~~ Spoilers For Ladder Eps. ~~

Isn't it strange, feels like I'm looking in the mirror

Rei Ayanami... the perfect being...

In endless Vats of LCL she floated, each just like the other, hallow shells created by a man named Gendo Ikari in hope of recreating the perfect being for the perfect ending to an imperfect humanity. She was Rei Ayanami, brought to life to be one of 'Them'. But who where they? Angels... Why are holy angel attaching us so aggressively.. if they are God's messengers why do they want to bring God's creation to a blood stained end?

What would people say....

Gendo Stood in central Dogma and watched his perfect creation...

Gendo: (lays one gloved hand on the glass) Soon will come the day in which you where created... the day you take me to Yui...

He watched her short hair float in the copper colored liquid, She was his creation, his master piece. She was prefect... She was Yui.

If only that knew that I was...

Shinji stood alone on the escalator on his way deep into the geo front for another round of Sim training when at the bottom Gendo and Rei stepped on, side by side. Shinji looked away as the passed.

Part of some gneiss plan

Gendo's eyes stayed glued on Shinji's face.

Gendo: All I do is hurt him... when your not here Yui... I don't know what to do.

Rei: Sir?

Gendo: It's nothing Rei.

Rei: Alright...

Born to be a Carbon copy man

Rei lowered her self into the chair just as Gendo approached.

Shinji watched from inside his Eva, watching Rei and Gendo smiling at
each other, the way Misato smiles at Kaji, the way Gendo used to smile at Yui, The way you smile at someone if you shared more then a bed... Shinji looked away...

Shinji: Father... Why...?


Gendo: I glad.

Rei: Thank you, I'll do my best sir.

Gendo:She perfect... utterly

there in a petrii dish,

Ritsuiko sat hunched over a microscope and a petrii dish with a pair of tweezers in her hand.

Ritsuiko: This is the answer I was looking for... She -IS- perfect... down to her copied biological map... Yui's map...

Late one night

(Flash back)

Nothing sat still that night... except Gendo who sat at his desk, hand to his face, squareish glasses reflecting the vid screens radiate light.
Yui had done it... 100% sync ratio... could this be possible, it had to be for her physical form was completely gone, she no longer needed it, she was one with the Eva. They had tried in vain for the last twelve hours to reconstruct her body. The LCL was drained and stored. Her DNA was still in there... Gendo had a faint twinkle of hope. Though they could never reconstruct her soul, they could try and copy her old body...

Then took a donors body, fertilized a human egg and so I say...

Gendo held the tiny hand of a young Rei, crimson eyes and azure hair. She was his pride, his true child. He had her now, he didn't need Shinji...

(end flash back)

I think I'm a clone now

Shinji Watched Rei steady eyes through the com screen. She seemed so relaxed in her Eva, like that where she belonged.

Asuka: Shinji-Baka! Snap out of it!

Shinji: Oh sorry...

There always two of me just hanging around

After the Sim Shinji approached Rei, she still smelt of LCL but then again, so did he.

Shinji: I saw you thanking with my father...

Rei: ....

Shinji: I was wondering if you could.. help -me- talk to him... I
mean...

Rei: ....

Shinji: You seem to know how to do it. You two where smiling at each

other and all...

Rei: He's your father, you should know.

She walked away

I think I'm a clone now

Rei entered Cartel Dogma, she looked into the glass and saw her self, and endless sea of Rei.

Rei: What am I?

Voice in Rei's head: You are Rei Ayanami

Rei: No... Rei Ayanami is a false identify with a fake soul.

VIRH*: Are you afarid that if she still existed that you won't?

Rei: No

VIRH: Are you sure, if she sill existed in a human body then you would
have never came to be, you would still be nothing.

Rei: I won't mind...

Because every chromosome is a hand-me-down

VIRH: You are her in ever respect...

Rei: No, I am Rei Ayanami...

VIRH: Yet at the same time you are Yui Ikari

Rei: No... I am myself... I am me...

VIRH: They who are they?

The Rei clones turn and look at Rei.

Look at the way we go out walking close together

Rei: They are me as well, They are copies of me. I am the true Rei
Ayanami

VIRH: But you not... your a copy just like them... you and them... are
the same. You used to be floating a in a vat just like they are now...
You are not the first Rei Ayanami...

I guess you could say, I'm really beside myself

Rei: No, I am the true Rei Ayanami! (She almost shouted which a talking
voice for any normal person)

VIRH: Why do you deny what you know to be true?

I still remember how it began

Rei: No... no... I am Rei Ayanami... (she picked up a stool)

VIRH: What are you doing...

Rei: I'm not his doll... (She swung the stool as hard as she could)

A shatter of glass, a splash of freed liquid, laughing in sync

They produced a carbon copy man

Maya: Sir, we have a problem in Central dogma.

Gendo: I'm on it...

Born in a science lad, late one night

Gendo: Rei...

Walks over the only dressed Rei who sat huddled in the corner crying
and he lays his hand on her shoulder

Rei: Don't touch me...

With out a mother or a father, just a test tube with a womb with a
view

Gendo: what?

I think I'm a clone now

Rei: I'm not Rei Ayanami... I'm not, neither are they... I want to die

now..

Gendo: You can not leave here yet, I still have a use for you, you will
stay in existence till I have no use for you...

There always two of me just hanging around

Rei looked around at the clones who lay on the floor in the puddle of
copper toned liquid.

Rei: I'm no your doll

Gendo: Yes Rei... you are

I think I'm a clone now, Cuse every chromosome is a hand-me-down I
think I'm a clone now

Rei shuttered under Gendo touch... She wanted to die.. to disappeared
forever

I can't stay at home while I'm out of town

Shinji walked through the halls of The Geo front, finally dressed and showered, ready to go meet up with Toji and Kensuke when a Rei lacking cover walked by. He didn't really pay any mind till he pasted her again, or another Rei should I say.

I think I'm a clone now

Shinji: Wait a minute...

He looks back

Shinji: What going on...

Cuse every pair of genes is a hand-me-down

Rei clone: Shinji...

Shinji: Huh... Ayanami?

Rei Clone: call me Yui...

She smiled warmly

Signing autograph for my fans

Shinji: What going on here? Your not Yui!

He turned around to face another Rei clone

Come and meet the carbon copy man

Rei clone #2: Yes, I am... I am Yui Ikari..

Living in stereo, is alright!

Shinji: Your not my mother! No! Get away!

He took off running, a flock of Rei's following him

Shinji: Go away, your not my mother! You not my mother! YOUR NOT MY MOTHER!

I can be my own best friend, and I can send myself for pizza

The Rei clones followed.

Rei clones: Wait Ikari-kun.

So I say, I think I'm a clone now, Another one of me is always hanging around, I think I'm a clone now, cuse every chromosome is a hand-me-down, I think I'm a clone now

Shinji: Stay way from me!

Shinji ran into a wall, he was trapped.

Shinji: HELP ME!! HELP ME! SOME BODY!! Stay away... your not my mother!

I've been on Oprha Winfriy, I'm world renowned

Gendo: It's to late Shinji... (whispered as he holds the clothed
Ayanami in his arms, blood dripping from her chest, a blood
covered glass shard in her tightly closed hands)

Rei: X_X

VIRH: You got what you wished for... Rei... you ran away... just like
Ikari-kun

I think I'm a clone now, Every pair of genes is a hand me down

Shinji: FATHER! HELP ME!

He could see Gendo over the head of the Rei clones

Gendo: Good bye, Shinji...

I think I'm a clone now, That's my genetic twin hanging around

Shinji watched horrified as the Rei clones took hold of him and almost instantly he felt her being slipping away

Shinji: FATHER!!

Gendo: Say hello to Yui, Shinji...

Shinji: FATHER!!

I think I'm a clone now

Yui: Come now Shinji...

A warm hand touched his face... he opened her tightly closed eyes

Shinji: Mother...

Yui: You don't have to be there anymore...

Gendo watched his son slip from existence as well. And it was Yui that
killed him...

Gendo: Rei... Yui... Shinji...

He couldn't admit it out loud but he had made a grave mistake...
