Lost and Found
Chapter 1: Lost "Forever"
By Stalin
Two Years Before the Third Children's Arrival:
Walking down a quiet, dimly lit hallway Gendo Ikari found himself smiling at his own genius. Soon he would once again have what he had lost all too long ago. Seele had their own plans, but he had his own, and Seele's. He knew what they had planned, and what to do. It was all on one little disk, an ordinary looking black computer disk with the words "top secret" labeled on it. It was information he already knew, of course, but it would be useful to have it at hand.
All the Dead Sea Scrolls, Seele's history, members, and plans; his own plans were also to be found sealed within. No one, not another single person on Earth could read it either. With his own password protecting the vital information, no one could touch it. With it in his possession at all times he could easily access every little secret, every detail, of both plans.
His contacts had done their job well in retrieving the information. He would of course have to eliminate them soon to cover his tracks, but he really was surprised no one took notice of such an obvious transaction. "All the better they don't know where this is going", he mused. Nothing could spoil such detailed plans like an angry, knowledgeable person with revenge or horror on their minds. He could terminate these people too, however, if the need arose. No one was so important that they could not be dealt with.
Still, the ignorance of his employees, "superiors", and "allies" amazed Gendo. Either his manipulations did not bother them at all, or they simply failed to notice the way Gendo was taking them. "Nothing more than utter idiots, Gendo thought, "useful fools, but fools none the less. At least some can perform extra duties."
While these thoughts ran through Gendo's mind, he failed to notice the disks precarious position in his right coat pocket. One step later, he also failed to notice that it had fallen out, but he walked on. So, while Gendo's master plans ran about through his head, the invaluable disk fell through a vent, and fell towards places unknown.
By the time Gendo realized its absence, however, it was far too late to do anything about it. The disk was lost forever in the labyrinth of ducts that covered Nerv Headquarters. "No need to worry", Gendo thought, "no one would ever be looking for it, nor would anyone ever be crawling about in those tunnels." Once again, Gendo was a semi-state of peace. If only he could get back to Yui, his wife, sooner.
Although Gendo wished to meet Yui again, he knew only long, careful planning could prepare his plans for execution. Nothing would stand in his way, and nothing could change his plans, or so he thought. Little did he know that one insignificant error would spell his undoing at the hands of the most unlikely of people.
This being my first fanfic, and only the beginning, I am unsure of what people will think of it, or if the idea is original. Please review this story, if I get only negative reviews I will continue with the story and accept feedback from other authors. I will even consider any ideas they put forward. Unfortunately, I suffer from chronic laziness, so I might take a while to post another chapter. I am currently uncertain as to the length of this story, but I'll see where I can take it. I also have plenty of other ideas floating around in my head. If you like the idea behind the story, which is that Gendo's plans, along with Seele's, are discovered by, well, you can probably guess who, and are eventually foiled by that person. What genre this will be is uncertain, but feedback could help steer this in any direction, so please review it. Thank you for reading chapter one, and I hope you look forward to the next. I'll try to shorten the wait if necessary. Adios amigos...
