Chapter Two
"Alright, you two lovebirds take care of yourselves! Especially you my Queen!" Rodan called over his shoulder before spreading his wings and taking to the air. Waving to the massive prehistoric reptile with one foot while the other rested on her round stomach, Mothra smiled and chirped, "You take too! Bye!" Watching as the Fire Demon flew away from himself and the Queen of the Monsters, Godzilla was mentally scratching his head. Turning to his pregnent wife, the King asked, "Did he just call us lovebirds?"
Laughing to himself as he soared effortlessly on the wind, Rodan breathed in the fresh air. After three and a half years, the other Titans had finally forgiven the King of the Skies for what had happened during the Battle of the False King. Mothra had forgiven him right away and the others slowly followed suit. Godzilla still held a grudge with the Fire Demon until today. The prehistoric reptile had gotten one of the biggest surprises of his entire life when the King of the Monsters had invited him over for a visit. Then again, the reptile had saved the Queen the other day from a rockslide. That's probably what did the trick. He had been flying around one day, feeling lonely like he always did but more so after being shunned by all his former friends, when he noticed the Queen of the Monsters resting on a beach. Out in the ocean was the King, looking for food. At the same time, the Fire Demon had noticed rocks of all shapes and sizes rolling down towards the pregnant giant moth. At first giving off a warning screech, he knew there was no way Godzilla would reach Mothra in time. Without even thinking, Rodan had swooped down and grabbed the winged insect, flying her away just in the nick of time. By the time the King had arrived at the beach after hearing the screech, Mothra had recovered from her shock and was showering the prehistoric reptile with praises. He had been deemed as a hero. His medal of honor was the restored bonds of trust between himself and Godzilla, along with everyone else.
Seeing his smoking volcano up ahead, Rodan breathed a sigh of relief. He had spent the entire day in the company of the King and the Queen of the Monsters, along with all the other Titans. What he needed right now was a dip in the molten lava in his volcano home. And then maybe fall asleep right there and then. The perfect end to the perfect day. His wings scorching a few trees as he arrived at the summit, the King of the Skies dived right into the lava pool. A sigh escaping from his beak, the large Titan submerged his head underneath the surface. Staying under for a few seconds, he popped his head out. Purring quietly as he flipped over onto his back, Rodan closed his yellow eyes. Feeling sleep coming to him, he mumbled softly, "This is the life..."
"Oh! You're loving the lifestyle you've created for yourself?" a familiar voice, one Rodan knew too well, grumbled, "Well I hope you've enjoyed it long enough cuz it's about to get a LOT worse... and I can promise you this, you're gonna wish you were never even BORN!"
