WMG / The Death of One

This is a possible -non-canonical- ending of the story

Right after her talk with Gendo, Asuka met a stranger called Daniel which said he found she had been treated very poorly and he would like being her friend, helping her and bringing back everything had been taken from her. He also hinted mysteryously he had done the same the thing for other Shinjis and Asukas. Asuka was skeptic, but she accepted her offer.

Then he extracted Shinji from Unit 01, brought Rei back -pulling her from the time-stream a split-second before her death-, united her soul -which was split between her body, Lilith's and Unit 00-, and transported the trio to his own dimension.

Shinji, Asuka and Rei travelled to one of the planet resorts of Avalon and remained there resting and healing for a while. In that world they found several counterparts of theirs:

• Their alternate selves of Nobody Dies, Last Child of Krypton and Superwomen of Eva 2: Lone Heir of Krypton got them shocked and impressed due to their badassery.
• Their alternates of Children of an Elder God freaked them out.
• Their counterparts of Higher Learning, Once More with Feeling, The Second Try, amnd RE-TAKE talked them about their time-travelling adventures...
• Their selves of The Second Try and The Child of Love introduced Aki and Teri to them.
• Their alternates of The One I Love Is..., HERZ and Evangelion 303 made them wondering what kind of lives they could have led in other worlds.
• Their selves of Advice and Trust made them cringing by showing what could have happened if they had not ruined a simple kiss.
• And their counterparts of Scar Tissue and A Crown of Stars taught them that things could be way worse... but even then, it is possible finding happiness.

While they are talking to their counterparts and having therapy Daniel is working on The Death Of One timeline to set thigs right and is getting ready to stomp SEELE. The Super Robot Wars army has offered their assistance, but before travelling to that timeline they visit the "The Death Of One" Shinji, Asuka and Rei. Super Robot Wars Shinji, Asuka and Rei meet their TDOO selves and introduce them to Kouji Kabuto, Ryoma Nagare, Amuro Rei... and very especially Noriko Takaya and Simon the Digger. They also tell the TDOO Children they do not need to fight anymore if they do not want.

The campaign is successfull, SEELE gets defeated, all Evas are destroyed only in case, and the trio is capable to return to their world to try live peacefully from now on.
