Neon Genesis Evangelion

Hope from the Sky

A/N: I decided to take my try on the idea of Shinji and Unit-01 being sent to a different dimension after facing the Twelfth Angel in the anime. If I post this in due time, I'll be the first to have done it. With the crossovers in the works, it's only a matter of time before someone beats me to the punch. Here goes!

It had been quite a while since Shinji Ikari ever knew helplessness before when facing an Angel, a so-called enemy that he knew, virtually, nothing about, and had no concrete understanding of them, even when he asked about why they were called what they were called. All he knew was that he had been sucked into a deep, dark hole with no light, and he wasn't sure when, how and if, NERV would rescue him from the Angel.

His senses were dulled, so he didn't feel the crash that could only occur when falling from a great height. But luckily for him, he was still in Unit-01 so the impact was less than half of what it could've had been if he had been outside it.

"Aah," he groaned, feeling like that time he'd been attacked by the Third Angel in his first sortie, when he didn't know anything about the Angels or the Evas.

"Aaahh!" He heard the sounds of screaming shortly after, and he looked through the eyes of the Eva…and saw a tall wall that reminded him of a picture he once saw of the Great Wall of China, only this wall was more medieval and was under attack by a giant, skinless being. "Aaahh!"

What? He thought, now seeing that below the wall and skinless giant were smaller beings the size of small houses and trees, all trying to get through the wall and into whatever was behind it.

The skinless giant turned to face him, and suddenly approached his Eva.

Shinji had never seen such a horrible sight; he had never known the inside of the human body without its skin, let alone a creature that could survive without any skin protecting its softer innards. And yet, the sight of this giant made him assume that whatever its intentions were, they weren't at all to strike a friendly conversation or anything of the sort. He checked the remaining energy reserves of the Eva, and was displeased with the amount of operational time left before the Eva powered down.

Only three minutes, he realized, deciding that he needed to defend himself from this giant. It'll have to do for now.

He made Unit-01 rise up, just in time to block an assault from the giant with its arms, preventing him from being forced back onto the ground.

Whoa! He mentally gasped, surprised as how strong the skinless giant was, but Unit-01 had the advantage of being a little bigger than it was by an additional forty meters in height, so if Shinji played it carefully, Unit-01 would prevail.

"My God," went Eren Yeager, watching the Colossal Titan attack the larger giant that looked nothing like any of the Titans they had seen approaching the Wall.

"Is that another Titan?" Armin asked.

"Not like any I've seen before," said Jean. "It's larger than the Colossal and looks like it's covered in armor, just like the Armored Titan."

"Whatever it is, the Colossal doesn't seem to view it as a friend," Armin pointed out.

They then saw the purple giant punch the Colossal in its face, sending it staggering backwards, falling onto the ground.

"Whoa!" Eren gasped, never imagining such force being able to attack a Titan as powerful or as tall as the Colossal, even with just a single punch.

"Whatever that thing is," went Armin, "it clearly views the Colossal as an enemy."

"What is it doing?" Jean questioned, pointing to it as it looked like it was taking something out of its left shoulder.

With less than two minutes left, Shinji knew that he needed to end this quickly, and pulled out his Progressive Knife.

Here goes, he thought, and thrust the knife forward, piercing the skinless giant in the chest, driving the blade upwards, and cleaving the giant's head in half!

Unable to even react in pain, the giant fell backwards and onto the ground.

Then, due to his experience with the Angels and their regenerative abilities, Shinji used the Prog. Knife to cut the cleaved pieces of the giant's head from the body and then the arms, along with the legs before the power went out.

"It killed the Colossal," Armin shuddered.

Suddenly, the Titans below them at the bottom of the Wall started to move away, towards the purple giant, as if to avenge their fallen comrade.

As soon as he saw the smaller giants approaching him, Shinji wished he had an Umbilical Cable eliminating his power restriction. And worse was that the Eva was down to its last ten seconds.

"What am I gonna do?" He questioned aloud.

To be continued…

A/N: And here's the first chapter of what will hopefully be a short crossover between Neon Genesis Evangelion and Attack on Titan. But you don't know for sure until you try something. Read and review, like always, and I'll get to you. Peace!
