Story: Crimson Chemistry
There goes another day... My god. I feel so tired...Mmmm...Sleep...
"Neptune! You haven't cleaned up the mess from earlier, have you?"
And there goes my nep-nap.
[Third Person]
"I'll do it tomorrow Histy...!" Neptune whined as she looked to a nearby sofa that she wanted to sit down on. She eyed it with such a loving look that Histoire was a little bit concerned. She almost looked like she had seen someone she loved but something was going wrong with her eyes, it was like something was hacking into her...Which was odd, a goddess being hacked into? The only ones who could do that were other goddess' surely!? But none would be like that towards Neptune would they?
"Neptune? Are you feeling...Okay?"
Neptune felt her body tremble as her stomach began to growl, causing pain to erupt from within her, was she hungry or just tired?. "That hurts. Stop it please!" She begged her own body but the growling continued. Right up, until Neptune passed out.
"NEPTUNE!" Histoire shouted and went to rescue her but, thankfully, her head did NOT come into contact with the floor. Instead, someone was already there...But not who you would expect.
Histoire looked at the new person and blinked a few times. "Wait a second...Aren't you...?"
"Hmmm?"
Histoire blinked as the lilac looking girl smiled at her. "Hello Histoire~" Came the yawn filled reply. "Nep isn't feeling well...Is she?"
Histoire tried to think but even her thoughts were being juddered around. "I ugh...My head..." She rose her hands to her head. "It feels like it's splitting in two!"
After a few more minutes, the vibrating sensation calmed down just long enough for Histoire to send out a message to the other CPU's oracles to inform them of what was going on. And to prepare themselves...
Because if they really were being hacked.
Someone, somewhere, regardless of what or why they wanted them...
Was declaring war.
[A few hours later]
Neptune had been taken to her room by the lilac coloured girl with Histoire floating by the door. Nepgear had told Histoire via the N-Gear that she was coming back from Uni's earlier then expected so that she could help look after Neptune...Whether Neptune actually needed more looking after - Remained to be seen.
"Neptune...Can you...Hear me? Or, are you still tired~?"
Neptune winced as her head was feeling so light headed, she might have flown away on a cloud of mushroom rainbow raindeers...Well...That's according to Neptune anyway.
"Ugh..." She opened her eyes slightly but then closed them when sunlight hit her in the eye. "Owwww...My head..."
Plutia looked over to Histoire after realising what was going on with Neptune's pain levels. "Histoire, can you shut the door~?" She asked in the sing-song voice that she knew Histoire understood was her, Don't ignore me, voice.
"O-Of course."
'I just hope Neptune is okay soon...' The oracle thought as she slowly brought the door to a close and went to create some drink for the three of them, using her powers. (Hey, an Oracle has to be able to sustain herself somehow, ne? ;P)
After Histoire shut the door and floated away, Plutia began to stroke Neptune's hair. "There there. Must be hard to always be nagged. Ne?"
Neptune felt her headache start to subside as her eyes opened naturally of their own accord. The moment she saw Plutia, she smiled. She was scared, because of what Plutia was normally like in this kind of situation, but...Also happy.
"You don't know the half of it Plutia... So, what's up? How can good ol' Nep help?" Neptune whispered to the lilac haired girl.
"Hmmm..." Plutia put a finger to her lip in thought then went back to stroking Neptune's hair. "I was thinking about something...Mind if I talk to you about...Something?"
Neptune blinked in confusion. "So, you want to talk about what you've been half thinking about?"
Plutia brought her face closer to Neptune's, making Neptune almost tense up, feeling Plutia's breath on her face.
Neptune felt in a different reality altogether as Plutia's face was so close to her. "I've been thinking about you Nep-chan..." Plutia's voice filled Neptune's entire world, almost vibrating the reality she had.
'What's happening to me?' Neptune thought to herself with worry. 'I can't be thinking about Plutia this way...I don't swing...That way...Do I?'
Plutia changed her tactic from stroking Neptune's hair to placing a hand on Neptune's cheek. "Neptune. I wanted to ask you if you wanted to visit my Dimension again...Maybe even a sleepover~?"
Neptune managed to squeak out the next few words. "Why not stay...Here...With me?"
Plutia's eyes widened for a second but then she smiled, making Neptune even more nervous and unsure of what she just said. Plutia lowered her head and slowly her mouth came into contact with Neptune's. The pair of CPU's making such an electrical contact that the entire Basilicom shook with an unknown force.
"I'd love too"
Neptune had her lips slightly parsed with her eyes half closed. She looked like she loved that kiss according to Plutia, so Plutia gave her another one.
[Meanwhile]
Histoire was making drinks when she felt a huge power surge rip through her like a knife through soft butter and she stopped moving. "My god...Not again!"
She had to find out who was doing this. But the power that was being generated from Neptune's room was increasing...Just WHAT was Plutia doing with Neptune in there!?
On second thought, Histoire floated away from the door, better not. She was sure she'd find out soon...
[Inside the room]
Plutia stood across the room from Neptune with the CPU of Hyperdimension Planeptune (Neptune) standing with her eyes wide at Plutia. "My first..."
Plutia half lowered her head. "Are you feeling okay Nep-chann? You weren't feeling well earlier...?"
Neptune nodded. "I'm okay now, thanks Plutia. I think I needed your power for a moment to recharge my batteries!"
Neptune noticed that Plutia started to fidget. "Hmmm? Got something on your mind Plutie?"
Plutia nodded. "Its about what I said, can I still stay over?"
Neptune nodded. "Yes."
"Eh~? Just like that?"
Neptune smiled. "Of course! If you ask, you get! That's my theory! You don't ask, you don't get! If you never ask, you never know!"
Plutia giggled. "Alright"
"Want to help me get the basilicom ready for Nepgear's return from her Summer Mechanical College?"
Plutia almost bounced up and smacked her head on the ceiling. "Yeah!"
Neptune sweatdropped. "Just don't hurt yourself..."
Plutia stopped and then looked at the window, then to Neptune again. "Can I hug you?"
Neptune smiled. "Of course!" She opened her arms out, but then almost immediately wished she hadn't - Plutia hugged her with a massive bear hug that almost toppled her to the floor. Giggling all the way.
To Be Continued.
Let me know what you think! ;)
