Godzilla: The Series
"New Family: Part 1"
Some time after Godzilla's death at the hands of the United States military in New York, his footprints in Jamaica became a tourist attraction. Some beachgoers began to mysteriously vanish under the waves, dragged down by strange tentacles, as well as rescue boats searching for any survivors. American military officials blamed the disappearances on the yet-to-be-located infant Godzilla, though Nick dismissed it due to the young monster having been with H.E.A.T. at the time. Believing the disappearances to be caused by another mutation, H.E.A.T. traveled to Jamaica to investigate.
"New Family: Part 2"
While Nick and Randy remained at H.E.A.T.'s headquarters, Elsie, Craven, and N.I.G.E.L. ventured to Jamaica to investigate the disappearances. While studying some tar on the beach line, Elise noticed a pulse coming from a pile of tar. A fish broke out of the pile, barley alive. After studying the tar and the fish, the two determined the tar served as a predigestive process for another creature, draining victims of all electrolytes and nutrients while keeping them alive. Elsie relayed the information to Nick via phone; however, the call was interrupted when the two were attacked by several large squids. Nick, Randy, and Monique arrived later, but could only find the remains of Elsie and Craven's boat. Fortunately, Randy was able to locate N.I.G.E.L's signal, they dredged up the machine, Craven, and Elsie. After removing the tar from Elsie and Craven, the group was attacked by the Mutant Giant Squids. One grabbed Nick, but was quickly attacked by the now mature Godzilla, who quickly killed all the Giant Squids.
H.E.A.T. then investigated the squid carcasses that washed ashore, and found that while some were charred by Godzilla's atomic breath, others were drained of nutrients themselves. Nick theorized the Mutant Giant Squids may not be the apex predator as they assumed, but part of a larger food chain. Suddenly, the Crustaceous Rex surfaced. The monster attempted to feed on a nearby Giant Squid, but found it couldn't siphon any tar from the squid's burnt corpse. The Crustaceous Rex then turned it's attention to a nearby town, attempting to find a substitute food source. The Jamaican military tried to stop the creature, but proved to be ineffective. Godzilla then arrived and battled the monster. The fight then took to a nearby cliff, where Godzilla burrowed along the ridge, attempting to cause the edge to cave in, and take the C-Rex with it. The strategy worked, but the C-Rex ensnared Godzilla and dragged him down in the fall, burying both under the rubble. Godzilla emerged and was attacked by the military, driving him back into the sea where he rescued the surviving swimmers and boat crews, carrying them and their vessels back to the surface. Seeing this act, Major Hicks decided to spare Godzilla, though he made it clear to Nick that he didn't want to have to regret it.
