Episode 1: Years Later

## Godzilla: Hotlines S3 Ep1: Years Later

Godzilla: Hotlines S3 Ep1: Years Later is a first episode of S3 that reveals what has been happening since the past 2 years between S2 and S3.

## Plot

Logos start to play as we view an ASI base at an unknown location. It had been at least 2 years after the events of Godzilla: Hotlines S2 as ASI soldiers swarm the base before one of them spots something in the water. [ASI Soldier] “<Open fire!>” (Translated from Japanese) A few ASI Soldiers looked where one of them pointed in the ocean. But when a single row of spikes rose from the ocean, it wasn’t Godzilla’s dorsal spines but something different as a green beast rose up from the ocean, glaring at the base. It was covered in green warts and had some kind of orange hair as it glared at the base. It was Gabara! Gabara roared as the soldiers crowded in fear from the tall beast. As Gabra stomps towards the base, he swat at the incoming ASI jets before smacking one out of the air with his hand as his jaws open wide to let out a furious cry. One soldier ran into the base, looked at the General. [ASI General] “<Alright boys! Commence Project JJ!>” The hanger doors above open up as Gabara, mauling on an ASI jet, turned to notice what machine came out of those hanger doors. It was a humanoid like machine with long pipe arms, red patterns on it as it’s eyes went from black to light blue like it was activated. [ASI General] “<Go! Jet Jaguar!>” It was Jet Jaguar! Jet Jaguar put his fist up as Gabara dropped the ASI jet it was mauling on and slammed his feet down, ready to brawl.

Jet Jaguar made the first move, rushing towards Gabara and punching him square in the face. Gabara groaned in pain and when Jet Jaguar was going to deliver an uppercut, Gabara grabbed his fist and began to slightly crush it but not completely crush it. Jet Jaguar headbutts Gabara to knock the beast down as he looks at his fist. When Gabara got back up, he delivered an elective punch. His fist sparks electively as he punches Jat Jaguar in the face again and again. Repeating the same move as he made dents on his face and body. Jet Jaguar was still a semi prototype mecha to the ASI. When Jet Jaguar fell flat on his stomach as Gabara tail whacked him. Gabara sniffed the air as this wasn’t the mecha that caught his attention and swam away. Jet Jaguar power off as the ASI General watches Gabara leave the area for now. [ASI General] “<Contact Dr. Ishiro. Tell him Gabara strikes again and Jet Jaguar...receive some damages.>” [ASI Soldier] “<Yes sir.>” The ASI General turned to Jet Jaguar being lifted by ASI Helicopters and he sighed. Why did Gabara attack this facility? For what reason. Meanwhile in Fujisawa, Japan, we moved there to put Jasmine under a school where they teach basic Japanese 2 years ago. Much of the Iwi culture was unknown to us Japanese or the Americas. At the beginning, she would mention where she was from while we, Me and Asaka, were buying a house to live in. For the most part, it’s an Rv. Asaka landed a job as an ASI Intern at the base here at Fujisawa, Japan. I was at the RV, teaching Jasmine some Japanese while Asaka was at work. She had walked in the ASI base and sat on the front desk, watching the tour guide pass her. She sighed in boredom. There was really nothing to do as an ASI Intern and so, she sat there. Waiting for her shift to end.

Meanwhile in an ASI Helicopter, Dr. Ishiro was sitting down, looking down at a tablet and scrolling through the known monsters they know like Godzilla, Mothra, Baragon, and others. The species name has been classified as “Monster Class” like “Monster Class: Gojira”. Ishiro sighed when he grabbed the phone that was ringing and picked it up, putting it near his ear. [Ishiro] “<Hello?>” [General Suki on the Phone] “<Dr. Ishiro.>” Ishiro leans forward from surprise. [Ishiro] “<General Suki?!>” [General Suki on the Phone] “<Yeah but listen closely. Gabara keeps interrupting Project Kiryu’s tests. Fuji, Kyoto, and now, Hiroshima. Lucky, he hasn’t found out where Project Kiryu is being kept in storage. I’ll send you the bills for the damage. See you soon Doctor.>” She hung the phone up as Ishiro was about to say something before he looked out the window, wondering if this is the right thing to do or not. But then, as he stared down at the ocean, something rose as his white spikes rose up. It was Gabara! Gabara jumps from the ocean as he roared, nearly smacking Ishiro’s copter as it spun around, out of control. Ishiro held on as Gabara roared but then Gabara’s attention was something in the water as a familiar king burst out of the ocean, biting Gabara’s neck as Ishiro noticed who it was. It was Godzilla! The king has returned after 2 years! Gabara fell on his back as Godzilla let go and let out a furious roar at Gabara, starting this underwater fight.

Gabara swam towards Godzilla without hesitation! Godzilla was surprised at how Gabara is not backing down from the king. Godzilla head butts Gabara to knock him back some. Gabara took the full hit of the head butt and shook it off, swimming towards Godzilla. Meanwhile in Ishiro’s helicopter, he notices both tails of Godzilla and Gabara rise from the ocean as they fight underwater. However, Gabara’s tail leaned forward towards the helicopter and it swung away to avoid making contact with the tail, slamming into the ocean. Then Godzilla’s tail sinked below the ocean and disappears. Where did Godzilla and Gabara go? Ishiro was confused as he looked out the window before the helicopter pilot resumed flying towards the destination. Back at Fujisawa, Japan, I was walking back to the Rv where Jasmine was sitting down, sharpening her spear and I lowered it. [Me] “<It’s alright Jasmine. We have seen Godzilla for over 2 years. Maybe he left us for good.>” [Jasmine] “<Godzilla may come back. It’s only a matter of where and when.>” Jasmine said while sharpening her spear but I walked to her and lowered it. [Me] “<It’s alright.>”

Meanwhile with Ishiro, he was investigating the crime scene where Gabara and Jet Jaguar had their big fight. Why does Gabara keep attacking the facilities? This thought had entered his mind since Gabara’s first attack which almost caused the backfire on Mechagodzilla’s missiles. Ishiro put his hand on his chin as he was thinking. [ASI General] “<Doctor!>” The ASI General of the base walked out, greeting him as they shook hands. [Ishiro] “<You must be the General of this base.>” [ASI General] “<Yes sir. ASI General of the 5th, General Mark. Follow me and we can show you footage of the scene.>” [Ishiro] “<Alright.>” Ishiro followed General Mark as he showed him footage of the beginning of Gabara’s attack before they deployed Jet Jaguar and they fought. The footage stopped when Gabara knocked Jet Jaguar down. [Ishiro] “<What happened after that?>” He asked General Mark, looking back at him. [General Mark] “<He left the scene of the crime.>” [Ishiro] “<You mean..There’s a reason why Gabara is only attacking->” [General Mark] “<That’s right sir. I think we should deploy...it.>” Ishiro looked outside as he noticed Jet Jaguar laying flat on his stomach and those blue eyes glowed once more. However, in the system, something was placed in Jet Jaguar’s net code like some sort of self activation code where we see a hacker in the dark, with a single laptop and hacking into Jet Jaguar’s system to install this “Self Activation Code”. The code would activate when the words, “Jet Jaguar, go!”, are said by any human being. However, when the hacker installed the Self Activation Code, she cheered but that alerted her presence to the ASI as they surrounded her. [ASI Soldier 1]” <Freeze!>” She put her laptop down and put her hands up before the soldiers took her to Ishiro. Ishiro crossed his arms. [Ishiro] “<What did you do?>” [Female Hacker] “<Only gave your dumb creation..>” She turned to Jet Jaguar. [Female Hacker] “<Life.>” The End.
