"It's Begun," stated Orion. "It is said that when the angels created by Seele have failed to rid humanity off this earth, a threat anew will rise from the darkness to salvage what little the lillum culture has created, and shall bring chaos to the earth." stated Orion yet again. "What are you talking about?" said Shinji as the earth rippled beneath him. Kensuke had already gone downstairs in fear of the quake.
"You see Shinji, I am apart of an organization that was created to deal with this threat." "But how?" asked a scared and confused Shinji. "I'm just like you, except my parents were long dead before I spoke my first words. I'm a pilot of this organization due to my special abilities. I have been informed to recruit you by WYVERN." "If I say no..." "We all die, no redemption, no ascending, no nothing, the portal to heaven and hell have been closed due to renegade demons and angels. Our organization has been tracking them down." stated Orion cutting Shinji off.
"What do I do?" asked Shinji. "Come with me," as soon as Orion had said that a giant human-like hand with its hand open was place near where they stood. Orion calmly stepped onto the hand and urged Shinji to join the organization. When Shinji looked up he saw a giant human figure that somewhat resembled the Evangelion series. It was dark blue and riveted with black lightning streaks all over its torso to its legs. "SHINJI, get in its about to attack," yelled Orion. "What's about to..." replied Shinji before stopping due to the obvious giant object in front of him staring at him. Shinji quickly stepped onto the hand of Orion's machine or whatever it was and soon as he did the hand raised him to what seemed like the head of the machine.
Then Shinji and Orion got off of the hand and stepped onto the head, they then stepped on a circle shaped platform protruding from the head, afterwards they were brought into what seemed like the core of the machine. It was black on the inside with what looked like the entry plug for the Evangelions. "In case your wondering about the layout, the NERV based in Germany had copied WYVERN's designs." Shinji saw Orion grab a seat next to the front video screen and began to check the stats of his machine. "Damn its not up to capacity, Shinji I need your help grab that seat over there. This is a bio-mechanical machine that runs on LCL that syncs with its pilot to engage in combat. This machine is on low reserves, so I need the help of another pilot." "What the hell do you want from me, I've only piloted Evangelions not this." "Shinji this machine is named Creete it has the same controls and functions of any Evangelion."
"But still..." just then the monitor turned on and revealed a giant-sized insect, on the front of its head was kanji for Oni. "Sit down and put on that headpiece, you'll see what Creete sees." Shinji then complied and brought the headpiece on top of his head. Shinji felt weird and felt that he could smell the enemy and see him in high definition.
This looked nothing like the angels, it resembled a dragonfly roughly. 'Demon, how?' "Shinji, just aim...SHINJI..SHINJI!" was the last thing Shinji heard before he blacked out.
Hospital
"Wake up Shinji," whispered Asuka. "Where's Orion?" "Orion-kun went back to America about a week ago, he was needed, his home-station was overrun by those things." replied Asuka. "What happened to the..." "Orion killed it." Asuka quickly explained. "Sabrina's taking his place here." said Asuka. "How long was I out?" asked Shinji. "Seven days," replied Asuka. 'Seven what.'
"So Shinji-kun about me breaking your S-DAT, I'm sorry..." Asuka said in somewhat seductive voice before Hikari rushed into the room they were in. Hikari quickly ran to his side and attacked him with a barrage of kisses.
"Um Hikari-chan, I'm glad to see you too," stated Shinji. Asuka gritted her teeth and told herself, 'So I have competition.' Hikari quickly embrace him in a hug in which returned with the same amount of energy. "I'm just glad your not hurt Shinji-kun." explained Hikari. "Oh so there is something going on between you two." said Asuka. "No" shouted Hikari and Shinji together somewhat embarrassed.
"Um Asuka can you give me and Shinji some time to talk alone," asked Hikari. "I guess.." "Okay, thanks," stated Hikari rushing her out of the room. When she was finally done she turned to Shinji. "Shinji, I've always admired you from the start, its just when I was informed you were a pilot, I could only think of how you could die any moment you were out there.
I just didn't want to loose someone precious to me." explained Hikari. Shinji was amazed by this, he had always thought himself a burden among the people he conversed with.
"That's why I want to know..." Hikari simply could not finish her sentence, due to the immense blush it would cause. 'I can't back down now,' thought Hikari. She moved her face close to his in his bed-ridden state, he couldn't move an inch due to the bed reclined position.
So he just sat there counting every freckle on her face until, she spoke up and said. "If you'll be my boyfriend..." "Oh sorry, I shouldn't have said that I..." Hikari said until she was caught off by a kiss to her mouth from Shinji.
WYVERN
HEADQUARTERS
"Doctor I have something to tell you, It's about Orion and Shinji's readings. Something in Orion through Creete altered Shinji mind. One more thing sir, Shinji attendance in Creete's cockpit altered Orion" "I'm afraid due to a glitch during the startup process, it messed up Orion's neural network, he might of regained some of his memories sir," "What's so bad about that Lieutenant." asked the Doctor.
"Sir, I mean his demonic ones."
Sorry for the delay.
Expect a longer chapter between now and the last week of December.
Don't worry this one is probably going to contain three regular chapters combined as far as the length goes. Reviews are welcomed.
