This is about a Newman named Richter. This happens after the end of Phantasy Star Zero. Based on the "Ana's Request" quest.

Richter/Reve

Because Reve needs love, too. D;

It was a year after Mother Trinity's death, and all was going smoothly. The Newmans began to visit Earth, the Humans visiting the Moon, everyone was starting to get along, though there was still some prejudice. Being a Hunter, Richter was finally sent back to the Moon. There were still rogue guard robots on the loose, and not just anyone can take out guard robots. Trinity built them to their best.

Upon arrival, all seemed well. Humans and Newmans were getting along up here on the Moon as well. It was nice to see that everyone was at peace. Many Newman greeted Richter annd welcomed him back with open arms.

Seeing Ana, Richter ran over to here the news. Reve was also there, his usual self. "Richter! Just who I wanted to see. As you've heard, some of the Guard Robots have gone crazy. I mean, we really don't need them anyway, but some are disturbing the peace and need to be shut down. I want you and Reve to sweep Arca Plant clear of Guard Robots."

"You didn't say Richter was coming!" remarked Reve.

Ana smiled her usual smile. "Well, it wouldn't kill you to do some teamwork you know."

Reve fumed. He hated being around others. "He has plenty that needs doing on Earth, why bring him up here when I am completely capable of handling this myself?"

Richter shyed back a bit as the two squabbled back and forth to each other. The argument ended in Reve's defeat. Ana smiled. "Now hop to it, boys!"

"Hurry it up, before I leave you behind." Reve said as he quietly walked off to Arca Plant, Richter in tow.

The plant seemed quiet, until they heard a crashing sound up ahead. They ran ahead to investigate. It was a rogue Finjer B and a few Korse. Orders were orders, so Reve took on the Finjer with ease, as did Richter with the Korse. Finished, they headed deeper. Reve fidgeted a bit, not even realizing it. "I trust you avoided injury?" Richter nodded. There were no robots in sight. "Although I feel no immediate need for rest, losinf efficiency over it would be foolish. Thus, I say we rest a while." They sat down. "However, be aware that taking a rest is quite a waste of time. Handled efficiently, work will end without the need for rest. If one takes pause from work at hand over trivial justifications, one invariably grows idle. Being idle adds to fatigue, and that makes rest inevitable." He was just ranting on. "Speed is power. Efficiency rules above all."

Richter blinked a few times. "Um, why are you in such a hurry?"

"You ask why I hurry so? There is no particular reason. I am merely beholden to efficiency." He noticed himself fidgeting. "I uh, I'm not fidgeting."

Curious, Richter asked. "Are you that busy?"

Reve shook his head. "No, I'm not hurrying because there are other pressing matters on my schedule." Looking Richter over, he sighed. "Fine, it won't do any harm to tell you. It isn't so much that I feel cramped from being with others, but at times, there is awkward unease. When talking to others, I don't know what to talk about. That also seems to afflict the others. Everone seems to believe they are cleverly masking themselves, but their wariness towards me is evident."

A few robots showed up to interrupt them. Finjers R, G, and B. Wasn't hard to put them in their place. "That was superfluous. Let us continue." And that they did. They walked deeper into the plant. An Akorse came up, with two Korse on each side. "Take the middle one!" Reve ordered. As the Akorse fell, the rest went crazy and flew off in random directions, exploding against the wall.

Deeper in they reached the Neutrino Furnace. This seemed to be where all the robots were. They were confronted by a few Korse and a Izrahak. The missles were deadly, so they had to act carefully. Being sure to avoid them, they teamed the Izrahak and it fell fast. The Korse were easy as well. Once again, the room was empty.

"Even though you are a sufficient partner, Richter, I do find this work to be an onerous task." Reve commented.

Richter was curious. "You don't like talking?"

"No, it isn't like that. When I was with the security force, I often conversed with its members. Is it like I said earlier, I don't know what to talk about?" He seemed to be asking himself. "No, because I can always keep quiet. Silence isn't painful for me. So then why?"

Not sure this was the answer he was looking for, Richter replied. "You fear being disliked."

"How rediculous! Why should I fear such a thing? That's why I hate talking. The conversations always go in directions I'd never dreamed of."

Richter knew it was true to some extent. Reve was a quiet person, except for when he is arguing with others such as Ana. After all, he agreed to serve her, but hadn't agreed to be happy about it. Reve snapped his fingers in Richter's face to gain his attention. "You're staring off into nothing. Something weighing on you?" That said, they seemed to have tripped some alarm. "Blast! We got careless."

This was a familiar robot, and one Richter hated fighting. It was Chaos and Mobius combined to for Humilias, a giant robot about 3 times their size.

Reve was surprised and very curious. "Now who the hell could be piloting that?" Yes, it had to have a pilot. During the last fight Richter has against Humilias, Reve was the pilot, but that wasn't the case now. But their curiosity had to wait, because it shot lasers at them without warning. Both managed to evade the attack, as another laser was shot. It moved fast, and went for another shot. The shots were useless, as both had good evasive skills.

Richter was caught off-guard by Humilias, and the giant robot kicked Richter across the floor. It then split into Chaos and Mobius, both hovering around the room. The static they emitted was painful as they flew by, transforming back into a giant robot.

Reve ran to make sure Richter was all right, but as he got up, they were shot by the laser that made their actions slow and sluggish. Humilias put its hands together to activate a large blade. As it came in for the hit, they caught a glimpse of the pilot. Reve's eyes widened. He didn't think he could fight this, but seeing Richter in the shape he was in changed his mind.

The hit was hard, and both were left with huge cuts. One across Reve's chest, and one on Richter's side. The fight carried on, and they were stuck avoiding the volley of lasers being targeted at them. There was a wall nearby and they hid behind it.

"Richter, when it shoots, jump onto its right side and climb it. There's less armor near the cockpit. We can destroy it like this." Richter nodded, and they scattered, avoiding more of these lasers. Ready to put the plan into action, they grabbed hold of the feet, and climbed their way up. They weren't visible where they were, and the robot turned each way, looking for them. Once on the shoulder, they looked each other in the eyes, nodded, and thrust their weapons at the weak part of the machine. "Get away!" Reve yelled, as they jumped off and moved away. The machine began to malfunction, and most of it exploded. When it hit the floor, Reve ran to the remains and saw the body. "Mark..."

"You...knew him?" Richter asked.

They sat down and Reve shook his head. "Hah, he was one of us elites. I guess his allegiance to Mother was greater than anything. It drove him to avenge her. I'm guessing he was planning on leaving the Furnace and attacking the Newmans You see, Mother was our only family. It was her that created us. She was our only family. Even now, I still can't help but feel a little alone, now that she's gone.

Richter couldn't help but sympathize. He leaned closer, and put his arm around Reve. "Even though she's gone, she doesn't have to be your only family you know. Family doesn't have to be biological. I wouldn't mind having you as part of my family. Hell, I don't even have a family. All I really have is the guild. Kai, Grey, Sarisa, Ogi...They're always there for me. That is what a family is, and I wouldn't mind having you as part of it."

Reve was surprised. He'd never thought of family like that. It sounded like something from a dream. "Richter...I..." Before he could say another word, Richter leaned in and kissed him. Reve didn't stop him.

The only thing that stopped the precious moment was the voice of Ana. "Having a bit of quality time, boys?" She smirked.

They pulled away immediately. Richter and Reve were at a loss of words. "Ana?" They both questioned.

"You look surprised to see me. It looks like you've eradicated all the robots that were giving us trouble. Wait...Is that a body?" Ana ran over to them.

Reve sighed. "Yes, that is a body."

"I didn't know somebody was controlling it. That makes sense though, the sudden change in the machines, how they all just now started to act up. You did a great job. You can go now."

As they walked out, they stopped. Reve held Richters hand. "So...You mind showing me this family of yours?" Richter smiled and nodded.

Reviews anyone? I have an idea for a chapter about Reve being on Earth and getting to see the difference between the moon, and earth, but only if you guys think its good. :x
