Tyrantis vs. MechaTyrantis
Chapter 1: The Resurrection
Introduction:
This story takes place after another story called The Hydra of Dr. Lerna, in which Dr. Lerna's plan for a daikaiju museum in Tyrantis's Revenge were realized. Also, the thoughts of Tyrantis and the other monsters, though put into sentences for the reader's better comprehension, actually appear in mental pictures and feelings since monsters don't speak english and thus can't think in it.
********************************************************************
It had been six months since the Hydra incident, in which four giant snakes that were originally going to be used as anti-daikaiju weapons had escaped. Dr. Lerna had been working on two new weapons when J.C. Clark rushed into his office.
"Drop everything, Lerna!" J.C. exclaimed. "I've got a project that'll solve our problems forever!"
"What?" Dr. Lerna asked.
"Come with me and I'll show you."

Lerna stared in amazement. There, in the most private area of the San Fransisco Daikaiju museum, was the body of the first Tyrantis. It's scales, once a beautiful green, had turned gray blue. Its eyes were dulled, but still filled with a savage intelect. Lerna realized that the Omega Virus G was still at work, for foam flowed from the creature's mouth. The suffering must have been immense. He seemed to have been placed in some sort metal vest, and instead of legs made of flesh, they were metal. Two huge guns were placed over the legs.
"You see, a couple of years ago we hired these guys over here," J.C. said as he pointed to the many scientists working around Tyrantis, "to build some weapons for the army. Since then they made schematics for tanks, airplanes, even giant robots."
"Giant robots?" Dr. Lerna scoffed. The idea was preposterous.
"Yeah. They're kind of child prodigies. So anyway, we asked them to help make an anti-Tyrantis weapon. They asked me, 'what kind of weapon could defeat Tyrantis?' and I said, 'well how about a robot Tyrantis?'" J.C. Clark explained.
"And what does this have to do with me?" Dr. Lerna asked. "Robotics is not my department."
"I'm getting to that! And since a completely metal Tyrantis would be too top heavy, we decided to make a cyborg. They've made a life support machine designed to destroy Omega Virus G, which would allow MechaTyrantis here to live again. Then we just put a get a pilot into the cockpit, and viola! A supreme anti-monster weapon. Don't you see? You don't have to make any more monsters!"
At that moment, the General walked in. "Negative, Mr. Clark. Though we are sure that MechaTyrantis will be more than an effective weapon, we need all the firepower we can get. Rattler, Yellowback, and Sucruliju Gigante are also at large. Those snakes, in addition to the monster army that devastated this fair city, are a threat more than worthy of MechaTyrantis. Dr. Lerna will make need to make more monsters."
"Correction, General." Dr. Lerna cut in. "I have them made. They are sure to be formidable."
"Great! Show us."
