Ch. 29: The Magi's Troubles, The Insane Tests, A Gift, Return from the Shadows, and A Debt Repaid
"Dr. Akaji!" shouted Gendo, "Status report!"
"Sir, we can't stop them!" shouted Ritsuko, "these 4 AIs have free reign over the Magi. They're getting around everything!"
"What are they after?"
"It looks like personal files......NO! They're looking up physiological profiles of the pilots!"
"Shut them down!"
"We're trying!"
"Pull the plug!"
"But sir, if we do that, who knows what could happen!"
"Do it!"
"Yes sir."
Suddenly all computer lights went dim, as the Magi shut down. Then with warning, it rebooted.
"NO! These AI's rebooted the Magi! They must be tapping power in from our life support! We can't stop them!" shouted Ritsuko.
"Impossible!" exclaimed Fuyutski.
"Major Katsuguri," commanded Gendo, "Begin preparing the pilots for battle immediately!"
"Yes sir!" shouted Misato, before she rushed out of the room.
"They found the reports!" shouted Ritsuko, "NO! We found ANOTHER AI, there are 5 of them!"
"System Crash!" shouted (insert name of your favorite bridge bunny).
All lights went out. After a minute or so, they came back on.
"Report!" barked Gendo.
"The Magi is.....safe.....no errors detected......but.....we seem to have a new fire wall.........." Ritsuko said astonished.
"Make sure this doesn't happen again."
"Yes sir."
"Misato! You're CRAZY!" shouted Asuka, "How are we supposed to win against a simulation, if we have to face 10 of each angel we have faced, at the SAME TIME!"
"I agree with Pilot Soryu," stated Rei, "This simulation is a zero win scenario, especially sense you have added all of SEELE's mass produced Evas."
"SEE! Even Wonder Girl agrees with me!"
"You're not supposed to win," said Misato, "You're supposed to last as long as you can, then, after you lose, you have to out last your last time when we run it again. Your battle is in 3 days."
"This can't prepare us though!" retorted Shinji, "Our battle will be in space! Not on Earth!"
"SEE! Even your pet agrees with me Misato!" shouted Asuka once more.
"Misato, mobilize the Evas," said Ritsuko over the COM, "We have 5 unidentified objects approaching."
"Not now!" groaned Misato.
"Where are they," asked Asuka angrily, "Where are they hiding."
"Asuka! Get out of the way!" shouted Shinji pulling Eva02 to one side.
"What was that for!"
"Look where you where," stated Rei.
Asuka looked to where she had been, and saw 21 energy beams that would have ripped her Eva to screeds.
"Ha, ha, ha," laughed a voice, "I thought you might like that 21 gun salute."
They turned and saw the strange mech from several days ago. By it's side, where 2 larger Mechs, as well as 2 smaller mechs.
"Here, I'll give you another one."
21 more beams came from 1 of the 2 large mechs, but this time, the Evas dodged them easily.
"Eat Vector Cannon!" shouted Asuka.
The three Evas fired their Vector Cannons, at the five mechs.
"Funny thing about energy," commented the voice, as the other large mech moved to take the full force of the attack, "It's path can be," the mech set up a shield, "altered," the blasts where absorbed by the shield and sent back at the Evas as one VERY large beam.
"Shit!" shouted Asuka, as they dived out of the way.
"If you thought that was bad, watch this,"
The 2 smaller mechs began to grow until the where Eva sized.
"I don't like where this is going," commented Shinji.
The 2 Eva sized mechs shot forward. One attacked Asuka, while the other headed towards Rei and Shinji.
Asuka easily, dodged the attacks the mech was throwing at her, because she recognized them.
The other mech was dropping mines that Rei easily shot down, but, unfortunately, while Rei was busy with the mines, the mech got behind Shinji, and held him in place.
The 2 large mechs, (the 21 gun on and the shield one) moved forward.
One moved above Shinji (the shield one), while the other moved a distance way from the other, then fired it's 21 beams of death, at the shield mech, who, had it's shield out.
Just as the 21 beams had become one in the shield, and shot at Eva01, a black hole was created that sucked up the beam before it reached Eva01. Then, the black hole was sealed up.
"You would be dead right now," said the voice, pointing at Eva01, "your friend is out of ammo," it said, pointing at Eva00, "and, your other friend, isn't even aware of your problems," it said, while pointing at Eva02.
The attacking mechs, suddenly exploded, leaving only the Gravity controlling mech.
"This is why I like mobile dolls. So expendable. Before I leave, I have a little gift for you."
"A gift?" asked Asuka, sounding doubtful.
"Yes, here,"
The mech lightly tossed a spear, tip up, towards Eva00.
"Is that........the......." stuttered Shinji.
"The Lance of Longinous. I here by return it to you. You really should leave your weapons laying around in space."
The mech then left.
"That, was interesting," stated Shinji.
"Ya, but hey, I'll take that over Misato's bogus simulation," commented Asuka.
On a small shuttlecraft, headed for Earth's atmosphere, a cell phone rang, and an 18-year-old boy, answered it in a shadowy corner.
"Hello?"
"I just finished repaying my debt to you. They now have the lance, and I gave them a FEW pointers. I owe you nothing anymore."
"Ya, we're even now. I have a question though, why where they looking up physiological reports on the Eva pilots? That's not their style. I might have had to raise my hand if, I hadn't decided to stop them before they found and downloaded the reports."
"I had no part in that. Though, I did advise them against it."
"Good to know some of you still have some ethics."
"You're one to talk about 'ethics'! Oh, I have one more thing to tell you."
"What? Oh, let me guess, you plan on killing me. Ni, thinks he's killed me, so, he'll argue on that point."
"Ni, is dead."
"Oh..........."
"Good bye, next we meet......."
The boy turned off his cell phone.
