Short story: Grief visits Tokyo. _WIP_

It was a normal cold and foggy morning in Tokyo Bay, crowds were flocking nearby at the dock in preparation for the annual Kyōtei boat race sporting event. As the crowd got situated and the racers prepared to commence the race something odd was happening a few meters from the starting line. Large bubbles were appearing on the surface and began to pop as they emerged. However many of the racers ignored this due to being focused on the  race, even more so were the crowds who were getting ready to watch.
As the rider’s sports motorboats engines roared to life and the crowd got all set the bubbles became more and more numerous. Soon a massive gush of water was seen bursting from the ocean and the waves pushed the boats asides. Arisen from the waters was a head of a giant anthrompahmorphic fox. He had black fur, two radiant light green eyes with dark purple pupils and oddly enough he had giant dyed light purple bangs and actually color matching mullet.
“Kon'nichiwa Tōkyō!” the monster yelled out in a loud and almost cheerful manner.

Soon the crowd started to stare at the monsters head and panic. They watched in pure disbelief as the monster arose even more from the waters until it showed its true form, a giant foxlike hybrid monster of astonishingly young age. It looked down at the racers who are in shock at the massive size of this being.

“Sore Dokero!” it sad before unleashing a mighty gust of wind from its mouth blowing over many of the racers knocking them off their motorboats or just scattering them about.

With those pedestrians out of the way the monster started to slowly wade to the bay’s shoreline. The remaining observers on land soon fled in terror as it moved. Soon the creature pulled itself up onto shore with its strange, almost human like hands. When it arose onto shore the people fleeing in terror could indeed see its eerie, yet cute human like features and its massive head akin to ironically Japan’s famous anime based art style. The creature was clearly around 90 meters in height and just as proportionate to its body, save its abnormally large head. It soon began to shake off the water in a manner similar to a dog would.

“Well I finally made it Tokyo! Man this is going to be awesome!”

Grief looked around the radiant and famous city with an intimidating and devious, yet somewhat perky smile upon his massive face. He was very excited to be in Tokyo after swimming all that time from California. During his young life thus far Grief would watch Japanese animes and he always wanted to visit Tokyo. Now he was doing so Godzilla style, fitting for the strongest monster the city was known for.  

“Hashire! Jaiantokitsune no kaibutsu!” let out one woman as people moved past her to flee from Grief’s towering presence.

Grief began stomp down the street with little regard for everything in his path. He would crush everything and everyone who got in way. His excitement made him eager to fulfill all his childhood dreams and fantasies of touring Tokyo in his massive head.

As the monster child moved his massive vulpine like tail would swerve around wagging in happiness. Inevitably Grief’s massive tail would swipe into buildings next to or behind him and even unto the streets causing even more collateral damage.

“Ok, first things first. Time to visit Sega!” the child let out in a voice that was so loud it could misinterpreted from the ground as a roar.  

Grief then stomped off towards the Ōta ward. As the giant monster child moved through the crowded streets searching for the Sega building’s distinct logo people began to flee from him even more. Luckily Griefan seemed more focused on searching for something rather than crushing them all.

Soon Grief caught sight of the building from his elevation. He was able to make out the Sega Corporation’s distinct logo as portrayed on a tiny sign right outside their office building. Grief’s face with giddy with childlike glee as he looked down at the little sign.

“There it is!”

Grief stomped straight towards Sega’s headquarters with little to stop him. While Grief was somewhat disappointed with their main office building’s architecture being somewhat generic in design compared to their other buildings Grief nevertheless knew that was the Sega Corporations main building via researching it online when he was in his normal form.  


Eventually the bratty behemoth made his way to the Sega Corporate building. He leaned down to peek into the building to get a view of all that went on in Sega Corporation. The giant’s massive eyes gazed into the comparably tiny windows of the office. He could see that for the most part it was like a regular Japanese office building with cubicles and workstations, except for the Sega logo around here and there and some manikins of Sega characters, primary being their mascot Sonic.

“Cooooool” Grief said while observing the interior.

The employees and staff members who were recently distracted by their duties and jobs to the company eventually heard the giant’s voice and looked at the window to notice the monster child’s eye starring right at them.
