"Thank's OK." says Shinji. "It's my fault."

"All of the heavy artillery and tank units of the UN GDF [Ground Defense Force] failed in their defense at Gan Bay... you saw what happened during the missile attack." says Misato. "It was worse for the GDF. See any damage? The missiles had no affect."

" Excuse me." says Shinji. "But what are you talking about? That ... ?"

Misato then realizes that she's not talking to a seasoned employee of NERV and decides to shift subjects.

"We're going to rescue this miserable situation!" says Misato.

"Really!" says Shinji.

"That's right." says Misato. "The DISCIPLE!"

" Disciple?" questions Shinji.

"OH NO!" shouts Misato.

A few meters ahead and to the right a cruise missile explodes as it impacts a building. Debris is scattered all over the road ahead. Misato steers the car accurately through the debris and shockwave.

However, a secondary explosion from the side causes a loss of vacuum beneath the sports' car's body. The car with Misato and Shinji inside flips in the air and lands on the roof skidding on the road surface to a stop against a debris pile.

"Damn ... mmmmhhh!" says Misato. "You'd think these guys could tell the enemy from friendly. Are you all right Shinji?"

"I'm fine." says Shinji.

They crawl out of the car to inspect the damage and to git a grip on the situation.

"What is it?"

"AAAA...!!" shouts Misato. "OH NO. I don't believe it! What a waste and I still have 33 loan payments to make ..."

Misato is a little upset at seeing her car lying on the road upside down?

"Now that's just too much." says Misato. "These glasses were the most important part of my uniform. How awful. I'm filthy, and my shades!"

"I knew it." says Shinji with much sarcasm. "She is weird."

"AAAAhhhh...." shouts Shinji.

"Shinji, get down!!" screams Misato.

A thunderous noise distracts them and them turn to look behind them.

"Nooo... another creature." says Shinji. "Did it multiply?"

"No Shinji." says Misato. "This one's our friend."

"A robot?" says Shinji in disbelief. "... can it be?"

"Oh no." Misato says looking at her watch. "We haven't any time to loose! This is not a place to discuss particulars so get in the car quickly. Time is up."

"Time?" asks Shinji.

"We have to get as far away from here as we can." shouts Misato. "Space is the only thing that can save us now!" climbing back into the car, they speed off down the street.
