Anyways this is gonna be a totally different crossover fic. Starting in an AU actually. Alrightay! Lets get this show on the road =] hope you enjoy! X3
Time... whatever happens, the outcome still ends the same. Whether you try to change the past, or knowing the future, eventually it shall hit its climax no matter how far you stray away from the path.
However...
Time is limited to the boundary you are in. What about the choices that could have happened? Or the result that could have been?
Where do they all go?
Of course there will be different outcomes and events in time. However these do not meet. Ever. Why? Think of it as a tree, slowly growing as new branches extend out to the world, never touching one another for contact may end up destroying the weaker.
The many outcome and choices will continue to grow as time progress, but what shall happen to them in the end?
This is the story of a boy, one who shall rise up to the heavens and become a legend!
Kamen Rider EVA
Chapter 1: Angel in Blue
It was another normal day for Shinji Ikari. He did the usual, wake up from bed, made breakfast for himself and his uncle, Kaji Ryoji. Technically speaking they weren't related in any way, but after the death of Shinji's parents Kaji felt it was his responsibility to look after his co worker and friend's son. After the morning chores he would walk off to school. Yep, a normal day indeed, and he enjoyed that.
"Hey Shinji!" a voiced yelled from a distance. Shinji took off his earphone and look to see his two best friend, Toji Suzahara and Kensuke Aida running toward him. The three had been friends since middle school. Back then Toji had mistakenly accused Shinji of injuring his little sister, and in anger had punched Shinji, while Kensuke recorded everything, knocking him out for at least a few hours. After waking up he was scolded by his little sister and was forced to apologize to him. Ever since that day the three had been the inseparable trio. Even till now they are known as the three stooges throughout all of the second year students in high school.
"Man ever thought of waiting for us?" Toji said as he caught up to him.
"Sorry guys, I didn't see you on the way and I didn't want to be late for school." Shinji said, trying to wiggle his way out of Toji's accusation.
"Sure Shinji... everybody in class knows Misato – sempai is never on time. Ever." Kensuke said.
"You can never be so sure Kensuke." Shinji said which was followed by a nervous laughter.
"Ah whatever, anyways I'm so excited to see the new transfer student!" Toji exclaimed, "I heard that it is a female student!"
"Oh yea! I heard about her to." Kensuke began, "heard she was moving here for some sort of business related stay, but man! I hope she's hot!"
Shinji just stared at the two as they blabbered on about the mysterious transfer student. 'a transfer student? I didn't hear anything about this...'
Shrugging it off, Shinji decided to just wait and see who this new girl was. He then continued his daily routine with his friends as they all walked to school together.
"Hurry we're late!" Shinji yelled as he ran toward the school gate along with Toji and Kensuke as well as a few remaining student trying to pass through the closing gate. Barely making it through, Shinji continued to rush through, ignoring his two friends as they stood near the door trying to catch their breath.
As Shinji turned a corner, he was then greeted by a figure of a blue haired girl. Before he was able to stop, momentum had taken its affect and bumped directly into her. The two tumbled down together, with Shinji on top of her. Everything had happened so fast that Shinji did not realize he was on top of this new foreign girl. When it did click he immediately jumped up and backed away from her a good five feet.
"I- I'm sorry!" Shinji said as he bowed his head to her.
"It's ok." The blue haired girl said as she got up. Without looking back she walked off ignoring Shinji as he was still bowing.
"Huh?" Looking up, Shinji had realized she left. "How weird... I have never seen her before... could she be the new transfer student?" realization had hit Shinji and a hue of red quickly covered his face.
'I had never seen a girl with blue hair before... she's so pretty...' He thought to himself but immediately shook off the thought.
That was then he noticed something shining on the ground. 'huh?' He came closer to examine closely what it was. 'could that girl have dropped this?' he thought as he picked it up. It was red, and round. That was all that could really be said about it.
"Hm.. I wonder what this is.." Shinji said to himself. "Oh no! I'm going to be late! Better hurry!"
"OW! What was that for Toji?" Shinji complained.
"That was for leaving us out there!" Toji yelled back at Shinji, he had slapped him in the back as a little payback for ditching Kensuke and him earlier.
"Not my fault you two were slow..." Shinji whined but was answered with another slap on the head, this time by Kensuke.
"Shut up! You wouldn't believe how horrible it was! Principle Fuyutski chased us all into the school.. he chased us man!"
Before Shinji could reply, the class representative, Hikari Haroki spoke first, "Everyone! Sit down! Class has started!"
Everyone then sat in their seats as their teacher, Misato Katsuragi, walked to the podium in front. She was then accompanied by a blue haired girl, which Shinji Immediately realize was the girl he had bumped into earlier that morning.
"Class! Sorry again that I'm late! But today is an exception! We have a new student today!" Misato said cheerfully, which captivated most of the male students in a drooling trance, but there wasn't as much as usual for today the majority of the class, both male and female, had turned their attention to their new fellow blue haired student. "This is our new transfer student. Can you please tell us all whats your name please?"
"My name is Ayanami, Rei." said the blue haired girl, "it is a pleasure to meet you all."
"Hey, do you think that's her real hair color?" whispered a girl behind Shinji, she was having a conversation with a guy sitting next to her.
"Who knows," the guy began, "but she sure is cute! Just look at her!"
"Oh shut up!" the other girl whispered.
"Alright now, Rei if you could please take a seat anywhere you'd like and we'll began homeroom." Misato said. Rei gave her a nod and silently walked to a seat in the far corner right by the window. Shinji couldn't help but stare at her as she walked by him. Quickly looking at him, Rei's crimson eyes had made contact with his, which started Shinji and he quickly looked away.
'wow..' Shinji thought in amazement. 'I didn't know she had red eyes..'
And so Shinji's mind was occupied with the mystery of the new girl, Rei Ayanami. He would see her silently walking around the halls on breaks and lunch. Once in a while he would also take quick glances at her during PE but didn't want to risk getting caught checking her out by Toji or else he would never hear the end of it.
As the day ended Shinji Ikari had found out one thing about Rei Ayanami. 'she seems to have that same boring expression on her face...' He would see her walk through the halls and would sometimes be stopped by guys believing they might have a chance with her, but was shot down in less then a second. Shinji had even noted the surprisingly fast pace of the guys at school for her locker had already filled up with many types of letters confessing to her. But of course she ignored that to, simply letting the letters fall onto the ground for the janitor to wipe it away later.
By the end of lunch break Rei Ayanami was no longer the cute, beautiful transfer student, but rather the Ice Queen due to her cold and straight forward ways. However, that didn't stop Shinji from trying to find out more about her.
"How can I talk to her... when I can't even gather the courage to do it?" Shinji said to himself as he walked home from school. "What is it about her that I am so curious about? Now that I think about it.. she actually looks pretty familiar.. I wonder where we could have met.."
Shinji was pondering that thought when he suddenly saw the blue haired girl walk right by him. Suddenly stopping, with his eyes bulging he slowly turned his head to her direction.
'Now's my chance...' Shinji thought to himself, but he wasn't able to bring himself to do it. 'Cmon Shinji.. pull yourself together! You must not run away! You must not run away! Go talk to her!'
"Ayanami-san!"Shinji shouted, as though out of instinct, but quickly shut his mouth, hoping she didn't hear him.
It was to late though. Stopping in her tracks, Rei Ayanami slowly turned around to face him. The two stared at each other for a while.
"Yes?" Rei finally said.
"Oh! Uh!" Shinji stammered, trying to find something to say. "I was wondering! How was your day Ayanami? Did you enjoy your new school?"
'Idiot.' Shinji thought as he laughed nervously. 'Now she is just gonna ignore me like all those other guys...'\
"It was adequate." Rei suddenly said, startling Shinji, "There were a few distractions around, especially with the male of this school but I would prefer this more then my previous school. It is also bigger as well Ikari-san."
A small smiled appeared on Shinji's face, "Well that's good to hear then Ayanami-san."
"You should head home soon, the sun is setting. It might be dangerous walking around in the dark." Rei had informed Shinji as though she had been living around the area since she was little. "Good bye, Ikari, Shinji. It was a pleasure speaking with you." with a small bow Rei had immediately turned and walked off.
"Ah.. ok." Shinji said with a hint of shock. "...She just left.." Shinji would have been lying if he had said he wasn't disappointed a bit. He was able to talk to Rei Ayanami, the new transfer student, but was abruptly ended by her as well. Leaving him a little bewildered at the encounter. Then he remembered the round, red orb he found after bumping into her.
"Ah! That's right! I need to give that back to her!" Shinji then quickly rushed after her. Hoping she wasn't to far away.
"Man, I should have just given this to her tomorrow." Shinji said as he was walking down the empty streets of Tokyo 3. He had chased after Rei hoping she had not gone far. He wanted to return the red orb to her and maybe be able to talk to her some more.
So much for that idea. Instead he had gotten lost and was now wondering around for a way back home. "Geez, I sure have bad luck." He said to himself, "I better hurry home to. It's getting really late. Kaji is probably hungry right now.. Ah he can find food in the fridge.. but what should I do? I obviously lost her.. maybe she'll appear out of nowhere? Naw..."
As Shinji continued to talk to himself he once again failed to notice the figure of Rei Ayanami once again walking by him. This time however she had stopped right in front of him.
"Ayanami-san!" Shinji said in surprised. "I was looking for you!"
"Why are you still out?" She said coldly. "I told you to head home."
"Uh.. well.. you dropped this when we bumped into each other this morning." Shinji said as he pulled out the red orb. Rei's eyes widened in shock as she looked at the orb and then quickly checked her pockets to confirm if what she thought was true.
She then pulled out another orb in her pocket, this one was red as well but it had a faint blue glow from the inside. "Yes, that does belong to me Ikari – san, so if you can please return it to me." she then extended her arm out with her palm wide open, waiting for him to give her the orb.
Shinji gulped once before replying, "of course Ayanami – san I was planning on returning it to you in the first place. Here you go."
Shinji then slowly extended his arm out until it was right above hers. He was ready to return it to her, however at the same time he felt like he shouldn't. 'what is going on? I know this isn't mine.. it belongs to Ayanami... so why does my hand refuse to let go of it?'
As Shinji fought his little inner battle, Rei's eyes slowly turned into a glare, "Ikari-san."
Snapping him back to reality Shinji replied, "Yes?"
"Move out." her words confused him, but he had no time to process what was happening as she instantly grabbed onto him, and with a hop they had jumped a few feet back from where they once stood.
Shinji's eyes were as wide as a baseball at what had happen, "wh-what was that?"
"Look." Rei said, her tone had went from monotone to one of alert. Shinji could tell Rei was serious, real serious.
Turning his head to where they were a second ago, his heart then skipped a beat, if not a few. Standing there was not just a crater, but also some weird monsters. At first they looked like humans, but if you examined all the details it was obvious that whatever it was gruesome. For one, their faces are missing, each and everyone one of them had a blank white face, but that wasn't all. Certain parts of the body seemed to be made of human flesh, while other parts seem to be made up of some substance that he could not tell. One of the feature that really made them stood out also was the little wings each and everyone one of them had on their backs.
"What are these things?" Shinji asked fear was apparent in his voice.
"They are called Cherubs. Nothing but spawns created by the Angels." Rei Answered.
"The Angels? What? I thought they were like, our guardian? Why would they do that?" Shinji asked frantically. He was confused, and didn't know what on Earth was happening.
"You'd be surprise by how wrong you are." Rei simply answered as she held out her red orb. "Ikari-san, go hide... and protect that core at all cost. The Angels must not attain it."
"What?" Shinji asked, "What about you?"
Rei never replied, instead she placed the orb on her waste and suddenly it had transformed into a belt. The belt itself was rectangular from the front. It had an impressive design of a tree on it. As it extended all the way around the belt and in the center was the orb.
"Henshin" Rei simply said, but that was the only word she needed to say.
AT CHARGE
In an instant the red orb on her belt exploded into a wave of orange liquid, as it all flew back onto her, covering her entire body in the orange liquid. Then blue armor suddenly appeared all over her body, tracing over her slim figure and cleavage, the armor seemed as though it was made for her, and just her only. The red orb that had exploded then appeared in on her chest, but it had enlarged itself making it as big as a fist. The final piece of armor to materialized was her face armor. It had smoothly wrapped around her whole head and a single eye appeared on it.
All Shinji could do was stare in absolute horror and amazement at his savior. It was none other then Rei Ayanami, the girl who he was so interested in that day had transformed right before his eyes into the blue armored cyclops standing there now protecting him from his would be killers. He was at a lost for words, he didn't know what to say at all of this.
"Ay-Ay-Ayanami..." He barely said, trying his best to reason things out, "What.. are you? Who are you?"
Rei slightly turned her head, "I am... Kamen Rider Zero." She then turned toward the oncoming enemies and charged forward.
'Kamen Rider... Zero?' Shinji repeated that name in his mind. 'what is a Kamen Rider Zero?'
All Shinji could do was ponder this new discovery as he watched Zero battle against the Cherubs. It seems she was having no difficulty at all fighting such a big group all by herself. One by one Zero took them down with ease. A cherub had appeared behind and went in for a hold, it was successful as another one tried to attack her, but was not able to complete their plan as a lance had emerged from her belt, impaling the attacker.
Lance of Longinus
Zero grabbed the lance and pulled it out of the dead Cherub, and then flipped her captor over and impaled him. Shinji watched in amazement as Zero practically danced along her foes with her lance, slashing down every one of them gracefully. She then stood victorious on the battlefield, as all the Cherub had slowly begun to dissolve away.
"Impressive," Came a voice, gathering both Shinji and Zero's attention. From the shadow emerged a man, he was at least six foot judging from his height. He wore black leather jeans with a chain hanging on his side and a regular t – shirt which was covered by a leather jacket. "So this is the power of Zero. Heh, my my, I sure found something interesting today."
"Who is that?" Shinji asked as he cautiously approached Rei.
"That is Sachiel, the third angel." Zero simply answered.
"Yours truly," Sachiel said as he took a bow, "but, I think its time for me to introduce you to another one of my brethren."
Realizing what Sachiel had meant, Zero immediately grabbed a hold of Shinji, but it was to late. A beam of light had emerged just from the side of them, she didn't have enough time to dodge it while holding Shinji. So choosing the best choice of action, she shielded him from the blast as a flash of light hit her back. A loud explosion could be heard from around the neighborhood as the beam impacted with Zero.
"Tch" came another voice from the direction of the blast, "I'm surprised that you were able to withstand my beam. You're a lot stronger then you look, Zero."
As the dust cleared from the scene of the explosion two figures can be seen, one was a shocked, and totally frightened, Shinji and the other was the now injured Rei. She was breathing heavily trying to catch her breath. Shinji looked at her then noticed the blood around her. She had been badly injured protecting him from that blast.
'No... what can I do..?' Shinji thought to himself. The two figure slowly walked toward the two as he now held Rei in his arms.
"Allow me to introduce myself as well." said the man, from the looks he seems pretty old. He had white hair which was covered by a hat and a coat to cover him from the cold night. He also held a cane, but it did not seem like he needed it. "I am Ramiel, the fifth angel."
"Well brother, what should we do with the boy and this Kamen Rider?" Sachiel asked, a big smirk appeared on his face as they drew closer to the two.
Shinji closed his eyes shut, hoping that when he opened his eyes everything he had seen would disappear and it all was just a part of one big nightmare, but that never happened.
"Ikari-san." Rei said. Shinji looked at her, amazed that she was still able to speak after taking such a hit. "Run now, be sure to watch over the core... I'll distract them for you."
"What no!" Shinji exclaimed as he tried to hold her back. Ramiel and Sachiel just simply looked at the spectacle, bemused at the situation. "I can't just leave you here Ayanami!"
"There is no other choice. Run Ikari!" Rei said as she pushed him aside, she then charged toward Ramiel, holding the Lance of Longinus in her hand. In a desperate attempt to attack, she thrust her lance forward but was then caught by Sachiel who had appeared beside her.
"Don't be foolish girl." He said as he yanked the Lance forward, dragging her along. He then grabbed her by the throat before she was able to fall onto the ground. "You can't defeat the both of us, you're to weak."
Rei still tried to however. In a desperate attempt, she tried kicking Sachiel in the knee. All that did however was agitate him even more. She was rewarded with a punch in her stomach, which knocked her unconcious. Sachiel then threw her onto the ground, never looking back once at her limp body.
"Sachiel, if you're going to get rid of her at least do it right." Ramiel said as he approached her body. "You gotta get rid of all the evidence my brother." He then held out his hand toward her and a bright ball of light began to form in front of it. It grew bigger and bigger, it was the same light that had injured Rei when Ramiel had showed himself.
As the events were laid out for him, Shinji could do nothing but stare at what was happening. Fear overwhelmed him, he was scared to death, he was afraid of dying. However, he was also afraid of losing Rei. 'I... I must not run away.. I must not run away... I can't run away now! Ayanami will die if I don't! But.. what can I do?' Shinji clenched his eyes and first down, hoping that an idea would come to his head if he did. That was when he felt what was in his hand, he opened his eyes with sudden realization and looked at it. It was the core he held. 'I can.. use this to help her..'
Coming to the sudden realization, Shinji slowly stood up, Which caught Sachiel's attention. "Oh? So you want to fight as well?"
"I have to admit, I'm scared out of my mind right now." Shinji began, his voice shakey. "I don't know whats going on, or who you two even are, but. I WILL NOT LET YOU KILL SOMEONE I KNOW!"
with that Shinji held the orb between his waste, and it then transformed itself into a belt. This caught the attention of both Sachiel and Ramiel as the two of them suddenly tried to rush toward him as fast as he could, but it was to late.
"HENSHIN!" Shinji exclaimed, and his world suddenly shook.
AT CHARGE
The orb emitted a purple hue around Shinji, as it slowly cracked bit by bit. It then exploded and once again the sea of orange liquid covered him. Purple armor slowly began to form around him, covering his whole entire body just like how it did to Rei. The core appeared onto his chest and his face helmet finished covering his body. The transformation finally ended as a horn appeared on his head.
The two stopped in their track as the new armored warrior in purple stood in front of the them. "I will not let you harm her," he began, "I swear on this body that I will save her no matter what!"
And so he charged toward the two, as the newly born, Kamen Rider Eva.
