My deepest apologies for the first time this was submitted. I was sick, and half awake, and I should not have submitted it. Hopefully you'll find this revised version a good improvement
"It sure is silent hill right now," a purple-haired girl said, nudging the other purple girl that was sleeping at her side. This one having red eyes and longer hair
"Neppy...your screams are making me crazy..." emitted from the longer haired girl's mouth, but her eyes remained shut tight.
"Wakey wakey!" She, Neptune, shoved the sleeping girl even more roughly.
"He hee...Noire, your screams are even tastier~" this dialogue was much more sensual than the other dialogue.
"ATTENNNNTION!" Neptune yelled with all her strength.
"Hmhmhm...screaming won't bring anyone to save you, now bend overrr~" Plutia, the longer haired purple goddess, almost purred as she spoke this.
"This is your captain speaking," Neptune took a deep breath, ABANDON SHIP!" She yelled as loud as she could straight into Plutia's ear.
"Looks like you wet yourself, guess I'll have to give you some extraaa...punishment now, hehehe " Plutia giggled, still refusing to come to the land of the waking.
"How do I stop this TMI bot!?" Neptune was at her wit's end, "and here I thought napping with Plutie would be the most awesomest awesome ever...why didn't she do anything like this when I was in the other world, or in the last couple of months?" Neptune stared in awe, then shook her head, materializing her sword, "there'll be no dialogue branching here-" she raised the sword and was about to lower it on Plutia with one fell swoop, but
"It's time to wake up already, stop being so lazy already!" Came a familiar, stern voice.
"Nepu!?" Neptune's eyes darted around the room, but saw no one.
"Uwaaah..." came another familiar voice, "g'morniiing~" Plutia said, stretching.
"Didn't you hear Noire's scolding tune just now?" Neptune questioned, her head still darting around.
Plutia blinked in response, and stared at Neptune for a while, "oh~" she replied.
"What was it bestest napping buddy?" Neptune leaned in close to the sleepy girl, "is lonely heart herself hiding nearby, ready to pounce on me, like a cliche serious girl?"
"It's a recording~" she answered simply, then began the ritual of getting up...
"And that is when I made sure that I would never want another night like that, so I worked to the skull and crossbones, and now I'm here to pick you up dearest sister of mine," Neptune explained to her, understandably, very irate younger sister.
"What brought you here? How did you get here without Histoire's help?" Said younger sister questioned the trio that were also there, not even looking in the direction of her "older sister".
To note, there was a very frustrated anxious looking black-haired twin tail girl in the room, of to the side. When she heard the relayed dialogue of Plutia, her face would experience some shades of red.
But anyway, back to the trio. There were three girls: one had flowing black voluminous twin-tails held up by purple scrunchies. The other two were a pair of twins with brown hair of differing length, complimented by a baby pink, and a baby blue outfit respectively.
"I'll tell you later, let's just go home right now Nepgear," Uni held out her hand.
"Yeah...Let's go home...miss Nepgear!" Rom implored, also holding out her hand.
"Rom would be lonely without you there, and I wouldn't like it either!" Ram held out her hand as well.
The three smiled warmly at Nepgear. Nepgear hesitated.
"Woahwoahwoah!" Neptune remarked, "there's no way, no how, that I'm letting my kid sister not go home with the main character!" She got in between the old circle of friends.
With this remark, Nepgear pushed aside Neptune, and took hold of the offered hands, returning their smiles, "a main character wouldn't leave her so-called 'sister' stranded for 90 years and only have the bare minimum shares to show for it," turning towards Neptune one last time, before the four disappeared in a flash of light.
With another flash of light, Plutia appeared. "Time to go home Neppy..." she said with a yawn, motioning towards the portal that had opened.
"Plutia!" Noire, who had been off to the side, ran up toward the sleepy goddess, but tripped in a rare moment of appaerent clumsiness from the former idol, causing them to both tumble and-
"Mmph-!"Noire found her lips locked with Plutia's own, perhaps due to being left there alone for so long, she seemed to give up and just accepted the strange coincidence. Or maybe she actually planned this? Regardless, there was a flash of white; Plutia and Noire now nowhere to be found.
"Uh oh...this might be a real game breaking glitch," Neptune said, slightly worried. She hurried over to the ultra dimension's oracle. "Can you make contact with Histy, like right now!?" She questioned the floating Hand sized fairy, upon finding her.
"Normally, it would require three days, but I seem to have connection right now (ﾟロﾟ) !" The bite-sized Histy explained, surprised herself.
"Hurry and get to it! The world's fans are demanding it!" Neptune ordered.
"Neptune?" The image of normal Histoire appeared.
"Histy!" Neptune air hugged the larger Histiore.
"I am glad to see you are okay," Histiore said with a smile, "unfortunately, there is not enough energy to bring you home right now, so you'll have to wait till the others can gather enough energy, or find another way to retur-" The broadcast then shut off.
"Regretfully that was the limit of my capabilities with the current level of shares (￣︿￣)," mini Histy explained with a sigh, "when both you and Plutia left, even with Nepgear's diligent efforts, the nation fell completely apart (〃＞＿＜;〃)."
Back with Nepgear and the others...
"Gear!" A young woman in a blue coat with a black outfit underneath called out as she ran towards Nepgear.
Nepgear's reaction was much less subdued. She looked at IF, shaking, tears falling down, "If...!?" And soon began breaking into a full on run towards IF, once meeting her, immediately enveloping the guild member in a crushing hug, "you're so young!" Nepgear cried out, running her hands all over If's body and face.
IF was confused, "of course I still am, it's only been three mo..." she stopped, "it's been over 90 years for you hasn't it?"
Uni and the rest of the Candidates looked confused, but then they remembered something very important that was learned: a day in their world was a year in the other world. This left them in shock, struggling to process what Nepgear had gone through. Each one going through a different struggle.
What if she hates me for taking so long!? What if she doesn't remember me!? What if….what if…maybe I shouldn't. I know Chika finally convinced me, but this completely changes everything… Were just a few of the thoughts racing through the candidate of Lastation's mind.
"Oh IF, watching you and Compa die, and watching so many of my friends disappear..." Nepgear swallowed a sob, "it's been so, so very hard...!" But then freely let tears rain on If's blue coat.
It was at this moment that If was at a real loss what to do, and she looked towards her closest friend who had just caught up with the scene.
The orange-haired nurse, Compa, nodded. Moving in, and taking the purple candidate into her arms, "it's okay Ge-Ge..." she said while gently stroking Nepgear's hair, holding the shaking girl to her bosom.
Uni longed to be the one doing this, but was currently having a battle within herself. Including I couldn't offer pillows like that, though, would Nepgear even want to be inbetween these?
Rom made the first move, quickly hugging the sobbing Nepgear, "It's okay...we won't ever leave you alone..." she said, doing her best to comfort the deeply distraught girl.
"Screw it!" Ram was next, also embracing Nepgear, "me and Rom will always be ready to play with you!" She said with a smile.
Uni seemed notably perturbed at the flow of events. Why am I the only one not over there!? What are you thinking Uni!? She sat there for a second, staring and thinking. I'll just do it! This is how I can be there for her! Then slapped her cheeks, "now or never," she muttered below her breath, and walked straight up to Nepgear, who now seemed to have calmed down considerably, "Nepgear!"
She sniffled, purple looking straight into red, "Uni?" She questioned, breaking the hugs of her friends.
"I don't really know what it was like for you, but I-" she paused. Her eyes look so sad...maybe this really is a bad idea
"Uni?" Nepgear questioned, staring deeper into the candidate's eyes, her trademark innocent smile on display.
"I..." she paused again, Don't do that Nepgear! It's not fair! "I wasn't able to spend any time at all with you for a little over three months, a-and-" she paused again, that's right, there are others here. This would probably be really embarrassing for he-
"Just spit it out already and be done with it, like everyone else," If said with a friendly smile, inviting the tsundere to join in on the heartwarming moment everyone had enveloped Nepgear with.
"Agh! Fine!" Uni took one last deep breath. Please don't hate me for this Nepgear….
"What is it U-mmph?!" Nepgear's words were suddenly cut off as Uni's lips had met her own. It was an awkward meeting, but it was a meeting filled with emotion. A short clumsy, wonderful burst of feelings.
Uni pulled back, "I'm so-s-so-sorry! That I took so long!" She bowed her red flushed head, along with her shoulders, "but I'll never go away. and I'll never abandon you. A-And," she paused again,"I-If you'll have me, I'll be by your side f-f-forever!" Uni was discovering new shades of red.
Meanwhile, back with Plutia...
"Mmm.." Plutia broke the kiss after some time had passed, "that wasn't very fair Noire~"
"You left me alone for almost a century!" Noire retorted, "it's not fair what you did to me!"
Noire really is acting strange...time for punishment. "You've been a naughty girl~" Plutia said with a menacing smile, advancing on the prideful girl. A flash of light enveloping her, and then revealing a much more busty and mature looking Plutia, complete with a black and purple plugsuit
Noire began to back away in fear…
This is supposed to be a one shot, but probably expect another chapter to finish out things in the future. I doubt I can leave things as they are. Would be nice if my mind let me though...onwards and forwards!
