Chapter 4
As always all you reviews are appreciated greatly, especially to Marneus. Now for some side notes. About Shinji's mother contacting him, its just something I've added to the fic to add some history into it (this should be explained in this chapter or the next). Now about the OOCness. In this story Shinji learned to like the Eva (after all he was in there for 1000 years), and since he was in there so long it gradually bacomes a part of him (lets say for example a teddy bear which you own since you were small, you will have some attachment to it). About Heero, in the end of Endless Waltz, you notice that the pilots try and 'losen up'. Well in this story the war have finished around a few years ago, and after getting a wife (Releena) Heero began slightly to become more 'human' (not completly has he still has that death-glare, which was stated in the previous chapter). As for detailed fics I'll still try on that one. But I may take longer to upload, since school is starting to press very hard as end of year exams are coming up.

First there was an explosion, then there was chaos. As the red beast stood up in the middle of down town all rebel suits attacked it, like a bunch of frenzied bees. The red demon expanded it AT field until it stretched for half a kilometer. The power of the AT field cracked buildings, made trees splinter and destroyed all mobile suits around it. Energy blasts and missles exploded harmlessly into the glowing hexagon field. Its eyes flashed and the field expanded rapidly, destroying buildings and everything else in its path...mobile suits were no exception. Only two suits remain and they wisly escaped. The AT field did not seem to destroy but to erased everything in its way. Then as suddenly as it activated it returned to its dorment slumber.
It was then Eva-01 stood up and checked its surroundings to make sure it is safe. It then crouched down on one of its legs and reached one of its hands out, open palmed. "You want me to climb on our hand?" stammered Asuka. The Eva nodded. Asuka nervously stared at the palm, which was easily the size of a small house. She gathered her courage and climbed on it, which proved hard because of the slippery surface. The purple metal gaint rose. When it reached its full height the entry plug came out with a hiss. The hatch opened.
"Come in, quick," said the young boy. Asuka hesitated again, but then entered the plug. She found herself next to a boy dressed in what like some sort of a protective suit. "Eh! What's this water stuff!" shouted Asuka in distress.
"Its L.C.L the plug will be filled with it," replied Shinji.
"WHAT! FILL! Won't we drown?" shouted a distressed Asuka.
"It will give oxygen directly," explained Shinji. Asuka just made a noise. Asuka was facinated as the Eva started up. She's been in cockpits of many mobile suits before, but none looked like this. 'It was almost like you are looking from the machines point of view.' she thought.
"Um...what is your name?" asked Shinji in a shakey voice, Asuka noticed that the pilot was blushing.
"Its Asuka Soryu," replied Asuka, proudly. She noticed Shinji stiffen at the name. "Is anything wrong?"
"No." The Eva walked towards it comrade and carried it, before it flew of.
Asuka had never felt anything quite like it. Normally in a mobile suit or shuttle you can hear the engine running ,coughing and grinding. There was no sound, not even a squeak. The ride was so smooth that she could have sworn she is sailing on a smooth lake right now. Later Shinji yelled, "Hold on!" Asuka wondered why, since the flight was so smooth that the landing should just, at the most, be a bump. That was a serious understatement. As the gigantic bulk of the Eva was sliding along the runway, Asuka could her concrete breaking, scraping and metal reinforcements breaking. As the Eva stopped Asuka sighed in relief.
As the Eva started to stand up, it also placed its red comrade against the wall, which made a strained grinding sound, but remained standing. Asuka couldn't help but notice several mechanicals cringing when they saw the red mecha. Shinji piloted his Eva into a crude platform for the Eva, which was made of a large platform of metal, connected to the rest of the walkway. The entry plug came out with a 'whosh'. Asuka stepped out carefully onto the platform, as mutiple medics rushed towards them. Asuka noticed her mother was also one one the people running her way (from now on Asuka's mother will be called Miko. Its a random name I got when I randomly circled two Japanese letters). Miko ran towards her daughter as the paramedics checked Shinji before checking Asuka's injuries, which were only a few scratches. Miko hugged Asuka and sobbed, "Are you okay? I was sooo worried, are you tired? Do you wnat to take a rest?"
"Ma! You are embarressing me!" replied Asuka, "I'm fine." Miko checked Asuka a little more in case of 'unknown injuries,' before proceeding towards Shinji. Shinji, who saw the figure of Asuka's mother closing towards him began to feel nervous again.
"Thanks a lot child, Asuka would have been captured or worst killed if it wasn't for you," said a smiling Miko who still has some tears in her eyes. Shinji was about to stammer a response when Miko said something. "I guess you know my ancestor (spelling?)." Shinji nodded shly. Miko smiled before turning around so she was looking at the red gaint. "I didn't believe that my ancestors piloted something like this at first, but now..." said Miko as she lost herself in her own thoughts. Known to them a soldier was walking towards them.
"Lady Soryu! You and the pilot are requested in the meeting room," said the man before saluting. Miko sighed.
"At ease soldier," ordered Miko. The soldier relaxed a little. As Shinji and Miko were about to walk away, the soldier said, "Sorry madam, but I forgot to tell you that Mistress Asuka is also needed."
Miko frowned a little. "Alright. Asuka dear, follow me closely, don't wonder off, I don't want you to get squashed by a landing Leo." Asuka made a face, then ran until she was beside Shinji, who blushed relising he was still in his plug suit.
They entered a dark room. In the room was Heero, who smiled when he saw Shinji. He stood up and drawed a few wooden chairs out from a large oak table. "Thank you," said Miko as she sat on the chair. Same goes for Shinji and Asuka.
"Why are we here? Am I in trouble?" asked a nervous Shinji. Heero shrugged and patted Shinji in the back.
"I doubt it. Anyways if there are in trouble I will help you, one way or another," said Heero, as he showed the handle of a pistol to Shinji, which was hidden in his shorts. Shinji gulped and gave a little smile. As Heero sat down, two generals, judging from all their badges walked in. The big bald general sat down, while a leener one stood up next to him.
"We are here to get some answers," said the bald general, who got straight to the point. "I want to know what your machine is, why it was constructed, the organisation which made it, and more importantly why were you floating in space for a tousand years."
"What do you mean what sort of machine it is? A machine is a machine," stated Miko.
"Well I doubt a machine, unless if it is highly advance, could move by itself without a pilot, with a mind of its own," said the muscled man in a cold voice. All attention was directed towards Shinji.
"Well the machine is actually a bio-mechanical constructed to fight angels," said Shinji, who suprised himself, since he anwsered the question as though he had been practicing.
"Why such a large, and undoubtedly expensive machine than? Couldn't an army beat it?" said the bald man.
"It is because of the AbsoluteTerror field, it is a field that makes the the angel invincible. An Eva or Evangelion can produce a simular field and erode it," explained Shinji as he suprised himself again.
"So when it moves by itself it is the biological part...interesting. Does this machine have to tamed or something, like a horse? I think I would like to take it away and examine it," said the big fat bald man.
"Mother would not be happy," said Shinji.
"What do you mean by 'mother'," said both generals. The rest of the room was also looking at him confused. Shinji sighed.
"The Eva absorbed my mother's soul in an experiment," as Shinji expected he heard gasps, "So essentially the Eva is my mother. I found this out bfore I was shot into space, thats all I know," said Shinji in a slightly depressed voice. It took several moments as before this information was absorbed and digested.
"Um, very well...before you leave I wanted to ask one last thing," said the musclular general. Shinji was getting irratated, but the general's head turned from Shinji's direction to Miko's direction. "Ambassador, may I request that your daughter pilot Unit-02?" Everyone was shocked, and know waht the anwser was going to be. Before Miko could say a definate 'no' Asuka ran up to her mother.
"Can I mum PLEASE?" asked Asuka in a desperate voice, like child asking her mother for a toy. Before Miko could anwser Asuka interrupted again. "Mother, our ancestors have piloted it, so its a sort of honor that we continue," explained Asuka. Knowing Asuka, Miko saved herself from a lot of pain, by saying a yes. Asuka jumped in joy and hugged Shinji. Shinji blushed hard as Asuka hugged him for ten seconds before she relised what she was doing. "Sorry..." said Asuka blushing red. Shinji was still stunned. Everyone laughed, even the two generals showed a little smile.
"Well we better go," said the two generals as they walked out of the dark meeting room. Not long after the generals left the rest followed.
"We better get back," said Heero who was walking with his hands in his pockets. Shinji who was still in his plug suit followed him closely, since he was getting nervous at the amount of female staff winking at him. "Anyways I have news for you," said Heero. "You will be starting school, Shinji. Do you think you can handle it?"
Shinji nodded. 'The teacher better not drone on about the second impact,' thought Shinji. "Sure." Heero smiled and ruffled Shinji's hair. This caused a few female staff giggle, which made Shinji go crimson. "Come on," said Heero as he called Shinji to walk a little faster.
"What bout my-," said Shinji before being interrupted.
"What ever it is it can wait," said Heero with a yawn.
"But-," Shinji gave up. Heero walked towards his blue sportscar and unlocked it. 'I know I'm forgetting something,' thought Heero. Heero forgetting things were very rare. 'Oh well, I tired and I'm sure it can wait,' heero decided.
As Releena came out of her house/mansion, to greet her husband and guest she was suprised. She looked at Shinji and blushed. Shinji knew what she was thinking and mouthed a ,"He forgot." Releena giggled. When Heero relised whats wrong he slapped himself in the head and tried not to notice a glare from the boy.
