New Tests

The next morning however, she was ill. The booze had gone right to her head the night before and now, her head was pounding. When he woke, she was gone, however the line of cum from him inside her dribbling along the floor to her en suite bathroom was obvious in the dribble patterns.

She had almost crawled to the toilet and he'd find her laid there, head in the bowl and having puked several times. She'd never got THAT drunk.

Kaji arms sprawling out to each side as he sat up and awaken from his slumber. Looking over to where he figured where Asuka would be laying he tilted his head as his eyes followed her trail when left crossing the room.

"Alright." Pushing himself from the bedding he stands shaking out his legs looking to the window.

"Another morning. All will be right in the world." With a smile on his lips he made his way to the bathroom where he witnessed her getting over her wild evening seeing the world, sharing a drink and warm company.

"Kaji" she smiled softly up at him. "I'm fine" she whispered, "I'm sorry" she added and looked to the bath. "Want to bath together?"

Listening to her he gave a small chuckle. "Sure thing, Asuka. Might need to drink a little more water when you have a hangover." Stepping over Kaji plugs the bath and begins to run some water making sure it was nice and hot.

"I feel like shit" she whispered and laughed softly. "but we had a good night" she grinned. Bathing and dressing in a rather girly dress, she sat at the breakfast table drinking her hot tea and having breakfast. Having made them both breakfast.

"I can't wait to spend more time with you, now we're officially dating, I'm going to be bragging to everyone..." she grinned, the grin never leaving her face since waking up to see him cuddling her.

After the bath Kaji enjoyed the breakfast in which Asuka had prepared for them. Listening to her as she bounced about getting dressed then eating then the inevitable phone call that he knew one of them would get this morning. He had been in the know of this day's event but did not know which day it would be.

However, her dreams of the day would be broken when she got the phone call. Walking over and putting the phone to her ear, she smiled and then nodded to herself then sighed.

Turning to him, she sighed again "We cannot go out and hang out today.." she then grinned again. "Because their letting me pilot my Evangelion today!" she giggled.

"That is good news, that means more development into the Evangelion project." Kaji replied a he took the dishes to the kitchen sink washing them off before stacking them in the rack. "This is also another chance for you to beat your own records and own the day."

He knew from time to time Asuka seemed to struggle in earlier trials when she and her Eva could not synchronise at the levels expected from N.E.R.V.. He knew the pain and anger it had drove Asuka to and the sadness that followed. He could only hope things go well this day for her. She is one important young lady and even his life will depend on her if the Angels arrive.

With the dishes washed off Kaji makes his way back to the bedroom to get dressed. He would return to his apartment before heading into his appointment later today to clean up a bit more. The client today is not alright with his scruffy face demanding him be more proper and prompt.

Grinning as she went with him to the base, she was excited and giddy about being able to fight and train in the EVA for real.

When she got all hooked up and kitted out, she waved at him before getting into the EVA. Breathing in the LCL, she enjoyed this feeling around her more than anything. It was just as enjoyable as being around Kaji, well, until she found the pleasure of sex.

"We have a problem" The tech spoke and signalled the people over, not making too much fuss so the NERV inspectors didn't notice.

"Her sync level has dropped substantially. Last night it was near 78%, now it is down at 42... she can still fight and use the EVA, but it isn't going to react as well as she is used to"

They looked to Kaji, not knowing what happened other than him going out with her to eat.

"Anything you think could have done this?"

"Hmm, I do not know. Asuka has had troubles before. She will get past them with a little time. As for last night I think she enjoyed it all but it might have broken her focus slightly." Kaji replied as his eyes scanned over the monitors. She has done worse in the past when it come synchronisation ratio but when pushed and put under stress she thrived in the heat of conflict. Kaji then smiled softly as he looked to the programmer. "Let us see what she would do in the combat simulation. Kaiju test 003."

The programmer looked to Kaji shaking his head. "Sir, this is not a good idea with the ratio so low."

"We all know the angels will be much worse then a Kaiju. If one attacked right now would she be able to push past her distractions and survive and thus saving mankind." Kaji replied with a confident tone in his voice as he posed like Captain Morgan with his foot on a chair.

"We are here to test the combat capabilities of our pilots and the Eva or should you wish me to explain to Ikari that Germany has pushed the time table back and closer to the danger line?"

"Alright, Kaiju test 003 activated." The crowd at the desk repeat a few times as the simulation begins with Godzilla and Slantern tearing apart the geo-front in Tokyo 3.

"Asuka, keep your focus. Remember you are the woman destined to save mankind from the angels." Kaji called out over the communications system.

Smirking to herself,as she heard him tell her they were going test the combat programs. Grinning. She relaxed out her shoulders and got ready, the link felt a little sluggish but she went forward as usual.

"This one is for you my love!" she called out down the link and ran ahead at the two enemies

The fighting went just as it always did although fighting in the real thing felt perfect. She groaned in pleasure as she fought, it was a very similar to her moan the night before.

She moved around the large underground training area firing the blank weapons in the simulated data passed to her screen however she was moving in real life.

She did pretty well defeating both enemies as usual, and when over, she was skipping the EVA Around. Kneeling down in front of the control tower, its hands grabbed the glass gently.

"Did I do well Kaji?" she grinned through the link, although the EVA's face stared right through the glass.

Kaji watched as the test moved forward and the Eva did as it always did. Asuka and the Evangelion won the battle. Turning to the staff Kaji bowed at the waist showing off slightly before standing tall with his signature smile. "Pressure can do amazing things. Raise a Sync ratio and make diamonds."

Hearing Asuka through the communication Kaji gave a thumbs up, "You performed perfectly as you should have. Good Job, Asuka."

The staff continued to run the data from the simulation as Kaji took his leave of the room heading down to the launch bay where they keep the Evangelion locked down between test. Kaji was still trying to figure some things out about the unit because everything was not adding up in his mind. He knew about the accident at N.E.R.V. in Tokyo 3 with the test type and knew something was a miss with the units.

Leaning against the wall he awaited the victorious red head near the bridge watching as the crew prepared for extraction for when the Eva arrived. Striding into the holding point, The EVA locked into place as she relaxed back into the seat.

Coming out of the plug, she was dripping with LCL and had a towel around her neck and shoulders. She giggled to herself as she saw Kaji and dipped over to him. "Did I kick ass or what?!" she laughed softly and jumped into his arms, leaning up as if to kiss him but she was too short, he would have to lean down and kiss her but there were lots of people around them so it might not be the best thing to do

Catching Asuka in his arms Kaji smiled softly seeing her leaning up for the kiss he leaned down placing a kiss to her lips before he gave his answer. "You did kick a lot of butt. You need to be challenged so you can push yourself." Wrapping his right arm around her waist he gave a thumbs up to the techs before leading Asuka from the bay to the medical facility where she has to do her after combat medical.

Smiling as the people stared at them for a moment before looking busy when they kissed, Asuka was chuckling as she nodded. "I kicked ass and then some!"

"It was easy" she played it off, even though she was clearly having some difficulty during it.

"Indeed you did." Kaji replied as they made way to the medical facility. The Kaiju program was an earlier testing program pitting the pilot against some of the worlds best known monsters and she defeated them with little ease.

She was lead to get her medical, changing out of her plug suit and into the medical gown where she would now spend the next two hours in scanners, being poked by doctors in every orifice and giving blood, urine and stool samples.

Dropping Asuka off at the medical facility Kaji then went outside to enjoy the setting sun. Pondering on the eventful day with all of the highs and lows of the last twenty four hours. For Kaji the new day begun as the sun set and darkness filled the sky until the lights of the cosmos shined down on the world. "I wonder what will come of this new day. The cosmos... we being so small and so unique."
