“Ok, your all are done.” Ritsuko announced over the intercom speaker as she looked at all five girls inside their entry-plugs with their eyes closed. Asuka, Rei, Hikari, Jo, and Elly/Zoe opened their eyes slowly as their faces reflected their mood.
“Uhhhh, I jus’ remembered how boring this is.” Jo moaned dully, kicking her feet up as she lay back in her seat.
“Who did the best?” Elly asked with a prided smile as Ritsuko smiled at her question.
“Asuka? Rei?” Hikari said softly as Hikari had a caring nature for her fellow pilots.
“Good, Everyone else?” Rei spoke with a small smile as everyone replied but Asuka. Asuka was in a mood the others all knew so well.
“Fine, jus’ let me fucking out already!” Asuka barked as she crossed her arms over her chest and looked to the hatchway.
“What’s wrong Asuka?” Elly wondered aloud as Ritsuko was ready to answer her before Jo interrupted.
“Well we know who did the worst.” Jo smirked as her entry-plug opened and she climbed out. Elly and Hikari opened next as Asuka huffed loudly.
“Hurry up!” Asuka demanded as she kicked wildly in the air. Rei’s opened next as a hand landed on Ritsuko’s shoulder.
“Let me talk to her, everyone please leave.” A well-known voice inquired as the blonde doctor nodded.
“Everyone out, put a hold on unit two’s opening.” Ritsuko ordered as she watched everyone leave. With everyone gone, the purple haired woman lit a cigarette and sighed.
“Are you ok Asuka?” Major Misato asked softly as the red head snapped back.
“I’m fine! Now let me out!” The red head glared at the screen as Misato just smiled.
“Outside the café by the cracker factory, you were practicing a magic trick.” Jo began singing as she hopped off her Evangelion, smiling. She didn’t do the best but she had beat Asuka, and that was all the reward itself. The American girl had butted head with German non-stop since she had showed up, one always trying to one-up the other. Elly was smiling too as Jo watched Hikari go to Rei’s plug. Elly knew she had did the best, she just knew it, felt it. Everyone’s reaction was calculated and thought on.
“Hands fuckin’ down!”
Zoe smirked as she faced Jo who smiled back. Rei looked at Hikari as they both looked to Asuka’s unopened entry-plug.
“And my thoughts got rude as you talked and chewed on the last of your pic’n’mix.” Jo shifted her feet to an unheard beat as she picked up her M-player from her bag.
“How’d ya’ do?” Elly’s proper cockney slipped on Zoe’s scouse as Jo stared at her M-player, scrolling wildly.
“Good, I’m more hands on if you know what I mean?” Jo grinned hotly as Elly frowned knowing what she meant.
“Yor’ very rude.” Elly bellyached as Jo sighed and went back to her M-player.
“You think she’s ok?” Hikari looked to Rei, who was staring at the said girl’s plug.
“Yeah it’s them! Jo and Elly! Slampas! Slampas! Slampas!” Asuka screamed viciously as her voice reverberated throughout her entry-plug.
“Wow, its jus’ a test for fuck sakes.” Jo looked up surprisingly at the red entry-pug as Hikari scowl at her.
“You’re not helping any Jo.” Hikari turned to the American girl, her face saying it all.
“Hikari.” Rei said softly as Hikari glared at the black haired girl, then to the blue-haired girl.
“Why is she doing so badly then? This is the third test in a row.” Elly asked curiously as Rei looked at her unsurely.
“Asuka…” Misato looked into the crying girl’s eyes as the German girl had lost it… again.
“You went through this before, why don’t you like Jo and Elly?” Misato threw her purple hair back as smoke filled her lungs.
“They’re just stupid I just hate them, I don’t need a reason!” Asuka sobbed aloud as she slammed her fist on her handle-grips.
“Fine, you can stay in there until you feel like playing nice.” Misato huffed as she hit the comm.-link button.
“Continue hold on opening unit-2’s entry-plug.” The major ordered and turned away from the screaming girl.
“Let me out! Let me OUT!!!” Asuka screamed again and again as she got up and started hammering on her hatch door. Rei and Hikari quickly jumped up as they both grabbed the handle.
“You’re past times consisting of the strange, are twisted and deranged I hate that little game you have called…Crying-lightning.” Jo sung as she and Elly hurried over to the others trying to open Asuka’s hatch.
“Ahhhh!!! LET ME OUT!!!” Hikari and Rei got the handles out and were ready to turn it when a cold voice called out.
“Rei, Hikari stop, she’s ok, but she will remain in there until she calms down, go clean up.” The four girls looked up to the high balcony where Yui Ikari stood frowning. Asuka continued to sob as her banging all but stopped.
“Misato?” The red head looked to the empty control.
“I don’t want to be alone…”
“That’s why you aggravate the icky man on raining afternoon…” Jo walked side by side with Elly, sharing headphones as Rei and Hikari followed behind them both worried about Asuka. Jo turned up her head phones as Zoe sang along. The two had started listening to A-monkeys new song and loved it, thing was Jo was crazy about all kinds of music, she had a million songs on her M-player and listened to it all the time.
“Please don’t encourage her Jo, she’s bad enough.” Elly griped through the singing pair as she felt Zoe breathing down her neck.
“Light’in up love, she’s not bad he’rrr.” Zoe grinned as Elly sighed and gave in.
“Uninviting…!” Zoe puffed her chest out like she never lost a war.
“But it’s not as easy as everyone assumes… you are… CRYING LIGHTNING!!!” Jo screamed back as the two continued to sing as Hikari and Rei shook their heads, but thinking about the same thing.
“Poor Asuka…”
