Now, this rpg will progress in a Kill Adam way. Meaning a chapter-based system. Basically if a chapter has three people in it, the chapter will end after three posts. [B][U]Movement 1: Earth Eternal "Terra Eternus"[/U] Characters:[/B] Shinji Ikari, Ayato Kamina, Alexander Crowne [B]Settings:[/B] Kamina house, Narai High School, Terra HQ. [B]Summary:[/B] Its been only three days since the incident involving the appearence of the Evangelion Unit 01, Sachiel, and the reappearence of the RahXephon. During this time of peace Shinji is getting settled in with life at Ayato and Haruka's house. Will another angel appear? Sitting back from his painting, Ayato looked back towards the kitchen which at the moment was occupied by Haruka and Shinji. ?Honestly Shinji, I don?t think I?ve ever gotten the kitchen this organized.? Ayato chuckled at the comment. Haruka was right, the kitchen hadn?t been so organized until Shinji had come to live with them. It had only been three days since the attack by the angel that Shinji referred to as Sachiel. From what he?d gotten out of Shinji there were seventeen in his world but two of them weren?t threats now. Adam had not caused First Impact but Lilith was in space in some sort of null zone that Terra?s long range satellites and telescopes couldn?t penetrate fully. They managed to get a blurry figure and that was it. ?Really Mrs. Kamina its no problem. I used to do this kind of stuff at Misato?s,? Shinji paused for a moment as if reminiscing of this Misato. ?Her apartment was an absolute mess when I showed up, and you know how long it took me to clean it up??? Haruka chuckled as she grabbed some formula for Quon, ?No, how long did it take??? She asked playfully. ?TWO DAYS!! CAN YOU BELIEVE SOMEONE WITH AN APARTMENT THAT MESSY!?!?? Shinji exclaimed, but as soon as he did he realized that he was a little loud and noticed Ayato smiling at the whole commotion. ?Wah! Sorry Mr. Kamina! I didn?t know I?d distracted you! I?m sorry.? Shinji said bowing in apology but Ayato chuckled harder and soon found himself falling backwards onto his back. Repressing herself from laughing out loud Haruka snorted a little. ?Don?t? worry about it Shinji, I?m almost finished. Call us Haruka and Ayato, goof ball.? Shinji blushed a little, ?But I?m just so used to formalities?? Ayato stood up and walked into the kitchen and reached into the fridge for the pitcher of iced tea Haruka had made earlier. ?If you?re so used to formalities then why do you keep calling that girl by her first name??? Again Shinji blushed, ?Its just that she and I were friends, but..? Ayato smiled again and placed his right hand on Shinji?s forehead, ?We?re your friends too. Just call us by our first names.? Shinji nodded. Later that night While Haruka and Ayato were asleep Shinji sat at his window and stared out towards the ocean. His mind drifted back to Tokyo 3 and how bad it had looked after the Government had attacked NERV and caused so much damage. The only good thing about it was that his father had been arrested and was facing execution, but how was that good?? Shinji shook his head and looked towards the man-made island of Kanai. It truly was a sight to behold. The technology of his home was still primitive compared to this, though they?d created the Evangelions, so they weren?t too behind. Smiling a little, Shinji flopped into his bed and slept. As this was happening, Ayato was tossing in bed until he awoke in a slight sweat. Finally deciding he couldn?t take it anymore he climbed out of bed and entered the bathroom he and Haruka shared. Looking in the mirror he ran his fingers over his stomach where a birthmark/tattoo had been before he?d tuned the world. Stripping off his clothes he climbed into a cold shower and tried to relax however something in the back of his mind kept bugging him and he knew it was something that shouldn?t be taken lightly, but what it was exactly was what was pissing him off the most. After he?d finished in the shower he climbed out of the shower and put on some shorts and a sleeveless t-shirt and stepped outside onto the front porch to watch the lighthouse?s light do its usual sweep. It was very peaceful, especially with the water crashing gently against the cliffs. Yawning he found himself tired and fell asleep on the porch. The morning was brought to Ayato in the form of Buuchii licking his face. Groaning Ayato walked into the kitchen and slumped down at the table, ?Uh-uh buddy. You have to get dressed remember? Your job? You have to be at school today and you?re taking Shinji as well.? Ayato in a basic haze nodded and stalked back towards the bedroom only to catch a glimpse of Shinji walking out of the regular bathroom, a towel wrapped around him. ?Good morning Ayato!? Shinji said with a smile. Ayato replied with a nod and practically dragged himself up the stairs. When he reached the bed room Ayato once again took a shower, but after this one he was awake and dressed in his button up shirt with a maroon tie and dark brown pants on. As he walked down the stairs he heard Haruka. ?Ayato hurry up its 7:50!!? Realizing that he didn?t? want Shinji to be late, Ayato ran down the rest of the stairs, grabbed his briefcase, swiped a piece of toast, kissed both Haruka and Quon bye, and ran to the car. As they were driving towards the school Ayato noticed that Shinji seemed kind of down. ?Don?t worry Shinji, the kids in the school are really great. We have an exchange student from America too, he?s a nice kid.? Shinji smiled a little bit but he looked absolutely pale. Once he?d stopped the car. Ayato helped Shinji out just because the poor kid looked like he was about to puke. When they walked in, the principle was there to greet both of them, ?Mr. Kamina, its good to see you. Who?s this young man??? Ayato quickly explained everything and said that Kunugi had already sent the paperwork and it would be in the principle?s e-mail. ?Shinji, you do have your schedule right?? Shinji nodded and Ayato told him to have some fun and make some friends and he?d make sure to check on him during art class. The day had gone by rather easily and then the fifth period came and that was the class Ayato had with Shinji. With this he introduced Shinji and the exchange student Alexander Crowne to the class, both were welcomed rather happily. A lot of people had questions for Shinji, but Alexander seemed to get along quite well. The lesson went very well. The class was working on their quarter project which was to do any kind of art, be it have a model or abstract completely. All the projects seemed to be going well. Shinji though seemed confused with what to do and just as Ayato was about to ask him what was wrong, the emergency sirens blared and Ayato?s cell phone went off. It was Terra HQ phoning him. The message read "Another Angel has appeared. Get yourself and Shinji here ASAP!" As soon as he put the phone away he cleared his throat, "All right class I need you to put your stuff away and get into the emergency shelter. Shinji, you are to come with me." Shinji looked a little miffed but followed. When they were out to the car Ayato explained the situation. "What?! Does that mean I'll have to fight?!" Ayato nodded. "Shinji, you're not piloting the Unit 01 though, you'll be piloting a Vermillion. Its a mecha that's about the size of the RahXephon and is equipped with a Rail Gun which also houses a Wave Optical cannon which is extremely powerful." Shinji nodded as they pulled into the underground garage and ran for the moving walkway that went to the Vermillion launch bay. As they got there Elvy was already there to greet them. "Okay Shinji, I'm gonna follow you out in my unit. Ayato will join up with us soon in the RahXephon." Shinji nodded again as he went to the locker room to suit up. Ayato ran back towards the moving walkway which would split off to the Naria shrine. While he was changing into his pilot suit Ayato wondered if Shinji would be able to pilot a Vermillion. As he finished zipping the white vest up Ayato knew he'd find out soon enough and entered the RahXephon. Once he was inside he opened up a com channel to the two Vermillions and to the Terra bridge. "This is Ayato, I'm launching in the RahXephon to engage the enemy!" With that the RahXephon shot out of the water and was soon flying in the air. [/SIZE] Okay, I forgot to mention this. Any questions you have please feel free to post in the underground thread as well. Its under the same name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retribution Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 [SIZE=1][b]OOC: It's been so long since I've RPed. *oils joints* Here we go!IC: [CENTER][SIZE=4]TERRA ETERNUS[/SIZE][/CENTER] Japan was foreign, strange, unwelcoming, xenophobic. He could tell he wasn't wanted, as soon as he stepped onto Japanese soil. An American, someone who needed to leave. They whispered about him as he strode through the terminal, invisibly spat at his feet. Alexander wanted to leave.[/b] [i]I was sent here to further my education. So I will. These people will not hold me back. But I don't like it here.[/i] [b]On the car ride home, his hosts introduced themselves in a less formal manner than when they were at the airport. It seemed that manners were paramount in Japan, and that humbility was prized. He had both. "I am Kayane, and this is my wife, Michi. Our family name is Yutsuko, but that is a formality. For now, please just address us by our first names," They gave him a smile through the rear view mirror. The two were the first friendly faces he had seen in his stay of Japan so far. "As you wish. If I seem callous or rude, I sincerely apologize ahead of time. I am new to your way of life; please understand," he replied quietly. He didn't feel much for talking, but he wanted to make a good first impression. "Oh! Quite alright! Make yourself at home." The car shut off, and Alex was left staring at the house that would be home for the next few months. It was small, efficient looking, yet clean and fresh. He was used to such places, living in an apartment all his life. He got out, took his bags to his room, and pulled out the futon to go to sleep. It was a rich navy blue, but was firm.[/b] [i]Good enough for now. Tommorow's the big day.[/i] [b]He arose early in the morning, well before school started. He needed an early start, to get acclimated to life. After rising, he put away the futon, then carefully dressed himself. [i]I need to look good and presentable... everything else is working against me.[/i] Once he was all ready for the day, he made himself as well has his 'family' a traditional Japanese breakfast. It was one he had read once five years back, and hadn't heard of since. He smiled at himself as he miraculously remembered it. He left the food on the table, not eating until his family woke up, and walked out into the stone garden outside. It was a small patch of land, and he mentally noted it to be a quiet place to sit for a while; something he prized. After standing for a few minutes, his hosts came in, thanking him for the meal and ate it, making small talk at the table. He left on foot with plenty of time to walk to the school nearby. Armed with his schedule and his mediocre gasp on Japanese, he set off with the task of understanding the language -- the subject matter itself would be easy to him. The day passed slowly, as he fought to understand every word being pour forth from the fluent mouths of the native speakers every second. He hated it. Finally, a class he could easily understand without too much instruction arrived. Art. At the beginning of class, he was introduced as "The exchange student from [i]America[/i]." The class gave him a simple "Welcome to Japan, Mr. Crowne." They stumbled on his name, and soon adapted "Alexander" to "Arekusu." Then the class period started. From what he gathered, their quarter project was to create some grand piece of art, any genre. He smiled gently, wanting to make a good impression, and pulled out a small notepad and pencil, slowly sketching the beginning to an organic machine blueprint, and hoped it would pass off as art. The sketch seemed to catch the eye of another exchange student, Shinji. "Is that an Evangelion?" he started off the conversation in a low tone, unsure of himself and if he had said the right thing to Alexander. "What's an Evangelion? For now, it's an organic-based machine, with cells aided by nanomachines to keep the structure 'growing,' if you follow." Shinji nodded, sure of himself. He was obviously well versed in such matters. Alexander liked him for that reason alone. An intellectual equal. "I know what you mean. I've studied this stuff before. Or things similar, I should say." The conversation trailed off into a highly technical conversation, and Alexander was having trouble holding his ground. He was over his head, only read about such things. Shinji had a very adept grasp on mechanical design. But the conversation was cut short by a shocking announcement. "All students, please enter the Emergency Shelters immediately!" Shinji went the other way, with another person Alexander didn't have a good look at. Instintively following the two, he fought against the current of people, eventually getting outside of the school. His eyes were greeted with the most improbable thing he had ever seen in his life. A large, walking mech. It looked alien, with laser-whip arms and a deformed looking head, and slightly frightened him.[/b] [i]Similar to my drawing! Very odd, but I was thinking it would look something strange like that. Was it even machine?[/i] [b]The thoughts raced, forcing him to find a better spot to see the destructive being, smashing into skyscrapers with its beam whips. He climbed up the side of the school using emergency ladders, and stood on the top, watching the carnage. It was repusilvely magnetic, he knew of the loss of life ensuing, yet was captivated by such raw power. In the back of his mind however, he wished for it to stop. His prayers were answered by two more mechs, entering his field of vision quickly. With a fluttering heart, he watched the three entities clash, ripping each other apart.[/b][/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerosaber Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 [I]"Great, this means I have to fight yet again..I hate this."[/I] Shinji thought to himself as he lifted off in the Vermillion. He had gotten an audio tutorial from Elvy on the basic controls. However the cockpit was situated diffrently than the Eva's cockpit. Plus the manuvering was a little bit faster, but what the Eva lacked in fast controls was hair-trigger reflexes practically. Once he'd lifted off with Elvy, Shinji took to the air and could see the angel randomly destroying buildings, but its attention was soon turned towards Elvy as she opened fire on it with her rail gun. While Elvy was letting the angel know she wasn't to thrilled with it. "I guess Elvy opened fire immediately huh?" Ayato said as he stopped the RahXehpon next to Shinji. "I guess so. But the Angel has a barrier called an AT field. Her rail gun will weaken it over time but I think that she should use the other weapon." Shinji said as he watched the bullets practically get absorbed by Shamshiel's AT field. "You mean use the Wave Optical Cannon?! I don't know Shinji, that seems a little risky if you want my opinion." Ayato said. "But if we're going to do that I'll grab it and both of you fire on it." With that the RahXephon took off towards the battle. While Ayato was trying to get to the angel, Shinji had his Vermillion hovering where had been for the past few minutes. He really didn't want to fight but he had to. Otherwise this place would be destroyed. As he looked back towards the angel he saw the school was not too far from the angel, but someone was on the roof. Zooming in, Shinji saw it was the kid from his art class! Flashing back to the incident with Shamshiel in his universe, Shinji remembered Toji had pulled a similar stunt. Thrusting the Vermillion as fast as it would go, Shinji landed behind Shamshiel but in front of the school and opened fire with the rail gun. As he did so Ayato finally managed to grab the angel and both shot into the air. "Way to go kid! At first I thought you were just confused on how to move again but you did great!" Elvy said as she streaked off into the air with Shinji following behind. When they were far up enough Shinji could see that the RahXephon had let go of the angel. "Okay Shinji, let's do this!" Elvy said as her Vermillion's gun changed into its Wave Optical Cannon mode. Shinji did the same but as he was about to fire, Shamshiel punctured the left arm of Shinji's Vermillion. As soon as Shamshiel retracted its arms the Vermillion's arm exploded, which caused Shinji to drop his gun. Cursing at himself multiple times Shinji dived down after the gun and managed to grab it but not before taking a dive into the bay. Yelling in anger, Shinji shot back up into the air with his gun and pointed at Shamshiel. "DIE YOU BASTARD!!" And with that he fired his weapon at the angel's core, which was now unprotected. The angel's core vaporized from the weapon, where the core had been, a large hole appeared and the angel hurtled down towards the water and exploded. Shinji was panting with exhaustion as he followed Elvy down to the hangar and docked. When he climbed out he was greeted by both Elvy and Ayato, both of whom had smiles on their faces. "That was great Shinji! I thought you did excellent for your first time piloting a Vermillion." Ayato said. Shinji smiled. "Thank you Ayato. I'm sorry Elvy, I didn't mean to lose an arm off of the unit." Shinji said bowing. Elvy looked at it and chuckled slightly. "Hey kid, you don't have to worry about it, we've got surplus Vermillion parts." Shinji nodded and excused himself as he went to go shower and change. When he emerged from the locker room he saw Ayato standing there in his clothes from earlier today. "Do you want to get something to eat Shinji??" Shinji nodded and Ayato led the way. While they were walking along the walkway Shinji saw two teams of technicians working on both Vermillions. "Ayato, do you really think I did well??" Ayato turned around, a little confused but looked Shinji dead in the eyes. "I thought you did great, I mean Elvy gave you a small tutorial on how to pilot it, of course I'm guessing that you were able to figure out how since you piloted the Eva." Shinji nodded and the rest of the walk there was pretty much silent. As Ayato drove the car out of the underground garage he turned towards Kanai island. When they finally arrived in Kanai island Shinji was amazed at how amazing it was. It was so huge but it was all man made. "You mean in this universe the technology is capable of creating this!?" Shinji said in surprise, Ayato nodded and stopped at a small cafe. When they walked in Shinji noticed it wasn't too crowded. "Umm. Ayato where are most of the people??" Ayato chuckled, "Kanai is still being built. Most of the people are still on the part of Kanai that is closer to Narai, however some are starting to move this way." Shinji nodded and took a seat. When the waitress asked what they wanted Shinji ordered a burger and Ayato ordered the same but with a coffee. When their food came they dug in except Ayato kind of gagged on his coffee. "ACK!! Oh, I forgot the sugar." Shinji snorted a little too much and he could feel his soda about to come up his nose so he swallowed and laughed. After the quick dinner the two headed back to Ayato's house and they were greeted by Haruka. "I saw the fight from the front yard. You both did well, I'm glad you're both safe. Now both of you get to work!" She said as she chased them into the family room so they could work. Ayato pulled out his some of his previous hours' projects and started grading them and Shinji started working on his school work. This was how the night went on until they had to go to bed.

Domon Posted July 4, 2005 Author Share Posted July 4, 2005 [B]Movement 2: Soul and Heart "Animus Quod Pectus Pections[/B] [B]Characters:[/B] Ayato Kamina, Shinji Ikari, Alexander Crowne, Sakura Hiwatari. [B]Settings:[/B] Terra Headquarters, Neriya Shrine, Kanai island, Narai high school. [B]Summary:[/B] Its been a week since Shamshiel attacked and the people of Narai-Kanai are still recovering from the attack. Shinji reveals to some of his fellow students some information about the angels and the Evangelion Unit 01. A week had passed since Shamshiel had attacked Narai-Kanai island. Repairs were already underway. The construction crews were extremely efficient at repairing everything, even though the damage had been minimal. The days had progressed and Ayato had noticed that Shinji was fitting in more and more with the students, especially with the exchange student very well. The two seemed to be pretty good friends. The only thing that was different about today was that both Ayato and Shinji were going to the Neriya Shrine where both the RahXephon and Evangelion Unit 1 were being examined. Mainly the Eva Unit 1. This was mainly because Terra wanted to use the unit as a mobile unit that wouldn?t require an umbilical cord or have to rely on its five minute battery. Instead, Terra and the Mu decided to remove all of Eva Unit 01?s armor so they could see what they could find. Though Ayato had already been told by Haruka that the tech crews were hoping to find some sort of ?black box.? In other words they were hoping to find some sort of block of information containing the Evangelion?s blueprints. Basically if this were found it would mean that Terra itself could mass produce Evangelions. However the two had to wait for this experiment until after school, though Itsuki had promised to hold the theatrics untill then. The day had gone by without any real problems. Though Ayato had to throw a kid out of class for his disrespectful behavior towards a girl. When Shinji walked into class he was chatting with Alexander. Shinji was actually laughing from a joke Alex had told him. Ayato put his mug of coffee down and smiled. Shinji laughing was a good sign to him. He'd noticed over the past few days that Shinji was relaxing little by little but he still seemed hostile when his family was brought up. So it was left that Ayato and Haruka would not pry into Shinji's personal life in his own universe. Ayato came back to reality when the principal walked in with a new girl in tow. He motioned for Ayato out into the hall, "This is Sakura Hiwatari. She transferred from her debate class into your class." Ayato shook her hand and explained what they were currently doing so fart as for projects. When they walked back into the room Ayato scanned the room for an empty seat, "I think the seat near Shinji is actually availible." He whispered and the girl nodded and pulled up a seat and started doodling. Shinji looked over from his work and from what Ayato could assume was ask her what she was doing. Though Ayato's attention span was extremely short today because he was in fact working on a painting, one of his daughter. He'd taken a photograph of her playing with Buchii and just the facial expressions on both Buchii and Quon were amusing so he decided to develop the picture and make a painting of it. When the day finally ended Shinji had walked back from his math class. "You look like a mindless zombie Shinji." Ayato said as he packed his papers up and his painting. Shinji only made an audible gurgle and the two walked out to the parking lot towards Ayato's blue car. As they were driving along Shinji flipped on the radio station and started going through stations. "What exactly are you looking for??' Ayato asked as Shinji took his finger off of the SEEK button and slumped back into his seat. "I was looking for a station that played [I]Fly Me To The Moon[/I] its a really popular song in my time." Ayato nodded and reached towards the button and went to a station that played old songs. "Bascially this station has all the old classic songs, including that one. A lot of people my age either request that one or [I]The Fate Of Katun[/I]. Both are very popular songs." Shinji nodded as the song came on. They both listned to the song when they pulled up into the underground parking garage of Terra Headquarters. As they left the car Ayato led the way towards a large elevator that went straight up the floor where the command center was. He was hoping to see Haruka and commander Kunugi and ask them if Itsuki had gone ahead with the theatrics. When both Shinji and Ayato arrived at the command center they were greeted by Haruka. "So, I guess you came to see me right??" She said winking at Ayato who blushed mildly. "Actually, we were coming to ask if Itsuki had gone ahead and wen with the theatrics, because we all know he's a little too anxious if you want my opinion." Haruka chuckled and shook her head. "Nope, he hasn't but I want to come with you to see it okay?" Ayato shook his head and told Haruka to stay in the command center and left with Shinji in tow. As soon as both of them arrived Itsuki greeted them with his usual demeanor. "Well well, if it isn't Ayato and the new boy lost from another universe." He said with a smile on his face. Shinji seemed offended but Ayato knew this was Itsuki's way of joking around. "So I'm guessing you were waiting on us Itsuki?" Itsuki nodded and pointed to the practically fully exposed Unit 01. "All we have left to remove is the face mask and then the Evangelion will be exposed, but I asked both of you here so that you could witness this occasion. I would have brought wine but of course you know its against regulations and I'm afraid Shinji here is too young." Itsuki said again teasingly. A technician came down from the catwalks and told Itsuki they were ready to remove the helmet. Itsuki nodded and the crews pulled it off gently. However the Eva did not feel very appreciative and proceeded to grab the cables and pull them down full force and smashed the helmet into the water in the shrine. At this time Itsuki asked Sayoko what the stats were on teh Eva's bio life readings. "They're at full capacity Itsuki! I don't know what's going on! Its like the unit has a mind of its...Oh my god! Its...Its..Itsuki!!" At this time Ayato, Shinji, and Itsuki watched in horror as the Unit 01 smashed the wall of the Neriya shrine down and jumped out and let out a blood curdling howl. However, at that exact moment the RahXephon's wings snapped away from its face and it shot out of the shrine and into the sky. "Just what in the hell is happening here??" Itsuki asked in amazement of what had just transpired. "I have no clue Itsuki but Shinji and I are going to watch this froma different view!" With that Shinji and Ayato ran out to see the spectacle unfold before them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retribution Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 [SIZE=1][b]OOC: Yay. New chapter. Let's go!IC: [CENTER][SIZE=4]Animus Quod Pectus Pections[/SIZE][/CENTER] School was an interesting day, with yet another exchange student coming in. Alexander felt somewhat related to her, in the respect that they were both strangers in an exotic land. But she was Japanese, and didn't have the language barrier isolating herself from the rest of the world. For a moment, Alex felt very secluded and alone. American. Native language English. Western. Alien. Away from home. The first time of many more episodes to come. He picked up his backpack, completely empty save his laptop and mp3 player. He didn't need to bring his books back; he could do the homework easily in homeroom.[/b] [i]What better time than now to explore? No one else is here, and I'm not expected back home for a while. Time to wander...[/i][b] He set off for Neriya shrine, a place listed in a tourist map of his and located within a twenty minute brisk jog's distance. He let the world slide by him, drowning out his light breaths with his blaring music until he spotted someone familiar. The fellow stranger.[/b] [i]Was Sakura her name?[/i][b] He paused his music, stopped jogging, and walked over to her. She carried a back pack as well, but was gazing intently at a piece of fruit on a vendor's stand. They spoke in fleeting japanese, he picked up most of it, and it gave him courage. "Hello, you're Ms. Hiwatari from art class, are you not? I am Alexander Crowne. Pleased to meet you," he said in overly polite speech. She smirked, and replied less formally. "Yes. I saw you at school today. You're an exchange student like me, right?" "Oh. Yeah." He loosened up, and remembered what his original intention was. "Could I bother you with a chat at the cafe?" he finished, nodding towards the cafe on the closest corner to them, with a view of the shrine. They had a good talk, getting to know one another better. Occasionally sipping his tea, he relished the chance at making another friend in addition to Shinji, but remained reserved and mellow. After such peaceful, enjoyable moments, it was a huge let down when the alien-form smashed through the shrine wall suddenly. Alex's intial reaction was panic, but he soon realized it was the same thing that defended the city a day or so ago. He remained wary, staring in shock that it would reappear, and wondered exactly what it was. The street was in chaos, people gaping at the destruction it caused, then proceeded to run away from it in a very unorganized manner. Alexander was separated from Sakura in the rush, and eventually gave up the scanning of the shoving crowds, and decided to walk towards the shrine, against all god-given logic.OOC:Sorry about the short post. Tag, Sakura. [/b][/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakura Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 [center][color=Navy]Sakura had felt shy at first as she entered the classroom. Everyone had turned their attention to her. But she found the class was nice and so was their teacher. She had left debating class because it hadn't been for her, not enjoying the thrill of constantly winning against her fellow classmates, which made them angry. When Sakura had been seated, she started to draw and the boy next to her, that the teacher had named as Shinji looked over and asked her about it. [b]"Its just this strange thing I've been seeing in my sleep. Everytime it looks different but this is the most recent one." [/b]Sakura told him, showing the drawing. Shinji recognised it as a type of Angel design and went back to his own work as Sakura continued to draw it. After school Sakura had needed to eat something because she was hungry and didn't want to return to her mansion just yet. She found a fruit stand and asked about the starfruit that were on display. Sakura usually only ate the best so she questioned him about the fruit. [b]"Are there insecticides on it?" [/b]Sakura questioned. [b]"No, naturally farmed, nothing added." "Alright, I'll have one, please." [/b]she said, handing out the money and taking the yellow fruit. When Sakura turned around, she saw someone that was slightly familiar. [b]"Hello, you're Ms. Hiwatari from art class, are you not? I am Alexander Crowne. Pleased to meet you." [/b]he greeted politely. Sakura smirked, she didn't want to laugh at him because she could tell he was still just learning Japanese. [b]"Yes. I saw you at school today. You're an exchange student like me, right?" [/b]He then invited her for tea at the nearby café. Sakura accepted the offer but called the mansion with her cell phone first to let them know what was happening. At the café, Sakura had ordered a pot of oolong tea to share between them and they talked, getting to know each other. She revealed that she knew a variety of languages, including English and if he didn't understand something that she said, she'd just translate it to English for him. Sakura was sure she jumped out of her seat when she heard the sound of something crashing loudly through the shrine wall. She looked over and saw a large machine looking thing there. Sakura was afraid but after a while she recognised it as the thing that had defended the city. She hadn't gotten a good look at it that day but she could just tell. Sakura was separated from Alex as the screaming crowd fled. She waded her way through the swarm in the opposite direction, she wanted to take a good look at the machine. Some people screamed at her why she was going the wrong way, but she ignored it and kept going.

Zerosaber Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 Shinji couldn't believe this normal day had just gone to hell. He could feel his arm being pulled by Ayato but this whole experience felt like an out of body one. Like he was watching what was happening from another point of view. As Shinji and Ayato ran out of the Neriya shrine they were both in shock of the destruction that the Evangelion had caused. Following the path of destruction they came upon a sight to behold. Shinji couldn't believe it. The RahXephon had managed to pin the Unit 01 to the ground and was "singing" or emitting a quantum wave which seemed to be calming the rampaging unit. But what that wasn't it. On the shoulder of the RahXephon Shinji could see a girl in a yellow dress. She seemed to just mind standing there but then Shinji realized she was talking to...His mother. "Ayato...What the hell is going on?!" Shinji said as he fell to his knees. He couldn't believe it. He knew his mother had supposedly died but he realized later on that her soul had been absorbed by the unit. But he'd never seen a physical manifestation of her. "Shinji, what you are seeing is something extremely rare. Usually only I can see Ixtli. Ixtli is the heart of the RahXephon and has physically manifested herself on our plane of existence so that other people can see her as well." I honestly think she is trying to communicate with your mother." As Ayato explained this Shinji just stared in amazement and shock. His mother looked frightened but she seemed to be relaxing the longer Ixtli spoke. Shinji also realized the loud noise the RahXephon had been eminating was now a soft hum. At this time, Shinji looked back at the Evangelion and his mother. Both looked calm but still a little hostile. "Ayato,what's happening?" Shinji asked. "I think your mother finally agreed to calm down and let Terra examine Unit 01. She just asked that Ixtli be there when they examine the Unit. Basically its like asking a friend to go with you to the doctor's office." Shinji nodded and watched as both mechs stood up. The RahXephon's wings closed around its face and it went back into the Neriya Shrine while the Unit 01 sniffed the air briefly and then walked slowly towards the hole in the Neriya Shrine. "No way, this is just crazy as hell!!" Shinji and Ayato turned around and saw Alexander Crowne and Sakura standing there with their mouths open slightly. "Great..I wonder how we're going to explain this one..." Shinji muttered as he stood up next to Ayato. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domon Posted July 25, 2005 Author Share Posted July 25, 2005 [B][U]Movement 3: Lonely Child "Devia Parvulus"[/U][/B] [B][U]Characters:[/U][/B] Ayato, Shinjik, Alexander, Sakura, and Rei Ayanami [B][U]Settings:[/U][/B] Terra docks (briefly), The Lilia Litvyak,, the airspace near Narai-Kanai. [B][U]Summar:[/U][/B] Its time Terra launched a recovery mission. They have launched the Lilia Litvyak which is carrying the RahXephon, Eva Unit 01, along with Elvy and her Vermillion. Though two people who are civilians are tagging along, Alexander and Sakura. The mission is to recover Evangelion Unit 00 and the pilot Rei Ayanami. The three figures stood silent, one of them was Ayato, the other was Shinji Ikari, the third and last was Commander Jin Kunugi of Terra. They were all standing at three different points of a room that had windows on all sides. In the center stood Alexander and Sakura, both had looks of disbelief on their faces. It had been three days since the incident involving the RahXephon and Unit 01. ?What you saw has already been explained. Yes, Ayato and Shinji are the pilots of those things. That is why they have left school in the middle of an attack.. The giant thing with wings on its head is called the RahXephon and Mr. Kamina pilots that, the other one that you saw today is Evangelion Unit 01 and Shinji pilots that. Now, I?ll let Mr. Ikari explain his situation to you.? So it was for the next thirty minutes Shinji explained what had transpired and how he?d ended up in their universe etc. As soon as he finished Kunugi stepped forward again. ?Are there any questions you have?? Both children shook their heads and Kunugi nodded. ?You two will now also have to leave the school and come with Shinji and Ayato when another Angel attacks, understood?? Also, you might as well come with us to see the Evangelion Unit 00 dock in port on the Lilia Litvyak.? With that he turned around and walked out, the sliding doors whooshing behind him, leaving an awkward feeling in the air. Ayato then turned and walked towards the doors with the three teens following. The docks weren?t any better, everyone was unusually quiet except for Megumi who had caught sight of her brother-in-law came bounding up and hugged his arm. That had seemed like the only time anyone had said anything. When the Lilia Litvyak finally made it into port her hull was severely burned and there were holes on the landing zone of the ship. Once she?d docked everyone ran up the gangplank to see what had happened. They were greeted by an injured but still happy Souchii Yagumo. ?Souchii, what the hell happened to the ship, and yourself?!? Ayato asked with a look of worry on his face. The young Major simply chuckled as he rubbed the back of his head with his uninjured arm. ?Oh, this? Heh, its actually interesting, you see we got into a fight with this huge looking angel. I thought it was originally a cloud because of its shape but then it fired on us and damaged the ship. When I?d realized what it was I had to run below and save Miss Ayanami. She?s on the bridge.? With a quick salute to commander Kunugi, Yagumo stepped off the ship and walked inside where he was greeted by Kim. On the bridge of the ship though, everyone but Shinji was in shock of Ayanami?s stature. She was strikingly slim with her pale blue hair. But when Shinji introduced her to Ayato and he shook her hand, something went off inside his head, and then he saw Ixtili standing there. ?This girl?She?She?s lonely and her timber is hollow.? Ayato knew exactly what she meant. This Ayanami had no soul. Something would have to be done about that. But his attention was taken away from that when the alarms started sounding again. ?Commander! We need you in the Command Center immediately, an angel has appeared, information points that it?s the one responsible for the attack on the Lilia Litvyak.? Kim?s voice said over the intercom. Kunugi nodded and looked at Ayato, Shinji, and Rei. ?Ayato, get into the RahXephon its still in the Neryia Shrine. Shinji, Unit 01 is there also, we gave it a life-long battery that was developed by the Mu. Its organic so it will not affect the organic components of the Unit. You, Ayanmi, you?re going to pilot a Vermillion. Megumi, have Lt. Hadhiyat meet Ayanami ASAP and get her up to speed on piloting one of the Vermillions.? With that Kunugi strode off the bridge and was soon followed by Ayato, Shinji, and Rei. When Ayato and Shinji were in their pilot uniforms, Itsuki greeted them both and wished them luck. Shinji entered the entry plug and was first to leave the Neryia Shrine via its massive underwater tunnels. Ayato on the other hand shot out of the opening at the top of the shrine. Looking to his left he saw Elvy and Rei in their Vermillions and Shinji was soon out of the water as well. Elvy then dropped the second gun she had and Shinji caught it without hesitation and tested how the Eva unit could handle it. ?The target is about 1 mile off the coast of Narai island, and is moving at a speed of approximately 40 miles per hour.? Megumi said to all the pilots. Ayato nodded, this thing though wasn?t to be taken lightly. ?Hey Shinji, what?s this Angel?s name??? Elvy asked rather interested. ?Its name is Ramiel, and he?s dangerous.? Shinji said with a tone of gloom in his voice. ?The only way we beat it in my world was that we had to drain all the electricity from Japan and focus it into a strong enough laser that pierced its AT field. This thing is dangerous, I don?t know if your technology?? ?Oh shut up kid, we?re pretty good, plus the RahXephon might have some surprises hidden up its sleeve, right Ayato??? Elvy asked. ?Well, I think so, I hope I do. Otherwise we?re dead.? Ayato said with a smirk on his face, he knew this was enough to get Elvy in a rant about how good the Vermillions were. Laughing, Ayato shot the RahXephon out a little further towards the bay. Interesting enough, he couldn?t see the angel. ?Shinji, does this thing have a cloaking device??? Ayato asked suspiciously. ?No, it looks like a giant glass diamond or two pyramids attached to each other. One on top and one upside down and on the bottom.? At this a fine beam shot towards Ayato who brought the arm of the RahXephon up just in time to project a shield which held up the blast. ?Holy shit! That must mean its not too far away.. Hmm.. I have an idea. Elvy, Rei, follow me!? Ayato shot up into the clouds as the two Vermillions followed. ?What?s the idea Ayato?? Elvy asked a little irritated. Ayato knew this would be tricky but it needed to be done. ?We should overwhelm this thing, give it more than one target. Shinji said this thing can only attack single targets. Shinji, Elvy, and Rei, I need you guys to surround it and fire on it with your weapons. I?ll then attack it after that.? With that the three of them separated. Ayato guided the RahXephon further up so that he was staring down at the top of Ramiel. At that moment Rei, Elvy, and Shinji all fired their wave-optical cannons and a huge flash happened. Ayato at first thought Elvy and Rei had lost their units, but then Ixtili appeared to his right and she pointed towards Ramiel. The attack had succeeded in pissing the gargantuan angel off and it fired off a beam at Elvy?s Vermillion which managed to dodge the shot, but barely. At this Ayato became angry and suddenly he looked at the RahXephon?s hands, the yellow orbs in the hands had emitted beams from them but they were solid. The rest was true for the rest of the body. Smiling he knew what to do. Flying at an angle behind Ramiel, Ayato smiled to himself and then shot towards the unexpecting angel Bracing himself Ayato didn?t expect the RahXephon to just cut through the angel as if it were butter, but it did. When he turned around he saw the angel fall into the ocean and all the multiple pieces exploded when they?d sank. When Elvy, Shinji, Rei, and Ayato arrived back at the command center they were greeted by a slack-jawed Alexander and Sakura. At that moment Alex started in about how cool that was. But Ayato?s attention was drawn towards Haruka who was looking relieved, she walked over to him and kissed him firmly on the mouth, the moment was interrupted when commander Kunugi cleared his throat and Haruka pulled away from him with her cheeks slightly blushing. Ayato soon turned his attention to his mother who had just entered. She was eyeing Rei the same way Ayato had. They exchanged nods and she took Rei with her towards the Mulian chamber of twelve. The chamber of twelve was the chamber where the Mulian elders resided, one of them was Lady Maya. Mainly they were used as a council for decisions made by Terra. Most large scale operations were discussed with the council and then with the Earth Federation. This entailed that everyone was pleased with the decision. If the Mu were against something then Terra would not provide assistance unless the decision were altered. ?All right you two. You?re to go with Mr. Kamina for the evening. We?ll make sure that you?re dropped off at home around seven. For now, he?ll explain things to you and then I want you two here after school tomorrow.? Alex and Sakura nodded and followed Ayato out into the car garage. Most of the day was spent in Kanai Isand. They went around to several stores and then finally finished up by getting something to eat. Even Ayato didn?t know why he had to play babysitter for these two. It wasn?t like they were going to run off and do something crazy. However he knew that they would have probably swamped Shinji with questions and such. Thank goodness Haruka had said she?d take him home. The ride to both teen?s houses was the awkward part. That was the point in time he had to explain where Shinji came from, the angels, and finally the RahXephon. After he?d dropped Alex and Sakura off he drove back to his house while The Fate of Katun played softly. He hummed most of the song until he arrived at his house. When he walked in he saw TWO women sitting in his living room. One was Haruka, the other was a girl with hair that almost matched Haruka?s but she was dressed differently. ?Ayato, this is Misato. She?s from Shinji?s universe. She said she remembers Ramiel appearing in her world and then a bright light and then she was here. Oh, her warm-water penguin was dragged along too.? She pointed to a penguin being harassed by Buuchii. ?A PENGUIN?! What the hell kind of pet is that?! Does he even have a name?!? Ayato said a little dumbstruck, that?s when the penguin walked over and pointed at his collar. ?Oh, so you?re called?. Pen-Pen? Interesting. Okay Pen-Pen, I know you?re going to be happy to see?.? At that moment Shinji walked in and his jaw went slack as Misato stood up and faced him.

Epsilon Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 [color=slategray][size=1]Ayanami's hand dropped, ignoring Ayato's comment. The alarms began as a command was shouted. ?Commander! We need you in the Command Center immediately, an angel has appeared, information points that it?s the one responsible for the attack on the Lilia Litvyak." [i]Later.[/i] After climbing into the Vermillion Ayanami was soon out of the water. She ignored as the other three were talking with no relevance, waiting for a command to be ordered. Ayato blocking the blast, shouting: [i] Holy shit! That must mean its not too far away.. Hmm.. I have an idea. Elvy, Rei, follow me![/i] After moving to position Elvy, Shinji, and Ayanami shot. A counter attack was shot at Elvy, whom dodged poorly. Watching on from the Vermillion, viewing Ayato as became stirred by his emotions and charged. Destroying Ramiel, a small ping ran through her head. [i]Command Center.[/i]Ayato's mother glanced back at Ayanami, as they were walking through the hall to the Mulian Chamber of Twelve. Discarding this motion her own view became totally focused on the sliding doors. Ayato's mother stepped to the side leavening Rei to move forwards freely and alone. The doors shut behind her. [b]Voice.:[/b] Rei Ayanami, found near of near Mt. Fuji [b]Rei.:[/b] Yes, Sir. [i][COLOR=silver]The air was still cool, but the clouds had begun to part. Turning into cirrus formations. Rei ignored this continuing to walk forwards. With out any other aim then to collect further on the current land elevations. The land begin to shake. She kept walking, until the shaking became larger and there was no longer enough stable patterns which she could find to step safely. Stopping Ayanami's glance drifted upwards. Her walk had taken her closer to Mt. Fuji. Eyes darting caught sight of the Vermillion and soon the RahXephon. A slight ringing started as the core of Shamshiel was omitted. The blast fallowing through, dodging past Mt. Fuji and not grazing it. However, the wind force blew Ayanami back. As the traces of the angel disappeared the slight ringing went away as well.[/i][/COLOR] Those who formed the Mulian Chamber of Twelve furthered questioning Ayanami. Rei could see the shadows playing off of Lady Maya face. The slight frown on her face as a glance was exchange between her and the other 11. Ayanami seemed not to cringe as most might, her face stayed detached. The same expression as when she had enter. The Mulian Chamber of Twelve dismissed her. Ayato's mother was still waiting as Ayanami walked out. Leaning against the base wall to the right of the door. Giving an odd glance, the women slowly too a step forwards. Ayanami was escorted halfway to her room before the women left. The doors slide shut. Rei stood in the middle of the room, her view staying on the ground in front of her. Her view moved again. This time to the swaying beams of light that shown through her closed curtains. Ayanami moved to the dresser below it, lifting up a small brown book. Pulling out one of the tabs, she opened the pages to the latest unfilled page. Flipping back she looked to the data from the day before. Replacing the tab to it's proper place she set the book back down. Glancing over the room it was nearly empty. A chair, a bed, the small dresser, and one or two boxes next to a refrigerator. Viewing the vast area unused of her room... Rei frowned slightly. Sitting down on her bed she thought of all 16 Angels as the light beams grew smaller.

Retribution Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 [SIZE=1][b]OOC: Bout dern time, Domon.IC: [CENTER][SIZE=4]Devia Parvulus[/SIZE][/CENTER] Alexander stood inside the room with windows on all sides, staring in utter disbelief at Ayato. He took the time, to reiterate the information, making sure it was drilled in Sakura?s and his head. ?What you saw has already been explained. es, Ayato and Shinji are the pilots of those things. That is why they have left school in the middle of an attack.. The giant thing with wings on its head is called the RahXephon and Mr. Kamina pilots that, the other one that you saw today is Evangelion Unit 01 and Shinji pilots that. Now, I?ll let Mr. Ikari explain his situation to you.? Shinji cleared his throat, explaining to them how their universes because overlayed, and how this was possible. Alexander picked it up like water, wondering how many more things now existed in this universe that hadn?t already. [I]The Angels? How many more?[/I] After the long explanation, they were told they had to leave school with Shinji if an Angel ever attacked. Alexander furrowed his brow, wondering how he would explain his absense to the teacher; apparently Sakura was thinking the same thing, he face contorted into a suspicious look. Finally, they were led from the grand room to the Evangelion Unit 00 dock. There was an awkward silence hanging over the group ? no one chose to speak. They stood around, watching Megumi hug her brother-in-law, when they were interrupted by the Lilia Litvyak entering the port. Her hull was mangled, with severe burns and deep perforations where the landing gear would have deployed. Alexander assumed it was credited to a mechanical malfunction. Everyone gave an inward sigh of relief as Souchii Yagumo emerged from the gangplank injured, but in one piece. ?What the? fuck?? Shinji seemed to be absorbed in Ayato?s conversation with Souchii. Sakura heard him, and shot him a ?be quiet!? glance. He was alone in his wonderment of the damaged ship. ?You see, we got into a fight with this huge looking angel. I thought it was originally a cloud because of its shape but then it fired on us and damaged the ship. When I?d realized what it was I had to run below and save Miss Ayanami. She?s on the bridge.? Alexander?s head swung instinctively to the bridge of the ship, trying to find a line of sigh to Ayanami. If she was a pilot, he wanted to know who she was. They walked into the ship, and finally caught sight of her for the first time. She was slender in stature, with pale blue hair and red eyes. Her eyes were captivating? but they felt empty. ?The eyes are the window to your soul.? He said simply when it came time for him to shake her hand. She gave him a blank gaze into his own eyes, chilling him somewhere deep inside. He felt slightly afraid, but the fear spurred his curiosity. Pensively he looked deeper, searching for? something? They simultaneously broke eye contact. ?Commander! We need you in the Command Center immediately, an angel has appeared, information points that it?s the one responsible for the attack on the Lilia Litvyak.? She tore away, jogging off to get suited up with Shinji and Ayato. Alexander watched at the window wistfully wondering about Rei, and the Angel that was attacking them. The battle seemed to pass by without him really realizing it. ?Did you ? notice something about Rei, Ms. Sakura?? He kept his eyes out on the battle. So did she. ?Why do you ask?? ?I don?t know? her eyes felt empty. You know how the eyes are the window to the soul?? ?Hm? no. Is that an American expression?? ?Oh. Yeah, it is. Sorry for bothering you.? His mind focused on the battle, watching their tactics and hoping he could pick something up by watching them fight what Shinji said was an extremely tough Angel. It seemed as if the RahXephon just effortlessly flew [I]through[/I] the Angel, which disturbed him, but excited him even more. The bridge erupted into cheers. When the pilots got back, Alex ran to Shinji to congratulate his friend. ?How the hell did you guys do that? I mean, that was, Amazing! Brilli?? ?Thanks a lot!? Everyone showered them with streams of ?good job.? After the celebration, Rei was set to the Mulian Chamber, which highly interesting Alexander. She did not look excited to go, so he assumed it must?ve been punishment or mission debriefing. His train of thought was interrupted once more. ?All right you two. You?re to go with Mr. Kamina for the evening. We?ll make sure that you?re dropped off at home around seven. For now, he?ll explain things to you and then I want you two here after school tomorrow.? Alex perked up, and became even more excited. He was allowed to spend more time with his friends, eating, and buying things. He was sure his hosts wouldn?t mind, and followed Ayato out into the car garage. The outing was enjoyable, and he got to know both Sakura and Shinji better. Perhaps he would inform them of his drawings, and their striking similarity to that of the Evangelion Unit 00. He still guarded many ideas and emotions from the two. He did not think it wise to invest heavily in friends who he had not known for very long. But in the back of his mind, he sincerely wished he could divulge his mind to Shinji, and Sakura especially.[/b][/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakura Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 [center][size=2][color=Navy]Sakura stood beside Alexander, both of them were in shock about the new information given to them. She glanced out of the corner of her eye to Alexander and noticed the look of utter disbelief. Sakura just listened silently, she decided she wouldn't make a judgement until she had all of the facts. She soaked all of the information up like a sponge, she put the pieces together like a puzzle, explaining why Shinji had left during class and all of the other small bits she had been exposed to. Sakura's face changed to a look of suspicion when they told her and Alexander that they would have to leave school with Shinji if an Angel attacked. She was sure that Alexander was thinking the same thing as her; how would they explain their absence? Sakura guessed that since Ayato was a teacher, he could do something. Next they were lead to the the dock of Evangelion Unit 00. She looked around the area, taking in everything, then her gaze caught on a female that looked their age standing on the bridge. Sakura just watched her, she had pale blue hair and red eyes, an interesting colour on both parts. She heard Alexander exclaim loudly and Sakura just shot him a look to be quiet since it was rude to exclaim and swear loudly. They were all introduced to Rei, when Sakura shook her hand, she noticed that Rei was very quiet, when she spoke, it was little more than a whisper. Sakura and Alexander watched as soon the pilots were whisked off to fight an Angel. Sakura payed a great deal of attention to the battle, studying the large machines each of them were piloting, they were amazing. Sakura caught sight of the Angel they were fighting and her eyebrows furrowed. She reached into her pocket and pulled out a folded and crumpled piece of paper. She unfolded it and looked at the picture, then at the Angel. It was the thing she had dreamt about and drawn in Art Class. Her train of thought was interrupted by Alexander, as he spoke to her. Sakura quickly folded up the paper and put it back into her pocket before paying attention to him. [b]"Did you...notice anything about Rei, Ms. Sakura?" [/b]he asked, continuing to watch the battle. [b]"Why do you ask?" [/b]Sakura kept her eyes on the battle, intrigued. [/color][/size][size=2][color=Navy][b] "I don?t know? her eyes felt empty. You know how the eyes are the window to the soul?" [/b]he told her. [b] "Hm? no. Is that an American expression?" [/b]Sakura replied, after thinking about it and trying to see if she knew that phrase. [b] "Oh. Yeah, it is. Sorry for bothering you." [/b]he apologised. Sakura was going to tell him that it wasn't a problem but was sidetracked as she watched the battle finish, when the RahXephon flew through the Angel. Everyone errupted and cheers, Sakura and Alexander were caught up in the excitement. She congratulated the pilots when they came in. When the celebrations died down, she noticed Rei leave, she questioned someone about it and they told her she was going to the Mulian Chamber. Sakura wasn't sure what that meant, and was going to ask, when she and Alexander were pulled aside. [/color][/size][size=2][color=Navy][b] "All right you two. You?re to go with Mr. Kamina for the evening. We?ll make sure that you?re dropped off at home around seven. For now, he?ll explain things to you and then I want you two here after school tomorrow." [/b]they were informed. Sakura grinned, she looked forward to getting to know more about Alexander and Shinji. She called her parents on her cell phone quickly, telling them she'd be home around 7, they said it was ok and she followed the others to the car garage. Sakura had lots of fun with the guys, she knew Alexander was a little guarded, but Sakura was quite open, she trusted these people, after all, they would have to trust each other if they were to work together defeating Angels, but she did keep one thing from them, she hadn't yet told them she was part of a rich family. She didn't want any of them to treat her differently because they think she's a rich brat, so she kept it hidden from them, but she's sure Ayato knows. She just wished that the others would be as open to her, especially Alexander. [b][color=Black]OOC: [/color][/b][color=Black]Hope that's ok, I was mainly following the events from Retri's post.[/color] [/color][/size][/center] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerosaber Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 "Mi..Mi..Misato!!" Shinji said as he walked towards her, he couldn't believe his eyes. Here in this comepletely new universe was the one person who had been like real family for him. At this time he ran towards Misato and embraced her, and started crying happily. "I thought I'd never see you again. I thought that the government agents had killed you for sure!" He said crying even more fiercely. "Oh come on Shinji. You know I wouldn't let thos bastards mess with me!" She said as she hugged him closer to her body. "I'm just glad that I get to see you alive and okay!" As soon as she said this, Shinji let go of her and wiped the tears off his face. "I guess you've already met Haruka right? Well, this is her husband Ayato and.." He was cut off by Misato waving a hand. "Tell me after a bit, first I think I should inform you of what's happened in our world." A sudden gut wrenching feeling struck Shinji and he had a bad feeling about this. "Okay, your father was assigned to be executed by the goevernment two days ago. However, he managed to escape back into Tokyo three and has been in hiding since. Also, the S-2s have been commissioned into action to fight and destroy you or any other mechanical beings they encounter. But since you are here I guess we don't have to worry about that." Shinji's stomach seemed to have found its way too the floor as he felt sick from the feeling that his father had escaped and that he could possibly find a way to bridge the gap between the two earths and launch an assault on Terra and mankind. What worried Shinji more were the S-2s, he'd heard they were dangerous and very powerful. However, Misato seemed not to care at the moment for she had wondered into the kitchen and was rooting about the fridge. "Hey Haruka, where do you keep the beer??" To this Haruka repiled. "Its in the bottom vegetable crisper, bring me one while you're at it!" When Misato returned she was brandishing two cans of beer, she tossed one to Haruka and then sat down and popped her's open and took her usual long gulp from it. "AAAHHHH!! You guys here sure have some great beer!" Haruka chuckled and raised her can in a cheers symbol. "You should go drinking with Elvy, I think you two might have a lot of fun, though she tends to act pretty weird when she's really drunk. But don't tell her I said that." Haruka said winking as Ayato finally sat down while holding a rather dishelved Buuchii. Pen-Pen on the other hand had waddled over to Shinji and jumped onto his lap. The penguin looed rather satisfied for harassing the cat back for attacking his tail feathers. After Haruka and Ayato had gone to bed, Shinji followed Misato out onto the porch. She sat staring at the sky and the moon. Shinji had gotten used to how beautiful the nights were here, but he guessed that Misato was just getting used to it. "Wow, I still can't believe how beautiful it is here. Not a single huge crater from one of those damn angels." She said with a smirk as she sipped a thoughtfully on her second can of beer. Shinji stood propped against one of the porch roof support poles. "Well, this placce is different from us. Its weird though Misato. Asuka is out there somewhere. Though I heard commander Kunugi say the German branch base recovered Asuka but we had to go get her. But I guess Commander Kunugi had decided to get Rei first." At the mention of Rei, Misato looked at him like a hawk. "Do they know about her?" She asked, making the reference that Rei was souless and a clone. Shinji nodded. "I think the Mulians and Ayato know. She's being kept at the Terra Command Center for now. But I'm sure she'll be joining me and my friends at school soon though." "You've got friends?! Shinji that's great!" Misato said smiling, Shinji blushed slightly. "Well, I just don't want to lose these ones like I lost Toji and Kensuke. I feel like dirt when I remember what my bastard of a father made me do to Toji. He's luck I didn't tear him apart." Shinji said with venom dripping in his voice. He'd gone to see Toji twice after the incident and after the government had taken over NERV. Each time Toji seemed happy to see him, but Shinji felt like he was trash for what had happened. Misaot snapped him back to reality when she stood up and looked at him. "Well Shinji, I'm now an official officer of Terra, I spoke with Commander Kunugi before you and Ayato Got home. I start tomorrow with Haruka. I'll be an operations officer like before!" She winked as she walked back into the house and down the hall which led to the annex rooms. "See you in the morning Shinji, oh and Pen-Pen's sleeping with you tonight!" With that she shut her door and the house was quiet except for Shinji going into his own room and changing into his bed clothes. When he laid down on his bed he realized this wasn't a dream. Misato was there, and that meant that some of his other friends might pop up soon, though the dark thought of his father loomed in the back of his mind. Shinji eventually managed to fall into a decent sleep, but his father was still on his mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domon Posted August 11, 2005 Author Share Posted August 11, 2005 [B][U]Movement 4: One Child?s Soul ?Unus parvulus animus?[/U][/B] [B][U]Characters:[/B][/U]Ayato, Shinji, Rei, Megumi, Sakura, and Alexander [B][U]Settings:[/B][/U] Kamina House, Narai Beach, Terra HQ, Dock of Lilia Litvyak and Lilia Litvyak II [B][U]Summary:[/B][/U] Its been a day since Rei showed up and now she's going before the Mulian council and its been revealed taht Terra is going to send the Evas, the RahXephon, and a Vermillion to retrieve Eva Unit 02 from the German Base. ?Hey!! Haruka!! You?re out of beer!! Where?s the coffee?!?!? Ayato opened one eye drowsily and looked over at the clock on the nightstand. It read twelve o? clock in the afternoon. Realizing he?d slept in really late Ayato snapped out of bed. As he walked down into the kitchen he noticed Shinji and Misato were already munching on their food and Haruka was trying to get Quon to eat, but she was too interested in Pen-Pen. The penguin on the other hand was interested in his bowl of Udon noodles with some fish pieces cut up in it. ?I think I?ll call in sick today..? Ayato said as he headed towards the phone and then he realized today was Saturday. Letting out a small sigh of relief Ayato turned back towards the table and slumped down with a still tired look on his face. ?Jesus Ayato. You look like absolute crap. Did you get enough sleep??? Misato asked as she looked over at him from across the table. Ayato nodded and grabbed his mug and poured some coffee in it and took a gulp from it. ?Just give me one more mug full of coffee and I?ll be all right.? Quon squealed really loud and pointed at Pen-Pen again. ?Burdy! Burdy!!? She said as Pen-Pen was now pushing his bowl around as he finished off the noodles. Buuchi on the other hand had plans for the bird?s tail feathers. All of a sudden the cat leapt off of the counter and landed on Pen-Pen?s metal back pack that was attached to his collar. Pen-Pen squawked and ran towards the living room where a crash soon followed. Both Ayato and Shinji ran to see what was going on. Some of the papers from last week had fallen on top of the two animals and pinned them down so Buuchii was having a field day with Pen-Pen?s tail feathers and Pen-Pen was having fun attacking the cat?s tail like it was a worm. ?Hey you two, you should come see this!? Shinji yelled at Misato and Haruka. Both women then came in and saw the two animals locked in their antics. ?Oh jeez, those two are going to be horrible housemates.? Misato said as she picked up Pen-Pen and looked him in the face. The bird seemed content to have lost some feathers but he got some fun. When Ayato picked up Buuchii he noticed the cat was purring like a motor car. ?I think these two like doing this.? With that he put the cat back down and went back to his food. After breakfast, which included Quon throwing her small bowl of food on the floor at Pen-Pen and having the penguin eat it, Ayato had changed into a light blue t-shirt and some loose brown cargo jeans and was off towards Terra?s command center. ?Ayato!! Can I come with you??? Misato said as she came running out of the house while she was still pulling on her red jacket. Ayato shrugged and slid down into the driver?s seat as Misato climbed in next to him. As they were driving down the road, Ayato looked over at Misato, she seemed interested in a book, it was one of Terra?s regulation books. ?So I see you?re going to be joining Terra then, am I right?? Ayato said as he looked out of the corner of his eye to see what Misato?s reaction would be. ?Yeah, I?m planning on joining at operations director. Though I don?t know if you guys need that. Jesus your regulations are more damn annoying than NERV?s. I swear, so many different things! Jeez..? She said as she reached with her right hand for the radio dial and turned it to a random station. The music playing was something along the lines of American Country music. Ayato cringed at the horrible song and flipped it back to his favorite station. Misato looked up from her book, a challenging look on her face. ?I was listening to that?? She said dangerously and Ayato merely concentrated on the road. ?Yeah well, some of us still would like to retain our sanity.? He said jokingly and Misato flicked back to the station. Ayato gritted his teeth a little and flipped the station back to his. ?Damn you Ayato! I was listening to that!!? This time Misato threw her book down and went to reach for the button but Ayato stomped on the brakes and she was pulled back into her seat. ?My car?my rules?.my damn station?? He said and Misato still glared at him like a child that wouldn?t give up. The rest of the ride to Terra was quiet and awkward. Once they pulled and entered the command center, Misato took the corridor that led to Commander Kunugi?s briefing room. Ayato assumed it was so that she could be briefed on what she?d be doing. The thought was quickly lost when Ayato ran into his mother and Rei. ?Oh. Hello mother, are you taking her to the chamber?? Maya nodded and Ayato shrugged and followed both of them into the chamber. The room was a large circular room and the seats of the delegates were arranged in a clock like fashion. Ayato soon realized that the delegates were murmuring amongst themselves. ?Lady Maya. We had no idea your son would be here, is it okay??? Said Helena, a girl who was only the age of 20, but she?d been appointed to the sixth position of the delegation. This meant that if Maya were to be gone, Helena would become the leader of the twelve until Maya?s return. ?Yes Helena, he is allowed to see this. He is in fact, one of the few who can help fix whatever damage has been done to both universes.? With that Maya took her seat at the twelve o? clock seat and spoke in the language of the Mulians, a language that Ayato had no clue about, and at that time Rei was walked to the center of the room. ??Let us begin?? Maya said, and with that a slow but steady humming resonated from all the delegates except for Maya. The room seemed to swirl and then it stopped, but the air seemed heavy with a presence, and then he saw it. Hundreds of them, it was a massive sea of blue spirits. This was something that required the strongest willed Mulian to accomplish, but twelve of them, no wonder there were so many. However, when Ayato looked he saw Ixtli standing there, she was singing too. How many of these spirits had she brought here herself? Ayato wondered as he looked back towards Rei who seemed unfazed by this. ?My brethren of mulian blood. We do this today to look for this girl?s lost timber. We know there is a Rei Ayanami in this universe too. At some point in time she has existed, if so we can find her soul and make a copy of it and give this form of her a life!? With that the humming changed into that of a full fledged choir and the spirits parted and one remained. Maya then started speaking again, her eyes focused on the task at hand. Ixtli was still singing as well. ?This is the Rei from our universe, her soul is here because she has already passed, but alas she realizes that this version of her has no soul so she has decided to allow us to put her soul into this hollow body. Now the question is, Rei will you accept this gift??? Ayato looked towards Rei whose face registered nothing except a blank stare. Then from her a response, but so small it was almost a whisper. ?If I must than I will.? Maya nodded and with that the singing increased even more in volume and the soul plunged itself straight into Rei?s chest and she collapsed. At this the singing stopped and when Ayato looked to his right again, Ixtli was gone. Two medical officers took Rei back to the sick bay so she could recover, all that she needed was some rest. Ayato however needed to speak with his father and Kunugi. Once Rei had been taken out of the chamber he went straight to Kunugi?s office and found both his father and Kunugi sitting and drinking some tea. ?Hello Mr. Kamina.? Kunugi said gruffly but somewhat lightly. ?Commander. Mr. Kamina is my father, just call me Ayato.? Ayato said lightly and with a smile on his face as his father chuckled. ?I came to ask about the third child that was recovered in Germany. Hasn?t our base there been giving us hell for not going to get her? If so I can take the?? ?I?m guessing your wife is to thank for giving you this much information right?? Kunugi said smiling as he took a bite out of his sandwhich. ?Yes. The German base has been giving us a?hard time.. But I have decided to retrieve this child with both of our ships now. The Lilia Litvyak II is ready for her maiden voyage, and I?m glad that its ready now because we?re taking both Evangelion units, the RahXephon, and a Vermillion. Now go get Mr. Ikari, Mr. Crowne, and Miss Sakura and bring them here soon.? ?Alexander and Sakura? Why do they have to go along??? Ayato asked puzzled at this development. ?Because son, they deserve to see these things in action and they should get to meet Miss Asuka as well.? His father said as he stood up and nodded at Kunugi. ?Well Jin, I think I?m going to go with my son and see my grand daughter.? ?Oh, I?m going to warn you, we have a new addition to the family. A warm-water penguin that?s Misato?s. He and the cat seem to have this thing where they get a kick out of attacking each other. Its beyond belief.? With that the two left to go collect the children. When they arrived at the house, Haruka greeted them. ?Shinji and his friends went for a swim down at the beach so you?ll find them there. Also, Megumi is down there with them she decided to come over and she met Shinji so she?s down with them.? Ayato nodded and left his father with Haruka, Quon, and the two crazy animals and drove to the beach to get the kids and his sister-in-law.

Retribution Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 [SIZE=1][b]OOC: I can edit the details in, but I?m slightly unclear as to what to write for now.IC: [CENTER][SIZE=4]Unus Parvulus Animus[/SIZE][/CENTER] Alexander fought to maintain his balance as he shot through the curl of a wave. He was easily six feet inside the wave, and leaned forward to speed himself up, so he wouldn?t get caught in the watery vortex behind him. He momentarily lost his balance, and shifted to his left side to compensate. He over corrected, and felt his body crash under the sky blue waves, caressed by the cool, relaxing water. He got to the surface, and sat on top of his board, waving to Shinji. ?Whoa! Awesome!? He exclaimed loud enough for Sakura to glance at them from her lounge chair on the sand. ?Yeah, you were pretty good yourself, man. You probably lasted longer than me, too,? he replied modestly. They heard a car drive up to where the sand met the street, and glanced to see who it was. ?Well, I guess we had fun while it lasted, right?? He sighed inwardly, disappointed that he could not surf for any longer. ?Definitely?? Shinji had the same thoughts as him as they waded out of the water, and walked past Sakura. She pulled her shades down lazily, looking at them with a raise eyebrow. ?What? You didn?t hear the car? We gotta go.? Shinji nodded towards the car, and they both loaded in. Sakura got up from her tan, just as disappointed as the guys, and sat beside them in the backseat. It was a tight pack, but they all fit without complaint. The car ignition coughed up, and began to purr as they pulled off the curb and towards the Lilia Litvyak II. The silence was awkward for roughly ten minutes, and Alexander had something to get off his chest. ?Guys. I mean? guy and ? gal?? he coughed awkwardly, trying to stay politically correct in what he understood as a country with strict social standards. ?I draw a lot. You two know that, right?? ?Yeah. I saw you in art class the other day. Why?? Shinji nodded in agreement with Sakura, and accidentally knocked Alexander on the head in doing so. They both grinned, but Alexander?s smile faded. ?I drew a diagram of the Evangelions, without ever seeing them before. I mean, it was just a sketch of mine, but it matched nearly perfectly with the joint system.? The car was silent for a while, and Ayato looked back at Alexander for a moment. ?You said [I]what?[/I]? Ayato said, his eyes meeting Alex?s. He was obviously surprised, but pulled his eyes back to the road after hearing a car horn and narrowing avoiding a crash. ?I drew the Evangelion joint system without ever seeing it.? Again, there was silence. ?I just thought I should tell you that, in case was serious or useful.? [I]IDIOT! Why?d you tell them that? They think you?re nuts now. All of them. Great job, Alex.[/I] After a respectable interval of time had passed in silence, Shinji and Sakura began to chat about something that Alexander mentally drowned out. He felt like an outcast, but for no apparent reason. Finally, the car stopped at the dock, and everyone loaded out, carrying their own change of clothes. Ayato told them they would change on the ship, so they followed his instruction, no matter how foolish they all felt walking around a military installation in dripping swimming trunks. [I]You?re still an idiot, Alex.[/I] He kept his silence, and loaded onto the Lilia Litvyak II with Shinji and Sakura. Shinji and Alexander went into the men?s room to change, while Sakura changed in the women?s room adjacent. While Alexander was finishing putting on his shirt and shoes, he began to talk to Shinji. ?How does it feel to pilot?? ?I hate it. It?s scary, risking your life out there, and sometimes you have to? watch?? he mumbled the rest of his sentence, something about friends and death. Alexander swallowed hard, realizing he would not be playing a video game when he finally donned an Eva suit. He would be a soldier, without happiness, without family, without friends. ?Did you have friends when you piloted?? ?Well, sort of. Rei was very quiet, but she was nice. And Asuka was a jerk to me, but I had to bunk in the same apartment as her. Don?t let her looks fool you.? They both chuckled in the acoustic bathroom as they filed out, still laughing while Sakura looked at them curiously. ?What?s so funny?? She slowly began to grin. ?Aww, nothing. Boring guy talk, right Alex?? ?Guy talk ? oh, yeah.? He suppressed his laugher, as he looked at Sakura looking slightly impatient. ?Boys will be boys,? she said, shaking her head as they took seats in the lounge room. The seats were extremely comfortable, large and newly furnished like the rest of the ship. Alexander soon engaged Sakura and Shinji in conversation, trying to get his ?failure? off his mind.[/b][/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakura Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 [center][b][color=black][size=2]OOC: [/size][/color][/b][color=black][size=2]Ah! Gomen, I haven't had time to post until now. [color=Navy]Sakura had been disappointed when their fun came to an end as the car pulled up. Sakura had just sat in the car with her beach towel lying across her lap. Shinji and Alexander were both sitting on theirs so they didn't wet the seat, after being soaked from surfing. Sakura felt that Alexander had opened up to them a little by letting them know that he had drawn a joint system of an Evangelion without seeing it. Ayato was surprised, while Shinji and Sakura were shocked and speechless. After a while, Shinji started to talk to Sakura in fast paced Japan. They were talking about their families. Sakura told him how she came from a rich background, and Shinji was surprised because he hadn't suspected it from how she acted. Sakura informed him that it was just a stereotype. She discovered a little about Shinji. His mother passed away when he was young, and he didn't have much of a relationship with his father. Sakura looked out the window when the car stopped. They were at the docks, and there was a large ship waiting there. Ayato informed them that they would be able to change on the ship, so they got out of the car. Sakura wrapped her large beach towel around her body and they all boarded the Lilia Litvyak II. Sakura split from the guys to go to the female change rooms, slipping into her navy blue cargos and white, button up dress shirt. She wrapped her bathers in her towel and put them back into her bag. Sakura exited the empty change rooms and waited patiently for the guys to emerge. When they did, they were laughing loudly. She questioned them but they brushed it off without answering. Sakura shook her head at them and rolled her eyes. The three of them went to the lounge and got comfortable, they were talking happily when Major Yagumo and Ayato walked in. They were asked if they wanted to see the rest of the ship. They agreed and were taken on a tour, ending up on the deck. As they arrived, they could see Evangelion Unit 01 and RahXephon being loaded onto the ship too. They were allowed to hang around on the deck or go wandering off, as long as they didn't get lost. Sakura watched as the two large machines were loaded on slowly, she wondered if she should reveal to everyone that she had drawn an Angel in art class, the same one that Shinji and the others fought the day after. Or tell them that she had had dreams of several others. Sakura leaned against the rail of the large aircraft carrier and admired the scenery peacefully, taking a deep breath of the salty sea breeze. [b][color=Black]OOC: [/color][/b][color=Black]Hope that's all in order. Let me know if I have to change anything.[/color] [/color][/size][/color][size=2][color=Navy][color=Black][/color] [/color][/size][/center] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagger Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Megumi was still trying to get a handle on Shinji--of the newly arrived pilots, he interested her most, if only for the fact that he was so easy to push around. What a dope. Actually, she amended, drumming her fingers on the arm of her chair, that took much of the fun out of it; his reactions were always sullen, and his retorts dispirited. For some reason she had been prepared to accept him as a model of a younger Ayato, but she simply couldn't make the image fit. And now she was [i]bored[/i]-- Yawning, she watched the girl--what was her name again? Sakuranbo? Sakura?--speak animatedly with Alexander. They seemed to be getting along just fine, she thought sourly; she'd never aspired to be a pilot of any kind, but there was something vaguely irritating about being surrounded by so many people--most of them little older than she--with such an unusual set of skills. Having an older sister like Haruka was discouraging enough; now she couldn't even compete with others her age. And then there was the blue-haired one with the soft dead-sounding voice, the scarlet eyes. [i]She[/i] would have been sort of fascinating, too, if she weren't so unbearably creepy. Megumi heard a tapping sound and realized only later that it had been her own foot, jiggling nervously against the floor. She aimed a baleful look at the two still talking. When would Ayato and Shinji return? She didn't loathe herself. She didn't have a sister complex, she had most certainly never harbored a crush on Ayato, and she never (never!) picked on others just for the heck of it. She wasn't quick-tempered; she always remembered to feed Buchi; she didn't find Quon to be unduly annoying... There he was, the brat. "Oi!" she yelled, waving, before Sakura or Alexander could slip in a word edgeways greet him. "Shinji!" The boy appeared momentarily cowed--he was used to this sort of treatment, she'd decided not long after meeting him--then shuffled over. Ayato watched his progress from behind, an almost Itsuki-esque look of amusement flickering across his face. Glancing over Shinji's shoulder, she scowled at him happily; in response Ayato made a frame with his fingers, as though snapping a picture. It was an old joke of theirs, probably the only thing he had shared with her before sharing it with Haruka. Later, there was the usual bantering and a not-so-usual round of badgering Shinji about Rei. Later, she worked up the courage (which seemed somehow silly, in retrospect--who needed [i]courage[/i] just to approach some shy red-eyed girl?) to talk to Rei herself, a conversation which gleaned her little aside from the fact that Rei was, surprisingly, capable of laughing. Later still, she began secretly planning to hold a death-match between PenPen and Buchi. She could probably make a load of money through betting... All was well in the world, she concluded eventually. So it seemed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
