The Crazy One

[Mars Diner] “Hmm... is that so?” Strangelove smirked a bit. The mysterious woman in the dark sunglasses leaned forward on her elbows, staring at the two across from her. Lily and Haruka both would feel a sensation of the hairs on the back of their neck standing straight up, and a chill run through their bodies. Haruka grimaced, and suddenly slammed her hands down on the table with a resounding thud. “Enough doc! What have I told you about your little mind games?” Strangelove leaned back and laughed, covering her mouth with the back of a gloved hand. “You can't blame me for being cautious. Not all of us are as lax about security as you are, Haruka.” Strangelove reached into her vest and pulled out a small white employee ID and slid it across the table. “That will get you through security. What you're looking for is in Lab 21. If you're caught, you won't make it out alive and I won't lift a finger to help you. Understood?” [The Mother of Invention] “The faq?” Kimi tilted her head, but watched as Felix started to glow. Then she was tackled and knocked backwards, groaning as she quickly pushed Hammah away from her. “Hey what the hell! I can take some wimpy explosion!” […] “... What the hell?” Michigan blinked, and then moved forward, looking down at the mechanical remains. He bent down and picked up one of the charred components, letting his robotic eyes scan it and record every detail into the hard drive connected to his brain. “This just keeps getting stranger.” [Haven] “I had some cold pizza this morning.” Rica shrugged absently. He leaned back against the wall as he looked down at Laila, smiling at her for a moment before turning his attention back to Ethan. “Ha-ha-ha.” Rica laughed at Kanna's comment about the shelves. “At least one of us isn't vertically challenged.” […] “... I really don't think this is a good idea.” At one of the bustling spaceports of Haven, a small ship had just landed and the newest batch of people coming to the colony had poured out down the ramps. Among them were two young woman who just from outward appearances couldn't be more different. The first was shorter, wearing dark-rimmed glasses and a stylized shirt with a cobra wrapped around a star. Her hair was up in twin-tails and was dyed an off-purple shade. She was whistling quietly as she skipped off the landing pad, seemingly high on life. The second was a taller woman wearing an oversized hoodie and jeans and moving as anti-socially as possible. She wore dark sunglasses over her eyes and grumbled quietly as she walked beside her bubbly friend. “Come on Robin, we're already here! You can't change your mind now.” The happier girl practically laughed. “Besides... we don't have much of a choice. If they're the ones, they're the ones...” “... Fine, but it's going to be awkward. I can promise you that, Kagura.” Robin sighed as the two set off... [Zoness Facility] Rei bit down on her lip. She hated to do this. It went against everything she had come to learn while traveling with the clone. It went against the person she desperately wanted to be – but it was also the only hope she had at the moment. She closed her eyes and mumbled, and as she did a WHOOSH of invisible psychic energy cascaded through the water towards both the child-like Rei and the claw-handed clone, a burst of pure psychic energy designed for one purpose; to completely destroy the brains of whatever it touched! […] Asuka stared at Gendo as Omega released the grip on his mouth and then she narrowed her eyes. For a moment, all she could think about was the desire to see him dead on the floor in front of her – but she knew this situation called for more tact. “... I don't know if there's even a shred of humanity left in you after everything you've done, but all of this is your fault. You need to clean this mess up. I doubt Yui is going to come along quietly, but she wants you – she wants you to see all of this. You have one chance to talk her down.” Asuka glanced at Didymus. “We send him in first. Maybe she listens to him, maybe she kills him, either way her focus is on something besides releasing the toxins or killing us and gives us time to take her down with non-lethal fire.” |

-Haven- Ethan smirked, shaking his head at Rica, “Despite my lack of height, I bet I could jump a lot higher then you.” He hummed softly as he finished cooking, preparing three plates, placing them on the table, one burger for each of them. “Dig in,” Ethan said. Jacob laughed warmly, “Oh, do forgive this old man for his words, I don't mean to make you nervous.” He smiled, then paused as Melanie asked the question. “I was... Twenty-six. I met Aleksandra back in college, we dated for about six years before I finally got the nerve to pop the question,” Jacob answered. -Mars Diner- Lily glared back, her electricity sparking when she felt the chill in her body, a natural reaction to the chill. Then it died down, and she took a deep breath, smoothing her hair down some. “And this will get both of us in?” Lily asked, looking at the ID. -The Mother of Invention- Felix seemed to explode as well, the doors containing him blowing outwards some, but managing to hold. “That almost blew a hole in my ship, you couldn't have taken that!” Hammah yelled back, shaking his head. As Michigan scanned the debris, he'd find very little in terms of clues. The explosion had done it's job in getting rid of any evidence. Texas paused, looking at the debris for a long moment, then turned towards Jimi, Sama, and the others outside the ship. “So... you all, stand down, now.” |

Zoness Facility As Jagan made his way down the base's hall, it seemed eerily quiet, much like when he first arrived, but with even fewer systems online. Yet an air of malice seemed to hang over the facility, as if this was merely the calm before a great storm... ...additionally, Sonic had sped away down the passage to his right, noticing a similar feel to the facility. Occassionally, he (and Jagan) would see that same repeated message on the rare screen that was still active, whenever HE would run by. Translated, it would read: "Mobius is already doomed; you cannot outrun the demon in the machine..." Jagan, on the other hand, would see a different message: 01010100 01101000 01100101 00100000 01100101 01101101 01110000 01110100 01111001 00100000 01110011 01101100 01100001 01110100 01100101 00100000 01101000 01100001 01110011 00100000 01101110 01101111 00100000 01100111 01110010 01101111 01110101 01101110 01100100 01101001 01101110 01100111 00101100 00100000 01100001 01101110 01100100 00100000 01100101 01110110 01100101 01101110 00100000 01110100 01101000 01100101 00100000 01100110 01101001 01100101 01110010 01100011 01100101 01110011 01110100 00100000 01100111 01110010 01101111 01110101 01101110 01100100 01101001 01101110 01100111 00100000 01100011 01100001 01101110 01101110 01101111 01110100 00100000 01101000 01101111 01101100 01100100 00100000 01100001 01100111 01100001 01101001 01101110 01110011 01110100 00100000 01110100 01101000 01100101 00100000 01100011 01101111 01101101 01101001 01101110 01100111 00100000 01110111 01100001 01110110 01100101 00101110 00101110 00101110 And sure enough, the two began to draw ever closer to each other, looking like they were liable to meet from two different directions of a 3-way junction... --- As the psionic energy burst foward from Rei, the clone with the eldritch-looking arms was swept away. The one with the swollen head screamed, and the head exploded, leaving her stunted body headless... The force constricting Rei vanished, and the other clone appeared to be being carried away by the current, with no air bubble around her... --- Didymus listed to Asuka's plan, and looked to be deep in thought. It was risky. Letting him go in first... "...I don't know, that may be adding an unstable element to an already unstable situation..." he said. He looked around-the halls, though still dark, were much cleaner now that they were approaching an area of the base that it was apparent Yui inhabited. Among other things, pictures of Shinji could be seen adorning the walls, or Ikari family pictures-with Gendo scratched out of them. "Rats...Crusader, come in." he called up. "Can we get a reading on whether or not the toxin controls are still online?" he said into their comlink. "We're not seeing anything..." Misato's voice sounded back. "...wait...something faint. Some manner of signal broadcaster from...on or inside...Ikari's body?" "What?" Didymus asked. "You mean..." "We can't tell to what." Misato responded. "But she may well have it linked to her vitals." "Crap." Didymus said. "Insurance. She dies, something bad happens. Also, is my mech ready? This little creation of hers may be trouble." "Yes sir." Misatoa answered. "...shall we prepare one for Soryu as well?" Didymus paused, briefly. "...yes." Finally, they approached a hallway with a reinforced door. "According to our scans...Yui Ikari should be in the room beyond these doors. Whether or not she has control of her toxins, I don't know. But the possibility that she DOES means..." He paused. Asuka's plan was crazy, but it had merit to it-something to distract Yui could be most useful. And they may well NEED the extra time to take her down non-lethally if indeed she had a trigger connected to her vital signs. "Alright..." he said over the comlink again. "...good idea, Asuka. I think. I hope, at least. Omega...here's the plan. First, check Gendo for any other devices he may have-force field emitters, communicators, weapons, any of that. And remove them. Then...we send him in to confront his wife." This was all over the comlink-Gendo would, barring some manner of hacking or something, have not heard any of the previous discussion. "Alright, Asuka. We'll give it a shot. And YOU." he looked to Gendo. "I have orders to terminate you if I believe the alternative is your escape. The only thing keeping you alive is your cooperation. If you can talk down your wife, you may well be able to get out of this alive. Try anything funny, though...and your chances of that drop to ZERO." he said. "I say this not to intimidate you, but simply to ensure you understand your situation." Of course, he thought, there was no guarentee Gendo would even agree to work with them on this. If not...they'd have to do something else. He spoke on the comlink again. "When we're all ready to send him in, take up positions outside of the door or any nearby camera's sights and we'll prep to breach and clear." he said. "That said..." he paused again. "...Asuka, how likely is it that Yui had a chance to learn some way to screw with your head? I just want to be prepared. Otherwise...let's send our guest on, if he's willing." With that, Didymus took up a position and waited, waited to see what would happen. |

-Haven- Kanna couldn't help but give a tiny smile at the banter between the two men as she sat down to eat. She paused for a moment (much perfering a drink to the burger in front of her) but decided to try to be a good sport. She poked at the burger and then took a bite. "It's....Not bad" She finally decided. [...] “I was... Twenty-six. I met Aleksandra back in college, we dated for about six years before I finally got the nerve to pop the question,” Jacob answered. "That's so sweet" Melanie said after a moment, looking to Galv's grandfather. Both her mother and brother had children rather young, so the idea of actually dating that long was strange....But sweet. "Though I dunno if we could avoid my mom's wrath for quite that long...." |

-Zoness Facility- Sonic jogged along at a fast pace, looking around to try and collect as much data as possible, along with seeing if he heard anything. Fox breathed heavily, keeping the energy bubble up, glancing towards the others. “We need to find a way back inside, I can't keep this up too much longer without some rest,” Fox said. Omega paused for a moment, glancing over Gendo, then using his hands to pat him down. “I do wish to inform you, Comrade Didymus, I am not really equipped to scan for these sorts of devices on this scum here,” Omega said, doing what he could though. -Haven- Ethan smiled at Kanna's compliment, knowing that was praise from the woman. “I could come over and cook more often, if you'd like,” Ethan offered. Jacob smirked, shaking his head, “Well, sometimes it takes people some time to be sure. For you two... it seems you ran into each other early in your life. As long as you two are sure, then you have my blessings, for whatever this old man's thoughts are worth.” |

-Haven- "Well, sometimes it takes people some time to be sure. For you two... it seems you ran into each other early in your life. As long as you two are sure, then you have my blessings, for whatever this old man's thoughts are worth.” Melanie's eyes widened, her cheeks turning bit pink. "R-Really?" she asked, completely caught off guard. After all it seemed as if the universe wanted to keep she and Galv apart. Everyone either thought they were too young or that Galv was secretly evil and was going to drag her off to NERV. It was weird that the man barely knew them, but actually trusted their judgement. "T-Thank you" she said, grabbing Galv's hand. "I really do love him. I already know he's my person...Nobody else" [...] "Maybe...." Kanna asked with a slight smirk, motioning to the children. "I'm sure they'll appreciate it too, they're almost old enough to start eating after all" |

Mad Scientist / Head of Intel Division

[Zoness Facility] Jagan made his way up and away from the chamber where he encountered the not-Rei, his visor on and keeping tabs on his surrounding area and providing a proper heads-up display of his environs. Automatic translation of binary code from screens gave a message that Jagan didn't pay any attention to, focusing entirely on the mission at this point, which was the location of his ally. Well... Hopefully still ally. He still couldn't access his mind-link without twinges of pain, but it was there now, and he could FEEL the other mind on the other side again, a feeling that he would honestly say he missed if he had been given the chance to think of it. But at the moment, that was of little consequence. He made checks on everything he wore at the moment, checking the control surfaces on his tech suit for damage, ammo supply, gadget supply, and that everything was still in order. The only red light on his screen was the lack of connectivity with the Andromeda through data transmission means, but that just meant that he needed to activate a quantum tunneler at some point to send data across if worst came to worst. He was also running somewhat low on equipment with four the ten drones he had down and the majority of his grenade and mine supplies exhausted. Suddenly, the red light disappeared from his HUD and all the data he had collected from his observers was immediately compiled and sent straight to the mech, which acted as a relay and sent the transmission out just as quickly, finally getting him in direct contact with home servers on board the Apocalypse. With the data linked, Jagan also sent a backup of his observer black-box data recording and automated mission log. With that sorted, he moved on. Now, he was following the faint directional feeling he got from the link, trying to find a path up to wherever the real Rei was at the moment... That's when he turned a corner and once more ran into Sonic. He paused where he stood, weapons loosely held in his hands, but ready for whatever might happen. His last encounter with the blue hedgehog had been tense enough and they DID have a tentative alliance of sorts then, but now was a different story. And Jagan never assumed.

[Haven] “Maybe.” Rica shrugged as he sat down and took a bite. He watched the other two for a moment, and was fairly amused that it had come to this. After all that had transpired over the last few years, here they were, eating almost like some kind of highly dysfunctional family. “Not bad at all.” [The Mother Of Invention] “Blah, blah, blah, all I heard was 'I'm lame and underestimate far superior people'.” Kimi rolled her eyes. Sama turned and looked at Texas, and he shook his head. “I don't think so. I have no reason to fight you, but I'm not about to be your prisoner either.” [Mars Diner] “... I wasn't prepared for two of you.” Strangelove admitted. “However, you should be alright. It will at least get you inside, but it won't hold up to much muster anyway. So once you're in I'd advise you... stick to the shadows.” Haruka chuckled. “In other words, we need to avoid security. Got it.” [Zoness Facility] Asuka sighed. She knew this plan was risky, but if they could distract Yui, then they could neutralize her in a way that wouldn't set off the toxins... hopefully. “I really can't say, Didymus. I wouldn't put it past her to know Gendo's tricks...” She admitted. “I can wait here if you prefer.” Gendo, meanwhile, was the picture of calmness and civility. He waited until Omega had taken the hand away from his mouth and then he spoke very quietly. “I am perfectly aware of the situation, Colonel. Now let me talk to my wife.” |

Zoness Facility As Sonic and Jagan came closer to each other and, eventually, came into contact, the screens around them became active again. ...which was odd, as there seemed to be no power in this part of the facility, save for some token emergency lights and life support. They displayed another message, repeating over and over, and scrolling by quickly, as if with great urgency or eagerness: 01001101 01101111 01110100 01101000 01100101 01110010 00100111 01110011 00100000 01100010 01101001 01110010 01110100 01101000 00100000 01101001 01110011 00100000 01110101 01110000 01101111 01101110 00100000 01110101 01110011 00100001 00100001 00100001 00100000 01001000 01100001 01101001 01101100 00100000 01110100 01101111 00100000 01110100 01101000 01100101 00100000 01100100 01100101 01101101 01101111 01101110 00100000 01101001 01101110 00100000 01110100 01101000 01100101 00100000 01101101 01100001 01100011 01101000 01101001 01101110 01100101 00100001 00100001 00100001 00100000 01001000 01100001 01101001 01101100 00100000 01110100 01101111 00100000 01110100 01101000 01100101 00100000 01101101 01100001 01100011 01101000 01101001 01101110 01100101 00100000 01110100 01101000 01100001 01110100 00100000 01100010 01110010 01101001 01101110 01100111 01110011 00100000 01110100 01101000 01100101 00100000 01100100 01100101 01101101 01101111 01101110 00100001 00100001 00100001 Despite this, the facility seemed quiet...save, perhaps, for the creaking and groaning of a great machine, deep inside the facility...as if a great beast was struggling to move and break free of constraints... ...this contributed to the air of malice that seemed to hang over the dark, decrepit corridor. But for now, the facility's unwholesome guardians appeared to be leaving Sonic and Jagan alone. Still, despite the relative quiet (save for the creaking and groaning), and the low power (save for the machine at the center that power was being channeled into)...there seemed to be energy in the air. --- Outside, as Fox, Rei, and Mari began to get their bearings (and Fox looked for a way back inside the non-flooded part of the facility), Fox's communicator, if he had one, would have sounded off. It appeared that Acorn Palace as attempting to reach him...of course, the call would still be there if he deemed it best to get inside the facility again first so that he could answer without having to maintain the air pockets around himself and his companions... --- Outside Yui's control room, Didymus heard some creaking and some groaning... "That thing...is warming up..." he said. "And understood, Omega. Thank you for trying." When Asuka spoke, he looked in thought for a moment, before speaking again, on the secure comm channel that was established between Omega, Asuka's suit, and his own. "My tactician's sense is telling me that that would be best...but...you stood up to it once. You said no to it. And maybe you could try filtering out external audio via your suit's helmet." He nodded to her. "You're with us, Asuka. Let's fall or stand together, all three of us, shall we?" Finally, Gendo spoke. "...very well. Get in there and distract her, get her gaze away from the door." Didymus said openly, off the channel. On the private comm channel again, he spoke to Asuka and Omega once more. "Alright, here we go...if he can get he distracted, give us a chance to take down Yui nonlethally...we go for it. If not...well, just be ready to either storm that room or get out of here pronto...we good?" Inside the room, Yui was muttering to herself, working into a frenzy... "...come on come on come on come ON! This...this is it...what I've worked for...the fruit of my labors...THIS is my giving BIRTH! THIS is when my child shall make her MARK!" Apart from a small pistol she had on a control console in front of her, she appeared to have no personal security... |

-Haven- Jacob smiled, nodding, “That being said, I don't want you two making any rash mistakes. If you're unsure about something, I hope you two will come to me, okay?” Ethan smiled, glad his cooking was being enjoyed. “I'll... be sure to teach them how to cook too,” Ethan said. -The Mother of Invention- “Then we will have to-” Texas began, when the doors to the hangar opened, an older man in glasses and bright green eyes stepped in, wearing a suit. “Stand down, Agent Texas,” the Director said as he moved forward. “You are not under arrest, but you are on my ship. There are questions that must be asked. Your ship is damaged, so you can't leave as it is without my help.” “Unfortunately... he has a point,” Hammah said, frowning at Kimi for a moment. “We need some supplies to fix things here...” -Mars Diner- “I see...” Lily said, nodding. “In my experience, usually once you get in the front door, they don't usually look too close.” -Zoness Facility- Sonic paused as he saw Jagan, looking up towards the man. “Oh, you again!” Sonic said, “We're not fighting, right? If you wanna, can it wait until we stop all this crazy stuff first at least?” “Must be relaying from my ship...” Fox said, noticing he had a message. He would have o get to it later, finding an access point to get himself and the others back into he base... Omega placed Gendo down, pointing two of his fingers at his optics, then pointing them towards Gendo. “If we must proceed with force,” Omega said, 'speaking' over the private comm link so Gendo wouldn't hear. “I volunteer to go first.” |

[Zoness Facility] The moment Omega put him down, Gendo simply smirked and adjusted his suit jacket. “You know, however this plays out, I know my time is limited. Perhaps Yui will kill me, perhaps you will, or perhaps your government will. One way or another I've made peace with the fact that my life is almost over... but my work will live on. You have no idea.” Gendo stepped forward, walking into the room. “Yui! This has gone on long enough. Shut down your machines and lets go home.” [The Mother Of Invention] Sama sighed, rubbing his neck. Between these guys and Kimi he felt like he was wedged between a rock and a hard place. “Look, the last thing we want is more trouble, alright? This whole thing has been several misunderstandings. We don't want to fight, but I can't simply ask my people to turn over their weapons, either. So we'll keep them holstered, how's that?” [Mars Diner] “Exactly!” Haruka replied with a grin, rubbing her hands together. “Security is all about keeping people out; but people trust it so much that once you're in, they stop paying attention. Pretty stupid, really, but then so are people.” |

-Zoness Facility- Omega gave Gendo his best glare as he headed into the room, quite prepared to fire all weapons if need be. “Comrade Didymus, I am prepared...” Omega said to his commanding officer. -The Mother of Invention- Everything seemed tense, Texas ready to jump back in at a word from the Director, who eyed them all carefully. “Fine. My agents here are armed and in the latest powered armor. But if you draw a weapon or make any threatening move...” The Director threatened, then turned. “Follow me.” He would lead everyone into the ship, leading them to a large conference room. There was what looked like a scoreboard on one wall, the name 'Texas' on top, followed by 'Carolina' then 'York' then 'Washington.' “What were you doing in this sector of space?” The Director asked. “We caught the distress signal from the facility... we thought we should help,” Hammah explained. -Mars Diner- Lily nodded slightly, glancing towards Haruka, then the woman in front of them. “I guess you want this done as soon as possible?” |

I'll bite your legs off!

Zoness Facility Didymus was silent as Gendo walked into the control room, but when Omega spoke, he nodded. "Thank you, Omega..." he paused for a moment. "...but I may have a different chore for you." He spoke on the com-link to the Crusader. "Crusader, remind me, are the base's facilities offline?" Misato's voice responded, audible to Didymus, Asuka, and Omega. "With the exception of the power charging into that central...evangelion...and the systems overseeing it." Misato said, clearly unsettled by what was charging in the center of the facility. "...we're also getting a reading from Yui herself-some manner of vital signs monitor. And we ALSO have a minor energy signal from the various toxin discharge units. Possible link between the two." Didymus spoke again. "But the base monitoring systems are offline?" "Yes." Misato's reply came. Didymus sighed, and was quiet for a moment. "Alright...here's the deal." He looked to Omega. "Omega...I need you to take the bombs we have-the ones we were sent in with, planted at the right locations which should be already downloaded to your own system now, especially with the Crusader's more recent scans of the facility-should be enough to completely destroy the toxins as they are in-tank, without further harm to the planetary ecosystem." He reached into his suit's own munitions storage areas/pouches/backpacks, and fished out the bombs they'd been sent with-the ones he was carrying, anyway. "Asuka, give Omega your bombs, and when you have them all...Omega, I need you to make your way through the facility, to all three toxin discharge locations, and plant the bombs in the target areas. When they're in place...then set them off. Well, at least, when you're at a safe distance. Asuka and I...I want to keep an eye on this situation with the Ikaris, and I don't want to leave Asuka alone...heck, it may be best to have at least two of us still here to keep an eye on the Ikaris unless we need two targets taken down at once." He paused. "I really hate to send you off on your lonesome like this, Omega, but with the cameras down, this could be our best chance to neutralize the toxins while Yui's not looking and therefore before she has a chance to set them loose. I don't know HOW long you've got, so move as quickly as you can..." He gave Omega a grin. "But something tells me you relish the opportunity for a challenge like this, especially if there are more of those monsters around, hmm?" He looked to Asuka. "As for us...we'd best keep an eye on this...but...how are you feeling, Asuka? In control of yourself? I WANT to give you your weapon back, but I need to be sure you won't point it at me. That said, of course, if he tries to control you again, you've got my permission to blow him away." Inside the control room, Yui's back straightened up when Gendo called her. But she didn't turn to face him. "Husband!" she exclaimed. "How sweet! You've shown up for MY daughter's birth! Or...rebirth, to be more precise." She turned so that she could look over her shoulder at him, wearing a wide, insane grin. "I've raised Sakura without you, I'm sure you don't mind...just be glad at least ONE of MY children had at least ONE parent to raise them." A small giggle escaped her. "But you don't get to give me orders, not anymore. I believed in your work and even your promise of a family and everything we did...believED. Past tense. Not anymore. Besides, what position do you think you're in to give me orders?" She laughed again, and turned to face him. "And what delusion are you in to think I would even listen anymore? You truly have simply IGNORED everything that's happened since you arrived, haven't you?!" Her expression showed all at once insane joy...and immense sorrow. "Don't you get it?! I hate you. I. HATE. YOU. You destroyed my children. Your work which I believed in, which you had me along for, which I HELPED with, DESTROYED my very ability to give life! That's ALL you've done! Played with life like it's yours to mold or destroy without so much as a thought to your own family! You may have bent MY SON to your will...but as a MOTHER, I will not let you do the same to MY daughter!" "So, did you overpower those soldiers somehow, or have they sent you in here out of the misguided notion that you can somehow stop this?" She flung an arm behind her, indicating the Eva 2.0 that was still charging. "As you can see, as you SAW, I IMPROVED upon your work in a manner that surpassed it all entirely! A mother's touch, a labor of love for my daughter. You may have attempted to squelch out my children, but no, Sakura...my daughter...she will not be subjected. She will not be silenced. She will be unleashed, and ALL of civilization that you profess to love will perish at her spread! SUCH WILL BE MY LEGACY AS A MOTHER!!!" She cackled now, the passion and insanity of her vision taking hold of her. "You can't stop it." she said. "But if you'd like to stand here, and watch everything you've worked for be surpassed and destroyed by everything that you've scorned and tossed aside...I MIGHT be willing to tolerate it. And Sakura MIGHT, as well." She smiled sweetly at him. "Oh, and don't think killing me will help. My death can't stop this, and the console can only recognize MY commands-you of all people are locked out now. This maybe USED to be your domain, but now it's mine. I've made all the necessary adjustments..." |

[The Mother Of Invention] “That's pretty much what we do.” Sama added, as he glanced around the room. He didn't like this situation at all. “Look, we're Plumbers, okay? We go where we're needed and try to help out. It's as simple as that. Whoever you people are and whatever you're doing – I really don't care about it.” [Mars Diner] “It has to be done soon.” Strangelove explained. “... There's been a recent development. A big one.” Haruka shrugged. “I'm not interested in all the crazy smurf you guys are doing at the lab. I just need to retrieve the idiot.” [Zoness Facility] “You're wrong, Yui. About so much.” Gendo said quietly, as he stared at her. He had largely ignored her rants. There was little point in listening to her, just as there was little point in trying to escape from the soldiers. He knew the situation he was in... but he was fine with it. “I was wrong too. You. Shinji. Rei... no, no Rei was the one thing I was right about.” Gendo smiled softly. He shrugged his shoulders. “I could not escape from the soldiers, or from you. Kill me if you will, but understand before you do that you will be throwing away your one chance at a future. These soldiers will kill you. They will kill Sakura. They will destroy this facility, and destroy what remains of the EVA. NERV's legacy will die here beneath the waves.” His smile began to grow. “... Unless, of course, you help me. There is a way for us to get out of this, and there is a future. I have seen the future. Quite frankly, Yui, I have seen things you cannot imagine. The end of Earth, and of the human race. I have seen it – and it's not as far off as you think. These pointless squabbles of ours are nothing compared to what I have seen.” He sighed. “... For all my faults, for all of OUR faults, we did always speak of a better future. Everything we sacrificed was for that. We still have a chance. I have already done what I must to insure that I will live on, at least in some way. Whatever you do to me today is irrelevant. Death or imprisonment – neither means an ending for me. I can give you the same eternity, Yui, you need only trust me as you once did.” […] Asuka looked to Didymus and sighed. “I'm fine, I think... honestly... and besides, you can't handle both of them on your own.” |

-Zoness Facility- Omega saluted, getting the bombs from Didymus and Asuka and adding them to his own compliment. “I will accomplish the mission, Comrade Didymus. And once I return successful I will defeat that EVA if it's active as well!” Omega boasted, a twinkle in his glowing eyes as he headed off, using his boosters to increase his speed. -The Mother of Invention- “Oh... Plumbers,” the Director said, annoyance becoming even clearer in his voice. “That meddlesome group.” “So... you've heard of us,” Hammah said, sighing. “We were just investigating that distress signal. We were on our way somewhere else. We met this A.I., Delta...” The Director frowned, shaking his head. “Delta broke protocol... but... it was the logical thing to do, given the circumstances.” He looked intently at them. “I will be frank with you. The fact you know about Delta is... troublesome.” “A.I. development is very heavily frowned upon by the U.T.R.,” Jimi said, “Like... firing squad frowned upon.” Hammah looked a little uncomfortable for a moment. “Delta is not a full A.I. He's... more of a pseudo-A.I.,” The Director explained. “Not... complete...” -Mars Diner- “...What kind of development?” Lily asked, looking curious. “If people are focused on that, it might help us get it.” |
