*Sigh* Why did I agree to let Neptune hang around my mansion...

Unknown...

A Long time ago, before Neptune become the Goddess of Planeptune. The nation was built decades ago after the founding nations, Lowee and Lastation and before Leanbox was founded. (I can't tell when the nations were built but I'm going to go in this order: Lowee, Lastation, Planeptune and Leanbox...) The city of Planeptune was still futuristic like other nations with bright lights, floating things, tall future skyscrapers, future highways, more floating things, advanced... Signs... EVEN MORE FLOATING THINGS! And finally, a very tall skyscraper, towering all the built skyscrapers with a light on top, brighter like the sun except it doesn't cause people to go blind looking at it...

This nation was first once ruled by a Goddess named Genesis but passed away and now ruled by a daydreaming girl, Uzume Tennouboshi who is known as Orange Heart along with her three close friends, IF's parents, Illyria and Falcon and her uncle, Tyler. The three humans were at the hospital as Illyria was married to Falcon and she got pregnant...

"GAAAAAAAAAAHHH!" And screaming in the delivery room throughout the hospital as Falcon, Uzume and his brother, Tyler was waiting out of the room as he panicked, walking back and forth about over fifty times.

"Bro, you need to calm down" Tyler tried to demand him to stop panicking.

"Calm down? CALM DOWN?!" Then Falcon grabbed his brother by the collar and started to furiously shook him. "How can I be calmed if Illyria's in pain, huh?!" And suddenly, he was karate chopped on the back neck by Uzume.

"Geez, I hadn't seen Falconsy this... Panicky..." She stated.

"Yeah, probably because Illyria might die from childbirth" He guessed as he turned his head and saw two girls. The girl was in her young teens wearing a blue shirt with a Super Star on it, under it was blue overalls with side pockets and chrome linings as one of her pins which are holding her overalls were loose as she wears brown snow boots and white gloves. She has dark brown tomboyish hair along with icy blue eyes and wears a plumber cap with a Lowee symbol on it as her skin is paled. Her name is Natasha, who is known as 'Lady Red Heart', CPU of Lowee.

The other on her right was an older girl, older than Uzume and the plumber-style kid, she wears a black suit with a white shirt and a black bow tie under it and a Lastation badge on her right side of her chest, she has long silver hair with gray eyes as she wears glasses and warm-colored skin. She just basically a businesswoman and a military leader... Her name is Amber, who is known as 'Lady Blue Heart', CPU of Lastation.

All three Goddesses are the 2nd Generation (A.K.A the Sixth Generation of Game Consoles), but where is the fourth Goddess, the CPU of Leanbox? A couple of months ago, Leanbox was badly impacted by the loss of Lady Emerald Heart, the first CPU who died for what she believed in... As a hero...

"Well, speak of the devil..." He whispered.

"Natashsy! Ambsy?" Uzume exclaimed with a happy smile as Natashsy which was a nickname given to Natasha waved with a wide smile and Ambsy which was the nickname given to Amber waved with an emotionless smile on her face.

"Hi, Uzume! It's been so long since our battle against Nephthys" Natasha reminded as she was drinking a frozen orange drink... Very fast...

"Natasha. You're going to suffer brain freeze if you keep drinking like that" Amber warned but Natasha didn't care.

"Eh. I'm a Loweean, I'm totally immune to ice effe- AAARGHH! Brain freeze!" She then got herself brain freeze as she yelped in pain, Amber rolled her eyes.

"See? I told you~" She smiled at the kid as she received a glare from the female plumber.

"Yeah, yeah, soak it up" Natasha mumbled.

"What are you two doing here?" Uzume asked them.

"Natasha came over my Basilicom, said Illyria got pregnant. I was shocked by the news and wish to come but, I was too busy to pay a visit" Amber explained.

"Until I came and dragged her out of the Basilicom! You can thank me very much~" Natasha bowed in front of the women.

"You mean 'forcefully' me out of my Basilicom..." She corrected with her eyebrows frowned.

Flashback...

A couple of hours before the two girls, Amber was in her Basilicom inside her office doing some paperwork till suddenly...

"HERE COMES NATASHA!" The kid rammed herself into the closed door, smashing it open as it coming towards Amber. She then gets off the chair and grabs her future-like sword named 'Twilight's Edge' as she sliced into small pieces. "Hi again!" She happily waved but Amber.

"Don't you ever KNOCK!" She was a bit pissed of her choosing those entrances into rooms. "This is the hundredth time you broke my door down like a berserker, Natasha!"

"Sorry, Amber but please listen. Remember that Illyria got pregnant for six months till she gives birth?" She questioned.

"Yes, you informed me about a few months ago" The women nodded.

"Well... She's having the baby, mmm... N-now..." Natasha played with her figures and told her which she widens her eyes.

"WHAT?!" She yelled her lungs out as she was shocked about this.

"I know, right?! Come on! We need to get there now!" Then the kid grabbed her hand as she began to transform into an older girl, her brown hair turned into pure white with her eyes turned glowing scarlet red and her skin turned even paler. She wears a white bathing suit that only covers her chest and below her waist which is her private parts, exposing her belly button as she has a pair of thigh-high boots and elbow-long gloves with gauntlets, she has wings of a dove and has colors of mostly red and a little bit of blue.

"The intruder went inside the Lady Blue Heart's office! Call back-up!" Suddenly Natasha heard some men coming towards Amber's office.

'Damn, Amber's security must have improved' She cursed as she turned to Amber. "Guess we've taking the old route out of here" She spoke in a high-tone voice as she smirked which Amber know that kind of smirk.

"Natasha, don't you darrrrraaaaahhh!" Then Natasha then blasted out of the Basilicom, leaving a hole in the ceiling in front of her office as the men stared at the distance, they heard an angry shout from the distance. "NATASHAAAAAA!"

Present...

"Well, it wasn't my fault! Your guards won't let me get inside!" Natasha and Amber glared at each other as she excused.

"Don't make excuses, Natasha!" Amber demanded as the kid almost went over the line. She was about to say something but paused, noticing that Uzume and the boys have disappeared.

"Where's Uzume and the boys?" She asked her but the women shook her head.

"Are you two Goddesses done yapping around, you want to see this" Then both turned to Tyler who's poking his head out of the door where Illyria is. As they looked at each other then nodded at Tyler as he went inside the delivery room with the two goddesses. When they went inside was Illyria along with a smiling Falcon next to her as she was holding a baby girl, both Goddesses' eyes widen with Natasha covered her mouth of enjoyment.

"O.M.G! She's so cute!" Both Natasha and Uzume which began to daydream like always shouted in unison with their eyes sparkled. "Ahhhh~ *Thud!*" Then they fainted with a very bad nose bleed.

"*Sigh* Kids these days..." Amber facepalmed in disappointment, even though Uzume and Natasha are mature people, they sometimes act like kids... Then she walks up to Illyria. "Hello, Saber" She greeted with a smile as the women who's holding the baby turned to her.

"Just call me Illyria, Amber" Illyria smiled back as she looked at her newly born daughter. "What should we name her?" She then asked them as Uzume and Natasha quickly recovered from cuteness overload.

"What about... Isabella?" She suggested but Natasha disagrees.

"Nah, that's too royally" Natasha reasoned as Amber glared at her. "How about Katyusha!" She then suggested another name.

"I prefer Isabella"

"Nope, Katyusha..."

"Isabella!"

"Katyusha!"

"ISABELLA!"

"KATYUSHA!" As both Goddesses went into a fight over naming Illyria's daughter, Falcon thought of something quick before they make his daughter.

"Ladies! Ladies, calm down" He calmed down the two Goddesses, getting their attention. "I think should call our little daughter... IF!" Then they all went silent as they stared at him for a couple of seconds.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"...Eh?" They all tilted their heads in confusion.

"You know. I.F stands for Illyria and Falcon, the first letter in our names" Falcon explained as they all blinked but what even more shocking is that...

"That's the most stupidest name I ever heard" Tyler commented. "There's no way Illyria would agree with tha-"

"Fufufufu~ I love it" Illyria officially agreed with him as the three Goddesses widen their eyes in shock.

"EEEEEEEEHHH?!" They all screamed in unison but their scream almost made the baby cry.

"Be quiet! You're scaring her!" She warns them as she tries to calm her daughter down.

"I'm so/terribly sorry" They apologized to her as she kisses her daughter's forehead and then smiled.

"We're going to have a wonderful future, my sweet IF"

The Rookie

Location: Underverse (Engaged yet again by Incendio)

Eleven days after drop...

Meanwhile in the present, Rookie and the girls were taking cover behind the rocks as Incendio who's in his Hell-mech was suppressing fire with napalm flames, scorching the ground. They were at a huge disadvantage as 5pb. was knocked out by RED, both unconscious and melee combat is not very effective against a mech with a flamethrower.

"How the hell are we going to deal with this?!" IF questioned as she grinds her teeth in frustration.

"Taking him head-on will be suicide. Unless we take out his flamethrower and his missile pods, nyu" Broccoli explained.

"Agree. I and IF will get his attention while Nepgear and Rookie will take out his weapons" Cave forms a plan as they nodded in agreement, IF and Cave soon ran out of the cover to the left as they stand in the open.

"Hey! Come and get us, roasting hot-head!" IF insulted him and they get his attention as Incendio twitched from her insult, turned away and aimed his weapons at them.

"That was a bad insult, flat-chest!" He insulted back which she cringed from the insult but continued following the plan. As both IF and Cave dodged the flames, his missile barrages and avoided being grabbed by his mace, Nepgear who went into her HDD form and Rookie began to flank behind the mech where's his fuel tanks are attached. They then began to fire at the tanks with their Gun-Blades.

*BOOM!* And exploded... As the force of the explosion knocked them back towards the huge rocks, Rookie caught the CPU Candidate and took the hit as he groaned in pain after the impact, slowing falling into the ground as she was shocked.

"Rookie! Are you okay?" Purple Sister ran to Rookie and tried to help him.

"*Cough!* *Pat!* I'm fine, Nepgear. Argh~ My back..." He answered but he still groans as the Purple Sister called Compa for aid.

"Compa! Rookie needs help!" Purple Sister shouted as Compa who's hiding behind the same rock heard her voice and began running as fast as she could, reaching to them. "Get him to safety, Compa"

"Alright, Ge-Ge" Compa then carry the ODST but due to his equipment on him including his Gun-Blade, she wasn't strong enough to carry him. 'He's heavy...' Then she dragged him back behind cover while Purple Sister continued to take out Incendio's weapons.

"Goddamn it!" He growled in frustration as he lost his entire supply of napalm liquid which started to scorch the ground around him. "You people really love flanking my as-" As he was glaring at Purple Sister, pointing his Heavy Flamethrower which has a backup tank attached to it, he was then immobilized by a number of light blades on his Hell-mech.

"TAKE THIS!" Incendio suddenly saw IF at the distance as she raised her right Qatar, glowing with bright purple, she slashes down into the ground and the Qatar's trace slices the Hell-mech's left arm, destroying his Heavy Flamethrower and took out the mech's energy shield.

"YOU IGNORANT BITCH!" He was very furious, launching his napalm missiles from its pod as the missiles loudly whistles, coming towards IF till Cave jumped in front of her. She then unleashes a large barrage of bullets at him as they destroyed the incoming napalm missiles. The mech's shield didn't recharge in time, Incendio covers himself with the mace and took major hits on the armor even destroyed the N.M.P. "AAAARRRRGGH!" The mech was immediately forced down into the ground with the mace supporting him.

"He's pinned down! Now's our chance!" IF shouted as she, Cave and Purple Sister began to rush him. Incendio's eyes were covered with shadows as he grinds his teeth, the mech started to recover and raised its mace with a burning glow on it as the girls were closing in fast.

"RRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" He then roared in anger, slamming the mace into the ground as it causes a huge shockwave and a large crater, knocking back the girls with a huge amount of force as they impacted the ground but soon recovered. The girls then rushed him yet again but Incendio had enough of their cheap attacks as his fury pushed them back, using the mace's gravitation as both Cave and Purple Sister went back and impacted the nearby rocks, as for IF, she recklessly charged at Incendio.

Incendio was about to pull her out of his sight but remembered her insult a couple of minutes ago when he got easily distracted by them. He soon evilly smirked at IF as he uses the mace's gravitation to pull her towards him then when she's in range of the mace, he canceled its gravitation and swings upwards. The mace impacts IF's body as she spatted blood out of her mouth with wide eyes and went flying towards the ceiling of the cave.

"IF/IFFY!" The girls' reaction was nothing but shock, Rookie stared at IF's body smashing into the ceiling and fell down onto the ground as she immediately went unconscious. He grinds his teeth and clenched his fists, while Compa who's was too distracted staring at IF, on the ground as well as the other girls, he grabbed his Gun-Blade and put it on his back. He sneaks through the battlefield to the edge where there's lava at the bottom.

'If he's blinded by his rage, I might bait him off the edge' Rookie thought as his back still hurts like hell, he saw the Hell-mech slowly walking towards IF with both Purple Sister and Cave in bad shape. He finds a small rock on the ground, he picks it up and throws it at the back of the Hell-mech as it reached to IF and about to squash her...

*Bing* *Bing* *Bing* The rock hit the mech and Incendio stopped. He began to turn around to find Rookie, standing at the distance as he glared.

"Trying to be a hero, huh?" He growled as Rookie didn't respond but gesturing a taunt at him. "Fine... Be that way, trooper" And Incendio began to charge at him then jumped into the air which is not that high with its mace raised up. Rookie smirked, giving a big opening to dodge his attack by running under him as Incendio lands his attack but he didn't get him, leaving yet another crater on the ground, he turns around. "You can't run from m- huh?" But thanks to the crater and the amount of force he made, the ground under him began to break off, falling into the lava below.

'Just like I plan' Rookie watched him descends into the lava then suddenly without noticing, Incendio uses the mace's gravitation to pull Rookie with him. 'Or maybe NOT!'

"If I gonna die! YOU COMING WITH ME!" Incendio yelled as Rookie while being pulled along with the mech, he couldn't find anything to hold on as the surface was too smooth to grab on. As both Incendio and Rookie fall off the edge, he grabbed the edge with both of his hands as for Incendio, his mech fell into the lava as it slowly sinking.

"ROOKIE!" The girls cried for the shock trooper as he clung on the edge. As he is pulled by the Hell mech's Gravitational Mace, he used his right hand to grab his Gun-Blade, aimed at Incendio then fired a laser shot on the head, disintegrating it and killing him in the process as the mace's gravitation was turned off while the mech descends into the lava. Rookie, however, lose grip on the edge and began to fall into the lava as well till he was grabbed, he watched the mech sunk deeply into the magma as he looks up to the one who caught him, it was Purple Sister.

"H-hang on, Rookie!" Purple Sister lifts him back to the edge. When she saw ground below her, she drops him from her hands as well as herself falling onto the ground which she turned back to her normal form, patting. Rookie soon gets up, still feeling the pain on his back and saw Cave and Broccoli running towards them, it seems that Compa ran to IF to aid her as he walked up to Nepgear and helped her.

"Need a hand?" He whispered, stretching his hand to her as she looked up at him and smiled, Nepgear grabbed his hand and Rookie pulled her up to her feet.

"Thank you, Rookie" She thanked him but he shook his head.

"No. I should thank you, Nepgear" He thanked back to her which she was surprised with her eyes to widen. "For saving me from falling into my death"

"Oh... Umm... You're welcome!" She suddenly blushed for a second then smiled even though her body hurts really bad thanks to Incendio's Hell-mech, as Nepgear stood up, she aches in pain and accidentally went off balanced but the ODST caught her. "Thank you" She thanked him yet again and he nodded.

"Just be careful next time. You know that most of us are in bad shape" Rookie explained as he helps her stand up.

"Right" Nepgear agreed as they saw both Cave and Broccoli reached up to them along with a Nep Bull which Nepgear made from her big sister's recipe.

"Are you two okay?" Cave asked them as she gave the Nep Bull to Nepgear, drinking the whole can which she began to heal her wounds.

"*Sigh* We're fine, Cave" She answered as Cave was relieved.

"That was brave of you, Rookie. Same to you, Nepgear" She gave them a smile and congratulated for their bravery... Unlike Broccoli...

"And a bit reckless. You've almost got yourself killed, Rookie, nyu!" Broccoli scolded him for his recklessness as he responded with silence.

"Oh come on, Broccoli. He did save IF from that manic with his mech" Nepgear tried to explain but Broccoli still has that frowning look on her face. 'I only wish that his mech is still around. I really wanted to examine it but it's gone...' And her mind went fangirl for a few seconds. "Umm... Is IF alright?" Then she asked them as the four turned to Compa which she aiding IF, drinking a Nep Bull along with a couple of Healing Drinks thanks to Compa carrying some medical supplies with her.

"It seems that she survived quite a punch, nyu" Broccoli stated, the four ran to IF and Compa.

"Are you okay, IF?" Nepgear asked as the brunette stand up to her feet by herself along with Compa packing her stuff and coughed a few times.

"*Cough* *Cough* Yeah. I'm okay, Gear but that asshole sure does pack a punch..." IF flexes her body and picked up her Qatars. "So what happened while I was unconscious," She asked the group.

"Your friend, Rookie lured that pyromaniac off a cliff to save you. Now, he is no more" Cave explained which shocked IF about it as she stared at the shock trooper with her eyes widen.

"You... Saved me?" IF questioned him and he nodded, speechless for words as she whispers to herself and smiled. "Wow, if only I can peck you one more time" But she didn't notice that Compa was right next to her.

"You kissed Rook-Rook?!" Compa's sudden shout made the group jumped, especially for Rookie as he remembered that 'a bit of an embarrassment' moment back at the Leanbox's Basilicom.

"W-what?! What are you talking about? I didn't kiss him" IF began to panic with her face totally red beet.

"Oh, yes you did kiss him!" The group then turned to see RED who came out of nowhere with a photo on her right hand, waving at them as they were shocked to see her fully recovered.

"What the goodness?! You're alright, RED?" Nepgear asked about her suddenly recovery from a huge toss from the Hell-mech's gravitational mace.

"Dunno... Maybe a miracle happened, I can't remember..." RED shrugged as she doesn't know what happe-

Wait a second... Neptune? What did you do?

Neptune: Uhhhh... I may give her a 'Day period of Plot Armor' without her knowing... *She smiled awkwardly* Hehehehe~

YOU WHAT?! *Brings out his 'Anti-Nep Weapon' which is an Eggplant Launcher as she was sudden paled*

Neptune: NEPUUUU! NOT THE EGGPLANT LAUNCHER! *She ran away and he pursued her*

I told you to NOT STEAL MY STUFF!

...Anyway, back to the story...

"But I got the evidence here!" RED showed the group the photo as they examined it and you will guess it if you read the previous chapter, it's IF kissing Rookie on the right cheek as he doesn't have his helmet on with his eyes widen and her eyes closed. But due to RED took a photo in a different angle of view, it looks like they kissed on the lips.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"EEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHH?!" All of them except for Cave and obviously RED broke this silent moment with a loud scream which is loud enough for 5pb. to regain consciousness as she groaned.

"Ahh~ What happened?" The idol rubbed her eyes as it slowly open, she saw the group at the distance, completely unharmed (She missed the entire fight scene...). The only thing she remembered was getting knocked out by RED's body. She starts to get up till her entire body went numb and drop back onto the ground. "Ouch~ My back..." She groaned as she closed her eyes.

Back with the group...

Meanwhile, the group was too dumbfounded that IF just kissed Rookie which is not true as she shouted in embarrassment.

"WE DIDN'T KISS EACH OTHER!"

"But this photo showed that you kissed him on the lips, nyu" Broccoli stated as IF furiously shook her head.

"RED, I'm going to-" As she about to say her last word and get her Qatars as RED suddenly went pale, she felt something on her shoulder and turned around, seeing Rookie right next to her with his hand on her shoulder as he shook his head then she pouted. "You sometimes be a party pooper..." She muttered in disappointment which her voice was loud enough to be heard by Rookie as he rolled his head.

"Well to be honest to myself, you two make a wonderful couple" Cave commented with a little smile on her face as both Rookie and IF looked at each other, the brunette look away from him with a blushing face.

'A wonderful couple?!' IF screamed inside her mind as Rookie confronted her by patting on her head. "You're not helping, Rookie..." She covered her blushing face with both of her hands.

"Hmm? Where's Ge-Ge?" Compa then noticed that Nepgear was missing as they looked around the area then saw Nepgear walking towards 5pb. who's had her eyes closed and her body felt numb.

"Here, let me help you" Nepgear helped the idol, pulling her up from the ground as her eyes are still closed.

"Whoa. Thanks for that, Cave" 5pb. balanced herself and thanked... Him? Well, her eyes are closed so it makes sense as Nepgear was surprised that the idol called her 'Cave'.

"Goodness, I'm not Cave. My name's Nepgear, Miss 5pb." Nepgear corrected which confused the idol as she rubbed her eyes and see clearly that it's not Cave but just a stranger in her view.

"Huh?! Eeeeeek!" 5pb. with her eyes widen dashed away from Nepgear and hid behind Cave's body as everyone except for Rookie was surprised of her sudden change of her personality, especially Nepgear.

"She ran away from me... Do I smell funny?" She questioned herself with a sweatdrop.

'...I'm not sure when the last time the girls had a shower...' Rookie scratches his back neck in confusion as Cave sighed and explained.

"Do not be alarmed. Forgive her. When not performing, she is a very shy individual" Cave then looked behind her back, looking at the shyness idol as she pops her head out behind her.

"I... I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to run, but-" She quickly apologizing Nepgear for running away from her as Broccoli interrupted.

"A shy girl in front of a packed audience, nyu?" She doubted with one of her eyebrows raised.

"W-well, it's like... I flip a switch inside of me and then..." The idol puts both her hands together as she explained. "B-but usually, no, I'm too scared..." Then looks away from the group.

"Whatever the case, we're glad that you and RED are alright, Miss 5pb." Compa was glad that both 5pb. and RED are alive then out of nowhere.

"Yes. I am grateful to you all. I don't know how to repay you" The Mascot appeared from Compa's back as everyone was surprised to see it.

"Whoa! Where did that Mascot come from?!" RED questioned.

"Well, Miss Mascot was hiding inside my nurse's pouch" Compa explained.

"And we didn't even notice it, nyu..." Broccoli responded and the nurse nodded her head.

"..."

"..."

'...'

"..."

"...Well anyway, don't worry about it" Nepgear breaks the silence as she continued. "We were just fixing the problem that ASIC created" She explained.

"And that pyromaniac" IF added as everyone agreed with.

"With both Chika and the Mascot safe. I pray this will put Leanbox back on the path towards order" Cave hoped for the future of Leanbox.

"Alright, our work is done. Let's get back to the Basilicom" And the group walked out of the abandoned outpost with the Leanbox Mascot while RED's discussing something out of the blue.

"So, how we going to do with your future marriage with Mister Shock Trooper" RED has an evilly smirk as IF blushes yet again.

"CAN YOU STOP TEASING US AS A COUPLE?!" Then the Brunette hits the Little Teaser at the back neck.

"OW! AGAIN, BAKA?!" She shouted in pain as everyone laughed including Rookie but in his mind. Walking back to the city, the group didn't notice that they're being watched by someone none other than Mister Assassin who's been sent by General Spectre as he was cloaked, he watched them walking at the distance then he contracted their main base.

Unknown Location...

*Beep* *Beep* *Beep*

"Assassin to Black Legion, do you read me" The Assassin responded back at the Black Legion's Main Base.

"This is General Spectre, any report on Incendio?" The General asked.

"No... He failed yet again to kill the Trooper along with the girls... With the cost of his life" He reported the mission as an utter failure.

"How unfortunate..." He growled in disappointment. "Return to the Leanbox Basilicom and see what their next move is" He ordered.

"As you wish, General" The Assassin obeyed then ended the transmission.

"...So..." The General turned around, seeing his assistance, Beta. "Incendio's officially K.I.A?" The robot asked and he nodded.

"Yes, I knew that he would fail and get himself killed due of his... Reckless actions..." He explained the suddenly...

"*Beep* *Beep* This is Salvage Team, your salvage commander has been disobeying orders yet again..." A Radio Operator contracted and noted that one of his commanders has been disobeying orders.

'Please don't tell me it's those salvage brothers again...' The General doubted and responds. "Explain..." He growled with a frown face.

"Rogue and his men almost reached the Shield Dome around Odyssey City but Walter stopped them and put them in line" The Radio Operator explained the incident as General Spectre slams his fist onto the hologram table in anger.

"Damn it all! I told him simple instructions to NOT enter the capital city!" He angrily shouted. "Once they are done with the salvage, I want them in here ON THE DOUBLE!" He demanded.

"I'll report to them as soon as possible" Then the Radio Operator ended the transmission.

"Hmm. It seems that Walter made it in time to stop his younger brother" The robot lightly giggled. "But General, you still believed in the 'Tales of the Virus' and the corruption inside the Magnavox Tower?" He asked.

"Yes... Even though the Second Generation CPUs stopped the Virus inside Odyssey, I doubt they wipe them out..." General Spectre answered and became worried. "If the Tales of the Virus and its rumors are true" Then he switched the hologram table from Planeptune's city to an unknown figure with glowing crimson eyes and wires coming out of its body as it wielding a machine gun.

"We'll be facing a greater, yet ancient enemy..."

Author's notes:

Welp, I guess we're even then, Neptune...

Neptune: Yeah... Also, what is with the last part. You know, the 'Tales of the Virus' propaganda.

I watched too much Awakening the Nightmare DLC videos since the release... The Virus won't be a threat to our main characters.

Neptune: Spoilers alert! They're involved in the story I just read a few weeks ago! Including the new OCs in the first part of the chapter!

As I said, those OCs are not involved with the story. They're in the past before YOU were created in the first game!

Neptune: Yeah... *Remembers the first Neptunia game back at 2010* Good times... *Then remembers reading her first fanfiction she read which it is obvious, a NeptuneXNoire with Lemons* Good times...

Hey, are you still having that wet dream again? *Neptune blushed*

Neptune: Nope! Not at all~

...Right~

[Quick note]

Okay, I'm going to make a list that was delaying the goddamn chapter production:

1. Exams are still up. (Even though the school is finished, they still have exams...)

2. TF2's recent update 'Jungle Inferno' just force me to complete the Pyro contracts (A.K.A. It's Pyro Hell and Spy's worst nightmare in the first few days).

3. Lazy as Neptune trying to get off the bed but too tired to get up cause it's Mondays...

And that's about it... I think...
