At least three days had passed since the defeat of the monster Destoroyah at the claws of Godzilla and hooves of the Princesses. Most of the ponies, dragons and changelings had begun to accept Godzilla, Mothra and Anguirus as their friends and allies, despite their enormous sizes and frightening appearances. Recently, there have been reports of a 'bird-like creature' flying across Equestria and visiting different locations in the land, this flying creature was first sighed in Griffonstone.
Mothra had been far less active due to the injuries she had sustained from Destoroyah. Fluttershy and many of the nurse ponies and doctor ponies from Ponyville had done their best to help and heal her - and thankfully their hard work had payed off; Mothra was feeling a lot better but was still not quite ready for action. She decided to lay low and rest for most of her days. Most ponies, especially Fluttershy, had taken a great liking toward Mothra due to her majestic and beautiful butterfly-like appearance.
Twilight and her friends were also been informed of the origin of the most recent kaiju menace. The Elias had explained that Destoroyah was the unintentional result of the Oxygen Destroyer, the weapon that killed the original Godzilla in his world. They explained that Destoroyah was originally a colony of very tiny crustaceans that, when exposed to the power of the weapon, grew larger and stronger, and eventually merged together to create the extremely deadly monster the ponies witnessed.
Again, the ponies were left shocked and speechless by this discovery, and some felt a mild distaste towards the inhabitants of Godzilla's world for creating such a horrifying monster. Although they were not angry nor completely disgusted, mainly because Destoroyah's creation was completely unintentional and unexpected.
But today, Equestria will face new threat, and this one has a close relation with one of the kaiju...
...
Ponyville
It was a beautifully, shining day in Ponyville and in the Castle of Friendship, where the Elias had explained to the Mane Six and their friends of how Godzilla's race's status became critically endangered.
"So, Godzilla... is the last of his race?" Starlight Glimmer asked with shock and dread.
Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Spike, Starlight Glimmer and - most of all - Twilight Sparkle, felt great amount of sympathy and sorrow for the kaiju. They could understand a friendship problem, but this was something far worse than any friendship problem; the idea of one being the last of his/her species and having no others like them was very heartbreaking and dreadful to the ponies.
"Poor Godzilla..." Fluttershy muttered sympathetically as she struggled to hold back a tear. Being an animal-lover and caretaker, this was extremely heartbreaking to the yellow pegasus.
"That is not entirely true, there is another of Godzilla's race back in our world. He is far younger and his name is 'Junior'."
"Really?" Twilight asked with a glimmer of hope in her voice.
"Indeed, Junior is Godzilla's adopted son, and he is currently in our world, away from his father."
"That's wonderful!" Twilight exclaimed happily, relived to hear that Godzilla was not the absolute last of his species. The same can also be said for her friends, as they too had smiles of relief on their faces.
"Ah sure hope ya'll can send the big fella home soon." Applejack stated. Being a very compassionate pony, Applejack truly wished for the father to reunite with his son soon, seeing as how they had not seen each other in a long while.
"Big G has a son?!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed excitedly before pulling out her Party Canon, and shouting... "Let's put a party for him in congratulations!"
"Really, Pinkie?" Rainbow Dash muttered, turning to her friend. " Are parties your answer to everything?"
"No, Pinkie's got a point." Twilight suddenly said before getting off her throne.
"I do?" Pinkie Pie questioned, pointing a hoof at herself.
"Yes," Twilight confirmed with a smile. "Godzilla hasn't seen his son for quite a long time and his probably feeling lonely. Besides, ever since he came to our world, he constantly saved us. Don't you think he deserves something from us in return? Pinkie, you get the ponies to prepare the party while I go and call Godzilla."
"You got it!" Pinkie exclaimed with a wink, and with speed that rivaled Rainbow Dash's, she raced out of the room in a flash.
"Rara's comin' to visit Ponyville, too. Maybe she can sing a song for the big guy." Applejack suggested with an eager smile.
"That's perfect Applejack!" Twilight exclaimed happily. With that, Applejack also went outside to find her childhood friend.
Twilight Sparkle smiled happily. After all, what are friends for?
...
The Princess of Friendship flew outside of Ponyville and deep into the Everfree Forest. She was currently flying across the sky while scanning the ground below for her kaiju friend. And it din't take long before she eventually spotted him - coming across a large lake, she noticed the very familiar pointed, jagged dorsal spines that were residing above the water's surface.
"Godzilla!" She called out rather loudly.
Almost immediately in response to her call, the Monster King surfaced out of the water. The upper part of his body was now above the surface of the water while the rest, including his tail, was submerged. He quickly spotted Twilight Sparkle hovering in mid-air, not too far away from him.
"Godzilla..." She said softly with gentle smile while looking at him. "I would like you to come to Ponyville again. There's a surprise for you, and I think you're gonna like it."
Godzilla raised an eyebrow, not quite sure about the 'surprise' part, but nevertheless, he trusted this pony - in fact, he trusted most of the ponies in Equestria. They had been very welcoming and friendly towards him, which was a complete opposite to the way humans would treat him. The Monster King gave her a quick nod as a response.
"Wonderful! Follow me!" Twilight said before flying off, with Godzilla emerging from the water and beginning to follow her close behind.
...
After hearing the instructions for Godzilla's party, almost everyone in Ponyville quickly agreed, and were even anxious to see the Monster King again. After seeing and hearing how he (and his fellow friends) had saved them from Destoroyah and defeated the monster later on, they were more than happy to call Godzilla and his ally kaiju friends. If love had no bounds, then the same can also be said for friendship.
"Everything's perfect." Pinkie Pie stated with a huge grin on her face as she examined Ponyville.
Everypony soon sensed their guest of honor approaching via the loud vibrations through the ground.
They quickly turned north, and sure enough, spotted the Princess of Friendship leading the Monster King to Ponyville. Godzilla quickly stopped in his tracks once he came close enough. Twilight then turned to him and pointed down at Ponyville.
"Godzilla, this party is for you! The guest of honor!" Twilight declared happily with a big smile.
Godzilla looked at Twilight for a moment before turning to the town; he couldn't believe his eyes: these ponies, they... they actually made a party in celebration for him? He had witnessed parties in his home-world by humans, but he had never thought of the idea of a party... for him. He saw all the pony mares and stallions gazing up at him with friendly smiles instead of horrified looks. He looked around, seeing balloons of different colors everywhere and even a small figure that was shaped exactly like he was - with arms, legs, head, tail and dorsal spines - sitting on a large table. Granted, the statue was made from gems, but still, it was a welcoming sight to him.
All the residents of Ponyville were present for this party: Mayor Mare, Bon Bon (Sweetie Drops), Lyra, Octavia, Derpy, Dr. Hooves, Daisy, Cheerilee, Bulk Biceps, Lotus, Aloe and many more.
One thing that was different from before, was that Godzilla also noticed a large stage at the heart of Ponyville, where a unicorn with shades that went by the name Vinyl (also known as DJ Pon-3) had prepared her turntables and had already begun the music, catching Godzilla by surprise. The music was loud but very enjoyable, and after it started, an earth pony mare walked up the stage. She was Applejack's childhood friend and her name was Coloratura, but she was often called 'Rara' by her closest friend.
Coloratura looked up at the towering Monster King (who was now gazing at her) with a gentle smile.
"This song goes to our newest friend and hero: Godzilla!" She declared, the rest of the ponies cheered happily and stomped their hooves on the ground like before!
Even if Godzilla could speak, he would not know what to say about this. In his world, the humans would run away from him screaming 'Godzilla!' in terror, but here - here, the ponies actually exclaimed Godzilla's name with joy and happiness rather than fear.
With a warm voice that could melt ice, Coloratura began her song.
"They see, what they want to
But they know, nothing about you~
We feel who you truly are,
A hero deep down~!
They say, you're a monster
But they know nothing about one!
We feel what's inside of you,
The goodness that lies beneath,
The soul of a hero~!
No matter what they say! No matter what they do!
You'll always be a hero! Here in Equestria~!
No matter how they try! No matter what they use!
You'll always win! For the greater good~!
We know you're a hero,
We feel the power inside you!
They know nothing about you,
They lose every time!
Our friendship will never be broken
Our bond will always stay here!
We will, stand together!
We will, win together!
Win together~!
Win together~!
No matter what they say! No matter what they do!
You'll always be a hero! Here in Equestria~!
No matter how they try! No matter what they use!
You'll always win! For the greater good~!"
After the song finished the ponies began 'clapping' by stamping their hooves on the ground and cheering wildly! Even Godzilla had to admit this song from this pony was very enjoyable to hear, and actually touched his heart. To show his approval, the Monster King raised his head and let loose a loud roar!
*SKREEEEEEEEEEOOOOONGK!*
By now, the ponies had gotten used to Godzilla's roar. No longer flattening their ears, and some were even enjoying it.
Twilight smiled happily, glad to see that her newest friend was getting along so well and so fast.
...
The Crystal Empire
The Crystal Empire was the kingdom that resided farther north of Equestria and the home of the crystal ponies. This Kingdom is currently being ruled by Princess Cadance and Prince Shining Armor. Recently, Princess Cadance gave birth to an alicorn baby who was given the name 'Flurry Heart' and would one day become the next air to the throne of the Crystal Empire.
...
Inside the castle, Shining Armor had put Flurry Heart to sleep. After his daughter fell asleep, Shining quietly exited her room and went outside the balcony to meet up with his wife, who was overlooking her city below.
"Is Flurry Heart asleep?" Cadance asked, turning to her husband as he walked up to her.
"Like a kitten." Shining responded with a smile, to which Cadance smiled back.
"It was past her nap time, anyway." She giggled.
But Shining's smile soon disappeared and got replaced by a worried look. "Say, I've been meaning to ask you something: You have heard of the giant creatures appearing in Equestria recently, right?"
Cadance turned to him and gave the prince a confused look. "Yes, the first one I think was called 'Godzilla'. He appeared in Ponyville and saved not only Twilight, but also Spike and their friends from a monster called 'Destoroyah'." Princess Cadance said, explaining the news she - and the entire Crystal Empire - had received about the latest event in Ponyville involving the kaiju.
"Well..." He began, his voice slowly becoming more and more uneasy. "I was wondering, can we be sure that these creatures are friendly?" Shining was still unsure about the kaiju's presence and motivations. While Shining Armor knew not to be deceived by one's physical appearance, like how he once believed Thorax to be an enemy, he still found it a little hard to get over the kaiju, especially after hearing the power they possessed.
"What do you mean?" A confused Cadance asked. "If Godzilla saved Twilight, Spike and everypony else, then he's a friend of the Crystal Empire and a friend of mine - and yours."
"I know, but still..." Shining tried to argue, but couldn't find the right words.
"It's okay." Cadance said, putting a hoof on his shoulder and him giving a reassuring smile. "You'll get used to them."
"Thanks, dear." Shining replied with a smile of his own. But this touching moment was soon-to-be-broken - when something suddenly caught Shining Armor's attention... something in the sky. "Hey, what's that?" He suddenly asked, turning and pointing his hoof in the sky. Cadance quickly turns to where her husband was pointing at, and notices something as well... but could hardly believe it.
They were not alone, either: almost every crystal pony in the empire began seeing the same thing in the sky that appeared to be heading their way - something big.
From the distance, it appeared to be a flying mass of gigantic crystals, but that soon changed when the 'object' came closer and closer, allowing the ponies to get a better look at what was coming their way. The crystal ponies gasp when they see that there was actually a creature that seemed to be embedded in the mass of crystals.
The creature was not only getting closer to the Crystal Empire, but it was also getting closer to the ground as it began to descend down.
...
Once the creature finally reached the ground, an incredible transformation happened: in a few flashes of light, the crystal mass shrunk down and disappeared almost completely (as if it had never existed), before a brand new form landed on the ground with it's two feet.
The ponies - including Princess Cadance and Shining Armor - couldn't believe what had just happened before their very eyes. The gigantic creature had just landed on the ground and was now standing just outside of the Crystal Empire borders.
In terms of physical appearance, this creature looked very similar to Godzilla, but it also had many differences to distinguish it from the true King of the Monsters: Most of it's body was covered in navy-blue scales, with the exception of the chest and abdomen, which were covered in reddish-purple. It was also considerably taller and much bulkier than the Monster King, with much thinner and shorter arms that seemed of little use in an up-close fight. It's tail was extremely long - far longer than Godzilla's - and ended with pointed crystal-like spikes. The crystals from it's previous Flying From did not all disappear, as it also possessed two large crystals erupting from it's shoulders, and on it's back resided many maple leaf-shaped dorsal spines. Finally, the creature had a trans-orange crest on it's forehead. This creature was the extraterrestrial clone of the Monster King, and his name: is SpaceGodzilla!
The silence from the awe and shock was broken when SpaceGodzilla let out his own roar...
*SKREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRNT!*
The space monster's roar was extremely different from his terrestrial counterpart's and less loud, but it was enough to send shivers down the spines of most of the crystal residents.
After finishing his roar, SpaceGodzilla turned and proceeded to walk forward - towards the Crystal Empire.
Crystal ponies began screaming in terror as they began fleeing the area where SpaceGodzilla had set foot, as fast as they could. Those who were a safe distance away from the space kaiju simply watched in awe as the gigantic SpaceGodzilla walked pass them without looking at them. As SpaceGodzilla continued walking forward, he had indeed noticed the crystal ponies below him, but had no concern or care for them, and was indifferent about the destruction he was causing, the crystal houses he was crushing, the crystal ponies that were fleeing from him in terror.
What intrigued the space monster the most was not that face that this entire kingdom was made of crystals, but the fact that he was unable to control them or manipulate them in any way. SpaceGodzilla had sensed a great deal of energy emitting from a certain crystal - which he quickly spotted residing below the gigantic crystal castle, of where Princess Cadence and Shining Armor were also residing in.
It was the Crystal Heart!
"What is he?" Shining Armor asked in astonishment as he gazed at the extraterrestrial creature from the balcony.
"He could be one of the gigantic creatures that we were talking about." Cadance suggested. She had the unmistakable look of fear and worry on her face. "And if so, I hope he's friendly."
But the Princess of Love's hope was quickly proven wrong, when SpaceGodzilla preformed his next move: he extended his right arm and pointed the palm of his hand to where the Crystal Heart was residing. The Crystal Heart suddenly began to shake uncontrollably (while still spinning)... before it suddenly shot out of it's rightful place with blinding speed - and into SpaceGodzilla's waiting hand, which closed immediately after the heart entered it!
"The Crystal Heart!" Cadance exclaimed loudly.
The crystal ponies gasped in shock and horror as to what the space monster had just done.
After using his telekinetic abilities to bring the Crystal Heart to him, SpaceGodzilla opened his four-clawed hand to look the Crystal Heart laying in the palm of it. He then closed his hand and began to transfer some of his cosmic energy into the heart. This was vary visible, as blue-colored electricity began to form and surround his closed hand.
"What is he doing?!" A furious Shining Armor demanded.
After finishing the transfer, SpaceGodzilla opened his hand and used his telekinetic powers to levitate the Crystal Heart - which was now surging with visible electricity - back to it's rightful place. Once the Crystal Heart was returned, it began spinning much faster than normal, and also began transferring energy through the entire crystal castle (as well as the Crystal Empire itself), which in turn would be absorbed by SpaceGodzilla's shoulder crystals, providing the space monster with sustenance and power.
"What did he do?" Cadance asked with worry and concern.
Now that he had an energy source to replenish his power, SpaceGodzilla turned his attention to the crystal ponies.
What to do with them?
Summoning even more power, SpaceGodzilla lifted both of his claws in the air, and in response, all of the crystal ponies - every single one of them - began to suddenly levitate off the ground and float up into the sky like balloons. All except for Princess Cadance, Shining Armor, Flurry Heart and some of their Royal Guards.
The royal family could only watch in shock as their panicked and screaming crystal pony subjects were now suspended and hovering in the sky above the Crystal Empire. SpaceGodzilla decided to keep them there until he could decide on what do with them - there's 'work' to be done first.
The two crystals on his shoulders began to light up, and just like before, in response to SpaceGodzilla's action - gigantic crystals, shaped like spikes, began erupting from the ground below, destroying many crystal houses in the process!
Both Shining Armor and Princess Cadance had no words to describe this, they could not believe their eyes, both at the powers this creature possessed and his actions. But whatever this creature had planned for them, both Cadance and Shining knew that it was definitely not with good intentions.
"We have to stop him!" Princess Cadance declared.
"Right! I'll get the Guards!" Shining Armor said before running off. After he left, Cadance turned her attention back to SpaceGodzilla, hoping that this nightmare will end soon.
...
Ponyville
Back in Ponyville, the party was still going on. Godzilla stood in his place near Ponyville, not wanting to cause any kind of destruction to his newfound friends. Godzilla had never felt this happy in a long time. Aside from the kaiju from his world, he had never attacked, nor was attacked, by any of the inhabitants of Equestria.
The Monster King was standing still while several pegasus ponies were flying over his head and forming a giant Panama hat made of clouds on top of it. Normally, Godzilla would have been bothered by small, flying things flying around him due to his past experiences with Jet Fighters and Stealth Bombers, but after experiencing the kindness and compassion these ponies had shown him, he was truly a gentle giant.
"I must say, he looks fabulous with that hat." Rarity commented, gazing up at Godzilla with widened, starry eyes that were filled with awe.
Twilight and her friends had explained to him all about Equestria, it's inhabitants and how things work. The Monster King had been seen a lot of things over the course of his long life; such as a monster composed of acidic and toxic sludge, a hybrid between a plant and his species that was spawned from his cells, a robotic version of himself, a cybernetic monster from outer space, a subterranean bug-like monster and many more.
So most of the creatures in Equestria were nothing unusual to him, but hearing that the Sun and Moon of this world were controlled by the two alicorn sisters that he had met before and befriended, was what really caught his attention. Godzilla already guessed that they were the rulers of this race, but he could never have imagined that they also controlled the Sun and Moon in order to maintain balance for their kingdom and their subjects.
He was told that an ordinary pony mare can become an alicorn, regardless of what type she may be, if she fulfills a very important, royalty-worthy deed. Indeed, this was quite different from how his world worked.
He was also filled in on how Princess Luna once became corrupted with jealousy and bitterness towards her elder sister, and became Nightmare Moon. Thus, her elder sister was forced to use the Elements of Harmony to imprison her in the Moon. A thousand years later, Nightmare Moon would return, only to be defeated by Twilight and her friends with the power of the Elements of Harmony.
This reminded him of how Mothra came into conflict with her dark counterpart, Battra, due to their different opinions and views on humanity. Mothra saw the goodness within them, while Battra saw them as a threat that must be destroyed in order for the Earth to survive.
He was also explained on how they had defeated many of Equestria's past threats, such as the Storm King, Tirek, Chrysalis, King Sombra and many more. The Monster King was truly impressed by these ponies; small and defenseless they may seem, they were actually quite formidable in combat should one threaten their friends, family and/or kingdoms.
Yet, despite all that, they were still very welcoming to strangers, no matter what those said strangers were, and were also very forgiving towards those who had wronged them.
"Godzilla sure seems to be having a good time." Starlight commented with a smile as she gazes up at the Monster King, who was standing still while his hat was almost finished.
"Yeah, judging from what the Elias told us, it looks like he's never had this amount of fun in while." Twilight replied with a sweet smile of her own.
"That's a big friend you've got there, Pinkie." Mr. Cake said, walking up to the pink earth pony.
"It would cost us a fortune to get enough ingredients to make a cake big enough for him." Mrs. Cake added.
"Don't you worry, I'm sure we'll figure something out." Pinkie assured them with quick a wink. "For now..." she began while pulling out her Party Canon."It's party time!" she exclaimed before firing her Part Canon.
Twilight sighed with a smile and shook her head at Pinkie's ability to almost always stay positive.
"Typical, Pinkie."
But the emotion of happiness and joy that Godzilla was having is soon shattered like glass, by a very negative feeling that ran up to him, as if a Jet Fighter had just flown and crashed into his face. Instinctively, Godzilla turned farther north, indicating that is where source of this sudden negativity came from. Godzilla was never one to ignore his instincts. With a low growl, the Monster King suddenly turned and proceeded to head to that specific direction, his cloud-hat dissipated as soon as he left.
"Where's he going?" A confused Rainbow Dash asked as she turned to Godzilla, being one of the first ponies to notice this.
The ponies quickly stopped their party and looked on as their guest of honor - for no apparent reason - began leaving the party that was made for him.
At the same time, Spike suddenly belched out a letter. Using her telekinetic magic, Twilight lifted the latter and began reading it. After several seconds of reading, The Princess of Friendship's face was consumed with shock, dread, fear and horror, something which everypony noticed right away.
"What is it, Twilight?" Rainbow asked eagerly.
Twilight barely found the strength to speak after reading the letter.
"T-The Crystal Empire is under attack!" She exclaimed loudly.
"What!?"
All of the ponies that were around them exclaimed at once as a union!
"By what?" A-now-very-concerned Applejack asked.
"I don't know. But whatever it is, we need to stop it!" Twilight declared firmly, and it was at that moment that she also realized Godzilla's motivation for leaving the party. "And I bet that's where Godzilla is heading. He probably sensed that the Crystal Empire is in danger!"
"Well what are we waiting for? Let's go help him!" Rainbow Dash declared with a confident smile.
"Right!" Starlight exclaimed. "But we gotta hurry!"
With no time to waste, the Mane Six, Starlight Glimmer and Spike raced to reach the Friendship Express train in time!
...
Thankfully, they were just in time and were able to reach the train before it began heading for their destination. Once everypony was inside, Twilight couldn't help but think - think about the possibility of her brother, her sister-in-law or even her niece being put in great danger. If something, anything, happens to them, she wouldn't know what to do. Her student, Starlight Glimmer, noticed this and gently placed a hoof on her shoulder. Twilight turned to see a reassuring and hopeful smile on Starlight's face.
"Don't worry, Twilight. It's gonna be okay, we're gonna save them." She stated reassuringly, and Twilight't couldn't help but smile back.
"Thank you, Starlight. I hope Cadance, my brother and Flurry are alright." Twilight said worriedly.
...
The Crystal Empire
The Crystal Empire was now quite different from how it usually looked, due to the gigantic crystals that had sprouted from the ground like trees! These crystals were of course created by the Crystal Empire's most recent threat!
Many brave Pegasus Royal Guards flew at the gigantic SpaceGodzilla, despite the differences in size and power. They were, of course, completely outclassed by the Monster King's clone's immense power and found themselves pushed back and blown away by SpaceGodzilla's telekinetic powers! While they were obviously no match for the space monster, SpaceGodzilla did find it amusing at their futile attempts to stop him.
"It's no use, he's too powerful!" Shining Armor exclaimed angrily.
"Then I'll go!" Cadance suddenly stated firmly as she spread her wings. She was unwilling to watch the horror play out any longer and was ready to take manners in her own hooves! Seeing how this creature had attacked her kingdom and her subjects, greatly angered the Princess of Love. As a princess, it was her duty to protect the Crystal Empire from all threats.
"Honey, you can't-" Shining Armor tried to object but was cut off by his wife.
"I know, but I can't let our kingdom suffer any more!" She angrily declared before taking off with a flap of her wings, not giving Shining Armor time to reply back.
...
She flew straight at SpaceGodzilla with incredible speed and fired powerful, blue-colored beams of magic from her horn! The beams struck SpaceGodzilla directly in the face! As a Princess, Cadance possessed powerful magic and would have been very effective against a creature from Equestria such as a Tatzlwurm. But against an incredibly powerful creature that was also the double of the King of the Monsters himself - it had very little to no effect.
SpaceGodzilla did indeed feel her attack and was mildly impressed by this pony's power - mildly.
"Darn it!" Cadance cursed as she stopped and hovered in mid-air. "My magic has no effect on him!"
SpaceGodzilla let's out a light, sadistic growl before using his telekinetic powers on Cadance.
"What?" Cadance exclaimed when she suddenly found herself frozen in place and unable to move - in fact, she wasn't even moving her wings, yet she was still suspended in mid-air. "What kind of a creature is he?" She couldn't help but ask herself in a mix of both shock and anger.
With his telekinetic powers, SpaceGodzilla brought Cadence closer to him - closer to his face. Cadance was eventually brought near the space monster's snout, where her purple eyes made contact with his menacing orange ones. But despite the situation she was in, Cadance was still determined to stop SpaceGodzilla somehow!
"You won't get away with this!" She angrily declared.
The space monster raised an eyebrow, a bit puzzled on what she meant by that. If it was about taking over her kingdom, then she's a little late on that.
"Let go of my sister-in-law!"
A very angry, feminine voice suddenly cried out, causing SpaceGodzilla to turn his head around and search for the source. Scanning down on the ground, he immediately noticed seven ponies and a small purple dragon. Like the one he currently had in his telekinetic grip, one of them also possessed wings and a horn - and was looking very angry at him.
The Mane Six, Spike and Starlight Glimmer gasped once they got a good look at SpaceGodzilla.
"He looks like...Godzilla..." Starlight was the first to speak, understandably shocked and puzzled at SpaceGodzilla's appearance.
"Except for those two big crystals, blue scales and a couple of other things." Rainbow Dash added, looking at he's shoulder crystals.
"And for being a meanie!" Pinkie added.
"Look up there!" Spike exclaimed while pointing a claw in the sky. Looking up, the heroines gasped in horror at the sight of all the Crystal Empire's residents hovering in the sky, above their homes with no apparent explanation. But Twilight was more concerned with the safety of her sister-in-law to notice them.
"Like I said before: Let. Go. Of. My sister-in-law!" Twilight repeated herself angrily, glaring at the space monster.
SpaceGodzilla had to admit, this pony was certainly a very brave individual to demand him like that. But as brave as she may be, she was still beneath him. Almost as if attempting to provoke her, SpaceGodzilla used his telekinetic powers to throw Cadance away uncaringly, as if she was a small stone!
"Cadance!" Both Shining Armor and Twilight exclaimed at once.
Luckily though, Cadance was able to stop herself thanks to several strong flaps from her wings, and was back in the air before anyone could exclaim more.
After breathing a sigh of relief, Twilight turned her angry glare at SpaceGodzilla, who was still completely unfazed by it. After witnessing what SpaceGodzilla had just done to her sister-in-law, Twilight felt anger - a lot of anger running up to her.
"How dare you?!" Twilight couldn't hold it any longer. In a blind rage, the Princess of Friendship shot from the ground like a missile!
"Twilight, wait!" Starlight tried to call out in order to calm her down, but she was already too late.
...
"This is for Cadance!" Twilight exclaimed as she raced for the space monster, and while doing so - she fired a very powerful, purple beam of magic from her horn! When her beam struck the Monster King's double in the chest, SpaceGodzilla let out a deep growl. This attack was actually more powerful than Cadence's, but still not enough to be a significant threat to him.
Twilight quickly changed course once she came too close to SpaceGodzilla. The space monster's eyes followed the young princess as she changed course again and flew straight for him, readying another spell as she did so. But she would not get the chance to fire it - with a single swing from SpaceGodzilla's arm, Twilight felt an invisible force suddenly smack her out of the air and send her crashing in one of the gigantic crystals!
The immense force of the impact was so great that it caused Twilight to lose consciousness upon impact, and because she was now unconscious, Twilight began plummeting to the ground. However, a blue aura suddenly surrounded and stopped her right before she could reach the ground. It then levitated her gently; the source of this was none other than Twilight's sister-in-law.
"Twilight?" Cadance asked worriedly as she gently placed the unconscious Twilight on the ground. Twilight's friends soon came running to witness this. They gasped in horror upon seeing their unconscious friend on ground.
"Is she..." Spike asked with dread, fearing the worst.
"She's okay, but hurt." Cadance confirmed while gently placing a hoof on Twilight's forehead.
Another purple-colored beam suddenly shot out of nowhere, striking SpaceGodzilla very close to his left eye. The space monster let out a roar of irritation and annoyance! This one actually got SpaceGodzilla a little angry, likely due to being caught off guard by the attack! Tuning his head around and looking down, the space kaiju spotted Shining Armor, with his horn lightened up with magic.
"Get your claws off my sister and wife!" Shining Armor exclaimed angrily. This monster had already harmed both his sister and wife, not to mention his kingdom and subjects, and he will not stand for it!
SpaceGodzilla was now very annoyed; so far, these ponies have been mostly amusing in their attempts to stop him. But now they had gotten on his nerves. And just to show them who they were dealing with, SpaceGodzilla gathered his energy and opened his toothy mouth, ready to unleash his primary weapon on the Prince of the Crystal Empire.
A primary weapon was fired, alright... but not from him.
A blue beam shot past SpaceGodzilla - narrowly missing him - and hits one of the gigantic crystals he created. Upon impact, the crystal immediately exploded and shattered to pieces! Shocking everyone - including SpaceGodzilla!
Ceasing his prepared attack, the surprised SpaceGodzilla turned to his right, where - to his greater surprise - saw...
"Godzilla!" Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Rarity, Starlight Glimmer and Spike exclaimed at once.
"That's Godzilla?" Cadance asked in surprise, she briefly turned to SpaceGodzilla before looking back at Godzilla, noticing the physical similarities between the two kaiju.
The true Monster King had just arrived to the scene. He was currently standing within the Crystal Empire borders, close to the edge. He quickly began scanning the area around him, mostly looking down for any of his pony friends. Then, his golden eyes widen in shock when he saw Starlight, Rainbow, Fluttershy, Spike, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, a pony he didn't recognize... and an unconscious Twilight laying on the ground.
The state of shock was quickly replaced by anger. Clenching his sharp teeth, Godzilla turned to his extraterrestrial double, knowing full-well that he was the one who placed his pony friend in her current state. With such anger and frustration, Godzilla let out a roar more powerful then ever before!
*SKREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNGK!*
His roar was so powerful that it actually shattered every single glass in the entire Crystal Empire! Even the ponies who were suspended from above had to flatten their ears! Even SpaceGodzilla was taken back by this. But that did not mean that he's going to retreat in any way! SpaceGodzilla let loose his own roar to signal that he accepts Godzilla's 'invitation'.
*SKREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRNT!*
This time Godzilla responded by firing two rounds of his Atomic Breath and striking the space monster in the chest! SpaceGodzilla cried out in pain from the attacks, his hide was actually less durable than his 'brother's'. Godzilla fired his primary weapon again! But this time, before his Atomic Breath could connect with the space monster a third time, a transparent, crystal-like shield suddenly appeared in front of SpaceGodzilla. Upon contact, the Photon Shield not only protected it's master from Godzilla's primary weapon but it also caused The Monster King's Heat Ray to wash harmlessly across it's form, spreading out of its sides and going in directions Godzilla never intended.
Those who witnessed this simply gazed at it in shock and astonishment.
"How can he do that?" Rainbow Dash asked in astonishment at SpaceGodzilla's unexpected ability.
"Who knows what that monster can do." Applejack added.
A low groan caught everypony's attention. Turning to Twilight, they see the young princess' eyes slowly open. At that moment, joy and relief filled all those who were around her.
"Twilight!" Spike exclaimed happily.
"W-What happened?" Twilight asked, putting a hoof on her head.
"Well..." Pinkie began "After you somehow got knocked into those big, pointy crystals and passed out, you're big brother attacked Crystal G, but it didn't work. Then Crystal G was going to attack you're brother, but then Big G himself arrived. When Big G saw you hurt, he got really angry and the two are now fighting!" She finished with a grin.
Hearing the parts about 'Big G' got Twilight's full attention.
"Godzilla's here?" Twilight asked in surprise. Before any of her friends could say anything, her question was answered by the Monster King's famous roar. Turning to the source, she instantly spotted Godzilla in the distance, charging on foot towards his alien double.
As he was charging, SpaceGodzilla's shot his own primary weapon in the form of an orange-colored Corona Beam! Unlike Godzilla's Atomic Breath - which goes in a straight line - the Corona Beam twisted and turned before finally making contact with it's chosen target - which was Godzilla's neck. The beam was also quite powerful, roughly equal to Godzilla's own primary weapon, as the Monster King stopped in his tracks and roared out in pain!
SpaceGodzilla fired his primary weapon again and again, striking Godzilla in the chest, dorsal spines and shoulders! During the assault, Godzilla loses his balance and falls down, crushing several crystal houses in the process.
"Big G's down!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed.
"He needs our help!" Twilight declared firmly as she got up and was ready to take action. But was then stopped when the Elias' voices were heard in Twilight's head and everypony that's around her.
"Twilight Sparkle, we are sensing a very powerful and very sinister energy emitting from you're world."
"What was that?" A startled Cadance asked, having never heard of the Elias before.
"It's alright, it's just the Elias." Starlight assured her with a small smile.
"Elias, there's creature that looks very similar to Godzilla and attacked the Crystal Empire. Do you know what or who he is?" Twilight asked in desperation.
"If the creature you speak of has crystals in his body then we know who he is - he is an abomination, a horrible mockery of Godzilla himself, and his heart could not be more different than Godzilla's. He's name is 'SpaceGodzilla'."
"SpaceGodzilla? Is he like an alien version of Big G?" Pinkie asked curiously.
"It is... complicated. But we can tell you that, like Biollante, SpaceGodzilla is creature that was spawned from Godzilla himself."
"How do we defeat him, then?" Starlight asked eagerly.
"Has he done something... unusual when he first arrived? Perhaps doing something with an object of sort?"
This immediately caught Cadance's attention. Realizing what he had done to the Crystal Heart when he arrived in her kingdom.
"Why yes, he did do something to the Crystal Heart. I'm not sure what, though." Cadance confirmed. This earned her the attention of the ponies around her.
"The Crystal Heart?" Twilight asked in surprise, beginning to worry even more.
"Then...you must destroy it."
"What?!" They all exclaimed in shock.
"SpaceGodzilla has no doubt transferred some of his power into your Crystal Heart, and is using it as a source of power. So long the Crystal Heart remains, he will never lose power. You must destroy it in order to weaken him."
This news was very hard to take in; the Crystal Heart was here for many generations and has protected the Crystal Empire from threats. After Flurry accidentally shattered it, they were able to restore it thanks to the Crystalling with the magic of the Crystal Ponies and Flurry's own. Now here they are being told that the Crystal Heart had been corrupted and must be destroyed.
"We can't do that!" Twilight exclaimed. "If the Crystal Heart is destroyed then an eternal storm will come and the Crystal Empire will be lost!" She argued, hoping for an alternate solution to this problem.
After a few moments of silence, the Elias respond...
"Then perhaps you could nullify SpaceGodzilla's power. If you use you're combined magic on the Crystal Heart, perhaps you could nullify it and SpaceGodzilla's power over it will disappear."
To Twilight and her friends, it was no question. This was currently their best (and only) option.
"It's a chance we have to take!" She declared firmly before turning to her friends. "Come on, everypony!" With that she and everypony else raced to the Crystal Heart's location as fast as possible!
Due to his very short arms, SpaceGodzilla would prefer to battle his opponents from a distance as he viciously fired his Corona Beam at his downed terrestrial counterpart! Thanks to the beam's malleable nature, it was able to strike specific areas of an opponent's body that an attack like the Atomic Breath would not be able to reach. The beam twisted and turned, striking relentlessly as the Monster King continued to roar in pain.
SpaceGodzilla finally ceased his primary weapon. But then he began to release bolts of green-colored energy from his shoulder crystals, at Godzilla. These unusual energy waves did not harm Godzilla in the slightest - but they weren't suppose to. Godzilla suddenly began to levitate off the ground! SpaceGodzilla growled in sadistic pleasure before using his Telekinesis to send the Monster King flying and crashing into a very large crystal with extreme force! The crystal quickly shattered like glass when Godzilla's body crashed into it.
But Godzilla was not even close to defeat! Quickly getting up, The King of the Monsters fired his Atomic Breath at SpaceGodzilla's chest, earning a loud roar of pain from him. As Godzilla got up for another round, SpaceGodzilla decided to try a new tactic: curling his long tail, SpaceGodzilla levitated off the ground. But he was not the only thing that started to leave the ground - some of the sharp-pointed crystals he created began to shoot themselves upwards like rockets!
Godzilla, not willing to give him the chance to show his next trick, began charging forward. SpaceGodzilla countered with a few blasts from his Corona Beam, causing Godzilla to halt and roar! SpaceGodzilla then proceeded to circle Godzilla while firing more blasts of Corona Beam at him. Finally, after enough blasts, SpaceGodzilla flew back down and landed on the ground further away from his terrestrial counterpart. Seizing his chance, Godzilla fired his Heat Ray... only to be blocked and deflected by SpaceGodzilla's Photon Shield, much to Godzilla's frustration.
Twilight, Starlight, Princess Cadance and the rest had finally reached the Crystal Heart, which was spinning like crazy when they saw it, and surging with visible electricity.
"What did that monster do?" Twilight growled at the sight of the Crystal Heart's unstable state.
"Let's do this fast, I don't know how much Godzilla can take it." Starlight stated worriedly while gazing back at the battle.
"Right." Cadance agreed.
With that, the three ponies surrounded the unstable Crystal Heart and respectively fired the magic from their horns at once, all striking the Crystal Heart. They began using the love and magic within themselves to try and nullify the energy that was within the Crystal Heart. They concentrated very hard, exerting all the energy and effort they had within. It lasted for at least twenty seconds, until Cadance gave out, at which point, Twilight and Starlight followed her.
"Ugh, this energy is more powerful than I thought." Cadance stated, breathing heavily and sweating.
"We're gonna need some help to pull this off." Starlight stated, also breathing heavily.
"Maybe I can help."
Everypony quickly turned to the source of the nearby voice.
"Brother!" Twilight exclaimed happily with a huge grin at the sight of her older brother who approached them.
"What do you need me to do?" He asked, his voice turning more serious.
"SpaceGodzilla transferred some kind of energy into the Crystal Heart and is using it as a power source." Cadance explained. "We need to nullify the energy and sever his power source."
"Say no more, I got you're back." Shining said with a smile.
"Thanks, sweetie." Cadance smiled back.
SpaceGodzilla roared at his terrestrial counterpart, who was, again, charging towards him. But Godzilla suddenly stopped in his tracks and sensed that something was not right, his senses told him that the danger was coming... from above. Turning his attention to the sky above, Godzilla's eyes widened in surprise when he was met with a rain of giant, pointed crystals! Godzilla had wondered what happened to the crystals that were launched into the sky, and now he gets his painful answer.
The crystals rained down on the Monster King, with their sharp points directed at him. Not all the crystals were successful as some completely missed their target, but those that were successful caused incredible pain to Godzilla, even if they broke on contact with his thick hide.
Shining Armor took his place and aimed his horn for the unstably-spinning Crystal Heart. With no more time to waste, he, along with this wife, his sister and Starlight fired their beams of magic at the Crystal Heart! The others watched in anticipation as the four tried their very best to disperse SpaceGodzilla's energy with the power of their love and magic!
Godzilla's dorsal plates lightened up just before he fired his Heat Ray at the space monster, but was once again blocked by the Photon Shield that SpaceGodzilla created. After Godzilla (unsuccessfully) finished his attack, SpaceGodzilla's shield dissipated, after which point the extraterrestrial clone of Godzilla fired his primary weapon and struck the Monster King in the chest and neck!
Shining Armor, Twilight Sparkle, Princess Cadance and Starlight Glimmer were now at the limits of their strength, and very exhausted and tired but still continued with the process. Finally, the Crystal Heart began to spark with red-colored electricity as it's spinning speed began to increase!
"It's working!" Spike exclaimed.
"Come on, Twilight, you can do it!" Rainbow Dash cheered her on.
The four ponies were sweating heavily and clenching their teeth. The red electricity began to spark more and more just as the speed of the Crystal Heart continued increasing. Starlight really wanted to stop but knew she couldn't as this was the point of no return. After ten more seconds, the Crystal Heart finally did something different - it released an incredibly powerful energy that surged outwards - similar to Godzilla's Nuclear Pulse - blowing Shining Armor, Cadance, Twilight and Starlight backwards in the process!
The ponies gasped and quickly ran to their fallen friends. Fluttershy and Rarity help Cadance up while Applejack and Rainbow assisted Shining Armor, Pinkie Pie helped Starlight and Spike helped Twilight.
"Twilight, are you okay?" Spike asked.
"Yeah." Twilight confirmed as she stood up. "What about the Crystal Heart?"
Everypony turned to the where the Crystal Heart was at, and much to their pleasant surprise and relief, saw the Crystal Heart in it's normal state again: spinning normally with no sign of electricity, indicating that SpaceGodzilla's energy had been successfully nullified!
"You did it!" Pinkie Pie squealed happily as she cheered loudly.
"It would have been a shame if such a beautiful thing was destroyed." Rarity added.
"I just hope this worked, though." Princess Cadance muttered.
She had no idea how correct she was. With the cosmic energy now gone from the Crystal Heart, the energy that surged through the crystal castle and into SpaceGodzilla's shoulder crystals has been severed.
*SKREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERNT!*
SpaceGodzilla roared in shock and surprise, feeling his power and energy suddenly dropping down at a very fast rate! He couldn't understand how this could be happening - then it hit him. Turning to where the Crystal Heart was at, he noticed the ponies and young dragon standing there, and could also sense the energy he implanted in the Crystal Heart was now completely gone! Rage began to build up in him; how dare these creatures cut-off his energy source?
The enraged SpaceGodzilla now began heading towards them on foot.
Rainbow Dash was the first to spot the approaching space behemoth.
"Guys, I don't think he likes what we did." A fearful Rainbow Dash said while pointing a hoof at the approaching SpaceGodzilla.
Everypony gasped in surprise, the four most powerful magic-users were completely drained and even if they weren't, it is highly unlikely that they would have been able to stop SpaceGodzilla, even in his-now-weakened state!
SpaceGodzilla stopped in his tracks and was ready to fire his Corona Beam at them. Unfortunately for him though, he forgot about one 'little' problem; a blue beam composed of radiation struck his back, blowing off some of his crystal-like dorsal spines in the process! SpaceGodzilla cried out in pain and turned back to see his unfinished business standing before him. Godzilla roared at his clone before his dorsal plates and the inside of his mouth lightened up again, and shot his Atomic Breath, striking SpaceGodzilla's unprotected chest and causing him to roar out in pain! Because he could no longer replenish his energy, SpaceGodzilla did not have the strength to create his Photon Shield.
"Yeah! Kick his flank, Big G!" Rainbow cheered him on.
Now extremely enraged, SpaceGodzilla began charging at his terrestrial counterpart on foot. Once close enough, the space monster turned and lashed out his long tail at Godzilla, attempting to impale the Monster King with the crystal-like spikes located at the end of his tail. But he had apparently forgotten that Godzilla was far better in melee combat, and the Monster King proved it by easily catching the space monster's tail with his hands.
With a firm hold on his tail, Godzilla preformed the same technique he did on King Ghidorah: lifting his much heavier clone in the air and slamming him on the ground with incredible force!
After finishing this, Godzilla charged up his body, gathering more atomic energy than before! His dorsal plates began to glow a neon-blue color and were also surrounded by blue-colored electricity. The Monster King opened his mouth and fired his Spiral Heat Ray at his extraterrestrial double!
Upon contact, the Spiral Heat Ray instantly destroyed both of SpaceGodzilla's shoulder crystals, most of his dorsal spines and seriously injuring him! SpaceGodzilla screeched in extreme pain, but Godzilla was not finished as he fired his attack again, striking his double in the back and further damaging him!
Pinkie Pie was happily waving two small flags in her front hooves (that seemingly appeared out of nowhere) that read 'Go, Big G!'.
Godzilla roared at SpaceGodzilla, challenging him for another battle.
Seeing how weakened he was and how powerful Godzilla's new attack is, SpaceGodzilla realized the situation he was in and would gladly escape with his life. Slowly getting up on his two feet, SpaceGodzilla summoned all the energy he had left in his body and grew an incredible mass of gigantic crystals from his back that covered almost his entire body. After transforming into his Flying Form, SpaceGodzilla levitated off the ground before he suddenly shot into the sky like a rocket with incredible speed!
The ponies and Spike watched as SpaceGodzilla flew higher and higher until he eventually disappeared from their view.
With another old foe defeated, Godzilla reared his head and let loose a roar of triumph!
*SKRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONGK!*
Because SpaceGodzilla had left and his power was extremely drained, the gigantic crystals he created slowly dissipated and disappeared entirely. Unfortunately, this also meant that the crystal ponies he had suspended in the air began falling to the ground, screaming!
"Oh no!" Cadance exclaimed.
But then, the falling crystal ponies - every single one of them of the entire Crystal Empire - suddenly found themselves enveloped in yellow auras, and stopped in mid-air, before being gentle lowered and placed on the ground. No pony, not a single one, was hurt.
Twilight, Starlight, Cadance and the rest were, at first, baffled and confused by this, until they realized the source of the power. Looking up, they see...
"Flurry?" Twilight gasped.
The youngest alicorn Princess, who was hovering in mid-air outside of the castle, had used her unusually powerful magic to safely catch and lower all the residents in the Crystal Empire. Her mother, father and their friends were left speechless at Flurry's incredible display of power!
"Flurry Heart's magic is more powerful then expected." Starlight commented.
"No kidding." Twilight muttered.
"Starlight!"
Everypony turned to see Sunburst approaching them.
"Hey, Sunburst. How are you?" Starlight smiled happily at her old childhood friend.
"I guess I missed the party." He chuckled, scratching the back of his head as the others laughed.
"Look up there!" Pinkie pointed up, causing the others to turn to where she was pointing at.
To everypony's shock and surprise, Flurry Heart was flying towards Godzilla. Fearing for her daughter's safety, Cadance was ready to go after her, but was stopped by Twilight, who blocked her path with her right wing.
"Cadance, it's alright." Twilight said, giving her sister-in-law a reassuring smile. "He's not gonna hurt her."
"But-" Cadance tried to argue. Ironically, she now had the same reaction and worry Shining Armor previously had before the arrival of SpaceGodzilla.
"Please," Twilight said, still keeping her smile. "Trust me" She then turned to Godzilla while still having her smile "And trust him."
Cadance and Shining looked at each other for a moment before looking at their daughter - still unsure.
The Monster King eventually spotted the young alicorn Princess, despite her small size. Flurry Heart stopped and hovered right in front of Godzilla's snout, gazing into his brilliant golden eyes. Most young ones would be terrified by such a huge and scare-looking creature, but it wasn't the case with Flurry. She was actually smiling and giggling, even clapping her hooves excitedly. Even Godzilla was amazed; this infant was not scared of him at all and he felt the same positive aura he felt from Twilight, her friends and pretty much everypony in Equestria. Godzilla leaned his head closer, allowing Flurry Heart to touch his snout with her hoof, and after doing so - Flurry actually went and hugged his upper jaw.
Both Shining Armor and Princess Cadance watched in amazement - three minutes ago, Godzilla was a fierce creature with unspeakable power! And yet, here he is now being more of a gentle giant than anything else.
"See?" Twilight turned to them with a proud smile.
"I see, Godzilla really is a hero." Shining Armor said happily. When he first heard of Godzilla and the other kaiju, he was unsure. But now, after seeing how Godzilla had saved his family, friends and kingdom, he was more than happy to call Godzilla a friend.
Cadance opened her wings and took flight.
She flew close to Godzilla and hovered in mid-air, allowing her subjects to see her. Once all her subjects could see her, she cleared her throat.
"As Princess of the Crystal Empire" She began, before turning and pointing a hoof at Godzilla. "I would like to extend my hoof in friendship to our newest friend and hero: Godzilla!"
Just like the ponies of Ponyville, the crystal ponies began cheering happily at this, and even Godzilla couldn't help but let out his own cheer in the form of a roar.
*SKREEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOONGK!*
Like the ponies of Ponyville, the crystal ponies had gotten used to the Monster King's roar. After he finished his roar, Flurry Heart did her own 'roar' which many of the ponies found adorable.
...
Mount Aris/Seaquestria
In the lands beyond Equestria resides the Kingdom of the hippogriffs, known as Mount Aris. Here, the hippogriffs lived a life of peace and happiness. But because of the threat of the Storm King, Queen Novo had used her magical pearl to transform all of her hippogriff subjects into seaponies and fled into the underwater kingdom, Seaquestria.
After the defeated of the Storm King, the seaponies no longer had to hide in fear and some of them were transformed back into hippogriffs where they returned to Mount Aris, although some chose to stay as seaponies and live in the waters of Seaquestria.
Queen Novo herself had decided to live most of her life up in Mount Aris as hippogriff, though she would occasionally transform herself into a seapony to visit Seaquestria every once in a while.
The seaponies/hippogriffs were still unaware of the existence of the kaiju... but that would soon be changed...
...
The Queen of the hippogriffs was currently enjoying a relaxing massage on her back in the spa room located within Mount Aris.
"Mmm, this is the life." She purred, smiling. Ever since the defeat of the Storm King, things had gotten a lot better and easier for both herself and her subjects. With the hippogriffs now living both on land, air and underwater, there was nothing that could possibly disturb her relaxation... or at least that was what she thought - and hoped.
All of the sudden, hippogriff soldier suddenly slammed open the door, startling Queen Novo, and the spa hippogriff massaging her, in the process, as she nearly fell off the bed!
"My queen, we have an emergency!" He exclaimed.
"Whatever it is, it can wait." Novo stated angrily, very annoyed for being interrupted from her relaxation, before laying down again and waiting for the spa hippogriff to continue her work.
"But my queen, this may be a threat! Because something is heading for Seaquestria and Mount Aris!" He now stated.
It's at this very moment that Queen Novo's concern darted away from her relaxation as she got up and stared at the soldier with a-now-worried look! As queen, her number one priority was to ensure the safety of her subjects and kingdom.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!" She exclaimed before getting off her bed and running off along with the soldier - but not before throwing the spa hippogriff some bits. "Keep the change." She said before leaving the room.
...
Mount Aris itself was almost completely surrounded by deep ocean waters, where the underwater kingdom (Seaquestria) resided in. But today, something was heading (or rather, swimming) towards both Mount Aris and Seaquestria. The mysterious creature was almost completely submerged under the water, the only thing that gave it's presence away was a large, orange-colored, fish-like fin that was slicing through the surface of the water as the creature underneath headed for the kingdom with significant speed!
...
Queen Novo, along with several of her soldiers, quickly came out and stood outside her of balcony in Mount Aris. From the height of her tower, she instantly spotted the gigantic fin that was racing for her kingdom. Judging from the size of the fin alone, Novo concluded that this creature must be enormous.
"What is that thing?" She asked in both worry and confusion, having never seen a kaiju before - or anything like it, for that matter.
"We are not sure, my queen. There is no creature that we know of that could be this big." One soldier answered.
This only placed more worry on Queen Novo as she continued watching the mysterious creature coming closer and closer.
But suddenly, and unexpectedly, the fin suddenly stoppedin it's tracks - it didn't even reach Seaquestria. Queen Novo and her soldiers now looked understandably confused by this, then became even more confused when the fin suddenly submerged under the water and disappeared completely.
"This better not be some kind of a prank Skystar is playing on me!" Queen Novo thought bitterly and threateningly. The last thing she wanted was her daughter interrupting her relaxing message with some kind of a stupid prank.
Fortunately, this was not a prank. Unfortunately, the creature that she was about to meet will put her (and her subjects) in a state of shock that she will not forget anytime soon.
Finally, bubbles began to form on the surface of the water... right before the surface breaks, and a creature of titanic proportions emerges and lets loose a roar that sounded like a herd of elephants!
Queen Novo and her soldiers were not the only ones with now-gaping beaks, widened eyes and shrunken pupils - the roar of the creature caused every single hippogriff in Mount Aris to emerge and come to the scene. As soon as the hippogriffs saw the aquatic kaiju, they gained the same (or similar) expressions on their faces.
The creature in particular appeared somewhat similar to a dragon, but with more differences than similarities. Only the upper part of it's body was out of the water while the rest was submerged. The creature appeared to be a biped with a long neck and a somewhat crocodile-like head. Unlike a real crocodile, it had small fin-like ears on the sides of it's head and two antenna on top of it. It possessed large arms with three-clawed hands while also having a large, fish-like fin on it's back (the same one that was above the surface of the water when it was approaching the kingdom earlier) and another on it's long neck. Finally, bright red skin with round black bumps covered most of it's body, while it's belly and chest were a yellow color. The residents of Mount Aris were staring at the Aquatic Dinosaur: Titanosaurus!
At this point, the water was shallow enough (given how big Titanosaurus was) for the kaiju to stand on his feet. The aquatic dinosaur did notice Mount Aris - which was roughly the same height as himself - but payed no attention to it, or it's inhabitants, as he had other ideas.
The aquatic dinosaur then proceeded to walk towards the nearby beach.
"Everygriff, get ready!" Queen Novo ordered as all of her soldiers redyed their spears at the approaching Titanosaurus! Although that was not needed; once the kaiju came close, he simply walked pass Mount Aris without even looking at them, much to Queen Novo's surprise and confusion "Or maybe not?" She whispered to herself.
In a short amount of time, the kaiju eventually reached the beach, and was now almost completely out of the water. Queen Novo and her subjects could now see that the creature also had a large, fish-like tail that was no-doubt used for swimming.
Titanosaurus suddenly feel on his knees before collapsing completely on the sandy beach, and was now laying on his stomach. Like crocodiles and seals, this deep-sea-dwelling creature needed to get out of the water at some point and bask in the warm sun.
At this point, the transformed seaponies made their way to the surface due to sensing and hearing Titanosaurus' heavy footsteps.
"What is going on here?" One female seapony sternly asked. "Where did-" she was cut off when her eyes spot the basking aquatic dinosaur that was laying on the beach, not too far away from their kingdom, which of course filled her and everyone else with shock and surprise.
"I better to report this to Princess Twilight. She's gotta know what this thing is." Queen Novo said to herself before quickly flying back inside.
...
Ponyville
Elsewhere, the Cutie Mark Crusaders have gathered together in their clubhouse in their tree.
"All right, Ah hereby call this meeting of the Cutie Mark Crusaders to order!" Apple Bloom declared, tapping her hoof against the podium twice, before turning her attention to her two best friends and fellow members. "Recently, there have been giant creatures comin' to Equestria. What do ya'll think about this?"
"Their huge!" Sweetie Belle squealed happily. "Especially Mothra, she's beautiful!" A mischievous smile formed on the young unicorn's lips. "I bet my sister would be jealous if I said that in front of her." She chuckled to herself a little.
"I'm glad that they're friendly." Scootaloo said more reluctantly, then she remembered their encounter and experience with Destoroyah. "Well, most of them anyway."
"And that Godzilla fella, he saved Ponyville from that monster!" Apple Bloom added, thinking back to the battle between the King of the Monsters and Destoroyah.
"Twilight said that he's not a dragon, but he sure looks a lot like one." Scootaloo commented.
"Ah've been thinkin', what if one of em' would like some help from the Cutie Mark Crusaders?" Apple Bloom suggested with an eager grin.
Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo looked at each other for a moment then back at Apple Bloom, with uncertain looks.
"While we do help a lot of ponies and creatures, I'm not sure that these guys are one of them." Scootaloo stated.
"How come?" A confused Apple Bloom asked.
"Well, these creatures don't seem like they need any help. Plus, I'm not sure our sisters would appreciate us getting too close to them without their consent." Sweetie Belle added.
"I know that." Apple Bloom rolled her eyes before continuing to speak with a smile. "But they've done so much for us, Godzilla and Mothra saved us from that monster! I feel like we owe him something for saving us."
Again, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo looked at each-other, still unsure.
All of the sudden, all three fillies were interrupted when they hear a very loud noise coming from outside. The noise itself sounded very different from anything the three fillies have ever heard before, and was far louder as well... except for Godzilla's roar, that is.
"What the hay was that?" Apple Bloom asked before going towards the open window to find where that strange noise came from. Her two friends followed her close by.
Once Apple Bloom placed her front hooves on the sill and poked her head outside, the young filly was placed in a state of surprise and amazement which was evident by her ears flattening against her head.
"What do you see, Apple Bloom?" A curios Scootaloo asked.
Slowly, Apple Bloom finally said..."Ya'll might wanna see this." With that Apple Bloom moved to allow her friends to take a look.
Soon enough, they were both placed in the same state as Apple Bloom currently was.
Not too far away from their tree house, a gigantic creature laid on the ground, unconscious. The creature itself was quadrupedal, but rather small in comparison to the likes of Godzilla or Anguirus. The creature possessed dark red skin, and had an armored carapace of thick overlapping plates upon it's back and tail. On each of it's four feet resided sharp claws and it's mouth was filled with sharp teeth. A few small, orange-colored spikes resided on the top of it's head and it had two large elephant-like ears on the sides of it's head. Finally, the creature had a single large horn protruding from it's forehead. This creature was also known as the 'Subterranean Terror', but his true name is Baragon!
"It looks... kind of like a puppy." Sweetie Belle said. While she wasn't quite sure, she did find the creature somewhat cute.
"What?" Scootaloo asked in surprise. "No, it doesn't." Unlike her unicorn friend, Scootaloo saw no such thing in it.
"Maybe we should check it out." Sweetie Belle suggested as she moved away from the window and began heading toward the door. But was suddenly stopped by Scootaloo who zipped in between her and the door, blocking her way.
"No! Let's not check it out!" Scootaloo exclaimed.
"Hey girls, Ah think it's waking up." Apple Bloom said, pointing a hoof at the kaiju. Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle quickly raced back to the window to see it for themselves.
Indeed she was correct - the creature's eyes slowly open, revealing his bright amber eyes, which was followed by a low growl that escaped his toothy mouth.
"What do we do?!" A fearful Scootaloo exclaimed out loudly as she began backing away from the window.
"Maybe it's friendly?" Sweetie Belle guessed with uncertainty, while also backing away from the window.
Slowly, the kaiju began to get up on his four legs, until he stood to his full height. Baragon was not quite as large as the other kaiju that visited Equestria, but was still significantly bigger than most native creatures in Equestria. Apple Bloom simply gazed in awe with her mouth hanging open and her eyes widened, as Baragon, despite his smaller size, towered over their tree.
The kaiju let loose a powerful roar - his roar was rather unusual and less loud than Godzilla's or Anguirus', but it was enough to cause nearby birds to flee from the trees. After finishing his roar, the subterranean reptile lifted his head and began sniffing the air before suddenly turning his head toward the direction of the Crusader's tree - specifically, the tree itself.
"Uhhh, girls...Ah think he spotted us." Apple Bloom muttered in fear as she gulped and backed away from the window a little.
"What?!" Both Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo exclaimed very loudly at the same time.
At this point, Baragon turned and proceeded to head toward the tree of where the Cutie Mark Crusaders were residing in. The ground began shaking from each step he took.
"Whatdowedowhatdowedowhatdowedoooooooooo!" Scootaloo babbled hysterically.
"I say we go outside and face him!" Sweetie Belle suddenly stated, seemingly fearlessly, before reverting to an understandable state in a situation like this. "That is, if he doesn't try to eat us."
"Ah think we should." Apple Bloom suddenly said. "Sometimes ya just gotta take chances. And as Granny Smith once said: No risk, no reward!" She said confidently with a proud smirk. "So who's with me?"
Sweetie and Scootaloo look at each-other before turning to Apple Bloom.
"If we get eaten, I'm blaming you." Scootaloo warned.
...
Slowly, the Cutie Mark Crusaders left their tree house and climbed down to face the subterranean kaiju, who had just arrived and was standing before them. The three fillies gulp as they looked up at the giant creature. Given that this was the first time they had ever seen a kaiju this close, it was only natural that they would be nervous and scared.
In response, Baragon bend his forelimbs and lowered his head, and stared at the three tiny fillies that stood only five meters away from his face.
"H-Hey there, big guy." Sweetie Belle nervously said with an uncomfortable smile. "What big ears you have?"
"Seriously, Sweetie Belle?" Scootaloo turned to her. "Your going with that line from that story?" she asked in annoyance.
"Well he does have pretty big ears." Sweetie Belle admitted, pointing up at the kaiju.
"Say, do ya have any kind of problem that we can...uhhh...help you with?" Apple Bloom asked nervously and fearfully with a similar grin that Sweetie Belle had.
Baragon continued to stare at the three fillies with a calm look, despite his frightening - and somewhat cute - physical appearance. There was no aggression, hunger or hostility in his amber eyes. After staring at three fillies for seven more seconds, Baragon lifted his head up and turned around, before proceeding to leave the Cutie Mark Crusaders and their club-house without looking back.
The three fillies breathed a sigh of relief at the pleasant sight of the kaiju walking away from them.
"Whew, that was a close one." Scootaloo muttered.
"It worked Apple Bloom, he left!" Sweetie Belle exclaimed happily, turning to her friend.
"See? What did Ah told ya'?" Apple Bloom asked, acting proudly. "No risk, no reward."

Meanwhile, much further away, to the southern side of Equestria.
The older sister of Pinkie Pie, Maud Pie, was camping in a rocky area where she was collecting different types of rocks for her research. So far, Maud had collected several different types of rocks. This time, Maud had moved further away from her camp than usual, where she found a rock that looked similar to her own pet rock, Boulder.
"I think Boulder's gonna like you." Maud said to the small rock before picking it up with her hoof and placing it in her pocket. After she placed the rock in her pocket, the earth pony's mane and tail suddenly began getting blown by some wind from behind, though this did not faze Maud in any way as she calmly turned around to face the wind.
Only thing was, the 'wind' that was blowing her tail and mane was no wind at all, it was breathing... from Anguirus!
Maud Pie found herself standing right in front of Anguirus' horned snout and looking into his brown eyes. Anguirus had bend his forelimbs down and lowered his head to get a better look at the earth pony, who was literally standing inches away from his snout. Most ponies would have been taken by surprise and would have ran away in terror by such an encounter, but not Maud.
She continued looking at Anguirus with her usual blank, neutral expression as if it was nothing new to her.
"Hey, what are you?" She asked with her calm and dry tone.
Anguirus responded by taking a deep breath... and letting out a very loud roar at Maud Pie!
*GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!*
Anguirus' roar was so powerful that it could be heard from miles away, and was also blowing Maud's mane and tail back... all while she still had her calm, neutral expression without blinking an eye or moving a muscle. After the ankylosaur finished his roar, Maud's mane and tail returned to normal while her expression did not change whatsoever.
"Cool." Maud said with her usual dry tone.
Anguirus began to sniff her like a dog would sniff a stranger, and upon doing so, he noticed that Maud had the same scent as another pony he had met in Ponyville - a pink earth pony, to be exact. He surmised that she may be related to that pony in some way - and had no idea how right he was.
"You're kind of cute." Maud said, causing the ankylosaur to rise an eyebrow of confusion.
