Mission 01: You Took the Wrong Turn-off

Tokyo-3, 2016

Post-Third Impact

"Pathetic…"

Shinji turned around and pulled his knees up to his chest, crying quietly as Asuka sat up. She looked around the area, taking in the scenario they were in. The world as they knew it was gone, and only destruction was around. She stood up and walked over, looking down at another person laying face down in the sand. He had messy black hair, his blue shirt was torn and his black three-quarter cargos were extremely baggy.

"Who are you?"

The man looked up at Asuka, his eyes a pale yellow.

"My name's Justin. Justin Fraucrutz. Who're you?"

NERV Second Branch

Diary of Justin Fraucrutz

Don't ask me how we ended up in this mess. Right now, it's just too much for me to take. Even from that point of waking up on the beach three years ago.

Those first few days were really hard. We were struggling to find food, and our only shelter was rubble of the city formally known as Tokyo-3.

I wouldn't know what Tokyo-3 used to look like, I didn't grow up here after all. I know that whatever happened hear must've happened back in Australia as well.

It was a few days before some more returned. My brother, Seth returned as well as his girlfriend, my ex, Fiona. My younger sister Amy also came back, and this beautiful girl called Erana was there too.

Asuka and Shinji told us about these things called Evangelions. Knowing we would need them to help out, we tried to grow our own. That's where we got lucky when we found this place.

Shinji said this place went missing before what he calls Third Impact, what I call my death in a giant fireball, and it's a miracle it came back. Inside we found one Evangelion intact, which the computers had as Unit-04. Although he hated them, Shinji had piloted it to help us out with resources. Fiona used her knowledge to grow more of these beasts, using not only cells from Unit-04, but also cells found alive inside those giant statues. We are yet to test the mobile power system in them, called an S2 organ according to these computers, but we know we can synch with them on their power cables. Seth now pilots Unit-04, which is the only one of our Evangelions with armour plating, but I don't find that to be a problem seeing we won't be going into battle.

Shinji even mentioned that Fiona reminded him of this person named Dr Ritsuko Akagi.

Now I've forgotten what I was going to write about… oh yeah, today's both mine and Seth's 16 birthday. Amy surprised Shinji by synching, because she's only 14. I didn't see the big deal myself.

July 31st

"Beginning nural uplinks. Hold on guys."

Fiona began typing information into the computer at lightening speed, her skills seemingly equal to that of Ritsuko. She even had blonder hair to match.

"Oh hurry up, this is rather boring."

"Oh shut up Justin. Alright, beginning start-up sequence of S2 organs."

They all heard a low buzz in their Evangelions, and they breathed deeply. Justin brushed his black hair out of his face, the LCL putting it into his face. Seth leaned back in his entry plug, his brown hair flowing around freely. Amy looked like she could fall asleep, her long blue hair wrapped around her shoulder. Erana just hummed to her self, her blood red hair floating around.

Warning sirens began blaring, and Fiona began working furiously. Shinji began panicking on the observation deck, however just rubbed his shoulder, calming him instantly. Justin tried to contact Fiona, but something was blocking out his signal. A white light shone from the cores of their Evangelions, and Fiona looked on in panic. The white light engulfed them all, and they were gone. Shinji slumped down on the ground as Asuka glared.

"Pathetic…"

Tokyo-3, 2015

Downtown District

July 31st

"The UN aircraft are in position and are ready to drop the N2 mines."

Dr Akagi nodded and sighed.

"Commence rescue operation."

Asuka and Rei stood at the edge of Leliel, the 12th Angel. Rei sat calmly in the entry plug, while Asuka breathed deeply, ready to deploy their AT Fields.

They, along with everyone in the control room were shocked when the Angel started to crack open, Unit-01's arm bursting out the side. The Angel poured a tidal wave of blood as Unit-01 stood up from the carnage, covered in blood.

"Mein gott! Is that what I'm piloting?"

The command crew gasped, spotting four more Evangelions crawling out from the wreckage.

"More Angels?"

"Negative, they have an orange pattern."

"Wait, is that Unit-04!"

Fiona crawled out, her white lab coat soaked in Angel blood.

"Agh! My lab coat is ruined!"

Justin shook his head, in turn shaking is Eva's head.

"Is that all you can think about at a time like this?"

"Oh SHUT up!"

"What are they, ma'am?"

"More Evangelions, but where they came from I don't know. They're being controlled, yet don't have any armour plating."

Justin looked around, taking in the city using his Eva's greater viewing capabilities.

"What city are we in?"

"This would be Tokyo-3."

Justin raised an eyebrow as he stared at the window open in his Eva.

"And you would be…?"

"Dr Ritsuko Akagi. I should ask who you are."

"My name's Justin Fraucrutz. I know of you, Shinji's told me about you."

"You know Shinji?"

Seth opened his own window, joining in the conversation.

"Of course! He found Justin washed up on the LCL beach!"

"LCL beach?"

Justin looked around, confused.

"Ma'am, what year is it?"

"2015, why?"

"We're from 2018."

Gendo sat at his desk, his hand folded in front of his hands the same way as usual, Fyutsuki standing right beside him.

"This wasn't in the scenario."

"The old men won't sit still after hearing this, that's for sure."

"Let the old men squirm, they'll get what they want in the end."

Ritsuko talked with the bridge bunnies, before turning back to her open window.

"We'd like you to come down to NERV HQ with your Evangelions. There, we would like to ask you question about your future and how you got here. Plus how you got those Evangelions."

"Sure, we can do that."

"Good. Follow those three Evas to the Geofront, then."

Authors note: I realise it's not overly descriptive at the moment. It'll get better in the next chapter though. R&R please.
