I DON'T OWN ANYTHING.
"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;" -Romans 1:18
Chapter Eight: Wrath of God.
"Shinji, engage the target." Gendo spite the warning from Doctor Serizawa and even his Vice-Commander has gave him a wary look. In Ikari's mind, Godzilla was simply a large animal that needed to be taken down, but that describes how mankind felt about the daikaiju before.
In that second, however, Shinji couldn't respond as the gigantic beast lunges at Unit-01. Out of instinct, Shinji activates Unit-01's AT Field, stopping Godzilla in his tracks. But it didn't take long for the Third Child to realize his AT Field was crumbling apart.
"AT Field is eroding!" Makoto calls out.
"How?" Commander Ikari questions.
"It must be the amount of radiation his body is emitting. It's the equivalent of the same kind of energy the EVAs use to counter an Angel's field." Maya explains as she herself couldn't believe an animal can easily go through one of the most powerful forces known to man.
"Impossible, this is a mere dinosaur!" Gendo curses himself as he couldn't believe a reptile, one of the most primitive forms of life in his eyes, can do such a feat.
Back on the battlefield, Shinji needed a way to avoid the oncoming attack and the only thing he can do is avoid the monster's attacks. And in a split second he leapt out of the way before Godzilla could take a bite out of the EVA.
"Shinji watch out!" Rei calls to him, with a shocking amount of fear in her voice.
"Huh?!" Shinji simply states as suddenly he could see Godzilla's tail in front of him before the limp smack down on the EVA. The immense weight of the tail pins the mecha unto the ground.
"Rei stand down!" Gendo orders with such a tone that makes the blue haired girl stop.
"Ikari, Shinji is outmatched, I suggest we order Shinji to save the Second Child and have the military distract the creature until we can formulate a better plan." Fuyutsuki suggests, as he now believes Serizawa's warning.
"The EVA can kill Godzilla, either the Third Child tries harder or we activate the Dummy Plug." Gendo says coldly.
'Dummy Plug?' Serizawa overhears Gendo, something he hasn't heard when he was given the "needed info" of NERV.
"Get...off...of...Me!" Shinji yells as he pushes the tail of the the EVA with all his willpower and the EVA's strength with success.
"Shinji, there's a Pallet Rifle sation next to you, use it to take out the target." Makoto informs Shinji.
"Got it!" Shinji acknowledges as he runs to the raised weapon station and grabs the rifle.
"Now fire!" Gendo orders.
Shinji complies as he fires unto the monster. But once the smoke clears, he could see the creature standing with no harm whatsoever, and was visibly very angry.
"Oh sh- Shinji was about to say before Godzilla swipes Unit-01 with his massive claws, breaking the AT Field apart and taking a good chunk out of the EVAs arm with Shinji yelling in pain from the phantom pain.
"It didn't even flinch from that attack?!" Maya says in fear.
"And all we did is piss it off." Aoba says cynically.
"It doesn't matter, Godzilla's regenerative abilities heals him faster than we can wound him." Serizawa says darkly as he knows too well how mighty the kaiju truly is.
"Shinji..." Rei whispers in fear, she is afraid to loose the closest person in her life.
"I can't beat this thing..." Shinji huffs as he realized he's outgunned in this fight, he then turns to see the undamaged Entry Plug in the now Angel free Unit-03 "...but I can save Asuka."
With no other way to win but to run away from Godzilla, Shinji punches Godzilla in the face so he can dash to Asuka's plug and retreat.
"Shinji I ordered you to kill Godzilla. The Second Child's life is forfeit!" Gendo orders his son.
"Like hell, Asuka is more important!" Shinji snaps back as he runs to save Asuka, but as if time slows down, Unit-01 was hit by a beam of blue energy, melting a good portion of the EVA's side.
"AAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH!" Shinji screams in pain as the EVA falls on the ground and was then pinned again, this time by Godzilla's foot as the kaiju looks mercilessly.
To Godzilla, this "false angel" was not like the other mechanical behemoths, this one smelled dangerous and he knew he had to destroy it. This machine was a sin against nature and if destroying this thing represent mankind's punishment, so be it.
"Shinji, why didn't you fight Godzilla?" Gendo asks coldly.
"Ikari, Shinji could die!" Serizawa cuts in as he knows Shinji's life is in mortal danger.
"Enough Serizawa, one more word from you and I'll send you to the brig!" Gendo threatens Serizawa.
"Because...Asuka is still in there...I can't..." Shinji struggles to answer as he could feel Godzilla immense weight crush him like a bug.
"Listen, Godzilla is the primary target." Gendo demands of his son.
"I can't...I can't leav her in there!" Shinji argues against his father.
"Then you're going to die!" Gendo says as its obvious he's loosing his cool.
"Fine! I rather die then leave her!' Shinji yells defiantly.
"No matter, sever the pilot's synchronization with Unit-01 now!" Gendo orders the tech staff.
"Commander!?" Fuyutsuki asks in shock, know what Ikari is planning.
"Sever it entirely?!" Maya asks in confusion.
"Correct, switch all controls to the Dummy System." Gendo continues his orders.
"But sir, we need Doctor Akagi's instructions, and the system it's not ready." Maya warns her commander.
"It would be more use then the current pilot! Now do it!" Commander Ikari says with a oure tyrannical tone.
"Yes...sir." Maya says with fear and submission.
"Ikari...no matter what you do, nothing can stop Godzilla! Are you truly arrogant enough to risk your son's life to prove you can defeat anything?!" Serizawa demands of Ikari as he had enough of the man, he wonders why the kind hearted Yui ever married a monster in human skin.
"I've had enough! Once this mission is over, you will be arrested for treason and relieved of duty!" Gendo growls as he had enough of the Serizawa's warnings.
"So that's how it is Rokubungi?" Serizawa growls as he turns to the screen showing the battle.
Back with Shinji, he suddenly couldn't feel the phantom pain as the notices his plug turns dark, before becoming an evil red. Confused, Shinji hears a bizzare mechanical hum as a strange machine appears above him as it locks Shinji's hands on the controls and blocks his vision.
"What is this?! What's going on?!" Shinji demands as his surroundings become a mixture of black and red "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING DAD!"
"System switchover successfully completed." Maya updates the Commander.
"Very good, release the system..." Gendo orders coldly "...commence attack."
It was then Unit-01's eyes become pure red and its mechanical jaws open as it growls in an animalistic fury. It then tries to push Godzilla with all it's might...but suddenly Godzilla stomps on it again with enough force to imbed the Eva in the very earth, trapping. It was then Godzilla's dorsal fins begin to glow
"What's happening?!" Gendo demands.
"The Dummy Plug is trying, but Godzilla is too strong!" Maya calls as even to Dummy Plug is too weak for Godzilla.
"There's no need to wonder where a god is..." Serizawa whispers darkly "...because he's here, and he's fresh out of mercy."
"S-Shinji..." Rei stutters as despite no one noticing, small tears of fear appear in her eyes.
In that second, Godzilla's body flashes in a quick blue light before blue bolts of energy to travel from Godzilla and into the Eva, shutting Unit-01 completely. This left Shinji in the dark and only the sound of the outside world to hear.
"Report?!" Gendo growls.
"Godzilla released some kind of nuclear pulse, all the EVA's power sources are shut down!" Maya answers in shock.
Meanwhile unknown to everyone, Asuka wakes up in Unit-03's Entry Plug as it activates. She could see the world now and vaguely remembers what happened. There was an angel, and an explosion...and Godzilla. She looks to see Godzilla crushing Unit-01.
"Kill you..." Asuka growls as she commands Unit-03 to rise and lunge at the kaiju "KILL YOU!"
CRUNCH
Unfortunately for Asuka, Godzilla already heard the black EVA rising and since Unit-01 stopped attacking, it was time to finish off Unit-03 as he had the EVA's neck in his jaws. Then slams Unit-03 unto the EVA.
Back at HQ, May covers her eyes from the upcoming mauling while everyone else, including Gendo watch in horror as Gpdzilla bites, rips, and claw his way on the defeated EVA. Serizawa and Rei were the only ones not to look as they the turn away from the bloodbath.
As Godzilla continues, sending organs, limbs, and blood across the field, Shinji could only hear the sickening sounds and the monster's roar. He now knows Godzilla turned his attention to Asuka with full fury.
"Please stop..." Shinji worthlessly begged the ancient reptile to stop "Stop stop stop stop stop stop stop..."
After Godzilla crushes the EVA's head into a blood pulp, he realizes he has a metal cylinder in his jaws, but before he could crush it, she smelled that a human was inside. Seeing no point to kill the human and seeing that mecha is nothing but blood and flesh, he drops the Enry plug, but it fell very hard on the ground.
"What's happening?" Shinji whispers as he could only hear Godzilla's breathing, he knew that it was over, Godzilla had won.
The same could be said about the rest of the NERV staff: Maya was terrified of the monster, Aoba sickened by the animalist carnage, Makoto dumbstruck from their failure, Fuyutsuki now believing Serizawa was the one in the right, Gendo gritting his teeth as he had lost, Rei walking away from the command center as she cried for the first time in her life, and Serizawa only to be reminded of that humans are not the real dominant life forms, not any more.
Seeing his battle is over, Godzilla sees the humans' war machine defeated, another failed attempt to kill him. He then roars in victory that could shake the heavens.
SKKKKREEEEEEOOOOONNNNNKKKKKK
