NGE: Nobody Dies 2: The Reevival
 
#80
“Due to special
emergency circumstances, all lines are currently out of service.
Thank you.”


Blinking,
Shinji Ikari drops the phone, letting it hang, bouncing, off of the
line and the phone booth itself. He stares at it for a moment, as if
the receiver would hold the answer to the questions he had. As if
the receiver would explain to him where he is. Looking around,
spinning, there are a few things he notices.

First,
that the 'city' has no high buildings. Everything is flat, quaint.
There are no buildings higher than the three and four story apartment
buildings, and no people. But that isn't the problem.

The
problem is he knows everyone is in the shelters. He knows that the
other buildings are retracted, waiting for the signal to rise again.
He knows that, he knows the layout of the city, where where he is,
and he also knows how he knows that.

“Crap,”
he whispers, “Mirror. Mirror mirror mirror-”

He
runs back over to the phone booth, looking into the reflective
surface.

“Black
hair,” he says, looking at his hand, “And I'm not pale. Holy
crap, I'm not a Nephilim, am I-”

Wait.
Wait wait wait. This is both good and bad. Good, in that he's now
human again. Probably. But it's also bad. It's also bad because he
remembers the last time he was using a phone booth, and wearing the
sweatshirt and jeans he's wearing right now. Digging into his
pocket, he takes out a note. A note with an address, many blacked
out lines, and a single word.

'Come.'

“Oh,
shit.”

The
explosion rips through a building several blocks down. The VTOL
craft flies past, backwards, overhead, rippling out a swarm of
missiles at the unseen target. A lance of pink spears it, igniting
fuel and consuming it in an explosion.

“Oh,
shit!”

And
the entire apartment block collapses as the foot smashes into it, the
lime green giant leaning forward. It is massive, sixty meters tall.
Its head is a limp on its shoulders, the massive bone bird face
encompassing its eyes. Its form is a sick parody of the human body,
and as it turns from the latest kill it spots him, turns to him, sees
him.

Oh,
Shit!”

In normal circumstances, when faced down with a 60 meter tall
creature that, for a hobby, violates fleets with pink phallic laser
hand like a...well, complete failure of a metaphor, Shinji would then
use his nephilim phisiology to run at seventy miles per hour down the
street and away from the danger zone. Instead, he's currently human
again. Which is a problem, as that sense of relief does not save him
from Sachiel.

However, if he remembers correctly, something else will.

REI!” he screams/shrieks, “HELP!!!”

The hand of the Angel stops, reflecting off on an orange, octagonal
wall. Which then ripples, pulses, and pushes the Angel away, making
it stumble back as it considers what the Hell just happened.

Heee~ey.

Shinji turns. Standing behind him where a pale nephilim girl was
not standing before is now a pale nephilim girl. He sees no
ductwork. He also knows that Lilly was not alive back then, so his
only conclusion is that somehow, Rei can teleport. He does not know
if this comforts him.

“How do you know my naa~ame?” Rei asks, her smile a thin line on
her face.

So, Shinji thinks, How do I bullshit my way out of this?
What sort of elaborate lie do I tell Rei to maintain...wait, no.
This is Rei.


“I know you're my half sister created by Naoko Akagi to
kill me and my Mom,” he says, grabbing Rei by the shoulders, “You
have seven sisters in the Sheol section of NERV-1, you're half
created with Lilith and you have super powers that let you beat up
Angels on foot. I know all of this because I travelled through
time.”


Rei clasps her hands together, emitting a squealing, squeaking sound
at the utter insanity of Shinji's statement that could best be
described as a Reegasm. Which is around when Sachiel decides
to do something about it, stumbling forward at them.

“Right!” Rei says, “Gotta go!”

Grabbing Shinji by the arm, she takes off, running at a brisk pace
of forty miles per hour down the street, the Angel stumbling after
them in pursuit.

“So!” Rei yells, “Where's your Time Machine?”

“It's Ichi!” Shinji yells back, not nearly as frightened by this
situation than he was those months ago when it first happened to him,
but that's the effect of, say, doing this regularly, “Ichi's my
time machine! But I'm not sure if she still is, or if I'm the only
one who went back!”

“So, you know that Ichi's-”

“My baby sister that was absorbed into Unit-01? Yes!”

“Maaa~an I wanted to break that to you...”

“Trust me! I've had an interesting few months!”

A universe away, and Shinji Ikari can only watch in mute horror as
the entry plug fills with the fluid, smelling like blood, the copper
stench filling his nostrils as he tries, in vain, to hold his breath
against the oncoming tide of sloshing, heavy liquid. It fills up,
past his chest, past his chin, past his nose, as he finally gives in
and inhales. Like they said, it is breathable. Like they didn't
say, it feels...tastes...everything...horrible.

Oh, you big baby. Suck it up and deal.”

His eyes snap open. The 14 year old boy, clad in his school
uniform, the odd...alien...attachments on his head flickering on,
turns. The voice did not come from behind him, but all around him,
everywhere...

“Um...hello?”

Sh. I'm going through your memories...yep, this is the sucky
timeline. Mom's dead, Dad's a dick, you went to live with one of the
teachers Mom schooled with and he was a distant dickish dick who was
a big old dick. Great. I'll have to work on you while I'm here.”


The form materializes, forming almost out of the light reflected in
the LCL, but visible only to him. The girl, all of twelve years old,
in a green and white girls school uniform, her black hair tied back
into pig tails and a wide smile on her face, bends down and meets her
blue eyes with his own.

So! I'm Ichi Ikari, your baby sister turned teen sister
shunted into here from another timeline. A pleasure to meet you!”


EVA LAUNCH!”
