Neon Genesis Z

Genesis: 6

Encounter

Trunks awoke to the smell of breakfast. Smelt pretty good, he was impressed with Shinji's ability to cook.

'He sure has some cooking talent' Trunks said to himself.

Trunks got dressed and walked into the kitchen. At the table was Misato and Asuka.

"Morning everyone" Trunks said.

"Good morning Trunks, did you sleep well?" Misato replied.

"I did" Trunks said with a smile.

He notice Misatio dressed for a wedding and Asuka all dressed up too.

"So what is the occasion?" Trunks asked.

"Well Misato is going to a friends wedding, and I'm off to a date." Asuka said.

"A date?" Trunks said out loud. Asuka just laughed

"Yes Trunks a date you know, a girl and guy go out have some fun." Trunks red a little

"I understand, I just never been on one, I didn't know you had a boyfriend." Trunks said.

Misato and Asuka just blinked hard.

'Poor kid never been on a date, maybe if I was a little younger..WHAT THE HELL AM I THINKING I'M TOO OLD FOR HIM!' Misato said to herself.

Asuka felt bad for Trunks must been hard to date with all what is going on in his life.

"Well I don't have a boyfriend, it's just some med student that Hikari's older sister wanted me to double date with, I'm not even that interested." Asuka said.

"Oh" replied Trunks.

'In a strange way I rather it be you Trunks that I was going out on a date with' Asuka said to herself.

Meanwhile Shinji was cooking, his thoughts were in another place. Today he must see his father. Gendo Ikari, Commander of NERV, father, bastard. These thoughts going through Shinji's mind.

'What do I say to him? What will he say to me, will we say anything?' These questions went through Shinji's head.

But he was glad that Trunks was going to accompany him today so he didn't have to go alone. Shinji placed breakfast on the table. Everyone ate in silence.

After breakfast Trunks helped Shinji clean up the table and do the dishes. Shinji got ready to go as so everyone else. Everyone left to the destinations. Shinji choose to walk to the grave site, and Trunks followed. Trunks noticing Shinji somber mood decided to speak up.

"Shinji feeling alright?" Trunks asked.

"Yea I will be fine, just I have to see my father today and I don't know what to say to him." Shinji replied.

Trunks thought about it, it was strange for him to meet his father Vegeta for the first time too. Trunks growing up always thought what he would say to his father if he ever meant him.

"I understand Shinji when I went back in time, I meant my father for the first time in 16 years, I didn't know what to say to him either, at the time we had to destroy the Androids and Cell, so a lot was going on. But I manage to have a conversation with him, I told him where I came from, my father told me my family history and how glorious it was to die in combat." Trunks said.

"Really?" Shinji asked.

"Yea even when we trained together I didn't know what really to say to him, I was just glad to be in his presence." Trunks replied.

"Sounds like you and father got along in your short amount of time being around him, I don't' think that me or my father will be ever like that" Shinji said sadly.

The two got to the graveyard.

Shinji and Trunks arrived first no one was around.

"Umm where is your father" Trunks asked.

Once he said that a NERV Helijet landed outside of the graveyard. When it landed a man walk out of the door and the helijet took off. The man walked up to the two boys had no expression on his face, just a cold look. Trunks wasn't really impressed with this guy, he also felt another presence about him, but couldn't pinpoint what.

Gendo walked towards the two boys. He noticed Trunks, didn't know who he was or even why he was there, but he was standing next to Shinji.

'I see my son made friends with the pilot of the wreckage this might be easier then I thought' Gendo thought to himself.

Gendo got up to the two boys. He look at them both.

"Pilot Ikari, I brought some flowers to place at her grave site please set them for me." Gendo said.

Shinji took the flowers and set at a gravestone, all that was on the stone was

"Yui Ikari 1978-2004"

Trunks backed away and let Gendo and Shinji have there moment. Gendo turned his attention to Trunks he notice that boy didn't say anything nor got nervous around his presence. Section 2 had been keeping tabs on Trunks, Gendo knew about his past.

(AN: Gendo knows everything, not hard to do with state of the art surveillance)

Of course Gendo has his own agenda and felt the boy was best suited for a "medical exam". Trunks notice that Gendo was looking at him and decided to speak up.

"Is there something you want to say to me?" Trunks asked.

Shinji was shocked at the boldness of Trunks. Gendo was a little taken back too. Gendo spoke

"Trunks, I know about you already no need to play the innocent with me, my son is under my protection and you are under arrest." Gendo said.

"For what? I have not done nothing wrong." Trunks replied.

When Trunks said that, NERV soldiers and helijets appeared.

"Don't make this hard on yourself boy, you are an alien that is your crime, for that you will be taken to NERV for examination." Gendo said.

Trunks felt betrayed,

'Was this meeting really for Shinji's dead mother or just to get me arrested.'

"Shinji how could you betray me, I thought we were friends, I never meant harm to you or your world, I just wanted to get home to my world." Trunks said.

Shinji didn't know what to say he got mad with his father for using him to get to Trunks.

"No Trunks, it isn't like that, I didn't betray you, my father has special guards that watch us, we didn't think they would be spying on ever word we said, I'm sorry" Shinji said.

Trunks looked in Shinji's eyes, those eyes were telling the truth.

"Shinji I believe you, you have been honest from day one, I will remember that, I will go with your father. I don't mean to cause you or anyone harm" Trunks said.

Trunks also thought 'Hey it isn't like they can hurt me.'

Shinji looked at Trunks for a second. Trunks look so confident. Shinji thought deeply how his father treated him and used him.

'I must not run away, I must not RUN!' Shinji thought to himself.

Shinji broke free from his father grasp and stood infront of Trunks.

"Father, if you want him so bad you going to have go through me first, even if you have to kill me. You took a lot of things from me, but you are not taking my friend, even if he is an "alien" so to speak. If your spy's told you correctly you understand he just wants to go home, he has no business here. Just give him his time machine and let him be on his way." Shinji yelled out.

Gendo shocked at his son's actions and yet he knew Shinji was speaking the truth, but Gendo had his orders from Seele, he had to bring the boy in.

"Pilot, move or be moved, I will have the guard forcefully move you." Gendo said.

"No" Shinji said.

"Guards remove the third child" Gendo said.

Trunks shock that Shinji is taking up for him, he knew this is something Shinji must do. Trunks didn't want to hurt the guards. As the move closer Trunks took a defensive position.

"Shinji when the I say go, you run back to Misato's." Trunks said.

Shinji looked at his friend and nodded.

"GO!" Trunks yelled.

Shinji took off running, one of the guards tried to grab him, but Trunks was quick and punched the guard in the stomach. The guard dropped to the ground winching in pain. The other guards went to jump Trunks. Trunks using his basic skills fought the guards off. Gendo in shock that this boy is taking on 20 soliders on his own.

'I might have to rethink my plans, for now the boy isn't going anywhere.' Gendo said to himself.

Gendo walked towards the Helijet that dropped him off. He turn and saw Trunks finishing with the last guard. Trunks stood there holding the solider by his collar, the soldier was humped over himself. Gendo's and Trunks eyes meant, they both knew this wasn't over.

"Isn't the big cheese going to give a shot to arrest me?" Trunks said with a grin.

Gendo had no expression on his face. "This isn't over … boy."

With that said he walked on to the Helijet.

In the window Rei was watching the young boy fight, she didn't know what to feel, but she felt something from this boy. She quick composed herself when the commander sat down. "Pilot to headquarters" Gendo said. "Hai" replied the pilot. Trunks stood there in the mist of the hurt men as he saw the Helijet take off.

'No it isn't over Commander'

With that Trunks headed Misato's apartment……
