Shinji let out a scream as large object descended from the sky, landing flat on Shinji. The two figures rolled out of Shinji's hiding spot umongst various wreckage in the GeoFront, both rolling to a stop in front of Asuka.
Asuka: You idiot, what are you up to now?...who's your friend?
Asuka bent down and helped up Shinji, who then turned and looked at what had fallen ontop of him. His jaw dropped as a scaled raptor dinosaur let out a light growling noise and flipping itself onto it's feet and shaking it's head around, knocking it's hair back into place.
Asuka: What the...there's something familiar about this lizard.
Shinji: A relative of yours?
Asuka punched Shinji in the back of the head, causing him to go rolling further down the junk heap. The raptor looked around and let out a light yelp. Asuka walked over and poked it's head, and looked at the hair that hung over it's eyes slightly.
Asuka: Why does this thing have your hair style, Shinji?
Shinji sat up and looked over at the Raptor,and sure enough, the hair sitting on it's head resembled Shinji's, as did the white shirt it was wearing. Even stranger was the fact it wasn't attacking either of them.
Shinji: Um...hi?
Raptor: Rar rar, rarrar.
Asuka: I think he said, "Hello, my name is Raptor-Shinji."
Shinji blinked in confusion and astonishment. He looked at Asuka, then at the Raptor, then back at Asuka.
Shinji: How do you know what it's saying?
Asuka: I just have an ear for that kind of thing.
Shinji: What, dinosaurs in general, or horrid beasts?
Asuka was about to punch Shinji again when Raptor-Shinji tugged on her bandaged arm. Asuka walked over to it.
Asuka: Yes?
Raptor-Shinji: Rar rar.
Asuka: A tyranosaurus with a beard and glasses you say? What's it's name?
Raptor-Shinji: Rararar.
Asuka: Tyranno-Gendo? Why do you and the big dino have the same name as Shinji and his father?
Raptor-Shinji: ahem Rarrar rar raaaaaar rarrr rar. Rarrr rar rrar. Rarrararar. Rar rar rar. Rar. Raaaaaaaar. ERAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRR! Rar rar. Rar.
Shinji: What'd he say this time?
Asuka: He said "The best I can figure is, Tyranno-Gendo and myself are part of some repeating cycle. We were responsible for the event known as the 'First Impact.'"
Raptor-Shinji: Rar rar.
Asuka: He also said "There was also this evil female raptor, who I guess is remniscent of your scary friend here."..HEY!
Raptor-shinji: Rar har har.
Asuka went to punch Raptor-Shinji in the back of the head, but decided against when Raptor-Shinji gave her a very toothy grin. She coughed and went to punch Shinji again, only to trip and land face first into a pile of debris.
Shinji: Hm. Raptor-Shinji is a bit long isn't it?
Raptor-Shinji: Rar rar.
Asuka: He says "Not really."
Shinji:...Well, can we call you Rinji?
Raptor-Shinji: Rar.
Asuka: He says "I'll be Shinji, you be Rinji."
Shinji: But I'm Shinji!
Raptor-Shinji: Rar.
Asuka: He says "Fine, I'll be Rinji, but you owe me a meal."
Shinji gulped and looked around for something that could suffice for a Raptor's meal. His eyes darted around the wreckage around the three. There were the two Stone series EVAs suspended in the air, twisted iron poles, and of course...
Shinji: groan...
Several minutes later the Raptor was content as it ate the last of it's meal, and Asuka had had a snack along with Rinji. Shinji was still nauseas from the last meal. After Asuka finished her sandwhich, which composed of the only source of food in the entire area, and dirt for bread, she leaned back on a broken slab of cement.
Asuka: So, tell me about the First Impact.
Shinji: Will you translate later?
Asuka: No.
Shinji: Oh come on!
Asuka: Fine, idiot.
Rinji: Rar.
Asuka: What do you mean I'm an angry bitch!
Rinji: Rar har har.
Asuka: Anyways...
Rinji: Rar rar rar. Rar rar. Raaaaaaar rar rar...
It went on like that for awhile, with Asuka having to write down what Rinji was saying, using Shinji's blood as ink and a jagged piece of metal as a pen. After Rinji finished, Asuka began to read it in English.
Asuka: "Around 65 million years ago, we had developed something called the 'Dinosaur Instrumentality Project', where the dinosaurs would evolve into an abstract state of existence rather than a physical one. We thought we could do it by bringing a comet out of orbit, and at the moment of impact, we would trigger the Instrumentality powered by the kinetic energy of the comet. It back fired and we ended up turning everyone into fossils instead. I survived due to backing out of the Instrumentality at the last moment, and Tyranno-Gendo came with me, because he's a no-good moocher."
Shinji: I see.
Rinji: Rar.
Shinji: I did not blow it!
Asuka: You can understand him too now?
Shinji: Wait, what'd he say?

The Alien Commander had sent the remnants of EVA 01 to be analyzed by the science department of the Alien Empire he belonged to, even though it only consisted of three people, and therefore took an obscene amount of time to complete. After they had retro-engineered the technology to develop more EVAs, a group formed calling themselves EEL, short for Electric Eagles Locally, they still don't understand why they chose it. After they had completed the EVAs, the angels began appearing and attacking, thus triggering the second impact in their society, the first being when someone spilled a can of mayonaise on a mass driver that wiped out half of their civilization. After the angels were defeated, the Alien helmsman from before was chosen for the Alien Instrumentality Project, and promptly ended his civilization by chickening out at the last second.

As Asuka was contemplating ways to boss around Raptor-Shinji, or Rinji,
a loud whistling noise was heard as a small object appeared above the
group. Shinji looked up in horror as a yellow skinned man with
dread-lock like tendrils flowing from his scalp crashed into him.
