Chapter 10
The time for Reunion is drawing near
Sephiroth sat in a metal throne holding his prized weapon the Masamune. Sephiroth was in the middle of polishing his sword as two men dressed in black cloaks with hoods over their heads were dragging a woman with a black cloth bag over her head towards him. Sephiroth stood up, and he walked towards the figure as he put his sword down next to his chair. He stood over the figure as he pulled the bag off the person's head.
"Welcome Dr. Ritsuko Akagi" Sephiroth said as he looked down at Ritsuko.
"Who are you and where am I" Ritsuko asked.
"Where you are at is not important. What is important is the reason why I had you brought here" Sephiroth replied to Ritsuko's question.
"Then why I am here" Ritsuko asked the one winged angel. "I am in need of your unique knowledge of the Magi system" Sephiroth said as he turned around and walked away from her. "For what purpose" Ritsuko demanded firmly.
"NERV is close to out living its usefulness to me, so I wish to arrange for the whole facility to self-destruct when the time comes" Sephiroth said as he looked over his shoulder at the woman.
"What makes you so sure that I will help you?"
"I understand that you have fallen out of grace with Gendo and the rest of NERV. In fact it was brought to my attention that you would like nothing more than to see Gendo destroyed" Sephiroth spoke with a grin on his face. Sephiroth walked to his throne. Sephiroth turned to face Ritsuko as sat down. Ritsuko didn't say a word as she turned away trying to hide the fact that she did wanted to get back at Gendo.
"So it is true then. I know that Gendo had an affair with you, but did you know that he had one with your mother too" Sephiroth stated coldly as Ritsuko looked at Sephiroth with a shocked expression.
"I know that Gendo has only been using you and your mother so he can start the third impact and be re-united with wife through the union of all human souls. You still want revenge don't you" Sephiroth said trying to temp Ritsuko into assisting him.
"Yes...I want to make to Gendo pay. I want Revenge" Ritsuko yelled out revealing her turn intentions to Sephiroth. Sephiroth simply smiled and thought to himself "Excellent...everything is falling into place as I have planned. A new reunion shall begin and soon after, so shall the third impact."
Later that afternoon back at NERV HQ Maya, Cloud, Asuka, and Shinji were sitting on a table inside NERV's cafeteria. The group was interested to hear more about Cloud's world as he told them about places like Midgar, Cosmo canyon and the City of the Ancients. Misato had gone to attend to other things while Rei left NERV to return to her apartment where she found a folder on her bed with a note on it that said "Here is the information I promised you. I shall be excepting an answer from you soon."
Rei opened up the folder to find that the folder was filled with many pages to a report of some kind. Rei started going through the report as she sat on her bed reading it word by word. While at the same time another Angel was in route to attack NERV. Shinji was called to the pilot's area to get ready to face the angel. Since Asuka was no long in a coma Kouzou Fuyutski had ordered Asuka to enter her Eva in hopes that they could send it out instead of Unit 01. Once Asuka was inside, an attempt to activate it was made. Nothing happened.
"Damn it...she's still unable to operate her Eva" Misato said in disappointment.
Shinji was being put inside Eva 01 while thinking "Come on Asuka you can do it."
Asuka was pulling on the controls within the unit trying to get it to work, but still nothing was happening. Asuka was starting to break down into tears at her own misfortune of being unable to operate her Eva. Shinji was set to launch, so since Asuka was unable to get her Eva to work Shinji was launched to the surface to confront the new Angel. Shinji reached the surface as he went to a near by building to acquire a weapon. His weapon Shinji got a hold of was a Grenade launcher. He looked around for the angel as held up his weapon. Meanwhile inside NERV's command center were Cloud, Maya, Misato, Hyuga, Aoba, and Fuyutski were watching things from their post while Gendo was watching things from his usual place in the command center.
"Shinji above you" Misato yelled out as NERV detected that the angel was right above Shinji.
A large Angel dropped down and it seemed different from the usual Angels encountered by NERV. However Cloud recognized that monster as he muttered out "Ultimate Weapon." "Ultimate what" Misato looked at Cloud with a suspicious look. "That thing is one of the weapons me and my friends fought on my world, but why is it here" Cloud said as his eyes were stuck looking at the Angel.
Ultimate Weapon looked at the Eva with a very sinister look while Shinji was planning his first move. The giant angel moved to attack as it raised his hands up ready to grab the Eva to rip it limb from limb. Shinji started shooting the angel with grenades from his rifle, but sadly the hits didn't do a lot of damage to the incoming monster. Ultimate Weapon got a hold of Unit one by its right arm as its other arm ripped the weapon out of the Eva's hands and it crushed the grenade launcher within its powerful grip. Shinji used his left hand to grab one of Ultimate weapon's arms as he gave the Weapon a powerful blow to the head with a roundhouse kick.
Ultimate weapon fell back as Shinji started punching the creature a couple times in the stomach. The weapon was stunned with each blow. When Shinji was done punching he ran over to another weapon storage building as he pulled out an Axe. He rushed over to the weapon so he could hack it to death with the axe, but as he approached the monstrous creature Ultimate weapon created an AT field stopping Eva one in its tracks.
Shinji and Eva 01 were fighting to break through the AT field, but it seemed imposable. Ultimate weapon's AT field was far too powerful for the Eva to break through. Ultimate weapon's eyes flashed as Shinji was hit by an attack that was very similar to Ultima. Shinji was sent flying back due to the blast...he and Eva one landed on several building completely leveling them. Shinji was rendered unconscious due to the blast as the Weapon moved towards it fallen prey to finish it off. Misato and Cloud were yelling to the communications microphone trying to wake Shinji up.
"Shinji...get up...The angel is heading straight for you" Misato yelled out, but she failed to wake Shinji.
"Get your ass up Shinji"
Cloud's attempt to wake Shinji failed as well. Shinji was as good as dead if he didn't wake up. Suddenly Maya received a notification from someone who was with Eva 02. She turned to Misato to relay the report to her.
"Misato I have a report on Unit 02 status, it is" Maya was saying, but she was cut off by Misato who told her "Not now!"
But Maya could say another word Ultimate Weapon was standing over Eva 01. A sword that looked like Cloud's ultimate weapon appeared in its hand except the blade wasn't a wide as Cloud's sword. The sword's blade was an average great sword blade size and fashion. As it raised its blade prepared to cut the Eva in half something burst out from one of the transport elevators for Eva's and it launched it self at the Weapon and it started beating the crap out of it.
Misato was shocked to see that the one who was attacking Ultimate Weapon was none other than Unit 02. Unit 02 was on top of Ultimate Weapon's back stabbing it in the back multiple times with the progressive knife. The Weapon was screaming as Asuka was in a berserker's rage as she was planning to dismantle the Weapon piece by piece.
The Weapon was moving and jumping around wildly like a bull gone mad. The scene was like something out of a rodeo and Asuka was the rider and Ultimate was the bull. Ultimate weapon was trying to hit Asuka with its sword, but the Eva grabbed the sword with one hand while the other holding the progressive knife cut off Ultimate weapon's arm which was holding the sword.
Asuka pulled the blade upwards as she seized the weapon by the hilt after sticking the progressive knife into Ultimate weapon's eye. She jumped over Ultimate weapon and she landed on the ground in front of it. With her New weapon she cut off Ultimate Weapon's other arm leaving the weapon with no arms and only one eye it can use. Ultimate weapon retreated into the sky in an attempt to fly away so it could escape, but Asuka wasn't about to allow an angel to escape.
She put the sword down to pick up the axe. She threw it at the weapon aiming for its back. The axe hit and it embedded itself within Ultimate weapon's spine. The surge of pain the weapon suffered caused to fall to the ground like a rock.
Asuka picked up the sword as she jumped into the air and in an extreme form of bad ass swordsman technique she proceeded with hacking the weapon to bits leaving the once powerful and might Ultimate weapon a pile of steaks. Asuka twilled the sword around with one hand as she sent small drops of blood flying all over the place.
Misato, Cloud and Maya were looking at Asuka with wide-eyed expressions because they had never seen anyone do anything like that expert for an Eva that went berserk. Asuka didn't just kill the angel, she slaughtered it. Misato turned to Maya and asked "Is that what you were going to tell me?"
"Yeah...the technicians said that Unit 02 activated so they sent up to help Unit 01" Maya responded weakly because she felt like throwing up due to the sight of Ultimate weapon's chopped up corpse.
"I am back and I am bad" Asuka voice said over the commutations line.
"Don't you think you over did it a little" Maya asked while her face was looking a little green.
"I don't know, but who cares. It's dead" Asuka shouted proudly.
Gendo and Fuyutski were watching Asuka as she and her Eva were standing over the remains of Ultimate weapon. Gendo wasn't really listening to their conversations because he had a pair of earphones on that was attached to the tape recorder that Fuyutski had brought him. He was listening to Cloud's story and the more he listened the darker the mystery behind what his wife was looking for got. He had a feeling he wasn't going to like what he would discover about the Jenova project.
A/N: Ultimate weapon's appearance as an Angel is a hint to tell you why these new angels are around. Another part of the puzzle for you guys. Also a nice round of applause for windwingxs for helping me proof read the last few chapters, but this one I am doing on my own.
