King Ghidorah crashes to Earth in a meteorite, and begins destroying cities and abducting children. Mol and Lora summon Mothra, who is beaten by King Ghidorah in battle. Mothra travels to the prehistoric past, in order to fight the younger and less powerful Ghidorah. Mothra destroys the young Ghidorah in a volcano, but leaves a damaged piece of his tail behind. In the present, King Ghidorah disappears, but Mothra is also gone, unable to return from the past. King Ghidorah returns, restored from the tail fragment, and resumes his destruction. Mothra's body, preserved by prehistoric Mothra larvae, is unearthed, revealing a powerful armored form. With the help of the twins and Belvera, Mothra fights and ultimately destroys King Ghidorah.
