"Master Terrence...my name is Daniel Barton. I'm here to bring the attention of a 'request' of an assassination to you." a thin man in a dusty black tuxedo informs a haggard man with blood stained bandages wrapped around his head.
"What could this assassination request pertain to?" Master Terrence asks Daniel. "We haven't had any requests for hits in a week, so please...enlighten me over what the job is."
"Well...this 16 year old girl by the name of Krissy Nathanielson, best know as TheAnimeFreak, has requested your best man to take out a group of 'snarky' individuals giving her hell over how she loves the live action tetralogy adaption of the famous anime 'Power Deceiver and the Angels of Hate'." Daniel replies back and explains, though he starts to crack up over explaining the absurdity of the request.
"Daniel, we don't fill such petty and trivial requests." Terrence replies, chuckling a bit over the request. "I greatly despise fanbases and what they all stand for with a burning passion, but I find sending out our best assassin to take down fans who disagree with another to be in poor taste."
"Exactly." Daniel nods back. "but as dumb and childish as it sounds, there's a major catch."
Terrence's eyes open wide, which he leans towards Daniel and asks, "What's the catch, eh?"
"Little Miss Krissy is of royalty. Her parents are very very wealthy. This little job of ours can foist a great paycheck onto us."
Terrence leans back, thinks for a few seconds, then replies, "Okay...i'm in...but who should we send in?"
"Perhaps the Surf Ninja?" Daniel asks him. "I've heard he's pretty well qualified to do the job despite his love of reefer."
"No." Terrence snaps back. "This job calls for a real assassin."
"Who?" Daniel questions him. "Who's this 'real' assassin you plan to pay for the job?"
Terrence shifts his eyes, leans towards Daniel's face and replies, "...Bloodjaw."
Daniel's eyes open wide in a fashion that suggest he has nothing else to say.
"So you want me to drive my ass to Pittsburgh and Oklahoma just to murder some detractors of a live action tetralogy adaption of some stupid anime?" a sinister sounding man gutturally snarls at Terrence, which both men are sitting in dingy, poorly lit room.
A gloved hand reaches towards a cigarette and pulls it. Blood stains has soaked the living hell of the cigarette as the hand grinds it into an ashtray. Blood drips onto the coffee table as the hand pulls out another cigarette and lights it.
"Bloodjaw, why must you smoke in my lobby?" Terrence annoying asks him.
"...because I can and I don't a fuck anyhow." Bloodjaw snarls back in a snarky tone as he continues to work at the cigarette. His face consists of a shiny pitch black motorcycle helmet with part of it on the bottom sawed off, revealing a blood soaked skinless mouth.
He leans back a little, then adds, "I still think this is the single stupidest assassination request i've ever received. Sure, the pay is amazing, but the concept alone is fuckin' retarded and childish. Driving on my million dollar Harley to two locations to kill two innocent pricks that don't agree with this bitch's opinion on some dumb ass movies not only strikes to me as unfathomably dumb, but also brutally thoughtcrimish."
"I know, I know. I completely agree with you." Terrence replies, but leans back, smiles and adds, "but the pay. It'll be the most we'll ever get in our damn lives. Besides...someone wants to speak to you."
Despite his eyes not being visible, he rolls them in discontent as he turns around and sees a teenage girl with blonde and pink hair.
Seeing Bloodjaw, the girl is taken aback by his disturbing, somewhat stomach churning appearance, but remembers why she's there.
She looks at him and informs, "Mr. Bloodjaw...my name is Krissy Nathanielson but you can just call me TheAnimeFreak."
"You gotta be fuckin' kidding me?" Bloodjaw scoffs back in his head, then adds. "Well it's nice to meet you...AnimeFreak." with a subtle sense of embarrassment.
"Same here." Krissy replies. "Now while my folks are going to fork over a lot for you to get the job done, I want absolute proof that you did."
"Wait...what do you mean by that?" Bloodjaw asks her, which he then tells himself, "Man I really should just blow her fuckin' head in half if she's gonna pester my ass over doing my goddamn job."
"I want you to...bring me a little part of them to show me that you dispatched their ungrateful selves. No tiptoeing around me. Just pure proof." Krissy replies in a relatively stern voice.
Bloodjaw just nods back and replies back, "Yes yes I will do this. Now please...let me go and do my job, mmmkay?"
Krissy, satisfied with what Bloodjaw told her, smiles and hugs him, which confuses him at first but then simply rolls with it and hugs her back, though the blood of his exposed jaw drips on her left shoulder.
After they both break away from each other, Krissy points her right index finger up and tells Bloodjaw, "Hang on a second...I got something for you to make your appearance less obvious.".
"Okay okay...show me what you got." he replies back and stands back as the girl walks to another side of the room and grabs a paper bag. She brings it back and hands it over to him.
Bloodjaw takes a peak into the bag, darts his head back up to Krissy and replies, "The fuck is this shit?"
Claremore, Oklahoma
"Well shit man...this person keeps posting this textual vomit. It keeps getting ridiculous.".
Someone is sitting by their computer. On their computer is the site "Incredibly_Upcoming_", a movie website dedicated to films on the way. It contains a forum that has a bit of a controversial stride in how wildly decisive and split opinions can be.
A dog jumps onto the chair next to the chair where the computer is at. It looks at the screen but simply tilts its head back and forth only to jump off of it.
In another room of the posh looking house in the suburbs, a lanky man with messy brown hair walks around with a cellphone, chatting with another person on the other end of the line.
"Yes I know that I really should be away from the internet, but goddamn these people can get so stupid. Hell, I actually find the live action Power Deceiver film to be okay, but seriously...there's too many flaws for me to stay quite." the man talks into it.
He passes by a stockier man sitting on a couch, wearing a Oklahoma Sooners T-Shirt, somewhat baggy jeans and a Nickelback hat, drinking a bottle of Smirnoff Black Ice and watching a game of Football on the television.
"Hey Gerald, get your skinny ass out of the way. I don't want to miss a single play of my homeboys." the stocky man loudly grumbles.
Gerald turns around and yells, "Goddammitt Berty why do you always have to get all up in arms at me when i'm in the way of your precious football shit. You see i'm on the phone?"
"Well yeah..." he replies back, pauses, takes a sip of his drink and adds, "but I don't give a fuck that you're on the phone. I'm tired of your and your bullshit 'persecution complex' crap you make me put up with."
Not really interested in putting up with him while on the phone, Gerald simply walks out of the way and walks towards the front door.
While standing by the door, Gerald continues to chat on the phone until the door bell rings, making him tell the person on the other end of the line, "Alright man, someone's at the door. I'll chat with you on IRC later.".
Gerald hangs up the phone and opens the door, only to open his eyes in bewilderment as he sees a fairly tall man in a leather jacket, leather gloves, black jeans and biker boots wearing a Norio Wakamoto mask over his head which makes him think to himself, "The fuck is this shit?"
The man bows and cheekily asks, "The just a little person, I am said selling the stock where you rori are splendid. That is correct, is?"
"Ummm...pardon me, buddy?" Gerald asks, sounding even more perplexed by why this strange person has come to visit him.
"Well coming being, I when you each other dye the kusotai hair with tentacle deirudo, heard the girl of a hot teen and with the best of the pornography of animation. The companion please not be disappointed to me?" the strange man asks him again, sounding a little disappointed in Gerald's response.
"Why is this son of a bitch speaking on broken Engrish?" he continues to ask himself why this is happening of all things.
"The person who comes on. As for me like CM flat tire of WWE of all ones dangling, please do not keep. Please teach just the place where the pornography of this kusoanime is retained?" the man asks again, sounding increasingly more impatient and irritated.
"Look man, if you could just stop talking to me in that piece of shit Engrish you're speaking in and actually try to speaking proper English, I could help you with what you want but at this state...i'm afraid I can't so please...go bug some other tortured soul's home with your verbal vomit." Gerald yells at him, looking like he's about to reach for his cellphone and call for the cops to have the man removed from the premises.
"After that, safely…Don't you think? hateful the person, it is to act playfully!" the man screams which he kicks Gerald right back into his house and proceeds to walk in and shut the door behind him.
Inside the house, Gerald tries to crawl away from the invader, but he grabs him by the back of his shirt, lifts him up and tosses him into the living room. Gerald turns himself over and looks at the man with a look of fear on his face. However, the man just stands there, lifts his right index finger and takes off his mask, revealing that it was Bloodjaw all along.
Gerald keeps looking at him, only now with an increased sense of utter despair and horror after he revealed what was underneath the mask. Bloodjaw pulls out a pistol and growls, "Buddy...just stay there. I don't like what i've been tasked to do but I have to do it anyhow."
However, he turns his head towards the room with the computer and sees a cabinet full of DVDs that perks his attention.
"Stay the fuck down now, I need to see what shit you collect on DVD." Bloodjaw growls at Gerald while aiming his pistol at him, which he nods at him in fear, giving Bloodjaw the opportunity to walk over to the room and stand right near the cabinet.
He opens the cabinet and looks through the various DVDs stored in there. Most of them are fairly obscure horror, sci-fi and cult films that simply perk his attention and increase his lack of desire to kill the person as contracted.
"Why the fuck should I kill this person when they have such a great DVD collection?" Bloodjaw continues to ponder, obviously losing complete interest in killing Gerald. He turns around and tells him, "Buddy, i'm not going to kill you, okay?"
"Uh...uh...uh...okay. Why did you come to kill me?" Gerald stammers back as he replies.
"I'm a contractual killer sent to murder you. However, if you know someone else that I can kill and claim it's you then by all means, direct him or her to me." he explains in a sincere tone.
Gerald nervously smiles, stands up and replies, "Um...um...hang on a second.", which he walks over to Berty and stands in front of the TV again.
"Goddamit Gerald, the fuck you want now?" he shouts at him.
Several minutes later, Bloodjaw exits the house, wearing the mask again, waving at Gerald with one hand and holding the bloodied severed head of Berty in the other, spinal cord still attached and all.
He gets onto his motorcycle, puts the head into the bag the Norio Wakamoto mask was originally in, shoves the spinal cord into it to make it not noticeable, starts the motorcycle up and drives away.
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
In the streets, a slightly nerdy looking guy in a orange blazer, an Apex Twin t-shirt, acid wash jeans, some Nike Kicks and horn rimmed glasses is walking on the street holding a vintage rare keyboards and a Moog synthesizer all while clutching a hold of his car keys.
In the background near a corner, Bloodjaw, once again wearing the Norio Wakamoto mask with passerbys not even noticing him.
The nerdy guy walks up to his car, unlocks the back doors and carefully puts his newly bought vintage equipment into the backseat. After he gets out, he sees Bloodjaw standing there, which startles him a little.
"Hey dude...what's up with the Wakamoto mask?" he asks him. "you really should've wore a suit while you were at it because the biker getup totally ruins the look."
Bloodjaw, not amused, slowly takes off the mask, revealing his grisly biker helmet and bloodied, skinless and muscleless mouth, which makes the nerdy guy's eyes open wide in utter horror and run away from him. Bloodjaw proceeds to follow him, which he chases him for a minute or two until the man simply stops cold to clench his arms onto his stomach to ease the pain.
Bloodjaw catches up with him, grabs him from behind and pulls out a knife which he puts against his throat. "Why, man..why are you doing this to me?" he asks Bloodjaw.
"No hard feelings, this is just my job and give TheAnimeFreak her regards." he growls at him as he keeps a strong hold onto him.
"What the hell are you...TheAnimeFreak, what the fuck does she has to do with..." the man shouts back, going from confusion to irritation, though his speech is dropped when Bloodjaw digs his knife into his neck, making a nasty geyser of blood spill out as he cuts around the neck and right into the muscles and spine.
After going completely around the man's neck, he lets the body go, puts his right foot onto its back and rips the head off completely, allowing more blood to profusely spray out, yet not a single passerby even directs their attention to the grisly events that have just occurred.
Now having killed this person and pretty much finishing his job, he takes the severed head and his mask back to his motorcycle. He puts the head and the mask into the bag, starts up his bike and once again, drives away.
"Alright, Little Miss Anime Freak. I've done the job." a returning Bloodjaw tells Krissy after he walked into the headquarters he works for, holding the now bloodstained and smelly paper bag with the severed heads.
"Show me the heads, Mr. Bloodjaw." Krissy replies, demanding him to show her proof of his killings, which he nods back.
He puts the bag on a table and reaches into it. The first thing he pulls out is the Norio Wakamoto mask, which he shrugs it off and tosses it aside. He then pulls out the severed head of the nerdy guy, still looking a bit fresh and puts it onto the table.
"Oh I take it this is that guy who's been the biggest pest in shitting on me on the forum. So obviously looks like him." Krissy tells Bloodjaw while smiling.
"Well I hope it really was him. the location in Pittsburgh was so vague, I might've just killed some other random schmuck." he shrugs to himself. After that, he pulls Berty's head out, which still has the spinal cord attached and has already started to enter rigor mortis and very early stages of decay. He puts the head onto the table, which Krissy plants her hands over her face to keep the horrible smell away.
"Uhhhh...i'll just take it that you killed who you were supposed to kill but for goodness sake, put that wretched thing away!" she yells back, which Bloodjaw nods and puts it away, which makes Krissy move her hands away and sigh in relief.
"So I guess I can say thank you for taking out the detractors for me." she adds.
"Well...you're welcome but I got one last task to do before we depart." Bloodjaw replies.
"and what is that?" she asks him, looking confused, which he proceeds to pull out his pistol and shoot her point blank in the center of her forehead, causing blood to erupt and splatter against the wall she was sitting in front of.
"Rei, what in the bloody hell are you thinking?" Mari yells at her as she reads the short story her friend has written for DesuLoli. "You write a short story for Kristina and you decide to kill off the Captain Ersatz based on her. Real smart of you."
"Oh shoot. I dunno what I was thinking." Rei replies with a nervous smile and chuckle. "My imagination can run so wild, I forget what i'm supposed to do sometimes."
Mari looks back at her, completely unamused by her friend's response. "Can't you just rewrite the ending of your story so Bloodjaw doesn't kill Krissy?"
"Yes, Mari...i'm doing that right now." Rei sighs back as she highlights the entire part she typed that depicts Bloodjaw murdering Krissy by shooting her in the head with his gun and with a simple tap of the backspace key, deletes them and starts to type out an entirely new sequence as a replacement. She spends a good minute or so of thinking and typing right until she hits a key and shouts, "Done!"
"So what did you do instead?" Mari asks her, looking a bit jaded.
"So basically after Krissy says 'and what is that?', Bloodjaw instead pats her on the back and tells her 'Krissy, my girl...I like to tell you i'll consider you an honorary member of our assassin league, so with that said...want any ice cream?'. I then wrote 'Krissy simply smiles back and follows him as they leave the building, hop onto his motorcycle and drive off to the nearest Baskin Robbins. The End." Rei informs Mari. "Does that sound any better?"
"Well...it is a more upbeat ending. I'll give you that at the very least." Mari sneers back. "So..that does mean you're finally done writing that silly thing."
"Of course I am...which means it's time for me to...PRINT!" Rei happily shouts back as she sets up the printer, puts some printer paper in it, gets the computer ready to print the story and clicks on her mouse to let it start printing.
However, Rei's excitement starts to cool off as she sees her printer is printing the story at a rather unusually slow pace, which the first sheet being printed in a methodical, workman like pace.
"Lemme guess...this is gonna take a while." Mari sneers back, sounding very unenthusiastic about the whole thing.
"I...don't know. Sucks that it is." Rei sighs in response, looking like she's growing a bit bored. "So you want to watch a movie to bid the time?"
"Sure thing." Mari responds as she stands up and stretches her legs. "Surprise me with what you got in store this time."
"Well...there's The Visitor from 1979, which is a really funky American/Italian co-production. Another such co-production is 1981's Nightmare, which is really really nasty. Or maybe we can just watch Tokyo Fist." Rei replies, grabbing said DVDs and showing them to her friend.
Mari nods as she sees the DVDs, but quickly replies, "Tokyo Fist, hands down. Pop it in.", which Rei nods back, takes the DVD over to her DVD player and puts it in, which both girls sit on the couch and watch it together.
"Shinji...can you change the channel, this stupid movie about this stupid Pumaman is boring me." Asuka shrugs as they sit on a couch of their own. "While you search for something better to watch, i'll ask Misato about something."
"Okay okay." he calmly replies back and starts to channel surf as Asuka gets off the couch and walks over towards Misato who's sitting on a table and typing away on a laptop.
"Ummm...Misato...I have a question to ask you." she asks her.
"Sure thing." Misato replies back. "I've told you before that you can ask me anything you like."
"Well...is it possible that you can retain a friendship despite having wildly split opinions on something?" Asuka adds, sounding very calm and reserved.
"Of course, silly. Just because you strongly disagree with someone doesn't mean you should despise and demonize the person while ending your friendship with them. Only crazy people with issues do that." Misato replies in an honest manner.
"Oh okay. It's just that something that happened early today has been bugging me like crazy, it's just been..." Asuka replies. However, Shinji cuts her off by informing her, "Asuka, you gotta see what's on the TV."
"What is it, baka Shinji?" she asks him, not sounding amused that her roommate has broke into her chat with Misato.
"It's really serious, you need to see this now." Shinji shouts back, still retaining his calm tone somehow.
"Okay, okay i'll see it, you baka." Asuka shouts back in response which she gets back up and sits on the couch again, only to see something on the TV that makes her eyes open wide in utter despair and horror.
"Early today, Kristina Hoffle, better known as the internet pop culture icon 'DesuLoli' went missing and has yet to be found by anyone. If anyone knows the whereabouts of Kristina Hoffle, please contact the Tokyo-3 Police Headquarters as soon as possible." a news reporter on the evening news informs the viewers, all while Asuka watches in sheer horror and quietly mutters, "What have I done?"
Chapter 35: The Tragedy of Saying Goodbye.
Inside an abandoned warehouse, DesuLoli is tied to a chair, with her arms and body tied to the chair and a towel wrapped around her mouth which acts as a mouth gag.
"Rise and shine, Kristina." Misaki sarcastically tells her hostage, which she slowly opens her eyes and sees her decked out in a sinister looking SEELE issued plug suit that's mostly shiny black and with demonic red indents and streaks in various places. "We got so much to do but in so little time."
DesuLoli, who looks really zoned out and completely lost, simply keeps her head slumped to the side and watches her captor. Misaki then adds, "Well you just wait here while I have a little chat with someone who's been trying to get a hold of me right now.", noting that her cellphone is ringing. She takes it out and asks the person on the other line, "Yeah what is it, Master Lorenz?"
"Misaki...i'm letting you know that you should get yourself in your EVA and get in position with the girl in hand. The angel is on it's way to Tokyo-3 so I need you to get into position so the Second Child can make her way over here while her friends, most importantly, the First Child, will be distracted with fighting Diemael." Keel informs her in a stern tone.
"Okay, I am all up for this fighting, but why can't I personally confront the First myself?" Misaki asks her superior in a whiny tone.
"You may be strong, but you're not an organic being that was meant to live for a prolonged period of time. Your task, as you should remember, is to try to mentally affect the Second Child in hopes of her wanting to give up working for Nerv and eventually sway her away to working with us. The First Child on the other hand, is a whole different can of worms that we're working on. She is very, very important to us at SEELE, so we can't afford you to confront her, especially now." Keel sternly adds.
Misaki continues to chat with her superior when she feels a weird feeling in her body which immediately makes her tell Keel, "Master Lorenz...i'm starting to feel sick."
"Have you taken your elixir yet or are you nearly out of it?" he asks her.
"Oh shit, my elixir!" Misaki shouts back which she puts her cellphone aside, frantically looks through a bag and pulls out a case. She puts it on the floor next to her cellphone, opens it up and finds a sole half-empty hypodermic needle in it. She picks the cellphone back up and tells Keel, "Master Lorenz, there's just one more left and it's only half-full."
"Don't worry, Misaki...you'll be fine." he replies back, which she nods back and once again puts her cellphone aside.
With the needle in hand, she pulls a little part of the collar of her plug suit away to reveal a slightly ghastly looking bump that notifies that it's where she injects the elixir into her body. She slowly pushes the needle into the ugly bump and injects the elixir into her body, which she starts to shake a little in a slightly orgasmic manner. She then quickly pulls the needle out, tosses it aside and puts her hands onto a nearby table to let the elixir finish passing through her body and to stop shaking.
After standing for a good 20 seconds, she stops shaking, tilts her head back and sighs in relief as she pulls the collar of her plug suit back up over the bump and picks her cellphone back up.
"Master Lorenz..i've taken my elixir. If I don't make survive my mission because I didn't have a full dosage, please don't take my death in vain." Misaki informs her superior.
"Yes, Misaki. We at SEELE will not consider your death to be in vain if it happens." he replies in a sincere tone.
"Thanks, Master." she replies back while smiling. "I'll get to my position and do my job."
"That's my girl." Keel responds. "Do your best and i'll either congratulate you or see you on the other side years from now.". He then hangs up, which cues Misaki to hang up her cellphone and put it aside.
She then refocuses her attention towards DesuLoli, takes out a knife, walks up to her and tells her, "Alright Kristina...it's your time to shine. I'm going to break you free from the ropes so you can play your part in our grand scheme." as she cuts the ropes and lifts her up. She puts her knife aside, sets DesuLoli on the ground and adds, "Stay right here. I'm going to go inside my Evangelion so we can get started.", which she doesn't reply and continues to look glazed and dazed.
Misaki walks away from DesuLoli, walks towards a ladder, climbs it, gets onto a platform that leads to a very roughly made entry plug. She opens it, gets inside, closes the door and activates her EVA, which makes the entry plug shove itself inside.
In her cockpit, Misaki puts her hands on the controls, twist her lips into a sinister grin and chuckle, "Alright...let's get this over with. Bring on the Second Child!"
Back at Rei's apartment, she and Mari are sleeping next to each other with the movie now at the end credits. However, loud knocks are heard outside of the apartment which startles both girls, waking them up from their sleep.
"Aw shoot. Who is this?" Rei grumbles as she tries to get herself awake.
"I dunno, it's your apartment so you go see who's at the door." Mari grumbles back, sounding even more tired than her friend.
"Alright Mari...i'll go see who it is." Rei replies, sounding a little more awake now. She gets off the couch and walks towards her apartment room front door. She opens it and is immediately greeted by a slightly agitated looking Agent Smith.
"Ummm sir Agent Smith...what brings you here at this time of the night?" she asks him.
"Is Mari Illustrious Makinami with you?" he replies and asks her, sounding dead serious.
"I'm here, Agent Smith." Mari replies, sounding more awake than she did a few seconds.
"Good...which means I need to take you two to HQ so you can both suit up and get into your Evangelions alongside Shinji Ikari and Asuka Langley Soryu to confront the angel ASAP." he informs them.
"Oh man." both girls moan in unison. "an angel fight this at this late at night...really?"
"Technically you mean early this morning." Agent Smith dryly replies. "but anyhow you two need to come with me now. No questions."
They both nod, get their shoes on and start to follow the agent out of the door. However, Rei quickly stops and remembers that she was printing the story for DesuLoli, which she quickly runs to her printer and sees it finished printing as she and Mari fell asleep watching Tokyo Fist. She snatches the papers and resumes following Mari and Agent Smith to out of her apartment.
"Ms. Ayanami...can I ask you why you're taking those papers with you?" Agent Smith asks her.
"Well there's a friend at school and since me and Mari have to go there later in the day, I thought it would be for the better if I took the story I wrote for her with me ahead of time and so I wouldn't forget it in case I didn't have any time to go back home after finishing the mission." Rei explains to him while holding up the papers.
He simply nods back while directing her to follow him and Mari to his car.
"Pilots...your mission is to eliminate the angel as always." Misato informs the children, who are already in their plug suits and standing in a line shoulder to shoulder to each other. "However, you must be very careful and precise in taking it out because it flies and can easily cause massive damage to your EVAs if you allow it to fly into you."
"So you're saying we have to take the angel out with precision shots?" Asuka asks her. "so what if this angel actually uses its AT field to deflect our firearms?"
"Normally, I would disagree with you, but in this case it's a very good possibility." Rei replies. "We've faced angels that are strangely avert from using their AT fields so it's possible this one will use it's AT field considering that it's supposed to be pretty darn lethal...though speaking from past experience, not using an AT field doesn't always mean less dangerous."
The other EVA pilots nod back as they continue to stand there receiving orders. Mari then looks up and asks, "So...would it be a bad thing if I tried to do a trick shot with my EVA's built in blades?"
"No Mari." Gendo replies who's standing next to his wife and Fuyutsuki. "Once you can position yourself to penetrate the angel's core with one strike then by all means do it. You're fully authorized to do so under my order.". These little comments make Misato cringe a little.
Yui looks at everyone and asks, "Any more questions?", which none of the children reply, though Shiro runs up to her and asks, "Is Jet Alone Prime going along too?"
Gendo looks at him and calmly replies, "Yes Mr. Tokita...your silly mech is acting as support in this mission so get it ready and out with the EVAs."
"Okay man. I'll be right on it." he replies back and runs back to where Jet is stored.
Gendo focuses his attention on the children and tells them, "Now you all get into your EVAs and get into position.", which they nod back and head towards the entryway to their entry plugs.
Rei, Mari and Shinji walk with each other with Shinji asking, "So Rei...how you're doing?"
"I'm doing okay despite being less than amused with this spur of the moment mission." she replies. "earlier, I was writing a story for DesuLoli as promised so I printed it all out and brought it with me in case we have to go to school immediately after this mission."
"Ummm Rei...about DesuLoli." Shinji quietly replies, sounding rather serious.
"What is it?" she replies back, sounding a little puzzled.
"DesuLoli has been reported missing since after school." he responds in a slightly upset tone.
Rei, at first, looks to be taken aback by this news, but then she lowers her eyebrows and inquires, "...maybe this angel fight could be connected to this. Something sounds totally fishy now that you mention it."
"That's a rather...bizarre assumption." Mari replies. "but at the same time, you could be onto something."
"Yes I could very well be." she replies back to her friend. "but anyway, we gotta get to our EVAs and take down this angel."
Both Mari and Shinji nod back, which all three kids decide to run towards their designated entry plugs and get it started.
Inside Unit 02, Asuka sits in her darkened cockpit with her hands clamped together and her head leaning against them as if she's praying. She quietly tells herself, "Oh bitte Gott, dass Kristina nicht tot ist. Bitte Gott, sag mir ich nicht vermasseln und führen sie bis zu ihrem Tod mit meinem Mist Aktionen von früher. Bitte Gott, sag mir, dass ich in der Lage sein, sie zu finden und ein Unrecht, tun Sie dies bitte für mich. Ich will nicht traurig sein über mich...bitte?" right until the lights in her cockpit come on, notifying her that she's ready to get into action. She breaks away from her sorrow filled self and chuckles. "Okay you gott damn angel. Bring it!"
Asuka, alongside her fellow EVA pilots, stand outside in the streets, inside their Evangelions and accompanied by Jet Alone Prime.
"Rei...can you see anything?" Shinji asks her. "I'm still not used to doing this at night."
"I doubt any of us are used to piloting our Evangelions when it's dark." she replies back.
"If you ask me, my Jet Alone Prime Maniacs, I can see things clearly and don't see this angel, brother." Jet adds, still sounding really goofy with his Hulk Hogan derived AI.
However, all of them become alert when they hear a high pitched shriek and the sound of something flying with a high velocity coming their way.
"Alright everyone, get into position. The angel is on it's way and we're going to try to kick it's ass." Rei orders everyone, sounding determined to stop it with her co-pilots.
The EVA pilots make their Evangelions pull out their weapons while Jet takes out his hammer, all anticipating to attack the incoming angel. However, much to their shock, they see a monstrous white winged creature with sharp teeth and mandibles heading their way like a freight train on the loose, making them all dodge out of it's way to avoid getting hit.
"What the bloody hell is that?" Mari shouts out in utter shock. "Who in the bloody world are we able to stop THAT!"
"I dunno." Rei replies, "but I guess that's why we have to be more strategic in this fight."
"Okay." Shinji calmly replies. "I think we'll be able to stop it. We've always been able to stop these angels all the time.
"Bah, I think we should just blitzkrieg it!" Asuka yells back, sounding a little eager and arrogant. "It should be easy to do so."
Everyone else facepalms at Asuka's delusional response and get even more horrified when they see her make her EVA get in front of everyone else, making them all scream, "ASUKA, ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND!"
"Yes, you bakas. A matter of fact, i'm probably more crazy than any of you will ever be." she sneers back and gets into a position ready to try to take the angel out.
However, a large video screen that's near one of the buildings turn on, showing the face of Misaki's Evangelion which catches everyone off guard.
"What the hell is that?" Rei stammers back, looking completely confused by what is now going on.
"Hello everyone...and most importantly...the Second Child. Most of you might not be too familiar with my Evangelion but to refresh your memories, my name is Misaki Baisotei. You may recognize me as your classmate in Room 2-A but there's far more to me than meets the eye. You see...i'm actually the Third Child of SEELE. Like you, i'm a child that pilots an Evangelion as you can see, but I work for SEELE, a company that has some...resentment towards your beloved Nerv, thus i'm here as a sort of...ahem...word of warning to your superiors if they keep veering off the wrong path against what my superiors have ordered them to follow." Misaki explains, obviously painting a rather dark, grim and shocking picture with her words and inflection that surprises everyone.
"Okay Misaki...are you and your superiors at SEELE responsible for this particular angel fight?" Rei asks her in a dead serious tone.
"I have no authorization to tell you that, First Child of Nerv." she snaps back. She then adds, "However...you stupid Nervlings, I do have authorization to show you this." which she then makes her EVA lift up DesuLoli to make her visible to her audience.
All of the Nerv EVA pilots widen their eyes and mouths in utter horror as they see their fellow classmate being held captive by this enemy on the screen. Rei being shocked that the person she wrote a story for has not only been found but is a hostage to a even bigger threat than the angel and Asuka in particular fuming mad over what she thinks Misaki has done.
Rather than staying quiet, Asuka shouts out, "Okay Misaki you SEELE bitch, you've taken what i've been worrying about and i'm coming to find you to kick your ass and take her back!"
"Hehehehe, you think you'll be able to find me, Second Child of Nerv...especially when you'll leave your friends behind to rot after the angel tears them apart?" Misaki cackles back, sounding very amused by what the Second Child yelled at her.
Rei makes Unit 00 walk up to Unit 02 and she tells Asuka, "You go ahead and find DesuLoli while I, Shinji, Mari and Jet take care of the angel."
"Okay." Asuka quietly responds, which she then makes Unit 02 walk up to the screen and shouts at Misaki, "Alright...if you can give me a hint where you and DesuLoli are located, i'll show you what i'm made of and trust me...you have no idea that i'm far more capable of kicking your ass than you think."
At first, Misaki stays quiet, then replies, "Enlighten me with your combat skills...but anyhow...i'm in a really big and messy looking warehouse. If you can find the right one, we'll fight mano e mano over the hostage...okay?"
"You bet your ass!" Asuka shouts back, sounding very determined and confident, which she doesn't wait any longer and makes her EVA run away from the site to look for the warehouse Misaki and DesuLoli are in while the live feed Misaki was in cuts out, leaving the screen blank. The rest stay there and huddle together to come up with a plan to take the angel down.
Unit 02 frantically runs through the street, leaving footprints in the streets. It searches through the various warehouses right until it stops at a rather peculiar one, which right at that moment, various gun turrets pop out of nowhere and start shooting at the Evangelion, forcing Asuka to make her EVA dodge the attacks, pull out its assault rifle and destroy all of the turrets in a mere 20 seconds. Rather than putting the assault rifle away, Unit 02 keeps it out and proceeds to walk towards the warehouse and enter it.
"Rei, you think this is a good idea?" Mari asks her while she and her EVA with it's blades extracted stands on the ground while the others and Jet Alone Prime hide behind buildings with their rifles in hand.
"I think so. Me, Shinji and Jet will shoot at the angel while you try to get onto it and penetrate the core on it's head with one of your EVA's blades. You got that?" Rei replies, informing and ordering her friend.
"Eh...okay." Mari sneers back, remaining put. From a distance she sees the angel heading their way, making Unit 05 get into a fighting position. As soon as the angel gets close to them, she makes her EVA jump onto it.
Unit 02, inside the warehouse, slowly walks around with it's assault rifle in hand...right until it's caught off-guard by Misaki's freaky looking makeshift SEELE issued EVA. With a dual bladed spear in hand, it knocks Unit 02 down the ground, proceeding to walk away from the red armor plated EVA to put it's spear aside, take out its own prog knife and pick up DesuLoli to get Asuka's attention.
"DESULOLI!" Asuka shouts as she sees Misaki's EVA hold her classmate against the prog knife.
"I can see you made it, but i'm afraid it's almost too late for your American otaku friend here." Misaki chuckles back. "However..before I kill her, i'll let her say her final words."
"Oh mein Gott ... bitte sag mir nicht, ich bin wirklich seing diese.", Asuka quietly mutters to herself in utter horror.
Slowly, DesuLoli starts to feel the effects of the drug Misaki injected into her blood stream wear off. Even though her body still feels distant, she feels that she's up in the air and that the restraints and gag are gone. Her vision though is still a kaleidoscope of greatly distorted and sickening swirls and colors. However, one particular blob of flowing red in her sights start to seem familiar to her. She tries her hardest to focus on it as best as she can and it dons on her.
It's Evangelion Unit 02!
Taking a moment to clear her head she asks, as slowly and clearly as she can, "Asuka...is that you?"
Unit 02 reaches it's hand out towards DesuLoli while Asuka replies, "Yes DesuLoli...it's me. I'm sorry for acting like a total ass earlier."
"It's okay, Asuka. I was a total jerk myself. Arguments like that can bring the worst out of us." she replies back while lightly smiling. "If I die now...please tell my friends, my family...and my ex that I love them all."
"Desu...Kristina...don't say things like that. I can save you. Don't believe that junk Misaki told you." Asuka cries back.
"Asuka...I believe you can...I believe you ca..." DesuLoli replies, but in a split second, Misaki makes her EVA cut it's prog knife through DesuLoli's body and with a simple two handed push, her body splits in half with her upper body and lower body flying in different directions, completely horrifying and devastating Asuka in mere seconds.
"Rei...I have to give you this, but i'm shocked that this bloody damn angel IS using it's AT field." Mari yells out while her EVA hangs onto the angel with a fairly strong grip.
"I know...it's totally ridiculous that of all the angels we've fought, THIS ONE decides to act smart!" Rei yells back, sounding greatly irritated by what's going on.
However...to everyone's shock, Unit 01 comes out of hiding, holding a rocket launcher in hand.
"Shinji...what are you thinking?" Rei yells back in a very concerned tone.
"I think I can help weaken the angel with this." he replies back, still keeping his calm tone which makes Rei roll her eyes in disbelief.
After staying quiet for a few seconds, Rei replies by sighing, "Go ahead Shinji...do it and see if it works. Just try to not hit Mari and Unit 05 by accident."
"I won't hit them. Just the angel." Shinji replies back with a smile which Unit 01 aims the rocket launcher at the angel, turns on the tracker, has it track onto the angel and fires it.
Unit 02 and Misaki's EVA duke it out, with Unit 02 wielding it's prog knife and Misaki's EVA wielding the dual blade spear.
Although Misaki is the more lethal of the two, Asuka's unhinged anger and rage towards Misaki gives her the upper hand in the fight, coming off as completely ruthless. Both EVAs hit their weapons with very little instances of the weapons actually hitting either EVA.
This intense brawl rages on for a good three minutes, with Misaki's EVA spinning its spear to deflect the prog knife attacks. However, Unit 2 finally smacks the spear away and puts its prog knife away to initiate a hand to hand fight.
Misaki makes her EVA tackle Asuka's and try to pound and ground it's head, yet Unit 02 manages to block the punches and simply deliver a punch of it's own straight into it's face, even going as far to ripping off the red blindfold that covers parts of the EVA's face, revealing a very freaky and revolting visage underneath that makes Asuka all the more irate, culminating in Asuka making Unit 02 push the rival EVA off and grab the spear.
Misaki, shocked that her enemy has bested her, simply makes her EVA back away as she whines out, "Ummm...I apologize for killing your friend, but it was for the better."
"What did you say?" Asuka growls back, making Unit 02 aim the spear towards the enemy EVA's neck.
"Never mind that but..." Misaki replies back but in a frightening split second, Unit 02 stabs and cuts up the enemy EVA in a vicious manner, stopping right when it's red armor and the spear are splattered in blood, tossing said spear aside.
The enemy EVA slumps down, completely bloodied and damaged beyond recognition while Asuka makes her entry plug pop out. She gets out of her EVA, gets down to the ground and runs to DesuLoli's upper body. When she gets there, she tries her hardest to keep her emotions from running wild yet DesuLoli grabs her by her right leg, coughing out, "I'm so glad to see you one more time, Asuka."
"I know...i'm so sorry that I talked shit about you and your love of Reconstruction. Even though I do not like it, it was rude of me to act that mean to you." Asuka stammers back, on the verge of shedding tears."
"I...I...I just want to tell you that i'll be with you and the others till the end. My...body may not be with you, but my spirit will." DesuLoli continues to cough out, growing paler and sicker looking by every second.
Asuka kneels down, lifts her classmate up while carefully not doing any more damage to the massive exposed spine, flesh and entrails. Blood, guts and spinal fluid continue to seep out of the exposed part where her lower body used to be.
Despite trying her hardest to stay alive, DesuLoli starts to cough up blood and vomit, signaling to Asuka that her time on this planet is almost up.
"Please don't die on me...Kristina. Please don't." Asuka cries to her while slowly starting to shed tears.
"I'm...sorry...Asuka...but...I have...to go. I...see...see...see..." DesuLoli coughs back for one last time until blood, snot and bile spews out of her mouth, eyes, nostrils and ears. What remains of her body starts to violently shake while Asuka tries to help her but in a split second, she stops still.
Kristina "DesuLoli" Hoffle, age 17, has died in Asuka's arms. Forevermore.
From a distance, the entry plug of Misaki's EVA pops out and opens with lots of steam and smoke blazing out of it. Misaki climbs out of it, coughing as well. She gets down to the ground and approaches Asuka, despite vomiting blood, bile, mucus and pus. She stops, pulls the collar of her plug suit away and sees the bump now completely open and infected looking, spewing out bloodied and gunky pus much to her horror. However, she discards it and resumes walking towards Asuka.
"Asuka...you fucking Germanic cunt...I cannot believe you...managed to bring me down like this. I'm going to kill you now, you bitch and if I die, I assure you my fellow SEELE children and SEELE themselves will be out to get you." Misaki screams out, despite her voice starting to sound scratchy and a bit incomprehensible.
"Not on my watch, scheißkerl!" Asuka screams out after standing back up and simply kicks Misaki in the kick but much to her horror, she instead causes her foe's head to crumble and splatter away in half.
What's left of Misaki's head starts to spray out a massive geyser of blood, pus and bile while her body starts to violently vibrate. Once it stops spewing out wretched bodily fluids, it drops suddenly to the ground, motionless, with urine, excrement and pus pouring out of the vagina and anus, seeping through the plug suit and creeping onto the floor.
Staring at complete disbelief, Asuka simply takes a few steps back and tries to comprehend what just happened.
Despite Unit 01 shooting the rocket, it continues to follow the angel, which Unit 05 is still hanging onto. However, Mari manages to get her EVA close enough to the core and stabs it, making the angel spin around and contort in pain.
"Mari...make you EVA jump off the angel. The rocket cannot follow it any longer!" Rei screams at her.
"Okay, Rei. Will do", she replies back, making her EVA jump off and land on the ground.
The angel continues to spin around like a total spaz right until the rocket finally reaches it. It widens its eyes in shock when it sees the rocket and without any notice, the rocket hits the angel, blowing it up.
"Target neutralized." Maya tells the pilots. "Mission accomplished."
The pilots and Jet Alone Prime celebrate in their success, yet Asuka then breaks through the feed, informing everyone, "Guys...I have some good news...and some very bad news."
"What's wrong?" Misato asks her. "First...tell us the good news."
"I have neutralized Misaki Baisotei and her Evangelion." Asuka quietly replies.
"Okay...so what's the bad news, then?" Yui asks her.
"Kristina Hoffle...has been murdered. Murdered in front of my eyes." Asuka adds while breaking into tears. "I'm sorry Rei...but she cannot read your story now. I'm sorry."
Rei's eyes start to get teary too which she slumps her head down towards her controls, totally unable to comprehend the news she has received.
Rather than saying anything, she instead bursts into tears and cries to herself inside her cockpit over the news she has received regarding her now-deceases fellow classmate she wrote a story for.
