October 9th, 2000 (Planet X)

Ghidorah roared with each of his three heads as he released a shockwave of gravitational energy towards the ground miles below. Nearby airships that hadn't already been destroyed in the battle were knocked out of the sky and sent plummeting.

Across the entire planet, citizens desperately tried to seek shelter as the atmosphere continued to break down and the continents began to fold. The strike against the 150 meter tall Ghidorah had failed, leaving the extra-terrestrial monster free to wreak havoc. Its sole goal was the destruction of Planet X.

Planet X. A once thriving world in the Andromeda Galaxy that had been doomed ever since its brightest minds had tampered with one of Ghidorah's organic beacons twenty years before. The resulting explosion near the planet's equator had killed billions and sent the world into an apocalyptic state.

The resilient Xilien race had refused to give up, however. They'd clung to life with a tenacity that surprised Ghidorah. Most planets that triggered one of his beacons were totally unprepared for his arrival, but this one had been ready with multiple monsters, mechs, and a vast armada of airships.

It had taken him a little longer than usual, but he had easily destroyed them all. He was the most powerful being in the universe after all. Created by an intergalactic civilization millions of years ago, he had been meant to be the ultimate weapon in their war against another, stronger intergalactic civilization.

He had done exactly what his creators had wanted. He had systematically wiped out the enemy, driving them to extinction over the course of several generations. By the time his task was completed, the ones who had made him were long dead, their grandchildren now the ones in control of him.

He had wondered what he would do after eighty years of galactic conquest, but he would never have expected to be brushed aside and sent 'into retirement' with his usefulness at an apparent end.

In his rage, he had broken free of their control and destroyed them. They had fought hard against him and even created two monsters to fight him. Based off of his original design, his creators had named them Desghidorah and Keizer Ghidorah respectively. While they both possessed the same massive wings, three heads, regenerative powers, and the ability to manipulate energy that Ghidorah had, they were made to be bulkier and given an additional pair of legs.

Ghidorah had killed them both, of course, earning himself the nickname of 'King' Ghidorah from the frightened lower classes. Many tried worshipping him, hoping that their collective adoration would sway him.

It hadn't.

Once they were all destroyed, Ghidorah had set out in search of more civilizations to destroy. It was the only really interesting thing that broke up his monotonous existence.

After aimlessly wandering for over a million years, randomly happening upon inhabited planets, Ghidorah had grown bored. Most planets lacked intelligent life that could fight back. They just weren't fun to destroy. In his boredom, he had begun experimenting with self-evolution, a feature his creators had added but never used, deeming it 'gimmicky'. It took thousands of years to take effect, but he had the time and patience to create for himself the perfect tool.

He had developed the ability to produce organic beacons that he could lay as eggs and fire off into the universe. They would be attracted by lifeforms, and crash-land on planets. They would lay dormant until they were disturbed by intelligent life, after which they would explode, releasing so much energy that he could detect it from wherever he was in the near universe.

It had taken some time, but now they worked like a charm. He had destroyed thousands of civilizations in the past million years alone.

Now all he had to do was finish off Planet X and move onto the next one.

Suddenly, Ghidorah sensed something rocketing towards him, coming from thousands of miles away, on the other side of the planet. He stopped his planetary destruction to take notice of it and was pleasantly surprised to discover that it seemed to be one more monster. Fighting other monsters was always the most fun part of destroying worlds since every intelligent civilization inevitably brought about the rise of monsters.

After several minutes of patiently treading air with his massive golden wings, the monster appeared over the curve of the Earth. Ghidorah narrowed his three pairs of eyes.

The monster was bizarre. A 100 meter tall bipedal monster with large red fins jutting out of its back, its face had a beak, horns, and a red visor covering its eyes. Jutting out of its chest was a row of whirring spikes, and instead of hands, its arms ended in large metal hooks, with smaller ones in place of its feet.

Yes, it was one of the strangest monsters Ghidorah had ever come across.

The people of Planet X called it Gigan. A cyborg monster developed by terrorists, the impending doom of the planet had forced them to hand the cyborg over to the planet's military in hopes of saving the world. Now it was the only thing standing in Ghidorah's way.

Gigan released a high-pitched roar as it flew directly towards Ghidorah. A red laser beam fired from its visor and Ghidorah swerved in midair to avoid it. He roared in anger and launched himself at Gigan, legs outstretched, ready to grapple the smaller monster.

Ghidorah's legs clamped down on Gigan's arms and held them to the side while he used his heads to attack Gigan, biting at its face. To Ghidorah's surprise, Gigan thrust itself against his chest, using its spinning chest blade to lacerate Ghidorah's usually impenetrable golden scales.

Ghidorah roared in pain and dropped Gigan, using his wings to retreat from the bladed monster. Gigan levitated in midair for a moment before continuing after Ghidorah, swinging its metal hooks back and forth, trying to slash at the dragon. Ghidorah flew in a wide circle, trying to outmaneuver the smaller and more agile Gigan. He opened his right and left head's mouths and launched electrical beams at Gigan, who blocked them with its metal hooks, which absorbed the electricity.

Gigan fired its eye beam at Ghidorah again, who spun in midair to avoid the explosive laser. He angled himself towards the ground miles below and began to dive, trying to lure Gigan into following him.

Gigan took the bait, plunging after Ghidorah. It launched another beam at Ghidorah, who allowed himself to bee hit, a large explosion engulfing his body from where the laser struck him. He suddenly extended his wings, halting his descent. He raised his heads upward, ready to clamp down onto Gigan, who was only seconds behind him when the cyborg released a strange squawking noise and suddenly vanished in a spray of red sparks. Ghidorah swung his heads around side to side in confusion, only for one of his wings to be suddenly sliced off at its base by Gigan's hooks.

Gigan had teleported underneath Ghidorah, a relatively new technological advance for the people of Planet X. It could only work at short ranges, and Gigan had used it to its full potential in combat, having swung its left arm in a wide arc while spinning past Ghidorah.

Ghidorah roared in pain and began to plummet towards the ground in freefall while Gigan continued smoothly with its spin into a dive, rocketing towards Ghidorah. Gigan lashed out and stabbed Ghidorah in the chest with both of its hooks, its human controllers hoping to fatally wound the dragon.

This was their big mistake.

Ghidorah's right and left heads reached out and grabbed hold of Gigan once again, but this time, the dragon began injecting Gigan with electricity, overheating its mechanical components, while his center head clamped down onto Gigan's head. Gigan couldn't free itself from Ghidorah, and so they began to freefall together while Ghidorah used his sheer size to wrestle with Gigan, angling Gigan beneath himself.

Gigan tried desperately to scramble free, even attempting to teleport out of Ghidorah's grasp, but each teleport attempt would only bring the monster with him. Ghidorah roared in triumph as they slammed into the ground, Gigan taking the brunt of the impact.

Ghidorah slowly stood up and spread his wings, the one that had been sliced off already regenerating, while he pulled himself off of Gigan, the metal hooks sliding right out, leaving gaping wounds that began to regenerate after a moment. Ghidorah roared with each of his heads when he was fully healed, with not a scratch on his body, and reached down to finish off Gigan.

Holding the monster down with his right and left heads, he clamped down onto Gigan's neck with his center head and released a bolt of his devastating gravity beam, which tore the cyborg's head off, sending it flying into the air. Ghidorah then stuck his head down Gigan's exposed throat, using his long neck to plunge deep into its half-organic half-mechanical body. With his head deep inside Gigan, he began to charge up his gravity beam.

After several moments, he released a blast that caused Gigan's already lifeless body to be blown outward, sending bits of flesh and metal hurtling across the landscape, propelled by the force of the explosion of raw gravity.

Ghidorah was covered in blood and guts from the explosion, and used the electrical beams from his right and left heads to clean himself off, the electricity conducting through his golden scales, propelling the pieces of Gigan away with a crackle.

Ghidorah then returned to his task, satisfied with his appearance. He was a god, after all. He believed that he should look appropriately regal while ending the world for these pathetic Xilien beings.

Using his center head's gravity beam, coupled with massive flaps of his wings that spread raw power through the air, Ghidorah tore the planet apart. Billions died in a matter of hours while he used his powers to rip a hole open in the crust of the planet, allowing the planet's interior to cook the atmosphere away. The planet began to disintegrate around Ghidorah, who used his gravity beam to its full extent, sending it surging down into the planet's metallic core, where it was conducted and sent surging out in all directions, blasting the planet apart from the inside.

Ghidorah roared in triumph as he flew back out into space, leaving the shattered remains of Planet X behind him. He had done this thousands of times, but it never got boring, or unrewarding, to look back on what he, one singular being, could accomplish.

After several weeks of resting on a nearby asteroid, he took flight. As he began to pick up speed, aiming to leave the solar system of the Xiliens behind, he felt a sudden surge of energy. One of his beacons had just been triggered nearby. In fact, it was in the nearest major galaxy to the Andromeda Galaxy: the Milky Way Galaxy.

It would only take Ghidorah about 15 years to reach the galaxy, and then perhaps another couple of months to reach the particular solar system that contained intelligent life. Then, he would destroy that planet, along with its civilization. Nothing could stop him. There was nothing in the universe that could naturally evolve that could beat him.

He was a god. A being of infinite power.

He was King Ghidorah.

Author's Note

Welcome! We've finally made it to the second installment of Evangelion X Godzilla, and I couldn't be more excited! The entire story is planned out, and I can't wait to see how people react to some of the things I've got planned. Once again, there will be twelve chapters, released weekly on Tuesday nights.

I decided while outlining this entire story that I should begin with a chapter introducing Ghidorah, as he will (obviously) be the main villain of the story, and after teasing his existence in A God Incarnate, I figured I shouldn't delay his first real appearance.

All comments are welcome, I really enjoy hearing what you guys think!

Until next time!
