Inside NERV Headquarters
Gendo Ikari was in his office with sub-commander Fuyutzuki , planning his next scenario.
Ikari the scrolls read that the 15th Angel will be here today , what are you going to about this ?
I will send the second to fight Arael on her own.
But they will suspect something.
They will follow my orders without fail .
How are you so sure ? What if the second isn't able to defeat Arael ?
Then we will send Rei for support.
You know what this Angel can do . The risk is high. We might end up with one less pilot.
If something were to happen to the second , we will just replace her with the fifth , and Rei of course is easily replaceable.
How are you so confident that everything will come out your way ? What if the second is able to defeat the Angel ?
She won't , I've made sure of that.
Dr. Ritsuko Akagi enters the room with a stack of papers.
Commander Ikari , I have news that might interest you.
Gendo looked at her confident that she was about to say something about the Angel.
What have you found out Dr . Akagi ?
There is something strange happening in the star patterns.
The star patterns ? Of what importance are the stars to me.
I think you should see this Sir. She hands him a paper.
All I see here is a picture of the stars . I don't see anything wrong here.
This is a picture of the stars in the year 1970. she points to an empty spot on the stars. You see this empty spot ?
Yes .
Well if you observe closely , you can see that it forms a trail of emptiness that goes all across the sky.
I don't see your point in this ?
She shows him another picture of stars. This is the same date , meaning the same position of stars , in the year 1980. Do you see something different ?
That the line is now longer than before . I still don't see your point ?
Scientists believe that most of the stars are other solar systems and galaxies . Stars like the sun take millions of years to die out.
Those stars died out in only 10 years.
And what are you trying to say ? That the process is advancing ? Fuyutzuki asked interested in the discovery.
No , those stars or galaxy's were wiped out in the middle of the night. She hands him yet another paper.
This is the same date , yesterday , 2015 , now see the difference.
The line grows wider the longer it grows. Gendo states.
It isn't wider , it's closer to us , that's why it looks bigger by the years.
And what are you trying to say Dr. Akagi ? And how do you know they vanished over night.
Because last night one of the stars exploded and disappeared in seconds. A star takes years to explode , and when it finally explodes it takes more than just two seconds to pull the planets or meteors into it.
So the process of aging and exploding of the stars is speeding up ? is this what your trying to say ?
No Sir , Something was able to " blow up" all of those stars in the same time it takes for one to just be born.
Just like the one you saw ?
Yes , that star that was right next to our solar system.
Gendo was about to send her off when she spoke again.
If my calculations are correct , the next star system to " disappear " is this one. Whatever happened to those stars is about to happen to us soon.
How long do you think it will take to happen here ?
I calculated that it will happen……this year…….
But you said it took years to happen ? Fuyutzuki yelled nervous.
It seems that the process was faster and faster with every star that "disappeared" until it reached the point that it takes only days to happen.
So……what do you think it is ? Fuyutzuki thought of every possible theory but all he could think about was ( aliens)he punished himself for thinking such irrational thoughts.
I have a theory that it might be some kind of gas that contaminates the star and makes it explode , absorbing the energy of the star and growing in size , thus making it faster.
Very well Dr. Akagi leave the papers here and go. Gendo pointed to the door .
Yes Sir . Ritsuko salutes Gendo and leaves.
Do you believe what she says commander ?
No , she has no proof , it probably is that all those nights the sky was cloudy. She is just overreacting.
This makes me feel uneasy Sir.
Even if this gas is real , Third Impact will have already happened , it will just destroy an empty solar system.
I guess your right commander……
In school it was almost time for the students to go home.
( Come on Shinji , you can do it , just walk up to Rei and ask her ……but what if she rejects me , witch she probably will….I'll be the laughing stock of the whole school , everybody will say " look there goes the boy who couldn't even ask Rei out " …….this is hard , how do those other boys do it ?) Shinji thought waiting for the bell to ring.
Hey Toji look at Shinji , he's more nervous than you in an IQ test . Kensuke whispered to Toji from their seats.
Watch it Ken , I don't want to scrub the classroom because of you.
Cool down Toji , but look at Shinji , he doesn't have to get so worked up over some game.
You idiot! He's must be thinking how to make Rei go with him.
We were only joking , there's no way Rei will ever go out with anyone to any thing fun.
Poor Shinji , we better get the tissues ready .
Rei was staring out the window , while Shinji passed small glances at her.
( I mean look at her , she doesn't even care about the class )he thought .
( Why does Ikari keep looking at me ? Does he not know that I can see his reflection in the window ? ) Rei thinks looking at the commotion on the school park( Why do they do such activities ? They have no use , they are just a waste of time )
Asuka is talking to someone on her cell phone trying to hide it form the Sensei.
An Angel ? but we don't hear the alarms….
In space!...
Okay we'll be right there Misato…..
Asuka stood up and looked out the window to see a black car waiting for them.
Rei was already walking out the door. Miss Ayanami were are you going ?
Sensei we have been called for an Angel attack , we have to go. Asuka yelled raising her hand.
Very well , you may go to do your jobs.
Lets' go Baka! She pulls Shinji out of his seat and drags him out the door.
But the alarms aren't sounding Asuka ,and I don't see any thing happening ?
Who cares let's hurry up , I was starting to fall asleep there.
In NERV the EVA's are being prepared for the pilots arrival.
Maya what's the Angel doing ?
It's currently not doing any thing Sempai it's just floating there.
What's its wave patterns ?
The Angel's wave pattern is orange .
What the hell is it doing ? Give me a visual. Misato ordered quickly.
The screens show the 15th Angel Arael hovering in space , with it's large glowing wings sticking out it's back.
Heh , an Angel that actually looks like an angel , how about that ?
Misato this is no time to be joking . Ritsuko scolded her.
Sorry, but you have to admit it really does look like a real angel.
Ritsuko noticed a small moving flash in space coming from the "empty" spot she showed to Gendo.( it can't be …not now)
In space , Arael doesn't seem to have noticed that it wasn't alone
Two creatures looked down on Earth , both had a demonical look in their faces.
(So this is our next food ball ? it's pretty small )Bebeal observed the planet carefully searching for the best landing place .
Shaktoo also observed the planet and couldn't help but aww in it's beauty.
(Such lush colors , I bet it has forests that go on for miles , big wide seas , I haven't seen a planet like this in a looong time )he looked mesmerized at the light of Earth.
(And green means lots of food )Bebeal clicked her claws together while liking reptile lips with her pointy tongue.
Shaktoo scratched his chin ,still checking out the strange planet (There's something about this planet….)
(Hey look Bro! They already have a snack for us waiting!) she pointed to a the Angel who was drifting in space alone.
(Come on let's go!) She pulled his small arm seeing that he had a terrified look on his face. (Shaktoo , what the hell is wrong with you ?)
(It…..can't…….be) he whispered in his breath . (What can't be ? come on I'm hungry!)
He smiles showing off his sharp teeth and starts to chuckle creepily.
(What the hell got into you ? laugh later when were killing all the planet)
(COME ON LET'S HAVE US A FEAST!) he screams flying into the Angel's direction.
(FINALLY YOU IDIOT! WAIT FOR ME!)
They sharpen their claws and their teeth grow bigger.
NERV HQ
Where are the pilots ? They shouldn't have taken so long . Ritsuko is furious watching her watch over and over.
Major Katsuragi we just received a call from Asuka .
GIVE ME THAT! She grabs the telephone quickly.
WERE IN THE WORLD ARE YOU?
What do you mean an accident ?...
Oh okay that's good to know….
Then get a car from some guy around….
Tell him it's NERV business…..
I don't care if he looks like a pig!……
JUST GET HERE BEFORE THE WORLD ENDS! NOT A LOT OF PRESSURE!
Misato slams the phone hard on the desk.
What's wrong Misato ?
The car had a flat tire and crashed on a fire hydrant . Their okay , but they can't get here on time.
What are we going to do now ? Maya was getting hysterical of how helpless they were.
Input the dummy plug system on all three EVA's. Gendo replied from behind his hands.
But Commander ,we don't know if it can work on units 02 and 00.
The loud roar of the Angel was heard over the screen , everyone looked to see what was happening.
What's happening to the Angel ? Why is it squirming around like that. Misato saw the Angel roar in pain , flapping its wings desperately.
Sir the sound waves are picking something up.
What is it ?
Maya turns on the sound scanner revealing the Angel's roars.
((help me)) it says in the translator.
Help me ? Why does it want our help ?
There's something else.
The sounds of hisses and growls are heard over the screen , it almost sounded as if it was laughter.
WHAT THE HELL IS THAT? That's not the Angel! Misato yells gasping loud at what she saw next.
Commander Ikari there is something else with the Angel! Maya screams zooming in the camera's.
What are those things ? Ritsuko steps back seeing that two tiny red specks were tearing out the Angel's wings.
The clear sound of two identities laughing was heard , but it was clearly not human.
The Angel kept flapping it's only wing left while it's attackers kept laughing at it, tearing at it's glassy body.
(this thing tastes like glass) Shaktoo chewed glowing , glass like shards in his mouth.
(This giant birdy tastes awful , but I can smell something good inside it) Bebeal was spitting out the glass and kept on tearing deep into Arael .
(I can smell it , something meaty is in the core , I want it!) She extended her hands to a size that was able to grab the Angel like a toy , and crushed the Angel with her claws.
Everyone at NERV saw two giant clawed arms appear out of nowhere and rip the Angel like a leaf.
What is that thing ? WHAT'S HAPPENING! Misato kept yelling to Ritsuko to tell her answers.
I……don't know…….we don't know what they are…..
Ritsuko tell me those things aren't doing what I think their doing!
Their…..
DAMN IT , THEIR EATING THE ANGEL IN THE MIDDLE OF SPACE! Misato held Ritsuko's lab coat with her fists while the other hand pointed to the screen.
Sempai they have found the S2 organ!
Good , they'll die in the explosion with the Angel.
(There it is! It looks tasty , I'm going for the first bite) Bebeal went to bite the red orb expecting a bloody pop to happen.
(WAIT DON'T BITE IT! )But he was too late for she had already crunched down on the orb.
(YOU IDIOT! )An immense explosion flashed in the NERV screen making everyone cover their eyes for a few seconds .
When they looked to see what happened , nothing was left of the Angel or the two attackers , the threat was gone…….or so they thought.
They must have been some sort of aliens that saw the Angel as prey , in their hunger they got themselves killed . Ritsuko explained as Misato let her go.
Gendo sighed in relief that the new threats were destroyed and that the Angel had been defeated.
Tell the pilots that the threat is over , and explain to them what happened. Gendo stood up and left to his office.
Well…..erm…..since the Angel got , eaten , that means I can go home right ? Misato pleaded .
Yes Major , now go tell your kids the most crazy story NERV has ever had. Makoto chuckled.
Ritsuko was still looking at the screens wondering ( could those things be... )
In the atmosphere , two dots crash trough the clouds…..
