Evangelion: Angel's Egg
Launch 004: The Attack
"It appears that the cause of Yesterdays catastrophic events were due to riots…"
Fuyutsuki glared at the radio as he shut it off. Leaning back into the driver seat he closed his eyes and sighed. For a minute he was motionless until he finally opened his eyes and looked over to Kaworu who was walking over with bags of food from the fast food place they had parked in.
Shinji was in the back sleeping, his light breathing barely audible. Looking back at the boy, the man was reminded of past events years ago.
Fuyutsuki stood behind the man who sat next to the lab table, a small child lying peacefully on it with cords sticking out of his body that were connected to machines. The man was running his gruff hand through the child's hair. He looked old and weary, his brunette hair unruly and looked like a bird's nest. He looked like he needed weeks worth of shaving and even his clothes were wrinkled and out of place.
"Promise me that you will protect him, Kozo."
He looked down at the man uncertain, "Ikari, what you are saying it idiocy, SEELE will kill you, and then what? What about Shinji?"
The man grinned and stood, "It has to be done, my friend," turning he walked up to the man's side and put a hand on his shoulder, "You know that the 3rd Impact can't come to pass. Lilith must be stopped."
Kozo shook himself out of the memory just as the passenger car slammed shut. Kaworu set the food down in between them and said nothing as he just sat facing forward. The man looked at the silver haired teen and frowned.
"Your union cannot come to pass, 005. We do not yet know the results that will bring."
The boy did not say anything and just looked out the window as Kozo started the car. The man pulled out of the lot and drove out onto the road and into traffic.
"Under no circumstance are you to get close to that boy, understand?"
The only answer he got was silence.

A lone man sat amongst the crowded bundles of people in the grocery store. Many glanced at him and hurried away, uneasy by the smelly presence he held. He was dressed in a tattered trench coat, dressed in a baggy black shirt and dirty jeans and boots. A cap hid his eyes from sight, eyes that looked like a bugs, wide and unsettling. His face was sunken in like he had not eaten in years, the skin a pasty gray color.
The man breathed hard, hands shaking in his lap, his body shivering as if going under withdrawal. He opened his mouth, rotten yellow teeth hanging out as saliva dripping from those disgusting teeth, a green tongue protruding out to lick chapped lips.
"I'm hungry…mother" he said in a hissing voice, which sounded more like a child's whines than a grown man's voice.
That tongue lolled out once more, hanging out like a dog, huffing. A slimy spit fell from it and landing on the floor that sizzled like acid.

"Don't take to long!"
Shinji nodded, not facing the man as they got out of the car. Stretching he looked over to Kaworu was sanding a few feet in front of him. He frowned as he did not have that usually calm, easy going, smile he always had since they had met. It may have only been yesterday but Shinji found that this was not like the boy, like they had known each other longer.
Shutting the car door behind him he walked up to the boy, cringing when the other teen just turned around and led the way into the store. This action, for some reason, hurt Shinji. Looking back at his uncle he saw the man glaring after them, his eyes never leaving Kaworu's back until they were inside.
"Well then, we'll start with the necessities."
Shinji followed Kaworu without a word as they went, pushing the shopping cart as the other grabbed what they needed. As he stood by the other teen as Kaworu got cans of food, Shinji fidgeted, looking uncomfortable.
"Uh, Kaworu-"
"Found it!" exclaimed the silver haired teen with a grin as he picked up a can on the high shelf and put it into the cart before walking off.
Something was wrong, he knew that. Sighing, Shinji lowered his head and clutched his eyes closed. What was he doing caring about someone he had just met? He should be mad at the teen. This all started because of him and those weird things. His friends were dead, he was on the run with this teen and his uncle for reasons that made no sense, and he just went along with it.
Sighing once again, Shinji made to follow the other boy. Looking around, he tried to locate Kaworu and gave a silent curse when he could not spot him. Minutes passed and he was still searching when he bumped into someone with the shopping cart.
He looked up, ready to apologies, only to find the person looking dead at him. He looked homeless and appeared to be a fearful and unsightly sight to behold. Gulping, Shinji back himself away, an icky feeling drew up his spine as his body tensed up. He did not have time to scream before the cart was suddenly flung aside and he was thrown to the floor, the man on top of his and ripping into his shoulder. Shinji screamed trying to rip the man away, only to have him bite deeper.
It was not long before people began to notice and there were screams and shouts everywhere and people fleeing.
"Hey, let go of him!"
Shinji looked up as a few people tried to pry the man off of him, managing to do so after some trouble, only to have the man look at them and breathe into their faces. Shinji watched in horror as they screamed once the yellow putrid colored odor hit their faces and cried out as they screamed, clutching their melting flesh.
"Shinij!"
Shinji turned to find Kaworu running over to him and quickly got to his feet. Many in the store were already running out as fast as they could, others were trying to help the injured get away.
"What is he?" asked Shinji once Kaworu was next to him.
"An Angel...it looks like…Sachiel."
The…thing looked at them before screeching, causing them both to cover their ears as the glass around the both of them shattered. The people still in the store screamed as they clutched their heads and some their ears. Some even bled out from their ears and eyes as they fell dead to the ground.
It stopped and the two boys barely had time to dodge as the humanoid angel charged at them, arms turned into what looked like mantis blades and slicing at them. Kaworu glared at the Angel and summoned his Rapier, charging at the Angel who fought back with rageful thrusts and strikes.
"Shinji, hurry and get outside!" yelled Kaworu.
Shinji looked at the boy and hesitated.
"Go!"
The brunette snapped out of is and ran for the store's entrance. Only to be noticed by Sachiel who quickly darted over to appear in front of the teen who screamed. Shinji shielded himself with his hands only to feel nothing but himself being pushed back and landing on the ground. Looking up he noticed that same shield flashing in front of him.
The Angel attacked him once again, only for Kaworu to intervene and slash at his chest, causing bright orange 'blood' to spurt out. Sachiel screamed as it backed away and attempted attack once again but a gunshot rang out, the bullet piecing it in the side. Shinji looked over to find his uncle walking towards him, still unloading his shotgun into the 'Angel,' which seemed to only hurt it a little bit.
The gun was soon out and Fuyutsuki quickly got to loading it. The thing took that chance to screech out once more, causing them to pause and clutch at their ears in pain, before it ran past Fuyutsuki, slamming him into the ground and fleeing out of the mall.
Shinji stood and ran over to his uncle, "Are you okay, uncle?" he asked.
The man moaned and shook himself before sitting up, "I'm too old for this" he grumbled as he got back to reloading his gun.
"I don't' get it, what is an Angel?" asked Shinji.
"Angels are the creations of Adam, the first Angel, tainted by Lilith" said Fuyutsuki.
"The only way that can be killed by Eva, regular weapons will slow that down, however" said Kaworu as she lifted up his sword and flicked the orange blood off of the blade.
Shinji looked at the slim sword.
"You have one as well Shinji" said Kaworu.
"Huh?"
"Your Eva, a manifestation of your soul. It will take a different shape than Kaworu's, however. They hold the power to destroy not only the Angels but Lilith as well."
"I don't understand, how is it that I have one?"
"Because…" Fuyutsuki cocked the gun, "You carry the Geostigma" he said.
"Geostigma, you mean the black blotches, but-?"
"For some reason, the Geostigma for you heal quickly, and you are left with powers no human can possess. We call you carriers "Seeds," Kaworu here is the fifth among you. You are the Third."
Shinji began to understand, "That's why you called him 005…."
Fuyutsuki nodded and stood, "Your powers will awaken soon, until then stay close to Kaworu. We need to put that thing down. Is your wound okay?"
Shinji had forgotten that the man had bitten him! Quickly ripping his torn shirt from his shoulder he was shocked to there was…no wound?
"But…how?"
"The benefits of being a "Seed"" said Fuyutsuki as he reached out to inspect it before nodding a deeming it okay.
For some reason, Shinji could swear he heard a hint of loathing in the man's voice.
"Let's go!"
Shinji and Kaworu nodded and followed the man outside where people were gathering and screaming about the events that happened inside. Police were already arriving with paramedics. They snuck by and quickly got to the car. Shinji could see that there were explosions happening in the city and guessed that the thing had gotten far.
They sped out of the parking lot soon after, Shinji barely having time to buckle up.
"Make a right!" yelled Kaworu, to which Fuyutsuki made a sharp right turn, nearly throwing Shinji out of the window.
"Shinji, buckle up, now!"
Shinji cursed, finding it hard to do so with a certain crazy someone with road rage. Sitting down properly, he got his seat belt buckle in time to avoid crashing out of the car as they took a sharp left turn.
"Keep going straight, we're almost there!"
Shinji was confused as to how Kaworu would know where to find this thing but he had to guess that it was just another one of their abilities. He himself could feel something telling him to keep going straight-
"STOP!" he cried out.
Fuyutsuki slammed on the brakes, the car coming to a screeching halt just as the building two blocks down exploded.
They all looked up just as Sachiel fell to the ground in front of them looking around as if trying to find something. They got out of the car and Fuyutsuki opened fire. The Angel screeched out as the bullets hit it and it looked at them with dead buggy eyes, yellow putrid saliva rolling off of its lips.
Kaworu charged managing to lop off an arm before he was swatted away by the other mantis bladed arm, crashing into the ground. Fuyutsuki stopped to reload while Kaworu stood up without a care, spitting out-
"Orange blood" mumbled Shinji in shock.
The silver haired boy took a pause to look at the Angel before he ran at it again, holding out a hand and slamming it into the things chest, his fingers clutching around something in the baggy clothes of its humanoid body.
"Ashes to ashes" said the boy before a bright light burst from his palm coating Sachiel who screeched in pain as if was blown away. And when the light settled there was nothing but dust remaining.
Shinji looked to where the thing had been and then at Kaworu who was banishing his sword. His uncle looked at the spot where Sachiel was at and sighed.
"It's over, let's go" said the old man.
Before he could turn to get back into the car, however, there was a sound of clapping and giggling from above them.
"Brava, Brava!" shouted a female voice.
The three looked up to see a girl standing on the top of the building over head. She was wearing a akin tight pink suit, heels built into it. Her long brunette hair was tied back into a ponytail with only a few strands out to frame her face. A set on her nose were a pair of glasses in front of stunning, sinister emerald jewels.
"I must say, that was quite the show!"
Kaworu frowned, "004."
The girl smirked and jumped off the building, causing Shinji to gasp. But he was quickly surprised when she seemed to just float down like he and Kaworu had done at the tracks, landing in a kneeling position.
She stood and dusted herself off, "It's nice to see you again, 005 and you to Dr. Fuyutsuki."
Shinji looked at her confused, "Dr.?"
He flinched when her sharp eyes turned to him. She grinned, "003, Shinji Ikari. Nice to meet you at last."
Shinji was about to say something when Fuyutsuki got in front of him, holding up his Shotgun.
The girl looked at the old man and chuckled in disbelief before cackling outright in glee. Shinji looked at her as if waiting to see her die from the laughter as it seemed she could not stop.
"Why are you here, Mari Makinami Illustrious!?" demanded Fuyutsuki.
The girl stopped and then seemed to sag forward, her gaze dead center on the man. Shinji shivered as dead, hollowed eyes stared their way.
"Why…I'm here…" she smirked, holding out her hand. A bright light engulfed it and a crossbow appeared in her hands, "as your executioner!"
Arrows of light were shot at them and Shinji yelped as he was tackled to the ground by the old man, the car going up in flames a second later. Fuyutsuki got up and was ready to fire when he was gasped as the girl was suddenly in front of them, the gun against her chest. She smirked and held up the cross bow only to be blown away as Fuyutsuki fired. Shinji was shocked to see his Uncle fire on the girl was soon shocked to see the orange blood spray out of her chest and then the hole healing completely.
"That was…" the girl looked down at her chest and then looked up with a sadistic grin, "mind blowing."
She held up her weapon and fired, Fuyutsuki grabbing Shinji and rolling to the right before ushering him up and they ran to dodge the arrows. Kaworu then appeared at the girl's side, his sword in hand again and attacked, Mari dodging his every attempt to hit her. Another cross bow appeared in her other hand and she fired it at the silver haired boy who jumped away. She held up the other and, without looking, fired on Fuyutsuki and Shinji, managing to catch the old guy in the leg.
Shinji cried out as the man fell to his knees with a cry of pain and knelt to try and get him up. The man grunted in pain as Shinji tried to pick him up, but every attempt ended in the man falling back down. After the fourth attempt, Fuyutsuki pushed Shinji away and turned on Mari who was approaching them, laughing manically. He cocked the Shotgun and fired, managing to hit her clear in the kneecap, causing her to fall face flat on the concrete.
She cried out in agonizing pain, letting go of a crossbow to clutch her wounded leg. Mari gazed down at it and gasped at all the oozing orange liquid sprouting from nothing but a stub, half of her leg mere feet from the rest of her body. Growling her expression became one of furry before she turned to the old man who was preparing another shot.
"You Bastard!"
Fuyutsuki grunted, clenching his teeth as he tried to focus, his body weary from even the shot in the leg.
"Kaworu, hurry and take him!" he cried out.
Mari was struggling to her feet, screaming through the pain as feral eyes were set on the old man target.
Shinji looked at the man then at the girl, "No, I'm not leaving you!" he yelled, trying to pick the man up again, but he was pushed back by his free hand.
"Go!"
Kaworu appeared at Shinji's side and grabbed his hand before fleeing down the street, Shinji protesting the whole way. Fuyutsuki tuned his head their way and grinned before turning back only to gasp in horror as green eyes flashed mere inches from his own brown ones.
Chapter 4 is at last here! Sorry it took so long! Poor Fuyutsuki, and I wonder what Shinji and Kaworu will do now? Thanks for reading and please Review!
Sayonara!
