A/N: This is the string puller, master of deception, lies and sunshine. Kidding. Sort of. I recently watched all of the Evangelion series and I have become interested in the extremely in depth character development and I wanted to try and do my own story for it.

Some people may want to hurt me for this but there will be no Shinji in this story, but I will cross it with Naruto. I wanted to try this for quite some time but rest assured this will not be some little boy happy go lucky Naruto. Where would Evangelion series be without its angsty lead. Naruto will be messed up too but he will act a little differently. NARUTO WILL BE REFERED TO AS SHINJI. I shouldn't have to clear that up if I was a confident writer but this is my first fanfic so I'm not that confident. This is the only info I will give you. Why he is named such will be explained later. So no worries. This is mainly evangelion, but I want to post it under Naruto because I want a larger audience, selfish I know…

But its not like I give a shit what you think.

Kidding... Please don't leave!

Without further ado…

I don't own Naruto or the Almighty and expansive (absurdly so) Evangelion series.

Now without further ado…

The teaser…

Prologue: A Premonition of Power.

Roaring noises filled his ears as he lay, near dead, on the ground, his blue eyes staring emotionlessly into space. His face, which seemed to be healing at a remarkable speed from the various cuts and bruises on it, lay completely blank despite the noise and activity around him. His mouth moved continuously forming the same words over and over again.

I killed him…

As he lay dying, he vaguely noticed shapes surrounding him. People were here. He ignored it in favor of wallowing in his self-imposed comatose state. He couldn't understand what they were saying anyway.

"Is this him?"

"Yes, he is the one the Dead Sea scrolls mention, Das RotDämon."

"We should take him before Seele…"

"No they would kill him without thought. He could be a powerful ally in the future."

"I see…what of the other?"

"...Leave him. He will only cause trouble."

"But we would not want the Gefledert Schlange to be taken by them either. After all, they are the same coin, only different sides."

"…"

"It could mean all the difference…"

"Very well but we must move, now."

Naruto felt himself lifted off the ground, before he black out, one last word floated through his consciousness, bringing with it a void of white to cover his pain.

'Sakura…'

4000 miles away and 5 years in the future a teenage boy woke up in a cold sweat with a hoarse shout, his hand outstretched as if grasping for something. He sat still for a few minutes until his mind settled and he understood that what he saw was all just a dream. He sighed and fingered the jewel that hung from his neck, before cursing violently and shaking his thoughts out of the past. He got up slowly and moved towards the dresser in the corner of his small room, pulling out the drawers and rooting through them for his clothes. He glanced at the clock on his far wall and grimaced. It read 8:05; he was definitely not going to make it on time to his school . He shrugged and continued to get ready at the same pace as before.

After all he didn't really care.

He opened his door and entered his apartment's kitchen, quickly opening his morning meal of instant ramen and putting the water to boil. As he stared of into space he began to think about his dream.

He remembered that day because it was practically the day he was born. The day he was given his name, Ikari Shinji, by that old man. He remembered only his life after that day. He looked to the kettle and saw the steam coming from it. He quickly picked it up and with a visible grimace he turned off the flame. He never liked being around fire. Pouring the water slowly he glanced at the clock again. 8:25 this time. He shrugged and leaned back against his kitchen counter.

He blew on his meal briefly before muttering a quick, itadakimasu, bringing the chopsticks to his mouth as he did so. He chewed slowly and thought back to the part of his dream, which had most interested him.

'Who is Sakura?'

A/N: HAHAHAHAHA. Face the ultimate technique cliffhanger no jutsu. Kidding.

Sort of.

Well I'm guessing that everyone's rushing to translate what I called Naruto so I'll give you a break it roughly means The Red Demon.

Original, huh? Whatever, it fits. The other I have a vow of silence on. If you guess the answer I'll give you a million bucks.

Just let me find my deer caller…

Well Pm or review with any questions or comments.

Please…I need sustenance. Heh heh. twitch
