GL (GalaxyLight): Hey guys! Back with another story (again). This time it will be about HyperDimension Neptunia. I grew a bit fond of the game as I played and watched it. About references, fourth wall breaking, cameos. So I decided to make a story of my own to see what I can bring up. Although I don't know many characters in the series but I'll do the characters I know. If you know any characters that I should put in, then feel free to tell me in the Review.
For some reason, I imagined the CPUs in a vehicle and I thought it'd be awesome if the company created a racing game in the HyperDimension Neptunia series, although I doubt that'll happen. Still, it'd be cool for them to drive a car and roll with style, especially Neptune (although they look young to drive one). I'll try to get them to obtain their drivers' license somehow. Seeing the characters driving crazily like speed racing would totally make the people and the nations go wild.
I know the CPUs can fly in their HDD form, but there are differences between the skies and roads. The CPUs can control the sky but they can't control the roads, even in their HHD form, which is why they need a machine that can help you master the roads. and defeat your enemies. Cars also faster than the goddesses in a way. And they're are also heavily armoured so it's sort of like a tank really. It's great speed and battle since they're battle cars, race or battle, your opinion of which is suitable. Imagine, a vehicle that can race with the speed of lightning and can also destroy for massive artillery at the same time. The sort of similar to Jak X: Combat Racing and Batman: Arkham Knight because I'll be adding these kind of things in the story later on.
In the story, there will be a certain gang of racers around Gamindustri. They are gangs who thinks they own the roads and are the best racers in the world. Then someone hosts a racing tournament where there will be shares as a prize for winning constant races due to some agreements with the nations. And the gang are planning to steal those shares for themselves for power and speed. It's up to the Goddesses need to stop them from collecting them by entering the tournament themselves. The problem was that none of the CPUs know how to drive so they have to learn to drive before getting to the insane driving tests. The rest will be in the story.
"Oh yeah! 1st place goes to me!" A certain blue haired tsundere smirked as she reached to the finish line first.
"No dippidy fair!" A pink haired girl pouted as she apparently finished 4th place. "I would have won if you didn't use that OP Peacemaker on me!"
"Well, you were in 1st place before Noire blasted you with that after all." A girl with big busts explained as she finished 2nd place.
"That is one of the reason why they call it 'rubber-banding'." A gloomy girl said as she came 3rd.
Four of the CPUs of Planeptune, Lastation, Leanbox and Lowee were playing a racing game in Planeptune. The game they were playing was Jak X: Combat Racing (I love that game). Neptune was just about to get to the finish line until Noire exploded her car with a Peacemaker. Because of that Vert and Blanc was able to get past her after her character respawned.
"Another race!" Neptune demanded. "And I won't let you pussy lot off so easily this time around! Jak and I will reach 1st place!"
"I will shoot all of you and collect some dark power so I can become unstoppable!" Noire smirked.
"Unless you get hit by a Supernova or Peacemaker." Blanc informed her.
"W-Whatever! Let's just start the next race!"
"They're sure are having fun there. Aren't they?" Nepgear, Neptune's little sister, smiled.
"Yes. But don't you think they're getting too used to those racing games?" A fairy shaped girl, Histoire sweatdropped as she looked at the racing games Neptune and Vert bought; Mario Kart 8, Need For Speed, F-Zero, Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed and many more. "It's like they want to drive a car of their own."
"Too bad they don't have a driver's license." Nepgear sweatdropped as well.
"Though it would be interesting if they can drive a car..."
"Eh?"
"It could help catch the Zpeed Gang..."
"Zpeed Gang?" Nepgear asked confused.
"They're a group of daredevils who drives very fast cars to get what they want. They think they own the roads as they claim that nothing can stop them. They've been stealing money, jewels and other belongings from shops and people. The CPUs tried to catch them, the only problem was their car was faster than their flight and were unable to keep up with them. Plus, they tend to easily escape to a place where they can't find them in the air. If only we had a vehicle with an strong engine that can keep up with them, also equipped a powerful arsenal.
"It would be great if we could built one."
"Oh? You think you can build one?"
"I'm not sure, but I might think of some ideas. Let's call Umi, Rom and Ram over so we can get started."
"Very well." Histoire and Nepgear left to contact the little sisters.
"Yes! I've received my 10th kill! I claim victory!" Vert cried out. The CPUs were having a deathmatch to see who can kill 10 people first.
"Oh, butterfingers! I was so close!" Neptune who got 9 kills, squeaked.
"How come all of you started coming after me?" Noire who got 6 kills, complained.
"Considering the fact you came 1st place 3 times in a row in those circuit races, we thought this would be good for revenge." Blanc who got 7 kills, exclaimed.
"Geez! You guys are all just jealous of my driving skills."
"Hey! You kept blasting us with those 4-timed missiles, it's like dark eco wants you to win." Neptune puffed her cheeks.
"Or maybe you're cheating somehow..." Blanc said as her voice lowered a bit in suspiciousness.
"I-I'm not cheating!" Noire squeaked. "If you really think I'm cheating, then let's do Turbo Dash to see who's really cheating!"
Just as they were about to start the next race. Histoire came popping out of nowhere panicking. "Everyone!" She squealed.
"Whao! Histy! What's up? You sound like you've seen a super scary ghost." Neptune said to her which Histoire ignored.
"Turn on the news, you have to see it!" She cried out.
"She sounds serious." Vert said.
"Let's do what she says." Noire agreed. She grabbed the remote and clicked to the news. What they saw was a female reporter wearing a black fancy suit with a headset in Lastation.
"Have you race fans gotten tired of watching boring shows? Has your 'Speed Things Up' CD been scratched from overuse? Than let's turn that dial into something a little more 'extreme'. THEN GRAB YOUR CAR KEYS AND PARTICIPATE IN THE ACCELERATION COMBAT WORLD GRAND PRIX! Where you will race the biggest courses that can risk your life until the end. The winner will claim the prize of Acceleration Championship Trophy!"
"Did she say trophy?" Neptune cried out as her eyes sparkled with stars. "I am SO gonna sign up in this Grand Prix!"
"Come on, now." Noire groaned. "You're participating just for a trophy?"
"I don't know about you all but I don't see why we have to watch this." Blanc sighed as she looked a Histoire.
"Keep watching!" Histoire told the CPUs. "You're gonna see something that will shock you all!"
"And look! We already have some participants with us." The reporter stated. The camera then turned to some familiar figures in some familiar vehicles.
"It can't be! Are those...?" Vert gasped as she recognises those racers.
"Yes! It's the Zpeed Gang" Histoire finished for her.
"So they're participating too, huh?" Noire gritted her teeth. "Ugh! They've been mocking around in my nation for far too long! Stealing my technology, the scraps, the materials, even my cosplay clothes." Neptune almost laughed when she heard that. "If participating the grand prix is the only way I can get payback to them, then I'm signing up too!"
"I will sign up too!" Blanc agreed. "Those rotten bastards stole almost all of herbs, food and papers in Lowee. We needed those so we can create medicine and eat and write novels. How dare they steal my papers! They are going to hell once I've bombed them into nothing!
"Then I guess that makes four of us!" Vert smiled as she also agrees to participate. "Those no good for nothings kept stealing the new release racing games that I wanted to buy so badly. Every shop I enter and almost all of the games were empty, especially in Leanbox! They must pay for making a fool out of me, Leanbox and my dreams!"
"Wow! Almost all of you sound so serious about the Zpeed Gang and participating this Grand Prix." Histoire said surprised by the CPUs' decisions.
"And that's not all, I'll also provide shares to the winning team of racers who finish at the top 3 places in each race!"
"No way! Really?" Noire gasped as well as the rest of the goddesses.
"They're providing shares... as prizes as well?" Blanc followed.
"Then that just makes it better for us. While we take on the Zpeed Gang, we can also collect some shares to raise our positions as Goddesses." Vert smiled.
"Awesome sauce!" Neptune cried out. "Now I can stop worrying about work once again!"
'That's one less thing to worry about...' Histoire thought to herself.
"You will race through in all 4 nations; Planeptune, Lastation, Lowee and Leanbox. Your host, Blitz will give you a pit row view of all the action as the best racers who will participate swap paint in their quest to win the championship trophy. Provide yourself a team and sign in for the best grand prix in Gamindustri. I'll be waiting in Lastation for anyone who wants to participate. Register now in 3 days before time runs out." That's when the news finally ended.
"Come on, guys! Let's win the whole thing and show those slowpokes what goddesses can do." Neptune exclaimed.
"Against those lunatic racers out there?" Noire complained. "All due respect to you guys (including myself), but none of us don't even know how to drive a car at all." The CPUs (except Noire) froze. She was right. None of them know how to drive a car. Because of the fact they can fly in their HDD form, they don't really rely on vehicles much. They realised that they only overpower the Zpeed Gang in the sky but not in the road. If they're going to win them by their own game, they need to learn how to drive. "I'm not saying that we're hopeless just because we can't drive, you know!"
"Then I guess it's time for all of us to receive drivers' license." Vert smirked as her bust started bouncing.
"Eh? You're all going to drive a car?" The CPUs turned around to find their little sisters who came here; Nepgear, Uni (Noire's little sister) and Ram and Ram (Blanc's little sisters). Nepgear just got the little sisters to Planeptune a few seconds ago.
"Wow! That's great, big sister! You're going to drive?" Uni smiled at her older sister.
"You bet, Uni! I'm going to own the roads in Lastation and destroy the Zpeed Gang for interfering with my nation."
"Driving a car? That sounds like fun!" Rom commented to her older sister.
"Yeah! Lots of fun!" Ram followed.
"But it is also dangerous." Blanc informed her little sisters. "Driving a car involves eyesight, knowledge and quick-reaction. By the time you're ready to earn your drivers license, you must be careful when driving otherwise you might hurt someone. Do you understand?"
"Yes!" The little sisters of Lowee nodded.
"What the goodness!?" Nepgear cried out. "Are you sure you're ready for this, Neptune. I don't think you can drive a car properly."
"Calm down, Nep-Jr. I've been playing a lot of racing games. I'm sure I know the gimmicks to driving a easy vehicle."
"I wouldn't call it easy, Neptune." Histoire spoke up. "In order to drive in the high-speed rank, you must complete the DMV test before taking that rank."
"D-Did you just say 'DMV'?"
"Yup! She's right, Neptune. We need to learn how to carefully take care of our cars before proceeding to the real deal." Noire exclaimed. "Whether you like it or not, you're taking that test with us."
"NOOOOO! I DON'T WANNA GO!" But it was already too late as Neptune was being dragged by Noire who was going to the DMV which is placed in Lastation Blanc and Vert followed them as they both got nothing to say.
"Do you think they'll be alright?" Ram asked worried.
"I'm sure they'll beat the test. I believe in them." Rom answered.
"So what do we do then?" Uni asked.
"Let's follow them." Nepgear answered. "I'm still worried. What do you think, Histy?"
"Well, I don't want the CPUs to fail the DMV tests and be unable to participate the grand prix. I guess I'll go too."
"Great! Then let's run!" Nepgear smiled as she dashed off to find the CPUs.
"H-Hey! Wait for us!" Uni called out as she ran after her, followed by Rom, Ram and Histoire.
GL: That's the prologue. I've generally never seen any characters in HyperDimension Neptunia drive before, so I think it'd be the best the take them to the DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles) before participating. And they don't have much knowledge about cars either, at least that's what I think. Can you blame them...? Nah!
Anyway, thinks will get a little trouble as they take tests about how to drive a car, especially with Neptune, she's never good with tests. Let's hope she knows much about cars or she will fail, literally. What will be the results? You'll see in the next chapter.
