-Godzilla Defense Ponies Neighpon Head Quarters-

"Mechagodzilla test run starting in five... four... three... two... one... Mechagodzilla is now active!" a voice on the intercom burst. With that, a screen displayed a massive robot. It had the same basic appearance as the King of Monsters. Tall dorsal spines, long tail, and a robust build.

Mechagodzilla, or Kiryu... As the Godzilla Defense Ponies called it. 65 thousand tons of pure awesome.

A telephone rang as ponies cheered at the successfully running machine. Yuji Shinoda put the phone to his ear. "This is Yuji Shinoda. How can I help you?" he asked with a Neighponese accent. "You're kidding?! NOW...? But we just started the first test run! It's not re-! Captain Gordon...? My old friend...! I will see what I can do... Okay... Bye now." Yuji said, putting the phone back on the receiver.

-30 Minutes Later-

"Everypony! I have an announcement! Please, quiet down!" the Prime Minister boomed, gesturing for the ponies to calm down. He then leaned over and covered the microphone. "Are you sure about this, Yuji?" he asked the scientist next to him.

"Absolutely positive!" he replied.

"Okay." the minister said. He then returned to the crowd's attention. "Excuse me? But could I have everypony take a seat, please?!" he yelled. "EVERYPONY, TAKE A SEAT!!" he boomed, losing his temper. With that, everypony fell dead silent, sitting down. "Thank you!" the Prime Minister said. "Now that we have that settled, I would like to introduce scientist, Yuji Shinoda!"

Yuji waved as a roar of applaud struck the air like a missile. The Prime Minister handed the microphone to Shinoda. "Thank you." he said. He then began a speech. "Now, I know that this is on short notice, but it is for good reason." he started. "I received a call from an old friend of mine, the infamous, Captain Douglass Gordon."

The crowd applauded accordingly.

"He has received word that Godzilla has made landfall in Manehattan, clashed with another monster, and returned to sea! BUT, we must take precautions! Captain Gordon has requested use of the Mechagodzilla! Now, we are all fully aware that the Mecha G may not be ready to go into battle. But it's for the lives of our citizens of Equestria!" he yelled. "Captain Gordon has volunteered to pilot the Mechagodzilla. I say... LET HIM!!"

The crowd erupted into cheering and applaud. Yuji handed the microphone back to the Prime Minister. "Now that that is settled, let's make preparations! The captain has agreed to be hear in two days time! And we want Kiryu ready for battle!"

"65 thousand tons of awesome." Yuji chuckled to himself. "Built, like a boss."

-Canterlot Castle, Military Head Quarters-

Captain Gordon finished packing his saddle bags, preparing himself for the long trip ahead. "I can't wait to see what that baby can do." he said to himself, referring to the Mechagodzilla.

Suddenly, Colonel Obsidia limped in, startling Gordon. "Hey." she said, wincing in pain.

"Don't do that!" Douglass Gordon exclaimed, glaring at the colonel.

"I came to wish you good luck on the battlefield." Obsidia said, ignoring Douglass' remark. "You're gonna need it against that THING out there." she continued. "And, by the way, that wasn't a very smart move putting your gun to Celestia's head. I'm starting to think you should've been LEFT in Military Confinement."

"You heard about that?" Captain Gordon said, rubbing the back of his head in embarrassment.

"Heard about it?! Half of Celestia's subjects were pissed off about it! There wasn't hardly a place to go where the situation wasn't being spoken of!" she replied, raising an eyebrow. "I'd say you lost your temper for NOTHING."

"Oh, shut your pie hole!" Gordon growled.

"Anyway. Are Ratchet and Onyx going with you?" she asked, staring at the floor.

"Yep. They have to so that they can fire off the Oxygen Destroyer." Gordon replied, not looking up from his stuff as he packed.

"I thought that YOU were firing the weapon." she said with a quizzical look on her face.

"I was." Gordon started. "But plans changed when I volunteered to pilot the Mechagodzilla. So now, ONYX is firing the weapon off." he finished as he zipped up his suitcase.

-Canterlot Castle, Mechanic's Shop-

Onyx swiftly tossed toiletries into his duffel bag, moving back and forth across the shop. Ratchet watched his younger brother speed around the shop. "Will you calm down?!" he asked Onyx.

"Are you kidding?! This is the opportunity of a lifetime. How could I possibly calm down?" he asked excitedly.

"To start, you could, oh, I don't know. SLOW DOWN!" Ratchet yelled as Scarlet Blitz entered the shop.

"Hi, guys. What's going on?" she asked as Onyx sped by her, looking at the tool rack. "What's up with HIM?" she asked, Ratchet, looking at Onyx like he had three heads.

"We're going to Neighpon to stop Godzilla." Ratchet answered flatly.

"REALLY?! Can I come?! I've always wanted to go there!" she exclaimed.

Onyx screeched to a halt and stared hard at Scarlet Blitz. "NO." he replied sternly. "I don't want you to get hurt." he continued, lightly tapping a hoof on her snout.

"Oh, knock it off!" she growled, pushing his hoof away. "I survived the attack of a 200 foot long lizard. What makes you think I can't survive this?!" she asked, glaring at Onyx.

"Because THIS lizard, is 400 feet long and dubbed 'The King of all Monsters'." he replied.

Suddenly, the entire castle shook. "What the Heck?" Ratchet muttered as the ceiling above them cracked and shook. "GET OUT!!" Ratchet boomed. "BOTH OF YOU!"

Onyx and Scarlet Blitz scrambled for the exit. Onyx screeched to a halt. "The Oxygen Destroyer!" He then spun around and raced for his weapon, stuffed it in his duffel bag, and raced from the room, Scarlet following close behind.

Then, the ceiling of the shop collapsed as Ratchet was getting out. "RRRRGGHH!!" he yelled in pain as the back half of his body was covered with rubble.

"RATCHET!!" Onyx yelled, dropping his bag and running to his brother to aid him. "I got you! Just hold still!" he yelled trying to pull his brother from the pile of debris.

"GAK! Onyx, there's no time. You gotta get out of hear!" Ratchet yelled at his younger brother.

"NO! I'm not leaving you! I can get you out!" the young stallion cried, grabbing his brother's hooves.

"It's all on you now." Ratchet growled. ". And make that scaly son of a B**** bleed for me."

"NO!" Onyx yelled as the rest of the roof collapsed on Ratchet, revealing a tremendous head with one, gleaming, red eye.

"Onyx, let's GO!" Scarlet screamed. Onyx lowered his head before turning away from the remnants of the auto shop and racing down the castle halls.

-Canterlot Castle, Military Head Quarters-

The floor beneath Captain Gordon's hooves began to shake. "What the Hell?" he muttered to himself. Gordon listened as a loud shriek echoed through the castle halls. He instantly recognized the noise as an old enemy of the King of Monsters; Gigan.

Grabbing his suitcase, Gordon sprinted for the door.

-Unknown Place and Time-

"Ha, ha, ha, ha!!" the stallion laughed. "Yes! Rise to make an empire FALL, Gigan!" he yelled to himself, an evil smile crossed his wicked face. "The sooner we have this kingdom defeated, the sooner I can rule this world!"

"X...? What are you doing?" a voice asked.

"Nothing, father!" the xillian said, grimacing as he swiftly put his viewing globe away.

"Good. We want to appear friendly to this race. So I want NO invading, or unleashing the monsters, or threatening this race like you did the last, understand?" the stallion asked.

"Yes, Father!"

-Outside Canterlot Castle-

Captain Gordon rushed outside to see the tremendous shape of a cyborg towering above him, scythe like arms swinging at the Canterlot Castle.

Captain Gordon didn't hesitate to pull his revolver from it's holster. Whether it hurt the monster or not, Gordon didn't know. What he DID know was that it would at least distract the alien monster.

A loud CRACK! hit the air as the bullet flew from the gun's barrel, harmlessly bouncing off of Gigan's thick armor. "The heck with it!" Gordon roared. Gigan hadn't noticed him.

Douglass rushed for the barracks, searching through luggage for a weapon. At last, he found it; the AT4 CS, a rocket launcher that the military used frequently. Captain Gordon smiled to himself as he swung the weapon onto his shoulder.

He took aim... and fired.

The missile screamed through the air like a jet and exploded against Gigan's armor, nearly knocking the chaotic kaiju to the ground. Shrieking angrily, Gigan turned to face Captain Gordon, his missile launcher still streaming smoke as he loaded another piece of ammunition.

"You should watch what you eat!" Gordon growled as the AT4 bucked in his arms, firing a projectile into Gigan's maw.

-Canterlot Castle, Throne Room-

"Your Majesty, we have to go, NOW!" a servant yelled at Princess Celestia, beckoning her from the throne room. "It's complete CHAOS!" he boomed, grabbing the princess by the hoof.

"Luna, c'mon!" the monarch yelled to hr younger sister.

"Right!" Luna replied, throwing out her wings and sprinting across the marble floors. She leapt into the air and beat her long, feathered wings, rising into the air. She was followed by Celestia.

-Canterlot Castle-

Onyx raced down the long halls, followed by Scarlet Blitz. His eyes began to water as he thought of Ratchet. His brother. He thought of his outburst when Ratchet had returned to the shop, when the brothers apologized.

"Onyx! We're almost to the entrance!" Scarlet yelled, focusing Onyx's thoughts on why he was running.

"Right!"

They had almost escaped when a massive, glowing red eye glared in at them, followed by the sound of explosions. The beast before them shrieked angrily and lifted it's head.

"Oh my God." Onyx muttered to himself as the sight of a massive charcoal grey shape advanced toward the castle.
