Part 6:
The butterfly

Rin looked at his clock to see the date hadn't changed and throughout the day events happened exactly the same, only, they repelled Shadow Uni and Shadow Nepgear much faster, before Uni even woke up, and then Rin realized, that it wasn't just a dream.

Nepgear: Yeah, we did it.

Rin: Uh huh.

Yukio: Rin, something seems off about you today.

Rin: Oh its nothing.

Rin hears a noise outside.

Rin: Thinks: And as if on freakin' cue.

Rin: I'll go check it out.

Rin walked outside and saw Neptune approaching.

Rin: Ugh.

Neptune: Oh, hey Rin, whats shakin'?

Rin: Nothing.

Neptune: Ummm, can I see Nep jr.

Rin: Thinks: Can I see you not possessed?

Neptune: Ummm, hellooooo?

Rin: Oh, yeah sure.

So Rin brings Neptune inside to an excited Nepgear.

Nepgear: Hey sis!

Neptune: 'sup?

Nepgear ran to Neptune and hugged her.

Rin: Hey look, she did it this time..

Uni: Could you all keep it down.

Nepgear: Uni! Youre awake!

Uni: Yes, I am, now stop shouting.

Neptune: Well, she definitely IS Uni, so what do you wanna do.

Rin: I don't know, just wait I guess.

Yukio: Yeah, how about a nice meal, I'm sure we're all hungry.

Rin: Yeah. Yo! Ukobac! Usamuro! lets go!

Kuro: Wait for me Rin!

Rin: Righto.

Rin: Foods done!

Yukio: Wow, that was fast.

Rin: Yeah, I guess it was.

Neptune: I don't care, I'm hungry, lets eat.

Nepgear: Well, lets dig in.

So they ate the food with great gusto, and afterwards talked for a while.

Yukio: Well, we've all been talking for a while, but I have to go.

Rin: Where?

Yukio: Minor demon problem, most likely back in an hour, bye.

Rin: See ya.

Rin was the only one who noticed Neptune smirk.

Rin: Thinks: He thinks hes so clever, well I see around him.

Nepgear: You know what? Its getting kinda late, lets get some rest.

Uni: Good idea, although from what you've told me, Shadow Uni and Shadow Nepgear wont make it easy to sleep.

Neptune: Well, we should all be a little rested for it.

Rin: Shes got a good point.

So they all went to bed in they're own rooms and in the middle of the night Uni got out of bed.

Uni: What was that.

She walked out and went to the cafeteria where she heard the noise, she saw neptune sitting on one of the tables.

Uni: Why are you up? You get hungry?

Neptune: Oh I don't think so, how interesting for you to ask.

Uni: Thinks: What is she talking about?

Uni: Anyway we should get to bed.

Neptune: No, I'm fine, you go.

Uni: Ummm alright.

Uni walked out into the hallway and looked behind her, once again she saw Neptune.

Uni: Thinks: Is something wrong with her?

Suddenly dark tentacles came out of the walls and bound Uni.

Neptune: You fool, you knew something was off, yet you did nothing.

Uni: What are you talking about?

Neptune: Lets just say, this little fumble just cost your friends their lives.

Neptune hit Uni in the neck and she dropped unconcious.

Neptune: Ugh, I need to take care of the body this time.

In the morning Yukio still hadn't returned and Rin got up.

Rin: Guess I'm the only one up.

Neptune: Sup'

Rin Thinks: Oh, guess not.

Rin: Nothing, why are you up so early?

Neptune: Oh no reason.

Nepgear: Hello.

Neptune: Hey Nep jr.

Nepgear: Hey.

Rin: Hey Nepgear.

Neptune: Hey I have an idea, why don't we take a walk?

Nepgear: Maybe we should wait for Uni.

Neptune: Right.

Histoire: How much longer will they be gone?

IF: I don't know, but I need to get to work, oh yeah, and 5pb. Is starting her tour of Planeptune today, so we'll have support.

Histoire: Good.

IF: Alright, see ya.

Nepgear: I don't get it, wheres Uni.

After Uni didn't appear they checked her room but found her missing.

Neptune: Maybe she went for a walk, we could, and when we get back she might be here.

Nepgear: Yeah, maybe.

So they left and started to walk down a trail into the forest.

Rin: Thinks: I don't get it, shes clearly possessed, yet she hasn't made a move yet…

Neptune: Hey Nep jr.? You wanna she something cool?

Rin: Thinks: Wait a second.

Nepgear: Sure.

Rin: Thinks: Oh no.

Rin tackles Nepgear out of the way of a swinging sword coming from Neptune.

Neptune: DAMMIT, THE OBLIVIOUS LITTLE SISTER WAS SUPPOSED TO GET HER HEAD CHOPPED OFF, but no, the little goody-goody read the signs.

Nepgear: What the goodness does she mean Rin.

Rin: Cut the tension Satan, I've known its you this whole time.

Neptune: Guilty.

Once again Neptune transformed and burst into blue flame.

Nepgear: Rin, whats happening?

Rin: Your sister was possessed by Satan, so do your best to get her out of it.

Nepgear: What!?

Neptune: Yes, as he said I am Satan, and I possessed your ignorant sister.

Nepgear: This cant be.

Rin: Its alright, I'll take care of this for now.

Nepgear: Okay, thanks.

Neptune: Shall we get started?

IF: Good, busted another, there cant be many more who still cling to Arfoire, right?

Falcom: Indeed, I'm sure they'll all be gone soon.

IF: Anyway, as always thanks for the help.

Falcom: Its alright, see ya.

IF: See ya later.

IF: Thinks: Well, I better get back now.

IF starts to walk back to the basilicom

Rin: Come on, is that the best you got?

Neptune: I'm just getting started.

Rin: Good.

So they continued their battle with Nepgear watching in the background

Nepgear: Thinks: How could this have happened? Neptune would never— Whoa, déjà vu, anyway, she wouldn't do this, its impossible, I guess Satan has a stronger will… No, no one has a stronger will than my sister.

Nepgear: You hear me! No one!

Neptune: What the!?

Nepgear runs straight at Neptune drawing her sword and stabbing it through Neptunes shoulder.

Nepgear: Thinks: If I paralyze her, only her will will be left, no body to hold her in. I just have too…

Nepgear: You hear me in there Neptune! Wake up!

Neptune: Ha! You're wasting your time!

Neptune kneed Nepgear in the stomach and punched Rin as he ran at her.

Neptune: In fact…

She took Nepgears sword out of her shoulder and threw it aside clenching the fist Nepgear had attempted to cut the nerves to.

Neptune: She'll never come back.

Nepgear: No, she'll come back, Rin cover me a minute!

Rin: Right!

Rin ran at Neptune parrying every fireball coming his way

Neptune: You think she'll save Neptune?

Rin: Of course, Neptune will come back.

Neptune grabbed Rin wrist and started punching his back.

Neptune: Got you.

Rin: Dammit, Nepgear where did you go.

A gunshot sounded behind Neptune the bullet piercing her side.

Yukio: Rin!

Neptune: What!?

Rin: Yukio, shes been possessed by Satan!

Yukio: Oh, so that's why I had to shoot you, and it was you who sent those ghouls wasn't it?

Neptune: Yeah, but she still wont come back like you.

Yukio: Yeah right.

Yukio shoots an entire cartridge to get Rin out of her grasp.

Rin: Yukio, be careful, we cant kill Neptune.

Yukio: She is a goddess possessed or not.

Rin: Right, but Nepgears gonna do something to—

Nepgear: Hey! Neptune!

Neptune: What!?

Nepgear ran around Neptune in a circle dodging several fireballs holding something in her hand.

Rin: What is she doing?

Nepgear: Catch!

Nepgear threw what she was holding and Neptune caught it.

Neptune: Here's a tip, don't tell someone you're throwing something at them.

Nepgear: How about you look at it!

Neptune looked at the object to see it was a small cup of pudding with purple writing on the foil covering saying: "Nep's"

Neptune: No P-ko, that's…mine.

Neptune was again in the room made of energy peacefully sleeping when her dream woke her.

Neptune: No it says "Nep's" right on the—

Neptune sat up and blinked a few times.

Neptune: Where am I?

Rin: Come on!

Rin swung his sword at Neptune but Neptune dodged every blow.

Neptune: You better stop trying or I will mess you up.

Yukio: Go!

Everyone attacked her from all directions

Neptune: Oh crap!

Nepgear: Listen! Neptunes speech pattern is coming back! It worked!

Neptune: Whats going on!

Neptune: Am I… in my own mind?

Neptune looked around and as if through a window saw Nepgear, Rin and Yukio.

Neptune: Nep jr!

Neptune started running towards it, but was blocked by the twisted version of her own HDD.

Satan: You're not going anywhere.

Neptune: Yeah right, I'm going to see my little sis, so back off.

Satan: Oh yeah? And how are you going to get around me?

Neptune: Like… this?

Satan: Ha! Good luck trying to trigger HDD, it wont work.

Neptune: Fine, I'll just beat you like this.

Neptunes sword appeared in front of her and she grabbed it.

Neptune: Bring it.

Nepgear: Her defense is slacking, get her!

Rin: Why.

Nepgear: Then she wont be able to focus on the battle with Neptune.

Nepgear ran at her and kicked her stomach.

Satan flew against the wall and was instantly rushed by Neptune and barely got out of a stab to the face.

Neptune: Just give up already.

Satan: Never!

Nepgear: Oh yeah, well then we'll just get her back!

A laser shot and hit Neptune directly.

Uni: Next time make sure the bonds are secure, 'kay, crazy-face?

Neptune: I got you this time!

Neptune ran straight at Satan and slashed through his form making him vanish.

Neptune: I'm coming little sis.

Neptune: Oh yeah, well now I'm back at full focus, so just drop dead already.

Nepgear: What!? Did Neptune… Lose?

Neptune: quiet the contrary little sis, but, hes still in most of control here. Oh you shut up!

Nepgear: Did you hear that! Its her!

Rin: Now we got this.

Yukio: Its time to fall.

Uni: In 3.

Rin: 2

Nepgear: ONE!

They all ran at her delivering several blows.

Neptune: No! I cant keep a hold… of… her…

Neptune collapsed on the ground, the blue flames faded and she transformed in front of them to her normal form, but something was wrong.

Rin: What the?

Nepgear: Is something wrong with her?

Yukio: No, she'll be fine, but…

Yukio turned her over so her front was facing them, Yukio opened her mouth and brushed her hair out of the way, revealing pointed teeth and pointed ears.

Yukio: Most likely, from now on, she'll be… Half demon.
