Godzilla and Yetrigar battle in the Grand Canyon when Red Ronin arrives and tries
to break up the melee. Rob Takiguchi believes Yetrigar to be an innocent, just like
Godzilla, and does not wish to hurt the sasquatch-monster. At the same time, he will
not allow Yetrigar to kill Godzilla. After a brief fight, Red Ronin catches Yetrigar
in a chokehold, immobilizing the monster. Rob wonders how he can make the monster
understand that he doesn't want to hurt him. Four white water rapid river rafters pass
beneath the monsters just as Yetrigar breaks loose. The resulting avalanche traps the
rafters in the canyon. Meanwhile, Dum-dum Dugan and Gabe Jones leave the crippled
Behemoth behind and employ a SHIELD disc plane to pursue the trail of Yetrigar and
Godzilla. Back in the Grand Canyon, Godzilla gains the upper hand and begins to best
Yetrigar. Desperate to stop the fight, Rob directs Red Ronin to fire a warning shot at
Godzilla. Godzilla is enraged by the attack from his supposed ally and attacks Red Ronin
in earnest, forcing the robot to respond in kind. With both of his enemies wounded,
Yetrigar seizes the opportunity to renew his assault on Godzilla. Rob realizes that he
has upset the balance, that Godzilla is too weak to defeat Yetrigar now. Crying, Rob
unleashes Red Ronin's full power on the sasquatch, driving the monster back and burying
Yetrigar in a laser cannon induced rockslide. Dugan and Jones arrive just as both Godzilla
and Red Ronin depart and the SHIELD agents busy themselves rescuing the rafters. Inside
Red Ronin, Rob agonizes over killing Yetrigar, hoping only to run away from what he has
been forced to do.
