Hey there. Here's a new fanfic story made by me. This time Evangelion! Yeah, Evangelion is a strange case for me. I do enjoy some stuff from it. But I'd be lying if the show doesn't weird me out. (And it goes without saying that it weirds out other people.) But the more I learn from the show, the more I understood it's point. But I start to see that people either refuse to understand, or just want to find reasons to bitch and moan. I thought of making a story to satisfy Eva fans and casual readers. I try to make this story both chilling and dark like the show, but also have some fun in the story like in the show as well. I try to also make this my kind of story. Plus an original character in this story. Yeah, expect those in my stories. (with some exceptions) But enough talk, time for the story.
Red Sea...
An island with two people. One with regular school clothes, the other with a red tight suit. The boy strangles the girl in the red suit. She responses by straddling his face. He cries. She looks and says...How disgusting...
This is how it ended, but this is how we start.
Another boy surfaces in the same island. He has spiky hair, but now it covers half of his face. He also has a small ponytail. He looks at the boy. He looks around and looks at the boy. He says, "You did this?"
The boy didn't respond.
Time past, and the one that surfaced killed the boy with his bare hands. Blood dripping from his knuckles. He looks at the body covered in blood. He then see's the sea moving. It then grows bigger and bigger. It then formed a hand. The one that surfaced saw it in fear and then was taken by the sea of red.
Episode 1: No End...
"Ah!"
A girl with sky blue hair and red eyes wakes up. Startled after an unusual dream. She see's her dark and messy room. She wonders if that dream meant anything. But once she gets back to sleep, it seems pointless. For now.
In 2000, there was an incident that literally changed the world. The year is now 2015, the world has been damaged by extra terrestrials codenamed Angels. The city of Tokyo has been rebuilt to Tokyo-3, and in that city, lies humanities last line of defense. Nerv, an organization that holds the ultimate weapon against the invading Angels, Evangelions, giant cyborg titans that protect humanity. The pilots are young children, chosen by fate.
Rei Ayanami. 14 years old. A student of a high school in the year 2015. Her background is mostly mysterious around others. She even acts the part. She is very emotionless, and very reserved. She doesn't have much friends either. However, there is one. A boy about her age. Shinji Ikari. He's almost just as reserved as Rei Ayanami, but he has friends of his own. He shows kindness to Rei.
Shinji notices Rei walk by. "Oh, hi Rei."
"Ikari." Rei didn't expect to see Shinji.
Shinji usually goes to school in a different route than Rei, so it's pretty unusual for him to see her this early. "I don't usually see you here in this area. Are you lost?"
Rei doesn't know how to respond to that. "Uh..."
Shinji just smiled and replied with sincerity. "Don't worry, I'll walk you to class. Come on."
Rei silently nods yes. Shinji leads the way as Rei carefully follows. They care for each other. Ever since they first led eyes on one another. He leads her to their school, as they meet a fellow classmate.
A red haired girl that is about the same age as them stands in their way as the school bell rings. "Stupid Shinji! Your late!"
Asuka Langely Soryu has been with Shinji and Rei for weeks and showed no respect to both of them. However Asuka has been tasked to live in the same apartment with Shinji. Shinji shows small signs of irritation. "I know I'm late! I just found Ayanami lost, so I decided to help her."
Asuka then sarcastically remarked "'Oh, so the ever so righteous Shinji wanted to help out the perfect child.' Give me a break!"
As they argue, Rei gets to her seat. She then looks at Shinji and Asuka bicker. She then thinks about her strange relationship with these two. She shown that she cares for Shinji, and Asuka can tend to irritate Rei. Time pass, and Rei remembers that dream. She would think it was something pointless, but the more she thought of it, the more she worries. She can actually recall seeing Shinji and Asuka dying in that dream. She doesn't know if it foreshadow anything or not. But ever since her time with Shinji, she started to worry for his well being. After school, Rei decided to walk with Shinji.
Shinji then notices her walking with him. "Uh, Rei? You know your apartment is over in that direction."
Rei starts to feel uneasy. "Ikari...um...can I walk with you?"
Shinji gets confused, because Rei never acted this way before. "Well...ok then." Despite it being a strange request coming from her, he didn't want to be rude to her. They walk through the city, and as Shinji see's his home, he stops so he can talk to Rei.
Rei notices Shinji stopping. "Ikari?"
Shinji tries to explain it without offending her. "Is there something wrong Rei? You can tell me."
Rei shows hesitation to that answer. "..."
"Come on Rei. You have been acting strange today. I like to know why."
Rei gets nervous, and she rarely gets nervous. "I...um..." But once she was going to say something, alert sirens are set off.
Helicopters are flying all over the sky, and people are panicking. Shinji already knows what this means. "An Angel is here?!" He then notices that people are running from the same direction. He then see's Rei running to a direction where Shinji is going anyway. Shinji and Rei goes to a limo that leads them to a large elevator that can hold vehicles. They go down and see the same buildings that they saw in the city, as they are shown upside down. As they continue to go down, they go to a pyramid looking base with a very steep looking pond close by. They go inside the base and they are sent to a room where they change their clothes to tight jump suits that are called plug suits. Rei is wearing a white plug suit, and Shinji wears a blue one with a white chest plate. Shinji was thinking of continuing their conversation before the emergency happened, but he knew she has to focus on their mission.
Meanwhile, a large room filled with people working on computers and there's a large screen that has visual on the ocean on the city on top. The only person standing is a blonde woman wearing glasses, with a white lab coat that signifies that she is a scientist. Then another woman with purple hair and a red attire shows up. "Ok, what are we dealing with?
The blonde woman scuffed. "Well we couldn't get the image of it yet."
The purple haired woman has her fingers on her chin, pondering. "Hm...so have we at least make out the shape of the Angel?
"That's the thing though. We couldn't make out if it's the 13th angel. It's DNA is still similar to the other angels, but it's patterns are unusual unlike the other Angels."
"Hm...'This is strange, an enemy we don't know about'"
Shinji and Rei walk to an elevator where Asuka from school is waiting. She is also wearing a plug suit, that is bright red. "Well, took you both long enough. So you two ready? I am." As she is trying her best to suffocate the two with her ego.
"Of course I am." Shinji replies with defiance in his tone. " Are you Rei?"
"Yes" Rei blankly answers.
The elevator sends them to 3 gigantic mechanical titans. One is a blue Cyclops like robot. The other is a purple giant with a horn similar to a unicorn. The last one is a red one with 4 small green eyes. They get to seats called entry plugs that gets them connected to the giants known as Evangelions. Rei gets inside Unit 00, the blue one. Shinji gets inside the purple one, Unit 01. And Asuka pilots Unit 02, the red one, that fits her red attire. They get covered in orange liquid called LCL, which is breathable to them. Then the visions of 3 of the pilots then see different colors all over. Then as the light show ends, they see what the Evangelion see's. They feel movement as the Eva's are moved to a wall, and then many doors up top of them opens.
The purple haired woman shows worry, but she knows this needs to be done. "You all ready?" The 3 responded, "Yes Ma'am!" "All right then, Evangelion, Launch!" As she gives the order, the Eva's catapults to their individual elevators. Asuka is showing confidence that she will out best her fellow pilots. Shinji is showing determination, knowing how he has been weak for awhile, he knows he has to do his best to protect everyone. And Rei, she just waits for her mission. She still remembers that dream, but she still knows what needs to be done.
The ocean then started to bubble up, a sign of something big is showing up. Then 3 large doors open on the ground which revealed a dark holes, but then the 3 Eva's rises up and makes it to the surface, and they rendezvous on the ocean sighting. Then next to them, more elevators give then a specific weapon. Unit 00 gets an Assault Rifle, Unit 01 gets a Gatling Gun, and Unit 02 gets a very big spear. "Careful guys, we still don't know if this is an angel or not."
"What do you mean Misato?" Shinji showing his confusion, but still focused on the target.
Asuka then scuffed. "I don't care what it is, it will still be considered a threat. So pay attention Stupid Shinji and let a real professional do her work!
"Come on Asuka! Catch me and Rei a break, will ya?" As Shinji starts to whine, Rei notices something.
"It's here..."
Both Asuka and Shinji then see's it. "Huh?" Then a short rumbling starts, and then large black hands immediately attacks them, but the three jumped out of the way just in time. Then the two hands then clenched at the ground and then dragged something in the water. Then a large human like beast comes out. It appears to be literally all black, with little detail on it and the feet area is covered with a black substance where the hands come from.
Shinji is slightly intimated by the beast. "What...is that thing? It sort of looks like an Eva..."
Asuka shows only slight intimidation. "Whatever it is, it's still an enemy. Come on!" She rushes to destroy it. Shinji shouts out to Asuka, "Wait! Asuka!" Which she ignores completely. "Take this!" She stabs the all black monster, but it didn't even flinch. "What?" She takes the spear out of the monster and jumps back. "That thing is tough."
Shinji shows worry for Asuka. "What are we gonna do?"
"I have an idea. Just sit back!" Asuka rushes in again. She throws the spear and stabs the black looking angel in the chest again, but then she brought her progressive knife coming out of the Eva's shoulders pads, then she drives the knife at the end of the spear and drives the spear literally through it. The black beast this time reacted on the fatal blow. "Got you!" Then Asuka notices her arm is stuck. "What the? Grrgh! Come on!"
Unit 02's hand is still inside the beasts chest. Then the black substances morph into hands and grabs Unit 02. "Asuka!" Rei starts shooting the unknown being, but with no effect.
The hands then carries Unit 02 upward, pulling her hand out of it's chest, but her arms are also trapped by the hands. Now the hands are now wrapped all over Unit 02, morphed into a rubber like substance. "Get your ugly mitts off of me!"
"Shinji! Get Asuka out of there! Shoot the arms!" Hollered Misato.
"Ok!" Shinji responds as he starts shooting his Gatling Gun, aiming at the arms of the substance grabbing Unit 02. Once the beast notices the gunfire, it then stares at Unit 01 and then throws Unit 02 straight at Unit 01.
Shinji and Asuka grunted harshly. Rei stood her ground and starts shooting her gun. The black beast then moved as smoothly and quickly as a snake, and moved around Unit 00. Rei then lost sight of the target.
Rei looks around. She keeps her calm face, but she is keeping her guard up. Then she hears Misato's voice that alerts her. "Rei! On your left!"
Rei gasps. Before she can react, the unknown life form attacks her. It starts to bite down on the rifle, and completely destroy it by one bite. "Rei use the Progressive Knife now!" Rei listened and her Unit 00's shoulder pads opens up a knife and she slashes at the beasts mouth. Both of them backed away. Unit 00 tries to stand up, as the black beast's mouth shows the scar Rei created for it. Then the scar disappears.
The monster stares at Rei. Rei then felt some sort of chill inside of her. She felt something she hasn't felt before, fear. She then starts to remember that dream she had. She froze up as Misato notices Rei not moving. "Rei! What's going on?! Rei!" The beast then stared face to face with Rei. Then it clenches it's hands into fists. "Rei look out!" The monster punches Unit 00 straight in the face. She gets sent to a building, then it falls on top of her. Misato stares in horror. "Rei...no..." One of the staff members named Maya responds, "Unit 00's link cable is broken! And the pilot is unconscious!" As soon as Shinji stood back up, he attacks the beast with his knife and the monster roared so loud it effected Asuka and the buildings.
"Gaaaaagh!" Asuka covered her ears as she yelled in pain. "What the hell is this thing?!"
The enemy then and tries to grab Shinji. Asuka then stands back up. "Misato, we're gonna need more better weapons!"
"They're currently on there way." Misato then launches another weapon. Asuka then notices something came out. A chainsaw like weapon that holds two saws instead of two. Asuka automatically smirked. The enemy then grabs Shinji and slams him down, then steps on his head. It roars on Shinji's face.
"Hey ugly!" The enemy turns it's head and notices Asuka running straight at it with a new weapon. "Time for a new face lift!" She swings the Duel Saw and then the enemy grabs the saws, causing it's hands to get sliced in half. Black blood then squirts everywhere. "Gah! What the hell is this?!" Then the monster charges at Asuka and bites down her neck. "YAAAAAAAAH!"
"ASUKA!" Shinji stands up and charges the enemy. "Let go of her!" He lounges at the enemy's back and starts to pummel it on the back with his fists clenched together. "Why! Won't! You! DIE?!" Unit 01 roared. Then the black life form tosses Shinji out. He lands on all 4's like a beast. Then the disembodied arm of the enemy starts to move, with an organic sound of the sliced arm moving. Then the arm turned to spikes. It then points at Shinji. "What are yo-" Then the spikes extends, piercing Shinji by the chest area. "Gargh!" He then coughed out blood.
"Shinji no!" Misato yells out. Ritsuko looks in amazement and horror.
"Impossible...It's able to single handlely take down the Evas..." Misato then grits her teeth.
"There's mental contamination on Unit 02's neck area!" Staff member Makoto reminds both Ritsuko and Misato. "So far we couldn't find any weakness."
Misato grits her teeth in anger. "No. That thing has to have a weakness..."
Shinji groans in pain. Tries to get out, but is unable to move an inch. Rei is still half conscious after the punch that knocked her out. She can barely hear Misato yelling and the hub turning on saying: "Unit 02 is disconnected" Rei looks at the image of Shinji in pain. "Ikari..." Then she see's Unit 01 still being stabbed by multiple spikes by the uncontrollable beast. Rei stands up and then she picks up her knife and rushes to monster hurting Shinji. She starts slashing the deformed arm spikes. The Shinji is free from the spikes, but he is too exhausted to stand up. "Ikari, leave this to me." The monster then tries to grab Rei with his disfigured arm. Rei runs out of range dodging the tentacle like arm. She jumps up the buildings and jumps up to attack from above. It attempts to attack Rei while she is in the air. She dodges the first 2 spikes, until one hits her chest and the other stabs her shoulder. "Hgh!" Then everyone see's Unit 00 hanging lifeless with the two spikes penetrated her.
Shinji looks in horror, as Asuka is having her face down in shame inside the turned off Unit 02. Misato yells out, "REI!"
Inside the Eva, Rei is half conscious. She was slipping into unconsciousness, until she see's an image of Shinji's face. That was then she immediately tries to move her Eva, but Unit 00 couldn't budge. "Kuh! No. I can't move. The AT-Field is low on power. I can't let Ikari die. Eva, I must move."
"Please!"
Unit 00 starts to move slowly and grabs the spikes on it. Ritsuko looks in confusion. "Wha-What is she?..."
Then Unit 00 pulls out the spike with great force as Unit 00 roars. Rei grits her teeth in pain, trying to ignore the pain. She then dashes downward toward the enemy. She dodges the incoming spikes and readies a giant punch straight to it's face. The enemy then attends to block it with it's remaining hand. Both hands collide. The force of the collision pushes all the debris away. Rei's AT-Field is now in full power and is giving every ounce of energy to her fist. Then the unknown monster's hand also split like the other one. Rei lands on her feet, and brings her knife and stabs the black life form, dead on the chest area. Everyone is in silence. They wonder if it really defeated this enemy they never fought before. Then both titans drop at the same time. Unit 00 turns off, while the monster liquefies. Rei see's the puddle that used to be the enemy. "Is it done?" Then she notices something is wrong. The LCL then started to turn black. "What is this? Hrmp!" The contaminated LCL is now starting to go into her lungs. Everything is beginning to black out. "Ikari..." Then there is nothing, but darkness.
"Captain! Unit 00 is suffering massive contamination!" Makoto yelled out.
"What?! Get her out of there! Now!" Misato alerts everyone to do their job as Shinji looks at the puddle becoming one with Unit 00.
"Rei?" Then he see's at his hub that, Unit 00 lost all connections. "REEEEIII!"
To be continued...
Well. I hope this satisfies some people. You know, comparing the Gundam fic and the Evangelion fic, I felt like doing the Eva one the most. And this is basically setting things up for those who watched Eva. For those who never watched the series, this basically is supposed to set up the world, not the characters. Establish the status quo you know? But don't worry, you want the characters back story better fleshed out? Your going to get it, next chapter.
