Match 20442 Godzilla vs. Zillo Beast

[Boratz]

1948

Shortly after the devastation of World War II, Japan was still in a state of healing. Countless lives were lost in the horrors of the war and with the emergence of atomic weapons, an era of rebuilding began. It was not long after the war that the country had found a new horror arise from the depths of the sea. This threat brought tragedy to an already hurting country that was in a state of healing and rebuilding. Thousands of lives were lost in the initial attack and many more were reported missing. It took a great effort from the weary citizens of Japan to rise up and put an end to the threat that had become known across Japan as Gojira. It was an event that became known as Minus One in Japan. In the months following the creature's defeat, a worldwide effort came about to aid the hurting people and country. Several countries from around the world gathered to help Japan in the devastating aftermath of Gojira's brutal rampage. 

After Gojira's defeat, there was an effort to study the origins of the beast on Odo Island,  where the creature was first discovered. Many of the island's natives came up with the name Gojira after tales that were passed down to them from a time long forgotten. The name had spread to countries across the globe and had been translated into the name of Godzilla. While some leaders sought to study the origins of the beast in hopes of harnessing its power, there were many that simply wanted to find ways to prevent any future tragedies that may arise if another beast rose to the surface. After the rise of Godzilla and the introduction to the atomic era, the world was in an age of frightening discoveries. Many feared that Godzilla was the harbinger for things to come in the unimaginable and uncertain age of atomic weapons. With the growing uncertainty, many leaders started to prepare for the unknown.

The malicious groups that sought to harness this unimaginable power for their own interests had begun their efforts in the broken cities in Japan. As a means of trying to prevent any of this power from falling into the wrong hands, intelligence agencies from around the world had sent operatives to the devastated cities in the guise of relief efforts. These humanitarian efforts proved beneficial for the struggling people of Japan. In a time and place when the country was struggling to regain a sense of normalcy after the bombings. The suffering in Japan only worsened with the arrival of Godzilla. Many lives were lost and several homes were destroyed. There were countless families that were torn apart and left broken. Children were left to wander the devastation after being orphaned by the horrors that had occurred. There were widows that stayed up night after night in search of their loved ones that were lost in the creature's rampage. The country needed healing and it needed something that many had forgotten after the tragedies that had occurred. The people needed hope. 

In the early months of the year, a plane had descended from the sky above. It was plane that carried different groups from around the world to help bring aid to the healing country of Japan. One of the individuals on this plane was an intelligence officer by the name of Peggy Carter. She was accompanied by Howard Stark's assistant, Edwin Jarvis. They were tasked by the SSR to work covertly in the relief operations in Tokyo. Peggy was hesitant at first but she received word from a source that a former rival of hers that was once affiliated with Leviathan had been seen in Japan. After this rival's escape from SSR custody, Agent Carter was determined to stop her once and for all. As the plane landed, Peggy glanced over at Jarvis, who was tinkering with a device that Howard had invented. Before they left, Howard had said that he was working on a device that would be able to help with translating the language. A smirk formed across Carter's bright red lips after she saw the frustration on Jarvis' face. 

Before Peggy could say anything, she heard a familiar voice from inside the plane's cabin. Carter forced a smile as she saw Angie Martinelli walk up to them. The aspiring actress had said that they were about to land soon. Before Peggy could respond, Angie was told to find her seat so they could prepare for the landing. Carter was slightly nervous about her friend being there. She had heard Angie volunteered for one of the relief efforts back in the states and somehow, she was one of the ladies selected to go to Tokyo to help out with the humanitarian work. Angie was convinced that it would help bring a certain level of sympathy to her so that she could use it in her pursuits on Broadway. The intelligence officer felt that Stark had something to do with her being on this trip. Peggy leaned back in her seat as the wheels of the plane touched down on the runway.

After the plane landed, Angie and the others in her nonprofit group were led away on a bus to go to where they would be staying. Agent Carter and Jarvis were getting situated outside the airport. While Jarvis was getting his luggage loaded up in the back of a car, Peggy noticed a small hooded figure run into the back of him. The figure then ran off into the street. A smile formed over Peggy's bright red lips as she tossed her bag into Jarvis' hands. Before Jarvis could respond, he saw Peggy darting off into the streets. He grumbled something under his breath while laying down Peggy's bag. He stumbled back and felt the back of his pocket. "Oh, bugger!" He exclaimed once her realized that his wallet was missing. Jarvis glanced back at the direction of the running Carter. He soon lost sight of her in the crowd. Jarvis did his best to regain his composure as he was soon met by their contact in Tokyo.

While pursuing the small thief that stole Jarvis' wallet, Peggy could tell that they was young. The thief was only a child. Despite Peggy being taller and faster, the child knew the area. The thief had probably done this several times before and was accustom to all the routes to take. As Peggy quickly scoped out the area, she formulated an idea to intercept the small thief. Peggy slid over the hood of a car and ran through an alleyway. She turned a corner and charged toward an opening. Soon she came face to face with the small thief. The small child fell back on the pavement and looked up at the foreigner. Peggy reached down and ripped off the piece of cloth that was covering the thief's face. Carter's dark brown eyes widened as she saw the face of the child. The child was no older than 10 or 11 years old. She was glaring up at the foreigner as she tried to crawl away. Peggy grabbed the young girl and kept her from escaping. Carter brought her to her feet and gently pinned her against a brick wall in the alleyway.

"Where are you parents?" Peggy asked as she snatched Jarvis' wallet from the young girl's hands. 

The young girl started to mutter something in her native language that Peggy could not understand. From the tone in her voice, Carter knew that it was something derogatory. Before Peggy could respond, she heard a voice from behind. "That was not a nice thing to say." A male voice said. Peggy turned back and saw Jarvis standing next to a young man. Peggy presumed it was their contact. Soon the young man and the small girl started talking to one another in their native language. They were arguing back and forth while Peggy stood back to hand Jarvis his wallet. As the young thief and the SSR contact continued their heated exchange, Agent Carter and Jarvis stood next to one another.

"This is our contact." Jarvis grinned as he gestured at the young man.

"I presumed as much." Peggy replied with a smirk. "How did you find me?"

"Mr. Stark put a tracking device in my wallet. I do not believe this is what he had in mind when he created it." Jarvis replied. 

The bickering between young man and the small thief finally stopped. While holding the child by the arm, the young man turned his attention to Jarvis and Agent Carter.

"Who is she?" Carter asked.

"Just one of the many orphans that this country has after everything that has happened. Her father was a soldier. During the war, he left and never returned. Her mother was a nurse and she died during Godzilla's rampage. She has been on her own ever since." The contact replied.

"That was over a year ago!" Jarvis exclaimed.

"It is why she does what she does. She has learned to survive on her own. Many of these orphans have." The contact replied. 

"She must come with us!" Jarvis said with a concerned look.

"Mr. Jarvis, we can't. We are here for a mission." Agent Carter replied. 

"We have to help her. She is only a child." Jarvis pleaded. 

"Do not let what happened to Ana cloud your judgment. We have a mission!" Agent Carter snapped.

"Agent Carter, please, this has nothing to do with that. This is a child. She has nothing. She has no one. We can help. The penthouse that Mr. Stark rented us is more than accommodating for us and her." Jarvis argued. 

"Very well, but she is your responsibility." Agent Carter relented. 

"What is the child's name?" Jarvis asked their contact.

"Her name is Sutefani." The contact replied. 

Days became weeks and weeks became months as their work in Tokyo had begun. During that time, Sutefani had grown close with Jarvis. There were even pleasant moments that were shared between her and Peggy. Jarvis could not help but laugh at one moment when the young girl had taken some of Agent Carter's make up and lipstick to out on her own face. While Carter continued to work on finding Dottie Underwood, she even started to have a soft spot forming for the young child. As time had passed, Peggy started to care deeply for the child. One day, Sutefani had left the penthouse to venture out into the streets. Jarvis saw that Peggy was worried as they could not locate the young girl.

"Don't tell me that the mighty Agent Carter has grown to care for the child." Jarvis grinned.

"I never fancied myself a mother. It never crossed my mind. During the war, it seemed it was always the next mission or the next battle. Even with the SSR, it was always the next assignment. There is something about her, she has a courage and a resilience that I've only seen once before." Peggy replied. 

"In Steve Rodgers?" Jarvis asked.

Peggy nodded and then looked off for a moment. "Perhaps if things had been different and I had the right partner, then maybe..." Peggy said before going quiet.

Before Jarvis could respond, Sutefani and their contact walked into the penthouse. Peggy let out a sigh of relief as she turned her head away from the child. The young girl saw Peggy turn away and ran over toward Jarvis.

"I think I have a lead on your target." The contact said as he stepped closer toward Agent Carter.

"What is it?" Peggy asked.

"There is a facility near the coast. One of my associates spotted a female that matched her description entering the facility." The contact replied. 

Peggy nodded before walking toward her room. "We will head there in 30 minutes. I need to get ready." Peggy said while she was walking toward her room, her eyes locked onto Sutefani. She wanted to say something, but she could not find the right words. Agent Carter turned her attention to Jarvis and nodded at him. Jarvis knew that he was going to stay behind to look after the girl. After Peggy got prepared for the mission, she headed out with the contact. The young girl ran up to Peggy and wrapped her arms around the SSR agent's waist. Peggy sighed while putting one of her arms around the child. 

"I will be back. I promise." Peggy said softly while walking out the door. 

As they drove through Tokyo, Peggy saw the pain in the people's faces. In the months that she had been here, she saw the devastation. It reminded her of the war and the tragedies that it had caused. While they were heading toward their destination, Agent Carter could not help but think about Sutefani. The bombs and Godzilla brought this much pain to her home. She knew that if Dottie Underwood and her associates were truly trying to harness this power, than there would be worldwide chaos. Peggy also realized that this power was not even worthy of humanity. She could not even allow her own allies to obtain this destructive force of nature. Peggy could see that the sun had begun to set and she could also see the ocean in the horizon. The contact assured her that they were close to the facility. Peggy took a steady breath while leaning back against her seat. 

They drove along the coast and Carter could see several boats departing from the facility. As they got near a secluded area, the contact stopped the vehicle a short distance away. While heading up to a vantage point, Peggy could see what appeared to be explosives being loaded onto the different boats that were leaving the facility. Several theories formed in her mind as to what they were being used for. Hidden in the night, Peggy and the contact were able to sneak into the facility. They were able to quietly evade detection as they made their way through the different corridors. Agent Carter and the contact soon found themselves inside what appeared to be a research room. The SSR Agent saw several documents scattered over a desk. Peggy reached down and started looking through the different papers. She cussed under her breath as a small gasp escaped her bright red lips. Carter opened up a bag and slid the documents inside.

The documents contained information for the same organization that Dotty Underwood was working for. This organization was conducting research near Odo Island and its surrounding underwater caves. They were using explosives to try locate other species similar to Godzilla. In the documents, it appeared as if the organization was able to locate one and trap it within the facility. The research and testing that was being conducted was sickening. From the moment the creature was captured to now, it had grown exponentially. The code name for the creature in the files was listed under Zillo. It was described as a beast. Peggy could not imagine what Dotty's allies had planned for the Zillo Beast. She could not even imagine what her own allies would have planned for such a creature. She knew it would only be a matter of time before the creature was used as a weapon of war and more devastation would occur. Agent Carter looked up at the contact. A look of concern had overtaken him.

"We have to destroy it." He muttered frantically. "We have to....."

The sound of a single gunshot filled the room. A blood stain formed over the contact's chest while he went silent. His eyes widened as he looked down at the blood on his chest. He slowly looked back up at Agent Carter before collapsing on the floor. Peggy immediately dived behind one of the metal desks. She drew out her pistol and looked over at her contact. His chest was no rising or lowering, and a pool of dark red blood formed under his body. From where he was shot, the bullet penetrated his heart. Agent Carter knew that he was gone.

"Oh Peg, is that you?!" Dottie yelled with a sinister smile. 

"You can't do this, Dotty!" Agent Carter screamed.

"Why is that, Peg? It's not right for the world?" Dottie mocked. 

"You've seen what these things can do. This power is not worthy of any nation." Agent Carter argued. 

"It is pretty devestating, isn't it? But, I was hired to see this through. Even if that means putting a bullet between those gorgeous brown eyes of yours and wiping countries off the map!" Dottie laughed as she jumped around the desk.

Dottie's skin almost went cold once she realized that Peggy was not there. Dottie stood back and heard a sound from behind her. She realized that the SSR Agent had gotten the drop on her. Peggy aimed her pistol as the assassin. She knew that one little mistake and this ruthless assassin could escape once again. Dottie dropped her pistol on the floor and slowly turned around to face her enemy. A cold grin formed across Dottie's pale cheeks. 

"You captured me again!" She bellowed while raising her hands up in the air. 

"Not this time." Agent Carter hissed while preparing to execute the assassin. 

Dottie lunged to the side, but Peggy was able to get off a shot. The assassin darted out of the room and ran down the long hallway. Peggy steadily walked out of the room with her gun drawn. As she walked into the hallway, she noticed drops of blood leading down the corridors. The SSR Agent followed the drops of blood down the long, dark hallway. The farther she walked, the more blood there was on the floors. Agent Carter soon found that the blood led into a control room. The SSR Agent slowly sauntered into the room and found several machines scattered through the room. Peggy then saw Dottie leaning against one of the machines. There was blood running down her legs as she had one of her hands on a lever. The assassin grinned as she struggled for air.

"Huh." Dottie chuckled as she started couching up blood. "You got me, Pegs."

With what strength she had left, the assassin pulled down the lever before Peggy could react. Peggy shot Dottie twice in the chest and watched as the assassin's lifeless body fell back on the floor. While standing over the assassin's body, Agent Carter heard alarms ringing throughout the facility. She walked over and peered out of a window. There were flashing lights surrounding a section of the facility and what appeared to be a large paddock opening wide into the night.

"Oh, no." She muttered under her breath. A dark outline emerged from the large paddock. Peggy could see the night light up with gunfire as several guards tried to take down this enormous dark figure. Peggy then watch as the creature unleashed its rage on its attackers. She then saw it head off into the night. Peggy soon realized that this Zillo Beast was heading in the direction of Tokyo. "Jarvis! Sutefani!" Peggy yelled as she started running toward the exit. The SSR Agent had to get back to Tokyo as quickly as possible. She had to make sure that Jarvis and Sutefani were safe. Peggy ran as fast she could back to the vehicle. The engine of the jeep roared to life as she sped off on the dark road. 

Agent Carter followed the trail of destruction down the long dark road. She could see glimpses of power lines ripped apart and dozens of tree completely uprooted. It almost appeared as if a tornado had touched down on the world and set path of destruction toward Tokyo. The SSR Agent drove past vehicles that were smashed beyond recognition. As she sped into the outskirts of Tokyo, she could hear the sirens blaring through the streets. While many were trying to evacuate, Peggy was trying to make her way to the penthouse that they were staying at. She was able evade debris that had been thrown down onto the streets and drive around parts of parts of buildings that had been knocked over from the Zillo Beast's rampage. Peggy soon found that a bus had blocked her path. The SSR Agent was about to put the jeep in reverse, but one of the individuals on the bus caught her attention. Agent Carter almost went silent as she saw Angie and several others trapped on the bus.

Peggy jumped out of the jeep to see if she could help those on the bus escape. Angie had seen Peggy through the window. A sense of relief fell over her as she said, "English." Before Agent Carter could reach the bus, the bus was knocked away into a building by the rage filled Zillo Beast. Peggy fell back on the ground and watched in horror as the building had turned into a fiery inferno. She watched as the Zillo Beast continued to move throughout the city. Peggy quickly got to her feet and started running toward the direction of the penthouse. In her heart, she mourned for her friend but she knew there was no time to waste. She had to rescue Jarvis and Sutefani. She could not lose them too. After finally reaching the penthouse, Peggy was relieved to see that it was still intact. She then saw that a large piece of debris had fallen against entrance of the  penthouse. The SSR Agent grabbed a large metal pipe and was able to pry away the debris. Agent Carter broke the door open and saw that Jarvis and Sutefani were alive inside the penthouse. They were trying to escape before the door became impossible to open.

Carter led them outside into the streets. As they were making their way through the rubble and debris, something caused them to stop. Jarvis went completely silent as Sutefani held onto Peggy's arm as tight as she could. The Zillo Beast was standing before them. There was no where to run and no where to hide from the giant beast. Suddenly, the ground started to shake beneath them as a stomping sound could be heard through the chaos. Peggy could feel Sutefani's grip grow tighter as her body started to tremble. A chill ran down the young girl's spine as her skin went cold. Before she could say a world, a thunderous roar had shattered through the city. The three turned their heads to see the great terror that had wreaked havoc on Japan the previous year. From the depths of the sea, they realized that Godzilla had returned once again. The Great monster had come to face off against the Zillo Beast to claim the title as King of the Monsters.

Nice story Boratz!

Goji’s got this! The Zillo Beast was killed by far inferior weapons then the kind Big G causally walks through. Nuclear weapons, asteroids, the freaking Oxygen Destroyer to name a few.

[Venom 2009]

Good match. Nice to see a match with the Minus One version of Godzilla. I give the setup a 5.0.
