Truth

	She was dead. Her long, auburn hair, so vibrant in life, now lay in thin,
lanky strands around her slumped frame. Her eyes, mercifully, were closed;
they had seen too much pain before, and now, like the sharp features of her
face, looked strangely peaceful in repose that they now enjoyed. The flesh
of her body was already beginning to whiten as well, the heat fading fast
into the cold air.  

Harkening back to an old discussion here... while I don't like Evangelion,
personally, this fic had a strong enough opening to catch my attention and
make me read it, and it kept up that strength throughout.  Nice fic. :)
