Hey everyone. Thanks for reading my first ever fanfic. I'm a bt anxious about how it turned out, so feel free to give your honest opinion.
Before we get into the story, I'd like to clear a few things up.
First, I assume everyone here has already played the series. Anything seen in-game won't get any big description (in upcoming chapters). For example: I won't go in-depth about how a character looks or how certain area's appear. Anything original like OC's or area's I added for the sake of the story will get a description.
Second, if a handful of you guys do like where the story is going and do enjoy the way I write things, I'll make sure to release the following chapters within a short time.
Without further ado, let's get right into the prologue.
-Prologue
Lastation
POV: 3rd person
It was a cold night in Lastation. Most people wouldn't want to spend their night outside. The streets were deserted, with the exception of a single black-haired girl.
It's been a month since she and the other CPU's defeated Rei Ryghts.
When everything was slowly growing calm again, she realised something was off. Someone did not return from the ultra dimension with the CPU's of Planeptune.
She had asked Neptune and Nepgear several times on what really happened in all those years, but the both of them always told her they had no idea and that it would be for the best if she didn't know. Of course, they didn't say it like that, but it was very well implied.
Until recently, she had given up on figuring out the truth. It was then that she received an E-mail, asking to meet her on the roof of an old, abandoned arms store.
Upon arriving, she entered the store hesitantly. The building was taller than the other buildings around it. Most of its windows were broken or panned up with wooden boards. Inside were broken display cases. Most of them were empty, while others still had old, worthless models in them. There also was a single sleeping bag resting to the side of the wall.
Moving further into the store, towards the stairs to the roof, she was starting to have second thoughts.
She knew the truth wouldn't be pretty. Yet, Neptune and Nepgear refused to tell her what had really happened. Would it be better to turn around now and pretend she never got the E-mail?
Clenching her fist, she walked up the stairs and opened the door to the roof. It was now or never.
Upon opening the door, the black-haired girl could see a slightly well maintained roof. In the middle there was a long wooden table, with several strange things on them. A gun, a journal, a strange device that glowed purple, a silver brooch in the shape of a dove, an old group picture of everyone before fighting the deity of sin and a familiar backpack. On the left there were three chimneys lined up with a figure leaning against the middle one, looking over the lit up city. The figure was wearing a scarf and a black raincoat with jeans.
"It's you, isn't it?" the black-haired girl asked while walking towards the figure.
The figure turned towards her, revealing some of its pure white hair…
"I don't remember the white hair though." The black haired girl thought to herself.
"Why don't we take a seat?" the figure suggested. "It's been far too long and I presume you want to know everything that happened."
"Sure… But it's not like I need to rest after walking such a petty distance" the black-haired girl pouted.
The figure let out a chuckle. "You are her Sister after all" the figure mumbled under its breath.
The both took a seat at the table facing each other. The figure shoved the device and the old styled gun out of the way.
"Where should I start?" the figure asked while opening the blue journal, scanning the pages.
"How about starting from the beginning. The very beginning. Even when we were traveling with each other, the both of you were pretty sceptical about your origins and why you hated each other."
The figure rose an eyebrow. "You don't want to know what happened in the other dimension?"
The black-haired girl leaned forward. "I do, but clearly something big happened. And I feel like it has something do to with before you came here."
"I see. I suppose that makes sense. The two of us really were being too mysterious about the whole situation, I guess. Alright. Try to sit as comfortable as possible, because this is going to take a while"
"Hold on a sec." The black-haired girl interrupted.
"Eh? What is it?" the figure asked.
"two side questions. First, why didn't you just come to the bassilicom?"
"Because I didn't want Noire or Kei to know about our meeting. They'd probably somehow leak it to Planeptune. I'll get to that later." The figure explained.
"Alright. Second, Noire and Kei are both currently out for the night and they won't be back any time soon. Why are we still on a cold, messy rooftop of an abandoned building?"
"Oh… that's because… erm…" The figure started to rub its temple with its finger while trying to come up with an answer. 'Because… we both… uhm...'
"Never mind." Uni sighed. "Pack your stuff. We're moving to the bassilicom."
The figure gave a nod while letting out a 'hmpf' and started to gather the things on the table.
"So anyway, about how we got here and what our relation was… I'll tell you along the way. But it all started with a small, purple, glowing rock." The figure began.
Hyperdimension Neptunia: Fame and Glory
And with that I conclude the brief introduction chapter. Once again, thanks for reading all the way through and any review is appreciated. If you think it sucks, I won't blame you. You think it's the best thing since sliced bread, I'll be sure to upload the rest.
