Chapter 3; Set the wheels in motion


/Katsuragi household/

Shinji; Well that sure was an… interesting day

Asuka; Yeh yeh, you got you're perverted thrill for the day, so shut up & get me an ice pack

Shinji; sigh ok, sometimes I wish my mother was different & I could stay with her

Asuka; Oh stop complaining, you sound like a broken record… who knew you're mother would turn out worse than you're father, work wise?

Shinji; Oh please don't mention my father… that new kid C.j acts just like him

Asuka; Don't you dare mention his name again, bastard, he probably aimed at my shapely posterior, just to be sickingly perverted… MEN

Shinji Mumbling; As if he could miss an ass like that

Asuka; WHAT DID YOU SAY?

Shinji; Ah… nothing, nothing at all… please Asuka for the love of god, put down that fridge… NOOOOOO!

Pen-pen; Wark! (Bollocks, not again)

/Greengo's hell hole/

Chris; Next time & remember to bring money please

Greengo; Fuck up, as if I have yen anyways

James; packet of crisps would been satisfactory

Greengo; FUCK UP

C.j; heh, at least I had my fun

Greengo; & you call me perverted

C.j; Yes, yes I do

Greengo; Ooook, well first some food & then the next phase

Chris; Agreed

/Rei's place/

After her usual shower whilst standing there letting the water fall onto her snow white face & run down her body, she was contemplating the droplets of water obscuring her view of the light within her eyelids, she turned off the shower & walked out of the tiny bathroom whilst grabbing a towel on the way, as she finished drying herself off she held on to the ends of the towel whilst it was around her neck & walked over to the cabinet to take her medication.

Rei; Mmmm… dissolvable fruit flavoured vitamin tablets

She said to no particular person, the blue haired girl then opened the compartment in the cabinet & pressed a few buttons before stepping into the middle of her room & formed a pose as the device loaded up, it turned out to be a c.d player as it played a silent moment & footsteps could be heard with eeirie noises building up until a female voice could be heard saying something along the lines of 'time for you're medication', suddenly a loud psychopathic laugh blurted out from both the sterio & Rei;

Rei Singing; Oooooooohhh, Wife comes to find me, out of controoooolllll, I live along inside my miiiiiinnnnnd, world of confusiooooonnn, can feel the noiiiise, who says in my land says it Weeeelll, TRAPPED in this nightmaaaare, id wish id waaaaakke, as my whole life begins to shake, FOUR WALL's surround meeee, in an empty cassee, I cant find my way out of this plaaaaaceeee, & I don't care for in or out , could without a doubt, HELP MEEE, I cant take the pain & don't feel the shame… IT'S A MAD HOUSE… OR SOO THEY CLAIIMMM, IT'S A MAD HOUSE… Ohhhh AM I INSANE?...

Unfortunately as we all would like to hear more of this amusing concept of Rei singing "Madhouse" by Anthrax, her mobile phone starts to ring, she grabbed the phone & walked over to the cabinet turning off the stereo in one stride.

Rei; Hello?

Shinji; Hey Rei, listen are you busy?

Rei; Not really… why?

Shinji; I was just wondering, would you care to go out with me tonight… there's a party

Rei; I… im afraid I must decline, I have no social clothes…I

Shinji; Oh don't worry about that, take a look outside you're house

Rei walked towards the door & opened it to see a box lying on the door step, she quickly grabbed it & went back in for she remembered she was naked, she opened it to peek inside before Shinji continued talking.

Shinji; Did you see it?

Rei; Y…yes… interesting choice…

Shinji; So then will you go?

Rei; …

Shinji; Please say yes

Rei; …Ok

Shinji; Great I'll be there soon

Click

/Katsuragi household/

Rei; Great, then come over here

Click

Shinji ended his conversation & looked into the box once more before Asuka broke his train of thought.

Asuka; Who was that?

Shinji; I… It was Rei?

Asuka; Wonder girl?... What did she want?

Shinji; She wanted me to come with her to a party tonight

Asuka; Oooooook… Have you been smoking cannabis?

Shinji; WHAT… NO, seriously, it was Rei & she left this box outside containing some clothes

Asuka; Y'no… if you don't want to tell me, just say instead of coming up with an excuse like that… GEEZ like anyone would believe that

Shinji; But… !

He never got to continue his defence for Asuka quickly slammed her bed room door shut, he looked once more at the clothes before deciding not to keep Rei waiting

In a dark room a figure looked at the phone near bye & began to chuckle in a psychotic way… Suddenly someone opened the door & caught the person by surprise…

C.j; Hey Greengo… ? Why's it so damn dark in here?... ARE YOU HAVING PHONE SEX AGAIN?

Greengo; What… NOOOO, I was just initiating the next step to my plan

C.j; Hence the black device taped to the phone… that a speech synthisiser?

Greengo; Hehe

C.j stepped back out leaving Greengo to his thoughts

Greengo; Phone sex… I haven't done that in a while… now where's that phone book?

/Outside Rei's place/

Shinji was just approaching Rei's door whilst also trying to fight the nervousness… it appeared Rei foretold this for there was a flask of whiskey was in the breast pocket of his 'interesting' shirt, he took a swig & then started coughing & gasping for air 'Smooth' was his idea of the whiskey. After re-composing himself he pressed the buzzer & awaited a reply.

Rei; Hello, Ikari?

Shinji; Hi Rei… you ready?

Rei; Nearly, one moment… these clothes you gave me are a bit tight to put on easily

Shinji; Ok… Wait… I gave you?

The buzzer cut off just as Shinji was about to inquire further, he looked at the flowers that Misato gave him after seeing him on his way out, he explained & Misato was more believing than Asuka & said that he shouldn't go up to her place without bringing a gift, so she quickly grabbed some flowers from the window cil & wrapped them up one of her decorative shopping bags, adding some tape, no-one would know the difference… he thought she was being awfully kind & considerate before that is… she gave Shinji a packet of condoms ((MY NOTE; I wont be using the eva brand condom joke… it's gone on to long & I suspect the original guy must be really pissed off by now)) he tried to convince her that it wouldn't turn out like that but she said that after seeing him in those clothes she knew that the kinda place he was going to, they did that thing all the time & then gave Shinji a wink, a kiss & a pat on the backside on his way out. Just as he tried to figure out why Rei would ask him to wear such clothes & if indeed Misato was correct to assume that they were going to that kind of place, Rei opened the door, well he thought it was Rei, at least the face was Rei… she was wearing a leather corset with a shoulderless top underneath that was see through & ended in big puffy sleeves with frills all round… also, as he looked down, a figure hugging knee length skirt with a side-slit revealing stripy stockings which lead down to calve high strapped latex spiked heels. He stood there wide eyed & jaw gapping for a moment before looking back up to see her in an almost same facial expression… minus the gapping jaw, for he was wearing a black shirt with flames at the bottom & baggy bondage trousers with straps & all, also he had very large clunky looking boots that had lots of fastenings, as her gaze looked back up towards his, she blushed before responding.

Rei; Wh… What is it?.. am I wearing this attire correctly?

Shinji; Uh… yeah, I just would have never knew that this was you're taste

Rei; What do you mean?... You gave me the clothing

Shinji; What… No you gave me these

Rei; This is most strange… im sure it was you on the phone requesting a night out

Shinji; I was on the phone but it was you requesting the date

Just as the two pilots were trying to make sense of things (as if much ever made sense in there world) a black limo pulled up outside the building & tooted, they both looked at each other briefly

Shinji; You don't suppose someone is trying to set us up together?

Rei; It seems the most possible reason, do you suppose that limo is for us

Shinji; Well with all that has happened so far… probably yes

They both made there way down to the limo & Shinji enquired the driver if it was for them, the driver just looked at a photo he had & nodded, Shinji climbed in before remembering manners & quickly jumped back out & then held the door for Rei to enter. Rei was studying the alchohol collection & then Shinji remembered the flowers.

Shinji; Oh yeah I almost forgot… here

Rei; Oh… thank you

Shinji; Well although this is weird, there is still no reason as not to have fun

Rei; indeed… do you know where this limo is taking us?

Shinji; Um… no, hold on turns round Excuse me driver, where are we going

Driver; Sorry im not permitted to give out that information

Shinji; Oh… Ok, anything you can tell me?

Driver; … That ive to wait for 6 hours, then either go fetch you or drive if you turn up

Rei; Six hours… can you tell us who is paying?

Driver; Sorry, anonymous phone call with cash paid up front

Rei; I see… thank you

They both turned back round as the limo pulled up outside a building, Shinji climbs out & opens the other door for Rei, he cant help but look at her bust as they are pushed up thanks to the corset, he mentally kicks himself & helps her up & then places her arm around his… she stares at the entwined arms & blushes slightly before proceeding to make her way into the building. Inside they were greeted by loud metal music as this place turned out to be a metal/rock club, a chirpy gothic woman clasped eyes on the newly arrived couple as Shinji was taking another swig & Rei seemed indifferent but if the music wasn't so loud we would find out that she was humming along to the music, the goth walked up to them & introduced herself.

Gothic lady, Hi there welcome to the club 'o' M, weve been expecting you, this way please

They followed her to a secluded part near the back where a candle lit table was waiting for them with little name cards with both there names next to there seats, once again remembering manners Shinji pulled out Rei's seat & she nodded & sat. Once Shinji sat down at his seat , the gothic lady gave them a menu before saying.

Gothic lady; Would you car for a drink whilst you decide on you're order?

Shinji; Erm… Gee I don't know really, what about you Rei?

Rei; looking at the drinks list … Pinacolada please

Shinji; well I'll have… Tiger, whats that?

Gothic lady; That is a very good beer, Mr Ikari

Shinji; Well I'll guess I'll have a tiger beer then, thank you

Gothic lady; You're welcome… so that's a pinocolada & tiger coming right up

Shinji; So Rei, I… I never knew you like Pinocolada's

Rei; I've never had one

Shinji; Oh… So why did you…?

Rei; Same reason you picked Tiger beer

Shinji; I see

Rei; So, what are you picking for main course?

Shinji; … Um… Steak sounds good, how bout you?

Rei; I dislike meat remember?

Shinji; Oh right, sorry

Rei; There is no need to appoligise, I think I will have the vegetarian special

Shinji; Ok… & what about the dessert?

Rei; I don't usually have dessert, what should I choose

Shinji; Erm… don't worry none of them have meat chuckles slightly

Rei; I see… I will have the double chocolate chip mint ice cream then

Shinji; Mmmm… sounds good, I think I'll have it too

The Gothic lady comes back with there drinks, smiles, & flips out a note pad

Gothic lady; So what will you have?

Shinji; I'll have the steak & Rei will have the vegetarian special

Gothic lady; Oooooook & dessert

Shinji; We'll both have double chocolate mint ice cream

Gothic lady; All righty then, enjoy you're drinks

They both look about, Shinji is wondering how they can have a candle lit dinner in a place such as this… for some reason they are & Rei ponders why some of the couples are so close to each other, they both take a sip of there drink

Shinji; Well… at least it's smoother than the whiskey, How's the drink Rei?

Rei; It is… agreeable

Shinji; Good

Rei; Shinji?

Shinji; Yes?

Rei; What are those people doing?

Shinji looking; There… groping

Rei; Why?

Shinji; To show how much they like each other… I guess

Rei; I see… So you "groped" me

Shinji Chokes on drink; Phhh,Gakk… What?

Rei; When you were in my apartment to give me my school papers… you "groped" me

Shinji; That was an accident, I didn't mean to grope you

Rei; Oh… Do you not wish to grope me on purpose?

Shinji; … What, Rei I would never do anything like that

Rei; Because you do not like me?

Shinji; But I do like you Rei, I just didn't think you would be into that

Rei; So you like me & Wish to grope me?

Shinji; No…I don't really know, I think of you as a friend & friends don't grope

Rei; Ok

Shinji; Are you ok?

Rei; …

Gothic lady; Heres you're meal, enjoy

Shinji; Thank you,… So Rei is there something on you're mind?

Rei; Nothing, let's eat

They sat there eating there food In silence, occasionally taking glances at each other without the other knowing, that is until "walk" by Pantera played, well Shinji didn't know what it was but he could have sworn Rei was nodding her head along to the tune. She proceeded to do so until she felt a shiver & looked up to see that it was because Shinji was staring at her. There eyes connected in a moment that seemed to be an eternity, both losing themselves in the others dark pools to the soul, Shinji was reminded of the time after the battle with the fifth angel, he remembered that as he looked into the shakened up albino's eyes at first he only saw his reflection as if there was nothing deeper to the girl, but in a moment after asking her to smile her eyes deepened revealing her emotions & soul, in a way he thought that he unlocked her emotions from there dormant state. He then noticed that her eyes had started to show even more life than back then. He smiled & she blushed.

Rei; Shinji, why are you looking at me & smiling?

Shinji; Because I realised what a beutifull girl you are

Rei; I…I see

Shinji; Do you like this song?

Rei; Yes

Shinji; Do you wish to dance?

Rei; … … … I would like that very much

Shinji rose from his seat & walked around to Rei's side, offering her his hand to help her up, she grasped it ever so gently & rose, then they made there way to the dance floor. Shinji was trying his best to dance along but for two facts; he never danced before, & didn't exactly know how to interpret the beat of this song, Rei however was head banging along & generally looking like a pro dancer with swaying her hips seductively & running her hands up & down her body occasionally going through her short hair, Shinji couldn't help but gaze in awe as this once seemingly shy, emotionless girl who always had her nose tucked in a book or sat there in deep thought, was now fully expressing herself & dang sexily at that. Unfortunately she is frozen in her tracks as it dawns on her that Shinji is watching her instead of trying to dance (like most guys, they cannot dance, I know for I am one :P) she immediately stopped & looked down at her feet whilst clasping her hands, Shinji felt guilty for making her nervous, a feeling that he knew to well, he walked over to her & stroked her cheek making a feeling rush through Rei that she couldn't explain, so her face could only show shock & surprise, she cupped her hands around his & looked as if she was about to cry, but not cry in pain, but cry in happiness, before she knew it, she had moved further towards Shinji & he as a reflex wrapped his arms around her. They both embraced each other not knowing what they were doing, but gradually both became more secure & put more emotion into there actions. The D.j saw this & decided to put a slower song on, on came "change (in the house of flies)" by Deftones & all the couples began to slow dance… Shinji & Rei swayed to the song contemplating the moment, Rei thought about there previous talk & whispered into Shinji's ear

Rei; Would now be good time to grope?

Shinji; What?

Rei; I observed the others that are in similar situations to our own & they express themselves further by groping

Shinji; Oh, do you really want me to?

Rei; I am uncertain, but I wish to see what' so good about it now

Shinji;… … … OoOoOKkKkKkk…

Shinji's nervenessnous was back with a vengeance, but the whiskey seemed to be kicking in as he slid his arms from Rei's shoulders towards her behind, she gasped slightly as he was passing her lower back & was filled with the unknown feeling once more, it was quite a burning sensation but not that of the fires a pain & hurt, more towards happiness & longing?. Unfortunatly before Shinji could get a good feel his nose started to gush with blood, Rei snapped out of her moment & lead him away from the dance floor back to there table.

Rei; Are you ok?

Shinji; Yeah… I'll be fine, just a stupid reaction to situations like that

Rei ; I see… do you wish to have our dessert now?

Shinji; Ok I guess that will cool me down… wait this is only one bowl of ice cream

Rei; I guess they presumed that we would be sharing

Shinji; Oh… well that's fine with me, how about you?

Rei; Yes

As they sat eating there ice cream they both began to relax again, Shinji was taking chunks out of it to 'cool' himself off as he stopped momentarily to see Rei taking ever so small spoonfuls & quietly slipping them in her small cute mouth, she looked up with the spoon in her mouth, he smiled.

Shinji; You look so cute

Rei; …

Shinji; Is something wrong

Rei; It has come to my attention that you have become more… confident, is there a reason for this?

Shinji; Im not sure, I guess im just growing up & come to terms with some stuff

Rei; Such as?

Shinji; Well… it's kinda hard to phrase but… once I was ordered to go into DOGMA by Ritsuko & she took me & Misato into this room… where I saw…

Rei; My clone sisters?

Shinji; … Yes

Shinji; And what did you think?

Shinji; That's what ive been so quiet about… I didn't really know what to think, but now I don't really care I really like you & you make me feel so comfortable … anyway the clones im afraid… are dead

Rei; There still there

Shinji; What?

Rei; They were brought back along with everyone else… there still down there

Shinji; Oh… how do you feel about that?

Rei; I am fine with it… they are truly content without souls & if I die… my soul will go into one of them

Shinji; You wont die… the angels are gone we can live in peace now

Rei; Indeed

Shinji; Care to dance some more?... im feeling better now

Rei; I'd like that very much

& with that they proceeded to make there way to the dance floor

/Greengo's hell hole/

The usual suspects sat there observing the close circuit security camera's watching the two continue dancing.

Greengo; Phase complete

Chris; Aww… so cute

James; I feel like having some ice cream now

C.j; I trust it was you that had something to do with Shinji getting more confident?

Greengo; Of course… turns out his SDAT player was playing subliminal messages during the songs he listened to during sleep… thus making him the little sod that I despise, I stole it, but tis a slow process on recovery

C.j; Indeed… who knew that much blood came out the nose in a 'near' attempt

James; Im Amazed he can stand up

Greengo; Now for the next phase

Chris; You mean that you're still not done?… but Shinji & Rei look happy & that it might go into a stable relationship

Greengo; Oh im not done yet, for although I am an R/S fan… im gonna see if my plan works

C.j; If you're doing what I think you're doing… you're gonna need a lot more than deprivaty of subliminal messages

Greengo; You'll see Grins evilly
