Princess Celestia

-Manehattan, Ratchet Brothers Auto Shop-

Onyx cautiously pulled himself out from under the desk. His body ached from being in a ball for nearly half of an hour. "Ow." he said to himself as a loud thundering followed by tremors in the ground and the lights flickering rapidly echoed across the buildings.

What he saw next was the strangest thing he'd ever seen. A tremendous, scaly foot slammed into the ground in front of the shop. "Ratchet!" he called.

"What, now!"

"Was the reason you told me to hide because of a giant dinosaur?!"

"No comment!" came his brother's voice.

-The Gates of Canterlot-

"Ah, Commander Hurricane! Good to see you!" Starswirl exclaimed, opening the gates.

"Hello, Starswirl. I need to see Princess Celestia. It's VERY urgent." Hurricane said after taking his helmet off.

"Go ahead." the old unicorn said.

"Thank you."

-Five Minutes Later-

"Hello, Commander." Princess Celestia said, a subtle and warming smile across her face.

After briefly bowing to the royal alicorn, Thunder Hooves rose back up. "Your majesty. I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but something bad is happening in Manehattan."

Celestia's smile vanished. "Whatever is the problem?"

Commander Hurricane sighed briefly before saying, "Manehattan is being attacked by a giant creature resembling a dinosaur, as we speak. My military forces are doing their best to protect the citizens but I fear they can not do it for long."

"I see." Princess Celestia said calmly.

"I suggest we use nuclear power to kill the monster."

"That's an idea. But what about the fallout?" Celestia asked.

"We lure the beast to the ocean, where we use a nuclear bomb to kill the beast." Hurricane said.

Princess Celestia contemplated the situation. Commander Hurricane's idea was certainly a fascinating one. But would it work? She didn't know for sure, and she didn't want to take chances.

"Commander. While that is certainly ONE way to do things, it is also a very dangerous way to do things." she said.

"I understand, your majesty."

"Instead, go back to Manehattan. Seek out the brothers known as Ratchet and Onyx. They are capable of building a weapon that can destroy the beast that you fear may destroy the city." she said with confidence.

"Yes, your majesty." Commander Hurricane said, glumly, "But how will I find them?"

"The stallions own a shop called 'The Ratchet Brothers Auto Shop'. It should be easy enough to find." Princess Celestia answered.

"I won't let you down!" Hurricane boomed, saluting the princess.

-Tokyo, Neighpon-

The long cracking of buildings was the least of Tokyo, Neighpon's residents. A flashing blue light caught the attention of many. Followed by a burst of blue light. The King of Monsters had arrived.

A shrieking bellow echoed across the city of Tokyo as a massive shape pushed it's way across the crumbling metropolis. The military's weapons were useless for defending the citizens of Neighpon, and even nuclear weapons are useless against the saurian.

Godzilla swiveled his head and flared his nostrils, as if sensing something... Another monster. The king's pupils constricted like a cat's eyes as the beast suddenly changed it's heading, leaving a flattened and barely recognizable Tokyo behind him.

Diving into the ocean's depths, Godzilla won't be seen in Neighpon again for many years.
