Northern Raven Studios presents:
An unforeseen scenario
An Evangelion Fanfiction by Athos
PROLOGUE
"I am Shinji Ikari!" he yelled. "The pilot of the Evangelion unit one!"
Gendo smirked. This time, the boy was really angry; he was shivering with rage.
'Poor Angel,' he thought, grinning, although Shinji wasn't able to see it. He nodded. All was going according to the scenario. Finally the Eva-01 would be in the next step of its evolution, leaving it ready to accomplish its part of the plan.
"Very soon, Yui. Only a few months more," he muttered while he ran towards the Command Center.
He could see Shinji's arrival, charging against the Angel and shouting, this time not in pain, but in extreme wrath. The sudden arrival of the Eva-01 surprised and overran the Angel, and the fourteenth God's avenger couldn't resist the assault and fell against a wall, breaking it and leaving free access to the Launching Pods. Shinji kicked the Angel again, pushing it to the elevators.
'Good idea,' thought Gendo, strangely proud of his son.
But the Angel wouldn't let him to do it without make more noise. It extended its arms, two plain and edged stripes, and launched it against the purple android, cutting the left arm of the EVA01. Notwithstanding, Shinji didn't let that the sudden pain lightened the onslaught, and he followed to push it towards the elevator.
The time seemed to pass much more slowly for Gendo when he saw the purple piece of metal fall over him. He felt the warm red blood of the Evangelion whipping him, and for the first time he become aware of another possibility in the scenario. His own death.
"Inconceivable," he muttered, while all the world became black around him.

Author's Notes
"Inconceivable!" is the war cry of Vizzini, from 'The princess bride'. A little tribute to one of my favourite film, I guess.
This was too much short to deserve a preread draft, so all the mistakes are only mine. Don't try to claim merit for them!
As always, feedback is welcome at chobits@hotpop.com
See you!
