《Godzilla: Legend Begins》Chapter 4
Advertisement
Jesse Hudson sat in her zoology class, listening to the lectures the teacher was giving. She had the highest grade in this class, most likely because she pays attention and not goofing off, unlike the other nineteen-year olds in the class.
She ran her fingers through her short brown hair, her light brown eyes scan the classroom boredly. The bell rung suddenly, calling the end of classes. She stood, gathering up her things before walking out of the classroom and down the hall towards the exit.
The sun shined brightly on the city. Jesse listened as the birds sang from the rooftops above as the car horns from the streets blared like a harsh bass drum.
She walked away from the building and down the street, towards a cafe a few blocks away from the campus. She walked inside and sat down at a booth and was greeted by a waitress.
"Hey Jesse, the usual?"
"Yes please."
The waitress smiled before walking away to get Jesse's meal. Jesse got her laptop out of her messenger bag and opened it, booting up. Once it was done, she clicked on google chrome before typing in an address. The webpage loaded up and the name at the top read "Kaiju Index". She clicked on the first link on the right-hand side and a new page loaded.
It had a black and white photo of a large creature standing in a middle of a burning city. It stood upright, three rows of dorsal spines went down it's back. On top of the page was "Kaiju 0: Gojira/Godzilla". Below the photo was statistics listed.
Gojira(JP) Godzilla(AM)
King of the Monsters
Possible mutated dinosaur
Odo Island by Dr. Yamane, 1954
50 Meters
Estimated 40,000 tons
The waitress interrupted her reading over as she walked over and put a plate down beside her laptop, a burger and fries sat neatly on the plate. Jesse said her thanks before beginning to eat her food.

A chime sounded from her laptop, making her turn to her laptop and went to her email and saw that someone had sent one to her. She clicked it and began to read as she started to munch on her fries.
Miss Jesse Hudson,
I am Fubuki Ogata and I am the director of the Kaiju Force. I am contacting you in regards of your site. More specifically, your section on Gojira. Not many know of some of the things you have typed down on the Kaiju and that helped us make us a decision. Despite how young you are and you being a citizen, we request your presence as soon as possible. We have already contacted your collage to let them know that you will be absent for an unknown amount of time. You are already booked for a flight to Tokyo this Friday. Someone from K-Force will be waiting for you at the airport. The attached drawing below is of something that was encountered a year ago, Hopefully, that will help you make your decision.
Fubuki Ogata
Director of K-Force
Below the letter was the said drawing. It was a figure that was colored black. It had a slight hunched stance with jagged spikes coming out of the back and an arm could be seen coming from of the 'chest'.
She chewed her bottom lip, trying to make up her mind before finally sighing. She decided to go, it couldn't hurt to check it out, right?
Pacific Ocean
8:59 pm
Yagani Itura was the captain of the Ashuramaru, a fishing boat that could hold about fifty people and can carry up to three-hundred-Sixty pounds of fish. Yagani was the captain of this ship for twenty-five years now and was still going strong.
He sat in the captain's chair, watching as the waves pound against the ship. He steered carefully through these rough waters as the wiper wiped away the rain and sea water that pelted the window. He had been through storms like this one before so he had plenty of time to become an expert of navigating through storms.

He glanced down at the deck and squinted at the crewmen who seems to be pointing at something in front of the boat. he looked just as there was a flash of lighting. He caught sight of what looked like to be a fin swimming in front of him although he couldn't be sure. He decided to dismiss it and continued on course. He sped up a notch, thinking that it was time to hurry and get out of this storm.
The ship suddenly gave a lurch, signaling that they hit something. He could see the crewmen stumble and grab on to anything that could help them to stay steady. He quickly stopped and turned on the spotlight that sat on the tower that he was in. He slowly moved the controls that moves the light over, the beam of light scanning the rough waters. He was about to turn it off when a column of water came shooting up in front of the boat.
When it died down, a massive thing stood there where the water was shooting up moments before. Yagani managed to keep the light on it.
The chest, stomach and bottom part of the neck was a dark yellow, maybe even a gold color. Its other scales were a rusty red with dark red, almost black bumps all over. Its arms were close to its body, as if it was getting ready to dive back underwater. Suddenly, it let out a loud, cackling-like scream, which was enough got Yagani to snap out of his shocked state and grabbed the radio and started to speak as calm as he could.
"Costal Tower C, this is the Ashuramaru in the pacific. We are being attack by something! It looks like some sort of creature! W-we need som-" He was cut off as a massive, clawed hand impaled into the front deck. It ripped the front of the deck clean off, the crewmen who weren't lucky were flung into the waters below. The spotlight suddenly went out, bathing everything in darkness for a few seconds before the ship was bathed with a greenish light.
"My god..."
The ship exploded, turning into a raging fireball and it slowly sunk beneath the waves, smoking trailing upwards to the sky.

An Id of Primal Chaos
TAG DISCLAIMER: The tags 'Portal Fantasy / isekai', 'High Fantasy', and 'Non-Human Lead' do not take place until later on in the novel. Probably mid-way through the first volume. The 'villainous lead' tag is a very loose tag. Some of the things the mc does can be considered villainous to those with a staunch moral code, however, I have not made the mc out to be overtly villainous. True Title: Advent of the Silent Storm (I came up with the original title a while ago, before I had even written a single chapter. It still kind of fits but this new title fits a lot better. I would change it but I don't know if it would screw up the recommendation algorithm.) Excerpt: My mind wanders through the soup of unconsciousness, still startlingly awake despite my physical form’s stasis. Electricity completely paralyzes the air around me and lightning flashes in a constant strobe of blinding light. The ground, thousands of feet below my being has been wiped clean of all manmade artifice and natural beauty; leveled, through absolute power. My power. Synopsis: Tetal Faelen, a very successful businessman with lofty goals, is introduced to an omniscient being through less than pleasant means. This being has an irresistible offer for Tetal with next to no downside. Tetal can’t help but wonder, “What’s the catch?” Additional Notes: Second novel I have started within the Web of Interconnected Realities. My other novel is not posted on this site so don't bother looking for it. I might post it here in the future.
