Shinji looked around as he saw what appeared to be a moon orbiting a gas giant. The purple color mixed with a dark blue and white creating an almost alluring image. He looked as he saw something land on the moon with him. It was gigantic compared to the landscape. It was brown with a body that was seemingly a snake-like with two large claw-like hands and arms. Its face was seemingly devoid of a mouth. Either that or it was covered in what happened to be a beard. One single eye stared at them. It's sclera blood red with blue iris. The top of its head seemed to mimic a crown as two bird-like things flew around him. In his hands was something that looked like a Spear.

Nothing was said for a few moments before Shinji could feel something spread out from him and touch another invisible thing. A deep baritone voice echoed in his mind speaking a language he didn't know but could still understand. "I knew I felt a fellow Progenitor somewhere nearby."

A feminine giggle echoed from Shinji. He heard Lucy speak to this being almost like they were friends. "I was just passing through and I assume your world is the rather large moon orbiting the other gas giant in this system?"

"Indeed it's been coming along nicely," The entity was a progenitor like Lucy and Lilith. Shinji soon realized that this was one of Lucy's memories. "I forgot to introduce myself, Odyn and I am of the Seeds of Life."

"Lucifer, Seed of Knowledge," Lucy answered back to her fellow progenitor.

A hand was placed on Shinji's shoulder as he turned around. He almost jumped before he found Lucy who seemed to be giggling at his actions. "A little jumpy are we?" Lucy looked at the image in front of her with a hint of nostalgia. "You know I had gotten fairly bored at the time when I decided to do a little flying through space before I stumbled on his world about five hundred light years from my own."

Odyn gripped his spear in hand as did Lucy. The two of them then hit each other and they began to push back with each of their strength. Shinji looked on at this a little concerned before Lucy patted his head. "Hey, don't worry this was more his idea for us to have a friendly spare and well given how bored I was I figured why not," The two continued to watch as it was painfully obvious that when it came to fighting that Lucy sucked. "Of course, he won made fun of how bad I was at fighting and then offered to train me how to use my Spear of Longinus as a weapon."

With that said the dream of the memory faded away. Lucy gripped her left shoulder for a moment. She could still remember the pain that he had put her through when it came to it. "It sounds like the two of you had quite the friendship."

"Yeah, though at first I disliked him greatly but after a few million years we became friends," She had a chuckle at an old thought. When one of his creations called her auntie in front of him. "Actually, I managed to find or contact all if the other Seeds by the time I went off to look for Lilith."

Shinji awoke blinking for a few moments before he realized that he felt like he wasn't just watching his body. Holding his arm up to prove this Shinji found himself back in control of his body. He immediately got up to make sure he wasn't dreaming. "I'm back in control of me."

How this happened Shinji didn't care. He was finally back in control of himself and that was really all that mattered. Looking at the clock he might as well get up and get started on breakfast. When he walked out of his room he stopped as he saw Rei walking out of the bathroom with nothing on. Shinji stopped himself as he shouldn't stare yet his eyes got the better of him. 'I feel like a horrible person.'

"Good morning Shinji," Rei didn't even seem phased at all by any of this. In fact, she was more concerned with how he was acting in front of her. "Is there something the matter?"

Shinji just couldn't believe it. She was standing in the nude in front him. He was looking at her body and she wasn't complaining about it at all. 'I don't see what the problem is either.'

He couldn't tell if that was Lucy being perverted or if that was just the strangeness of her being an alien. Regardless he felt like a pervert himself and he was doing nothing but looking at her. Misato with a groan walked into the room rubbing her eyes before she stopped and looked at the scene before her. "Shinji, Rei what are you both doing?!"

Rei obvious to the whole fact that she was indecent turned to Misato. "I asked Shinji if he was feeling well when he started to twitch randomly."

Misato just looked at the girl and at Shinji. She didn't know what was more concerning. The fact that Rei was perfectly fine with just standing in the nude, or the fact that Shinji was looking at her. "Rei get some clothes on me and Shinji are going to have a talk."

Rei gave a nod in confirmation. While Shinji stared at his guardian as he felt his spine tingle with fear. Misato crossed her arms in front of her chest as she stared at him. Shinji tried to open his mouth but couldn't form anything. All he felt was shame as Misato looked at him. "You shouldn't have done that you know Shinji," Misato also made note of Rei's actions as well. 'I might have to have a talk with that girl about her being more careful.'

Kaworu walked through the now tempered heat of the Nevada desert. It was in this location nearly seventy years ago that the first nuclear weapons were tested. At the time it was humanities more dangerous weapon ever designed. A title that the Evangelions had been sure to take for themselves. "Fitting really that this is where they decided to set up testing for the three newest Eva Units."

Some part of him wondered how they even made this many Evangelion Units. Sure, Adam was ripped apart by the other Seed of Knowledge and some of his bits were recovered but this many Evangelions seemed like too much for that. Then again they probably cultivated what they had. He stopped as he finally came across the outskirts of the NERV USA base, or as it was once called pre-Impact, Area 51.

"Hey, you!" He turned around and was met with the barrel of an automatic gun curiously of one of the base patrols. Not from NERV itself, no it was from the US Army which held a lot of interest in its branch. "This area is restricted and I am authorized to kill any trespassers leave now."

Kaworu held his hands up at this. Sure he could use his powers to block the bullets but if he did he might run the risk of getting SEELE after him. Instead, he had something to let him get past. "I was sent here by the U.N." He reached into his pilot and pulled out an ID Card one he was able to make thanks to SEELE's rather lax control over him. Q"See."

The soldier looked at in surprised. Apparently, the kid in front of him was selected as a potential Eva Pilot by NERV. "It looks real though I will have to have it verified."

A nod of understanding come from Kaworu. He expected nothing less. An hour later he was walking down the halls of the underground bunkers. Within their cages appeared to be each of the Evangelion that had been built in Nevada. Units 03, 04, and 05. "So Kaworu Nagisa the fifth child," The head of the local NERV branch was looking over his information. Most of which he had faked beforehand except for his name. He just went with the name he was given by the Lilin. "Honestly, with the way, no one tells me anything I won't be surprised if we have a sixth child."

They stopped as he was lead to the cafeteria were a girl around his physical age. "Mari come over here we have someone for you to meet!" The girl in question around still drinking her slushy drink. She finished the last few sips before standing up. "This is Mari Makinami Illustrious the Fourth Child."

'So this is Mari,' Honestly, he didn't have anything to expect in that regard. He didn't know what being half-British even meant. As for the girl in front of him she had glasses over her hazel eyes and brunette hair in twin tails.

"This is Kaworu Nagisa the fifth child." As soon as those words left the base Commanders mouth she looked at him with eyes wide in surprise.

Mari having little to do at the base had tried online chats and from there made something of a front with a guy named Kaworu who also was stuck at some place where he couldn't leave. Now, said friend was standing right here in front of her and was the fifth child. A fellow Eva pilot like her. "No way."

School was finally over and Shinji couldn't be more grateful. All throughout the class, some guy had been giving him a glare and he was unsettled by that. What did he do that made him so mad? 'Who knows he could just dislike you on some dumb sense of duty,' Lucy had noticed it before but thought literally nothing of it. Shinji did know that one of the students knew about the fight from before. Lucy though deleted the anonymous response that they were given without a care in the world. 'I mean it's best to just leave him alone chances are he'll leave us alone if we ignore him.'

The sound of something caught his attention as Shinji pulled out the Angel alerts. To be honest he has almost forgotten that he had them. Asuka who was next to them looked at her own with annoyance. Eva-02 was still out at sea just a day away from making port. She was going to have to sit this one out. Rei was still recovering from her own injuries and Eva-00 still wasn't ready. Lucy was quick to realize that Shinji was going to have to fight yet again on his own. 'You know hopefully this time it won't end so badly that Yui has to help you.'

Shinji had a mental sigh at this. On one hand, he knew the weight and the outcome that could happen if he did nothing. On the other hand, piloting the Eva just bought so many problems most of which stemming from the fact that he was kind of piloting his mother. 'I don't have any choice in the matter.'

As soon as the three of them got out they saw Misato waiting for them. Inwardly Shinji hoped they didn't have to outrage another N2 mine like last time.

Gendo looked at the recording feed as the Angel landed before them. The creatures appeared almost crustacean-like as its feelers moved around. Two energy whips moved alongside it as it attacked the nearby buildings. Either looking for something or out of frustration. "What is the status of Eva-01?"

It was the only Evangelion they had on hand that could fight. Naturally with what he had learned Gendo was hesitant to send it out to fight but they didn't have any other options. "Everything is ready for launch sir."

"And my son?" Gendo watched as the Angel moved through the city looking for a way underground.

"The three children are already here the Third Child is being fitted for his plugsuit." With that Gendo stood up from his seat.

The man turned to Kozo for a moment before he walked out of the control room. The Sub-Commander knew that Gendo was going to talk to his son. Strangely enough, this seemed rather sudden given how he normally seemed aloof when it came to him. Whatever the case Kozo felt it was a nice change of pace. 'Perhaps he is trying to make up for his broken promise to Yui?'

Unknown to him Gendo was already taken steps for that. However, this time he was going to see his son about his mother. He stopped as he saw him walking out if the locker rooms. There was a moment of hesitation before he called out. "Shinji," His son turned to him as Gendo adjusted his glasses. "You saw her in Eva-01 didn't you?"

He was talking about his mother. For a moment he actually wondered how that was possible. That is until he realized that he was being monitored during the test. Of course, Lucy little stunt would have been found out. "I did."

Words were not spoken between them for a few moments. Each one just stared at the other as the awkward silence filled the room. Shinji turned around figuring it was best to leave. "I-I got an Angel to you know fight."

He stopped as a hand was placed on his shoulder. Turning around he saw that it was his father. Gendo looked at his son before finally finding the words to speak. "When you get back I would like to talk to you about something important for all of our futures."

"Ok." With that Gendo let his son go and turned around to leave. Shinji looked as he walked away as questions formed in his mind. Lucy what do you think is so important that my dad wanted to speak with me.''No time for this right now.' He had to fight an Angel.

As the entry plug inserted itself into Eva-01 Yui reached out to her son. As soon as she did she was met with the A.T. field of her son's soul, of Lucy, making contact with her. "Sorry, but we kind of have an Angel to fight."

Yui knew that she was aware that they were going to fight. That was why she chose to reach out to her son. "I know that Lucifer," She could hear the hatches opening up as everything was getting ready for launch. "I wish to fight with my son so that he doesn't feel alone."

If two souls were able to see each other in the same way two people could they would see Lucy crossing her arms at the woman in front of her. Then a smile forming on her face at this. "First, just call me Lucy and second," Lucy surprised Yui by linking her A.T. field with her own allowing her into her son's mind. "Nice to have you with us mom."

Shinji within the entry plug heard his mother's voice within his head. 'Wait, did you just call me mom?'

A giggle came from Lucy at this. 'Well, yeah technically Shinji is me after all.' Lucy stopped before turning over to Shinji. 'Oh, Shinji our mother wanted to help us fight outside of you know being within the thing we are piloting.'

You know if anyone else knew he had voices in his head they would see him as crazy. Shinji was pretty sure on some level he was. Even so, it was nice to know that he wasn't doing this alone.

Within the command center, Maya looked over the reports with wide eyes. According to the readings, Shinji was almost at perfect synchronization with the Evangelion. 'His sync rate is holding at ninety-eight point six percent!'

Before she could voice this Eva-01 was already launched rocketing towards the surface and appearing out. Within the entry plug Shinji, Lucy, and Yui all collected themselves as they headed out to face the Angel of Adam.

The Angel looked on as it noticed the purple giant before it. For a moment it wondered if it was another of its kind. Perhaps it had come to help it find a way to the progenitor. It immediately reached out with its A.T. field in hopes to talk. "Fellow Adamian are you… wait…" It soon saw that it was wearing unnatural skin and armor. This was one of their creations. "Falsehood!"

The Angel immediately went on the attack tossing out its whips at the Evangelion. Eva-01 ducked out of the way at this as Shinji looked on at the Angel. 'That was way to close thanks, Lucy.'

The Angel smashed into a nearby building a tossed it at them. Yui acting fast brought up the A.T field of their own to block the attack. She heard a comprehensible language yelling at them when she had done so. 'I have no idea what it is saying.'

'It first thought Eva-01 was an Adamian like it, then called us a falsehood, and is now confused when it witnessed us using an A.T. field,' Lucy felt Yui 'looking' at her with confusion as to how she understood that. 'It's speaking the language of the First Ancestral Race it's very likely that it didn't bother with learning any other language.'

Yui was curious as to what Lucy meant by the First Ancestral Race. She knew there was something missing in this puzzle but she never figured it out. However, She pushed that back for asking her later right now they had an Angel to fight. "Shinji there a weapons cache not far from you see if you can get the Angel busy long enough to get something of use."

No sooner as that was said did the Angel decide to tackle Eva-01. In its mind, it didn't matter that this was possibly some horrifying abomination created from metal and flesh of its kind. It wasn't going to stop him from finding his progenitor. Both it and Eva-01 wrestled one another before one of it's whipped grabbed the cable from behind. "Is there the source of your power!?" Eva-01 pushed him off of itself and with it, the sound of a warning caught Shinji's attention.

Over the speakers, Misato's voice came in a panic. "Shinji the umbilical cord has been removed you only have a limited amount of power remaining!" Shinji looked as a timer turned on showing five minutes remaining.

Inwardly he cursed at this before something strange happened. The timer was not going down at all. "What the?"

This didn't go unnoticed as the scanners within Eva-01 wasn't picking up a power decrease. Instead, something was powering the Eva-01. Ritsuko worked over her thoughts on how this could even be possible. '... Could it be?'

They could never understand why any of the Evangelion could develop an S2 Organ. Even Rei, and possibly Asuka, had such organs even if it seemed to do nothing for them. If Eva-01 did develop one then how and why this had happened? Eva-01 and it's pilot not caring about why they still had power got back up.

The Angel looked at the Evangelion before attacking it again. At this rate, it was starting to wonder what sort of thing the strange creatures had made. "Shinji you have a Progressive Knife in your left shoulder pylon!"

"I know," Shinji reached into and pulled out the Prog-knife. The Angel summoned up its A.T. field as did Eva-01. The two pushed against each other's before Eva-01 was caught within the whips around their neck. The heighten synchronization rate began to show as Shinji felt it difficult to breathe properly.

Even with the Angel attempting to close off his ability to breath Shinji continued forward. He drove the knife into the Angel pushing it through the A.T. field and finally into the Angel's core. The creature let out a large scream before finally dying. Shinji didn't have time to celebrate as he blacked out due to the lack of oxygen.

As soon as they had gotten Shinji out of the entry plug Gendo wanted a full medical report delivered to him on his desk along with all the scans from when he was in the Eva. Ritsuko furthermore wanted to take a look at the Evangelions organic makeup. The result of which she handed to him in person. "Are you certain?"

Ritsuko gave him a nod as she couldn't believe it either. From the scans, it turned out that Eva-01 was starting to develop an S2 organ. It helped explain why it was able to seemingly not lose power. The keyword being seemingly. From what could be made out the organ wasn't fully developed and could only be relieved on for temporary allowing the Evangelion Unit to move without any power. "I did a double X-ray scan it's indeed there."

This was an unforeseen, if not fortuitous, circumstance that they had. With an S2 organ there Eva Units didn't need to rely on the base power source. Theoretically, it could allow the Eva to better fight the Angels, among other things that Gendo was certain SEELE would make, while fully developing its powers. "Do you think this had anything to do with my son making contact with Yui?"

As for as reasons go that seemed as likely as anything. The only way to prove it was to see about another pilot making contact with the soul within their Eva. The only one that they could think of that might have a chance was Asuka and Eva-02. "If that is the case we won't be able to prove it without telling another one of our pilots about it."

Gendo paused as he thought about what to do about this. There was one thing he knew for sure. They couldn't risk SEELE getting ahold of this information. "Delete your findings from the network…" He stopped as he realized that there was something else they should do. "Also, erase anything pertaining to Asuka and her connection to Lilith."

"Very well," Ritsuko walked out of the room as Gendo wondered if this made things easier for the scenario or if there was actually a possibility that he could alter it. To what end he didn't know.

He looked up at the clock. In one hour he was going to have to make a report to SEELE. Given how intact the Angel, Shamshel was he could see them demanding it to him immediately. 'Now time for me to just bluff my when talking to them.'

Keel stood on the moon base looking on as decades of planning was beginning to come together. The air in the base was thanks to small biodomes each one containing both plants and small farms for grains, fruits and the like. The base power was thanks to both solar and a nuclear reactor. Finally, everyone working here was under numerous official duties in projects that couldn't be traced.

This level of secrecy was so that no one could discover their plans. Keel looked at the first of Project Revelation was growing on the assembly line. The flesh of the Angel that attacked Tokyo-3 was harvested just for this. Soon, the corpse of the next one would join it followed by the ones after that and so on. "It seems that we can't get it to properly develop an S2 organ sir."

The one problem that each attempt at creating an Evangelion Unit, an artificially grown Angel, had always suffered. It was genetically within each Evangelion the potential to grow one. Yet, none of them ever did so. An S2 organ was what was needed for their plans for the project. "Lucky us we have a mostly contacted S2 organ thanks to NERV."

Perhaps they should try an experiment with it. Unit-04 was almost finished in America with a possible pilot selected for the Evangelion. A few actually thanks to a far better understanding of the connection between Eva and pilot and a few modifications that they had made to the system. 'If it works then we can use the data to figure out how they work and if it fails we still benefit with Gendo losing three new Evangelions.'

Once they had served their purpose NERV was to be disposed of. It was decided by the rest of the council on what they should do with the organization. Perhaps if Gendo proved himself loyal in the end he would be allowed to join them but Keel won't put it past him to betray them. "Sir, one of the space satellites has picked something flying in our system," Keel turned to one of the workers as they turned in the screen behind him as he watched something flying in from past Neptune. "It's not moving in any way that seems coherent with a comet or the like."

The computer attempted to zoom up as they saw something blurry but it was indeed not like any natural body they had seen. Keel just stared at it as his expression couldn't be seen. "Is there anything else you can pick up from it?"

It had to slow down as it drew closer and closer to the star system where the signal it picked up seemed to originate from. Now that he was here he makes out that the device he was given was going nuts. This had to be the star system that they were looking for. 'Judging by the system's size it might take me at must a few weeks to get within the inner system.'

From there he could check the planets to hopefully find if this was indeed Lilith's colony world. From there he would make contact with the inhabitants and see if his aunt had come to this world. 'I wonder what did aunt Lilith choose for her creations to look like?' He thought about the form that his aunt had chosen for her own 'Probably something similar to aunt Lucifer's.'

I think I found this chapter to be something of a challenge. Mostly, because I don't want it to be like the other one. Anyway, Yui fighting with her son/Lucy might become a thing. As for why Eva-02 is developing an S2 organ in this... Well, it's partly due to Lucy being within Shinji when they hit a high synchronization rate. On that note could Asuka and Rei do the same due to housing parts of Lilith's soul? Yes they can.

Oh, and no the thing coming to earth is not a progenitor. That is getting really annoying how many times people say think that.

Cya all next time.
