A Crazy Boy and a Beautiful Love

Chapter 8: Just Be Me, Myself, And Iris

-Later; Passe- The group arrived at the warehouse and took a rest. Bradley and Neptune began to play with Yoko.

"Hmm... They're serious on taking care of Yoko," Noire said as she looked at them. Yoko rushed up to Noire and rubbed up against her left leg.

"Hey! Down, you!" Noire told the cub. It whined and went back to Bradley and Neptune.

"Noire, be nice!" Bradley scolded her, "She was only being sweet!"

"Ugh... I'm sorry," Noire sighed, "I need a little time with this."

"Well... How about this? Yoko, wait here," Bradley told the cub as he stood up and walked over to Noire, "Can we talk in private?"

"Yeah..." Noire agreed as she followed him outside. The 2 stopped in a back alley and faced each other.

"Are you okay? You seem a little... Pissed ever since we came back from Thelad Sanctuary," Bradley told her. Noire sighed and looked down.

"It's just... I'm worried about my nation, you know? I mean, you're a CPU. You should understand," Noire told him. Bradley looked at Noire in confusion.

"Noire, what are you talking about?" Bradley asked her as he looked at her, "You mean when I transform into that form?"

"Yes... That's your CPU form. Didn't you figure that out?" Noire asked him.

"No... Wait. Yes, just now. I'm sharing Neptune's power somehow," Bradley told her, "It happened when I got injured several days ago... About 20, maybe? Anyway, she placed her hand on my heart... And, I got this surge of power after that. Next thing I knew, I was in that form and I felt... Stronger. I don't know how to explain it." Noire looked at him in surprise and nodded her head.

"Hmm... That reminds me. If I was able to get that power from Neptune... Could you and Tristan do the same?"

"Hmm... That could be a possibility," Histoire's voice called to Bradley. Bradley looked around and realized it was coming from inside his head.

"Yo, warn me next time when you do that," Bradley thought as he sighed, "Is it really possible?"

"Maybe," Histoire told him, "Or, it was a once in a lifetime experience."

"I don't go on once in a lifetime, Histy... Can it work, yes or no?" Bradley asked.

"Possibly yes," Histoire said.

"Thank you," Bradley thought as he folds his arms.

"Ok... So, I have a theory. What if we keep up our work with Avenir and get really deep into it. We can actually uncover their whole entire operation!" Bradley told Noire as he looked at her.

"That could work... But, what about Tristan? Now that we know an enemy of his is working for Avenir, maybe getting a job from them will be as easy as we thought," Noire sighed as she flips her hair to the side.

"True... Ok, then. How about another theory? I got my CPU form from Neptune... So, how about you try and turn Tristan into a CPU?" Bradley told Noire as he walked up to her.

"We don't even know if this will work or not!" Noire told him.

"It never hurts to try, Nowar," Bradley teased Noire as he poked Noire in the belly.

"Hey!" Noire pouted. Bradley laughed as he shook his head.

"Man, you and Neptune have the same reactions! It's so cute!" Bradley smiled. Noire blushed as she turned away from him.

"Hey... Tristan's lucky, you know. He loves you, Noire... I can see that myself," Bradley told her. Noire turned back to Bradley slowly.

"Y-you think so?" Noire asks Bradley as she blushed heavily.

"I may be nee to this love thing... But, I wasn't born yesterday. I know so," Bradley smiled, "We'd better head back... Neppy's probably fawning over my pudding, again." Bradley began to walk back when Noire said...

"Wait!" Bradley turned back to see Noire have tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Noire? What's..."

"I'm scared... To tell him how I really feel. What should I say?" Noire sniveled as she looked at Bradley.

"Why don't you just tell me, then?" Tristan's voice called to them. Noire and Bradley turned to see Tristan walking towards them.

"Hey... We were just talking about you, big brother," Bradley smiled.

"I heard everything, little brother... Trust me," Tristan smiled, "Look, Noire... I will wait forever for you, you know? All I want you to know is how much I love you." Noire hugged him and slowly kissed him.

(Damn! Pretty quick, I must say! You must've meant what you said in Chapter 4, huh?! Bradley.)

(Bradley, please keep all comments to yourself for the time being! A/N.)

(NO! Bradley.)

(All right, you... NEGA GROVE! A/N.)

(Gwah! Bradley)

(Are you done?! Noire)

(EXCUUUUSE ME! A/N.)

Tristan was taken back by the kiss... But, he kissed her back and held her. Suddenly, he was encased in a white light!

"Bro?!"

"Nazo?!" When the light disappeared, Tristan was dressed in a pitch black suit of armor with a set of black mechanical dragon wings right behind him. His hair was also jet black and his eyes were pure white with a yellow power symbol in the middle of them.

"It worked! I knew it! Tristan, you're a... Well, you know!"

"Did you plan this?!" Tristan yelled as he glared at Bradley and Noire.

"Well... Not exactly. We were talking about something like this happening... And, I thought it would work, right? And, it did!" Bradley explained quickly.

"Whoa, there... Take a deep breath, little brother," Tristan told Bradley. Bradley sighed and looked at Tristan.

"Tristan, this is how I got that CPU form... Well, not exactly the way you got it," Bradley told him.

"Huh... That kinda explains a lot," Tristan told himself, "I mean, the you from my dimension told me you became a CPU when you swallowed a CPU Memory. Here, you share a CPU form with the goddess."

(Hold it! The way this works is that the CPU and the one they fall in love with share a CPU form... Through the Lily Rank. The higher the Lily Rank, the stronger the bond, the more powerful the couple. Get what I'm saying? A/N.)

"Well... How do I change back?" Tristan asked Bradley and Noire.

"The same way you revert back to normal with the Super Sayain form. Just relax," Bradley told Tristan. Tristan did as instructed and returned to normal.

"I always wanted to become a CPU... I even thought of my own name. Jet Heart," Tristan smirked, "Because Black Heart 2 wouldn't cut it."

"It's cool that you have your own name, Tristan... But, keep this to yourself for now. Okay?" Noire told him.

"All right... I'll try," Tristan said.

"Hey, guys... I got an idea," Bradley told them. The both of them looked at Bradley.

"Can you sing, Noire?"

"Uh... Why are you asking me that?"

"If we're going to cheer you up, we're gonna do it in a fun way," Bradley smirked as he walked up to her, "Tristan, can you play any instruments?"

"Is that a trick question?" Tristan smirked as he folds his arms, "I can play anything but a flute."

"Good... Noire, follow me. You have no choice," Bradley told her.

"Ack! Help me!" Noire panicked.

"Sorry, sweetie," Tristan smirked, "He peaked my interest."

-A few minutes later; Inside- Everyone was talking and having a good time. Chian walked up to the group and folds her arms.

"Hey, Chian... You've seen Noire, Tristan, or Bradley anywhere?" IF asked her.

"Oh... That's a little secret between us," Chian smirked as she sat beside IF and faced towards a stage.

"Huh? What do you..." IF asked as the curtains on the stage pulled apart.

"Are we having a show?"

"Wonder what's going on?"

"I'm excited! Who's going to be performing?" Several voices asked at the same time.

"Chian, what's going on?" Neptune asked Chian.

"Oh, boy..." Emily smirked as she shook her head, "This is another Bradley song, isn't it?"

"You're good, kid," Chian smirked.

"What? Another?" IF asked.

"Oh, you'll see," Emily giggled, "He loves music."

"That explains alot," IF sighed. Bradley walked out onto the stage wearing a black flannel shirt with black shorts and black high tops.

"How's everyone doing tonight?!" Bradley called. Everyone replied with positive feedback and cheers.

"Glad to hear it! Now, we have a special treat for you! For all your hard work... Here's a good friend of mine! Please welcome Noire!" Bradley called as he stepped back. Noire walked up to the mic and looked out into the crowd. She was a little nervous... But, besides the nervous jitters... She looks back at Bradley and nods. Noire wore a black jean jacket over a navy blue blouse, a blue skirt with black torn stockings underneath, and black and blue thigh high laced shoes. Noire opened her mouth and began to sing.

"I could feel you coming from a mile away

My pulse stops racing from the words that you say

And, you say so many of them like you don't have a clue

That I'm signed, sealed, and delivered with a stamp on

You don't have to try to hard

You already have my heart

You don't got a thing to prove

I'm already into you

So...

Hold, Hold, Hold, hold me tight now

Cause I'm so, so good to go

Don't say, Don't say good night know

You had me Hello (X3)

Don't say, Don't say good night you know

You had me Hello!

Close your mouth now, baby don't say a word

Cause you ain't saying nothing I already heard

Plus all them words get buried when the beats so loud

And, the speakers blowin' up to this dance song

You don't have to try too hard

You already have my heart

You don't have a thing to prove

I'm already into you

So...

Hold, Hold, Hold, hold me tight now

Cause I'm so, so good to go

Don't say, Don't say good night you know

You had me Hello! (X3)

Don't say, Don't say good night you know

You had me Hello!

Oooooh Ooooh Ooh Ooh (X5)

You don't have to try too hard

You already have my heart

You don't got a thing to prove

I'm already into you

Hold, Hold, Hold, hold me tight now

Cause I'm so, so good to go(Good to go, babe!)

Don't say, Don't say good night you know...(You know!)

You had me Hello! (X3)

Don't say, Don't say good night you know...

YOU HAD ME HELLO!"

"I'm stuck in your head

I'm back from the dead

Got you running scared

I'm fearless

I'm calling you out

I'm taking you down

Don't you come around

I'm fearless

I'm fearless...

Whoaaaaaa...

I got the upper hand now

And you're losing ground

You never had to fight back

Never lost the round

You see the gloves are coming off

Tell me when you've had enough...

Yeah...

Ready for a showdown

And, we're face to face

I think I'll rearrange it

Put you in the place

You don't get the best of me

Check it, you're afraid of me...

I'm stuck in your head

I'm back, back from the dead

Got you running scared

I'm taking you down

Don't you come around

Im fearless...

I'M FEARLESS!

HEY!

I'M FEARLESS!"

(All rights go to their respective owners! Don't sue me! I'm a music lover! A/N.)

Noire sang her absolute her heart out as everyone in the cafeteria cheered her on. When she was done, she looked at the cheering crowd and smiled as she took a few deep breaths.

"Thank you, everyone... That was my first time singing in front of a lot of people," Noire smiled. She looked over at Tristan... Who was holding a guitar in his hands. She nodded at him and walked up to him. She kissed him right there.

(Yo! Again?! Wow! Tristan gets all the love! I'm proud of him! Bradley)

(You got back up, huh? Iris Heart)

(Oh, crap! A/N.)

(Iris?! Why are you here?! Bradley)

(You 2 have been blabbing over the sexy and sweet parts... And, I'm kind of tired of it! Time for your punishment... Iris Heart)

(PLEASE! NOOOOO! A/N.)

(WAAAAGGGGGHHHHHH! Bradley)

Bradley immediately felt a shiver go down his spine as he looked around.

"Remember... That boy is mine soon," a voice called to him.

"Who..." Bradley thought, "Histy... What was that?"

"Um... I have no idea," Histoire said with a shiver, "But... We may have connected with another Hyperdimension just now. And, what came out of it... Has such a terrifying feeling to it that it makes me shudder in fear."

"You and me both," Bradley thought.

(Um... Can I speak? A/N.)

(Yes... You can speak, darling. -Leans in to grope me- Iris Heart)

(Gwah! No! Bad touch! A/N.)

(You were saying? Iris Heart)

(Um... You are gonna be in this story, aren't you? A/N.)

(Why, yes... I will. And, I will do that Bradley as well. Iris Heart)

(H-Hey! This is rated T, woman! Control yourself! Noire)

(Hmm? Oh, Noire... I didn't notice you there. I will give you my special service as well. Iris Heart)

(Uh oh... Noire)

(Uh oh is right! HELP ME! A/N.)

(Aww... What's the matter? Am I too much for you? Iris Heart)

(YES! You are way too much for me! Carrie was my one and only! A/N.)

(Wow... That takes me back. Bradley)

(Stop thinking and GET HER OFF ME! SHE'S GONNA HURT ME IN A VERY BAD WAY! A/N.)

(Wait, Iris! Take me, instead! Jericho)

(Jeri? Oh, darling... I will be with you in a second, ok? Iris Heart)

(Iris, he has to write... Jericho)

(I guess... We will play later, Jimmy. Iris Heart)

(Thanks, bro... I owe ya! A/N.)

Bradley sighed and looked back at Noire and Tristan. Suddenly, something taps on his shoulder. He turned to see a small girl about Neptune's height with waist length sky blue hair tied in a long braid behind her looking up at him.

"Uh... Hi. Who are you?" Bradley asked her as he looked at her.

"Hi, there... We meet at last," she said slowly.

"Uh... Ok. What's your name?" Bradley asked her.

"My name is Plutia... It's very nice to meet you," she smiled.

"Plutia, huh? Well, my name is Bradley," Bradley told her.

"I know, silly... You're my boyfriend," Plutia smiled.

"I'm WHAT?!" Bradley yelled as he looked at her.

"Hubby, are you okay?" Neptune called as she raced up beside him, "Who's this?"

"Neppy!" Plutia called as she hugged Neptune.

"Huh? Do I know you? Wait... Are you a friend of mine? I kinda lost my memory here," Neptune told her.

"Well... It's a little hard to explain," Plutia told them as she lets go of Neptune.

"You're from another Hyperdimension, aren't you?" Bradley asked as he looked at her. Plutia smiled and nodded her head.

"More like... Um, what is it again? Ultia Dimension?" Plutia asked.

"Ultradimension?" Bradley asked.

"Yeah! That's it!" Plutia smiled.

"Huh... And, that right there is another reason why there's proof that many dimensions exist in a single universe," Bradley said.

"Hmm... So, Hubby... She knows us, right?" Neptune asked.

"Yeah... Since you are my best friend... And, he's my fiancee in my dimension," Plutia told her.

"Wait! You said I was your boyfriend!" Bradley told her.

"I can never tell the difference," Plutia told him.

"Hmm... How did you get here?" Bradley asked.

"Histy sent me here... To help you," Plutia told him.

"Sounds about right... So, Plutia... How am I in your dimension?" Bradley asked her.

"Umm... Does brave and loyal count?" Plutia asked.

"Yes," Bradley smiled.

"Also sweet and funny... All in one," Plutia smiled, "It makes me fall in love with you all over again."

"Great... How am I gonna handle two girls at once?! One is enough!" Bradley groaned as he shook his head.

"Hubby, whatever you do... I'm gonna stick by your side," Neptune smiled as she looked up at him.

"Me, too..." Plutia smiled.

"Let's take this one step at a time, ok?" Bradley told them. Plutia and Neptune both nodded and smiled at him.

"Let's go introduce Plutia to the group," Bradley told them.

"Hand," Plutia said.

"Please," Neptune said.

"All right... Come here, you two," Bradley told them as he held both of their hands and took them to the group.

"Hey, little brother... Who's this?" Tristan asked Bradley.

"Everyone, this is Plutia... She'll be joining us on our quest," Bradley told them.

"I feel like I know her from somewhere," Noire said.

"Me, too..." IF said as she folds her arms.

"Me three... Where are you from?" Compa asked.

"Planeptune... I'm the goddess there," Plutia told them, "Well... In another dimension, actually."

"Seriously? Another one?" IF groaned.

"Don't be like that, Iffy... Look, it doesn't matter if she's the goddess of Planeptune. She can help us," Bradley told them.

"All right... Welcome aboard, Plutia," IF told her.

"I'm glad to be here," Plutia smiled.

"Hmm... This might come back to bite me in the ass. Plutia, can you..." Tristan asked as he looked at Plutia.

"You want to see me transform? Ok..." Plutia smirked as she looked at Tristan, "Whee!"

"Right here?! Wait a second, Plutia!" Bradley told her.

"Awww... No fair," Plutia pouted as she looked up at Bradley.

"Let's worry about this later... Right now, let's get back to the hotel. You 3 can do whatever there," IF told them.

"Huh?! Iffy, reword that please!" Bradley gasped as he looked at her.

"Iffy..." Neptune said with a large blush appearing on her cheeks.

"Hehehe... Iffy's naughty," Plutia giggled.

"Wow... So; you think about that kind of stuff, huh?" Tristan smirked as he raised his eyebrows.

"Eww! Iffy!" Emily gasped.

"Oh, IF..." Noire sighed.

"What's wrong with you guys?" IF asked. Then, a large blush appeared on her cheeks.

"Gwah! Don't misunderstand! G-get your minds out of the gutter!" IF blushed as she turned away.

"Huh... That's rare," Tristan said, "Iffy's blushing..."

"I don't know what's going on," Compa said in confusion.

"Um... Don't ask," Bradley sighed as he shook his head. Compa nods as the group walked out of the cafeteria.

(Man... That was unexpected. Iffy has a dirty mind. Bradley)

(Sorry about putting you with Plutia AND Neptune. I just went with the flow. A/N.)

(Look, don't worry about it... I got out of worse jams before. This won't be a problem. Bradley)

(This will be interesting... Tristan)

(Oh, I almost forgot! Plutia joins the squad! LV: Bradley: 27; Neptune: 27; Compa: 27; IF: 27; Noire: 25; Tristan: 25; Yoko: 19; Plutia: -Due to dimension travel- 30; Emily: -Due to dimension travel- 32. Before you ask, people... Goku WILL BE in this story! Right around the Lowee arc, if all goes according to plan. Bradley's other friends will be another Sayain named Goliath, a Namekian named Azure, a Majin female named Delilah, and a Frieza race alien named Cain. They will appear in different parts of the story and join in on the quest. Ok, that's enough out of me for now! Until next time! A/N.)
