Neo genezis evangelion 1-6

It is from such a person that I will be able to get hold of normal and familiar music, although, of course, there are great difficulties here. Firstly, most likely Aoba does not have Russian groups, and secondly, it is not a fact that many groups continued to exist after the Second Strike... Because, as I realized, Shinji"s only tape had only old and rather soft music, like the same "Scorpions". I have nothing against them, I even quite adore them, but sometimes you need high-quality brain blows, don"t you? You can"t go into battle, for example, to a calm and quiet melody — you need something cooler here... Okay, first let"s ask, "Is this an attempt a torture, Comrade Beria?"..

"Aoba, can I distract you?.."

"Of course, Shinji. What did you want?"

"I can hear "System of a Down" playing, can you record it for me? And something of the same kind, otherwise I forgot my music when I moved..."

"No problem. Any special requests?"

"Well... Is there anything metallic and German or Russian to be found? Like "Rammstein"?"

So, I hope they even exist here? Otherwise, it will be a loss of losses...

"You ask... I have a lot of things here, and where can I go without the "classics"?.." Aoba smiled. "How do you want to put it on a flash card?"

Yeah, so there are flash drives here after all, so not everything is completely lost yet... But here"s the catch — Misato didn"t even have the most cluttered computer in her apartment, and there was simply nowhere to dump music. The twenty-first century, damn it.... We even had computers in every room in our dorm lately, although the radio was considered lucky in the first year... No, you need to get yourself at least some kind of device.

"Let"s use a flash drive, I think I"ll get a computer for myself soon... Thank you in advance, Aoba!"

"Come on, what"s the problem, Shinji" He smiled at Shigeru.

I walked away from his desk and pulled up to Katsuragi, who was sitting in a large armchair, calmly polishing her nails with a nail file.

"Misato, can I go to the shooting range?"

"Haven"t you got your bearings yet?" The captain was even indignant. "You"ve been shooting at targets all day!"

"So it"s in Eve and on the simulator! But I want to live, and in the end, I need to shoot a gun," I retorted.

"It turns out that he needs to shoot..." Katsuragi grumbled. "Don"t you want anything else?"

"I"ll come to the shooting range, and we"ll see" I answered vaguely. I wonder if I have a permit to shoot heavier weapons? I want to shoot a machine gun! Oh, well, it"s a paradise for gun maniacs, not a closed institute...

"Okay, yeah... The Corporal!"

"Yes, ma"am!"

"Take the Third Child to the shooting range."

"Yes, ma"am!"

One of the soldiers guarding the NERVE command cabin adjusted the MP-5 hanging on his right side and waved his hand at me:

"Please, sir, follow me."

Hmm, judging by the slight accent and manner of expression, the guard seems to be from somewhere in America... I wonder if there are any Russians here? Although even if there is, what"s the use? I can"t open up to them — I have nothing to explain my knowledge of the Russian language and habits, and I can"t even count on great erudition.

Chapter 8. Shooting gallery and reflections on the characters of Evangelion.

"What can I do for you?.." An elderly, gray-haired Japanese man sitting on the other side of the armored glass looked at me skeptically. Is that a sergeant? So far, I don't know much about "nerve" patches...

"Second Lieutenant Ikari."

You can understand a soldier — it's not every day that fourteen-year-old brats come (hmm, or am I only thirteen years old? Damn, I don't remember... when is my birthday?), in uniform and with officer's stripes.

"I'd like to shoot my personal weapon," I replied calmly, handing him my personal pass.

The sergeant grunted, but he held the pass under the laser beam. Squeak, my visit has been recorded and registered, you can go.

"The shooting range is empty now, shoot as much as you want," The gunsmith added a bit sarcastically, handing my ID back. "Just don't forget about the headphones."

"I won't forget," I replied quite seriously. A couple of incidents from that life were enough for me to understand that firearms make VERY loud noises when firing. "Can I ask you a question? Do I have a permit to fire other types of weapons?"

"You're Officer NERVE," the sergeant explained. "So you can fire a bazooka if you want to. But I still wouldn't recommend doing it indoors, you know..."

"No, no, I don't like big guns." I laughed, remembering the absolutely monstrous grenade launchers designed for my Eva. "But I would like to practice shooting with a machine gun or a rifle..."

"No problem, what are you interested in?"

"What do you have? Shall we say machine guns?" Honestly, it's like we're trading on the market...

"There is a Type 62, a Minimi and a Heckler-Koch-21."

"Wow, though!.."

"Oh, can I have a German?"

"Boy, won't it smear you on the wall?" throwing off all chain of command, the sergeant frowned. After all, the HK-21 is going to be a serious car...

So, I really missed this moment — with my current weight and overall characteristics, God forbid I could handle the machine...

"Okay, then give me the Belgian handbrake... What about the rifles?"

"Pooh, do you want honey or condensed milk?"..

"Type-89, M-4, Aug-77 and Kalashnikov-74."

"Both! And you can do it without bread!!!"

Come on, everyone!..

...Anyway, three hours later, Misato was almost forcing herself on me from the shooting gallery, studiously ignoring my pleas that "I'm just a little bit more." As a result, I looked stunned, my uniform smelled of gunpowder smoke, my right index finger was frozen and stiff, I had mild deafness in both ears, a sore shoulder, and an unusually good mood.

Finally, the dream of the Chukchi people to get to the Crimea has come true!..

I got a lot of impressions from visiting the shooting range...

The machine gun, even a small-caliber one, like the Belgian Minimi, still turned out to be excessively powerful and heavy for me — the recoil really almost smeared me on the wall, and after all, it still fired relatively low-power 5.56 mm caliber cartridges. What would have happened to me if I had nevertheless claimed a three-line "heckler-koch" at my disposal, it's scary to even think... But a long machine-gun burst — I'll tell you something! Yes, yes, yes — that's the kind of gun maniac I am! I must have read the wrong books when I was a kid...

The machines pleased me more, even the a priori despised NATO ones.

The American emka really turned out to be a real mess — some kind of moronic shutter arrangement, and anyway... I liked the Austrian rifle more — it was comfortable, grippy and accurate, and it would be better than the M-16. Our Japanese version also turned out to be quite good, and, of course, I was pleased with the "kalash" left for a snack. A brand-new AK-74M with a folding stock is just a fairy tale! Maybe I'm being a little biased, but Russian weapons, in my opinion, are the best! It's just a pity that it's almost not widely available — for example, I wouldn't mind having a Gyurza or GSH-18 instead of a Glock, but I'm already rolling my lip too much...

By the way, I didn't forget about the pistol either, and I practiced shooting with it. Well, what can I say? The machine is excellent — lightweight, convenient, multi-charging and, as far as I know, reliable — just what the doctor ordered.

And in general, as I understood it, the entire arsenal of the NERVE consisted of samples used in subordinate troops from the USA, China, Japan and Russia, as well as weapons from the German branch — the second largest after the Japanese. The same, I think, applies to attached tank and aviation units. I wonder how far the authority of NERV extends over the UN troops? This information may be useful in the future...

Just in case.

* * *

"Well, that's it, Misato, I'm going to do my homework and go to bed", I got up from the table and went to my room.

We dealt with dinner quickly enough — today we made do with the warmed-up remains of yesterday's porridge soup and scrambled eggs and bacon, also bought yesterday..

"Yeah, come on... And I'm going to watch some TV," Misato also got up, grabbed a couple of cans of beer and headed to the main hall.

Meanwhile, I reached the door, which proudly displayed a piece of paper crookedly taped to it with the inscription "Shinji's room" in Katsuragi's handwriting. Tek-S...

Well, I'm not going to do my homework yet — first let's see which subjects can be done and which ones can be ignored... Student habits are taking their toll. By the way, I'm still basically a student! Do we have a NERVE? That's right, the INSTITUTE.

I sat down at a small desk and rested my head on my hand.

What an eventful day it was, however. I wonder if it's going to be the same or worse? Okay, I need to figure something out...

I tore out a double sheet from my notebook, took out a pen and wrote "Preventing the Third Strike" with a flourish at the top, in the middle of the sheet, and added "Viktor Severov's plan" at the bottom.

He stopped, chewed his pen thoughtfully, stared at the ceiling, and then began to write out the main characters on a piece of paper. So, let's start with my closest associates.

Captain Misato Katsuragi, soon to be Major. My supervisor, guardian, and immediate commander. She is cheerful, smart, resourceful, and knows how to find a common language with any people. At work, it is a model of professionalism, at home it is a local manifestation of gouging.

She likes beer, but she's not a complete alcoholic. In battle, he prefers to act outside the box, but extremely adventurous and undisciplined. The only survivor of the Antarctic expedition NERVE, who studied Adam found in the ice.

What is her main problem? Uncertainty on the personal front, perhaps... She loves a certain Ryoji Kaji, but she can't be with him. Or doesn't he want to? I still haven't fully understood this point, and unfortunately, I'm not an adviser here — I have very little experience with the opposite sex. Okay, we'll try to come up with something, I don't know how, but we'll try...

The main thing is that it doesn't end the way it did in The End of Evangelion, that is, that Misato didn't die during the storming of NERVE headquarters...

Further.

Commander Gendo Ikari.

An extremely odious and ambiguous personality. For the sake of reuniting with his dead wife, he actually arranged the end of the world, during which everything built by human hands was destroyed on earth, and the people themselves, in the number of a couple or three billion, spread out into one big ocean of love. What else can be said against Gendo? An absolutely heartless bastard who doesn't care about his own son, and all the interest he showed in Shinji was "pilot Evangelion or get the fuck out of here." Awesome, right? And it was never even a question of having a human conversation with his son...

Why? To be honest, I just think Gendo himself was afraid of it and, like Shinji, was constantly running away from his problem. What's wrong with the version? Father... Yes, I guess I can call him father — it's not difficult for me, I grew up without a father myself, and I wasn't even particularly interested in the presence of this biological object somewhere on the planet... So, Father, in principle, is not such a bad person. Tough, yes, unscrupulous, yes, stopping at nothing, yes too. But somehow I even like such people, perhaps because I have always lacked these qualities... Okay, then. Enough of the characteristics, let's move on to specific events.

What'll we do? Definitely cooperate — an enemy whose plans are already known is not as scary as some unknown one. How to cooperate? Hiding behind the mask of a maniac soldier, move up the career ladder, gaining access to new levels of influence on other people. Well, along the way, do not forget to follow the necessary orders and stay ahead of the stupid ones. And as a crowning achievement, stop the Third Strike or force Gendo to abandon it...

So, who else do we have there from the big shots? Okay, Dr. Akagi...

So, Dr. Akagi Ritsuko.

The head of the scientific department, literally and figuratively, is the brightest head of the NERVE. Gendo's lover, but I don't even know how that fact can help me. He is engaged in the development of everything new and secret, like the Evangelions themselves and pseudo pilot systems. He knows most of the secrets of the Office, and he's a very useful person. In the original story, she died at the hands of Gendo when she tried to stop his insidious black Lord plans. Damn, this must also be prevented somehow, otherwise the descendants will not forgive us for losing such a brilliant scientist...

Let's move on.

Deputy Commander Kozo Fuyutski.

Perhaps the most sensible of the whole honest company. He seemed to have some sympathy for Yu Ikari, my mother, and initially distrusted Gendo, but later became his most loyal assistant. Somehow, we need to work with him too — as the head of the NERVE, he looks much better than bati. But how to do it?

A certain Ryoji Kaji.

A person with an uncertain status. I think it's Inspector ZIELE... Or is it a NERVE? Or the UN in general? Damn, I don't remember... Well, I wasn't particularly impressed with this character — I had other favorite characters. Well, well, well... What else do I remember about him? Agent ZIELE in NERVE and at the same time Agent NERVE in ZIELE, working under the guise of Agent ZIELE in NERVE... ahh!!! Someone save me, my brain is bursting!

ahh!!! Someone save me, my brain is bursting! I've always hated all these spy games and the intricacies of intrigue! Whether it's an open battle... Okay, wait, you fucking soldier. What are we going to do with Kaji, he's kind of on our side? Build bridges? We need someone who's privy to all these conspiracies...

Oh, my God! Contacts, bridges — what have I planned here? The bridge builder is an unfinished signalman... Okay, okay, let's move on to dessert dishes — for my fellow sufferers, that is, pilots or Children.

The Fourth Child Of Toji Suzuhara.

Initially my enemy, then my friend. Here, the first stage has been successfully overcome, but the second has not yet arrived. But you need to. I hate to impose, but a team of Children should be as balanced and cohesive as possible. What else is known about Toji? The pilot (for a very short time) of Eva-03, which was captured by some kind of Object A, which is why the third Evangelion had to be destroyed. By the hands of Shinji, by the way, although at the commands of a pseudo pilot. As a result, Suzuhara was seriously injured — he lost a leg, or an arm, or both... In short, I don't remember this moment very well. Okay, then. What are we going to do with it? Being friends is one thing. Try to save in battle or prevent Angel infection — two. And if there shouldn't be any special difficulties with the first point, then there are problems with the second one. I don't know when or under what specific conditions Eva 03 was captured by an Object A, so I guess I'll just have to keep a close eye on the news regarding the new Eves.
