G-FORCE CHRONICLES

                In the massive cargo bay of the SS Venture, the air was frigid. A cool haze fluttered about from time to time from the combination of the fans and coolant. The center piece in the bay was the frozen sea dragon, Manda. Several Monarch scientists were in the bay with the massive beast as well; taking samples, readings, and whatever data they could obtain about the kaiju. During all the activity, Ken and Akira entered the bay from a door not far from the monster’s head.                Akira’s eyes glazed open in wonder as he said, “Incredible… Simply incredible!”                Ken was taken back by the kaiju as well. He looked over every detail of Manda’s dragon-like grimace.                “To think,” Akira said as they ...

  On a small island off the coast of Vancouver, the midday sunlight reflected off the metal alloy body of Kiryu with a silver aura as the Mecha-Godzilla stood in a braced stance along the sandy shore. The waves crashed slightly against one of its clawed feet while the other was dug slightly into the sand and rocks of the beach. The mech was standing as still as a statue but braced for battle.

In the sky above, Akane circled in the Super X-3 looking helplessly down on the battlefield.                “Bri!” Akane called out into the mic. “Can you hear me!?” There was no response. “Pero-2, run a diagnostic scan of Kiryu’s systems.”                “Running scan!” Pero-2 said.                Akane waited patiently as she continued to circle. By that time Manda caught sight of the Super X-3 and watched with a vengeful stare as it did not forget how the super-jet interrupted its fight with Kiryu. With the aircraft keeping its distance, Manda’s attention became short-lived. It slithered its way to a higher elevation on the small island.    ...
