Shinji and Misato went through Nerv, Getting lost on the way, Until Dr. Ritsuko came over to them
"Why did it take you this long to get the boy, Capt. Katsuragi, You know Nerv is short on manpower and time"
"Sorry!", Misato said, Lifting her fingers Infront of her mouth with her hand behind her back
Ritsuko sighed
"Is this the boy?"
"Yup, He's the third children reported by the Marduk institute"
"Nice to meet you", Ritsuko said
"Um.. Yes ma'am"
"Wow, You have a total lack of any charm", I said, Walking around the corner
"What.are.you.doing. here", Misato said, Grinding her teeth with anger, Looking at me
"What, I can't walk around a place I made, Anyway I'll be going now, See you around"
Misato was still looking in the direction I went, Still with the fury of a thousand flames in her eyes, until Ritsuko whispered something into her ear
"Calm down, It wouldn't be good to get mad here, Especially Infront of the boy"
Misato then calmed down
"Sorry, You had to see that side of me", Misato said to Shinji
"Huh, What side of you", Shinji said, Not seeing anything because he was too focused on reading the book
"Nevermind, Forget I said anything"
"Ok, Mrs. Katsuragi"
==============================
"Take care of things here", Gendo said, Moving down on a elevator
"They haven't seen each other in three years"
"Deputy commander, The target is beginning to move again"
"Very well. All personal to condition one battle stations", Kouzou said
==============================
"I repeat, Condition one battle stations!, Prepare for ground intercept.", A speaker said
"This sounds bad"
"So, How is unit 01?", Misato said
"It's being cooled down in it's type B configuration"
"Is that thing really going to work, It hasn't worked once, Right?"
"The odds of a successful activation is 0.00000000001%, Calling it the 0-9 system was certainly accurate"
"Doesn't that mean it won't work?", Misato said
"Don't be rude. It's not 0%"
"Sure, numerically, Ah well. We don't exactly have the luxury of accepting failure"
While Ritsuko and Misato are saying this, Shinji is in the middle of the two of them, Focusing on reading the book
==============================
All three of them are now on a boat, Going towards a big door, Which they went inside of, With the door closing behind them, Shinji finally realizes that he can't see the book
"Um, I can't see a thing!"
The lights then turn on and a big mechanical head was suddenly Infront of Shinji, Which he got spooked by
"A face?, A giant robot!", Shinji said, Checking the book Misato gave to him in the car
"You won't find this in the orientation book, This is the ultimate multipurpose decisive combat weapons systems created by man, The artificial human Evangelion, Unit 01 of the series, built in complete secrecy, This is mankind's very last trump card", Ritsuko said
"This is my father's work?"
"Correct, It's been a while", Gendo said
"Father...", Shinji said, Looking at his father with terror on his face, Then looking at the ground
Then Gendo smiled
"Launch the Eva"
"Launch the Eva?, But Unit 00 Is still grounded!. Wait, you want to use Unit 01!?", Misato said
"There's no other choice"
"Wait just a second!, Rei is in no condition for that!, It's got no pliot!,
"He's just arrived"
"Are you serious?", Misato said
"Shinji Ikari"
"Yes?"
"You're going to pliot it"
"Huh", Shinji said, With even more terror in his eyes
"But it took even Rei Ayamani seven months to synchronize with her Eva!, He literally just got here!, He couldn't possibly do it!"
"All I ask is for him to sit in the cockpit, Nothing more."
"But..."
"Repelling that angel is our number one priority right now. For that, We need anyone capable of synchronizing with an Eva to try, However remote the chances are. I shouldn't need to tell you this. Capt. Katsuragi."
"You're right"
"Father... Why did you send for me?"
"For the reason you are thinking"
"So you want me to get inside this and fight that thing out there?", Shinji said, With his shoulders getting tense and his voice rising
"Correct."
"I don't want to do that!, Why send for me after all this time?!, I thought you left me because you didn't need me!", Shinji said, Yelling and having tears coming out of his eyes, Sounding heartbroken and dejected
"I do now, So I sent for you."
Shinji then lowers his head to look at the ground
"But why me?"
"Because it's impossible for anyone else."
"It is for me, too. I've never seen or heard of this thing before, I can't possibly do it!", Shinji said, With his voice, Sounding like its on the verge of crying again, And cracking
"Learn how"
"That's...That's impossible!, There's no way I can pliot this!"
"If you're going to pliot it, Do it. Otherwise, Get out!", Said Gendo, Looking down at Shinji with disappointment
Misato, Ritsuko and all the workers were now looking at Shinji
==============================
The angel shot a invisible beam out of his eye, Which then turned into a explosion, That looks like a cross, With that cross being purple
The Nerv base then started to shake
"That bastard must have figured out where we are", Gendo said
The angel than shot another one and the Nerv base shaked again
"Shinji, We don't have must time"
Shinji heard that and turned to Misato
"Get in", Misato said, With her arms folded across her chest
Shinji then looked at the ground again, With a shadow covering his eyes
"No way. I just got here!, This is crazy!"
"Tell me Shinji, Why did you come?", Misato said, Getting down on her knees(😏), looking into Shinji's eyes
Shinji then turned away from Misato
"Don't run away! Not from your father, and especially not from yourself"
"I know!, But there's no way I can do this!"
Then it was silence with Gendo. Looking down at Shinji with disappointment in his eyes,
"Fuyutsuki", Gendo said, Looking to a screen
With Fuyutsuki appearing on the screen
"Wake up Rei"
"Is she available?"
"She isn't dead"
"Understood."
Then the screen Fuyutsuki was on, Then got cut out and Rei was on screen
"Rei"
"Yes?"
"The backup isn't working, I need you again."
"Yes. Sir"
==============================
"Rewrite Unit 01's core system for Rei!, Reactivate!", Ritsuko said
"Roger, Suspending current tasks and initiating reactivation"
"I knew it...Nobody wants me"
Then Shinji saw Rei on the stretcher, Bandaged up and still injuried, Get up from the stretcher, breathing heavily
The angel shot another invisible beam, This time it pierced through into the Geo-Front, Making towers fall and making Nerv shake very violently, Making lights, Rei, Shinji, And some of the roof fall,
Right onto Shinji as well and just as it was about to crush Shinji, The Evangelion moved it hand to block Shinji
"The Eva moved", Said Makoto
"What the hell", Said Aoba
"It's right arm broke free from it's restraints", Said Ibuki
"What?!, That can't be! it doesn't even have a entry plug in!, It's incapable of moving", Ritsuko said
"It reacted without any interface connection?, Or was it trying.....to protect him, This will work", Said Misato
Shinji than ran over to Rei to help her up, With Rei sounding like she's in a lot of pain, Then Shinji looked back at Unit 01. Then back at Rei, Only to see blood on his hand,
"Don't run away", Shinji thought
"I'll do it. I'll be the pilot!"
Once Shinji said that
The doors to the Evangelion open and everyone looked at the doors to see why they were opening
They saw a man on a boat, Wearing a butler suit, That barely hides his muscles, with glasses, Nicely shaved bread and hair, But weirdly enough they couldn't see his face, Going towards the catwalk for the Evangelion, This person was none other than me
Once I reached the catwalk, I jumped up onto it with grace and elegance, With everyone now seeing my face,
"How did you know about this place, This place was built after your death", Gendo said
"Please you honestly didn't think that I don't know what going on inside of Nerv, Something I made?"
Misato saw me and was angry but she didn't what to argue Infront of Shinji, So she backed off and everyone else was just too shocked to say a word
I walk over to Shinji and put my hand on his shoulder
"Listen to me Boy, People may force you to do something you don't what to but don't let them instead do something because you what to do it, Not because somebody else said it. No because you Wanted to do it"
Shinji then looked up at me
"So, Boy. Do you want to get in that Eva"
Shinji looked at Rei, Knowing he got her life in his hands,
"Yes, I want to pilot it"
"Ok, I mean I can fight it, But you wanted to do it, So", I said, Shrugging my shoulders
"But I thought my father said that I'm the only one who will be able to fight that thing"
"You're the only who can fight it in an Evangelion, I can fight it without one"
Everyone heard that I said that and was shocked
"How can you fight a angel without a Eva, That's suicide!", Said Ritsuko
"I'll explain when I get back, But in the meantime, I'll catch a ride to the top on the Eva", I said, Jumping onto the Eva's head, Which is nowhere near the catwalk
"Send it up and don't question why", Gendo said
==============================
"Inserting entry plug, Plug locked in position, establishing level one connection, Flooding entry plug"
"Huh, What is this stuff", Shinji said freaking out about the plug, Being filled with orange liquid,
"Don't worry, Once your lungs are filled with LCL, It will work as a replacement for oxygen, You'll get used to it in no time"
"This is so gross"
"Deal with it!, You're a big boy!", Misato said to Shinji
After a couple of seconds past
"No signs of runaway", Ibuki said
"We're good to go", Ritsuko said
"Prepare for launch!", Misato said
"Transport Unit 01 to launch bay, Launch path is all clear, Signs show all green, Launch preparations are complete", Ibuki said
"Roger that, Do we have a go. Sir, Misato said
"Absolutely, Unless we defeat the angels then humanity has no future",Gendo said
"Ikari, Are you sure about this"
Gendo smiled
"Launch!"
The Eva then got launch through a pipe line to go outside to reach the Angel, While Sebastian was still on top
"Damn, It's windy up here", I said
==============================
The angel stopped Infront of a street and seconds later the Eva came out of a hole in the ground, Standing tall, With Shinji staring at the angel, While the angel is charging up a shot, With everything being sent back to the Nerv HQ screen to see the battle
"Shinji..Don't die", Misato thought
==============================
(🍞👍, The method is one of the most insane powers ever made, Like you can get a strong enough body to become bulletproof, Just from reading a method, I mean you do have to know all about the human body, But still)
