expect random fandom stuffs and posts about my mid OCs (I'm not really creative ) or posts about random hobbies i picked up
most of the posts here are currently related to super giant robot brothers, because i got hyper fixated on it for a couple of months when i made this account :T
If you see an anonymous ask and think its me, dont say it, I made it anonymous for a reason (probably fearful introversion) and I will panic if you were right

have a good one! ascends to the moon while hitting the gritty
Wait a minute, aren’t you supposed to be the second robot?
… No. I am supposedly not. It would appear it is not a new sibling in the way you thought. But rather… a lost sibling.
Lost sibling? I have two little brothers!?
There were two Rose Robots before me?
My friends, I present a drawn comic/scene from my fic “The Real Second Rose Type Guardian Class Robot”
I’m not a big fan of the shading, but it’s the best I got for now. Everything else I’m proud of. I added lil lines to Zephyr’s mouth for a more “robotic” look.
All in all, I like this drawing, and I might draw more scenes
Description: Thunder and Shiny had made it through the other side of the new O.R.T and arrived at the jungle planet, Kimetchu. If the strange plantlife didn't unsettle the brothers, seeing broken parts of their missing brother definitely did. Faced with a short path, they try to find clues of where Zephyr could be. Thankfully they run into the locals that offer help… and keep mistaking the two as shape-shifting duplicates of the Metallic Plant Monster.
Notes: SURPRISE REUNION UPDATE! I know it's definitely been a bit since I last updated on this. But here it is! Again, I have attempted to foreshadow that Zephyr is the Metallic Plant Monster (dramatic irony uwu), and I still don't know how well of a job I did. I hope you all still enjoy tho. In the meantime: Enjoy Thunder and Shiny bickering like brothers and talking to the locals
It was very strange to travel through the O.R.T. for Thunder. His programs felt as if they were scattered about and trying to reorganize themselves. He stumbled a bit and tried to regulate his systems. This was not a travel experience he was used to. If he were human, he most likely would describe this as a simulation of "nausea". Shiny, on the other hand, didn’t have it as bad. He only shook his head and was fine right after. Maybe because he technically went through the O.R.T. twice before. “You okay, Thunder?” Shiny asked.
“I am merely readjusting myself.” Thunder said before he stopped wobbling. “It would appear we have arrived.”
Shiny and Thunder looked at their surroundings. They ended up in a jungle-like forest. There were trees, flowers, and bushes that resemble the plantlife on Earth. But they look nothing like the plants the brothers are used to. There wasn’t an ounce of green. Everything was multiple shades of blue, purple, and pink. A few of them were even glowing.
“Wow.” Shiny chuckled nervously. “Talk about a jungle planet. I’m surprised we’re on the ground instead of falling from the sky. You think Zephyr had this luck?”
“I cannot say for certain, but I do think he has been here before.” Thunder said, pointing at a metal chunk by a flower bed.
The two went closer to the bed, stepping carefully as they did. When they got close enough, they were able to get a good look at the metal chunk. It was an extremely rusted green armor plating. One that looked like it could’ve been part of an arm.
Thunder and Shiny looked at each other. They turned back to see if there was anything else. They saw more rusted metal parts spread out around them. Then they spotted a tiny path of metal parts and broken wires. Some of the wires looked like they were either pulled off or cut off. The two followed the path, leading them to a cliffside.
The view revealed an endless ocean of jungle trees and a dark cyan sky. A few kaijus were flying through, each looking like various bugs. One that looked like a mutant dragonfly flew towards and over the brothers.
“Woah.” Shiny gasped. “Really talk about a jungle planet. I don’t think I can see any water. Just… a bunch of trees.”
“A very obvious statement.” Thunder commented.
The two heard a roar in the distance. A small group of trees shook in their view. Then a few giant plant spikes came out puncturing what looked like space tanks. A bright purple light came out shortly after.
“... Is that concerning?” Shiny asked.
“Only if we run into whatever is happening over there.” Thunder said, beginning to move. “Hopefully we won’t have to.”
“Hey, where are you going?”
“Our only trace of Zephyr’s whereabouts are five-year-old broken metal parts and five-year-old torn wires. The path ends here, so we can only estimate where to go next. If we get to the bottom of this cliff, we could find more clues to his whereabouts.”
Shiny followed Thunder, treading through carefully. The two looked at their surroundings to try and find clues. So far, there was no luck. Only the strange plantlife surrounding them. Sometimes they would see kaijus roaming through. They remain hidden but alert, being advised by the EDF to not use their weaponry unless absolutely necessary.
“Thunder?” Shiny spoke. “Do you think Zephyr is okay?”
“I cannot say for certain. “Thunder admitted. “It is alarming to see part of his platings and wires out in the open in such a state. It appears we have forgotten to consider how Zephyr would still be active these past five years.”
“What do you mean?”
“He was heavily damaged in his last fight before his disappearance. He would not have an opportunity to receive repairs or recharge. Unless he was able to find a replacement fuel or materials to repair him, I’m not sure how he would survive five years on a jungle planet.”
“Maybe the Metallic Plant Monster helped him.”
“The Metallic Plant Monster?”
“Well they’re part metal, and Zephyr is full robot. And I did say that the voice and Metallic Plant Monster could be the same person.”
“And this is based on what data again?”
“Well, they and Zephyr both crash landed on this planet. Maybe after the Metallic Plant Monster found the Kaiju Bloodgem, they ran into him.”
“I fail to see how that proves your theory that the voice and the Metallic Plant Monster are one in the same. I can understand that perspective from the possibility Zephyr received help from them, but that quite literally has nothing to do with the voice and the Metallic Plant Monster being the same entities.”
“Of course it does! If the voice and Metallic Plant Monster are the same person, then they would both know Zephyr! And if they both know Zephyr, then they’re both the same person.”
“I can think of a few ways to suggest why you would be incorrect.”
“Well I think—”
That’s when they heard something. Thunder pulled out his sword. Shiny prepared his hands to shoot. The two began walking slowly towards the noise.
“Do you think that’s them?” Shiny whispered.
“Unclear.” Thunder whispered back. “While I am detecting life signatures, I am not detecting any Rose Type Guardian Class Robot energy signatures. I am unable to identify what these life signatures could be—”
“Metallic Plant Monster!” A voice shouted.
Thunder and Shiny aimed their weapons to where the shout came from. A decision regretted immediately because they were aiming at three plant-like alien children.
“Sorry!” Shiny apologized, disabling his hand ammo and moving Thunder’s hand down. “Sorry about that. You guys startled us. What are you three little… plant guys doing out here?”
“We advised you to return to your homes immediately.” Thunder advised. “There is a battle happening a few miles away from this location. It is most likely a battle between kaijus, and it is not something to get in the middle of.”
The plant children stared in confusion, a little scared.
“You didn’t tell us it can duplicate and change forms.” the middle one hissed at the taller one.
“Like I knew that?” The tall one glared. “How am I supposed to know how giant metal beings work?”
“Wait, have you seen another metal being here?” Shiny asked. “Like us?”
The shortest one grabbed something out of their bag and wobbled towards the robots. The other plant children tried to tell the little one to come back. But they didn’t listen, offering two seeds to the robots instead.
“Oh!” Shiny said, taking the two seeds. “Is this for us? Thank you, little guy.”
“We're sorry if we disturb you, Mister Metallic Plant Monsters.” The little one apologized. “We just wanna play.”
“Huh?”
“The gifts are appreciated, but we must tell you we are not the Metallic Plant Monster.” Thunder explained. “We are from another planet called ‘Earth’, and we are Rose Type Guardian Class Robots.”
The little one tried to say Rose Type Guardian Class Robots, but it sounded like a bunch of babbles.
“You can call us Rose Robots.” Thunder said. “My name is Thunder, and his name is Shiny.”
“Rose Robots!” the little one giggled. “You’re plants like me! And my sisters and my parents and the neighbors and the Metallic Plant Monster. Is he a Rose Robot too?”
“We are not plants in the way you are and your family are. We are completely made of metal. The Rose part is the family name of our creator.”
“Ooooh. My family name is Apriberry, and—and, my name is Pespear. I’m Pespear Apriberry.”
“That is a very lovely name.”
“Thank you! This is my older sister, Chocotea Apriberry. And that is my older older sister, Menstio Apriberry. We are Juni-pea-tios.”
“Uh, what do you both want exactly?” Menstio asked, pulling Pespear closer. “If you aren’t the Metallic Plant Monster, then why are you here?”
“Hey!” Pespear pouted.
“I can assure you we do not mean harm.” Thunder reassured. “We are looking for—”
“We’re actually looking for the Metallic Plant Monster!” Shiny interrupted.
“Shiny, we are looking for Zephyr.”
“Yeah, but maybe the Metallic Plant Monster knows where Zephyr is.”
“Who is Zephyr?” Chocotea asked.
“Zephyr is our brother.” Shiny explained. “He came here about… five of our Earth years ago, and we’re trying to find him.”
“Why did he come here?” Pespear asked.
“Well it was mostly an accident. A big portal opened on our planet and a lot of scary monsters came out. Zephyr was trying to defeat the monsters and close the portal, but he could only do that by shutting it off on the other side.”
“Like the empire portal?” Pespear pointed at an O.R.T. in the sky. “We have one here, but they don’t attack us a lot. They’ve been trying to kidnap our Kaijus and the Metallic Plant Monster. They said they’ll leave once they get him.”
“Girls?” A voice called out. “Who are you— What in Great Mother’s Bed Below?”
An adult plant alien came out and was shocked to see the two robots. He immediately ran towards the kids and moved them behind him.
“What happened, Metallic Plant Monster? Uh, where are your vines? And how did you duplicate yourself?”
“Dabi, they’re Rose Robots!” Pespear beamed.
“Rose Robots?”
“Yeah! They came from another planet. They aren't the Metallic Plant Monster or plant people. They’re looking for the Metallic Plant Monster and their brother.”
“What do you two want with the Metallic Plant Monster?”
“Are you the parental guardian of these three children?” Thunder asked.
The plant alien pulled out a sword: “They are my daughters, what’s it to you?”
“I assure you that we do not mean harm towards you, your daughters, or the Metallic Plant Monster. My call sign is Thunder, and his call sign is Shiny. We are from the planet Earth, sent by the Extreme Defense Force to retrieve the second Rose Robot: Zephyr. We have no intent to cause trouble to your home nor seek confrontation with the Metallic Plant Monster.”
“Buuuuut, they might know where Zephyr is!” Shiny cut in. “See, our brother Zephyr disappeared five of our Earth years ago and ended up here. But then an O.R.T.—”
“Empire portal.” Thunder corrected.
“Empire portal?”
“Pespear referred to the O.R.T. as the ‘empire portal’. While I assume both terms mean the same, they will not understand us referring to the portal opened by the Kalaxian Empire as the O.R.T..”
“Your planet was invaded by the Kalaxian Empire?” The father asked.
“Affirmative. We were recently successful in closing the one created by the Kalaxian Empire. However, the one that we came through was not opened by them. While it is unknown who, the entity that did appears to know our… brother and opened it for him to leave. We came through to find him and aid in his return home before the empire portal closes. We only have… seventeen hours to find him.”
“Wait, seventeen!?” Shiny exclaimed. “But we’ve only been here for like… thirty minutes!”
“Perhaps the time here is faster than the time on Earth. A suboptimal situation.”
The father lowered his sword completely before speaking, “You both swear you have no ties to the Kalaxian Empire?”
“Other than closing the empire portal they opened on our planet: affirmative.” Thunder said.
“... How does time travel on your planet?”
“Our planet orbits our sun. Each day is twenty four hours.”
“You have a sun orbit planet. I’m afraid you both are on a moon orbit planet.”
“A moon orbit planet?” Thunder and Shiny both said confused.
“Our Mother Moon, Selartico, is what Kimetchu and neighboring planets orbit. And our moon orbits the sun instead. Thus making our time inconsistent with sun orbiting planets. How long a day is depends on the season we are in. If you only have seventeen sun orbit hours to leave—” the father pointed towards the sky, “—then you have until sundown.”
“Oh man, that adds a little pressure to our rescue mission.” Shiny whistles.
“The Kalaxian Empire is not the only one who can create those portals. The kaijus were the ones who created the technique.”
“The kaijus made the O.R.T— uh, the portals first? But they seem so… aggressive and… uh.”
“Our only interactions with kaijus are them being sent to our planet to destroy our villages and cities.” Thunder told the father. “We were created specifically to fight and destroy them to keep the citizens safe.”
“Then perhaps you have only interacted with the kaijus tampered by the Kalaxian Empire. They have been kidnapping kaijus across the universe for their twisted cause. I cannot say for certain what they do, but they have tortured and experimented on the kaijus to create weapons. We coexist with the kaijus here, and they are only hostile if they are given reason to. Your brother could be with them… but I’m not sure how possible that is. The only other metal being that has been here is the Metallic Plant Monster. There has been no other besides you two that we’ve seen.”
“Where’s the Metallic Plant Monster now?”
“I cannot say for certain. He tends to move around a lot and often avoids our villages. Ever since the empire along with other third parties have tried to capture him, he steers away from us to keep us from harm. We only see him now if we are far enough from our homes. Or if an untrusted outsider gets too close to us. The only place I know he could be is the temple that once held the Kaiju Bloodgem.”
“Oh, where is that?”
“It is only a few milistones ahead. Do you promise to not harm him and leave once you find your brother?”
“Affirmative.” Thunder promised. “Our presence will not be too long. Thank you for your assistance.”
“Please don’t make me regret telling you both this. If you’ll excuse us, we must go home now. Come, girls.”
Thunder motioned Shiny to follow where the father pointed.
“Bye Thunder! Bye Shiny!” Pespear waved.
Thunder and Shiny both said their goodbyes to the young plant alien.
“Wow, you were really good back there.” Shiny complimented. “I didn’t know you had that in you.”
“That I could explain our situation and purpose in a clear and understandable manner?” Thunder questioned. “Last I recall, that is an issue you have had and were having.”
“Not that. Also I’m really good at being clear.”
“Oh. Sure you are.”
“I don’t appreciate your tone, young bot”
“Young bot?”
“Well, you know, cause I’m older than you.”
“How many asinine nicknames will you create for me?”
“As many as I can. Also, I was actually talking about the way you handled talking to the little plant girl. You’re surprisingly good with kids.”
“Oh. That. Well, she is what is assumed to be a toddler. Her vocabulary is not as advanced as mine, and she would not know Earth vocabulary as well. Attempting to speak like I usually do would only confuse her. In addition, her older sisters seemed terrified, so it was logical to speak and appear as nonthreatening as possible.”
“Where did this come from?”
“It was during my early days of activation. The EDF thought it would be wise if I knew how to calm and help children. It would be in case I find a lost child during or after a kaiju battle. It is not a skill I use often. Though… Now my CPU is trying to process what the alien father has informed us regarding the kaijus.”
“Hey, don’t shift this conversation around. What do you mean you were taught how to talk to kids?”
“Shiny, I do not think that is of utmost concern at the moment.”
“Fine, but we are gonna come back to this. What about the kaijus don’t you get?”
“The alien father made it seem like the kaijus hold some form of sapience. With the information that they have an ancient artifact and were the ones who originally created the O.R.T., it has made me realize that we never consider they were sapient or sentient.”
“That does seem kinda weird. You know, you’ve been asking a lot of questions lately.”
“Is that an issue?”
“Well you usually know everything. And when you start asking a bunch of questions, I start asking even more questions. Like, I never thought about how Zephyr could’ve been alive or how he stayed alive or if the kaijus were sapient until you started to think about it. A little concerning you don’t know, ya know?”
“... Shiny we are on unfamiliar territory with only the knowledge we have gathered on Earth. Why would I know anything regarding the kaijus sapience and Zephyr’s ability to remain active?”
“I don’t know, you’re smart! You have like… all the newest science junkie stuff.”
“I request you cease your commentary.”
“I—”
“Cease. Your commentary.”
Shiny rolled his eyes. The two continued once again on their rescue mission. The tread with caution started to become boring to Shiny. So far, not much has happened. No plant life has tried to eat them, no kaiju has tried to fight them, and there hasn’t been any sign of the Kalaxian Empire yet. Knowing they were here should make the red robot still act vigilantly, but he was starting to lax off due to nothing happening.
Thunder on the other hand still remained alert and careful. He was also growing tired of their caution, but it was for good reason. Even though nothing has happened yet, it does not mean that it will remain that way. It’s best to be vigilant as to still gain an equal ground or an advantage towards an enemy.
“... Hey Thunder?” Shiny broke the silence.
Thunder let out a sigh, “Yes, Shiny?”
“We’re going in the right direction, right?”
“Affirmative.”
“How long do we have until the O.R.T. close?”
“... sixteen hours and eighteen minutes.”
“Seriously? Aw man, we’re never gonna find Zephyr at this rate. We need to pick up the pace.”
The two heard small gasps. The brothers turned their heads to see a group of more plant aliens.
“Metallic Plant Monster?” a pink alien said. “Er, monsters?”
“How’d you split yourself up?” Another spoke up, this one a turquoise color. “And why is one of you blue and the other one pink?”
“I’m not pink, I’m red.” Shiny corrected in a confused tone.
“What’s red?”
“I think it’s pink but harsher.” A maroon one said.
“We must inform you that we are not the Metallic Plant Monster.” Thunder told the group. “We are Rose Type Guardian Class Robots sent from Earth by the Extreme Defense Force to retrieve our missing Rose Robot: Zephyr. He was sent here a long time ago to save our planet from aggressive kaijus and plant life.”
The group let out an oh.
“That does explain some things now.” the pink one nodded. “Though, I’m not sure about there being a ‘Rose Robot’ here. At least maybe the Metallic Plant Monster. Are you two and the other Rose Robot related to him?”
“That is a negative.”
“Really? Are you sure? Because you guys look—” the pink alien stopped then turned to the others, “—You guys are seeing this too, right?”
“Yeah, I’m seeing it.” A purple alien said. “Well, the colors are an obvious off, but the shapes. That’s where it’s mostly seen.”
“What’s mostly seen?” Shiny asked. “What about us makes you guys think we’re the Metallic Plant Monster?”
“Shiny, we do not have time for such questions.” Thunder told his brother. “We only have until sundown to find Zephyr and leave.”
“It’s not that hard to explain.” A magenta alien said. “Well, sort of. You’re a little more round than the Metallic Plant Monster. And you’re a little more sharper than the Metallic Plant Monster.”
“You kinda have the same mouth as him, too.” The maroon alien pointed at Shiny. “He doesn’t have cheeks though.”
“Oh, oh!” the turquoise alien joined in, pointing at Thunder. “You have the Metallic Plant Monster’s eyes! Except yours are just circles and blue. He has glowing green eyes that are sharp. When he gets super angry though, his eyes get a weird empty slit. And then he blasts cool kaiju powers out of his mouth!”
A loud horn could be heard from a distance. The group looked to the sky then back at the robots.
“Sorry, we gotta now.” The pink one told the robots. “Good luck on your search!”
And so the group quickly ran off. Thunder and Shiny looked at the direction they ran in.
“That seemed like a chiller talk than our talk with that Dad and his daughters.” Shiny pointed out.
“Perhaps they are also one of the youth of this planet.” Thunder suggested. “That, or they do not hold the same urgency as the father does. Let us continue.”
The two robots continued. They came across more plant aliens that mistook the two for shape shifting duplicates of the Metallic Plant Monster. Some of them were confused when Thunder clarified the robots were not the Metallic Plant Monster. They gathered more information little by little about the monster everyone mistook them for. Regarding Zephyr though, no one knew who that was. Everyone kept telling the brothers there has only been one mechanoid on the planet. None stayed for long to speak further, as they all seemed to be rushing back to their homes. The children, on the other hand, kept giving the two robots seeds.
“Do we really look that much like the Metallic Plant Monster guy?” Shiny questioned, before the craziest thought came to his head. “Do you think the Metallic Plant Monster took some of the broken parts off of Zephyr, and that's why these guys think we look like the monster?”
“Shiny, I am desperately requesting that you cease your asinine theories regarding the connection between Zephyr and the Metallic Plant Monster.” Thunder begged.
“Well, you aren’t thinking of anything!”
“I am ‘thinking’. I’m just choosing to keep it in my processor instead of constantly babbling every calculation I am considering. Something you have never been familiar with, I’m sure.”
“Ohohoho, now you listen here—”
“Mema Plan Monsa!” A tiny voice shouted.
The two robots looked down to see another duo of the plant aliens. One of them was a toddler being held by the other who looked like the mother.
“Uh, I suppose it is, Seedling.” the alien stuttered. “Is it… really you, Metallic Plant Monster?”
“Negative, we are not the Metallic Plant Monster.” Thunder informed.
“Oh. Then what are you both?”
“We are Rose Type Guardian Class Robots. We came here from the planet Earth and were sent by the Extreme Defense Force to retrieve our missing Rose Robot: Zephyr.”
“You are both guardians?”
“Affirmative.”
“... And you aren’t the Metallic Plant Monster?”
“Affirmative. We are not the Metallic Plant Monster.”
“Well, I’m afraid you might be here for no reason. The closest we have to a guardian ‘robot’ is the Metallic Plant Monster.”
“Robow?” the toddler spoke again, tilting his head.
“Yeah, little guy.” Shiny smiled at the toddler. “We’re giant robots. Just big ol’ metal guys with hunks and junks inside us.”
“Juns.”
“Is that what your species is actually called?” The mother asked. “Robots?”
“Affirmative.” Thunder confirmed. “Though us being classified as a species is a heavy debate due to our lack of organic biology.”
“You’ve never heard of robots before?” Shiny asked.
“Well, we’ve only heard tales from outsiders, but they always refer to robots as insentient creations. You both don’t seem like insentient creations though. You seem… alive.”
“We are quasi-sentient.” Thunder informed.
“The Metallic Plant Monster said the same thing about himself.”
“He did?”
“Yes. He was insistent on it during our kind’s first meeting with him. Oh, the poor creature was so terrified and hurt when we first found him. Well, I suppose brought to him is more accurate. Some of the kaijus had taken a few of us to help him.”
“What happened?” Shiny asked.
“I believe it was a few days after he fused to the Kaiju Bloodgem. Some of the kaijus travelled across different villages gathering parents, me being one of them. They brought us to the Metallic Plant Monster because they thought we could help him. He was sobbing so hard and covering his mouth. He was kneeling over a pile of vines and flowers.”
“Did he throw up?”
“It was more than that. The poor boy was sick and didn’t know what to do. He told us this never happened to him before. We tried to tell him that it’s okay because everyone gets sick, but he said he had never been sick like an organic being before. He kept talking about how it shouldn’t have been possible. We could see the fear in his eyes and hear the pain in his voice. He just… looked so overwhelmed.
“The other parents and I worked together to try to help him feel better. It took a few days, but we were able to nurse him back to health. We also tried to figure out where he came from to see if we could get him to his home. But he only looked heartbroken and guilty whenever we asked. When we asked about his family’s whereabouts, he only told us he didn’t have one anymore. They were gone because he failed.”
“Failed?” Thunder questioned.
“He said he was created solely for the purpose of protecting the innocent from monsters. He was a guardian from where he was from. None of us know what happened before his arrival, and we still don’t know. If you take it from me, I think he’s just a lost soul who’s deep in grief and misses his family dearly.”
“Aww, poor guy.” Shiny said sadly. His face turned guilty before speaking again. “A-Are you sure you didn’t see another robot like us though? Not even once?”
“As far as I and everyone else is aware, there isn’t another robot here.”
Shiny looked down defeated.
“Could a description of Zephyr perhaps prove serviceable to see if he might have been seen by someone?” Thunder offered.
“That could work.” The Mother nodded. “If I still don’t know, I could at least ask the others.”
“Yeah, a description!” Shiny beamed, hope returning to his face. “Okay so: he’s purple with a little bit of a green accent, has green glowing eyes with eyebrow thingies, a red siren thingy on his head, and… oh, he should’ve had a giant hole in his chest when he came here.”
“... That sounds almost like the Metallic Plant Monster.”
“It does? That’s weird— Wait, Thunder! What if the Metallic Plant Monster did take some of Zephyr’s spare parts!”
“Issac Newton, you are still going on about that?” Thunder asked, extremely annoyed.
“There’s a connection, Thunder! Zephyr and the Metallic Plant Monster have to know each other!”
“By Arthur C Clarke. Ma’am, may I query you on how long ago the Metallic Plant Monster arrived on your planet?”
“Huh?” Shiny asked.
“When did the Metallic Plant Monster arrive so I can shut my brother up from his insane theories?” Thunder clarified.
“Hey!”
“He’s been here for ten years as far as we’re aware.” the mother answered.
“Ten years?” Thunder asked.
“Yes. Actually, I think today marks the tenth year since his arrival.”
“... I see.”
“And how much is ten years on this planet in Earth years?” Shiny asked.
Another horn echoed throughout.
“Oh dear.” The mother began to look panicked. “I-I’m sorry, I have to go. The Kalaxian Empire is about to do a sweep for Kaiju hunting, and I have to return to my family. Will you two be alright on your own?”
“Kaiju hunting?” Shiny questioned.
“They’ve been going from planet to planet capturing kaijus to experiment on them. The hunting has been happening more than usual, and the Metallic Plant Monster has been fighting them off.”
“Your concern is appreciated, but I can assure you we will be fine.” Thunder said. “We have had our fair share of dealing with the Kalaxian Empire. If we run into them, we will deal with them promptly.”
“Alright, but please do be careful.” The mother warned. “Good luck finding your brother.”
The mother started running off to join the others as the toddler shouted goodbye.
“... They came here at the same time?” Thunder questioned.
“Huh?” Shiny looked at Thunder.
“Zephyr had been missing for five Earth years. The Metallic Plant Monster has been here for ten of this planet’s years. That voice we heard when the second O.R.T. opened, they mentioned Zephyr had been here for ten years.”
“So… They could know each other?”
Thunder stared at Shiny and walked away, “I give up.”
Shiny, offended, chased after Thunder and tried to ask what he said. The two continued to bicker as they continued their way to the temple. Unbeknownst to them, there was a figure following them. The claw of the figure scratching a nearby tree in hostility.
