(A/N)

Here it is...the rewrite. Thank you everyone for the support for the previous fanfic. I only hope that I can make this more appealing to everyone now. For this, I'm going to be following the Megadimension Neptunia. The only difference...is Sieg. I hope you all enjoy this. Onto the story. And before I forget, I'm going to refer Adult Neptune as Neptune for now until she meets her younger self.

I don't own Hyperdimension Neptunia nor Fate Apocrypha.

(Between Dimensions)

Woo, that dimension was a lot of fun! There were so many that ended up being so similar, that I couldn't tell the difference! Don't you think so Crosite!?" Neptune was what seems to be a void that was filled with parts of machinery.

"Using someone's abilities just because she could use them….I cannot believe that I'm been in this damn book for so many years." Crostie, a small sticker that resides on a book for many years could only think in irritation.

"Crostie!" The young girl yelled to get the stickers attention.

"My name's not Crostie you idiot! How many damn times do I have to tell you that it's Croire! Get it right in the empty void of a brain Neptune!" Croire yelled.

"Ouch, looks like someone's a bit Pisty right now." The girl named Neptune said, while pretending to be hurt.

"Don't even call me that either! I know someone that hates that name along with myself!"

"Don't be so dramatic! Anyway, aren't you having fun with a me? We've been together for years and I think we should consider ourselves as BFFs!"

"HELL NO! There is no way in hell that I'd be best friends with you!" If Croire could move her body, she would be shaking right now.

"Aw, I guess that's a no go then. Hm, I'm getting a bit tired, let's chill out for a bit somewhere." While flying, she began to stretch her arms.

"I'm getting tired as well because of a certain someone sucking out my powers whenever she feels like it!"

"Hm, what's that place? It looks more different than the other dimensions we went through." Neptune ignored her complaint swifty to look at the strange looking portal in front of them. She was used to seeing the dimension portals having some sort of picture for what the dimension looks like, but with the one in front of her, she couldn't see anything but darkness.

'Hm, what's this I'm feeling right now? There's something dangerous in there. As much as I want to record bad history, but what I'm feeling from this place is very bad news. She'll get herself killed if she doesn't back down now!'

"Neptune, don't go in there! That place is-"

"Better to find out ourselves!" Ignoring Croire's warning, Neptune went into the portal.


(...)

What lies past the portal was very much darkness. There was nothing that Neptune could see as she began walking through the endless dark.

"What the hell is wrong with you! I told you to not travel to dimensions that looks dangerous in the slightest!" Neptune didn't respond, she only kept walking forward with not thought into mind.

"Oi, are you listening to me!"

"..."

"Neptune you're starting to freak me the hell out, say something!" Croire tried to get her to talk again, but she wouldn't.

"Damn, okay um, how about those bugs that you've captured in the last dimension? They were cool looking right?" Croire had to listen to the things that Neptune liked to talk about in her spare time. If she kept trying, she would speak again.

"How about that one dimension that we were running away from a giant reptile that had red hair?"

"..."

"What about that time when we met that annoying blue hedgehog?"

"..."

"Are you still creating those Nep Bull drinks?"

"..."

"Dammit say something!" It was until then that Neptune had stopped in her tracks. Their entire vision had been covered with flower petals blowing past them.

"Woah." Croire said in amazement. After the flower petals had moved away from their vision, what remained, was no longer a empty dark void. It was a beautiful grassfield that had many different types of flowers blooming. But that wasn't what got Croire's attention, it was the dragon holding a golden sphere in its grasp, with no signs of letting go.

"This…." Neptune finally spoke again.

"Neptune?" Croire asked to make sure that she was back to normal.

"THIS IS SO COOL!"

"..." It was Croire's turn to not say anything.

"Croire, I know that I don't collect anything else other than bugs, but today, I'm making an exception!" Neptune pulled out her notebook that Croire was being held in.

"...Are you sure about this Neptune? I don't think we should wake it up. I would respect some sleep when I need to."

"Yup! Besides, since it's sleeping, then we don't have to worry about fighting it! In you go dragon!" The notebook that Neptune pulled out started to suck in the dragon. The sphere was all that was left from the dragon as it disappeared into the book.

"Whew, now that that's done, we'll be on our way!" Using Croire's ability to traverse through dimensions, she opened a portal in front of her.

"Neptune, I thought you were tired. Besides, if we go through this, I won't be able to control our coordinates."

"No worries Crostie! All of a sudden, I feel more energetic than usual! Here we go!" With that said, Neptune hopped into the portal.


(Megadimension)

"Wahoo! That was a lot of fun. I wonder what kind of abilities I might have with this dragon. Can grow dragon wings? Breathe out fire? Oh, I don't know, what do you think Crosite?" After jumping in the portal, Neptune found herself in a cave/

"..." There was no response from Croire. Neptune found this annoying as she didn't like to be ignored so easily.

"Crosite! Are you there!? Are you just ignoring me because I ignored you!?" Hearing no response from Croire, Neptune brought out her notebook that was used to seal the dragon from earlier and flipped to the page that Croire was in.

Expect….she wasn't in the book.

"Huh? How did she get out of my Nep-Note?" Scrolling past pages, she found other bugs that she had captured over the years. Some were small, and some were huge. It's an amazing ability to seal a monster inside such a small notebook. It was until she found the page were she had sealed the dragon in that she stopped scrolling past the pages.

"Hm? I thought I sealed the dragon here…" Looking at the page, Neptune was confused as to why the page of the dragon looked more different than the rest of the bugs that she caught. When looking at them, you could easily see what they looked like before getting sealed into the book. However, the dragon's page looked more different.

It was a seal that represented a dragon that was carved into the page.

"..." Neptune kept staring at the seal. She completely forgot about Croire that had managed to escape from the Nep-Note and instead insisted on looking at it. Neptune dragged her hand to the page of the Nep-Note and touched the seal.

"OUCH!" In the moment she had touched the seal, she began to feel her right hand start to burn as if something was hot was on top of it.

"Ow, that seriously hurt. What the nep was that anyway?" She said, as the pain diminished.

"Huh? Wait, where did the seal go?" Neptune noticed that the seal was gone from her Nep-Note.

"Gah! It's on my hand now!" Looking at her right hand where she felt the burning, she noticed that the seal that was carved into the book was carved into her hand.

"T-This should be an easy fix, I'll just rub it off. I was never fond of getting tattoos anyway." Luckily for Neptune, she was inside a cave, so there shouldn't be any problems finding some water around.

Finding a puddle on the ground, She dipped her right hand inside the puddle. After that, she began to rub her hand at the bottom of her hoodie. There was something wrong though…

It wasn't coming off of her hand.

"C,mon! Why don't you disappear already!?" Neptune began to rub harder on her hoodie until she felt her own hand burning again. Looking back at it, it still wasn't coming off.

"*sigh* I guess I should use Croire to handle this. She might know something about this. Hey Croire!"

"..." Realization hit her in the noggin.

"Oh yeah, she escaped...I guess I'm going to have to play some cat and mouse then." Neptune began to walk around the cave to find anything that would lead to Croire, but to no avail, she couldn't find her. However, she did see something that caught her eye.

"*Gasp* Is that a SKYFISH!" Yelling, Neptune found a Skyfish that was just hovering over land. Tiptoeing to the creature, Neptune tried her best to be silent in attempt to seal the creature into her Nep-Note.

"Just one more step and then you're-GAAAAAAH!"

But the flooring below her that was trying to hold her weight wasn't having any of it, causing her to fall down deeper into the cave.


(Bottom of the Cave)

"Neptune?" Nepgear asked no one but herself. Uzume and the Arfoire noticed this, thinking that she had gone crazy.

"Gearsy, is something the matter?" Uzume asked her, wondering why she would just call out Neptune's name.

"No, I just heard my sister yelling just now." She said, wanting Uzume to believe her. Before Uzume could say anything, Arfoire, in her Deity of Sin form, began laughing hysterically.

"Ha ha ha ha! Have you both gone insane!? Don't think that I'll be foolish enough to fall for some petty trick like that! Now then, I think it's time for the both of you to die now!" Arfoire said. Nepgear and Uzume were bruised and couldn't fight back. It was surprising enough for them to maintain their CPU form although.

"This is Gearsy..I'm sorry for letting you down." Uzume had gave up all hope as she knew that her life was going to end here.

Until Neptune's voice was heard in everyone's ears.

"Mooooove out the wayyyyyyyyy!" Without any warning, a figure crashed down right beside Nepgear.

"*Cough* *Cough* There's so much smoke!" Nepgear said, as the smoke clouded her vision.

"Aw man, I was totally about to grab that Skyfish! I should've been more careful!" Nepgear heard Neptunes' voice again, and started to feel relief.

"Neptune, you're-" It was until the smoke had cleared that the person who had crashed down beside her, was not the same Neptune that she knew.

"...back?" Nepgear asked as she didn't know who this person was. She looked exactly like Neptune and even sounded like her. But her physical appearance was everything that the Neptune that she knew did not have.

"Oh am I interrupting something? I guess I should go take my leave and go back to that Skyfish. A girl's gotta have her priorities if you guys know what I'm saying." Neptune had tried to crack a joke to break the atmosphere.

"...What?" Everyone but Neptune asked in complete confusion.

"Hm, I know what's going on here! Because I have a diploma on helping cute girls, I'm gonna help the two of you out with this 'ugly' situation! Do ya get it? I said ugly as in I'm referring to the big elephant in the room right now." Neptune said.

"U-Um…." Nepgear didn't know what to say out of this.

"Hey cutie, with the pink hair, what's your name?" Neptune asked Nepgear.

"M-Me?"

"Don't "me" me! Yes you!"

"Um, my name is Nepgear." Nepgear introduced herself to the Neptune look alike, but found this strange as well.

"Cool, we both have "Nep" in our names! It's like we were destined to meet!" Neptune celebrated.

"Hey." Arfoire found everyone ignoring her.

"Umio, what's going on here!? I thought Neptune left already!? And how did she grow up super duper fast!?" Uzume yelled to Umio, who was just as confused as her.

"I'm not sure either. But if she said that she was going to assist us in battle, then her presence is surely appreciated.

"Hey." Arfoire started again, noticing that everyone was ignoring her again.

"Are you two Nepgear's friends!? That thing on your wrist is-" Neptune found herself cut off by the "ugly" elephant in the room.

"Enough of this! All of you are starting to get on my nerves! I will kill you all!" Arfoire yelled irritated.

"Um, we were just having a chat, but okay. We'll just quickly beat you down to the ground!" Neptune pulled out her dual wield swords and got into her fighting stance.

"Thank you for helping us Neptune. No matter where we are, you always find a way to save us." Even if this wasn't the Nep sister that she knew, she would still thank her for her support.

"Huh? Did I ever give you both my-" Before Neptune could ask something to Nepgear and Uzume, she noticed that the marking on her right hand began to let out a green glow.

"Huh? What's going-" Before she could let out her sentence, everyone's vision was covered from the bright light that had covered the area.

After the light had faded, what popped up right beside Neptune, was something that she didn't expect. A young man with brown hair wearing a black waistcoat with a white shirt underneath it had randomly appeared beside her. Opening his ruby red eyes, he began to speak-

"Where….am I?" Looking around, he turned to look at Neptune, who was in awe.

"Did you…summon me?" His tone was bland, but everyone could notice the confusion that he held beyond it.

"What." Everyone beside Sieg said blandly as he tilted his head in confusion.
