Okay. Just to start off, I was high as fuck when I started writing this story. I had this idea to start writing back in January, but I wanted to play through the other games when I started. Hope you enjoy it. This takes during Victory, and may go back to the other dimensions. The pairings are yuri since there can be no male main characters existing in this series. That is why Naruko is perfect for this role. If I can actually manage to get through Victory, I will do the remakes since I am not likely to play the original games. The some text is pulled directly from the game. Also I'm not going too due descriptions since you know what they look like. Only character I will do it for is Naruko. Also, each paragraph is one character's perspective. That means that their inner thoughts won't be in single quotes, and that each paragraph will show what they are saying, doing, or thinking. Kind of a weird style for me, but it works Neptunia since characters break the fourth wall more than its there.
In a dark room with a tron-like pattern in neon blue decorating the floor. One was a beautiful purplette in a black leather leotard…
"Uh, yea. Can we, like, not do the prologue again? I mean we've done it like a bazillion times already. It gets boring having to repeat the same thing multiple times. You don't got to explain it when I'm sure most of the readers have at least got me to level 6."
B-But I need more words in my first chapter so I can draw more people in to read. It shows
"But I want to see what you are going to change sooner. Plus, wouldn't having chapter 1 as a first chapter bring in more people than just the prologue. Chapter 1 is longer than it."
Hmmm, I guess so.
"See, as the main character, I come up with great ideas that people should thank me for. I accept pudding in particular."
No Nep. Let's just get a move on. And stick to the script. I really need good publicity,
Chapter 1
We rejoin our heroine with her falling once again.
"Whoa, I'm falling. Totally falling, you guys. But, uh, I mean, aren't most of my origin stories like this? Nothing to worry about, or whatever. Still, I've been falling for a while now. It makes me think I'll land in some mysterious new land!" She stops he careless ramblings until she notices how fast she is going and starts to freak out. "…Um, this velocity is no joke. Wait! Could I be…in danger!? That's a bad thing, right? It's super bad news bears. Right!?" Then panic comes into play. After losing her memories the other time she was falling, she did not want to lose them again. "Gaaaah! What do I do!? If only I my certified landing cushion was near by. Then I could land on her. Unfortunately, Noire has to be the lonely and friendless girl that she is and could not be here. She'd honestly have more friends if she just listened to me all the time."
Neptune said useless flailing to look down at the ground below her. "Huh, What're those two blob thingies? Girls? A pair of girls!? Wow, my eyesight is pretty darn amazing. I can make stuff out from this far away. Or maybe it's an evolved kind of kinetic vision! Like I could see a baseball's stiches in motion! Wait! I don't care about that right now! I'm falling so fast and this height and angle means…" A light bulb finally smashed into her head with glass falling everywhere, miraculously landing nowhere near her destination.
"Whoooooa! Move move move move move!"
On the ground at the same time
"Heeeey, waaaait! You're walking soooo fast Noire. Why are we here so early?" An airheaded voice lightly jogged after her friend. It was ungodly to be up at this hour.
"It's 3 in the afternoon. You're just slow. This is why I said you should stay behind and wait for me." Noire said, standing still so her best friend Plutia could catch up. She was honestly too lazy for her own good. It was so unfair that she got to be a CPU when she barely does anything but sleep all day.
"Aww, but I reeeeally wanted to go with you…" Plutia looked up to she a purple blob falling from the sky. "Huh?"
"What is wrong Plutia? What're you spacing out for? I'm kind of in a hurry here." That CPU memory is not just going to wait for her to find it. The sooner she finds it, the sooner she can be a CPU. Then she will be able to form the perfect nation. The name still eludes her. It must be something that shows elegance and strength that no one will be able to compete against.
"Well sure, I know that, but…" The purple blob seemed to be struggling in the air for some reason.
"But what?" As airheaded as Plutia is, she knows that she would not just stop for no reason. While some of the times have been her actually spacing out, it usually was something.
"Ummm, well… Hmm… I wonder how I should put it…" Plutia could make out that the blob was a small girl with purple hair that seemed to be falling pretty fast.
"Jeez, you're such a flake. Hurry up and spit it out." Looks like it was one of those times she is just being airheaded. Noire thought. Her patience is starting to get really thin.
"Um, well, up in the sky. There's some…person."
"A person? In the sky? Did your brain finally abandon you?" No way a person could be flying in the sky. Only a goddess could fly, and I doubt that Lowee's CPU is going to be coming by for a visit.
"Well, more like, the person in the sky is falling. Probably." Looks like that girl is going to land on Noire if she doesn't move.
Yep, Plutia is definitely spacing out. "Ugh, what? We're out in the middle o nowhere, so how and why would someone fall out of the sky?"
"Well, you know, Noire… If you just stand there…" That girl really is going straight for Noire.
"…Where?" Noire just stood there, thinking it was all in Plutia's head.
"Move move move move move move move!"
Noire looked up and saw the girl Plutia was talking about, but couldn't move in time. "Huh? Craaaaaaaaaaaaapplmmmffff!"
Very loud crash!
"Whoa, what a loud crash…!"
Neptune stopped her flailing when she realizes she wasn't dead. For some reason, her landing felt very familiar. It was almost like she landed on Noire, but she is off doing all her work so it can possibly be her. No way she be with another person. "Ouch. Man, that was scary. I bet that even I lost about three years of my life from it."
"Oooh, you're still alive. Um, are you…umm…okay?" Wow, that voice reminds me of Compa's. Just a lot more airheaded.
"What's up? Oh, naw, a fall like this is nothing! I'm used to falling, like a sky falling pro! But yeah, it'd be kinda lame if I lost my memory each time. That was pretty much the whole selling point of the last game that it happened."
"A sky-falling pro… Wow…! But, um, Noire is… uh…" She would have pushed more, but since Noire hasn't said anything yet, she must be okay with this girl sitting on her like that.
"Oops! Sorry to freak you out. I'm Neptune. Nice to meet you!" As the main character, it is always her duty to introduce herself to her future party members, unless they do it first.
"Huh? Oh, introductions… I'm Plutia. It's nice to meet you."
"Cool! That name totally sounds like the noise a whoopee cushion makes. Hehe…" This girl seems really fun.
"Whoopee cushion…?"
"Uh, never mind. Plutia, huh? Egh, that's way too long, so can I call you Plutie?"
"Ooh, cool. In that case, let me give you a nickname, too. Um, hmm… I'll call you Neppy!"
Neptune raised her head at this. People always come up with best nicknames for me. It just comes with the territory of being me. "Nice one, Plutie! By the by, where are we? I dunno if I've ever been here before."
"Here? This is Planeptune. It was chartered just a little while ago."
"Planeptune? Nuh-uh. I know Planeptune like the back of my knees! And tat stuff about it being new or whatever is wrong!"
"Nooo, I'm telling you the truth. I would never tell a lie…"
"Oh, uh-huh, sure. This isn't some hidden camera show thing, is it?" Neptune shook her head. Thinking you could pull a fast one on me. How ridiculous. I'm too smart for that. "Still, shame shame, we know your name! Don't try to fool me. No way you can trick Planeptune's CPU!"
"Whooooa! A CPU, huh? I didn't know that you're Planeptune's CPU, too."
"Hehehe. Why should I hide it? Oh, wait, 'too'? What's that supposed to mean?" No way she can be a CPU. Nep Jr. is the only candidate in Planeptune.
"Hehehe. I'm Planeptune's CPU, too. We're like CPU twins or something!"
"Really!? Wow, this is news to me! Who would've guessed that I'd land by another Planeptune CPU!? But isn't that kinda weird? I'm already the CPU, but… You're another CPU…" Does this mean that there be more CPUs. Maybe Noire will finally be able to make a friend.
"How long are you going to chat while sitting on me?" An annoyed voice came from beneath Neptune and tried to knock off of her back. How rude is it to land on someone and deliberately stay there. Honestly, this girl has absolutely no manners.
"Holy drumsticks! Someone's started to grow out of the earth! Are the mole people making their move!?" What kind of world did I land on?
"Oh, really? Noire, I didn't know you were a mole person…"
"Like I'd be one of those ugly things! Did you forget that I exist or something!?"
"Oopsies, I'm sooooo sorry. I was having so much fun chatting with Neppy and I forgot…"
"As for you!" Noire turned and face the girl who was sitting on her for several minutes. Her favorite clothes might be ruined because of her. "Falling out of the sky, really!? You couldn't have landed literally anywhere else!?"
"Sorry-dorry, lady. But it's not like I fell because I wanted to! I tried to stop falling, but I couldn't, and this weird thing was forcing me to the ground…" Neptune took in whom it was she was talking and came to a realization. "Oh, wait. It is just Noire. I guess it's a waste to apologize to you."
Noire demeanor changed from one of annoyance to suspicion. "Wait, how do you know my name?"
"Poo! As usual, Noire is a snooty patooty. We're buds, so why are you mad?"
Noire's anger increased at Neptune's dismissal of her. That is beyond rude. "Don't continue to talk without answering me!"
"Noire, you're friends with Neppy?"
"I don't know this weirdo! Jeez, you're pretty friendly or having just met someone, you know."
"Just met!? What're you… Huh? Oh! Maybe you're in hyper-pissy mode right now!" First Histy, now Noire. How am I supposed to relax if both of these two are on my case. Neptune gets moves over to hug Noire until she gets her way, really getting into that thing that Noire calls her personal space. "Oh no! I'm really sorry! I mean, I'm okay, so I'm sure it didn't hurt you that much!"
Noire's face got red as this girl started grabbing her. No matter what she did, she couldn't pry this girl off of her. "Stop groping me! I'm trying to tell you that I have no idea who the hell you are!"
Neptune stopped her antics and looked Noire straight in the eye. "You're reals, huh? You seriously don't know me? Oh! Maybe you bumped your brain. And now you've lost your memory! It happens, y'know."
"No! You're the one with the messed up brain!" Honestly, it's like talking to a three year old.
"I'm sooo jealous. You two are getting along so well."
Noire looked at Plutia like she was stupid. "How could you possibly have come to that conclusion!?"
"I know! Let's visit the hospital. We'll have the men in white check you out and make you all better."
"You'd be better off admitting yourself to the men in white. What is up with you!?" Noire stops herself from ranting to take a breath and turns around and starts walking. "Fine, whatever. We're going home, Plutia."
"Okey-dokey. But what about the stuff you wanted to do?"
Noire stops walking to answer Plutia. "Forget it. It didn't have to get done today. And more importantly…" Noire looks at Neptune.
"Lamesauce! Don't leave me here and forget I exist, Noire! Oh, then again, it's kinda cool you forgot about the busted game disc and the jewel case I lost."
"It's much more important that we get this nutjob to a place she can recover at."
Planeptune's Basilicom, Plutia's room
"That's what I'm saying! Aren't you listening to me!? I'm me! And you know me, Noire!"
"Uh, this is going nowhere. She must've hit her head really, really hard."
"Huh? Do you think she'll…die?" It's not fair that her new CPU friend is going to die so soon after meeting her.
"I'm not going to kick the bottle! If I up and croak, the game or story or whatever would be like, 'You Are Dead' in big bold letters, often times running with blood." She stops her rant and pouts at Noire. "You're so stubborn, Noire! I mean, playing dumb is funny, for you, for like ten minutes, but keeping it up is just cruel."
"I'm not playing anything. I really don't know who you are." There is no way that she could be friends with someone this annoying.
"And there she goes with that nonsense again! Then how come I know everything about you!?"
"You know everything? Whoa!"
"Yeah, right. Fine, let's hear all about me. Come on, don't be shy.'
"Uh, well, if you say so! Hmm, well, if I avoid the more intimate details, you're the CPU of Lastation."
"Oooh, so Noire's a CPU, too."
"No, I'm not. Well, not yet… But Lastation sounds like a pretty cool name…" Despite how crazy this girl is, she did come up with a great name. Maybe she can see into the future and saw my success.
"And your little sister is Uni!"
"I'm learning a lot about you, Noire. I mean, whoa, you even have a little sister…!" Noire is very secretive if I didn't know about her.
"No, I don't. And if I did, I would've introduced you." Forget that seer possibility. She is just plain crazy.
"And thirdly, the clincher!" Neptune paused for dramatic effect. "Noire, you don't have any friends!"
Noire's concentration completely broke down at that statement. How did she know her deepest fear.
"Aww, you don't have any friends. That's sooooooo sad…" Plutia stops pauses as the rare thought passed through her head. "Huh? Wait, does that mean we aren't friends then…?"
"W-Why are you going along with this? We're, y'know, we're…f-friends…" Dammit this girl is getting on her last nerve. Noire's face is getting bright red. From anger or nervousness, she didn't know.
"Oh, really? That's wonderful!" Plutia gets up and hugs Noire tightly, making Noire blush even more.
"Huh? Plutie, this is gonna be some awkward interrogating, but are you really her friend?"
"Yes. Her very first friend." Plutia says this with a smile.
"H-Hey! Don't go spreading such embarrassing things!"
"A friend, huh? Noire's…actually made a friend?" Neptune 'friend' as if it was some alien subject to her. "NOOOO! SHE'S A CLONE! This Noire is totally fake!"
"Wh-What is up with this girl? Outburst aside, your 'clincher' really makes me mad!"
"Huh? Wow… I had no idea you were a clone this whole time, Noire!"
"I'm telling you I'm not! You really need to stop believing every little thing she says!"
"Whoa, what's going on? L-Let's keep it kool with a K, Neptune. Stay koolios…" Neptune started pacing like she is a detective. "So now we've determined the girl before us is a clone, and even has the same mannerisms…"
"Stop talking like I'm some kind of human experiment!" Noire really raised her voice this time and started to lose control of her temper.
"Are you two arguing? Heeeeey, no fighting." She really did not like violence between friends.
"Not like I want to or anything! It's just that since we met this girl, she's so…ugh!"
"Th-that's it!" Another glass bulb shattered against Neptune's head and none of the glass managed to land on the carpet, but out the window. "We gotta blast the skin off this robot clone! Proton cannon, FIRE!"
"You will not let it go, will you!? If you don't stop this clone nonsense, I'll get pissed!"
The room suddenly felt ice cold for both Neptune and Noire and a shiver came up their bones. Neptune saw Plutia's demeanor completely change, and a sense of dread came over her. "The two of you are really going to fight… I don't like fighting… If you don't start playing nice, I might get mad, too."
"Whoa, cold spine alert!" This is one serious chic. It is like seeing Blanc HDD'd after Vert made a comment on her itty-bitty chesty.
Noire, however, was starting to sweat. Flashbacks of her came back to the front of her mind and she did not want to suffer again. "Oh, crap! W-We won't fight, okay? We won't…so…calm down, okay?" No sudden moves, otherwise she is screwed. Noire slowly turned to Neptune. "Hey, you should hurry up and apologize, too!"
"A-Agreed. I am sorry."
Plutia once went back to being happy and the ice cold feeling went away. Both Noire and Neptune let out a breath they didn't know they held. "Oh, okay. Hehehe. That's nice."
"Wh-What was that cold feeling? No, not cold like cute penguins… Cold like murderous penguins…"
"I don't know who you are or what nonsense you spew, but don't upset Plutia if you value your life."
"Oh, really? I don't get it, but that sounds like good advice."
"Yippee. You're playing nice again. Oh yeah, Neppy, you hit your head and now you're confused, isn't that right?"
"Um, no. At least, I don't think so."
"Well, until you feel all better, stay here. I'll take care of you."
"What? No, no. I mean, thanks, but were you listening to the words my mouth was making?"
Noire looked at Plutia skeptically. "You can't be serious. You'll let some weird girl you don't know stay here Are your screws loose?"
"No, they're all tightly secured… We all know that a CPU helps those in need."
Noire lightened up a bit after that. "True, but what if she's an underling for the Seven Sages? That would spell major trouble."
"The Seven Sages? What're they? Do they make them in chocolate?" Neptune could really go for some pudding right about now.
"Don't worry about that! Neppy isn't a bad girl."
"I guess. The odds are really low for them to employ someone this empty-headed." Neptune is going to take some getting used to if she is going to have to put up with her every day.
"Aw c'mon, what're the sage thingies? Hey, listen! Listen! Hey, hey, hey!" Neptune started to sound a lot like Navi.
"Shut your stupid little face. I'm not obligated to tell you anything, so there."
"Boo! Why're you such a meanie? Meanie pastarini!"
"What!? Don't make up stupid food-related insults!" Noire's anger was rising again.
This time Noire and Neptune felt the room slow start to get cold. "…Are you going to start fighting after all…?"
"N-Nope! We had no intention of continuing that line of discussion at all, did we!?"
"N-Nope! We're like the bestest of best buddies. Lookit how we hug and don't cringe and stuff!"
"Ooh, how sweet. Hehehe. I guess I misunderstood." The air went back to normal.
Timeskip, 20 minutes later
After getting yelled at by Noire for wanting to take a break and play some video games, we find Neptune wandering around the park. Normally this is where she gets all the DLC characters, but after going through this so many times, our hero desires a new character to do the work she is too lazy to do. You know who I'm talking about.
"Hmm, I wonder where he could be. I know he should be here somewhere, but for some reason the writer doesn't want me to find him immediately." Neptune looked all over the park but could not find him for the last 15 minutes. After arriving back at the point where she started her search, she gave up search and decided to try and take a nap. "If only there was a convenient plot device that would appear to find who I was looking for."
"Uh, were you looking for me?" Neptune shot up and turned around to see the person she was looking for. Mr. Izawa, head of Idea Factory's advertising, was sitting on a bench eating what looked like an almost finished lunch.
"Mr. Izawa, how could you lead me on like that. I spent forever looking for you and after all my dungeon crawling, you magically turn up behind me?"
"You spent 15 minutes in that tree, and most of that time you spent on your phone playing video games. Plus, you didn't say my name out loud so I assumed you were looking for someone else."
"Details, crème rolls. Will you at least listen to my most humble request in regards to my next sexy gal to joy my most awesomest party."
"Sure, why not. It has been a while since I have had to summon someone new. Who did you have in mind?"
"Hang on a second, I have the details on my phone. It was what I was doing on it for some time up in that tree." Neptune scrolled down on her phone before stopping. "Okay, she has to be really strong. So strong that her full power can't be accessed at the beginning of this game. She grew up alone as an orphan in a village that hated her existence because she reminded them of a demon attack that occurred on the day of her birth. She starts off as a noob with a lot of unused power that could have been a lot greater if she was actually taught. She has incredible charisma that is able to turn her worst enemies into her best friends, and never gives up on her word because that is her kunoichi way." Neptune looked up from her phone screen to see Mr. Izawa giving her a deadpan look.
"You literally just described to me the main character of Naruto."
"We'll I was trying to be subtle about it, but you just had to blurt that out to the viewers."
Mr. Izawa, realizing how pointless it is to try and argue with Neptune, just decides to go along with it and watch the semi-train wreck that is going to happen.
"Fine." Mr. Izawa concentrates hard, focusing on bringing her to this video game/fanfiction. "I CHOOSE YOU."
A big cloud a smoke appeared between the two, along with the sound of snoring. After the smoke cleared, a blonde haired woman whose chest size was in between Vert and Peachy was napping on the ground, with a very small black tank top that barely went past the her belly button and toad boxers. On her head was a toad nightcap that did nothing to hold the large amount of hair that lay under her. Somehow, she managed to drool so much already that a solid puddle was next to her. "No Anko-chan, don't use that toy yet. Save it for later. You will get much more joy out of it then." Upon hearing this, Mr. Izawa quickly packs ups his things and gets as far away from this as he could.
"Wow, not even here for five seconds and she is already asleep. She is a girl after my own heart." Neptune completely ignored Naruko's comment earlier, but felt that someone that she is close to will be extremely happy once she sees Naruko. Neptune then proceeded to try everything to wake this girl up that did not involve monsters, including groping her, but nothing seemed to wake her up. "Wow, this is like that one time Vert was up for 127 hours playing a match in Four Goddesses Online and couldn't wake up for a good 12 hours afterwards. Chika was not happy with what we did to try and get her up." We was really Neptune as everyone else who was there that day was calling her stupid to try and wake-up Vert when they knew that she would not be conscious for a while. If it weren't for the fact that it was Vert's room, she probably would have blown it up just to get Neptune out. Enough about Vert for now. She had to think of a way to wake up this sleeping girl.
"Hmm, if this girl is a gender bent Naruto Uzumaki, then the only thing that could wake her up must be the r-word." Searching her inventory for any plot related items given to her for starting this event, she finds the magical r-word. "Gee, I have this bowl of Ichiraku Ramen all to myself. Guess no one else is going to get breakfast." Neptune turned to the sleeping Naruko only to find her not there and the sound of slurping going on behind her.
"Ah, now that is the way to wake up in the morning after partying with the other Kunoichi. Anko sure knows how to throw a party." After finishing her bowl in a slow 10 seconds, Naruko looks around to see three things. 1) She is not in her room. 2) This looked nothing like anywhere in Konoha. 3) It was not a naked Hinata serving her the ramen. Say whatever you want about her when she was younger (wallflower/stalker), but she really was the best girlfriend ever. It is always the quiet ones, if you know what I mean. Of course Naruko didn't know what that meant until about 5 seconds before things got awesome. "Hmm, did summon one reverse summon me. That hasn't happened in a while. Oh well, might as well go with it." Biting her thumb, she quickly swipes it across her right arm and a poof of smoke appeared over her body. Once it was cleared, she was dressed in a fishnet top that completely covered her breasts and prevents any nipple from being seen. For pants, she wore dark black shorts with dark orange pockets. Her hair was put into two pigtails that went down to her mid back with black ribbons that if you looked close enough had seals on them. To complete her ensemble, she wore her dark red sage cloak given to her for completing her sage training at Mt. Myoboku.
"So, what is the name of the person who summoned me?"
"Well, my name is Neptune. I am the main character of main characters and I humbly request your ninjer abilities to help in our awesome quest. You get to fight all kinds of monsters and other people that would make you laugh."
"Huh, this all sounds like a video game." The Elemental Nations were not as far behind as people think. The only reason they didn't showcase it was because the people were too busy killing each other to really relax like that.
"Exactly. So will you help us."
"Sure. After kicking Granny Kaguya's ass and resealing her, I've gotten bored."
"Coolio." Neptune fist pumped at the thought of having another ninjer in her party. "Oh, by the way, you should probably check to she what powers you still have because Mr. Izawa said that they would be sealed until later in the game."
"K." Naruko closed her eyes and focused on the natural energy around her. Although it felt really weird, she still was able to enter sage mode, or at she thought so. "Neptune, are my eyes toad like with red makeup under my eyes." A quick nod confirmed her status. Next, she tried entering KCM (Kyuubi Chakra Mode). Immediately, she felt a major block on her powers that prevented her from even accessing her stored power. When she tried to enter her mindscape, she was quickly pushed out. "Well, absolutely no power from my tenants, so we are going to have to work with just my base abilities and sage mode. I doubt that my give from Old Man Sage would work if I can't contact Kurama-chan or Matatabi-chan." (That's right, 2, 5, 7, and 9 are all females. Once her powers are unblock, which I'm sure some of you can guys how I'm going to do that, we will be hearing from them. Maybe even them possessing one of Naruko's clones.
"That's okay. It is only Chapter 1, so we really won't have any big enemies until later. Anyway, let's go to the guild so we can get lonely Noire off my case. She really wants us to do some work, even though like yesterday I had to work all day."
Naruko joined the party.
So this was an original idea I thought of that I'm extremely surprised no one thought of before. I understand it is a little late for this to come out, but honestly I only started playing this series in January and just complete sucked into it. I know that a lot of this was taking from the game, mostly the dialogue, but I promise this will not just be a complete rip-off from the game. I definitely won't be taking every single dialogue sequence, and will summarize the ones I think are unimportant or just want to skip over to move the story along, I will be using Victory.
This please give me any feedback because this and another story I have coming out will be my main focus with the Reading being second priority but will still be worked on. I know the style is weird, but it is very different from writing something like Naruto or Bleach. You don't see how the characters really move in the video games since it is done like a visual novel. Although there is the anime, I really don't plan on incorporating any of it into the story.
If someone did actually have this idea written on some other site before me, I am truly sorry but I swear that I never read your work. Also, do the writers truly need to put a disclaimer each chapter. I mean, everyone knows that the writers don't own the brands, so why do we need to remind everyone of this. This is a real question because it is not in the rules and guidelines, something I know a lot of authors have not read since there are so many fics with horrendous grammar.
