"Well where the hell have you been!" Asuka stood at the foot of the door, startling Shinji "Out with a girl maybee~?" She teased


"N-no, i was just out with a friend!" he replied cautiously sliding past Asuka, trying to get into the apartment without fueling her temper in some way. "Yeah, its impossible a girl would want to hang out with you." she followed after him into the living room


"Hey wheres Misato? I haven't seen her in a while." He asked shaking his bags off onto the floor. "Neither have i, I've called her a few times and she says shes at work. But there seems to be no recent angels lately or much going on so why the hell is she staying at work so late, i bet shes probably off out with Mr Kaji, ugh she could at least be honest about it, that pisses me off."


"i don't know Asuka, she would probably tell-" "SHUT UP IDIOT SHINJI, YOUR VOICE IS MAKING ME MAD." She hissed in his face, practically spitting on him. The poor boy just held his hands up in defence and backed away into his bedroom, he had too much to think about than Asuka and her fun temper.


He stripped naked and collapsed onto the bed, the moonlight slithered through a split in the curtains casting a light onto the boy's bare form. His heart began to race as he thought back to today's events, that boy, what does he want? Something was different in this repetitive life, ever since that boy turned up things haven't been the same. But what was it? why did Shinji have these conflicted feelings with someone he hardly knew, why had he suddenly become aware of his surroundings? Its like the Earth was spinning backwards, but he simply couldn't understand any of it nor could he come up with an answer or theory to reassure himself. The only thing he could come up with was that he was contemplating too much; and this nonsense needed to end now.


He curled up into the sheets and shut his eyes trying to tune out his thoughts but they just kept invading his peace, it was becoming frustrating. What the hell are you doing to me? he wondered

At Nerv headquarters a crucial meeting is taking place, the whole team is sat around a large glass table with Misato at the centre of the attention, leading the operation as commander Ikari left her in charge. She slowly rose from her seat.


"A new angel has arrived."


A frightening tension was born into the room, everyone could sense each other's fear as their hearts began to audibly race . Lieutenant Maya was bravely the first to end the silence "Do we have any information on its whereabouts? how come this hasn't appeared on our radar?"


"No, we don't know, but for some reason it hasn't attempted an attack yet, its last recording was at the Municipal Junior High School for a short time then it completely flew off our radar, we have no idea whats going on."


"Just what could it be trying to do?" Makoto queried, the team's dread grew as Misato hopelessly sighed "I haven't the slightest clue, we're having a tough time tracking it. This is a type of angel we've never encountered before, we predict it's taking a different form unique to the previous angels making it harder for us to recognise its whereabouts."


"So what are we going to do?" another member of the team spoke up "Im afraid all we can do is stay on high alert for now, we cant do anything without knowing where it is.


The room began to erupt with protest "Why don't we set off explosions throughout the city? Surely we cant just wait for that thing to come and kill us?! right?!" Shigeru nervously suggested the whole table began nodding and agreeing with him, they were all riled with unease and did not want to leave this meeting without a solution.


"Unfortunately we cant just go blowing up the city, there's no way to determine the angel's size or whether it would actually be hit, or if it was resistant to the attack. Plus its too much of a risk for the citizens, it would be costly." Misato winced as the whole room furiously fought against her, it was a tricky situation they were in.


She heard remarks of death and destruction, she understood where they were coming from, it was a difficult situation however it was frustrating how they insulted her knowledge, she already had huge pressure of leading this operation, the least she needed were a swarm of wild harpies


She violently pummeled the table with her fists, gaining the teams attention. "THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO RIGHT NOW, I UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERNS BUT WE NEED MORE INFORMATION BEFORE WE PLAN AN ATTACK, PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT!" She snapped, the whole room turned sileny once again and Misato angrily stormed out of the room.


Dr Ritsuko who hadn't spoken the entire time calmly stood up and dismissed the meeting, she then followed after her friend, finding her sat in the lobby with her hands clenching a fisftul of her violety blue locks .


"Hey its alright, just relax." she kneeled down beside her friend, consoling her "You have to take control of your emotions."


"Easier said than done." She looked up from her lap, freeing the harsh grasp on her hair. Ritsuko simply smiled, and that was all she needed to feel somewhat at ease.


"I know what you need." Ritsuko stood up and headed towards the door, signalling her friend to follow "Drinks on me tonight." Misato jumped up and eagerly followed after her, the dr quietly chuckled to herself.
