"Uh…Compa, are you sure you didn't do your bondages again?" Neptune asked with a sweat drop as Naruto shook his head at the sight before him. Lying in a hospital bed was Storm all wrapped up like a mummy, with eyeholes and a gap for his mouth. "They're not bondages, they're bandages!" Compa insisted as Neptune looked skeptical. "Looks can be deceiving~!" she quipped as Naruto nodded his head in agreement. "Hmmm….Mmmm!" the wrapped up boy shouted as his body was squirming underneath the cast of bandages, and sounded really angry. "Now, now Mr. Storm, if you get out of there not fully healed, you might break a leg!" Compa chided as the sounds of angry grunts from within the cast echoed loud and clear through the entire hospital room.
"Wow, he's pissier than Pissty." Neptune noted as Naruto shrugged. "Well who wouldn't be when you wake up like that?" he added as the two nodded their heads in agreement as Storm was probably swearing underneath the cast. Then the cast began to crack as an explosion of light erupted as out came one Naruto 'Storm' Uzumaki as he gasped for breath and glared at the three menacingly. "Who the hell was responsible for the bondages?" he demanded in a cold, calm tone. "Oh, I am, and I'm Compa. It's nice to meet you Mr. Storm." Compa replied as Storm blinked. "Oh, likewise-wait a minute, where the hell am I!?" he snapped as Naruto placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Simple, yada yada yada…" he began.
"Blah, bladidi blah…" Neptune finished.
"I see, so I was pulled out of my dimension by this 'author' as a special DLC Character to help the Naruto of this universe, namely you, capture spirits that have ran away from Hell and have hidden within the hearts of girls, and in order to draw them out, you make said targets fall in love with you. And currently, I'm in a world that parodies the video game industry itself as four goddesses rule this world." Storm nodded as Compa and outside of the hospital room, both versions of Noire blinked. "…He actually understood that." Future Noire commented dryly. "Same thing happened when we went to face Vert when Nepgear came into the frame." Past Noire added as the two counterparts mentally agreed it must be a blond thing to understand words that no one would understand.
"So question, why the hell can't I remember most of what happened back at my world?" Storm asked as Naruto merely shrugged as Neptune answered it. "It's a natural plot convention for an amnesiac protagonist or playable character to join in on a major mission in saving the world. Only in due time under various circumstances, will they get their memory back and everyone learns of a shocking truth that'll shake their foundations. But if the readers have been paying attention to your story, then they wouldn't be shocked by a few of your actions you committed." Neptune explained as Storm looked at her warily. "For some reason, I feel like you did something related to the fourth wall." He commented.
That was when the door opened, revealing both Noires as the Future Noire glared at Storm with anger. "…What?" he asked as she pointed at him. "Really? Falling from the sky and you chose to land on me!? Couldn't you have literally landed -anywhere- else?" she demanded as Storm blinked. "Eh?" Storm asked as Future Noire's face started getting red with anger. "Look, if you want me to apologize for something I have no recollection of, how about a fight?" Storm asked as Naruto grinned, Compa shaking her head 'no' and was telling him to rest from his fall. Neptune looked excited and Past Noire had an inkling feeling somehow this was going to get messy.
"Fine, I'll make you pay, with interest." Future Noire smirked as she turned and left. "…She's so screwed." Naruto chuckled, gaining everyone's attention. "She thinks he's just another human with skills like other Makers, but no, he's much more than -that-. Isn't that right, Shinobi L'Cie? Or should I say, the Storm of the Revolution?" Naruto asked with a knowing tone as Storm merely smiled calmly. "I'm going to knock that girl off her high horse, painfully." He replied. It gave Past Noire chills, and even she had pride in her in combat realized there is a vibe he had that screamed 'Danger!'
"Ah-"Storm paused as he realized something. "Where is my gear at?" he asked, scratching the back of his head as Naruto filled him in on how various 'Player' people have their own method of summoning the «Menu» screen. "Okay, so like this right?" Storm asked, swiping his right index finger downwards as a white menu popped up with various things on it. "Ooohhh…the «SAO» menu method; classy with a capital K!" Neptune chirped as Storm pressed «Equipment». Then he smirked, "Well then, time to head to the coliseum eh?" he asked as he began equipping his gear as his hospital outfit was turned into something else.
*Planeptune Coliseum*
"Planeptune proudly presents a duel of the century featuring two people who've just met, and are now up to gut each other!" the announcer exclaimed as the audience roared with glee. "Now here are our contestants! Nobody touches his beloved imouto-chan! The Sis-con Banchō: Storm Uzumaki!" the announcer called out as Storm walked in as people took in his appearance. While he looked like Naruto, but did not wear a Konoha headband, or anything that resembled shinobi gear. Instead, he had a white short sleeved long coat with flame motifs on the bottom with a long red cape coming from the left shoulder blade, a black turtle neck shirt with a zipper, blue pants with a red pouch on his upper left thigh, brown leather boots, blue tanned leather gloves with brass knuckle guards, and a green pauldron with several yellow strips, signifying a rank of sorts. "Sis-con, really? Couldn't you be more creative than that at least?" Storm asked with a shrug like the insult didn't bother him.
"Her pride and loneliness makes her very tsun but she's as sweet as a dere. The Lonely Tsundere Cosplayer: Noire-chan~!" the announcer finished as Noire's face turned red at that. "W-Who are you calling lonely?!" she demanded angrily and greatly embarrassed at the title given to her. This caused many people where are well aware of this fact to deadpan at that obvious answer. She felt a pressure of the intent to kill aimed at her as Storm summoned his «Blazefire Saber +3» and pointed the blade at her. Noire narrowed her eye and equipped her «Silver Sword» and pointed it at her opponent.
"Showtime, now let's see who's the best." Storm began as he began to take his battle stance. Noire took hers as the two opponents made eye contact. The minute they did, Noire's very soul was pierced by Storm's. They held so much bloodlust in them, she thought she was facing a monster in his place, but what was worse, was the insanity in them. How this boy kept his cool while having that much of a mental problem disturbed her greatly. But she is the CPU of Lastation, the one with the most Shares, so she should be able to beat him in HDD if it comes down to it. After all, he is just another human.
How horribly wrong she is with her pride.
The minute they charged, the minute their blades clashed against each other, Noire was taken aback but the power within the swing of Storm's sword. It was beyond any normal human's; it was more like a super soldier's if there was a monster type that existed. "What's wrong goddess, can't handle little ol' me?" he mocked as Noire narrowed her eyes and forced the deadlock to break apart as they skidded away from each other.
"Amazing folks! These two are on equal terms in raw strength, and Noire-chan isn't even using HDD. Could her stubborn pride bring her to her defeat though?" the announcer asked; as people started to take note how the male voice was sounding feminine. Not to mention the addition of the 'chan' suffix.
Storm charged this time, his blade gleaming as he slashed at her horizontally, which she blocked, but what she didn't expect, was her legs being swept from under her as she was pinned down by his foot on her stomach and blade impaled by her cheek, barely touching skin. "In a real battle you'd already be dead, come at me with the intent to kill. To hold back is nothing more than insulting." He chided her. This got on Noire's nerves as people gasped at how the goddess of Lastation was being pinned down as Naruto merely shook his head.
"He's a real veteran of war. Compared to the Console War you, and the other three Nep. Those battles pale in comparison to the horrors he's fought." He spoke with an even and serious tone, something that goes against his laidback, gamer personality that would break the laws of physics and logic on a whim. "You know, from the way you're talking right now, it sounds like this is a scripted battle for Noire." Neptune noted as she bit into some cotton candy and then biting into an ice cream sandwich. "That's because it is. Did you see her current level?" Naruto asked as Neptune blinked and did a spit take.
"Nepu! Her level is down, way down! Why is it at level 8?!" she exclaimed, causing everyone nearby to take notice. "Question, has she been doing any level grinding since the last time there was a threat to Gamindustri?" Naruto asked as Neptune shrugged. "That would be a no," spoke the Oracle of Lastation: Kei. "She was swallowed up in so much paper work, and doing whatever she does in her room in her free time, to ever go out and make sure her level remains at top notch. Sad to say, even Uni has higher levels than her."
*snap*
The sounds of a blade being snapped in two regained everyone's attention as Noire's «Silver Sword» was broken into two and then shattered into polygons as Storm pointed his sword at her. "Are you going to take me serious or not?" he asked, very calmly. Noire's eyebrow twitched, he was mocking her when she was doing her best in her human form and he says that she's still not taking him seriously!? He was really mocking her skills! "Ah mou! Fine, you asked for this!" Noire growled as she activated HDD and transformed into her goddess form Black Heart. "I'll show you the true power of a goddess!" she exclaimed as her blade appeared at her side as it glowed in rainbow radiance. "Torneraid Sword!" she called out as with a swipe of her blade, a crescent of energy charged at Storm who raised his blade to block it as it collided with him, causing an explosion.
Smoke was slashed away by Storm as he appeared a bit dirty as a part of his face was injured from the fight as Black Heart smirked at the damage, only for it to disappear when the injury healed itself. "Heh, so this is the extent of your power relying only on shares. Too bad," he told her as he charged at her with renewed vigor as Black Heart's eyes widened at the sudden increase in speed as she barely got on the defensive and began parrying his attacks. His blade glowed white as something happened. "«Blitz»" he commanded and with a spin, his blade unleashed a strong blow that forced Black Heart to fly up as Storm looked at her.
She dived, her blade posed to impale as Storm's weapon was coated in electricity as Black Heart unleashed a scream as Storm swung his blade, activating «Sparkstrike» as the two weapons clashed as lightning danced around the two opponents. Storm merely smiled nonchalantly as Black Heart merely gritted her teeth as she was repelled by Storm as the lightning died down. "Not bad goddess, but now your pride must be humbled, for there is a rule in life." He spoke as Black Heart charged as Storm avoided the slash as he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her close as his blade was at her neck. "There is always someone better than you." Was his blunt reply; before any reply was made, Storm did something completely unexpected that shocked everyone as the entire arena was silent.
He kissed her, right on the lips.
Black Heart blinked a few times, processing what was happening as her face was starting to turn red as she felt something go right into her mouth. That was when steam started escaping from her ears as she realized it was a French kiss and that his-
"Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah…!" Black Heart screeched as she got out of his grip and comically flew backwards. "Wha-Who…Why!?" she demanded as the entire place was silent, completely taken aback at what they saw. Even Naruto and Neptune, two comical geniuses of their respective worlds were at a loss at such unpredictability known as Storm. "What? It's not the first time something like this happened? That is unless…." Storm trailed off, with a hint of amusement in his tone. "That was your fist kiss?" he asked.
"Die!" Black Heart exclaimed, all her composure loss as her steaming red face held the answer. She was going to use her «Lace Ribbons» and put him in a world of pain. Storm merely chuckled a bit before his shadow extended towards her. If she had kept her composure from the kiss, she would have taken notice of it until it was too late. Once the shadows connected to hers, her body felt ill as Storm charged at her and head-butted her in the forehead, sending her into a daze as she heard his chuckle. "Time to teach you a lesson." His voice whispered in her ear as she recovered and looked down to see a fox made of shadows reach out and drag her into darkness.
"You act all high and mighty, but when you lose, you're just a sore loser." Storm's voice mocked as she slammed into the 'ground' of the place. As she looked up, she saw a black fox with five tails swishing around, covered with malevolent red fissures over its body as it stood upright as it held her sword in reverse grip in its hand. She saw it, her blade corrupted by something dark as the fox grinned and held it high, charging up the finishing blow. "Rupture her, Magatsu Arashi!" Storm's voice called out as the fox brought the blade down.
KO!
"How's that?" Storm asked as he sheathed his blade and high fived the black fox as it faded into his shadow as Noire was in human form and unconscious as they were both back in the coliseum.
"Oh how cruel…! Noire-chan has been defeated by the infamous «Instant Kill Move»! This one is known as «Wraith of Yomi», sending any opponent into a dark realm where a manifestation of evil ends them with their own weapon!" the announcer explains as Naruto shook his head. "Told you she'd lose." He said calmly. "Um, is she okay? It's not Game Over for Lastation's CPU right?" Neptune asked, concerned for Noire.
"Relax, I held back on that move, though she would wake up with nightmares every once in a while." Storm replied, knowing his voice is somehow being broadcasted to the audience as he proceeded to walk up to the unconscious Noire and carry her bridal style out of the coliseum and to the nearest hospital. "Well, this concludes the saddening match. I, Anonydeath, am proud to be your announcer. Bu-bye sweeties!"
"Damn…Now that was a curb stomp battle if I ever laid eyes on one!" Sasuke exclaimed as he watched the CPU of Lastation get defeated by another Naruto from another world. "No fair! How come fanfic Narutos always gotta be so overpowered!?" the Bold Text demanded. "Well, fans hate Canon Naruto because he's stupid, which is of course the anime version, not sure of the manga one." The Underline Text replied. "Oh hey, you guys aren't text boxes anymore!" Sasuke noted as the two Texts laughed at that. "Sweet! This is an improvement, and the fanfiction edition of Deadpool's comic text boxes!" Bold Text exclaimed.
"Sad to say, we can't get enough action with Sasuke. What can we Fourth Wall Breakers do?" Underline Text asked. "How 'bout do what we do best, break the fourth wall and comment on other things involving the Naruto fanfiction?" Sasuke suggested. "Works with me, so what the hell is with the Sasuke Bashing and Sakura Bashing? Funny at first now boring and repetitive as hell!" Bold Text asked/demanded as Sasuke sighed at the most painful reminder of what he was in other fanfiction.
"People just don't like the two of us, especially Westerners due to circumstances. Mine is because I sought to avenge my clan, restoring family honor doesn't seem to be relatable to western folk unless they brushed up on Asian culture and traditions. But I could be wrong and it's because Canon Sasuke is a complete jerk and that's just it. Sakura is simple, she yells and a punch Naruto a lot in the anime version, and in both anime and manga, is not even acting like a proper heroine." Sasuke replied with a shrug. "Well at least the series will sadly end next week. Every good series must come to an end." Underline Text spoke. "True, but it won't stop fans of the series from writing more fanfics about it!" Bold Text replied cheerfully.
"What an odd person…" Vert spoke quietly at the bound Sasuke who was inside of an asylum and was being constantly monitored. He was talking nonsense until she noticed the text patterns on screen were acting funny. She turned to the news as she began sipping her tea, only to do a spit take at the news of Noire losing to a human one on one in HDD. This was something that's shaking up all of Gamindustri at the moment.
"Well the author is so totally gonna make things chaotic with this other Naruto in the frame, that's for sure." Sasuke mused. "Totally! Who's the bigger Naru-pimp, Naruto or Storm?" Bold Text asked. "That is going to be an interesting challenge, and you know what…" Underline Text said trailing off.
"Find out in the next several chapters!" Sasuke and the two altered Texts exclaimed.
