"Welcome aboard the longinus ascendence, I am angelise ikaruga mitsurugi, second in command to, his majesty, lord adriel, you may call me ange" angelise said

"Lord adriel" misato asked

"He hates his human name and intends to change it when he marries until that point he goes by his angel name" ange explained

"He makes you call him, majesty" asuka scoffed

"Make us, oh no, it's the other way around, we insist on calling him such, he is a god after all, now we didn't join his crew because of that, we joined because of other reasons, but we have been with his majesty for some time and have seen his actions first hand, he claims to use his power to redeem himself, but considering he has either aided or outright saved civilizations much larger and more important then your own, entirely on his own, we have taken to respecting him for what he now is, a god" ange said, misato's eyes narrowed at that but said nothing as the group was led through the very well lit vessel, it was clear it was meant to bring comfort to those that crewed it

they were soon led to a very advanced control room

"katsuragi, akagi, langley, ibuki, makinami, it has been some time, as you can see i have not been idle, though i do find it amusing how in fourteen years, i could create an army, whereas, in fourteen years you have almost nothing to say for yourself, and cleansing cities doesn't count you should do that AFTER my father is dead cause if he wins that hard work goes out window" i said

"so what are you gonna face him" asuka asked

"yes and no, i'm going to use his own contingency plan against him, soon all will know my name" i said

"what contingency place" misato asked

"you will see, i would recommend, docking your vessel inside the longinus, if you don't you will likely lose it, also ignore the gebet, i have that, once you are aboard, i will begin my plans to reverse all the damage" i said, misato stared at him, but nodded, he would likely do better then they have been, there wasn't much worse they could do

"sir" angelise said

"what is it ange" i asked

"will your valkyries be required for this mission" angelise asked

"no, why" i asked

"we have a mission of our own we would like to partake in with your permission" salamandinay said

"alright" i said

"i also intend to collect the ryuu-shin-ki, and a couple of the para-mail units, i wish to give them the valkyrie upgrades" salamandinay said, i looked at her, confused but in the end i nodded

"make certain they aren't as powerful as the valkyries" i said

"understood sir" salamandinay said

"permission granted your dismissed" i said

"sir" salia said

"yes" i asked

"we would like to borrow a cruiser" salia said

"that goes without saying, i have already guessed all of the valkyries wish to go on this mission and have already given permission, take what you need, but do NOT do any damage" i said

"SIR" the girls replied as they left the command bridge as misato and her group soon entered

"shinji ikari, i am ordering you to stand down and surrender this vessel" she said as she and her group pointed guns at what was in all intents and purposes their savior

"okay, but i would recommend you don't force me off this deck" i said with a shrug as i rose from my command station, and moved to the side

"why" misato asked, she noticed how he worded he wasn't asking he was recommending

"your about to find out" i said as i watched misato's people attempt to take their places on my bridge keyword being attempt

"captain, i can't make heads or tails of these consoles i'm not even sure i'm at the right station" sumire nagara said, utterly confused

"that's why" i said, misato frowned, as she walked over to nagara's station she promptly stared at it

"what the hell" misato asked

"my ship is more advanced then any piece of technology you will ever see, you are not the first to try and commandeer it from me, and i should warn you if your pilot hits the wrong but, they could turn the anti-grav generators offline and we would plumet to the ground, and cause so much damage, that only i could get the ship in the air again" i said, with a knowing smirk

"so your saying we need you" akagi said

"and i don't need you, i have crewed this ship alone, long before the valkyries showed up, it was built to be almost entirely autonomous, it was inspired by the autonomous assault arks after all, just my own spin on them" i said

"terms" katsuragi said

"i have command of this ship, so i think we should co-lead, all orders involving this ship, i give, anything off this ship is your prerogative" i said, she looked towards Dr. akagi

"we need this ship, so unfortunately we need him" ritsuko said

"oh and i should warn you, this is a bioship, one i have a semi-symbiotic relationship with, i can shut down all the ships systems with just a thought" i said

"warning noted, and we agree with your proposition" katsuragi said, she had seen the data, the took on the wunder she knew what shinji had said was true

"excellent, miss nagara, what station are you" i asked

"ship's pilot" she said

"station to your left" i said

"so i wasn't at the right post" she said

"no that is navigation" i said, and another took that station as i instructed them to their stations

"now the next part will sting a bit, but this is the best way to quickly integrate the knowledge you need to handle the longinus" i said as i gave a mental command to the longinus a second later several gasps were heard throughout the bridge

"what did you-" she stopped as he held out his hand

"watch" i said, she did so, and she watched as her crew who were previously unaware of how the ship worked now worked at the consoles as if they were experts

"i forced all information regarding the station they are at directly into their brains" i said as i retook my seat in the command chair

"course heading" kitakami asked

"well, where are we headed katsuragi" i asked

"we originally intended to head for village three, for resupply and repair" misato said

"well now we can go for a different reason, morale, we can show what is left that not only are we still kicking but we are stronger then ever" i said, as i gave the order, she blinked she hadn't thought of that, but agreed it was a good idea, without the support of the remainder of humanity her organization would fall apart under pressure
