Ch. 8: Final Battle on Earth
"Major, bad news," said one of the NERV mission specialists, "The Zentrati weapons, have recovered at a much faster rate then what we expected, they'll be recompensing the attack any time now."
"Damn!" screamed Misato, "We got lucky, our two pilots have gotten over their problems, I think, they should be ready to deploy."
"What about, . er. what happened last time?"
"We, or that is to say, I," said a tall dark figure with a cold voice, he held up a remote, "have the solution in hand. I can keep Anubis under, . control."
"Yes, Admiral Aumon, sir," said the mission specialist timidly.
Back on the battle field:
The enemy AT Field dropped, and the strange signal began to reappear.
"Brian? You ok? Didn't you get enough sleep, your eyes look a little blood shot." Asuka commented.
No answer.
"Brian, respond. We can't win if you don't take to me."
No answer.
"Respond Damn it!"
"Kill them, kill them all," said a cold dark voice, which sounded like it came from both Anubis and Eva02.
"No, .," said Brian with an almost timid tone in his voice, "I won't kill them all."
"What do you mean all? There are only two targets. Who's that voice any way?"
"Kill them, kill them all!" commanded the dark voice.
"Kill Zentrati, . not Asuka, and not, . and not like. last time," Brian said sounding depressed.
"Brian, who are you arguing with? And what do you mean, not like last time?"
"Kill them all!" commanded the voice again, "Kill, Kill, Kill."
"Asuka, run while you can, I can't. Ah--!"
"Yes it hurts doesn't it Brian. Now Kill them all, NOW!" commanded the voice yet again.
"Must kill," said Brian blandly in a voice that was definitely not his own, "Must kill them all now."
There was a flash and Eva02 was left standing alone, as cold laughter reverberated all around her.
Anubis began, a very controlled yet, very fierce attack.
"Use the Vector Cannon," said the voice, still laughing, "Kill them all with the Vector Cannon."
"Vector Cannon full power," said Brian in the same bland voice, "Die, all of you Die."
A huge blast of light, which incinerated both targets at the same time. As Asuka watched, she slowly realized that the beam of light was pivoting around Anubis, and I was headed for her. She saw no escape.
"No!" cried Misato, "Asuka, and get out of there, hurry!" she turned to face Admiral Aumon, "do something! You're supposed to be able to stop this!"
He just stood there, laughing a cold malicious laugh.
Asuka was so afraid; she was unable to blankly stare into the on coming beam that was now headed strait for her. Her hands fell from the Eva controls.
"We'll me again, . Brain, . you're still my, . friend, . I won't hold this against you, . and. I think, . I..." Asuka said weakly as she began to fall into nothingness.
"No.." gasped Brain, sounding a little like his usual self, "Not this again!"
There was a flash.
The laughing suddenly stopped.
An odd silence filled the control room.
All that was heard was the sound of explosions and burning metal.
Asuka, only remembering a blinding flash awoke in the hospital. Her eyes, not being used to the dim light, saw only a hazy whiteness, and a bright light above her.
"So, this is death. It's so peaceful" Asuka thought, before sitting up.
As she became used to the light she realized, she wasn't dead, heck, she hardly had a scratch on her.
"Where.. Where am I?" she asked groggily.
"You're in the hospital," Misato said getting up from a chair near the bed, "How are you felling?"
"What happened?" she said shaking her head, then added, "where's Brian?" as she saw he wasn't any where in the room.
"Brian, Some how. beat the nano bots. He got them to explode. Then. he. got between you and the Vector Cannon beam." Misato said solemnly.
"That's great." Asuka said happily, " so where is he now?"
"You don't understand. Those nano bots where linked to his brain."
"Ya, I know, Dingo told me."
"When the nano bots exploded, it. hit his brain with. thousands of electrical impulses, and.. A shock wave . literally rippled through his body. Brian's.. on the verge. of.. Death."
"What." Asuka said, so shocked that se almost sounded like Rei.
"Brian. sacrificed himself to save you, . to save us all. His last under stand able words were, 'No More' and 'I'm Sorry'."
"Where is he." Asuka said sharply.
"Asuka, you need to rest.."
"Where is he" interrupted Asuka
"Right across the hall" Misato finally said after a few seconds of silence.
Asuka got up, stumbled, and ran across the room, through the hall, and in to the next room, where she saw Brian, hardly breathing. She ran to his bedside, and sat in one of the few empty spaces in the room. She was by the bed stand, and she saw a bright bluish green statue, that looked a little like his Anubis Unit.
"Don't Die Brian. You can't leave me, . not yet. not that I finally found another true friend, so don't die, not. yet."
Asuka was on the verge of tears, her whole body was trembling. She placed a hand on the bed stand to steady herself. She accidentally knocked the statue over. It fell over and hit the side of Brian's head.
"Oh, oops. I'll just get that."
She reached out for it.
Strangely, before she could grab it, the statue glowed and became some kind on strange greenish liquid that moved to the back of Brian's neck and slowly absorbed into his skin.
"What the hell?"
Brian sat up, looking rather confused, rubbed the back of his neck, and suddenly a look of shock and unbelievable bliss fell over his face has he felt nothing, but his own skin.
"Brian," Asuka exclaimed happily, "You're ok, I'm so happy you're ok."
"Asuka?" Brian said, still looking confused, "What are you doing here? And why do I fell like I got hit by a train?"
He looked down, only to see her clinging to his waist, and tears running down her face.
The next day, Brian and Asuka were aloud to leave the hospital.
"Wow," said Asuka, "who would have thought metatron could heal you just because you had nano bots in your system, even dead inactive ones."
"Yeah, but." Brian added, "to think I could have died because Admiral Aumon was a, Zentrati spy. It's just too much for me to handle."
"Yep, it's a good thing he's locked up."
"I'm not."
"Why, I though you would be glad he's in jail after all he did to you."
"I want to kill the ass whole. But the. no. he's locked up, all safe and sound from my wrath."
"I'll seconded that motion, said a voice in side Brian's head, that Asuka didn't hear, "How dare he try to control the Great Anubis, I'll see to it that he'll come with me to hell!"
"Brian, don't let that get you down, because the Zentrati lost their little trump card, they've started to with draw."
"Ya, but, that means I have to return to the colonies, there are lots of supplies that have to be delivered and they need every runner they can get to escort it, so Zentrati rebels don't steal them."
"Oh, . I guess.. Your right."
"Um, . Asuka?"
"Ya?"
"Would you like to. um. come. with me? I mean, NERV just defends Earth, and the SCM is completing the Eva Orbital Frame armors, so soon the Eva's will be able operate in space, we could have a. lot of fun, exploring space."
"I'd love too! But, do you think I can?"
"We'll soon find out."
As the two walked together towards the SCM space shuttle that was on the main airfield at NERV HQ, each was glade they found each other. Asuka knew Brian was one of the few people that could keep up with her. Brian knew he could finally start getting close to people, and he was happy that he could stay with Asuka, she was like the sister he never had.
Well, there you go. Part 1 is done. I guess you people will be wanting some hints on what Part 2 is going to be like. Well, if that's what you be wanting, who am I to stand in the way. Part 2 is going to start out a little like Pilot Candidate (Part 2's extra chapters are going to fill in on what happens in some blanks I left in Ch.s 10 and 11). What happens when the Eva Pilots (all of them) go off to space and learn how to fight in space? What will the New Eva equipment be like? And who is this Bitch girl that keeps harassing the 'Earthlings'. Find out in Part 2, coming soon to a Computer Screen near you.
Hope you didn't mind this cheesy closing, I wanted to end on a comical note.
