Rebuild of Third Genesis

Chapter 30

"You know, we're here, on our own, and entirely without adult supervision?" Mari suggested impishly after dinner.

Rei and Mana looked at her blankly, while Asuka scowled.

Mari rolled her eyes, "You guys are no fun."

"I don't see the point of getting in trouble just for fun," Asuka shrugged.

"Agreed," Mana nodded.

"Okay, so what do you want to do then?" Mari said, still pouting a bit.

"We could watch a movie?" Rei suggested.

"Sounds like a plan," Asuka agreed.

"Yeah, yeah," Mari sighed but went along.

"Let's see what's on," Mana took the remote and went through various options.

"Wait, go back one," Mari blinked.

A very dubious Asuka read the title aloud, "Fallen Angels: The True Story of Evangelion." She blinked, "Say WHAT."

"It looks like some kind of docu-drama based on what happened," Mana noted.

"We've GOT to watch it," Mari decided. "If only to see how badly they mangle the story."

"Why not?" Rei offered mildly.

Asuka hesitated, "Okay, but if it's really awful we'll change it."

"Welcome to Arisugawa's Locket," the cheerful woman in a maid outfit smiled warmly, "I'm May. Party of two?"

"Yes," Misato said.

"Would you like a table, or...?" May asked.

"I think we'll go hit the bar first, then see," Misato answered May, then she looked questioningly towards Satoko.

"Sure," Satoko agreed as they headed inside. They exited the hall into the main room and blinked, "Wow..."

The place was huge. The bar was made up of two wearhouse spaces where the connecting wall had been knocked out. There was a long bar, a dance floor, tables for eating and such...

"Is that a library?" Misato blinked.

"Apparently," Satoko agreed.

"I need a drink," Misato decided, and the two headed up to the bar.

The customers were pretty wild, too. Ladies in fetish wear, various types of cosplay (?), several fantasy characters, and even a cowgirl waiting tables. It was very entertaining...

"Welcome to the Locket," the odd, purple and blue haired woman smiled, odd scars on each side of her face. "I'm Minagi." As she gracefully finished mixing a drink then handing it to a customer she asked, "First time here?"

"Yes," Satoko smiled then introduced herself and Misato.

"Okay, what can I get you?" Minagi asked.

"Non-alcoholic beer," Misato ordered.

Satoko ordered a non-alcoholic cocktail, then both turned to people watch. "May I ask...?" Satoko started quietly.

"I drank too much during the Angel attacks," Misato shrugged. "I don't want to get into the habit again," she said.

"You were under a large amount of pressure," Satoko offered.

"Still," Misato shrugged as a very well endowed woman walked by in a replica plugsuit.

"Eyes over here," Satoko ordered jokingly.

"Sorry," Misato apologized.

Back at the apartment...

"Shinji, get in the Evangelion!" Gendo ordered.

Brightly Shinji replied, "Sure Dad!"

Watching the film Asuka nearly choked on her drink.

"Bad?" Mari asked.

"You have no idea," Asuka shook her head.

"Asuka," Rei said quietly, "that woman with blue hair is supposed to be me?"

"Well, pretending to be you," Asuka admitted.

After a moment Rei asked, "Why does she appear to have two traffic cones on her chest?"

This time, Mana nearly choked.

"I think she's a bit older than we are," Asuka sighed.

On the TV screen, Shinji was fighting the Angel. "With the power of Evangelion and my Mother's love, we will defeat you!"

"It's two guys in rubber suits," Mari snickered as they watched the 'battle.' She added, "This is worse than old Godzilla films."

"At least Godzilla films have a certain charm to them," Mana noted.

The Angel exploded, then Shinji returned to base to a hero's welcome. And hugs from two very MILF looking versions of Misato and Ritsuko.

"Oh, ick," Mari mock gagged.

"Yeah, that totally didn't happen," Asuka noted dryly.

"I'm really wondering what sources they used to write this," Mana shook her head.

Rei was watching with the sort of fascination you usually had watching a car wreck.

Maya Ibuki sipped her drink, smiling fondly at her lover.

Ritsuko Akagi smiled back, the two of them at a corner table at Arisugawa's Locket.

"Thank you for saying we should go out," Ritsuko noted as she sipped her drink.

"We work very hard, a break every now and then doesn't hurt," Maya said warmly.

The blue haired waitress walked up, smiling warmly. "Evening, my name is Alpha," she said, "refills? Food, snacks?"

"Dinner?" Maya looked at Ritsuko.

"Why not?" Ritsuko agreed.

Alpha produced a menu and said, "Ukyo and Shampoo are cooking tonight, so this is what's available."

The two women made their choices, then Alpha hurried off.

"Have I said this is a ODD nightclub?" Ritsuko noted as a Cowboy strode by.

Maya nodded, "It is pretty outlandish."

Eight women in magical girl costumes wandered by. "Serena, hurry up! There's a open table!" the black haired one scolded.

"Don't be mean, Raye," Serena pouted.

Ritsuko looked at them, blinking. "Couldn't be," she muttered.

Maya blinked as she saw two familiar figures up at the bar. "Isn't that Misato and Satoko?" she asked Ritsuko.

Ritsuko looked to where she was discretely pointing, "Looks like it."

"Do you want to call them over?" Maya suggested a bit reluctantly.

"Nah," Ritsuko shook her head, "let them date in peace."

Not long after the food arrived, and they dug in.

Over in another part of the bar, Misato and Satako were swaying close together out on the dance floor, "Is that Maya and Ritsuko over there?" Satoko asked.

They turned, pointing Misato in the right direction. "Looks like Maya got her to go out," Misato noted cheerfully.

"Want to go say hi?" Satoko asked.

"Let's not interrupt their date," Misato said.

"Hmm," Satoko purred as Misato gently pulled her closer. Then she gently nibbled at her neck, causing a breathy moan.

"I have to confess," Misato murmured in her ear, "my intentions aren't terribly pure."

"I have absolutely no problem with that," Satoko replied softly.

To be continued...
