Chapter 4: 8 foot tall woman
2 weeks after the Heavenly Host School incident
Godzilla took a sip of his soda, refreshing himself after a day's of work.
Jennifer sat next to him and she remarks.
" Wow. Can't believe we have managed to make it."
" Yeah. It has been two weeks but it felt like yesterday."
Godzilla agrees.
Jennifer looks around and she questions out.
" Hey, where's Gorosaurus?"
" Oh. I think he must have gone for a smoke break."
" Is that even allowed?"
" Who knows? Us Kaijus aren't really known for following rules."
Godzilla said as he took a sip.
Outside
Gorosaurus stood next to the hedge, sighing to himself.
" Ah, finally. A smoke break."
Gorosaurus quickly whips out a cigarette and he presses onto his lighter, igniting a light.
As he leans his cigarette closer to the fire, all of a sudden, the Allosaurus heard the sound of rustling from behind.
" Wha?"
Gorosaurus quickly drops his cigarette and he looks around.
" Is the headmaster here?"
However, Gorosaurus heard the rustling from behind the hedge, causing him to look.
Behind it, a huge hat could be seen peering out of the hedge, shifting towards a small opening.
And that's where Gorosaurus saw it.
A tall slender woman cladded in a white dress and a huge hat stood over the hedge, looking down at him.
Gorosaurus jaws drops as he looks at her.
How is she this tall? The hedges were high. Almost 8 feet tall.
Gorosaurus asks out.
" Uh hey, is there something you need miss?"
The woman didn't answer, instead, she moves back, disappearing into shadows while emitting a deep sound.
Po! Po! Po!
Gorosaurus raises an eye.
Just what in the world is going on?
It was then that Gorosaurus suddenly no longer felt safe to smoke outside anymore.
The Allosaurus quickly slips his packet of cigarettes into his pocket and he races back into the building.
Later
Ayumi sat in front of Godzilla and Jennifer, talking when all of a sudden, Gorosaurus rushes towards them.
" Hey guys! Guys!"
" What is it Gorosaurus?"
" Something weird just happened to me."
" What happened?"
Jennifer asks.
Gorosaurus began singing out.
" All I ever saw, was this really really tall
Giant woman
Giant woman."
Ayumi stares at him and she asks.
" Do you really need to quote Steven Universe?"
" Tall woman?"
Jennifer questions further.
Gorosaurus nods.
" Yeah. She was really really tall and she said "PO"."
Upon hearing that, the entire cafeteria fell silent.
Realizing everybody's reaction, Godzilla questions.
" Hey, what's going on?"
Ayumi didn't answer, instead she questions Gorosaurus further.
" How tall is she? Did she do anything?"
" She's kinda 8 feet, just as high as the hedge. And no, she just looks at me."
Ayumi then races towards the principal's office, leaving Godzilla, Jennifer and Gorosaurus standing around, dumbfounded.
A few minutes later, the principal approaches them and she said to Gorosaurus.
" Mr. Gorosaurus, I'm afraid you will have to go home now."
" Go home? No offense ma'am but why are you sending me home?"
The principal looks at Ayumi and she explains.
" The woman you saw is a spirit called Hachishaku sama."
" Hachishaku sama?"
" It means 8 foot tall. And if you see her, it means you're destined to die."
" Die?"
Both Godzilla and Jennifer widens their eyes and Gorosaurus remarks.
" Look what happened! I'm so dead"
Ayumi shook her head.
" Not unless you do as I say."
" Alright what do you want me to do?"
" Go home. You will need Mr. Godzilla and Ms. Jennifer with you. Ayumi will be bringing someone to your house later."
" Okay."
Godzilla nods and he grabs onto Gorosaurus's shoulder, saying.
" Come on pal, let's get you home."
Gorosaurus looks dowm and he questions.
" Am I really going to die?"
" You will say no such thing Gorosaurus!"
Godzilla reprimands him.
Later
On the way back to Gorosaurus's apartment, Gorosaurus questions.
" Alright, can someone tell me who is this Hachishaku sama?"
Ayumi explains.
" Hachishaku sama is an evil spirit taking on the appearance of a really tall woman. A long time ago, several monks has managed to confine the creature in a ruined building in the outskirts of town, trapping it with four Jizos."
" Excuse me but what is a Jizo?"
Jennifer asks.
" Small religious statues. They are common in Japanese tradition."
Ayumi answers.
Godzilla questions her further.
" So if Hachishaku sama was captured, how in the world is she still out there?"
" Until today, nobody knows the true reason why."
Ayumi explains.
Gorosaurus said to her snarkily.
" Man. I find your knowledge of the paranormal quite disturbing, especially how you almost got us killed with that ritual."
" Hey! How many times do I have to say I'm sorry?!"
Ayumi shouts back.
Jennifer said to Gorosaurus.
" Just let it go Gorosaurus, I'm sure she doesn't mean for it to happen."
Gorosaurus sighs and he nods.
" Alright, I'll let it go but that doesn't mean I'm okay with it."
Gorosaurus's apartment.
As the four steps into the apartment, Ayumi's eyes widens in shock.
The entire living room is a mess of empty beer bottles and stashes of pornagraphy magazines.
Ayumi turns to Gorosaurus and she questions.
" Is this the place you are living in?"
" Hey! A dinosaur's gotta live right?"
As Godzilla and Jennifer steps in after them, Ayumi runs out and she instructs them.
" I'm going to get Kei-san, everybody wait here!"
Ayumi dashes out of the door, leaving Godzilla, Jennifer and Gorosaurus staring at her.
Godzilla turns to Gorosaurus and he smiles to him assuringly.
" No worries pal. Things will be okay."
" Yeah, to you maybe. You're not the ones getting targeted by a tall woman."
Jennifer interjects.
" Well you aren't the only one chased by something. Godzilla was chased by a red demon while I was chased by a scissor wielding fiend."
Jennifer looks down, placing a hand over her arm and she concludes.
" You have absolutely no idea how terrifying that was."
" Yeah,"
Godzilla agrees.
" Normally I would be willing to take on any Kaijus but that red demon really terrifies me. That chase traumatized me for life."
Gorosaurus nods and he said.
" I understand. Guess I'm kinda next on their hit list huh?"
At that moment, the door swung open and Ayumi steps in accompanied by an elderly woman.
As they stepped in, Kei-san immediately got to work.
She and Ayumi quickly began pasting the windows with newspaper, covering the entire sill completely.
Kei-san quickly scribble several symbols on the paper while Ayumi ran to the kitchen.
As Ayumi began filling up four bowls of salt, Kei-san began giving Gorosaurus instructions.
" Soon the sun will be setting so listen carefully. You are not to leave this room for whatever reasons."
Before Gorosaurus could ask any further, Kei-san passes him a bucket and she concludes her semtence.
" Not even to use the restroom."
Gorosaurus groans out.
" Look what happened!"
Godzilla then asks Kei-san.
" So what about us then?"
" You two are to stay outside his room. He must not be allowed to leave until the next morning."
Ayumi quickly places the bowls of salt across the four corners of the room while Kei-san places a buddha statue in the middle.
Godzilla then brought in a television, some container of crackers and several large water bottles into the room.
" This is just in case you're hungry."
Godzilla said.
Gorosaurus laments out.
" I was planning on going for Poker tonight! How could this hapen to me?!"
Jennifer touches him by the shoulder and she assures him.
" It's gonna be okay Gorosaurus. We'll be outside."
With that, everyone immediately leaves the room, leaving Gorosaurus standing alone in the room.
Gorosaurus quickly flips open his laptop, activating a pornagraphy website and he declares to himself.
" If this is gonna be my last night alive, might as well live it up!"
Gorosaurus then began spending the night streaming through the net, watching movies and eating crackers.
Within hours, Gorosaurus soon fell asleep.
1 am
It was around one AM in the morning when Gorosaurus heard a loud tap from the window.
" Oh shit! It's her."
Gorosaurus thought to himself.
However, Gorosaurus tries to convince himself otherwise by saying.
" It's probably a tree or somethin'."
Just then, Gorosaurus heard the sound of knocking on the door.
As he looks up, growling, Gorosaurus could hear Godzilla's voice from behind the door.
" Hey pal, you okay in there? If you want I can come in and keep you company."
" Oh thank God!"
Without thinking, Gorosaurus pushes himself up and he heads towards the door.
Hearing the King of the Monster's voice immediately reliefs Gorosaurus of his fears, knowing that everything will be alright as long as Godzilla is around.
However, Gorosaurus suddenly halts in his tracks.
Something didn't feel right.
Gorosaurus shifts his eyes around the room and his eyes widens in horror.
All four bowls of salt has turned completely black!
Gorosaurus quickly turns away from the door and he crouches in front of the buddha statue, shivering as the deep voice began booming from outside.
PO! PO! PO! PO!
" Look what happened!"
Gorosaurus curses out as he began praying silently.
Time seems to fly past as Gorosaurus continues to pray, barely keeping track of time.
It was then that he heard his alarm clock beep.
" Huh?"
Gorosaurus immediately stops praying and he stood up, walking towards his alarm clock.
The clock shows 7.00 am.
Gorosaurus sighs a breath of relief.
It's already morning.
The Allosaurus carefully opens the door and he walks out, only to find Godzilla and Jennifer waking up on his couch.
" Gorosaurus? You're alright!"
Godzilla said to him.
Gorosaurus nods and he said.
" Yeah. Now let's get to work. We're gonna be late."
School
However....
" What?! Terminated?"
Gorosaurus, Jennifer and Godzilla exclaims out, shocked at what the principal said.
The principal explains.
" I know this may shock you Gorosaurus but after what Kei-san told me, it's not safe for you to work here anymore."
" But what about my stall? Where am I supposed to work?"
" That you will have to figure out yourself."
The principal hands over a bunch of cheaque to the trio and she said.
" Here are your pay. There's a taxi waiting for you."
As Godzilla and Jennifer stares at the cheaque, Jennifer smiles and she said to Godzilla.
" Godzilla look, we finally made enough to go back to England."
" Yes! I am thrilled!"
Godzilla cheers out.
Gorosaurus bows respectfully and he bids the principal farewell.
" Thank you for everything."
" No problem. And thank you for helping us you three."
Godzilla, Jennifer and Gorosaurus steps out of the office, only to be greeted by Naomi, Seiko and Satoshi.
" Awww, are you really gonna leave us?"
Seiko laments out.
Godzilla nods apologetically.
" I'm sorry but we really must go."
" We'll miss you. You have helped us a lot."
Satoshi said.
Gorosaurus pats him on the shoulder and he smirks at him.
" Hey kid, once we get to wherever the kid wants to go, I'll send ya a postcard."
Satoshi smiles at him.
" Thanks Mr. Gorosaurus."
Jennifer and Naomi embraces each other tightly and Naomi said to her.
" Take care Ms. Jennifer, I'll miss you."
" I'll miss you too. Good luck Naomi."
Godzilla then bids the trio farewell.
" Goodbye you three, you and your friends have been great company for us!"
" Goodbye!"
The trio waves just as Godzilla, Jennifer and Gorosaurus steps out of the school.
Port
As the trio enters the port, Gorosaurus said to both Godzilla and Jennifer.
" Well, after selling the apartment, I managed to earn five hundred thousand dollars extra."
" That's great. With that extra cash plus our salary, we've got more than enough to go back to England."
" However, there is one potential problem though."
" And that is?"
Godzilla questions out, curious.
Gorosaurus rubs the back of his head and he explains.
" I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being watched."
At that moment....
PO!
Everyone spun around in horror, gasping out just as Hachishaku sama stood behind them.
" Crap! Quick! Quick! Let's go!"
The trio quickly rushes into the boat, ready to leave the country and get away from the creature.
The eight foot tall woman quietly slithers into the shadows, lurking.
She will get that Allosaurus someday.
