Well, in a few chapters, this story has gone from really awful, to awful, to mediocre! Meh, it's not that I'm a bad writer, I just consider fanfiction the lowest form of creativity.  Then why am I reading and writing them you may ask? Because I'm an Evangelion freak. The power of Neon Genesis Evangelion is the only thing that could ever get me to write and read fanfics (Except "Like Father, Like Son", I love that fanfic! It's my favorite ever…rock on to the guy who wrote it…whoever it is…)

I've been editing this story, and I'm going to be adding new chapters while writing more chapters for my other two fics, "Neon Genesis Evangelion: Madness" and "End of Evangelion: Darkness"

Just know that as my writing priorities go, the list is like this:

1.) Neon Genesis Evangelion: Madness

2.) End of Evangelion: Darkness

3.) The Fate of Destruction

4.) Neon Genesis Evangelion: The New Age

5.) My Two Dads

Writing for FoD is pretty painful, but I'm hoping as the next few chapters come around I'll turn it from painful to read, to only causing a searing pain in your skull.

Ehehehhe…

Well, time to start the show….

Disclaimer: I don't own Evangelion or its characters. Gainax does, and they rock. Who else could create both Evangelion and FLCL!

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Episode 27

Kawuro's Fate

Tokyo 3, Japan

NERV Headquarters, Central Dogma

Shinji Ikari let out a roar of anger and energy as he slammed his progressive knife into Unit 02's head unit, sending it slamming down to the ground.

Asuka is going to kill me…she still can't pilot because of her synch ratio though…

Unit 01 stomped down roughly on the red Evangelion, the purple unit's legs slamming down on Unit 02's arms, restraining them down.

Shinji expected Unit 02 to move even after such a blow, since there was no pilot inside, yet to his surprise, its glowing eyes grew dull and dormant, and its limbs slumped over, no longer moving.

"Wha!"

The Third Child stared at the limp Evangelion, confused.

Then he remembered his true purpose, he didn't have the time to contemplate such things.

The Fifth Child floated in front of the gigantic white, crucified being, staring at it contemplatively.

"Adam, our creator…Must those born from Adam return to Adam, even if it mean the annihilation of the Lillim race? Wait! This is not Adam! Wah! Lillith!

Kawuro paused, looking Lillith up an down.

"Ah, I understand now, this is Lillith…"

Kawuro turned as he heard a large crash behind him, just in time to see Evangelion Unit 01 stalk into the chamber, a dozen or more feet away.

Kawuro smiled serenely as the large Evangelion hand grasped him, tight enough to stop escape, but not too tight as to break his skeleton.

"Ah Shinji…I am glad. Thank you Shinji."

"Kawuro!"

"I wished you to take Unit 02 from me, otherwise I may have survived much longer"

"Kawuro…Why?"

"It is my destiny to live forever, though it will destroy the Lillim. However it is possible for me to be killed, and whether I live or die makes no great difference. The one thing you Lillim have never been able to grasp, is death maybe the only absolute freedom there ever was."

"What are you talking about Kawuro! I don't understand this!"

"This is my last wish, Shinji. Destroy me. Otherwise you will be destroyed. The life that escapes the time of annihilation, and that obtains the future, is only one and, you are not the one who must die."

Shinji looked down, his entire body shivering.

"Shinji? Why do you hesitate? You need the future. It is what you live for."

"Kawuro…."

"Thank you. My life was meaningful because of you…Goodbye"

"No…"

"What!"

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Episode 27

Nobody wants me. So, everybody just die

Tokyo 3, Japan

NERV Headquarters, Central Dogma

Shinji's voice grew louder and more firm, his entire body shaking in the entry plug.

"No! I've had enough of this…"

Shinji stared at Kawuro as the boy smiled warmly and released Shinji's hand.

"I think I was born just to meet you."

"Shut up! Shut up!"

Evangelion Unit 01 released the Fifth Child from its grasps, as Shinji clutched his head with his hands, screaming.

Kawuro floated backwards, for the first time, a look of confusion and not of a calm smile, on his face.

"This was not in the scenario…"

"So, Third Child…have you ever kissed before?"

Asuka smiled playfully.

Shinji shivered, clutching his head tighter.

"Get out of my head! Get out of my hea-"

"Third Child, what are you doing! Engage the target at once"

His father's voice streamed into his entry plug…Communications must've been reconnected.

"No…"

"What! Enough of this nonsense, he is the enemy, you must destroy the Angels! It is your purpose as a pilot!"

"No! I've had enough! I am the one for which nothing shall change! Nobody wants me, nobody cares, so everybody can just die!"

Tokyo 3, Japan

NERV Headquarters, Control Room

Misato stared at the screen in shock as Shinji's words echoed in the control room.

"Nobody wants me, nobody cares, so everybody can just die!"

She hadn't realized he was this depressed, she hadn't thought about his feelings…If only they hadn't been pulled farther and farther apart over the last few weeks.

"Unit 00 and the Sixth Child have passed the second to last layer, I'll patch in the comm. link"

A small video screen appeared in the main data screen, displaying the boyish face of Naota Kiriyama, who was staring forward with a sort of grim resolution on his face.

"Pilot Kiriyama?"

"Yes, Commander?"

"You will move to the final layer and enter Central Dogma, there you will dispatch the target and restrain Unit 01 for its return to cryo-stasis"

"What? Restrain Unit 01!"

"You have your orders. Do not question them"

Tokyo 3, Japan

NERV Headquarters, Central Dogma

Shinji Ikari ignored the Fifth Child as it floated around his Evangelion. He did not care about that boy's path, he had already resigned himself to whatever fate that would befall him, it was the least he deserved.

He had caused nothing but pain since he had arrived in Tokyo 3.

"Think of this as your home as well, Shinji…"

He paused, and then tentatively stepped over the threshold, his voice but a whisper.

"Nothing will change. So, everybody just die."

Rei looked down into the fountain as the Third Child stood closeby, her face emotionless.

"The first time we touched…I didn't feel anything"

"Huh?"

"Your hand…The second time, I felt odd and queasy, I think"

"Ah…about that, I'm sorry Ayanami"

"The third time…I felt warm inside…It was the heat from your hand, even through the plug suit, you were happy I was alive. But the fourth time, I was just happy…Happy that you were concerned with me."

Rei looked up at Shinji, who looked at her in a mix of awe and admiration.

She spoke, her calm voice echoing in the courtyard.

"May I…hold your hand again?"

"Yeah…"

He shook his head, clawing at his hair.

No, that Rei had left long ago…With the explosion…The present Rei was not her, not in the least…He knew her awful truth…

Ritsuko stood in front of the tanks of liquid, smirking confidently as Shinji and Misato stared in awe.

"Rei!"

A hundred giggles and voices echoed in the room, all Rei, and Shinji stumbled backwards, his eyes bulging out.

"All of these are salvaged parts…Spare Reis…They have no souls, they're nothing but hollow Reis, and I despise them…"

Misato aimed her handgun at Doctor Akagi as the Reis all around Shinji began to dissolve, their eerie smiles still on many of their dissolving faces.

"Do you have any idea of what you're doing!"

"Yes, I'm destroying them…These are not human…just things with human forms…The Chamber of Guff…is empty"

"No one understands me…so everybody just die!"

Shinji stared at the small screen in his entry plug, displaying a smiling Second Child.

"I'll forgive you for the landing, this time. We did win…"

She gave him a warm smile that seemed to make his soul burn with fire.

"And you did pretty well-for a klutz"

Shinji grinned back at her, and their smiles widened.

"Words of praise, from you!"

"They were only around me because they had a use for me…I'm nothing but a tool, I only get praise because I pilot…I've had enough…"

"Shinji...Don't look for me anymore…"

"What?"

"Only infants require parents. You are no longer an infant. Stand on your own two feet and walk…I learned to do the same"

"But I-"

"People can only live by their own strength…They only grow by their own strength…"

"Father…"

"Don't try to think we can understand each other. For some reason people think that they can do that. Remember that they can't. Never completely. Never enough."

Gendo Ikari looked his son in the eye, showing almost no emotion.

"People are such sad creatures…"

For a minute Shinji thought he detected a hint of utter sadness in his father's cold eyes, but shook that thought away as his father turned around towards the waiting helicopter, muttering only this.

"I'm leaving"

"No one cares about me! No one ever cared about me…"

"You know, pain is something man must endure in his heart…"

Kawuro grinned as Shinji fidgeted nervously.

"And since the heart senses pain so easily some believe life is pain. You are delicate like glass, that is, your heart is"

"It is?"

"Yes, this is worth my empathy"

"Empathy?"

"I'm saying I love you"

"Betrayed! All of you! You've all betrayed my feelings!"

The only response Shinji Ikari received for his accusations was a loud sound, like a crash of metal, echoing behind him.

Shinji craned his head over to see a familiar Evangelion standing in the entrance to the chamber, Unit 00.

"A-Ayanami!"

But Shinji already knew the First Child was not with him, even before the young male voice spoke out into his comm. link.

"Shinji? What's going on? Where's the target?"

Shinji slowly turned his Evangelion to face Unit 00, his fists clenching and unclenching.

For some odd reason, he felt a great rage and hate towards this young man he had just recently met.

He did not know why, he only knew what he felt, and right now, he felt like getting his proper vengeance.

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 Chapter Four, the first chapter of The Fate of Destruction that I have just recently written while I've been writing new chapters for "Madness" and "Darkness"…This chapter wasn't as long as I typically write my chapters, but whatever, this fic is in a different format than my other fics, and besides, I think this is the best chapter of the story, primarily because the first three were written right when I got onto the site….Ehehehe, I may still suck just as bad, who knows…Ehehehhe…

See you next chapter, where you'll get angst, Evangelion fighting, and maybe if you're nice, some more scenes with Rei and/or Asuka…Ehehehhe…
