Anthony Dantuono Title: Ghosts of The Past Author: Anthony Dantuono E-mail: guyver4@prodigy.net DISCLAIMER I am not the owner of Evangelion or Jedi influences. You know that. I’ve said it enough times. I used some of Toho’s name and characters they don’t belong to me either But there’s more Corey Raize is the creation of Kaoru Nagisa First used in EvaLess Now let’s talk about this tale A figure from Asuka’s past comes to Tokyo-3 We know one’s past can be painful but what happens when a secret of the past, far beyond you own memory, surfaces. A deep, terrible secret held for a thousand years comes to light. Now before I give to much away I present Ghosts of the Past. Chapter one The Storm Begins Shinji opened his eyes. He sat up stretching and rubbing the sleep from his eyes. He opened the widow to view the beautiful morning in Tokyo-3 Looking out at the city sky-line Shinji could not help but reflect on how much he’s been involved in since coming to the city. He was brought in to battle the Angels as the pilot of Eva-01. Meeting, Rei, Asuka, Anthony, Touji, Kensuke, Hikari, Myna, Kaoru. Becoming Rei boyfriend, training with the lightsaber, Fighting his clone in New York-2 Taking on the demon Solanos and most recently fighting a crazy other dimensial Askua thought Shinji Breakfast was the usual, Misato was barred from cooking. Shinji and Anthony made the lunches as Asuka and Rei cooked breakfast. Conversation was the usual as well “Well guys, maybe things can get back to normal around here” said Misato “Some how I doubt it.” said Anthony, ‘I mean things weren’t normal to begin with.” ‘Are you complaining?’ asked Rei “Of course not. Normal’s too boring” said Anthony with a laugh. ‘You guys have done great.” said Misato “You should all be given medals for bravery.” “No need Misato” said Asuka “If it weren’t for the battles we would have never been brought together.” “Yeah, united through misery.” laughed Anthony “After misery then comes the fun” said Shinji “Yeah, I heard your fun last night” said Misato sarcastically “Huh?’ asked Rei “Uh, Misato? That was you.” said Asuka “We slept in our own beds last night” “That was Misato? I thought something was dying in the alley last night” said Anthony He barely dodge the beer can Misato threw at him “Although I think Misato’s right” said Anthony “We’ve fought clones, demons and megalomaniacs. Not quite what we were brought here to do” ‘So what do you guys do next?” asked Misato “Take a nice long rest,” said Asuka “Here, here” seconded Rei. “Right on” agreed Shinji “Hell yeah!” shouted Anthony “I suppose you’re entitled to it. You guys have performed way above an beyond the call of duty” said Misato. She was very proud of them. “Can we help it if heroism is in our blood?’ said Asuka “Yeah, we’re just born heroes” said Shinji Glancing at the clock Misato said “Well, born heroes you’d better get you heroic asses in gear or you’ll be late for school” A groan came from the children “Interdimensional heroes and we’re still at the mercy of the school board” muttered Shinji Actually they made it school with time to spare. It was a typical day The aging professor droned on forever about Second Impact. Relief came only at lunch. The girls were on the one side and the boys on the other “Well, I hope things will settled down now.” said Kensuke “Although meeting those other us, was kinda fun” said Shinji “Yeah, that Yoko was cute” said Anthony thoughtfully “Asuka hears you say that, not even Eva-04 will save you” warned Shinji “Don’t I know it ” said Anthony with a laugh On the girls side ‘I’m glad all that dimension hopping is over” said Hikari “Yeah, me too. Now I can get down to some serious make up time with Kensuke” said Myna “You mean make out time” said Asuka “Oh shut up” said Myna ‘You know Hikari, I don’t see what your problem is. The only thing the same in any of the worlds was you and Toji” said Rei. “Ahh, It was meant to be” sighed Hikari dreamily “I think, I need some insulin” muttered Rei “Watch it” snapped Hikari “Will you two shut up” said Asuka “I have a wonderful idea” “And that is?” asked Myna “Well, since Rei is now moved in with Misato, so her old apartment empty. Right?” said Asuka ‘So?” asked Hikari “What better place for privacy?” asked Asuka ‘Privacy?” Asked Myna, “For what?” ‘Where else can we plan, what to do to those hentais” said Asuka as she pointed to the boys “Wicked grins spread across al the girls faces “Let’s do it.” said Myna back across the room the boys watched the girls talking “I don’t need Jedi senses to know they’re up to something” said Anthony “We know them to well” said Shinji “Yeah, trouble personified” said Touji “But they’re a hell of a lot of fun” said Kensuke “On that ,we all agree!” said Anthony School let out The boys walked to Misato’s but the girls disappeared. ‘Where did the girls go?” asked Shinji “I have a bad feeling about this” said Anthony “I think we all do” said Kensuke Where were the girls? Well that simple to answer, they were at Rei’s old apartment “Are sure this will work?” asked Myna “Sure, once this place is clean up, it will make a perfect hideout” said Asuka “The boys would never think of looking here” ‘So exactly what do we do here?’ asked Rei “Plot and plan,” said Asuka “What exactly” asked Myna “Anything” said Asuka evilly | Misato’s Place | “Why do I feel the girls have something planned?” asked Touji “Because we know them?” suggested Shinji “Probably, those girls have a sneaky nature” said Anthony “Yeah, but their plans usually are beneficial to us” said Kensuke smiling ‘True that, true that,” said Anthony “Hey, Anthony I have to know, what did you clone tell you back in New York-2” asked Touji Anthony’s face seemed to sink a little. “Well, I did promise” he sighed “You see I learned who killed my parents” “Who?” asked Shinji “Dr. Serwan” revealed Anthony ‘The guy who raised you, and built the lightsabers?” asked Shinji ‘Yeah, him” The other boys gasped in horror “He wanted me to be an Eva pilot, my parents refused. So he killed them. To increase my effectiveness as an Eva pilot he gave me a lightsaber to help me develop weapon skills.. After I battled Defender I got a memo from him, his last words. He said he was sorry for what he had done. I always though he meant placing me in the Eva he really meant killing my parents.” said Anthony sadly “Anthony, I’m sorry” said Shinji “ For what? If my parents hadn’t died I might have never been sent here, never met you, never met Asuka and almost certainly have died in Defender’s attack, or the S2 explosion By killing my parents, he put me through fourteen years of hell, but this last year has almost made up for it. My parents are in a better place, they died quickly, no prolonged pain. “ said Anthony He paused a moment to find the words “I was visited by the souls of my parents after being told the truth. They begged me to forgive Dr. Serwan, because he was just a man trying to what’s best for the world. Yes I was put through hell by Serwan but if it hadn’t been for him the world might have been lost. If my parents can find it in their hearts to forgive him then so can I” said Anthony “Wow that’s deep.” said Kensuke Anthony looked at them ‘Now with that said, can we get off this morbid topic?’ he asked. “Sure, Now what do we talked about?” asked Shinji “How about those other realities” suggested Anthony “You mean the one with Shinji and Asuka together or the gay Kaoru” asked Touji “Don’t remind me of him” grumbled Kaoru “He tried to hit on me” The boys laughed | Somewhere in Germany | The young man looked up at the powerful battle machine He smiled as his eyes traced over the golden scales and the silver armor “Soon old friend, soon we will prove ourselves to the world” he said An officer appeared behind him “Pilot, the infomartion you requested has arrived” “And?” inquired the pilot “It seems the subject is involved with the American pilot.” “Hmm, sexually?” he asked “Yes, according to the reports” report the officer “The little bitch” muttered the young man angrily “She has forgotten our parents agreement I guess, I’ll have to crush the American and take her back forcefully” “Pilot according to our reports, the American is very strong. A skilled Eva pilot and skilled swordsman, it has even been reported that he carries a laser sword at all time” “A swordsman? Interesting. As for his Eva, it is nothing compared to my battle machine. The Evas are a fools mistake. The Unit-02 is a blemish on Germany’s face. This weapon will prove far stronger.” said the young pilot, gestureing to the huge weapon “This is the ultimate cyborg, this is Mecha-Ghidora” though the young man End Chapter one Well this is interesting, One of the most powerful cyborgs in Sci-fi is going to meet one of the most powerful cyborgs in Anime Mecha-Ghidora meets the Evas Anthony Draven meets Corey Raize Sparks and fists will fly.
