Split Worlds EVA mini- series
Several days after her ordeal with the empress, Fiona and the others found that Anata had locked her self away in their bedroom. Unable or unwilling to come out. Looking at the closed door, Fiona let out a heavy sigh and started back to the living room. Where she found her mother and father talking quietly amongst them self's.
"It's no use, she just doesn't want to come out. I'm worried." Fiona said as she sat there on the couch with her parents.
"You must understand something about Anata, she hurts for all the life she had taken. True she was only defending herself, but she still feels for that lost life and she must come to terms with that on her own." Belldandy said.
"But it's not her..... I know we've only known her for just about a week and a half, but it's just now her. She's always so positive and full of life and if she would see me like that she would do everything she could do to make me feel better......" Fiona said then stopped talking and looked back down the hall and walked back to their room.
Stopping at the door, Fiona found her self again looking at the closed door. 'Anata.....' Fiona thought to herself. Taking a deep breath Fiona then knocked on the door.
In the room Anata head the knock and looked over at the door. "GO away!" She shouted then berried her face in to the pillow.
"It's my room too!" Fiona said back from behind the door. Letting out a moan, Anata pulled the blankets up over her head.
Not hearing anything from Anata, Fiona slid the door open. In the room she found that Anata had hid her self in her futon and under her blankets. Walking up to the lump of blankets and looked down.
"You need to get up." Fiona bluntly said. But there was nothing from the lump of blankets.
"I don't know how you feel, but I know if you saw me like how you are now, you would do anything to make me feel better. So stop feeling sorry for your self and get up out of bed." Fiona said her hands akimbo.
Hearing her sister, Anata sat up in the futon and looked over at Fiona. "Just pray that you don't ever feel the pain that I feel." Anata said back at Fiona.
"And I pray that I don't neither." Fiona said. "But you need to get on with your life."
"Do you know how it feels to have the blood of something that was once living in your hands? Do you know how it is to look someone in the eyes as they die? You really have no place to tell ME to get on with me life." Anata said then she flopped back to the futon and again pulled the blankets back over her.
Shaking her head, Fiona then walked over to the window and opened the blinds then walked back over to Anata and ripped the blankets off of her. Letting the sun light shine on her. "WHAT THE HELL!"
"Get up, and take a bath. You'll feel better after that." Fiona said as she walked over to the door.
"Just what the hell do you think you're doing?" Anata asked.
"This would be the so called kick in the ass to get you motivated." Fiona replied.
Anata just rolled over and looked at her sister; it was a shock to hear her even says such a thing.
"If you weren't my sister, I would have clocked you upside the head." Anata said as she sat up again rubbing her head.
Fiona just shrugged her shoulders. "And when you get done with the bath, you and I are going to the heavens."
"Why?" Anata asked.
"Because something's going on up there that you might like to know about." Fiona replied with a smile.
Back in the living room, Keiichi and Belldandy had over heard everything from Fiona. And when she came back to the living room she was met with two questioning looks.
"What?" She asked.
"Did.... Did you just say ass?" Keiichi asked.
"I must admit that I too am surprised to hear such a thing from you." Belldandy added.
"What it was only to get Anata motivated." Fiona said quickly.
"Well I guess if it was for a good cause it's all right....." Belldandy said.
"Just don't make a habit of it." Keiichi added.
Mean while in the Goddess of the earth universe, Raziel was sitting in front of the TV watching old reruns of Star Trek. When Skuld came in to the room and turned off the TV.
"What Gives! That was the best part for the whole season!" Raziel yelled.
Raziel quickly received a bop on the head. "Don't yell at your aunt!"
Rubbing his head Raziel and looked up at Skuld. "What... and that hurt."
"Yeah, Yeah... Come on I've got to run a test." Skuld said taking Raziel by the arm and dragging him off to her megshift lab.
"What type of tests?" Raziel asked.
Still leading Raziel to her lab, Skuld replied. "Simple I need to get your quantum variance."
"My what?"
"Oh never mind..... It's too hard to explain to someone who's not even out of high school yet." Skuld said as she closed the door to the lab. "Now get out the table."
Raziel looked over at the table that just so happened to have something hanging above it with several probes, sensors and other measurement devices all of them looking dangerous in one way or another.
"You're kidding right?" He asked.
As Skuld started to type something on a computer, Raziel quietly started to make it back for the door to make his escape, but his Aunt raised her hand and snapped her fingers. The door opened and Kou walked in.
"Kou be a dear and hold him." Skuld said with out turning around.
"Yes ma'am." Said Kou, then he grabbed Raziel and held him to the table.
"Kou what the hell are you doing?"
"Look I do stuff like this so Lady Skuld doesn't tell Anata's father about what we've done!" Kou said back. "Now don't move."
Back in the Son of Urd Universe, Anata and Fiona was finally in the heavens. Anata still not all that happy about the method her sister used to get her up out of bed.
"So what's this thing that's going on that you HAD to get me up?"
Fiona didn't say anything all she did was pushing open the doors to the main lobby of Yggdrasil.
"About time you two get here." Peorth said as she floated down to from the control level. "Ex get the test ready!"
"Just what the hell is going on here?" Anata asked.
"Didn't she tell you?" Peorth asked, looking at the two sisters.
Anata looked over at Fiona then at Peorth. "No, tell me did you find a way to get me back?"
"We think but we need to take a look at one big thing." Peorth said.
"What's that?" Anata asked getting a worried look.
"We need you to go to your reactors and put out as much power you can with out blowing them up. We think that your power may be the key to getting you back." Peorth said.
"Really... see I told you that something big was going on up here." Fiona said cheerfully. "Come on sis lets go!"
Taking Anata's hand, Fiona led Anata down in to the depths of Yggdrasil.
Peorth then went back up to the control level and sat back down at her chair. Ex looked over at her. "What's wrong with Anata, she didn't seem too happy."
"No I guess not... but I'm hopping that this test will help us with getting her back to her own universe and getting Raziel back." Peorth said.
"No kidding the sooner we get Raziel back the sooner Urd will leave us alone... She's really starting to scare me." Ere added.
Ex looked over to see Urd hanging over some young god....
"What are you doing?" The young god asked.
"Nothing!" Urd quickly replied hiding a huge feather behind her back.
The young god started to sweat.
A couple minutes later, Fiona and Anata found them self's at the doors that lead to Anata's reactors.
"So they're behind this door?" Fiona asked.
Anata shrugged her shoulders. "I guess so."
"What's wrong? Why don't you open the doors, they're belong to you after all." Fiona said.
"I've only seen them once before, the room just puts out a strange vibe.... It's hard to explain." Anata said, and then she took in a deep breath and pushed the doors open.
Fiona looked up in surprise. The four great reactors towered above them. "Wow.... These are the reactors?" she asked.
"Yeah these are it, hooray....."
"What's wrong?" Fiona asked again.
"I'm just trying to not get my hopes up." Anata replied, but just before Fiona could say anything Peorth came over the PA system.
"Now Anata if you can, use what ever power you can to get the readings I need." Said Peorth.
Closing her eyes, Anata started to focus. As she did the four great reactors started to spin faster and their humming became louder.
"That's good just output more power." Peorth incurraged.
Just as Anata was about to do that several alarms went off. She stopped what she was doing but the alarms still kept on going. "What's going on now?!" Fiona shouted over the alarms.
Up in the control room, Peorth and the other control room goddess frantically tried to find any answers. "Give us ten seconds! We're looking for the problem!" Peorth replied then she went over to Chrono's side. "Speak to me Chrono."
Typing as fast as she can, Chrono shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know ma'am, I can't find anything."
"Fiona, Anata we're still looking!"
In the reactor room, Fiona and Anata looked around the room sparks and lightning where flying all over the room. "Some answers will be nice!"
"Is this meant to happen?!" Fiona cried.
"No! That is I don't think so!" Anata replied. Just then they saw the source of their problems, there hopping across the floor was the dreaded eight legged, bunny eared bug.
"Damn it Peorth it's a BUG!" Anata yelled. Looking over to where the bug was, Fiona cough just a glimpse. Then she ran over to a case that looked like a fire extinguisher case, but instead of an extinguisher, there were two hammers. Breaking the glass, Fiona reached in and took the two hammers and tossed one to Anata. catching it, the two sisters nodded at each other. Then they watched as the bug hop around one of the reactors.
"You go around the left side and I'll take the right." Fiona said.
Going around to the sides they where going to take the sisters met on the other side of the reactor to only find nothing.
"I don't get it? Where'd it go?" Fiona whispered.
Just as Anata was about to give an idea, the bug jumped out from the shadows on top of Fiona's head making her scream then on to one of the reactors. Making a huge spark form striking both sisters. Then in a flash of light they where gone.
In the control room Chrono and Peorth stood there looking at a video screen then at each other. "Oh Damn it Belldandy is going to kill us!" Peorth screamed. "What happened?!"
"I don't know! They're just gone!" Chrono replied.
"But Anata's reactors are still transmitting her power, so they might still be alive." Ex added.
"Ma'am we can use that transition and find them." Ere said.
"Get on it; I'll try to talk to Belldandy... oh damn it this is going to suck." Peorth said.
In the Goddess of the earth universe, Raziel was sill being held to the table by Kou; under Skuld's orders.
"Oh god.. No more! I can't take it any longer!" Raziel cried. "Please Kou let me go!"
"Sorry my friend, I can't do that. Like you Lady Skuld knows my dirty little secret." Kou replied. "Please stop squirming."
"That's right Raziel, Urd and I know about Kou and Anata's little secret and as sick as it may seem we hold that over them." Skuld added as she typed some more commands on a computer.
Stopping his struggling, Raziel looked back at Kou. "Did they read about it?"
Kou then hung his head and let out a heavy sigh. "Anata and I only wish.... Your mother walked in on us, and then she told Lady Skuld."
"That's right and if they want our silence they do what we say....Kou be a sweetie and flip that switch there to your right for my particle accelerator." Skuld ordered.
"Yes ma'am.... "
"Now Raziel just stay vary still I don't want to shoot this beam in your eyes..... Or any other spot in matter of fact." Said Skuld.
"No! Wait Aunt Skuld I don't think this is needed." Raziel pleaded.
"I have to agree with Raziel on this one. I mean a particle accelerator, is that really needed?" Kou asked, trying to help out Raziel.
"Quiet you! You want Keiichi to know?"
"Raziel don't move!" Kou ordered and tightening his hold on Raziel.
"What! No!!!!"
Just then several alarms sounded making Raziel, Kou and Skuld started to look around.
"Oh god your lab is going to kill us!" Raziel cried.
"No it's not this sort of thing happens all the time." Skuld said as she pulled a hammer what seemed to be from out of no where. And gave a computer case and clobbered it as hard as she could. It seemed to fix the problem, but them....
"Warning system over load! Core melts down in fifteen seconds!" Skuld's computer announced.
"Oh no that's not good." Said Skuld as she quickly started to go about the lab looking for a way to fix the problem.
Thinking that it was a good idea let his friend go. Kou let Raziel go just in time to see a laser that was sitting on a desk fire, missing Kou and Raziel by inches. The two looked at each other and dropped to the ground.
"Lady Skuld I think it's time you stopped!" Kou yelled.
"No kidding! I'm trying too!"
Just then another beam shot out from the laser bouncing off of a mirror, then going in to a crystal making the beam spread out, hitting Raziel and Kou making them vanish. The just as fast as everything started, it was over leaving Skuld sitting there at her computer with a worried look.
"Oh no! Belldandy and Urd are going to kill me!!" Skuld cried, but quickly stopped and looked around making sure that no one else was around. "Must cover everything up...."
Reaching over to the computer, Skuld pressed a button that made the whole hard drive eject. Taking the drive she placed it on the desk she pulled out a magnet and placed it over the hard drive, erasing all the data then she pulled out her hammer again and smashed the drive.
Else where, in a forest, Fiona came too looking up at a blue sunny sky. Sitting up slowly, Fiona grabbed her head in a head rush she let her self fall back to the ground to look back up at the blue sky. For a minute or two she watched a cloud drift by before she looked over to her right to see Anata sitting against a tree, still out cold.
'My head hurts....' Fiona thought to her self. 'I wonder is Anata is alright.... She looks okay.'
Just then Anata let out a loud moan. "Ah my head.... Fiona are you okay......"
"I'm fine I guess I'm a little dizzy." Fiona replied. "What about you?"
"I'm a little dizzy too, and nothings broken or was broken again...." Replied Anata then she tried to get up but soon got a head rush and sat back against the tree.
"Head rush?" Fiona asked.
"Yep.... Give me a minute."
"I need about minute or two my self too."
A couple hundred yards away, Raziel found him self looking up at a blue sky. 'After looking up at the sky for a couple minutes it's the bluest I've seen.' Raziel thought to him self. Then he looked over to see Kou sitting on a tree stump looking like he was in deep thought.
"Are you feeling alright Raziel?" Kou asked.
"I guess....." replied Raziel, and then he tried to get up from the ground.
"I wouldn't do that......" Kou said but it was to late....
THUD!
"Head rush?" Kou asked.
"Give me a minute." Raziel grumbeled. "How long was I out?"
"From what I can tell you've been out the whole fifteen minutes I've been sitting here. Plus how ever long we where out before that." Kou replied.
"Any ideas where we are?"
Kou shrugged his shoulders. "When I had it in me, before I became too dizzy to do it. I took a peek over the tree tops. We're about three maybe four miles from a city to our east."
"So besides that you have no idea?" Raziel asked.
"No clue. But one thing is different. We're on earth but something is a little off."
Closing his eyes, Raziel forced him self to sit up. Then he thought about it. "You know you're right something is a little off. I can't quite place it but something is just not sitting right."
"Come on I think we should get started for that city before it starts to get dark." Kou said getting up off the tree stump, and then he walked over to Raziel and offered his hand to help his friend up.
Smiling, Raziel took it and was helped to his feet. Brushing him self off he looked at Kou. "East?"
Kou pointed to his right. "This way."
"Right, I knew that."
Meanwhile not too far from Raziel and Kou, Fiona and Anata trigged the forest.
"It's hot!" Anata whined.
"I know...."
"And it's muggy!"
"I know...."
"And we're lost! We have no food, no water and no shelter!"
Fiona snapped. Turning around, Anata saw a furry that was in her sister's eyes that she's never seen before. "I know we have it bad! I know we're lost, have no food no water and no shielter!" Yelled Fiona. "And yes I know it's hot! I know it's muggy! Just look the humidity it's messing up my hair!"
"Look I know it's bad! Look at mine!" Anata screamed back. "But after all the shit I've been through I have every right to whine about this! Remember two broken ribs on cracked. And bruses on my back, and the hell I went through with that stupid Empress and before that the Shadow!" Anata shouted. "Oh yeah I'm not even in the right God Damned Universe and on top of that I really miss my boyfriend!"
"It still give you no right to whine about this! Yes it's bad, boo hook get over it!"
"Telling me to get over it!" Anata screamed, some of her power showing as sparks.
"How dare you flux your power at me!" Fiona yelled back, she then started to form her powers to change in to her Evangelion form. But just before she can transform a giant red armored Boot came down through the trees missing the sisters by feet.
"Run for it!" Anata screamed.
"I'm running! I'm running!" Fiona yelled as she darted to what she thought would be safe. But the first red boot lifted back up in to the air and another came down, Fiona had just enough time to dart to her left. Then the two sisters met back up. But just as a set of huge red boots came down a purple and green came down, making the sisters skid to a stop as the foot came down. Then it too lifted back up in to the air. But was replaced by another purple and green armored boot came down. Seeing it just in time Fiona grabbed Anata and pulled her back before it could crush her. Then the sisters watched as a set of blue armored boots passed by just a couple feet away. Then just as fast as it started it was over.
Fiona and Anata looked over at each other. "I'm sorry!" Fiona cried then she gave her sister a hug.
"I.... I sorry too Sis!" Anata cried and hugged her sister. Then the two sisters fell to the ground and had a good cry.
"Now it's really bad we've been shrunk and Peorth sent us to Earth less then an inch tall for a punishment!" Fiona said then she cried more and even harder.
"She's sent us in to some 1960's crappy sci-fi TV show! We're screwed!" Anata cried then she hugged on to her sister and cried even harder.
Not too far away, Kou and Raziel ran to the source of two girls screaming to offer any form a asstance. After all it's the right thing to do for two Gentlegods... er um.. Gentlemen to do.
Running with wend like swiftness, Kou looked back for a second to see Raziel trying to keep up.
"The screams came from this way Raziel!"
"I know..... Can you slow down I..... I can t keep up!" Raziel said in between breaths.
Kou just pressed on to the source of the screams, as he ran he saw a clearing in the forest. As he came up on that clearing he noticed the huge hole in the ground and skidded to a stop. But still coming up behind his was Raziel, who didn't notice that Kou stopped and slammed in to Kou. Making his friend fall face first in to the hole.
One the other side of the huge foot print, Anata and Fiona waited for the dust to clear. As it did, they could see two mail figures slowly appear. Then....
"Damn it....."
Looking down Anata watched as HER Kou slowly lifted his head up, then they made eye contact.
"Kou?" Anata muttered.
"A...Anata...." Kou whispered.
Fast forward ten minutes......
Sitting on a fallen tree Fiona filled Raziel in on the three giants and what's been going on the past month.
"...And that's what's going on now." Fiona said finishing about the latest. "What about you Raziel?"
"Well I have a girlfriend; she's a friend of Anata's." Raziel looked over in to the huge foot print. "They're still making out."
Fiona looked over to see for her self, and yep sure enough Anata and Kou where still going at it. "So how long has it been?" Fiona asked, looking back over at Raziel.
Looking at his watch and shaking his wrist, he shrugged his shoulders. "My watch is dead... About ten minuets or so."
Getting off the fallen tree they where sitting on, Fiona walked over the foot prints edge. "Come on you two, I thought Raziel said there was a city near here! Don't you think we should start heading there before it gets dark?"
Meanwhile the three huge robots walked on heading to a mountain side. in side the red one, a girl with matching red hear looked clearly mad about something.
"Stupid building! That was a stupid place to build the thing!" She yelled.
Just then a video screen appeared to the girls right with an image of a purple haired woman, in her late twenties maybe her early thirties. "That building was your rifles ammo, Asuka you just blew up five hundred rounds of 120mm machine rounds!"
"I didn't need them, and besides if the angle hadn't gotten in front of the building it wouldn't have happened." Asuka said, "It's the angles doing."
"That doesn't matter Asuka, it was destroyed by your own weapon." the Woman said. "I'll need to think of some punishment for you."
"Yes.... Ma'am....."Asuka said with a heavy sigh, then the screen went blink for a second and an image of a your boy about Asuka's age came on the same screen.
"What do you want?" Asuka asked harshly.
"Don't worry Asuka I'm sure she'll just make you eat her cooking." The boy said trying to smile. But just then the same woman with the purple hair came back on a second screen, not looking too happy.
"What was that Shinji? You can join her, the both of you get to clean my car when you get done with debriefing and changing out of your plug suits." Misato said. "Rei?"
Then another screen came on in Asuka's cockpit with an image of another girl but this one had light pail skin and blue hair with red eyes. "Yes major?" The second girl asked, replying to Misato.
"Great job out there." Misato praised.
"Thank you major." Rei said with a blank look, then the screen with her image vanished then fallowed the screen with Misato. Shinji looked at Asuka through the video screen forcing a smile again.
"Well think of this way Asuka, at least it's not her cooking." Shinji said with a small voice.
"SHUT UP STOOGE!" Asuka screamed, making Shinji cringe. "If you hadn't opened your stupid mouth this might not have happened." Then in side Shinji's robot the video screen with Asuka's angry face on it went blank.
Sitting there in his cockpit, Shinji shook his head and let out a heavy sigh.
A couple hours later, Kou, Raziel, Fiona and Anata finally made it out of the forest and were standing at the cities' edge.
"About time....." Fiona said.
"No kidding, I'm beat, and hungry and thirsty." Anata whined.
Kou scanned the store fronts finding a little out door diner. "We should rest some, and I am a little tired my self as well."
So the four walked over to some a table and waited for a minute or two then a weightier came to their table.
"What can I got you four?" he asked.
Then Anata, Raziel and Fiona looked over at Kou like they where asking him something siclently.
"Water for now please." Kou replied, then the weightier handed everyone a menu.
"Look they use the Yen." Anata whispered to everyone. "That's good news."
Raziel nodded. "No kidding now we just need to find a place to stay while we're here."
"But that might be a while... we might need to get jobs." Fiona added.
"Okay how much do we all have together?" Kou asked. "I have one credit card that more then likely no good here as well a check card, and some 100,000 yen cash."
Raziel reached into his pockets. "I've got that credit card that dad gave me so I won't need to go through the pain of getting cloths with Mom. So that's no good here too, and 45....50..... 60.....70,000 yen."
Fiona and Anata looked at each other then emptied out their pockets. "I've got 85,000 here." Fiona proclaimed.
"I have 60,000." Anata said. "So that gives us a total of 315,000 to work with..... Is that even enough to get a hotel?"
"Think long turm Anata....." Kou said then he stopped a passing weightier. "Excuse me sir, what is the cheapest apartments here; you see we're new here in Tokyo-3 and we don't know if we're going to stay here long or not." Kou explained.
The weightier thought for a moment. "Well there are the apartments that are on the Far East side of the city, near the indrestral centers."
"How much is it about?" Kou asked again looking for more information.
"I think their running about 230,000 a month, but....." the weightier was cut off by Kou.
"Thank you kind sir." Kou said as he and the others got up from the table.
Some minutes later.....
"This is just about the crappiest apartments I've ever seen!" Anata shouted as they looked at a delapatated, gray, apartment complex with others just like the one they where looking at that seemed to stretch on for ever.
"It's the best we can do." Kou remarked. "... But yes I too have seen better."
"You've got to be kidding." Raziel muttered.
"Goodness...." Fiona said.
Letting out a heavy sigh, Kou turned to everyone else. "Wait here, I'm going to see if there are any apartments available."
Meanwhile deep with in the NERV underground parking complex.....
"I want every inch of that car cleaned in side and out. Ritsuko all of a sudden had the need to smoke in my car and dropped some ash. Don't for get to get the door jams and to armorall the dash!" Misato commanded her Pilots and room mates. "I want to see my self besides using the mirrors!"
"You're kidding right! That's going to take hours!" Asuka whined.
"Yeah and I still have homework and class work I missed!" Shinji added.
"Do I look like I'm kidding?" Misato asked.
"No ma'am...." Both Shinji and Asuka said in unison.
"I need to do some paper work; I'll be back later to check up on you two." Misato said as she walked over to the stairs and left the two teens there with a hose and two buckets and each had a sponge.
Looking at the sponge she had in her hand, Asuka had an evil thought. She took the sponge and dunked it in to the bucket of cold water and threw the water soaked sponge at Shinji.
"What was that for?!" Shinji yelled.
"This is your....."
"Don't even tell me I got you in to this!" Shinji shouted. "I wasn't the one that blew up that building!"
"Shut up stupid!"
Back at the apartments Kou, Raziel, Anata and Fiona stood at the door to their own place for how ever long their stuck there. "I thought that place was a dump from the outside, but it's even more of a dump in side." Fiona said.
"It looks like a flop house." Raziel stated. "You know like those ones you see on old cop TV shows."
"It's the best we can do with our limited funds." Kou reminded everyone.
"That's right.... What about this?" Anata said. "We're going to need food, so why don't Kou and I go and look in to that, while Fiona and Raziel look in to cleaning this place up."
"That's a great idea sis. Come on Raziel lets get to work." Fiona said.
Anata and Kou walked back to the door, reaching for the doorknob the knob fell off just as Kou touched it. He slowly looked back at everyone. "I'll get a new one of those too."
Then he and Anata stepped out of the falling apart apartment.
"I'll start on the kitchen and you get the bathroom." Fiona said as she started to search the kitchen looking for anything that previous occupants may have left behind. Raziel shrugged his shoulders and walked in to the bathroom and instantly cringed. A little bit carouses, Raziel went over to the toilet and left the lid.
In the Kitchen Fiona heard something fall in the bathroom and took her head out form the fridge. "You okay Raziel?"
In the bathroom had his nose plugged and looked vary sick? "Fiona trust me; if you need to use the bathroom go to a store." Raziel said back.
Not understanding what Raziel was getting at, Fiona walked over in to the bathroom to see Raziel looking like he was about to get sick. "What? What are you talking about?" she asked.
"Fiona just trust me when I saw that it's best that we get some bathroom cleaning stuff, but till then go to a store near by." Raziel replied.
"It can't be that bad." Fiona said as she went over to the toilet, just as she was about to left the led, Raziel quickly closed it before she can open it.
"Don't look, what ever you do just don't look inside." Raziel warned.
"Grow up Raziel, it comes out of everyone, it's only natural." Fiona said just as she moved Raziel's hand out of the way....
Outside, Anata and Kou just got done with an other needed make out session, when they heard a shrill scream coming from the other end of the hall of apartments. They looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders and kept on walking on to the stairs.
"Okay... So what are we looking for?" Anata asked.
"Three things. First we're looking for food. The second is job applications, and the third is a way to gather information." Kou replied. "Something just isn't adding up here, I mean it's 2020, and everything is all wrong. No AI cars, no internet terminals, nothing of the sort. When Raziel and I woke up we both felt a strange feeling, something like dizziness; it's hard to explain."
"You know Fiona and I felt the same thing, sure we knew that we where on earth, but something else was way out of place." Anata said. "But one things fir sure, I still have access to my reactors."
"How do you know?" Kou asked looking over at his love.
"Well Just before those huge monster things just about crushed us, Fiona and I where having a fight. You know one of those sisterly fights like my Aunt Urd and Auntie Skuld have. I surged my powers and I didn't pass out like when I first came to Fiona and Raziel's universe."
"You know this for sure?" Kou asked. "Use some of your powers on that discarded can over there." Kou said pointing to an empty pop can that was on the ground no less then a foot from a trash can.
Looking over at the pop can, Anata squinted her eyes and a small blue sphere formed around the peace of trash, then it lifted up off the ground and floated above the trash can's opening. Then Anata brought her hand up, with her hand opened, then quickly closing her hand, the blue sphere shrunk around the pop can, crushing it in to a small ball of aluminum.
"See?" Anata said looked back at Kou. "We better get going, I'm a little hungry."
Just before they hit the stairs they saw a girl with light blue hair walk on to the same floor they where on, Anata being Anata went up to introduce her self.
"Hi I'm Anata Morisato, and this is my boyfriend. You live here too?" Anata asked.
The blue haired girl looked at the couple for a moment before answering. "I live just three more apartments down." The girl replied.
"Really? So you live at the one that says 'Ayanami' above the door?" Anata asked. "So what's your name?"
"Rei Ayanami." Rei replied.
"Well it's vary nice to meet you, Miss, Rei Ayanami." Kou said. "Maybe you can answer something for us. We are young couple that just got our own place, but Anata here still has school, do you know where a school can be located?" Kou asked.
Anata gave Kou a quick glair, just as Rei answered. "There is a school in distrect 14 of this city. Would you like the address?" Rei asked.
"Yes please, I just got out of school my self and I want my love here to have the same chance I had." Kou replied Still getting a death glair from Anata.
As Rei took off her back pack, Anata looked over at Rei. "One moment I need to talk to my boyfriend while you write that address down." Anata then grabbed on to Kou's shoulders and dragged him off to the side. "Kou! Just what the hell do you think you're doing?!" Anata whispered loudly.
"We need information, and this is the best way I can come up with." Kou whispered back just in time of Rei getting down with the address.
"Here contact this school." Rei said handing a peace of paper to Kou.
"Again thank you Miss. Ayanami, and it was vary nice to meet you."
Just at that vary same time, deep with in a deep underground base a tech with short black hair. Scratched her head and let out a heavy sigh. "I don't get it... none of this is making any since." The tech said to her self.
Another Tech looked over from his own work and tipped his glasses up. "What's wrong Maya?" He asked.
Looking over at her friend she let out another sigh. "I don't get this Hyuga. I got this strange data about two hours ago and then again just now, but both several miles away from each other... I can't make heads or tails of it. It almost looks like a blue pattern, but before the computers can get a full reading on it, the source vanishes."
Hyuga looked over the data himself and scratched his head too. "Scanner glitch?" He asked.
Maya shook her head no. "I checked that already. And I recalibrated the scanners twice, everything checks out in status green." She replied. "Maybe I should have Dr. Akagi look at them."
"Do what you think is best."
Maya shook her head and pressed a button on her computer. "Dr. Akagi I have some data you should look at."
"I'll be down in a moment Maya." A voice said over her computer work stations speakers.
Taking a quick sip of her coffee, Maya had just enough time before Dr. Akagi was there at her work station. The doctor in her early thirty, maybe her late twenty... really depending who you ask, she has short blond hair, glasses and a mole on her cheek that looks like a tear.
"What's this data you wanted me to look at?" The doctor asked as she pulled out a pack of cigarettes.
"Here ma'am, I think it's better if you look at it, instead of me trying to explain it." Maya replied, and then she got up out of her chair so the doctor can have a seat.
Sitting down Dr. Akagi started to read over the readings. Then she looked back up at Maya. "Did you check the system?"
"Yes ma'am, twice."
The doctor looked back over at the computer screen again as she let her cigarette. Inhaling deeply, the good doctor picked up a near by phone.
At a different apartment complex, Rei's other two fellow pilots slowly came in to their apartment with commanding officer and parental unit, Misato.
"You two did a great job at detailing my car." Misato said as she went on to the kitchen then to the fridge, opening it there were fifty cans of beer. Taking one Misato cracked it open and chugged half of the can with ease.
Asuka then flopped on the couch and turned on the TV, just as Shinji went in to the kitchen and started to get something ready for dinner. Just then the phone started to ring.... Then.....
"Shinji can you get that!" both women of the apartment called out to the only male occupant. Letting out a heavy sigh, Shinji walked over to the phone and answered it.
"Yes hello?" Shinji said in to the phone. "Oh hello Ritsuko, yes she's here one moment."
Shinji looked over at Misato who was already getting started on her second can of beer for the night. "Umm Misato, Ritsuko's on the phone she wants to talk to you."
Getting up from the kitchen table, Misato went over to the phone and took it from Shinji. "Thanks Shinji, Hi Ritsuko yeah I've already started with the boozing..... I know, I know, what can I do for you?"
Shinji went back to started dinner as he tried to listen in on the phone call.
"Sure I guess I can be ready, you think it would be alright to bring the kids?" Misato asked taking another sip of beer... okay gulp of beer. "Great we're be ready in about half hour or so. Okay bye bye." Misato said as she handed the phone back to Shinji so he could hang it up. "Say Shinji, Asuka you two up for a after noon hike?" Misato asked. "You know get back to nature?"
"No thanks!" Asuka replied from the living room.
"What about you Shinji?" Misato asked leaning over letting Shinji get a good view of her cleavage.
"Su...Sure Misato." Shinji replied, being a little afraid of what would happen if he rejected her.
"Great! Now get some something on a bit more comfortable and some good boots." Misato said. "Ritsuko is going to be here in about an half hour."
About forty minutes later back across town, Kou and a not so happy Anata returned back to their tempary apartment.
"We're back!" Kou called out.
".... What's wrong with her?" Raziel asked.
"I'll tell you what's wrong, Kou here is sending me and Fiona to school here just to gather info and to top it off we're in the past!" Anata yelled. "Not only are we in a different universe, we're six years in the past!"
"What?!" Fiona and Raziel both screamed in unison.
Kou only shook his head. "It's true. We found out when we went to the corner store to get food and job applications from some local businesses. We passed a news paper vender." Kou replied handing the news paper to Fiona and Raziel. "So we can not interfere with anything that happens here in the past, because it will affect the future, maybe even ours."
"Kou but I thought we're in a different universe too, so how can it interfere with our present? Or future, or... What ever this is to confusing." Raziel said trailing off getting lost in his own question.
"The best way I could put it for Anata is that the past, even thought it's in a different universe may intersect with our own universes." Kou said trying his best. "That's the best way I can put it with out going in to great detail."
"But haven't we already messed around with this universe's event just by being here?" Fiona asked. "I mean who's to say that there wasn't someone else who was meant for this crummy apartment?"
"That's the thing, Who's to say. So we are not to interfere with any major event, no matter how much we can help or prevent loss of life." Kou said.
"Well anyways on that note I need to use the bathroom." Anata said a she walked to the bathroom, and closed the door behind her. Just as the sound of the door locking was heard by Fiona and Raziel, they looked at each other and ran to the bathroom door.
"No! Don't open!!!"
IT was too late.
EEEEEKKKKKKK!!!!!!!
Out in the forest, Dr. Akagi, Misato and Shinji hiked through the forest.
"What is it we're looking for?" Misato asked.
"Anything out of the ordinary." Ritsuko replied with out looking back. "Well this is the spot.... I don't see a thing." The doctor said as she sat there on the ground and took off her backpack that had a laptop in it. She started to type, as Misato looked around with Shinji.
"I don't get it....."
"Say Ritsuko what would you consider to be out of place?" Misato asked as she moved some brush out of the way.
"Anything that you wouldn't find in a middle of a forest, why?" Ritsuko asked with out looking up from the laptop.
Looking around as well, Shinji moved some tall grass around a found a small peace of metal, that looked just like a small rod, wanting a closer look Shinji picked it up. Just as his hand touched the peace of metal, small sparks shot out from the metal and it unfolded in to a cross looking device with a blue orb at the intercepting point.
"What the Hell!" Shinji cried as he jumped back.
Running over to Shinji, Ritsuko and Misato found the cross looking device and looked over at Shinji.
"What is it?" They asked the boy.
"I don't know. It was a rod then when I touched it, it did that." Shinji replied.
Misato then looked over and saw foot prints. "Well what ever it is there's two of them. Look." Misato said pointing at two sets of foot prints.
"We better get this to a NERV lab." Ritsuko said as she reached for the cross, but just as she touched it she was dealt a shock that sent her back with a hurt hand.
"Damn it... Shinji did it do that to you?" She asked as she rubbed her numb hand.
Shinji shook his head. "No all it did was unfold in to that cross." He replied.
"Shinji why don't you carry it." Misato said.
Looking at the cross, Shinji picked it up and nothing happened. Misato and Ritsuko looked at each other.
"Come on we better get back to the can and get that thing to a lab." Ritsuko said.
As they walked back to the car, Misato looked over at Ritsuko. "Do you think it's a new type of angle?"
"I don't know, but if there's more then one and they're human size we're in trouble." Ritsuko Replied.
