Chapter 5.
--Fan Fiction--
Shinji and Rei were home watching TV. After the failed attempt by Shinji and Asuka to defeat the 7th Angel, his father Gendo had remained in HQ to try and sort out a plan for the next assault against the target.
The doorbell rang and Shinji stood to open the door. He was surprised to see Gendo on the other side of it.
"Dad? I thought you were in going to be working in late today." Shinji asked
"We've been able to formulate a plan." Gendo simply said. "Now, let's go, we don't have much time to waste."
Shinji said his goodbyes to Rei, who was curios of where he was going, but didn't ask anything. Soon enough Gendo was driving Shinji to where-ever it was he was taking him.
"So." Shinji began. "What kind of plan have you come up with?"
"I don't have the details." Gendo answered in a monotone voice. "Major Katsuragi will explain the specifics."
Shinji looked at his father with a puzzled expression. Soon the car slowed down and parked in front of a nice-looking apartment block. They both got out and entered the building. Inside was an elevator and they made their ascent to the 5th floor.
They walked over to one of the apartment doors and Gendo politely knocked. They heard some shuffling from inside and then the door opened. The person that greeted them was someone Shinji hadn't expected to see.
"You!" Asuka shrieked. "What are you doing here?"
"Now, now Asuka," A voice came from behind, and soon Misato Katsuragi herself appeared from one of the rooms in the apartment. "This is the plan I told you about before."
"All you said was that we were going to have a surprise guest!" She protested.
"Well, major Katsuragi" Gendo suddenly spoke out. "I'm sure you know how to handle this situation." With that he turned and left, leaving Shinji at the door with a confused expression on his faces. Shinji then turned to Misato and Asuka.
"Err, exactly what is the plan?" Shinji asked Misato, who winks at him and motions for him to enter.

Misato, Asuka and Shinji were all seated at the kitchen table. The two pilots had just been told what "the plan" was, and they weren't looking too happy about it. "Let me get this straight." Asuka said calmly. "You want us to sleep, eat, and do everything together for the next 4 days?!"
"Yep," replied Misato, trying to stifle an explosion of laughter. This did not please the German redhead. Shinji actually though he could see steam rising from her ears as her face starting getting redder with rage. That's when he decided he should have a say in this.
"Misato, exactly why are we doing this?" He asked, trying to divert Asuka's short temper.
"Simple!" She said over-enthusiastically. "By getting you two to work together in your daily lives, hopefully you'll be able to work better together while piloting the Eva!"
Both Asuka and Shinji looked at her as though she was some sort of retard.
"And to make sure things are going the way they should," Misato continued, "You'll do some co-ordination drills at the end of each day using the set up at the back."
"You mean that Twister game?" Asuka asked with wavering patience.
"Asuka," Misato looked at her, "That is some highly sensitive equipment."
"Yeah, Yeah." She then turned to Shinji. "Hey Third Child, aren't you going to say something about this?"
"To be honest, I don't really mind." Both Misato and Asuka were very surprised at this. Shinji then turned his head to face Asuka and smiled. "It will give me a chance to get to know you better."
For saying that, he war rewarded with a painful slap. One that that rang and echoed around the apartment long after it had struck.
"And what-ever gave you the idea that I want to get to know YOU, Third Child" With that she stood up and walked in to her room, slamming the door behind her.
Misato looked worryingly at Shinji and tried to say something. However he spoke out before she could.
"This is going to be interesting" he then smirked and made his way to the room that Misato had told him was his for the time being.
Misato wasn't sure how to react to this, so she did the only thing she knew how. She got drunk, and made her way to her own room where she collapsed on her bed and fell asleep seconds later.

To be continued
Well, I'm glad I got this chapter out of the way. The sync training will begin in Chapter 6. You can look forward to a relationship between Asuka and Shinji sometime soon, and that's pretty much all I have to say.
