New chapter! I was going to start writing on the 21st but didn't feel good so I didn't. I'm good now and I can write this again. Ok… last time, Andrew and the group were restoring the goddesses back to normal and they got one more left, Noire. Let's see this stuff, now!

Upon entering the last nation to restore the final goddess, Black Heart, they are ambushed by monsters that were in the nation. Andrew doesn't seem to be bothered by this much, "Well… it wasn't going to be easy."

Neptune feels eager from seeing the horde, "Yeah! I was bored not fighting anything! Let's show these monsters what we're made of!" She summons her katana weapon.

Nepgear summons her saber sword, "I feel the same way, Neptune."

The whole gang brings out their signature weapons out including Scratch with a frying pan.

There was a bunch of different types of enemies ranging from the pixelvaders, heal dogoo, and… other things that I don't remember the names to and I'm too lazy to bring the Wiki in for. The point is that they fight them.

They all started attacking the monsters, Rom and Ram holds out their rods and says, "Now, we can try out our enhanced ice coffin." They begin summoning the special towards a horde of monsters.

Ice looks at them performing it and begins to channel his powers as well, "Iiiiiccce beam!" He shoots a ray of ice at their ice coffin attack and it grows bigger.

The twins begin to throw this enhanced attack at the horde of monsters they are aiming for and they get them for sure.

As Andrew slices some monsters with his dogoo sword, he smiles seeing the twins and the penguin working together.

Scratch says as he smacks them with his frying pan, "Are they eventually going to die down? I'm feeling like it's taking far too long than it should be."

Compa looks at Scratch while stabbing a heal dogoo with her syringe, "Don't give up, Mr. Kitty! You can do this!"

That for sure brightens Scratch up as he looks at Compa's sweet face, "Yes, I can!" He replies almost in a dreamy like voice. He begins whacking the monsters with his frying pan stunning them and then Compa finishes them off with her syringe.

Compa smiles noticing the cooperation, "See? We can also work together just like Rom, Ram and your friend!"

Scratch's eyes glitters, "You're so right, Compa!"

Of course, a pair of menacing eyes sees this from above rooftops, he looks at them with a spyglass, "Chu! I have had it to here with that mangy cat's bullcrap! I'm going to stop him once in for all and I couldn't care less of what Compa thinks! It's only to get rid of him!" Pirachu climbs down the building, "Maybe, I can do better with the assassination, chu." He closes in with a blade dipped with a poison, "This blade would do him in for sure!"

Pirachu pops his head out of the dark alleyway just a few feet away from the fight that's happening with the heroes. "Chu! Would it kill for the old lady to cut back on the amount of enemies? It's hard to navigate to them as it is with my stubby mouse legs." Pirachu then walks towards Scratch with his blade, the monsters travel around so fast that they actually block Pirachu from being seen, "Actually, it's working out pretty alright. You get a pass this time, old lady." Pirachu says to himself as he closes in some more towards Scratch, "I have you now, chu…"

Pirachu gets a distance between him and the cat that he so loathes a lot, "Chu… Compa's there! I… can't bring myself to let her see me kill him! Well… here goes everything, chu!" He throws the poison dipped blade with all he's got and hope for the results that he's looking for.

And… it didn't go far because Pirachu is a weakling, "Chu! That's it! I'm coming over there and facing him right now!" He runs over there with as much mouse stealth as possible. When he got close to Scratch, drags him to a nearby alleyway.

Scratch asks, "What's going on?" Being all confused as hell.

Pirachu glares at him with hatred in his eyes, "Your days of wooing Compa is over! I'm settling the scores here, chu!"

Scratch looks at him and asks, "Who are you?"

That sentence strikes Pirachu, "Chu? You really don't know who I am? Man, you're dumb! I'm Pirachu! I have been the one that has been trying to assassinate you. All in the name of love for my sweet Compa!" Pirachu's eyes glistens as he imagines her in his head. "You have been gotten all cozy with her and I'm going to kill you for that!"

Scratch takes a moment to sink this in and replies, "So… you like Compa, too?"

Pirachu nods, "I've loved her way before you came around! Chu! Let's settle this mano y mano!"

Scratch mentions something from Pirachu's sentence, "Don't you mean 'gato y rata'? We're not people after all…"

Pirachu gets steamed up from that, "Chu… you knew what I meant! This ends now!" He charges at Scratch with all he got and he tackles him, "This is what you get for taking my dear lovely Compa away from me!" It looked like that Pirachu is crying right now because he's hurt from the actions that Scratch unknowingly did. Pirachu punches Scratch's face as much as he could with his mouse paws.

Scratch looks unfazed from the punches, "Err… is this going to keep going?"

Pirachu shouts, "Take this, and this… and this!" Flailing his mouse arms at Scratch's head.

Scratch sweatdrops and asks Pirachu, "How long is this going to take?"

Pirachu attempts to choke Scratch, "Until I kill you, chu!"

Scratch starts laughing, "Hey… that tickles! Cut it out!"

Pirachu angers again, "Tickle? I wanted it to make you suffer!" He feels a collar on Scratch's neck, "There we go, chu!" He pulls at it.

Scratch asks, "Not my collar! Stop! You don't know what you're doing."

Pirachu laughs, "Is that your weakness? Well, how about some more, chu?" He tugs at it some more just like he said he would.

As Pirachu tugs at the collar, he feels a looming presence over him, he takes a look, "A goddess? Piss off, I'm busy!"

Bad mistake for Pirachu as it was Plutia in her HDD form, "Sewer rodents like you should be crawling in their place, back underground where all you other vermin thrive. Let me teach it to you." She grabs Pirachu.

Pirachu struggles pathetically, "Hey! Let me go!"

Plutia gives the rodent a sadistic smile, "Rodents do not give me orders like that! Now cry my name, Madam Goddess!" She begins slamming Pirachu against the wall of the alleyway.

Scratch sighs in relief, "Good thing he didn't take off my collar. That would have been bad." He looks at Plutia, "Thanks. I owe you one!" He smiles at her feeling that a favor was done for him.

Well, he didn't get a reply back as Plutia is being preoccupied with playing with her new toy and smiling sadistically while doing so and laughing.

Scratch says knowing that not a single reply was given back, "Well, then. You enjoy yourself, I'll be over here if you need me, Plutia." He walks back to his friends.

As Scratch walks back, he notices that all the monsters were defeated, "Cool, they're all dead."

Ice nods, "Yep." He then asks a question, "Hey, where did you go?"

Scratch shrugs not really caring about where he went, "Eh, nowhere special. Just a weird rat looking thing that was trying to take off my collar for some reason."

Ice nods again knowing that it's alright, "Well, good thing he didn't. That collar holds your inner racial strength."

Neptune overhears this, "What's that about racial strength?" She's being all nosy as usual.

Ice waves his flipper at her trying to shoo her away, "Nothing that you should be concerned about."

Neptune still continues butt herself in, "Come on! I won't tell if it's a secret. Is it something super awesome about your cat friend?"

Ice continues to wave his flippers, "Nothing. Why are you always this way? Don't you when something is this secretive that you have to keep your distance from it?"

Neptune replies not knowing what he's taking about or just acting like it, "Seriously, this is why Scratch is your only friend. And what a coincidence that he's a cat since their the most curious animals you could know!"

Scratch replies to Neptune, "Well… it's my secret anyway and maybe I can show you later when we can."

Andrew says something to the three, "Hey guys… I see Noire flying above, and Uni is trying to talk to her. It's not looking to end so well."

Uni talks with Noire, "Please, Noire! Come back to us! You are better than this, and you can for sure break out of this trance no problem!"

Noire shouts a special under the trance, "Lace ribbon!" She attacks her only sister.

Uni dodges it as she continues to reason with Noire out of this trance.

Andrew sighs frowning, "Yep, just as I feared. What should we do in a time like this?"

Vert replies giving her input, "We should go and assist her. What do you say, Andy?"

Andrew gives his opinion on that suggestion, "Well, I wish it could be as easy as that. I can't fly up there if they're going to still talk."

Vert smiles saying, "Who says that you can't fly?"

Andrew replies, "Well, I never tried flying like you CPUs can, I'm not sure that it can be done."

Neptune gives Andrew support saying, "Not with that kind of attitude! Come on! Let's get you in the air!" She transforms into her HDD form, "Now… let's see how we can get your wings out."

Neptune grabs Andrew who is slightly freaking out, "Whoa, Purple Heart… I'm not even transformed yet."

Neptune who is currently Purple Heart replies, "What do you mean by that? Do you think that I was going to throw you or carry you to the skies to make you learn to fly?"

Andrew sweatdrops realizing what he said was ridiculous now, "Err… no?" Trying to convince Neptune and the others that it wasn't in his mind.

Neptune explains to Andrew what she's doing, "I'm giving you some of my share energy. Maybe it's an ability that only CPUs have and I thought that if you have share energy, you could fly."

Andrew thinks about this and nodding that confirming that this seems plausible, "Wow… maybe that is how it works. Well, let's find out."

Nepgear transforms and tells the group, "I'm going to help Uni for a bit." She flies off.

Plutia returns in her normal form, "Guuuys, I'm back!" She notices that Purple Heart is hugging Andrew, "Ooh… CPU hugs! I wanna join, too!"

Purple Heart tells her, "No! I do not want you transforming right now. We want give Andy share energy, not crush him." Knowing that Iris Heart sometimes loses herself and goes all out on her target.

Plutia doesn't understand this but nods anyway and replies sadly, "OK…"

Vert asks Purple Heart, "So… does this leave me out as well?" Wanting to hug Andrew as well, obviously.

Purple Heart thinks about it for a moment and then says, "Well, not necessarily, just give me a moment to finish transferring some of my power to Andy."

The other girls feel left out but understand why only the CPUs are doing this so they leave it as is.

Andrew looks at his watch and noticing that it was glowing the whole time that Purple Heart is hugging him and he says to himself, "Is it… actually working?"

Purple Heart steps back and asks Andrew, "Now, Andy… check to see if it worked."

Andrew nods and taps on his watch, "Huh… there's a new meter next to the battery life, 'Remaining Share Energy: 58%'. It's working…"

Vert transforms and then flies in front of Andrew, "Andy… would you like me to help, too?" She holds out her arms waiting to receive a hug.

Andrew nods, "Yeah… I guess you can help me." He walks over to Green Heart and gets the hug, "Ah… soft." He says to himself.

Green Heart giggles as if she heard that, "We can do this anytime if you want to. You're our GPU, Andy. We'll be there when you need us."

Andrew asks Green Heart in a tone that makes him seem to be in a trance, "Am I supposed to be the one helping you? I mean… that's what a GPU is."

Green Heart replies to Andrew, "It could work both ways."

Andrew shrugs still sounding tranced, "Can't argue with that…"

Purple Heart stops them, "Andy… you were only hugging Vert just to get some of her share energy."

Andrew gets reminded and steps back, "Right…"

Purple Heart asks Andrew, "So, are you going to check to see if it worked?"

Andrew taps on his watch and then transforms into his GPU form, "Alright! Let's see some wing action!" He tries tapping into the inner share energy in his system. He grunts and strains trying to do a thing, his whole body then glows light blue, he gets things coming out from his back. He has two orbs float out of two secret compartments out of his back and the orbs project dragon like wings.

Purple Heart smiles as she sees the wings, "You have gotten your wings, Andy. How do you feel?"

Andrew laughs victoriously, "Very great! I believe I can fly…" He starts singing the song.

Purple Heart stops him by saying, "Copyright, Andy…"

Andrew stops, "Right…" He takes off in the air with his goddesses, "Wow… I know that I can't really fly on my own but experiencing this is truly amazing!"

Purple Heart giggles, "I thought that you were afraid of heights, Andy."

Andrew laughs, "I'm afraid of falling to my death. Let's go meet up with Nepgear, Uni and Noire." He leads the two CPUs to Noire.

Nepgear continues to try to get through to Noire, "Noire! Stop this! I really don't want to hurt you!"

Uni sighs and looks at Nepgear frowning, "It seems that we have to." She brings out her rifle weapon, "Sorry we have to do this to you, sis."

"Wait!" Andrew comes in flying towards them, "I just realized that I have no idea how to work this flying thing!"

The two candidates catch Andrew. Nepgear says ecstatically, "You're flying, Andy!" She smiles happily at Andrew.

Andrew nods and tells them, "I don't got much time, though. I can only fly until I run out of share energy. I can't use it in the same way that you girls can." He turns to Noire, "Now… what's up, Noire?!"

Noire shouts, "Volcano dive!" She uses a special attack at Andrew.

Andrew gets hit but then stabilizes himself, "Ow… ok, I think that I'm getting more insusceptible to pain. What are the chances?"

Purple Heart meets up with them and replies, "It might have come from your grandfather's side. He is a war veteran, after all."

Andrew nods and looks at Noire, "Now… Noire! If you don't stop this nonsense right now, young lady. I might have to resort to extreme measures."

Uni tries blocking Noire from Andrew, "No! Don't hurt my sister!"

Andrew laughs and says to Uni, "That's not what I meant. I mean that I would have to bring her back out by force, by using her emotional weaknesses."

Uni asks for clarification, "What do you mean by that?"

Andrew explains, "She acts in this way where that she tries acting tough but she sometime loses her cool and then breaks down."

Uni feels offense to this, "No, she doesn't!"

Neptune and Nepgear looks at each other and Neptune says, "She actually does act like that."

Nepgear nods agreeing to Andrew's claim, "If it gets Noire back, you should go with it."

Uni nods agreeing to this, "Fine… you better know what you're doing, Andy."

Andrew shouts confidentially, "Who the hell do you think I am?!"

The CPUs look at each other and Andrew flies over to Noire, "Hey, Noire! I just want to say that you're the best CPU ever and I want you back!"

Noire swipes her weapons at Andrew trying to hit him.

Andrew dodges it, "Really! I mean it! I always counted on you when I'm out doing my GPU business, you are my inspiration to keep going! Just look into my eyes and see how sincere I am." Andrew grabs Noire's hand gently and stares into her eyes.

Noire looks at him with the same look but then she eventually loses her calmness, "Mmng…"

Andrew nods liking what he's seeing, "That's it… come back to us, Noire."

Noire tries looking away and abruptly takes her hand from Andrew, "Who gave you permission to hold my hand?!" She looks back at Andrew with an annoyed look.

Andrew cheers, "You're back!" He hugs Noire.

Noire blushes, "I… what happened?"

Andrew pulls back and says, "Arfoire happened! We better get to her lair and defeat her… and Metal!"

Noire nods, "I know where she is! Follow me, everyone!"

Andrew mentions to Noire, "Not everyone can fly, Noire."

Noire sighs, "Just follow my lead, Andy."

Andrew laughs, "Whatever you say, oh great CPU!"

Noire blushes, "Stop that!"

Andrew returns back to the group and tells everyone, "We're following Noire, now! Everyone head out!"

With Andrew's orders carried out to follow Noire, everyone head towards the headquarters of the big bad guys.

Well, it would seem to be obvious that Arfoire has actually set her headquarters in Lastation, underneath it, to be more precise. Noire takes the group to a manhole cover, "This is where they are stationed, how I miss this is beyond me so don't blame me for this."

Andrew already in human form nods and says, "No one's blaming you, Noire. Thank you for doing your part in finding Arfoire's location. How did you figure it out, anyway?"

Noire puffs up her chest in pride, "Hmph! A great CPU has outstanding intuition about this type of things."

Neptune, who is back to her normal self replies, "Oh… Noire is talking out of her butt, again…"

Noire retorts at Neptune, "Shut it… at least I found them!"

Neptune opens the manhole cover, "How do you know that they are even in here? It could just be a mistake."

Noire blushes in anger, "I just know! You just gotta trust me on this!"

Andrew sighs "Well… I do trust Noire. It's the only lead we have anyway so we gotta take any chance we got, right?"

IF nods, "You just said it all, Andy. Everybody, ready?"

Everyone nods and Rom and Ram look at each other and Rom says, "Is Blanc going to join us soon?" Ram agrees with her sister, "Yeah, it sucks without her and we might need her."

Ice comforts them, "She'll show up. She still has to calm down her citizens and restore her own nation. It takes time… I'll feel the same way if my town was like that."

Rom nods and the twins embrace the penguin, "You are just like an older brother to us, Ice."

Ice nods and begins to have tears running, "I know…"

Scratch looks at them and smiles, "Are you crying, Ice?"

Ice thinks about denying it but says, "Tears of joy."

Scratch says to his penguin friend, "I never seen you express emotion towards anyone, especially those who are associated with humans. You hate them, didn't you?"

Ice nods, "They capture penguins… I just don't hate the ones here… they're different. They care about everyone here, the goddesses. Even the penguins here seem to enjoy their life, I can really learn to relate to that."

Andrew scratches his head and then says, "Well… ready to roll out for our final boss fight with Arfoire?"

Everyone gives a nod and Neptune tells Andrew, "Are you going to lead us, GPU?" Giving Andrew a heartwarming smile to give him confidence.

Nepgear smiles as well, "We're all right behind you, Andy."

Andrew begins tearing up himself but wipes it, "Alright. Let's go." Andrew just jumps down the hole trusting his friends and himself to get through this together. Everyone comes down one after the other the same way.

At the underground tunnel of darkness, Andrew speaks to everyone while walking, "Everybody good?"

Neptune says replying to the question, "Could use some light, Andy."

Andrew nods and taps on his watch and uses the flashlight app which makes the watch glow and now they can see where they are going, "Good call on that, there's definitely hazards that are unavoidable unless we had light."

The group continues to go through the tunnel looking for Arfoire's hideout. Let's see what they are doing. Underling, who is watching the entrance notices a bright light illuminating from a distance, "Arfoire! I think the goddesses are approaching us! What shall I do about them?"

Arfoire laughs, "Let them come here. I think I can take care of them." Arfoire then looks at Metal, "It looks like it's time to defeat your enemy."

Metal gives a nod and says, "Yes, master." Metal then flies off to secretly kill Andrew.

Vox grunts, "No! You said you wouldn't hurt him!"

Arfoire laughs, "I lied! Besides, I did mention that I would kill him if he gets in my way. What does it look like to you now?"

Vox grunts and tries to break free from his bind, "I won't… stand for this!"

Arfoire looks at Underling and commands, "Restrain our prisoner."

Underling nods, "Yes, boss!" She rushes over to Vox and holds him down, "Stay the hell… still."

Vox laughs as he isn't affected by the restraint, "Who the hell do you think you're dealing with? I am Richard McIntosh, war veteran! I have dealt with bigger shit from my own country than this witch has done to me the past few days!" He struggles.

Arfoire roars at Underling, "Linda! Keep him under control!" Shouting her real name.

Linda nods and says, "You try dealing with an old man. He's really strong for an old guy."

While Linda was distracted by talking, Richard headbutts her and that knocks her out, "I told you… Earth has done me harder than what I call this." He gets up but he's still wrapped up, "I can take you on without using my hands!"

Arfoire laughs, "You are either foolish or deranged from your age, old man."

Richard shakes his head, "Neither. I was always trained to put myself in front of the line of fire for my fellow comrades. I will do the same for my grandson and his friends if I have to."

Arfoire laughs again, "You certainly have lost it over the years. What makes you think that you can stand up to me the way you are now?"

A voice shouts out, "Because he has friends to help him!" It was Nepgear in her HDD form, the other people are there, too.

Arfoire shouts out, "Linda! You are supposed to watch out for them!"

As Arfoire looks at Linda, she is tied up by Iris Heart, she growls.

Purple Heart says, "So, are you ready to surrender or do we have to make you?"

Arfoire shouts with hatred in her voice, "I would rather die in a bloody pulp than surrender!"

White Heart appears with a sadistic grin on her face, "That can be arranged…" She readies her axe.

As the group is going to jump Arfoire, Purple Heart says to herself, "Good luck with your fight, Andrew."

Andrew in his GPU form looks around for his robotic duplicate in the underground lair, "Metal still has to be around here somewhere…!" He feels something dive at his ankles which startles him, "Gah?!" He jumps back and discovers that it is Metal ready to take him on. They stare at each other facing off several meters away from each other, Andrew rubs under his nose with his index finger, "So now we can get down to the real fight! The last GPU standing will be the winner!" He crosses his arms afterwards.

Metal mimics what Andrew does even though he doesn't have a nose, he rubs where he would have one. He beeps, sending something to Andrew's mind via telepathy.

Andrew gets surprised by what Metal says and asks, "What? You're saying the world isn't big enough for both of us and one of us has to go?"

Metal nods and beeps, crossing his arms as well.

Andrew gets a serious look and says, "Well then…" He raises an arm in the air and summons his laser sword which is transformed Glue, "I agree!" He goes into his fighting position with it.

Metal roars his jets and blazes towards Andrew charging at him.

Andrew runs off and charges at Metal. The both clash against each other in streaks of blue and red. Andrew tries slashing Metal with his sword but he dodges and Andrew breaks the ceiling and there's holes that leads back into Lastation. The two get out and begin attacking each other in Lastation, tearing things up.

This actually gets Noire riled up as she hears this, "They better not wreck my nation if they know what's good for them…"

Andrew kicks Metal and he gets launched into a building. Metal gets back up and charges at Andrew again. Andrew brings out his arm cannon and shouts as loud as he can, "Enerblast!" He unleashes the biggest blast that he can muster without holding back.

Metal does the same and shouts out, "Negative Blast!" Shooting a blast that's in the opposite alignment of Andrew. The blasts collide creating sparks of blue and red everywhere. The sparks tear up the area around them as it's almost as strong as lightning if not the exact strength as it.

Andrew groans as he tries to have his blast reach Metal as Metal tries to have his blast reach Andrew, "You might know everything I'm going to do… but that's not going to help you since I know everything you're going to do! Strange… isn't it?!" He groans giving it all he got to destroy his robot counterpart.

Andrew steps forth trying to have his blast collide with Metal, "You caused all this destruction… with Arfoire! You could just have helped us defeat her and save your hollow life. You aren't me… you aren't even a copy of me! Xelor's gone because of you! I'm ending your life!" He shouts loudly running at Metal with all he got.

Metal flies at Andrew with all it got and the blasts mush into each other creating a ball of the two's energy and creating more sparks.

The ball eventually explodes into a bomb of fantastical energy. The goddesses and the others sees the flashes of blue and red from the holes that Andrew and Metal create and hoped for the best that Metal was defeated. Noire looks at Arfoire with anger, "If Andy was defeated then so help me, Arfoire…"

Metal's body then flings towards Arfoire with great force and knocks her down and pins her down on the ground. Andrew comes back down with a lot of damage done to him by the blast, he pants, "It's nothing compared to my armor…" He pants some more trying to catch his breath.

Neptune smiles seeing that Andrew is all right, "Andy!"

Metal spazzes out trying to function, Arfoire pushes the robot off of her angrily and shouts, "Stupid piece of junk!"

Andrew retorts, "Hey! That piece of junk was the only thing that was making you succeed. You should at least be grateful to it."

Arfoire gets up and pants heavily just as much as Andrew, "I'm not grateful to it at all! In fact… now that it's decommissioned… it's now time that I'll use its powers for myself!" She grabs Metal as if she's strangling him and Metal becomes ethereal and goes into Arfoire. She then glows red and starts morphing, she laughs evilly doing so.

Andrew looks as a big figure comes into their view, large enough to cast a large shadow at all of them. "Oh… shit." Andrew says bluntly.

Oh shit, indeed. Now that Arfoire has somehow fused herself with Metal. It's now high time for Andrew to do something about this! But what will he do… find out next time for the finale or whatever!
