From moment to moment, Shinji desires will be EVA's desires; She will act as he acts. They will be one living organism.

"Shinji!" Misato shouts to get Shinji's unqualified attention.

"Sir!" Shinji says feeling like `canon fodder'.

"This will be your first step unassisted, your first time to walk." says Misato.

Over the intercom, Shinji's works boom out in response.

"Wa ... WALK!" shouts Shinji in disbelief. "... How do I do that!"

"To walk, you have only to use your consciousness to focus your thoughts; your desire for `walking'." says Misato to a very scared Shinji.

Inside the Plug Shinji hesitates; he's soaked in perspiration.

"Just think about walking." Misato tells Shinji. "Trust me!"

Shinji grabs the hand supports on the sides of the pilots couch. They're not used to steering in the usual mechanical sense. They help to transmit sensations to EVA which are diagnosed and amplified.

"Walk ... ?" Shinji thinks to himself. "Walk ... "

Shinji begins to visualize the sensation of walking in his mind (EVA mind); taking a step. EVA responds, a little hesitantly and then lifts its left leg, and shifts its weight slightly forward to left of center.

"Wa .... " Shinji says. Unlike in a dream, there is a sensation of "feeling" the action of walking even though he's strapped to the "pilot" couch.

EVA's left foot comes to a rest on the pavement of the street, and stops in motion.

"He did it!" Ritsuko says almost not believing.

"He walked!" Misato shouts in excitement.

"St ... Stop." Shinji thinks the emotion but something else is going on inside his head.

EVA takes another step. Shinji begins to feel strange. Emotions seem to be running wild in this mind.

"ST ... STOP ... Na ... NO!!" shouts Shinji but he looses control of his emotions.

But the emotions flooding his mind seem uncontrollable. He feels anger, hatred, he wants ... revenge.

"GOOOO!!!" cries Shinji.

EVA launches into a wild run toward the Angel. The Angel seems even surprised by the display. The control room staff are shocked. Something is terribly wrong, or so they think. They begin to panic.

"Don't do this!!" shouts Misato. "Shinji, please wait your not ready!"

Shinji is engulfed by rage. The Id has taken over, but who's, EVA or Shinji, both?

"AAAAAAAA ...." cries Shinji.

The Angel prepares a defense by a wide angel blast from its neutral particle beam. The blast seems not intended to
