Lamia seems to have worked through the entire night, and greets the pilot, "Un-unfortunately, you will have to l-lodge off-base, pilot Soryu."

Well, duh, I've been off base for like over a month now. Speaking of which, though, the woman who pays my rent was in there. Is everyone okay? What the hell happened?

"We were att-attacked by an unidentified unit, it leveled the base. Rescue efforts are still ong-ongoing," she paused for a moment, calculating. "Casualty estimates at a minimum of 64%. Some personal are cu-currently MIA."

N-no way... there's just...

There's just no way this could be happening! Everyone... why?!

*within yelling distance, Kouji is helping the emergency crew sift through the rubble, yesofcourse he's wearing a dorky safety helmet*

Hey, come on! Are you just going to stand there or what?

I... I...

-Having arrived with Asuka, Shinji is too shocked to even move. He can only stare in horror at the destruction all around him, tears stinging the corners of his eyes.-

I just can't... believe this...

[diesinmagma]

Shinji... Nobody can, but...

...Come on, take a look at you, you're doing fine. I was here last night and I'm alright, and Asuka's still Asuka. Just look around, what do you see?

-Shinji hangs his head, feeling almost guilty that he wasn't caught in the attack, yet so many others were.-

I see death.

-His eyes scout around, and he catches sight of the rescue teams. He brightens ever so slightly.-

But also, rebuilding... I've got to help, too!
