Dr. Animo had hopped off it and kept out of the way of the fight, seemingly unconcerned about the frog losing to Rath. Rath noticed this in his usual anger. \u201cHEY! HEY! CAN\u2019T YOU SEE THAT RATH\u2019S BEATING UP YOUR FROG?!\u201d he bellowed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnd you presume that the frog is the only animal under my control?\u201d asked Dr. Animo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHuh?\u201d asked Rath. Then the ground shook again. This time, the tremors caught the Doctor\u2019s attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAll right, what is it?\u201d she asked. \u201cAnts? Termites?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c\u2026Kaiju,\u201d replied Dr. Animo with a wicked grin. Crystals then sprouted from the ground! \u201cSpecifically, a cosmic Kaiju from 1995!\u201d Dr. Sato gasped as memories of her home of Fukuoka flooded her mind. She remembered three giants, two against one. One of the giants had crystals growing out of it and used the Fukuoka Tower as a power source!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c\u2026S\u2026Space\u2026!\u201d she whispered in terror.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDr. Sato?\u201d asked the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c\u2026He\u2019s back!\u201d whimpered Dr. Sato.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYou lot have 24 hours to surrender San Francisco to me,\u201d called Dr. Animo, \u201cor my newest acquisition marches across the United States and destroys not only Washington D.C, but New York City as well!\u201d He hopped back on his frog and made his escape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHEY! HEY!\u201d called Rath. \u201cRATH ISN\u2019T DONE WITH YOU!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBen, never mind him!\u201d protested Amy. \u201cWe\u2019ve got bigger problems!\u201d Rath looked back to see Dr. Sato curling up in a ball. He then looked back at the escaping Dr. Animo\u2026but his moral compass was still Ben\u2019s. He slapped the Omnitrix symbol and returned to his true form as Ben and went to help Dr. Sato with Julie helping him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCome on, Dr. Sato,\u201d he encouraged. \u201cLet\u2019s get you somewhere safe.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSafe?!\u201d asked Dr. Sato. \u201cNowhere is safe now! Don\u2019t you understand?! SPACEGODZILLA HAS RETURNED!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSpaceGodzilla?\u201d asked Lurra Rus as she, Amy, and the Doctor were in a lab so the Doctor could study a fragment of the crystals that grew. \u201cWhat manner of creature is that?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA clone,\u201d replied the Doctor. \u201cSpecifically, the clone of the Kaiju that holds the title of King of the Monsters.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnd what\u2019s a Kaiju?\u201d asked Amy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA giant animal that is fiercely intelligent and regards smaller life forms as we do with ants,\u201d explained the Doctor. \u201cThis particular Kaiju is one of the most intelligent Kaiju around, with a head for strategy and tactics. He\u2019s the result of the cells of the King of the Monsters somehow being mutated by radiation and space minerals and coming together to form his clone. The original King of the Monsters is called Godzilla by most of the world, his space clone is called SpaceGodzilla.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnd, hopefully the last stupid question,\u201d said Lurra Rus, \u201ccan Dr. Animo really control such a beast.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIf you\u2019re worried that it\u2019s a stupid question, it\u2019s generally not,\u201d assured the Doctor. \u201cStraight answer, not for any significant time. Kaiju brains CAN overcome mental control. The real question is how long Dr. Animo can control SpaceGodzilla.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnd what kind of catastrophe would be unleashed when he inevitably loses control?\u201d asked Amy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cQuestions none of us want answered. \u2026I did some analysis of the crystals. It looks like the latent chronons surrounding them came from 1995.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSo it was SpaceGodzilla that went through that chronal surge,\u201d said Lurra Rus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBut he was supposed to die in \u201995,\u201d continued the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c\u2026What year is this?\u201d asked Amy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c2025.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBut if SpaceGodzilla fights the Godzilla of this time and dies-!\u201d gulped Lurra Rus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt would exacerbate the Grouping,\u201d confirmed the Doctor, \u201cand unthread the Web of Time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHow do we get a giant monster to go back to its original time?\u201d asked Amy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t know,\u201d replied the Doctor, hating that she had to say that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c\u2026Maybe\u2026Maybe Ben can use Time Walker?\u201d suggested Amy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not as easy as that,\u201d replied the Doctor. \u201cTwo Time Lords can\u2019t put their heads together to fix this. We\u2019d need the whole of Gallifrey at its height and Gallifrey isn\u2019t there yet!\u201d The Doctor\u2019s eyes went wide. \u201c\u2026But that\u2019s not the only time sensitive alien in the Omnitrix! He has Chronosapien DNA in that thing! And their temporal manipulation skills are on par with Gallifrey at its height! \u2026But how to get a rampaging monster to stop or get another rampaging monster to not kill its rival? \u2026Unless there\u2019s a sufficiently titanic form in the Omnitrix. \u2026I\u2019ll need to speak with Ben on this one. Good thinking, Amy!\u201d The Doctor headed off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c\u2026Don\u2019t ask me why,\u201d said Lurra Rus, \u201cbut seeing the Doctor come up with a plan way ahead of time somehow tickles my brain just right.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt does the same for me,\u201d replied Amy. The two subconsciously held one another\u2019s hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>The Doctor found Ben waiting outside a room with Julie. \u201c\u2026How\u2019s Dr. Sato?\u201d she asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cShe\u2019s\u2026well, SpaceGodzilla gave her PTSD, let\u2019s put it that way,\u201d said Julie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThen we need to get SpaceGodzilla back to his own time so she won\u2019t see him again,\u201d replied the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHow do we do that?\u201d asked Ben.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith the help of your Chronosapien form,\u201d answered the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cClockwork?\u201d Ben then grinned. \u201cOf course! He can track precisely when SpaceGodzilla came here and put him back in that exact time!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cExactly!\u201d confirmed the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThen maybe Ben should be a little more careful with the Omnitrix during the inevitable fight,\u201d chuckled Julie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSpeaking of which, Ben, can you turn into something about 30 stories high?\u201d asked the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWell, I DO have an alien called Way Big on this thing,\u201d replied Ben.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat kind of alien is Way Big?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c\u2026I sometimes have trouble with that.\u201d Ben held the Omnitrix up to his mouth. \u201cOmnitrix, remind me what race the transformation I call Way Big is called.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTransformation with the alias of Way Big,\u201d replied a computerized version of Ben\u2019s voice, \u201cis the DNA sample of the To&#8217;kustar race.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTo&#8217;kustar?\u201d asked the Doctor. \u201cThat might actually be enough to stop SpaceGodzilla. I mean, it won\u2019t kill him, but we need to send him back alive so he can face his proper death at the hands of Godzilla in that time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not naturally a killer anyways,\u201d said Ben.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnd that\u2019s good,\u201d replied the Doctor, \u201cbut Godzilla is.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYou think present-day Godzilla\u2019s gonna be attracted by the fight?\u201d asked Julie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m more surprised he\u2019s not here al-.\u201d The alarms then blared, interrupting the Doctor\u2019s reply. \u201c\u2026I really hope he\u2019s not-!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAlert! Alert!\u201d called a soldier. \u201cGodzilla has been sighted cruising to San Francisco Bay! Repeat, Godzilla has been sighted cruising to San Francisco Bay!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cRassilon\u2019s bra!\u201d grumbled the Doctor as she rubbed her eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Over in his secret base, Dr. Animo\u2019s alarms blared. He groaned as he got out of bed. \u201cAll I ask, once in a while, is a few paltry hours of uninterrupted sleep,\u201d he grumbled. He checked his computer and saw the readings. \u201cSo soon?!\u201d He smacked his face. \u201cPerhaps I should have gotten him under control as well.\u201d The tips of the antennae on Dr. Animo\u2019s brain dome then glowed red. \u201cSpaceGodzilla, your master commands you! Godzilla is coming! DESTROY HIM!\u201d He then felt a pressure in his head, not enough to hurt him. Still, all readings said that SpaceGodzilla was on an intercept course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Deep in the Pacific Ocean, a creature cruised through the water like a crocodile. It felt a presence it once felt when it was little. It was powerless back then, but not anymore. It was ready to take that presence on! It will not rest until its enemy was dead! Sharks swam out of the way as the creature swam through the water, its massive lizard head fixed with a look of purpose. Godzilla was ready to kill the space knock-off of his dad!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>The Doctor was working on a machine that kept a crystal contained. \u201cAll right,\u201d she said, \u201chopefully I can determine when in 1995 SpaceGodzilla was taken by the Grouping with this thing should Clockwork fail somehow.\u201d She then pulled out a communicator. \u201cBen, this is the Doctor. Where are you right now?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnimo\u2019s reappeared on the east side of the base,\u201d replied Ben. \u201cWe\u2019re all watching him now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cKeep me posted,\u201d directed the Doctor. \u201cAmy, Lurra Rus, how\u2019s Dr. Sato?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAmy\u2019s heading off to help with Ben,\u201d replied Lurra Rus. \u201cJulie\u2019s with me right now. We managed to piece together why Dr. Sato is so scared of SpaceGodzilla. 30 years ago, when SpaceGodzilla first attacked-.\u201d The earth shook and the Doctor saw a shadow fall over the entire island. She looked to the west\u2026and saw him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c\u2026Very laudable, Lurra Rus,\u201d said the Doctor, \u201cbut I\u2019m afraid that may prove academic!
