Fragile Life

By L.K.P.Santiago

I live as I do everyday

As I am me

Yet I am not I

What does that make me?

A face smiles back

As I gaze upon thee

A mirror?

My truth

By L.K.P.Santiago

An evil smile darkens

My lips quiver

It bleeds blood

I long for more

What is life without death?

I am not I

+

1.1 Asuka bright blue eyes turned white filled with anger and hatred. Cursing in tongues of old and ancient. Her bright blue eyes turning white.

2 Absolute Terror

A T field expanded. She growled no longer human, no longer angel.

SHRIEKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!

Bright white light appears to envelop around her. Arousing her anger.

"Turn your eyes away from my anger oh Lord, for I shall purge this evil here and now."

Shinji was lost in his emotions, someone else's emotion.

His hatred has drifted away his love was shattered. He hated someone for no apparent reason, making excuses.

Whispers from his mother's spirit consoling his heart. He drifted; he drifted till he could drift no more. Closing his tired eyes, sleepy, sleepy, sleepy…

"Why…"

+

Rei stared at the limp body of a person once known as the commander. Her heart raised, beating faster and faster. Mixed and unwanted emotions. She closed her eyes.

"LILITH!" Misato screamed as she expanded her A T field. Crouching, moving for the kill.

SHRIEKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!

The angels circled each other in what seemed to have been an endless waltz.

Eyeing each other, waiting for the first moves, waiting, waiting… and

CLASH!

'Misato's eyes,'

"She's no longer the Misato you know Asuka…" the angel Accisej whispered consoling her doubts.

Asuka nodded.

The fallen angel clawed almost uncontrollable, tearing her skin with malice. Blood…

She backed away, dodging the attack. She breathed unsteadily… deeply, daunting.

She whispers… "I will not loose."

'Misato's deformed form, the perfect vessel.' Abaddon thought.

Cold, dirty and emotionally unstable just like an angel. Fallen from grace.

Misato growled lowly… grinning as she licks the blood in her claws protruding from her fingers. Eyeing Asuka, she took a quick glance at Shinji and ran her fingers along her neck, ear to ear and made a sick flying kiss towards her.

Asuka shivered.

'She's never like this.'

"Don't be fooled Asuka!"

'I… I…'

'I'm scared…'

+

Rei burned inside her.

"Rei…"

It hurts, I… I'm hurt.

"Rei…"

I fear pain.

"Rei…"

I… death… don't come for me…

"REI!"

Rei shrieked as wings began to protrude from her shoulder blades. She shrieked as her blood, spilled on the floor, flowing towards the l c l in her awakening.

The fake image of Lilith hung, crucified disappeared.

"Turn your eyes from I, as I cast judgement upon the damned." She spoke eerily, monotonously.

Misato grinned.

"BRING"

"IT"

"ON"
