"Oh hell," said Fuyutsuki as restraints abruptly cracked and fell apart.
The eyes of the panda opened, seeming to glow like laser cannon that were being charged up.
"I've got a really bad feeling about this," said Maya from her own console.
"The tube is rated sufficiently strong that it could be on the bottom of the Marianas Trench," said Makoto. "It'll hold."
WHAM! went a panda-claw into the thick plasteel.
"See?" said Makoto, relaxing a little himself.
WHAM! WHAM! WHAM! WHAM! crack!
"Oh HELL," said half the staff.
"Final option, use it now," instructed Gendo, calm but intense. That he'd dialed the one-man lift and it now stood ready to whisk him and Yui away was one source of that calm. "Now."
Shigeru's hand slapped down on the big red button. Poisonous substances injected into the tube's environment.
"RAGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" roared the giant panda.
Current mass: 500kg
Current mass: 800kg
CRASH!
"RAGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" repeated the giant panda, dripping materials off of his fur as he stood at his full height of five meters and stepped away from the shattered tube.
"No freaking way! Those neurotoxins should have killed him instantly," said Shigeru.
Gendo whispered to the shell that had formerly been known as Yui Ikari, who then stood and walked over to a circular platform.
"GRARRRRRR!" announced the six-meter high panda as he charged the inner walls of his cell/ampitheatre. Considering he had charged the side closest to the bridge crew was quickly and easily interpreted.
"Commander, what do we..." Shigeru noticed that Ikari was already gone, Fuyutsuki was quietly exiting the door, and that an outraged mutant panda was slicing through the plexiglass containment wall like it was thin paper.
"The door - he locked it behind him!" said Maya, trying the door Fuyutsuki had gone through.
"Lift's unresponsive," said Makoto, continuing to jab at the controls.
"GRARRHHHHH!" declared the panda, going to all fours and firing off an energy beam from his mouth that slammed Maya through the door she'd been standing in front of. Also creating a nice round tunnel.
The panda reared back onto his hind legs again, head digging a furrow into the ceiling.
Shigeru and Makoto tried to dodge the oncoming monster.
"Uhm," said the junior operative as he listened to his headset. "You know how we were monitoring GEHIRN for their power use experiments?
"Yes, something came up?" asked the senior.
"Their experimental warehouse at the riverfront just exploded, with some sort of giant monster coming out of it," said the junior.
"A what?" asked the senior.
"Apparently it's a giant panda," said the junior operative, trying to get a video feed. "There."
The senior blinked. "Okay. You don't see something like THAT every day."
"I'd say a twenty-meter tall panda counts as something unusual, even by OUR standards," admitted the junior.
"Well, we've got them for experimenting on an endangered species at least," said the senior. "See if there's a satellite that can get a view in past the smoke. If we can get firecrews in there, make sure at least one of them has some of our field agents among them. Then we've also got to come up with something to do about that panda."
