Chapter 31 - mother

Garfield: "Father…I don't…think I'll fit in with the other kids…I'm a monster…"

??: "Garfield…you're not a monster. Your power is a blessing…from the gods above us…you're 6 so seeing monsters isn't unlikely"

Garfield: "You don't understand it…you don't see them the same way I do…"

A kaiju emerges from the darkness of the room and stands behind Garfield with glowing red eyes. The Kaiju towers over Garfield's small frame staring at his father

??: "What….what is that beast…Garfield answer me…ANSWER ME!"

Garfield: "I loved mother…you knew that…you deserve nothing but death….Father."

The kaiju roars before lunging at Garfield's father bitting into his shoulder and dragging him into the darkness….Garfield sits on the ground as blood pours down his face as the Kaiju feast on his fathers corpses…he closes his eyes…he opens them and he's standing in the cemetery staring at Flora

Flora: "You're pain…is delicious…I see who all who've died. And I can mark those destined for death…Garfield…my mark of death has been born planted in your soul…"

Garfield: "Okay…I'll stop holding back."

Garfield slams fist into his palm and his body begins to transform. His hair growing longer and patches of fur sprouting around his body. Flora stares with a blank smile as she swings her scythe . A kaiju with red beady eyes lands behind Garfield drooling from the mouth

Garfield: "Let's go…mother."

The Kaiju roars before exploding into a black streak of light and swipes at Flora throwing her back. Floras head flys off and slams into a tall grave

Flroa: "What power! What hatred!"

She stands up and puts her head back on her shoulders. Garfield burst from the grave under her catching her off guard. He slams his fist through her stomach sending her organs flying throughout the cemetery. The kaiju flys over and knees flora in the face launching her into the air. Garfield explodes into the air grabbing her by the face and slamming her into the ground in a ball of fire

Flora: "What…what power…"

Flora slowly stands up holding her scythe grinning largely. Garfield stares at her with a cloudly blank expression. Flora lunges forward swinging the scythe with extreme force. Garfield dodges and kicks her away

Garfield: "I understand what that old lady meant…Mother…it's time for act 2."

The Kaiju roars before it slowly begins to transform…Flora stares at the transformation with wide eyes. The Kaiju turns into a woman with long orange hair dressed in all black drapes and holding a sword 2x her size

Garfield: "Are you ready mother."

Kaiju: "Yes my son…anything for you…"

The Kaiju and Garfield both vanish. Flora looks around frantically before they appear slashing her into pieces. She screams in pain as she's cut at impossible speeds. Flora throws up her hand and zombies burst from the ground grabbing Garfield but he releases a burning scream of rage causing the zombies to explode from the sound

Flora: "YOU WILL NOT DEFEAT ME GARFIELD!!!!"

The Kaiju lunges forward clashing with Floras scythe. Flroa screams in rage as the Kaiju starts to over power her and slashes her in the chest multiple times. Garfield closes his eyes…he opens them and he's sitting in a foster home.

??: "You're a freak. All you do is stare into space and talk to animals. No one will ever want to adopt you…"

The home keeper kicks Garfield in the face sending his small body tumbling into a wall. Garfield doesn't respond…he stare down at his hands…blood begins pouring down his face as he stands in the middle of the foster home surrounded by bodies…the Kaijus eyes shining through the darkness…

Garfield: "Mother…"

Garfield closes his eyes…he opens them and he's staring at the kaiju swinging its large sword back and forth cutting deeper and deeper into Floras body. Flora screams louder and louder as the Kaiju continues to hack and cut through her body. Garfield jumps forward kicking floras jaw off surprising her

Floras eyes widen in anger as she raises her scythe releasing a pulsing wave of green energy. The energy blast the Kaiju and Garfield back. Zombies begin crawling through every grave…the white hair of the Mahrogus shining through the darkness of the cemetery

Flora: "I am the grim reaper! I am death itself…you will not defeat me with such pathetic attacks!"

Garfield stares blankly at her…he raises his hand and sighs

Garfield: "Mother…act 3."

Kaiju: "Yes my son…"

The Kaiju begins transforming again…this time into a woman with short orange hair floating behind Garfield in a white glowing light. Floras eyes widen at the sudden transformation…Garfields eyes cloud even more and his hair begins to turn from orange to grey

Flora: "You're…you're using the life transfer technique…that's a Mahrogu secret technique…you're really willing to go to those lengths to defeat me?!"

Garfield stars at her unblinkingly…Flora stares at him confused before it clicks in her head…

Flora: "You've already lost your hearing…you're almost a walking corpse…so now you're no different from me…"

Flora lunges forward swinging her scythe dead into Garfield's face…in an instant he vanishes. Floras eyes widen as she looks around to find him…he stands behind her staring blankly at her…she lunges again and he vanishes yet again. Flora lunges one more time this time her attack lands in Garfield's throat…her eyes widen as her a throat starts gushing blood and she stumbles back I confusion

Flora: "What is this…"

Kaiju: "Any attacks or damage taken to Garfield will be transferred to the closest person…and if you're the one who inflicts that damage…you will feel it 10 times worse…"

Garfield lunges forward cutting through Flora with his claws. Flora returns attacks but the damage only inflicts herself. Flora orders a horde of zombies to subdue Garfield but the Kaiju releases a large beam of light from her hands that instantly vaporizes the entire horde. Garfield grabs Floras head and rips it off her shoulders…she slams into the ground. Garfield throws her head and it rolls in the mud

Flora: "I'm not going…TO DIE THIS WAY!!!"

Flora jumps up grabbing her head and lunging at Garfield…he closes his eyes…he opens them and he's standing in an alley staring at Connie.

Connie: "I am Police Chief Connie Warri…you don't have a good track record. You killed your own father…how cruel."

Garfield: "You don't know me…you don't know my pain."

Connie: "Pain is irrelevant in this world…you're strong…so join my team and use your power for good."

The Kaiju appears behind Garfield it's red eyes shining through the darkness. Connie stares at the Kaiju unfazed

Connie: "I see how it is…"

The Kaiju lunges forward and Connie's fist begins to shine with fire…in an instant the Kaiju lays on the ground bleeding from its chest. Garfield lays on the ground covered in blood holding burn marks on his face….

Connie: "I will take that look as a look of compliance."

Garfield stares at Connie with a look of rage…he closes his eyes…he opens them and he's staring at Flora. Flora is staring down at him as Garfield holds her up by the throat. Flora holds his wrist trying to lossen his grip…

Garfield: "You lost…"

Garfield raises his finger and the Kaiju creates an orb of energy in her hands…in a desperate attempt at freeing herself she raises her hands calling for more zombies…Garfield doesn't flinch…the orb blast out of the Kaijus hands in a large blast of light hitting Flora dead in the face…her eyes widen as the beam his her face

Flora: "I WILL NOT DIE THIS WAYY!! I WILL NOT DI-"

Floras head is vaporized…Garfield drops her body and all the zombies crumble into dust…Garfield stares at the sky blankly…he slowly falls back into the ground…the Kaiju rest his head in her lap and she rubs his head soothingly

Kaiju: "Shhh…shhh…sleep now my son…you did a great job…"

Garfield's vision begins to fade…the Kaiju begins fading away…the voice of Garfield's mother vanishing into the wind…Garfield vision slowly fades and he lays lifeless on the ground of the cemetery.
