The next thing that Shinji knew, he was choking Asuka while on top of her, and she brushed her injured hand to Shinji's cheek. Then he broke down crying after releasing his hold on Asuka's neck. Then the red head looked down and said, "Disgusting."
After a while Shinji was still on top of Asuka, crying. Then she yelled, "WILL YOU GET OFF ME?"
The brown haired boy then soon got off Asuka, and then he sat next to her with his leg brought to his chest, wrapping his hand around it, and burying his head in the legs. "I'm sorry," replied the boy.
"Well you should be!" yelled the Second Pilot. Then she looked around and saw the red sea of LCL with the mass production Eva's hanging on a cross and half a head of Rei. "Where are we? And what happened?"
"Third Impact," replied the Third Pilot still sitting on a fetal position.
"HUH? Then why are we still alive?"
"We had to will to… As long as we have the will to live on, we will come back to Earth…"
"And how do you know that?"
"My mother told me…" replied Shinji, starting to cry.
"Stop crying!" yelled Asuka as she grabbed Shinji by his collar.
"Sorry"
"You always say sorry!" yelled Asuka while shaking Shinji. "And why were you choking me?"
"I don't know," replied Shinji, who stopped crying but looked depressed.
"You don't know? Oh that's a fabulous answer! You don't even know on what you were doing!" yelled Asuka, then mumbled, "Idiot…"
"Maybe I am…" replied Shinji.
"Ugh! Sometimes I don't know why you didn't kill yourself yet!" yelled Asuka as she threw Shinji towards the ground.
Then the boy returned to his fetal position and said, "Because everyone needed me."
"Everyone? Not everyone needed you, you know!"
"Sorry."
"Do you even know on what you're sorry for?" The boy remained silent. "I don't need you and I won't ever need you!" yelled Asuka as she started to walk away.
"So you're just going to run away like he did then Asuka?" said a too familiar voice.
When they looked to the direction on where the voice came from, they saw Misato. Shinji didn't bother to remove himself from his position but had a surprised looked on his face. Asuka was also surprised but yelled, "Who said that I was running away?"
Ignoring the question Misato went to Shinji, kneeled down and hugged Shinji. Then she looked at Asuka, "Do you want to know why he hadn't killed himself yet?"
Asuka yelled, "YES!"
"It's because we became selfish," replied Misato.
"What?"
"We became selfish to live… during the invasion when SEELE sent an army against NERV, while Shinji begged to die."
"What's your point?" asked Asuka
"He had a chance to die but since we, I mean the people at NERV wanted to live, we used Shinji…. You and Rei too…"
"Oh so it's not his fault that I got killed by the mass production Evas, it your fault then?"
"It's not their fault Asuka," replied Shinji getting up, "I was too depressed to even think about helping you…"
"Then it WAS your fault! yelled Asuka as she lunged forward to Shinji and started to strangle him.
Misato, tried to get Asuka off of Shinji. "Asuka! CALM DOWN!" yelled Misato.
"GIVE ME ONE GOOD REASON WHY I SHOULDN'T KILL THIS BASTARD RIGHT HERE AND NOW!" yelled Asuka with tears forming in her eyes.
"Your alive are you not?" said Shinji in a weak voice.
The red haired girl then dropped Shinji. Misato immediately grabbed Shinji. "So you think that we're even just because you gave me back my life?" yelled Asuka
"Asuka this is not the time, lets go and find a shelter first and talk there," replied Misato.
"Fine! But I still expect some answers! And I expect some food when we find shelter!" yelled Asuka.
Then they went looking for a place to stay. To their luck, their apartment was left standing, and electricity still seemed to work. And the good thing was that Asuka and Shinji were able to solve most of their problems. Asuka forgave Shinji about the 16th angel and mass production Eva's. Midway through the trip, since Asuka was injured Misato helped Asuka walk. The red head didn't want Shinji's help.
When they got to the apartment, Misato said, "We should talk more tomorrow… today was a long day."
"Okay," replied Shinji heading to his room.
"Whatever, but I'll be expecting more answers tomorrow!" said Asuka as she slammed her bedroom door.
Misato let out a sigh, "Atleast she seemed to calm down now…"
III
Asuka seemed to have had a pleasant dream. When she woke, it was 9:45, she was wearing a large t-shirt with short pants, and she still had her bandage on. As she opened the door, Misato opened her door at the same time. Then they both walked to the kitchen to find breakfast ready for them. They both didn't seemed to care that they didn't take a shower yet or didn't seemed bothered that Shinji was no where to be seen.
Then midway to their breakfast, Asuka noticed that a certain brown haired boy was missing. "Hey where's the idiot?"
"Aww, you do care for Shinji!" teased Misato.
"Shut up, I'm just curious that's all," said Asuka as she finished her breakfast.
"I'm home," said a weak voice as the main door opened.
Misato then ran towards the voice and hugged Shinji. "Where were you?"
"I just wanted some fresh air Misato," replied Shinji, "Oh and many people seemed to have come back during the night."
"WHAT?" yelled Asuka. "HOW DO YOU KNOW THIS?"
"I said hi to people, oh and Hikari said that she wanted to talk to you..." said Shinji gave a piece of paper with numbers on it to Asuka
Misato's phone rang. "Hello?" answered Misato, "WHAT? THAT'S GREAT!... YEA IT WAS SHINJI! HUH? … HIM TOO? WELL I GUESS WE CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT … YES I HEARD FROM SHINJI! … IT'S GREAT THAT EVERYONE CAME BACK! … ALRIGHT BYE RITZ!"
"Who was that from? And why were you yelling?" asked Asuka
"Oh it was Ritsuko. She just wanted to inform us that everyone in Tokyo 3 seemed to have come back… and other places too! And she wanted to confirm and who brought them back, but the bad thing is that there seems to be still some people missing…" said Misato as she hugged Shinji.
"And who's 'him'?" asked Asuka.
Then Misato release the hug from Shinji and said, "Commander also came back…"
Both of them looked at Shinji who just walked to his room. "Asuka you should talk to him!" whispered Misato
"HUH? Why me?"
"Because I said so!"
"Make me!" yelled Asuka as she ran to her own room.
The purple haired lady then sighed and took out a beer to drink… but as she opened her beer can, she noticed PenPen also getting a beer. "PENPEN! I MISSED YOU!" yelled Misato as she hugged the penguin.
Inside Asuka's room she said to herself, "Great now Misato went mad…"
III
In a dark room 3 rectangular monitors showed.
SEELE 01: "It seems that the Human Instrumentality Project has failed…"
SEELE 05: "So it seems… and the rest of our group seemed to have decided not to come back…"
SEELE 08: "What are we going to do know?"
SEELE 01: "We need to get into hiding… I'll meet you guys at position Delta vet 05"
SEELE 05 and 08: "Understood"
III
It was night time… most of the second and third child's day were just staying in there room to think while Misato tried to get them out of their rooms. Asuka was talking with Hikari over the phone while Shinji was listening to his SDAT. After Misato had given up and drank to her sleep. Shinji heard Asuka opening the door and laying down next to him. When he looked at her, she seemed to have sleep walked. Shinji took a sigh and tried to wake up Asuka. "Asuka, Asuka wake up."
Then her eyes snapped opened. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE IN MY ROOM?"
"S-sorry but this is not your room you know…" replied Shinji
"HUH?" yelled Asuka as she looked around and saw that she was not in her room. "How the hell did I get here?"
"Sleep walked…" mumbled Shinji
"Ha! Sleep walk? That is not possible… I bet you planned this!"
"Come again?" asked Shinji
"I bet you planned that if you said that I sleep walked you thought that I would forgive you for bringing me here!"
"Uh… why would I bring you here to my room and say that you were sleep walking… I have to say that's pretty stupid."
"Well you are an idiot!" yelled Asuka
"S-sorry…"
"Why are you apologizing?"
"Sorry"
"There you go again!"
"Alright then…" said Shinji lying back on his bed with his back towards Asuka, "If you are not going to listen…then why are you still here?"
"Well…I-uh…"
"I'm listening…" replied Shinji
Damn it! He got me! And is it me or is he finally standing up for himself… a bit… thought Asuka. "Well… I… need…someone…to…."
"To what? Hold you?" asked Shinji looking at her.
"Y-yea…." Replied Asuka shyly.
"You're joking right?" asked Shinji
"W-well…" Come on Asuka why the hell did you have to say that anyways! Like I need somebody like… well maybe I do… "No… I'm not joking…"
Asuka then met Shinji's gaze. "You're serious?"
"YES I'M SERIOUS!" then there was silence… "Aren't you going to hold me?"
"S-s-sorry.." said Shinji as he did what she told him to do..
"Thank you…" replied Asuka as she fell asleep in his arm.
"Sometime I wonder on what's going on Asuka's head," mumbled Shinji as he also fell asleep.
As the month passed by, it was back to their regular routine, Shinji would cook, Asuka will call Shinji an idiot or fight with him, and Misato will always tease them. But Asuka seemed to have acted nicer to Shinji, like she'll say 'thank you' or 'sorry' sometimes to Shinji and she fought less with him.
NERV has been rebuilt, Shinji and Asuka remained as a pilot just incase SEELE tried to do something against NERV again, Rei was an angel so she did not come back... And the Eva's were all being rebuild, Unit 00 was still being rebuild despite the fact that it had no pilot, Unit 02 has too be rebuild completely, while Unit 01 needs its armor to be replaced since the armor has been rusted during the third impact…NERV had told the government and the world that SEELE had planned the Third Impact using Shinji. Then the entire world had started to hunt down for SEELE... but SEELE could not be found. Nevertheless, the world did not stop.
During the month, Shinji and Asuka slept in the same bedroom sometimes, only when she couldn't sleep or had a nightmare, and they got more friendly to each other. Her wounds from the battle had healed after the first week, everyone thought that it was a miracle that the wounds closed up that quick, but Asuka answered, "It's because I'm the best!"
When it was the first day of school, Asuka and Shinji met everyone. The incident about the Third Impact ran around the world, though everyone seemed to have been praising Asuka instead of Shinji. They said that it was awesome seeing someone taking on those White Evas and nearly got killed and is still standing. When Asuka was about to say that it was the idiot that kept her alive, every time she was cut off by someone saying 'nice job on going 1v9!'
Everyone seemed to have been ignoring Shinji though, instead Shinji didn't seemed to care about that he wasn't getting any attention… The teacher went on about the second impact like nothing interesting happened about the third impact. After the first week… a little video was shown to Asuka during her coma by Ritsuko after school. Then everything went bad…
After watching Shinji violating the red head during her coma incident, Asuka was outraged. When she got home she saw that no one was home besides the penguin. "That little bastard! I'm going to kill him!" yelled Asuka as she punched through a wall. After 3 hours, Shinji came home. "I'm home…" replied Shinji
As Shinji went into the living room, Asuka punched Shinji in the face. Then after he fell down he said, "Ow, what was that for?"
Ignoring the question Asuka pick Shinji up by the collar and punched him in the face again, throwing him on the floor again. "What are you doing Asuka?" asked Shinji as he got up.
Then the girl started to bit up Shinji like she never did before. Every time Shinji told her to stop, she kept punching and kicking harder. After a while she stopped, then picked up Shinji and banged him to a wall. "A-Asuka?" asked Shinji weakly. He was in a bad shape, there were bruises in his face with bloody nose with blood dripping from his mouth.
She then punched him again in the face with everything she had. He then fell down on the floor whimpering in pain. "How does that feel?" asked Asuka angrily. He didn't answer. "That's how I feel right now knowing on what you did to me during the time I was in a coma! And when were you planning to tell me this?"
His eyes widened, "H-how d-did you find out? And I was planning to tell you soon."
"Just today… to think that I was beginning to like you! And you planned to tell me soon? How soon? Soon is not soon enough! SO from now on, don't speak to me, don't even think about getting close to me, and don't even think about becoming friends with me!"
"B-But Asuka…"
"Shut it! Don't even call my name! Your dead to me now!" yelled Asuka with fury and with tears in her eyes as she ran to her room.
Shinji just sat there and think about on what he had done. He then went to the bathroom and started to clean up. When Misato came home he saw Shinji coming out of the bathroom with so many bruises. "What happened?" asked Misato as he went to Shinji
"Got bitten up by Asuka…and don't even trying to talk to her… I deserve it…" said Shinji as he went to his room and shut the door.
"What on Earth happened?" asked Misato to herself. Then she knocked on Asuka's door. "Asuka, you awake?"
"Go away," replied Asuka sounding like she was crying.
"What happened?" asked Misato as she opened the door revealing a red haired girl burying her head in her pillow.
"Ask Ritsuko, she'll tell you…" said Asuka.
"I want to hear it form you though…" replied Misato.
"Go call her on the phone… she'll gladly tell you…" said Asuka, "Now get out of my room."
Misato took a sigh and did on what she was told. She then took out her phone and said, "Ritsuko, what did you tell Asuka?"
Early Next morning:
When Shinji got up, he felt like he was having a really bad hangover. When he looked at the time it was 6:45. School now didn't start till 7:45. He thought that he should cook breakfast and lunch. When he opened the door, he was greeted by Misato with a very, very disappointing face. "Shinji," replied Misato, "We need to talk."
Shinji then took a sigh. He was then dragged into the Dining room. "Asuka already left, and I heard on what you did from Ritsuko."
Great thought Shinji
"Now… answer me this, why did you do 'that' to Asuka?" asked Misato
"I don't know…" said Shinji
"Was it revenge? Lust? Or desire?"
"I don't know…" replied Shinji
"Answer me NOW!"
"I don't know…"
"Do I have to repeat myself?"
"Fine! All of them! Happy?" yelled Shinji
"No I'm not happy, I expected better from you Shinji, and normally I would be against to letting Asuka beat you like that but you had that coming." Said Misato
"I know."
"Look, until you can fully find a way to Asuka, don't come back," said Misato.
Shinji's eyes widened.
"I'm serious… what you did is unforgivable…" said Misato, "And remember don't even think about coming back until you find a god damn good reason to! With an appropriate apology!"
"Okay," replied Shinji sounding depressed
"And here's the money for the school's lunch, Asuka also took her money for the food," said Misato
Then Shinji grabbed his stuff and went to school
Misato sat back on her chair and took out a beer. "I wonder if I was too harsh on him…"
When Shinji arrived at school, no one seemed to have even notice him except for Touji and Kensuke. As Shinji sat down, Touji asked, "Dude what happened to ya?"
"Touji it should be obvious the Demon did that to him!" said Kensuke
"Well doing that for no reason is bad!" yelled Touji
"She had a good reason to do this…" said Shinji.
On the other side of the room, Asuka had told Hikari of the event. "Asuka, that's horrible, I normally don't think violence is the answer but he did deserve that one…" replied Hikari
"Yea… and I said that he was dead to me now…"
"Now that was a little too harsh I thought that beating him up was good enough…" said Hikari
"Nothing you can do now…" replied Asuka
Shinji hadn't told Kensuke on what happened but told Touji since Touji is good at keeping secrets while Kensuke likes to gossip. "Damn… saying that you were dead to her… harsh…"
"And the worst part is that Misato kicked me out today…" said Shinji
"Dude! That's worse! Where will you stay?"
"I don't know… but some where… don't worry, I can take care of myself…" replied Shinji
"Alright… but if you do need a place to stay you can crash over to my house, my parents just went to a business trip while my sister is still in the hospital, don't worry man she's doing better!"
"How are the injuries for you?" asked Shinji
"Dude after the Third Impact I got my arms and my leg back! I forgot to thank you for that!" said Touji patting Shinji in the back
Then the class started. Nearing the end of the day, Shinji got a message in his laptop saying, 'Meet us in the back of the school after it ends'
No use trying to avoid it… nothing better to do… thought Shinji
After school ended, Asuka just went home while Shinji was gone to the backyard of the school. There he met 3 seniors. One had light brown hair, the other short greet hair, and the third with spiky black hair. The light brown hair said, "Good to see that you don't back down from a fight oh all might Shinji!"
"This is going to be a fight?" asked Shinji
"That's right!" said the black hair.
"Three against one… not the best odds," said Shinji
"So what? Asuka was able to handle 9v1!" said the green hair
"This is not worth my time, I have to go right now…" said Shinji as he turned around to go home but the black haired senior grabbed Shinji turning him to face the black hair person, and planted a fist him Shinji's face causing him to call down. Then three seniors of the school started to kick him around.
After a while, they said, "Ha, so this is what Shinji, the world's savior can do? Pathetic, you don't even know that half of the school wants you dead!" then they walked away.
Shinji then stood up and said to himself, "I knew it I'm worthless…" then he looked at the sky and noticed that it was about to rain. "Maybe it's better if I just runaway… no one will miss me… they all just turned on me…" then he started to run.
III
Back at Misato's:
Misato was trying to cook dinner, but then her phone rang. "Hello?"
"MISATO!" yelled the voice of Ritsuko
"Oh his Ritz, and why are you yelling?"
"Where's Shinji?"
"I don't care for what he does or where he is right now…" said Misato in a harsh voice
"Well you should! Section 2 lost him after school ended!"
"Well it's there problem, I no longer wish to be his guardian Ritz."
"Misato you don't understand, his mind is corrupted with many memories of people, if his mind is affected negatively, and it'll cause him to do something stupid!"
"Like what?" asked Misato as she finished cooking and set dinner on the table.
"Like running away, killing himself, or any other things that can be either suicidal or stupid!"
"Oh…." Said Misato.
"Please don't tell me that you and Asuka told him that you guys gave up on him or something…" then there was silence. "MISATO YOU IDIOT!" yelled Ritsuko through the phone.
"Oh God…" said Misato as she dropped her phone.
She then ran into Asuka's room who was talking with Hikari. Misato took the phone away form Asuka and said, "She'll call back later!" and turned the phone off.
"Hey! I was talking about something important!" yelled Asuka
"Have you seen Shinji?" asked Misato
"No… I have not besides school… and why should I care about that perv anyways?"
"Do you at least know on where he is?" asked Misato again
"NO I DON'T AND STOP SAYING HIS GOT DAMN NAME!" yelled Asuka
"Oh God… please don't tell me…" said Misato as she quickly ran out of the room. Asuka followed her.
"What did that bastard do now?" asked Asuka
Misato quickly grabbed her car keys and grabbed NERV rain coat, "Shinji might have ran away or is trying to kill himself if he didn't do so yet…"
Asuka's eyes widened… "Your kidding right?"
"Normally I might, but this is serious… do you know any places that he could go?"
"No…"
Then Misato's phone rang again. "Hello?" asked Misato to her phone
"Major Katsuragi," answered a cold, deep voice.
"C-Commander!"
"Major, is it true that the Third Child ran away?"
"Y-yes…"
"I want you and the Second Child at Nerv in my office right now!" yelled Gendo.
"R-Right away sir!" said Misato as she hung up.
"Well? What did that cold bastard want Misato?" asked Asuka
"He wants to see us… about Shinji…"
The red head was about to yell in protest but Misato said ,"No buts! Grab your coat we need to go now!" Asuka nodded slowly.
III
As Asuka and Misato entered Gendo's office, they saw the Commander, Sub-commander, and Touji in the same room. "Touji?" yelled Asuka, "What are you doing here?"
Touji was about to answer but Gendo said, "He was here to report about on what you guys said to Shinji."
"But why do you care anyways C-O-M-M-A-N-D-E-R?"
"Now, Now Asuka there's no need to get mad for Gendo to be worried about his son for the first time," said a very familiar voice to both Asuka and Misato behind them.
Misato's and Asuka's eyes widened. "K-Kaji?" said Misato as she couldn't believe on what she saw.
"Hello, Misato, glad to see that the Third Impact didn't to anything to you," replied Kaji.
"Wha-how-" said Asuka.
"Kaji here was brought back after the Third Impact… most likely due to Shinji's decision in it…" said the Sub Commander.
Misato and Asuka stood there shocked still… Then Gendo said, "What Kaji said is true, I had a talk with Yui before I came back…"
Everyone looked at Gendo besides the sub-commander, Kaji, and Touji, Touji was told of Shinji's mother's tragedy during the Eva experiment before Asuka and Misato came in.
"With h-his mother sir?" asked Misato
"Yes… though I wish to keep what she and I said to each other confidential… But I would tell you this… I made a promise to Yui to take care of our son…"
"That IS a surprise Commander," said Kaji
"Now, Major Katsuragi, give me one reason why I should have you fired, no executed for your actions…" said Gendo raising his voice a little.
"W-well… I-I…" Misato couldn't think of anything to say.
"Well sir, you can't blame her for her actions, you must've seen what Shinji did in the hospital yes?" said Kaji
"So?"
"Then you can't blame her for over reacting sir."
"I see… And I guess the same reason goes to the Second Child also?"
"Yes."
"Very well then… I'll still let her keep her job with the same salaries," said Gendo.
"Thank you sir," said Kaji
"Y-yes Thank You!" said Misato to Gendo and shot Kajji with a 'thank you' look.
"But, when Shinji is found, he is going to be relocated," said Kozo Fuyutsuki, "If he wishes to be…"
"Understood sir," said Misato.
"Now… Pilot Soryu…" said Gendo
"Y-yes sir?" said Asuka
"You should know, before you ran out of the room after she gave you the video, your body right now is the same before my son's…unfortunate event…" said Gendo.
"R-Really?" said the shocked Asuka
"Yes, the MAGI stated that everyone who got contaminated or injured got healed if they decided to return."
"HA! NOW YOU OWE SHINJI AN APOLIGY!" yelled Touji
"Shut up BAKA!" yelled Asuka
"And Major," said Fuyutsuki
"Yes?"
"You are not allowed to help search for the Third Child."
"M-may I ask why?"
"Because for the moment he sees you, he'll probably run away…"
"I-I see… then who will be searching for him sir?"
Then Gendo motioned is right hand like telling someone to come. Then out of the darkness, 2 light colored skin teens showed up, both with red eyes, one with white hair and the other blue hair.
"Rei, Nagisa, and Kaji will be searching for the runaway pilot," said Gendo
"R-Rei? H-how are you alive? I thought that you were part of Lilith and you were not supposed to return…" said Asuka.
"Shinji gave me a choice… like to the formal Angel, Tabris here," said Rei as she pointed to her right.
"Ayanami, my name is Kaworu Nagisa now," said the white haired teen.
"You mean even Angel's can come back now?" asked Misato
"No they can't" replied Rei
"Touji," said Gendo
"Y-Yes sir?" asked Touji
"Would you still like to Pilot? Your sister is healed thanks to the impact…"
"I-I…"
"We won't force you… it's your own choice to make…" said Fuyutsuki
"I-I woul-d like to pilot…" replied Touji
"I see… All of you are dismissed… Kaji, Rei, and Tabris, you guys will start your search for Shinji," said the Commander.
"Yes sir!" yelled the 3 called names.
"And sir, my name is Kaworu Nagisa," replied the former Angel
"Doesn't matter, to me, once an Angel, always have an Angel identity," replied Gendo
"Yes sir," replied Nagisa
"Sir, why would you get a help from an angel?" asked Asuka
"He is no longer an Angel Pilot Soryu," replied Rei, "He is now a human."
"Lilim… I'm a Lilim now," said Tabris
"We are called Human, we don't care what you angels called us, we call ourselves HUMAN!" yelled Touji
"Either way, you guys are dismissed, farther questions will not be tolerated…" replied Gendo.
Then Misato and Asuka were escorted out of the office by the 3 searchers.
"Misato… do you think that Shinji wants to come back to your place?" asked Asuka
"I don't know… for all we did to him, he'll most likely choose no…" replied Misato.
"Then… do you think that his still alright?"
"I don't know…"
"We really screwed up didn't we?" asked Asuka as tears started to form in her eyes.
"I wouldn't say that we screwed up… I say that we messed up with confusion…" replied Misato as she hugged Asuka
III
Shinji was walking in the streets, it was still raining, he didn't know how long he was walking. Then out of no where 2 men in black suits came in front of Shinji. "Shinji Ikari?" asked one of the men.
"Yes?" asked Shinji.
"We would like you to come with us to Germany's Nerv," said the other.
"Why?"
"You don't ask questions."
"And if I refuse?" asked Shinji
"We were ordered to use force if necessary."
"Then the obvious answer would be a no but to be forced will be a yes wouldn't it?" asked Shinji as he backed away a little.
"Yes," said the both men at once.
Then Shinji started to run away but was caught by a third Agent. (A.N. There were no one on the streets and no cars) He was then dragged into a black car.
IIII
Well that's it for now… Please tell me on how it was and how I can improve… English is not my best subject here… R&R PLEASE!
