A Lover's Quarrel
This is my first Zilla short story. As of yet it is un finished, but here's the first part:
A Lover’s Quarrel:
“Well?” Yuki demanded crossly of Zilla as he lifted the barbell once more.
“Well what?” the behemoth asked, lowering the weight onto his chest again. Zilla was laying on a specially designed bench-press, with five slits in it to accommodate his spines. Yuki herself had designed and built it… Zilla had merely collected the materials and of course, used it.
“I can’t believe you, Zilla.” Yuki said, placing her hand over her eyes. “Weren’t you paying attention?”
“Four thousand two hundred ninety three…” Zilla counted as he lifted the barbell from his barrel of a chest again. He lowered it and raised it again before answering. “Four thousand two hundred ninety four… um, what?”
Yuki pursed her lips in frustration. “I asked when we were going to spar. I can’t afford to lose anymore practice.”
“Four thousand two hundred ninety five… Why should you need practice? I’m strong enough for the both of us. Four thousand two hundred ninety six…”
“Because, Zilla… what happens when you’re not there.” Yuki said, placing her fists on her hips.
“But I’m always there. Four thousand two hundred ninety seven… When have we ever been separated? Four thousand two hundred ninety eight…” Zilla said.
“It’s just a precaution.” Yuki said, her frustration becoming obvious. “Besides, how am I supposed to rule if I can’t prove myself the rightful ruler? You yourself said that kaijuu understand only one form of government, and that’s brute force.”
Kaigaa seemed to appear from nowhere as he leapt from the floor to his master’s chest, below the point where the weights would come down. “I think that this is more of an issue of an inferiority complex. Yuki, you know that Lord Zilla has beaten into every other monster that you are to be his unchallenged queen. That will do the rest of the kingdom well. None of them would dare challenge your authority for fear of invoking your betrothed.”
Zilla lifted the weights again, this time, letting them slam to the floor behind him. The entire cavern shook as the tremendous wait struck the floor. The weights on each side stretched fifteen feet in boot directions and twenty feet into the air. They now rested in a deep, carved out trough, leaving the bar on the pathway between the troughs. The number on each side read: 2000 mgtn. “Is that the deal Yuki? A whatever whose-a-whats-it?”
“An inferiority complex, master.” Kaigaa restated. He leapt to his lord’s ear while Zilla stood and looked down into the troughs, where two artificial black-holes swirled, still tugging exponentially at the weight. With a wave of his arm, the dragon dispelled them. “It means, Lord Zilla, that she feels threatened tat you’ll leave her behind by way of ability.”
“I’d never leave her behind!” Zilla said indignantly.
“I meant a power gap, lord. She’s afraid that she’ll stay the same while you continue to grow in might.” Kaigaa attempted to explain. Zilla looked towards his betrothed. She was blushing furiously and had an enraged glare at Kaigaa.
“Is this true?” Zilla asked deeply. Yuki’s killer gaze at Kaigaa softened, her blush becoming that of embarrassment. Her eyes were downcast to the cavern floor. Yuki felt two, massive, strong, cool, fingers, an index and a thumb cup below her chin and force her head up to look into Zilla’s eyes. “You never have to look away from me… or hide your feelings or thoughts.” Zilla said softly.
Yuki locked eyes with the Monster King for a few moments before tearing her gaze away. Pulling away from his grasp, she stared into nothingness, bitterly. “Yes.” She took a deep breath, soaked in an emotion Zilla couldn’t quite finger, somewhere between anger and sorrow. “It’s true.”
“I see.” Zilla said softly as he turned towards the doorway to his lifting room. “Then in that case, I’ll meet you in the dojo in an hour.” The large shape of Zilla’s body vanished to the left as Yuki’s eyes followed him out the door.
“Are you sure this is wise, Mistress?” Kaigaa asked, leaping to Yuki’s shoulder, where he proceeded to pull from his yukata sleeve, an earthenware jug of tea. “Master Zilla is a fierce trainer, even with those he loves. You may find that raising your own power is not worth the pain you may go through.”
Yuki continues to stare blankly into space. “I trust him completely. I know he’ll only do what’s best for me.”
Kaigaa sighed and took a long draught from his tea before returning to top to the bottle and replacing it within his sleeve. “I see you will not be swayed. I give you this bit of advice. Don’t hold back.”
next part to come.

Falling from the rooftop
Crashing like a raindrop
Can you make my heart stop
Shaking like a leaf
Standing at the floodgate
Steady as an earthquake
Can you hear my heart break
Tearing at the seams

Re: A Lover's Quarrel
Anyway, I think that I should warn all those who found Zilla and Yuki's romantic involvment disturbing.... their will be an emotional, ooshy-gooshy scene at the end of this story.... don't worry, it's completly G-rated.
