Nothing to Lose

NOTES: I don't own any of this, other than ACCs. Gainax owns EVA, Wizkids/FASA Corp. owns Battletech.
This won't impair NGB, just gettin crap outta my system. Don't have anythin to do with the NG:B story. Just junk that's random. STFU ALREADY!!!!!!! It's comin soon....

"Here's a man," said SEELE 05. "That cannot be bent,"
"That is because we have not tried hard enough," SEELE 07 ventured.
"No," Keel said. "It is because he has nothing to lose. No loves, no attatchments other than his lance that will rip him asunder."
"Then let us get his lance. We could-"
"No, you fool," Keel said quietly. "Even that will not bend him. He will just fight until either he or they or both die."
"Then we are doomed....." SEELE 03 said.

It was cold, and it was raining. Yet there was still gym outside. Mike, Touji, Shinji, and Sean were out on the track, while Kris, Rei, Asuka, John, and Kensuke sat timing them. "They're crazy..." Asuka muttered.
"Maybe, but that's the Cap'n for ya,"John said.
"He is running far faster than them. He will catch a cold if he is not careful," Rei noted.
"Ah, well that's also the Cap'n for you," Kris said. "There's a man that literally has nothing except his life to lose. No loves, no family that is anywhere near here, or where we were. Nothing,"
"Is that why he fights?"
Kris thought a moment. "Perhaps. Perhaps it's because it's the only thing he can do. Maybe it's the only place where having nothing is an asset, rather than a handicap. There is nothing anyone can hold over him to force his hand,"
"Not even you? I thought soldier bonds were stronger than that!" Kensuke piped in.
"Not even us. He knows that we look after ourselves. He won't bow to demands they make for our safety, he'll just fight until he's dead,"
Asuka looked towards the distant figures running on the track. "How awful... At least we HAVE something.... He has nothing?"
Kris shook his head. "Never has, and never will. He's only loved once, and that got shoved into his face. He has never been loved, other than by family,"
Johnathan suddenly laughed. "Kinda funny, but that song he's listened to lately, is almost written for him.... That Linkin Park thingamabob crap junk whaever it is..."
Kris nodded. "Yea. Is called 'Somewhere I Belong....' Kinda funny, but he IS where he belongs. In that cockpit, he's more at home than anywhere else. Can't tell where the machine ends and he begins. I think his Battlemech is the only thing that he DOES love..."
"How horrid." Asuka whispered. "In love with a doll......"
Suddenly Rei yelled. "TIME IS 4:17! GOOD MILE!"
Mike walked over, and nodded. "Any newcomers?"
Kris nodded. "Lessgo"
Mike nodded, and, for an instant, Asuka and Rei both looked into his eyes. ^Pain... So much pain......^ were their thoughts.
Mike turned and began walking back to the track circle.

END NOTES: Hey. Kinda a darkfic there. One shot. Anyway, there's symbolism. Try and guess the symbols. I'll tell you in awhile.
