(AN: You thought there wouldn't be another chapter today, but it was I! The determination of writting)

Leanbox - Nero POV

I was doing the check of all need for the party that Sis organized.

Talking about her, she was doing a raid with her guild on 4 godess online, it was unexpected so she had to be there or she would have lost the trust of her online friend.

I told her it was okay for me to do the check while she play and here we are

I was in the main room looking for everything, while the door opened, revealing Sis, and the other, with Compa and IF

Vert: Is everything prepared Nero?

Nero: Almost! I need to buy groceries, and clean the room!

Noire: We can't let you do all the work, so we should help you

Nero: Thank you, it would have been hard if i do it all myself *laugh*

Noire: Okay! Me, Blanc, Neptune, Vert, Uni, Rom & Ram will clean, while Nero, Nepgear, Compa and IF will do groceries! 

Neptune: Why do you act like your the leader suddendly? 

Noire: Because we can't let you be the leader after all

Neptune: Neppu?! How could you?! The author didn't event gave me my moment, even though i'm the protagonist!

Author: No you're not the one for this story, and the other one that will come, and you're not fit to be a leader when not transformed

Noire: See? Even the author himself said that you are not the leader, so get to work!

Author: *whispering to Neptune* Don't worry you will have a good moment on the next arc 

Neptune: *whispering* I hope you do!

Timeskip - Shop - Nepgear POV 

We just finished buying the groceries for the party, Nero was so excited about it, and showing us the last creation of Leanbox

As we were talking, i see Compa talking to a rat, that tried to get a little crystal

Nepgear: what is this?

As i touched the crystal, i felt all my energy being taken away from me, as i was about to fall, Nero caught me

Nero: Are you okay?

Nepgear: Y-Yeah, just a little weak that's all

Rat: Give me that!

The rat take the crystal and flee in a alley, without IF and Nero looking at him, suspicion on their eyes

IF: Compa, did you know him? 

Compa: No but he seemed to be a nice guy

Nero: We should head back to the Basilicom, the other should be finished with cleaning

All: Okay!

Timeskip - Basilicom - Nero POV

As the party started, i asked sis when we are going to show everyone our last creation

Vert: I'm going to show them right now

https://youtu.be/YFZwSxCud0Y

As everyone was enjoying themeselves, sis was called by a maid telling her the situation on a island of our nation

Vert: I understand

Everyone, i'm sorry to tell you this but the party must be stopped for now

Blanc: Why?

Rom & Ram: Yeah it was so fun!

Vert: I'm sorry but i was told there were monster spawning on a island of Leanbox. So i have to Clean it before we can continue the party

Neptune: Then i'm coming with you!

Noire: Me too, it will be fatser if i go after all

Neptune: You just want to make friend, lonely heart

Noire: I told you before i have friend!

Blanc: I'm going too, with these two arguing for almost nothing, it will be hard to work

The candidate(without Nero): We're going too!

Neptune: Nepgear, it's too dangerous you stay here and let big sis take care of it

Noire: Uni, you can't transform, so it's too much for you

Blanc: Rom, Ram you stay here and be safe

The candidate had a sad look on their face

Nero: Sis...

Vert: You too Nero, you sta-

Nero: I know i must stay here, but, be careful, i have a bad feeling about this

Vert: Don't worry, your big sister is the strongest after all

Nero: Sis.... *smile*

The CPU made their way to the monster location, as i had a worried look on my face

IF: Is something wrong Nero?

Nero: Ii can't shake that feeling that something bad will happen

Timeskip - after the trap of Arfoire - IF POV

It's bad, the CPU have been captured, and with all those monster, it's going to be hard to save them by myself

Maybe i should ask the candidate? No they're not ready, they still can't transform, and Nero is too much of a softie to hurt someone, even if it's a monster

Nepgear: We need to help big sis and the other!

IF: and with who? The candidate can't transform and Nero will never harm someone or something.

Nepgear: But sis will be....

IF: Don't worry, we will find a way to save them

Nero: What's wrong you two?

Rom&Ram: Where's Blanc?

IF: The CPU have been captured by Arfoire

Candidate: W-What?

Rom&Ram: No... Blanc...

Uni: Big sis will never lose! You're lying!

Nepgear: Uni wai-

Uni: It's all your fault!

Uni ran off, crying...

Nero: Sis....

Compa: Nero....

Nero:..... I'm going.....

All: Huh?!

Nero: I said i'm going to save them!

Nepgear: But we can't transform!

Nero: Just because we can't transform means we can't do it!

IF: Nero i know you want to save them, but how are you going to do so?

Nero: I will think a plan when i will be there

IF: Are you an Idiot or something?!

Nero: If it means saving Big sis, then i don't care about being an idiot the rest of my life!

IF: Jeez, your a stubborn one isn't it?

Nepgear: I'm going too then!

Rom & Ram: Us too!

Compa: If Nep-Nep is in danger, then i'm going to save her too!

Uni: Don't forget about me!

Nepgear: Uni?!

Uni: I'm sorry Nepgear, i was just upset to know that sis was captured, but i will save her!

Nepgear: Let's do our best Uni!

IF: I'm sorry to say this, but right know, you can't really do something

Nero: She is right, you can't transform yet, and you're not as strong as me, so if we go right know, you 4 will be dead weight to us

Compa: IF! It's not nice!

Nepgear: But it's true, we need to grow stronger!

Nero: And i have the perfect thing for this

Nero showed us the VR console that they used before on the party

Nero: We are going to train with this

Nepgear: Let's do it, to save our bigger Sister!

All: Yeah!

AND STOP, Chapter 3 is finished

Hope you liked it, and see you on the next Chapter (coming in a few hours)

There will be a Love interest (revealing her in the next chapter) but no special chapter about date or things like that(and most importantly, no lemon)

Chapter 4: The Strongest CPU

I like that picture so much :D
