Nadesico: New Recruit Joe!
by DoomaWriter
Author's notes: First and foremost, I claim no ownership of any sorts to Nadesico. Seriously, would this fanfic be free if I owned Nadesico?
Hello, loyal Doomafans and new comers! This story doesn't neccessarily take place during any special time within the Nadesico timeline, but for those of you who need to know, it'll most likely be around the time when Megumi was interested in Akito.
And you know the rules: The more of you who review, the quicker I put up new chapters! Let me know you exist! And now, YOU GET BURNING!
Part 1: Arrival and Disruption
The story begins with the Nadesico in space. The Jovian Lizards haven't attacked for days and all is realitivly peaceful. On the bridge, Yurika was asleep and drooling a little on her counsel. Megumi reads a magazine while Minato clipped her fingernails. When one flew off and hit Megumi's face, Minato would just smile nervously. Ruri plays a video game where the Kanji symbols for Left and Right were beating the pixels out of each other. Her game is cut off by a screen that says "INCOMING" and she looks up, her monotone expressions hinting to confusion.
Akito sat in his dark., dank room, exercising his mind the best way he knew how. "Let's go, Gekiganger 3!" Akito shouted, singing the theme song to his favorite anime. "With Yurika and Megumi occupied, I'll finally be able to watch my episode in peace!" A window screen opens up and displays Ruri's face in front of the television. "Figures."
"Attention all crew members, " Ruri began. "An incoming Aestivalis is about to dock within the Nadesico. It appears to be friendly and claims to be from Nergal." During her speech, Akito tries to look around the message to his television screen. "All mechanics clear the runway, and pilots are to meet it upon arival." Fed up, Akito shoves the screen aside to get a clear view. Suddenly, fifty more windows pop up one after another, surrounding him and blocking all view. "That means you too, Aktio."
"I'm just a cook! What's the point of me going? Just let me watch my show in peace, dammit!"
Seeing him about to show his bipolar fits again, Ruri simply said "Baka" and closed all of her screens. Back at the bridge, Ruri brings up a screen with a box that's labeled "Tenkawa's Room" and taps a few keys.
"Finally!" Akito says to himself as the intro screen fades away. Suddenly, his television screen turns off. Soon, all the appliances go off, sealing him in total darkness. "Damn you, Ruri."
A bunch of crew members run through the halls as Akito struggles to manually open his door wide enough to get through. Ryoko stops and sees the sweating Akito who obviously needed help. "Oi, Tenkawa! Get your ass in gear!" She then runs off, leaving Akito to fend for himself.
Over the intercom, "Space locks sealed and Aestivalis secured. Hanger is safe for human occupation."
Everyone look at awe at the new Aesti. It was a space design colored....pink? The cockpit opens and a male figure dressed in a blue suit and helmet hops down the mech to the floor.
"I wonder who the pilot is." Hikaru said to herself, standing inbetween Ryoko and Izumi.
"Well, judging from the color, " Uribatake said with a smile, "We can tell what type of guy he is. I mean seriously, what type of self-respecting man would fly a pink Aestivalis?"
All the crew members begin to laugh and Akito soon joins them saying, "Sorry, I'm late. Hey, what's so funny?"
Uribatake quickly replied, "Nothing." The sounds of muffled laughter could be heard from everyone.
The pilot grasps his helmet and takes it off, and everyone gasps. He had long black hair and smiled in a way that made all the ladies blush. "Good evening, " he spoke in a silky voice. "My name's, well, nevermind about that. Just call me Joe."
Akito looked up with widened eyes, "Joe? He doesn't mean Joe as in - " His words are cut off as Yurika groggily walked in, rubbing some sleep from her eyes. Jun, Ruri, and Goat followed closely behind.
Joe looked up toward's Akito's Aesti. "Tell me, who is the man who pilots this great definition of masculinity?"
Hikaru gave a confused look, "What, you mean the red one?" She is instantly floored by a punch in the back of the head from Ryoko.
"ARE YOU CALLING ME A MAN!? I AM THE LOVIEST WOMAN HERE AND IF ANYONE DENIES IT I'LL KICK THEIR ASS!!"
Izumi gave out a creepy little chuckle, "Ryoko the warrior of womanhood."
Ryoko runs over and grabs Izumi by the collar. "THE HELL IS THAT SUPPOSE TO MEAN!? YOU WANT A PIECE OF ME!?"
Akito tip toes past the exploding Ryoko - who currently had Izumi in a headlock - and walks over to the newcomer. "Um, actually, that one's mine." Joe turned around quickly and looked Akito up and down with a suspicious look. He then thrusted his face a few inches away from Akito's. "W-What is it?"
Joe relaxed and began to chuckle to himself. "You're the pilot? Someone as meek as you shouldn't be anything more than this ship's, i don't know, cook or something." A sweatdrop appeared on Akito's brow. Joe pressed on his suit and the top half dissolved away, showing a muscular upper body which caught the eye of every woman in the area. "Now this is the figure of a pilot!"
"And how!" Hikaru agreed.
Ruri walked up to Joe and stared at him with a blank expression. "Welcome to the Nadesico. May I ask why you are here?"
Joe looked down on her with a look of curiosity. He bent down to look into her eyes and then began poking her face. "Is this an android?" He asked, pulling at the sides of her mouth. "It looks so real. But you can easily tell its not human."
"Just my luck. The new pilot would prove to be another fool......You can let go of my face now." Joe looked up to see Yurika and instantly forgot about Ruri as he shoved her out of the way. "Why hello there. You must be Captain Misumaru. Its a pleasure." Joe smile was only met with a sleepy face in return.
"Yeah, yeah whatever. Now why did you come?" Yurika asked, not really aware of the situation.
"I was assigned as a replacement for a pilot who was said to of fallen on duty."
Shock came to everyone. Akito the most. "Is he-" Akito thought out loud. "A replacement of Gai? Does that mean....I'm no longer a pilot?"
To be continued....
Author's comments: Chapter 1 is completed! What shall happen now? Will Akito never pilot again? Is Joe the great pilot he seems to think he is? Will Ruri stab him in his sleep? Find out on the next Chapter of Nadesico: New Recruit Joe!
Ruri: Even the author sounds like a fool.
