Nerv Ward Room 2501

"Shinji."

A silhouette form appears behind the darkness. Red eyes red crimson eyes.

*Crunch*

Who could have done this? She surveyed the room for possible life.

"My Shinji."

Remains of Shinji clones lay dead around the room.

ANGER

I'm so sorry, I wasn't here to protect you.

Rei lowers her head in defeat. Her clothes wet with LCL.

"I. I wasn't,"

*Siren*

Her eyes widened with surprise.

"Angels?"

Nerv Cage 03

Soryu Asuka Langley's eyes plead for forgiveness. Looking at Shinji's Unit 01.

"Shinji. I'm sorry"

She looks away.

She recalls a surprised Shinji when she kissed him. That was almost a year ago. Carefree times.

She smiled.

She closed her eyes, keeping the image of Shinji in her thoughts.

She spread her arms across the room.

Her absolute terror field began to spread across the room. Her eyes glow bright blue.

Soryu Asuka Langley began to rise.

Her wings spread from her back.

"I Soryu Asuka Langley, the 2nd child, the last archangel. Acissej arises. Show your true form Unit 01 evangelion. "

A low growl started to emit from Unit 01; something like a smirk turned to hatred, then a howl.

Unit 01's eyes bean to emit a cold yellow light.

She hadn't foreseen this.

"!"

Asuka's eyes widened with surprise.

Blinding white light begun to shine in front of her.

Unit 01 began to change.

Everything fades to black.

The spell has woken eva's final form.

The being began to rise. It clutched itself. Trying to stay alive. A child born of the angel and of the Eva.

He opened his eyes for the first time. A smile forms from the being's lips.

Asuka swooped down and held the boy tight.

Both angels began to glow.

Tears were streaming from her eyes.

Tears of love, tears of longing, tears of happiness.

She covered him with her wings.

Flashback

"Shinji.?"

Soryu Asuka Langley stood motionless.

The horror that was bestowed in her face.

Shinji was screaming.

*stab stab stab stab stab stab*

Shinji was squirmed wanting to get away. A girl was destroying Shinji's Life stream. The LCL has stopped flowing.

Shinji's eyes bulged. Blood was streaming from his eyes, his nose were bleeding.

She saw her best friend, Horaki Hikari. She shouldn't have brought her here.

She didn't know her friend could do such a thing.

She closed her eyes and screamed.

Admiring her handiwork Hikari grinned. She smiled lightly when she saw Asuka whimpering.

Asuka was trying to hold back the pain. The tears, Shinji's only means of survival, the real Shinji plug has been pulled off.

She closed her eyes.

Words kept repeating in her mind. She didn't believe this was happening. This couldn't be true. This is just a dream, a nightmare. She'll wake up soon and Shinji would be in her hands again.

"This isn't happening."

"Asuka."

"This isn't happening."

*A sinister cackle*

"This isn't happening."

"Don't give up."

"This isn't happening."

"This isn't happening."

"This isn't happening."

"But it is true."

Hikari grabbed her by the throat and pulled her closer. She could see the sorrow in Hikari's eyes. This wasn't her, but she couldn't bear it either.

Hikari's eyes began to fade and turned to black. It faded into black.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Something was trying to transfer into her. But it failed.

"What?"

The creature shrieked in disbelief. It was free from its host. Hikari lay dead on the floor.

It's shadowy form glaring at the second child.

"So it is you. Acissej, sister of Tabris, I should have known."

Asuka was covered in AT field. She was glowing with white light. Her true form has manifested.

"I'm her for you Asuka." a sweet voice trying to soothe her.

"Mother." she whispers.

Abadon smirked. The angel has awakened inside her. She didn't expect God's holy warrior to reside in this girl.

Asuka's wings were spreading. She held Hikari tight and both faded in the light.

The fallen angel sighed and Fades to black.

*Siren*

Asuka reappears in front of Ibuki Maya who was apparently drinking coffee.

"Miss Ibuki?"

"Asuka, what is it, OH MY GOD!" She stood stunned. Asuka was cradling Hikari like a daughter and, and she has wings?

The glass fell to the floor. Shattered into a thousand pieces.

Asuka extended her hand. Her face unsure.

"I'm, I'm an angel Miss Ibuki."

"Stay back Asuka." a woman screamed.

*bang*

Her at field deflected the shot.

Barriers of the heart, she thought.

Asuka looked back, it was Ritsuko.

She didn't smile. Ritsuko was the one responsible for this after all.

Hikari whimpered as if dreaming.

Asuka caressed her cheek and laid her on the floor.

She waved her hand at Ritsuko, the doctor flew at the direction of the door. Crashing, she lay stunned. Blood was oozing from her forehead.

"That's for playing God."

She turned to Maya and smiled bleakly.

"Take care of her."

Maya just nodded.

Asuka smiled. Light began to surround her and she faded. She faded to white.

Now he was back in her arms. Sleeping like a child.

"You're still the first stage of evolution Shinji."

She whispered. Carrying the child in her arms.

God will have his heaven and everything will be alright as it was before. She thought.

"It will be all up to you my Shinji. in the end, it will be all up to you."
