Chapter 11
A/N – I'm tired. Done with high school finally. Surprise! Now you realize just how much worse my writing can get. Or better. Who knows. Anyways, that last chapter was meant to come out just as match 100 came out on KaijuX's channel but I got lazy. Oddly enough, this story apparently almost rivals RWBY Lied in favorites and follows. I really should be writing that dodgeball chapter for that but I will need to rewatch the show to refresh my inspiration for that story. AAAANNND as of this sentence, I am another month late as it has past the Fourth of July. Also, I realize nobody really cares for the authors notes and just want to go read the chapter so, ONWARDS TO THE KING OF TERROR VS THE SMOG MONSTER! Read by a cat lady.
Disclaimer: I don't own RWBY or any KWC matches on this story so far. I do own the KWC Banners I created however. Each match belongs to their writer and I own nothing but my creativity, stupidity, and insanity. Also, I own my OC Nagoda who basically kidnapped Team RWBY and can't say anything against this disclaimer since he may not return until plot demands him to be. Between Pepsi and Coke, I prefer Dr Pepper.

"Match 11: King Ghidorah vs Hedorah , by Thomas Singleton. Banner by Christian Salabert. I feel this is going to become a normal thing just like Forrest Fruend matches"
The banner changed once more as it showcased the familiar sight of Planet X. Flying above the ground was a three headed golden dragon while opposing it was a greyish, reddish, and greenish yellow colored tar looking thing.
"It's a three headed GOLDEN DRAGON!" Ruby shouted in amazement at the beautiful yet terrifying sight that was King Ghidorah. "It's so shiny".
Weiss stared at the other creature in disgust at the horrid look it gave off. Meanwhile, Yang stared at the banner for a bit before coming to a realization.
"Doesn't that dragon resemble Desghidorah somewhat?" she asked as Blake pulled up the monster bios for information. The usual empty space appeared as the roster of kaiju appeared. Blake quickly located the various King Ghidorahs and brought them forth showcasing the various types of Ghidorah.
"King Ghidorah, the King of Terror, the Three Headed Monster, and the Destroyer of Worlds. Those are just some of the titles for this powerhouse of a kaiju. He comes from space apparently" Blake started as five different versions of the creature came forth. Many had the same typical designs yet one also had mechanical components on it. "King Ghidorah's first appearance was in Ghidorah, the Three Headed Monster and took the team up of Godzilla, Mothra, and Rodan to defeat him making him one of the most famous of Godzilla's enemies". A short clip of Ghidorah facing off against Godzilla, Rodan, and a Mothra Larva appeared briefly before that era of Ghidorah disappeared. "King Ghidorah would later go on to inspire other creatures that would share the Ghidorah species such as Desghidorah and Keizer Ghidorah". The many Ghidorahs were then replaced by the Heisei era version of the creature.
"However, for the KWC, they use the Heisei era of the creature including the more powerful Grand King Ghidorah". At this, both golden hydras appeared in the black space as they let loose their terrifying roars. "The King Ghidorah in this match is the Heisei era King Ghidorah who fought Godzilla. This one was originally three separate beings known as Dorats who were fused together by nuclear testing, replacing Godzilla in the timeline. However, the creation of Godzilla was a fixed point in time causing a more powerful version of the creature to be made as a result". Three small monkey creatures with King Ghidorah's body then appeared on the girls' laps causing them to coo at them. Zwei barked at the creatures realizing they were a threat to his existence as best pet. The Dorats then flew up as Zwei went to follow when they suddenly fused together becoming King Ghidorah. At this, Zwei quickly ran back to the couch before making himself comfortable in Weiss's lap, staring at Blake who was currently scooting away from the dog. "I'll go over Grand King Ghidorah when we get to his first match, but King Ghidorah's abilities consist of Flight, Gravity Beams, Hurricane Winds, Constricting necks, and Microwave impulses. He is 140 meters tall and weighs 70,000 tons but would later be rebuilt as the cyborg Mecha-King Ghidorah".
Yang whistled at those stats as she stared up at the golden dragon in awe as it fired off its gravity beams.
"I'm placing my vote on King Ghidorah winning!" Ruby said as she moved about in awe. She could barely contain her excitement for the oncoming match and the chance to ride atop the golden hydra.
"As a person whose name can mean little dragon, I also want to put my vote on King Ghidorah" Yang said "But, I will wait to hear Hedorah's abilities".
"As much as I may hate to say it, I'm with Yang on waiting before choosing a side" Weiss said as Blake nodded. She then flipped the pages over as the golden dragon was replaced by the toxic pollution known as Hedorah.
"Hedorah, the Smog Monster, is an alien lifeform that landed on the Earth after passing by on the Ikeya Comet. Hedorah has multiple forms that change and evolve depending on the amount of pollution he devours which also increases the toxicity of his body". As Blake was speaking, the various forms of Hedorah began to move about."Huh, there is a Monster Analysis Page for him, that seems like something interesting to know". She shrugged her shoulders passing over the analysis to continue reading from the Bio.
"Hedorah is known to be able to merge with his other forms, which consist of a water, land, and flying form, to become his most powerful Final Form". At this, they became witness to the Hedorah life cycle. The water form swam about in polluted waters before becoming the land form, eating smog and smoke. It then flashed as it changed into its flying form as it released a mist that melted the people below it. Ruby and Weiss screamed as they watched people melting away from Hedorah's mist as Weiss fainted.
"I should have mentioned that he has a sulfuric mist in his flying form that dissolves almost everything below him, unless they are kaiju which in this case suffocate them". Hedorah then flew over Godzilla causing the king of the monster to fall over in pain as he breathed in the corrosive smog. "Hedorah is known to be one of the strongest kaiju of the Showa Era. His abilities consist of a Crimson Eye Beam that has corrosive effects, a corrosive body, acidic sludge, being an extraordinary jumper, varying toxicity levels, radiation immunity, and the ability to combine or divide into his water, land, and flying forms". Hedorah then went on to showcase his abilities, firing his eye beam at the ground causing a pillar of toxic smoke to rise. He walked over some cars as the metal corroded under him as he fired off small toxic sludge from his body. To end it off, Godzilla appeared in a ditch as the smog monster released sludge from its body onto the radioactive kaiju.
"Is he-"
"Don't even say it Yang" Weiss said, stopping Yang from completing her sentence.
"But he just took a dump on another kaiju! Literally!"
Everyone groaned at this as the room returned to normal.
"As much as I don't like him, My vote is on Hedorah" Weiss said.
"I agree with Weiss. Hedorah seems way to overpowered" Yang said sitting down. She was about to take a bite of some popcorn before remembering the dissolving bodies. "I'm going to not eat for this reading" she said pushing the snack away. Blake shrugged at this, taking a bite of some popcorn as she began reading.
The dark recesses of space looked down at the jagged and twisted terrain of Planet X. Hovering in an orbit of its own; the gigantic presence of Jupiter loomed in outer space. Streaks of light glistened off the shiny rocks of the alien world-only they were not the light of distant stars or Jupiter, but the illuming awe of a three-headed beast.
"Oh yeah, here we go!" Ruby said as the world changed around them. She quickly sped off as soon as she could before realizing she had no idea where to go. Warping back to the room, she waited for Blake to read some more.
Covered with golden scales that wrought beauty and terror, the creature released a hideous cackle. Long, slender heads swayed back and forth. Three heads, covered with golden scales that gleamed with golden power, hung on top of three separate necks that stretched out of the beast's chest. On each head, three horns stuck out. On each side of the dragon's body, were long, bat-like wings. In each mouth, hundreds of sharp teeth poked out from the top and bottom shafts of the jaws. Red eyes blazed from each of the dragon's eyes as it observed the mysterious land.
"Nice description" Blake said as Ruby and Yang both jumped off the invisible panel towards King Ghidorah's center head. A white glyph appeared between the sisters, knocking them both away and onto the two side heads. As they grabbed hold, they turned upwards to find Weiss slowly descending down as she sat on the center head.
"No fair!" Ruby whined as Weiss stuck her tongue out at her partner.
In one dimension, the creature's counterpart had ravaged this land and claimed it as its home. But now, in this universe, the creature was superior. Standing erect at 75 meters and weighing 49,500 tons, the ground itself struggled to hold the creature's weight. Another cackle escaped its reptilian vocals and the three headed beast now claimed this world as its own.
"Wait, those measurements are wrong" Yang shouted up. A note appeared in her hands. "Fifty Meter class roster" she read before the note flashed into flames disintegrating. She then held her nose as a horrid stench hit their noses.
"What is that horrible stench?" Weiss said holding her nose with one hand. Meanwhile, Blake couldn't smell any of the bad stench as a small panel on the table revealed an air filtration system only for the room. Below, her three team members suffered the smell as she continued reading.
King Ghidorah now had a place to call its own in the ever expanding universe.
But something was amidst. King Ghidorah hissed as it sensed the arrival of another. Its stench was repulsive, even from a great distance away. Flapping its mighty wings, King Ghidorah lifted its body off the ground and manipulated the gravity itself. Now flying through the skies of Planet X, King Ghidorah yearned to meet this intruder head on. If the dragon possessed the eyes of a human, all it would've been able to see was the blackness of space; however, equipped with the keen eye sight it possessed, King Ghidorah could spot a meteorite like object. Only its surface oozed with sludge and decay. King Ghidorah cackled and cleared out of its path, allowing it to descend to its planet. Striking the ground, cauldrons of smoke rose from where it had landed. Even in an environment without oxygen, the stench was still there. King Ghidorah's shared conscience wished that this thing would've landed somewhere else. But it hadn't.
"Oh god the smell is horrible!" Yang said as she nearly fell off the left head. "I'm going back to the room" she said as she disappeared into particles. Reappearing on the couch, she noticed the smell was gone and sighed in glee.
"You Quitter!" Ruby said with her nose plugged. "Come on King Ghidorah! You are an intergalactic dragon king so you must win this" she said patting the dragon on the head. She then quickly pulled out a small scale from the dragon as her eyes glittered. Placing the scale in her pocket, she then kicked the head as if trying to get the dragon to move. She wasn't prepared for the sudden movement like Weiss was though.
With an ear shattering cackle, King Ghidorah dove from the sky and circled the extraterrestrial object. From its six prying eyes, the dragon could see sludge detaching from the sizzling space rock. At first, the sludge was only the size of the dragon's foot. But it soon grew and became larger. Whatever it was, it was alive and King Ghidorah was not the type to share its territory with another. Saliva dripped from each of King Ghidorah's jaws and surged with electrical power. A torrent of gravity beams discharged from each head and struck the sludge, covering it with sparks and bright flashes of light. But when the lights dimmed down, the sludge was still expanding and enlarging itself. King Ghidorah hissed with rage and flew to the unearthly ground. Bending all three heads down, drool dripped from King Ghidorah's carnivorous jaws as it inspected this strange organism. But to its surprise, the sludge morphed into a strange octagon shaped creature. Toxic exhaust propelled out of the creature's abdomen.
Ruby immediately fell from the dragon's head as it dove down. Though she had fallen, she managed to grab hold of the dragon's tail as it swung her around wildly.
"How's it going Weiss!" She shouted up.
"What?" Weiss shouted back. The two then continued to shout towards each other as Blake palmed her face.
"They do realize that they have scrolls with the room's function of allowing everyone to speak to each other right?" she said as Yang watched the twos antics, not remembering a certain redhead had broken hers. They then watched as Weiss quickly held her hand to her throat as she was immediately sent to the room above in a coughing fit. Her aura wasn't working properly as Blake and Yang noticed her body slowly corroding away. A loud beep was heard as a holographic panel appeared, showing the word Detoxification. It shot a beam of healing green light into Weiss as it started to renew her body. After a couple seconds of panicking, feeling her skin regrow, and choking, the heiress found she could breath again. She screamed out in agony the moment her breath cane back causing everyone to stare at her in worry.
"What was that?" she shouted out taking large gasps of fresh air. "I thought we were protected from damage in these matches".
The panel then changed showcasing the words 'Updating Protective systems' before a note appeared in their hand.
"We had forgotten to account for any gaseous attacks, only working on physical damages. We apologize for any intense corrosive pain of the inner organs. Have a free soft drink on us, courtesy of Pepsiman". As soon as she read the note, Blake noticed something on the ground below.
"What is that?" she said pointing downwards towards a dust cloud as the Pepsiman Theme Song began to play. On the planet's surface, a silver and blue humanoid figure was running across the vast wasteland that was Planet X. Its speed rivaled that of Ruby as it continued to run towards them. Flipping in the air, it quickly landed on the platform revealing it to have no facial features. It's right side up from the hip to the left shoulder was completely silver while the remaining parts of his body was a deep blue. He had a silver chain around his neck and on his chest was a circle logo with red, white, and blue.
"Shwaaaaa" it shouted as a circle opening appeared on its face, showing its mouth. Holding out a hand, the sound of soda pouring was heard as all the girls suddenly found they had a bottle of a drink called Pepsi in their hand. Nodding, it turned to run, only to fall and land on Hedorah's sludge. Getting up with his body melting somewhat, the superhero of Pepsi held a thumbs up before running off into the galaxy to bring Pepsi to all those who needed him.
"Well that was… odd" Weiss said as she heard Ruby shouting in the distance about the mysterious superhero as she held onto her drink. Blake took a sip of the drink finding it similar to that other Coca Cola Drink that was stored in the back before returning to reading.
King Ghidorah howled in pain as it felt its lungs burn from the creature's exhaust. In rage, King Ghidorah wildly spat a barrage of gravity beams at the flying creature. The gravity beams washed across the creature and a shower of sparks became the result of the dragon's assault. This was no ordinarily creature. No, this was the smog monster, Hedorah. Hedorah turned and flew towards King Ghidorah, leaving a toxic trail in its wake. In this form, Hedorah was covered with decaying flesh. The flesh if exposed to light was dark brown and made up of millions of microscopic organisms. In the center of the red eyes were tiny black pupils. King Ghidorah didn't care what the beast looked like; all he wanted was it to be slain. Clenching its sharp teeth, King Ghidorah flew straight up and continued to spat his gravity beams. Only showers of sparks blocked King Ghidorah's vision of Hedorah. But like before, when the sparks died down, Hedorah was still coming; unaffected.
"Holy Crap! I did not expect Hedorah to be such a Tank" Yang said as she watched the smog monster wade through the gravity bolts.
"Isn't he only immune to radiation? How is this not hurting him?" Weiss asked.
Blake shrugged her shoulders in confusion before coming to a realization. "Maybe that came at a later time period and that this power was assumed to be for all beam weapons?" She questioned as she continued to read.
A scarlet laser shot out of the top of one of Hedorah's eyes and slit into King Ghidorah's hide. Golden scales were blasted away from the rest of the dragon's sizzling flesh. Bellowing screams of pain and agony escaped each of King Ghidorah's mouths. In retaliation, King Ghidorah flapped his gigantic wings and created a strong gust of wind. Like being struck by a hurricane, Hedorah was blown out of the sky and splat against the ground. King Ghidorah furiously rained down gravity beam after gravity beam, turning the entire area of where Hedorah had fallen into a light show. Now the terrain of Planet X had been spliced into dozens of smoldering craters. From all those craters, sludge oozed out and sought the other. They soon formed and Hedorah was reborn. But as King Ghidorah flew through the air, cackling with rage, Hedorah took on another form.
The three watched the Golden dragons assault on the smog monster finding just how angered it was at Hedorah.
"This is just like whenever Yang uses her semblance after someone messes with her hair" Weiss said watching the barrage of Gravity Bolts hitting the planet.
They then watched as multiple piles of sludge began to slide and move about towards one another. Weiss was disgusted as she heard the squelching noise they gave off as Hedorah reformed his body.
"I really hope there aren't any Grimm out there with abilities like this" Yang said staring at the muck as it piled onto each other. "A Grimm that can reform its body by being goop would be hard to kill". The others nodded with her as the distant cheers of Ruby could be heard in the distance.
Neon glows quickly enveloped the edges of Hedorah's body as it grew larger and larger. Within only a few seconds, the smog monster stood larger than before. King Ghidorah's feet slammed into the planet's crust, which caused it to stir. The sight of the three-headed dragon caused Hedorah to lift its left palm up and howled a watery gurgle. Was it a sign of peace? No, to King Ghidorah there was only death. Gravity beams tore into Hedorah's body and blasted chunks of its polluted flesh off the smog monster. Another gurgle came from Hedorah, but this time something strange was happening. The skin around Hedorah's shoulder manifested and formed an opening. With a loud splat, a ball of smoking acid flew from Hedorah's shoulder and struck King Ghidorah's abdomen. King Ghidorah's eyes narrowed at his forming wound, which was sizzling with smoke and flesh. The three-headed dragon reared its jaws back and released a blistering cry. Now King Ghidorah's wings were slashing through the air and the dragon flew three times faster than the speed of sound. The dragon rammed its body against Hedorah's own and slashed its razor sharp wings through Hedorah's flesh. But just as King Ghidorah had dipped any of its body parts into Hedorah's skin, it had no choice but to pull back. Whenever it touched Hedorah, its skin would burn its own!
"Finally he's doing damage!" Yang said as she watched chunks of flesh fly from Hedorah. As soon as she said that, they all watched as sludge shot onto the dragons body, corroding away at the golden scales.
"I guess if your body is your greatest attack and is basically muck, it would make sense to fire off globs of acidic sludge at your enemies to beat them down" Weiss said.
Anger flourished in King Ghidorah's combined conscience and the three-headed fiend fluttered his wings and leapt back. King Ghidorah spat another torrent of gravity beams, which struck Hedorah's body. Hedorah's eyes widened and a loud watery cry came from the smog monster. As King Ghidorah continued to douse Hedorah's body with its electrical beams, smoke churned from Hedorah's contaminated flesh. While Hedorah's flesh was being blown off, waves of electrical power flashed across the smog monster's body. A horrible stench, even viler than the last, filled King Ghidorah's nostrils. The stench was enough to cause King Ghidorah to cease his spree of attacks and pull back. As the three-headed beast pulled back, Hedorah raised both of its arms and released a loud, painful cry. The electrical bolts that had raided its body had stopped and now Hedorah turned its frightful gaze towards King Ghidorah. From each eye, a bolt of rippling power was released and grazed King Ghidorah's body. Golden scales ruptured off King Ghidorah's body and the three-headed beast could only cackle in agony.
"Drying him out is a good strategy against Hedorah since his weakness is electricity" Weiss said as she watched the assault of gravity beams.
"Woohoo! Burn that pile of sludge to the ground!" Ruby shouted from the battlefield before being flung off King Ghidorah's tail. Seeing this, Zwei was quick to leap off Weiss's lap just as Ruby disappeared. She was quickly teleported above the room as her flying body fell into Weiss's arms. "Nice catch!" She said with a thumbs up as Weiss dropped her teammate onto the invisible floor.
Never before had King Ghidorah felt such pain and anger. No matter what it did, it couldn't injure this hideous beast! Was this newfound planet really worth it? King Ghidorah was beginning to not care anymore. Flapping its mighty wings and manipulating gravity itself, King Ghidorah hurled its magnificent body through Planet X's atmosphere and disappeared in the blackness of space. Hedorah stood and watched King Ghidorah flee. A loud, sickening laugh escaped the smog monster's contaminated throat.
"He's running away!" Yang shouted. "What a Coward! You were killing him and you decide to run from a couple hits!?"
"I would probably run away if my enemy seemingly reformed every time I struck them and was melting my body" Blake said.
"Still, it's a Space Dragon!" Yang said as they watched King Ghidorah flying into the vacuum of space.It had won. Now Hedorah turned towards its new home, never knowing it was being watched by the citizens of Planet X. Inside an underground chamber, the controller of the Xilien smiled at this new beast that would become the instrument of their desire.
"Winner: Hedorah". As Blake finished, the room changed back to normal with the simple wall banner returning to view. "Thoughts everyone?"
"This is a disappointment", Ruby said, "I was hoping for one to kill the other".
"What is wrong with you?" Weiss said staring at her pouting, disappointed Leader.
"What? It's not like they are people" Ruby said. "It's two giant murderous monsters fighting against one another to the death. You'd think one would die but I guess running away also counts as a victory" she said crossing her arms.
"Well there wasn't much King Ghidorah could do against Hedorah" Blake said putting the book down.
"I know that" Ruby said. "Having a corrosive body deters close combat while being able to adapt to fighting in land, sea, and air is a major advantage over your enemies".
"The battle seemed a bit one sided at times but I guess that's the power of Pollution for you" Yang said, still a bit disappointed in the ending.
"Still, that corrosive most was quite painful to experience. I feel horrible for all those who weren't healed and had to suffer dying by this" Weiss said as she shivered in trauma. Blake and Yang shivered at the thought, having seen Weiss under its effects up close. Ruby patted her teammate on the back comforting her.
"I'm sorry you had to experience that Weiss" Ruby said as she held her team member close.
"This is why I repeatedly tell you two to be careful down there" Weiss said shivering. "Can we just go onto the next match please?"
Everyone nodded at this as Yang picked up the book. And with the flip of a page, the wall shimmered changing to showcase a whole new adventure.
A/N – I apologize for my laziness in updating anything. I don't really have much excuses for not writing for several weeks. At least writing Fanfiction wise. I did spend my time procrastinating on chapters by writing and finishing a couple KWC Matches I had on the back burner and making some banners that didn't make it to the site. I don't know why I made Weiss suffer through Hedorah's acidic mist but it happened as did me coming across Pepsiman on YouTube. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this chapter since you read it. I mean, why else would you be here on this site other than reading. Except for those of you who are just here to troll writers and make them feel horrible. If you are one of those reviewers, then please by all means, leave a review. I could use a good laugh to fuel the insanity that comes with writing Fanfiction. To those of you who say that writing Fanfiction doesn't come with insanity, you haven't dove far enough into a story or a world of creation and felt empowered by what you were able to do as its creator. This is Daozang, Signing out.
