//------------------------------// // Friends // Story: Godzilla and Gamera: The Return of Iris // by Godzilla2020 //------------------------------// Iris cackled as green energy danced off of his body. This energy he'd never felt it before it was incredible. His tentacles began to glow as stones began to levitate around him. Gamera was shocked when he felt what was going on inside Iris, sensing the mad creatures sudden power increase. Even without a face Gamera could tell Iris had a smug expression. The orb inside of Iris's skull pulsed before the kaiju disappeared. Gamera didn't have time to register what was happening when he felt a sudden weight on his back. The boulders Iris was lifting fell from the sky landing directly on the turtle kaiju's shell. Off balance Gamera began to tumble into the cliff side. Just then Iris appeared right where Gamera was going to land. Atomic breath shot out of Iris nailing Gamera in the side. He screamed in pain landing hard against the mountain's side his shell was slightly cracked and sizzling. The pain that was going through him insane. Blood was vomiting out of his mouth. The world was getting dark around him. Can't give up not now. There was a weak moan from overhead. Gamera lifted his head up to see a shriveled Godzilla just a few miles away. If he flew he could make it there and at least give Godzilla a minor charge. He had to at least give him a fighting chance. Gamera opened his mouth preparing a plasma filled fire ball taking aim at the fallen king. His legs began to go back into his body. There was a flash and Iris appeared in front of Gamera stopping down on his skull. This was beyond enjoyable to him seeing Gamera in such a pitiful state. He heard the weak calls coming from Godzilla. Looks like he's losing his touch. Easily correctable. Iris wrapped one of his tentacles around Gamera's throat lifting the massive turtle off the ground. Iris began to squeeze down on the guardian's windpipe enjoying the squeaking roar that came out of Gamera. With a quick flick Iris tossed Gamera away. To disoriented from having his throat crushed Gamera was unable to correct himself in the air. He could only watch the world speed by him before crashing into Godzilla. The impact crater that Godzilla had created, when first slammed into the mountain, caved in and both kaiju fell into the mountain. Iris watched on as a feminine laugh was going through his head. His new host was working and the power she gave him was incredible! Vengeance would soon be his and then the world will know true horror. But something felt off inside of him it was weak but he felt something pulse like there was another power inside him. Was it the other human? "Iris what are you doing?" Fallen Light asked her voice echoing in his head, "Let's end this already. I want to burn this world out of existence." Iris stood still he could feel something was wrong inside of him but he wanted to finish this fight. His body began to glow green and he teleported straight to the hole Gamera and Godzilla created. He'll end this now then figure out this new problem later. ............. Unknown .............. Fallen Light smiled she could see everything that Iris saw. She didn't know what these creatures were. But crushing them was giving her great joy. Iris's power was flowing around her changing her body as well. Her wings began to grow black feathers and a horn had grown out of her forehead. Her eyes had a dark glow in them. "That's it Iris kill them, kill them!" She said with a sick laugh. So caught up with her laughing that she didn't notice that the only other person with her was starting to move. Applejack's eyes began to flutter open. There was a glow coming off her body as her pony tail began to grow. Her vision was hazy and there was a hard ringing in her ear. Every time she tried to move her arms they wouldn't budge. "What in the world's going in on?" Applejack thought out loud getting the attention of Fallen. "So you're still alive cow girl." She sneered looking down at Applejack. "Sunset is that you?" Applejack groaned her vision was starting to come back. Expecting to be met by the warm face of Sunset Shimmer she gasped when met with the fanged face of Fallen Light. "Well your half right." Fallen said with a laugh. "Sunset?! Why are you in that form again?" "Simple she chose to take it. After our little heart to heart of course. Oh and could you please not call me that name anymore. I go by Fallen Light now." She flashed her fangs at the farm girl. Fallen looked over Applejack's form noticing that her hair was longer causing her to cock a confused brow. She pulled on her hair looking over her form, "What is this?" "What do you mean she chose to take it? Just who in the hay are you?!" Applejack demanded Fallen just glared at her pulling on her hair again, "Do you mind?! That kind of hurts!" "You should treat those with higher power with more respect. Since this is going to be your last day alive I'll take some pity on you and tell you what I am." "Don't bother I already know." Applejack smirked gaining Fallen Light's attention, "You're just a massive, annoying, pain in the as-gaak!" Fallen Light hissed at Applejack pulling on her hair again. Green flames were practically shooting out of her eyes she held a claw up to her chin. "Mind your tongue you worthless ant! I am rage incarnated! The only reason you're alive right now is because I allow it!" "Sorry but honesty is kind of my thing." Applejack said as her ears began to morph from human to that of a pony. There was magic in every part of this space and it began to flow into Applejack's body. Fallen Light began to back up seeing Applejack take the same form as the night before. Applejack suddenly felt her strength increase and she began to rip away at the tendrils holding her place. "You have the power of an Earth pony?!" Fallen Light shouted as Applejack began to free herself more. The power that was flowing around them and giving Fallen Light her power was having the same effect on Applejack the only difference was the type of magic inside both of them. She knocked the demons hand away from her causing Fallen to hiss at her. "Sunset I thought you wanted to be friends?!" "Friendship is for the weak!" Fallen Light hissed before lunging at Applejack flashing her fangs, "And I am not weak!" She knocked Applejack down growling in her face. "Then what was last night? And why were you so happy when you helped Fluttershy?" Applejack asked causing Fallen Light to stop growling. Her eyes began to change color from having pitch black sclera to solid white along with tears coming out. She let go of Applejack looking into her eyes. When Fallen Light spoke it wasn't her normal cold voice. "AJ help me." "Sunset is that really you?!" "AJ h...h...help m...m...me!" She called again before holding her head, "Be quiet I'm doing this for you! She hates you they all do!" "Now that's a bold face lie if I ever heard one!" Applejack grabbed the demon girl by her shoulders, "Sunset I wasn't lying when I said I wanted to be your friend!" She smiled and spoke again as Sunset but her voice's tone didn't match her body language, "AJ run!" she shouted in a panicked voice that soon turned into a crazed laugh as her eyes turned black again, "Tell me then is this a lie?! She slashed at Applejack who was barely able to dodge in time. The farm girl clutched her bleeding side as Fallen Light continued to laugh at her. The demon licked the blood off her finger tips her other hand had a fire dancing across it, "I am going to burn you alive! Am I lying now AJ?!" Fallen Light shouted with a crazed look on her face. "I really wish you were!" Applejack said dodging the incoming ball of fire. ................ Caverns ................ Godzilla felt the world around him spinning. Each time he tried to move his body it was met with immense pain rushing through his entire body. His vision was hazy but he could feel a massive weight on his body. There was a weak roar next to him along with hard breathing. There was also something warm and wet on his body. Something was wrong but he couldn't figure out was going on. He could only remember fighting Iris and getting hit by a mana ball that he didn't see coming. Then there was a pain in his shoulder and everything went black. Everything was starting to take shape again when he looked up he saw he was inside of some cavern. The only light coming through was from a hole in the ceiling. Along with a strange scent and the weight on his body was still there. When he looked down he finally saw what was on him. The monster king's eyes widen in pure shock at the sight in front of him. Gamera was on top of him blood was oozing out of him and his shell had cracks around it. His right arm was dangling on by his side clearly broken. The giant turtle's eyes seemed to be glazed over each breath he took was agony. The monster had been beaten within an inch of his life. There was a flash of light creating what looked like a miniature sun had just touched down. Two cloven feet touched down on the solid rock floor. Iris had a green glow coming from the orb in his skull and going down his body. The demonic kaiju roared looking over at his two fallen enemies. Godzilla snarled at him as Iris made his way toward them. A green aura wrapped itself around Gamera's body lifting the guardian off of Godzilla's body. Iris brought Gamera down hard on the ground and stepped on his head. Godzilla roared in pure fury as he tried to stand back up but pain shot right through his body. His body felt like it was on fire each bone felt like it was going to snap in half. But the sight of Iris cracking Gamera's skull was driving him into a fit of pure rage. Godzilla ignored the pain as he slowly rose back up to his feet. His back spines barely making a glow due to his low power. But he didn't care seeing his friend in danger was causing his rage to spike even higher. Iris took notice sensing the massive spike in hatred coming from Godzilla. But that wasn't the only thing causing Iris to stop attacking Gamera there was something wrong in body. He felt off there was something going on inside of his body. He felt something wrong with his host and there was something else inside of him. There was a power growing but it wasn't helping him. He also felt heat inside of his body. Iris didn't have time to think matters over as a rampaging Godzilla came straight at him. The enraged titian ripped his jaws open and a weak atomic breath came out. It barely did anything to Iris who just shrugged it off. Iris took a step forward getting ready to end Godzilla but he stopped. The heat inside of him was growing it was insane and painful. Iris roared out in pain as green flames began to erupt from his body. What's going on?! .................. Unknown ................ Fallen Light was growling as she sent another ball straight at Applejack who dodged out of the way. Green fire began to pour out of her as she raced after her target. "Sunset come on I know you're in there!" Applejack cried out. "Shut up and die already!" Fallen Light yelled pouncing on Applejack. She smiled as Applejack cried out as her shoulders began to burn, "How about we turn up the heat?" Fallen had flames coming out of her burning everything around the two girls. Fallen Light was laughing as she saw Applejack cry out in pain. She continued laugh but suddenly felt something warm in her heart. The warmth soon turned to searing heat. The demon girl feel off Applejack clutching her chest, "What's going on?!" Applejack watched as Fallen Light looked like she was having a heart attack. Suddenly a shriek went off in the darkness and everything began to shake. "They feel the same pain." A soft voice echoed in Applejack's head. "Who are you?" "No time! You must make her use more fire if you wish to save your friend!" The voice spoke quickly. Applejack hesitated at the thought after nearly being turned to ash not only seconds ago. But then she thought back to Sunset pleading for her help. "I...If you say so." She sucked up her courage and rose back as Fallen Light began to rise herself, breathing heavily. "Don't worry Sunset I'm going to get you back!" "I won't let you!" Fallen shouted as fire began to shoot out of her body more. She was beyond angry at this point the pain she felt in her chest combined with Applejack constantly fighting her was starting to get to her. At this point her rage was starting to break. She looked like a rabid animal. Foam was coming out her mouth followed by an animalistic howl. She fired a searing blast straight at Applejack who dodged out of the. But it did hit something which caused another tremor around the girls. There was a cry pain that came from all around it matched only by Fallen's only scream. She clutched her chest falling to her knees. But her eyes were trained on Applejack staring daggers into the farm girl. Applejack on the other hand was starting to see what was going. "Hey you couldn't hit the board side of a barn." She shouted trying to antagonize the demon even more. Which was easy to do as Fallen roared at her. ..................... Back in the fight ................... Godzilla watched Iris with a shocked expression. The mutant Gyaos was had green flames shooting out of his body and was roaring in pain. It began to shoot out of his body like one Godzilla's nuclear pulses it was hot enough to burn the rocks around them. Godzilla had to take a step back to avoid having his weakened body burned. Iris wasn't paying attention as he began to stumble around his body still on fire. Another pulse of fire went off this one larger than the others. Godzilla couldn't avoid the blast so he braced himself ready to be burned. But the flames never touched him it didn't even seem hot inside the cave. Iris was to busy with the flames on his body to notice the large form rising up behind him. Godzilla looked on in shock as he low roar echoed through the cavern. .................. Unknown .................. Fallen was starting to get closer to Applejack panting she ignored the pain coursing through her body. Applejack was able to keep on her toes due to a slight increase in her speed but was starting to get tired. She could tell how long she'd been playing extreme dodge ball but was starting to get to her. Fallen let out another fireball it didn't hit Applejack but it was able to trip her up. Applejack tumbled giving Fallen the chance she needed. The demon rose her hand up facing towards Applejack, who was getting out of her daze, Fallen smiled. "Goodbye cow girl." Fallen got ready to incinerate Applejack but there was something stopping her. It was a pressure on her cheek small at first but then it began to grow. Her cheek began to sting then a hard pain started to rocket across her face. She screamed as she was suddenly sent flying back. ..................... Back in the fight ................... Iris roared out by the sudden sucker punch to the side of his face by a green fist. The kaiju was sent flying back into the hard stone wall the one who punched him let out their own roar. Godzilla was shocked but also happy to see what was going on. Standing in front him was Gamera fully powered. The green flames that were shooting out of Iris earlier where dancing around the turtles body and flowing into his mouth. The wounds Gamera suffered earlier began to close up. He had no idea what was inside those flames but they tasted incredible and the power they gave was incredible. Gamera's power had increased and he was ready to release every bit of it on Iris. Godzilla roared over to his ally. Gamera returned it but looked shocked to see Godzilla's state. His body was skinny and starting shake due to having his energy drained. Godzilla was trying his hardest to play it off but Gamera could tell he was in pain. A ball of plasma built up in the back of his throat. Before Godzilla could react Gamera fired engulfing his upper body in plasma filled fire. Godzilla began to absorb it into his body like a sponge. His muscles began to build back up, back spines lighting up, his tail beat on the ground cracking the hard rock. Godzilla the king of the monster was back to full strength and letting out a roar that shook the earth. Iris was starting to rise back to his feet the flames on his body starting to simmer out. He was met with the sight of the Guardian and the King standing in front of him. Both took a fighting stance this fight they were both ready to end this fight. Iris may have a power advantage over them but Godzilla and Gamera both had something else to bring to the battlefield. They both had trust in each other.
