Third person view.

July 31, 20XX

Location: Lowee's Basilicom

Time: Morning.

(Y/n) woke up with head spinning feeling very fatigued. He tries to think why he's like this and remembers his battle with Blanc before he got knocked out. He then looks towards his hand and clenches it into a fist.

(Y/n): (Thoughts) I'm getting there. If I keep this up... I'll be at their strength soon enough.

He yawns as he gets up and notices a note on the nightstand. He then picks it up to read it.

Note: Dear (Y/n), you fought pretty well for yourself. Keep getting stronger to give me a better challenge next time. Until then, keep up the good work. -Blanc.

(Y/n) smiles seeing the note was from Blanc and how she thought of their fight. He places it back down as he puts on his clothes for the day.

(Insert opening Neptunia theme)

After exiting the bedroom he was resting in, (Y/n) tries to shake off the effects of being tired as he yawns once more. He then enters what looks like a dinning room with a long table and sees Vert drinking some tea.

Vert: It would seem you're awake now. Have a good rest I take it?

(Y/n): I guess, to think Blanc's strength would effect me that much. I know I had my aura to increase my capabilities, but damn that hurt...

Vert: You certainly gave a show. Too bad that you were asleep for five days. We tried to wake you, but after taking all that damage and using up a lot of energy as well, we thought to let you rest and heal up. The tournament ended up having Neptune winning it all. Though beggars can't be choosers on who wins.

(Y/n): Aw man... Really? Damn, I didn't even get to see the rest of the fights. Oh well... There's always next time.

Vert: Later we have a party planned today, not just celebrate Neptune's win, but to also celebrate something else as well.

(Y/n): Hmm? Like what?

Vert: To celebrate your progress in your training of course. Ever since you arrived from what the others said, you've been working hard just to get stronger in this world even though you could have stayed in the Basilicom's to stay safe. Although it was impressive you made Abnes run away with fear in her eyes. You do know she will target you now.

(Y/n): Eh, just let her try. Bet ya a hundred credits that when she see's me again, she'll regret it. As for working hard to train, I would rather see some adventure instead of fearing for my life. If someone went out of the way to bring me here into this world, there's no way they'll stop trying to come after me. That meant I have to protect myself in case something happens.

Vert laughs as she takes a sip of her tea.

Vert: Then we need more people like you then. Usually people would lock themselves away until help arrives or in this case for you, a way back home. It takes some courage to not lose hope in situations like this, but you see this experience as a blessing for your own needs. You are a good example to look at a problem, but turn it into a possibility.

(Y/n) chuckles being complimented and blushes slightly.

(Y/n): Jeez, any more compliments and you'll make me nervous Vert.

Vert giggles at his nervousness.

Vert: Just trying to let you know that you're special (Y/n). Not many, like I said, would give a thought to see the wonders of this world. You chose to experience it even after what you went through on your first day. Now, here you are, taking on an underdeveloped CPU and able to keep up with her HDD form of all things.

With that being said, the person in question's hat flies at Vert who then dodges it.

Blanc: What did you say Thunder Tits?! That's very insulting when you keep mentioning about me like that and especially in front of (Y/n)!!

Vert giggle as her chest bounces a little.

Vert: It's not my fault I was blessed with these beauties while you remained as you are.

Blanc gets mad as she gains a tick mark on her head.

Blanc: That's it! Get over here you busty bitch!

Vert begins to run away with Blanc chasing after her in a fast pace. (Y/n) then begins to chuckle at the scene happening in front of him for awhile.

Location: ???

At the secret location, Mirasashiro is kneeling down to his master.

Mirasashiro: Master... Are you sure this is wise?

???: Yes. I've grown tired of just watching. I wish to see this boy for myself.

The figure says as some armor morphs around him.

Mira: It would not be wise my lord... Please, reconsider this. I can go and-

???: Silence!

Mira flinches as a table instantly gets destroyed. He looks down afraid to look up at his master. The voice that belonged to Mira's master changed after putting on the armor with a deeper voice.

???: Do not compare what you have seen and with the information Kinja has acquired about the battle strength of that child (Y/n) for with my own. I plan on seeing how strong he is with my own power. If you question my judgement again... I will obliterate you. Is there any more questions Mira?

Mirasashiro: No my lord... I trust you will win.

The figure then begins to laugh as the lights soon go out, encasing the room in darkness.

Location: Planeptune Park.

Time: Noon.

The group later heads to Planeptune as the others split into groups. (Y/n) and Vert were grouped together to get food for the party. While they were walking back to the Basilicom, both of them decided to take a break and sit down at a bench at the park.

(Y/n): We got some good deals on the food we bought and save from having to spend too much credits.

Vert: It would seem that way (Y/n). From delicious ham, to delectable sweets for deserts as well.

(Y/n): Still though, I wish I could have seen you all fight. It would have been great to see and study from it as well.

Vert: We do have footage from each fight including yours. We can watch it during the party if you wish?

(Y/n): That sounds like a cool idea. Good thinking Vert.

Vert: Ha ha. You're quite welcome.

As (Y/n) and Vert rested and watched some children play with their families. Vert then asks (Y/n) a question.

Vert: So I heard you have a little sister (Y/n)?

(Y/n): Yeah, did Neptune tell you?

Vert: No, it was Noire. She said you had a close bond with your sister. What is she like?

(Y/n): Well she's energetic, fun, and someone to help cheer anyone up. Why do you ask Vert?

Vert looks towards the family with the two children as (Y/n) looked at them as well.

Vert: You have a family back in your world, and our friends here have sisters. For me, I have no sister to call my own to have a family with.

(Y/n) looks at Vert and taps Vert on the shoulder to gain her attention.

(Y/n): Yeah... That may be true, but I like to say my friends are like my family also. Even if they are just friends.

Vert: What do you mean by that?

(Y/n): Friends are a part of everyone's life for a reason. I like to think my friend (F/n) as a sibling to me sometimes. Even though he gives me trouble from time to time, we've known each other for a long time. Even though we met on bad terms once, but as time progressed, we became good friends to where we think of each other as siblings. Though some may not think like that, I kinda do since me and him are very close.

Vert looks at (Y/n) as he says this. She smiles due to (Y/n)'s words as she then gets up.

Vert: Come on (Y/n), let's get back to our friends for the party. Don't want to make them mad that we are running late do we?

(Y/n): Yeah, you're right. Noire will kill us if we're late. Though she does have some good sense on how to plan for a party right on the spot.

Vert: Yes. She helped me prepare once when I was too busy and had everyone contribute to prepare the party.

(Y/n): Well then, I know who's planning my birthday party next year if it happens.

Vert and (Y/n) laugh as they continue walking. Behind them, a shadowy presence emerges from the ground as if like a portal. A hand stretches from it with the figure smiling under the helmet.

???: I have you now!

(Y/n) hears a voice as he turns around and sees a dark shadow trying to envelop around him and Vert. With quick reflexes, (Y/n) reacts fast by pushing Vert away with some force with his energy to get her out of the way. When Vert looks back to question why (Y/n) pushed her, she sees him struggling to get free from a dark substance. Vert then rushes toward (Y/n) and try to grab his hand, but she misses just slightly as he is pulled towards the portal.

(Y/n): Vert!!

After (Y/n) gets pulled through the portal, it closes up and disappears completely. Vert's eyes go wide at what she had seen happened in front of her.

Vert: (Y/n)! No!!

Vert then left the grocery bags on the ground as she begins to rush to the Basilicom to tell the others what happened.

Location: ???

As a dark portal opens up, (Y/n) comes flying through it as he slides across the ground. He gets up slowly on his hands and knees as he rubs his head. When he looks around, he becomes shocked that he's somewhere else instead of Planeptune. From what he could see, he appeared to be in a crater that only had mostly dirt, but in some places, water could be found around the area.

(Y/n): What the hell?! Where in the hell am I?!

???: This place, will be your grave, (Y/n).

(Y/n) heard the same voice as he turned around to see a person emerging from the dark portal and closed it up. The person in question was wearing lots of dark clothing with some areas on his body and with armor of the same coloring. Some areas on his clothing had red lines in different places on him. He had big gloves and wore black boots. He even wore a helmet that had a red visor to cover up his eyes from being seen. Seeing this person, made (Y/n) be cautious of their presence.

(Y/n): Okay, who the hell are you? Thinking you can kidnap someone in broad daylight? How the hell do you even know my name??

???: That doesn't matter as of right now. What you should be worrying about now, is your life.

Location: Planeptune's Basilicom.

At the Basilicom, everyone was busy working on preparations with setting up tables, some plates and some banners.

Neptune: This party is gonna rock! Not only are we celebrating my win, but even for (Y/n) for how hard he's been leveling up. This is exciting!

Noire: Well don't stop working Neptune, we all have to work hard to get this party together. So stop slacking off.

Neptune gives Noire a face by pulling her own eyelid down and sticking her tongue out at Noire. Before anything else happened, Vert burst through the door and was panting from having to run to the Basilicom. Nepgear was the first to see what was going on with Vert.

Nepgear: Hey Vert, what's wrong? Also, where's the groceries you and (Y/n) had to get?

Vert looks at Nepgear with worried eyes.

Vert: Something's bad happened! (Y/n)'s been abducted!

Vert shouts this as everyone in the room looks towards Vert with shocked eyes.

Nepgear: What?! Vert what happened while you two were out?!

Vert: After we had bought the food and rested at a park, we were just on our way back when (Y/n) pushed me away from him. When I looked back, something had grabbed him as he was trying to struggle to break free. I tried to get to him in time, but whatever got him, he got pulled through a strange portal and vanished! I don't even know where he is now...

Neptune hears this as a plate she was holding crashes onto the ground with a look of worry on her face.

Neptune: (Thoughts) (Y/n)... Oh no...

Location: Crater.

Back at the crater, (Y/n) was staring at the person in armor as they said that he was going to die here.

(Y/n): (Thoughts) Just who is this guy? How did we even get to this crater ass area as well? Was it that portal he closed? Ugh... This sucks! (End thoughts) Hey buster, you better explain yourself before things escalate here. Why am I here?

???: I took you because of that.

The figure points to the necklace from afar as (Y/n) clutches it.

(Y/n): What about it? What's it to you?

???: A thorn in my side. That is all you need to know. Now, give it to me.

The figure takes a step forward holding his hand out to want to take the Crystal of Hope, as (Y/n) took a step back away from the man.

(Y/n): Like hell I'll just give it to you. Tell me who you are, now.

The figure stops before putting his arm down.

Dionix: Since you are going to die anyway, I'll tell you. I am Dionix, leader of the land of shadow and darkness. Many years ago, I had attacked a certain clan that was loyal to the four goddesses that ruled during that time. Though I was successful in destroying the Shinzuyaku clan, I was also sealed and imprisoned by them in the end. Thanks to some of my most loyal subjects, I was freed once more. Though the clan I had destroyed is gone, I had this... feeling that my plans had failed somewhat. Using the power of my dimensional rifts, I was able to sense a tiny amount of Share Energy emanating from a certain dimension. That dimension, is your world.

(Y/n) looks at the man now called Dionix with wide eyes as his dimension was mentioned.

Dionix: If you give me the necklace, I can send you back to your world. You can return to your home, your family and your life will continue on as normal. If you don't, I will attack as I play around with you. Toying with you as you succumb to my power. After you die, I'll take that necklace from your dead corpse and take glory of my victory. So what do you say? Shall we do this the easy way, or the hard way?

(Y/n) looks down as his face is covered in shadow as he then looks up with eyes full of determination.

(Y/n): So you're the reason why I got pulled into this dimension huh? Histoire had told me about the clan you mentioned being destroyed. If I'm also correct on this, that must mean you're the master Mira and Kinja are talking about. If so, that means you're the reason behind the new monsters that are popping up. Am I wrong?

Dionix laughs at the deduction (Y/n) came up with.

Dionix: That's right. The results Kinja were able to get for me are astounding. Too bad that facility is gone now. I'll be able to look past what you did for that as well if you hand me-

(Y/n): Just shut up you psycho!

Dionix stops talking as he frowns behind his mask.

(Y/n): You expect me to hand something like this to you?? After all the damage and harm you've caused to this world?! Like hell I'll let you take this necklace from me! Even if I did hand this to you, you're going to just kill me anyway! I'm not stupid to fall for a lie like that!

Dionix smile under his helmet as the decision was made. He summons a weapon as a dark mist morphs moves around his hand. The mist then expands further in a straight line and then solidifies to make a sword. The blade was dark while the handle looked like it was made of gold.

Dionix: I was hoping you would fight. Now I can judge to see what you can do. Prepare yourself.

(Y/n): Neat trick. Don't think smokes and mirrors can save your ass from getting a beat down magic man.

(Y/n) then summons his katana and tosses the sheath away to then get into a stance. The sheath dissipates after it hits the ground, going back into (Y/n)'s inventory. With both (Y/n) and Dionix staring each other down, they soon charge towards each other and clash their swords together.

Location: Planeptune Basilicom.

After hearing (Y/n) had disappeared, the team began to think of some possibilities for his abduction.

Neptune: Could it be that he was captured for ransom money? He basically defended us from Abnes's wrath on her live broadcast by taking the heat on himself.

Nepgear: She may be a monster when causing insults to others, but not that kind of monster sis...

Noire: Ugh! We're getting nowhere! Here we are trying to figure out why he was abducted and we can't even figure out who did it!

IF closes her cell phone and sighs in frustration.

IF: I've tried many times to contact (Y/n) on his communicator, but even that isn't working... If only we had a way of locating him.

As the others thought about what to do, Nepgear remembered something.

Nepgear: Wait! We do have something to find him with!

Everyone looks towards Nepgear as she pulls out her N-gear and plugs it into the computer nearby as a projection screen slides down from the ceiling.

Nepgear: I remember Histoire telling me and Neptune that she put a tracking chip in (Y/n)'s clothes. She put the chip in while strengthening the clothes he had bought before giving the clothes to him. If I can hook up the chip's tracking system with the computer...

As as Nepgear says this, a projection on the screen began to track where (Y/n) was. It pinpointed to a deserted island where a huge crater was at.

Neptune: Alright! That's my Nep Jr. with all her smarty smarts.

After the tracking chip finished tracking where (Y/n) was, satellite feeds came in showing (Y/n) fighting against someone in dark armor. (Y/n) tries to take a slash downward at the person, who dodges out of the way. The person then tries to attack (Y/n) from behind, but (Y/n) rolls forward to dodge the attack and turns around quickly to block another sword swinging aimed at him from above.

Ram: There's (Y/n)! But, who is that guy?

Blanc: Whoever it is, I think that's who kidnapped (Y/n).

Rom: He looks scary...

The others watch as the fight continues on with (Y/n) and the person in armor separate.

Location: Crater.

After (Y/n) and Dionix separated, they began to stare each other down again.

(Y/n): Not bad for some guy in creepy ass armor. Aren't you even hot under that crap?

Dionix: This armor is made from my own power. For years I have used this armor in many battles, whether in the hottest day, or in the coldest night. Whether my enemies see me or not, they all die in the end.

(Y/n): Well jokes on you, I don't plan on dying in a place like this. So return me to my friends or we do this my way.

Dionix: Cocky little brat aren't you? Then let me show you something.

(Y/n) raises an eyebrow at what Dionix says. Dionix then vanishes from his vision making him shocked.

(Y/n): What the-?! Where'd he go?!

(Y/n) looked around hard for where Dionix went. Before he knows it, Dionix appears instantly in front of (Y/n) and punches him in the cheek to send him flying away. (Y/n) slides across the dirt on his back and stops. (Y/n) groans as he then rubs his now aching cheek from the punch Dionix did as he gets back up.

(Y/n): Neat trick you did there... I couldn't even see that coming in time...

Dionix: That was my speed. I moved faster than you could perceive with your eyes. Making you blind to my movement.

(Y/n): Well let's see you try dodging this then!

(Y/n) then charges his energy to his left hand and throws it forward to send a few Energy Shots towards Dionix. The blasts hit Dionix as the dirt kicked up from the blasts that went off on impacts. After the smoke clears, Dionix is nowhere to be seen. (Y/n) looks around to see where Dionix went, but soon gets punched in the gut and face once more. (Y/n) is once again, knocked away by the punches, but recovers and lands on his feet this time as he kneels down on one knee.

(Y/n): Okay, now this is getting ridiculous.

Dionix: Blame yourself boy. Only you are to blame for being weak. You're a fool who should have chosen the easy way out of this.

(Y/n) becomes serious as he then gets back up.

(Y/n): Alright. You think I'm a weak fool huh? Then come at me if you're so full of yourself.

As Dionix vanished in his speed towards (Y/n), (Y/n) channeled his energy to his fist and punched the ground with his Seismic Slam. As the earth began to shake the ground around them, as Dionix began to lose his footing and slowed down while (Y/n) channeled his energy to his fist to deliver a hard punch to Dionix. The attack sends Dionix backward as he regains his footing with the earth around them settling down again.

(Y/n): How do like them apples asshole?

Dionix smiles as (Y/n) was prepared for that attack this time.

Dionix: Nice moves brat. To think an energy enhanced punch could make me stumble on the ground. Clever.

(Y/n): Had to keep you from vanishing from my sights. I was getting tired of having to be cautious of where you'll come from. But don't worry, I still have more tricks where those came from.

Location: Planeptune's Basilocom.

The group continues to watch the fight progress as most are paying attention super carefully on what happens.

Neptune: Alright (Y/n)! That was a nice counter attack!

Noire: Will you be quiet! We're trying to listen to what's happening! Also this isn't a game Neptune. Did you girls see how that armored man moved? That wasn't just any regular speed. He looked like a blur to us because of our combat experience, but it's different for (Y/n).

Blanc: I agree. From what we saw, (Y/n) couldn't see him moving that fast. Meaning, if (Y/n) didn't use his energy like that, more damage would have been dealt to him in the same fashion.

Neptune: Oh, don't be such spoil sports! I'm sure (Y/n) can handle it. This is (Y/n) we're talking about here after all!

Vert: Let's just hope you're right Neptune...

The others sigh as they return to the battle on the screen.

Location: Crater

Dionix looks at (Y/n) as he chuckles to himself.

(Y/n): Hey, what's so funny?

Dionix: I'm laughing at how the situation is.

(Y/n): What do you mean by that?

Dionix stops laughing as a small dark aura begins to surround Dionix.

Dionix: I'm laughing because, I haven't begun to show you true fear.

(Y/n) looks at Dionix weird as his enemy began to create a dark mist in his hand.

Dionix: Let the real torture... begin!!

Dionix throws the smoke ball in his hand at (Y/n) and tries to block it, but instead of doing damage, it obscures his vision and spreads around the area.

(Y/n): The hell? What is this?? What did you-

Before (Y/n) could finish what he was going to say, he got hit by an invisible target. Each punch made to (Y/n) kept throwing him around like a toy and unable to see where the attack is coming from. He then gets smashed into the ground beginning to feel pain as he uses his healing skill to heal up his wounds.

(Y/n): (Thoughts) Crap! I'm getting knocked around in here! Got to get out of this mist!

To make an attempt to get out of the mist, (Y/n) focuses his energy to his defenses to weaken the damage made to him next time. When he gets punched, he felt some damage, but didn't get knocked back as much due to the increase in defense. He begins running in some direction only to be knocked down a few feet after.

(Y/n): Alright fine. If you won't let me leave, then I'll make the mist leave instead.

(Y/n) then begins to channel his energy to his hands and pulls them out wide. Upon impact of his hands coming together, it creates a force of wind as the mist begins to separate and clear his vision again. (Y/n) breathes for a few seconds to get his heart rate down as Dionix stands three meters away from him as Dionix chuckles at how the fight is going.

(Y/n): (Thoughts) Great... The more I fight this guy, the more I have to expend my energy... If he keeps this up like this, I won't be able to last for long. Time actually get serious and show him what I have to match his with my own. Been wanting to try something new since I have two weapons... Might as well try now.

(Y/n) stands there as he tosses his sword to his left hand. He then begins to focus and then summons the Sapphire Spirit Blade into his right hand. With both swords in hand, (Y/n) begins to dual wield two katanas. His energy increases as he now begins to lose stamina while he holds the Sapphire sword.

Dionix: Dual wielding? From reports, you only focus on wielding one sword.

(Y/n): That may be true, but I figured, why not experiment a little while I fight. Got to try something you know.

Dionix: No matter. It will not make a difference in the end. What good can you do to possibly avoid your fate?

(Y/n): I may not know how, but I sure as hell can try!

(Y/n) then activates his Multi-Slicer to send a volley of energy slashes towards Dionix. Due to the numbers, Dionix knew he couldn't dodge it and chose to block them as the dirt around him kicked up. What Dionix didn't expect to happen next was (Y/n) coming through the smoke with (A/c) aura around him to deliver a kick to his chest hard as it sends him flying backwards. Dionix then crashes into some rocks as they fall on top of him. But as expected he emerges from the rocks with some scratches to his armor from the damage. (Y/n) walks slowly towards him as he makes a statement with his aura around his body.

(Insert ending theme of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure here) ~ Courtesy of Neptune ~

(Y/n): Don't underestimate me... When I get serious, you better drop your act of showing off. Because as of this moment... I plan on winning this fight and returning to my friends.

After (Y/n) stops walking, he and Dionix stare each other down as the fight begins to escalate while the others view the fight from the Basilicom. Will (Y/n) be able to put up a fight against Dionix or will he meet his end in this fight?

To be continued...
