I own not Neon Genesis Evangelion, for if I did I wouldn't be writing this... I'd turn it into an anime cartoon version ^_^

Eva Tours

It was a beautiful day and in the Katsuragi household things were normal. Highly suspicious.

Asuka and Shinji were eating breakfast and Misato was waiting patiently, (uh...forget that), Misato was waiting for them.

"How long does it take?!" she exclaimed. "Could you please hurry up? We're already late-"

"Because of you and your hair." interjected Asuka flatly.

Misato fumed, "Hey! You know the spray doesn't hold as well if it doesn't have my special ingredient in it."

"So of course, you had to go shopping to get more, you shouldn't drink so much of it." (Yes, it's true, Misato even mixes beer into her hairspray!)

Misato decided to ignore this comment and went down to the car to wait. Shinji made up his mind that this was a perfect opportunity to talk to Asuka. 'If no one else is around she might be nice, right?' his subconscious suggested.

"So, Asuka..." he started, met with 100%, Weapons-Grade look, "Nice weather today huh?" he managed to finish feebly. He instantly regreted this. Asuka had a look that suggested 'Talk to me again, and they won't find the body for months.'

"YOU, are talking to ME?" the words carried so much venom they put the largest snake in the world to shame.

Shinji wished his subconscious would commit suicide and take him with it.

"yes" he squeezed out. Then, something miraculous happened. Shinji instantly felt like he'd won the rollover prize on the Lotto.

"It is quite nice out" Asuka stated. "In fact, it seems a shame to be cooped up in a school or highly top secret underground complex." she savoured the look on his face. The kid looked like he'd just won the rollover prize on the Lotto. "What say we give ourselves a day off?"

Shinji exploded with excitement, "Yeahthat'dbereallycoolAsukaIcan'twaitwhere'rewegonnago?" he managed to say in around four 5ths of a nano-second. (Give or take)

"Well I was thinking we could go for a tour around Tokyo 3" she savoured this look with even more glee, she knew Shinji would've suggested the cinema, back row, little pervert. "Because there's supposed to be a whole city here but they really don't show much of it" she explained.

'They'...'Show' Shinji thought, just the teeniest bit confused. Then moved on, 'I really hoped she'd say cinema. Might have actually gotten away with something in the back row...'

And so began the day...

After abseiling down the back of the apartment block and ducking from tree to tree, the two truants made their way to a tour-bus on-off point.

Once they got there, they found it odd that the sign proudly stated 'Eva Tours', Asuka was about to point this out to Shinji, when she noticed he was currently preoccupied with staring at a rather lovely lady's breasts. Asuka immediately took this as a threat and so dealt with it in the only way she saw possible.

Shinji flew into the road just as the tour bus arrived...

...missing him by mere centimetres. (how could i kill off the main character?!? *launches into a big lecture on why you shouldn't kill off main characters* A somewhat higher function of my brain will now take over...)

The bus beeped it's horn at Shinji (or rather the driver beeped the bus' hor-"SHUTUP!" Damn, looks like Logic took over the story-telling), Shinji instantly dived out of harm's way...straight into the other lane on busy road. Damn good job that car had good brakes, huh?

Shinji crawled as fast as he could out of the road and onto the bus. He started to take out his wallet when he was interrupted,

"UH, kid, you can stand up now" said the bus driver in a slightly tired tone.

Shinji leapt to his feet, saluting then paid up and went to sit next to Asuka... =============================================================

Whoa! First chapter done! Wasn't actually planning on doing the story in chapters but looks like it's going that way. Oh well You know what they say...
