Tears of an Angel
Chapter 6
"RUSSIA SHINING FORK STRIKE!!" Toji called out from under the blankets. He began throwing tons of plastic utensils at Asuka's fort as she remained behind her fortress with protection. She broke out, from her handbag, her secret weapon- milk bottle caps. And the worst kind too- BLUE!!!
"GERMANY DANGEROUS DAIRY CLASH!!" Asuka shouted as she threw milk bottle caps, that were plastic too mind you, at Toji but ducked just in the nick of time.
"Dammit," cursed Toji as he crouched down lower. We've been battling for a while and still no K.O.! I will win! HA, HA, HA!"
Rei was starting to get a headache from listening to this for so long, so she stood up and when to the bathroom for a minute.
A minute passed.
When she was done, Rei stepped out into the hallway to find PenPen (still in his sombrero) covered in confetti and ribbons, quacking happily from the living room where Toji and Asuka fought. Rei ran into the room to find Asuka and Toji shaking hands like the best of friends, and they were smiling.
"What's going on here? Weren't you guys fighting?"
"We signed a peace treaty," Asuka said with a glow in her face.
"Yeah, we realized our differences after all."
Rei had a sweat drop falling down her head while she tried to calm PenPen down. "Well, at least they resolve things through words instead of fists."
At the cemetery~
"Midnight? What time is it?" Shinji asked with anticipation. Just then, the large clock tower's bells began to chime. Midnight was now in full effect.
"Oh, no!"
"Listen Shinji," Tabris said as he moved Kaworu's hands to Shinji's shoulders holding him steady, "You're a good young man, with a big heart. Never forget that, do you understand? Now I think I know why my other side found you so attractive. You have the purest soul and the greatest heart. I'll miss you. 'Ya just grew on me. Live happily with Kaworu, and keep him safe. Go ahead Shinji. Do it. Farewell."
Nine chimes already passed. Shinji quickly held Kaworu's hand with one of his own hands and held Kaworu's face with the other and gave a deep, sweet kiss as the last chime rung. Time: 12:01 a.m.
The white, celestial power wave coming out from Kaworu's body disappeared and the black glow in his eyes vanished as they closed. He did not move right away. It began to rain as Shinji did not break the kiss and just deepened it.
"SHINJI!!!!!!!" a voice screamed out from the head of the cemetery. It was Misato who was very wet as Shinji and Kaworu. Shinji broke the kiss but nothing happened. Misato's eyes were the widest they could be with tears flowing from them. The three of them were miles from home in the dead of a rainy night in June.
"Kaworu? Kaworu?" Shinji said meekly as he shook the motionless body on his lap with no respond. "Kaworu? Kaworu? Kaworu, please. Get up. Get up! For me! Please, Kaworu!" However, Kaworu did not move an inch.
"Oh God no," Misato whispered to herself. "No, no, no."
"Kaworu? Get...up." Shinji was crying so hard that he would be dehydrated if he tried any harder. "Up...up...rise...Kaworu...get up...please." No answer. Shinji was in shock. "I-I-I........I was too....late, Misato. I was too late." Shinji wept in Kaworu's soaked hair breaking apart piece by piece. "Kaworu? KAWORU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" The echoes ran through Tokyo in the night. Misato lost the feeling in her legs and fell besides Shinji as he went utterly silent. Misato just put her hand on Shinji's shoulder as she began to cry loudly. "I'm so sorry, Misato. The ramen....is all wet." Misato just cried some more when all Shinji could say to apologize to her was about dinner that was never brought home. "Mother," Shinji spoke, "you've been out of my life twelve years tonight. Kaworu, please, don't leave me! I love you." The tear on Shinji's eye fell onto Kaworu's lips that disappeared instantly.
Misato didn't know if she was going crazy when she thought that Kaworu's hand was beginning to move.
