Chapter 6: The Holy Empire

Gojira is checking on the slaves, tending to their wounds. Once they're all done, a man suddenly grabs his wrist.

"Please sir. I need to ask you something."

"What is it?"

"We are refugees, fleeing from the Holy Empire's demi human purge. We were captured. Half of us were sold as slave, the rest were going to be brought back to be prosecuted and killed. Please! My wife and children were with that group, you have to save them!"

Gojira's gaze soften, before he place a hand on the man's shoulder.

"I will."

He then leaves the large camp site. He marches up to the gates, before forcing them open. He then starts to run, as fast as possible, over hills and through forests, using his weak telepathy to detect any signs of them. He knew that the Holy Empire was south east, so he had to look from there. Then, he hears something.

"Someone... help me... please."

He stops, feeling for where he felt that. More to the east. He turns and puts on a burst of speed. He then stops when he sees the glow of fires. He peers out of the bushes, to see a large clearing. There a large group of soldiers, laughing and joking. He spots a large group of demi humans out in the darkness. He snarls, steam curling off his body. A guard spots the steam and slowly walks over to him.

"Who's there? Come out!"

A blur of glowing orange kaiju tears out of the bush, slashing the man, before he continues and massacres the guards around the demi-humans. He then pivots, and throws his swords, attached to ethereal chains, which behead several more soldiers. He then pulls back the swords. He glares at the soldiers, his torso, stomach, parts of his arms, his spines and his thighs glowing orange. He then roars with intense fury, scaring birds out of the trees around them.

"Who are you, filthy beastman?! Why do you dare defy us, soldiers of the Holy Empire."

"My name is Gojira. I am here to tell you, that your Empire is absolute shit."

"YOU DARE INSULT US!!! WE SHALL SMITE YOU WITH THE GODESSES HOLY LIGHTNING!!"

"SHE CAN SUCK MY FUCKING DICK!!!"

"DIE!!!"

Thunder crackles, before a massive golden lightning bolt appear from a single cloud, striking Gojira, who only absorbs the charge. He licks his lips.

"Thanks for the charge."

He then burst forwards, cracking the ground beneath his feet, and racing towards the soldiers. He jumps up and drops kicks a soldier, sending her flying into her fellows. He then slashes others off at the waist, before stabbing them through the skull. He then turns and jams his hand through a charging soldiers chest, making it emerge from the man's back. He pulls it, the mans flesh melting and bubbling. He then turns to the last two soldiers.

"HOW?! HOW DID YOU ABSORB THE SACRED GODESSES LIGHTNING?!!"

"I absorb lightning. It powers me up. You just gave me more energy."

He then jumps forwards, and kicks the mans head so hard, it tears off his neck. He then turns to the last one. A young male, shivering in his armor. He grimaces before pointing his sword at the boy.

"Get out of here kid. Warn your superiors, they do something like this again..."

He slashes his sword to his right, and a burning blade of energy slices through several trees, setting the trees alight, and causing an explosion in the distance.

"... I'll burn them all to nothing."

The boy nods, then runs to his horse, and jumps on it, before galloping away. The kaiju sighs, the glowing fading before he collapses to his knees. He slowly stands up, using his sword as a support. He walks over to the prisoners, and destroys the magics chains. He then pulls out a whitish yellow crystal. He then smashes it on the ground, causing a massive dome surrounds them, and in a flash of light, they vanish, and reappear in the camp. Joyous cries soon erupt as families, friends and lovers reunite. The man from before hugs his wife and children, sobbing.

     Gojira smiles, before leaving. Every now and then a memory of his son would flash through his mind, and he smiled sadly. He climbed up the steps, before pushing open the castle doors, saluting the guards as the doors close. But know, he had other things on his mind, other than Junior. He needs to prepare for the inevitable battle coming to them.
