********************************************************************************************

Shinji Ikari sat in his dark room. It was Two'O'clock in the morning. He was sitting in a furnished oak chair in his room, in front of a mirror, staring blankly at himself. He had his hands neatly folded over his lap. He was hollding something. He was sliding his thumb back and forth across it's smooth surface, over and over. He seemed ot be in deep thought.
"I..hate this." He thought. "I hate..all of this. I hate Unit-01, I hate father, I hate Rei's calmness, I hate Asuka's annoying comments, I hate Misato's lies, I hate N.E.R.V, I hate all of it!!" His pace increased back and forth on the object, he seemed angered.

He scowled on the mirror. " You killed your only friend, you want to kill your other ones too?" His voice echoed in his head. "It wasn't my fault...It...it...was my fault..." Shinji stammered to himself. " It was my fault." He said outloud. "I hate myself. I hate myself. I hate myself! I HATE MYSELF!!!" He held the object to his neck. "But.." he thought " I can stop all the pain...I can stop myself from hurting others..I can save myself from killing another..." The object was a small pocket knife. Kaji had given it to him on his birthday. He thanked him silently for the gift wich would bring his death...What he was waiting for.

He slowly closed his eyes and pressed the blade against his neck, thinking for a moment. Asuka, stumbled gently around the corner form her trip to the bathroom. 'What the hell?' she thought. Only Shinji's back was visible to Asuka.'What is he doing?'

Asuka's eyes widened. She caught a glimpse of the blade. "Shinji!" It slpped out between her lips. Shinji spun around still holding the blade to his neck. His eyes were hallow and wide with fear. "A-Asuka?.." he whispered. "Unta- Baka!!" She covered her mouth with her hands in shock. She walked over to him and took the blade easily from his hand. Shinji looked up at her. Asuka was at a loss of words. " I don't want you getting your blood all over Kaji's expesive blade he bought for you, baka!" she screame at him. He was going to commit suicide and she screams at him. Smart Asuka. " I'm the one that should get my blood on it.." She whispered holding it over her throat. Shinji grabbed her wrist. "NO!" Shinji twisted the knife out of her hand and carelessly tossed it onto the carpet.

Shinji accidently ahoved Asuka sailing into the floor. She stared up at him. ".." She got up and quickly ran out of the room. Shinji heard her door slam. And for the first time, Shinji heard Asuka cry. Soft muffles of tears were heard form her room. Shinji stared at the knife with disgust. He stepped on it bending the blade into the carpet. "Damn myself. I'm scum."
For the rest of the night Shinji sat in front of Asuka's door. He was afraid to face her in the morning. But he still wold give his life for an escape from the truth. And without Asuka, he almost did.

The End, Hopefully not for Shinji and Asuka.
