Disclaimers: First of all I don't own Neon genesis evangelion and that makes me sad. Second of all this is a self insert story so if you're not a fan well you've been warned.
Chapter 1: Prologue
"Ugh my head is killing me" I exclaim. I slowly begin to open my eyes and see that I'm...in the middle of the city? I begin to pick myself up off the ground but am knocked back down by some sort of tremor.
I pick myself again and begin to look around the city, it seems to be abandoned. I feel another tremor. What the hell keeps doing that? I mentally ponder. I hear helicopters overhead. My gaze follows the choppers until I see something that makes my eyes go wide with terror.
A giant green and grey humanoid...thing, it's surprisingly familiar looking. Suddenly the wheels in my brain clicked, this thing is from Neon genesis evangelion. Oh god of all the anime why did it have to be this one, suddenly another tremor interrupts my train of thought. I can't just sit here feeling sorry for myself, I have bigger problems right now like how the hell I'm going to get out of here.
I rack my brain trying to think of how to get away from the angel. "AH HA!" I exclaim. Shinji's probably still in the city, if I can just find him and hitch a ride with Misato I'll be home free.
I begin to scan the area, and spot a kid near a payphone. Brown hair, White shirt, black pants, depressed look on his face, that's Shinji all right.
I run up to him, he seems surprised that someone other than him would be in the middle of the city. Before either of us can say anything a helicopter slams into the building we're next to, and after that the angel comes out of nowhere and stomps on it. Both me and Shinji were in the middle of picking ourselves up off the ground when a blue car comes speeding in.
"Sorry I'm late-wait a minute who's this with you...oh never mind just get in NOW!" Both Shinji and I hop into the car without hesitation. "So Shinji who's your friend?" Misato asks casually. "I've never seen him before until a few minutes ago." Shinji replies.
"You do realize I can talk right?" I reply a bit annoyed that they just ignored me completely. "Hey don't get snippy with me I just saved your ass." Misato states, though you can't tell if she's just messing with you or not.
"Anyway..." I introduce myself to the two in the front seats. "Hello" Shinji replies in his usual nervous way. "Nice to meet ya!" Misato cheerfully says. "So why were you in the middle of the city anyway?" Misato inquires. "Well I know this is going to sound strange but honestly I don't remember anything prior to waking up in the middle of the city except my name." I lie. I decided that faking amnesia would be my best option, I don't really think anyone here would react well to being told they were anime characters.
"Sorry to hear that." Shinji says. "Yeah that must be pretty rough, but I'm sure you'll regain your memory sooner or later." Misato says in her usual cheerful way. "Thanks guys." you sincerely thank them. Oh I just realized that you don't even know our names. Misato says.
After Shinji and Misato introduced themselves the car ride got pretty boring, since they basically just talked amongst themselves almost as if they completely forgot about you, and since you've already heard all of this before you just stared out the window.
After a while the car comes to a stop, "We'll have to go on foot from here." Misato states. True to the anime Misato has no idea where she's going. "Are we lost?" Shinji asks. "Hey I'm new here." Misato replies. After the fourth or fifth dead end my mind began to wonder. Huh I never noticed it until now but I'm eye to eye with Shinji, which is weird considering your eighteen. Come to think of it but I only come up to Misato's chest...which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Dirty thoughts aside there's only two explanations I can think of 1. Both Misato and Shinji are taller than what the anime depicted or 2. Whatever brought me here also shrunk me into a fourteen year old.
I was so lost in my thoughts I didn't even notice the person sneaking up behind me until they had a handkerchief laced with chloroform pushed against my face. The last thing I hear before I black out is Misato yelling "What the hell Ritsuko?!" .
So yeah this is my first time doing this, it's definitely not a masterpiece but I hope it was enjoyable enough. If you have some ideas as to how I could do better well feel free to post a review.
