On March 1st, 1954, the Americans detonated the first hydrogen bomb in order to test its potential. When it was set off, it exceeded expectations, generating an explosion around one thousand times more powerful than the atomic bombs that ended the second world war. Many creatures died from the blast, and if they somehow managed to escape, the radiation would kill them. One, however, lived: A gargantuan, reptillian creature. It was swimming peacefully in the ocean, ignorant of what was about to come. Suddenly, the creature heard a loud rumbling sound. As it got louder and louder, it turned around, only to see a bright, blinding glow hotter than the sun itself. In a panic, creature tried to escape, but the light caught up to him, incinerating his skin and sending it flying. The creature lay there, in the middle of the ocean, but unable to die like the other creatures had. Agony continued to spread and grow, and yet the creature kept living, not being able to end its suffering. As the pain kept growing, it slowly turned into anger, then rage. Pure, unadulterated, hatred. The creature knew who did this to him. They were the ones who took over his territory, and now have bombarded him with unimaginable amounts of pain. The creature mustered up all its strength, swimming to the surface and roared loud as it could, swearing that one day, it will kill every single one of them, and no one would be spared. After that, it retreated back into the ocean, and the world fell silent once more. Faraway, a boat with 23 men named the Lucky dragon No.5 was drifting by. The men, who simply froze and watched in terror, were unable to forget what they just witnessed. This event would soon become the first very sighting of the "giant sea dinosaur."
