- Editor.... None (Help Wanted) Apply from with in...
A televisions screen turns on; the screen shows the oval office with the President of the United States sitting at his desk with a very somber look. "My fellow Americans I come to you on this December night with unfortunate news. The growing conflict in our friends in the east and now abandonment by the UN, Japan has fallen in to chaos. With the support of congress and the Japanese Prim Minister, I have ordered the Secretary of Defense to do what ever is necessary to bring stability to this great nation and her people. We will help our allies in these times of darkness we will not let any nation be abandoned or be threatened by any other nations. Our forces will also be sent to Tokyo 3 to prevent the forceful theft of the world's protectors… The Evangelions. The UN has threaded to use force to take our own protectors already deployed in the region. Our coalition is strong Britain, Spain, Canada, Mexico, Australia and Israel has joined us. In these days of need, war is not an option, but no one power should be allowed to hold ransom these heroes." As the final words are said, the screen shows C-17 flying over Tokyo 3. "Thank you, Merry Christmas and God bless America."
All over Tokyo 3 the American presence can be seen as the large convoy of the 4th and 3rd infantry division can be seen coming throw the mountain pass. In the Air the sight of A-10 Thunderbolt II, F-22 Raptor, F-117 Nighthawk, and F-35 Phoenix's litter the sky. Down in the Geo-Front US Marines begin to land their VA-110 Griffons on the parking lot out side NERV HQ. Misato over looks this from the entrance; her left arm is in a sling however this only hides the multiple bandages on her back. It is her first day back from her injuries incurred by Gendo. With a sigh of disapprover yet understanding on why the US is here she enters and heads to Command Center only to find a skeleton crew on shift with Maya sitting at her post typing away.
American NERV Personnel waves to Misato. "Merry Christmas."
Misato not used to the English looks up and thinks. "That's right it's the day before Christmas Eve…" She then smiles to the young American and says in his native tongue. "Merry Christmas to you too." She looks over to see Maya Ibuki typing away at her desk. "You're still here, Maya?" Misato says in Japanese.
Maya is startled by Misato voice. "Wha… Oh sorry, I'm on my third all nighter so I can have Christmas Eve off."
"Well, Captain Ibuki what are you working on." Misato glances to see Maya is wearing the Japanese flag patch on her right shoulder she then looks at the American NERV personal to see they are wearing United States flag patch on their shoulders. "What's with the flags?"
With a smile Maya points to a large binder that says Joint US/Japan NERV Operational Order. "These patches are part of the new rules set down by the Americans…"
Misato shakes her head and laughs a bit. "What these American's need flags to ID us…? That's Stupid."
"We don't have a say in it… think what NERV Security forces think…" Maya says to Misato giving her some time to guess but with Misato silence, she continues. "The United States Marine Corp has taken official command of the Geo-Front's security.
Misato rolls her eyes. "Its just like America… we give them an inch and they take a mile." She leans back on the desk and looks at all the other papers on Maya desk. "So what else are you doing?"
"I'm reviewing my new assistant…" Maya looks with a reflective thought as she thinks back to the death of her teacher and friend, Dr Ritsuko Akagi. "In E-project… filling in my old job."
"So who is the luckily one taking your seat?" Misato says as if she's announcing a game show. "Is it Hanna from the sync tank?"
Knowing Misato will never guess Maya continues to type with a slight smile. "Nope."
Not deterred Misato guesses again. "Tobu from Ops?"
Maya shakes her head. "Nope."
Thinking of the past topic Misato looks at all the Americans. "Don't tell me Second Branch is forcing you to give the chair to them."
"Sorry wrong again." Maya stops typing and turns to Misato wanting to see her response. "sixth Branch."
"Sixth?" Misato begins to remember where the sixth Branch is. "That's Australia."
"Yup she's pretty good for her age." Maya jestures as she hands Misato a folder that says SECRET on in.
"Age?" Misato says slowly as she opens the folder and begins to read the contents in side. "19!"
Nodding her head in pride for some reason she then to point out facts. "She just turned 19 but look at everything else."
"IQ 210!" Misato nearly losses her balance when she yells out. "Degrees in Chem. Bio, Micro, Quantum Physics, Chaos Theory Math, and Bio Chemical Engineering!"
"Impressed?" Maya says to Misato as she turns to type once more.
Still reading the information, she responds. "Where did you dig her up?"
"She dug her self up she wrote a thesis paper and sent it to us it was 99.1 accurate to Dr. Yui Ikari's S2 theorem so we sent an agent to collect her. Maya stops typing as she speaks. "Commander Fuyutsuki says that our agents picked her up before the UN found out."
"Unbelievable… Misato says. "What did she do at the sixth branch?"
"Number cruncher" Maya says slowly.
Misato looks over to Maya. "When will she be here?"
"Supposal later today…"

In the Commander's Office, Gendo looks to Fuyutsuki with a displeased look on his face. "Are you insane?" Gendo bellows deafeningly as Fuyutsuki smiles not saying anything to Gendo. "They will take half of everything… Their control freaks, they will want half of the responsibilities half of Command!"
"And your point, monsieur?" Fuyutsuki asks politely with no such worry in his voice.
"My point!" Gendo hisses with disgust. "I'm in charge!" He tosses a pamphlet on to his desk. "You went over my head and told the PM to issue a state of emergency then!" Gendo can't even finish his thought he is so mad. "This is ludicrous!"
"We needed an ally now that the UN has fallen, did we not?" Mumbles the vise commander not really caring what Gendo thinks.
"You don't care what I say do you!" Gendo spits as he stands in his seat and when Fuyutsuki shakes his head, Gendo begins to look for a gun. "You're looking for a new job?"
"First your shooting at you command staff so I'm not sure how my job security is here. I'm merely looking out for the interest of Japan and forefeeling Yui's wish. The Americans will now have a foot hold and you can't do anything about it." Fuyutsuki speaks with a stern tone. "Now, what you do with me is up to you, however it is you who should be worrying about their job."
"Is that a threat?" Gendo whisper in a dark tone.
"It's a warning… With out SEELE you're nothing…"

Walking to school on a brisk morning are the pilots or the world protectors. All the pilots seem to be in good spirits as they walks together Asuka holding the league bag on her shoulder and Violin case on her back. Shinji and Mana hold hands and walk just behind Asuka. With the twins just behind them, and Yukari has just finished sing a random Christmas carol.
When silence comes over the group, it's up to Yukari to start a conversation. "I hate half days…"
"Tell me about it…" Asuka mumbles not willing to look at Mana and Shinji.
With a cheerful gaze, as to rub it in Mana maneuvers closer to Shinji. "Its not to bad, we just have to pick up our progress reports. I didn't see a need to bring your violin Asuka?"
With her music classes still a secret Asuka merely shrug's her shoulder. "I might want to stay after and play."
'She's doing it again…' Shinji mind begins to wonder as Mana cuddles beside him. 'Why am I not happy…'
Rei, feeling the presence of her sister skipping be side her she goes to speak. "We have sync test this afternoon."
Asuka stops walking as a row of M1 Abram Tanks go rolling by. "Are you saying I have no time to practice?"
Rei can only hear the tanks that drown out Asuka. "What was that?"
Mana was a bit closer and heard Asuka. "Awe come on its not important is it?"
With the last tank going by Asuka turns and yells out to Mana. "Who the hell are you to tell me what's important you damn rookie!"
Asuka turns herself not letting Mana time to respond and she steps out into the road. Shinji begins to feel danger and looks up to see a speeding semi heading right for Asuka. He pushes Mana to the side and dives onto the road. Mana and Yukari cry out getting Asuka attention long enough to stare death in the face. But before the icy hands come down onto her, Shinji raps around her and holds out a hand. Even section two can be seen running but all stop when the fully loaded eighteen wheeler stop only feet from the two pilots as if it hit a brick wall. However what can be seeing is an orange octagon pattern of energy. The Semi crunches like a slinky and flips into the air and over top of the pilots. It plays in slow motion for all who can see; for Rei all she feels is her sister diving on her for cover and the sound of a crash. Nearly twenty feet from Shinji the Truck smashes onto the ground roof first.
With the dust settling Yukari rise off of her sister looking as dozen of people and American infantry are running to them. "Hey Shinji neat trick…"
Cowering in Shinji arms Asuka looks up to see the pail face of Shinji. His breathing is rapid and she is unable to say a thing before he falls into her arms. "Shinji…"
"Shinji!" Mana rushes over grasping Shinji knocking over Asuka ending the romantic seen. "Shinji are you okay!"
'Damn it I did it again…'
In a daze Shinji isn't sure what just happened but he's not going to get better as Asuka shoves Mana to the ground and takes Shinji. "Shinji you saved my life with an AT Field!"
With help from her sister Rei is standing once more brushing off her uniform. "She just said…"
Yukari looks to see that the truck drive is getting out of his demolished truck. "Yup…"
"That means…"
Yukari scratches her head. "Huh…"
"Well we better go…"
"I now…" Yukari walks over to see Shinji being grasped tightly by both Mana and Asuka. "I think we need to report this?"
Rubbing his head Shinji seems to know what just happened and looks around. "Does it look that bad?"
With car alarms going of Soldiers and civilians all around Section two are talking to the US military explaining some BS excuse for the flying truck involving weather balloons and gas on Venus. Cops are also pulling up onto the scene, so with a nod of her head she looks to Shinji. "Maybe if it was just a tad less people here…"

With Shinji placed in quarantine, all the female pilots look at him as he is attached to a million cords and wires by Captain Ibuki and random NERV personal. A Section two agent only gives them a quick looks before asking them to move along by silently blocking there view. Walking away Asuka rubs her arm as the girls gather there things.
"I can't believe it; I was seconds from death…"
With a smile Mana places her hand on Asuka shoulder just to irritate her which it does. "Its okay Asuka be glade that Shinji did what he did."
First to exit is Rei who did see anything so is bored by the conversation. However her trips ends quickly when she runs into a person. First to notice is Yukari who rushes out side taking hold of her sister. "Silly Rei, what happened."
Rubbing her head the female NERV second lieutenant lies on the ground her shoulder length brown hair covers her face and hides her sky blue eyes. "I'm really sorry ma'am." The Lieutenant does not even look at her as Yukari helps Rei back up. "Rei, how about you?" Rei gives a nod as she looks for her cane.
The Lieutenant stands and rubes her head as Rei stands in front of her. "Ma'am I'm really sorry I knocked you over." She still does not get a reply.
Yukari looks at the lieutenant with agitation. "Ma'am my sis is trying to apologies." She too gets no response from the young Lt. as the Lt Looks up at the two pilots and smiles as she parts her hair back. "Hello?" The Lt smiles and raises her hands to her ear. "You can't hear us." The Lt snaps her fingers and pats Yukari on the head.
Asuka and Mana pock there heads out and are first to see Kaji walking down the hall with his lady killer looks. "Kaji!" Both scream as he stops in front of everyone.
"Hi Girls." With no difference to his appearance since he was last at NERV HQ, Kaji walks over to the young Lt and begins to communicate in sign language. Asuka, Mana, and Yukari look dumb founded.
"I'm sorry I didn't know she was deaf…" Yukari says to the lieutenant.
Kaji looks on the ground the finds an odd shaped object and hands it to the Lt. She places it in her ear. "Is that better?"
The young LT begins to speak in English with an Australian ascent. "Thanks."
"Or not…" Asuka says in disbelief.
"Oh no Asuka she's very deaf." Kaji says as he straightens his loss fitted tie.
The LT smiles at Kaji's comment. "I'm probably as death has they come… machine in my ears allows me to hear."
Mana, Asuka and Yukari stand with blank expressions. "Oh…"
"It's funny…" Yukari points to the Lieutenant and Rei "The blind girl ran into the death girl…" Everyone gives wearily smiles to Yukari. "I can be the silent one and we have those monkeys…"
Asuka slaps her self in the head at such a stupid thought. "You're having one of your random thoughts again aren't you?"
"Yea…"
"Please don't…" Asuka walks over to the NERV officer that looks no more then five years older then her. "Don't mind her, we lost the remote and haven't been able to turn her off."
This brings a laugh from everyone but Yukari who watches as everyone begins to walk on. As they do Yukari gives a frown. "I'm the funny one, remember!"
Rei curious of this disabilities member of NERV asks the first logical question. "Ma'am Pilot Ayanami reports…"
The girl waves her hand in embracement. "Please my name is Elisabeth Winn... you can just call me Liz… or Bethy…"
"Ms… Elisabeth…" Rei speaks not to comfortable with nicknames. "You speak English…?"
"That's because I'm Ausi, mate…" Elisabeth begins to laugh a bit.
Kaji gives a warm smile as he looks back to the pilots. "Ms. Winn is going to be our new Evangelion Operation assistant in E-project. Speaking of E-project, we are looking for Maya."
"Ohh…." Mana point back from the way they came. "She's with Shinji…. He's in quarantine for generating a Field thinging, to save Asuka's life."

In the quarantine room Shinji has himself restrained and speaking with Misato who has Maya at her side. There is a dozen of other NERV personal scurrying about monitoring different things. For Misato she seems somewhat up set with her Shinji.
With a serious tone Misato asks Shinji. "How long have you been able to do this?"
"Well…" Shinji watches as Maya pulls out large needles and sets it on a tray. "Since the last Angel attack, so about two weeks…"
"Why haven't you told anyone?" With her hands on her hips Misato stares at Shinji.
Watching another odd shaped medical equipment being pulled out by Maya, this one looks like a tool for pain then for helping. "So this didn't happen to me…"
Maya stands with the try of multiple objects of pain with a smile. "Well let's just be glad you saved Asuka's life."
Raising an eyebrow Misato looks to see Kaji enter along side a very young and very cute Female lieutenant. "What are you doing here?"
"Escorting my dear…" Everyone turns to look at Kaji and the Young girl with him. Her looks evidently say that she's American however the flag patch on her shoulder says other wise. "Everyone meet the new NERV Evangelion Operation Assistant, Lieutenant Elisabeth Winn."
As everyone gives there hello's, Maya sets the tray down next to Shinji and she and Misato go over to her. Seeing that she has her backed turned as she shakes hand with a random NERV member, Maya calls out. "Hello…"
At first there is no response but Kaji turns Elisabeth his friends. Speaking English Kaji speaks into Elisabeth's ear. Because of their ignorance at the fact she is deaf Misato and Maya think that he is putting the moves on her.
So to remedy this Misato smacks Kaji upside the head. "She's only 19 you shameless flirt!"
Bighting on her nails Elisabeth steps back. "Bloody o…." She looks to Misato as she kicks Kaji now that he's on the ground. "Miss… He was just talking to me…"
Misato looks up to the young Ausi, and speaks English back to her.. "Yea it starts like that but then it before you know it he's kissing you…" Misato goes back to kicking Kaji.
"Ma'am… I'm deaf…"
Both Maya and Misato speak at the same time. "Oh… Oh…"
Quickly Misato helps Kaji back up and straightens his tie. She gives a smile and steps in front of him bowing to the young girl. "I'm sorry, is that why you speak English?"
Elisabeth watches as Kaji falls back down behind Maya. "Um... My earrings prostheses I have right know can only translate English, but I have Japanese…"
With a grin Misato also shakes the young girls hand as she stands straight up. "I'm Misato Katsuragi."
"Hi…" Maya tries to use the right English. "My name is Captain Maya Ibuki, its nice to meet you."
Looking at Misato's rank Elisabeth greets Misato. "Hello Captain… Captain… Ibuki…" Elisabeth gives a smile understanding what was said. "That makes you my new boss…"
With a little blush Maya rolls her eyes. "Yes…"
With greetings taken care of Misato and Maya walk the newest member of the NERV battle staff to Shinji. With a sarcastic voice Misato introduces him. "This is Shinji Ikari… the Third child…"
Picking up one of the tools Maya setup, Elisabeth gives a ironic grin. "Did he do something wrong… or do you use this stuff on those nice ladies I met to."
"No…" Misato pats Shinji on the head. "Just Shinji…"
Unable to do anything Shinji can only look away from Misato mumbling. "I can see I'm loved."
"He's somehow able to use an AT Field…" Maya states as she gathers more painfully shaped medical tools. "With out an Eva."
Knowing a lot of the subject Elisabeth steps back from Shinji. "That's a bad thing!"
"Excellent observation LT…" Misato begins to give Shinji a nuggy as she continues to use English. "I know you're new but any thoughts on what could cause it."
With a girlish smile Elisabeth points to her ears. "I would prefer to tell you when I have my Japanese Prostheses."
Maya looks at the prosthesis that conforms to Elisabeth's inner ear and held in place by rapping around the back of her ear. With a close observation she looks to a wire running into the ear.
"It must be convenient to mute the world… I now I would like it." Misato says not really thinking that its might be rude.
Maya turns and looks at Misato for such a comment, then back at Elisabeth for a response. "Well it really doesn't work like that… The implants and Prostheses only allow me to hear verbal sounds such as your voice… But nothing else…"
"Really, why is that?" Misato ponders as he leans forward.
Elisabeth pats on her back. "The implanted computer can't translate all sounds of audio. It hard drive only has enough room to handle one language… The language filers are the ear pieces I have one for each language I know. The Earpieces are just the receiver; I connect them in to my ear where fiber optic wires run to the ATI, Audio Translation Implant on my back." She points to her back. "It takes the filtered language it heard then removes background sounds and translates, however if the voice is singing it can't handle the harmony and it will drop it. Once it's translated and filtered it converts it to an energy pattern and sends it to my brain."
"Amazing… I mean…" Maya stops and looks away.
"Its okay, I cannot help it nor can you so there is no need to gripe over it." Elisabeth states as she smiles. "I mean I may only here speech but its no different then people who have never seen snow…" Everyone even Shinji listens as Elisabeth corrects herself. "Well I never seen snow, so that was a bad example."
"Still…" Shinji does his best to speak English for Elisabeth, his thoughts go back to Asuka and when she played the violin on the roof. "You never heard an instrument in your life not one note of music, and you never seen snow."
Elisabeth looks down with a smile to hide that fact that she is obviously isn't to happy. "As you can see, life for a deaf person that lives in Australia sucks…"
Shinji bows his head he looks to the new girl that is only five years older with sympathy. 'I thought I had it bad…' The thought reminds him of Rei, and her disability. 'So many others have it so much harder then me… Now… Now I can control use an AT Field out side of an Eva.' With no one paying attention Shinji focuses his AT Field to lift a pen on an adjacent table off the ground. 'Why was I given power… power I don't disserve…?'
Before Shinji can react to anything, he is waked in the head with rolled up sheets of paper. Misato strikes him till he drops the pen he had floating in the air. She looks over to Elisabeth after he drops it. "Watch yourself he's dangerous."
Shinji yells out to Misato upset with the welt on his head. "Look who's talking!"

On the surface they four female pilots walk together somewhat closer then usual however its not because of friendship. Its because the temperature has to twenty degrees in only hours putting it at a cool thirty two. Rei and Yukari are the coldest for many reasons however it is Asuka that seems the most complacent.
"Why is it so freak'n cold?"
As she rubs her arms Mana rolls her eyes at the boisterous Asuka. "Gee, I don't know God hates you."
'I hope it's not the Angel…' Yukari stares up to see thick grew clouds on the horizon. 'Christmas is only two days away I'm no were close to ending this.'
Rei clenches her sister's arm trying to stay cold. "The wind seems to be nearly double from this morning."
Looking around as the finally reach there apartment complex Asuka looks to Mana. "Time for us to go enjoy the cold."
Just as Asuka sticks her tongue out and pulls down her eyelid Rei calls out to Mana. "Miss Kirishima, if you wish you can come in and out of the cold.
"Rei!" Asuka shouts foiled that she has to play host to Mana.
"Thank you Rei…" Mana gives a smile as she steps away from Asuka. "I don't want to intrude…"
With a small shake of her head Rei cups her sister hand. "It will be not burden, I will make some tea."
"Can I come?" Yukari begins to jump up and down.
Asuka crosses her arms as Rei nods her head. "Sure why not let's have a bloody tea party!"
-

-
-
Once inside everyone enters and breathe in the warm air with a sigh. Asuka the most displeased out of everyone goes and sits down on a been bag chair and pulls out her violin and stares at it.
'Still not ready for you…'
As Rei seeming handles her self in making Tea. Yukari and Mana just watch her just incase she needs help. This slowly begins to bore the yellow eyes sibling so she touts over to Asuka sitting down in front of her like a cat. "Its pretty…"
Quickly Asuka puts the violin away not willing to let others see it. "What ever cat girl…"
Silence builds over the scene only the sounds of Rei making tea can be heard. After a long moment of silence Asuka looks to see Yukari hasn't even blinked and remains still staring at the violin. "What do you want?"
"Nothing…" Yukari leans in and only blinks once never setting her sights off the violin.
Once more silence returns this one is a lot shorter as Asuka gives out a sigh of frustration and pulls back the violin and bow. "What do you want me to play?"
"Something Christmassy!"
With a simple thought Asuka recalls no songs off the top of her head so she is forced pull out sheet music. "Err… bare with me I've only been playing for a couple of weeks."
"SenseiChisaki Hama says that your national quality."
With a sense of trust broken Asuka rolls her eyes at the name of the teacher. "When did she tell you this?"
Seeing that Asuka is demanding a straight answer Yukari simply scratches her cheek with her foot. "She didn't me kind of spied on one of your lessons."
"Figures…" Finding some decent sheet music Asuka begins to play 'O' Christmas tree.'
From the kitchen Rei is soothed by the sound of the music. Mana despite her problems with Asuka she too cannot help but be swayed by the quality. "She's pretty good."
"Just like Asuka…"

After hours of painful experiments Shinji sleeps in a empty and dark observation room. However the darkness is slowly filled with a light as appearing in front of Shinji is Inari Leiko she silently floats to the ground just as Shinji awakes.
"Inari…" Shinji garbles as he rubs his eyes. The girl only stands and smiles at Shinji. She wears her school uniform and puts her arms behind her back. 'I guess Angels don't speak.'
The thoughts of Shinji are quickly answered by the twelfth Angel. "Not in the way you speak… Ikari."
"So it's whole mind link ESP stuff?" With a nod of disagreement Shinji powers his head. "Can I at least think your doing it?"
"Sure…" Leiko goes over and sits next to Shinji. "I'm sure you have a lot of questions…"
With a sigh, Shinji looks over to his restraints limiting his movements to the bed. "Did you give me this?"
Placing her hand on Shinji she nods. "I only gave it a push; all of man have this power. You Shinji have gained this power for one purpose and one purpose only. It was this that you helped me unleash it."
"I want a lot of things…" Rolling his eyes Shinji begins to list them. "Like not having to save the world, I didn't have to fight, my mom wasn't inside Eva, the damn Easy-mart would carry fresher octopus… Don't get me wrong their eel is great…"
Giggling Leiko leans back in her chair. "You're so silly why don't you act like this around others."
"I'm afraid that I would hurt someone feelings." Shinji begins to rub the handcuffs on his arm. "In truth I'm not used to being with the same people for this long. When I was with my teacher I didn't have to worry about the long term."
Studying each word the little Angel lets some silence pass before continuing. "So you would play the game of appeasement till you moved on."
With a slight chuckle Shinji agrees with the observation. "I knew my get along attitude had a shelf life of four months. Its decreases when I'm forced to interact."
"The sisters…" Leiko blushes as she thinks of Yukari. "The Ayanami twins, I'm sure they changed you.
"Funny thing about those two…" Shinji smiles as he looks back to the time he first met both. "I had a crush on Rei since I saw her… When Yukari should up I could help but feel like we were family, especially when they stayed over. It was bliss. In the end I have changed thanks to everyone, even Mana. The smile leaves his face as he looks back to the time Mana betrayed him. "Mana… I want to lover her the same way I loved her before…"
"Well I will try to answer your questions…" Leiko leans in and takes Shinji's hand to tell him shocking news. "Rei… and Yukari… They are your sisters."
With a bust of laughter Shinji is unableto control himself, however he looks up to see that Leiko look is dead serious. "Inari, you can stop joking." The young girl looks away and Shinji's hopes that she is lying begins to disappear. "Your joking right." Leiko shakes her head no. "That means…"
"That means you are family…"
Shaking his head Shinji leans to the edge of the bed and begins to spit. "That means I kissed my sister!" Shinji realizes that he kissed both. "I kissed both of them!"
As Shinji begins to throw up, Leiko leans to the side with a curious look. "Were they frenchers..." Shinji looks up and nods be for throwing up again. "Well that is pretty bad but that's not really the point."
"How!"
"Well…" Leiko points into the air. "You father used your mothers eggs to create clones of her by splicing the DNA with Angels."
Finished purging himself Shinji looks up wiping his mouth. "I have half sister?" Seeing a nod Shinji breaths a sigh as he clenches his fist. "Why the hell would my dad do such a thing!"
Looking down Leiko once more must tell some bad news. "They have many reasons but the reason they exist to day is so when all the Angels are destroyed he was going to use them to end the world.
"But Yukari and Rei would never listen to my father!" Shinji notes as he sits up in his bed.
Not disagreeing Leiko points out what she said. "Was, Yukari changed everything… Now with his avatar gone there is only one why for him to end the world."
"And that is…"
"Pandemonium…"
Looking to his feet Shinji somehow understands the Angel. "Yukari, she's was right… All this time she's been trying to stop him…" With anger surging in him Shinji looks to Leiko. "Why do the Angels attack?"
"Your father took something from us…" Leiko also begins to show hatred for Gendo. "They stole Adam… the next Angel is coming… Armisael is coming for one purpose and one purpose only." Shinji looks to see that there is only truth being spoken. "To kill the world of man."
"Why tell me this?" Shinji reaches out to touch Leiko but is restricted by his restraints. "You are one of them, I'm your enemy."
"Armisael will not rest unless the first blood drawn is that of the Ayanami sisters." Leiko takes Shinji hands and pleas to him. "I love Yukari! I couldn't live unless she is safe."
"Oh…. Oh…" Still trying his best to get used to the same sex relationship, Shinji looks back to an interesting fact. 'Well there is ten females for each male in the world.'
"I need you to stop Armisael!" Leiko grabs Shinji's shoulders and begins to cry. "There is only one why to do this…"
"There's a little problem…" Shinji shows his restraints then points out side. "Even if I do get these things off there are nearly a hundred people who would come and stop me. I refuse to kill a human."
"I will help you…"
Shaking his head Shinji crosses his arm. "I'm not letting you kill any one either."
"Shinji will you become one with me."
Throwing his harms up in defense Shinji shakes his head. "No thanks!"
"If we don't do it your sister's will die!"
Before Shinji speaks he gives disgusted look. "That sounded really wrong."
Leiko rubs Shinji's shoulder with a sad schoolgirl look on her face. "Please I want to do it with you."
Slapping himself in the head for how stupid it sounds Shinji pulls Shinji to shoulder length. "The Day it snows six feet in Tokyo 3 is the day I will do it…" Shinji goes over the words in his head. "I mean become one with you…"
"Really!" Leiko smiles brightly and takes Shinji's hands again. "You will do it with me if it snowed 6 feet!"
Shinji gives up and bows his head. "What ever; just stop saying that?"
"Saying what... do it"

Next Problem… You had to do it… The splendorous day of murderous intent….
