Disclaimer: Neon Genesis Evangelion isn't mine... wish it was though, so I could make a mini-episode ofit and save Kaworu's life in the end… but I can't cuz it's not mine… So while you read this fanfic, I'll go cry in the corner over there…
I'm sorry I'm taking so long with this, I have too much schoolwork and crap to worry about, but I SWEAR I will finish this off eventually…

In the Beginning
Chapter 3: Heaven out of Hell
Who could have predicted that that innocent kiss would have unleashed so much in such a tender world? Each day they met under the stars, to gaze at each other and talk about time, beauty… and their future…
"Do you recall someday we'll be able to dwell in this world together Tabris?"
"Why do you ask that Fati? Is it your wish to live?"
"Yes… I want to experience those things that I can only see now… I want to touch, to feel… I want to breathe and not belong to darkness, only for once…"
"Then it'll be as you desire it my deuce… We shall live together in the world… I promise…"
But little did they know, that their dreams would be torn apart slowly, as Heaven and Hell cannot be united, and those who dare attempt this are punished for their disobedience to the roles they have to play…
It was one night, after time had already been invented, when their world started to collapse in front of them… The night was young as she danced silently in his arms, the moonlight bathing her sweet, melancholic face. He stared into her eyes, uneasiness creeping into his heart…
"Fati, what is wrong?"
She looked at him for the fist time during that night. His face was veiled by anxiety… It pained her so much to see him like this, but she couldn't tell him that she feared for his security, that Mother had prevented her from that feeling, that it would only cause her pain. She Strained a smile into her features, as his arms pulled closer to her… He didn't wanted to hurt him, but she knew it was part of her nature… and this shattered from the inside…
" I'm all right Tabris, please don't worry for me… I just feel tired, lightheaded… The earth is not as warm as Hell, I suppose that is affecting me…"
He smiled gently and pushed her fragile body into the coolness of the grass. Swiftly he enfolded her with his elegant, white coat as she was pulled closer to him, her cold lips awaiting patiently for his to warm her… But before the kiss was even conceived, a strong blow took them both by surprise. He fell back, a sharp pain stabbing him in the side of his face. His eyes opened to find the stoical look of Armisael in front of him. He was too surprised to react, to think on what was going on as the hand of his older brother caressed his reddened cheek and tearful eyes…
"Tabris… look at what you have made me do… I'm sorry, but I cannot let you go on with this… it has to be stopped…"
Graciously he stood up, his well-built body attired in his golden and red battle suit, his wings folded behind his back. His right hand pulled out the sharp blade of the sword as he advanced towards the crumpled figure that laid unmoving on the grass across him… It took him a while to realize the truth in front of him, that his brother was going to kill the one he loved…
"NO! ARMISAEL STOP!"
His scream echoed in the world as he frantically stood up and ran towards him, but before he could get close enough, something hard and bleak smashed him hard on the head, knocking him out cold on the moist earth.
"Tabris!"
Armisael turned around and stared at Matarael as he picked up the slumped figure of his younger brother into his arms.
"I'll take him home, you take care of that she-demon…"
As her eyes slowly opened, the icy glimmer of the blade shone on her features… her gaze met with the angel's as the sword struck her hard on the chest, barely missing her heart.
A shattering scream was heard throughout the world as she laid on the scarlet puddle of blood, her body shivering under the blanket of death… her pallid hand reached out for the blade as it prepared itself for another blow, and her fire burned into the flesh of her attacker as she made an effort to stand up and face the destiny she had heard from her mother. Her vision was fading rapidly but still she could make out a misty figure that advanced towards her. Her legs were to weak to move and her head was spinning badly. The soft sound of her thick blood resonated in her heart as the foggy image of the angel gyrated around her. Suddenly, a terrible pain shot through her body as the slender hand of her attacker collided with her back, just were her wound was. Furiously she swung the blade and felt it connect with a soft body. There was a gasp, the figure moved away, but it immediately came back. She fell to the floor bleeding as the brutal hand smacked her right across the face. Weakly her body tried to stand up, but each time she achieved it, a sharp blow knocked her to her knees again and again. Life was running away from her swiftly, she could not longer see anything…
Fati… Fati…
"Mo…ther…"
The angel laughed cruelly as the deuce tried to stand up again… His brother observed everything with a bored look… Such a pity that she had been defeated so easily…
"Nobody can help you now deuce, so don't even try. Can't you see? You no longer exist!"
Don't give up Fati… don't ever give up…Her grasp on the sword tightened. Something wasn't right…
"Armisael, kill her already…"
"There's no need, she's almost…"
Slowly, her body stood up. Her eyes where clean, unexpressive, as she advanced towards the amazed angel. Her hand moved towards his face, caressing that soft, white skin. And then, she pulled his eye out…
OHMYGOD! I can't believe I finally finished the episode 3! Do you know how MUCH time it took me to complete this! Ah! Damn you I.B's, for not allowing me enough time to write with all your useless essays, projects, homework's and 5-day fieldtrips.
Anyway! I am very, very, VERY sorry that this took so long, I really hope there is still SOMEONE our there that actually wants to read something written from me, 'cuz I definitely took way too long to do this. As you can see, the story is becoming pretty much… um, bloody? Just if the blood level it had before wasn't enough… I really love how this episode ended. Who would have expected something like that? I know it is a bit clichéd, but it's still worth it right?
So, I have to go and start writing the next one (I SWEAR It'll come out sooner… hopefully I still have readers that await me T-T) so see you later, and thanks for waiting!
