Neptune's point of view.

Sunday, December 4, 20XX

Location: Downtown.

Time: Afternoon.

Ah Sunday, the time of forgiveness and being able to relax and enjoy a day to yourself. That's what I would want to say for both me and (Y/n) for right now, but can't. From what happened four days ago, people were wanting to find (Y/n) in either getting a picture with him, get the big scoop or just anything really. We couldn't really go to school for the time being, not while the whole reveal on who (Y/n) is was still on everyone's minds. News reporters wouldn't let people forget as billboards had miraculously set up a picture of (Y/n) saying "Hero or Menace?" That seemed to be a big debate about considering the big fight that had happened. Right now, both me and (Y/n) had snuck out of the house while we were trying to keep a low profile using disguises I chose for us while we poked our heads out from around a corner. What we had on was a pair of goofy glasses with noses, fedoras and trench coats to hide who we were. We couldn't stay in the house forever, and staying couped up for too long will get to anyone who hates being in one place. (Y/n) had a worried look and looked towards me with what he wanted to say.

(Y/n): (Whispers) Neppy...! This is your idea of being able to get around the city...?! This is-!

Neptune: (Whispers) Bup bup bup! Do not judge my idea! Have confidence! Besides, you're one to talk about sneaking, mister.

(Y/n): (Whispers) What's that supposed to mean??

Neptune: (Whispers) Mr. box man.

(Y/n) was about to make a comment about it, but refrains from saying it and growls lightly. I felt like I won this talk.

(Y/n): (Whispers) Augh... As much as I want to deny that, I can't because it's true. Talked with Noire about the facility, right?

Neptune: (Whispers) Back in Book 1, yup!

(Y/n): (Whispers) And more nonsense on what you say. Why do you say these things??

Neptune: (Whispers) It's my gimmick and way of life.

(Y/n) looked at me and sighed while holding a hand to his head.

(Y/n): (Whispers) And that was a dumb question for me to ask...

Neptune: (Whispers) Yup. Now, quit talking...! We can't stay here forever.

(Y/n): (Whispers) Hope this actually works, Neppy...

After getting out of hiding, we both began walking around as some were not paying much attention to us. It's a classic thing for people to do really. (Y/n) looked at anyone that walked by or was in a rush, but still didn't get noticed. (Y/n) looked to me with a shocked expression on his face and I giggled from him doing that. But before we continue with this side of the story folks, let's do our usual thing and go into a flashback of today on why we're even out and about in these disguises.

Flashback

Location: (L/n) Residence.

Time: Morning.

It was another day in the house where we were all living at during our time here on Earth, I checked out the window to see that the news reporters had up and left, all but one that was near the window... A woman that I remember to be Abnes...

Reporter Abnes: Little girl, do you know anything about-

Neptune: Nope.

I close the curtains immediately to end the talk with that version of Abnes, hearing her complain to open the curtains back up and have me talk to her. Iris and (Y/n) came into the room and saw me closing the windows quickly.

Iris: Something the matter, Neptune?

(Y/n): I hear a voice... And now I feel VERY annoyed for some reason...

I looked at Iris and (Y/n) nodding my head.

Neptune: A stray reporter lady is outside trying to nose around the house still. Even when everyone left. I know her from somewhere, but if I mentioned the name... Let's just say (Y/n) will LOSE his head...

Iris and (Y/n) looked at me while Iris went to the door. Before she went to go open it, she turned back to face me and (Y/n).

Iris: Could you two stay in here~? Let ME, handle this~

Feeling like we shouldn't get in her way, (Y/n) and I just gave her a thumbs up before she quickly opened the door and close it behind her. Soft voices could be heard from outside at first. But after a minute or two, the voice that it belonged to Iris began to get louder.

Iris: How dare you loiter on MY property! Stalking is a form of a crime, meaning I should call the police! But with Iffy having her hands full on trying to keep the police off of us, that job falls to me!! If you don't leave me, my family, my SON or his FRIENDS alone and get off my property... I'll shove that boom mic up your ass so hard, you'll never sit for weeks bitch!!

(Y/n) and I looked at each other with frightened faces as we heard the reporter run away with her camera crew. That moment just reminded me of the events back at Blanc's castle. Like mother, like son... They both think alike when dealing with a camera crew like Abnes... Iris re-enters the house to regain her composure and looks at both of us.

Iris: That bitch is gone now. No need to worry.

(Y/n) *chuckles nervously* Th-Thanks mother...

Neptune: Out of (Y/n)'s performance and yours Iris... You earned a 10/10 on scaring that reporter away very quick...

Iris: Thank you, Neptune.

(Y/n) sighs and holds a hand to his head.

(Y/n): Jeez... Was I like that when Abnes was at Blanc's Basilicom, Neppy...?

Neptune: Preeeety much... You do get your anger from your mother after all...

(Y/n): I don't know whether to find that as a compliment... or something to fear about myself in general...

With (Y/n) saying that, Iris does a drop kick to him and sends (Y/n) flying into a wall. Iris then stomps on over to her son and then begins to pick him up by the throat while shaking him around.

Iris: It better be a compliment... Because you have my genes boy!

(Y/n): (strained voice) Okay... Okay...! It's a compliment...! Please stop choking me...

Iris: Please stop choking me...~?

(Y/n): (strained voice) M-Mother G-Goddess...

Iris dropped her son to where (Y/n) was on his back taking deep breaths while rubbing his neck from the hold his mother had.

(Y/n): *breathes deeply* Why must this... *breathes deeply* happen to me...?

Iris: You know why. You're just that loving at wanting attention from me~

(Y/n): "Wanting attention," is not how I would put it mother...

Iris activates her devil mode again and looks at (Y/n), creating her Oni mask that comes with it.

Iris: Would you care to say that to my fist~?

(Y/n): N-No Mother Goddess!

Iris just smiles and deactivates her devil mode, returning to her normal self. Iris then leaves the room to go do some chores while (Y/n) sighed at avoiding his mother's wrath.

(Y/n): Ugh... I need to get out of this stupid house... I hate that I'm stuck in here again. But if I go... People will recognize me...!

Seeing that (Y/n) wanted to do something instead of being cooped up here like how he was last time. I didn't want (Y/n) to go through that again. Going up to him, I tap (Y/n)'s shoulder lightly and gain (Y/n)'s attention.

Neptune: If you want, I can help.

(Y/n) looked at me weirdly and listened to my plan, that plan involving looking for some coats, hats and goofy glasses you all saw at the beginning of the subplot. With that folks, I conclude this flashback and return you to your regularly scheduled sneaking episode~

End of Flashback.

Location: Downtown.

Time: Afternoon.

Walking around, both me and (Y/n) kept walking around town. Though, if we were gonna be out and about anyway, might as well and have fun. I began to pull on (Y/n)'s arm to drag him along to have him walk faster with me.

(Y/n): H-Hey! Why are we going faster?

Neptune: Just relax will you? You wanted to go out today, right? Might as well and have fun!

(Y/n) looked at me and smiled, nodding his head that he wanted to have fun too. We run by a place that looked like a jewelry store, prompting (Y/n) to stop and look in the window of it. The look (Y/n) had was that of gazing at whatever he was fixated on. I walked over and waved a hand in front of his face.

Neptune: Hellooooo~ Anyone in there?

(Y/n) snapped out of his thought and quickly looked at me.

(Y/n): H-Huh? I'm sorry, did you say something?

Neptune: What are you doing? Something catch your eye in here or something?

When I tried to look, (Y/n) would block my view each attempt I would make.

(Y/n): N-Nope! Nothing important here!

Neptune: Oh, come on! Let me see!

(Y/n): Like I said, there's nothing here for you to see! Stop trying to get around me!

Neptune: When you talk like that, THAT makes me even more curious, lover boy!

When (Y/n) tried to catch me, I dodged around him and began to look into the window. I look at all the jewelry there was to see as a certain one caught my eye before a hand covers my vision and get picked up by (Y/n). What had caught my eye was a necklace that had a controller with a jewel in it. I began on struggling on trying to get free, but (Y/n) held onto me to keep me from getting free.

(Y/n): NO LOOKING!

Neptune: Why can't I look?! What is even in there?!

(Y/n): I can't tell you that!

Neptune: WHY?!

(Y/n): Because it'll ruin the surprise I have planned...!

Hearing (Y/n)'s request, I stopped struggling with (Y/n) taking a few steps away from the window. When I feel the ground under my feet, (Y/n) uncovers my eyes and lets me go. I turned around to look up at (Y/n) wanting to get some answers.

(Y/n): I know what I'm doing is suspicious... But please... There's a reason why you can't look in there... I just... need a little more time...

I tilted my head at wondering why (Y/n) said that as he looked really nervous about being here at the moment. I wanted to know what (Y/n) was looking at in there, but (Y/n) was determined on wanting to not have me look. Feeling I would get nowhere for now, I took (Y/n)'s hand lightly into mine. (Y/n) looked at me as I began to walk backwards to pull (Y/n) with me away from the jewelry store.

Neptune: You said it's for a surprise, right?

(Y/n) nods his head to confirm what he said to me was the truth.

Neptune: Then you have your reasons on wanting to keep it a secret. I can understand that. I love surprises.

I gave (Y/n) a smile to show that everything was okay and saw him smile. To get back on schedule on what we should do today, I began to pull (Y/n) with me once again. This time, he keeps pace to not fall behind and lose his footing.

(Y/n): N-Neppy! Where are we going?!

Neptune: Explore around and find something to do of course! Keep up!

We continue this for a good half-hour until we find a café to get warmed up and enjoy some delectable sweets if we can.

(Y/n)'s point of view.

Location: Café.

After we arrive at a café, we requested to be at a far end of the building we were in to have some privacy to both Neptune and I. Neptune took her disguise off, but I chose to remain in mine due to the news playing the events of the fight I had four days back. It showed a different perspective with each news cast it had with their own opinions about me and Johnathan. It showed the whole fight that day that had its key points and other interesting facts too. Just seeing the television showing the same news about me gave me a sad expression to myself while under my disguise still. A waitress came over to both Neptune and I, ready to see if we wanted to order anything.

Waitress: Hello and welcome to our café. I'll be your waitress today, so how may I help you two today?

Neptune took a look through her menu and found something she really liked.

Neptune: I'll take a medium sized pudding please!

Waitress: Medium sized pudding, and what would you like, sir?

Feeling on not wanting to look directly at the waitress, I just looked at my menu.

(Y/n): I'll just take a medium size chocolate milkshake with no whipped cream and cherry. That's all.

Waitress: Chocolate milkshake? Okay. Give us ten minutes and I'll be back with your orders.

(Y/n) and Neptune: Thank you.

The waitress walks off to go deliver our order while I take a soft sigh of relief.

Neptune: Still nervous, huh?

(Y/n): You can say that...

Neptune takes my hand softly into hers and holds my hand softly. She removes her goofy glasses to allow me to see her actual face while taking off the rest of her disguise. Neptune then began to whisper softly to avoid any eavesdroppers from listening in.

Neptune: (Whispers) Listen... I'm not gonna lie... I don't know how you feel right now with everything that's happening... But I'm willing to do anything I can to help you through this. To be fair, it is hard at times for CPUs also when the CPU Shift Period comes around.

(Y/n): (Whispers) "CPU Shift Period...?" What's that?

Neptune: (Whispers) Caught your attention on that huh? Then let's talk about that to get your mind focused on something else. You probably know this, but I'm not the first CPU of Planeptune, right?

(Y/n): (Whispers) Yeah. I mean, Uzume is supposed to be one your predecessors, right?

Neptune: (Whispers) Yup. You see, during the time when a CPU Shift Period happens, the people in each of our nations in Gamindustri begins looking for a new CPU to watch over them.

(Y/n): (Whispers) You mean like, how a Governor or President gets elected?

Neptune: (Whispers) If you want to put it like that. But it's much worse though. For us, we have to deal with news media, social media, rumors and anything else. We have to work extra harder during that time period to show that some of us are still capable of leading our respective nations.

(Y/n): (Whispers) It can get that crazy?

Neptune: (Whispers) Yup. Even if we do our best, everyone has a flaw or two that can either make or force a CPU to lose the faith of her people. Though, there was one person I remember about losing her faith from her nation due to her personality alone...

I become intrigued with this information as I didn't think it was possible.

(Y/n): (Whispers) What do you mean Neptune?

Neptune looks at me and has some seriousness to her. A seriousness I thought I would only see in her Purple Heart form. Could it be that serious that even Neptune herself was cautious about the CPU she mentions?

Neptune: (Whispers) What I mean is... The reason why the CPU lost the faith in her people, was because of her tyrannical personality. Because of this, she lost her power and her nation in one day.

(Y/n): (Whispers) I've read books... But I don't think...

Neptune: (Whispers) It won't be in any books in Hyper dimension... This took place in another... but guess you could say the final battle happened in Hyper dimension.

I become more confused by this until I remember that the existence of other dimensions was possible still.

(Y/n): (Whispers) You know which dimension this happened... Because you experienced it, didn't you Neppy...?

Neptune: (Whispers) Uh huh... The CPU I talk about... is a person named Rei Ryghts of Ultra Dimension called "The Power of Tari." All I know is that she didn't have a form name... Just that. Out of Kurome... Rei Ryghts was the most powerful threat I've ever faced with her power and abilities. Not only that, she HAD to be stopped... If not... ALL dimensions would have been in danger...

This brought a shock to me from hearing this as someone other than Kurome that I had heard about would be less of a threat than what this "Rei Ryghts" could have done.

(Y/n): (Whispers) What do you mean by... "All dimensions...?"

Neptune: (Whispers) If Rei had been left to do whatever she wished to do... Even your dimension would have been attacked one day if we had failed. And no one would have been able to stop her...

This brought a great shock to me that even if this Rei Ryghts had finished her plans, if the CPU wanted, my world would be part of the genocide that she would have commenced.

(Y/n): (Whispers) If she had met Shalla at the time... I bet they would have been great friends...

Neptune: (Whispers) Maybe... The one who helped her do all of this was that meanie Crostie.

(Y/n): (Whispers) "Crostie?" You mean Croire.

Neptune: (Whispers) One and the same. You see, when we found out that Rei was a CPU, there were two versions of her. The one of Ultra dimension that had the power originally, and one that existed in Hyper. Crostie seemed to be able to draw Rei's power at will and carry it wherever she wanted and also her memories over each time. While I was stuck in Ultra, the Rei in Hyper had the powers at the time and was causing trouble in my world. In sixteen days time, Planeptune was getting trashed because of what she did!

(Y/n): (Whispers) Sixteen days?? How come-?

Neptune: (Whispers) Don't ask. From what I know, a day in Hyper was a year in Ultra from our worlds being separate. But thanks to some miracle, we were able to make a stable portal that connected our two worlds. So now a day in Hyper, is a day in Ultra.

(Y/n): (Whispers) Huh, you're full of surprises Neptune. As for Croire though... Remind me next time to torture that pixie. I have... "A few" words I would like to get off my chest for what she tried to do. Now that I know more of how involved Croire was... She WILL learn not to mess with me.

Neptune: (Whispers) Noted...

We then see the waitress from before come walking to us with what we ordered and set down the items.

Waitress: Milkshake for you, and pudding for you. Let me know if there's anything else you would want to order.

(Y/n) and Neptune: Thank you.

After the waitress leaves again, I sigh at what I had learned. There were even worse threats to know about besides Shalla and Kurome... A CPU from a world called Ultra dimension named Rei Ryghts was apparently soooo powerful, that she was a threat to all dimensions itself. I sighed at the thought of having to face someone like Rei Ryghts, but the thought actually scares me to think about it really. Though I wasn't able to think much until I felt a sweet substance get placed in my mouth as it tasted like pudding. I look toward Neptune to see that she had gave me the first piece of her pudding with a smile that could make my heart skip a beat.

Neptune: I saw that look you had. You were thinking something deep with what I told you, huh?

I swallowed the piece of pudding Neptune had fed to me before I spoke back to her.

(Y/n): Well... Who wouldn't with what they're told. To be honest Neptune... You're amazing with who you can take on, even when put at a disadvantage.

Neptune giggles with the compliment I gave her and smiled.

Neptune: Thanks. But no one isn't invincible you know. We all have our ups and downs, what matters is who fights by your side from the connections you make.

(Y/n): A single person can achieve little, but with those you trust and care for, you can reach the horizon. Am I right?

Neptune: Pretty much!

Neptune says that and takes a bite out of her pudding, humming at the taste of it while sighing in content at its taste and texture. Seeing Neptune happy like this made me happy just from being near her. Neptune just... has a way of always making me smile. Since Neptune gave me a taste of her pudding first, I thought I give her a taste of my drink.

(Y/n): Want to drink that pudding down with some milk, hun?

Neptune: Yeah, sure. Just- huh?

(Y/n): Wh-What?

Neptune smiled my way with a bright smile.

Neptune: You called me "hun."

I think about what I said and blushed brightly from realizing what I had told Neptune.

(Y/n): W-Well I, um that's, I mean-

I don't get another word in as Neptune had carefully moved the objects in front of us out of the way to pull on my hand to make lean me forward, as she met me half way to kiss me on the lips. I blushed harder from the kiss, feeling very heated as I slowly returned Neptune's feelings. Neptune broke the kiss, leaving me to my own thoughts until I snapped out of the feeling to look at Neptune taking a sip of my drink. When she was done, she licked her lips at the taste of it.

Neptune: Mmm~ Thanks for letting me have a sip, dear.

I froze up when Neptune said "dear" to me and caused me to blush harder. Neptune giggled at my reaction as I felt my cheeks very heated. Neptune holds my hand to give me her warm smile as usual.

Neptune: Hey, it's okay. We are dating, remember? Plus, I liked that you called me that.

I looked at Neptune and felt myself smile from saying that as I held her hand back while closing my eyes.

(Y/n): M-Me too.

For a slight second I felt a sensation of calmness as I felt a shock course through my right hand that was holding Neptune's, as both of us yelped at the shock we felt. We both rubbed our hands that felt the shock while we looked at each other.

(Y/n): Y-You felt that, right?

Neptune: Pretty much. It was like "Bzzzzt!" and I get shocked by holding your hand.

I rubbed my right hand more as I looked at it and saw the same purple aura from my battle four days ago while Neptune saw this too. I quickly hide my hand in the pocket of my coat.

(Y/n): (Whispers) Oh shit! Neptune! We can't ANYONE see this!

Neptune: (Whispers) You're telling me?! I already know about this!

(Y/n): (Whispers) L-Look, let's just ask for the bill already and just leave. I've had enough fun for today to last a while.

Neptune salutes to me in confirming on what I wanted to do.

Neptune: Aye aye, captain.

With the waitress walking around like before Neptune calls out to the waitress to bring her over we ask for the bill.. I had to get some money out carefully to leave the correct amount and a tip for her service to us. Neptune got her disguise back on so that we can hurry and get out of the building. Just when we were about to walk out of the café, a group of three people walked in with some guns, knocking me and Neptune backwards onto our backs.

Thug 1: Freeze! Nobody move! This here is a robbery!

I curse under my breath at all the possible timings this could happen and it happens while we're trying to get out!

(Y/n): (Thoughts) Oh, come on! Why does shit like this happen to me...?!

I looked around and saw the thugs beginning to go to the people around here to rob people of their possessions. When on of the thugs came up to me and Neptune, they had their gun pointed at us.

Thug 2: Give me all of your shit right now!

Not wanting to antagonize the thugs, pretend to be a helpless hostage and offer my hat.

(Y/n): P-Please sir... I don't want any trouble... I only had enough money to pay for the light meal we had... I can only give you my hat...

The thug wasn't pleased with hearing that and hits my left cheek with the butt of their gun. I hold my cheek and the goofy glasses I had on to keep my disguise up while I heard Neptune yell in pain. I looked to see that her fedora was knocked off and her glasses removed as the thug brought Neptune to the other females for some reason.

Thug 2: How much do you think we can get for her?

Thug 3: Heh. A hefty load with the color hair she has. You know how many girls have that hair? None. She'll make a good sell on the market.

My eyes went wide at hearing this coming out of their mouths. They were planning to sell women to others on the black market. If nothing happened, Neptune and those women would be taken away... Forever... And that wasn't what I was gonna let happen, at all. Keeping my hand in my pocket, I keep my glasses on and get up to give a serious look at the thug closest to me.

(Y/n): You better let them go... Now.

The thug looked at me and laughed when staring directly at my face.

Thug 2: Oh, yeah? What are you gonna do about it?

(Y/n): I'll tell you... I'll take that gun from your hands and beat YOU with the butt of it like you did to me. That friend of yours guarding those women is gonna get a beat down for telling what you punks are planning on using them for. And your punk ass friend who hit me with the door earlier is gonna be shown the way out Jerry Springer style to the street lamp outside. If you don't return everyone's possessions to them-

The thug had heard enough of me talking and decided to shoot me dead in the face, sending me backwards slightly onto my back. It was something I had hoped to happen as I had channeled most of my energy to my forehead to toughen up my skin to block the damage. The bullet broke the glasses unfortunately, but I didn't need them really. Feeling the thug had taken me out, they took their focus off of me.

Thug 2: Anyone else want to play the "hero??" If not, stay down if you know what's good for you!! Let that man be an example of who has the power here!!

Taking my hand out of my pocket, I began to sit up slowly as I had a glare on my face. I soon started to stand up and heard a few gasps at seeing me get up from a point blank shot and catch the crunched up bullet into my hand.

(Y/n): If you're planning on making an example of someone to kill, you chose a horrible candidate to choose from.

The thug turns around and looks at me with a shocked expression.

Thug 2: H-How?! Wh-What?!

(Y/n): As I was saying before you interrupted me... If you don't return everyone's possessions to them-

In an instant, I rushed up to the thug in front of me and surprise them how fast I was. I grinned at seeing the shock on their face.

(Y/n): -you're surely to regret it.

I then took the gun from the thug and hit them with the butt of their gun like I said I would. I next looked at the thug with the women, who then saw their friend get knocked out by me to then aim their gun try and shoot me down. My right hand still held the purple aura it had before as I dashed forward, catching each bullet that came at me with very quick reflexes. Each bullet felt like a soft pellet in my hand with the aura I was using to protect me from damage. Once I was close to the thug that fired at me, I showed them my hand. One by one, the bullets I had caught were crushed and fell to the ground near our feet.

Thug 3: Wh-What is this nonsense?! WHAT ARE YOU?!

(Y/n): Apparently you never saw the news... Have you?

The thug took a look at the t.v. nearby as it showed some of the events four days ago and showed my face. The thug became real scared by who I was as they knew what I was capable of now.

Thug 3: OH SH-!

I punched the thug multiple of times as lightly as I could and lifted them up. I tossed them into some tables, knocking them out from the attack. When the last thug saw me what I had done and shook in fear of what I can do and aimed their gun at me.

(Y/n): Don't. It won't end well for you if you decide to fire that weapon at me. Especially when your targets are also women behind me.

Thug 1: Shut the hell up!!

The thug began to fire at me as I raised a shield to protect Neptune, the ladies and myself from the bullets. Each bullet bounced off my shield and fell to the ground after hitting their destination. When the thug ran out of bullets in their gun, they looked at me as I gave them a glare.

(Y/n): I TOLD you not to do that.

Lowering my shield I jumped up onto a table and lunched from there to head toward the thug. I landed on the thug punched them a couple times to stun them enough to where they were dazed.

(Y/n): You punks picked the wrong day to do a robbery and to the WRONG people. Reason why? I'm (Y/n) (L/n). Some who are my friends call me the Guardian, and who you and your friends were about to try and take from me... was my girlfriend! So, like I said to your friend on what I would do, time to toss you out Jerry Springer style.

Knocking the gun out of the thugs hands, I picked the thug up and opened the door to toss the thug to a street lamp. The thug looks at me in a dazed way with myself talking to them.

(Y/n): Next time: Learn who you're about to shoot at. If you had shot the wrong person... You'd be dead where you stand...

The thug soon passes out with me looking back at the people in the café who were recording everything they had saw. I sighed as I wasn't gonna be able to hide this too.

(Y/n): Neptune, come on. We're leaving...

Neptune rushes to my side as we leave the café. Some people exit from the building to keep recording us as I gave Neptune energy to transform into Purple Heart.

(Y/n): Please get us out of here, Neptune...

Purple Heart nodded her head as she took my hands in hers to help begin lifting us up into the air and away from the area.

Location: Roof tops.

Once away from the public, I get a call after Purple Heart sets us down on top of a building. Purple Heart was shivering slightly due to how cold it was as I gave her my coat. Once I was done tending to what Purple Heart needed, I answered my phone. On the other end of the phone, was IF who was pissed from what she had heard.

(Y/n): Yes, IF. Yes, I was there...

Angry chatter could be heard over the line as IF didn't sound happy.

(Y/n): Y-Yes Iffy... I know... Trust me, I didn't want to do it... No it isn't because I wanted to keep playing as the hero...

IF was still angry that I still got involved, when she doesn't know what happened.

(Y/n): Neptune was taken hostage just before we could leave. They were about to take women away from there to be sold on the black market, IF. What was I supposed to do?! Let them take her?!

Hearing that news, there was a softer chatter that was more calm now from hearing the situation.

(Y/n): No, I stop them before they could get away. No, no one got hurt from what happened. I took each one out quick and effectively as I could with little harm done to them. I know who to use full power and little power against, Aunt Iffy... *sighs* Look, I'm REALLY sorry...

Soft chatter could be heard on the phone as there was some understanding to it.

(Y/n): Thank you for understanding why I had to do what I did, Aunt Iffy. Again... I'm SO sorry...

I hung up the phone as I went to sit down at the edge of the building and sighed. The chillness in the air made my breath visible with the difference between each other while Purple Heart sat next to me.

Purple Heart (Neptune): Sorry that this day turned sour on our "adventure."

(Y/n): It wasn't your fault, Neptune... We were at the wrong place, at the wrong time... It happens to people... *sighs* What am I gonna do Nep-

I felt Neptune pull me closer to her as she made me rest my head on her chest, making me blush slightly from how they felt. I could also hear her heart beating softly due to my ear being near it. I looked up at Purple Heart slight as she began to stroke my hair softly. From Purple Heart doing that, I was beginning to relax from how I was feeling from her soft touch.

Purple Heart (Neptune): Please don't worry about this love... We'll make it through this somehow. I don't know how... But we will. I don't want you to lose who you are from worrying about this. Okay?

Hearing the softness in her voice, I nodded my head at her words, calming down from what happened earlier. We look out to the city I lived in that had a perfect view to see everything below. From feeling calmed down and being able to spend time with someone I loved, I wouldn't want to miss a second with her at all.

Subplot. End.
