This story is set after the Doppleganger Fight.
Asuka: WHAT!!!
The apartment shook as a high wale rocked the very foundations of the building. It was apparent Soryu Asuka Langley, second child and designated pilot of Evangelion unit two, was not happy.
Misato: You'll be leaving for England tomorrow.
Asuka: But why me? Why not send wonder girl or the great Third Child!? And why aren't you going!?
Misato: Because Asuka, Rei's unit zero is still under going repairs from the last battle and
Shinji doesn't have any training for aquatic engagement. Where as on the other hand you do. After
All, you fought your first angel at sea.
Asuka: YE but that still doesn't explain why your not going, Misato! Shouldn't you be going to pick up a new pilot, like you did with me!?
Misato: Yes, I should be the one to pick up the new pilot but I have a backlog of reports to write for Ritsuko from the last angel battle and the sync training between you and Shinji.
Asuka: Ohhh but Misato--
Misato: Asuka I don't want to make this an order but it already is...from commander Ikari.
So you have no choice.
Asuka: gerr...mine Gott, swin hunt!
Misato: Right, well you best get ready to go Asuka.
With a growl Asuka stormed off to her room to pack her stuff for the trip to England.
Misato: huhhh, that was hard work *sigh*
Misato slumped onto one of the living room chairs.
Misato: Why does that girl have to be such hard work all the time?
Getting no reply from the quite room, Misato went and got her self a beer which she quickly dispossesed off before she grabbed yet another and made her way to the living room once again.
Shinji: I'm home.
Shinji slipped off his shoes as he walked through the front door, which closed with a hiss behind him. Seeing a disgruntled Misato lounged on the chair Shinji guessed the obvious.
Shinji: err...You told her?
Misato just noded in reply from behind her can of beer.
Shinji: She didn't take it very well, I guess?
Misato: I really don't know why that girl has to be so difficult all the time
Misato put the can down on the coffee table while she answered Shinji.
Shinji seams to look sad as he glances to Asuka's bedroom door.
Shinji: It's probably because she's going to miss Kaji...
Misato just rolled her eye's and then finished off her beer, before chucking it in with the rest of the can's in the over flowing bin.
Shinji: ermmm Misato it's you turn to clean today...
Misato: Ow don't worry Shinji I'll do it haha
Misato waved off Shinji's worries but for some reason it didn't give Shinji any more confidence. He knew well enough it would be left and he'd be the one to clean it up. Which he didn't really mind, it gave him some thing to do. Misato switched on the TV and Shinji headed off to Asuka's room. He lightly tapped on the door but got no reply, hearing various German curses and grunts Shinji spoke up.
Shinji: A...Asuka...Can I come in?
Only hearing another grunt in reply Shinji opened the door to see Asuka roughly shoving clothes into bags.
Asuka: Why do I have to go? It's not fair! Now I'm going to have to suffer not seeing Kaji for five hole days. Oh the humanity.
Asuka mocked fainting onto the bed and lay there for a few minutes before groaning again into her pillow.
Shinji: Well you won't be gone long and you said you were bored staying in the house.
Asuka shot Shinji a look that would kill an Angel, which he quickly crippled under.
Shinji: Ermmm well...I'll just be going then hehe...I'll see you at dinner Asuka.
Shinji left closing the door silently behind him. Upon hearing more grunt's, moans and other colourful language Shinji let out a heavy sigh before heading to his own room to retreat to the bliss of his S-Dat player.
At dinnertime Asuka still wasn't in a better mood but at least she'd stopped swearing and was talking a language Shinji could actually understand. No body really spoke at dinner, Misato would try to start a conversation but Asuka would quickly shoot her a glair or ignore her. So for once dinner went quietly. Which Shinji liked because if no one wanted to talk, no one could yell at him.
After finishing her food Asuka went back to her room, Shinji cleared the table and Misato got another beer, picked up PenPen and went to watch TV.
The rest of the day was just the same Shinji studded in his room while a drunken Misato lay sprawled out on the kitchen table. Asuka however didn't leave her room all evening.
Later that night... Asuka couldn't sleep, as simple as that. No matter how much she tossed and turned the land of dreams was out of reach.
Asuka: I give up...
The sleepy eyed Asuka pulled herself out of bed and headed of to the kitchen for a late night snack.
Asuka: Baka Shinji. Why is he asleep? Why can't he be awake and make me a sandwich...
Asuka grunted along with other incoherent thoughts. Finally making it to the fridge Asuka went about the task of making herself a ham sandwich and then headed out to the balcony of the apartment that over looked Tokyo-3.
Shinji's S-Dat player stopped with a click and the automatic rewind kicked in. He couldn't sleep, he couldn't stop thinking about Asuka leaving tomorrow. Just then Shinji heard grumbling and shifting coming from the kitchen. Having nothing better to do and being curios, he decided to check it out. He put his head out the door and saw a dishselved Asuka walking towards the balcony, sandwich in hand.
Shinji: huh? What's she doing up so late?
Shinji followed her but ddin't step out on to the balcony. Asuka didn't seam to have noticed him or touch her sandwich. She just leaned on the railing's looking at the stars. The bright moon highlighted Asuka's skin, making it glow and look an ivory white. Shinji just stud and watched the goddess before him, not wanting to move just in case he woke up and the picture of this goddess disappered.
But beautiful moments don't last...
Shinji: ahhh.ahhhh CHUUUU! *Sniff*...Damn...
The cold draft from outside had given Shinji a bit of a sniffle and in the process alerted Asuka to his presence.
Asuka: WHAT ARE YOU DOING SPYING ON ME! BAKA HENTAI!
Misato couldn't sleep...The constant shouting of a raving Asuka along with banging and Shinji's wails of "Sorry!" were keeping Misato from the land of sleep. To make things worse she was starting to feel the after effects of her beer. Taking a glance at her gun she contemplated putting herself out of her misery or better yet shooting the two that were keeping her awake...but she quickly dismissed the idea. Shoving her head under her pillow, she moaned in self-pity.
Shinji went around his regular routeen of making breakfast but he seamed to be moving around a bit more gingerly. By the looks of things Asuka didn't take it easy on Shinji last night.
Shinji: Why does Asuka have to be so mean to me? I mean did I do anything to her?
PenPen: SQWAUK!
Shinji: Huh?...Oh sorry PenPen you must be hungry too.
PenPen: SQWAUK! SQWAUK!
Shinji: Okay, Okay.
Shinji went and got PenPen some fish, which he started to eat happily. Just then Asuka came out of her room, bags in toe.
Shinji: ermmm good...good morning Asuka.
Asuka: Good what's so good about it!? First I can't sleep! Then I get some baka hentai spying on me! And now I'm being forced to go somewhere I don't even want to go, to pick up some idiot who's probably the fourth stooge! AND...
Shinji just stood watching Asuka rant on, on why it wasn't a "good" morning. He'd love to just walk away but he new from experience that Asuka hated being ignored. So he just stood and waited.
Asuka:...Life stinks! Hay why are you just standing there? go make breakfast!
Shinji:*sigh* Maybe it's that time of month
He whispered to himself as he retreated to the kitchen. For some reason Asuka had an angelic smile on her face as she looked to the balcony window. She shook her head, reverting back to her regular self and went and used the phone.
Ring, ring...ring, ring
Asuka: Hi Hikari! I'm leaving today are you coming to see me off...what?...oh ye...no of course I haven't said anything!...he's an idiot!...Hikari! That's disgusting...hahahah...any way if your coming to see me off hurry up and come to my place.
Asuka hung up the phone and followed Shinji into the kitchen
Asuka: Third Child, where's my breakfast already?!
Shinji: *groan*
15 minutes later...
Misato had managed to pull herself out of bed and was drinking her morning beer.
Asuka: Not bad Third Child. At least it was more edible than Misato's cooking.
Misato was to tired to reply so she just shot Asuka a death glair.
Shinji: So when are we going to be leaving?
Misato: In about another 10 minutes, after Asuka leaves for England you've got Sync testing, Shinji.
Shinji: What! Oh man...
*Ding Dong*
Asuka: Third Child go get the door.
Shinji: What am I? her slave?
Shinji got up from the table and answered the door.
Shinji: Hello?
The door opened with a light hiss to reveal Hikari, the class rep.
Shinji: ermm Hikari...What are you doing here?
Hikari: Hi Shinji. Asuka phoned me and told me she was leaving today, so I came to see her off.
Shinji moved aside and let Hikari in. At the same time Asuka came around the corner and the girls went off to Asuka's room.
Shinji:...women...
With that thought he went and cleared the table.
Asuka and Hikari sat on the bed in Asuka's room.
Hikari: So...
Asuka: What?
Hikari: Did you tell him?
Asuka: I told you Hikari, he's an idiot, I don't like him!
Hikari: Come on Asuka it's so obvious the only two that don't see it are you and Shinji.
Asuka: That's a load of bull Hikari!
Hikari: Okay. So where are you going and why?
Asuka: I've got to go to England to pick up some new pilot and their Eva. They didn't even tell me anything about him I don't know if it's a guy or a girl.
Hikari: Oh...How long are you going to be gone?
Asuka: About two weeks. It's going to be so boring on that damn carrier. Just like last time.
*Knock, knock*
Misato: Asuka? Are you ready? We're leaving.
Asuka: *Sigh* Yes Misato.
Asuka and Hikari got up and headed to the front door.
Asuka: Third Child! Grab my bags.
She heared a groan come from the kitchen and grinned, Hikari just giggled.
Soon all four stood at the harbour. Asuka seamed to find something or rather some one missing.
Asuka: Where...Where's Kaji?
Misato: Oh he's gone off some where on business. He's probably sniffing some women's ass as we...
Kaji: You called?
Misato Jumped out of her skin as Kaji appeared behind her.
Misato: God damn it Kaji! One of these days he'll get shot doing that!
Asuka: Kaji!
Asuka screamed as she ran up to Kaji and gave him a bear hug.
Kaji: As...Asuka...Breathing becoming an issue...
Asuka looked up at the blue-faced Kaji and then reluctantly let him go.
Asuka: Oh sorry Kaji. I'm so glad you came to see me off! Do I get a good-bye kiss?
Kaji started to sweat a river, looking down on the expecting face of Asuka.
Kaji: Ermmm maybe some over time Asuka.
Asuka: Ohh. He never gives me a kiss
Misato: Come on Asuka it's time to go. The ships ready to leave.
Asuka: Okay...
She picked up her bags and started to head towards the ship but stopped. She walked up to Shinji and looked him in the eyes.
Asuka: You best stay out of my room while I'm gone!
But why'll saying this Asuka has a strange smile on her face but Shinji couldn't see it with her face so close. She moved closser, Shinji tried to back up but walked into a create.
Shinji: I-I-I wont.
Asuka: Good! Good-bye�Shinji.
Asuka turned and headed for the ship, Shinji was in shock. Asuka stopped half way up the ramp to the ships deck.
Asuka: Bye every one! Try to survive with out the "Great Asuka" around to save your ass.
All minus Shinji: Good-bye Asuka--
Shinji: She...she called me Shinji...
The ship set sail and every body started to leave. Misato walked over to the still shell shocked Shinji.
Misato: Shinji what's wrong?
Shinji: Oh it's...it's nothing.
Misato: okay, okay. Come on you've got Sync test's to get too.
This snapped Shinji back to reality.
Shinji:...*groan*...
Misato: Will you stop groaning already and get your butt in the car.
And so they left, Misato drove her usual way and Shinji hung on for dear life.
Okay I know I did realy crap on the first Eva for Eva but I went back and started from the begging. As you can see I picked up from the critasism I got, I hope I did a lot better this time. The story will still end up going the same way as the first but I'm doing it differntly (as you can see). This chapter was origanly two chapters but I joined them together, I usaly work in short burst's. I also hope I didn't go too OOC or anything.
Thanks to one of my readers I discovered I made a silly mistake with the time Asuka would be gone. This happened becuaase I didn't realy think about how long it would take, I was more worried about how long Asuka would be away story wise. If she was away too long things would seam more stretched out than they already are...well I think so any way ^^;;;
