Garo Rebuild of Makai
ESKK: Finally chapter 2 well enjoy.
(Start Chapter 2)
Gendo stood in front of the council known as SEELE who were the benefactors for NERV. "Gendo do you know how much backlash NERV is getting thanks to the appearance of this Gold Knight?" SEELE 1 said as Gendo nodded.
"With his appearance our earlier investment has gone down the drain," SEELE 2 said before another spoke up.
"Add to the fact he is a member of that wretched order that has bother us for quite some time and has proficiency in dealing with the Angels its make NERV look bad," SEELE 3 said before SEELE 4 spoke up.
"Well Ikari I would like to see how you pull yourself out of this one," SEELE 4 said as Gendo nodded.
"I shall attempt to locate these Knights identities to make sure they don't interfere with the scenario and make sure said scenario continues as planned," Gendo said as SEELE understood.
"Very well we shall now discuss you budget request we thank you for your time," SEELE 1 said before they vanished.
"Yes after all mankind has no time left," Gendo said as he was alone in the darkness.
(Scene break Tokyo-3 high school)
A teacher was walking around the school at night as he was pissed. He was in to school girls and they all rejected him thinking he was some sort of pedophile and now here he was stuck after school at night because paperwork got too much. As he walked he soon heard a voice that sounded evil and demonic.
"So you wish to make your fantasies a reality?" came the voice as the teacher turned his head to the darkened hallway to see nothing.
"Who's there?" he asked creped out.
"Very well I shall make your fantasies a reality," a creature in the darkness said before going to the teacher making him scream as the monster entered his body as he screamed before he fell down. He then got back up with a sinister smirk on his face as he walked away clearly the Horror had taken control of his body now.
(Scene break)
It has been a week sense the Angel attack and Garo's hunt for the Horror as life seemed to return to normal as people didn't take notice to how monsters hid among them praying off them at night. Shinji was walking to school as he was dressed in his new school uniform which was a pair of slacks, sneakers, and a dress shirt as he kept his Sword hidden with magic in case he needed it. As he walked he made sure to keep his Makai Knight clothing in a bag to change into after school. As he walked he took notice to how life seemed to continue after the Angel attacked as he soon arrived at the school.
"Ok first things first we have to find the office," Zaruba said as Shinji nodded.
"I know," Shinji said before he entered the school grounds to find the office so he can get his schedule.
(Scene break)
"Okay, some of you might have already know, but we have a new transfer student." the teacher said as it's Shinji's cue to enter, as soon as he entered, the girls were surprised the new student is (in their eyes) handsome. "Why don't you introduce yourself?" the teacher asked him.
"I'm Shinji Ikari. Hope we get along." Shinji said as politely as he did then did a bow, he then noticed looks on all the girls.
'Wow, popular already.' Zaruba said telepathically, Shinji also noticed some jealous looks on the guys.
"Why don't you take a seat over there?" the teacher said pointing towards the way back near the window, which Shinji did. "Alright, let's now go to 2nd Impact." Shinji could've sworn he heard some groans.
'I guess, all the teacher was talking about was 2nd Impact.' Zaruba said to him.
'Seriously, I've heard that teachers in school talks about math, English, etc. through 2nd Impact. Now that I see it's true, maybe I should talk to the principle about that.' Shinji said to the Madogu.
'Amen brother,' Zaruba said as class drowned on.
(Later)
It was break as Shinji was enjoying his snack which was a pork sandwich as he overheard some of the students talking.
"I heard one of the teachers has a school girl fetish and tried to flirt with his female students," one said as Shinji chuckled at that not at the fact there could be a pedophile but at the fact those girls were even talking about it.
"Yeah but no one knows who he is and recently one of the teachers has been acting strangely," another said as Shinji was interested.
"Strangely how?" the third asked as the girls began to explain.
"See rumor has it he had been asking to see his students after class to talk about their grades and after some words you hear a scream before it all goes silent," she said as Shinji was now interested.
'Think it could be a horror?' Zaruba asked as Shinji hadn't gotten any orders yet.
'I'm not sure I'll ask Watchdog about it,' Shinji said before he finished his meal and headed back to class.
(Later)
Shinji was in the bathroom after school as he was now wearing his zip up sleeveless shirt which has shoulder pads on it that was hidden by the coat and on his arms were arm bands that went up to his elbows meaning his coat had hidden them. Once Shinji got his coat on he left before heading straight to Watchdog so he can see about an assignment.
'We better hurry before nightfall because if we don't we might miss the Horror,' Zaruba said through the telepathic link knowing that people were still around.
"I know," Shinji said before he began running to Watchdog.
(Later at the Watchdog center)
Shinji was in front of Watchdog as she looked upon Shinji. "A horror has appeared in your new school Shinji you must cut it down," Watchdog said making Shinji nod.
"It shall be done," Shinji said before bowing and leaving back to his school.
"It has to be that teacher if we don't hurry more students could become his meal," Zaruba said as Shinji ran.
"Yeah but this won't be easy especially when I'm supposed to be a student," Shinji said as he ran as fast as he could with his Coat trailing behind him.
"Just remember the Makai Order can cover up for you making it seem like he was in an accident," Zaruba said as Shinji growled.
"But what about the students who saw him," Shinji said as he ran.
"We'll think of something," Zaruba said as Shinji gave chase.
(Meanwhile at the school)
"Night time," the Horror said as he saw his pray another student of this human vessels which means he can eat her and he can use her body to continue to eat humans.
He then began to head outside to meet with the Student as the Horrors human vessel had a sinister smirk on his face.
The Horror slowly approached her but he was kicked in the face somehow and dropped to the floor then he was dragged up to the rooftop, he looked up to see a certain brown haired knight, Shinji then grabbed his lighter and lighted it up in front of the Horror's face.
"Found you." Shinji said as he jumped back.
"I actually thought your reckless plan would never work." Zaruba said to him with a nonexistence sweat drop.
"Hey it worked didn't it," Shinji said as the Horror snarled.
"Makai Knight!" he yelled as he was ready for battle. "Why do you keep interfering!" the Horror growled out as Shinji smirked.
"Because so long as you Horrors exist the Makai Order and the Makai Knights will always fight you," Shinji said before the Horror charged at Shinji and the two began to get into a fist fight with the Horror striking wildly and Shinji striking with trained ease.
The two exchanged blows as they fought each other in an attempt to overpower the other. The battle continued as the Horror was soon knocked back as the sun was now fully set making the Horror smirk. "Very well then prepare to die!" the Horror yelled before its form changed to that of a winged Demon with demonic roses on it as Shinji glared.
"The Beast of Desire Incubus I shall cut down your Igna," Shinji said as he took out his sword and began getting into a sword fight against the Horror as Incubus relied on his claws to take down Shinji. Shinji slashed at the Horror causing some of its blood to come out but luckily Shinji kept his distance less he get contaminated by the Horrors blood. As the battle continued the Horror Incubus was knocked to the fence on the roof as Shinji glared at it.
"Why won't you die!" the Horror yelled as Shinji smirked.
"I guess I'm too hard to kill," Shinji said as he raised the Garoken skyward before drawing an energy ring above him before he was endowed with the Armor of Garo.
"G-Garo?!" the Horror called out in fear hearing of the Ougon Kishi Garo.
"Now I shall slice away your Igna," Garo said before he charged at the Horror. Incubus wasn't going to go down without a fight so he used his Rose body parts and made a sword to fight Garo with as the two began to exchange sword strikes now. They hacked and slashed but it was evident Garo had the upper hand in this fight as his armor protected him. "Nice try." Garo said as he stabbed the Garo-Ken in Incubus's gut, which made him scream in pain, Garo then took his sword out then slashed the Horror in half, which made black blood spill to the ground, some of it landed on Garo but thanks to the armor the blood didn't affect him. Incubus then disappeared along with the scattered blood. Garo then dismissed his armor making Shinji take his place.
"Another successful hunt," Zaruba said making Shinji nod to that.
"I know but still something is bugging me," Shinji said as he remembered the Angels and how he was called her.
"What?" Zaruba asked as Shinji looked to his partner.
"I was designated as the 3rd child when the 1st and 2nd child was already found and got training then years later I'm made the 3rd child I don't know about you but I think this Marduk Institute is a load of bull shit," Shinji said as Zaruba thought about it too.
"Your right something isn't right and I bet you Gendo wasn't expecting you to be like you are now," Zaruba said as Shinji nodded.
"Well then let's go report to Watchdog and get this purified," Shinji said before he ran off.
(Scene break 2 weeks later)
Shinji was sitting in the EVA's cockpit called the Entry Plug as Zaruba was still on his finger except this time over the plug suit. Shinji noticed the Plug Suit smelled like blood and being no stranger to it he had a hunch there would be adverse effects to long exposure to this LCL. "Hey I'll ask again, is this stuff supposed to smell like blood?" Shinji asked before Ritsuko spoke up.
(Test lab)
Shinji was in the test plug for Unit 1 as it looked like an EVA's head with gun like eyes, organic lung or heart like thing, and the spot for the Entry Plug at the top of the spine. "Don't worry Shinji it's safe to breathe so stop worrying," Ritsuko said before Maya began to type in commands for the training exercise.
(Test Plug)
Shinji took notice to the Angel appearing in front of him as he sighed it was the same test where the Angel does nothing and he has to kill it. "Ok Shinji we'll begin Pallet Rifle training now," Misato's voice said over the comm. links as Shinji sighed.
"The quickest way to defeat an Angel and stop it from evolving is aim for the core we know the Gold Knight from a few weeks ago knew of this weakness and was able to handle it accordingly but we cannot put our future in the hands of one man," Ritsuko explained over the comm. links as the Angels S2 core was being filled similar to a liquid.
"Ok so what?" Shinji asked as the training Unit 1 held a giant mini gun with a grip of a rifle.
"Just center the target and pull the trigger fire in short bursts," Misato said as Shinji then sighed in annoyance.
"Will the Angel attack back because let's face it I'm not getting any training done with the Angel just standing there waiting to be killed," Shinji said before silence was fallowed.
(Test Lab)
"He has a point," Maya said as Misato sighed before turning to Ritsuko who shrugged.
"Ok Maya make the Angel attempt to attack Shinji," Misato ordered before Maya nodded and typed in the commands.
(With Shinji)
Shinji then took noticed to the Angel advancing torts him before its eyes glowed and Shinji had to get out of the way from a Cross Laser. "Now we're talking," Shinji said before he raised his weapon and began firing short bursts at the Angel.
When the bullets landed on the Angel it only effected it only a little, Shinji then decided to run ahead and he dodged a bunch of cross lasers then stopped right in front of the fake Angel and then pulled the trigger shooting it DIRECTLY in the core and making it explode.
"Too easy." Shinji said without a hint of sweat on his face.
(Test Lab)
"Wow, he's good." Maya commented while Misato nodded in agreement.
"He could be better than the second child," Ritsuko said as Misato looked impressed. Shinji had improvised when his opponent gained an edge in battle which lead him to victory.
"Yes but a loose cannon tactic like that could also get him killed," Misato said with a serious look on her face even if she was impressed that he turned tactics when original orders didn't work.
"Hey he's still new Major Katsuragi just cut him a bit of slack," Maya said as the training exercise continued.
(Scene break the next day)
Shinji was once again in school as he overheard a conversation between one of his classmates the speckled Kensuke and the freckled Hikari over something about print outs he didn't really pay attention he was just bored that the teacher keeps focusing on Second Impact like it was an obsession. But what he took notice was that another classmate had rejoined them as sense he didn't pilot EVA all the time no one got hurt. That was when the door opened to reveal someone else in the school uniform but also wearing a coat as Shinji took noticed to his necklace as it also looked like Zaruba. He had dark hair with a white stripe on it and dark eyes as Shinji knew what he was.
"Sorry I'm late I got lost trying to find my way through here and just found that this class is my homeroom," he said as Shinji recognized a Makai Knight when he saw one.
"It's quiet alright," the teacher said not minding his class was interrupted by a student before turning to his class. "Class I would like to introduce our newest transfer student Yamato Kazama," the teacher said as Yamato smiled.
"It's great to be here," Yamato said as the teacher then spoke up again.
"Well you can take a seat next to Ikari-san if you would," the teacher said before Yamato nodded and took his seat next to Shinji. After that class continued as normal.
It was then break came around as Shinji stood up and began to walk off before the missing student walked up to him as said student looked like a jock. "Hey transfers," he greeted as Shinji and Yamato looked at him.
"Yeah?" he asked as the jock smiled.
"Welcome to Tokyo-3 hope you all get around good here," Toji said making Shinji nod.
"It's great to be here like I said," Yamato said as Shinji soon noticed a message on his laptop written in Makai Language.
'Meet me on the roof,' it read before Shinji decided to carry out the message.
(Later on the roof)
Shinji was in front of Yamato as Yamato smiled. "Hello Garo," Yamato greeted as Shinji nodded.
"You're a Makai Knight right?" Shinji asked as the necklace spoke up.
"Yes he's the Silver Knight ZERO," the necklace said before Yamato sighed.
"I could have done my own introduction Silva," Yamato said as Silva laughed a little.
"A Madogu good to see someone else uses those," Zaruba said as he was on Shinji's Finger.
"Ok what I want to know is why you came here on my mission?" Shinji asked as Yamato smiled.
"Because the Watchdogs thought it would be to everyone's benefits that you had some backup sense no doubt NERV will be on your tail to make sure you pilot EVA," Yamato said as Shinji nodded.
"Ok but the Angels aren't that tough are they?" Shinji asked as Yamato sighed.
"No clue but it's better to be safe than sorry," Yamato replied as Shinji nodded to that.
That was when Rei appeared with her still bandaged body as she looked at Shinji robotically. "Ikari-san there's an Angel alert I shall go on ahead to HQ," Rei said as Shinji nodded.
"Ok then as for our first hunt together lets go wait for this Angel to show up," Yamato said showing two short swords under his coat.
"Agreed," Shinji said before they left to grab the, wrest of their gear.
(Scene break)
Shinji and Yamato are now at a random rooftop and they see the 4th Angel rampaging around town.
"You ready?" Shinji asked getting the Garo-ken out.
"Yeah." Yamato said getting two short swords out, the two knights then made circles of light in the air above them, Shinji now became Garo while a new figure took Yamato's place.
Yamato's body was clad in silver armor and his short swords transformed into refined silver scimitars and Silva still appeared around his neck. And his had the insignia of a diagonal line from top left to bottom right on his waist. A wolfish roar can be heard when his face was soon covered by a silver helmet which resembled a wolf's face, he then opened his eyes which are blue hues.
This is the Silver Fanged Knight, Zero.
(Central Dogma)
"Where's Shinji?" Misato demanded as she looked around.
"Don't know Section 2 lost sight of him a while ago and Rei last reported him talking with a new student," Makoto called as Shigeru spoke up.
"We've detected the Gold Knight guy again and he has an accomplice!" Shigeru called as Misato looked and cursed.
"Great there's two of them now," Misato said sarcastically as Gendo glared.
"Have Rei prepared to be deployed in the event the third child doesn't show up," Gendo said as he knew something wasn't right especially when Shinji was nowhere in sight.
(With Garo and Zero)
"Ikuze!" Garo called out before the two charged at the Angel.
"Yosh!" Zero called out as he followed his partner to face Shamshel.
Shamshel seeing them coming used his energy whip to try and knock down Garo but Zero appeared and sliced through the whip before Garo jumped over with his broadsword and slashed the part where the energy whip was connected off. The Angel then reacted by using its spare whip and began swinging Garo around as Zero took notice to two people hiding and watching the battle.
"Garo we have civilians caught in the cross fire," Zero called as Garo was thrown to the building side where he landed with a flip on his feet.
"You handle it I'll deal with the angel!" Garo called as Zero nodded and went to the boys recognizing them as his classmates. "You two come with me," Zero said before going off to find the spot where they entered.
(With Garo)
Garo saw the Angel Horror was already regenerating as he took notice to the fact that the Horror was tougher then it looked. "Looks like Watchdog was right they are better prepared now," Garo said before charging at the Angel.
"Careful Shinji you only have a limited time before the time in the armor is up," Zaruba said as Garo nodded.
"I know," Garo said as he slashed at the Angel.
(With Zero)
Zero arrived where the two entered the battle field before taking Kensuke's camera and crushing it. "Hey!" Kensuke called as Toji saw the weapons he had.
"You have more at home," Toji said as Zero then spoke up.
"Get back in the shelters and don't let me catch you guys out here again," Zero said before noticing Shinji was in trouble.
"Looks like he needs help, GINGA!" he invoked before out of a portal a Madou horse appeared which Zero mounted and rode off.
(With Garo)
Garo was stuck between two tentacles at his arms as the Angel was preparing to rip him in two as Garo cursed his luck right now. That was when two Scimitars sliced through the energy whips dropping Garo and when Garo looked he saw Zero on a Madou horse.
"Looks like he has one too," Garo said as Zero then rode at the Angel.
(Central Dogma)
"So it appears even silver guy has one of those horses if this keeps up then we might be in a pickle as a government funded organization," Misato said as Gendo's fists turned white which was hidden by his gloves.
(With Zero)
Zero soon stood on his Madou horse Ginga as he then prepared to jump as when he did he was at the Angels core which he then sliced it in an X formation causing it to burst into a red liquid before the Angel fell down dead before he ran up the angel and landed on the other side on his Madou horse.
"Victory is ours," Zero said as Garo appeared next to him impressed.
"Wow talk about a lucky break well then we should get out of here before NERV shows up," Garo said as Zero nodded.
"Yeah I came here with another Makai Knight who carries the title of Dan luckily he has connections that can cover for us," Zero said before the two ran off to disengage there armor.
(Central Dogma)
"God dammit to hell those damn Knights are doing our job for us!" Misato cursed as she kicked the wall.
"But mam isn't that a good thing I mean they are slaying the Angels," Maya asked as Ritsuko sighed.
"Yes but if they continue to do so the all the tax payers dollars that went into NERV would have gone to waist and in turn cause people to question if NERV is really needed and then possibly put a lot of NERV personnel out of the job," Ritsuko explained as Maya then gulped at that.
Gendo quietly left as he had a meeting to attend to.
(SEELE Meeting)
SEELE were gathered around Gendo as he was calm and collective about this. "Not once but twice you have allowed NERV to be upstaged by these Makai Knights and now there numbers grow," SEELE 1 said as clearly he was displeased.
"Yes it's because of these cockroaches that our previous investments are going to waist," SEELE 2 said as it was evident that the monoliths with the SEELE symbol on them were clearly pissed.
"My apologies but these Knights were an unforeseen factor in the scenario but we can turn this into a positive," Gendo said as SEELE 4 was intrigued.
"Explain," SEELE 4 said as Gendo nodded.
"If we allow them to slay the Angels for us we can then work on advancing the EVA project for the Human Instrumentality Project which would in turn give us enough time to prepare and add the fact that there is only two of them here them stopping us would be extremely difficult for them," Gendo explained as SEELE was intrigued by Gendo's explanation.
"I see your point then Ikari very well then continue on with the project but if you slay the Knights that would be a bonus remember the project holds highest importance," SEELE 1 said as Gendo nodded.
"It shall be done," Gendo said before the Monoliths vanished and Gendo was left in Darkness.
(Later with Gendo)
"So how is SEELE taking the appearance of these Knights?" Fuyutsuki asked as they were in Gendo's office playing Shogi.
"Not good it seems they are worried about these knights it leads me to assume there are many more of them hidden and if they have the weapons to slay angels it leads me to believe that they are using metaphysical means to carry this out," Gendo said as Fuyutsuki was shocked.
"Are you implying they are using magic?" Fuyutsuki asked as Gendo nodded.
"It is the only factor that makes sense in this situation," Gendo said as he soon won the game.
"Gendo I would be careful with these knights especially the Gold one he looks like something from the old story of the Knight of Light," Fuyutsuki said as Gendo nodded.
"Noted," Gendo said as they continued to play.
(Scene break)
Shinji was sitting in front of Misato as she glared at him. "Do you have any idea what we're dealing with right now thanks to you being a no show that Knight appeared brought a friend and they both killed the Angel!" Misato yelled as Shinji sighed. "This puts NERV in a tight spot now because now we might lose our Government funding, as well as people beginning to question if NERV would serve any purpose if two guys wielding swords and fanged armor is doing the job for NERV," Misato ranted at Shinji as he was clearly in trouble.
"Jeez I get it but seriously the Angel is dead we're all safe doesn't that count for a win for humanity," Shinji countered as he knew Yamato had left to take Angels' remains to be sealed by a Watchdog.
"It does if NERV is the one doing it and it's not whether the Angel is defeated or not it's that you didn't show up when Rei had told you there was an emergency at NERV to begin with and you didn't show up! So if anything you're the one who could be court marshaled for going AWOL and NERV is also suffering for your lack of discipline.
Shinji just about had enough. "You know what f*** you, f*** NERV because I didn't ask to be a Soldier and I remember a month ago saying that I would only fight if the armored guy didn't show up and he showed up I'm not you soldier I'm just one kid trying to be happy with life so f*** this!" Shinji yelled before grabbing his coat and walking off.
"Hey Shinji get back here we're not done here!" Misato called as Shinji ignored her and he was soon out the door.
(With Yamato)
Yamato stabbed his sword into the mouth of the Statue before a dagger was produced and was given to the Watchdog. "Thank you this will be sealed in Makai accordingly Yamato-san," the Watchdog said as Yamato nodded.
"Of course it is my duty as a Makai Knight but I do have one question though," Yamato said as Watchdog looked.
"Then ask," Watchdog said as Yamato nodded.
"Has there been any information on the identity of my mother's murderer?" Yamato asked before Watchdog sighed.
"I'm afraid not Yamato-san but you needn't worry about that for now go home and get some rest," Watchdog said as Yamato nodded.
"Ok Sorry for troubling you then," Yamato said before he headed off.
"Oh Yamato you needn't let vengeance cloud your mind," Silva said as she was looked at her partner.
