Hey guys, sorry for the huge delay. My life is so busy I don't have half the time to write like I use to. I apologize for all future delays.

"So, what do we do?" Anguirus asked. Godzilla had relayed all that Miki had told them. Each of the faces that looked to him had an expression of worry. Never had they imagined that anyone could have discovered their secret. Now, everyone they loved could be at risk.

"We lay low," Godzilla responded. "As far as we know, none of our identities have been found out. Mothra, I need you to send a message out to all our kaiju and tell them they must choose a life to lead for a little while. We can't run the risk of anyone finding out who our human parts are."

The giant moth nodded in response and flew out of the cave mouth.

"But what do we do about the situation?" Anguirus asked. "How do we even begin to shake the humans' suspicion?"

"Give it time," King Caesar responded. "Human minds are very forgetful. I guarantee you that it won't be long until they either forget that notion or come up with some other crazy idea about us."

"Let's also not forget that most of their leaders don't even believe in Ghidorah's theory," Gamera added. "That can only help us in the long run."

"Correct," Godzilla said. "I want us all to also make every effort to show that our kaiju mean no harm to the humans. Do not enter their cities unless in human form or if one of my brother's deluded followers is attacking. Show them that we are here to protect them."

Every head in the circle nodded their agreement. Just then, Mothra reentered the chamber. Though it was impossible for her face to actually show any emotion, her eyes had a much dimmer light to them, a clear sign something was troubling her.

"Mothra?" Manda said. "What's wrong?"

"I had trouble reaching the others," she responded. A heavy silence fell over the chamber. Mothra never had trouble with her telepathy. The only thing that ever stopped her was another strong telepath blocking her.

"Kiryu, grab MKG and Gorosaurus and circle the island!" Godzilla ordered. "Find out if Battra is anywhere in the vicinity. If he is you are authorized to use any means necessary to take him down."

Before Kiryu could exit the cave, Mothra put up a wing to stop him.

"No, this doesn't feel like a mental wall," she said. "Whenever my brother, or even Spacegodzilla, tried to stop me, I not only felt another presence but communication was completely impossible. I got through but everything sounded like a whisper. Not only did I have trouble hearing their responses, but they had trouble hearing me."

"What do you think it is?" Manda asked. As a magic based kaiju, she would have some understanding of what was happening to Mothra. "You aren't losing your powers, are you?"

Godzilla looked over and just saw Caesar and Gamera, the two other magic kaiju in the room, send each other nervous glances.

"I don't know what else it could be," Mothra said in response. "How or why though is a different story."

"Were you injured at the last battle," Kiryu asked.

"I was, but I doubt that's it," Mothra replied. "My magic allows me to heal fast and any powers effected by body movement would quickly be effective again. Plus, magic as a whole is not effected by the condition of the body. If your mind deteriorates is when magic is affected."

The others looked at each other nervously at those words.

"I assure you guys my mind is fine," Mothra said. "Something like that takes time to affect my powers. This was too sudden.

"Then what could it…" Anguirus began. Just before he could finish his sentence, a bright light shown down on the kaiju. Out of the light came two small women, even smaller than normal humans. To them, they would have been no bigger than dolls. If had not been for the kaiju's impressive vision they would not have been able to see the women at all.

"The Shobijin," Rodan muttered. Silence once again fell on all assembled. The two women floated down, coming to a rest right in the center of the kaiju gathered.

"Greetings kaiju," the twins said simultaneously.

"Welcome little ones," Godzilla said. "Have you come to give a reason for Mothra's diminished powers?"

"We have," the girls said. "Mothra is in perfect mental and physical health. This decrease in power has nothing to do with her and everything to do with us."

Every kaiju in the room looked at the girls quizzically.

"How?" Biollante asked. "You two have been dead for twenty-one years and nothing happened before."

"We still had some degree of connection to this world," the girls responded. "While we had no physical forms, we had our full power and were still bonded to Mothra."

"Why does that matter?" Anguirus asked.

"Each female divine moth requires a pair of Shobijin to increase their power," Mothra responded. "Without them, we would be just giant insects. It puts us at least on par with our much more powerful male counter parts."

"Precisely," the Shobijin continued. "For each female there is, there will also be a Shobijin pair. The two will remain alive as long as their moth does, but they can be killed prematurely, as we were. Once that happens, the earth will find a suitable pair to replace them, usually sisters. Until that time, the previous Shobijin will stay connected to the world and their moth."

"So, this means there are two girls out there who are in the process of becoming Shobijin," Rodan concluded.

The girls nodded. "Once our power has completely transferred to them, we will pass to the spirit world and Mothra will be at her most vulnerable. If she is not bonded to them before the next full moon sets then her powers will be gone forever."

"How do we do that?" Gamera asked.

"I must return to Mothra island with the new Shobijin and they must sing the "Song of the Moths" while each keeping a hand placed on one of my antenna."

"There is another danger here," the girls continued. "The Shobijin can also be bonded to a male. The ritual is much more gruesome, ending with the death of the girls and the complete absorption of their powers. If that happens, then the male becomes much more powerful and the Shobijin will not be revived until the death of the male.

"Do you think Spacegodzilla knows this?" Manda asked, concern clear on her face.

"No doubt," Mothra responded. "My brother knows everything to do with the Shobijin. Remember how often the girls were in danger during the last war? Constant attacks were made on them, with several near misses.

"I thought they were just trying to weaken you," Kiryu said.

"That was just a small portion of their plan," Mothra replied. "More than likely they were trying to enact this process so Battra could become the next Gigamoth."

"What does your father have to do with this?" Gamera asked.

"He had absorbed a Shobijin pair," Caesar replied. Each pair of eyes opened wide in shock.

"My mother died not long after Battra and I were hatched," Mothra began to explain. "Her Shobijin willingly offered their power to our father before they too met their fate. Very rarely does this happen but at the female's death, a male could take the Shobijin and absorb their powers. This does not halt the cycle in any way but does create the most powerful of divine moths. Eventually two more would be made and given to the next female."

"So Battra wants to ensure that no other Shobijin would be created to challenge him," Godzilla said thoughtfully. "Not a bad strategy."

"This complicates things though," Caesar interjected. "Now we need to find these girls before Spacegodzilla's forces do. And with humans hunting us we can't use our kaiju powers. Are there any easy ways to find out which girls they are?

"Couldn't you two tell us?" Biollante asked the two Shobijin.

"Unfortunately, no," the girls responded. "We are never told who it is that takes our powers, just that new avatars have been chosen."

"That makes no sense," Gamera said. "Can't you feel some sort of connection to them? Why couldn't we just use that as some manner of homing beacon?"

"We can only stay here for a limited amount of time," the Shobijin replied. "It would take too long to find them. And soon our connection to the world will be severed completely. We are sorry, but you are all on your own." With those words, the girls vanished.

"Well that was no help," Kiryu said. "What are we supposed to do now, go to every pair of twins in the world and see if they are showing some types of power?" Every head in the chamber turned to Godzilla and Mothra.

"I may be able to detect them myself," Mothra said after some thought. "They are supposed to be bonded to me and that may give us some sort of connection to each other."

"Until then, keep your eyes peeled," Godzilla added. "If any of you see anything strange, report back and definitely let Mothra know what you've found. Relate this to everyone else as well. We need as many eyes and ears out there as we can get. The sooner we find them the better, not to mention that means my brother won't get his hands on them. Now head home and get some rest. We'll meet up again soon."

Everyone exited the cave out into the night. A full moon glowed above them, lighting up the night sky.

"Anguirus, Rodan, Kiryu can you three stay back for a minute?" Godzilla asked. "There are some things I want to discuss with you."

Worried, Manda shot a concerned glance over her shoulder. Godzilla just smiled in response.

"Mothra, can you make sure she gets home?" he asked. "If it's not too much trouble I'd also like Becky to stay with y'all as well."

Mothra nodded. "It shouldn't be a problem."

"What's wrong Godzilla?" Manda asked.

"Hopefully, nothing," Godzilla said gently. "I just need to insure a few things with them and I'll be home shortly. Don't worry Manda."

Reluctantly, Manda turned around and followed Mothra to the shore.

"I can't believe this is happening," MKG sighed. Gorosaurus couldn't help but feel sorry for his friend. He knew what it was like to have a father turn on you. Back in the rebellion with Orochi, his own father had been key in rallying many kaiju to the usurper's side. Not only that, but Gorosaurus had nearly been killed by Burning Godzilla during the battle that ended his father's life. Even though MKG's father had sided with Spacegodzilla over twenty-one years ago, it still wasn't easy for the giant cyborg to accept Ghidorah's betrayal.

"I'm sorry my friend," Gorosaurus said, laying a clawed hand on MKG's back. "It's not easy fighting against the kaiju who raised you." At that, MKG looked up, shame written across his three faces.

"I forget your own father nearly killed you," he said. "I shouldn't really be complaining huh."

"It's okay," Gorosaurus said. "It took me awhile to really wrap my mind around it."

"Yeah, I remember," MKG said. "How'd you do it anyway? What made you accept Burning Godzilla's betrayal?

Gorosaurus took a moment to respond. "I guess just comfort in what I was fighting for. My father's motives were purely selfish, a thirst for power that would never die until he had it. Our fight was noble, defense of the world and all the creatures in it."

MKG nodded at those words. "That makes sense. I'll try and think that way too. It won't be that easy but maybe one day I'll learn to fight my father with no hesitation."

"I wouldn't go that far," Gorosaurus interjected. "He is still your father and if you relished in the thought of killing him, that would make you no better than he is. Godzilla taught me that."

Again, MKG nodded. "You're right. I will get to the point where I can and will fight him with all I have. However, I don't think I could ever kill him myself."

"Whatever happens, happens," Gorosaurus said. "Let's just hope it doesn't come to that."

A moment of silence passed between them. Suddenly, MKG lifted his middle head, its mechanical ears hearing something Gorosaurus could not.

"Our replacements are on the way," he said. "I hear turbines firing."

Sure enough, after a moment, Gorosaurus could hear what sounded like two large jets heading their way. It wasn't long until Jet Jaguar and M.O.G.E.R.A. came into view and landed in front of them.

"Did you guys hear the news?" M.O.G.E.R.A asked on touch down. "Pretty intense stuff huh."

"Yeah, we heard," Gorosaurus said. "Pretty heavy stuff. You guys ready for your shift guarding Sg?"

"Yep," Jet responded. "Was all quiet tonight as usual?"

"Other than the whole council showing up for a meeting, yes," MKG said. "Though, I have a feeling being Spacegodzilla's guards is going to get a little more exciting from here on out."
