Big deal. Live with it, Mother Nature. Bitch.
However, during the land clearing, one of the crew members discovers an ancient seal stuck inside of a rock. He removes it, and instead of taking it to a pawn shop owner and discovering it's worth a small fortune, he puts a chain on it and gives it to his daughter (who cares about being out of debt, as long as your little girl gets a present). However, a small tiny fairy girl named Belvera hunts down the seal with the help of her pet cyborg, Garugaru. Putting a spell upon the girl, the two of them begin haunting the place, scaring the bejebus out of her mother and brother in the meantime.
Hot fairy sisters to the rescue! It's the singing Mothra duo, Moll and Laura, and they have a pet Mini-Mothra in tow. After an epic and exciting areal battle in the middle of someone's living room, Moll and Laura retrieve the seal and team up with the family with the blown up house to stop Desghidorah, an evil creature bent on sucking the life out of world and leaving them dead. The seal in question was meant to contain Desghidorah inside of his prison, where he laid dormant for millions of years.
But they're too late. Despite the fact that the hole created by the seal is two inches wide, Desghidorah escapes. Moll and Laura must call the Earth's protector, Mothra, via trippy, effects filled music video Mothra comes to the rescue, and as soon as humanity discovers the Earth's protector is a giant moth, there is sigh heard around the world as everyone wonders "That's it? That's the best we got?"
Unfortunatly, it is. And not only is our savior a giant bug, but she's a giant bug who is near death as well. Mothra gives Desghidorah everything she has, but unfortunatly the only way she would have been less effective is if Desghidorah was equiped with a giant fly swatter. And if that wasn't pathetic enough, guess who comes to her aid? Her baby caterpilliar fresh out of the egg.
Oi. *smacks forhead*
The short of it is, baby Mothra gets the shit kicked out of her, and adult Mothra's final moments are in agony as she dies squaring off against Desghidorah. Earth's only chance is if baby Mothra can transfrom into an adult Mothra in time to save the day.
Which is exactly what happens. Whodathunkit?
