(Author's Note)
Hello everyone, so I Believe I found the reason for the updating kinda messing up.
Rule of thumb, wait at least 24 hours before uploading another chapter.
Anyways onto the reviews. Also BTW, 30 reviews. Sorry I'm just ecstatic.
Anyways to you never knows: uhh... I don't see that many of a reason plutia has calmed down enough.
"Yep."
To tehg2000: thanks, also I had Bryce clean it up.
Yeah and F*ck you too.
Anyways. With that I'm hoping to have this up at the end of the day but.. knowing my luck and how long I want this... oh well.
But enough beating around the bush. Let's get the chapter started!
Location Updated: Planeptune Basilicom
POV 1st
As I awoke from that weird dream I had, I smelled..
"Pancakes?" I asked sniffing the air. "How am I even smelling them anyways?"
Allow me to explain, my room apparently has a bad smell to it, so my nose in a sense 'broke' so I could sleep at night and spend as much time in there as I do.
Anyways while I was getting dressed, I noticed something I wished was a regular occurrence in real life. You see I has started to grow a bit of a pudge around my waist. Yeah being 215 pounds at the age of 15 wasn't fun. Now instead of fat I had a bit more of a muscular frame. Nothing too noticeable but a huge improvement.
And then it dawned on me... who put me in these pajamas while I was passed out?
"Morning Bryce." Said Plutia
"Morn-guh!" I was in the middle of saying something when I felt an impact at my solar plexis.
Flop!
I fell face first on the ground coughing up a fit, trying to catch my breath.
"Huff Huff Huff. Who... did...*Gasp* that?" I asked through pained breath.
"P-Ko! What have I told you ab- oh wait it's just Bryce nevermind." Said Neptune
"Yeah well forget you Neptune" I say my anti-swear mod activating.
Neptune blows me a raspberry. I look at the toddler in front of me, small child, yellow with a tint of orange hair, and dressed in bee themed clothes. This ladies, gentlemen & those of unspecified genders is Peashy otherwise known as P-Ko by Neptune.
"So who's this bundle of joy?" I asked semi-sarcastically.
"That's Peashy. She may look young... well she is but she's actually a CPU." Said Mini-Histy as she floated in.
"Peashy huh? Can we start over? Without you headbutt in me in the solar plexus?" I ask hoping that doesn't happen again.
"Hmmm, okay." Said Peashy. I can't... really get a good read of her. Than again she has a mind of a what, 3-4 year old?
"Anyways I smell pancakes, who's making?" I ask.
"That would be Compa." Said girls voice from the couch behind me.
"And who might you be?" I ask
"Names, IF. Like I. Then F." Says the newly titled IF.
"Nice to meet you IF, I'm Bryce." I greet.
"Wait... who's Compa?" I ask
"That would be her." Said Plutia
I look over to the kitchen area and see a girl who's *ahem* gifted. What? I have priorities dammit!
"Oh Bryce is awake." Says Compa
"So how long have you known my name?" I ask out of curiosity.
"Plutia told us. She was correcting Neptune." Said Compa.
"And by chance what did Neptune first say I was?" I ask feeling an anime tick mark appear on my head.
IF leaned over to my ear and started whispering. "Well she was partial through saying Bastard." She said.
SNAP!
Now I'm not going to lie. I'm pretty sure me snapping was VERY audible.
"Neptune? Is this true?" I ask menacingly as a dark aura appeared around me.
"Uh... No?" She answers with hesitation and uncertainty.
"I have 3 words for you." I say turning to her
I instantaneously run at her. Which then follows with her giving Chace.
As soon as I'm sure we're out of earshot of Peashy I yell " RUN B*TCH RUN!"
After a good amount of time chasing Neptune, Neptune chasing me, & Iris Heart chasing us both. (don't ask) we arrived back with me ending up giving Plutia a piggy back ride.
"We're back" I say in exhaustion. Because as soon as we enter the room I instantly dropped Plutia onto Neptune, who I have had enough of today, and fell on top of the couch in exhaustion.
"Okay everyone pancakes are ready." Said Compa from the kitchen.
"IF I'll make you regret this!" Said Neptune.
"And how will you do that?" Asked IF smugly
"Don't make me add eggplants to your meal." Said Neptune trying to be threatening
"Both of you get to the table before I make Compa add eggplants to both of your meals." I say.
"You wouldn't dare." Said Neptune trying to be intimidating
"Try me" I shot back
And so for the next 15 seconds me and Neptune have a staring contest. Then Neptune blinks.
"Yes!" I said in triumph.
"Can we just eat now?" Asks IF
(One breakfast scene later)
"So how exactly did you come up with a threat to Neptune involving eggplants so quickly?" Asks Compa
"2 ways, 1 how she said eggplants and 2 her reaction afterwards." I answer
*knock knock*
"I wonder who that is?" Said IF
"I'll get it." Said Plutia
"Hello Plutia."
"Hello Vert, what brings you here?"
Vert walks in, as she does she spots me and flaunts of her chest a bit. My thoughts at the time we're 'she's probably the one who GAVE those gifts to compa' I know right? Classy.
"So who might this be?" Asks Vert, her question directed towards me
Before Neptune can say anything I introduce myself "Names Bryce, and I've seen better." Classy Bryce, Classy.
Vert looks at me before my implications dawn on her, then her expression turns into one of shock.
Answering her unasked question I shoot a quick glance at Plutia. She looks at me like I'm an idiot. Well before I give her a look that makes her understand what I mean.
Hey look Iris Heart Is really hot okay. Don't judge me, you all were thinking it when you first saw her.
"So Vert what brings you here?" Asks Mini-Histy
"Oh I just felt it's been awhile since i've seen Plutia and so I'm here." She answers.
"*Gasp* so you were the one at the end of the end credits scene 2 caters ago!" Says Neptune.
"Going to ignore the 4th wall breaking from Neptune and ask what are we going to do today." I say trying not to get a small headache. Key word: TRYING
"Well Planeptune's shares are fine as of now, and considering Bryce is still getting used to all this, I think a day off is fine." Said Mini-Histy.
"No offense but that didn't answer my question." I say back
"Hmm... well I did bring over some games for us to play." Says Vert holding up a bag of games. "Hey Neptune you still have the Nepulus rift right?"
"Uhh Nep Jr. Is still working some kinks out with it."Said Neptune
"So I've been meaning to ask, what's your story?" Asked Vert
"Me? Well I guess you could just call me a... passerby." I answer wanting to see if that would work
"I highly doubt it." Said IF
"I actually don't know why I'm still here." I answer honestly. No seriously the thought never occurred to me. Why am I here anyways.
"We'll explain in a later chapter." Answers Neptune.
"Anyways Vert, you said you brought some games?" I asked wanting to see some games. Also hoping this world's equivalent of Halo was here.
"Yes, give me a second." Said Vert
And so a full lineup of games were on display. I found what looked like a metroid game, but I wasn't sure. There was one game though that interested me.
"Rock Idol 2?" I asked. To me this seemed like rock hero 2 but from the looks of it, custom song tracks to boot. Kinda like guitar hero 2.
"Hmm something caught your interest Bryce?" Asked Plutia
"Hey Vert, do you have all the stuff for this." I ask.
"I do... Bryce are you going to put a show o for us?" Asks Vert.
"Something of the sort. More of an idea." I said "Also this says it had custom song tracks on it. How do I do that?" I ask
Before she can answer a knock on the door rings out. I go to answer it. As I open the door a Giant package awaits me. The weird thing is it's for me. So as I grab it and bring it inside, I kick the door shut.
As the others wait patiently for me, I open the package. Inside was the add on from my blueprints I Literally traded RAW FISH for.
So a Glove that had a sort of metallic look to it. Sorta like A toned down version of samus's grapple beam from prime 3 corruption but on the right hand and In all gunmetal.
The other was a giant thing of metal. I attached my sword to it and some green lines lit up on it. Okay then.
And lastly a cable that hooked up my phone to the console.
Holy convenience batman!
Anyways as I hooked up my phone, I downloaded the song I wanted to try.
And done.
As I get up from my work, I see Neptune has set up the guitar, mic stand, bass, and drum set.
"Who wants first dibs?" Asks Vert.
"Well Bryce was the one who asked to do this. He can have the honors." Said Compa
"Alright let's get this started!" I say as my mark glows.
I split into 3 and each of me grab an instrument.
I have the mic and guitar
Bryce 2 has the bass
And Bryce 3 had the drums.
Going to custom songs I click the one I thought was a good starting point.
(Play Let Me Try- Natewantstobattle)
As the first notes I hit them flawlessly. Okay here go the song.
You and I, we both know well
I couldn't do this by myself
And every day it's all the same
You picked me up when down I fell
But I'm still standing through and through
I know exactly what to do
I'll give it everything I got
Although I'm not stronger than you
At this point Peashy, IF and Compa started getting onto it.
But I'll be your shield I can be your lion
I'll dry your eyes if I see you cryin'
Believe in me
And I won't let you down
But now we've come so far
I know just who we are
And we shine brighter than any gem
Between us and the sun
Now it's just you and me
Like it was meant to be
And I'll protect you I'll defend you
If you let me try
We'll stay together now and forever
Just let me try
Plutia, Neptune and Vert had gotten into this at around this point as well. Plutia looked to be enjoying this a lot more than I thought she would.
You and I yeah we both know
We couldn't do this on our own
You say you're fighting for my mother
But won't see how much I've grown
But I can't believe everything that I'm told
I'll fight until the end while I'm young and when I'm old
I'm getting tired keeping myself like this. The fact I'm still pulling this off perfect is amazing to me.
But now we've come so far
I know just who we are
And we shine brighter than any gem
Between us and the sun
Now it's just you and me
Like it was meant to be
And I'll protect you I'll defend you
If you let me try
We'll stay together now and forever
Just let me try
Stay with me
Fight with me
Victory's abound
Now we've got this
You can't stop us
And I won't let you down
I know you never asked to be made
But now we've come so far
I know just who we are
And we shine brighter than any gem
Between us and the sun
But now we've come so far
I know just who we are
And we shine brighter than any gem
Between us and the sun
Now it's just you and me
Like it was meant to be
And I'll protect you I'll defend you
If you let me try
We'll stay together now and forever
Just let me try
(Song ends)
As the song finishes I feel myself form back into one. As I use the mic stand as support to stand, Plutia comes over to help me to the couch.
"So... how'd I do?" I ask exhaustion clearly showing on my face.
"You did great." Said Plutia
"I gotta admit that was pretty good." Said IF
"It was only a game." Said Neptune ruining the moment
"..." Everyone and I do mean Everyone In the room looked at Neptune.
"What?" Asked Neptune
"Yeah I think I'm done for half an hour. I'll just watch." I say starting to get comfy in my seat.
As the hours past, my mind floated to the man I met in the random ass forest.
Tehg. I wonder. If he was real... was the power I used to save him also real?
I let those thoughts go for now.
The rest of the day we spent playing games.
