Destiny and Time:
Chapter 2


"SHINJI.. NO!!" Asuka jumped as she woke up, "*pant* it's
just a dream... it's just a dream..."

"What the hell was that" Misato crashed in through the
door, "are u ok??"

"Umm.. ya... i guess.. just a dream"

"Whoa, you scared the crap outta me there, so tell me..
what's this dream about huh"

"Oh.. umm i thought that Shinji disa... nevermind..."

"Hmmm...." Misato looked grim and then left the room.

"Heh, just a dream right..." Asuka muttered under her
breath as she stood up and walked towards the bathroom.


******twenty minutes later******

"Hey Misato, where's breakfast??"Asuka glanced around the
room to only find a empty table and Misato sitting like a
statue, "and where IS that baka shinji??"

"Shinji...is....isn...isn't...here..." as the purple headed
major stare blankly at the table.

"Oh god.... it wasn't a dream..."


*******************************

*I'll never get used to these beds* Shinji thought as HE
woke up from his sleep.

"Ahh.. I see your awake Shinji" Shinji looked up and is
greeted by the face of Kensu.

"Umm... your Kensu right...."

"Yup, the one and only" He let out a small laugh but then
quickly reverted to a serious expression, "I have a favor
to ask of you"

"Huh?? but.."

"Don't tell Chron or anyone else for that matter your real name"

"But.."

"Just don't ok, and I told him that your Shinto, sorry if it's
sounds bad but it's the only name i can come up with in a few
seconds so bear with it ok??"

"Umm... sure.... i guess so..."

Silence spread as the two strangers just stood there thinking
about there next move.

*Ok Shinji, say something.... say what?? What the hell are you
suppose to say to someone that isn't even born when you where
alive*

*Think Kensu, what are u suppose to say to a person that is
suppose to have been dead for 100 years*

It was good that Chron has crashed in through the door just at
that moment or else, Shinji thought back, they would just sit
there and say nothing to each other.

"Hey guys, wanna grab something to eat, i'm starving"

"Your always hungery Chron now let Shinto go to the bathroom for
christ sake, he's gonna burst in a matter of seconds"

*I seriously hate that name*
"Heh...."

"Oh right, well i can't wait, meet u guys at the cafe ok??"

"Sure.. meet u there"

"..."

"Well aren't u gonna go to the bathroom??"

"Oh right..."


*******************************


After he was finished in the bathroom, Shinji was still drowzy and
was walking in a crooked line (just imagine Misato after her 10th
beer).

"Whoa.. you ok there, it seems like u just came back from a bar"

Looking up, Shinji found himself staring at the most beautiful girl
in the world, or so he thought at that moment. It took him some time
til he realize that he was staring at the long haired brunette and
looked as if he was undressing her with his eyes which, obviously
was giving the girl a hard time.

"Umm... h-hi... m-m-my name is..umm..."

"Your that pilot right, Shinto..."

*Right.. I almost forgot about that*
"Umm... yeah...umm...so, you had breakfast yet....if u didn't you would
you join us.." Shinji felt hot.. real hot as he said that, but just to
be on the safe side he quickly added, "that is if u ate already then
sorry to bot.."

"I'd love to join you, who else is coming??"

"REALLY!?!?!"

Slowly lifting his head, he realize that the girl infront of him is doing
the exact same thing as he is doing, *This is gotta be a dream, this is
gotta be a dream*

"Yeah, i'll like that," by this time, they were both staring at each other
as if they were hypnotized, "so who's going with you, i thought u said us"

"Huh?.. oh, Kensu and Chron are coming too"

Shinji frowned a bit as the girl groaned and rolled her eyes, "Not those
two"

"What's wrong with those two??"

"There is only one word to describe them, perverts"

*She is suddenly sounding like Asuka.... I kinda miss her.. what the hell
am i thinking, she is the personification of the devil himself*

"Hey Shinto, Earth to Shinto"

"Huh?? wha.. Oh sorry"

"Heh, you look cute when your thinking"

*Please tell me this is a dream*
"Umm... heh, thanks i guess"

"Hey no problem"

"Hey, i still don't know your name"

"Oh right, My name is Kasumi, nice ta meet ya"

"I'm.."

"I know your name, so can we get some breakfast yet, i'm starving"

"Well if u don't like Kensu and Chron that much, why are u coming along??"

Kasumi thought for a while and just said plainly, "I'll tell u later ok"
and flashed him a smile and a wink.

*Please tell me this is a dream*

*******************************


"Hey what kept ya Shinj..." Kensu did a double take, "Ka-ka-kasumi?! What are
YOU doing here"

"What do u think Kensu joining you three at breakfast so u won't smear your
perverted thoughts on Shinto here"

"Umm.. that's nice of you Kasumi... heh" all Shinji can do is think *Is she the
equivalent of Asuka in this era*

"Hey, who are you calling pervert"

*It seems Kensu is... why the hell am I comparing these guys with my friends.
I've got to stop this*

"HEY SHINTO"

"AH" Shinji jumped a bit as he heard his "second name"

"CAN we go to get somthing to eat YET, if we don't, Chron will eat that resturant
til it goes bankrupted"

"This is just great, the reincarnation of Touji and Asuka"

Shinji shuttered at that thought as he quickly dash to catch up with Kensu and
Kasumi.


*******************************


"Man, you guys really need to speed up, I've already eatten five pancakes already"

Sweatdrops fell as Chron mentioned this

"Is he always like this" whispered Shinji to Kensu as they watch in fasination of
as Chron cram a whole pancake down his mouth without choking

"Yup, it never ceases to amaze"

"If u keep this up, your EVA will think your another person haha"

"HEY, it's a good pancake"

"Yeah, like you don't eat alot Kasumi"

"Oh really huh, do I need to shove this knife down your throat!!"

*Heh, breakfast is just the same here compared to 100 years ago, Asuka arguing with
Touji and Kensuke and me just sitting there, the next thing i know, i'll be
pulled into this*

"Don't u think so Shinto", Shinji snapped out of his trance and found himself
stuck with a decision, to agree with his new found friends or the cute girl
looking at him with puppy eyes

"Oh great.. another Asuka"

"Huh, who's Asu-who??" Kensu frowned a bit, "so who DO u agree with, us or this
crazy monster who claims to be a human"

Shinji groaned


*******************************


Asuka slowly walked in silence back home from school.

*I wonder what Shinji is doing*

Staring at the blue sky all the red head can think about is how is roommate
is doing.

*That Baka, leaving like that, now i need to suffer Misato's "cooking"
and no one is gonna clean up the mess me and Misato makes and.. and*

"Whoa, is the demon really crying"

Asuka glared back at the speaker,"Who's crying? well i can tell you,
Kensuke, that in a matter of seconds you'll be the one crying...
Crying for mercy" and then she went after him

"He'll never learn", Touji shook his head and went after his fellow stooge
as the demoness chased after him.


*******************************


"Soooo... Shinto, where are u from?" Kasumi is litterly burning through
Kensu and Chron with her glare as they walked.

"Heh.. umm.. i came from.. Tokyo 2"

"REALLY WOW, YOU WALKED ALL THE WAY TO TOKYO 3!!!"

"Umm.. yeah.. i guess.."

"The glare.. the glare... the glare, crucify her, crucify her i tell ya"

"Ok Chron, do u really have a death wish or are you just plain stupid"

"Chron I really think you should stop", Shinji glanced nervously
at Kasumi's expression quickly changing from scary to Satanic.

"Oh no, she's got him under her pinky, where all doomed"

Kasumi growled as she heard the comment "YOU are dead Chron"

"AAAHHHHHHHH, GAIN WAY"

"COME BACK HERE YOU... YOU..."

"Yup.. another Asuka"

"Say Shinji, who's Asuka"

"Oh.. umm she's, well she's the pilot of EVA unit 02 at my time.. say
what did happen to her"

"OOOHHH... so that's where i heard of her name, the "Eva goddess" as she
claims to be"

"How did u know that?"

"Personal files... they tell u everything"

"Heh, they tell anything about me"

"Well actually, all your info is classified and i can't get enough
clearance"

"So really, what happened to her??"

"Well she was killed in one of the battles with an angel, well she killed
herself to be exact"

*No.... not Asuka.. how can she*

"Whoa, are you ok Shinji, you look sick"

"I'm.. I'm... ok", lied Shinji, "I-I think.. i'll...go back and get some
rest...."

"Ok Shinji, if you say so"


*******************************


"Hey Kensu", Kasumi said as she dragged Chron's beaten body with her,
"where's Shinto??"

"Umm.. he said he want's to go back and rest a bit"

"That's odd, it's only 3", Kasumi glanced at Kensu, "is it something you
said, if it is, i'll rip your heart out"

"He was tired, he said after all that walking from Tokyo 2 has drained him
more than he had thought"
*that was a pathetic lie*

"Your lucky this time, I'll get u next time"

*At least she brought it* Kensu let out a sigh of relieve

"When she says that, she means it Kensu, watch out"

"Why don't u save your breath Chron or do u need another beating"

"NO MORE, PLEASE, NO MORE"

"Much better"

"So what do you guys wanna do now, I heard there is some old game from
pre 2nd impact in that arcade and it's really popular right now, wanna
try it out"

Trying not to think too much about Shinji's reaction to what
he said Kensu decided to go alone with Kasumi's plan and followed Kasumi
and Chron towards the arcade where a bright neon sign says "DDR AND OTHER
PRE IMPACT GAME PLAY IT HERE"


*******************************


"Asuka, I thought your stonger than that, why would you get killed by
an Angel", Shinji muttered, "is it because there is not enought back
up, damnit damnit damnit damnit, it's all my fault, if I didn't come
here, she'll won't die like that, she would've stayed alive"

"ASUKA" Shinji screamed as he fell to the floor from exhastion


*******************************


*That Shinto guy's really cute, I wonder how he knew he can pilot Unit
01* Kasumi sighed out loud at the thought of Shinto/Shinji *Shinto...*

"Lieutenant, please don't daydream during your shift"

"Right, sorry ma'am i won't do it again"

*Man, that bitch really has to get a life, I can't even sigh. I bet
Shinto would agree with me on that..."

"Lieutenant, I thought i told you to not daydream on your shift"

"Sorry ma'am", Kasumi frowned, *how does she do that, is she really
a demon that can read minds*, she took a quick glance at her commanding
officer and shuttered *if she is a demon, i guess i'll be dead right now*
The Brunette Lieutenant quietly giggled at her own joke.

"I heard that giggle"

*Damn, I hate the night shift and I HATE my cold hearted son of a bitch
Commanding officer.... this sucks shit*


*******************************


Shinji stared out into space for the pass six hours and didn't
even twitch. *I've gotta get back to my time*

"That's it!! i'll get all the info on the angels that is going to attack
Tokyo 3 from MAGI and then go back to our time so no one will die and
all this wouldn't have happened!!"

Cheered up by this latest idea, Shinji jumped out of his bed and dashed to
the MAGI to get some info only to find Kensu sitting next to it.

"...."

"Ke-Kensu..."

"Shinji, hiya sup"

"Nothing much, u know just this and that and somemore..."

"Hey, do u want more info on what happened to the people u used to know??"

*Do I wanna know?? Do i really wanna know what happened to Asuka??*
"Yes"

"Ok then, should i continue about that Asuka girl..."

".....Yes"

"Are yo-"

"I said YES"

"Ok ok ok, sheesh just making sure, ok here's the stuff" Kensu pointed at
the screen, "Souyru, Asuka Langley died when commiting suicide after an
angel entered her mind.. umm.. let see... after the incident, the pilot is
unable to sync with her EVA and was useless to NERV and was lain off, few days
later, she hanged herself and....", for the first time, Kensu looked up to
see if Shinji was ok, only to find Shinji standing there crying, "Hey, are you
sure u wanna go through this??"

"I-I-I.... I don't wa-want t-to r-run away an-a-any m-m-more"

*I better leave Shinji alone with this, she must be important to him*
"I think i'll let you use the MAGI to find stuff by yourself, I need to get
some sleep anyways" Kensu started for the door.

"Thanks for being truthful with me Kensu.."

"Your welcome...."


*******************************


*W hy did I cry, Asuka hates me anyways, why would i cry because of her*

Wiping away his tears he continued to search for information about the angels
that hasn't appeared yet in his time and continue to study them until midnight
when Shinji got so tired he barely made it to his room.

*I'll continue tomorrow*
"I'll save u Asuka" Shinji mumbled absent-mindedly as he fall asleep.


*******************************


"Oh god, should I ask him, or should i wait", Kasumi walked around her apartment
nervously as she battles with herself rather or not to ask Shinji out on a
lunch date, "maybe this is too fast, but I really like him, he's sweet, he's not
a pervert, and he's much better than Chron...."

DING DONG

"Hmm.. who would be here at 7 in the morning", Kasumi opened the door to find
'Shinto' standing at her door. "oh, umm.. hey Shinto.. w-why are you here?"
*Oh my god, this is a dream, this is gotta be a dream*

"Well.. i'm here to ask you out on a date.. I mean your good looking and all
that and well...."
beep
"well i'm wondering if you feel the same"
beep
"about me as i do"
beep BEEP BEEP

"HUH??"

"Oh it's just a dream, damn, that was too real"

Walking to the bathroom, she looked at herself in the mirror

"Right now, i seriously don't look like a child genious that aced all the courses
in Tokyo 2 University heh"

Kasumi spent few minutes doing her morning routine when...

DING DONG

"BE RIGHT THERE, JUST A MINUTE"

Kasumi opened the door to find 'Shinto' at her door.
*This IS just a dream right*
"Umm hi"

"Hi, So YOU live here"

"Yeah, ever since I graduated from T2U"

"Wow, this is where I used to live..err... near ya near"

Kasumi can't believe her ears, she is living in the apartment that her crush used
to live in. "REALLY!!"

"Yup, just came to see who lives here last"

"Well when i got here, this apartment was abandoned by the previous owner years
ago, like few hundred with the looks of it when I got here heh. I don't get it
why would YOU move away to Tokyo 2??"

"Huh? oh, personal reasons..."

"I see.... hey you want something to eat or something"
*Maybe he would ask me on a date after this... ooohhh.. this is so perfect*

"No i just ate"

*WHAT, IT'S ONLY 7 IN THE MORNING*

"But i'll be glad to join you if you don't mind me just sitting here"

"Oh, not at all, have a sit"

"Thanks...."
*Where did Misato go when she left the apartment...*
"Umm Kasumi, do you know the person who own the apartment last..."

"Well some person from NERV lived here I think she's a major... umm is it
Major Katsuragi or something, i'm not sure.. why do you ask??"

"MISATO!! what happened to her"

"Huh?? what do you mean what happened, i guess she died or something, you
know her or something??"

*Damn, can't let Kasumi know where i'm REALLY from*
"Umm...umm.. she's my.. umm... Grandmother"
*Reeeaaalll good excuse Ikari, Grandmother...wait til Misato hear's about this,
she'll rip my head off and then let Pen-Pen peck my eye balls out*

Kasumi looked at Shinji Suspiciously but decide to leave it, "Shinto Katsuragi,
hmm... for some reason, that just doesn't sound right"

"Heh, umm my mom isn't good with names so..."

"Hey.. umm Shinto.. you doing anything at lunch?"
*I can't wait... Shinto and Kasumi Katsuragi oohh.. it sound so nice*

"Umm.. actually I need to do something.. sorry"

"I guess it's ok..."
*so close... hey wait*
"...c-can I join you on what your doing cuz I ha-"

"No, it's ok, it's kinda personal sorry"

*Does he already have a girlfriend, or does he not like me.. oohh.. this is bad*
"Umm.. I guess I'll be seeing you around huh?"

Shinji sat there and thought for a minute until he said, "Well..I..err... don't have
..err.. anything ...err.. tonight.. so if you want... umm.. u can, i guess, umm
jo-"

"I'd love to Shinto, thank you thank you thank you"

"Ok... I have to go now... see you tonight i guess"

"Bye"
*OH MY GOD... A DATE WITH SHINTO!!! THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE*


*******************************


"Why did I just invite her to Dinner", Shinji walked towards NERV and still
wondering why he did what he did, "And why did I hesitated like that, we're
just friends right, why am I this nervous?"

*Maybe I'm starting to have feelings for her, but that's crazy... right*

"Heh.. I wonder what Asuka would think about this....Asuka...I'll come back"

*******************************


"Hey, where is Shinto, Kensu??"

"Oh hey Chron, try the MAGI terminal, he's been there searching for stuff
since yesterday"

"Thanks Kensu, the Doc want's Shinto to have a sync test with Unit 01 and
run some tests"

"Say good luck to him for me"

"Yeah.. he'll need it in Unit 01"

*******************************


"Shinto, we're initiating the sync test, just sit tight ok"

*Great, in 2015 I did this and now 100 years later, I still need to do this*
"Yes ma'am"

"What's his sync rate Nina??"

"Umm his sync rate is at 78% and rising Doctor"

"Your doing good Shinto"

"...."

"Hey Shinto... is this your first time with an EVA, you seem like you know what
your doing" Chron's face appeared in the EVA as the message is relayed to him

"I guess i'm a natural"

"Man, your beating my record on your first try, this sucks"

*Not my first try, it's more like my 50th*

"Man are you sure this is your first try"

"I'm not sure"

"At least make it seem your really trying hard... give me some face will ya"

"...."

"I HATE you"

"...."

"Hey you hear me"

"...."

"HEY SHINTO!!"

The doctor checked Shinji's vital signs, "all green"

"Huh? Hey Shinto, answer me will ya"

"Huh?? Sorry.."

"You freaked me out for a second there"

"Sorry.."

"What's his sync rate doc"

"He's at 86%"

"WHAT?!?! That's impossible, it's only his first try"

"Shinto, this will be all for today"

"Thanks doctor"

"Your a real fluke Shinto"

"Maybe I am... Maybe i am"
*all the angels i've beaten are all beaten by luck anyways....*


*******************************


"H ey, Shinto, I heard your sync ratio beat Chron's by 14 points on
your first sync test heh, he must be pissed"

"Yeah, he is actually"
*and for a second, I thought he is gonna kill me*

"so.. did u ever had a girlfriend or anything"
*please tell me he doesn't have one*

"Nope"

*YES*
"Really?? I would think a good looking guy luck you would have lots
of girls clinging on to you" Kasumi slow lowered her head to hid her
face.

"Re-real-really, you think so..."

"Yeah... I guess..."

"Sir, Ma'am, what would you like to have today" the waiter questioned
them but all the two can say is, "I'll have what he/she is having"

"Umm.... and what will that be"

"What they're having" Shinji blindly pointed at a direction

"Sure, it'll just be a moment"

"...."

"...."

The awkward silence stood ground right until the food came, which is
pretty nasty looking at first look but actually quite good.

"Heh, this just comes to tell you, never judge a book by it's cover"

"Heh, yup, this is good, I really would like to know what it is."

"For some reason I don't think that's a good idea"

"Your right I guess"

Shinji smiled at Kasumi and looked at her like she was a goddess but
all he could think of is *why can't Asuka be like her*


*******************************


"Shit, I forgot Shinji's not here, please be too lazy Misato, PLEASE
BE LAZY"

"Hey Asuka, I cooked dinner"

"NNNOOOOOOOOO"

"Hey, i'm not that bad"

"Why me"

RRRIIINNNNGGGG

"Katsuragi residence....yup....hmm... ok... sure... WHAT?!?! be right
there... cya"

"What what that about??"

"They found a way to get Shinji back"

"They did, yes... no more inedible food"

"Hey I heard that"

"So... I won't be eatting YOUR cooking for long"

"I'll get you later Asuka"

"Heh... I'M the great Asuka langley Souyru, like you can even catch me"

"True, but I can cut your pay"

"You don't dare"

"You'll be surprised"

"hmph"


*******************************


"Well Misato it's like this, the energy released from the Angel when it
self destructed and the gases from this underground pipe and the LCL
leaking from Unit 01 seem to have an effect if mixed together. They are
making a rift in the space time continum and pulled Shinji and Unit 01
in to the rift"

"Whoa hold on there English please"

"She means that Shinji has either traveled to a really outlandish place, or
to a different time", Asuka smurked as she finished her translation.

"Huh?? you said that Unit 01 was pulled in too.. why is it still here??"

"The rift is not big enough" Ritsuko said plainly

"Very funny"

"I'm serious", replied Ritsuko, and very annoyied for that matter

"Oh..."

"So how do we get Shinji back" Asuka piped in as Misato looked away sheepishly

"All we need to do is to simulate a simular situation, but the problem is,
we need an explosion that emits the energy the angel emitted"

"So do we need to wait til the next attack then"

"Yes..."

*Wait Shinji, just few more weeks, I'll get you out* Misato noted to herself
as Asuka groaned. "Man, I need to suffer from Misato's cooking until the
next angel attack, this sucks..."

Misato curiously looked at Asuka, *was she.... crying....*
