Godzilla ventured deep into the heart of Tokyo, seeking out an evil from another world. An alien civilization, known as the Xiliens, were attempting to conquer Earth, and Godzilla was the last hope of a dying people. As the gargantuan guardian continued to approach the Xilien Mothership, an ancient asteroid known as Gorath was approaching the planet at high speed. When Godzilla noticed the meteor, the nuclear behemoth fired his atomic ray. After a few moments, a huge explosion enveloped the celestial body, turning the once shining metropolis into a desolate graveyard. Godzilla stood amidst the wreckage, in the center of an immense crater. As he looked on, he witnessed the arrival of his greatest challenge yet...
Monster X descended from the husk of Gorath, gravitating slowly to the ground below. Standing at a great distance from one another, the two beings sized each other up. In a flash, the two charged at one another in the vast ruins of Tokyo. Leaping to attack, the beasts began to battle savagely. Monster X gained the first advantage, jumping into the air and lacing Godzilla with his two pronged tail. It then grabbed the King of the Monsters by its arms and twisted them, holding the monster up in a contorted state. The advantage was brief, though, as Godzilla forced himself back to the ground and landed a point blank shot with his atomic ray, sending Monster X reeling backward. The alien creature returned fire, searing Godzilla with its Destroyed Thunder beams. The encounter saw gaining a clear advantage. Luckily, assistance would soon arrive for the forces of good.
Mothra, the winged guardian, arrived to thwart Monster X's attempts to destroy Godzilla. However, the living tapestry of colors was forced to deal with the Xiliens' newest weapon: Gigan. The fully modified Gigan quickly neutralized the Infant Island deity, chopping part of its wing and sending it crashing to the ground. With Mothra out of the way, Gigan was free to assist Monster X.
Flying to meet them, Gigan approached as Monster X unleashed a series of Destroyed Thunder beams into its adversary. The cyborg then landed on the other side of Godzilla and fired his own beam at the nuclear menace. Monster X quickly used his new ally toward his advantage, grappling with Godzilla and holding him in place. This allowed Gigan to utilize his chainsaw hands, ripping the front of Godzilla with them. The King of the Monsters was far from beat, though. He twisted his body just enough to cause the Xilien cyborg to accidentally slash Monster X, freeing Godzilla from his grasp.
Suddenly, Mothra returned to the fray. Using her powerful wings, she slammed into both Gigan and Monster X, flooring them both. With Mothra's return, Godzilla was allowed to focus on Monster X while the winged guardian attacked Gigan. Unfortunately, Gigan managed to ignite Mothra with his beams, as she then rammed into the cyborg with her burning body. The confrontation ended up killing them both, leaving only Godzilla and Monster X standing.
The King of the Monsters wasted no time, charging into and knocking over his foe. Although Monster X managed to avoid another point blank shot of an atomic ray, it wasn't able to stop itself from being pinned down. On top of his adversary, Godzilla pummeled the alien being with his fists. Monster X was able to get some reprieve when the Xilien Mothership detonated, causing the city to erupt in a roaring conflagration and freeing the alien monster from Godzilla's grasp.
With its masters dead, Monster X fired its Destroyed Thunder beams just as Godzilla fired his atomic ray. The beams collided, causing a mammoth explosion that further bathed the area in fire. As the flames dissipated, Monster X's body began to quake. From his shoulders, huge wings erupted, signaling a transformation. Godzilla could only watch with curiosity as the side heads of Monster X began to expand. The silver hued beast started to change to gold and mutate, greatly increasing in size. As lighting sparked, the true identity of the Xilien weapon was revealed: Keizer Ghidorah. |
