"Well, I guess that proves my point," Shinji said.
"What point?" she asked.
"Even though I now know how to lift heavy objects, it's still
restricted," he said, "I guess I can only lift up to a certain weight
through 'willing' a object to be lighter. However, it seems like my
powers aren't strong enough that I could 'will' any object to be light,"
"It'll show up all in due time," she commented.
"I hope so,"
<new stuff 12/22>
"What's up?" Shinji asked, entering the command center.
Shinji and Asuka were in the process of evacuating Nerv when they heard
Ritsuko's voice over the interior speaker system requesting their
presence. Only around a half-hour had passed since they had gone about
doing so before they were summoned.
"I just wanted to ask you about the status of the evacuation and give
you an update on what's going on," Ritsuko said.
"Well, the evacuation's going fine," he said, "It's going to take a
while before I get everyone out of here, what with the fact that everyone
was unconscious. All the people that weren't knocked out seems to have
evacuated already. I guess they evacuated sometime around the time when
the Angel first entered GeoFront. I guess that's why the army started
moving in, since they probably believe all of Nerv's been taken over by
just the four of us what with the fact that there is no response to
incoming calls from them,"
Ritsuko smiled, "That's a very good assumption because you're right. I
listened in on military communications and that seemed to be the case.
The military had executed a double operation. One was to destroy that
aquatic Angel using the N2 mine while it was also to storm Nerv and take
it back by force,"
Misato gulped, "Really? We would've been in real trouble..."
"Yes," Shinji said, "I guess things worked out for the better and we
were in the right place in the right time,"
"Also, I've got good news," Ritsuko said.
Shinji smiled, "Really? Like what?"
"It seems the Angel did his job," Ritsuko said, "Because the hole was
plugged up,"
"R-really?" he asked. He had been wondering if the Angel was going to
succeed or not but hadn't anticipated him to succeed and so quickly.
Ritsuko walked over to the console and pushed a few buttons. It
displayed an image of the Angel entering GeoFront from the tunnel,
casually walking but seemingly walking with a purpose.
"It seems the hole was plugged up completely," Ritsuko commented, "So
much so that we don't hafta worry about the incoming seawater whatsoever
anymore and he needed to get back to Nerv via the tunnel,"
Shinji was silent for several long moments before he said, "H-h-how?
How did he managed to do that?"
"You're telling me," Ritsuko said, pressing a button to display a shot
of the plugged up hole in the ceiling, "But judging from what we see on
the screen, the Angel's definitely succeeded. He's on his way here to
meet up with you I guess,"
"I think he's coming here to find out what your next request is,"
Misato commented.
Shinji scratched his head, "And what request would that be? I didn't
realize Ranma would carry out his mission so quickly. What I'm going to
do is definitely ask him how the heck he managed to go about doing what
he did,"
Misato smiled, "Hey, now that Ranma's free to carry out another
request, maybe you can ask him for help in evacuating Nerv,"
"You're right, I never thought of that," he said smiling happily,
"That'll make our job much easier,"
"It seems like everything is finally starting to look good," Misato
commented, "Heck, at this rate, you can even relax for a bit, a first in
a long time,"
Shinji smiled, "You're right. Finally, it seems like all the bad things
that could've happened, happened, and now only good things could happen
from here on out,"
He sat down on a chair, eager to just enjoy a moment to relax.
A second after sitting down, Shinji shouted in pain, falling off the
chair and clutching at his private area, rolling around on the floor in a
fetal position.
It seems Shinji accidentally sat on his balls.
Misato smirked.
"Heh, it seems like he spoke too soon,"
"God, it must suck being a guy," Misato commented,
"Ha ha," Shinji said, a bit annoyed, wondering when Misato was going to
quit teasing him. She had been teasing him for the past ten minutes.
"I mean what are the chances of something like that happening?" she
continued, "Man, having to worry about something like that you'd figure
guys would've developed a fear of chairs over the course of their life,"
"All right, I think that's enough teasing for one day," Shinji said
with a wry look.
Misato smirked.
At that moment, Ranma entered the command center.
"Ranma, you're back," Shinji said, grateful for the Angel's arrival.
"I did as you expected and plugged up that hole," the Angel commented.
Shinji scratched his head, "I noticed. But, um, exactly how did you go
about doing such a task and in such a short time?"
"I found the aircraft supercarrier located just off the short like you
said," Ranma replied, "I pushed it over to where the hole was so it got
sucked down and got stuck,"
"P-pushed it?! How the heck did you managed to push it?!" Shinji
gasped, "The propulsion system needed for one of those things are in
excess of a quarter million horsepower!"
The Angel seemed confused about the comment.
"Um, go on," he said.
"Once it got sucked down, I melted it," the Angel said, "I used an
energy blast and it generated enough heat to melt it and fill up the hole
completely,"
The room was silent. They couldn't believe what they were hearing.
"What would you like me to do next?" the Angel asked, awaiting his next
command.
"Um, what happened to everyone that were on the ship?" Shinji asked.
"They escaped when I was pushing the ship toward the hole," the Angel
said, "What, did you want me to kill them all?"
Shinji quickly shook his head, "No. Not at all. It was good that no one
died,"
"What would you like me to do next?" the Angel asked again.
Everyone looked at one another.
Shinji gave a shy smile, "Um, can you please help me evacuate Nerv
Headquarters?"
"Very well,"
Evacuating Nerv was a lot easier than expected. This was because, as
stated earlier, most of it was evacuated when the Angel entered GeoFront.
This was because Gendo and Fuyutsuki weren't around to keep everything
under control, what with Gendo being still unconscious and Fuyutsuki
locked up. Nerv personnel didn't know what to do when there was no one to
command them so they left their posts and evacuated.
The unconscious guards and soldiers lying all over the place as an
entirely different matter. Shinji had to basically search every room in
all of Nerv and carry each unconscious body out of Nerv, he having
forgotten which rooms he hid the bodies as he snuck around Nerv.
Without Ranma there to help, Shinji managed to evacuate all of Nerv
after a few hours. This was because over the course of time, the military
executed an operation to storm Nerv around an hour after the first
failure and the Angel was sent off to deal with it. With no loss of life,
Shinji having requested that, the Angel easily handling whatever the
military could send, making them retreat in defeat.
When it was Gendo's turn to be carried out of Nerv unconsciously,
Shinji smirked. He couldn't help but feel some form of pity for that man.
He knew Gendo did all of this all so he could see his wife again.
However, in Shinji's eyes, the ends doesn't justify the means. If that
were the case, Shinji would've abandoned this world and just went to
Germany long ago to steal Unit-01.
He wondered if he was as different from Gendo as he expected. He had
hurt many people in his quest to get his hands on Unit-01. As long as he
got his hands on Unit-01, did the ends justify the means?
"I don't care," Shinji said as he dragged Gendo down the corridor, "I
still hate you,"
The last person to be evacuated from Nerv was none other than Rei. This
was because he didn't want to disturb Rei and more than he needed to.
Besides, he had merely held off on the inevitable.
"Um, hey," he said shortly after he entered her room.
Rei just regarded him silently.
"I came here to help you evacuate Nerv," he said.
"Why?" she asked softly.
"Um, the commander asked for it," he said.
"Where is he?" she asked.
"Um, he evacuated as well," Shinji said half-truthfully.
Shinji watched as Rei got up out of her bed, turning his gaze away when
the bed sheets fell to reveal that she was naked. He waited in awkward
patience as she got dressed in the clothes that was neatly folded on the
chair near the bed.
"I'm ready," she said after she was dressed.
"Cool," Shinji gave a meek smile, "Just follow me. We'll get you out of
here and to safety in no time,"
"Why are we being evacuated?" she asked curiously. She wasn't aware off
all that had occurred.
"Um, terrorists have taken over Nerv and everyone's lives are in
danger," Shinji lied.
He couldn't help but feel very bad that he was lying to Rei.
Shinji and Rei across GeoFront and toward the tunnel.
Rei didn't seem to show any inclination of curiosity on why the two of
them were treading through knee-high water as they crossed GeoFront
toward the tunnel that led topside. She didn't seem to pay any attention
to the Angel with the wings running back and forth carrying six
unconscious bodies at the time
Shinji had asked Ranma to try and carry out the double task of bringing
everyone topside while keeping vigil on the next incoming military attack
of Nerv.
"Um, he's carrying everyone topside and dropping them off by the tunnel
exit," Shinji commented.
He was grateful that Rei didn't happen to spot Gendo being carried
unconsciously by the Angel when the Angel went by them. When they reached
topside and Rei saw Gendo lying unconsciously on the sidewalk, she rushed
to his side.
"What happened?" she asked Shinji.
Shinji gave a meek smile, "Um, I really dunno,"
Without saying another word, he quickly left her alone to tend to Gendo
and ran back down the tunnel. He couldn't bare to see Rei pained at the
sight of seeing Gendo seemingly hurt and unconscious. She had no idea
what was going on and had some form of connection toward Gendo so it was
obvious she would be bothered at the sight of him.
Once back down at GeoFront, Shinji was approached by Ranma, Ranma
having finished his task of carrying everyone up out of GeoFront. Because
Nerv hadn't gotten attacked once since the last time, Ranma had carried
his task out very quickly and efficiently.
The two of them found themselves standing in front of Nerv, the entire
structure of Nerv empty save for Ritsuko and Misato and Asuka, them still
in the command center. It was eerily quiet as they stood there in the
calm knee-high water.
"What would you like me to do next?" Ranma asked.
Shinji shrugged.
"We wait," he said, "That's all we can do. We wait for Ritsuko to
reprogram MAGI so we can self-destruct Nerv. After that, I'm heading for
Germany to get Unit-01. Frankly, after all I've been through, I can't
wait to get off this world,"
<all ive got so far...>
(Ranma somehow ends up in Middle Earth, the world of 'Lord of the Rings'.
He bumps in to a beautiful elf.)
Ranma: Hey, you know where this place called Mordor is?
Elf: Yes, why do you ask?
Ranma: (Pulls out ring)I'm supposed to chuck this ring in some volcano or
something. I accidentally appeared on this world landed on this hobbit
that was carrying the ring and killed him. His friends said I hafta carry
out this task. The friends were killed shortly after I appeared here
because I kept putting the ring on and making myself invisible and
playing pranks on everyone by making it seem like objects were hovering
through the air. How was I to know that there were these creatures
looking for the ring?
Elf: .........................
Ranma: Wow, you've got pointy ears like that archer guy that got killed
that was with the hobbit. I never bothered to ask that guy. Why do you
pointy ears?
Elf: That's because I'm an elf.
Ranma: An elf? Oh, so does that mean you're one of the people with the
responsibility of making presents for Santa Claus?
Elf: .........................
