Okay, Middonaito here again, and here's a and Kujou decide to take a quest and Planeptune, Lowee and Leanbox have all of their quests taken, so instead, we go to Lastation by means of Plot Convenience. (Aw, yeah.)
After reaching the guild, we meet Kurogane, a guild agent who's experienced, and he helped us pick our weapons.
Choosing an easy kill quest, we go out and... do the quest, duh. But something we did NOT expect, is that an Ancient Dragon appeared. No worries, Kurogane can deal with him... Right?!
Let's find out!
"RAAAAGGH!"
The ground below us tremble. What could... Oh no...
A... An Ancient Dragon... A scaly one at that...
"Sh... Damn, it's a tough cookie..."
"Kurogane, have you fought an Ancient Dragon before?" I ask him. Hope he-
"No, sorry, hehe..."
What!
Third Person POV:
"RAAGGH!" the dragon roared with all its might.
Kurogane, Middonaito, and Kujou ready themselves against a formidable enemy...
[Insert cool battle worthy BGM here XD]
"Take a stance, you two! This is gonna be so reckless," Kurogane said with a grin. He LOVES to go all out, as you can tell.
Kurogane runs towards the dragon, swinging his sword, but...
WHACK!
The dragon uses its wings like a giant fan and blows Kurogane off his feet, making him hit a rock. "GAH!" he shouted in pain.
"Kurogane! You okay?" Middo shouted. Kurogane gave a thumbs up. Then he stood up and ran towards the dragon again.
He predicted the time the dragon would use the same trick, and he unleashed one of his skills, "Cancel Slash!", and it cancelled the dragon's attack. Middonaito then prepares his newly obtained skill, "Element Rain!".
Fire then rained down on the dragon, then water, then ice, then lightning... But it didn't help the party find the boss' weakness.
"This is practical bullsh-" Kurogane shouted, then a dragon flew towards him and tackled him.
"Divine Shot!" Kujou added in her own skill, and like "Element Rain", a barrage of blessed arrows, that you can compare to those bullet hell games, were repeatedly fired from Kujou's bow, never missing a single barrage shot. And it did quite a damage to the Ancient Dragon...
"Woah, Kujou!"
"I know right?! The perks of being a King's Ranger really helped!"
Middonaito stood wide-eyed, "You're a medieval girl?! And a King's Ranger?!" then Kujou winked at him, "Yep!"
Middonaito then shook his head to focus on the threat at hand... "How do we defeat this thing? It's showing no signs of weakness... Think Middo, THINK!"
Meanwhile, Kurogane drank one of his three potions held on the strap that also holds his sword's sheath.
*gulp*
"That should do it..." he said to himself. Then all of a sudden, his vision began to distort, and his head took excruciating pain... "Tch, I gotta fix these hybrid potions' side effects! Now, come at me, douche dragon!"
"GRRRAAHH!"
The dragon seemed to acknowledge Kurogane's taunt, and tried to tackle him, but the swordsman quickly moved than he did earlier, making the dragon hit a rock. A VERY HARD rock.
"Heh, that's what you get, you fuc-"
BANG!
The dragon, now REALLY pissed, tackled Kurogane faster than he can finish saying the f-bomb.
"Tch…" but it seemed like it didn't affect him in the least bit.
Now, a herd of Dogoos spawned out of nowhere, and Kurogane quickly take notice. "Dammit, these things again!"
Back on Middo's side, Jelly popped up and helped Middonaito a bit. "Wow, this dogoo is really loyal..."
"One Slash!" Kurogane shouted as he defeated the dogoo herd by himself. "Tch, if more of these pricks come up, we won't be able to defeat this fuc-"
BANG!
"Ghhk!" The dragon once again set his sights on Kurogane. And the swordsman doesn't like the treatment very well.
"Dammit douche dragon! Let me shout out a curse word for a change!"
Then, Kujou lobbed a few arrows at the dragon. And Middonaito observed.
"Its weakness! Divine power!" Middonaito pointed out. Then, he saw his right arm shining. Turns out his staff is being enveloped in a divine power. Middonaito decided to make use of his newly acquired power. He jumps up into the air and takes a pose. "Divine Gust!"
Middonaito threw a yellow slash at the dragon, and it was very effective! The dragon is now leaking data bits! "Kurogane! Now!"
"Right!" Kurogane nodded while running around the now injured dragon. He readies his craziest skill yet.
"Ragequit: Rage Slashes!"
A rapid succession of attacks came from Kurogane's sword, now full of rage, anger, and acceleration. If Middonaito counted correctly...
"WHAT THE?! 50 ATTACKS A SECOND?! AND COUNTING!"
"Wow! I can't believe such attack speed was possible!" Kujou remarked.
"GRAHH! TAKE THIS, DOUCHE DRAGON!"
"RRAAGHK!" the dragon screamed in agony, before disappearing into bits of data. The party won the boss fight.
"*pant* *pant*"
[Epic BGM ends here XD]
"Yo, Kurogane, that was savage!" Middonaito said after a bit of silence.
"Hah, hah... Huh..."
"KYAAAA!"
Middo turned around, but saw that Kujou was just fine.
"THERE'S ANOTHER ONE!" Kurogane screamed.
?'s POV:
This dragon! It's unbeatable! It doesn't have any weakness whatsoever!
"GGRRAHH!"
"Help me!" it... just threw her up into the air! I can't catch her on time!
*running steps*
Huh?! I turn around, and saw three people that looked like they were battered up but survived.
One had black hair and brown eyes, a little blush on his cheeks, wearing a light blue checkered polo shirt with a handkerchief around his neck, what looks like a staff being held with his right hand, a little green sling bag with black and red highlights, navy blue pants, and brown shoes with a white accent. He managed to catch my friend, carrying her in a bridal manner. "Are you alright?"
My pink haired friend nods at him while blushing a little. Of course, she'd be embarrassed that a boy is carrying her. Bridal style, even.
Another boy entered the scene. He has jet black hair and crimson red eyes, that somehow reminds me of Lady Noire, wearing a gray overcoat (reminds me of mine) that looks like the sleeves are too long for him, but it appeared to be folded enough to have his hands be seen, a black undershirt, a strap on his left shoulder that seems like it's holding a sheath and two unfamiliar potions, while holding a sword on his right hand that seems like those swords that knights use, brownish, no, chestnut pants and black boots with brown accents.
"You won't be alive for long, prick number 2!" and wow, he's on par with Lady Blanc when it comes to anger.
"Don't forget about me, we still need to get him some divine arrows!" and now a blonde girl with red eyes, a reddish unzipped hoodie, a white undershirt, a long blue skirt and red shoes join in the fight. I noticed gel on her clothes, but I didn't pay much attention to it. She's wielding a sort of bow that's glowing like the sun. "Divine Shot!"
Wow, a barrage shot! And it seems like it's totally damaging it! Here's my chance! I bring out my hidden blades.
"Show me what you got, douche dragon!"
"Don't forget about the Wind Walker!"
"Divine Gust!"
"Take this, Divine Shot!"
"GGRRAH!" screamed the Ancient Dragon before dispersing to code.
"Yay, a win! Did we get him, Iffy?"
Thud!
After defeating the dragon, I noticed that the swordsman of the other party got knocked out. Too much energy spent, maybe...
"Is he gonna be okay?" I ask the one with the handkerchief around his neck.
"Well, I dunno... Mis-" then the guy looked at me like he was all so shocked to see me.
"Huh?" why is he looking at me with a funny face?
Kurogane's POV:
Ugh... What... Happened...
Oh right, those dragons... And me drinking that experimental potion again... I should really fix those side effects... Anyway... Where am I? This isn't the forest or my room...
I discovered that I was bandaged... Really tight around my chest, but I don't mind. My right arm seems to be bandaged as well. Great, no quests for a while...
I also noticed that I was lying on a purple bed. And now that I have a look around, the room is really accented with purple colors. I get up to find Middonaito and Kujou.
"Middo? Kujou?"
I take a look around the hallway. Ah, the Planeptune logo! Wait, am I in the Planeptune Basilicom? Nah, no way...
I make my way around. I think to myself, "Man, it does feel nice to rampage, but why can't I blurt a curse word without getting attacked?"
"It's my way of censoring..."
What the?! Middo?
Nah, couldn't be him.
Hm... Hey, there's the living room.
"Ow! Ow! Please don't tighten the bandage!"
Huh. Middo got injured too, huh?
"Aww... But you're my patient, and this is thanks for saving me, Mi-Mi..."
"Huh, Mi-Mi?" Middo reacted after hearing his new nickname.
"Yo, Middonaito!"
The guy seemed surprised to hear my voice. "Yo, Kurogane! You okay now?"
"Yeah, I think so... Hey, fill me in on what happened after I lost consciousness..."
Middo shrugs, "Okay, well..."
Flashback:
Chester's POV:
Thud!
Yo what? Oh, looks like Kurogane went all out too much. Ah...
"Is he gonna be ok?" a voice asked me. Must be those two girls we saved.
"Well, I dunno… Mis-"
My. God. Holy.
Is this real? Did... Did I just...
"Hey, what's wrong there?"
Long brown hair, check. Leaf-like ribbon, check. Green eyes, check. Black tank top, check. Blue oversized overcoat, check. Black shorts, check. Lots of phones with her, check.
Holy! It's IF!
Wait, if she's IF, then... (Sorry, when I saved the other girl, my vision was kinda blurry after all that running.)
Pink/peach hair, check. Black headband with a C, check. Orange eyes, check. Pink swe- YOU KNOW WHAT?! I saved Compa! Holy cr- Author... What did I tell you with encounter flags?!
Author Middonaito just shrugs his shoulders in ignorance. "Heh..."
Ugh... You despicable...
"Wow! Aren't these girls named IF and Compa, Middo-kun?"
"Ah, Kujou! Yes, and are you ok?"
She gives me a thumbs up, "I'm okey-dokey!" Man, how she makes me skip a beat...
"Ah, you three are injured! Let Nurse Compa take care of you!"
IF just sighs, "Just don't try to really tighten their bandages, killing off circulation while at it..."
I just laugh at the remark...
"Oh, so we heading to the hospital?" Kujou asked.
"Well, you seemed to come from the Lastation border, but that you're in Planeptune... Let's just take you to the Basilicom."
"I'll carry Kurogane..." I suggested. And now we walk our way to Planeptune.
End of flashback.
Kurogane's POV:
"We crossed borders?!"
"Yeah, turns out we were beside the Planeptune border, and once we set out to battle the second Ancient Dragon, we were already in Planeptune..."
"Huh. I still can't believe that two Ancient Dragons spawned out of nowhere. And the two were pretty nearby..."
Middo gestured me to calm down, "Let's not worry about that now, cause..."
Just as Middonaito was about to finish his sentence, Miss Compa had tightened the bandage on Middo's right arm... Oohh... That's gotta hurt bro!
"WAHHH!"
That, my friends, was a true scream of pain and suffering. I feel sorry for the poor guy. Not really... I'm enjoying his little comedic skit with Miss Compa...
Oh, that reminds me!
"Hi, I believe I haven't introduced myself. My name's Noir John Kurogane, the Ragequit Master of Lastation!" wait, was that supposed to be a title to be proud of?
"Hi there, Kuro! I'm Compa!" Kuro eh? Haven't heard of that nickname since forever.
"Oh, I already know you, Miss Compa, and also your friend, Miss IF, if you want to know..."
"Seems like the Blanc expy is up..." huh, who's that ditzy voice just now?
"Erm... Kurogane... If you're asking who said that, look..." Middo told me, pointing at the entrance. And I see a short lilac-haired girl, wearing D-pad clips, what seems to be a white and purple hoodie with a big circle as a zipper, which has an N symbol on it, blue and white striped stockings, and white and purple shoes with Planeptune's logo.
"You acquainted with her, Middo, pal?"
"Yeah, that's... Planeptune's goddess in human form..."
N-no way. The serious and mature Lady Purple Heart... has a childish and ditzy human appearance. Yep, I've seen it all. I've finished my bucket list. Big time. Oh wait, I still have that goal of seeing Lady Noire's human form.
"T-that's Lady Neptune herself? You kidding with me, Middo?"
Compa then entered our conversation, "No, Nep-Nep is our goddess..."
Wow. Wow.
"Are you mind blown, Mr. Looks-like-Noire?"
"Looks-like-Noire?" I look at Middo with a confused look. "Nah, don't mind Nep's comedic antics... Though it IS true that your hair and eye color give you an impression of a male Lady Noire..."
"Uh..." I sweatdrop.
"Don't worry, Kurogane, you'll get used to her sometime..."
I just noticed that IF and Kujou aren't around, so I ask, "Hey, now that I realize it, where are IF and Kujou?"
"Yeah, they went out to buy Kujou some replacement clothing... After that incident... Brr..." Middo shudders at the thought. What happened to Kujou that made Middo so scared?
Yep. How messed up can this storyline be...
"Hello everyone..."
Oh. Someone other than Lady Neptune is here.
Someone... small. Seems like she's floating on a floating book. Wait, I've seen her before... Isn't she...
"H-Histoire!" so Middo said it for me.
"Oh, seems like we have guests. Care to introduce yourselves?"
I clear my throat, "Ahem, I'm Noir John Kurogane, Lastation guild agent."
Middo also summed up his courage, "And I'm Middonaito..."
Miss Histoire looked shocked to hear Middo's name, and decided to look at him at different angles. "Oh, so you're the one Neptune talked about."
"Nep... talked about me?"
"Of course, who wouldn't talk about having an extradimensional friend?" Lady Neptune answered.
"Hm... I guess that's true..."
"We're back!"
I turn around to see Miss IF and Kujou at the entrance. "Ah, hey you two..."
"Author, please skip this... This is gonna be a bit boring..."
"What, Lady Nep-"
An hour later...
"Hey, Kurogane, I wanna ask you this..."
"Ask away, Middo."
Middo thought, and said, "Weren't your eyes brown back at the guild? Why is it crimson red now?" oh, this...
"You see..." I explain, "the red eyes are just a side effect of my experimental potion."
"Oh, also your f-bombing personality?"
"Yeah, I should really fix that," I scratch the back of my head.
"I don't think it's just that..."
I look at Miss Histoire and gave her a doubting look, "W-what do you mean, Miss Histoire?"
"Remember that we studied you three earlier?"
"Oh, right..."
Lady Neptune then looked somewhere and gave a thumbs up. She said, "See readers? Boring filler stuff skipped out... Efficient, right?" I sigh at her statement. "I still can't believe Lady Purple Heart's human form was this... Fourth wall breaky..."
Miss Histoire also sighed, then continued to explain, "It seems that your eye color change and personality change are actually recessive traits going dominant over your previous eye color and personality." Heredity? Oh wait... That makes sense...
"Well, that kinda makes sense, since my dad had crimson red eyes, and my mom was part of a biker gang until she settled down with Pops..." I reply, scratching the back of my head.
"Huh..." Middonaito answered.
"How about Ku-Ku and Mi-Mi?"
"You know, you don't have to call me Ku-Ku, Compa. My name's already a nickname," Kujou decided to say.
"And you can call me Mi-Mi or Middo, I don't mind."
"Ah, that reminds me! You two… what are your skills powered with?"
"Umm, divine power... Why?" answered Middo.
Miss Histoire went silent. She must be thinking about something. It makes me want to think too. Somehow, the Ancient Dragons we fought had no weakness... Until these two otherworlders decided to use their skills against them. How... How can an enemy with no weakness be possible? Unless...
We're dealing with someone here. Aw, sh... A villain... Of course...
Hmm... But I can't just jump into a little conclusion… I need evidence. Yep, first thing tomorrow: Investigate. I mean, my arm and body are jacked up, and I can't go on tedious quests now, can I?
I stand up. "I'm afraid I have to go now," well, I do have something I was supposed to do...
"Hmm? But you haven't healed up..."
"Nah, don't worry, Miss Compa, since..." I take out my fake chestplate armor.
"I'm supposed to be entering a little cosplay contest, anyway..."
I leave. Out of the door and skadoosh! I just hope this threat isn't what I think it is... And yikes! I gotta book it if I don't wanna be late!
Third Person POV:
A guy looks over the window of the Basilicom, focusing on Middonaito…
"His power... Yes..."
And he retreated back to the shadows.
Meanwhile, Kurogane is...
"The winner is Number 2!"
Kurogane's number 1... And guess who won...
A raven haired girl then stood up, claimed her prize, and left... Well, until Kurogane decided to talk to her...
He taps the noirette's right shoulder, "Ahem, are you, by any chance... Lady Noire?"
