Chapter Three: The three Fallen Disciples

Pre-reading done by M.F.S. (He insisted the 'underline')

NERV Infirmary

The 3rd Child lay motionless, his tired and aching body restrained him movement for the time being. But his breathing was even and he was asleep, his roommates left awhile ago to go home and get some sleep. But something stirred in his window, three shadows made it in the room and transformed into three beings.

The first one has long black hair and it as pony-tailed at the back. He was dressed in a red trench coat overall and was standing near the door. The second shadow transformed and it was wearing a black leather trench coat. He was bald and his pale head betrayed his outline in the darkness. The last one made its way toward Shinji and took form below his bed. He was wearing a blue 18-th Century tunic complete with a blue cape.

The first one spoke, "Sebastian, is this the Child Master Valek told us about?"

"Yes," the one wearing blue said, "He is, I can smell our Master's blood in him."
"But where is our Master?"

"Be patient young one," Sebastian said, "Leonard."

The bald one of the three vampires stood up and approached.

"Yes?" he said with a long 's' in the word, "You need to read his mind Sebastian?"

"No," Sebastian said examining the 3rd Child, "We must be careful that we must not be tracked by any Slayer. As if a Slayer can kill us?"

The youngest vampire, Marcus floated near Shinji, "But he looks so… well… a bit small don't you think?"

"Remember Marcus," Sebastian said, "Not all great things came from large packages."

"Yes I know," the red clothed cat-eyed Marcus said, "I know, they also come in small ones, blah, blah, blah. Yakkity-yak!"

"Shut up," Leonard hissed, "Remember we're not supposed to be here."
"Let's go," Sebastian nodded and raised his cloak to his shoulders. They turned to shadows again and slipped outside the window.

A moment later Shinji opened his eyes and scanned the room. His head was throbbing like hell and he felt like his head was being jack-hammered. He sat up and recollected his thoughts.

"What the hell happened… ?" he murmured as he tried to stand up.
"What do you think your doing?" said the nurse that was already closing the door.

Shinji scratched his head, "I… l was just… I mean… "

"Oh shush," the nurse said which quickly tucked him into bed, "You must sleep Pilot Ikari."

He nodded and the nurse's eyes caught his attention. It was directed toward him, he also noted that they were lifeless and blank.

"Master."

"Say what?"

The nurse bowed down, "What is your bidding Master?"
"Master? Wait a minute! Hold it… "

Suddenly in his confusion he heard the same mysterious voice he heard.

'Look at your self.'

For once obeying the voice he slid over the side of the bed and almost stumbled to the floor if not for the nurse who caught him. Muttering a 'thank you' to her, he or rather they made their way to the bathroom. Shinji looked up at his reflection and at his changed physical state.

His face had gone from budding 14-yr. old to a pale angelic and mysteriously serene face of an 18 yr. old. Feeling something burning in his chest he took off the hospital gown and stared at his developed body.

'What the hell is going on… ? I mean… how is this possible?"

He was beginning to feel frustrated and felt his fingers started to prick a little. He was confused and tired. He heard the voice again, 'You need to bite down.'

Somewhere

'You need to bite down… "

"Who's that?" Sebastian, Leonard and Marcus turned their head towards NERV Infirmary.

"Did you hear that?" Marcus said as he saw Sebastian already transformed and was also flying away with Leonard.

They left the lonely alley in a hasty pace and the three quivering, half-dead bodies of three Tokyo-03 citizens.

NERV Infirmary

His mind reeled back and all rational thoughts left him suddenly, he stood up and faced the nurse with him.

"Give your self to me," he said huskily and held the nurse's body next to him.

The nurse, who was more than eager to oblige, craned her neck and took her 'Master's' head and held it to her, "This is all my Master asks of me."

And his eyeballs reeling back he lets his long and sharp canines puncture the nurse's neck. The nurse's body quivered and shook, but Shinji continued to take away the life essence of every living thing in this world. Suddenly feeling his 'incredible' hunger passing away, his rational thoughts returned.

"What have I done… ?"

Shaking his head in disbelief he carried the nurse's half-dead body on the hospital bed and slid silently outside. Still shaking he ran all the way up to the hospital's rooftop. There he hugged his legs and thought bitterly.

"What happened…? I didn't mean it… I mean… why was I hungry for… for that?"

A voice floated behind him, "Master."

He turned his head and immediately stepped away. There he saw the three Master Vampires, Sebastian, Leonard and Marcus floating behind him.
"Oh my shit!" instinctively he jumped back and was surprised at his own speed and agility.

"No wait," Sebastian said, "Master please wait!"

Already angry and confused he stopped and looked behind him, as he turned the three Master Vampires reeled back.

'Shit!' Marcus thought, 'He's scarier than Master Valek.'

Shinji stood unblinking at them his features being silhouetted by the full moon behind him. Unwillingly his hands erupted hidden veins and his fingers became like switchblades. His eyes turning blood red and his hairs turning slightly gray in some areas. He spoke in a deep voice, "What is it that you want?"

"Master Shinji," Sebastian coughed the veteran of the three felt uneasy, "You carry Master Valek's powers."

He should have regretted what he said because in a blink of an eye. Shinji who was about ten feet away now held Sebastian in the neck and was choking him relentlessly.
"What did you say?" Shinji's voice boomed, "Your saying I'm a… a… a… "

"Yes Master," Sebastian took a breath and coughed, "You're a vampire, and you're our Master now."

With a growl he threw Sebastian down, "What happens now? Sebastian?" , 'How in the world did I know that?'

"Well Master we need to teach a thing or two at your new powers," Fear etched on Sebastian's face, "We Vampires have basically two powers which are planted ever since we became like this."

"Let me explain further," Leonard said and strode towards Shinji, "Our main weapon is our body Master Shinji. Your claws are your basic weapons, but your claws are specially designed for Master Vampires. Our claws and yours are retractable and will come out when we feel threatened or angry."

Unconsciously Shinji's hands began to bulge in veins and his switchblade nails came out. The three Master's near him gulped and eyed his hands.

"As I was saying Master," Leonard still not taking his eyes off at Shinji's hands, "Our claws come out if we feel rage, or anger, or even a strong feeling of longing."

"Like our longing at blood," Sebastian chimed in.

"Stop saying that!" Shinji shouted and the three immediately flew together and huddled, "I'm sorry Master, the subject of blood will never be brought up again."

Still frowning he looked at Leonard and urged him to continue talking, "Well Master, the first power is our ability to conceal ourselves."

Shinji cocked his head and spoke, "Show it to me."

"Very well Master," he looks around and spots a ventilation shaft, "Let us use this as an artificial fog."

Leonard walked over to the smoking tubes and suddenly the smog began to circle his body and it transformed him into a silhouette smoke, "Master we can also make ourselves as shadows to hide in the night."

Turning himself visible again Leonard came up to Marcus, "Our reflexes are inhuman and our agility is unmatched. Also this comes to our second power, Rage."

"Rage?"

"Yes Master," Leonard bowed to Marcus, "Rage is caused by continuos attack of our enemy and the feeling we can't do anything about it."

"What do you mean… uh… Leonard?"

'He knows the 7th power, the Telekinesis,' Leonard thought, "In other words Master when we let ourselves be attacked our anger builds up. It may be more effective if I demonstrate."

He pulled Marcus into a clearing and signaled him to attack, Marcus crouched down and jumped Leonard. The bald vampire blocked every attack thrown at him. However Shinji notices the glowing light in Leonard's eyes and the red glowing energy at his left hand. Suddenly Marcus connects with a slash at the chest and Leonard's face contorted. In a fraction of a second and the forward motion of a glowing left hand was all Shinji saw. Marcus flew a distance of ten feet and crashed into another ventilation shaft.

Brushing himself off Marcus walked over to Shinji. The youngest of the Master Vampire's smiled and challenged him.

"Would you like to try it yourself Master?"

"What are you doing," Sebastian hissed, "You really think you can challenge our new Master?"

The two vampires talked in telepathy "But he's so small, what can he do?"

"Ok fine," Sebastian finally agreed, "Remember I did warn you."

Shinji nodded his head and he stood in one spot only, "You can stay there if you want Master." , 'It won't make any difference anyway.'

Shinji bowed and stood, meanwhile the three Masters lined up in front of him. Already towering over him Sebastian, Leonard, and Marcus prepared to attack all at once. With a blink of an eye the three Masters are upon him. The three Vampires unleashed countless blows and kicks. Shinji did not even dodged them, he intercepted them and anticipated it with incredible speed. The three were having a hard time while Shinji merely felt it was like an impulse in him.

However he felt something inside him build up, the heat he felt was overwhelming. Because of his old self he was able to keep it in, but the three Masters are really having a hard time.

'Oh my… ' Sebastian thought, 'It seems Master Shinji is more powerful than Master Valek.'

'Goodness,' Leonard thought, 'This is my fastest moves I can do, and he's not even moving yet? Shit!'

'I have…' Marcus thought through his blows, 'I have… underestimated him. oh no… '

The three can only look on as the limit has been passed and Shinji finally lets the built-up energy in him to burst out. With three fast blows on his clawed hands, the three bodies of the Master's were flung like rag dolls and crashed on the rooftop floor door. The three stood up and they all droned one thing, a savage slash in the middle of their chest.

Marcus coughed, "This will leave a mark… "

Leonard wiped the blood off his dress, "Oww… it really hurts. This will take a time in regenerating."

Sebastian smiled, "Our new Master is strong, very, very strong." , 'I'm gonna need a new cape.'

Shinji also smiled, "I never knew I could do that."

"You see Master," Sebastian said, "You carry an enormous power within you."

"Wait a minute, I can't let you loose. And how can I stop the voice from overcoming me?"

"I'm sorry Master," Leonard bowed his head, "But you must feed so that your thirst will be quenched."

"I can't, I… I don't want to."

"You will never survive Master," Marcus said, "You need a constant feeder. I know someone, it's a girl who lives in the derelict apartments near the outskirts."

Shinji frowned at Marcus, "Does the girl have blue hair?"

"Yes Master," the youngest one grinned, "I used to fantasized about her."
"Uh… Marcus," Leonard whispered, "I think you should stop."

"Why? Is something wrong about… what… I'm… saying… ? uh Master?"

Shinji's eyes glowed red his hands burning with rage again, "Did you touch her?"

"Umm… n-n-no Master, at least not yet."
Marcus was thrown in a flash as Shinji straightened up, "No ONE will touch her."

The three nodded numbly and the three congregated around him.

"Master its almost daylight, we might as well hide."

"Hide?" Shinji said smugly, "Why should we hide? And will you please stop calling me Master Shinji."

"Of course Shinji-sama."

The 3rd Child sighed, "Never mind what I said then."

Sebastian, Marcus and Leonard transformed into shadows and was about to fly when they noticed Shinji hadn't even tried floating.

"Shinji-sama? Aren't you going to fly with us?"

"Fly?" he asked quizzically, "I can fly?"

"Leonard," Sebastian scolds, "You haven't taught him."

"Oh yes, I'm very sorry," Leonard transformed, "It's like this Master… first thing you will have to do is… "

"How many times do I have to tell you about the Master?!?" he exploded.

"Oh! Sorry, I'm very sorry Master."

Misato's Apartment

Shinji and the others slipped through Misato's balcony and opened the terrace door. They all walked in and Shinji with demonic speed checked all the rooms. He returned with the three vampires and instructed them.

"Listen to me, you three can't stay here. Misato's apartment is too small and I can't let you three be seen."

"Very well Master," Sebastian said, "We will take refuge at the Tokyo-03 cathedral."

"Cathedral? Your vampires how can you be in a place where crucifix is abundant?"

"Well Master you see," Leonard cut in, "Vampires just can't die like that, we need wooden or iron stakes to weaken us. Then expose us to the sun, that's how we burn like hell."

"Oh, ok," Shinji nodded, "You three might as well hurry."

The three bowed their heads once and in a flash was out of the door. After they left Shinji began to felt hungry again, no it was different from the bloodlust he felt earlier. He was feeling mortal hunger again, he is craving for food again.

"Is it just me or is my stomach growling?" Shinji pats his stomach lightly and it growled again, "Yes, I am still hungry."

Whipping a quick sandwich and a can of fruit juice he laid down the couch and ate ravenously. The silence was lonely and deafening, but it gave him the chance to think of his sanity and condition.

"I'm a vampire now, but wait why am I still hungry for food. Am I still human? I don't understand why, why is this happening?"

He closed his eyes and thoughts about what Sebastian said plagued his mind.

" … our longing for blood."

'I don't want to hurt people, I mean what force took over me?' he felt comfortable and began to doze off when suddenly he felt the wind shift and he hears another heartbeat near him began to approach.

'It's a small young, female. It's… it's Asuka. Wait how the hell did I hear her heartbeat? Oh Shit! She's coming near me.'

"What the hell is Baka Shinji doing here?" Asuka said as she examined Shinji who was obviously still in his hospital gown. The thing that caught her attention was Shinji's face.

"What the hell happened to him? I mean what's this? His face changed," she whispered but due to Shinji's heightened senses heard it all, 'He looks… uh… he looks good. Shit! Where did that came from?'

Shaking her head and remorse for her own weakness, "I got to go to the bathroom."

With her gone Shinji sat up a bit and looked on as the lights on the bathroom flickered open. Also thanks to his enhanced senses he was able to pinpoint that Asuka was waiting by the door.

He quickly laid himself down and senses Asuka looking out, as if making sure he was really asleep. Smiling to himself that at least the German girl murmured a "Pervert" first before fully going in the bathroom and he hears a bit of water in the bow… (Ok that's enough listening to people in bathrooms, especially Asuka or Rei. =)

She came out and Shinji finally began to breath normally because she locked herself on her room. Sensing he can communicate through his mind he called out for Leonard who was obviously trying to get inside a monks robe.

"Leonard, hey Leonard can you hear me?" Shinji asked thorough his mind.

The bald vampire bolted up and immediately answered his master's hail, "Yes Master? is there anything you need?"



"I can't sleep, I can hear heartbeats around me. I keep sensing cockroaches moving around, I can't sleep."

"Master you must control your senses, vampires do not only have inhuman strength and agility, we also have the most sophisticated senses in this world. We can even distinguish a child from an adult just by visualizing the blood veins of the body."

"I know that! But how can I tune it out?"

"Empty your mind master and let your powers dwindle its strength. That should put you in a trance and you will be able to sleep."

There was a moment of silence and Shinji spoke again, "Thank you, I am beginning to feel really tired."

There was silence and Leonard knew that his Master has already gone to sleep.

NERV Infirmary

Gendo stood over at the distance at the female nurse's body who was still alive, but very weak. Obviously the Commander really did came to see Shinji, but he also ended up in seeing the unconscious nurse at his son's bed.

"So it is true," Gendo murmured, "But where are you now boy?"

He walked away and disappeared into the elevator with the sun already rising from the horizon.

Tokyo-03 International Airport

Jack Crow, the descendant of Sirius Crow the same Slayer who stopped Valek's exorcism stepped out of the private plane of Vatican candidates. With another look back inside the plane he called his men out, a small man with a Desert Eagle loaded in his chest holster came down. Two other men obviously twins followed, the one had a shotgun, with a silver stake gun attachment.

His counterpart had a one Sg225 rifle with a UV light on the tip. Two others came out, one with spears and one with a samurai sword. A woman came out and was followed by a large burly man, the man carried a massive M134 revolving barrel minigun, and another followed carrying an MP5 with a few wiring sticking out of his clothes. The last man came out and the man was wearing a black tunic and a white insignia of a priest in his neck.

They all walked towards two cars and rolled out into the highway. They stopped into the Vatican consulate and the Cardinal there welcomed them.

"Welcome Jack Crow, the ever famous Slayer of Vampires."

Jack bowed down, "Thank you father, may I introduce my men."

He pointed at the small man with the Desert Eagle, "This is Amadeo," the small man bowed and remained his eye contact.

This twins are, "Chris and Michael, their family was wiped out by a single Master Vampire."

He points to the one carrying a spear, "That was Ima-kan-ji, he's African. That one with the samurai is Chang," the two bowed and returned to cleaning their blades.

He then turns to that couple, "Those two are Maria and Jose, Spanish born. Parents murdered by Vampires and half of the people in their village."

"Oh my," the Cardinal gasped, "And who is this last man of yours?"

"That's my Demo expert, he blows up the house if its too old or derelict to be saved."

"Ah… " Cardinal Ansay winced, "Gruesome, but you do know your mission here Jack?"

"Yes, track down Valek and kill Sebastian Delgado, the 18-th century Baron that Valek turned into one of his Masters. Leonard Vercetti, the Italian monk believed to be dead and was most knowledgeable of Vampire History. And Marcus Wahlberg, 18-th century fencing champion and Lieutenant in the War of Prussia and some other country."

Jack Crow grinned cockily, "I got pretty much all of our assignments right?"

The Cardinal shook his head, "I got to hand it to you, you're the best in our ranks right now."

"Ok Cardinal," Jack cocked his gun, "Who is the suspected carrier?"

"Well," the old cardinal said with a bit hesitation, "The target is a little hard to kill this time."

The Slayer took of his shades, "Who is it this time?"

Cardinal opened an envelope and took out a picture, "His name is Ikari. Ikari, Shinji."
