I crawled to my feet, already activating my Gear Drive to level 5. Arfoire flung another pulse at me. I dodged, summoning a gunblade. I fired it at her, wishing to keep it away instead of punish it up close. I heard gunfire coming from the other side. The Spartan Division had just arrived. Arfoire flung another pulse. It hit a bridge, and soldiers were launched in the air. I yelled, "Hey, ugly! Over here!" It looked back at me. I fired at it, aiming for the beast's oversized maw. It roared at me, flinging a boulder at me with telekinesis. I sliced the rock cleanly with the blade. I needed a little more time. I launched a hadouken at it. It did nothing to stop the beast. Arfoire rushed towards me. "Fus Ro Dah!" I shouted. The beast was knocked back a little. It chuckled, whacking me aside with it's huge paw. I landed hard on my side, blacking out.
When I came to, I was being healed by Nepgear, and she was in her goddess form. "Are you all right?" she asked. I sighed, getting up. "I feel like shit." I say. The white twins must not be here yet. Uni, also in her goddess form, sighed. "The battle has been going on for an hour. Nothing has changed." she huffed. I got up. One of the buildings had collapsed. The CPUs darted around the DOS, firing at it. I got up. "Can you give me some covering fire?" Nepgear nodded. "Be careful, Kenji." I nodded. "Wait for my word." I jumped up to a platform. The CPUs had been giving Arfoire a handful. I shout, "Now!" I run towards the beast. I hear a shout from Noire. "Kenji? What the hell are you doing?!" I charge up my Gear Drive to level ten. Either Arfoire goes down, or I do. I run at the beast as my muscles swell. I punch Arfoire. She staggers, her beastly form weakening. I launch a full barrage on the beast, hitting her again and again. I then punch her one last time, in the gut. I pour all of my energy into this last blow, and Arfoire vanishes, a purple streak appearing in the sky. I breathe softly. Blood drips down my back. "Is... it over?" I collapse, exhausted. I black out again.
I wake up in a hospital bed. I look at my arm. It is completely purple, with IV drips stuck into the skin. I look around. A clock reads 6:30. I turn my head, only to hiss in pain when something pops in my neck. I can't move anything else. So I stay put. I hear the door creak open as Compa stepped in. I hadn't been able to get a good look at her since the war started. Her hair was curly, coming down to her chin. She looked beautiful, the early morning light making her shine. She sighed. "I know you can't hear me, but time for your shots." Compa moved to my side. I kept quiet as she stuck a needle into my arm. The pain came and went. She went to my other side, replacing empty baggies with full ones. I pretended that I was asleep. She whispered, "Get well soon," then left. Twenty minutes pass, and the door opened again. I picked up the scent of green tea in the air. Noire. She sat down in the recliner next to me. She was quiet for a few minutes. Then she began. "Kenji, the press is going crazy about you. They want to know how you did it. You singlehandedly got rid of Arfoire." she said softly. "And I have something to tell you. I love you." My heart skipped a beat as I heard her confession. Noire leaned close to me, lips parting.
I opened my eyes. "Is that true?" I asked softly. She kept her eyes closed, whispering, "Of course, dummy." Then she froze, her eyes popping open. She looked at me for a second. She screamed, stepping away from me. She fell backwards, right onto the table. This table must have not been very sturdy, because it broke instantly, taking the flower vase on it with the goddess. IF, who had been on the couch curled under a blanket, jumped. She shouted, "What the hell?" The light flicked on, and Compa was at my side in a heartbeat. "What's wrong?" I popped my neck again, hissing in pain. Compa rubbed my neck. It felt cool and relaxing against my skin. She was putting on some lotion on my aching muscles. I sighed as the pain vanished. I heard another voice. "Is he awake?" It was Histoire. Compa nodded. "Yes, he's awake." Histoire looked over to the broken table. Noire groaned as she got up. Her outfit was thoroughly soaked. She looked at me. "Don't you dare look." Histoire clapped her hands. "As you were!" she shouted. The table reformed, the vase coming back together, the water and flowers filling it just as it did before the accident. Histoire floated towards me and settled down onto my chest. She did this ever so gently, whispering, "Is this okay?" to me. I nodded. She sighed in response. "You don't need to worry about having blood on your hands." she stated. I frowned. "What do you mean?" The oracle shifted position. She now lay relaxed on the tome on her belly. "You didn't kill Arfoire. You actually sent her to another dimension, a feat that I was the only thing capable of pulling, until now." I was confused. I asked, "What is with this dimension crap, anyways?" Histoire brushed some stray strands of hair out of her face. "I have noticed that you seem to really enjoy my lectures." she stated. "Anyways, about dimensions..."
Histoire took a full thirty minutes to lecture me about dimensions, and the CPU's experience on them. I really did like listening to her lectures. When she finished up, she got on all fours. She crawled off the book, and Compa picked up the book, moving it to the bedside table. Histoire had a wild look in her eyes. She giggled, turning around. I could have looked up her skirt if I wanted to, but I didn't, because it's not proper. Histy curled up onto my chest. Compa handed her a small glass full of lemon tea. She sighed and drank from it. She put it down next to her. I was basically immobilized, so this wasn't a problem. She stretched her arms into the air. "Mmm.. I needed this." she whispered, letting her arms fall to her sides again. I then heard footsteps as someone walked into the room. I immediately recognized Big Nep. And for some reason, she was wearing a bathing suit. Histoire gasped when she saw the girl. "Big Nep! What are you doing?" The girl shrugged in response, her chest bouncing with her movement. "Going for a dip, Histy. You mind?" Historic frowned. "Umm, no. That's perfectly fine. But isn't that a little tight on you?" That sent my mind wandering. Big Nep's two piece was pretty form-fitting, especially around the bottom- Blood spilled from my nose. Compa plugged it up pretty quickly. Big Nep sighed. "Well, he really likes my swimsuit." she giggled. I was confused.
Why do I randomly bleed around girls?!
