shinji had travelled through several universes, he became the head of celestial being and captain of the ptolemaios II kai, after the ELS conflict, it was slightly alarming when setsuna confronted him about his identity as a lilin but the crew of the ptolemaios, was nothing short of welcoming, despite his history, and the fact he was still technically an EVA pilot even while having taken over piloting both the harute and the zabanya, he was surprised to learn that the relationship between allelujah, speaking of him after the ELS conflict the man had retired and took up life as a farmer, though soma chose to stay with celestial being and became the pilot of the zabanya, when shinji didn't steal it for one reason or another, the two were close but they had more of a sibling bond which surprised shinji as he like most believed the man to have romantic feelings for the girl, like most everyone else in celestial being
shinji was currently sparing with someone he had met in his interdimensional travels whom he had agreed to bring along, her name was sagiri asaemon yamada, he spared with her and shinobu kocho pretty frequently
"captain" feldt said walking up, alongside a face shinji hadn't seen in a while
"sumeragi, i thought you'd retired" i said
"i was convinced to return to the ptolemaios, and this time it wasn't through destroying the life i had created in the process" sumeragi said
"retaking your post then" i asked
"only when you head out in the harute, you are our head pilot after all" she said
"yes, i still hate setsuna for giving me that task" i said
"well since all of your pilots have retired besides you and soma" she said, i scoffed, then froze
"i need to take the harute" i said, as i left to go fetch the gundam in question, sumeragi looked concerned, as that hadn't happened before
"prepare the ptolemaios for launch, inform the general, we may need back up" sumeragi said
"understood" she said, sumeragi nodded and ran after shinji, who was suited up in the pilot suit and making his way to the gundam, when sumeragi caught up
"let us help" she said
"i am mostly definitely walking into a trap, this could lead us back to where we started, hated by the entire world" i said
"this is important to you" she said
"one of mine has been captured, with his EVA, somehow" i said
"exactly, this is important to you, and if what you and setsuna told us about the evangelions is even half as accurate as you describe we need to stop them from doing something monumentally stupid, something we are good at" she said, i gave her a look then nodded
"first i am going to rendezvous with the other lilin i need to know they are safe and have already sent the message for them to gather" i said
"captains, general mannequin is on the line" feldt said
"put her through" sumeragi said
"sumeragi, what is...... captain ikari, this has to do with your secret project then" she asked, i tilted my head
"i told her about the E" sumeragi said, i paused
"well if it's you then i understand, yes one of mine has been captured, i need to retrieve him as soon as possible and check on the others" i said
"i have put a force together, all volunteers who agreed to join your expedition, you'll be pleased to know captain acker is will be leading the force i have put together, under the ptolemaios's overall command of course" kati said
"thank you general, how big of a force if i may ask" i asked
"four nile-class ships, six baikal-class ships, we lost the majority of our volga ships and are still working on refitting and building more, so you'll have to make do with the older models of that ship" she said
"are they fully stocked with mobile suits" i asked
"GN-XIVs at your disposal, and we have also given you the solbrave squadron as well, they have been duly informed that they may not return where they are going even if they live, and have chosen to go regardless" kati said
"thank you general" i said
"it was a pleasure to meet you in person, and i wish you luck, commander ikari" she said as the transmission ended
"i want graham's team on this ship ASAP" i said
"understood" feldt said, it took an hour before the ptolemaios rendezvoused with the volunteer fleet, and graham's team and their units were loaded aboard the ptolemaios
"good to see you again son" graham said
"you as well, old friend, i hope we can have a good spar in the future" i said, he nodded his agreement
"down to business then" he said
"we are already on the way and i have sent an advance message for the flotilia to expect us
sure enough no fuss was made as the ptolemaios came alongside the triton, it didn't take long before the other lilin arrived either
"so what's the issue" asuka asked
"look around and tell me what you see" i said, she did so, then paused
"where's toji" she asked
"and that is why you are here, i will be mounting a rescue operation, if that operation somehow fails i have a small army on standby to force his liberation" i said
"so your checking in on us" hikari said, i nodded
"we're helping, if this happened, it could happen again to any of us" asuka said
"agreed, introductions later, for now, i am concerned that they have also captured the Mk.06 as such we are going in with our EVAs, i will be using a different unit so i can actually rescue toji without giving them a second EVA, the rest of you are to get to your EVAs we will take my new ship the ptolemaios" i said, they nodded and went to get into their evangelions
