An unfamiliar ceiling greeted Shinji as he opened his eyes. For a moment he wondered if all of that was a dream. Perhaps he was just imagining things. A sexy monster girl was within his soul did sound like something a teenage mind would think up. 'You do know how to flatter a girl,' A naughty giggle was heard echoing in his head. 'You are really naughty you know trying to hit on yourself.'

As soon as the voice, no Lucy said those words he knew it was real. He actually did have her in his soul, well she was his soul, and everything she told him was real. 'I am going to have a lot to think about.'

Lucy left him to his thoughts as Shinji weighed his options and what he had. Right now it looked like he had basically been drafted into a war by his father. Shinji had expected that there was a catch but this was a too much. Now, he discovered that he had the soul of an ancient God-like entity, who happened to be of the same kind of thing that spawned humanity, and said entity was female. "When did my life turn into this?"

'Sorry, but my defense I wasn't expecting to get nearly killed trying to stop planetary genocide!' Right, that part wasn't Lucy's fault. From what she told him the Seeds of Life and Knowledge were not supposed to end up on the same world. 'Besides I didn't expect this to happen when I set off in search of my beloved.'

Before Shinji could ask a bunch of follow up questions about this Misato walked in wearing a different outfit from before. Shinji wondered why she had decided to change. "Shinji you're awake."

She seemed rather surprised by this. Shinji looked at a clock overhead and saw that it was ten twenty-five. Had he been asleep for much of the afternoon? "How long was I out?"

"Oh about three days," Misato's answer caused Shinji shit up in surprise at this. He had been unconscious for three days! "Hey, chin up you won't be staying in here for long," She gave him a smile and a wink. "I'll be moving in with me."

Shinji didn't know what to say to that. Lucy, however, was a different story. 'I think your father just did this because he doesn't have a place for you,' She stopped as she realized how terrible that sounded. 'I am starting to understand why you don't think he loves you.'

Rei stared at the ceiling in the medical ward without much of a care. She had heard about the Third Child defeating the Angel having piloted the Evangelion after seeing her in her current state. Strangely she had a vague sense that this wasn't the First time they had met each other. 'Perhaps it was in my previous incarnation?'

It had been a long time since then. It could be she had forgotten about him or an incomplete memory transfer. Thinking about it she dismissed it as according to what she remembered the Commander hadn't seen his son in over a decade, just before her first incarnation was allowed to walk around, so that couldn't be the case. Rei was pulled from her thoughts as she saw the Commander out the corner of her eye.

Gendo held Kyoko's diary in his hands. He had read the few passages about Asuka that Kyoko had written in. Call him curious but he had to see if there was anything unusual from the child to get something of an idea. "Rei it has come to my attention that you are not the only one of your kind," He handed her the diary and the page that he had marked. "It appears that you have a half-sister and I am doing all I can in order to make sure that she is transferred her as soon as possible."

Rei read over the notes with a tiny hint of surprise. The commander's wife had taken cells from her friend Kyoko and mixed in DNA from Lilith. According to this, she did state that she used a portion of Lilith's soul for the resulting baby. 'I have a sibling.'

This was a former thought to her. She didn't have anything of a family. At best she had genetic donors and a purpose to cause Third Impact the way Gendo wished. Reading that there was another person like her, one who shared both her DNA and her soul, made her want to meet them. 'This also explains the strange feelings I have on occasion and those dreams.'

She placed this book down as she thought about what this meant concerning her purpose. She knew since she was removed from the tank that her purpose was to cause Third Impact. To return to Lilith when everything was said and done and the last Angel had been defeated. Her sister, Asuka Langley Soryu, was now needed to complete that. A sister who had been made to give someone a daughter. A purpose that wasn't the same as her own. "What does this mean?"

"At best the scenario has to be altered to account for your sibling," That depend on if Asuka was easy to manipulate or if Rei could convince her. Given how her mother did die when she was young it was possible. "Also, I am moving you out of your apartment and having you live with Captain Katsuragi and my son."

Rei didn't question this as she gave him a nod. It was likely that he wanted the two pilots under one roof in order to make getting them easier. "Understood."

Misato's apartment was a complete mess. He had actually wondered how someone could even live in this place. Then he found out that she had a pet penguin, Pen Pen. A pet that was according to Misato was far more intelligent than normal thanks to being genetically altered. She also had two refrigerators one for Pen Pen to sleep in and another that had a lot of beer within it. 'Let's see she drinks a lot of alcoholic substances, has rather revealing outfits, and her living space is a mess,' Lucy comment with a thoughtful expression. 'I guess your father must have known about your need to keep things clean.'

Shinji rolled his eyes at that. Like his old man knew anything about him. As he got rid of the last batch of beer cans he decided to take a break. Shinji's mind had a lot of questions. As he was cleaning he thought about why his father had called to get him to pilot a giant robot, why that girl seemed familiar, and even more about what Lucy was doing on earth when Second Impact happened.

"I can answer two of them,' Of course, Lucy was still there with him. 'The reason as to why he called you is probably due to your mother being the soul of Eva-01.'

"Wait what?" That just sounded outlandish. Sure in the span of about three days he had learned the aliens are real, that all life on earth came from a God-like creature, and that he had one in his body as his soul. His mother being inside a giant robot, even one that was at the core organic, was just too much.

'The Eva-01 has a soul and that is of your mother because if this it's likely only a handful of people could pilot it,' Lucy knew that Shinji was going to be in denial about this. It was the whole reason he had lost his memory of his early childhood. 'As for why I was here?' There was a degree of embarrassment to her tone. 'I kind of wanted to find Lilith because I may have…'

Lucy didn't seem like she wanted to answer it but Shinji had an idea as to what it was. That was two questions answered although the last one was something that they both wondered. After thinking about any reason for it Lucy remembered what You had done for her friend. 'She has part of Lilith's soul!'

Shinji wondered if he heard that right. She was like him and had Lilith's soul within her? 'How do you know that?'

'Because it's already happened before,' Lucy didn't know if this was a good thing or a bad thing. splitting up a soul had a variety of problems. Having two conscious beings with pieces of the same soul was bound to cause a bleeding effect.'Your mother made a child for her friend Kyoko using said win and genes mixed with Lilith's own and then infused a part of Lilith's own soul.'

Lucy showed him what she meant. In the images from what Lucy recalled was Yui creating a child for her heartbroken friend. This noble intention had another motive behind it. By pointing part of Lilith's soul into the child Yui hoped to prevent Third Impact from coming into being. 'Are you saying that the girl we just met is the same?'

Lucy, if she could, would have shaken her head at this. She knew that the one that Yui had made for Kyoko was a redhead and this girl had ice blue colored hair. This had to be another girl grown and infused with another part of Lilith's soul. 'This is a different girl.'

The door opened up as Misato walked into the apartment with a box in her arms. "Hey, Shinji could you help me clean out the other room?" Misato put the box down as Shinji saw a bunch of books and underwear within it. Underwear for a girl around his age. "We'll be having another roommate living with us."

He looked at her with a questioning look. "Who?"

"Oh, Rei would be moving in with us."

Asuka Langley Soryu looked at herself in the mirror as she moved her right arm. The phantom sensation of it being broken still lingering as she knew that wasn't the case. For the last few days, she had felt this without knowing why it was. The doctors had not the faintest clue. Even the local metaphysical specialists couldn't give a straight answer. 'It's not as weird as the dreams I am having.'

In them, she is in a room with a giant of white nailed at a cross off to the side. The floor below her was filled with LCL fluid and despite it being liquid she was standing on it like it was solid. In front of her was an albino ice blue haired girl with red eyes just like her own. The two would stare at each other. When one moved a limb the other would mirror it with there own. Asuka reached out to touch her and every time the dream would end before they could touch.

Walking out into the cage housing Eva-02 the redhead saw several of the NERV German branch arguing. Asuka was going to ignore it when one of them yelled in disbelief for her to hear. "He wants us to hand over both our pilot and our Evangelion Unit why?!"

Asuka turned her attention as she wondered if she heard that right. There was only a few who could demand her Evangelion and it's pilot. The U.N. Forces and other NERV branches came to mind. Even then she didn't think that anyone here would just willingly give up one of only four Evangelions in the world. "Yes, and the thing s I think the U.N. is backing him in this."

"Oh great they get beat up once and they are already doing whatever he wants," That was something she overheard the other day ago. An Angel had attacked Tokyo-3 and the JSSDF tried to stop it. They failed and then the newest pilot, the Third Child, took it on and killed it.

She was a bit annoyed that some rookie pilot got to fight in their Evangelion while she was stuck with continuing to practice for a fight instead of having one. She had been doing this the longest out of any other pilot as the only one even came close was the First Child and she still had years over them. "That's it then Eva-02 is going to Japan then?"

There was a nod from the person who broke the news. "Correct the U.N. fleet will be coming by to pick up the Evangelion and transfer it over while Asuka will be flown to Japan by the end of the week."

Shinji looked at his room as he sat on his bed. Misato had ordered takeout and after both, it and a few beers had passed out on the couch. He had moved her to her bed before returning to his own. The room next door was going to be for Rei when she got out of NERV's infirmary. 'Tomorrow is my first day of school here.'

He didn't have the best nor the worse memories when it came to school. He kind of just had school all things considered. Being something of an outcast. 'You know I've been thinking,' Lucy seemed to appear out the corner of his eye. A trick of the mind to visualize the entity that shared the same soul with him. 'Is it possible for us to use our powers even in the state we found ourselves in?'

Lucy was talking about the abilities that she had. She had theorized that without the body of Lucifer they couldn't use any of them but as it was only a theory she had to be sure. 'Wouldn't that set off some kind of alarm?'

Shinji was worried about them possibly being attacked for being an Angel. That fact had crossed her mind a few times but Lucy figured she could trick the system. 'This would be so much easier if we had our old body in front of us then we could just return to being what we are or assimilate it into this current one,' She paused for a moment before asking him a more surprising question. 'How you feel about becoming a hermaphrodite?'

'... Do I even what to ask?' Honestly he was starting to wonder if he even had a say in that. Actually, if he did suddenly change genders would he embrace it? He liked it better when he did have the knowledge of what he was thrusted on him.

'I think it's best that you get some sleep.' With that Lucy disappeared retreating back into their soul.

Shinji looked at the clock to his side and let out a sigh. He pulled out the blanket that Misato had gotten for him. It was rather simple with the only unique thing being the image of a snake on it. Pulling it up he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Before Shinji, he saw a mirror. Touching the mirror it shattered before revealing himself as a girl. One his own age with the noticeable trait being somewhat bigger breasts for her age. Touching the mirror again it revealed himself yet again this time as he currently was.

It shattered again and revealed himself both reflections one as a boy and as a girl side by side. This then broke apart shattering one last time. Shinji was now back by himself as the shadow covered form of Eva-01 was staring at him. He saw two of himself one a boy and the other a girl standing side by side in front of it.

Before anything else could happen the images morphed into the Angel from before. Shinji took a step back but it was no use. It grabbed him and started to crush him as it pulled him up to its face. Shinji let out a scream of terror before his dream shattered and he found himself on the ground.

A cold wind blew past him as he got up and saw a city. One built in a way that seemed more like a fortress. Two setting suns could be seen in the distance. The plant life was familiar to him yet looking at it he saw several differences to any he knew. "You know it's been two decades since I left this world," Turning his head Shinji saw Lucy looking out at the city before them. She took a seat on a rock as the cold breeze continued past them. "With the way things are going, I figured there wasn't any need for me to stay here."

Shinji turned back to the city noticing what looked like helicopter planes flying out. This was the world that she had landed on before she left looking for Lilith. "What is it called?"

"Sheol," She turned to him as the sky turned red from the sunset. "This world is called Sheol and it is the one that we landed on." The night sky soon appeared as the two moons hung themselves overhead. "You know Shinji all things considered I'm glad that it's you that I was reborn as."

He wondered why she would say that. Before Shinji could get an answer from her the dream suddenly ended as Shinji found himself looking at the ceiling.

Gendo knew that they would eventually demand that he answer himself. Officially NERV was under supervision by a U.N. committee. Unofficially said committee was made up a group who didn't listen to the U.N. and had throughout history held differing degrees of power over the world. Some of the more noticeable instances in history being the assassination of an Archduke which caused World War One, and the expedition which triggered Second Impact.

Most considered them just a conspiracy theory made up by the fringe lunatics. Those that understood the truth knew they were correct and were afraid of them. They were SEELE and in the post-Second Impact world, they were practically the kings of it. "Tell me why did you demand the Second Child be transferred to NERV headquarters?"

The Commander of NERV looked at the floating obelisks before him. There means of communications with him. A tactic they used in order to appear anonymous. To scare anyone who worked for them. Such a thing was of no use on Gendo. He knew who a few of them really were and finding out the rest was doable given enough time. They knew this and never commented on it nor has he.

"If I recalled your Dead Sea Scrolls do not state when or even if the Second Child was to join the fight," Gendo had managed to catch a brief photo of them. Having read the documents he knew about as much as they did. This combined with knowing half of their names was why they had nothing to target him. "As such, I am within my right as overall Commander of NERV to ask for any resource from the other branches I deem necessary."

Said resource, in this case, was the other vessel for Lilith's soul. Compared to her and the importance of his project the Evangelion Unit was just a tiny bonus. To SEELE it just seemed like he was demanding that they give him another pilot and Evangelion that was already under his command. Gendo watched as they argued amongst themselves. This was a bit of a gamble all things considered. If they didn't allow this then there was a chance that they would look into why he wanted the Second Child.

After several minutes of arguing they had reached a decision. "Very, well you can have your pilot," He held back a smirk at this. "However," The feeling of victory just seemed to disappear. "We will like for you to go on another expedition to the Antarctic."

Soon after Second Impact much of the southern continent became a wasteland. Only the hardiest of lifeforms could survive even the few places were life was still possible. The seas around the continent were only a little better off. SEELE had already sent another group there a few years ago and some of them had died from exposure to the environment. "If I may ask why?"

"During the last expedition a those that returned had confirmed the signs of a fight between the first Angel and another force even stating that there was a Second Spear of Longinus there," SEELE 5 explained though Gendo had long suspected that was the case. Yui had written about it in her notes. Her dreams of the event when Adam first awoke. Of waking up when the giant was defeat and seeing a purple figure which healed her wounds as it was dying. "If you do go and return you are allowed to keep whatever you find as long as you report to us what it is you found."

Gendo knew that a spy would be put in place with them. Still, there were possible benefits to going on this mission and who knows. Perhaps their little spy would meet an accident while on the trip. "Very well."

With that SEELE cut off their transmission as Gendo was left to himself. Walking out of the room he found Kozo standing there. "You know it could be a trap for you."

"I expected nothing less." Gendo adjusted his glasses as he knew to keep a close eye on everyone while he was there.

When Asuka slept she expected to see the same girl as before. The dreams seemed to always happen on the same day. She was once again standing on the LCL fluid with the giant nailed to a cross. Nothing out of the ordinary and turning her head she was greeted with the girl. She was covered in bandages with only one of her eyes being able to look at her. "Sister."

Asuka's eyes widened in surprise as the girl finally spoke. She called her sister and the strange thing is she felt, no she knew, that this was true. The girl walked up to her and stood just in front of her. "You are Asuka Langley Soryu correct?"

"Yes," Asuka wondered if this was just some kind of reflection of her mind. This was just a dream, right? "Who are you?"

"I am Rei Ayanami," Rei answered as the girl looked at her sister. A strange thing to think about. "I am your half-sister."

This was all just a dream Asuka told herself. She knew that her mother didn't have any other kids. Asuka was an only child. Out the corner of her eyes, she looked at the giant. Never once in her dreams did it move its head. Now it was staring at her and Rei. Her eyes widened as images passed by of her mother and another woman.

Asuka shot up in fright as she took deep breaths. She gripped her head as images flashed. They were brief but it showed her mother asking the woman about how something was made. That something being her. She gripped herself as a horrifying thought crossed her mind. She was made in a lab. 'B-but that can't be mama would have told me right?'

Maybe her mother planned to tell her before she went crazy. Before the incident that slowly destroyed her sanity took hold. Asuka shook her head at this. It was only a dream. Those visions meant nothing. 'I wasn't grown in a lab!' Asuka refused to accept that she was just some kind of experiment that her mother made. 'That was just a dream!'

Somehow despite her attempts to deny it a small part of her didn't. Asuka pushed that part to the furthered reaches of her mind. Looking at the clock she saw that it was close to time for her to get up anyway.

Keel stood at his desk as he looked over pictures taken nearly fifteen years ago. On it was a purple giant attacking Adam. At least it seemed like it. The image was so blurry that even with the most advanced image recreation technology could only make vague images. 'We have an interloper.'

After everything, he had planned an unknown veritable seemed to have entered into the picture. From the scrolls, he knew that there others besides the Seed of Life and Knowledge that were here on earth. The first trip to Antarctica after Second Impact had confirmed it. Though they didn't find any trace other than a Spear of Longinus which they couldn't reach. 'Once Gendo retrieves it we can finally confirm if it's like Adam and if it's in a weakened state.'

He pulled up a report on SEELE secret Evangelion project. The remains of Sachiel were being delivered as he had hoped. From it and the other Angels, they planned to create a special breed of Evangelion. All to be built on the U.N. moon base.

More things change the more they stay the same. So, I think this clears up any questions the last two chapters had while raising more questions. Also, I just used another reference from Jewish teachings because its Evangelion. Yeah, I have no idea what I'm even saying I'm somewhat asleep as is.

Cya all next time!
