The meteor was flying right on top of the train, looking like it was about to fall right on top of it. Like a blazing rocket, the meteor flew by the train, narrowly dodging the rocky spires that outlined Appaloosa's dusty landscape.
"That fiery rock's gonna hit the center of Appaloosa!" Pinkie exclaimed.
"Is there any way to stop that space rock from crashing?" Applejack asked.
"I don't think there is a way to stop it!" Twilight replied. Like a bomb striking a military bunker, the massive meteor smashed into the ground, triggering a massive explosion that consumed everything in its radius. Celestia's horn glowed with a golden aura before she teleported herself, the Main Six, and the conductor away from the train right before the locomotive was obliterated by the blast. Everypony wheezed and gasped in exasperation from the sudden teleportation before turning towards the enormous smoking crater where the meteor hit.
"That must have been a pretty big meteor...." Rainbow said, overlooking the crater. Smoke billowed from the center of the cater, shielding whatever was inside from everypony's sight. At that moment, two squadrons of Celestia's soldiers arrived at the scene, clad in full armor and wielding spears and other weapons.
"We came as soon as we could, your highness." Said one of the squad commanders.
"Thank Faust. Now, we just need to...."
The sound of rapidly spinning rotor blades turned everypony's attention to a large metal airborne vehicle landing just a couple of feet from the crater. After a few moments, Onix jumped out from the cockpit with a rather displeased look on his face.
"You surprised me, Celestia. Who would've thought you of all ponies would pull a dirty trick like that? Heheheh." Onix stated in an amused tone before approaching the group with his horn ignited and ready to fire. Celestia gave the stallion a hard glare before turning towards him.
"Onix, listen to me, we don't have time for your absurd quest for vengeance. You need to leave now before..."
"Before what? Your little soldiers subdue me and take me in like last time? Whatever you have to say to me, just don't. I ain't gonna...."
A deep growl emulating from inside the crater was enough to freeze everypony in their tracks. Turning to the massive hole in the ground, everypony peered into it.
"What was that...? Rainbow asked. Another series of growls escaped the crater before an enormous golden tail tipped with huge razor-sharp spines unfurled itself as it rose over the crater.
"No, dear Faust… Everypony, get back!" Celestia ordered, watching in terror as the Titan inside the crater began waking up. Following its tail, a huge draconic head sporting a crown of long curved horns attached to a long serpentine neck rose out of the crater, letting out a guttural snarl. A second head rose up right after its twin and began inspecting its surroundings. And then, finally, a third head appeared. The center head sported longer and more curved horns on its head than its two “siblings”, along with a huge scar running down its right eye. The center head snarled as it bared its huge razor-sharp teeth, scanning the environment with its blood-red eyes before locking its sights on the tiny multi-colored equines below. Twilight's pupils shrank as she backed up, feeling a wave of panic and fear well up in her chest. The center head snarled as it focused its sight on Celestia, a glimmer of recognition in its eyes. Whether it thought it was looking at Queen Diurna or her descendant didn't really matter to the beast as the center head began to snarl angrily while flaring its horns in a threatening manner. Celestia looked in the golden Titan's eyes, seeing nothing but hatred in them. The center head snarled before grabbing the attention of the two peripheral heads, looking back down on Celestia and barring its huge razor sharp teeth at her. With a shrill cackle, the three-headed dragon-like Titan climbed out of the crater with haste. The Titan unfurled its massive wings as it stood upright on two lean but sturdy legs ending in digitigrade avian-like clawed feet. Celestia and the other ponies backed up as they glanced at the six hundred forty-five foot tall Titan standing before them.
"G-G-Ghidorah..." Twilight stammered.
"My goodness, just look at the sheer size of that monstrosity...!" Rarity gasped, hiding behind Rainbow.
"You kidding me? That thing's nothing but a big three-headed noodle. He doesn't look so tough at all. I can totally take him on!" Rainbow exclaimed with a rather misplaced boost of confidence.
"Then why don't ya go on and fight that monster yourself?" Applejack retorted in an annoyed tone. Almost immediately, Rainbow lowered herself to the ground while nervously rubbing the back of her head.
"Uh, well... I think we should let Celestia's soldiers fight it. I, um, don't wanna steal their thunder and all...." Rainbow nervously said with a sheepish smile.
"Uh huh, sure." Applejack replied. Onix kept dumbfoundedly gawking at the enormous golden Titan looming over everypony, feeling several drops of sweat running down his forehead.
"This thing is huge... No matter, I'll kill it anyway! OPEN FIRE!" Onix commanded.
"ONIX, NO!" Twilight screamed. However her voice fell on deaf ears as the unicorn soldiers under Onix's command ignited their horns as they fired multitudes of magical projectiles at Ghidorah. The three-headed Titan merely growled in annoyance as the projectiles bounced off his scaly hide, the stinging magic bullets barely even putting a dent in his rough scales. Ghidorah's left head grabbed one of the soldiers in its jaws and began swinging him around in an almost playful manner, much to the soldier's absolute terror. Ghidorah's center head grabbed onto his childish twin by the horns and yanked it around, forcing it to drop the unicorn. The center head angrily screeched at the left head in a manner much like a pony scolding his younger sibling. Ghidorah snarled, motioning to his two peripheral heads before glaring at the tiny ponies. Their throats began to glow with an intense golden light that travelled up towards the heads' jaws. Celestia took notice of this and unfurled her wings and placed a shield around herself and the Main Six.
"GET BACK!" Celestia yelled to everyone else.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
With a loud shriek, Ghidorah fired three huge golden super-charged beams of lightning at the soldiers, tearing the ground apart with the gravity beams while completely vaporizing several very unlucky soldiers that couldn't move out of the way. Ghidorah kept bombarding the soldiers with his gravity beams until he was interrupted by several annoying bullets fired at his right head's face.
"Take that you stupid flying gecko!" A unicorn soldier outfitted with a jetpack yelled as he kept firing more magic projectiles at Ghidorah. Ghidorah growled in annoyance, his right head opening its jaws and vaporizing the soldier with a single gravity beam.
"I refuse to just stand by and watch as ponies are being slaughtered!" Celestia exclaimed before dispelling her shield and taking to the skies. With a war cry, Celestia began bombarding Ghidorah with a relentless assault of golden magical projectiles. Ghidorah shrieked at the white Alicorn in annoyance, directing his wrath at Celestia. Celestia yelped as she quickly dodged the three gravity beams, only to be smacked out of the air by Ghidorah's right wing.
"CELESTIA!" Twilight exclaimed, using her magic to levitate the princess in the air before she could hit the ground and then set her down. Celestia groaned in pain as she sat up and tried catching her breath.
"Thank you, Twilight..." Celestia said. Ghidorah's terrible screech turned everypony's attention back to the golden Titan, who was now making a beeline towards the Main Six and Celestia.
"It's coming towards us!" Fluttershy yelped, hiding behind Celestia. Ghidorah screeched loudly as he charged towards the group, murder in his eyes. He was dead set on enacting vengeance on Celestia for spending the last several thousand years locked away in a meteor. Right before the golden Titan could kill the group with another set of gravity beams, the ground below him exploded in a large cloud of dust and chunks of rock as three very familiar sets of huge jagged maple leaf-shaped dorsal spines shot up out of the ground and threw a hilariously baffled Ghidorah off his feet before the rest of the creature climbed out of the hole he made. Letting out a deep guttural growl, Godzilla shook off stray chunks of rock from his back before taking a quick downward glance at Celestia and the Main Six. Fluttershy herself quietly smiled in joy as she looked upon the towering reptile standing before them.
"That's some mighty fine timin' there, big fella!" Applejack hollered while tipping her hat. Upon close inspection, the farm pony noticed Godzilla's significant increase in size and muscular build.
"Did Ah say big, or HUGE? Cuz I don't remember Godzilla bein' this big." Applejack stated.
"Is it me, or has Godzilla been hitting the gym for the past two years?" Rainbow said, gawking at the saurian in awe.
“This is just incredible. Godzilla's constantly growing in size and mass, and this won't stop until the day he dies. And his dorsal spines grew back and took on a more prominent shape, perhaps to be able to store more nuclear energy in his body.” Twilight stated with scientific interest more than anything. While everyone was still gawking at the newcomer, Onix got back on his feet from narrowly dodging one of Ghidorah's gravity beams, turning his attention towards the atomic saurian.
"That damn lizard's still alive?! Hot damn, he's so much bigger than last time...!" Onix exclaimed in disbelief. Godzilla took notice of Onix, locking his gaze on the rusty red stallion with an icy glare. Onix suddenly felt even more sweat run down his head. There was an undeniable fact that Godzilla had immediately recognized the former sergeant. Godzilla snarled as he bared his teeth, narrowing his eyes. Oh, he definitely recognized Onix all right. Godzilla would’ve stomped on Onix as payback for what happened last time they met, but there was bigger fish to fry. Instead of obliterating Onix, the saurian closed his maw and snorted, turning his back towards the stallion. Godzilla growled as he faced Ghidorah, who had snapped out of his confused stupor and stood back up. With a bone-chilling hiss, Ghidorah stood at his full height, unfolding his wings to their full length in an attempt to look twice as large as Godzilla while simultaneously rattling the spines at the end of his twin tails. Godzilla, in turn, snarled as his dorsal spines began flashing with neon blue light in a similar threat display. Both Titans began sizing each other up for the inevitable fight waiting to break out. With a deep growl, Godzilla made the first move and immediately charged Ghidorah.
“SKREEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOONNNNNGGGGGGK!!!” Godzilla roared as he raced towards Ghidorah.
“SKREEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRGGHHHH!!!” Ghidorah screeched as he rushed at the saurian in a similar fashion. Both Titans collided into each other with so much force, their impact generated a small shockwave that knocked spires off their roots and sent everypony sprawling into the ground.
"Ack! So much... power!" Twilight exclaimed.
"SKREEEEOOONNNGGGK!" Godzilla roared angrily as he punched Ghidorah's right head away before grabbing hold of his center head. Ghidorah's right and left head clamped their jaws on Godzilla's left arm and neck, trying to rip the saurian's grip away from the center head. Godzilla snarled with pain and fury, clamping his jaws on the center head's neck and sinking his teeth into it. The center head shrieked in pain as Godzilla began thrashing Ghidorah around. Ripping the two peripheral heads off his body and grabbing all three heads, Godzilla dragged Ghidorah around before slamming him into a stone pillar and shattering it to pieces. Onix was very unfortunate to be standing so close by, and screamed as he tried to run out of the way.
“OH SH-” Onix yelped, only to be cut off when a chunk of rock hit his head and knocked him unconscious. Ghidorah screeched, flapping his wings and sending a powerful gust of wind that shoved Godzilla back before the three-headed Titan shot up and lunged at Godzilla, latching all three jaws on his neck and shoulders again. Ghidorah shoved Godzilla back, much to the latter’s dismay and frustration. Godzilla kept wildly clawing at one of Ghidorah’s necks as he tried to force him to let go. The atomic saurian snarled, slamming his feet on the ground and digging trenches in the rock in an attempt to anchor himself to the ground. Ghidorah’s throats began igniting with golden light once more and before Godzilla knew it, he was blasted at point-blank range by three supercharged beams of lightning. Godzilla roared in pain as he was sent sprawling into the ground, sending rocks and dust flying with the impact.
“SKREEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!” Ghidorah shrieked, charging up his gravity beams once more. Godzilla noticed a huge chunk of rock in reach and snarled, grabbing it before throwing the rock at Ghidorah’s center head. Right before Ghidorah could fire another volley of gravity beams, the rock smashed into his center head, knocking it to the side and causing it to accidentally fire a gravity beam at its right head. Ghidorah’s right head screeched in pain before snapping at the center head angrily. The two heads were so busy fighting each other (and ignoring the left head’s alarmed screech) that they didn’t notice Godzilla charging at the Titan. Godzilla rammed into Ghidorah’s gut, knocking the wind out of the hydra’s jaws before clamping his jaws on Ghidorah’s center head again. Ghidorah unfurled his massive wings as he took to the air with Godzilla still holding on. However, due to Godzilla's added weight, Ghidorah found himself unable to fly far while Godzilla held on to his center head for dear life. Godzilla snarled, pouring out all of his strength as he slammed Ghidorah into the ground with great force. Ghidorah got up, screeching angrily as golden lightning licked the corners of his jaws.
“SKREEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!” Ghidorah screeched with pure animalistic rage. Godzilla roared back at the hydra with equal fury, igniting his dorsal spines in response to Ghidorah's threat display. With a snarl, Godzilla opened his jaws and fired an intense streamlined beam of nuclear fire at the three-headed Titan. Ghidorah screeched as his heads swerved in different directions while dodging the deadly nuclear heat ray, retaliating by firing a volley of fully-powered gravity beams out of all three heads right at Godzilla. Godzilla screeched painfully as he was shoved back by the full force of the gravity beams, screeching in surprise as he fell into the crater and disappeared from sight, much to Celestia's and the Main Six's dismay.
"NO!!" Fluttershy cried out. She immediately ran towards the crater at full speed, only to be abruptly stopped when Ghidorah slammed a foot on the ground and blocked the pegasus' path.
"AAAHH!!!" Fluttershy shrieked while backing up. Ghidorah snarled as his center head bared its teeth at the cream-colored mare, opening its jaws to devour the pegasus whole.
"FLUTTERSHY!!!" Twilight screamed. Before Ghidorah could even attempt to eat Fluttershy, the golden Titan suddenly spun his heads around, shrieking in shock as he witnessed Godzilla climbing out of the crater.
"SKREEEEEEEEEOOOONNNNNGGGK!!!" Godzilla roared with fury, charging at the draconic Titan. Ghidorah screeched as he unfurled his wings and jumped in the air, taking to the skies. However, Godzilla managed to clamp his jaws on one of the Titan's tails and began pulling the Titan back towards the ground.
"SKREEEEEEEEEAAAAAAARRRRRRRRHHHHHH!!!!" Ghidorah shrieked, slashing at Godzilla's face with his talons. Godzilla shrieked in pain as Ghidorah's talons carved into the saurian's forehead, leaving behind a bloody gash. Godzilla was forced to release Ghidorah from his grip, grunting with pain as he fervently shook his head. Ghidorah screeched loudly before rising high into the sky and finally disappearing into the clouds. Celestia stared at the sky with fear on her face, letting out a heavy sigh.
"Dear Faust… He’s free...." Celestia softly spoke with a shaky tone in her voice, standing up to face the small group standing before her.
"We cannot allow Ghidorah to reach any populated area at all costs. Follow me, we have to use the flying machine Onix travelled on." Celestia said. As the Main Six hopped on board, Celestia noticed an unconscious Onix lying on the ground several feet away from them. Celestia immediately rushed to the stallion's side, using her magic to levitate Onix to the flying vehicle before boarding the transport herself. Godzilla rushed back to the hole from which he emerged, hellbent on pursuing Ghidorah.
"SKREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNGGGK!!!!"
Onix, you big dummkopf! When are you going to realize revenge is and will always be meaningless?! You can’t go around playing god when literal ones exist!
