Akira Fudo/Devilman soared through the air. Spotting his Angel quarry,
he smiled.
"Let's see how tough you are," he muttered as he did a power dive
towards the Angel.
Devilman crashed into the Angel's back with an outstretched fist. As
soon as he impacted, he grabbed the 'head' of the Angel and pulled
upwards. A loud shriek was let out as the creature's head was slowly
broken from its body.
Devilman let go of his prey and watched as the two pieces of the
lifeless body spun downward past the cloud layer, on their way to the
ground.
"A battle above the clouds. Those toys of NERV couldn't have gotten up
here. I wonder how many heart attacks I gave Seele," Akira thought with
some amusement.
---------------
Lorenz Keele was holding his chest as the new images from NERV were
displayed. He was almost alone because of the images. The shocking
appearance of Devilman was too much of a strain for most of the other
SEPH's. Some died from heart attacks. Others went insane and had to be
locked up. Only himself and two others remained.
"A demon," Lorenz muttered. "And just not any demon. The Beast of
Hell: Amon. One of the Arch-Demons."
Seph-11 asked, "What does this do to our plans?"
Seph-07 said, "The scrolls mentioned nothing of this. There is no
telling how he will affect the 3rd impact, if he hasn't already."
Shaking his head, Keele stated, "He mentioned that the second impact
had already occurred, and he took care of it. I need more information
on this."
A bleeping sound came from one of the panels. Lorenz walked over to it
and pushed a button. A voice came over a speaker set next to a phone.
"Keele, this is Kaji. Seems that Kaworu Nagisa revealed that he's an
Angel and that the test has shifted focus from all of humanity to
demon-boy. This is my last message to you. I'm going to a church.
Bye."
Keele clicked the phone off and sat down wearily. An angry look came
over his face as he recalled the name Devilman called himself.
"Fudo," Lorenz spat. "We had to bury his parents alive in the ice when
we remove Lilis from it, and now he wrecks my plans years later."
"Fudo?" Seph-11 asked.
"Akira Fudo," came Keele's response. "Son of the leaders of the Fudo
expedition that found Lilis. How he gained the powers of Amon is
anyone's guess. Have some new spys set upon him and Tabris. I need to
know more, before we can proceed."
-----------
Devilman smirked as he saw NERV guards holding rifles pointed at him as
he approached the complex. Not really wanting to hurt them, he faded
out to their astonishment. He faded back in behind Misato and waited.
He saw that the others were busy staring at the viewscreen in the
control room.
Misato said, "Where'd he go? I can't believe we had a demon in here
with us."
Speaking up, Akira said, "I teleported here. And technically, I'm
half demon."
All in the control room spun around and recoiled at Akira's demonic
shape. He hadn't bothered to change back yet.
With a deep chuckle, Devilman said, "If I had wanted to hurt any of you
before now, I could have. If you could get me some clothes, I' like to
change back without giving Misato a cheap thrill."
Misato flushed a bit and almost slapped Devilman for his remark, but
held back.
"I'll be at the house and I'll explain all that I can there," Devilman
said and faded from view.
-------
A small group approached the Asuka mansion. Rei, Shinji, Nagisa,
Asuka, Misato, Kaji, Ritsuko, and finally Gendo Ikari. Despite the fear
that most of them felt, the curiosity over Devilman.
Rei opened the door and walked in. The others exchanged glances and
followed her. They soon found Akir Fudo sitting in the library reading
a small book. His right arm was draped across a statue. Heraing
footsteps, Akira looked up and back down at the book and started
talking.
"When my parents found Lilis and Seele took her away, it left a hole in
the Antartic ice that allowed the demons frozen there to get out. The
true second impact was the invasion of demons lead by Lord Xenon.
That's why Antartica was destroyed. It was supposed to have been the
blast that would incenrate all the demons on Earth. But, they had all
escaped by that time. Lilis is a demon or at least that's how she's
catergorzied as. Before Adam, she was the wife of Satan."
Asuka sputtered, "You can't expect us to believe that?"
Smirking, Akira replied, "What more do you want for proof? The fifty
dead demons still in the basement from the time I first became
Devilman?"
"WHAT?!" Ritsuko and Gendo blurted out.
Smiling wickedly, Akira continued his tale. "Afte Seele took Lilis
away, they arranged for an accident to bury my parents in the ice. My
father was lucky, he was killed instantly. My mom was eaten by the
demon Jinmen and her soul caught in the demon's shell. Something wrong,
Shinji?"
Shinji shook his head, remembering to a time when he lost his mother.
"What happened to your mother?"
"I freed her and the other souls by killing the demon. If you or
someone wants, I'll take them to Jinmen's shell. Now then. Professor
Asuka became aware of the demon invasion and figured out a way to fight
them. Now, at the time there were not that many ways to fight a demon.
Save one. Mergance."
Shaking his head, Akira passed Professor Asuka's diary to Ritsuko. "He
merged with a demon, but found he could not control it and was taking
control of him. He doused himself in gasoline and set himself afire to
kill not only himself, but the demon as well."
The others stared at Akira with sick looks on their faces.
"That's insane," Misato whispered.
Akira shrugged. "He didn't have the backing of a secret orginization
or any goverment. The demons were a real threat and needed to be taken
care of immediately. He was desperate and before he died, he outline
the requirements needed for a person to be able to control a demon. A
person pure of heart would be needed to control the demon after the
merger. Before the merger, I was a lot like Shinji. Timid and
non-confrontational. Not weak."
"How did you merge with Amon?" Nagisa asked.
"At first, I thought it was pure chance. Later, I figured out that the
demon merge is governed by how much will a person has. Others who have
merged by accident or design don't have that much will and a weaker
demon is merged with the host form."
"Others?" Ritsuko asked. "There were others like you?"
"Not quite," Akir replied. "For a while Ryo was, but in the end he
fell. The others are occultits who think they can control the demons or
people who party and really give into their baser natures. Such as what
happend below. A disco party where lust, alchol, and a total disregard
for all of humanity's better traits went on. Ryo set it up to allow the
mergance. Demons started taking over the people. At first I failed,
since I was so timid. But, the demons preyed on fear as well. I became
so terrified, it allowed Amon to enter me. Unlike the others, I took
over and Amon was the one who was possesed. After that, I killed all
the other demons at the party."
"And Ryo?" Asuka asked.
Akira Fudo closed his eyes and replied softly, "The demon he merged
with was a bit more insidious than the others. It worked slowly on his
desires and used them to fully merge with Ryo with the demon in charge.
I was forced to kill him in a bttle that wrecked Hell. That demon was
Satan. That was the final battle. Besides myself and Lilis, all the
demons were dead. I retired until the founder of Gehrin found me and
told me what Seele was up to."
Gendo's head snapped up and he asked in a hoarse voice, "You were the
back-up plan he talked about? A demon?"
Akira smirked and nodded. "Yep. But it's half-demon. Well. Hmmm.
Let's see I'm a full demon merged with a full human. I'm not sure
half-demon applies. Oh well. As to my lechery and twisted humor, the
mergance with Amon altered my personality."
"For the worst," Asuka said.
"Actually for the better," Akira countered. "I have learned to enjoy
life each day and relish in just being alive. Even if I could, I would
not change what has happened to me. I have gained too much."
Shinji stared out the window and felt jealous of Akira Fudo. He was
able to see his mother one last time. He now recalled how his own
mother was lost.
"Shinji? Are you all right?" Akira asked.
"Shinji has been like that ever since you mentioned Jinmen," Rei said.
"It is probably because Yui Ikari was lost inside Unit-01."
Gendo was upset and demanded, "Rei? How could you tell him that? That
was confidential infromation."
Akira's eyes narrowed at Gendo and he ground out, "I'm going to put you
in Hell by giving you exactly what you want."
With those words, Akira teleported out of the house and inside the EVA
bay. He walked up to the purple Evangelion and stared at it.
"Yui? It's me Akira Fudo. The battle is over and I'm getting you out
of there."
Akira removed his jacket and shirt to allow his wings free access.
Draping the clothes over his shoulder, he extended his wings. He flew up
to the entry hatch of Unit-01 and extended a glowing blue hand into the
hollow area.
*If I could get Joan of Arc out of the real Hell with demons actively
trying to keep her there, this man-made contraption will pose no
problems for me.*
Using his ability to see into a soul, Akira's hand encountered an arm.
Thrusting his other hand into the area, he grabbed ahold of the arm with
both hands and pulled. As he pulled, a hand grabbed his arm and held
on. With a slurping pop, a naked women was pulled out of the
nothingness inside Unit-01.
Grabbing a spare plug suit, Akira threw it at the woman. "Here.
Decency laws and all that."
Blushing, Yui Ikari got dressed and asked, "How? The best machinery
couldn't do what you did with your bare hands."
Smirking, Akira recalled his wings and replied, "I'll let your son and
husband explain. I don't want to go over it again so soon."
Upon hearing that comment, Yui frowned, "Gendo. I have a lot to say to
that man about how he treated Shinji."
*Which is exactly why I did it. Gendo gets his wife back, but boy he's
going to be in Hell because of it.* Akira thought to himself with a
smirk.
Putting a hand on Yui's shoulder, he calmly teleported the both of them
back to in front of the Asuka mansion. A video camera had recorded it
all.
-------------
"I wonder what he meant by that," Misato said as she looked at the
place where Akira Fudo once stood.
Kaworu Nagisa smiled a bit and said, "He has the powers of an
Arch-Demon at his command. He's able to do things that are impossibe
for lesser Angels and Demons."
Misato stared at Nagisa with hatred. "By all rights, we should be
killing you. But if what you said is true, there would be no point."
"You should also be killing Rei, since she's part Angel as well,"
Ritsuko added.
"She is right," Rei responded. "I was cloned from Yui Ikari and
Lilis. I am half angel. Now I understand why I felt fear from this
place when Akira carried me here. I felt the demonic energy that is
stored in this place."
"Rei..." Gendo began in anger, but was cut off as two people walked
into the library.
Akira said, "Sorry Rei, but this was the only place I knew that was
safe. Before NERV took it off my hands, I've been using it as a base."
Despite Akira talking, everyone ignored him and stared at the woman who
had walked in behind him. Yui's eyes softened when she saw Shinji and
hardened as she heard Rei's origin and stared at her husband.
Akira knocked on his head and said with laughter in his voice, "Where
are my manners? Everyone, I would like you to meet Yui Ikari. The wife
of Gendo Ikari and mother of Shinji Ikari and apparently Rei Ayanami's
mother as well."
Yui stared coldly at her husband, "I want to talk to you in private.
NOW."
Gendo winced and followed Yui outside.
Kaworu stared at Rei and then at Akira.
"Akira, what do you remember of the demon-world or angel-world?"
Akira shook his head and answered, "Not much. I get vauge dreams from
time to time and know some demons and angels by sight and name."
"I see."
Akira glanced Nagisa and asked, "Is there something I should know?"
Nagisa nodded and replied, "Yes. The laws that both demons and angels
share."
The others watched as Tabris confronted Devilman.
"From what you have told us, Siren is dead. Rei told us that you
carried her here and she didn't struggle to escape."
Rei replied, "I do not see what his rescuing of me has to do with demon
or angel laws."
Tabris smiled a genuine smile and said, "There is a reason, Rei. This
house was Akira's lair when he brought you here."
Rei nodded, "Yes. He said 'welcome to your new home.' And he let me
enter first."
"That confirms it."
Akira bit his lower lip and cursed the holes in the memories that he
got from Amon. He knew there was something important going on.
Tabris explained, "Angels and Demon's don't have churches. We do have
judges and laws though. What Akira did is covered in the law. When a
male angel or demon brings a willing female angel or demon to his lair,
they are considered married. The only way to divorce your mate is to
kill him or her. Siren was Amon's wife before you killed her."
"Amon was married to Siren?" Akira asked in a shokced voice. "I
thought she just wanted to kill me because I protected humans."
Tabris stared at Akira. "You didn't even know that?"
Misato cut in on the conversation. "Hold it. Rei and Akira can't be
married. They didn't go to a church or a judge. Those laws shouldn't
apply to them."
Akira shook his head. "Misato, I think of myself as Devilman at times.
That means I've accepted my demon half."
Misato and Ritsuko looked at the first child.
Rei calmly stated. "I am married to Akira Fudo."
