KAIJU FIGHT #6
KAIJU FIGHT #6
▶ 001. SOMETHING IN THE SEA (KAGOSHIMA.)
It takes time to traverse the difficult terrain and fend off the corrupt wildlife but eventually, Redemption and Brimstone will arrive at the Ohsumi, where they will be sent coordinates to travel towards Sakurajima. There, they will find a very thin strip of land that forms a sandy and rocky path towards the island. They will be advised to wait until low tide when the path is easiest to cross.
Fortunately, as they wait, they will be largely undisturbed. The poison here is significantly more concentrated and any wildlife that lingers too long suffocates. For safety, Outsiders must continue wearing their protective suits to avoid the same fate.
Finally, the tide begins to recede and gives way to a rough and rocky path towards Sakurajima. The ground is hard and difficult to traverse; some parts are slippery with water. As they cross, a great tremor starts and the waters around them become turbulent. There isn't much to hold onto, but they're at high risk of falling into the sea especially when the land begins to rise.
When the tremors stop, there's a loud, hissing roar. The Outsiders will find themselves on the back of a giant turtle that is disguising itself as a small island. It appears this kaiju is the cause for the rift energy on this side of Japan.
Outsiders will be instructed to use water as their advantage as the creature uses fire and magma abilities. Electric attacks will weaken it, but the key is to tear off its shell from its body. Outsiders will be instructed to try this tactic, and after everyone's effort, the Gigakame will be defeated.

█ █ █ MONSTER DEBRIEF SHEETThe Outsiders will have to cut off all energy supplies to stop feeding the newly named Yamadenki and then defeat them.
NAME: Gigakame
HEIGHT: ???
WEIGHT: ???
CLASS: Extremely Dangerous
LOCATION: Kagoshima, Japan
ABILITIES: Breathes toxic gas, inner core is hot with magma, spits fire.
WEAKNESSES: Electricity, destroying and separating the turtle from its shell, filling the core with water.
EXTRA NOTES: This is a kaiju that has never been documented by LILITH before -- not much information can be provided. However, just like normal turtles, it uses its shell as a shield for defense and can be weakened if the shell is destroyed and torn from its body.

▶ 002. KAGOSHIMA AFTERMATH.
The Gigakame washes up on shore dead. The bizarre weather begins to normalize, but the poisonous miasma still lingers. Outsiders disembark to Kagoshima's base to depart and assist their other team mates.
Thanks to the clear weather, it's much easier to return to Kagoshima's research base. There, the researchers reveal they have a few emergency teleporters which are only allowed to be used during an emergency. Presumably, there are just enough to evacuate the researchers, but unfortunately, there are more Outsiders. The staff admit they probably won't have enough power to warp everyone safely; they guarantee that the first handful to go through will arrive in Tokyo with minimal issue, but the more they push their machines, the worse the side effects they'll suffer.
Redemption and Brimstone must decide who to send forward first to assist. Either way, everyone on both teams will be successfully teleported to Neo Tokyo, though those who have drawn the shorter straw (literally or figuratively) will suffer more sickness than those who teleported sooner rather than later.

▶ 003. SOMETHING IN THE SKY (TOKYO.)
While a huge sigh of relief sweeps the country when the kaiju in Kagoshima is defeated, there’s no actual time to relax. Outsiders will be ushered to go through the makeshift portals and/or are encouraged to find other means of arriving at the outskirts of Tokyo immediately. The Imugi has been spotted, and time cannot be wasted-- this is due to the influx of rift energy that is surrounding the city of Tokyo. While LILITH did complete the basic evacuation measures for the citizens of Neo Tokyo, there’s still an ominous air around the city and it’s not just from the rift poisoning, either. With small rifts cropping up here and there within the city, appearing and disappearing, the LILITH base is the most likely target for the Imugi.
While the hatchlings were moved to different facilities for safekeeping and monitoring, the Imugi seems largely uninterested in chasing them at present. The Imugi is resolved in its movements, and no amount of mimicking the hatchlings' vital readings can sway the Imugi off its intended path. As expected, within three hours of the initial fluctuations in rift energy, the Imugi appears at the emptied base. Similar to its behavior in Seoul, it sweeps over the base erratically, almost as if enraged. Its state is a direct mirror of how it appeared when avenging its mate, and it seems this is just the start.
Utilizing the insurmountable amount of rift energy it has built up around Tokyo, it eventually releases a deafening sound that causes the hatchlings to react, drawn to their mother. They make their way through the rifts, traveling through them at her beckoning, only to end up at the basement of the base. Just like that, the Imugi sinks its large claws through the roof of the structure and destroys not just the base, but also its young.
The energy produced by this creates a devastating explosion that destroys parts of the base and some of the surrounding area. While there were limited casualties due to the evacuation efforts, the area is now heavy with rift poisoning and the Imugi has every intention of destroying the city. It becomes clear that it did not desire to chase its young, but to use them to exact revenge.

▶ 004. TOKYO AFTERMATH.
The storms increase in intensity as the Imugi circles around the sky of Neo Tokyo. Fortunately, its ire still appears to be largely focused on the area around the base, and so the torrential downpour and lightning only seems to reach around this immediate area. LILITH tries to keep this space contained, attempting to work on stabilizing some of the rifts in order to cut off the Imugi’s potential escape routes. In the meantime, they will offer Outsiders as many resources as necessary to remain in the fight. They will send in supplies occasionally, including their specialized energy drinks and medical equipment. The new injections they drop off are able to heal light wounds and minor injuries, which can be administered quickly on the field. They anticipate this to be a long battle and advise Outsiders to pace themselves and work together.
By the latter half of the battle, all Outsiders should be accounted for in the final fight.
As expected, the battle lasts for over half a day and with the rift energy dwindling, the Imugi appears to be weakened. In fact, the Imugi has shrunk down to its original size prior to Seoul. Feeling its life is at risk, it uses the last of its energy to flee to the foot of Mt. Fuji. Fortunately, it doesn’t make it to the summit, and the Outsiders will be able to make quick work in pursuing it. For those that require it, ground vehicles and planes will be provided accordingly. Let's make sure it doesn't get away!
Upon arrival, they will see the final battlefront isn’t nearly that dramatic. The Imugi is significantly weakened, barely staving off attacks. Instead, it seems to focus on consolidating energy into its core while thrashing about. Eventually, a killing blow will be delivered but even then, it doesn't die easily. Similar to its young that were sacrificed, it appears to be using its own body to summon a final rift. Unfortunately, it cannot be stopped. Outsiders will be advised to temporarily retreat, after seeing the destruction that its young can do. The Imugi's body glows, increasing in intensity as it continues to gather energy. This is the warning to retreat. Within a matter of minutes, it self destructs, and a new rift is seen in its place. All Outsiders and LILITH are safe. The researchers immediately alert the area to be closed off for inspection.
Upon preliminary examination of this rift, they find that not only did it level a good portion of Mt. Fuji, but the power from it is unparalleled. Unlike the rifts they’ve encountered in prior battles, including their most recent venture in Transylvania, they discover this rift cannot be closed. What could this mean?
█ █ █ MONSTER DEBRIEF SHEET
NAME: IMUGI ♀
HEIGHT: 1000 feet across, 30 feet high
WEIGHT: 2000kg
CLASS: Extremely Dangerous
LOCATION: Neo Tokyo, Japan
ABILITIES: Control over weather conditions, including summoning of heavy storms, lightning strikes and hurricanes. Can fly up to 1000 feet. By flying amongst the clouds, Imugi releases chemicals into the atmosphere that bring about acid rain. Armored scales, sharp teeth and claws.
WEAKNESSES: Piercing it in the gaps between its impenetrable scales. There is also a particularly weak spot under on it's neck that will deal significant damage if pierced.
EXTRA NOTES: From its initial appearance and behavior, specialists believe that this female Imugi confirmed to be the mother of the hatchlings. This appears to be the female counterpart to the kaiju in Seoul that was killed by the Outsiders after causing havoc on South Korea. Despite them both being the same type of kaiju, likely derived from the same rift, this kaiju seems slightly more agile and openly aggressive.

▶ 005. RE-GROUP.
With parts of the base destroyed and Neo Tokyo undergoing cleanup from the aftermath of the battle, Outsiders will be advised to take a break in the underground bunkers between Mt. Fuji and the city outskirts. As part of Mr. Fuji was also destroyed, some of the bunkers aren’t accessible, but Outsiders will find it is an entire maze of a city beneath the surface. If one traverses far enough, they will find it even connects to the amusement park that they saved last year. Exploration aside, Outsiders will be provided medical assistance and anything else required, and LILITH staff that are on hand will remain devoted to getting things back on track.
In the meantime, Outsiders can utilize whatever supplies are available and use the rooms at the Kyoto base freely. Each room contains anywhere from 2-4 beds, and everyone will be encouraged not to be alone in case of another emergency, especially as the rift remains open at the base of Mt. Fuji. These rooms are set up like traditional houses rather than a flashy base, with sliding doors and tatami mats. Floor futons will be used instead of Western style beds. There is one communal and traditional bath house for all sexes to use, a makeshift medical area, and an underground market that have several restaurants... but the food options and quality of amenities are questionable. They are mostly run by gritty characters or A.I robots.
As the portal between Kyoto and Neo Tokyo is still active, for those who are still able to, they will be advised to assist in retrieving any Imugi parts that remain from the scuffle. While its main body is being contained and promptly dealt with by LILITH, there are parts and scales scattered around Neo Tokyo and the old base. All parts are to be bagged, marked, and returned to LILITH. It's hard to say just how much of LILITH's base was destroyed and Eiji Shiro along with Captain Yamakawa are evaluating the state of the base before sharing a detailed report of the destruction. Stay tuned until February 25th for a follow up post.

▶ 006. AFTERWORD.
Welcome to our sixth kaiju battle, and it's a double whammy!
There are two kaiju to attack this time. Please read the instructions at each header about how to play. Remember, you only have to fill out your attack information once and we will RNG a HIT or MISS result two times per character.
It is highly likely that if your character did not pack certain belongings with them that they could be amongst the rubble of the base. The state of the base will be explained in a follow up post on February 25th, but fret not, you may assume whatever items are still in tact and operational and can be retrieved shortly. If you'd like for items to be perished and destroyed, be our guest!
All tags on this log are worth 2 points and will count towards February AC.

EVENT BREAKDOWN/RECAP (CLICK TO EXPAND)
1. SOMETHING IN THE SEA (KAGOSHIMA): Teams Redemption and Brimstone arrive at the Ohsumi to receive coordinates to Sakurajima, where they must wait until low tide to cross. The poison in the area is significantly concentrated; Outsiders are advised to wear their suits to avoid suffocating like the rest of the wildlife. Once they are able to cross, they discover that the land they are on is not an island, but a giant turtle kaiju responsible for the influx of rift energy on this side of Japan. Outsiders will be instructed to use water against the kaiju and try to separate the shell from the body.
2. KAGOSHIMA AFTERMATH: After defeating the Gigakame, Outsiders will be instructed to join their other teammates in Tokyo via emergency teleporters located at the Kagoshima research base. There is a limited amount of power to warp everyone safely, and Outsiders must decide who to send through the teleporter first. Eventually both teams will safely arrive in Neo Tokyo, but those who have gone through the teleporter later may suffer more side effects.
3. SOMETHING IN THE SKY (TOKYO): The Imugi has been spotted in Tokyo with a large influx of rift energy and has its sights set on destroying the LILITH base. Although the hatchlings were moved to different facilities, they are inevitably drawn to their mother and travel through rifts to the empty Tokyo base; however, instead of a reunion, the hatchlings sacrifice themselves and the ensuing explosion destroys parts of the base and the surrounding area.
4. TOKYO AFTERMATH: The rematch with the Imugi and the Outsiders begin, with LILITH working on stabilizing rifts to cut off the Imugi's escape and sending in supplies in the form of energy drinks and new medical equipment. The battle lasts for over half a day, with the Imugi attempting to escape to Mt. Fuji, weakened to the point where it can't reach the summit. Outsiders are advised to retreat as the Imugi self-destructs and creates a new rift, one that can't be closed.
5. RE-GROUP: With parts of the base destroyed, Outsiders will temporarily stay in the underground bunkers between Mt. Fuji and the city outskirts. While Outsiders are provided medical assistance and anything else required, LILITH staff that are on hand will remain devoted to getting things back on track. Outsiders are welcome to help themselves to the limited amenities and room with others; however, sharing is encouraged and the food options are questionable. As the portal between Kyoto and Neo Tokyo is still active, some Outsiders may be asked to assist in retrieving Imugi parts. At this time, Eiji Shiro and Captain Yamakawa will assess the damage on the base before sharing a detailed report at a later time.

[ He taps his index finger against the glass bottle as he ponders, the sound of the claws even his human form keeps at the fingertips making a crystal clear ping with each impact. ]
Make example of the porcine and simian Kaiju we made sport of during the last lunar cycle. Aggressive, destructive, but possessed of reason in their way. Basic beasts intent on survival at their core, yes? The Imugi...
[ A pause as he takes a sip from his glass. ]
That being was not correct. I am unsure if it was her nature that was corrupted or if her very existence itself was the corrupt thing.
[ Another pause, another drink, and a troubled grumble. ]
She submitted in the end. When the final blow was struck our eyes met, I could see her acceptance of my status there... and the depths of her malevolence. She was a being of hatred, yes? Then why would she flee the city before destructing herself, one would assume she would vent her petty fury upon the human dwellings rather than an empty mountainside.
no subject
I do hope the LILITH team investigating it can provide some answers to that, soon. That thing's existence is pretty ominous.
As for the Imugi seeming corrupt ... there's still more questions than answers about the hierarchy of these kaiju, if some are more like beasts and some can talk. Is there control involved between them? Concepts of a hivemind? Mind control? The kaiju we encountered in Las Vegas had powers that messed with our minds, so it's certainly possible they could do that to one another.
no subject
[ A shrug. Godzilla has no clue what was going through the Imugi's mind in her last moments but given what she was able to do to her on young? He's pretty happy not knowing what twisted thoughts went on in there. ]
For their hierarchy there is only speculation we can hold for the moment. Though there is perhaps chance that the mechanisms of my own world of origin may other some vision to the inside of this matter. [ Insight... ]
Let us consider my Titans, those of that number are of expectational quality amongst the beings that inhabit that world. There are many creatures within the world beneath that we would term "Kaiju" here, their scale towering over humanity, their capacity for destruction should they find themselves on the surface would be quite similar I believe, yet not all are Titans.
[ A pause. Is he getting lost in the flora here, as they say? Perhaps he is. He shakes his head. ]
A simplification. The Kaiju the packs faced before my arrival, creatures of the behavior of base beasts like the Yama-Kuijira, they are what one would consider the normal species within the world beneath. The Titans would be closest to the Imugi and the beast of Brasov; intelligent, holding their own motivations aside from basic survival, capable of bringing humanity to their knees should they wish.
Amongst the Titans there are those of similar temperament to the Imugi, Destroyers that will attack all who intrude upon them, or who will risk the well being of the world for their own gains of territory. Then there are those like myself, Protectors, those who see to the balance of nature and the defense of your kind from other Titans... and themselves. So one must wonder, by what means is it that the two natures of Titan are not in constant battle with one another, yes?
[ Godzilla allows himself a smirk, his posture straightening in pride as he stands up and thumps his chest with a fist. ]
Myself. I am Alpha, I am King. Upon the earth of origin Godzilla is aware of the presence and actions of every Titan who dwells both on the surface and inn the world below. The capacity to call to them from any location and be heard is a capability I possess, one of great import. It is not a "hivemind", nor is it control, but it is... compulsion? Yes, compulsion that drives the other Titans to respond.
[ That pride falls a bit as he goes on, he has to be honest about things so Yzak can get the full picture and admitting this is not easy. ]
However I am not the only with this capacity. Ghidorah, an Invader from beyond the planet, likewise was capable of such call. When I was weakened by human interference in our battles they were capable of taking the place of Alpha. They called the Titans from their slumbers, set them to destroying the cities of mankind. I am... uncertain how many would have perished. With my understanding of civil denizen populations I would put estimate to millions.
Perhaps the Kaiju posses this. An Alpha that seeks the conquest of this world. If this is so it is my suspicion that the vile Pricolici was itself capable of this post of Alpha, as it appeared more intent upon carving out its own small kingdom than contribution to a greater goal. In the end of things we are once more given more things of inquiry rather than answer. Vexing.
[ OH WOW THERE ARE SO MANY WORDS. What is this, a Ratio tag?! ]
no subject
Hm.
HM!!
Despite where Yzak's mind goes when Godzilla and his temperament says that, he does not open his mouth.
There's more important things to think about anyway, rather than Godzilla's penchant to blowing up rooms when he gets into an argument. ]
Not a hivemind, then. That sounds closer to something like a sort of psychic connection between you all.
But that's very useful information to know, because if it's anything like that for these guys here ... similar sort of abilities could be the key to breaking into or disrupting it. It's an avenue to at least look into.
no subject
[ He shrugs. The giant spider's tendencies while mysterious would... actually be helpful in this war against the kaiju, now that he thinks about it. They could get a clearer sense for the rest of the world at the very least, assuming there were spiders still running around out there, which is a safe bet given the species' resilience and variety.
Anyway. ]
A thought, should there be the discovery of a Kaiju Alpha it would become a thing of necessity to see to the empowering of myself or Gigan. This is not a declaration born of egotism. [ He raises his index finger in a halting gesture. There's some egotism though, let's be real. ] As Titans we would be of the most suitable candidacy to challenge a hypothetical Kaiju Alpha for dominance.
[ explain to me how he says things like "missed the steak" but knows how to use hypothetical in a sentence... ]
no subject
[ HE would, anyway. He would like to Be Finished With This Shit. ]
no subject
[ And once they're done? Then what? Godzilla knows what's in his future, convinced as he is that he's a separate bring created based off the original. He continues to protect this world.
But what about people like Yzak? The Pilot is an intelligent individual who's opinion Goji actually respects, so he might as well ask. ]
Inform me if you are willing, Pilot Yzak. What is your intended course of action once the kaiju threat is no more?
no subject
[ He's always going to be salty about that. No matter what changes, no matter what goals align along the way, that's never going to change. Yzak has long decided what the life he was lucky enough to keep was going to be dedicated to. And once the kaiju threat is gone, it won't be here. ]
I have no intention of sticking around longer that I have to, once we're done. My place is home, with my people, who I've always given and still owe my full duty and devotion to.
no subject
[ Because to Godzilla "I'll go home" is the easy answer. It's the answer most of the Outsiders who in theory have a life of their own to return to would give. But what if they can't? What if they are, as Godzilla believes, a reflection of another world's being? Or what if for whatever reason LILITH is unable to return them? By the big guy's reckoning they don't really seem to have much of a handle of the techniques they use to draw in Outsiders, if they did he's certain their ranks would be swollen with more Titans like himself and Pilots like Yzak. Not to belittle the abilities of the others, but those two groups in Godzilla's estimate hold the greatest capacity when it comes to kaiju fighting. ]
Another consideration. Say it is a thing of possibility. One holds doubt that the technique LILITH has made usage of to call us to the duty is a thing that can be put aside with an act of simplicity. The box entrusted to Pandora, as it were. There may be more kaiju, or perhaps even humanoids, that seek harm to this world. Indeed, any world of origin as well. Yours, myself's. In this secondary scenario of consideration it would be a thing of foolish optimistic outlook to make assumption that such continued conflict can be held defensively. Would you still seek the return to your world of origin then? Or would you take the battle forward till it is a thing of full resolution.
no subject
[ A stubborn determination means that when he speaks, he sounds completely assured of what he says. He figures if there are others who don't wish to return from whence they came, then they could do as they pleased in the end. Whether they've come to love this world, got stockholm syndrome'd into thinking they do, can't go home because they died before they came here, or just feel obligated for whatever reason to help this world rebuild once their mission is done. ]
If there are more kaiju or more anything out there that aim to target this world, we won't know until we discover it. But right now, it's the kaiju, and since there is the chance that they can reach other universes outside of this one, that much is reason enough to be fine focusing on this mission.
LILITH is constantly working on advancing their technology toward their goal. I would assume that, ideally, one of their aims there is to amass more of a force against our enemy. That would require better means of reaching out to others to call forth here, as well as informing them that the threat could expand beyond just this world. Means that aren't a one-way trip nor a matter of who gets recruited being randomly selected. In that case, there'd be plenty of people willing to offer their aid. Hell, I'd consider offering more of mine.
But this isn't my world. These aren't my people and this isn't my home. So regardless of anything, I'm not staying here forever.
