I own nothing besides OC and Story
Neptune ran throughout the cave, searching for Noire and Uzume. He simply followed the sounds of the two yelling, most probably fighting a monster, or the Ancient Dragon that they came out here to kill. He finally arrived at the location of the two, and, as he had thought, they were fighting Dogoo. It was a wide open space, as Neptune stood up high from a path entering the space.
"Graah! D-Damn it, get off me!" Uzume yelled. The Dogoo that was thrown off kept try to get under her clothing.
"Wait! Is this a fan service scene?! This story has fan service planned?!" Neptune had thought as he suddenly went deep into thought. Noire, who killed a Dogoo with her spear, and also holding onto some parts of her clothing, noticed Neptune up on high. Angered, sh spun her spear around with both of her hands, letting go of her loose armor and clothing, killing 4 Dogoo.
"Neptune! Quit staring like a pervert and help us kill these things!" Noire yelled, as some noticeable spots on her body were now visable. Noticing this, she gave a 'kyah!' and crotched down, covering herself. "These damn Doggo!"
Jumping down, Neptune readied the weapon in his hands, the Trinity Blade, as he rushed at the Dogoo. One jumped up at Neptune, but he defended quickly by slashing it in two, instantly taking it down.
"Why are you two having so much trouble with Dogoo?!" Neptune asked, as he started taking down Dogoo one after the other.
"They're not strong, there's just a lot of them!" Uzume yelled as she killed one. "A lot more than 20 Dogoo, that's for sure!" She finished as she killed another one. One jumped up onto her shoulder and tried to get underneath her clothing, but she threw what she could off before it fully turned into slime, but some slime still cover her shoulder.
"Did you find the Ancient Dragon yet?!" Neptune asked, killing another one. Noire, who managed to put back on most of her armor, but still remained loose, got up and impaled a Dogoo, killing it.
"No! We haven't found it yet!" Noire responded, as she killed another one. "We think it's somewhere around here though, so be careful!" Noire said, as a Dogoo got underneath her skirt, making her blush as yell out.
"W-Wait, Damn it! Sto...!" Noire tried to get the Dogoo off, but to barely any avail.
"Nepsy! Noirsy! Cover your ears!" Uzume suddenly yelled, as both suddenly looked at her, but insticntly covered their ears. Uzume rose both of her dual knives behind her head, and a orange aura suddenly covered them. She the s tabbed both the knives into the ground, and s big blast of sound erupted, killing all of the Dogoo.
After a moment of covering their ears, regardless of the end of the sudden use of Magic, they slowly removed their hands from ears and looked at Uzume.
"Was...that Sound Magic?" Noire asked, and Uzume nodded.
"Yeah, I know that and Dream Magic. But that's the only types of Magic I can use." Uzume said. "But I just started learning it recently so it's not that powerful, it can take down Dogoo okay, but it just stuns higher level monsters."
"Either way, it's a pretty useful Magic." Noire commented.
"Alright, now...where would we find a Ancient Dragon?" Neptune suddenly asked.
The sounds of giant rumbling, like bombs, started. Neptune instantly regretted asking that, because everyone knows that's a way to trigger a boss fight, so in other words, he jinxed it.
"Oh that does not sound good..." Uzume said...as something started to some out of a opening that almost reached the ceiling. Out of it, two red glowing eyes emitted from the darkness within the cave, as it walked out, with booming loud steps. There stood an Ancient Dragon that had brown skin and black horns on its body.
"When you wish we had a gun now?!" Uzume asked as the Ancient Dragon breathed fire at the three, who managed to dodge at the last second by rolling to the side.
"Shut up!"
The Ancient dragon breathed fire at Neptune, who had then dodged out of the way by rolling to the side. "Crap, do we have any way of damaging it!?" Uzume yelled, as she dodged a strike from its claw.
"I have one!"
"What would that be?!" Uzume asked, as Neptune rushed at it with his weapon ready.
"Hit it til it dies!" Neptune exclaimed as he jumped up at it, slashing its eye, and jumping behind it back, before repeatedly hitting it. Noire merely stared at him like he was insane.
"He's lost his mind!" She thought as Neptune repeatedly attacked it. The Ancient Dragon then whipped its tail at him, hitting Neptune and sending him crashing into a wall. He hit the ground, and held his gut in pain. He still held onto his weapon as he struggled to get up, but got up regardless.
However, the Ancient Dragon didn't intend to allow Neptune to recover. It then loaded fire in its mouth, intending to fire it at Neptune.
"Crap, Nepsy! Get outta the way!" Uzume yelled as Neptune looked up, but the Ancient Dragon had already breathed a stream of fire at him. Barely being able to dodge, Neptune rolled to the side, with the end result being his ankle getting burnt. Hissing in pain, the Ancient Dragon was about to breath more fire, but Uzume jumped up and stabbed the slashed Dragon Eye completely, making the Ancient Dragon Roar in pain.
"Neptune!" Noire yelled, lending him her shoulder as she helped him get to safer distance. Noire set him down next to a wall, as she gripped her spear again. She then glared at Neptune.
"Idiot! What the hell were you thinking?!" Noire yelled, getting in his face about it. "That was too reckless for fighting an Ancient Dragon! Don't you know any better?!" Neptune merely stared at her.
"Err...have a potion?" Neptune asked, as Noire grew a comical vein on her head. But before she could yell at him yet again-
"Noirsy! Nepsy! Look out!" Uzume yelled as the two looked at her, and saw the Ancient Dragon loading fire in its mouth and was about to breath fire at the two of them. Noire widened her eyes in realization, and quickly tried to get Neptune up. However, the Ancient Dragon breathed out fire at the two before she could even do that.
"No!" Uzume yelled as she was about to activate her Sound Magic again, but even that wouldn't have done anything in this situation. However, before the fire hit the two (lovebirds), Neptune had risen his sword up and pointed it at the flames, with it starting to glow, and then the flames hit.
However, lighting was then spotted. As a cloud of flames was casted, lightning started to appear, and shortly, Neptune was on one knee as he was in a stance that looked as though he slashed something to the side, with the sword in his left hand.
Noire was behind him, as she watched in shock at the sudden twist.
"Neptune...d-did you just use Lightning Magic?" Noire asked as Neptune looked back, with his face with just surprise than shock.
"I don't know any Lightning spells! It was the sword!" Neptune exclaimed as he gripped the blade, and it started to glow and emit lightning. This action shocked Neptune as he held the blade of Lightning. (Ha, puns)
"I heard about this once before...The Sword controls Lightning, The Gun controls Fire, the Staff controls Ice, and the Bow controls Wind..." Noire thought as she stared at Neptune, who stared at the Trinity Blade in his hands.
"Nepsy! Use that and defeat the Dragon!" Uzume yelled at the Ancient Dragon then charged at the two. Noire, with quick reaction, reached into her sachet and pulled out a healing potion in a vial, uncapping it and making Neptune drink it.
"Mmf...!?"
"Shut up and drink! Dodge!" Noire suddenly yelled as both then rolled out of the way, the Ancient Dragon crashing into the wall. Dazed, it stumbled around a bit before Neptune gripped the sword with two hands.
"Alright, let's do this!" Neptune exclaimed as he charged at the Ancient Dragon. Quickly jumping up at it, charging lightning into the blade, she strikes it across the face, landing a devasting blow of lightning on it. Roaring in anger, the Ancient Dragon then tried to slash it with its' claw. However, Neptune jumped above it, charging more lightning into his blade. He then striked down like a hammer, and as a result, a boom of thunder and lightning exploded throughout the cave.
Jumping down, Neptune held the sword in his right hand now, as the Ancient Dragon stumbled a bit.
"It's not done yet!" Noire yelled, as Neptune then stood up, turned around, and gripped the blade, charging more lightning into it.
"I know!" Neptun yelled back as he ran up to the Ancient Dragon, and then stabbed it in its heart. Roaring in pain, life had left its body. Neptune quickly jumped to the side to avoid getting crushed by the dragon, as the Ancient Dragon then fell down, dead.
"Hah...hah...hah...Is it dead now?" Neptune asked, breathing in and out. Noire walked up to Neptune, with her spear resting on her shoulder.
"Looks like it." Noire said. "Let's bring back a scale or something and prove we killed it."
"Why? We can just bring back the tome." Neptune said as he pulled the tome out of his jacket. Noire and Uzume went plate eye'd at the tome in Neptune's hand.
"You found the library!?" Noire yelled in shock, and Neptune nodded.
"Yeah, since we got it, we can go back home and slack off." Neptune said, as the two didn't react and just stared at him with plate eyes. Ultimately, navigating through this cave was supposed to be hard, considering most of it was dark, and with monsters lurking about, that'd be even more dangerous. Yet Neptune finds it so quickly and easily...
"...Well...I guess since we have it, we should go home." Uzume said.
"But we're not slacking off." Noire then said sternly, getting a shock from Neptune.
"Wha-?! Why?! We did this work here and that should be enough!" Neptune complained.
"Just doing one quest doesn't mean you can slack off the rest of the day!"
"You're too strict!"
Before Noire could yelled any further, a sudden development reminded her of something in her previous fight just now.
The Dogoo made her clothing more loose.
She remembered this because most of her armor then slipped off and hit the ground, as Noire stood only in her under wear and a black shirt. A silence occurred.
...
Noire blushed harder than ever before.
"...Hey Wait! You can't bl-!"
"PERVERRRRRT!"
"GAAAAAAH!"
Now walking back towards Sylph Village, Noire had got her clothing and armor on to a extent that they would t fall off. Neptune just kept quiet with a red hand mark on his cheek, as Uzume also kept quiet, not wanting to get involved in this type of situation.
So in short, it was quiet the whole way back...
...
"...No-?"
"Shut up!"
"..."
"..."
Uzume was bout to say something to try to at least ease up the mood, however, she quickly glared at the forest and immediately grabbed the collars of Noire and Neptune's shirts and jumped into some bushes.
"Uzume, Wh-?!" Noire tried to yell, but Uzume covered her mouth.
"Quiet!" Uzume growled as some footsteps were heard. Two men in black knight armor walked past the bushes, as they continued to talk quietly. When they were out of hearing distance, Uzume looked up.
"...Obsidian Troops..."
