After writing two Godzilla fic about my OC, I've decided to take a step back instead of another step forward. I remember there are some glaring plot point since the first Project Ghost story that need to be address, so I decided to roll back the clock to around a decade to start writing the origin story of how it all began.
Chapter 1: Revenant Revival
It has been 2 years since the events of Tokyo SOS, with Godzilla buried in the Japan Trench life has changed for anyone who was in the know a few years back. With Godzilla no longer a threat and their prized weapon, Kiryu MechaGodzilla buried himself with Godzilla, the JXSDF deactivated the Kiryu Squadron. Its members has since been reassigned to various other duties, but the matter did not go to rest that easily. The scientists behind Kiryu were given a case file study to determine the details behind Kiryu's berserk. The details of the report were censored, no one is to know what it pertain but they might find out much sooner than they thought.
Japan Trench, Japan, January 2nd 2006, 18:00
Deep under the ocean, where memories are buried and forgotten, where all animosities are laid to rest. The Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force constantly patrol the water around the burial site of the cocooned Godzilla. Day and night, air and sea, the Japanese keep a constant eye on the trench, making sure that the King of Monsters will never rise again to terrorize their homeland once more. A Soryu-class Submarine moves through the thick body of water while keeping its sonar system on at all times tracking for any movement coming in and out of the trench. As the ship approach the trench, the sonar operator stares into the screen in front of him, making out the details of the ocean floor, until he notice almost instantly, a change in verticality. The sonar scanner shows him a huge drop in height at the burial, suddenly the silhouette is much smaller than the one from the previous patrols. To add up to that, he can only make out the familiar sonar signature of the cyborg beast laying still at the bottom of the trench. "Captain, anomaly detected at the burial site! Repeat anomaly detected at the burial site!" The message is delivered to the captain like wild fire spread by the wind, the commanding officer of the vessel quickly snaps to his station and reply, "What does it look like Yoshi?" He said to the ship's intercom.
"Sir it looks like we've got ourselves a huge drop in verticality. I don't see 'G' anywhere inside the trench." The captain swallows his own breath when he heard the report over the intercom. He grabs a pencil and some rulers and plot the sub's course around the trench for additional patrol pattern. "Anything else I need to worry about?" the commander asked while drawing his course around the trench. "Yes sir, I think I saw some sort of footprint on the ground. Looks like there was a struggle sometimes before. I hate to break this to you but I think 'G' must have broken out of the cocoon." The sub commander stare into his vessel's scope and to his and Japan's worst nightmare, it does seem like Godzilla has broken free from his imprisonment, the cocoon has been flipped upward and an enormous hole can be seen, the tears have a pattern of going outward. Obviously no one can hide this turn of event, the news once reached the surface, spread like wildfire. The public panics and demand protection, the Japanese government struggle to find someway to protect the Land of the Rising Sun from another rampage by the King of Monsters.
There seems to be no credible method to protect Japan except for a clearly suicidal, yet potentially effective deterrent against Godzilla, MechaGodzilla, namely Kiryu. For three months, the Japanese National Diet debate over how to protect Japan, until finally, they all cave into PM Igarashi's proposal of drench up Kiryu and reinstate its squadron. Some opposes this idea, they fear that the mechanical beast's tendency to go berserk would be worst than Godzilla. But in the end, they too have no choice but to allow the plan to go through. For the remainder of the year, the JMSDF cooperated closely with the JXSDF, providing logistic and heavy transport ship, drenching up Kiryu from the trench. They transported Kiryu back to main land Japan using a combination of air and surface transport, the White Herons were not available to them at the time, so the Japanese have to improvise with whatever they have. And yet it wasn't enough, the JXSDF have to rushed the White Herons out of their storage and refurbished for a hasty recovery operation. Eventually, they were able to bring Kiryu back to the old MechaGodzilla hanger for a Hodgepodge of ground crew to perform emergency repair and maintenance after two long years of neglect and attempts to move on from their stormy past. For some of the ground crew, there was a mixture of joy and frightening Dred as they know that at anytime upon activation, Kiryu might go berserk on them and destroy the base with them inside. Computer software were upgraded and new components were domestically produce to upgrade Kiryu to a more plug-and-play standard.
Sometimes later...
Dark void is all that he can see, his mind is frozen and he can't will his limbs to move. There is neither nose nor smell for him to hear or sniff. For however long he can remember, it was all just simply a limbo, his consciousness froze in place and have absolutely no idea what will happen to him. Until suddenly and without a warning, he can finally feel his fingers, he balls up his fist and let his hand splay out for around 4 times before his eyes can open, strangely enough, Gojira found himself lying what seems to be a beach. He picks himself up and look around only to find the sight is very strange and surreal to him. The sea is endless as far as the eye can see, there is no wind which is odd considering the fact that out at sea whenever he's on an Island there is always some wind blowing in and around him. The sun is also another strange feature in this world, it is continuously blocked by the endless stream clouds. The sky has a green tinted to it, but he can still feel a warm atmosphere almost like heaven around him. He takes his first steps around the oasis finding that his space of living is limited at best, cramped at worst. As he walks around, he found that the oasis has one large stone portal, the other side of the portal is a realm of numbers and amber background. He dare not cross over into the portal, fearing what might happen to him there. But as he stands still and take in the view he felt the presence of another being around him. His ears perk up and his nose sniff the air for strange smells.
Then he flinches at the strange humming sound from behind, he quickly turns around and find that the being suspected of looming around him is strange looking creature. It has floating armor plates around it, forming a silhouette of a the mechanical body that Gojira found himself in some years earlier. Within its body and on its eyes, it has a glowing amber yellow light, shining outwards to Godzilla, its tail sway side to side similar his own. Gojira looks at the metallic creature in the eye, trying to decipher its intention as it stares back blankly at Gojira himself. He can feel an emptiness of purpose resonating from this creature, but when it extends an arm to him, he quickly batted off its hand and try to launch a fist into its face, only for it disappear into the thin air. He is stunned by how did it escape his sight so easily, his ears pick the familiar sound once again to his side, he swings his tail to the right in anticipation of his "Opponent" arrival only to miss once again. The creature reappears once again in front of him, its expression is as blank as ever but he can feel it has no intention of hurting him so neither should he hold any similar desire to eviscerate it.
"What are you?" He asked it, raising his voice for the first time, to his surprise he can speak his mind for the first time. "Well, answer me." He demanded, waiting for an answer from the golden metallic creature in front of him, only to be reply with a hand gesture. The creature points its finger towards the portal behind him, he follows the direction of the finger to the gate between the oasis and another otherworldly realm. "You want me to enter that?" He inquired the creature and it nods its head, feeling that he has no choice but to comply, he enters the portal to see for himself, what is on the other side and where will he ended up in.
