The Early Years
8 Years have passed since the horror of Second Impact. Misato Katsuragi, sole survivor of the ill-fated Katsuragi expedition team has seemingly overcome the psychological scars she had endured and is now attending college. Unbeknownst to her, someone has an interest in insuring her well- being..
Osaka College, 2008
Misato was positively bored. She had just spent 2 hours listening to a lecture on the intricacies of theoretical biomechanical limbs. ~Arghh.. If Ritsuko hadn't been doing 80% of my assignments I wouldn't have gone through that. Then again she's never left the school grounds for more than an hour before~
"At least I didn't have to take notes, but sitting there guarding my tape recorder was the most boring event in my life so far!!!"
"Really? Even more than that time you got stuck for 3 hours in the lecture hall elevator with the Headmistress of the Dorm?" Ritsuko whispered in Misato's ear.
"What!!! Don't do that Ritsuko!!! You scared half the life outta me!! And for your information that was the worst, not the most boring, experience of my life!!" Misato replied in a shout.
"You are so easy to tease, you know that?"
"Well whatever, at least I don't have any trouble finding boyfriends. You, Rits, have got to get laid one of these days."
"All the males on campus are pathetic hormone-driven sex fiends!!!! It's no wonder you have no trouble getting laid."
Misato simply hmmphed and threw the tape of the lecture at Ritsuko and grabbed a beer before disappearing behind the curtain to her alcove. ~How on earth does she keep getting the last word, it's bloody annoying!!! ~
Little did either of the room-mates know that their every move was being watched and every word listened to.
"Well, Miss Katsuragi certainly has a nice attitude, I guess this is going to be interesting for me." A rather roguish-looking, unshaven man said to himself.
The Next Day
Heavy rain was pouring down all over Osaka. A rather sodden Misato was drudging along carrying a plastic bag full of beer and condiments, continually swearing in a combination of her native Japanese and her 2 other languages, English and German.
"God damned weather!!! Why did it have to rain the day I had to go buy beer?" Misato whined to the sky as she slogged along.
"Well, maybe you would like a ride?" A male voice suggested from one of the passing cars.
Misato turned around and felt light-headed. The voice had belonged to a roguishly handsome man leaning his head out of his car. He was unshaven but it seemed to enhance his roguish looks.
"Thanks, this weather is crazy!!!"
"Anything for a beautiful lady like you."
Misato then belatedly realized that her clothes were sticking to her skin, leaving very little to the imagination of anyone looking. Then she looked up and saw that the man was discreetly looking at her as he drove in the direction of the college.
"How did you know I wanted to go to the college?"
" I've seen you going to and fro from the college often you know, if you're going to buy beer you should be a little more discreet."
" And as if you know anything about being discreet?" Misato challenged, "I could clearly see you were looking at me just then!!"
"And did you think I didn't notice you checking me out? And for your information I know that your full name is Misato Katsuragi and that you have a liver that would give a Scotsman an inferiority complex." The man said as he let Misato out of the car.
"If you're going to insult me at least let me know your name!" Misato shouted as the man drove off.
"If we meet again maybe I will tell you." he said, his voice fading as the car moved further and further away.
"What a nerve!!! I tell you Rits, that has got to be the rudest and indiscreet male I have ever met!!! The sheer nerve!!!" Misato said for the 50th time to Ritsuko who was getting thoroughly sick of it.
"Or is it that you have finally met a man who doesn't instantly chase after you blindly?"
With a shriek of frustration, Misato walked out fuming. ~She did it again!!! Damn it one of these days I'll get the last word!!!~
