"No, not now!" Ritsuko cries out in the mobile Command center that rests on top of a mountain beside Evangelion Units One and Zero.The Date is 2015 AD Tokyo 3 is under attack by the diamond shaped fifth Angel, that dominates over the skies, drilling a hole to its target. Unit One's sniper shot goes wide, it's super heated photon wave is distorted by the passing particle beam being fired from the Angel directly at Unit One. As two hillsides on opposite side's of Tokyo 3 ignite, in to a fireball or energy and light. Unit One readies it second shot, just as the Angel penetrates into the Geo-Front, its AT Field tipped drill, speeds to its objective, with NERV's primary defenses out of the way.

Deep under ground in Terminal Dogma, in the darkened Room of Gauf, that has not seen any visitors for sometime. The hum of electronics breaks the silence, as computer screens begin to activate all around, lighting up the room with multi flashing colors. Printouts begin to spit out, as the main lights turn on, with the sea of Rei's visible for anyone to see. A sound of suction then dominates the room as the center cylinder fills with the blood of Lilith. Once filled, like a cork in water, a Rei clone floats into the tube, lifeless, and doll like in appearance.
After some time, the sound of electricity begins building, and soon, becomes overwhelming, as the hiss and crackle of sparks begin to spring from the mass of equipment that hangs from the ceiling. With out warning an explosion of electricity erupts into the tube of LCL, the clone of Rei begins to jolt back, and forth violently, as electricity courses through its body. The light show ends in a flash, as power escapes from the room entirely. After some time the lights flicker back on, in the center tube, the Rei floats in a standing position.
'Being in pain, would be a measureless understatement.' Yui thought to her self, as she made a bubbly scream of agony. Soon to follow was the unmistakable panic of drowning, yet as her lungs filled with the thick liquid, suffixation did not follow.
'Everything down to the tips of my fingers, to the balls of my feet hurt.' She floated, unable to gain motor function to her limbs, but was more then able to remember, why she was there.
'To fight.'
Yui's thought, as feeling came back to her arms, she concentrated even more. Soon she felt the cold, damp tingle, of the thick liquid between he toes.
'I'm here to save my son, and the world.'
Still blind but wanting to leave such a small space, she pushed off and up to the surface of the tube.
'I'm Yu…'

'Why does my head hurt, it felt like I just pushed my self in to a steal plate… to be more accrete, why does my body hurt.'
Slowly, the Rei trapped inside the tube, opened her eyes, to see blurry figures, and flashes of light.
'Wait I'm floating… No I'm drowning!'
She races as fast as she can, to whatever surfaces her limited vision could provide. She slams in to a hard metal plate, at the top of the slippery glass like cocoon. Once more, she franticly felt around, as the pain in her lungs slowly faded.
'Well that must be what caused my head to hurt… I am going to die! Wait a minute… Just who was about to die.'
Drowning seemed to become the furthest from her mind, now, as she contemplates on who she was.
'At least the LCL is protecting me from drowning.'
She paused for a moment in confusion. 'Just how do I know this, and yet I cant remember my own name?' -

The thin young girl crossed her arms in a pout. For some reason, she knew that the computers were still scanning her, however she did not know why she knew. She waited for nearly ten minutes until the top opened, and she floated to the surface. Chocking and spitting out LCL, she went to take her first breath. With much dismay, it was even more pain full then the feeling of drowning.
'I must be suffering from focal muscular atrophy.'
'Wait a minute!'
For some reason, her mind knows a lot more then she is aware.
'This did answer my blurry vision, pain in my body and the lack of energy to move, problem. Of course I have this urge to think of the human genome.'
The girl thinks as she floated in the water, trying to remember her name.
'Y!' It started with a Y!'
A huge smile struck her face as she was remembering more then just the human genetic code.
"Damn it, stupid human genetic code."
"Y." Noticing that her voice was as useful a most of her random facts. For after she uttered her one letter, she began to cough uncontrollably.
She returned to her thoughts, although for some reason, her mind could not get past the debate of this LCL, chemical components. On the good side, her vision was improving at least for color, light, and depth perception.
"Meow." The cat like sound was soft and dry, as she spoke under her breath as something brushed by her leg. 'Y…'
She tried her best not to freak out. Nevertheless, she felt knowing who she was, was more important then a little thing called fear. When she was touched a second and then third time, she got mad, and reached down grabbing something that felt like a hand. Alarmed that she was not alone, she pulled it up with all her strength, only to see a naked blue haired girl. She came to the surface, with a lifeless bob to her head.
"Y… Shit!"
She grabs her mouth, as she heard an echo bounce off the walls of this pool of LCL.
'This LCL it's so gooey, and… well gooey.'
She waited for a moment before curiosity got the best of her. She reaches out, and pokes her in the head. The body's only reaction was to slowly sink back in to the pool.
'Meow'
The girl became very sad; the first person she met in her life was dead.
'Maybe I was supposed to be dead too.'
It was a discouraging thought, but it made sense to her. She pulled the body up once more.
"Well nice to meet you." She whispered, giving her voice some practice.
"So is there anything other to do besides die in a pool." After waiting for the response, she looked around, to see the shadowy figures, of lifeless bodies, at the bottom of the pool. The girl, who looked like all of them except for one unique future, frowned at the sight.
"I guess, not."
With some strength building in her body, she decided to put it to good use, by finding a way out of this place. She also felt, she should say good-bye to her first friend. Even if the person was dead, she did not distinguish it as a problem.
"Good night and thank you blue haired girl. You completed your task what more can I ask of you now. I will sign the book on the way out the door, and that will be all, if I need yea I will call, but I don't think that's likely some how."

After a minute of swimming, she found a ladder that led out of the pool. Pulling herself out would seem to be more difficult then she imagined. With a lot of pain, moaning, and wincing, the young girl reached the surface. She looked around the large hollow room, she found that where dozens of pools around her.
'What a weird place.' Nothing registered to her child like mind; everything was so foreign to her, yet it was also fun. She went to thinking once more, as she layed on her back, naked and cold, unable to build the strength to stand.
'I do not even remember what I look like, but random useless facts seemed to be abundant.' She then took the time to 'guesstimate' the diameter and circumference of the pool. 'Who ever I was, I needed to get a life, because the information got me nowhere.'
"In to the darkness away I go, all it may be in vane I know. In to the darkness even so I have to take the journey. In to the darkness to find some clothes."
After sometime of more thought, she forced herself to sit up. This was surprisingly easy; her body was rebounding from atrophy, faster then she thought. As only thirty minutes later, she was walking warily down a hallway, it was dark, but with her vision still out of whack, it made no difference, as she finally found a door that she could open.

The girl stumbled around, until she finally found a light. 'Bad idea!' She turned off the light holding her eyes with pain. 'There's a good lessen for yea sins.'
After a minute, the girl decided on a safer approach, and began to crawl around like a child touching, and feeling her way around. Thanks to a stroke of luck she manages to find a cabinet full of assorted clothing. Only if it was hospital clothing, it was better then her birthday suit. Once dressed, she stands up, this, time with the pain in Her feet only a slight annoyance.
'I need something to allow my eyes to get used to the light.'
Her thought was at first discouraging, but soon her useless talent in random facts gave her an idea. She searched around until she found a long white cloth used for bandaging wounds called gauze. She ties it around her head, blindfolding herself. She felt around in the dark, until she found the light switch once more.
Less painful, but she could make out distinguish shapes, she gave a smirk. "If there is one thing I'm learning about my self in this experience, is that I'm a freak' in genius."
Allowing time to get used to the light, she went to leave but the door started to slide open by it self so she quickly shut it. Once more, it goes to open but she hit the close button again.
"Who is it?"
"NERV Security Forces!" The voice sounded mad to her, something she did not want to be apart of, and decided to calm it down, as she looked for something to brace the door
"Oh' nothing, I'm fine in here, just a small lighting problem, thank you. How are you?"
The door slid open before she even reached to close it again. In the doorway, was a tall figure and he immediately registered to her as a dangerous person.
"NERV security forces! Don't move!"
"Meow!'
As if by reflexes, the young girl attacked who ever it was in front of her. The first attack is a faint punch, then a grapple of what ever was in his hand. As if her mind could have found a better time to bring up useless facts, she began to think about what she just grabbled away from this man, using her apparent skill in Chinese Martial Arts.
'H&K MP-5 SD 9mm… side-by-side double mags and a sure-shot light…' Her thoughts ended, by a slap to the head from the man's nightstick. 'I deserved that.'
Not in the best shape to fight some people totting, submachine guns, and assortment of objects made for killing people really fast. Therefore, the girl leaps for the soldier's shoulders; once more as if by second nature, she spins in mid air, landing on the other side of the door. For all her acrobatics, it did not save her from falling on her ass as her dismount. She quickly looked to identify the shapes, of a group of tall figures, using a SWAT tactic called a stack formation, facing her, therefore, she decided to run.
'Besides it was a boring conversation anyways.' She thought.
She retreated like the Frenchmen in war. She ran as fast as her slender legs could take her, only to have another useless fact to come to mind.
'The only time the French have one a war in the past two hundred years was against themselves'
She went around corners, and up stairs, finally she hit an elevator. Franticly pushing the up button, for her the seconds it took, seemed like an eternity, as she began to hear the pounding of steel towed boots, running in her direction
"Come to me, now, elevator! I command it!" She put her hands on her hips, as she thinks back in her thought. 'Come to think of it, what's a SWAT style stack?' The elevator saved her for the torment of telling herself the answer. She dashes inside it. It shuts just before she sees the glare from the MP-5's, sure shot light strike her blindfold. The weak girl begins to gasp for air; it was if she never ran before in her life. The elevator never seemed to stop for her either. She guessed pressing the up button a million times would do that. After twenty minutes, she started to worry.
'This must be the elevator to heaven.'
