Here's my newest story. As I said before this has OC characters, but some Godzilla characters are mentioned or seen (you'll have to wait) in the story. This is a story trying to promote (I can't draw worth crap so artwork isn't an option for promoting) my newly created couple-pairing of Gigantis(who'll you'll meet later)XMerida. When you hear who Gigantis is, you'll be wondering how on Earth this pairing even works, but like I said, you'll have to read the story. Now, this takes place in a universe I created on my own, so events from previous years will be mentioned. If you want, I can upload a timeline of all the events that take place. Anyways, I hope you like my story (and hopefully my pairing when it comes to that time). There is some language. Also, I tried to get the dialogue and the overall plot with the characters in Brave as best as possible, but I'm not too good at remembering most of the dialogue, so bare (no pun intended) with me on this. I'll try my best to get the dialogue as close as I can to the movie's. Read on and remember to review. I don't own Brave or Godzilla, but I guess I technically own Jason/Gigantis, Gzilla, and Mephy (the one that appears in this story, not the actual Sonic the Hedgehog character)'s personalities (and Jason's human form's image) even though they have the forms of Toho and Sega characters.

Update: Fixed the grammatical and spelling errors in the story, as well as fixed it up a bit.

Grauman's Chinese Theatre

Hollywood, California

It was almost half an hour past one in the morning in Hollywood, and at this time a very large amount of people were just now exiting the theater. Included in that crowd was a very unusual-looking group consisting of three members; a teenage boy, a six-foot tall dinosaur, and a three-foot tall humanoid-hedgehog-looking creature.

The teenager was know as Jason Gojira, better known as the world famous kaiju Gigantis. Unlike most humans, Jason was able to morph into a 190 foot tall kaiju he named Gigantis, as well as have size-changing powers. He was five-foot seven, had dirty blonde hair, and a cute, as well as recently shaved, face. He wore a blue Sonic the Hedgehog T-shirt with matching blue jeans. The story of how Jason gained these phenomenal powers is a tragic one. Before he was born, Jason's parents had enlisted in G-Force's new experiment to combat the giant kaiju who plagued Japan. Taking part in an experiment, they gained the power to change their sizes, explaining how he can change size. How he became part Gojiran is the sad part of his story. He was six when the Baltans, a race of aliens looking to conquer Earth to make it a colony world for their ever growing population) attacked Earth, specifically Japan, in 2000. Since the aliens' attack was so close to their home, Jason's parents joined Godzilla (who was the son of the second Godzilla known to humanity) and Ultraman in the battle. Wanting to watch his parents in action, young Jason snuck along, but witnessed his parents mercilessly get beaten down, and ultimately executed by the evil aliens. Enraged by the death of his parents, Jason activated his size-changing powers for the first time and managed to kill three of them while they were surprised by his presence. The leader of the Baltans mortally wounded the child and left him for dead. Retreating back into the stars, Jason could only watch his parents' murders flee before being noticed by Ultraman. The Nebula M78 warrior called Godzilla over, and with the blood and cellular tissue of Godzilla coursing through his veins, Jason morphed into the kaiju he would later call Gigantis, but only for a brief second before morphing back into his human form. With no other family, Jason followed Godzilla back to the island he was currently living. Taking the kaiju-morphing human in as his own child, Jason became Godzilla's adopted son. Ever since that day, Jason has stayed wherever Godzilla was.

The story behind the six-foot dinosaur was similar to Jason's. Like the him, it used to be a human too, a male to be specific. G-Force was trying to replicate the process that made Jason who he is today, but when the man was experimented on, it was a partial success. He had lost his human form, but still could speak English and other languages, but was stuck being a Gojiran. He had all the powers and abilities of a Gojiran. While he regained his size-changing ability, he couldn't grow very large, 12 feet being the maximum height he could grow to. Not knowing what to do with him, they took him to the island Godzilla and Gigantis were on at the time. Befriending both monsters, the failed experiment became one of Jason's best friends, as well as gaining the name Gzilla from him. Gzilla lived with the two monsters, even traveling to Monster Island in 2005 when they were transported there. Gzilla looked like a Gojiran, but his face and dorsal plate pattern looked much different from Godzilla and Gigantis'. ((Note: He looks like the MegaroGoji))

Last, but most definitely not least, was the humanoid hedgehog-looking creature. His name was Mephiles the Dark. Well, not the Mephiles the Dark from the Sonic the Hedgehog games. Mephiles had some traits as the video-game Mephiles, but in actuality, he was a semi-good, semi-evil demon. Mephiles had been cast out of Hell by the Prince of Darkness himself because he had ran his mouth to Satan, which pissed the Devil off. Luckily for Mephiles, Satan actually liked Mephiles, so as punishment, Mephiles simply had the mouth on his face ripped off and he was forced to roam the Earth forever (it was a much better punishment than having his body ripped apart constantly every moment of every day down there). Being forced out of Hell and onto Monster Island, Mephiles eventually found, and soon became friends with, both Jason and Gzilla. Mephiles discovered the Sonic character Mephiles and took a liking to his form, despite its small size. Mimicking it perfectly, Mephiles enjoyed his new form. Although he, Jason, and Gzilla hadn't been friends for long (2 years to this day), he considered them his true friends, forgetting about the ones he had in Hell. Mephiles liked to float around a whole lot, seeing it as a whole lot better means of transportation than walking, especially since it was hard to keep up with his friends when they were bigger than he was.

"That was the best movie ever," Jason said as he and his best friends exited the world-famous theater. Jason was talking about the movie Brave, which just had its midnight premiere. "Thanks for bringing us here Mephiles."

"Meh, no problem," Mephiles replied. Mephiles had the power to create portals to travel across time, space, and to other universes and dimensions, as well as anywhere he wanted to go. That was how they were even in Hollywood.

"Eh, it was alright," Gzilla said. "I mean, if it wouldn't have been for Jason dragging me here to see it, I probably wouldn't have watched it."

"I found it boring," Mephiles flatly said.

"I can't believe you managed to almost sleep through the entire film. We could hear you snoring," Jason said.

"I'm not into Disney movies. I like my movies with a steady dose of violence, blood, and fighting."

"This movie had...like two of the three...sorta," Gzilla said, trying to make Brave sound somewhat appealing to Mephiles. Then he got a smirk on his face once he looked away from Mephiles. "Man, Elinor looked pretty fine for someone her age. Too bad she's married," he said with a chuckle.

"Like she'd ever go out with you," Mephiles said, not being able to hold back laughing at Gzilla's comment.

"It could happen..." Gzilla muttered to himself.

"I thought Merida looked cute, pretty, beautiful, sexy—"

"Stop him before he goes on a 'Love for Merida' streak," Mephiles said, interrupting Jason.

Rolling his eyes, Jason ignored his friend's comment. As they turned a corner to find a more secluded place for Mephiles to take them back to Monster Island, Jason thought of something. "Hey, I just got an idea."

"What is it?" Mephiles asked.

"How about you take us to Merida's universe?"

"No. Not gonna happen."

"Why not?" Gzilla asked, a little bit interested in Jason's idea.

"Because that universe takes place in the past. Way, way back in the past. Where there is no technology."

"Oh for the love of God," Gzilla said, rolling his eyes in annoyance. "We can't have the little demon be away from technology for a bit now, can we?" he asked sarcastically.

"Damn straight," Mephiles said, despite knowing Gzilla was being sarcastic. "Plus, I'm not going to watch him oogle over some red-haired princess, and you over a woman who's too old for you," Mephiles said, crossing his arms across his chest. He was determined to stay in this universe no matter what.

"Please?" Jason asked, looking at him pleadingly.

"No," Mephiles repeated, turning his back on him.

"Please?" "No." "Please?" "No." "Please?" "No." "Please?" "No." "Please?" "No." "Please?" "No." "Please?" "No." "Please?" "No." "Please?" "No."

This was getting real old, real fast to Gzilla. After hearing this nonstop for a minute, he had finally had enough of it. Grabbing Mephiles by his neck, he forcefully turned the demon around to face him, glaring at him while his right eye twitched a bit. "I swear to God if you don't freakin' take us there, I am going to hurt you so bad you won't be able to move, think, or eat food normally for a month! And more importantly, if you two don't stop bickering back and forth, I might just snap and beat both of you down!" His right eye twitched again, showing how close he was to the breaking point.

Mephiles blinked his eyes a couple of times in fright. Maybe he could leave this universe for a little while, as long as he wasn't brutally beaten within an inch of his life by Gzilla. "Yeah, sure, whatever you say," he said. "Just put me down so I can take us all there."

Smiling in satisfaction, Gzilla released Mephiles' neck with a smile. "Good demon."

Just as he was about to create a portal, Mephiles stopped and looked at Jason. "What about your father? Shouldn't you tell him we're leaving?"

Jason hadn't thought of that. "Oh...I don't know. You don't think he'd care if we were gone for a couple of days, do you?"

"Well, he knows that you're capable of handling yourself, but I have no idea about your mom," Gzilla said. Jason's adopted mom, Autumn Gojira, was a kaiju-morphing human like himself, but she was a giant phoenix instead of a Gojiran.

"You think I should call her?" Jason asked, reaching for his cell phone.

"Probably," Gzilla said.

Pulling out his cell phone, Jason called his mom's cell. As the phone rang, he could see Mephiles getting impatient. The demon had his arms folded across his chest with an annoyed look in his eyes. Finally the ringing stopped and he heard his mom's voice. "Hi mom. Um, the movie's over, but I was wondering...do you think it'd be alright if Mephiles took me and G to visit Merida's universe?" Listening to his mother's response, a smile appeared on his face after he heard her answer. "Oh thanks mom. We promise to be safe. Love you, bye." Jason hung up and put his phone away. "She said it's alright."

"Finally," Mephiles said. "Bad enough we have to go to this backwater, technology-less universe, but to tease me by having me stay here in this universe rich with technology and have me wait? That's just wrong."

"Oh quit complaining and get to making that portal," Jason said.

A purple swirling portal was created in the palm of Mephiles hand, and when he threw it in front of them, it grew to a much bigger size so that all three of them could enter it. "Alright, lget going." Mephiles began floating towards it, but stopped when he heard Jason's request.

"Set it to take us to when Merida was little."

Turning around, Mephiles raised his right eye ridge at him. "Why on earth do you wanna go back that far? You turning into a pedophile on us or somethin'?" he asked, laughing at the last part. He couldn't resist asking that, especially when he asked to go visit a six year old girl.

"No! I just wanna see her when she was little," Jason said in annoyance.

"Whatever you say pal," Mephiles laughed as he made the necessary changes.

"I'm not a pedophile damnit!" Jason shouted. Thankfully no one was close to where they were so no one heard this whole conversation. He walked into the portal, but not before punching Mephiles' arm for that pedophile remark.

"Ow! You know I could change the destination and send you to Alaska!" Mephiles shouted at him. Gzilla said nothing, but shook his head with a chuckle before entering. Mephiles was the last one in, and when he entered, the portal automatically closed itself, sending the three best friends to DunBroch.

10th Century

DunBroch, Scottland

It was a beautiful and sunny day out in the Castle Green. It was princess Merida's 6th birthday today, and as per usual, her family went out to the green to celebrate it. While King Fergus was getting Merida's birthday present, the birthday girl and her mother, Queen Elinor, were playing hide-and-seek. "Where are you?" Elinor called out to her daughter, looking around for her. "Come out! Come out! Come on out! I'm coming to get you!"

Merida was hiding under the wooden table nearby, trying hard not to giggle so she wouldn't alert her mom to where she was. She watched her mother get closer and closer to where she was.

"Where are you, you little rascal? I'm coming to get you!"

Seeing Elinor was near where she was, Merida quickly dashed out from under the table just as Elinor darted her head down to look under there.

"Hmm. Where is my little birthday girl, hm? I'm going to gobble her up when I find her!" Turning around, she saw Merida run away as fast as her little legs could, but Elinor was much faster. Snatching her up playfully, she gave Merida a tight hug and laugh. "Now I'm gonna eat you." After pretending to 'eat her,' she put Merida back on the ground just as Fergus returned from their tent with his bow. As he placed it on the table, Elinor made sure to tell him her distaste in that. "Ach! Fergus, no weapons on the table!"

Little Merida ran over to the table where the bow laid and looked up at her father. "Can I shoot an arrow?" Picking it up off the table, she tried to hold it in her arms. "Can I? Can I? Can I? Can I? Please, can I?" Due to the bow being roughly the same size as she was, she couldn't hold it for long and she fell on her behind, laughing.

"Not with that. Why don't you use your own?" Fergus said before handing her a small bow designed for a child's use. "Happy Birthday, my wee darlin'!" he said happily.

Merida gasped with enthusiasm and smiled widely. Taking the bow, she ran over to where a target had been set up for Fergus to use with his bow.

As Elinor walked over to Merida with Fergus, she didn't exactly looked thrilled about Fergus' present to her daughter. She didn't want to say anything to Fergus in front of Merida though.

Copying how her she saw her father fire a bow, Merida loaded an arrow in and pulled back on the string.

"That's it lass, all the way back to yer cheek," her father instructed.

Letting go of the string, the arrow went sailing through the air...unfortunately, it sailed way over the target and into the nearby forest. She watched this with a disappointed look on her face. "I missed..."

"Well, go and fetch it, then," Elinor told Merida. She watched her little girl run off into the forest before turning around to scold Fergus. "A bow, Fergus? She's a lady!"

"Oh let her be," Fergus said, waving her off with his hand. "She likes archery, just like her old man," he said with a laugh.

Elinor turned back to watching her daughter entering the forest. "I just hope she can grow up to be more like a princess and not so much like her lold man."

"I'm sure she'll turn out fine, lass." Fergus gave his wife a comforting hug.

As Merida walked through the forest, she looked all over for her arrow, as well her surroundings. The forest looked beautiful. She enjoyed being outdoors, especially when her parents were with her. It had been only a few minutes before she nearly walked into a floating, blue flame. Gasping, she stepped back. "A Will o' the Wisp." As quickly as it appeared, it took off, tempting Merida to chase it. And that she did. Laughing happily, she followed the blue flame.

Way ahead in the forest, a large purple portal appeared out of thin air, releasing three new travelers into DunBroch. Walking into the forest, Jason, Gzilla, and Mephiles took in their surroundings and looked around. Mephiles turned around and watched his portal close behind them. "Goodbye world of technology. I shall miss thee."

"Oh stop being so melodramatic. I'm sure even someone like you can find something to do here," Gzilla said. "Now, would anyone mind telling us where we are, because to me, it looks like we came smack dab in the middle of nowhere inside the forest."

Something caught Jason's eye as he and the others looked around for hints as to which part of the forest they were in. It was the arrow Merida had shot as a little toddler. It was embedded in the side of the tree, just like it had been in the movie. "Hey," he said, getting their attention. Pointing to the arrow, he said, "That's Merida's arrow. She couldn't have fired that too long ago, which means—"

"She should be here any minute," Mephiles finished.

Looking at both Jason and Mephiles, Gzilla asked them a very important question. "What if she remembers seeing us when she's older? I mean, she could remember this when we go when she's a teen."

"I don't think so. She's only six remember. I doubt she'll remember hardly any of this, more or less us," Jason said.

"You remember what happened when you were six," Gzilla stated.

"Yeah, and plus, we're freaky-deeky looking. If I saw people looking like we do if I was her age, I don't think I'd forget it," Mephiles added.

"First of all: …freaky-deeky? Where did you get that from? Plus, I'm normal-looking," Jason said matter-of-factly.

"Oh yeah, a Sonic the Hedgehog shirt and jeans match so perfectly with 10th Century Scottland," Mephiles said flatly, sarcasm dripping from his voice.

"And secondly," Jason continued, ignoring his comment, "I'm sure she won't remember us. Just trust me." That was when the Will o' the Wisp leading her there came, stopping in front of them. Looking at the group, it made a weird noise. They couldn't do anything due to hearing Merida running their way.

Looking at the Wisp, Gzilla whispered to his friends. "Anyone else creeped out by the noises those thing's make?"

"Shh, she's coming," Jason whispered. "Look like you're doing something." Jason went over to the tree with the arrow and looked like he was studying it. Gzilla looked at the ground, pretending to look at some tracks. Mephiles just floated there and watched the little girl come over.

Seeing the Wisp by the tree near her arrow, as well as three strange people she'd never seen before...well she didn't know what to call the floating creature and the greenish black wingless dragon. Wanting her arrow back, she bravely crept forward to them. "Hello..." she said softly, hoping they weren't going to hurt her. She didn't like the way the floating one kept looking at her; it was creepy! It didn't even have a mouth!

Upon hearing her hello, Jason and Gzilla turned to face her. "Hi there," Jason said in a pleasant voice. Awww, she looks even more adorable realistically than she did CGI wise, Jason thought as he gave her a smile.

Gzilla gave her a tiny wave, moving each of his fingers as he did. Mephiles just studied her. Seeing how uncomfortable he was making Merida, Gzilla elbowed the demon's shoulder. "Knock it off, you're scaring the kid," Gzilla hissed under his breath. "Fine," Mephiles hissed back. He gave a little wave to her and made a happy face using his eyes.

Having also seen Merida getting uncomfortable, Jason spoke to her again, this time in a soothing voice. "Hey, it's okay. Don't be scared. We won't hurt you, I promise." He smiled at her reassuringly to calm her.

Smiling back at him, Merida felt more relaxed. She could trust him. "Okay." She walked closer to Jason. She felt more comfortable around him. "Who are all of ya?"

Looking at each other with nervous glances, they hadn't really had time to think of something to tell her who they were or why they were there. "We're the...um..." Gzilla began, but was luckily saved by Jason. "We're the arrow retrievers. We retrieve arrows people lose for them. It's something we do out of kindness."

Merida tilted her head at them, wondering why she had never heard of these 'arrow retrievers' before from her parents or anyone in DunBroch for that matter. "Arrow reclaimers?"

"Yeah," Jason said. He turned to the tree where Merida's arrow was embedded in and gave it a quick tug, pulling it out. Smiling at her, he bent down to her height level and gave her the arrow back. "Here's your arrow." As she took it, she smiled at him and he spoke to her again. "Now go on back to your parents. The forest isn't all that safe by yourself and I'm sure your parents are probably worried about you."

"Okay," she said with a smile. "Thank you arrow retrievers," she said as she ran back the way she came, waving goodbye to them.

Once she was out of sight, and hopefully out of hearing distance, Mephiles turned to Jason. "Smooth cover, dude." He quickly made another portal in his palm and threw it in front of them, the portal expanding in size like the previous one did. "We ready to go to when she's a teenager or do you wanna go to when she has her first period?" he asked sarcastically.

"Two things dude," Jason said, looking at him with angered annoyance. "One: slag you. Two: just take us to when she's a teenager smart-ass."

"Wait," Gzilla said, getting the attention of his friends. "Aren't we gonna help Fergus fight Mor'du?"

"We can't," Jason said. "Fergus is old enough to actually be able to remember us. He'll get mighty suspicious if he sees us later on and none of us have aged. I wish we could help, but I don't think we can."

"Oh yeah," Gzilla said. Without saying anything else, Jason and Mephiles entered the portal. Before he entered, Gzilla looked back at the direction Merida had came and left in. He managed to make it in before the portal closed.

Everything had gone downhill when Merida returned. One second she was telling her and Fergus about seeing a Will o' the Wisp and...arrow reclaimers, whoever or whatever they were, the next, the demon bear Mor'du burst out of the forest and came straight at them. Fergus and some of his guards went to battle the bear, telling her grab Merida and take her back to the castle as fast as she could. All she could think about as her horse carried them back to the castle was if her husband was going to be alright and if he would survive. Her fears proved correct when Fergus returned with his guards. One of his legs was missing, bitten off by the demon bear. All the while he cursed Mor'du, vowing to get revenge on him for what he did. As she and Merida followed the guards helping Fergus, she hoped the same thing.
