Still sleeping in the volcano's rocky crater, Rodan was woken up by a loud thud. Jumping out of fear, he cried out as pain flared up inside if him. More blood gushed forth from his damaged cloaca. Lifting his gaze, he saw Ghidorah towering over him. All three pairs of ruby red eyes were fixed on him. Ni showed hostility, San wore a sad expression on his face after he heard the Fire Demon's cry and Ichi showed no emotion, though some kind of emotion flashed in his eyes. It was unreadable though. Smelling fresh meat, the large prehistoric reptile fnally noticed the two humpback whales the three headed dragon had caught. Knowing he wasn't going to get anything, he started to head over to his hiding place when San gently grabbed his crest and pulled him over towards them. Laying down, the left head explained, "Ichi's allowing us to share one whale while he and Ni get the other." Surprised, Rodan glanced over at the middle head. Neither him or Ni were eating yet as they returned the gaze, though the right head was growing impatient. Blinking slowly, Ichi motioned for him to eat. Gulping, Rodan took a small bite.

Feeling the warm flesh run down his sore throat and down into his empty stomach, Rodan closed his eyes and relished the moment. As if realizing right then just how hungry he really was, he lunged at the dead whale and started to dig in. He had almost forgotten what whale meat tasted like. Seeing that their wounded host was eating, all three headed lowered down and started to eat as well. Every once in a while, San would nuzzle the King of the Skies. While he ate the other humpback whale with Ni, Ichi would often glance over and watch the two lovers. He couldn't remember the last time he had seen San smile as big as the one he was wearing right now. The pair seemed happy to be in each other's prescence, though there was still terror in Rodan's facial expressions whenever he glanced over at the other two heads. The fear was rolling off of him in waves, along with the pain. Ichi could tell the prehistoric reptile was hurting badly. His face showed just how much agony he was going through. His movements were slow but that still did nothing to stop or decrease the amount of orange blood that dripped down from his insides. Every once in a while, the three headed dragon would have chills running up and down their spines when they heard a shriek from the Fire Demon, signaling that a whole bunch of blood had just rushed out of his cloaca. By the time the whale bones had been polished off, there was another puddle on the rocky floor. Turning to San, Ichi whispered, "You have to do something for him."

"I can't. He won't let me," San protested, knowing what his older brother had meant. He did want to help Rodan but he didn't want to bring more pain, physical or mental, to his lover. Looking the youngest in the eye, Ichi murmured, "Look, if you don't do anything, he's gonna lose a lot of blood or get an situation will only get worse after that." Shaking, San feared that this might mean that the injury could actually kill his lover. Not wanting to live in a world without the prehistoric reptile, he quietly nodded his head to his eldest sibling. "Just... do me one thing..." San whimpered, casting his gaze downwards. His eyes still on his little brother, Ichi spoke softly, "Yes?" Looking up again, the left head mumbled, "Can you and Ni not look? I don't want him freaking out."

"You have our word," Ichi replied, dipping his head. Glaring at the both of them, Ni stated, "Speak for yourself next time! I may be attached to you but that doesn't mean you have to speak for me-" The right head was quickly silenced with a whack from the two tails. Deciding to keep his mouth shut, he looked away. Sighing, Ichi nuzzled San before laying his head down to take a nap. Huffing, Ni did the same. Watching his brothers, San now turned his attention to Rodan. The Fire Demon was curled up under his wing, gazing up at him. The look on his face told the dragon he had heard everything. Closing his eyes as tears threatened to fall, the prehistoric reptile whimpered, "Let's just get this done with..."
