Neptune and Nepgear simply looked at their finished pile of work, both of them happy that they were finally done and could get some R&R.
“So Nep Jr. what do you wanna do first? Play some video games? Eat some snacks? Watch cartoons?” Neptune asked.
“Well… I just happened to hear that Histoire finished cleaning the kitchen floor…” Nepgear smiled.
“Ah. So… a little floor skatin’ contest again? So, what’s our bet this time?” Neptune asked.
“The loser has to be the winner’s servant for the rest of the day,” Nepgear responded.
“You’re on!”
With that, the two hurried for the kitchen, now only in their socks, smiling and ready to get started, with Nepgear readying a timer.
“Okay Onee-chan, you start off. Ready… GO!” Nepgear stated, with Neptune moving off, skating around the kitchen.
With this, Neptune decided to show off, spinning around like a ballerina, but she eventually got dizzy and lost balance. But she continue skating around, jumping for a few moments, before she slipped by a chair, falling flat on her butt.
“Owchies…” Neptune whimpered.
“Five minutes, two seconds.” Nepgear stated.
“Aww… I lasted a lot shorter than our best record of eight minutes twenty seconds,” Neptune stated, as she got up and switched positions with Nepgear to do their little contest.
“Okay, here goes,” Nepgear muttered before she started skating like a pro olympic skater!
She managed to move around swiftly and gracefully like a dancer, before eventually actually incorporating some dance moves into her skating, such as a tango and salsa. She eventually stopped and posed gracefully, with Neptune in total shock at the time.
“Ten minutes, forty-two seconds…” Neptune gawked, “And you didn’t even fall over once…”
“I win,” Nepgear giggled.
“Ah mou~” Neptune whined.
“And you know what that means, Onee-chan,” Nepgear giggled, “Now then… for the rest of the day, I’d like for you to call me your Mistress, okay?”
“You do that everytime you win, you know that?” Neptune blinked, before seeing the glare her sister was giving her. Neptune gave an annoyed sigh, rolling her eyes for a moment, before clearing her throat, “I apologize for sounding rude, Mistress. But I must ask… how did you get so good?”
“Oh. I take skating lessons with Ram and Rom the second, third and fourth weekends of the month. I do it so Blanc can have a break from them every so often… I owed her a favor, and yea,” Nepgear explained.
Neptune gave a small sigh, before wondering something.
“Well… if you do it on those weekends, what do you do on the first weekend?” Neptune wondered.
“Goof off with you. And it’s not every month, and the weekends occasionally rotate, we primarily go on the second weekend every month. But we also go on other weekends if we can. Rom and Ram are really good, and I wish Blanc could come and see them sometime…” Nepgear stated, “I didn’t tell you because I was sorta embarrassed. I thought you might think it would be girly,”
“Don’t you ever wonder where I came up with Sonic’s skating moves in Lost World? You. I saw you practice one time, and that’s where the idea came from,” Neptune admitted.
Nepgear and Neptune then sat in silence for a moment, Nepgear thinking of what to do next.
“Neptune, let’s go to our room and relax for a little while, okay?” Nepgear told her sister.
“Hai, Mistress,” Neptune responded, as they headed for their room.

Chapter 2: The Ticket Mistress
---
Nepgear sat on her bed, watching TV with Nepgear sitting on the floor by her younger sister, simply watching as Nepgear flipped through the channels, trying to find something good to watch.
“Onee-chan… why didn’t you schedule Sonic Boom at a better time?” Nepgear whined.
“Cartoon Network didn’t give me many time slots…” Neptune admitted, “And what’s something stupid, the first ad for the show actually didn’t air until after the first episode aired!”
“Yea… stupid,” Nepgear sighed, as she blinked for a moment, giving up after a moment, just landing on the news and muting the TV, “Oh Servant-Onee-chan… listen up.”
“Hai?” Neptune stated, turning to her sister, seeing Nepgear take off her shoes and socks.
“Massage my feet for me, please,” Nepgear told her sister.
“Yes, Mistress,” Neptune sighed, getting started. Nepgear was pleasantly surprised by how good her sister was, starting to relax at the feel.
“This is… really good… when did you get so good at this?” Nepgear asked.
“I had to do something while you were off at your mystery activities, so, I got a part time job at a Leanbox onsen,” Neptune informed, “Hey wait… those mystery activities are your ice skating practice, aren’t they?”
“Yep. Hey… that explains where you’ve been when I get back,” Nepgear realized.
The two giggled for a moment, as Neptune continued massaging Nepgear’s feet, with Nepgear feeling really relaxed as Neptune did so. Nepgear actually began to doze off a little bit, feeling her eyes start to close, when she accidentally unmuted the TV as an ad began to play.
-Welcome minna, 5pb. here! On Saturday, March 17th, at 7:30pm I’ll be performing at Leanbox, in the Leanbox Theater, showing off all your favorite hits! Hope to see you there.- the girl, who was fair-skinned with pink eyes and having a mole below the left one. Her blue hair is about elbow in length and worn straight, with bangs that stick up from the center and spike downward to frame her face. Worn over her hair is a pair of black headphones with silver and pink accents and a small black microphone attached to the left ear piece. She also has black painted nails and a black music note with a heart piece tattoo on the left side of her stomach. Her outfit is rather showy in comparison to most of the cast but as an idol, she is supposed to be appealing to the audience. It consists of a black bikini top with very thin silvery vertical lines, black ruffled lining and button pieces on the straps that have small silver spots along them. The ruffled skirt matches the top with white straps and black and pink buckles, a pink belt with a pink bow on the back and black lining of the skirt, and two smaller frilled layers of it, one being pink while the other is black. Her black boots have white strappy stripes and white and black stripes underneath, along with a frontal pink design. One boot is almost covers the entire leg with tears in the material, while the other boot is short with fishnet stocking material, resembling a garterbelt, she also wore multiple accessories, such as small below the shoulder bands with pink frills and silver music notes going around the center, a black and pink bracelet on each wrist, a black frilled choker with studs and a heart piece with her icon on it.
“5pb.-san,” Nepgear giggled.
“Oh yea… wasn’t she one of your party members when you saved me and the others from the Gamindustri Graveyard?” Neptune asked.
“That’s right,” Nepgear nodded, “I haven’t seen her for a while now, I’ll admit. Oh and… who said you could stop the massaging? Your Mistress is displeased…”
Neptune whimpered before she continued her work, making Nepgear smile.
“Don’t worry… you’re forgiven,” Nepgear informed, petting Neptune’s cheek with her foot.
“Okay… that’s kinda impressive,” Neptune admitted, as she continued. She kept it up for a moment, before muttering, “And I can’t wait for today to be over…”
“I heard that,” Nepgear responded, rather annoyed.
---
The following morning started out rather sour for Nepgear, as she heard her sister crying and complaining.
“Neptune, you are acting like a five year old,” Histoire complained.
“Histy… there’s nothing good to eat… there’s no chips, no candy, no ice cream and no sodas!” Neptune responded.
“But there is a bunch of food that is good for you… much healthier, and some even good tasting,” Histoire sighed.
“Yea, but most of it is nasty-tasting. Can’t you go out and do the grocery shopping?” Neptune responded.
“And give you an excuse to slack? No way Neptune,” Histoire blinked.
“But-”
“Say another word, and you’re gonna see eggplants in this house,” Histoire threatened, making Neptune instantly run and hide herself in the bathroom.
“NO! ANYTHING BUT EGGPLANTS!” Neptune screamed from the bathroom.
“Nice, Histoire-san. You know how much she hates eggplants,” Nepgear giggled, walking on in.
“But… Neptune is right about one thing for all of her complaining. We are running low on food. Nepgear, if it isn’t too much trouble, can you go and do the grocery shopping?”
“Hai, Histoire-san,” Nepgear smiled before she was handed a small list and headed out.
---
Nepgear simply finished within twenty minutes, though she did buy herself a little snack to eat on the way back, as she had yet to eat any breakfast that morning.
“...maybe I shoulda ate before I left… ah well, ya live and learn,” Nepgear shrugged, as she began to hum the beat to the theme from a certain game with that title.
However, as she hummed, she heard something like a car screech before seeing a black limo drive by and it was being knocked around by some Dogoos.
“Tch… great…” Nepgear muttered, putting down the groceries and dusting herself off for a moment, “Onee-chan’s not here… looks like it’s my time to step up to the plate. Yosh… Hard Drive Divinity Candidate Henshin!”
Nepgear was then surrounded by rings of data before they shattered, followed by her clothes vanishing in a manner similar to Neptune’s. Her hair grew a bit longer and some shades lighter as her gloves, boots, then main armor appeared, finishing with the wings.
When Nepgear was finished, she had hair that was almost a shade of pink, going down to her knees while her bangs and side parts before the ears also lengthen. Her eyes turn a bright blue color and her hairclip is now a round white piece with a blue center. Her primary HDD lilac glowing pieces. The top/chest part is connected around the neck while her gloves and boots are above elbow and knee length. The hair piece is black.
Nepgear flew up, holding her weapon, what looked like a gun but also had a long blade attached to it, making it look like a gunblade, starting the battle by using her weapon to shoo away the enemies away from the limo.
“Don’t worry, you’re safe now,” Nepgear assured the people inside, the enemies muttering something, “Eh, you don’t know who I am? Well… you will know my name. So listen up, and carve this into your hearts! Atashi was, Nepgear, CPU Candidate of Planeptune, Purple Sister!”
And thus, she charged in, attacking first by blasting her foes like her weapon was a gun before slashing away at them. Once she saw they were weakened, she prepared her weapon for the hissatsu attack. She then rushed in, slashing them multiple times before they dissipated into data.
“May be a five hit combo, and one of my weaker moves… but hey. Weaker doesn’t always mean it’s useless,” Purple Sister smiled, landing to the ground and turning back to normal.
“Nepgear… is that you?” someone asked, approaching Nepgear.
“Ara?” Nepgear stated, turning around to see 5pb. “Oh! 5pb., it’s been a while,”
“It certainly has. You look a little taller than the last time I saw you… just a little,” 5pb. giggled.
“Yea… wait… was that limo yours?” Nepgear asked.
“Sure is,” 5pb. giggled, smiling, “So… how could I thank you for this…?”
“Oh no. Helping people is it’s own reward,” Nepgear responded.
“Oh, I insist Nepgear. Let me see… a new song inspired by you? No… that takes a while… a girl’s night out… no, I don’t have the time… oh! I know,” 5pb. smiled, as she quickly walked back to her limo and rummaged around for something, she then brought Nepgear an envelope and smiled, “I was planning on giving these to one particular lucky person… but here. Tickets and backstage passes to my concert on Saturday,”
“Oh… thank you,” Nepgear giggled, taking the envelope, “This is just very generous 5pb., thanks a lot. I’ll be sure to be there,”
“Thank you. I’ll see you there,” 5pb. smiled, as she headed back for her limo.
Nepgear saw her depart, before getting the groceries and walking back for home. She thought for a moment about what to wear for the concert, before she took a moment to use the envelope to cover herself from the light from the sun for a moment, but noticed the shadow casted from the inside.
“Wait…” Nepgear said to herself, opening it up, seeing there were only two tickets and two backstage passes, “There’s only two?! ...I shouldn’t be complaining but… who am I gonna bring with me?”
---
Neptune just gave an annoyed groan, sitting down and doing her work, while Compa, IF, Blanc, Vert, Noire and Histoire were all watching her to make sure she didn’t go anywhere.
“...stop staring at me… you’re kinda scaring me…” Neptune told them.
“Can’t let you leave not being watched. Otherwise you’ll just bail on us,” IF stated bluntly.
“But can you not stare at me?” Neptune whimpered.
“Honestly, she acts like such a little kid sometimes…” Blanc stated.
Histoire then muttered something that was inaudible to everyone else, but Noire saw her mouth move.
“Did you say something Histoire?” Noire asked.
“Oh… it’s nothing,” Histoire responded.
Nepgear then walked through the door, simply muttering to herself as she stared at the envelope in her hands.
“Oh Nepgear, you’re back,” Histoire stated, taking the grocery bags from Nepgear, before she noticed the envelope, “Oh? What’s that?”
Nepgear blinked for a moment, confused until she remembered the envelope.
“Oh, uh… this? Uh… do you want the short version or the long version?” Nepgear asked.
“The version that’ll get us your answer as quick as possible,” Noire stated.
“Okay… uh… I protected 5pb. from an attack, and she gave me tickets and backstage passes to her concert,” Nepgear explained.
“No way!” everyone gawked.
“But… she only gave me two…” Nepgear informed, “But I still have five days to decide who I want to go with me,”
Nepgear then walked away to hide the tickets and passes in a safe spot until she made her choice, making everyone in the room blink for a moment.
“Nepgear is certainly a lucky little girl,” Neptune stated.
“I’d love to go and see the concert,” Compa admitted.
“Heh. Get real Compa, there’s nobody here who’s a bigger 5pb. fan than me,” IF stated.
“...really Ai-chan?” Compa blinked.
“What?! I’ve only gone to all of her concerts since… her debut!” IF stated.
“I remember seeing you there actually,” Vert admitted, “But you’re not getting that ticket IF,”
“Like you’re gonna get it,” Neptune stated, “I’m her big sis. So, Nep Jr.-nee-chan is gonna invite me for sure,”
“What makes you so sure about that?” Noire asked.
“Minna, just let her decide who to pick. I’m sure we’ll be able to get tickets ourselves,” Blanc insisted, as she simply blinked for a moment, “And thus, I’m heading home/”
---
Later that evening, Blanc decided to look through the sites to buy tickets for herself and her sisters, knowing they’d like to see 5pb. as well.
“Uh… Onee-chan, did anything… come in the mail, for me?” Rom asked, walking into her sister’s room.
“Oh… sorry, I didn’t check the mail. Gomen,” Blanc responded, “But I’ll check it soon. I promise,”
“Hai,” Rom nodded, as she walked off, while Blanc finally found a website with the tickets, however…
“Oh no! Sold out?!” Blanc gawked, “No… it can’t be. That means the only ticket left is… Nepgear’s second one… ugh… I can’t believe I have to resort to begging and bribery to get to that concert… better not let those little pests learn that the concert is sold out.”
“Too late!” Ram shouted, standing by her sister’s doorway with a smirk on her face, “I know that Nepgear’s got the only ticket. And it’s gonna be mine, all mine!”
“Ram, please calm down. You’re so hot tempered and… weren’t you the one who assumed that Nepgear was an ‘evil goddess’ back when you first met her?” Blanc responded.
“Uh… w-well… th-that was… shut up! I’m getting that ticket!” Ram told her sister.
Meanwhile, Rom was simply sitting by the TV, simply looking at the TVs recorded shows for playback, just trying to find something to watch, not hearing what her sisters were talking about.
“...when is that gonna get here?” Rom muttered to herself.
---
The date soon became the 16th, one day before the day of the concert, and Nepgear had still yet to make her choice. Currently, the purple haired girl was fast asleep, giggling at whatever she was dreaming of, when the sound of someone walking in caused her to wake up.
“Huh? What the…?” she muttered, looking around, when she saw Neptune walk in, carrying a plate with her.
“Good morning, dear Mistress. Did you sleep well?” Neptune asked.
“...Neptune, we haven’t had our floor skating contest. You don’t need to call me that…” Nepgear responded.
“Does it really matter? You’re my darling little sister, and it doesn’t matter if we have our contest,” Neptune stated, putting down a plate of pancakes and a glass of strawberry milk.
“Aww… these are my favorites. Thanks Neptune this is really sweet… to sweet. What do you want?” Nepgear asked.
“Does an older sister have to want something to do something nice for her younger sister?” Neptune asked back.
“...not always,” Nepgear shrugged, before she glanced to her calendar, which had the next day circled, and the word ‘concert’ written on it, “You want the extra ticket, don’t you?!”
“...am I that transparent?” Neptune asked.
“I’m sorry Onee-chan, but I don’t know who I’m giving it to yet. And you doing this for me didn’t help… but I am thankful for the food,” Nepgear admitted, as she began to eat.
---
Later, Nepgear walked over to what was essentially hers and Neptune’s office, Histoire hovering above her desk.
“Oh, hi Histoire. I’m just about ready to do my workload for the day,” Nepgear smiled about to pick up some paperwork.
“Oh no, no need for that, dear. In fact, you don’t have to work for the next two days either,” Histoire smiled.
“...is that why my pile is bigger?!” Neptune snapped.
“Well, someone has to pick up the slack while she takes the break,” Histy teased Neptune.
“Histoire-san… that’s not really fair and… is this your attempt to get the ticket?” Nepgear responded.
“Eh?! H-How’d you…?”
“Onee-chan already tried to get it. But… can you two just let me think, extra favors aren’t really helping,” Nepgear told them.
“Hai,” they nodded, as Nepgear walked off to get a snack.
“...that ticket is mine Histy!” Neptune told Histoire once Nepgear was out of earshot.
“Who said it’s yours? Especially if your workload is so big.”
“So, you’re pullin’ a Cinderella on me? Not cool Histy,” Neptune stated.
---
Almost two hours later, Nepgear sat outside and looked at the sandwich she was making for herself, taking out the ketchup and mustard, shaking the containers so she could get a good squirt.
“Okay… hmm… man… who should that ticket go to…?” Nepgear muttered, as she began to squirt ketchup on her plate, “There’s Onee-chan, IF-chan, Compa-san, Histoire-san, Noire-san, Uni-chan, Blanc-san, Ram-san, Rom-chan, Vert-san… well… uh… uh… maybe I could give somebody else my ticket… but still, that’s eight people who won’t be happy…”
“Uh… have you decided?” Histoire suddenly asked Nepgear.
“NO I HAVEN’T!” Nepgear shouted in annoyance.
“No… on your condiment. You’ve been squirting the plate for a few minutes now, and I kinda need some for my lunch,” Histoire explained.
“Eh?” Nepgear responded, looking down at her plate, realizing she had made a mess with the ketchup while she was thinking out loud, “...yea. Sorry.”
---
Nepgear had soon walked off from her home to continue thinking while she ate her lunch… or at least was going to, when Compa smiled at her, walking over.
“Hi Nepgear-chan, I just wanted to say you look really nice today, but… you know… I think you could look better,” Compa admitted, making Nepgear turn to her for a moment.
“Uh… okay? Can this wait, I’m kinda hungry for lunch…” Nepgear stated, about to start eating, when Compa sat down by her, “And no it can’t… ugh…”
“Don’t you think you should get a small trim, or at least style your hair in a special way?” Compa asked.
“No thanks. I keep it long so you can tell me apart from Onee-chan,” Nepgear pointed out, “If I cut it too short, Onee-chan will try and switch places with me. She’s done it before,”
“Well… at least maybe style it differently. I know a great stylist,” Compa admitted, with Nepgear realizing what she was getting at, but Compa picked her up and dragged Nepgear off, causing Nepgear to accidentally let her lunch go flying into the garbage can.
“Oh, COME ON!” Nepgear whined.
---
Soon, Nepgear was at a hair stylist that Compa was friends with, having her hair done.
“Another reason I don’t like getting my hair done… I really just don’t want to sit still while others have their hands on my head…” Nepgear told Compa.
“Just relax a little, it’s a lot of fun,” Compa giggled, having her hair trimmed a little bit, while barely noticeable, it was a nice trim.
In the meantime, Nepgear was having her hair done in a rather unique style, but she couldn’t see it at first, only knowing that people were tugging at her hair for a bit, making her wince a little in pain. After they stopped, they held up a mirror, showing that Nepgear’s hair was now done in an odango style.
“...ara? Where have I seen this before?” Nepgear said to herself, as Compa paid for it.
“I thought you’d like it,” Compa giggled, “So… uh… how about we talk dresses?”
“...wait a second. This is your attempt to get the extra ticket! Grrr! COMPA! I’m not sure who to give it to, and this isn’t helping me!” Nepgear shouted, running off, leaving Compa blinking for a moment.
---
Nepgear gave an annoyed groan, hearing her stomach rumble, she held her stomach for a moment, when IF walked up to her.
“Oh hey. Have you seen Nepgear? I’ve been meaning to talk with her for a little,” IF stated.
“IF… it’s me, Nepgear,” Nepgear informed. IF squinted for a moment, gasping for a moment.
“Gear?! When did you get an odango hairstyle?” IF asked.
“Blame Compa for it. She made me get my hair done, and part of her silly attempt to get the other ticket. And right now I’m not really in the mood to talk, I’m starving… I had breakfast almost two hours ago,”
IF began to think a little bit, before she took Nepgear’s hand and guided her for the train bound for Lowee so they could get food.
---
“Ramen?” Nepgear asked, confused why IF picked that place to eat, “We have good noodle places back on Planeptune… so why come here?”
“Because this ramen is the best in all of Gamindustri,” IF smiled as she placed in an order for them both, with IF getting a plain bowl with some soy sauce on it, while Nepgear’s had beef, broccoli, some rice and a small dash of soy sauce, just the way Nepgear liked her ramen.
“Oh… it looks so… yummy-tastical…” Nepgear giggled, smiling as she reached for some chopsticks, and noticed there were some dumplings set up as well, “Oh… this all looks so good! I can’t wait to eat it and… wait a minute…”
“Don’t wait, your food will get cold,” IF stated, slurping down some ramen.
Nepgear was silent for a moment, looking at IF suspiciously, not sure how to react or if she should just shut up and start eating, since she was starving, and it was her favorite… but she just looked at IF, and then at all of the food she had.
“You’d never order this much food for anybody unless you wanted to ask a favor and… it’s the ticket, isn’t it?” Nepgear asked.
IF was silent as she finished a noodle and then looked at Nepgear, “Look… I’ve gone to all of 5pb.’s concerts… and I’ve just been so busy practically babysitting your sister that I couldn’t order the ticket for myself… so please, please, please! At least consider me…”
Nepgear just sighed and looked to her food, “...well… you are… or maybe were… I’m not sure yet… high up on my list for my choice. Look… I’m just not sure, and… *sigh* just, let me think, okay? You’re probably the last person I’d ever see begging…”
“Maybe, but… can you just consider it?” Compa asked.
“Just… no more favors, okay?” Nepgear responded, “No extra favors, and I’ll consider you, okay?”
“Seems fair, “IF smiled, as Nepgear sat there, “Uh… are you going to eat? I bought all that food for you… so…”
Nepgear gave a blink, and then just began to eat all of the food IF had ordered for her, before accidentally burping, she began to wipe her mouth with a napkin, rather embarrassed about it.
“Okay, you are totally Neptune’s sister,” IF laughed.
---
Later, as Nepgear walked around, now at Lastation to look at the machinery.
“Man… Lastation always looks so nice. Maybe I could build something for Onee-chan… something that would make her… more… uh… what’s the right word?” Nepgear muttered.
“Un-slack-erish?” Noire asked, walking over.
“Oh! Noire-san!” Nepgear gawked, as Noire guided her along to her home.
---
“So… I was looking for somebody to test out the prototype for a big PS4 game… so, why not you?” Noire smiled, handing Nepgear a controller, and taking out the disk, which Nepgear saw, and gasped at.
“That’s… Kingdom Hearts III…” Nepgear gawked, “That beta still isn’t even finished…”
“I just want to keep the audience in suspense… especially given… ahem… hackers…” Noire stated, “Everything here, top secret. So… how about testing KHIII for me?”
Nepgear reached for the controller, but stopped, realizing what was going on.
“Wait… you too, Noire? Really? You’re using hype to try and get the ticket?! You doing these extra favors for me isn’t helping! And if you want a prototype tester, get Onee-chan or Vert-san!” Nepgear shouted, about to run off, when someone began to tug on her odango hair “Ite… ite ite…”
She looked to see it was Uni, who led her outside and began to walk with her.
“Uni-san… let go of my hair!” Nepgear told her, wincing in pain as Uni let go, and put a shoulder around Nepgear, “Thanks… owie…”
“Sorry about that. But I needed some way to get you over here so we could talk,” Uni stated, “Older sisters can be such a pain at times, can’t they?”
“...eh?” Nepgear blinked, “What’re you talkin’ about? I mean… sure, Onee-chan’s a little lazy, but I love her, and you love your sister,”
“I said ‘at times’ didn’t I?” Uni responded, “But seriously, Neptune’s lazy, Noire’s too much of a workaholic, Compa and IF both have jobs, Histoire’s just… Histoire, Vert would just probably fall asleep, Blanc would just be staring at a book the whole time, and Ram and Rom… eh, I don’t know what they’d do. But really, I’m the only one mature enough to go to a concert with you.”
“...If this is about my ticket, the answer is no, I still l need to think it over, and while you did give me some reasons… I have to think for myself,” Nepgear stated, as she ran off quickly, making she her new hairstyle wouldn’t drag behind and let Uni catch her again, “And at least the others were trying to do something that wasn’t slinging mud at somebody else!”
Nepgear ran as fast as her legs could carry her on foot, she was getting really drained from having to run all day, eventually stopping when she thought she was safe. However, where she stopped just happened to be the train bound for Leanbox.
“Oh goodness… I accidentally got into a train… well… at least Vert-san won’t be pestering me for the ticket…” she sighed with relief as she soon sat down to catch her breath.
---
Nepgear was soon walking around Leanbox, enjoying the fresh air of the area, finding a spot where she thought she could be alone, and sitting down. However…
“Good day Nepgear-nee-chan,” Vert smiled, getting Nepgear’s attention, making Nepgear sigh a little bit.
“You know I’m not your sister… you really need to stop joking about that in front of others…” Nepgear stated.
“You could be my little sister. Just dye your hair green, replace all the purple on your outfit with green, and we’ll be sisters!” Vert smiled, causing Nepgear to groan, instantly figuring out Vert’s reasons, “And once you do, maybe we can have a little sister bonding experience…”
“At a concert? Vert, this isn’t really helping your case… plus… green hair? I’ve had my hair messed around with enough for one day!” Nepgear stated.
“I was actually about to comment about that. Sailor Moon, huh? Or should I call you Sailor Purple Sister?” Vert joked.
“Oh… that’s who I was reminded of…” Nepgear realized.
“Yea… anyways, you wanna read some of it with your ‘Onee-chan’?” Vert asked.
Nepgear then ran off, getting really sick and tired of everyone’s attempts to get the ticket.
---
Nepgear had hidden in an alleyway and was out of breath by this point, really just ready to be done with this mess.
“...maybe I should just return the tickets to 5pb., this has just been so much trouble…” Nepgear muttered, when she heard Vert gasp by her, “Okay, how did you find me?!”
“Odango hair is not hard to miss Nepgear,” Vert responded, with Nepgear parkouring her way up and above Vert, making sure to try and hide herself when suddenly…
THUD!
Nepgear fell to the ground, having bumped into somebody. Nepgear groaned, looking up to see Blanc instead of Vert, making her sigh.
“Nepgear? What are you doing here?” Blanc asked.
“It’s a really long story… what are you doing here?” Nepgear asked.
“Purchasing a long story,” Blanc responded, showing a book, “Somethin’ the matter?”
“It’s a long story… but I need somewhere to hide for a little while!”
“Oh… I see… I have a good place to hide out when I don’t want my sisters to pester me… follow me,” Blanc smiled, guiding Nepgear someplace.
---
The place the two were later in was an amazing looking place, which looked like some sort of dojo for one large half while the other looked like an office with people programming stuff, and what took Nepgear back was a poster with various characters on it.
“What… is this place?” Nepgear asked.
“This, Nepgear-chan, is where I do my planning for the Super Smash Brothers series,” Blanc informed.
“Sugoi… no wonder you said this was a safe place. Nobody would dare try and bother you here,” Nepgear giggled, as Blanc guided her to a programming room.
“Here, is where we make DLC for the game…” Blanc informed, “It’s a… very slow process, given how many gigs tend to go into a Smash Bros game.”
“So… is the Rayman DLC real or no?” Nepgear asked.
“Oh that? At the moment… no. But I have been planning to have somebody suggest another DLC character… and maybe have a tournament where the winners gets to have a character of their choice… within reason, be DLC. So… Rayman’s not outta the realm of possibility…” Blanc informed, as she sat Nepgear down by some paper, “But… I wanna hear what you think. Do you have a character you wanna see in SSB4? Write it down, and I’ll see what I can do about putting he/she/it within the game,”
“Suge…” Nepgear giggled as she thought for a moment, “Maybe Shantae… or maybe Spyro… maybe Amaterasu from Okami... Oh! Maybe even NiGHTS-chan and… wait a minute…”
Nepgear thought for a moment, looking around before gasping, looking at Blanc.
“Is this all a trick in order for me to give you my extra ticket?” Nepgear asked.
“...partly. I have been meaning to ask for ideas…” Blanc admitted, “...so… ticket or not, can I at least get your thoughts?”
“Well, I guess. Maybe-” Nepgear began, when someone grabbed her hair and ran outside with her.

Nepgear looked and saw she was now outside and that Ram was the one who dragged her out.
“Gimme the ticket! Gimme it, gimme it, gimme it!” Ram shouted.
“...Ram, really?” Nepgear blinked.
“I’m a HUGE 5pb fan, and Blanc-onee-chan never takes me! Come on, gimme the ticket!”
“Ram…” Nepgear started.
“Gimme it! Please, I beg of you, let me have that ticket!” Ram shouted.
“Ram!” Nepgear responded, trying to get her attention.
“PrettyPrettyPrettyPrettyPrettyPrettyPrettyPretty Please~~??!!?!?!?!?!”
“RA~~~M!” Nepgear shouted at the top of her lungs, “At least the others tried to be subtle about wanting the ticket!”
“...where’s the fun in subtly?” Ram asked.
“Ugh! That’s it!-”
“Ticket, what ticket?” somebody asked, as they turned to see a small girl with fair skin and bright chocolate brown eyes. Her hair almost matches her eyes and is shown to be very short, just framing her face. Her most noticeable feature is her giant white bunny cap. Her dress that she wore is light blue with princess-puff sleeves and ruffled lining. At her neck and the bottom of the dress is a big brown segment along with black marks and a gold buckle. Her pocket is very big, like a kangaroo pouch at her stomach and above it are gold buttons. She also wears plain brown boots and white, rabbit themed glove.
“Nepgear has an extra ticket for 5pb.’s sold out concert!” Ram shouted foolishly.
“Gust wants the ticket!” the girl, Gust, shouted, as she ran over to Nepgear, “Let Gust be your plus one!”
Someone random from the crowd pulled Nepgear aside, and soon, people began to almost dog pile Nepgear, and began to get sort of violent, as they began to tear at Nepgear’s clothes, leaving her clothes torn up, people able to see her pink and white striped panties, and all that remained were some tears near her legs and most of her top. She was able to jump up and run away rather comedically, crying the whole way.
---
Soon, news spread around all of the nations about Nepgear’s extra ticket, and the young CPU Candidate had to spend the rest of the day running and hiding from people trying to get her ticket. It was getting near 8:50pm, and thus it was getting rather cold in Lowee, due to the lack of clothing due to the crowd, Nepgear was freezing cold. She wanted to get to someplace warm, but couldn’t out of fear of people attacking for the ticket. Nepgear was now hiding in an alleyway, and she was shivering by this point. She felt somebody tap her shoulder, making her jump up in fear for a moment.
“PLEASE! L-Leave me alone!” Nepgear shouted, cringing in fear.
“Miss Nepgear-chan? ...are you okay?” a soft voice asked her, making Nepgear turn to see Rom.
“Eh? R-Rom-chan?” Nepgear blinked, surprised to see Rom, but also worried that she would be asking for the ticket.
“It’s kinda cold out here, isn’t it? Why are you… uh… dressed like that?” Rom inquired.
“It’s a long story… but I’m really cold right now…” Nepgear informed, “Just… p-please… don’t ask to be the extra.”
Rom gave a confused blink, tilting her head in confusion, “The extra what?”
‘...she must not know. Oh… thank Celestia she doesn’t...’ Nepgear thought, sighing with relief, “It’s nothing… n-nevermind.”
“Why don’t… I take you home with me? I can make sure you’re… you know… dressed for this weather,” Rom offered.
“...Th-Thank you…” Nepgear smiled, as Rom took out a blanket from her bag and used it to make Nepgear look decent enough to walk around outside.
---
The two soon arrived at the White Sibling’s place of residence, with Rom leading Nepgear up to her room, which had a bed that was big enough for both Ram and Rom, had white sheets on the gray frame, the room itself having light power blue painted walls, white floors, a small table with various toys, papers, crayons, colored pencils and stuff situated in a corner, and a stack of games in another along with a small TV and a Wii U hooked up to it.
“This is a nice room. Do you and Ram share it?” Nepgear asked.
“...we used to. Blanc placed us in different rooms a while back… it gets lonely… but… I think that it’s kind of… quieter in here, without Ram. You… won’t tell her I said that… will you?” Rom responded.
“Of course not,” Nepgear smiled, as Rom went into her closet and picked out a mainly pink and white outfit.
“Sorry, we don’t have much in your size right now, but it should be enough to keep you decent,” Rom told her, “The bathroom’s just across the hall.”
“Thanks, Rom-chan,” Nepgear smiled, taking the outfit and walking for the bathroom.
‘I still can’t believe that Nepgear wound up like that. What kind of a Pokey like creature did she encounter to cause that sort of damage…? And more importantly… why didn’t she go back home?’ Rom wondered.
As she thought of this, not sure of what might have caused this at all. She gave a shrug, and sat down to work on a little drawing she had been working on.
---
Later, Nepgear walked out of the bathroom, now wearing a pink and white version of her usual outfit, with a pink hair pin, and she tugged at it slightly, it just being a little too small for her, despite looking like her normal outfit.
“Well… at least I’m wearing something…” Nepgear muttered, walking back into Rom’s room, but she noticed Rom wasn’t there, “Hmm? Wonder where Rom went…”
Nepgear sat down and looked at some of the things Rom had in her room, some toys from some Kamen Rider and Super Sentai seasons, a few things from the Sailor Moon series, and then one of the most notable things, were the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic toys that were taking up a small corner in the room.
“Heh… pretty cool,” Nepgear smiled, as she looked to some pieces of paper, seeing on them were various sketches that, the sketches having images of various characters from the toys, along with some characters from video games, some of the more noticeable ones were from games made by the company WayForward, such as Shantae and Patty Wagon, and Nepgear noticed one sketch that had Patty in a sort of Super Smash Bros style combat, “Heh… these are so cute…”
Nepgear then sat back down, when she heard Rom walking up. She saw Rom open up the door and walk in with a small tray of snacks.
“Wait a minute… Rom… is this for a reward?” Nepgear asked suspiciously.
“...no,” Rom blinked, “...Onee-chan tells me and Ram that CPUs are supposed to be polite when they have guests… I’m only trying to be a good hostess… and a good friend,”
“Oh… okay. Sorry… it’s just, people were doing me extra favors to try and get something from me almost all day…” Nepgear informed, as Rom moved the small plate of snacks by them, “Also, shouldn’t it be ‘Ram and I’ not ‘me and Ram’?”
“...you’re one to talk about grammar, Ms. ‘what the goodness’,” Rom joked, actually getting Nepgear to laugh, “No offense…”
“None taken…” Nepgear giggled, “...Thanks for everything, Rom-chan. You’re really sweet.”
Rom smiled, before the two of them began to have the small snacks that Rom had prepared for the two of them, the two just ate in silence for a bit, before Nepgear chose to make some small talk.
“So… has Blanc ever showed you how she makes the Smash Brothers games?” Nepgear asked.
“...no. She thinks if she showed us, we may accidentally cause damage,” Rom admitted.
“...really? So… why does the new one have a 3DS version?”
“It’s… because she missed us so much while she was captive… she wanted to make something special to show us… she loves us.”
“Aww… that’s really sweet.”
“Yes… it is,” she admitted, “Even so… she didn’t take our ideas… for characters.”
“What do you mean? Who did you have in mind for characters?” Nepgear asked.
“Well… Ram wanted to have some Square Enix character… I can’t remember who… maybe… Chrono from the Chrono Trigger games… but me? Uh… have you heard of a game called… Mighty Switch Force?” Rom started, before asking Nepgear a question.
The CPU Candidate of Planeptune began to think a little bit, tapping her head before looking back at Rom.
“The name sounds familiar, but… I can’t figure out why,” Nepgear admitted, “Sorry… but I’m not sure if I remember it…”
“It’s a game made by WayForward. You hear of them?”
“Yea, I have. They made the Shantae series, without a doubt their most well known game, but they also made the remakes of games like A Boy and his Blob and Ducktales,” Nepgear responded.
“They made Mighty Switch Force… it’s my favorite game,” Rom informed.
“Oh… okay. I think I get it, you wanted the lead from that game to be in Smash Bros 4, right?” Nepgear figured out.
Rom nodded, before sighing a little bit, “I don’t know why Onee-chan didn’t listen to us about our character ideas. I mean… we helped her with games before…”
“Don’t worry,” Nepgear told Rom, hugging her, “I’m sure that she’ll reconsider,”
Rom smiled, hugging Nepgear back. The two smiled happily, before they let go of each-other, Rom then picking up some of her toys she had by the corner, showing some of them to Nepgear. Soon, it got late, and Nepgear wasn’t sure if she should try and risk going home, or stay with Rom for the night. She sighed, not sure what to do before Rom let out a small yawn, getting into her bed and sitting down, not seeing Nepgear was by her.
‘...I guess… I could spend the night, and leave in the morning...’ Nepgear thought, as she made sure Rom was tucked into bed.
---
Meanwhile, 5pb. was just sitting in a hotel room, simply trying to relax as it was the day before a concert. She had turned on the TV and turned to the news, but she gasped upon seeing what the big story was.
-This just in, all of Gameindustri is in a huge uproar. As usual, the tickets to 5pb.’s concert have sold out, and people are desperate. However, today we have seen the lengths of how far they’ll go as people attacked a young girl who had the only known extra ticket for the sold out concert… if anyone sees this girl…- the announcer started, before pausing, -PLEASE! Let me have that ticket!-
“Nepgear? Oh man… I didn’t realize how far this would go. Wait a moment…” 5pb. started with worry, when she saw something sitting on the desk, a smile forming on her face as she walked over to get it.
---
The following morning, Nepgear woke up with a yawn, she looked to see the time was 5:15am, and she knew this would likely be her best chance to get back home unnoticed.
“...alright, better get going,” Nepgear whispered as she got up when…
“Ms… Nepgear-...chan?” Rom asked, waking up as well.
“Hmm? Oh… sorry Rom, I didn’t mean to wake you up. Go back to sleep, okay?” Nepgear told her.
“...you going home?” Rom asked.
“Yea… and it’s early, so, hopefully, I won’t get noticed by the people…” Nepgear stated, as she stretched a little.
“...Ms. Nepgear-chan… let me help you home,” Rom offered.
“Really? Wow… thank you Rom…” Nepgear smiled, as Rom got up and quickly took out a blue robe and walked out with Nepgear.
---
The two skillfully avoided the people of Lowee and Planeptune who were looking for Nepgear, eventually, the two made it to Nepgear’s home, but went in through the back door, just to avoid waking up anybody.
“Ms. Nepgear-chan… why are you hiding from those people?” Rom asked.
“Well… I got an extra ticket to a sold out concert… and now everyone’s trying to get it from me,” Nepgear answered before Rom gave a confused look.
“...a concert? Oh. Well… don’t worry, I won’t ask for the ticket…” Rom responded, about to walk out.
“Oh, hey, Rom?” Nepgear started, before Rom could leave.
“Hmm?”
Nepgear gave a motion and whispered into Rom’s ear, with Rom blushing a little bit after Nepgear had stopped talking.
“...me? Really…?” Rom gawked.
“Yea, you.” Nepgear giggled, “So… what do you say?”
“...sure,” Rom giggled.
---
Later, Nepgear went to check her mail, keeping a hood over her head to avoid being recognized. She took out the mail, some of it being political for her and Neptune to sign, some of it was bills, but what got Nepgear’s attention, was an envelope from 5pb. of all people.
“Hmm? What’s this?” Nepgear wondered, opening it up, to reveal, another ticket! She gawked for a moment, before she looked at the letter, “‘Dear Nepgear- I’m sorry about what happened to you yesterday. Luckily… I found another ticket. Just… one more. Sorry… and I’m really sorry for the hassle you got into. Still hope to see you there- 5pb.’ ...hmm? One more ticket eh?”
---
Neptune, Histoire, Compa, IF, Noire, Uni, Blanc, Rom, Ram and Vert had all gathered to hear who Nepgear was going to invite with her to the concert.
“You can all just sit back ladies. My little sister is so gonna pick me,” Neptune smiled.
“Your younger sister? I think she’d rather be the sister of somebody more… mature,” Vert told Neptune, making Neptune fume.
“Who cares about that! I don’t think she’d want to spend time with you giant lot of jokers for something formal,” Noire responded.
“Ta hell with ‘formal’! If she doesn’t want to go with you guys, she’ll go with me!” Blanc shouted, “And what’s with that reference to a game for my system?!”
Nepgear cleared her throat, as she walked out, dressed up wearing a white and lavender dress with red bows and tassels, yellow accents, gloves, boots, and headband, “So… do I look nice?”
“Uh… is that what you’re wearing to the concert?” Neptune asked.
“...it’s the nicest thing I own… but, enough about that. You all might wanna hear who’s coming with me? Well… it is…” Nepgear informed, pausing for dramatic effect.
The room was filled with silence for a grand total of almost five minutes, when...
“Nepu… spit it out, the suspense is killing us!” Neptune stated.
“Okay… my guest will be… Rom!” Nepgear informed.
“Mou~!” the others groaned, with Rom giving a little giggle, walking over to Nepgear’s side. Nepgear gave a small giggle, before she then did something nobody expected, and moved the extra ticket she had, to reveal a second extra ticket, making everybody gasp in surprise.
“Surprise? 5pb. gave me this one after she heard of what happened to me yesterday…” Nepgear informed, “And this one goes to… IF!”
“What?!” the others gawked as IF gasped in surprise, Nepgear handing her the ticket.
“I thought it over… and I realized, you and Rom are two of my closest friends… so I figured, why not?” Nepgear giggled, with IF smiling.
“Really? ...thank you Nepgear,” IF giggled.
“Plus, me and Rom do need somebody to make sure we stay out of trouble on a Saturday night,” Nepgear joked.
“Shouldn’t it be ‘Rom and I’?” Rom joked.
“Oh Rom-chan,” Nepgear giggled, hugging her.
---
That night, Nepgear was the first to arrive at the concert, and was looking for seat A010, and making sure to remember to have seats saved for Rom and IF. She sat down, seeing she was one of the few people by the front row. She looked over to the person to her right, just curious. Nearby a tall girl with pale-fair skin and red blushy cheeks was looking at the concert stage. Her eyes look to be a light green, covered by glasses, while her hair appears to be a pale-silver color. Her hair consists of very neatly combed bangs that reach her ears, framing her face. She has strands of hair, very straight and worn down, reaching her chest. The rest of her hair loosely flows outward and seems to be about waist length. She is seen wearing a black suit-top with a white undershirt and black tie, with big black and white piece shoulder attachments and a loose white belt. An odd skull is shown directly below it, along with a thin white cloth over her lower half. The end of the jacket almost resembles a skirt or dress, and she also has on black leggings/pants, and tall white boots with X-shaped black laces.
“Hello there,” Nepgear smiled, the person next to her turning to look.
“Oh, good evening. Say… weren’t you the girl attacked for the extra ticket?” the woman inquired.
“E-Eh?! ...hai,” Nepgear nodded.
“I’m sorry to hear that…” the woman apologized, petting Nepgear’s head a little.
“HE~Y! NEPGEAR, WHERE ARE YOU?!” Nepgear heard IF shout, getting Nepgear’s attention. Nepgear began to wave, getting IF’s attention, and thus, she and Rom headed down to where she was and Nepgear saw what Rom was wearing a white dress with gold trimmings, red zigzagged accents, a red bow, matching shoes, and she had a red and white berret on her head.
“Nice to see you all… awww… Rom… you look so adorable,” Nepgear smiled, making Rom blush, as Rom and IF took their seats to watch the concert.
---
“Well… at least we can see the concert still…” Neptune stated, as they found a channel would be broadcasting the concert.
“...still… it’s a bit of a bummer we won’t be there in person…” Vert sighed.
“I know… well… at least one of my sisters is happy,” Blanc blinked.
“...Onee-chan… I’m sorry I said bad things about you to try and convince Nepgear to let me have the ticket…” Uni apologized to Noire.
“It’s alright, this time. We were sort of competing for it… but expect me to increase your workload later this week for that,” Noire told Uni.
“Noire-san… I… uh… wanted to say… that you would’ve been a choice for me if I got tickets… more than two tickets,” Neptune admitted, making Noire blush a little bit.
“Really? Aww… thanks,” Noire giggled happily.
“Shh, the concert’s about the start,” Compa smiled.
---
A sort of elevator began to rise up from below the stage, 5pb. smiling as she soon came up to the top.
“Hikare! Yume no hoshi (mitsukedasou! ) Oubaarimitto! (I dream of stars (Let’s find them) I’m over the limit)
Genkai nante koete ku yo kitto (I know I’ll keep surpassing myself)
Darenimo makenaikara! (I won’t lose to anyone!)”
People in the crowd began to cheer like nuts, with Nepgear, Rom and IF cheering the loudest.
“Ano Murasaki no daichi aoi sora (mau midori) (Purple is the land and blue the sky (Green leaves are in the air))
Nee anata to mitsumetai mouichido (nandodemo) (I want to gaze at it once more with you (forevermore))
Anata no yasashi-sa nukumori (kanjitai) (Your tenderness, your warmth (I want to feel it))
Ima wa tōkute mo itsu ka... ! (You might be far away now, but we will meet again)
Hikare! Yume no hoshi (mitsukedasou!) Oubaarimitto! (I dream of stars (Let’s find them) I’m over the limit)
Yurugi no nai ishi (omoi) kitto (gureishii sutaa) (My love will not waver (Gracie star)
Meguru ryuusei no (bifrost) (Comets circle the world (They are bifrost))
sashishimesu Genkai nante koete ku yo kitto (I know I can cross the barrier they are)”
Nepgear began to tap her foot in melody with the song and hum along with the beat, both Rom and IF noticing she was perfectly in tune with the song. Then, as the song approached the final lyric, Nepgear, unknowing stood up and sung it in perfect harmony with 5pb.
“Darenimo makenaikara! (I won’t lose to anyone!)”
Everyone cheered, and they actually all heard Nepgear sing with 5pb. due to the mike picking up her voice.
---
“Was that… Nepgear?” Vert blinked.
“Eh? That was Nepgear?” Noire blinked.
“I didn’t know nee-chan was such a good singer,” Neptune giggled.
“Well… you made that idol video with her once… so you at least had some prior knowledge about her being a good singer,” Blanc responded.
“Please… don’t bring that mess up…” Histoire requested.
---
Soon, the concert had ended and 5pb. was starting to sign autographs, when she heard somebody else singing the song she had sung while on stage.
“Eh?” she wondered, as she looked over and saw that it was Nepgear singing a few lines, “Hey, Nepgear-chan!”
“Eh? Oh! 5pb.-san!” IF smiled, as she led Nepgear and Rom on over to speak with her, “You did an amazing job today. But I didn’t expect any less from one of the best performers in Gamindustri.”
“Thanks, but I wanted to compliment someone who may be a better singer than me,” 5pb. stated, making everyone look in confusion, “Nepgear. I’m… talking about Nepgear,”
“Eh? …A-Atashi?! W-Well, I… n-no! It’s not me! I can’t sing…” Nepgear responded sheepishly, trying to hide.
“You were amazing… who knows, maybe all of the CPU have great singing voices, I may need to consider helping you all become idols someday,” 5pb. giggled, with Nepgear hiding behind IF nervously.
---
Soon, the three were on their way to get back to Planeptune, but Rom was starting to get sleepy, having trouble keeping her eyes open, so Nepgear ended up picking her up and carrying her on her back.
“Thanks… Ms. Nepgear-chan…” Rom yawned.
“Nepgear, you can really sing. Why are you so embarrased about it?” IF inquired.
“I… well I… if Onee-chan found out, I think she may try and exploit it. Remember when we did that idol video to get some shares?”
“That one that lead to a popularity debate between the four CPUs? Yea,”
“I wasn’t singing with my best voice… just because I knew Onee-chan would try and use it for her own gain…”
IF blinked at Nepgear, a bit confused at that before she saw Nepgear yawning a little bit. IF just gave a small smiled, placing her hand in Nepgear’s to help guide her back home.
---
Meanwhile, the person who Nepgear, Rom and IF were sitting by at the concert had walked into a coffee shop of sorts that was on Leanbox. She hooked up a small mini-camera to her laptop, uploading some info about 5pb. onto it. She then opened up Sochat, putting on a headset and getting on contact with somebody.
-So… how did it go?- a voice asked from the other side of the call.
“It went well… I was able to get info on 5pb., she is a performer that normally does concerts on Leanbox. She has a guitar for her main weapon, and is actually able to use her voice to hypnotize people, though she doesn’t use it very often.” the person told who she was calling, showing various pictures of 5pb. via the call.
-Good. Now then, get more info on the little helpers of the CPU, and report back to me ASAP.-
“Hai,” the person nodded, closing the call and walking off.

Neptune (Narrating): Next time on Sisterhood Stories…
Histoire: I’m so sick and tired of Neptune acting like she’s Nepgear’s younger sister, when she actually isn’t!
Noire: If only it was the other way around, maybe Neptune would actually do her job.
Vert: Or, if Nepgear was actually the older sister, she could get Neptune to work..
Neptune (Narrating): Nepu… I don’t like the sounds of that…
Nepgear (Narrating): They have a point you know…
Neptune (Narrating): Oh be quiet you!
IF: Why’s Neptune claiming she’s Nepgear’s younger sister?
Histoire: Well… uh…
Neptune: Onee-chan, help me!
Nepgear: On my way, nee-chan!
Neptune (Narrating): Nepu! Something bad may happen!
??? (Narrating): Who knows… it sounds interesting…
Neptune (Narrating): Eh? Who was that?
Nepgear (narrating): Tune in next time to find out!
Episode 3: Sisterhood Switcharoo
Neptune & Nepgear (narrating): Keep calm and game on!
“So Nep Jr. what do you wanna do first? Play some video games? Eat some snacks? Watch cartoons?” Neptune asked.
“Well… I just happened to hear that Histoire finished cleaning the kitchen floor…” Nepgear smiled.
“Ah. So… a little floor skatin’ contest again? So, what’s our bet this time?” Neptune asked.
“The loser has to be the winner’s servant for the rest of the day,” Nepgear responded.
“You’re on!”
With that, the two hurried for the kitchen, now only in their socks, smiling and ready to get started, with Nepgear readying a timer.
“Okay Onee-chan, you start off. Ready… GO!” Nepgear stated, with Neptune moving off, skating around the kitchen.
With this, Neptune decided to show off, spinning around like a ballerina, but she eventually got dizzy and lost balance. But she continue skating around, jumping for a few moments, before she slipped by a chair, falling flat on her butt.
“Owchies…” Neptune whimpered.
“Five minutes, two seconds.” Nepgear stated.
“Aww… I lasted a lot shorter than our best record of eight minutes twenty seconds,” Neptune stated, as she got up and switched positions with Nepgear to do their little contest.
“Okay, here goes,” Nepgear muttered before she started skating like a pro olympic skater!
She managed to move around swiftly and gracefully like a dancer, before eventually actually incorporating some dance moves into her skating, such as a tango and salsa. She eventually stopped and posed gracefully, with Neptune in total shock at the time.
“Ten minutes, forty-two seconds…” Neptune gawked, “And you didn’t even fall over once…”
“I win,” Nepgear giggled.
“Ah mou~” Neptune whined.
“And you know what that means, Onee-chan,” Nepgear giggled, “Now then… for the rest of the day, I’d like for you to call me your Mistress, okay?”
“You do that everytime you win, you know that?” Neptune blinked, before seeing the glare her sister was giving her. Neptune gave an annoyed sigh, rolling her eyes for a moment, before clearing her throat, “I apologize for sounding rude, Mistress. But I must ask… how did you get so good?”
“Oh. I take skating lessons with Ram and Rom the second, third and fourth weekends of the month. I do it so Blanc can have a break from them every so often… I owed her a favor, and yea,” Nepgear explained.
Neptune gave a small sigh, before wondering something.
“Well… if you do it on those weekends, what do you do on the first weekend?” Neptune wondered.
“Goof off with you. And it’s not every month, and the weekends occasionally rotate, we primarily go on the second weekend every month. But we also go on other weekends if we can. Rom and Ram are really good, and I wish Blanc could come and see them sometime…” Nepgear stated, “I didn’t tell you because I was sorta embarrassed. I thought you might think it would be girly,”
“Don’t you ever wonder where I came up with Sonic’s skating moves in Lost World? You. I saw you practice one time, and that’s where the idea came from,” Neptune admitted.
Nepgear and Neptune then sat in silence for a moment, Nepgear thinking of what to do next.
“Neptune, let’s go to our room and relax for a little while, okay?” Nepgear told her sister.
“Hai, Mistress,” Neptune responded, as they headed for their room.
---
Chapter 2: The Ticket Mistress
---
Nepgear sat on her bed, watching TV with Nepgear sitting on the floor by her younger sister, simply watching as Nepgear flipped through the channels, trying to find something good to watch.
“Onee-chan… why didn’t you schedule Sonic Boom at a better time?” Nepgear whined.
“Cartoon Network didn’t give me many time slots…” Neptune admitted, “And what’s something stupid, the first ad for the show actually didn’t air until after the first episode aired!”
“Yea… stupid,” Nepgear sighed, as she blinked for a moment, giving up after a moment, just landing on the news and muting the TV, “Oh Servant-Onee-chan… listen up.”
“Hai?” Neptune stated, turning to her sister, seeing Nepgear take off her shoes and socks.
“Massage my feet for me, please,” Nepgear told her sister.
“Yes, Mistress,” Neptune sighed, getting started. Nepgear was pleasantly surprised by how good her sister was, starting to relax at the feel.
“This is… really good… when did you get so good at this?” Nepgear asked.
“I had to do something while you were off at your mystery activities, so, I got a part time job at a Leanbox onsen,” Neptune informed, “Hey wait… those mystery activities are your ice skating practice, aren’t they?”
“Yep. Hey… that explains where you’ve been when I get back,” Nepgear realized.
The two giggled for a moment, as Neptune continued massaging Nepgear’s feet, with Nepgear feeling really relaxed as Neptune did so. Nepgear actually began to doze off a little bit, feeling her eyes start to close, when she accidentally unmuted the TV as an ad began to play.
-Welcome minna, 5pb. here! On Saturday, March 17th, at 7:30pm I’ll be performing at Leanbox, in the Leanbox Theater, showing off all your favorite hits! Hope to see you there.- the girl, who was fair-skinned with pink eyes and having a mole below the left one. Her blue hair is about elbow in length and worn straight, with bangs that stick up from the center and spike downward to frame her face. Worn over her hair is a pair of black headphones with silver and pink accents and a small black microphone attached to the left ear piece. She also has black painted nails and a black music note with a heart piece tattoo on the left side of her stomach. Her outfit is rather showy in comparison to most of the cast but as an idol, she is supposed to be appealing to the audience. It consists of a black bikini top with very thin silvery vertical lines, black ruffled lining and button pieces on the straps that have small silver spots along them. The ruffled skirt matches the top with white straps and black and pink buckles, a pink belt with a pink bow on the back and black lining of the skirt, and two smaller frilled layers of it, one being pink while the other is black. Her black boots have white strappy stripes and white and black stripes underneath, along with a frontal pink design. One boot is almost covers the entire leg with tears in the material, while the other boot is short with fishnet stocking material, resembling a garterbelt, she also wore multiple accessories, such as small below the shoulder bands with pink frills and silver music notes going around the center, a black and pink bracelet on each wrist, a black frilled choker with studs and a heart piece with her icon on it.
“5pb.-san,” Nepgear giggled.
“Oh yea… wasn’t she one of your party members when you saved me and the others from the Gamindustri Graveyard?” Neptune asked.
“That’s right,” Nepgear nodded, “I haven’t seen her for a while now, I’ll admit. Oh and… who said you could stop the massaging? Your Mistress is displeased…”
Neptune whimpered before she continued her work, making Nepgear smile.
“Don’t worry… you’re forgiven,” Nepgear informed, petting Neptune’s cheek with her foot.
“Okay… that’s kinda impressive,” Neptune admitted, as she continued. She kept it up for a moment, before muttering, “And I can’t wait for today to be over…”
“I heard that,” Nepgear responded, rather annoyed.
---
The following morning started out rather sour for Nepgear, as she heard her sister crying and complaining.
“Neptune, you are acting like a five year old,” Histoire complained.
“Histy… there’s nothing good to eat… there’s no chips, no candy, no ice cream and no sodas!” Neptune responded.
“But there is a bunch of food that is good for you… much healthier, and some even good tasting,” Histoire sighed.
“Yea, but most of it is nasty-tasting. Can’t you go out and do the grocery shopping?” Neptune responded.
“And give you an excuse to slack? No way Neptune,” Histoire blinked.
“But-”
“Say another word, and you’re gonna see eggplants in this house,” Histoire threatened, making Neptune instantly run and hide herself in the bathroom.
“NO! ANYTHING BUT EGGPLANTS!” Neptune screamed from the bathroom.
“Nice, Histoire-san. You know how much she hates eggplants,” Nepgear giggled, walking on in.
“But… Neptune is right about one thing for all of her complaining. We are running low on food. Nepgear, if it isn’t too much trouble, can you go and do the grocery shopping?”
“Hai, Histoire-san,” Nepgear smiled before she was handed a small list and headed out.
---
Nepgear simply finished within twenty minutes, though she did buy herself a little snack to eat on the way back, as she had yet to eat any breakfast that morning.
“...maybe I shoulda ate before I left… ah well, ya live and learn,” Nepgear shrugged, as she began to hum the beat to the theme from a certain game with that title.
However, as she hummed, she heard something like a car screech before seeing a black limo drive by and it was being knocked around by some Dogoos.
“Tch… great…” Nepgear muttered, putting down the groceries and dusting herself off for a moment, “Onee-chan’s not here… looks like it’s my time to step up to the plate. Yosh… Hard Drive Divinity Candidate Henshin!”
Nepgear was then surrounded by rings of data before they shattered, followed by her clothes vanishing in a manner similar to Neptune’s. Her hair grew a bit longer and some shades lighter as her gloves, boots, then main armor appeared, finishing with the wings.
When Nepgear was finished, she had hair that was almost a shade of pink, going down to her knees while her bangs and side parts before the ears also lengthen. Her eyes turn a bright blue color and her hairclip is now a round white piece with a blue center. Her primary HDD lilac glowing pieces. The top/chest part is connected around the neck while her gloves and boots are above elbow and knee length. The hair piece is black.
Nepgear flew up, holding her weapon, what looked like a gun but also had a long blade attached to it, making it look like a gunblade, starting the battle by using her weapon to shoo away the enemies away from the limo.
“Don’t worry, you’re safe now,” Nepgear assured the people inside, the enemies muttering something, “Eh, you don’t know who I am? Well… you will know my name. So listen up, and carve this into your hearts! Atashi was, Nepgear, CPU Candidate of Planeptune, Purple Sister!”
And thus, she charged in, attacking first by blasting her foes like her weapon was a gun before slashing away at them. Once she saw they were weakened, she prepared her weapon for the hissatsu attack. She then rushed in, slashing them multiple times before they dissipated into data.
“May be a five hit combo, and one of my weaker moves… but hey. Weaker doesn’t always mean it’s useless,” Purple Sister smiled, landing to the ground and turning back to normal.
“Nepgear… is that you?” someone asked, approaching Nepgear.
“Ara?” Nepgear stated, turning around to see 5pb. “Oh! 5pb., it’s been a while,”
“It certainly has. You look a little taller than the last time I saw you… just a little,” 5pb. giggled.
“Yea… wait… was that limo yours?” Nepgear asked.
“Sure is,” 5pb. giggled, smiling, “So… how could I thank you for this…?”
“Oh no. Helping people is it’s own reward,” Nepgear responded.
“Oh, I insist Nepgear. Let me see… a new song inspired by you? No… that takes a while… a girl’s night out… no, I don’t have the time… oh! I know,” 5pb. smiled, as she quickly walked back to her limo and rummaged around for something, she then brought Nepgear an envelope and smiled, “I was planning on giving these to one particular lucky person… but here. Tickets and backstage passes to my concert on Saturday,”
“Oh… thank you,” Nepgear giggled, taking the envelope, “This is just very generous 5pb., thanks a lot. I’ll be sure to be there,”
“Thank you. I’ll see you there,” 5pb. smiled, as she headed back for her limo.
Nepgear saw her depart, before getting the groceries and walking back for home. She thought for a moment about what to wear for the concert, before she took a moment to use the envelope to cover herself from the light from the sun for a moment, but noticed the shadow casted from the inside.
“Wait…” Nepgear said to herself, opening it up, seeing there were only two tickets and two backstage passes, “There’s only two?! ...I shouldn’t be complaining but… who am I gonna bring with me?”
---
Neptune just gave an annoyed groan, sitting down and doing her work, while Compa, IF, Blanc, Vert, Noire and Histoire were all watching her to make sure she didn’t go anywhere.
“...stop staring at me… you’re kinda scaring me…” Neptune told them.
“Can’t let you leave not being watched. Otherwise you’ll just bail on us,” IF stated bluntly.
“But can you not stare at me?” Neptune whimpered.
“Honestly, she acts like such a little kid sometimes…” Blanc stated.
Histoire then muttered something that was inaudible to everyone else, but Noire saw her mouth move.
“Did you say something Histoire?” Noire asked.
“Oh… it’s nothing,” Histoire responded.
Nepgear then walked through the door, simply muttering to herself as she stared at the envelope in her hands.
“Oh Nepgear, you’re back,” Histoire stated, taking the grocery bags from Nepgear, before she noticed the envelope, “Oh? What’s that?”
Nepgear blinked for a moment, confused until she remembered the envelope.
“Oh, uh… this? Uh… do you want the short version or the long version?” Nepgear asked.
“The version that’ll get us your answer as quick as possible,” Noire stated.
“Okay… uh… I protected 5pb. from an attack, and she gave me tickets and backstage passes to her concert,” Nepgear explained.
“No way!” everyone gawked.
“But… she only gave me two…” Nepgear informed, “But I still have five days to decide who I want to go with me,”
Nepgear then walked away to hide the tickets and passes in a safe spot until she made her choice, making everyone in the room blink for a moment.
“Nepgear is certainly a lucky little girl,” Neptune stated.
“I’d love to go and see the concert,” Compa admitted.
“Heh. Get real Compa, there’s nobody here who’s a bigger 5pb. fan than me,” IF stated.
“...really Ai-chan?” Compa blinked.
“What?! I’ve only gone to all of her concerts since… her debut!” IF stated.
“I remember seeing you there actually,” Vert admitted, “But you’re not getting that ticket IF,”
“Like you’re gonna get it,” Neptune stated, “I’m her big sis. So, Nep Jr.-nee-chan is gonna invite me for sure,”
“What makes you so sure about that?” Noire asked.
“Minna, just let her decide who to pick. I’m sure we’ll be able to get tickets ourselves,” Blanc insisted, as she simply blinked for a moment, “And thus, I’m heading home/”
---
Later that evening, Blanc decided to look through the sites to buy tickets for herself and her sisters, knowing they’d like to see 5pb. as well.
“Uh… Onee-chan, did anything… come in the mail, for me?” Rom asked, walking into her sister’s room.
“Oh… sorry, I didn’t check the mail. Gomen,” Blanc responded, “But I’ll check it soon. I promise,”
“Hai,” Rom nodded, as she walked off, while Blanc finally found a website with the tickets, however…
“Oh no! Sold out?!” Blanc gawked, “No… it can’t be. That means the only ticket left is… Nepgear’s second one… ugh… I can’t believe I have to resort to begging and bribery to get to that concert… better not let those little pests learn that the concert is sold out.”
“Too late!” Ram shouted, standing by her sister’s doorway with a smirk on her face, “I know that Nepgear’s got the only ticket. And it’s gonna be mine, all mine!”
“Ram, please calm down. You’re so hot tempered and… weren’t you the one who assumed that Nepgear was an ‘evil goddess’ back when you first met her?” Blanc responded.
“Uh… w-well… th-that was… shut up! I’m getting that ticket!” Ram told her sister.
Meanwhile, Rom was simply sitting by the TV, simply looking at the TVs recorded shows for playback, just trying to find something to watch, not hearing what her sisters were talking about.
“...when is that gonna get here?” Rom muttered to herself.
---
The date soon became the 16th, one day before the day of the concert, and Nepgear had still yet to make her choice. Currently, the purple haired girl was fast asleep, giggling at whatever she was dreaming of, when the sound of someone walking in caused her to wake up.
“Huh? What the…?” she muttered, looking around, when she saw Neptune walk in, carrying a plate with her.
“Good morning, dear Mistress. Did you sleep well?” Neptune asked.
“...Neptune, we haven’t had our floor skating contest. You don’t need to call me that…” Nepgear responded.
“Does it really matter? You’re my darling little sister, and it doesn’t matter if we have our contest,” Neptune stated, putting down a plate of pancakes and a glass of strawberry milk.
“Aww… these are my favorites. Thanks Neptune this is really sweet… to sweet. What do you want?” Nepgear asked.
“Does an older sister have to want something to do something nice for her younger sister?” Neptune asked back.
“...not always,” Nepgear shrugged, before she glanced to her calendar, which had the next day circled, and the word ‘concert’ written on it, “You want the extra ticket, don’t you?!”
“...am I that transparent?” Neptune asked.
“I’m sorry Onee-chan, but I don’t know who I’m giving it to yet. And you doing this for me didn’t help… but I am thankful for the food,” Nepgear admitted, as she began to eat.
---
Later, Nepgear walked over to what was essentially hers and Neptune’s office, Histoire hovering above her desk.
“Oh, hi Histoire. I’m just about ready to do my workload for the day,” Nepgear smiled about to pick up some paperwork.
“Oh no, no need for that, dear. In fact, you don’t have to work for the next two days either,” Histoire smiled.
“...is that why my pile is bigger?!” Neptune snapped.
“Well, someone has to pick up the slack while she takes the break,” Histy teased Neptune.
“Histoire-san… that’s not really fair and… is this your attempt to get the ticket?” Nepgear responded.
“Eh?! H-How’d you…?”
“Onee-chan already tried to get it. But… can you two just let me think, extra favors aren’t really helping,” Nepgear told them.
“Hai,” they nodded, as Nepgear walked off to get a snack.
“...that ticket is mine Histy!” Neptune told Histoire once Nepgear was out of earshot.
“Who said it’s yours? Especially if your workload is so big.”
“So, you’re pullin’ a Cinderella on me? Not cool Histy,” Neptune stated.
---
Almost two hours later, Nepgear sat outside and looked at the sandwich she was making for herself, taking out the ketchup and mustard, shaking the containers so she could get a good squirt.
“Okay… hmm… man… who should that ticket go to…?” Nepgear muttered, as she began to squirt ketchup on her plate, “There’s Onee-chan, IF-chan, Compa-san, Histoire-san, Noire-san, Uni-chan, Blanc-san, Ram-san, Rom-chan, Vert-san… well… uh… uh… maybe I could give somebody else my ticket… but still, that’s eight people who won’t be happy…”
“Uh… have you decided?” Histoire suddenly asked Nepgear.
“NO I HAVEN’T!” Nepgear shouted in annoyance.
“No… on your condiment. You’ve been squirting the plate for a few minutes now, and I kinda need some for my lunch,” Histoire explained.
“Eh?” Nepgear responded, looking down at her plate, realizing she had made a mess with the ketchup while she was thinking out loud, “...yea. Sorry.”
---
Nepgear had soon walked off from her home to continue thinking while she ate her lunch… or at least was going to, when Compa smiled at her, walking over.
“Hi Nepgear-chan, I just wanted to say you look really nice today, but… you know… I think you could look better,” Compa admitted, making Nepgear turn to her for a moment.
“Uh… okay? Can this wait, I’m kinda hungry for lunch…” Nepgear stated, about to start eating, when Compa sat down by her, “And no it can’t… ugh…”
“Don’t you think you should get a small trim, or at least style your hair in a special way?” Compa asked.
“No thanks. I keep it long so you can tell me apart from Onee-chan,” Nepgear pointed out, “If I cut it too short, Onee-chan will try and switch places with me. She’s done it before,”
“Well… at least maybe style it differently. I know a great stylist,” Compa admitted, with Nepgear realizing what she was getting at, but Compa picked her up and dragged Nepgear off, causing Nepgear to accidentally let her lunch go flying into the garbage can.
“Oh, COME ON!” Nepgear whined.
---
Soon, Nepgear was at a hair stylist that Compa was friends with, having her hair done.
“Another reason I don’t like getting my hair done… I really just don’t want to sit still while others have their hands on my head…” Nepgear told Compa.
“Just relax a little, it’s a lot of fun,” Compa giggled, having her hair trimmed a little bit, while barely noticeable, it was a nice trim.
In the meantime, Nepgear was having her hair done in a rather unique style, but she couldn’t see it at first, only knowing that people were tugging at her hair for a bit, making her wince a little in pain. After they stopped, they held up a mirror, showing that Nepgear’s hair was now done in an odango style.
“...ara? Where have I seen this before?” Nepgear said to herself, as Compa paid for it.
“I thought you’d like it,” Compa giggled, “So… uh… how about we talk dresses?”
“...wait a second. This is your attempt to get the extra ticket! Grrr! COMPA! I’m not sure who to give it to, and this isn’t helping me!” Nepgear shouted, running off, leaving Compa blinking for a moment.
---
Nepgear gave an annoyed groan, hearing her stomach rumble, she held her stomach for a moment, when IF walked up to her.
“Oh hey. Have you seen Nepgear? I’ve been meaning to talk with her for a little,” IF stated.
“IF… it’s me, Nepgear,” Nepgear informed. IF squinted for a moment, gasping for a moment.
“Gear?! When did you get an odango hairstyle?” IF asked.
“Blame Compa for it. She made me get my hair done, and part of her silly attempt to get the other ticket. And right now I’m not really in the mood to talk, I’m starving… I had breakfast almost two hours ago,”
IF began to think a little bit, before she took Nepgear’s hand and guided her for the train bound for Lowee so they could get food.
---
“Ramen?” Nepgear asked, confused why IF picked that place to eat, “We have good noodle places back on Planeptune… so why come here?”
“Because this ramen is the best in all of Gamindustri,” IF smiled as she placed in an order for them both, with IF getting a plain bowl with some soy sauce on it, while Nepgear’s had beef, broccoli, some rice and a small dash of soy sauce, just the way Nepgear liked her ramen.
“Oh… it looks so… yummy-tastical…” Nepgear giggled, smiling as she reached for some chopsticks, and noticed there were some dumplings set up as well, “Oh… this all looks so good! I can’t wait to eat it and… wait a minute…”
“Don’t wait, your food will get cold,” IF stated, slurping down some ramen.
Nepgear was silent for a moment, looking at IF suspiciously, not sure how to react or if she should just shut up and start eating, since she was starving, and it was her favorite… but she just looked at IF, and then at all of the food she had.
“You’d never order this much food for anybody unless you wanted to ask a favor and… it’s the ticket, isn’t it?” Nepgear asked.
IF was silent as she finished a noodle and then looked at Nepgear, “Look… I’ve gone to all of 5pb.’s concerts… and I’ve just been so busy practically babysitting your sister that I couldn’t order the ticket for myself… so please, please, please! At least consider me…”
Nepgear just sighed and looked to her food, “...well… you are… or maybe were… I’m not sure yet… high up on my list for my choice. Look… I’m just not sure, and… *sigh* just, let me think, okay? You’re probably the last person I’d ever see begging…”
“Maybe, but… can you just consider it?” Compa asked.
“Just… no more favors, okay?” Nepgear responded, “No extra favors, and I’ll consider you, okay?”
“Seems fair, “IF smiled, as Nepgear sat there, “Uh… are you going to eat? I bought all that food for you… so…”
Nepgear gave a blink, and then just began to eat all of the food IF had ordered for her, before accidentally burping, she began to wipe her mouth with a napkin, rather embarrassed about it.
“Okay, you are totally Neptune’s sister,” IF laughed.
---
Later, as Nepgear walked around, now at Lastation to look at the machinery.
“Man… Lastation always looks so nice. Maybe I could build something for Onee-chan… something that would make her… more… uh… what’s the right word?” Nepgear muttered.
“Un-slack-erish?” Noire asked, walking over.
“Oh! Noire-san!” Nepgear gawked, as Noire guided her along to her home.
---
“So… I was looking for somebody to test out the prototype for a big PS4 game… so, why not you?” Noire smiled, handing Nepgear a controller, and taking out the disk, which Nepgear saw, and gasped at.
“That’s… Kingdom Hearts III…” Nepgear gawked, “That beta still isn’t even finished…”
“I just want to keep the audience in suspense… especially given… ahem… hackers…” Noire stated, “Everything here, top secret. So… how about testing KHIII for me?”
Nepgear reached for the controller, but stopped, realizing what was going on.
“Wait… you too, Noire? Really? You’re using hype to try and get the ticket?! You doing these extra favors for me isn’t helping! And if you want a prototype tester, get Onee-chan or Vert-san!” Nepgear shouted, about to run off, when someone began to tug on her odango hair “Ite… ite ite…”
She looked to see it was Uni, who led her outside and began to walk with her.
“Uni-san… let go of my hair!” Nepgear told her, wincing in pain as Uni let go, and put a shoulder around Nepgear, “Thanks… owie…”
“Sorry about that. But I needed some way to get you over here so we could talk,” Uni stated, “Older sisters can be such a pain at times, can’t they?”
“...eh?” Nepgear blinked, “What’re you talkin’ about? I mean… sure, Onee-chan’s a little lazy, but I love her, and you love your sister,”
“I said ‘at times’ didn’t I?” Uni responded, “But seriously, Neptune’s lazy, Noire’s too much of a workaholic, Compa and IF both have jobs, Histoire’s just… Histoire, Vert would just probably fall asleep, Blanc would just be staring at a book the whole time, and Ram and Rom… eh, I don’t know what they’d do. But really, I’m the only one mature enough to go to a concert with you.”
“...If this is about my ticket, the answer is no, I still l need to think it over, and while you did give me some reasons… I have to think for myself,” Nepgear stated, as she ran off quickly, making she her new hairstyle wouldn’t drag behind and let Uni catch her again, “And at least the others were trying to do something that wasn’t slinging mud at somebody else!”
Nepgear ran as fast as her legs could carry her on foot, she was getting really drained from having to run all day, eventually stopping when she thought she was safe. However, where she stopped just happened to be the train bound for Leanbox.
“Oh goodness… I accidentally got into a train… well… at least Vert-san won’t be pestering me for the ticket…” she sighed with relief as she soon sat down to catch her breath.
---
Nepgear was soon walking around Leanbox, enjoying the fresh air of the area, finding a spot where she thought she could be alone, and sitting down. However…
“Good day Nepgear-nee-chan,” Vert smiled, getting Nepgear’s attention, making Nepgear sigh a little bit.
“You know I’m not your sister… you really need to stop joking about that in front of others…” Nepgear stated.
“You could be my little sister. Just dye your hair green, replace all the purple on your outfit with green, and we’ll be sisters!” Vert smiled, causing Nepgear to groan, instantly figuring out Vert’s reasons, “And once you do, maybe we can have a little sister bonding experience…”
“At a concert? Vert, this isn’t really helping your case… plus… green hair? I’ve had my hair messed around with enough for one day!” Nepgear stated.
“I was actually about to comment about that. Sailor Moon, huh? Or should I call you Sailor Purple Sister?” Vert joked.
“Oh… that’s who I was reminded of…” Nepgear realized.
“Yea… anyways, you wanna read some of it with your ‘Onee-chan’?” Vert asked.
Nepgear then ran off, getting really sick and tired of everyone’s attempts to get the ticket.
---
Nepgear had hidden in an alleyway and was out of breath by this point, really just ready to be done with this mess.
“...maybe I should just return the tickets to 5pb., this has just been so much trouble…” Nepgear muttered, when she heard Vert gasp by her, “Okay, how did you find me?!”
“Odango hair is not hard to miss Nepgear,” Vert responded, with Nepgear parkouring her way up and above Vert, making sure to try and hide herself when suddenly…
THUD!
Nepgear fell to the ground, having bumped into somebody. Nepgear groaned, looking up to see Blanc instead of Vert, making her sigh.
“Nepgear? What are you doing here?” Blanc asked.
“It’s a really long story… what are you doing here?” Nepgear asked.
“Purchasing a long story,” Blanc responded, showing a book, “Somethin’ the matter?”
“It’s a long story… but I need somewhere to hide for a little while!”
“Oh… I see… I have a good place to hide out when I don’t want my sisters to pester me… follow me,” Blanc smiled, guiding Nepgear someplace.
---
The place the two were later in was an amazing looking place, which looked like some sort of dojo for one large half while the other looked like an office with people programming stuff, and what took Nepgear back was a poster with various characters on it.
“What… is this place?” Nepgear asked.
“This, Nepgear-chan, is where I do my planning for the Super Smash Brothers series,” Blanc informed.
“Sugoi… no wonder you said this was a safe place. Nobody would dare try and bother you here,” Nepgear giggled, as Blanc guided her to a programming room.
“Here, is where we make DLC for the game…” Blanc informed, “It’s a… very slow process, given how many gigs tend to go into a Smash Bros game.”
“So… is the Rayman DLC real or no?” Nepgear asked.
“Oh that? At the moment… no. But I have been planning to have somebody suggest another DLC character… and maybe have a tournament where the winners gets to have a character of their choice… within reason, be DLC. So… Rayman’s not outta the realm of possibility…” Blanc informed, as she sat Nepgear down by some paper, “But… I wanna hear what you think. Do you have a character you wanna see in SSB4? Write it down, and I’ll see what I can do about putting he/she/it within the game,”
“Suge…” Nepgear giggled as she thought for a moment, “Maybe Shantae… or maybe Spyro… maybe Amaterasu from Okami... Oh! Maybe even NiGHTS-chan and… wait a minute…”
Nepgear thought for a moment, looking around before gasping, looking at Blanc.
“Is this all a trick in order for me to give you my extra ticket?” Nepgear asked.
“...partly. I have been meaning to ask for ideas…” Blanc admitted, “...so… ticket or not, can I at least get your thoughts?”
“Well, I guess. Maybe-” Nepgear began, when someone grabbed her hair and ran outside with her.
---
Nepgear looked and saw she was now outside and that Ram was the one who dragged her out.
“Gimme the ticket! Gimme it, gimme it, gimme it!” Ram shouted.
“...Ram, really?” Nepgear blinked.
“I’m a HUGE 5pb fan, and Blanc-onee-chan never takes me! Come on, gimme the ticket!”
“Ram…” Nepgear started.
“Gimme it! Please, I beg of you, let me have that ticket!” Ram shouted.
“Ram!” Nepgear responded, trying to get her attention.
“PrettyPrettyPrettyPrettyPrettyPrettyPrettyPretty Please~~??!!?!?!?!?!”
“RA~~~M!” Nepgear shouted at the top of her lungs, “At least the others tried to be subtle about wanting the ticket!”
“...where’s the fun in subtly?” Ram asked.
“Ugh! That’s it!-”
“Ticket, what ticket?” somebody asked, as they turned to see a small girl with fair skin and bright chocolate brown eyes. Her hair almost matches her eyes and is shown to be very short, just framing her face. Her most noticeable feature is her giant white bunny cap. Her dress that she wore is light blue with princess-puff sleeves and ruffled lining. At her neck and the bottom of the dress is a big brown segment along with black marks and a gold buckle. Her pocket is very big, like a kangaroo pouch at her stomach and above it are gold buttons. She also wears plain brown boots and white, rabbit themed glove.
“Nepgear has an extra ticket for 5pb.’s sold out concert!” Ram shouted foolishly.
“Gust wants the ticket!” the girl, Gust, shouted, as she ran over to Nepgear, “Let Gust be your plus one!”
Someone random from the crowd pulled Nepgear aside, and soon, people began to almost dog pile Nepgear, and began to get sort of violent, as they began to tear at Nepgear’s clothes, leaving her clothes torn up, people able to see her pink and white striped panties, and all that remained were some tears near her legs and most of her top. She was able to jump up and run away rather comedically, crying the whole way.
---
Soon, news spread around all of the nations about Nepgear’s extra ticket, and the young CPU Candidate had to spend the rest of the day running and hiding from people trying to get her ticket. It was getting near 8:50pm, and thus it was getting rather cold in Lowee, due to the lack of clothing due to the crowd, Nepgear was freezing cold. She wanted to get to someplace warm, but couldn’t out of fear of people attacking for the ticket. Nepgear was now hiding in an alleyway, and she was shivering by this point. She felt somebody tap her shoulder, making her jump up in fear for a moment.
“PLEASE! L-Leave me alone!” Nepgear shouted, cringing in fear.
“Miss Nepgear-chan? ...are you okay?” a soft voice asked her, making Nepgear turn to see Rom.
“Eh? R-Rom-chan?” Nepgear blinked, surprised to see Rom, but also worried that she would be asking for the ticket.
“It’s kinda cold out here, isn’t it? Why are you… uh… dressed like that?” Rom inquired.
“It’s a long story… but I’m really cold right now…” Nepgear informed, “Just… p-please… don’t ask to be the extra.”
Rom gave a confused blink, tilting her head in confusion, “The extra what?”
‘...she must not know. Oh… thank Celestia she doesn’t...’ Nepgear thought, sighing with relief, “It’s nothing… n-nevermind.”
“Why don’t… I take you home with me? I can make sure you’re… you know… dressed for this weather,” Rom offered.
“...Th-Thank you…” Nepgear smiled, as Rom took out a blanket from her bag and used it to make Nepgear look decent enough to walk around outside.
---
The two soon arrived at the White Sibling’s place of residence, with Rom leading Nepgear up to her room, which had a bed that was big enough for both Ram and Rom, had white sheets on the gray frame, the room itself having light power blue painted walls, white floors, a small table with various toys, papers, crayons, colored pencils and stuff situated in a corner, and a stack of games in another along with a small TV and a Wii U hooked up to it.
“This is a nice room. Do you and Ram share it?” Nepgear asked.
“...we used to. Blanc placed us in different rooms a while back… it gets lonely… but… I think that it’s kind of… quieter in here, without Ram. You… won’t tell her I said that… will you?” Rom responded.
“Of course not,” Nepgear smiled, as Rom went into her closet and picked out a mainly pink and white outfit.
“Sorry, we don’t have much in your size right now, but it should be enough to keep you decent,” Rom told her, “The bathroom’s just across the hall.”
“Thanks, Rom-chan,” Nepgear smiled, taking the outfit and walking for the bathroom.
‘I still can’t believe that Nepgear wound up like that. What kind of a Pokey like creature did she encounter to cause that sort of damage…? And more importantly… why didn’t she go back home?’ Rom wondered.
As she thought of this, not sure of what might have caused this at all. She gave a shrug, and sat down to work on a little drawing she had been working on.
---
Later, Nepgear walked out of the bathroom, now wearing a pink and white version of her usual outfit, with a pink hair pin, and she tugged at it slightly, it just being a little too small for her, despite looking like her normal outfit.
“Well… at least I’m wearing something…” Nepgear muttered, walking back into Rom’s room, but she noticed Rom wasn’t there, “Hmm? Wonder where Rom went…”
Nepgear sat down and looked at some of the things Rom had in her room, some toys from some Kamen Rider and Super Sentai seasons, a few things from the Sailor Moon series, and then one of the most notable things, were the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic toys that were taking up a small corner in the room.
“Heh… pretty cool,” Nepgear smiled, as she looked to some pieces of paper, seeing on them were various sketches that, the sketches having images of various characters from the toys, along with some characters from video games, some of the more noticeable ones were from games made by the company WayForward, such as Shantae and Patty Wagon, and Nepgear noticed one sketch that had Patty in a sort of Super Smash Bros style combat, “Heh… these are so cute…”
Nepgear then sat back down, when she heard Rom walking up. She saw Rom open up the door and walk in with a small tray of snacks.
“Wait a minute… Rom… is this for a reward?” Nepgear asked suspiciously.
“...no,” Rom blinked, “...Onee-chan tells me and Ram that CPUs are supposed to be polite when they have guests… I’m only trying to be a good hostess… and a good friend,”
“Oh… okay. Sorry… it’s just, people were doing me extra favors to try and get something from me almost all day…” Nepgear informed, as Rom moved the small plate of snacks by them, “Also, shouldn’t it be ‘Ram and I’ not ‘me and Ram’?”
“...you’re one to talk about grammar, Ms. ‘what the goodness’,” Rom joked, actually getting Nepgear to laugh, “No offense…”
“None taken…” Nepgear giggled, “...Thanks for everything, Rom-chan. You’re really sweet.”
Rom smiled, before the two of them began to have the small snacks that Rom had prepared for the two of them, the two just ate in silence for a bit, before Nepgear chose to make some small talk.
“So… has Blanc ever showed you how she makes the Smash Brothers games?” Nepgear asked.
“...no. She thinks if she showed us, we may accidentally cause damage,” Rom admitted.
“...really? So… why does the new one have a 3DS version?”
“It’s… because she missed us so much while she was captive… she wanted to make something special to show us… she loves us.”
“Aww… that’s really sweet.”
“Yes… it is,” she admitted, “Even so… she didn’t take our ideas… for characters.”
“What do you mean? Who did you have in mind for characters?” Nepgear asked.
“Well… Ram wanted to have some Square Enix character… I can’t remember who… maybe… Chrono from the Chrono Trigger games… but me? Uh… have you heard of a game called… Mighty Switch Force?” Rom started, before asking Nepgear a question.
The CPU Candidate of Planeptune began to think a little bit, tapping her head before looking back at Rom.
“The name sounds familiar, but… I can’t figure out why,” Nepgear admitted, “Sorry… but I’m not sure if I remember it…”
“It’s a game made by WayForward. You hear of them?”
“Yea, I have. They made the Shantae series, without a doubt their most well known game, but they also made the remakes of games like A Boy and his Blob and Ducktales,” Nepgear responded.
“They made Mighty Switch Force… it’s my favorite game,” Rom informed.
“Oh… okay. I think I get it, you wanted the lead from that game to be in Smash Bros 4, right?” Nepgear figured out.
Rom nodded, before sighing a little bit, “I don’t know why Onee-chan didn’t listen to us about our character ideas. I mean… we helped her with games before…”
“Don’t worry,” Nepgear told Rom, hugging her, “I’m sure that she’ll reconsider,”
Rom smiled, hugging Nepgear back. The two smiled happily, before they let go of each-other, Rom then picking up some of her toys she had by the corner, showing some of them to Nepgear. Soon, it got late, and Nepgear wasn’t sure if she should try and risk going home, or stay with Rom for the night. She sighed, not sure what to do before Rom let out a small yawn, getting into her bed and sitting down, not seeing Nepgear was by her.
‘...I guess… I could spend the night, and leave in the morning...’ Nepgear thought, as she made sure Rom was tucked into bed.

Meanwhile, 5pb. was just sitting in a hotel room, simply trying to relax as it was the day before a concert. She had turned on the TV and turned to the news, but she gasped upon seeing what the big story was.
-This just in, all of Gameindustri is in a huge uproar. As usual, the tickets to 5pb.’s concert have sold out, and people are desperate. However, today we have seen the lengths of how far they’ll go as people attacked a young girl who had the only known extra ticket for the sold out concert… if anyone sees this girl…- the announcer started, before pausing, -PLEASE! Let me have that ticket!-
“Nepgear? Oh man… I didn’t realize how far this would go. Wait a moment…” 5pb. started with worry, when she saw something sitting on the desk, a smile forming on her face as she walked over to get it.
---
The following morning, Nepgear woke up with a yawn, she looked to see the time was 5:15am, and she knew this would likely be her best chance to get back home unnoticed.
“...alright, better get going,” Nepgear whispered as she got up when…
“Ms… Nepgear-...chan?” Rom asked, waking up as well.
“Hmm? Oh… sorry Rom, I didn’t mean to wake you up. Go back to sleep, okay?” Nepgear told her.
“...you going home?” Rom asked.
“Yea… and it’s early, so, hopefully, I won’t get noticed by the people…” Nepgear stated, as she stretched a little.
“...Ms. Nepgear-chan… let me help you home,” Rom offered.
“Really? Wow… thank you Rom…” Nepgear smiled, as Rom got up and quickly took out a blue robe and walked out with Nepgear.
---
The two skillfully avoided the people of Lowee and Planeptune who were looking for Nepgear, eventually, the two made it to Nepgear’s home, but went in through the back door, just to avoid waking up anybody.
“Ms. Nepgear-chan… why are you hiding from those people?” Rom asked.
“Well… I got an extra ticket to a sold out concert… and now everyone’s trying to get it from me,” Nepgear answered before Rom gave a confused look.
“...a concert? Oh. Well… don’t worry, I won’t ask for the ticket…” Rom responded, about to walk out.
“Oh, hey, Rom?” Nepgear started, before Rom could leave.
“Hmm?”
Nepgear gave a motion and whispered into Rom’s ear, with Rom blushing a little bit after Nepgear had stopped talking.
“...me? Really…?” Rom gawked.
“Yea, you.” Nepgear giggled, “So… what do you say?”
“...sure,” Rom giggled.
---
Later, Nepgear went to check her mail, keeping a hood over her head to avoid being recognized. She took out the mail, some of it being political for her and Neptune to sign, some of it was bills, but what got Nepgear’s attention, was an envelope from 5pb. of all people.
“Hmm? What’s this?” Nepgear wondered, opening it up, to reveal, another ticket! She gawked for a moment, before she looked at the letter, “‘Dear Nepgear- I’m sorry about what happened to you yesterday. Luckily… I found another ticket. Just… one more. Sorry… and I’m really sorry for the hassle you got into. Still hope to see you there- 5pb.’ ...hmm? One more ticket eh?”
---
Neptune, Histoire, Compa, IF, Noire, Uni, Blanc, Rom, Ram and Vert had all gathered to hear who Nepgear was going to invite with her to the concert.
“You can all just sit back ladies. My little sister is so gonna pick me,” Neptune smiled.
“Your younger sister? I think she’d rather be the sister of somebody more… mature,” Vert told Neptune, making Neptune fume.
“Who cares about that! I don’t think she’d want to spend time with you giant lot of jokers for something formal,” Noire responded.
“Ta hell with ‘formal’! If she doesn’t want to go with you guys, she’ll go with me!” Blanc shouted, “And what’s with that reference to a game for my system?!”
Nepgear cleared her throat, as she walked out, dressed up wearing a white and lavender dress with red bows and tassels, yellow accents, gloves, boots, and headband, “So… do I look nice?”
“Uh… is that what you’re wearing to the concert?” Neptune asked.
“...it’s the nicest thing I own… but, enough about that. You all might wanna hear who’s coming with me? Well… it is…” Nepgear informed, pausing for dramatic effect.
The room was filled with silence for a grand total of almost five minutes, when...
“Nepu… spit it out, the suspense is killing us!” Neptune stated.
“Okay… my guest will be… Rom!” Nepgear informed.
“Mou~!” the others groaned, with Rom giving a little giggle, walking over to Nepgear’s side. Nepgear gave a small giggle, before she then did something nobody expected, and moved the extra ticket she had, to reveal a second extra ticket, making everybody gasp in surprise.
“Surprise? 5pb. gave me this one after she heard of what happened to me yesterday…” Nepgear informed, “And this one goes to… IF!”
“What?!” the others gawked as IF gasped in surprise, Nepgear handing her the ticket.
“I thought it over… and I realized, you and Rom are two of my closest friends… so I figured, why not?” Nepgear giggled, with IF smiling.
“Really? ...thank you Nepgear,” IF giggled.
“Plus, me and Rom do need somebody to make sure we stay out of trouble on a Saturday night,” Nepgear joked.
“Shouldn’t it be ‘Rom and I’?” Rom joked.
“Oh Rom-chan,” Nepgear giggled, hugging her.
---
That night, Nepgear was the first to arrive at the concert, and was looking for seat A010, and making sure to remember to have seats saved for Rom and IF. She sat down, seeing she was one of the few people by the front row. She looked over to the person to her right, just curious. Nearby a tall girl with pale-fair skin and red blushy cheeks was looking at the concert stage. Her eyes look to be a light green, covered by glasses, while her hair appears to be a pale-silver color. Her hair consists of very neatly combed bangs that reach her ears, framing her face. She has strands of hair, very straight and worn down, reaching her chest. The rest of her hair loosely flows outward and seems to be about waist length. She is seen wearing a black suit-top with a white undershirt and black tie, with big black and white piece shoulder attachments and a loose white belt. An odd skull is shown directly below it, along with a thin white cloth over her lower half. The end of the jacket almost resembles a skirt or dress, and she also has on black leggings/pants, and tall white boots with X-shaped black laces.
“Hello there,” Nepgear smiled, the person next to her turning to look.
“Oh, good evening. Say… weren’t you the girl attacked for the extra ticket?” the woman inquired.
“E-Eh?! ...hai,” Nepgear nodded.
“I’m sorry to hear that…” the woman apologized, petting Nepgear’s head a little.
“HE~Y! NEPGEAR, WHERE ARE YOU?!” Nepgear heard IF shout, getting Nepgear’s attention. Nepgear began to wave, getting IF’s attention, and thus, she and Rom headed down to where she was and Nepgear saw what Rom was wearing a white dress with gold trimmings, red zigzagged accents, a red bow, matching shoes, and she had a red and white berret on her head.
“Nice to see you all… awww… Rom… you look so adorable,” Nepgear smiled, making Rom blush, as Rom and IF took their seats to watch the concert.
---
“Well… at least we can see the concert still…” Neptune stated, as they found a channel would be broadcasting the concert.
“...still… it’s a bit of a bummer we won’t be there in person…” Vert sighed.
“I know… well… at least one of my sisters is happy,” Blanc blinked.
“...Onee-chan… I’m sorry I said bad things about you to try and convince Nepgear to let me have the ticket…” Uni apologized to Noire.
“It’s alright, this time. We were sort of competing for it… but expect me to increase your workload later this week for that,” Noire told Uni.
“Noire-san… I… uh… wanted to say… that you would’ve been a choice for me if I got tickets… more than two tickets,” Neptune admitted, making Noire blush a little bit.
“Really? Aww… thanks,” Noire giggled happily.
“Shh, the concert’s about the start,” Compa smiled.
---
A sort of elevator began to rise up from below the stage, 5pb. smiling as she soon came up to the top.
“Hikare! Yume no hoshi (mitsukedasou! ) Oubaarimitto! (I dream of stars (Let’s find them) I’m over the limit)
Genkai nante koete ku yo kitto (I know I’ll keep surpassing myself)
Darenimo makenaikara! (I won’t lose to anyone!)”
People in the crowd began to cheer like nuts, with Nepgear, Rom and IF cheering the loudest.
“Ano Murasaki no daichi aoi sora (mau midori) (Purple is the land and blue the sky (Green leaves are in the air))
Nee anata to mitsumetai mouichido (nandodemo) (I want to gaze at it once more with you (forevermore))
Anata no yasashi-sa nukumori (kanjitai) (Your tenderness, your warmth (I want to feel it))
Ima wa tōkute mo itsu ka... ! (You might be far away now, but we will meet again)
Hikare! Yume no hoshi (mitsukedasou!) Oubaarimitto! (I dream of stars (Let’s find them) I’m over the limit)
Yurugi no nai ishi (omoi) kitto (gureishii sutaa) (My love will not waver (Gracie star)
Meguru ryuusei no (bifrost) (Comets circle the world (They are bifrost))
sashishimesu Genkai nante koete ku yo kitto (I know I can cross the barrier they are)”
Nepgear began to tap her foot in melody with the song and hum along with the beat, both Rom and IF noticing she was perfectly in tune with the song. Then, as the song approached the final lyric, Nepgear, unknowing stood up and sung it in perfect harmony with 5pb.
“Darenimo makenaikara! (I won’t lose to anyone!)”
Everyone cheered, and they actually all heard Nepgear sing with 5pb. due to the mike picking up her voice.
---
“Was that… Nepgear?” Vert blinked.
“Eh? That was Nepgear?” Noire blinked.
“I didn’t know nee-chan was such a good singer,” Neptune giggled.
“Well… you made that idol video with her once… so you at least had some prior knowledge about her being a good singer,” Blanc responded.
“Please… don’t bring that mess up…” Histoire requested.
---
Soon, the concert had ended and 5pb. was starting to sign autographs, when she heard somebody else singing the song she had sung while on stage.
“Eh?” she wondered, as she looked over and saw that it was Nepgear singing a few lines, “Hey, Nepgear-chan!”
“Eh? Oh! 5pb.-san!” IF smiled, as she led Nepgear and Rom on over to speak with her, “You did an amazing job today. But I didn’t expect any less from one of the best performers in Gamindustri.”
“Thanks, but I wanted to compliment someone who may be a better singer than me,” 5pb. stated, making everyone look in confusion, “Nepgear. I’m… talking about Nepgear,”
“Eh? …A-Atashi?! W-Well, I… n-no! It’s not me! I can’t sing…” Nepgear responded sheepishly, trying to hide.
“You were amazing… who knows, maybe all of the CPU have great singing voices, I may need to consider helping you all become idols someday,” 5pb. giggled, with Nepgear hiding behind IF nervously.
---
Soon, the three were on their way to get back to Planeptune, but Rom was starting to get sleepy, having trouble keeping her eyes open, so Nepgear ended up picking her up and carrying her on her back.
“Thanks… Ms. Nepgear-chan…” Rom yawned.
“Nepgear, you can really sing. Why are you so embarrased about it?” IF inquired.
“I… well I… if Onee-chan found out, I think she may try and exploit it. Remember when we did that idol video to get some shares?”
“That one that lead to a popularity debate between the four CPUs? Yea,”
“I wasn’t singing with my best voice… just because I knew Onee-chan would try and use it for her own gain…”
IF blinked at Nepgear, a bit confused at that before she saw Nepgear yawning a little bit. IF just gave a small smiled, placing her hand in Nepgear’s to help guide her back home.
---
Meanwhile, the person who Nepgear, Rom and IF were sitting by at the concert had walked into a coffee shop of sorts that was on Leanbox. She hooked up a small mini-camera to her laptop, uploading some info about 5pb. onto it. She then opened up Sochat, putting on a headset and getting on contact with somebody.
-So… how did it go?- a voice asked from the other side of the call.
“It went well… I was able to get info on 5pb., she is a performer that normally does concerts on Leanbox. She has a guitar for her main weapon, and is actually able to use her voice to hypnotize people, though she doesn’t use it very often.” the person told who she was calling, showing various pictures of 5pb. via the call.
-Good. Now then, get more info on the little helpers of the CPU, and report back to me ASAP.-
“Hai,” the person nodded, closing the call and walking off.

Heads up, there's some Japanese in this story, and minor cursing, so viewer descrition is advised.
The intro and outro were cut to fit, so, this chapter, and some others, will not contain Dimension Tripper and Go! Love and Peace.
