Hyperdimension Neptunia: Game On!
Prologue
Tetsuya didn't know that falling from the sky was going to be the norm when entering a new dimension, but fortunately, he never suffered any dangerous impacts that would immediately result in him becoming a literal human pancake. That was his last thought before he lost consciousness. From a bird's eye view, the air pressure that surrounded him made him seem like a tiny white contrail whose velocity was going down like a meteor.
…
In an innocent bright sunny day, a young girl strolls along her nation's roads, subsequently marking it as the best location. The best location, as she labeled it, had no monsters to deal with so it was a place of peace and quiet, and a spot to hide in if she ran away from her workplace. This girl, full of smiles and joy, was skipping her duties as usual and had run away from the place where her work was currently stocked in with mountain loads of paperwork. Her face had no regret, so she brushed it off. However, another girl anxiously followed her with a habitual moment of putting her hand near her chest.
"Onee-chan! Are you sure we should be doing this?" This girl was relatively taller and looked more mature than the girl who was called big sister, sis, big sis, etc.
"Come on Nep Jr.! It's fine, it's fine, Histy will understand~"
"But the last time you said that she made us do seiza and lectured us for 3 hours…" The older- looking girl whispered, in a regretful voice.
That's when she looked up, she spotted a tiny white contrail coming down near them. She went up to the young girl and pointed to the sky. "Hey, sis, what's that coming down?" She also thought it was an unusual looking one that kept moving left, right, top, and bottom (basically random movements).
"Huh?" She looked at the blue sky and saw the white streak coming down to the ground. That moment, the contrail disappeared for a few seconds until both of them heard a large boom-like sound resounding in their eardrums.
"Whoah, now that was loud!"
"I hear you."
"And that means it's investigation time!" Neptune pumped out a fist to the sky.
"Wh-What!? B-But, Onee-chan-" The mature-looking girl placed a hand on her shoulder.
"It's alright Nepgear, I mean it could be someone, you know. It's not like I'm using this chance to escape from work. I'm doing my job as a CPU right…?"
"W-Well, yes, but-" Unfortunately, that "yes" made the short girl drag the tall girl with her.
"Then let's get going!"
"Eh!? Onee-chan?" And so, the duo skedaddled to the road to where the so-called meteor had landed.
During this period, the other three leaders were occupied in doing their own tasks as well. The leader of the northern country was actually the only one doing work, mainly paperwork, manually and electronically. Her little sister who secretly wanted her approval was working on the paperwork too. In this case, she hoped for her sister's attention, who was always such a workaholic, that it would be expected that she (the younger sister) would do better. The country's leader on the north-east side was doing work a few minutes ago but she decided to skip out on it by doing the other peculiar work that she would always do at night. Her little sisters were pranking the servants of the castle. This leader had a short-tempered outburst as the sounds clamored into her private room. The little sisters ran away full force when she was trying to discipline them. Finally, the leader at the south-east was not doing her work as well, but the person who would assign her paperwork and outside work, loved her to extreme bits, so she was laid off sometimes. The leader, with a personally made headset, was yelling out the screen to move and to command with a game controller in her hands.
This was the daily life of the land called Gamindustri. This daily life, however, was interrupted by this meteor(?)'s particular landing.
After the dust settled from the unexpected landing, Tetsuya laid on the ground, still unconscious. The girls had finally arrived at the destination where it landed. The ground in front of them bore a crater and something in the center of the crater. Both slid down to the crater and checked the condition of the object.
It was obvious by the distance between them what the object looked like. The object was a human by the male sex, with unnatural pink hair and an unusual set of colors of fire on the right set of his bangs. He looked to be almost at the same age as the tall girl if they compared their heights. His clothing was quite normal, coordinating a black tee-shirt with a handmade blue navy-colored unbuttoned dress shirt, and black straight jeans, finishing with clean casual bright red shoes with white laces.
Topping off the accessories, he wore a black and white checkered wristband on his right side and a plain white mp3 headset.
He still breathed, his chest going up and down in rhythm, and he looked perfectly okay despite that meteor-like impact that destroyed a section of Neptune's place of relaxation.
The tall girl spoke, "Onee-chan, is this man-"
"This man," Neptune grunted and finally pointed "is an alien!"
"A-Alien? O-Onee-chan it's rude to speculate that…" The girl shrugged her shoulders at her sister's response. Neptune with one eye bent down and stared upon the man, checking every aspect of his features.
"Hmm…" She placed a hand on her chin and puckered her lips in frustration.
"Onee-chan?"
"Hmmmmmm… this guy comes from another world!" Now she's just randomly making guesses out of the blue. Nepgear sweat-dropped and sighed, "Onee-chan. We should help him now." When she laid one hand on his chest, he suddenly shuddered, shocking both girls and moving away from him.
"Whoops/Ah!" They shrieked, the man opening his eyelids at last.
In a close-up, this man revealed his eyes to be a pure, clear cerulean. It was so pure that it was similar to a mirror. It speculated that the man could see through the hidden secrets of humans. Or perhaps, it was the immutable expression he always kept that no one could deduce what he felt. Slowly, the boy brought himself up and placed a hand on his face.
The boy responded. "I feel like someone just called me an alien?" He brought his hand down and looked all over. In a second, however, he saw the duo before him who still kept their distance from him.
Without hesitation, he began his montage of questions to himself. He crossed his arms and closed his eyes, his brow furrowed. "Nope, nope. This is a dream. This is a dream. No doubt. I remember cleaning the shed-" He opened his eyes and said, "-Then what happened?" While trying to remember all the details, the short girl popped up all of a sudden in his vision.
He blankly looked at her, with no surprise. "Um, yes?" From this distance, he smelled fresh lavender shampoo and soup from her, but he didn't seem so enthralled at all.
"Heeeyyyyy, are you the guy Histy was talking about?" A weird question to ask a stranger who fell from the sky.
"Excuse me?" He scooted himself away from her and got up, patting himself down. There weren't any scratches on him though which caught his attention.
"You mean with Histoire-san this morning?"
"Yeah, yeah. She looked all serious and all and had this dream some guy would see me?"
"Um, yes, but probably not at the end part, Onee-chan."
The mysterious man interrupted the conversation with a question. "Wait, this girl is your older sister?" He pointed to "Onee-chan" looking at the tall girl.
"Ah yes, people often confuse me as the older sister, but my sister, Neptune, is actually the older one." From the looks of it, she was telling the truth. The girl that looked older than the girl who had stood in front of the man, she had flowing purple hair with a few hairs sticking out; they were perfectly symmetrical at the ends of hair except a piece that flung up to the sky on the right side of her bangs. Her outfit was similar to a Japanese middle school uniform except it was a purple and white one piece. Other than that, a pale-yellow ascot piece that was hooked both sides by using a plastic circle center that had the initial "N" and a plastic bracelet-like collar on her neck. Now, the girl who was the older sister was a short girl who looked to be reaching puberty, had unkempt hair, and wore a dark purple one-piece skirt coupled with a white jacket.
Her. A conclusion the man stayed with. "But."
Nepgear asked; "Can we ask who you are?"
The man or boy in a sense stared at the duo with his habitual blank face and introduced himself.
"My name is Yuugita Tetsuya." The name in which every nation's leader would eventually know soon enough soon turned to be something even more for the boy to find out. Tetsuya had acknowledged that where he was standing now, it wasn't a dream. He didn't feel cognition. He didn't feel weird. He didn't feel out of balance.
It was reality.
…
The boy, Tetsuya, had crash-landed in the land called Planeptune. Following the two sisters, he curiously looked around the city. Planeptune's technology was far more advanced than the world Tetsuya had come from, on some many levels. All the tall and short buildings that were uniformly lined up looked like a city of Earth in the far, far future. Tetsuya could imagine what his childhood friends would say if they saw this city.
Then, he looked at the sisters, discerning any similarities and differences. Neptune and Nepgear both had the same eye color and hair, the colors on their set of clothing sort of complemented each other. Yet, despite the height difference and physical appearance, Neptune was the rambunctious older sister who had a lazy and a fairly weird way of talking towards people. Her rambunctious nature seemed like it would make her not listen to people (which is true, at most times) and would often lead to the stupidest scenarios. In this case, Nepgear was the polite, clean, and mature younger sister that would stop her older sister from doing the craziest things.
"Histy! We're home!" A miniature person, who was at a baby's height, came… floating on a book. Tetsuya mentally sweat-dropped at his reality as she welcomed the sisters home. She held the appearance of a fairy. The floating four pieced wings alike to a butterfly, her size, her voice, those characteristics were the most distinguishing for the word.
When she saw Tetsuya, she looked absolutely astonished, with her tiny hand near her mouth.
"Y-You are- "She began.
(Here we go.) He mentally shrugged his shoulders and sighed, knowing where this conversation was going. He stuffed his pockets and looked at her calmly.
"Histy we found the guy you dreamed about! Aren't we so great and awesome, Nep. Jr.?" She bragged as she elbowed her younger sister. Histoire slowly went to the three, or more specifically, to Tetsuya.
"That pink hair, those bangs, those headphones… and your blue eyes." Tetsuya looked slightly away and Histoire coughed into a fisted hand.
He said to her. "I suppose you are Histoire? The person who apparently had a vision about me?" Catching her attention with the question, she replied. "Yes, I have had many dreams about you, um."
"Yuugita Tetsuya."
"Tetsuya-san, have you come from another world by any chance?"
"...Yes."
"Gee, is the story going to focus on a male character now? Wait, is it going to be a love story now!?" Or is he going to take my place as the protagonist of protagonists!?"
The girl on the floating tome sighed, "Neptune-san…"
"...Onee-chan. I think Histoire-san wants you to be quiet." She continued to blabber on, Histoire apologized. "Excuse her, she's always been like this." She said to Tetsuya.
"It's fine." He's dealt with these kinds of people in his life but nothing gets to changing Tetsuya Yuugita's inexpressive face.
Histoire asked again. "Do you remember what you did before you came here?"
"...I believe I was cleaning my family's shed and I found something unusual."
"Is it this by any chance?" Nepgear dug into her pocket and held out a small circular device to him. "This morning, this thing smashed our windows. The components inside seem okay but I've never seen anything like it."
"Yeah, you should have seen her entering in her own world of looking at this thingie," Neptune said.
Tetsuya saw the device had been cleaned by Nepgear. The components inside were fine, it just wouldn't activate.
"Can I see it?"
"Oh, um sure." She hesitantly handed it to him and he began looking it all over, pressing down where something would click.
"Yeah, it doesn't activate. But I know this came from the shed." Eyeing the object discreetly, Neptune suggested. "Why don't we smack it? That's what I always do when I have a game not working."
"I'm pretty sure it just lost power." Tetsuya kept pressing a button on the device with nothing happening. This only brought out a heavy sigh from his as he gave it back to her.
He rubbed the back of his hair and thought to himself.
(Well, just got to find another way back.)
Noticing his expression, Histoire suddenly proposed something to him.
"Um, Tetsuya-san, if you like, would you like to work here?"
The choice was his to decide. This arrival was abrupt and weirdly fated, just like those characters whose lives were normal and unchanging. Two extremely close friends and the family "traveling" the world, were oblivious to the disappearance of Tetsuya Yuugita. Eventually, the latter will know first of his disappearance.
He immediately answered, "Okay."
What easy choices could he see? A lot of them but he stuck with the choice of working in the largest building of Planeptune, the Planeptower.
And that's when the two sisters sneaked off and decided to call the leaders of each nation of their situation.
AN: Finally, a prologue that is actually long! Well, Scarlet letter was like... two pages? Yeah, I read that, pretty interesting. Anyway, you probably thinking "Zoarak, u already have this crappy OC in the fanfic", "Zoarak, you finally made ur own story of nep"... Yeah, yeah, and happy my very first fanfic was favorited and followed!
Seriously, you guys are the best! Honestly, I want to continue the first one but it's like plagiarising the entire game for the story, and I felt like I needed to make a story that I could choose what to do with it. I think I might put it on a hiatus but I would change the entire story's events instead of functioning the story to the game and adding extra scenes I created if I go back to it.
Again, thank you so much for the support on Hyperdimension Neptunia: Generation of True Gods
Thanks to RayGaming for still supporting and wanting to put a character in such a crappy fanfic. Don't worry, whether you wish or not, I'll add your character. If you guys are going to submit OCs too, PLEASE put them in your best description and I'll see if the profile will fit in the story.
Righteo! To embark the next chapter! Right, Tetsuya?
Tetsuya: Yes.
Alright, hopefully no writer's block won't bother much! I still have to stay true to reality, unfortunately, but I'll always have my stories to comfort in. Well, see you guys in the next chapter. Bye!
