Okay, here's chapter 2 of my story. I'm hoping to continue it right along
till the End of Evangelion. Although I'm focusing mostly on the characters
at this point, I'll include some battles against some of the Angels later
on.
--Fan Fiction-
It was a normal day in the famous Tokyo 3 School, housing a class known as 2A. Most of the occupants fell in to the category of normal students, with the exception of the Evangelion pilots who studied there.
"Shinji, it was sure nice of your dad to let us go on this trip" Kensuke said, never turning his head away from his camera, which was re-playing some of the footage he recorded yesterday. "And on top of that, I got to see an Evangelion in action!"
"It was no problem guys, you know my dad. It doesn't take much to convince him" Shinji replied.
"That girl though.. Arrrgh!" Touji suddenly burst in. "I'm so glad I don't have to see her again, she had a serious attitude problem."
"She sure can pilot though." Shinji said, as he remembers the battle he had witnessed from the observation deck of 'Over the Rainbow' as she single- handedly defeated the 6th Angel.
The Sensei entered the class, and after the usual "Stand, Bow, Sit" routine from Hikari, he started to make an announcement to the class.
"I'd like you all to welcome a new student to our class." He gestured to the door, and a girl with flowing crimson hair entered the room.
"It's her!" Shrieked Touji.
The girl wrote her name down on the board and then spoke aloud to the class. "Hello, my name's Asuka, Asuka Langley Sohruy. I'm pleased to meet you all" She then caught sight of the three boys that were seated near the back. Her eyes met Shinji's, who smiled when she looked at him.
"Thank you miss Sohruy, feel free to take a seat anywhere you like." The Sensei spoke to her, from his position beside the window. She made her way across the room and took the empty seat next to Shinji.
"I knew I'd see you again, I just didn't think it would be so soon." Shinji spoke quietly never taking his eyes from the front of the class.
"Don't get any funny ideas, Third. I'm only here to improve my Kanji." She said, with a somewhat menacing tone.
"I'm not getting any ideas." He replied, with a slight smirk on his face.
They spend the rest of the lesson in silence, *trying* to stay awake with the Sensei's constant blabbering about his childhood. The lunch bell rang and the students made their exit from the class.

"Hey Shinji!" He turned and saw Asuka coming up from behind. "So, where is she?"
"Who?" Shinji asked bewildered.
"The 1st child of course! She's here too isn't she?" Asuka spoke loudly. Shinji gestured to a girl sitting on a bench on her own, reading a book. They made their way down to talk to her.
"Rei, this is Asuka, Asuka, this is Rei." Shinji introduced the two.
"Hello 1st Child. Let's be good friends!" Asuka spoke aloud.
"Why?" Asked Rei, never looking up from her book.
"Because it would be so convenient!" Asuka replied with confidence.
Rei looked up at Shinji, who gave her a smile and nodded. She stood up and looked at the Second Child. "I see no problem in that." Asuka produced a small smile.
Shinji left to go and eat lunch with Touji and Kensuke, so Asuka was left with Rei. After a bit of low-key conversation, Asuka suddenly burst out.
"Wait a second, you live with Shinji?" Asuka looked at Rei with a surprised expression on her face.
"Yes." Rei replied. "His father took me in when I was very young. I have no real parents."
"Oh"
"Shinji is one of the few people I have complete trust in." Rei said.
"Why is that?" Asuka pressed on.
"He accepted me for who I am. He is a good person." Rei told Asuka.

Meanwhile, Shinji was having Lunch with Kensuke and Touji, when a girl approached the trio.
"Erm, Excuse me, Shinji." He looked up at her. "One of my friends asked me to give you this" She hands him a note and then rushes off.
"Not another one" Kensuke said.
Shinji opens the note, reads it and sighs aloud.
"Shin-man, why don't you ever accept these invitations?"
"I'll accept when a girl asks me in person" Shinji said after putting the note in his pocket. His friends looked at him for a second and then shrugged.
To Be Continued.
