off his face. Just one false move and Spike's hind leg was in Destroyah's hand. The demon crashed Spike to the floor with great force, then swung him around and tossed him across the city. Spike's battered body bounced up and down as if shot away from the kaiju, finally coming to a haunt several miles away.
"No, my Spike!!!" Twilight was reduced to tears as she watched her beloved Spike tumble across the rough floor, beaten and battered by the kaiju of death.
Spike was now severely hurt and in need of medical care but there was nothing anyone could do or him now, he had to press on! Spike rose himself slowly, barely able to stand up and tried to face his foe. Destroyah roared at its beaten challenger and charged Spike, rushing towards him with heavy strides. Destroyah crashed its head down, hoping to impale Spike but the dragon evaded the blow and struck at Destroyah's neck, praying that his long fangs would do the trick. Destroyah raised himself and stretched his arms back, trying to get rid of the pestering dragon. Finally, Destroyah dropped his claws as his tail coiled, cocking into a strike position. Destroyah's crescent tale lashed out at Spike, latching onto his neck and smashing him to the floor. Soon the kaiju's tail began to shine as it started draining the life force of Spike. However, it was not done with Spike just yet! Destroyah's tail swiveled back and forth, smashing Spike left and right into the ground with massive amounts of force. Finally Destroyah let go, smashing Spike into a crater behind before doing so. At this point, Twilight was bawling uncontrollably, she couldn't understand how a creature could be so cruel, especially to her Spike.
All of the ponies standing by were so drawn into the battle, they took little notice to the peculiar events taking place at the power plant.
Destroyah turned to see his foe at the bottom of a great crater before him, utterly defeated. Destroyah's heartless eyes gazed upon Spike's limp body as its tail reach out to latch onto Spike's neck. However, Spike opened his slight eye just in time and chomped down on the kaiju's tail! Destroyah, stunned and confused, soon turned its emotions to rage as it quickly turn about and tossed Spike into the horizon. Twilight screamed at the sight of this, fearing the death of her beloved assistant. The others tried to comfort her but their own sorrows for poor Spike were also growing. Only Discord stood there, unfazed and eager to see the outcomes of this 'entertaining' battle.
"Come on you coward! Come back and fight like a dragon!"
"You insensitive fool, look at the horrors that beast has caused and yet you applaud it?!" Celestia was clearly enraged by Discord's insensitive behavior.
"What, can't I have some entertainment?!"
"This is not entertainment, this is murder!"
"Call it what you want, it's still fun to watch.."
Celestia was aghast to Discord's comment but she knew there was nothing she could do about it so she returned to comfort Twilight, hoping that Spike was still alive and wise enough to stay away.
Destroyah roared to the skies, believing it was victorious. But then, out of the sun, Spike shot through the sky, loosing his flaming breath as he began to twirl, turning into a blazing ball of fire hurdling straight for Destroyah! The demon kaiju loved to torment its prey but this pathetic maggot was now getting in its nerves, this had to end! Destroyah was done with non-fatal attacks, it was going to end that dragon! Charging laser horn, its central horn blazed with crimson micro-oxygen energy as it prepared for impact. Spike screamed out as his foe just before the two met with a massive explosion. All the ponies, and Discord as well, store in complete awe at the sheer bower of the collision, waiting to see the outcome. Smoke shaded the warriors as Twilight trembled. Soon the smoke cleared and Twilight's fears were proven. Destroyah stood there, motionless, with Spike's body slumped over its head. Destroyah then began to move, lowered its head and pulling Spike's lifeless body off its central horn, letting it crash to the ground with a mighty thud. Destroyah roared out to the skies as blood dripped down onto its forehead from its blood-smeared horn. Equestria's champion had fallen and Destroyah was not even scratched! The ponies stood in utter silence, all reduced to tears, including Celestia and her sister, Luna, as the demonic kaiju towered over its fallen foe. Destroyah roared out once again then gazed down on Spike's lifeless corps, striking it with its foot to make sure he was dead. His limp limbs slumped over the twisted body as it slowly turned from the force of the kick. Convinced he was dead, Destroyah opened its deadly jaws and extended its claws as it crashed head-first into Spike's body, tearing out huge chucks of flesh with every bite! Even Luna, mistress of darkness, was disgusted by the demon's display of savagery. Destroyah continued to tear through the carcass when something caught its attention, a deafening roar and not its own! The ponies turned their attention back to the flames were the power plant used to be, noticing a strange blur above the fire line. This haze was not that of smoke, it was something much different, a sight not familiar to any of them, not even Discord! Destroyah looked back to see what the sound was but say nothing. It must have been its head playing tricks in it. It turned back around and continued feasting. Then the noise echoed again! It was like a leather glove being pulled down a base instrument. Destroyah knew that hideous call anywhere, it couldn't be?! Out from the blur, a monstrous figure passed into Equestria, an enormous saurian covered in pitch-black scales. The creature's square face was huge and his massive jaws were filled with dagger-like teeth. Its eyes blazed a crimson red as its immense, pale dorsal spines began glowing a vibrant blue. Its maw filled with the same energy and the creature loosed it towards Destroyah, sending the demon crashing to the floor. The ponies were astounded by this monster's sheer power, how could it topple the mighty Destroyah! Destroyah rose its head to see its greatest nightmare before it.
"No! It can't be! You were killed with the rest of me all those years ago?! This can't be happening!"
"Oh god!"
"What?! What is it Discord?!"
"The King of Monsters has entered Equestria! Godzilla has arrived!"
To be continued...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some may ask how Discord knows all of this. When Godzilla went nuclear he wiped most life from the planet, but some survived. It was from this great destruction Discord was born. The remaining life told of their imprint on the world before going extinct. Discord then formed Equestria.
Chapter 13 - Super Nova
Destroyah rose from the rubble, clearly confused and shocked on the highest of levels. Its most hated enemy had just passed into this new world and he had recognized it immediately!
"Hello Destroyah, it's been a long time!"
"How can this be?! You were on the verge of meltdown, we could sense it!"
"That was not me!"
"Wait?! No, NO!!! That is impossible!!! I slaughtered you myself, I saw the life force drain of of your piteous shell!"
"And I remember ever horrific memory or that dreaded day... and now it is time for you to pay for every bit of it!"
Destroyah was utterly aghast but, after a moment to take in all the information, the demonic kaiju cracked a twisted grin.
"Well then, if you are Jr, then this should be easier than I though!"
"I am no longer a Jr, I am the king of monsters!"
"No matter! You shall always be the Jr to us and because of that, you will always be inferior!"
"I have grown a lot since we last met, you don't know what I can do!"
"On the contrary, I think I do!"
"I have learned many things since we last battled but the most important of all those thing is that I am going to kick your ass!"
"Try us!"
The kaiju king reared its head and roared out its violent call of death to its most hated foe. Destroyah, in turn, released its own terrifying battle cry as the terrified audience of the colossal battle stood in utter silence.
"Discord, do you have any idea as to why Godzilla is here?!"
The Draconequus simply scratched his head. "I can only assume that the explosion caused by Destroyah and Spike created some form of wormhole, or perhaps it was the massive output of energy at the plant, or both!"
At the mention of the name Spike, Twilight continued her intense bawling but it was drowned out by the cries of the kaiju towering over the seaside development area. Destroyah gazed at its opponent with hate and malice, finally realizing that it didn't do a good enough job on its rival's son and he had grown to adulthood. Godzilla roared out at Destroyah and charged the demon, lashing out with great force using his clawed fists. Godzilla pummeled Destroyah repetitively, striking out as its chest and face will deadly force, pushing the kaiju back. To end his combo, Godzilla reared back and struck Destroyah in the gut with his massive foot, sending the demon crashing to the ground, it body tearing through buildings and adding fresh debris to the demolition. Destroyah raised itself from the rubble around it and looked back at Godzilla, a chuckle rising from his fang-filled maw. "It seems you have gotten stronger than before, that was impressive but you'll need a lot more to defeat us!"
"There is plenty more on the way!"
Godzilla rushed up to strike again at Destroyah but the demon slashed out with laser horn, forcing the new kaiju king back. The cut steamed as the micro-oxygen easily sliced through Godzilla's thick chest hide. The kaiju held its hand to the wound in pain but quickly shook of the effects.
"So you want to play dirty, huh?! Well two can play at that game!"
Godzilla's spines began to glow a vibrant blue as a massive beam of pure nuclear energy shot from its gaping jaws, striking Destroyah square in the chest and forcing the demon to its knees.
"Your beam has gotten much stronger, we're impressed... but it's still not as strong as you father's! He would be so ashamed!"
"Don't you say a word about my father!!!"
Godzilla charged the demon but Destroyah only gave a devilish griping as it spread its wings and took to the skies, avoid the kaiju king's clawed fist. Soaring through the sky with its massive draconian wings, Destroyah rained down its deadly micro-oxygen spray onto the grounded Godzilla and any structure near his form. The heliotrope bio-weapon struct Godzilla repetitively, sending heavy sparks flying as it collided with the kaiju's thick hide.
"We have to take shelter inside! Its too dangerous out here!"
The ponies rushed after Discord as he moved inside a nearby standing building, the tremors from the dueling gargantuans causing dust to seep from the roof as the whole building shook.
The raging Godzilla retaliated with a blast of his atomic ray but Destroyah evaded the shot, quickly darting out of the way with a great wing-beat. Godzilla continued to swing its head around, its nuclear beam tearing through the sky and trailing the soaring demon as it turned. Destroyah then suddenly shot out of view and Godzilla sealed his jaws, ceasing the beam. Searching left and right, the kaiju king tried to find his missing quarry but the demon was nowhere to be found. After a long moment of silence, a devilish snicker rose from behind Godzilla. The kaiju king turned to find Destroyah in all its demonic glory. The demon charged forward, smashing straight into Godzilla with its full weight and sending him to the floor. Quickly turning, Destroyah latched its tail pincer around the grounded kaiju's neck, spreading its wings and taking flight, dragging the kaiju king with it. Godzilla grunted out in rage, trying to free itself from the demon's grip but the constant battering of buildings kept him from doing so. Destroyah snickered its demonic call as it continued to drag Godzilla through the dirt, driving him through building-after-building. When Destroyah was done with its laughs, it released Godzilla from its grip and returned to the skies but Godzilla just kept sliding, driven forward by the force of his release. The kaiju crashing into a large comb of structures, sending them all to the ground in an enormous smoke cloud.
Godzilla exploded from the rubble and bellowed in rage. Destroyah landed in front of the beast and roared out as well, signaling its preparation for battle. Its laser horn began to blaze and crackle with crimson micro-oxygen energy as Godzilla's spines began to fume. Godzilla fired off a small yet concentrated blast of nuclear energy but the demon Destroyah cleaved the blast in two with his massive horn. The two kaiju snarled at each other, clearly both enraged. Destroyah charged Godzilla, slashing down with laser horn onto his chest. Godzilla roared out in pain as the micro-oxygen tore through his body, sending blood and flesh flying as puss began to gather. Godzilla held his hand to the wound as he lowered his head but the kaiju king was not defeated, not by a long shot. Godzilla then shot his head to the sky and trusted his arms to the side as he unleashed a massive nuclear pulse. The great burst of nuclear energy leveled everything that was still anything higher than ground level and sent Destroyah flying back.
"What was that sound?" Luna asked to no one in particular, "maybe we should go check it out?" The lunar princess trotted just outside the crumbling edifice to settle her curious mind.
"Luna, NO!!!" Celestia cried out as the nuclear pulse struct. The massive wave of nuclear energy struck Luna with the strength of an atom bomb and sent her shooting back into the building as it was also leveled by the deafening blow. Discord immediately put a shield around the elements as the walls were bushed down and the roof collapsed. The steaming pile of rubble was silent for a moment but was soon disturbed as the draconequus pulled himself and his shield out of the rubble. Twilight nervously looked around.
"W-where are princesses?"
Her question was answered by another blast in the rubble. Celestia had used her magic to tear her way out with only minor cuts and bruises. She looked around.
"Is everypony alright?"
"It seems so." Discord replied.
"Wait?! Where is Luna?!"
Celestia was horrified at the disappearance of her sister and began to frantically search through the rubble, followed suit by the rest of the ponies. They desperately hoped to find the lunar princess but little turned up.
"Over here!" Discord shouted, finally finding something.
Celestia snapped her head to look at Discord and a single armored hoof raised out of the rubble. It wasn't moving! Celestia rushed over and began to frantically dig, praying to herself that her sister would be alright. She quickly pulled Luna's unconscious body from the rubble, finding her form to be heavily battered. One of her wings was mangled pretty badly, perhaps even unusable and there was a large burning gash on her left side, leading from her breastplate to her flank. The wound was steaming from the nuclear rage unleashed upon her and was leaking Ichor, the golden blood of the gods. Discord walked over and placed his talons on Luna's jugular, checking her vital signs.
"She's alive, but barely. Her wing will take a very long time to heal, if it ever does and that cut will leave a nasty scar. We need to get her out of her before she sustains any more damage."
Celestia was overwhelmed with hate as she realized who had done this. She looked up at the fighting kaiju and a feral growl built up in her beating chest. A circle of flames spread around her as her hate violently grew. Discord retreated with Luna and started to mend her wounds, fearing the celestial princess would lose her mind. Celestia was more pissed than she had ever been. Her regula had melted and transformed into a Nightmare Moon style armor and her eyes where now slitted and red. Her ethereal mane had gone from gentle colors to breathed in flames which contrasted with her white coat, making her even brighter in appearance. Celestia's dark side had been unleashed in all its fury; Super Nova was on the rampage!
"Did you really think I was going to let you tear through me without any retaliation?!"
"I must admit, you have gotten stronger but you are still nothing more than an obstacle in my way!" Destroyah replied to the kaiju king's boastful statement as the demon raised itself from the rubble.
"Mark my words, you shall not prevail on this day! I will never let you live, not after what you have done to me!"
"We shall see!"
"Let's!"
Godzilla surged foreword, throwing his weight into his shoulder as he collided with the demonic kaiju. Destroyah stumbled back from the blow and snickered.
"Is that really the best you can do?!"
"Just watch me!" Godzilla lashed his clawed hand forward and struck a Destroyah's chest, tearing at his floral pattern. Destroyah grunted in pain as he coiled up, harboring his rage. The demon then lashed out, striking Godzilla with the full weight of his larger mass, sending the kaiju king crashing to the leveled floor. Destroyah followed up his blow with several blasts of its oxygen destroyer breath. The beam struck Godzilla's thick hide, sending sparks flying and explosions raging. Godzilla's eyes burned a crimson red with his rage as he whipped his tail around, striking Destroyah's legs and sending him tumbling to the floor. The kaiju king raised himself above Destroyah and roared our to the sky. Destroyah tried to strike at Godzilla but the kaiju anticipated the blow and retaliated with a massive blast of his atomic breath. Destroyah recoiled in pain from the blast but would not relent. Spreading its wings, the demonic kaiju once again took to the skies and avoided Godzilla's massive foot which came stomping down into the dirt, sending out a burst of dust and debris. Destroyah cracked its demonic grin and shot a concentrated burst of its micro-oxygen spray directly at Godzilla. The strong shot struck Godzilla in the chest, further singing the gash he received from Destroyah's later horn. The kaiju king snarled in rage and loosed a streak of his atomic flames. The shot was powerful and well aimed but the demon was still able to avoid the blast with a massive wing beat. Destroyah began to fly off into the distance, directing Godzilla away from this barren landscape. Godzilla snarled at the 'fleeing' kaiju and began to march towards its location, stomping deep into the soil with every step. Destroyah landed in Manhattan and let out his demonic cackle. It then proceeded to regurgitate a massive burst of micro-oxygen which it launched into the smoke-filled sky. The response was a blast in the face as Godzilla approached.
The blast caught Destroyah off guard and sent the demon stumbling, reeling back from the painful strike. His sizzling face was burned by the nuclear shot but Destroyah pushed through the pain. There was no way it was going to lose to that maggot! The kaiju king unleashed another blast of his blue atomic breath, this time striking Destroyah in the chest. Godzilla continued to bombard the demon with powerful shots, soon sending it kneeling down in defeat. Godzilla ceased his bombardment, believing the demon was subdued, and leaned his head back as he roared triumphantly. Destroyah did not take kindly to this as it raised itself up from the floor, screaming in defiance. Destroyah rammed into Godzilla, sending him tumbling back to the outskirts of Manhattan but the nuclear menace was not deterred. Godzilla rushed forwards in an attempt to ram Destroyah once again. The demon refused to be struck back at and leaped up for a take off but Godzilla grabbed his armored legs and blasted its nearest wing. Destroyah roared out in pain as Godzilla spun the demon around by its legs and tossed it across the city. Destroyah slammed down hard into the dirt, ripping through dozens of buildings with its massive form. The demon snickered from the rubble as a flash of light flickered in the sky. Godzilla snarled in confusion then looked up to face the approaching bomb. The Oxygen Destroyer rained down from the sky, crashing straight into Godzilla. The explosion caused by the detonation of the deadly bomb was massive, destroying the entire city in a single shot! The ravaged scene fell silent as Destroyah raised itself from the shattered and steaming rubble. The demon scanned the barren landscape; Godzilla was nowhere to be found. Destroyah roared out in victory but this moment of triumph was short lived. As the demon roared to the sky, a spiral atomic ray shot out from a mound of rubble, striking Destroyah in the neck region and sending the demon crashing down to the jagged floor. Godzilla pushed himself up from the rubble, his entire body sizzling from the massive oxygen bomb. Parts of even his tough hide had been singed off as blood trickled down from several heavy burns across his body. The Oxygen Destroyer was the ultimate weapon against the kaiju king and that was only a small shot! Destroyah quickly raised itself to meet the towering Godzilla. Both kaiju snarled at each other then released their breath weapons simultaneously. The massive nuclear blasts crashed into each other with the force to shatter a mountain! Colors danced and sparks flew around the clashing beams as both kaiju fought to gain dominance over each other in the 'beam war.' Godzilla soon began to fail in the struggle; the intensity of the previous strike was just too much. Then, from out of nowhere, a small crimson blast struck Destroyah in the back of the head, directing the demon's attention away from Godzilla. Seeing his chance, the kaiju king forced all the power he could into his beam and it surged forward towards Destroyah. The demon only took its attention away from the beam war for a moment but by then, it was too late. The combination of both beams colliding with Destroyah's face caused a massive explosion which sent the kaiju falling back to the floor. The earth-shattering explosion could be heard for miles around followed by the bloodcurdling call of the kaiju king himself.
Godzilla didn't recognize the blazing mare but it was alright with her presence as long as she was helping in the struggle. Destroyah raised itself in rage. As she flew around the raging and thrashing kaiju, she bombarded Destroyah with energy hot as the sun. Destroyah was severely annoyed and distracted by the blasts, taking its attention off of Godzilla who kept basting it with his own nuclear breath. The demon kaiju wondering what unholy force caused it to fail that beam war it was clearly prevailing in. It snarled out its demonic roar as it charged up its massive laser horn. Super Nova was now added to the fray and Destroyah was not going to have any of it! Both the kaiju king and the raging princess began bombarding the demon with their own unique blasts of energy. Super Nova soared over Destroyah, pelting the demon's skull with her crimson energy blasts that mimicked the very sun as Godzilla shot down on Destroyah with his own atomic breath. Destroyah was being backed into a corner by a gang-up duel assault and it did not like it. Destroyah coughed up a glowing energy ball that drew in Godzilla while it took to the skies and, with one massive wing thrust, struck Super Nova, sending her crashing to the floor. The moment Godzilla touched the micro-oxygen ball, the kaiju king was forced to the ground by the concentrated blast. His now weakened skin burned intensely from the shot as Godzilla roared out in sheer pain. Destroyah cackled and relished the feeling of finally having space as it soared over its foes on its mighty wings. Destroyah landed once again, just barely missing Super Nova with its massive feet. It then proceeded to approached the grounded kaiju king with caution, knowing that he would not go without a fight. It stared intently at the body as its laser horn charged to counter anything Godzilla would throw at it. Still, the demon failed to notice the kaiju king's tail until it slammed hard into its shins just below its spiked knees, tripping it. Then, in one fluid motion, Godzilla raised itself and, forcing all the strength he had into his shoulders, he slammed himself into the tumbling demon and sent it shooting back into the rubble wings first. Destroyah crashed down hard into the jagged debris, causing a fairly large smoke cloud as its armored hide came into contact with the rough earth. Destroyah slowly raised itself and screeched in pain and fury. But as it got back up, a fiery ball of energy descended from the sky, hitting it dead on the cheek and bringing it back to its knees.
Destroyah snarled out in pain as small lumps of armored hide fell off of its already singed face. The demon cracked open its raging golden eye as it raised its head to see Super Nova fly back up from the kaiju's demonic skull in triumph. Destroyah was now severely ticked off with the worthless mare. It had always hated her celestial presence but now she had crossed the line! In one fluid motion, Destroyah leaped up with its massive wings and slammed its mighty jaws around Super Nova, swallowing her whole. Godzilla roared at the distracted Destroyah who now returned its battle cry with renewed effort. Destroyah opened up its deadly maw and blasted Godzilla with its micro-oxygen spray. Godzilla screeched in pain as the horrid blast continued to singe his damaged skin but he would not let up. Raising his lowered head the kaiju king loosed his own atomic breath, ripping further through Destroyah's torn face. Destroyah stumbled back as Godzilla came in close and began to rake his razor claws down Destroyah's chest. The diamond-hard claws penetrating the demon's floral pattern with some effort as green blood oozed from the the damaged chest region. Destroyah streaked out in pain then raised its glowing head up, slashing it down and tearing into Godzilla with laser horn. Godzilla screamed out in utter pain as Destroyah leaned back and slammed the injured kaiju back down to the floor. Destroyah roared out in victory as it prepared for a final blow but, the kaiju started to convulse. Destroyah dropped to his knees as a cracking sound was heard. Destroyah stumbled around, roaring in agony. Then, its chest suddenly burst open, spraying green blood everywhere. Super Nova flew from the mess covered in gore. She quickly cleaned herself off and then noticed Destroyah had disappeared.
"You fight well princess but, you know nothing of the powers you are dealing with!" The demon snickered in an eerie voice from behind.
"Where are you?! Show yourself and fight!"
"Foolish mare!" As Super Nova jolted her head back and forth, searching for the missing kaiju, several large aggregates Destroyahs tore their way skywards and rose from the battered soil, assaulting Godzilla in one massive wave. Godzilla snorted and roared at these new foes as they stabbed and slashed at his steaming legs. They attempted to scale the kaiju king and attack his precious head and neck but Godzilla refused to grant them access. As they climbed up his back, Godzilla's dorsal spines singed with his nuclear rage and they were forced to retreat. Others tried the front of the kaiju but Godzilla merely forced them to the ground with his fist, loosing his atomic breath to keep them at bay. One of the crabellets, however, moved away from the group and targeted the confused Super Nova. The demonic crustacean surged forward and lashed out at Super Nova but she avoided the blow and struck back with her shining hoof. The carotid foot slammed into the aggregate's side and and sent it stumbling back but it seemed as if the blow had almost no effect!
"You foolish mare! Did you really think that was going to work?!"
Super Nova raged and rushed forward to strike the aggregate but before she could, the crustacean disintegrated, reforming back with the others to become the final form again. The reformed Destroyah snorted at Super Nova, staring deeply in rage into her burning eyes. The demon then snarled as it struck it massive clawed fist downwards, crushing Super Nova to the floor with tremendous force. Destroyah roared out in victory but Super Nova refused to die. Seeing that its quarry tried to escape, Destroyah slammed its massive clawed foot down onto the helpless mare, crushing her to a pulp. Repetitively the kaiju crushed down on the near lifeless pony, forcing her deeper into a crater in the floor. Over-and-over the weight of the kaiju was pressed onto her until a blast of atomic breath grabbed the demon's attention once more. Destroyah lumbered off to face the wounded Godzilla, its crushed foe as good as dead and long forgotten.
Despite the massive amount of danger facing the frightened ponies, they ran across
the barren plane of rubble and charred debris to find Celestia's limp form. They found her in the center of a large crater resembling the shape of the demon's massive foot. She was beaten down and drenched in golden Ichor; her situation was worse then dire. Her armor was shattered and her flaming mane was choked with smoke. Her form was flattened as all her bones were fractured, split or crushed. Her chest was completely caved in and her beautiful celestial horn was snapped in half. She couldn't have looked worse drenched in her own spattered blood which seeped from ever part of her near lifeless body. Discord flashed into existence next to her, blocking the sight of her horrid form from the ponies with his own body to avoid further mental scarring.
"It was a good run ol' girl but everyone must pay the piper eventually. Do you still wish to wreak vengeance upon the kaiju that did this to you and your domain?"
Celestia could just barely tilt her head in the slightest, barely performing a nod as she struggling not to slip into the cool embrace of the reaper waiting for her to breathe her last breath.
"I can transfer your powers as you die to the Godzilla. The power of the sun and the nuclear abomination, Solar Fission if you will." Discord gave a small chuckle. Celestia responded with only the tinniest of smiles with the remaining energy she had. And with that, Princess Celestia, regent of the sun, had passed on to that other world of bliss and paradise. The ponies around her were reduced to tears, lamenting the loss of their beloved ruler. Discord raised his taloned hand and Celestia's body dissolved into a bright red energy. It collected around Discord's talons and he released the energy towards the warring kaiju; towards Godzilla!
Celestia's death was unnoticed by the raging kaiju as they battled for dominance. Godzilla tore at Destroyah further with his claws, hoping to cause maximum damage by blasting his atomic breath weapon into its injured regions but Destroyah soon had enough. The demonic kaiju slashed its head back and forth, tearing clean through Godzilla with laser horn repetitively. With every strike Godzilla roared out in utter pain. Destroyah then lowered its head and skewed Godzilla with its massive horn, ripping further through him as lasers horn maximized the damage. Godzilla screamed out but its call was choked as Destroyah latched its tail pincer around the kaiju kings neck, dislodging the beaten kaiju and tossing him into a large clump of standing buildings that managed to survive the Oxygen Destroyer. Godzilla crashed down with a depressing grown as the establishments bust into flames. Destroyah shot out a small burst of micro-oxygen towards the flames to finish the job. When the burst came into contact with the beaten kaiju, it exploded on impact, destroying whatever was left of the shattered city.
The scene was silent, nothing moved. Destroyah spread its wings and roared to the heavens in victory; it had won! But it had again failed to notice something. An ominous red glow had seeped into the rubble, a life force lost to the fray. After a few moments, the rubble exploded with a deafening blast, releasing a crimson spiral ray directly at the chuckling demon. Destroyah looked down stunned as the blast smashed into its armored hide, sending the demon flying backwards with great force. The only thing that could be heard from the horrid scene was a single call. The call of a furious hell demon. The call of a true hellish king.
To be continued...
AN: Talking kaiju? Why the hell not?
Solar Fission + Hidden ending
Chapter 14 - Solar Fission
Enormous draconian wings erupted from the singed rubble, thrusting skywards and nearly blotting out the sun. Destroyah screamed in rage and defiance to whoever was left alive on the barren battleground. The only creature that remained was an incarnation of hell itself. The monstrous inferno was seething with rage, its eyes burning as if the flames of hades. Godzilla had now assumed his burning faze, a trait that greatly increased the kaiju's power and made him extremely unstable.
His spines blazed and were now a crimson red that burned with the intensity of a sun. Angry rashes that glowed a vibrant red signified his new found strength and engulfed his now incinerating hide. A huge splotch of red danced across his chest and ran up his neck. A couple of patches adorned his shoulders and also marked his thighs. Steam smoked off of his body now that he was drastically hotter than the air around him. Burning Godzilla leaned back and roared at Destroyah more violently than ever before. The demon responded with a flair of its demonic wings as it sounded its own hellish call. Burning Godzilla opened his deadly jaws and unleashed a blast of his atomic breath which now burned a crimson red and spiraled to a sizzling point. It slammed into Destroyah with tremendous force, sending it careening back. Destroyah now remembered the excruciating pain brought forth by its most revered of foes. The demonic kaiju snarled and unleashed a stream of micro-oxygen. The blast struct Burning Godzilla, sending sparks dancing as it impacted with his steaming hide. Burning Godzilla was unfazed by the blast, only enraged. Burning Godzilla's body flashed with nuclear light as another massive burst of the kaiju's solar ray shot from his gaping jaws, tearing through Destroyah's crustaceous hide. Destroyah screamed out in pain as it was pelted by the nuclear blows. When the kaiju king relented, Destroyah was forced to the ground, its chest sizzling from the burning beams. Godzilla seized the opportunity and rushed upon his foe, slamming into Destroyah and racking the demon with his burning claws. Destroyah refused to go down and retaliated against the kaiju king. They lashed out at each other in a close-ranged battle to the death. Destroyah tried to use its larger size to overwhelm its foe but the sheer heat radiating off the kaiju's body was soon to much for the demon to handle. Destroyah returned to the skies, raining its deadly bio-weapon back down onto the raging grounded kaiju king. Burning Godzilla fumed and thrashed about as the irritating beams struck repetitively. The kaiju king loosed his own breath weapon but the heat signature gave Destroyah a chance to evade. Burning Godzilla was now severely irritated by the pestering demon looming overhead. Then, Burning Godzilla lowered his head and closed his eyes, calming himself as his spines radiated with his harbored rage. His body light up in a massive nuclear display of power as his blazing eye cracked open and the kaiju king retaliated, loosing a massive blast of crimson energy. The spiraled ray was perfectly aimed and tore clean through Destroyah's right wing, ripping the limb from the demon's body and sending it crashing to the ground. Destroyah spiraled down to the floor in a comet of smoke, quickly slamming into the soil head first with a massive explosion of dust. Destroyah rose and shrieked out in rage but Burning Godzilla could see the weakness in the demon's actions; it was losing strength. Burning Godzilla smiled and snorted, knowing that victory was soon at hand. With Destroyah's wing severed, there was no chance it was retreating from this battle but it had no intention of doing so anyway, the demon was going to win or die trying. Destroyah charged Burning Godzilla but before the demon could reach the seething kaiju king, the monstrosity turned around and crashed his massive tail into the charging demon, sending it stumbling to the floor. Burning Godzilla roared out in victory then proceeded to mercilessly bombard the now grounded demon with burst-after-burst of his crimson spiral ray.
Destroyah screamed out in pain but the call was not heard. Destroyah quickly lashed upwards with laser horn, slightly tearing through Burning Godzilla's chest with the blade. The kaiju king relented his blast as the blade hit and stepped back, giving the demon room to raise itself and continue. Destroyah rushed back to Burning Godzilla and lashed out several times with laser horn, ripping deep into the kaiju's skin with ever slash. Destroyah enjoyed the feeling of once again being on top but that feeling was short lived. Burning Godzilla's wounds quickly headed due to his quick-acting regeneration process as he lashed his arm foreword, latching it onto the demon's strong neck hide. Drawing Destroyah in with this leverage, Burning Godzilla placed his other hand on the demon's burnt gut, raising it over his head in a rogue display of sheer power. The kaiju king snorted in rage and tossed the demonic kaiju away. Destroyah came crashing down into the chard rubble with a massive smoke cloud. It slowly raised itself but, now nearly fully drained of power, Destroyah had little fight left. Burning Godzilla continued his assault with a retaliation of a massive burst of his crimson spiral atomic ray. The devastating strike landed a direct hit on Destroyah's chest, splitting its battered and burn floral pattern clean open, calling forth massive amounts of green blood. Destroyah screamed out in utter pain but the call was replaced by a gurgle as more of the demon's malachite life force came spewing up from its maw. Burning Godzilla took the opportunity to blast it again, mercilessly battering the demon who continued to scream out as more green blood flowed.
After a few more blasts Godzilla paused, relenting to see his handiwork on his most hated of foes. Destroyah was now forced to the floor, deprived of power and left to bleed out. Still, Destroyah would not die like this; it would not give up! Using the last remains of its energy, Destroyah slowly charged the king and brought its horn down. Burning Godzilla caught the blade in his jaws and bit down hard. The crystalline blade soon began to fracture and, within moments, the horn snapped under the bite force. Destroyah wheeled away in more pain than it had been in since the first time it met the kaiju king.
Back at ground level, Discord smirked.
"Fire at will!"
The elements once again took up their position and trained their sights on the massive yet beaten demon. A surge of energy flowed from the six ponies and Discord charged the beam with his own chaotic energies. It created a true harmony: chaos and order working together. The beam surged foreword and struck Destroyah in its bloodied chest. The dancing beam turned the demon's chest to stone immediate when it struck. The stone curse quickly began to grow across Destroyah's body, entombing the massive demon in stone. Destroyah shrieked in pain but there was nothing it could do. It could feel itself being separated on the inside, torn apart and reorganized against its will. Burning Godzilla only stared puzzled at the fallen demonic kaiju. He was transfixed by the event. Destroyah's movements slowed eventually grinding to a halt. Burning Godzilla roared out to the sky in victory as his body glowed with surging nuclear energy. As his head lowered, the kaiju king unleashed a super spiral beam on the statued demon, causing the stone structure to exploded. Destroyah was torn asunder by the blast, is from crumbling to the floor. The ponies and Discord where pushed back by the shock waves of the blast and had to cover their eyes to block the dust storm. As the dust cleared, Burning Godzilla was the only standing kaiju, the clear victor. He stood tall and proud over the ruinous remains of his fallen adversary. The victorious kaiju king bellowed bis bloodcurdling call as he unleashed a massive nuclear pulse of which the world had never before seen the likes of before The immense blast blanketed the most of Equestria, destroying nearly every city known to pony and poisoning many with the infectious disease of nuclear fallout. Only the most heavily and magically fortified areas where spared. Discord raised a barrier over the elements to protect them from the radiation blast before it struct at over the speed of sound. When radiation cloud cleared, Godzilla was revealed, his scorching hide now back to its usual charcoal black. Discord ceased his barrier and left the elements, flying up to Godzilla and landing on the kaiju's scaly muzzle. He patted the beast on the nose.
"You have done well your highness. You have earned the right to return home, wherever you came from."
Godzilla simply stared at the strange creature that was now on his nose speaking some strange tongue. Discord snapped his fingers and Godzilla's form flashed with light and vanished back to his time, restoring balanced to the now ruined Equestria. The draconequus descended to investigate the rubble of the statue. He saw something lying on the ground. It was red and oozing green blood, possibly a surviving aggregate. Discord moved in but was forced back by something heavy and pissed off landed on his back. The god of chaos was forced to the ground as an aggregate Destroyah crablette screamed and raged above him. Discord easily teleported out from under the creature and stood behind it. Destroyah whipped around and reared, preparing for another strike. Discord quickly blasted the crablette and it became frozen in stone, stuck in its snarling and reared position. Discord walked past it and investigated the other bleeding one. He looked closer and saw it was the pony form the kaiju had taken, the part of the demon that actually showed compassion and mercy, the part that Luna loved so deeply. Discord scooped up the bleeding demon pony and began medical procedures, hoping it was not too late.
Three years had passed since that dreaded day and much of Equestria was still leveled by the kaiju's raging battle. Luna sat in her throne looking at nothing in particular absentmindedly, tracing the scar running down her side. She ruffled her wings, still irked that she could not yet achieve flight but that too would come in time, just like her scar would eventually disappear in a century or so. She looked down, going over the blueprints for the Manhattan rebuilding projects. A good portion of the city had been restored but she felt it could be improved before they moved onto the next city rebuild. Luna sighed sadly remembering the event vaguely. The Solar Empire had died with her sister but, in turn, it gave birth to the new Lunar Empire under her rule. She was only brought out of her trance by a familiar clicking on her tiled floors.
"Lost in thought again eh?"
Luna looked up to see her Guard Captain in his obsidian version of Nightmare Moon's armor.
"The war with the Griffons still rages on?"
"Of course!"
"I suppose that's good for you then Destroyah."
The demonic pony grinned under his helmet.
"Enough sustenance for years I'd say! Yes indeed, this war brings out the best in me!"
Luna smirked but as she looked at her mate she remembered his other half still in the dungeons, cursed to bear nightmares and pain for eternity. Luna honestly thought it had gotten off lightly. She was still making arrangements to banish it to the moon but their conflict with the griffons was strenuous and postponed the event. The cruel creatures attacked when they realized that Equestria had been attacked and nearly completely destroyed. Celestia's death made them even more eager to strike. Luna put Destroyah on the front line constantly due to his raw power. Even when not combined with his demonic and gender-less counterpart, the demonic mare still had the strength to destroy armies of griffons with ease. But even this was pathetic compared to the power of the true Destroyah. Destroyah walked over to his loving mate, leaned against her and put his wing over her cold form.
"Things will only get better. At least Discord is aiding us."
"The old man does have a heart at times."
With that, the couple sat staring at the night sky like they would do for the rest of eternity.
Epilogue
Deep within the bowls of Manhattan's rubber lay the essence of death itself, weakened and drained of energy. The crimson organism was alone but still alive, keeping all its emotions of hate and rage kept locked up inside. All it needed was to be freed from this ruinous prison and it could return to its former glory.

Chapter 03 - The First Missing Case
Destroyah followed sluggishly behind Twilight as she kept on asking many questions about his world, severely trying its patience. It soon zoned out her voice as it began to focus more on the crowds of ponies they past, each one staring with horror at the beast while thoughts of what their soft, sweet flesh would taste like under its hideous tongue lashed through its mind. Twilight soon noticed that Destroyah had ceased to converse and looked back to see what it was doing, noticing the disgusted crowds.
"Oh ignore them, they have just never seen something like you before. It puts them on edge."
"We don't care. They should be on edge.."
Twilight stopped in front of a tree with windows, a door, and from what Destroyah could spot a balcony in the branches? Twilight unlocked the door to the library and let the kaiju in. Destroyah swiveled its head around, looking at all the books lined up on the managers of shelves. It scraped its way over to the 'Fiction' section, its eyes scanning over the labels.
"My little dashie... Hellsing... Star Wars? What is this?!"
"Like what you see?"
"There is nothing about kaiju!"
"Kaiju?" Twilight asked. There was a slight pause.
"Never mind.... Besides that, it's not bad." Destroyah was not used to giving compliments in any fashion, it hated the though as he begrudgingly replied.
"Twi you're home early and wh- SWEET CELESTIA WHAT IS THAT!?" Spike screamed out as he entered the room. Destroyah grew tired of this nonsense and its appetite grew larger by the minute, this pathetic dragon would not be tolerated! It unfurled its draconic wings and with a single flap, it was meters in the air, towering over them both as the tree itself shook from the sheer power of its takeoff.
"Fool! We are Destroyah! We are death! How dare you not know our glorious name?!" Destroyah roared out as its maw filled with heliotrope micro-oxygen energy.
The little dragon squealed in terror and ran back to hide behind Twilight rear legs. Twilight immediately took control of the situation.
"Calm down! Not every pony has seen or heard of you yet! You may have been so powerful and recognizable in your world but not here! Just because ponies don't know you doesn't give you the authority to take it out in poor Spike!" Twilight yelled out, not realizing her harsh tone.
"Oh my, I am sooo sorry. I didn't mean to scream at you."
"It is fine, we are the ones to... a-a-apologize... we o-o-overr-r-reacted." Destroyah said, trying to push those hanis words out of its mouth. It would be bad if it attacked and destroyed them now, it needed more time to observe them and plan its attack strategy. These creatures posed little threat on their own, a single pony being far weaker in every respect to Destroyah, but with their strong bonds of friendship and numerous allies, they could be a challenge to take down all at once. It would have to stalk and wait, at least for the time being. Anyway, it still didn't know who this Celestia being was who appeared to be their god or goddess, maybe it would taste better than that dreaded Tofu guy. However, Destroyah was drawn out of its deep thought when the door opened. A small yellow filly with a red mane and a red bow in her hair walked in. She instantly shrunk back at the regal and raw appearance of Destroyah who had now returned to base level and stared very coldly as the intruder. Twilight walked over and put a comforting hoof on her shoulder.
"Its ok. He's our guest here. He'll be staying the night, maybe longer, depending on his situation."
"R-really?!" The terrified pony stuttered, "H-hai Mister."
Destroyah simply nodded its head.
"So how are you today Applebloom?"
"Not so good."
"Really? What's up?"
"The Flim Flam Brothers came back for round two. I mean we ran em' out again but they sure have some gall."
"Oh sorry to hear. Perhaps they will stay away for good this time."
"Say yah got mah' book Twi?"
"Yes right here." Twilight said as she handed Applebloom a copy of 'The very hungry caterpillar'. All the while Destroyah had been listening keenly, sensing a free meal at the sound of two unwanted thugs on the loose. Whoever these Flim Flam Brothers were, they where obviously hated and would not be missed in the least! A perfect opportunity to strike! It swallowed a mouthful of saliva in anticipation, trying to keep its devious thoughts concealed. Destroyah was only snapped out of its fantasy when the door closed, alerting it to its surroundings, and Twilight turned to face him.
"Uh we don't have a guest room so I can take the couch if you wish."
"No we will sleep on the balcony. We like the cool night air."
"Are you sure?"
"Positive."
"Well your speech is at least improving."
"It is?"
"It most certainly is. Though a bit heavy and guttural but still, better!"
"Good!"
Destroyah nodded and spread his wings, not wanting to waste time or energy climbing these prehistoric stairs. Within seconds it had reached the doors to the balcony and swung them open with great force before closing them back up, trapping himself outside. It folded its wings and lay down, gently for once, on its side and curled up into a hideous ball of devilish thorns. Now all it had to do was wait for Twilight to fall asleep, her and that mini, bite-sized snack of a dragon.
A few hours passed and Destroyah was still in a trans state, leaving only his ears open to listen for the telltale sign of slumber. Twilight finally crawl into bed and soon enough her breathing became deep and slow as sounds of snoring began to rise, it was time. Destroyah waited prone for a little while until he was absolutely positive she was asleep, then it rose. It got up and stretched out its wings, feeling the cool night air under its thick membranes. Destroyah leaped from the balcony with ease and began to soar across the midnight sky. It flew past the village, past Sweet Apple Acres and beyond. If they were beaten back only a few hours prior, they couldn't be far. Destroyah flew across the horizon, searching for a sign of their existence. Before long, a small light coming from a gap in the tree cover nearby caught its golden eyes in the darkness. It flew off a couple of miles from the orchard and spotted a dim light below it. A fire lit up a small campground below him and seated on two logs opposite from each other were the ponies he had been searching for, his prey at last! Hmm, two horned ponies together might not be the best idea, Destroyah though to himself, I should separate them, divide and conquer!
Destroyah landed away from the camp on the edge of the forest with a gentle step so he wouldn't alert his prey. The ponies where laughing and drinking heavily, it knew they would be off guard! It intentionally struck a tree with its hind leg to get their attention, making something in the trunk snap with a loud crack. The noise was so loud, even the birds of the forest returned to the safety of the skies. Both heads snapped up and looked in the area Destroyah was.
"Flim, would ya' mind looking for whatever made that noise? It sounded like something REALLY big!"
"Certainly Flam." The younger unicorn said, not realizing the danger that lay ahead.
Flim got up and walked over to Destroyah's general area, unaware of the demon's presence. It grinned widely knowing that its targets were even stupider than anticipated. Flim stopped at the very edge of the tree line, barley visible to Flam.
"I see nothing brother! It must have been the wi- AHHHH!!"
Flam could vaguely see his brother as something pulled him into the brush.
"Flim! Where are you brother?!
"OH CELESTIA HELP ME!!!"
"Brother where are you?!" Flam cried out with no response.
"HEL-"
The scream was cut off with a dreaded gurgle as Destroyah ripped the helpless unicorn apart! Hideous sounds of tearing flesh and cracking bone rose from the forest and then it all ceased.
"Flim?!" Flam exclaimed but there was again no response. All he could see was two blazing gold eyes staring at him with rage in the darkness before the creature burst from the foliage and disappeared in the night sky. Flam backed up very slowly, scanning the surrounding area for any signs of the murderer. He continued to back up from the attack site until his flak came into contact with a solid and cold mass. His head slowly tuned around in terror to see what it was, only to sighed in relief, realizing it was only his apple cider-making machine. But his eyes continued to scan the forest, sensing the murderer was still around. Nothing moved, the forest was quiet, very quiet, too quiet. Then, from behind, Flam heard a large thud shake the ground as a menacing snarl rose into the air. He turned to face the creature which was just outside of the firelight. All he saw was it's blazing yellow eyes and the demonic contour of its massive body, since the details were blurred by the darkness. Flam took a tiny step back and the figure reared up, stroking its massive wings and extinguishing the fire; Flam was out of light and out of time! Flam panicked, kicking back as he whipped around to turn tail and flee. Unaware of his surrounds, Flam ran head-first into his apple cider-making devise. He crashed to the ground, his head aching but he knew that if he passed out, that was it! He raised himself and ran for dear life, disoriented and out of stamina. Destroyah easily caught up to his stumbling form and with a dreadful flash of its needle-like, blood-drenched teeth, it struck with deadly force and accuracy. There was nothing the unicorn could do as Destroyah charged and sunk its fangs deep into Flam flank, tearing off his right hind leg! Flam screamed in utter pain but his misery was short lived... just not short enough! Destroyah tore at his flank with his huge claws and dagger-like tail, tearing his stomach open and exposing his slimy innards which spewed onto the floor, drenching it in warm blood. Flam collapsed onto the floor on his side, his intestines laying on the floor before him. His vision began to blur as his life force faded. All he could see was the hideous claws of Destroyah which paced around his dying form, letting the pour soul suffer some more before it finished him off. Flam was in pain greater than anything he had experienced before, he knew the end was near. Destroyah, knowing the patterns of death, noticed Flam was drawing his last breath and delivered the final blow. Flam let out one last scream but alas, it was cut short as his throat was torn out, ending his life.
Its prey was slaughtered and now all that was left to do was consume. Destroyah lowered its blood-drenched head and began to devour its kill, ripping through flesh and bone with ease. It made short work of the unicorn's soft flesh. When Destroyah had finished its meal, it trashed the rest of the campsite, making sure no one would know who did it then took to the pitch-black skies once again, its hunger dulled and its satisfaction almost complete.
AppleJack and Big Mac were awakened by the piteous screams and ran to the area where they had originated. They found a trashed campsite: torn tents, shredded steel from the Flim Flam Brother's machine, and a silenced fire but there were no signs of the brothers themselves.
"Hey AppleJack, ya' might wanna' take a gander at this!" Big Mac called as he pointed to a dark puddle on the floor just to the side of the totaled campsite.
"Oh sweet Celestia, that's blood!" AppleJack screamed.
"What happened to dem' pour souls?" Big Mac asked to no one in particular.
"I don't know but it must a' been an awful way ta' go!" AppleJack replied. There was a trail from the large puddle leading to a smaller one nearby, it must have been a struggle. They continued to search for signs of life, even searching the very edge of the Everfree.
"Big Mac, I found me somethin' else!" AppleJack called out, terrified by what she found. Before her stood an enormous tree which had been split by a massive amount of force. But that was not the scary part of the tree, what terrified them the most was that it was drenched with splattered blood along with the surrounding foliage.
"Well, we know were dis' murderer struck, once here and another time near the campsite. It must a' separated dem'."
"Ah reckon we gots a real mystery here."
"Eeeyup."
The two terrified ponies were oblivious to know that the killer soared right above their heads, silent in the darkness of the night. Destroyah admired its glorious handiwork, a calling card to the authorities and only the first of many tragedies this demonic kaiju will cause upon these beautiful lands. After a few minutes, Destroyah was satisfied with its work and returned to its perch on the library's balcony. It landed quietly not to awaken Twilight or her peaky dragon and licked itself clean of the fresh blood spattered across its gnarled armor. This was to be a fun place, Destroyah thought to itself as it inwardly grinned with evil!
