Disclaimer: I don't own Eva, Gainax and ADV do, I don't own any other animes I just decide to throw in for a laugh. One such anime would be RahXephon which is owned by Bones and ADV, the characters are used but there is no major influence of the series, don't worry hardcore eva fans, there won't be any Dolems and Angels attacking at once or anything. If there are any characters that appear that don't seem to be from Eva or RahXephon then I have thrown them in and they are mine, you can't have them! (Without asking anyway) Waya and Lilith would be such characters. Now then, on with the show.
Title : Evangelion The New Testament
Chapter Title : Duty of the Father
Shinji stood in the middle of the playground, he had not stepped foot in the school in over ten years, now he was forced to do so for the sake of his children. It was a cold night, the lights had gone off and there were only the ones from the school that remained on, the reason, Shinji mused, was that the school probably had a generator. He stood then constantly checking the clock, waiting for it to strike midnight, it was almost like it never came. Between glances he tried to figure out where everyone was, Misato and Asuka were down the far end of the street opposite the school, Touji, Rei and Haruka were hovering above their heads a few hundred feet up in a silent helicopter. He waited, getting more and more agitated, the ground quaking more and more with each moment.
"I told them the quakes were you."
"What!? Show yourself!"
Shinji looked up to the roof of the school, there were five figures and they were clearly holding Waya and Lilith. They jumped from the roof and landed in the middle of the playground, they all gave Shinji the once over.
"He doesn't look so tough, I could take him!"
"Don't be fooled Hate."
"Who are you freaks?"
They all looked at each other, they then separated out a little and went for a more formal introduction.
"Okay the Ikari Shinji-kun, we are the five deadly sins."
"I thought there were seven deadly sins."
"Well we could only find five and...that isn't important! You are up against from your left: the beautiful lady, Lust; the copy cat, Envy; the unsatisfied, Greed; the violent, Hate; and of course, me, your old friend Ayato Kamina, otherwise known as Pride."
Shinji gasped as Ayato stepped forward and threw his sunglasses on the floor, his eyes were blood red and he didn't look happy. Shinji took his attention from Ayato back to his kids and gave Waya a questioned look.
"Oh they won't be going anywhere, Greed likes to have everything, so when others are around he can sometimes borrow their strength. That is why your son hasn't tried to blast us yet, although it would be quite futile."
"Ayato, I don't know what I did to make you so vengeful but don't bring them into this!"
"I don't care what happens to them, I just care what happens to you and because you are the one who controlled Third Impact and made us what we are...they all want you to die more than the girl who embodied Third Impact!"
Lilith looked shocked, she hadn't been told about her part in Third Impact and they had always tried to tiptoe around the name Lilith when talking about the angel...god...thing. Ayato stood and even turned to gauge the girl's reaction, it was satisfactory, the one known as Hate was staring so intently almost like he was mopping up the negative emotions. Shinji stepped forward and got out his sword, he held it out without activating it.
"Here's the deal, you let them go and you can have me."
"You don't seem to understand, we have you."
Shinji suddenly noticed the sky glisten, through the black out the AT field that they had created when they arrived was practically invisible. He was trapped, it was likely the helicopter was above the field when it was created and Asuka was definitely out of range. He was alone on this one.
"Like a mouse in a trap..."
"How delicious..."
They all looked at Ayato, although he had been with them the shortest time his single-handed hatred for Shinji gave them a half decent leader. He stepped forwards towards Shinji then looked back at his teammates.
"Lust, you and Envy stay out here with me, Hate you make sure that Greed keeps the children inside until we're finished."
"Hey! I want a piece of this bastard, you can't give me a babysitting job!"
"Fine, if you do this you can kill both of the kids yourself, with no help and we won't object to any method you choose."
"It can be as perverted as I like?"
"As perverted as you like."
"Fine, come on kids."
Hate gripped Waya and dragged him in by the collar while Greed quite carefully carried Lilith inside. As Waya got further away he could no longer see his father's face, Shinji had his head down and the shadow from the school covered it. The moment the doors closed behind the two children there was an explosion, it broke all the glass and threw the two Lilim to the floor. Waya tried to help Lilith up, they watched as Greed and Hate opened the door to check what had happened. Waya looked at his sister and she nodded, they took off down the hall, after a few seconds the two Lilim noticed and gave chase. Outside as the dust cleared, Shinji was floating in the middle of a crater, is eyes white with hate, there were two large Angel-like wings behind him and the sword was longer than it had ever been before. Ayato pulled himself out from under some dust and debris and saw his comrades do the same. He smiled then walked over to the edge of the crater.
"That is exactly what we want."
Suddenly two large wings spread out from Ayato and Envy's backs, then the swords seemed to magically appear on both. Envy's sword grew to the same length as Shinji's while Ayato's was a little bigger. They jumped and flew over to Shinji, Shinji flipped and the two of them missed, an aerial battle was in progress. The others had noticed the AT field and Asuka was shivering from her firing position, Misato put a hand on her shoulder.
"Are you alright Asuka?"
"It's Ayato...Ayato's a Lilim..."
"What!? Your boyfriend!?"
"Yeah...I never knew...until Touji said they had followed one in Germany...I have to go!"
"Asuka!"
Asuka dropped the gun, she ran down the stairs of the building and out towards the AT field, she put her hands on it and pushed as hard as she could. The tears in her eyes were glowing as she pushed right through the field, appearing on the other side. Misato had time to stand in wonder but Asuka had to get to the school, she had no time to wonder 'how?' Touji saw the field and was trying to jump out but Rei was gripping him so hard he could barely breathe.
"It isn't time yet!"
"I don't care! Shinji needs our help!"
Meanwhile Shinji was exchanging blows with the two Lilim, the swords would collide with an explosion and while flying Shinji used his AT field to throw a rock at Lust. She held out her hand and the rock got eroded like it had just experienced thousands of years of time in an instant. He looked a little shocked, then Ayato delivered a powerful kick to Shinji's head. Shinji bounced off the floor, then lay there for a moment, it wasn't working, no matter how hard he tried he could get the two of them. His eyes returned to their normal blue colour and he picked himself off the ground, he looked at the two and tried to figure out what was going on. He had noticed that since hitting the ground the two had lost their wings, so he tried to figure out what they did by their powers.
"So let me guess, Envy can copy the power you are using so that it can work against you?"
They didn't answer, they just continued to walk.
"Well if that is right then Pride, can't stand the thought of losing, so he would probably get something bigger and better than the one he was fighting. And Lust, I think she can't touch anything without reducing it to dust so the one thing she wants is human contact."
"Very good, but that doesn't do you much good."
"Well it is a little help."
Shinji looked at the three Lilim and noticed that Ayato had a replica sword, one just like his, the other two he didn't care about, he needed to immobilise Ayato and now, he knew how to do it. He held out his own sword then brought it above his head, he then put every ounce of strength he had into it the sword grew to about a hundred foot long. He waited as the other two copied him but he noticed Ayato's getting bigger, looking at his own the sword was starting to short out a little. When Ayato's stopped growing, Shinji smiled and his sword simply fell apart, Ayato looked at him with complete confusion before hearing a growing squeal. When it left the human hearing range the sword exploded throwing Ayato all the way back to the wall and removing his arms. Envy and Lust had been thrown way by the blast and as Lust's face hit a tree its trunk at that point seemed to just disintegrate. Shinji then reached for his left arm and took the purple cylinder from it, he placed it on his right arm and waited for the Lilim to come to. He tried to build up his strength while he could. Although out of the corner of his eye he was sure he saw the AT field flicker a few hundred feet up. Shinji smiled as Envy and Lust appeared, he looked between them, then he reached for a handrail. He grabbed it and pulled it from the wall.
"This should be okay, as long as I don't use my AT field you can't copy me and I just have to keep you at arm's length!"
Shinji held the pipe out in front of him like a sword, then began swinging at the Lilim, they couldn't do much and were just batted away. Shinji kept up this style of fighting, trying to kill Envy, once she was dead he could use his power to get rid of Lust. Inside the school, Waya and Lilith were still running and Greed's power was still keeping theirs down. As they ran Hate was trailing behind a little and he was then hit by a large beam as he ran. He was thrown through the wall and outside into the middle of the schoolyard, Greed looked back but then remembered that the further Waya got from him the more power he could summon. So he tried to catch up.
"Come on Sis, we're almost out!"
They passed through some double doors and were no more than a few metres from the exit when a man stepped through. He was dressed all in black and the children got frightened, they were about to turn around when Greed came through the door on the other side. While Greed could be seen clearly the light from outside made the one at the door nothing but a silhouette.
"Pride-kun?"
"Nope."
The kids smiled as they recognised the voice that came from the silhouetted man.
"Uncle Touji!"
"Uncle?"
Greed watched as the part human, part machine stepped between him and the children, he was automatically blocking Touji's AT field.
"I heard you block AT fields, have you ever liquefied someone?"
"I can't quite get rid of that level of fields."
"That is all I wanted to hear."
Although the main weapon of Touji's arm was the AT knuckle-duster, he was still stronger than the average human with his arm and leg alone. He had everything he needed.
"Go on kids, go and help your father."
"Hai!"
They ran outside to see the scene of carnage, there were craters everywhere, Ayato was barely supporting himself on a wall at the entrance letting his arms regenerate. Shinji was knocking Envy and Lust all over the place with the metal pole he had commandeered. Then there was Rei she was keeping Hate at a distance with the AT cannon. Then there was a sight that they didn't want to see, Asuka ran through the gate and stopped as she saw Ayato out of the corner of her eye.
"Ayato?"
"Don't talk to me..."
She turned and looked at Ayato, he was just standing up, his arms were red, he walked past her and looked at the fighting Shinji.
"He knew that my Pride and anger would lower my concentration, he knew it would take me a while to regenerate."
"Ayato what happened to you?"
"You happened! You and your stupid feelings! I was almost happy, but then he came along and you couldn't be apart from your stupid Shinji!"
"Is this all about me and Shinji?"
"It is to me!"
Ayato said as he went back into the battle, he grabbed a similar metal pole to Shinji, then they started fighting again. Shinji was getting beaten back, even though he wasn't using his AT field Ayato was much stronger and more aggressive. Shinji was hit across the face and he flew backwards, Lust left Ayato to deal with Shinji, she slipped into shadow and appeared behind Asuka then touched her shoulder with her gloved hand.
"What do you want!?"
"I want to make my Ayato...happy..."
Author note – Well that was a ballsed up operation. From Shinji being alone, you now have five on three, not to mention Asuka, Waya and Lilith.
