Plot

After their crash landing, the CKR come out unharmed but find themselves surrounded by Russians holding weapons. Back on the Cryog ship, their leader is informed about the Mechagodzillas returning to base by Minette and Mallory. The leader of the Cryogs hooks them up to a machine to interface with Mecha-King Ghidorah and he activates the remaining Mechagodzilla's. Allie and Steven are able to get in contact with the higher-ups in Washington, and Godzilla and Mecha-King Ghidorah continue their battle. Over in Russia, our team has encountered a badly damaged Kiryu. As Anguirus walks away from their battle, an explosion goes off at the base and our team stays put while the Russian army men begin investigating what happened. Mecha-King Ghidorah attacks Godzilla more after he drops him onto the city floor. Minette and Mallory realize that they weren't controlling him and Godzilla is being held down by several Mechagodzilla units while Mecha-King Ghidorah shoots beams at Godzilla weakening him, the Mechagodzillas' charge toward Godzilla but he attacks them first and slams Mecha-King Ghidorah onto the ground. Godzilla begins to deliver his Atomic Breath but a few more Mechagodzilla's begin attacking him, letting Mecha-King Ghidorah throw a few attacks at Godzilla, Godzilla manages to fire his Atomic Ray at Mecha-King Ghidorah causing the girls to bleed from their eyes and shake rapidly. Godzilla realizes what's going on and shoots his Atomic Ray at the Mechanical Dragon, Mechagodzilla's surround Godzilla but Anguirus comes in and helps Godzilla defeat the Mechagodzilla's and Mecha-King Ghidorah flees leaving Godzilla and Anguirus to have a victory roar over the destroyed Boston.
