Neon Genesis Nerv Novels & Stories

they chorused. I shut my bedroom door and flopped onto the bed for a second, staring at the email again. Holy crap. This was happening. For once, life was throwing me a win. A massive, life-changing win. This is the best day of my life. *...*...*...*...*...* ETHAN ♠ This is the worst day of my life. I’m sprawled on my bed with my controller in hand, mid-match in Valorant, when Mom bursts through my door without knocking.

The first thing she noticed was the thick, silver chains on his neck before she peered at her face. The lights were suddenly dimmed so she failed to figure out the mysterious silhouette. But her breath hitched the moment her chocolate hues connected with the dark obsidian ones. “Y-You-” Broken incoherent words escaped her mouth before she gave in to darkness. *****

"Together." The Strike The Icarus beam hit the roof of the NeoGenics Tower. The top ten floors evaporated instantly. Steel turned to gas. Glass turned to dust. The sound was a roar that swallowed the world, a frequency so loud it became silence. Down in the sub-level, Jade and Caspian reached for each other's other hand, closing the circuit. They weren't just a man and a woman anymore; they were a dual-core processor for the most dangerous code ever written.

“The serum, Liana. Your body emits trace energy signatures when your adrenaline spikes. They can trace that, especially if they know what frequency to look for.” “So you’re saying—” “I’m saying we need to find a way to stop them from using it.” I shake my head. “And how do we do that?” He hesitates. “There’s one place left that can neutralize the signal.” I can tell by his face that I’m not going to like what comes next. “Where?” “The Genesis Facility,” he says. “Where it all began.” The name sends a chill through me. That place isn’t just a lab. It’s where my memories end — where everything I don’t remember starts.

“It was Voss’s first experiment in neural fusion. Before me. Before Genesis.” Ezra added, “It was rumored to be an AI/human hybrid, genetically grown, psychically bonded to its creator. But it was too dangerous. Unpredictable.” Alma nodded. “It nearly killed Voss. He buried it. Deep beneath the ice. But if the Genesis collapse triggered its resurrection” Her voice trailed off. Ezra spoke the rest. “It won’t just threaten cities. It’ll rewrite humanity.” Ember stepped forward, fists clenched. “Then we stop it. We’ve done the impossible before.”

But the hurt in his eyes was impossible to miss. For the first time— The perfect control cracked. And behind it— Aruna finally saw what remained of the boy who had spent fifteen years waiting. Completely broken. Then Orion whispered a sentence that made everyone's blood run cold. "I know." A pause. "That's why I built Genesis." The tunnel fell silent. Because suddenly— Everyone realized the horrifying truth. Genesis wasn't activated to find Aruna. It was activated because Orion couldn't accept losing her again.

When I look back at her, there is a glow around them. I don't know what it is, but Genesis is glowing a yellowish color, like light surrounding him, while the girl, who has yet to tell me her name, is glowing a deep blue. I still don't know what kind of shifter the girl is, but she is reacting to our Genesis. Her eyes find mine as she smiles. "He's cute." With that I think I know what's happening. They are just little kids, but they are bonding. Their souls are meant to be. I let the little one hold him for a minute longer as she looks into his eyes. "Hi, Genesis, I'm Neveah."

" I never expected that from you...not at all" " In as much as I don't want to get angry with you...I just can't help it" He muttered, staring angrily at nothing. He tightened his grip on the side rail of the bed and his body started vibrating in anger. He shut his eyes close, trying to calm his nerves but it wasn't working. Zooming into his DNA , his nucleotides started freezing into ice and before you knew it, ice circulated his whole body. The rail he was gripping on, slowly started freezing to ice.

Evelyn could hear her own heartbeat echoing in the confined space. Then the console lit up with motion sensors. Dozens of signals. “They know we’re here,” she whispered. Alexander’s jaw tightened. “Let them.” A shape loomed out of the darkness ahead, a massive structure of steel and glass embedded beneath the ice. The Genesis Facility. It glowed faintly blue, veins of light pulsing through its walls like a living organism. Evelyn’s breath caught. “It’s beautiful.” Alexander’s voice was cold. “It’s hell.”

Wind howled through the fractured ruins of Nexus Tower. The skyline of the city was a jagged silhouette behind Evryn, as she and Myles descended deeper into what was once the neural heart of the Genesis Network. The girl—now stabilized and resting—was being kept safe in a makeshift containment field, her vitals syncing faintly with Evryn’s own. Each step toward the gate made the air colder, the silence heavier. Beneath their feet, the broken floors of the tower groaned, metal twisting in protest as time and corruption gnawed at its foundations. The beacon from the emblem still pulsed steadily, leading them toward something older than either of them had ever imagined.
