Evangelion: Infinity Paradox
Chapter one: Alpha And Omega
Something strange was happening. He could feel the thoughts and emotions of multiple beings surrounding him, yet , try as he may he couldn't see them. He was the only one with a recognizable form. Everything else around him was ethereal, there, yet strangely not there. More thoughts joined the calamity of the multitudes already in limbo. they were also a mystery to the young man, as these felt the same as the ones already in limbo, but were also slightly different.
He felt everyone, he understood them. There was piece and harmony everywhere.
But the young man was unhappy, all he could feel was his own pain, anger, grief, and sadness. ' why am I so unhappy here?' he thought 'why does this feel wrong? What do I need to do to be happy!'" the last part he cried out, pouring his heart and soul into the question. "All you have to do is choose." The young man spun around to see a woman in her late twenties with brown hair and brown eyes looking at him. It was Yui Ikari.
"Mom?' he asked, slightly shocked.
"Yes Shinji it's me."
"Why are you here?"
" I'm here to help you choose, to guide you in way."
" Guide me?" He inquired
" Yes, to help you sort out what your true emotions and feelings are. To help you understand the choice you will be making."
Shinji was quiet as he considered what his mother had said.
" What am I choosing?" he finally asked,
"Your happiness." She said simply.
" But…" he said slowly " What about all the people in here, What about their happiness? I cant be selfish and deny theirs for my own can I?"
" Yes you can. You and you alone have been give the power to choose, and so you must choose."
" Choose what?" asked a confused Shinji
" The fate of humanity." Said his mother.
Shinji pondered what she had told him. He knew he wasn't happy here, or in the world he had come from. He also knew however that he was happier there than he was here, and that so was most of humanity. After a considerably amount of time Shinji had finally decided,
" I wish to return to the world…" he said with conviction he had never felt before " AS it was before this."
" Are you sure?" she asked him " Are you absolutely sure."
" I am." Shinji said
" In fact I've never been so sure in my life."
Yui looked down at her son and smiled. It was a happy smile, a smile that told him he had made the right choice.
" Then… It will be done"
She walked forward and hugged her son. As she did so a faint light appeared on the horizon, growing steadily brighter until it blotted out everything in a blast of pure white.
" Goodbye my son."
"Good by mother."
Yui took one last look at shinji
" If you need me, you know where to find me. Ill always be with you, and Unit 01. I love you Shinji."
Then the light grew to a blinding white and Shinji felt no more.
Shinji woke up on beach in his plug suit. At first he thought he was dead, but then however he realized he couldn't be dead due to large amounts pain pulsing through his head. He sat up quickly and regretted it almost immediately, the world started to spin and he leaned over on his side and vomited. He sat up again this time more slowly, conscious of his throbbing head and looked around. He spotted something red a little ways down the beach.
Realizing who it was he jumped up, completely disregarding his headache, and practically sprinted down the beach.
he skidded to a halt beside his friend and fellow pilot Asuka Langley Sohryu.
" Asuka, Asuka are you with me? Wake up." She didn't respond so he checked her pulse, it was strong as ever. ' ok so she's alive' he thought to himself. He looked back the way he came and saw the skyline of Tokyo 3. The city was just as it looked before the attack was made on Nerve by SEELE. ' Well if Tokyo 3 is still there then the hospital must be to.' he looked back down at Asuka, "I'm going to have to carry her" he muttered to himself.
Shinji scooped her gently in his arms and began the long walk to the Nerv hospital. After about two hours of walking Shinji finally arrived at the Nerv hospital. He carried Asuka into the Emergency waiting area. Everyone in the ER gasped and froze in place when they saw him. After what felt like an hour Shinji spoke " She need medical attention." Every one unfroze and began to rush around. The nurses brought a gurney for her and Shinji set her down on it. The Orderlies then bustled off behind the ER doors. Shinji stood there for a moment looking at the doors, turned around and promptly passed out.
International Space Station 2400 hours
" Commander kiesman, sir you really need to look at this." said Lt. Commander Samantha Duress.
"What is it Sam?"
" I don't know, The Hubble 2 picked them about an hour ago. Looks like Black Holes sir."
" Let me take a look." the commander said, as he went onto the stations oberservatory. The commander looked at the black hole in question, then panned left and right, spotting more and more as he did. As he took one last look before coming down he spotted some thing strange. Before his very eyes space and time began to warp and wrap around it self. From out of no where another black hole appeared.
Out of the hole a metallic object appeared and began speeding toward earth at an incredible velocity. The black hole it emerged from shutting as quickly as it appeared. It's path would have impact earth in the Mojave dessert in the US. In about 3 hours. He took a Closer look and gasped. There abject had the Marine Corps emblem on it.
" Oh dear God." the Commander breathed.
" Sam get me NASA and Nerv Immediately"
" Sir? Are you…"
" Just do it!"
" Ok sir. NASA and Nerv on the horn sir."
" This is commander Kiesman, We have problem. A big problem."
