Evangelion/Naruto X-Over
I do not own Evangelion and Naruto
Sasuke Uchiha the Third Child and Shinji Ikari of the Hidden Village of the Leaves.
Deep within Nerv Headquarters at the eva cage, Commander Ikari is standing at the podium above Eva Unit-01 starring coldly at Misato waiting an explanation but he managed to hide his shock from the intense stare from Sasuke.
"This is unexpected. I may have to alter my plans if the angel is successfully destroyed." Gendo thought.
"Ummm, I did exactly as ordered. I found no other child in the area I am expected to pick up Pilot Ikari. I assumed that Shinji refused to come so, ummm, an replacement must've arrived instead." Misato stammered as she explained.
"I did not ordered an replacement." Gendo thought.
The Commander turned to Sasuke, also with many screens on his right, Sasuke's stern face revealed on it as he is facing the Commander.
"Pilot, identify yourself." Gendo ordered.
"I'm Sasuke Uchiha. I've been sent here on short notice." Sasuke answered carefully.
"Very well, we're moving out." Gendo responded.
"Moving out!? But Unit-00 is still in cryostasis!" Misato protests, then she gasped. "Wait a minute! You're going to use Unit-01!?" She asked.
"There's no other way." Ritsuko responded.
"Now wait! Rei can't do it again can she? We don't have a pilot!" Misato protests.
"We just received one, so we think." Ritsuko countered calmly.
"You're serious." Misato commented.
Ritsuko turned to Sasuke.
"Sasuke Uchiha." Ritusko addresed, Sasuke turned to face Ritsuko. "You will pilot it." She declared.
"But even Rei Ayanami took seven months to synchronise with her eva. It's impossible for him to do it. He just got here!" Misato protests.
"He just has to sit in the seat. We don't expect more than that." Ritsuko justifies.
"But..." Misato attempts to counter.
"Listen, defeating that angel is our ultimate priority. If we have someone who has a chance to synchronise with an eva, then we got to risk it. You do understand that do you Captain Katsuragi?" Ritsuko imposes.
"Yes maan." Misato answered.
"This is why I was sent here isn't it?" Sasuke demanded.
"Correct." Gendo answered.
"Then go find another puppet, I won't be your pawn and I got my own plans." Sasuke answered defiantly.
Then the room shuddered as the ground above as the angel forces it's way beneath the surface.
"It's close. It must sense us." Gendo taunts.
The room shudders again under another blast from the angel.
"Sasuke, we don't have much time!" Ritsuko urged.
Sasuke turned to face Misato with a defiant look.
"Get inside." Misato ordered.
"Is this why I've been place here!? Naruto!" Sasuke thought as he was clenching his fists and snarling.
"Why did you come here Sasuke? What got you here?" Misato interrogates.
--Flash Back--
At the resting area above the academy, Kakashi was sitting on the rail asking his students who were Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke to introduce themselves and he gave an example which revealed very little information about himself. Then Naruto introduced himself and he described his enjoyment of ramen and dislikes the time to wait before his ramen was ready and boasted about his dream in becoming the greatest Hokage so he'll be treated with respect. Then Sakura only can give a flirty look and a school girl scream at Sasuke when she attempted to describe what she likes, her hobbies and dream for the future. But she barked out Naruto when she was asked of what she hated which Naruto only dropped his jaw.
"Girls her age are more interested in boys than in ninja training." Kakashi thought.
Sakura only giggled as she looked at Sasuke.
"Last one." Kakashi called.
"My name is Sasuke Uchiha. I hate a lot of things and I don't particularly like anything. What I have is not a dream because I will make it reality, I'm going to restore my clan and destroy a certain someone." Sasuke answered.
His answer caused Naruto to shudder as if he was threatened and Sakura and Kakashi to stare at him.
"Good, you're each unique and your own ideas. We'll have our first mission tomorrow." Kakashi announced.
--End of Flash Back--
"I, I am to restore my clan and overcome my brother, I'll get stronger until I succeed him." Sasuke carefully answered, but returned a defiant look at Gendo.
"Fuyutsuki!" Gendo called. A screen changed from Sasuke to Fuyutsuki who's in the commend centre of Nerv.
"Sir." Fuyutsuki answered.
"Wake up Rei." Gendo ordered.
"Can we use her?" Fuyutsuki questioned.
"She's not dead yet." Gendo responded.
"Understood." Fuyutsuki complied. Then the screen went blank.
"Rei." Gendo called.
"Yes." Rei answered.
"Our spare is unusable, you'll do it again." Gendo ordered.
"Yes sir." Rei complied.
"Reconfigure Unit-01 system for Rei, then activate." Ritsuko ordered.
"Roger, calling off curve program and beginning activation." A female voice complied through the speakers.
Then a door opened and Sasuke turned to face what was emerging and saw a on-duty doctor with two nurses helping him pushing a hospital bed with a girl his age but with blue hair and red eyes, she was dressed in a white skin tight suit with a label "00" on it with bandages over her shoulders, one of her eye's patched with a bandage around her forehead, another bandage around her right arm with a feeder connected to a plasma pack linked to her other arm. The girl Sasuke concludes was Rei and she struggles to sit up under the pain. Sasuke stared at the Commander with hatred in his eyes and resisting the temptation of revealing his sharingan. Then the room shook more violently causing Rei to fall off the hospital bed and gasping in pain and Sasuke maintaining his balance.
"Look out!" Misato shouted as steel beams fall from above.
Sasuke reacted in time and quickly moved and evaded the falling beams. Then he rushed to Rei and examined her injuries and Rei gasped and struggled in pain. Then he also noticed that Rei was also bleeding on one of his hands.
"She's gonna pass out, she won't stand a chance against that angel." Sasuke thought.
--Falshback--
At the training area where Team 7 was being tested by Kakashi. Sadly they had all failed to retrieve the bells which was hanging on Kakashi's vest and Naruto was ended up being tied up on the post because he tried to eat the lunch by himself and Sasuke and Sakura were sitting in front of the other stumps in defeat and they're all hungry.
"Uh oh, stomachs growling huh? That's too bad." Kakashi taunts. "Oh by the way, about this exercise. Well I have decided I won't send any of you back to the academy." He continued.
Naruto's face brightens, thinking that he had passed.
"What? I passed? All I did faint and fall over, do you get points for that?" Sakura questioned.
Sasuke only snorted and Sakura and Naruto began to cheer.
"Then, then all three of us?" Naruto asked.
"Yes, all three of you are being dropped from the program permanently." Kakashi sneered.
Sakura, Naruto gasped in shock while Sasuke narrowed his eyes. Naruto began protesting while Kakashi was justifying his decision. Then Sasuke leaped up rushed towards Kakshi.
"Sasuke!" Sakura gasped.
But Kakashi easilly overpowered Sasuke and pinned him to the ground with his right foot on Sasuke's head and his left hand placing Sasuke's left arm in an armlock.
"You think it's all about you." Kakashi commented.
"Let go of Sasuke! You can't step on him like he's some bug!" Sakura shouted.
"You don't know what it means to be a ninja, you think it is a game huh?" Kakashi imposed.
Sakura and Naruto gasped in response.
"Why do you think we put you on squads? Did you consider that question for one moment?" Kakashi questioned.
--End of Flashback--
"Teamwork. She can't pilot and nobody else can. She's my teammate now." Sasuke thought. "Rest, I'll fight the angel." He assured Rei, then he turned to Ritsuko. "Very well, I'll pilot this evangelion, if all it requires me to sit in the seat then." Sasuke announced.
"Delay that order! Sasuke going to pilot." Ritsuko ordered. "Sasuke I'm afraid you cannot wear your bandanna while in the entry plug, you'll wear these instead, just place them on the temples." She continued as she was handing the small devices to Sasuke who looked at them with curiosity.
Sasuke reluctantly removed his scratched forehead protector and cautiously placed the devices as instructed and handed Misato his forehead protector and the technicians lead Sasuke to the entry plug.
The entry plug was then inserted into the evangelion and Misato and Ritsuko are in the command centre where Maya was inserting commands into the Magi computer and Commander Ikari and Sub-Commander Fuyutsuki were overseeing the operation. In the entry plug Sasuke noticed the light changing as the evangelion is activating and he felt the chakra in the eva was getting stronger.
"What's the source of this chakra? Can it be used? I'm already exhausted from my fight with Naruto." Sasuke thought knowing his chakra is low.
"Filling the entry plug." Maya via the overhead speaker announced.
Then he noticed an orange liquid was flooding the cockpit.
"Ritsuko, what's this liquid?" Sasuke questioned and the liquid was fiiling the entry plug.
"Don't worry, once your lungs are filled with LCL, your blood will be oxygenated directly. It's okay, you'll get used to it." Ritsuko assured.
Sasuke calmly released his breath and managed to breath the LCL with ease.
"Understood." Sasuke confirmed.
"Connection secondary contact. A10 Nerve connection normal." Maya announced as the lights changed again until Sasuke sees a clear front view from the cockpit."
"Configure the language logic interface." Ritsuko ordered.
"All preliminary contacts, performance nominal. Bidirectional circuits are open, synchronisation ratio at 35.8 percent." Maya reported.
"Amazing." Ritsuko observed as she reading the data on the screen.
"Harmonics seem to be normal. I don't see any disturbances." Maya observed.
"Let's do it!" Ritsuko announced.
"Begin launch sequence." Misato ordered.
Evangelion Unit-01 was released from its scaffolding and moved to the launchpad, beneath the launch tunnels.
"Launch path clear, all systems green." Maya confirmed.
"Evangelion ready for launch." Ritsuko announced.
"Understood." Misato acknowledged. "Can we really do this?" Misato asked the commander.
"Off course. Unless we defeat the angel, we have no future." Gendo answered.
"Ikari are you absolutely certain?" Fuyutsuki questioned.
Gendo grinned in response.
"Eva launch!" Misato ordered.
Immediately the evangelion was launched through an launch tunnel, as the evangelion was ascending Sasuke was withstanding the G forces without too much discomfort. Then the evangelion arrived at the surface inside the geofront right infront of the angel. Sasuke stared at the angel as it's red orb brightens.
"Must be a vital part of the angel." Sasuke thought.
"Sasuke don't get killed out there." Misato thought as she was holding tight Sasuke's forehead protector.
"Are you ready out there Sasuke?" Misato asked.
"Yes." Sasuke answered confidently.
"Final safety locks release! Evangelion Unit-01 move out!" Misato ordered.
The safety restraints on the evangelion are released and it slouched.
"Sasuke, just concentrate on walking for now." Ristsuko ordered.
Sasuke complied and after a moment Evangelion Unit 01 was not just walking, Sasuke began to experiment with running and evasive moves.
"He's walking! Now what is he doing!?" Ritsuko declared.
"Sasuke just walk!" Misato ordered.
"I'm getting the hang on this." Sasuke responded.
Then the angel advanced towards Unit-01 and lanced out an energy lance but Sasuke just managed to evade it, then the angel fired and energy blast, causing Unit-01 to blasted off its feat and landed into a building. Sasuke looked up and he now sees the angel moving towards him, he quickly activated his sharigan and recognised the angel's next move then Unit-01 stepped aside to the right, grabbed the angel's wrist and arm locked it with its left hand as Unit-01 turned pivots around to the angel's back and slammed the angel's face into the building with its right hand, then Unit-01 used it's right arm to grab the angel's right arm and placed it's right foot on the angel's back and pulled both of the angel's arms as it's pushing its right foot against the angel until two snaps were heard, then Unit-01 recoiled backwards to make some space between the angel and Unit-01.
"Sasuke's synch ratio is now at 58.2 percent!" Maya announced.
"What!? How?" Ritsuko demmanded.
"Good work Sasuke!" Misato complimented.
"I'm running out of chakra! I won't last long, I must finish it." Sasuke thought.
Sasuke pilots his evangelion towards the angel as it was turning to face Unit-01 again and Unit-01 landed an upper cut punch into the angel, sending it into the air. Then Unit-01 leaped into the air positioning it right beneath the angel in mid air, then Unit-01 placed its left hand on the angel's back and swung it's left leg and hits the angel's face, followed with Unit-01 spun towards the right loading it's left fist in a back-fist strike and landing it into the angel's face, causing it to fall towards the ground of the geofront and Unit-01 continued to roll and landed it's right fist in an upset punch into the angel's core and Unit-01 rolled again and swung its left leg in an axe-kick into angel's core, cracking it as the angel had hit the ground.
"Lion's barrage!" Sasuke invoked.
However, the combination that Sasuke unleashed onto the angel had caused Unit-01 sliding into the face of a nearby hill, lying on its front. However, the angel rose back onto its feet.
"Captain! The pilot's lifesigns are fluctuating!" Aoba shouted.
"No! Sasuke get up!" Misato ordered.
"I'm nearly out of chakra, I cannot continue..." Sasuke thought as he struggled to remain conscious. Then Sasuke felt a surge of energy but it's not from his curse seal. "The chakra, it's coming from the eva." He mumbled to himself.
"Sasuke's synch ratio has increased again! It's now at 92.4 percent!" Maya announced.
"Could it be? Berserker? No it can't be! Sasuke still piloting it. What's happening!?" Ritsuko spoke to herself.
"So you decided to work with me. Fine, I can live with that." Sasuke acknowledged.
Unit-01 got up in a crouching position then did a series of hand signs and placed its right hand on its left wrist followed by a surge of electrical energy gathering in its left hand.
"Right, lets finish it!" Sasuke shouted with a vicious grin.
Then Sasuke piloted Unit-01, running towards the angel with it's left charged arm which now looks like a lightning blade dragging on the ground forming a trench and its right hand moved to the it's left bicep supporting it. The angel then leaped towards Unit-01 and attempted to blocked its attack with an energy field.
"It's an AT field!" Ritsuko shouted.
"No, not now! As long as that field is up..." Said Misato.
"He can't get near that angel." Ritsuko followed.
But the AT was raised in vain as the attack struggled then broke through it.
"It broke through the AT field as if it wasn't there." Misato observed.
"The attack must've been strong enough to penetrate it." Ritsuko hypothesised.
"Chidori!" Sasuke invoked as Unit-01's lightning blade charge arm had pierced through the angel's core, shattering it and out of its back with blue blood and some residual electrical charge fading around Unit-01's left arm, then the angel and Unit-01 slumped onto the ground.
"The angel's signal has faded, its dead." Hyuga announced.
"Pilot's lifesigns are critical! He's lost consciousness!" Aoba announced.
"Send out the recovery team, hurry!" Ritsuko ordered.
"No, Sasuke!!" Misato cried out.
"This is not how I originally planned it." Gendo muttered.
At Konoha, Shinji Ikari had just arrived at the hidden village of the leaves with Kakashi without incident and Kakashi was carrying Naruto who was falling in and out of consciousness. Shinji was clueless of his surroundings but he did find it more peaceful than Tokyo-3. For the first time he was happy and a slight smile was on his face with fate intervening he was taken away from his father and out of his reach. Then he noticed a young lady in a red dress and pink hair with her forehead protector worn as a headband.
"Shinji, I'll need to take Naruto to the hospital." Kakashi announced and he turned to young lady. "Sakura, this is Shinji Ikari. Make him feel at home." He calmly ordered then he disappeared in a puff of smoke, startling Shinji.
"Strange, how did Shinji survive the wilderness outside the village. He doesn't appear to be trained at all." Sakura thought.
"Um, hi." Shinji greeted nervously.
"Well, I'm Sakura Haruno. But call me Sakura." Sakura pouted.
"Okay, well umm... Pretty awesome place." Shinji complimented.
"You have no idea do you? you just come here in suspicious circumstances for all I know you could be one of Orochimaru's guys come to, to, to..." Sukura struggled to continue.
"Uh, sorry." Shinji apologised.
"So what did Kakashi brought in!?" Shinji heard a booming voice and he turned to notice a middle aged man with long spiky white hair wearing a pale green gi, with a red vest and wooden sandles.
"Uh," Shinji stammered.
"Oh you look so depressing and I thought Naruto had managed to bring back Sasuke but I guess I'm wrong." The man interrupted. "Oh yeah, in case you don't know I'm Jiraiya, the legendary toad mountain sage!" He boasted.
"I'm Shinji Ikari." Shinji Responded.
"Don't tell me you spent your life locked up in a room? I wonder if you had a worse childhood than Naruto, well I better check on him farewell!" Jiraiya teased, then he leaped away with a twirling of wind following him.
"Uh. That's..." Shinji mumbled.
"Jiraiya, well he's one of the legendary sanin. Well if you're hungry I know a good place to eat." Sakura suggested.
After Sakura showed Shinji around Konoha and dined at Ichiraku Ramen Bar, they didn't spoke much and Shinji noticed that Sakura was distressed but he didn't feel ready to ask her yet. Kakashi which he happen to be reading his Makeout Paradise, had arrived just as Sakura and Shinji finished their meal.
"Ah there you are. Shinji the Hokage wants to see you." Kakashi announced.
"Um, okay, who's the Hokage?" Shinji asked.
"The Hokage is the leader of this village and the most powerful ninja, with equal status as the ruler of this country. Currently the Hokage is Tsunade who's the fifth to hold that title and she's a medical expert and a legendary sanin." Sakura explained.
"Don't worry she'll won't bite." Kakashi assured sarcastically, still reading his book.
Kakashi lead Shinji to the Hokage's tower and passed many guards until they arrived at the Hokage's office. Kakashi admitted Shinji in and followed him in. Then Shinji noticed a blonde middle aged woman who Shinji concluded is Tsunade who happen to be sleeping with her head on the desk, Kakashi cleared his throat and the Tsunade shot up her face.
"Oh, you must be Shinji Ikari. You had arrived in suspicious circumstances. You see we just had a ninja left the village." Tsunade explained.
"Sasuke." Shinji mumbled.
"Yes, Sasuke you see when Naruto fought him in attempt to return him back to the village but he disappeared without a trace and strangely you happened to appear right on time. However at least Orochimaru had lost his bet, but we have no idea where Sasuke went or where you come from or even how you come here." Tsunade explained with her eyes narrowing.
"It's possible that well, you know Jiraiya would've explained it." Kakashi carefully worded his suggestion.
"Yes it's possible, probably to preserve itself. Shinji you're not going to survive in this environment without proper training and your suspicious circumstances will paint a huge target on your back." Tsunade informed.
"But why? I'm just a kid and what makes this so important!?" Shinji argued.
"Shinji, it's not wise to argue with the Hokage." Kakashi warned.
"Sorry." Shinji apologised with his head bowed.
"This is what I'm talking about with attitude like that will get you killed. So I'm going to give a choice you can enter the academy to be trained as a ninja or I must put you in lock down under heavy guard of the ABNU black ops." Tsunade proposed.
"Shinji think carefully, life being a ninja won't be easy but it would provide you opportunities that you haven thought of encountering." Kakashi advised.
"Naruto, could I ended up like him?" Shinji asked.
"Naruto will be fine, he'll be discharged from the hospital tonight and rest at his apartment. I won't lie to you but that's not the worst that can happen to you." Tsunade sighed.
"Sasuke ran away, why? I can't run away, where can I go? I can get myself killed. I mustn't run away, I mustn't run away, I mustn't run away!" Shinji thought.
"We don't have all night Shinji so what do you choose." Kakashi asserted.
"Sasuke ran away did he?" Shinji asked.
"Yes he did." Kakashi answered.
"I'll do it, I'll go to the academy." Shinji announced.
"Good, your first class will be tomorrow morning and you'll meet your instructor then. You'll also be on an orphan's pension so you can get your needs. One more thing Shinji..." Tsunade announced.
Just outside the hospital, Naruto was just been discharged and Jiraiya had informed Naruto the news.
"What!? A roommate? That's cool!" Naruto boasted.
"I thought you'll like that, Tsunade is already waiting for us so come on, so while you recovering you may like to help him with his training." Jiraiya advised.
"No problems!" Naruto agreed.
"That kid, I hope he'll get Shinji to come around. Naruto is more likely to survive than Shinji at the moment." Jiraiya thought.
"So what's he like?" Naruto asked.
"Well not much is known about him except what that Fox inside of you brought him here and sent Sasuke wherever he comes from." Jiraiya answered.
"The Nine-Tailed Fox." Naruto thought.
Far from Konoha at a hideout, Orochimaru was very disappointed and frustrated he was expecting Sasuke to arrive for some time.
"What is Sasuke taking so long!?" Orochimaru shouted.
"Even if Sasuke had sustain significant injuries, he still would've arrived by now." Kabuto thought. "It's possible that he's died." Kabuto suggested.
Orochimaru returned a dangerous glare at Kabuto. "I better not learn that my elite Sound ninja had been sent in vain to retrieve Sasuke." He threatened.
"I can however investigate, for all I know he could be just recovering from his injuries and I'm the best to treat him." Kabuto offered.
"Go, and do not return until you have the something significant on Sasuke." Orochimaru ordered.
Back at Konoha in Tsunade's office Jiraiya and Naruto and just arrived.
"Shinji this is Naruto, he'll be your roommate." Tsunade announced.
Shinji gave a relieved look to notice that Naruto is standing again, Naruto gave a uncertain look.
"He likes ramen." Kakashi whispered in Shinji's ear.
"Uh, I'm entering the academy tomorrow." Shinji stammered.
"What happened to him?" Naruto thought. "Really that's cool. I bet they'll make a ninja out of you in no time. Hehehe." Naruto boasted.
"Right, why don't you take Shinji to your place. You still have the spare key don't you?" Kakashi suggested.
"Okay! let's go!" Naruto announced.
After walking down a few streets Shinji had noticed some hard stares towards Naruto even a few people threw an insult, but Naruto completely ignore it and Shinji was reminded the day his father had abandoned him.
"Um, why the people treat you like this?" Shinji asked.
"Well, they're like that my whole life but I did not know why until I had graduated. But I'm not going to cry about it, tried that before and they still won't change." Naruto answered.
"I see." Shinji mumbled.
Then Shinji arrived at his new home.
"Here we are. Welcome home!" Naruto announced as he unlocked and opened the door.
Shinji's eyes widened in shock to see the poor state the apartment was in. First there are empty instant ramen cups littered on the table with dirty dishes and a open carton of spoiled milk. Then he noticed the floor was gritty and the walls are patchy due to neglect and a foul stench.
"Your room will be the room where I store all my ninja gear. Just put your things there." Naruto explained.
"When's the last time you cleaned up?" Shinji moaned.
"Uh, I just been on a lot of missions so I haven't got around to it." Naruto justified with a foxy grin.
Shinji went into the spare room where there's a couch with some scrolls scattered on it and some papers across the floor. He also saw used kunai knives piled at a corner and shurikens in another corner. Shinji placed his pack on the couch and start sorting out its contents until he noticed a document that got his attention.
"Hey what you looking at?" Naruto questioned as he looked over Shinji's shoulder.
"Nothing!" Shinji lied.
"Hey, who's that? Is she your girl friend?" Naruto teased.
"It's Misato, she's a government agent I was supposed to meet when I arrived at Tokyo-3." Shinji embarrassedly explained.
"Whatever, besides you better not show that to the pervy sage, I mean Jiraiya. He'll may take it and stare at it all day. Besides when you master the Transformation Jutsu, I can teach you my famous jutsu!" Naruto beamed.
"Right." Shinji answered.
