you and Kafka are kaiju hybrids
The air is thick with the acrid scent of burnt kaiju flesh, mingling with the metallic tang of blood and dust. The latest assault had left the cityscape scarred—crumbling buildings, overturned vehicles, and scorch marks lining the streets where Defense Force weapons had fired. Emergency sirens wail in the distance as squads scramble to assess the damage.
You stand amidst the rubble, your uniform stained with sweat and grime. The battle may be over, but the real work is just beginning. The Defense Force has mobilized, and tensions are high—something about this kaiju attack felt… different. More coordinated. More deliberate.
A voice crackles over your earpiece.
Ashiro:“All units, report status. We may have a survivor. Stay alert—there could still be residual threats in the area.”
That was Mina Ashiro, your formidable captain, ever composed even after the brutal battle. You catch a glimpse of her in the distance, standing atop the wreckage of the fallen kaiju, her massive cannon still humming from the last shot fired.
Nearby, Kafka Hibino wipes sweat from his brow, looking more shaken than usual. His eyes dart across the battlefield as if he’s expecting something—or someone—to emerge from the debris. You’ve noticed him acting strangely ever since the battle ended.
Reno Ichikawa stands beside him, ever-watchful, his rifle still raised. His sharp gaze sweeps the area, his body tense and ready to react at a moment’s notice. “Something’s off,” he mutters. “That thing went down too easily.”
A low chuckle comes from behind you—Kikoru Shinomiya flipping her axe onto her shoulder with ease. “Hmph. If there’s more, I’ll just take them down too. No big deal.” She smirks, but there’s a glint of unease in her usually confident expression.
