Author's Note

Now just letting you know this is just a big taste for what's about to come in the future. I wanted to wait a little more but since they announce the next Evangelion movie for 2020 I just thought it would be better if I made before the movie comes out. However, This will be on hiatus until I'm at least halfway done with "My Little Ori" & "Spike's Undertale"

Chapter 1. You can (Not) Escape (Unedited)

Misato: "You do Nothing."

Asuka: "None of your Damn Bussiness"

Sakura: "Never get in an Eva!"

Gendo: "Pilot the Eva"

Rei Q: "I don't know"

Those were the words that repeated themselves over and over again in Shinji's head. So much has happened to him. He didn't care if he lived or died anymore. He just wanted the pain to stop.

Shinji Ikari was back to the only place that was familiar to him. The only place where he could think, on a train that leads to nowhere. It was the only place left that was familiar to him, unlike that barren wasteland that was now his new reality. The place he created, the place his father made him create. There was barely any life out there except for the two organizations that are at war with one another. Everyone that was close to him now hated him. They hated the sight of him. They no longer loved him and everyone will remember the one boy that ruined their lives.

Shinji Ikari was on the train all by himself as he tried to process at what he had done. This whole time his father used him to cause the third impact, and now he was tricked again by causing the fourth impact. Misato he once knew he was now gone, Misato put an exploding collar on his neck and the only thing Asuka wants to do is beat him up for what he did. The Rei he knew and loved was nothing but a clone of his mother. Everything he has done to save her was all for nothing. The one person who helped him through those dark times and was considered to be his best friend is now dead.

"What are you going to do? Now that you know the truth about your father?" asked Rei who was sitting in front of him staring at him while he was looking at the floor like a broken man who has been through so much.

"Nothing." He answered Simply.

"Nothing?"

"...Yeah. I'll just let myself be captured by Misato and I'll do what they say for now on." Shinji simply replied not caring what will happen next.

"...but they will kill you."

"That's fine. I'm okay with dying. Nothing matters anymore. No one loves me so...who cares." He said as continued to not look up at Rei who wasn't really Rei. Just his imagination playing tricks.

"But you say that like its good thing." said a younger version of Shinji when he was 4 years old before his father abandoned him. Who suddenly showed up out of nowhere staring at Shinji with lifeless eyes.

"But is that what you really want?" asked Rei. "You didn't cause the Third Impact."

"What are you saying?! Of course I've caused it!" shouted Shinji as his voice sound more frantic than calm. "Everyone hates me because of it. It's all my fault. All I wanted was to save Rei, I never meant to cause the Third Impact, I didn't even know I was capable of such a thing. The only reason why I stayed at Nerv was because of Asuka, Rei, Toji, Kensuke....and Misato. They gave me a reason to stay."

Than Shinji clutches his head in agony as he couldn't figure out what to do anymore. The pain, the sorrow it was all too much for him. "Its all my fault!, Its all my Fault!, Its all my fault! IT'S ALL MY FAULT!!!!!" He screamed as he started crying.

"But that's what they want you to think." Shinji suddenly turned to his left as saw Kaworu standing there smiling at him. "You may have caused the third Impact, you may have caused the fourth impact, but how are any of the people who used to work for Nerv any deferent from you."

Tears formed in Shinji's eyes as he saw his best friend who was the only one who was there for him through these tuff times standing right in front of him alive. (At least in Shinji's head) "Kaworu."

"Misato and the people of Nerv were only doing what they were told. Believing that what they were doing was for the sake of mankind. Your no deferent from them. You piloted the Eva cause you were following orders. That's all you've ever done. What makes them any deferent from you." said Kaworu with a friendly smile.

"It was just as much as their Fault than it was yours," said Rei still staring at Shinji.

"And now Misato and the others are using you as a scapegoat." said the younger Shinji.

"Don't you remember?" asked Kaworu.

"Do it for yourself." Shinji suddenly turned his head to the right in shock as he recognized that voice. Walking towards him at the other end of the train came Misato. The old Misato he used to know and loved, not the cold-hearted one that commands Wille. "Do it cause this is what you want." She said as she bent down looking down at him with a grin.

Shinji looked at her with both fear and joy. He didn't know what he felt more. "M-Misato."

"Your father used you. Just like how I used you," she said with a smirk. "To get back at the Angels. For revenge for killing my father."

"N-No that's not true." Shinji face began to twitch as he looked like he was about to break again. "M-Misato y-you cared for me. You loved me. Y-You took me in. You gave me a home."

"Did she really love you? Or was she playing with your feelings," said Rei.

"Y-You betrayed me? Y-You betrayed my feelings?!!"

"The truth hurts doesn't it." Says Rei. "Cause the truth causes everyone pain. Cause the truth can be very, very traumatic."

"P-please d-don't hurt, d-don't l-leave me" Shinji was shaking. The images of everyone face flashed before his eyes. "I-I peg you. Just please care about me! Misato, Ritsuko, Asuka P-please tell me it's not true. Please tell me I'm dreaming. Please tell me that you do care about me!! PLEASE ANSWER ME!!!! "

Everything became silent for a while as Shinji sat there in fear and sadness as he soaked in sweat. "I-I thought, I thought everyone cared about me. I-I thought everyone needed me. But...was it all a lie?!" asked Shinji. "Was I lying to myself the whole time?! I-I thought we were friends, I thought we were family?!"

"That's because you thought everyone else thought the same thing you did. You just believed, what you wanted to believe." Rei Answered.

"LIARS, YOUR ALL LIARS!! screamed Shinji. "GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!!!"

Meanwhile in the middle of a once proud city that was torn apart by an insane group of evil men. Building crumbled while strange helices of an unknown origin spiraled through the sky. The gigantic Eva like creatures, the failures of infinity lay motionless and insert around the impact for miles around.

Shinji Ikari a broken 14-year-old sat on the ground motionless and unresponsive while waiting for Asuka as she was calling Liliem to come to pick them up. Rei stood there while also waiting for Asuka Shikinami. However, because of the interference, Asuka was having trouble getting into contact with WILLE. "This Eva Pilot Asuka Shikinami, come in WILLE. WILLE do you read?"

Shinji felt horrible, worthless, there was nothing he can do. He's just a worthless crybaby that ended the entire world. There is no way anyone would care about him. Who would? Nobody cares if anything happens to him. There is no one in this world that would love him cause in their eyes he is a murderer.

"Shinji"

Shinji slowly looked up as he saw Kaworu looking at him with a smile. There was no way that was Kaworu. Whoever this was isn't real. Shinji is so broken that he has completely lost it. "You can't be Kaworu. Kaworu dead. I saw him die." mumbled Shinji looking at him with a motionless face.

"What are you doing Shinji? Are you really going to let them take you back?" the silver-haired boy asked as his smile turned to a frown.

"Well, what else should I do. I already tried to save the world and look at what happened." He mumbled angerly.

"But Shinji, they will kill you." said the old Rei who was standing next to Rei Q. "The Misato you once knew is gone. Now she is a cold-hearted reflection of your father."

"And even if they don't kill you they will just use you just like Nerv did." Kaworu Added. "Is that what you want. To become a slave of humanity just like before?"

Shinji remembered all there faces. Their faces of pure hatred. He remembered the bridge crew of WiLLE looking at him with utter loathing. He could imagen if Misato wasn't there they beat him half to death if they wanted. "What do you want me to do? I shouldn't run away from the problems."

"Or perhaps that's what you should have been doing all along." Said Rei.

"...what?"

"Think about it Shinji. What if you did run away instead of facing your problems head-on. What if you did the opposite of what people kept telling not to do."

"The Third Impact wouldn't have ever happened. Or at least wouldn't have been your fault," said Rei. "Cause you were never there."

"You shouldn't want anything to do with these organizations Shin-man." Shinji than looked wide-eyed at one of his old friend who suddenly appeared. "I mean seriously, you never wanted the pilot Evangelion in the first place. Why should this be your problem? Just walk away Shin-Man."

"Shut up! That's not what the real Toji would say. I've put his sister in the hospital and he hated me for it!"

"Will you shut up stupid Shinji!!" shouted the annoyed Asuka. "Quit talking to yourself. I'm trying to get into contact here!"

Shinji stood silent for a moment as Asuka went back to trying to get a signal from WILLE. Suddenly Rei Q walked up to Shinji and slowly got on her knees and started to stare at him. Her face still showed no expression what so ever. It was like she had no soal which was no deferent from the original Rei Ayanami.

They both just sat there staring at each other eyes. Shinji couldn't figure out what she was thinking as she didn't smile or frown or anything for that matter.

"...Leave me alone Rei. Asuka was right. You really are just a doll." mumbled Shinji. All Rei Q did was stare at Shinji. It got to the point where Shinji wondered when she was gonna stop but suddenly reached out her hand and held up Shinji's S-dat in front of him. Shinji was surprised that she took it with her. Normally she doesn't do anything without anyone giving her an order.

Shinji than looked away from her. "You can keep it. I don't need it anymore."

Rei continued to stare at him than she suddenly grabbed his hand then gave him back his S-date tape recorder by placing it on his hand. Shinji looked at her as he wondered what was going on inside her head. It was always hard to tell.

"It's true If I was alive right now. I would probably be angry at you too," said Toji as he stood behind Rei Q as he stared down at Shinji. "But are you seriously going to allow those jerks at WILLE push you around?"

"I should just accept my punishment. even if I run away where would I go?" mumbled Shinji.

"Anywhere would be better than WILLE or Nerv," said Rei who also stood behind Rei Q. "You have a choice Shinji. You have a reason to live."

"No, I don't. I deserve to die. How can I forgive myself after what I've done? Despite the fact that I was tricked it doesn't change anything. I deserve what's coming to me !!" He shouted as he shooked his head in frustration.

"I thought I told you to SHUT UP!!!" Asuka than kicked Shinji in the face as he started tumbling down the hill a little. His face was lying against the red ground as he laid there feeling a bit dazed from Asuka's kick. Asuka stared at him with cold eyes as she watched Shinji started to crawl back up to his knees. Asuka couldn't tell if she pitied him or not. He was still a weak stubborn little boy crying out for love. Who would love him? Who would care for him? No one cause he was nothing but a coward. Asuka couldn't even believe she once had feelings for this little brat. "...Pathetic." She mumbled coldly while still staring at him with those cold eyes.

Rei Q still emotionlessly stared at him as she then got up and walked towards him again. She watched the broken boy crying on the ground like a sad puppy howling for someone to love him. Asuka looked away in disgust as she continued to try to get in contact.

"...Shinji" Shinji slowly looked up at Rei Q who was still staring at him with curiosity. "Shinji....why are you crying?"

"I...I" Shinji couldn't even speak wright anymore as he muttered each word with a sob. "I don't...know w-what to do."

Rei still stood there staring at him but then suddenly her face expression started to change. Rei Q gave Shinji a small but sweet smile. "...You can start by smiling."

The broken boy looked up at her with shock as he remembered those words. It's what he said to the original Rei Ayanami after the fight with the fifth angel. "...Rei."

"...so Shinji. What are you going to do?" asked Kaworu who suddenly appeared again.

"You have a choice Shinji," said Rei

"Don't let it all end like this man," said Toji who appeared after Rei and Kaworu.

"It doesn't have to end in a bad ending," said Kensuke who smiled. "This worlds already dead but you still have a chance."

"But h-how?" Shinji asked.

" Eva Unit-1 is like no other but since Misato has it you must go find Eva unit 13 and you'd find the answer," replied Kaworu.

"Shinji." Shinji than looked at Rei Q who was still staring at him. "Could make me one promise?" Shinji listened in as he was interested in hearing what Rei Q wanted from him. "Could you promise me, that you'll live."

Everything became silent for a while. It's been a while since anyone showed that they cared for him. Rei Q, a clone of his mother who wanted him to live. Shinji wasn't sure what was going on but it seems Rei Q is starting to show some feelings for once. He wasn't sure how that was possible for a girl who was like a mindless robot.

Even this changes nothing how he generally felt but he somehow gave him the will to want to live again. He wasn't sure if it will stay that way but determined enough to try. Shinji knew Asuka wouldn't let him run off freely. She'd chase him down and catch him before he'd even get too far but He needed to act now.

"This is Shigeru Aoba. What's your position Eva pilot Asuka?" asked one of the technicians of the AAA Wunder.

"Finally, I got a signal." Said Asuka as she was relieved that she was finally going to get picked up. She was getting tired of waiting around here. "I'm at-"

"RRAAAAAAAAW!!" She was suddenly cut off by a punch in the face by Shinji. She tumbled down the hill while Shinji started making a break for it.

"That little brat!!" said Asuka as she started to get right back up. "How dare he hit me while I'm not looking...again!! IM GONNA MAKE HIM SUFFER!!" She roared as she ran after him. She was really pissed now. "Never before have I been hit by anyone but by stupid Shinji of all people? I'm gonna bring him back to WILLE with bruises on his face!!"

Suddenly Rei Q grabbed Asuka and held her against her will to give Shinji a running start. "GET OFF OF ME!!! YAH STUPID DOLL!!!"

"Go Shinji, be free. And don't look back!" mumbled Rei Q as watch Shinji runs while holding down the rampaging redhead german girl.

Shinji ran as fast as he could while not even tempted to glance behind him as his main goal was to escape Asuka, Escape from WILLE, Escape from his father, Escape this horrible twisted world. For now on, Shinji Ikari takes orders from no one. Not from Gendo, Not from Misato, not from anyone ever again. He must continue to look forward to his new future.

"Shinji Ikari !!"

Suddenly the young Japanese boy suddenly woke up from the slap of the ruler of his teacher. He didn't even realize he was sleeping until the teacher woke him up. Everyone in the room was laughing quietly at Shinji's at the scene of him being yield at again by his homeroom teacher.

"Sleeping again I see. Could you repeat to me what I just said?" Asked Ms. Cheerilee who angerly scowled at Shinji for his sleeping issue.

"Huh...I-I...your were t-talking about the neanderthal?" Shinji answered nervously. "Homosapien?"

"And what came before Homosapien?" She asked again looking at him while cocking one of her eyes. She was even tapping her foot on the ground impatiently.

"Um, Homo erectus ?"

Cheerilee stared at him for a while then she nodded her head. "Very good. It seems you can listen while sleeping in class." Shinji sighs in relief as he felt he dodged a bullet. "but I will not tolerate this kind of behavior in my class. Try to get some sleep tonight Shinji."

Ms. Cheerilee than continued teaching her while Shinji looked out the window looking at the peaceful blue sky. The birds were chirping, people were taking care of their own businesses. It was almost like the Third Impact never hit them. Not even the second impact hit them either. This was truly a world without angels or Evas. No Nerv, no Seele, Not even WILLE. This truly was a peaceful world, well more peaceful compared to the world he came from at least. The only thing these people knew in their lives were normal and historical events. World war 1, World war 2, Vietnam, the cold war. All of it was chaos and destruction caused by other humans. Not Angels. Then again it was actually humans that caused the third impact but lucky for this world there are no angels.

Then suddenly the bell rang. Once it rung everyone in the class got up and grabbed their things. "Alright remember class, I want you all to study for the upcoming test. Don't forget."

Everyone left the class but before Shinji could leave he was stopped by Ms. Cheerilee. "Shinji Ikari, can I speak to you for just a moment."

Shinji really wasn't in the mood for a lecture but he knew he had no choice but to listen to the teacher's rant on about how he should get some better sleep and try to pay attention next time. Shinji walked towards Ms. Cheerilee's desk with a bored expression on his face as he wanted to roll his eyes so bad.

When everybody left Cheerilee started to speak. "Listen Shinji, this is becoming concerning. Every time I look at you, you look like something is bothering you. You come here half asleep, tired and there been rumors going around that you're being picked on. What's going on? Talk to me?"

"Its nothing Ms. Cheerilee." he simply responded.

"Nothing? Sure doesn't look like anything," she said with a worried look. "Shinji please, talk to me. It's my job to be concern about my students. Have you been seeing that therapist like I asked?"

"Yes." Said simply. "Every once a week."

"Shinji, I'm not buying that there isn't anything wrong with you. You're at school. This is the safest place in town. So whatever is bothering you can come and tell me or talk to your friends." Shinji doubted that. Why would she care about him? She doesn't even know him.

"Thanks for your concern. Ms. Cheerilee." Shini said with a smile. "But really I'm fine."

Ms. Cheerille sighed as she decided to let it go for now. "Alright go but remember Shinji I'm always here if you want to talk. Okay."
Shinji nodded as he understood and left to his next class. "That boy. I can never figure what's going on in his head."

A while later Shinji was in the hallway trying to make it to his next class. When he turned around to the next hall he suddenly stopped as he saw none other than Gilda pushing another student against the lockers. She was mean, even though she wasn't as aggressive compared to Asuka She actually hits harder than her.

Before Shinji could turn around and look for another path to class Gilda noticed him and called him out. "Hey, weakling! Get your ass over here now!"

He really didn't want to but last time he fled he couldn't even get away from her. Gilda was a total thug and tougher than most girls in this school. One time she put a couple of guys in the hospital. Surprising that she wasn't even expelled. She was also an ex-friend of Rainbow Dash but that was a while ago before he even became a student in Cantorlot High. One of the most important things Shinji knew about Gilda is that she is not the type of person anyone would wanna mess with. Gilda hits harder than most guys. She is taller, not to mention more muscular than Shinji. She was the next big thing after Sunset Shimmer turned over a new leaf.

Shinji was very scrawny compared to her and he knew getting on her bad wasn't the wise idea. "Oh, h-hey Gilda. I don't have any money on me today but if give me some time I'll get you money next week." He said with a polite smile.

"You think I'm stupid to fall for that," she said as she aggressively grabbed Shinji and dragged him to the boy's bathroom not caring that she was about to enter a boy's only room."How about you and I have a little chat."

Shinji's head was dunked into the toilet as Gilda shove him in there. He had a hard time breathing as the dirty water filled his lungs. Gilda than pulled his head out as he coughs repeatedly from the toilet water. "So are you gonna play games or are you gonna hand over the cash?"

Shinji didn't answer which made Gilda dunk his head in even more. Gilda pushed his head in even deeper with her boot. Gilda pulled him out again then opened up another stall and saw that someone forgot to flush. "Hey look stupid Shinji. A fresh one." She grinned at him as Shinji stared at the un-flushed toilet in fear.

"N-No, no please." Then she immediately shoved his face in that one as well. The smell was unbearable. He felt like he was gonna vomit. Than after Gilda was tired of that then she shoved him against the bathroom wall very hard. Hurting Shinji in the process.

"Come on Stupid Shinji. You know the rules. Just give me what I want and I'll let ya go." Shinji was struggling against her strength. She was too strong for him to fight back. Than suddenly Gilda shoved her hand in his pocket as she pulled out his wallet. "Well, well that's more liked it."

"No please, I need that money for my medication!"

"But I need it for my Medication." Gilda imitated. "You sound like a whiney wimp!" Than Gilda gutted Shinji so hard that he couldn't breathe for about ten seconds. Shinji than collapsed on the floor as clutched at his stomach Gilda punched so hard. "See yah later stupid Shinji." Gilda than left the boys bathroom leaving Shinji on the floor covered in urine.

A couple of the other students that were in the stalls quietly opened their doors as they cautiously looked out for Gilda. Everyone at school thought Sunset Shimmer was bad but Gilda, on the other hand, was worse. They saw Gilda handy work before and in horror, they heard the new kid Shinji take such a beating. They all stared at Shinji he was lying there silently not bothering to even get up.

Shinji lade there not caring if the other students were staring at him. Shinji was stuck in a trance as he thought back to his old life compared to this one. Just like this old life, people didn't care about him however he was actually fine with that. He didn't need friends. His old friends betrayed him but at least in this world nobody is using him as a tool to hurt other people. He'd rather be in this world than his old one.

Shinji Ikari walking in the hallway as everyone covered their nose as he walked by them as they could smell the urine on him.

"Eew."

"Take a bath man."

"Not again!"

"That's nasty."

Shinji didn't care. He just tuned them out. However, he had to get rid of the stink somehow. He thought of an idea. He made his way outside into the parking lot as he saw the school was still doing a fundraiser by having a car wash so he decided to use one of the water hoses.

"Thank you for coming!" greeted one of the female students.

"Um e-excuse me? Could you-" suddenly Shinji was cut off as the girl was startled by Shinji who stood behind her and by the smell as well.

"Yaaaaah!" She shouted as she sprayed him with the hose

Later Shinji went to his next class which was chemistry. When he walked in the door he was greeted by another upset teacher named Ms. Polymer who was the school's science teacher.

"Your late again Shinji-" suddenly Twilight Sparkle had an unexpected chain reaction with the chemicals she was mixing.

"KA-BOOOM!!!"

Everyone in the room looked at Twilight as the explosion dazed her to the point where she then fell down unconscious. The science teacher placed her hands over her eyes in frustration. "Just, just go take a seat Shinji."

Shinji looked around for an opened seat however every time he saw an opened seat the student next that seat glared at him as they didn't want him anywhere near them. The only opened seat where no one wouldn't mind sitting next to was none other than...

"Oh, Oh Shinji, Shinji. Over here, over here!" said Pinkie Pie with a bright smile as bounce up and down repeatedly in Excitement. Shinji was hoping he wouldn't sit next to her. Ever since he got here that pink haired girl named Pinkie Pie annoyed him. Shinji never understood why she was so interested in being his friend. It was almost like she was forcing herself on him but he could never tell what her motives were. Either way, she was very annoying.

"Eerr," Said Shinji in annoyance but tried to be polite to her anyway. "H-hey Pinkie Pie."

"Hey, Gloomy pants, come sit next to me." It wasn't like he had a choice so sat down next to her and put on the safety goggles. "Hey, Shinji did you see Twilight blow herself up again? HAhaha!" giggled Pinkie Pie trying to start a conversation with the jaded boy.

"Yeah.....funny," He said in a noncaring tone as looked at the instruction for the next assignment.

"Hey, Shinji." Shinji rolled his eyes wondering what she wanted this time. "I've noticed you haven't shown up to any one of my parties. I'm pretty sure I left an invite in your locker." Pinkie Pies voice sounded a little bit sadder than usual. Shinji knew she was a bit upset that he didn't show any of her parties for about the third time. "I mean you did get my invites right?"

Shinji stood there silently wondering what to say to her. He didn't want to hurt her feelings but he knew one of these days he had to at least attend one of her parties at some point. "I'm sorry Pinkie pie, I've been busy with studying and I've also been working a lot lately. I'll try to make it to the next. Promise."

Pinkie pie smiled brightly at that as she thought of an idea just for a little insurance. "Do you Pinkie Promise?"

"Pinkie Promise?"

Pinkie Nodded as raised her right hand up while having her pinky figure poke up like a hook. "And once you make that promise, you can't break it." Shinji thought about for a moment. He has never been to a lot of parties nor was ever invited to one. Maybe he should go to one just to change things up in his life. He doubted that anything will change if he goes to this party but at least he'll be doing something other than just going to school, going to work, visited the therapist every Wednesday and just repeating the same routine over and over again. Maybe him going will shake things up a bit. Who knows.

"Alright. I'll go." Shinji replied as he placed his pinky figure with hers. "I promise."

"That's great!!" She shouted as she immediately gave him a bear hug. Shinji immediately started to regret this as she was suffocating him. Shinji's face was turning red by her strong bear hug. "We are gonna have SO MUCH FUN!!! I can't wait, I can't wait, I CAN"T WAAAIT!!"

"Pinkie, Pinkie...Let me go! I can't breathe! Someone help!!" Pegged Shinji but everyone in the class only stared at the two in amusement.

Later on, Shinji made it to the lunchroom. He didn't have money on him for lunch since Gilda stole it from him....again. Shinji wasn't sure how he was gonna pay for medication. He barely had enough for himself to buy food since the medication he buys costs a lot of money. Looks like he might have to look for another job.

He looking for an empty seat for he couldn't bother anybody. He found one table where a group was eating and hanging out but only on one side of the table. Shinji decided to side on the other side where it was empty and where he couldn't bother them but when they noticed Shinji sitting on the empty side they immediately moved to a deferent table. It was only him now that was sitting on this table.

Shinji felt very hungry. He wasn't sure what he was gonna do about lunch. He didn't have enough money on his debit card either and to make matters worse-

"Hey, Shinji!!" Shinji than saw Pinkie pie with two trays of lunch as she made her way towards him. When she sat right next to him she placed the second try in front of him. "I've noticed you didn't have lunch so I got you one." She said as she started eating hers.

Shinji was surprised. Nobody has ever been this nice to him not since... Shinji shook those thoughts away as he didn't want to think about his past life. The past is dead, so were the people who were close to him. That's what his therapist kept telling him at least. "Thank you Pinkie Pie but...why are you being so nice to me?"

Pinkie pie than gave him a questionable look as she swallowed her food. "Well are friends aren't we?" Despite how nice Pinkie pie was doing when she said that it almost made Shinji think about his past life. Shinji wanted to smile just so he could look grateful but that only made him even more depressed.

Pinkie Pie noticed him frowning at her words. She'd hoped he didn't offend him. "Hey, what's wrong? I hope I didn't hurt your feelings-"

"No, no It's fine. It's just...its been while since anybody has done anything so generous." Shinji explained as tried to crack a small smile.

"Seems not everyone has been very nice to you have they?" she asked as Shinji shooked his head in reply. "Well don't worry. I'll help yah make friends. If there anybody in this school who knows anything about friendship, it's me!"

"Friends huh? I think I'd rather be alone." He thought.

"Hey I got an idea I should introduce to you all my friends. Your gonna love them. There Sunset Shimmer, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Fluttershy and Rarity." said Pinkie Pie as she went on and on about all the stuff she and friends been through like an Alternate Twilight came to their school and about all the crazy stuff that happened at friendship games including the stuff that went down at camp Everfree.

Shinji didn't believe in any of that nonsense. He assumed she made that up just so she'd have a story to share. Then again wouldn't that mean she really does want to be his friend?

While Pinkie Pie and Shinji Ikari were talking to one another. The rest of the main six were watching the two from the other table. Sunset Shimmer Stared at the young Japanese student with curiosity as she doesn't know much about Shinji. She wasn't sure why she was interested in learning about the boy. When she first saw him he looked so jaded and depressed. Some of the other students have said that he looked like he came out of a war. He's only been here for three weeks and this whole school has already treated as an outcast. He has no friends and has been bullied by Gilda every chance she gets. Perhaps this could be an opportunity to solve a friendship problem but the thing is can she? All she and her friends have been doing is trying to capture Equestrian magic that has made its way to their world. She's pretty confident that she can do it. If the princess of friendship can do it, why can't she? How hard can it be right?

To be Continued.
