Whoop...yeah...I appreciate your reviews...I've gotten valuable input on how much I suck...but then again, you guys saw this coming, right? I mean, I did blatantly break one of the golden rules I stated at the beginning of the story...at least I'm not pairing the Sixth off...Or am I?! Mwahahaha! Maybe I'll make a fanfic that breaks every single rule of mine simultaneously...but that's for another time...
My next story will either be that or the most utterly depressing, angst and cliché-ridden bloated corpse of a fanfic ever made in the history of man. I have really cool plan for my next fanfic, but I guess I ought to focus on making Fate of Destruction...less sucky.
Dudes...sometimes I just like reverting back into a reader status...these fanfics are so cool...I just hope I'm not making crappy stories with tons of borrowed ideas from all the fanfics I've read....hint hint... and you've noticed Rei is nonexistent...No, this isn't because of my S/A bias...it's because of my stupidity...but she's "gone missing"...I'll figure something out....

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Episode 26
A Betrayal of Trust
Tokyo 3, Japan
The blue sports car speeded maniacally through the streets, knocking man a pedestrian out of the way.
Asuka grumbled as the occupants tried to keep their stomach contents in their stomachs.
"Why do we need the Sixth? He doesn't even have an Eva!"
Misato glanced at the Second Child and then spoke.
"Well, the First Child has gone missing...and the Commander hasn't even begun a search".
Shinji looked up, startled.
Ayanami? And Father....
"Stupid Wondergirl, leaving right when we need her..."
Misato glanced back again as the car entered the lift down to the Geofront.
"Naota will pilot Unit 00".
"But what about that stupid Fifth Child? And he hasn't even had any synch tests with it!"
Katsuragi just stared forward once more seemingly hesitant as she muttering in a barely audible tone.
"Commander's orders...."
Ayanami...Kawuro...what are you doing to them father?
Unknown
A group of gray obelisks stood in the darkness, labeled with numbers and different information. Voices could be heard playing off the walls in the cold, damp darkness.
"Now we must attend to the most important matter at hand"
"The NERV organization, established to execute the wishes of SEELE"
"It was enacted to make our scenario a reality".
"Yes, yet now a single zealous individual is now dominating it".
"We must wrench it back into our own dominion".
"It is time"
"Time to return NERV and the Eva series to their proper role"
"Ikari, you shall play the pariah for crossing SEELE".
Tokyo 3, Japan
NERV Headquarters, Evangelion Storage Facility
Their intended pariah stood in front of the large violet monstrosity known as Unit 01, staring intently at it.
"I'm afraid there isn't much time left for accomplishing our goal".
Gendo paused, staring at the Evangelion he was conversing with.
"However the Lance has been eliminated, it would have impeded our processes, yet it is currently unsalvageable".
The Commander stared intently at Unit 01's pale white eyes.
"The final angel known as Tabris has come, and is already enacting the scenario. With its destruction our wishes shall be born soon"
Gendo paused once more, his cold chiseled face revealing an emotion that seemed to convey great impatience and a yearning for something.
He whispered finally before he left.
"Please have patience...Yui..."
Tokyo 3, Japan
A blue-haired girl lay against an old futon, letting loose a sneeze that shattered the calm surrounding her, and the lack of expression on her face.
Her crimson eyes stared intently at the wall in front of her.
Why am I here?
Why was I brought here?
Why am I still alive?
For what purpose?
For whose purpose?
Tokyo 3, Japan
NERV Headquarters, Control Room
Misato and the three Children rushed in just as Sub-Commander Fuyutsuki did, clearly out of breath. It was chaos in the control room as technicians and operators dashed into their positions.
Fuyutsuki strode into it, speaking calmly.
"Put Shinji in Unit 01 and have the Sixth Child get into Unit 00"
Asuka slumped against the wall, seething with rage. This was her toy, her robot, and she couldn't pilot it, let alone do anything when someone had stolen it.
Katsuragi approached Makoto quickly.
"What is the situation?"
"Eva Unit 02 has activated!"
"That's impossible! Asuka's right here!"
"What's wrong with my Eva?!"
"Who the hell is piloting it?", Misato shouted quickly.
Maya spun around form her controls, her face distorted in fear.
"It's unmanned! The entry plug hasn't even been inserted yet!"
"Where's the Fifth Child?"
Hyuga stared at the monitor and shouted nervously.
"A.T. Field detected in Central Dogma!"
"Eva Unit 02?!"
"No! It's the Fifth Child! His pattern...The blood pattern is blue! It's definitely an-"
"Angel", whispered Misato in awe. The last one, the 17th, had finally come...
Makoto stared at the screen as the two Eva Units prepared to launch.
"The target has passed the fourth defensive layer and is still descending!"
Commander Ikari entered the area and took his seat, as Fuyutsuki looked on.
"Evacuate the area, seal all shutters and armored partitions surrounding Central Dogma, we need to buy some time"
Aoba nodded.
"Closing all bulkheads, immediately. All personnel, evacuate. All personnel, evacuate immediately"
Fuyutsuki turned to Gendo.
"God have mercy, so it was true. SEELE has sent an angel to us"
"Yes, indeed. The old man wants to advance his schedule using us as his tools. It was expected"
Neon Genesis Evangelion: Episode 26
Knockin' on Heaven's Door
Unknown
The obelisks stood in a grim circle, the voices echoing once more.
"The last angel has intruded into Central Dogma"
"Exactly as we planned"
"Ikari, you were our good friend"
"A comrade"
"An understanding collaborator"
"However, this shall be your final task"
"Unit 00 will not be sufficient to defeat Tabris"
"Now you must use Unit 01"
Tokyo 3, Japan
NERV Headquarters, Control Room
"Unit 02 has penetrated the 14th armored shutter and it's still descending!"
Hyuga spun around to see Gendo stared calmly with his hands folded in front of his face.
"Sir! The target has broken through the second barrier!"
"Send Unit 01 to pursue it, hold Unit 00 as backup"
"But sir? Shouldn't we send both of them in, the angel's abilities are unknown"
Gendo glared icily at Misato.
"Those are my orders, I suggest you follow them"
"Yes sir"
Gendo stared ahead, the light glinting of his glasses.
"Under all circumstances the last angel must be kept from entering Terminal Dogma"
But why did the angel take Unit 02? thought Misato as she peered at the Second Child, who had her head between her knees in silence.
Fuyutsuki leaned in beside Gendo, whispering.
"You don't think it's going to attempt to fuse with Unit 02, do you?"
"Or will it try to bring up about our total destruction. No matter, Unit 01 must eliminate it"
Shinji Ikari trembled inside his Eva, his fists opening and closing, and his voice wavering and loud.
"No! No! No! It's...It's not possible! I won't believe that Kawuro's an angel! It's a lie!"
Naota stared through the video monitor, not knowing what to say to reassure his fellow pilot when Misato's voice broke through.
"It's a fact Shinji, and you must accept it. Prepare to engage it in combat, do you understand?!"
Shinji just stared ahead, his face growing cold, and his face determined.
Eva Unit 01 began descending.
Kawuro Nagisa stared up and smiled warmly, as he floated downward alongside Unit 02.
"Shinji,, you are late"
A wavering, unbelieving grin of insanity danced across Shinji's face.
"Y-You betrayed me...You betrayed the trust I placed in you, our friendship! You betrayed me just like me father did!"
Gendo Ikari simply continued to stare forward, no emotion revealed.
"Unit 01 is approaching the Fourth Layer, it's about to engage the target"
Shinji's fists clenched as he saw Eva Unit 02 before him.
"Dammit! Kawuro!!", he roared.
Kawuro simply grinned widely, his eyes bright.
"I have been waiting for you Shinji"
"Kawuro!!"
Unit 01 charged in, grappling with Asuka's Eva. Their metal armor creaked and slammed into the walls as the two Evas battled.
Shinji activated the command to eject his precision knife, muttering waveringly.
"Asuka...I-I'm sorry"
Unit 02 responded by drawing its knife as well.
The two blades clashed against each other, sparks flying as Kawuro simply floated down alongside them.
"The Eva series was born from Adam, born from man's antithesis. And yet the Lillum will utilize that which they hate most of all in order to survive"
Shinji glanced at Kawuro, confused.
Kawuro peered at the two Evas.
"I do not understand".
Almost as quickly as those words left Shinji's mouth, Eva Unit 02 brought its blade down in an arc at Shinji, who promptly deflected it with his own.
"Kawuro! Stop! Why is this happening?!"
"Your Evas and I are composed of the same matter, born from Adam, I can synchronize with the Eva easily as long as there is no dominant soul"
Sparks flew off the clashing blades as Unit 02 continued pushing the knife closer.
"Unit 02's soul is now hiding itself, thus it is under my control"
"No!"
Shinji slashed his knife wildly, pushing Unit 02 back, the blade making its way towards Kawuro's floating form.
The precision knife was stopped by a blinding , golden aura, which promptly surrounded Kawuro.
Is th-that what I think it is?!
"No?! You've got your own A.T. Field?!"
"Yes, or at least that is what you Lillum call this, the light of my soul. A sacred territory in which no one may intrude! Aren't you Lillum even aware yet, that your so-called A.T. Field is merely that wall that encloses every mind that exists!"
"I don't understand what you're talking about!", screamed Shinji.
Kawuro's A.T. Field grew, slamming into Unit 01's and pushing it back into the walls of the shaft.
"Kawuro!"
Unit 02's knife slammed deep into Unit 01's shoulder, triggering an even sharper scream from Shinji, who swung his knife at Asuka's Eva with rage.
Tokyo 3, Japan
NERV Headquarters, Control Room
"Both Evas has penetrated all the way to the final layer!"
Maya turned to the Commander.
"Twenty seconds until the targets reach Central Dogma".
Misato leaned in beside Hyuga, whispering into his ear.
"If Unit 01's signal is cut off or disappears or if any other changes should occur for the worst-"
Misato's aide-de-camp stared grimly at his keyboard.
"I know, I'll initiate the self-destruct for this entire facility. It's better than letting Third Impact take place..."
"I'm sorry"
"It's okay Major, dying beside you wouldn't be a bad way to go out at all..."
"Thank you"
Tokyo 3, Japan
NERV Headquarters, Central Dogma
The two Evas grappled each other at close quarters, their arms wrapped around each other in gripping embraces as they jabbed their knives into each other, blood slowly dripping out of the wounds.
Kawuro floated away from them, staring ahead.
This is mankind's fate. The thread of human hope is spun with the flax of sorrow.
A blinding flash covered the area.
Tokyo 3, Japan
NERV Headquarters, Control Room
Explosions rocked the command center, sending Misato stumbling back.
"What in the hell is that?!"
Hyuga spun around. "It's another AT-Field, the strongest we've ever detected!
Aoba growled uneasily
"It's shutting out everything, light, magnetism, sub-atomic particles"
Misato looked on, shocked. "It's blocking out everything?"
Hyuga nodded.
"I can't sense anything, the target, Unit Two, Unit One, they're all gone. We've lost communication with the pilot."
Tokyo 3, Japan
NERV Headquarters, Central Dogma
The two Evas slammed down upon the ground, Shinji moaning in pain as Kawuro landed and took one look back, floating away.
Kawuro?! Why? What are you doing?!
"Kawuro! Don't do it Kawuro!"
The Fifth Child's face looked grim and sad, but he continued floating away.
"No! Kawuro! Don't do i-AAAH!", Shinji screamed in pain as Unit 02 plunged its precision knife into his Unit's calf.
Unit 02 pulled Shinji's Eva back, slamming a fist into its face and halting its movement towards Kawuro.
Shinji roared in agony and fury as he slammed his knife into Unit 02's chest.
Kawuro floated in front of the armored shutter, and simply glanced at the controls. It quickly activated and opened. The final angel quickly entered.
Tokyo 3, Japan
NERV Headquarters, Control Room
Maya stared at the screen
"No! The final safety system has been bypassed!"
Hyuga looked grim.
"They've finally reached it, Heaven's door is open"
Misato's fists clenched as she looked on.
"Then the angel has finally reached its goal. Get ready".
Hyuga nodded, sweat dripping off his face.
"What is Shinji's status?!"
"He's still grappling with Unit 02, he's having a hard time though...His synch ratio is fluctuating rapidly!"
Gendo stared ahead, and then spoke, his cold, determined voice rising above all others.
"Deploy Unit 00"
Fly me to the moon,
And let me play among the stars.
Let me see what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars.
In other words, hold my hand!
In other words, darling, kiss me.
Fill my heart with song,
And let me sing forever more.
You are all I long for, all I worship and adore.
In other words, please be true!
In other words, I love you!

Well, that's it for Chapter Three...It may have seemed by the book in a way (er, by the anime, you know what I mean), but don't worry, Chapter Four will be quite different, and as the Chapters go by, more interesting things will come by, although I wonder how long I'm going to take between the defeat of the final angel and the whole SEELE invasion...If I choose to take the story in that direction, that is...
And by the way, I've been editing FoD to make it less sucky, and I'm going to add new chapters too...It'll still probably be my worst fanfic, so I recommend reading and reviewing my other two ongoing ones, "Neon Genesis Evangelion: Madness" and "End of Evangelion: Darkness"
