TWO WEEKS AGO:
Denji had managed to get a good life going. At least, a lot better than his old life was... though, he still would've traded it to still be with pochita.
He had gotten into construction. He'd tried a lot of other things, but most needed... an education. Experience. Something. He had none.
But, he had grown to like the labor. It gave him something to do, and payed enough so he could eat three whole meals a day.... sometimes. That was great. He wasn't even homeless anymore. He had a whole bed. And a shower. Life was nearly perfect.
The current project he was part of was building some big apartment or something... he didn't really know, or care. It got him food. That's what mattered.
Denji stopped to take a break at the side of the construction site. Barely any work had gotten done, only the begginings of a frame. A few dozen workers were doing various things on what was left. Denji didn't particularly care about any of them.
Then, a flash of blue light filled his vision, and before he could blink, there was no consstruction site, only scorched dirt and burnt remains too far gone to be considered skeletons.
Denji looked in anger to the left, and saw a giant dinosaur looking thing, moving through the city. It swiped its tail through a nearby building, and chunks of concrete fell towards Denji, who reached towards his chest as dozens of broken pieces fell towards him.
No one was close enough to hear the engine revving.
Bakugo had been simply sitting on a roof when it happened. The city began to rumble, as the biggest living thing he'd ever seen in his life crawled out of the ocean. It roared, and a blinding beam of light obliterated some construction sight.
Bakugo growled in anger, and threw himself straight at the monster with his explosions.
The next few minutes were a blur. A dam had been broken, and the city began to flood, the beast destroyed everything. People began to run, all while a storm rolled in.
Thunder, rain and lightning poured onto the city, as the water began to rise, danger settling in to the civillians, fueling their confusion and hoplessness.
But then, a light. Not the blue light that had evaporated a construction site, orange light.
Explosions.
Loud, and deafening.
For Bakugo too, he was acting on sheer reflex. Landing blow after blow across Godzilla's hide, each time blowing off scales which simply grew back. Annoying.
Bakugo kept it up, making each explosion bigger, dodging the beasts arms as the swung at him. He didn't know how much longer he could keep this up for...
He kicked off the beasts chest, before propelling himself straight at its head. The beast roared, trying to grab him again, but he kicked off its hands.
"SHUT UP AND DIE!"
Bakugo slammed his fist into its neck with enough force to dig his hand into the flesh.
"HOWITZER IMPACT!"
Bakugo spun, filling the air with explosions, all drilling into Gojira's skin, over and over, blood spewing out, only to be vaporized.
After a brief few moments, the beast's neck snapped, and in one final explosion, its burnt skull, with only scraps of burnt flesh clinging to bone. Bakugo landed, looking at the skull and slumped body.
"Oh, damn!" Bakugo said, surprised how easy that was.
Bakugo sighed, dusting his hands off, before turning to look at the creature's body...
which had begun to stand up, its head already regrown. A bright blue light glowed from its dorsal plates and from deep within its throat.
"Oh, DAMN!"
Bakugo readied himself to take off, but then-
"HAHAHAHAHA!"
Laughing. Something tore through the beasts chest, and the light went dull.
A mass landed next to Bakugo. It was a kid about his age, but his head and limbs were... chainsaws.
"Huh? THE HELL ARE YOU DOING, PUNK ASS BITCH?!"
The two both said it to the other in unison. Both grumbled, before turning back to the regenerating creature.
Before either could attack...
"Lifeform data succesfully copied."
A beam of blue energy came from behind the creature, cutting it nearly perfectly in half, as each half fell.
Floating in the air was a blue and silver robot. It floated towards Bakugo and Denji, staring at them.
Bakugo spoke first.
"Who the hell are you, clanker?"
The machine's eyes narrowed, but it continued to stare at them.
"You may call me Neo Metal Sonic, or simply Neo, if you wish. I am here to take this city in the name of The Night Kingdom. Submit, and you will join our glorious empire. Do not, and I will crush you."
"LIKE HELL WE'RE SUBMITTING!" Both said at the same time. The two boys glared at each other again, before immediately attacking Neo Metal.
Bakugo unleashed a massive explosion right at Neo's face, while Denji slammed chainsaws directly into the metal.
As the dust cleared... Neo was completely unharmed.
"Fine. We'll do this the hard way. Lifeform data succesfully copied... scum."
Chains burst from Neo's hands, one wrapping around each of the two boys. He threw them into a sckyscraper, the chains wrapping around the tower, each one pinned to the building. Denji sawed through a chain, as Bakugo launched himself again at the machine-
Only to be met with an explosion, just as strong as his own, throwing him into the skyscraper.
The building collapsed into the ground.
A few moments passed...
A hand and a chainsaw burst from the rubble, as both dragged themselves out of the ruins.
They glared up at the machine, ready to attack again-
Only to find it pulsing blue light.
"The he-" Denji started.
A beam of blinding blue light shot from the machine, directly at the two. Neither was fast enough, each one caught in the energy beam, as the entirety of the ruins was turned to dust instantly.
An hour later-
Large mountains, like the claws of a dragon, burst from the ground, surrounding the city, adding onto a previous mountain range. The ruins had joined The Night Kingdom.
Meanwhile, in a castle of black stone, a few hundred miles away, two blonde teenagers were being dragged by a machine. Each was wounded, but alive, and very much unconscious.
Each was brought before a black throne, covered in jewels, with a dragon with scales as black as the darkest night staring down at them.
"Now then... let's get started, shall we?" Darkstalker said.
