Act 2 - The Terrorist (Lickorrist) of Lowee

Location: Lowee Basilicom

Time: Night

It was extremely late at night in Lowee's basilicom as everyone was sound asleep in their beds, including the twins, Rom and Ram, the Saiyan warrior, Rain. Well... almost everyone was asleep. Blanc, on the other hand, was in her room still awake at night, and she appeared to be typing something on her computer at a very fast pace.

She then gave off a rather mischievous vibe to her, as her eyes were shadowed out with a red glowing eye. She even let out a sinister chuckle, as if she was a supervillain of some kind.

Abnes: Ga-Thunk! Time for another action packed day spent saving the children of the world!

(Fourth Wall Break)

BGM - Wii Shop Channel Main Theme

AzureSiege2001: What the fu-Abnes! What did I tell you about coming in here while I'm trying to work on the story?!! And what are you even doing here? You know you don't even appear until later on in this chapter/episode, right? So beat it, would ya? 

Abnes: Sorry, AzureSiege. But I 've got a job to do, and that's entertaining all the little children out there!

AzureSiege2001: Ugh! Abnes, please... Just... Get the fuck out... I-I don't have the energy or the patience to deal with your bullshit today...

Abnes: No can do! Think about all the children who are reading this chapter, you plan on doing something so scandalous, are you?

Quasar: Abnes, just leave the poor guy alone. You know he's got a lot on his plate as it is, he doesn't have the time to be putting up with any of your child-friendly crap, okay?

Neptune: Yeah, besides this story is actually intended for teens and also adults, not for little boys and girls.

Abnes: Wait, what?

AzureSiege2001: Yeah, she's right. Besides, I'm pretty sure that there are plenty of other fanfiction stories that appeal to a younger demographic. Who knows, you may even find one that might give you a few "pro-tips" on how to entertain today's youth.

Abnes gasped.

Abnes: Then why did you just say so? If there are little boys and girls that desperately need to be entertained, then I'm all for it.

She then runs out of the conference room, slamming the door on her way out.

AzureSiege2001: Whew! Thank god that's over. Man, what a dumbass.

Quasar: I'll say.

Neptune: Yeah, for a reporter that's supposed to be a master at annoying people, she sure is stupid.

Quasar: By the way, Siege. Do you think we should tell her that as far as fanfics go, there aren't a whole lot of them that are child-friendly?

Neptune: Ya know, he's right. Plus, there aren't really a whole lot of fanfics out there involving my franchise crossing over with Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT, or even Dragon Ball Super.

Quasar and AzureSiege2001: What about Super Dragon Ball Heroes?

Neptune: Hey, we don't talk about that here!

AzureSiege2001: Eh, she'll figure it out. Now then, if we're done with all this fourth-wall breaking, let's get back to the chapter.

Neptune: Okay!

Quasar: You got it, boss!

AzureSiege2001: Also, just be grateful we're not doing Dragon Ball Evolution.

They all high-fived each other, with a yellow background and red text that reads "Dragon Ball Evolution Sucks!!!"

BGM - Choujigen Game Neptune The Animation OST: Landscape of the Town

Neptune, Nepgear, Quasar, Noire and Uni were all heading to Lowee's Basilicom as Rom and Ram asked for the other candidates to come over, and surprisingly Blanc said "yes", and now they were all riding in a train-like carriage being pulled by a reindeer on its way to their destination. Nepgear poked her head out of the window to get a better view of the entire city.

Nepgear: Wow, it's even prettier than I thought. Y'know, I always wanted to visit Lowee.

To compensate for the wintery climate in Lowee, Neptune was wearing a mostly white hoodie dress that has a light purple hood, strings that look like controller plugs, and two huge purple and white pockets with purple D-Pad symbols on them. The sleeves have two light blue stripes going all the way down while the front of the hoodie only contains one. The ends of the sleeves and the bottom of the hoodie have dark and light purple stripes. The zipper emblem and the back of the hoodie has a purple letter "N" to represent the first symbol of her name.

Neptune: Yeah, you haven't exactly made that the best-kept secret.

Quasar: Well, I can't really blame her. I mean we've only been her a handful of times, but this is Nepgear's first time in Lowee.

Nepgear smiled and nodded at the Saiyan.

Nepgear: It was so nice for Rom and Ram to invite all of us over to stay with them. I just wish that Blanc would let them travel to other countries, so they could come and visit us too.

Quasar: Yeah, if you think about it... Blanc seems very overprotective of those two tykes, so it's only natural that she wouldn't want anything to happen to them.

Neptune: Oh, yeah. Blanc's got a real stick up her butt about that kind of stuff like that. You know, she really oughta ask Rain to help pull that thing out, before she ends up friendless like Noire.

Quasar: Amen to that, Neptune!

The three of them all giggled together, all while Noire and Uni were sitting with them in the carriage.

Noire: You realize I can hear you, right? And I got plenty of friends, dammit!

Neptune: Sorry, forgot you were there. Well, maybe hearing that said right to your face is just the thing you need to make a change.

Noire: I don't need to hear it from a slacker like you!

Quasar: Aw, c'mon Noire, don't be like that. You really oughta learn when to take a joke.

Noire *Sigh* I'm starting to regret letting you two talk me into coming on this trip.

Uni and Nepgear looked at each other and giggled at their big sister's relationship.

Location: Lowee Basilicom

A scream was heard inside the Basilicom as one of Blanc's workers had fallen down onto the floor with water everywhere, a banana peel also on the floor, and a bucket on top of her head. The two people responsible for such a prank were none other than Rom and Ram.

BGM - Choujigen Game Neptune The Animation OST: Wood Ensemble

Ram was jumping in and down in the air in excitement, while Rom hid behind a pillar with a smile on her face, as their prank was a huge success.

(A/N: I mean, what do you expect? These two may be goddesses, but they're still just little kids.)

Ram: She fell for it!

Rom: That was just perfect!

Church Worker: Miss Rom, Miss Ram! How could you? Come here now!

Ram: Run for it!

The two girls ran away from the maid, as she began chasing after them in an unhappy mood.

Church Worker: Hold it right there, you two!

Meanwhile, in another room, Blanc was busy conversing with Vert about very important matters. Reiko, Rain, and Dawn were also in the room, except Reiko had both his eyes closed and his arms crossing, leaning up against a pillar, and Rain and Dawn were sitting at the table with Vert and Blanc.

Vert: Are you sure about this? You do realize what this means? Carrying out this plan will entirely alter the world as we know it.

Blanc: I'm well aware of that. We have to make sure no one finds out about it until it's implemented.

Rain: So, we're really going through with this, huh?

Reiko: That's right. I just hope that a certain-frosty friend of ours from Lastation holds up his end of the bargain.

Ram: Run faster!

Blanc could hear both her little sisters being rather noisy outside the room and she got irritated really fast, as she had a dark shadow over her eyes. Blanc then busted open the door to try and get their attention.

BGM Ends

Rain: Aw shit, here we go again.

Blanc: ALRIGHT, YOU LITTLE TURDS! HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I TOLD YOU TO PIPE DOWN WHILE I'M WORKING?!!

Church Worker: I'm so sorry, Miss Blanc!

Rom: Hey, big sis! Rain!

Ram: Check this out!

Rom and Ram walked up to their big sister and gave Blanc a book that clearly belonged to her, and when she opened it, her mind felt like it broke like glass because it was a picture that Rom and Ram drew inside of it using blue, green and red crayons.

Blanc: This is my...

Ram: It's a drawing of you!

Rom: We got the sharp teeth just right. 

Rom and Ram felt amused and Rain kindly smiled at the little kid's antics, but Blanc was pissed beyond belief as one of her own books got ruined.

Blanc: *Growls* You've destroyed my precious book... I'LL KILL YOU!!!

Blanc's face was now shadowed at the eyes with a glowing red left eye and her teeth were fanged. This was commonly known to be Blanc's signature look for whenever she got extremely pissed off.

Ram: That's the face we drew!

Both the twins giggled and took off running with Blanc and Rain hot on their tails.

Blanc: GET YOUR ASSES BACK HERE!!!

Rain: Blanc, c'mon! We talked about this... Rom, Ram, run for it!

Rom: Run!

Back inside of Blanc's room, Vert took a sip of her tea while listening to all the ruckus going on outside. 

Dawn: Wow, Blanc really does have her hands full dealing with those two, huh?

Reiko: Hmph! 

Vert merely giggled and continued drinking her tea, with Reiko joining her.

As Blanc and Rain were chasing them both, until they all turned a corner and stopped to find Neptune, Noire, Quasar, Nepgear and Uni in front of them.

Ram: Hey, Nepgear! Hi, Uni! You guys made it!

Nepgear: Mm-hmm. How could we say no?

Rain: Hey, glad you guys could make it.

Quasar: Hey, don't mention it. I mean it's been a while since all of us came together like this.

Neptune: Hiya, Blanc! How goes it? Let's party!

Neptune stuck her tongue out playfully, but Blanc just had her usual blank expression on her face at Neptune's actions.

Location: Outside Lowee Basilicom

BGM - Choujigen Game Neptune: The Animation OST - Nep Waltz

Time passed and all of the CPUs were sitting down at a table as a group with four cups of tea. Quasar was busy doing some training, like doing push-ups, sit-ups, and squats, Reiko was leaning up against another pillar, with his eyes closed and his arms crossed. Rain was sitting besides Blanc, and finally the CPU Candidates and Dawn were all playing in the snow.

Neptune: Alright. Bet you're wonderin' why we're here. Well, we heard about this new theme park that just opened up here in Lowee. So, we're gonna crash with you and check it out.

Blanc still had a blank expression on her face and looked at Rain, then finally back to Neptune.

Blanc: Histoire warned me and specifically asked me to give you lessons in being a worthwhile CPU while you're here.

Rain: Yeah, sorry Neptune, don't think you're getting out of this one.

Neptune: Nah. That's just a waste of time. I mean that's about all I learned from my last lesson.

Noire: That makes two of us.

Blanc then turned around and looked at Quasar, who stopped doing sit ups.

Blanc: That reminds me, why exactly are you here Quasar?

Quasar suddenly started blushing and he was also sweating, while looking around nervously.

Quasar: H-Huh? O-Oh, I... Ah... thought Neptune might need... Ah... a little help in her, ya know, her CPU lessons, so... yeah...

Quasar began laughing nervously, however Reiko wasn't falling for his rival's shenanigans as he opened his eyes and walked up the group.

Reiko: Oh, don't even give me that crap, Kazeboy. You probably came over here because you wanted to try some of Lowee's delicious food, isn't that right?

Quasar froze in fear, as he read him like a book. Then, he suddenly ran to Blanc's feet and held his head in shame.

Blanc: Is that true?

Quasar: Yeah... He's right... 

Rain: Well, why did you just say so? We can hit you up, free of charge.

Quasar then raised his head in excitement.

Quasar: Wait, you serious? Sweet!

Vert: Speaking of the theme park, I've been hearing some very good things about it. It could be a lot of fun for us to take the girls and go as a group.

Reiko: Yeah, that's not a bad idea. Plus, I'm pretty sure Dawn would want to hang out with the others.

The little sisters overheard the conversation as they were all making a snowman of Blanc's face. Due to the cold weather outside, Rom and Ram were wearing different attire. 

Rom wore a light blue overcoat with white puffballs, a pink handbag and a ribbon, and a white and blue hat to match with a pink rectangle in the center. Her leg-wear consists of white tights and shoes that match her dress in design. And Ram wore a pink overcoat with white puffballs, a blue handbag and a ribbon, and a white and pink hat to match with a pink rectangle in the center. Her leg-wear consists of white tights and shoes that match her dress in design.

Ram: You mean Super Nintenland? 

Rom and Ram, as well as the others, walked up to the CPUs at the table.

Ram: I wanna go, I wanna go!

Rom: Can we, sis? Please say yes!

Blanc just looked at them blankly and closed her eyes for a second to think what to do. Then, she opened her eyes.

Blanc: Actually, it would be nice if you could take care of them.

This made everyone in the group worried.

Neptune: You're not going?

Rom: Why not? Don't you wanna?

Quasar: Yeah, Blanc? What's the matter?

Blanc: I want to. I just can't.

Dawn: Well, whatever's bothering you, we can talk about it.

Neptune: It's not 'cuz of work, is it? You've heard the saying. "Working means that you've lost at life." Now that's a piece of wisdom from a great man. See?

Noire: Neptune, some bum on Youtube said that.

Reiko: Yeah, and I don't really think that helped a lot of people from all the comments that I've seen.

BGM Ends

Blanc then slammed her hands onto the table with such a strong impact, which startled everyone for a little bit.

Blanc: It doesn't matter. I just can't go.

Blanc then left the table leaving everyone else confused, especially Rom and Ram. But then, Rain placed both his hands on the twin's shoulders and gave both of them a reassuring smile. 

Rain: Don't worry about your sister, kids. She just needs some time alone for a little while, okay?

Rom and Ram: Mm-hmm.

Location: Nuvema Town

It was an ordinary day in this small town. But then, almost out of nowhere, a strange portal appeared from the sky and out came Nappa and Raditz, looking down at the little city from above the sky.

Raditz: So, this is the place that Towa asked us to visit...

Nappa: Heh-heh-heh! So, what do you say we give these people a nice warm welcome?

Raditz: *Chuckle* Sure, just go a bit easy on them. And remember, we have to draw the attention of the Ace Force.

Nappa then had a sadistic smile on his face and then he raised his right hand with his index and middle fingers up, releasing a white explosive wave that completely destroyed the entire city, killing everybody in the process.

Amidst the destruction of the city, Nappa and Raditz descended back onto the ground, with Nappa letting out a huge laugh at the chaos he just caused.

Nappa: Hahahahaha!! Now that's what I call a blast! 

Raditz: I could've sworn I said to go easy on them.

Nappa: Right, right! Sorry about that, guess I didn't really know how much power I was using! 

Raditz rolled his eyes and looked back at his partner.

Raditz: Anyway, we should probably start finding the Anti-Crystal that was in this city. Assuming of course, that you didn't "accidently" blow it up along with anything else, that is!

Nappa: H-Hey, don't look at me like that! I said I was sorry, didn't I?

Raditz: Yeah, yeah, yeah... 

Location: Ace's Spaceship - Ace's Room

Ace was in his bedroom, laying on his bed and watching an episode of Family Guy, where Brian and Stewie appeared in the Robot Chicken universe on his 70-inch, plasma widescreen TV hanging up on the wall.

Brian: Whoa!! This is trippy.

Stewie: I should say so. We're in the Robot Chicken universe.

Peter: Will you guys move!? You're blocking the TV!

Chris: Look!! [action figures of a ThunderCat, GI Joe, He-Man, and a Transformer walk into the room]

Chris: GI Joe, Transformers, ThunderCats, He-Man!! Yay! Those shows existed!!

Stewie: How does it feel to be on a major network for 30 seconds?

Chris: *bleep* you!

Stewie: Bye.

Just then, there was a knock on his door.

Ace: Hmm? Come in.

Gwen came into Ace's room, with a somewhat serious look on her face.

Ace: Oh hey, Gwyneth. What's the matter? You look troubled.

Gwen: Boss, we've got an emergency. An entire city has just been destroyed.

Ace: What?!

Location: Ace's Spaceship - Bridge

BGM - Dragon Ball Kai OST: Unforeseen Circumstances

Ace and Gwen were walking into the Bridge, where a ton of soldiers were on the monitors, while some of them were discussing the recent event.

Ace: Status report. What exactly is going on out there?

One soldier walked up to him and saluted in his presence.

Ace Soldier #1: Sir! It just appeared out of nowhere. Whoever was responsible must've done it with some kind of nuclear weapon.

Ace: Any casualties?

Ace Soldier #1: A lot, sir. There weren't... any survivors...

Ace grit his teeth and clenched his fist tightly in frustration, at the thought of all those innocent people being wiped out.

Ace: Well, do we have any idea about who was responsible?

Gwen: Yeah, we do.

A female soldier was on the computer and she showed everyone a projection of the former city, then it zoomed and enhanced the image of the culprits responsible, showing Raditz and Nappa looking around the ruins of the city.

Gwen: *Gasp* Wait, isn't that...?

Ace: Yeah, it's them.

Everyone in the room was talking about the two Saiyans who had just destroyed the small town. Gwen then looked at Ace, and he nodded at his female apprentice.

Ace: Do we have any idea as to why those two destroyed the city?

Female Ace Soldier: Unfortunately, no. It could've been just a random attack. Though, it does make me question why they would go so far just to catch our attention.

Ace: Hmm...

Gwen: What should we do, Boss?

Ace stayed silent for a little bit, but then he began to walk out of the room.

Ace: Alright, I'm about to give our two Saiyan friends a little greeting! Gwyneth, you're with me!  

Gwen: Woah! Are you serious?

Ace: Yes... Yes I am. It's actually a good, long mouth since I've been able to cut loose. Surely you must feel the same way, right?

Gwen smirked and followed her boss out of the room. Then, the two of them walked out of the massive ship and onto the grassy field.

Then, the two of them nodded at each other and then powered up with a white aura surrounding them and they flew off in the direction of where the city was once standing.

BGM - Choujigen Game Neptune The Animation OST: Fresh Again

The CPUs, Saiyans and the CPU Candidates all arrived at the theme park, known as Super Nintenland, with Rom and Ram around ahead in their clothes that they wore when at home. Ram was running while Rom chased after her.

Rom: Come on, Ram! Wait for me!

Nepgear chased after the girls while carrying their coats.

Nepgear: C'mon girls, you've gotta wear your coats!

Uni and Dawn also chased after Nepgear and the twins, while carrying their tickets for the amusement park.

Uni and Dawn: Wait, Nepgear! You forgot to grab the tickets! 

Neptune, Noire, Vert, Quasar, Reiko, and Rain all had happy looks on their faces (well, Reiko had a neutral expression of his face), as they all walked together in a group. 

Eventually, Rom and Ram both had their winter coats on, courtesy of Nepgear and Rain putting them on for the two of them. 

Rom was riding on top of a brown turtle, while Ram bounced on top of a mushroom. The two of them were clearly having fun as they then went inside of some blue pipes that went to other locations.

Ram: Hey, Nepgear! Where are you guys? 

Rom: I don't see 'em.

Nepgear, Uni, and Dawn came out of some other pipes right behind them.

Nepgear: Hey, girls!

Uni: Over here!

Dawn: Behind you!

Uni then saw a coin floating next to her and grabbed it.

Uni: A coin with a Dogoo on it!

Nepgear: This one's got a Kupokitty!

Dawn: Hey, I found one with a Fenrir on it!

Rom and Ram ran around to tiny coins with some common elements on it.

Rom: Aw, it's a Tetris.

Ram: Yeah, so is this one. Talk about lame.

Reiko and Rain were playing a go-kart video game. The two of them were neck-and-neck, but then Rain threw a red turtle shell at Reiko, allowing him to secure first place. 

Rain: Oh yeah, I'm the man! That's right!!!

Reiko growled in frustration, then he angrily through his controller onto the ground and blasted it to pieces and walked away in anger.

Rain: *Sigh* Geez, you really don't like Racing games, do you? 

Reiko: Piece of shit game...  

Neptune and Quasar were getting a bag full of peaches as a snack at a concession's stand, while Noire and Vert were sitting on a bench.

Neptune: One rainbow road special!

Quasar: Make that two, please!

Noire was sitting on the left side of the bench, while Vert was sitting on the right side of the bench beside her.

Noire: Seems like Blanc should be acting like more of a diplomat whenever Saiyans or CPUs from other countries are visiting. I mean, she's the face of her country and it could be prettier.

Vert: That's a little harsh. I know what you're saying, but I think we've all still got some growing up to do.

Vert then made her breasts bounce a little bit, while making a jiggle sound as she giggled. 

Vert: Well, maybe not me.

Noire then blinked at Vert twice, because of whatever she just did.

Noire: Actually, come to think of it Vert, what brings you, Dawn, and Reiko to Lowee?

Just then, Neptune let out a terrified scream which caught the two CPU's attention. A random turtle was bothering Neptune as it wanted the peaches inside of her bag.

Neptune: Help me! This monster turtle wants my peaches! No! Somebody call a plumber! Stop it!

Quasar let a small chuckle and walked up to the turtle that was harassing Neptune. 

Quasar: Okay, okay. Calm down, Neptune. I got you covered. 

He then grabbed at least four or five peaches from his own bag and gave it to the turtle. Afterwards, it walked away and Quasar helped his fellow CPU up off the ground.

Neptune: *Sigh* Boy, that sure was a close one. Thanks for that, Quasar. 

Quasar: Sure, don't mention it.

Quasar then grabbed another peach from his bag and ate it in one huge bite.

Quasar: Mmmmm! This is soooo good!

Location: Nuvema Town Ruins

BGM - Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X OST: Vile's Plan

Raditz and Nappa were wandering around the ruins of the city that was once populated by hundreds of people. They were both using their Scouters to try and discover the location of the Anti-Crystal that was in said city. 

Just then, a beeping sound came from Raditz's scouter as it detected a strong energy reading. 

Raditz: ...It's close...

He then walked toward the direction of where the gem was located and noticed a bright red glow, emitting from the ground. Soon, he found it buried underneath some debris of a former bakery. After a bit of digging, he plucked it out of the ground and examined it in all of its glory. 

Then, he walked up to this partner, Nappa, who was still looking for the Ace Force to show up.

Nappa: Well? You find that stupid thing yet or what? 'Cause I'm getting tired of standing around here doing nothing all day.

Raditz then showed the brawny Saiyan the small red, cross-shaped gem that they've been looking for.

Nappa: *Evil Chuckle* So, is this what we're looking for?

Raditz: Yes, there's no doubt about it. This is the Anti-Crystal that Towa asked us to find.

Location: Nuvema Town - Sky

Ace and Gwen were flying through the sky at high speeds. Then, they both saw smoke coming from the ruins of Nuvema Town.

Gwen: There it is! Nuvema Town, 12 o'clock! And I can sense those two are still down there...

Ace: Let's go! 

The two fighters then flew towards the destroyed city, in an attempt to apprehend the suspects.

Back in Nuvema Town Ruins

Just as Raditz and Nappa were about to vacate themselves from the area, both their Scouters made a long beeping noise that caught both of their attention. 

Raditz: Hmm? What's this...?

Nappa: Something wrong...?

Raditz: There seems to be a large energy reading heading straight for us... Two of them, for that matter...

Nappa was unsure, but checked his scouter just in case. Then, he received the same two large readings that Raditz was talking about.

Nappa: Heh-heh-heh! Now we're talkin'! This is gonna be good! Finally, I get a chance to stretch my legs and crush a few skulls while I'm at it.

BGM - Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X OST: Boss Appearance 

Just then, Ace and Gwen arrived on the scene and landed right in front of Raditz and Nappa. 

Nappa, being the arrogant fighter that he is, smirked at the sight of Gwen and Ace.

Nappa: Well, well, well... Lookie what we have here, two pathetic little insects trying their best to look tough.

Gwen: Tch! (Can't really act tough when your opponent's nothin' but a big oaf, trying to act like he's all that.)

Ace: Raditz... Nappa... What you two have done is unforgivable! 

Gwen: That's right! All those people... All those children... 

Raditz: Oh, please! Spare me those pathetic words of yours, Ace... leader of the Ace Force! And the same goes for your little Saiyan pet, as well.

Gwen: I-I'm sorry, but did you just call me a "pet?" 

Raditz: Hmph! Yes, I did. What are you going to do about it, little girl?

Gwen: Oh, that's very simple, Raditz... For calling me Boss' little pet, I'm about to open up a nice, fresh new can of whoop ass on you "and" Nappa!

Ace: Well, you heard the lady. 

Nappa: Heh-heh-heh-heh! Now we're talkin'! There's nothing I love more than stomping weak little blabbermouths like you two into dust!

BGM - Sonic Adventure OST: Boss: "CHAOS" ver. 6 [S.A.M.E. Version]

Nappa and Raditz then powered up with the ground beneath them beginning to shake violently. Nappa then holds his hand out and charges a fierce, pulsating yellow energy sphere in his hand. As for Raditz, he raises back to his right upper side and forms a reddish-pink energy sphere. 

Nappa: Bomber DX!!!

Raditz: Saturday Crush!!!

When his attack is ready, Nappa reels back and tosses a large, pure golden energy sphere at both Ace and Gwen. Raditz then brings his hand together with the other in front of him and fires a pink energy wave at his opponents. 

Ace then smirks at the incoming attacks and then he creates a large shield of ice in front of him and Gwen that shields the blasts coming from the two Saiyans, which explodes upon impact. When the smoke cleared, Gwen and Ace are revealed to have survived the explosion unscathed.

Raditz: Oh... Still alive, are you? 

Gwen: Damn straight! Let's get this party started! Haaaaaaa!!!  

Gwen let out a loud yell as she transformed into a Super Saiyan. In this form, her hair changed from black to a golden-blond color and spiked up with no loose strands. Her eyes also changed to a greenish-blue color, and she was now surrounded by a golden flame-like aura flowing upwards.

Ace: Super Saiyan, huh? Well then, I guess I'd better change too.

Ace then lifted his right arm to reveal a wristwatch. Then, after he pressed the red button on the watch, his body reverted back to his final form.

Ace's final form is the form that Ace was born in, being his "true" or "base" form, with his previous form being a disguise courtesy of the wristwatch he was wearing. In this form, Ace becomes a short, white lizard-like, almost harmless-looking creature. Ace has pure white boots, shins and wristbands, has rounder and smoother ears, and he has white skin on his face, abdomen with lines on his cheeks, blue skin on his arms and hands and indigo sections on his head and abdomen and shins. 

Raditz: So, that is your "true" form?

Nappa: Makes no difference to me! I'll still beat him to a bloody pulp!

After descending back down to the ground, the four warriors got into a fighting stance. 

Ace (Final Form): (Gwyneth, you take care of Raditz. I'll handle the big guy. Understood?)

Gwen (Super Saiyan): (Yeah, I got it.)

Ace (Final Form): (Good.)

Ace then powered up with an indigo colored aura surrounding him and immediately charged directly at Nappa. Nappa then jumps backward and fires four fireballs at his opponent. Ace jumps into Nappa and sends him flying away with a powerful kick, causing him to skid on the ground. Ace then runs towards Nappa, who quickly gets up. Nappa jumps into the air and tries to throw a massive punch at him, but Ace manages to avoid his attacks, and then the two of them quickly exchange punches with each other.

Meanwhile with Super Saiyan Gwen and Raditz, the two of them were exchanging fast punches and kicks while in the air, though Gwen seemed to have the upper hand. Raditz threw a punch, which Gwen blocked, and she punched Raditz in the stomach really hard, sending him flying back with his arms crossed protectively. 

Ace followed suit and threw Nappa back with a powerful shove, sending him skidding back as well. 

Ace: (Final Form): You'll go no further! Ice Wall!!!

Using the power of cryokinesis, Ace took a step and used his ice powers to create a massive ice ridge in order to freeze Nappa in place with its large size.

Nappa: Ha! Like that'll stop the mighty Nappa!

Nappa powers up and opens his mouth to charge an energy sphere. Then, he fires the energy blast in the form of an energy wave at Ace's Ice Wall, destroying it completely. Luckily, Ace managed to jump out of the way and into the air to avoid getting hit, but he couldn't take it easy just yet, as Nappa rushed toward him, but Ace easily blocked Nappa's assault, and the two collided with each other and exchanged fast punches, kicks, and blocks, eventually landing back onto the ground.

Ace then extends his right arm and fires a barrage of small, thin, very fast and concentrated red laser beams of ki from his index finger, which keeps Nappa at bay.

Eventually, Nappa barreled through the attacks and punched the ground, to which Ace immediately jumped back to avoid being hit.

Ace (Final Form): (Damn, seems like this might take longer than I thought...)

Location: Super Nintenland

The day was still going well as the CPU's, CPU Candidates, and the Saiyans were still at the amusement park. Rom and Ram were still playing around the park until they both saw a rare coin floating above them.

Ram: Look, Rom! It's a Guardragon coin! That's a totally rare item!

Rom: Well, there sure are a bunch of them.

They soon noticed an entire trail of Guardragon coins lined up into a corner. 

Ram: Oh, wow! They're all Guardragons! Although, maybe we've got enough already. 

Rom: We do, but I wanna bring some home for Blanc too.

Ram: Seriously? I don't see why, she didn't even bother to come with us.

Rom then had a sad look on her face.

Rom: I know, but...

Ram decided to listen to her twin sister and smiled.

Ram: You're right. Maybe if we pick up 100, she can finally get a life!

(A/N: *Que Comedic Rimshot* Ba-Dum-Tssshhh)

Rom: Yeah!

Rom and Ram both ran to the direction of the coins, little did they know, two mysterious figures were watching them from the shadows in a corner with mischievous looks on their faces.

???: *Creepy Laugh* Lickie.

Meanwhile, Nepgear, Uni, and Dawn suddenly lost track of the twins and began searching for them.

Nepgear: Where did...?

Dawn: Hmm? What's up, Gear?

Uni: Somethin' wrong?

Nepgear looked around with a worried expression on her face.

Nepgear: Where did Rom and Ram go? I don't see them anywhere.

Uni: How about there? They were picking up coins a second ago.

Dawn carefully took a closer look at the coins and realized that they had Guardragons on them.

Dawn: Strange. These are Guardragon coins, but aren't these supposed to be incredibly rare? Why would they put something so rare in such an obvious place?

Uni: I guess we're about to find out.

Nepgear started walking, with Uni behind her, and Dawn who followed behind both of them.

Nepgear: Rom, Ram! Where are you?

BGM - Choujigen Game Neptune The Animation OST: ばっく☆あたぁ～く

The three girls walked around the corner and what they saw made all of them gasp. Rom and Ram were being held hostage by a monster who has the appearance of a large, yellow armored-like being with red trimming. He has a large, lizard-like head with green eyes and a round, red nose. On both sides of his forehead are extending horns. He also has spiky, red hair behind the back of his head. He has a large mouth that's usually open and drooling with sharp teeth, and a very long tongue. He is strapped with three straps that are tied in a large ringlet on the middle of his chest. He has a scaled back and a long tail similar to a reptile with red scales. On his back is a large disc encompassed inside an open casing with a horned, large head-like design on the top. He also wears brown, short boots. He is usually seen sitting and moves by sliding on the surface or jumping while sitting down.

Accompanying the large monster was a female with pale skin, green hair, red eyes, and pointy ears. She wears a black choke collar on her neck. She wears gloves that reach through her wrists, and are black on the dorsal side and red on the palm, and has white zig-zag lines on the wrists. On the top, she wears nothing but an opened, hooded jacket and a tube top, revealing her chest and belly. Her hooded jacket is colored grey with black trimming on the outside and red on the inside, and the hood is designed similar to Warechu's head, having his ears, nose, and white whiskers. On the back is a broken heart design with red and yellow coloring beside each of the crack's sides and black crossbones under the heart. The similar design can also be found divided by the bottom front of her jacket. Her tube top is black and has crossing strings in the middle. The same heart design on her jacket can be found on the middle of the tube top with the heart being divided by the strings. She wears grey, baggy pants with strings and is colored black on the waistline. On her feet are dark grey combat boots with a white welt and black strings. She was seen carrying an iron pipe with a copper colored handle.

Rom and Ram were whimpering in fear as the monster held both captive in his tiny hands. Nepgear, Uni, and Dawn gasped as they were visibly disgusted by the monster's action.

Nepgear: Rom! Ram! What the?

Uni: Drop them! What do you think you're doing?!

Dawn: You heard her! Put those two down now!

The monster made a rather weird noise coming from his mouth, when his tongue came out. The monster then used its tongue to strike the young girls. Nepgear, Uni, and Dawn were all hit by the tongue and then knocked onto the ground.

CFW Trick: Run along now, ladies. You're all far too large for my tastes. Especially that Saiyan girl with you.

Underling (Linda): Like taking candy from a baby. Well done, Trick.

(A/N: Just for the record, I'm fully aware that her real name is Linda, but the in-universe joke is that she's basically an Underling for the main villain, so from her on out, I'll be using both names to refer to her. If you disagree with me, that's fine.)

Nepgear, Uni, and Dawn all struggled to get back on their feet.

CFW Trick: *Creepy Laugh* Well, the party's started and don't you forget it!

Both the kidnappers got away with Rom and Ram, as the three girls tried to get back up, but unfortunately they were in a lot of pain that they couldn't even move.

Nepgear desperately reached her arm out, with a sad expression on her face.

Nepgear: Oh no... Bring them back!

Dawn: ...Damn it...!

Dawn punches the ground in anger and pain as she was too weak to get back up and chase after the duo that took her friends.

BGM Ends

Eventually, Neptune and the others found Nepgear, Uni, and Dawn on the ground in pain, with Reiko shocked as he rushed over to his sister's side in a panic.

Reiko: Dawn! Hey, are you okay?

Dawn: Ugh... Yeah, I'm okay.

Rain: Well, what happened here? And... Where are Rom and Ram?

Nepgear looked down sadly, which made everyone raise an eyebrow.

Nepgear: I'm really sorry, Rain. It just happened out of nowhere...

Rain: Huh? What are you talking about?

Uni: Rom and Ram were kidnapped by some giant-looking monster and some girl with him!

Everyone was shocked after hearing what Uni just said, especially Rain as he trembled in fear.

Neptune and Noire: No way!

Reiko: You can't be serious!

Quasar: This is bad... C'mon, you guys! We gotta tell Blanc what happened here!

Everyone: Yeah!

Just then, Rain pulled out his cell phone and started dialing a certain someone's phone number.

Vert: Rain, what are you doing?

Rain: What does it look like? In times like this, there's only one you can do... 

After he finished dialing the phone number, he put the phone close to his ear and waited for his sister to pick up the phone.

Location: Nuvema Town Ruins

The former city of Nuvema Town lay in ruins, flames, and shards of ice (courtesy of Ace's cryokinetic powers). Smoke curled like dark tendrils into the gray colored sky. Rubble and exposed pipes protruded upward on the ground, decorated by thick black cracks. Several explosions shook the area, sending more debris to the ground. 

BGM - Super Dragon Ball Heroes OST: Competitive Battle

When the smoke cleared, it revealed Final Form Ace, Super Saiyan Gwen, Raditz and Nappa fighting in the air. Raditz yelled and charged at the female Super Saiyan, who simply powered up and charged at the long-haired Saiyan. Their powers clashed as they shared punches and kicks. Gwen managed to knock Raditz back and then she fired a red energy blast from her hand. Raditz barged through Gwen's attack and tried to shove her down to the ground with a mighty punch, but she quickly dodged the punch and threw him onto the ground with a roundhouse kick. But the Saiyan was not done. He rose from the ground and flew into the air. After he reappeared in front of Gwen, he wiped his mouth of any blood coming from his mouth. 

Gwen (Super Saiyan): Aw, what's the matter, hotshot? Can't stand the fact that you're getting your butt handed to you by a girl? Talk about embarrassing!

Raditz: Tch! You're starting to irritate me, you annoying brat! Let me ask you something, girl. Do you like "Ice Cream"?

Gwen raised an eyebrow to Raditz's odd question, but decided to answer it anyway.

Gwen (Super Saiyan): Huh? Umm... Yeah, I like ice cream. What's it to you?

Raditz: Then, have a taste of my Double Sunday!!!

Without any warning, Raditz raises both of his arms up and charges two purple energy spheres. He then brings his hands forward and fires the energy spheres in the form of two energy waves at Gwen, which the female Super Saiyan easily deflected. Gwen then descended back down to the ground, only for Raditz to follow her and they quickly resumed the fight. Raditz quickly charged toward Gwen, before she followed suit and dashed toward Raditz as they began clashing with each other, dashing from one location to another at incredibly high-speeds.

On the other side of the battlefield, Nappa starts powering up and then he lifts his hand, causing the ground below Ace to explode. Thankfully, Ace managed to fly out of the explosion, but Nappa spots him and flies after. Nappa then throws a couple of punches at Ace, but he blocks it and kicks him in the face. Nappa then rushes toward Ace as he's now in a guarding position and the muscular Saiyan starts punching him rapidly against Ace, pushing him back slightly. 

Ace (Final Form): (Don't think so!)

In response to his opponent's rapid punches, Ace powered up once more and the two of them exchanged punches and kicks with each other, only for Ace to gain the upper hand on Nappa before striking him with a powerful uppercut, having his fist encased in ice, then following it up by swinging his tail downward, knocking Nappa back down to the ground, before he immediately recovered.

BGM Ends

Ace then teleported back onto the ground and greeted Nappa, who wiped his mouth of any blood coming from his mouth.

Nappa: *Growl* Damn you!!! I'm gonna take my time ripping you to shreds, you got that!!!

Ace said nothing to Nappa's outburst and simply got into a boxing stance, getting ready for the next battle with the mighty Saiyan.

Just then, the battle with Gwen and Raditz was still ongoing, with the sky filled with black smoke and forceful explosions from every direction. Raditz was pushed back from the explosion, skidding backward besides Nappa and a bit scuffed up, as he was resting on one knee.

Raditz: Tch! Damn brat...!

Gwen suddenly appeared right next to Ace, still in her Super Saiyan state and looking at Raditz with a smug look on her face.

Ace (Final Form): Hmph... Looks like you had fun...

Gwen (Super Saiyan): Eh, not really. He even made a bad ice cream pun to try and catch me off guard.

As Raditz and Nappa regained their composure, the four warriors all got into a fighting stance, ready to settle this fight once and for all.

*Ring, Ring, Ring*

Gwen (Super Saiyan): Huh?

Ace (Final Form): Something wrong?

Gwen (Super Saiyan): S-Sorry, I gotta take this. Hold on...

Gwen reached into her pocket and pulled out her cell phone to see who's calling here. 

Gwen (Super Saiyan): Hello? 

*Indistinct Chatter*

Gwen (Super Saiyan): Hey, little bro. How's it going?

*More Indistinct Chatter*

Gwen (Super Saiyan): Wait... WHAT?!!! Are you sure?

*More Indistinct Chatter*

Gwen (Super Saiyan): O-Okay bro, just take it easy... 

*More Indistinct Chatter*

After a bit of arguing over the phone, Gwen took a deep breath and looked back at her phone.

Gwen (Super Saiyan): Alright, we'll be here as soon as we can. Okay, I'll talk to you later, Rain. Okay, bye!

After Gwen finished talking on the phone, Ace looked at her with a confused look.

Ace (Final Form): What's going on? 

Gwen (Super Saiyan): *Sigh* It's my little brother. He just called me and told me something pretty bad.

Ace (Final Form): Well, what is it?

Gwen (Super Saiyan): Okay so, you know about that new theme park that opened up in Lowee? Well apparently, everybody minus Blanc went over there, and then out of nowhere, Rom and Ram were kidnapped by some thugs! Rain's totally freaking out about it!

BGM - Super Dragon Ball Heroes OST: Prison Planet

Ace (Final Form): What?!!

As the two were discussing the fact that Ram and Rom were taken by some thugs, both Raditz and Nappa's scouters made a long beeping noise that caught both of their attention. 

Raditz: Hello?

Dr. Gero: This is Gero. Have you two monkeys found the Anti-Crystal yet?

Nappa: Ya, we got it! But we're a little bit preoccupied at the moment. We're busy fighting with the Ace Force.

Dr. Gero: What the hell are you two doing still playing around with the Ace Force? We've already gathered enough of their combat data for Project Omega! Bring the Anti-Crystal back to my lab, immediately!

Raditz: Understood...

After they cut their transmission, the two Saiyans looked back at Ace and Gwen.

Nappa: Listen up, you punks! What do ya say we call this a "draw"?

Ace (Final Form): A "draw"?

Raditz: That's right! We have important matters we need to attend to. So this time, we'll let you both go. But the next time we meet...You won't be so lucky!

Raditz and Nappa then teleported away, leaving Ace and Gwen in the ruined city alone. Gwen then powered out of Super Saiyan, and reverted back to her base form.

Gwen: Dammit, they got away!

Ace (Final Form): Let it go, Gwyneth. I'm sure we'll cross paths with those two again, but right now, we don't have any time to waste. We need to get over to Lowee and help the others find Rom and Ram!

Gwen: Right!

Ace then pushed a button on his watch and reverted back into his "Human" form. Then, the two of them powered up and flew to Lowee at supersonic speeds. 

However, after both groups disappeared from the destroyed ruins of the city, the Masked Saiyan, with both of his arms crossed, observed all the events unfold from the sky. Then, he disappeared without a trace, almost as if he was never there in the first place. 

BGM Ends

Location: Lowee Basilicom

The CPU's, CPU Candidates, and the Saiyans all returned to the Lowee Basilicom, and after they all informed Blanc over what happened to her sisters, she locked herself in her workroom, with the maid blocking the doors to try and keep them from speaking with Blanc.

Church Worker: Please believe me, I understand. But Lady Blanc has explicitly instructed me not to let anybody inside.

Neptune: Come on! We're all Goddesses here, what's the big deal?

Church Worker: I know, but I'm afraid that doesn't matter.

Nepgear: We just wanna apologize, that's all!

Uni: It was our fault Rom and Ram got kidnapped! Please let up help find them!

Church Worker: Thank you, but that's not necessary. We've already mobilized the guards to search for them.

Neptune: We know, but still-

It was then that Blanc, from inside her locked room, decided to cut Neptune off.

Blanc: Just go home. All you'll do is cause even more trouble.

Everyone else had worried looks on their faces. Then, Quasar and Reiko noticed that Rain suddenly disappeared.

Quasar: Huh? Where did-?

Reiko: (That's weird... I could've sworn Rain was right next to us when we got back...)

BGM - Choujigen Game Neptune The Animation OST: Tune

Meanwhile inside Blanc's workroom, Blanc had her head hung down in sorrow. Then, Rain suddenly appeared behind the CPU and noticed Blanc with her back facing towards him.

Rain: *Sigh* You already know why I'm in here, don't ya?

Blanc: ... I do...

Rain: Then you should already know how I'm feeling right now, right? Honestly, I shouldn't have come back here, especially when it's my fault that Rom and Ram got taken... It just makes me so furious... 

Rain clenched his fist in anger, as he held back any urge to yell right in front of Blanc. Then, he took a deep breath and looked back at the CPU.

Rain: You probably hate me, don't you?

Blanc turned around and her face was shadowed, but it didn't look like she was about to blow a fuse as a red glowing eye didn't appear. Instead, she had a frown on her face and she started to whimper and walk the opposite direction of the door to Rain.

Blanc gritted her teeth, her fists were balled up and Rain just kept staring her down, as he was perfectly prepared for if Blanc got pissed at him for letting this incident occur, but instead of getting angry, Blanc did something completely unexpected... She fell down to her knees and started bawling on the floor with tears draining from her eyes, almost as if it's a waterfall. Rain looked at Blanc with a surprised look on his face as he rushed over to Blanc's side.

Rain: Blanc, calm down! Breathe slowly... 

Blanc: *Sniff* Rom... Ram... T-This is all my fault. *Sniff* If only I... *Sniff* was a better sister!

Blanc looked up for Rain to see her entire crying face, as she was so sad and guilty that it made Rain feel even worse allowing his CPU to feel this way.

Blanc: *Sniff* I'm so sorry, Rain. *Sniff* I get it if you have a reason to be mad at me. *Sniff*

Rain: I'm not mad...

Blanc: *Sniff* What?

Rain: I'm not mad. I'm just a little surprised to see Lady White Heart cry like that. Besides, like what Nepgear said, it just happened out of nowhere. So there's really no reason to worry so much.

Blanc looked back down to the ground, still crying as a small puddle started forming on the floor. Rain then got on his knees and hugged Blanc, which surprised her. She was hesitant at first, but she ultimately returned the hug back to him and Rain gently rubbed Blanc's back to comfort her. After a few minutes and a bunch of handkerchiefs, Blanc finally stopped crying and she stood back up with Rain still hugging her. Then, they separated and Rain gave Blanc a warm and sincere smile, as he put his hands on Blanc's shoulders.

Rain: Don't you worry about a thing, Blanc. I promise we'll get Rom and Ram back here safe and sound. And I'm positive that they'll forgive you.

Blanc: They'll... forgive me?

Rain: Well, why wouldn't they? I mean, you ARE their big sister.

Blanc then smiled at Rain as she felt relieved knowing her little sisters will forgive her.

BGM Ends

Blanc: Still, I've got to help them somehow. How can I find them? What can I do?

Rain: Hmm... Well, I don't know if it'll help, but... Not long after we left Super Nintenland, I gave my sister a call, and she and Ace are on their way here right now to try and help us out.

Blanc: (Ace... and Gwen? They're coming here? Wait... )

Just then, an idea popped up and Blanc's head.

Blanc: I know. When those two get here, I can use the-

???: Ga-Thunk! Ga-Thunk! Ga-Thunk!

Blanc and Rain suddenly jumped in suspense, as they turned around to see a little girl with long sandy-brown hair with teal eyes and bright pink bow on top of her head with a skull in the center along with red lining and white frills on the end. She wears a matching bright pink lolita-style dress accompanied with numerous white frills in layers and a red bow in the center with yet another skull. On her legs are light pink stockings with bright pink ankle high boots with red ribbons in the center.

The little girl then pointed at Blanc and Rain.

???: Now, I've got you!

Both Blanc and Rain were confused at what was going on. Then suddenly, a bright light shined in their face as they covered their eyes from the light. The blonde girl then ran towards Blanc and Rain, with a bunch of cameramen accompanying her.

Blanc: Who are you?

Abnes: My name is Abnes! And I fight for the children of the world!

Rain was at a loss of words.

Rain: Wait, children of the what? Sorry, but could you repeat that? I'm not quite sure I'm catching on.

Blanc: Don't act like you don't know me. I'm the star of the hit internet series, the Abnes Channel! Everyone knows me. Okay, let's get this live broadcast going!

Blanc and Rain: Live broadcast?

Just then, one of the cameras switched on and was recording the footage. Blanc and Rain were now on live television, as suddenly Abnes started talking with a pink microphone in her hand.

BGM - Choujigen Game Neptune The Animation OST: JunkFood

Abnes: Hello, Gamindustri! It's your best friend, Abnes here! Idol of the world's mission! And today, I'm confronting the little girl CPU of Lowee, along with her Saiyan boyfriend! Say hello to Blanc and Rain!

Blanc: What? Little girl?

Rain: I-I'm sorry, but... Did you just call me her "Saiyan boyfriend"?

Blanc: Listen, you annoying-

Before Blanc could finish, Abnes pointed her microphone directly in front of Blanc's face.

Abnes: Now, Blanc, are the rumors we've been hearing true? Did you allow your own little sisters to get kidnapped? Well, did you? Huh?

Rain and Blanc were both shocked that she already seems to know about what happened earlier today.

Blanc: How do you know about that?

Rain: Yeah! I mean, aside from our friends, we've never told anyone else about this!

Abnes: Sounds like a yes! Those poor little girls. So, just how does it feel to be such an awful, neglectful big sister, Blanc? Honestly now?

Rain then suddenly gained a little tick mark on his forehead, as Abnes was harassing Blanc, and he decided to step in and defend Blanc.

Rain: Now, hold on just a minute there, little missy! Yes, Blanc may be held responsible for what happened, but that doesn't mean that she's going to-

Abnes: Ah! Wait your turn there, monkey man? So, Blanc, I want an answer, now!

Blanc went wide-eyed again, not knowing what to say for herself. She didn't want to accept it, but deep down, she knew that Abnes was right.

BGM Ends

Location: Outside Lowee Basilicom

Meanwhile, the rest of the group were waiting outside at the same exact table they were at earlier.

Noire: That Blanc. What is her problem? This is an emergency, it's scarcely the time for her to be so pig-headed! *Sigh* Sometimes, I even wonder what Rain sees in someone like her.

Neptune: Yeah, really. Noire's the one with the patent on being an unlikeable hardass. Or if it's not her, that honor honestly goes to either Reiko or Ace.

Noire: Watch it!

Reiko: Wanna run that by me again, Neptune?

???: Sorry for bragging in unannounced, but what was that I heard about being an "unlikeable hardass"?

The sudden third voice got everyone's attention as they looked up in the sky to see Ace and Gwen, slowly descending back to the ground to greet them.

Neptune: O-Oh, uh... Nothing! Don't worry your frosty little head about it.

Ace: Hmph... Yeah, that's what I thought. You're lucky we're all friends Neptune, otherwise, I would've turned you into a Nep-sicle.

Uni: Ace... and Gwen too?

Quasar: What are you guys doing here?

Gwen: We got an urgent message from Rain, saying that Lowee's CPU Candidates were kidnapped in broad daylight. You oughta be criminally insane not to show out and check to see what's going on!

Reiko: Well, you two certainly came at the right time. I just hope Rain can help talk some sense into Blanc.

Vert, who was mostly quiet, decided to speak up and tell everyone the truth.

Vert: Everyone... You see... the truth is-

Before she could finish, Nepgear cut Vert off as she noticed something unexpected happen.

Nepgear: Hey, Neptune... Quasar? What do you think that's about?

Nepgear pointed to the window of Blanc's room, and this caught everyone's attention as they all looked to see Blanc and Rain on the news.

Gwen: Huh, wonder what's going on up there?

Dawn: It looks like they're both on the news.

Neptune: Hmm...

Neptune grew suspicious as she looked on at the scene, with a serious look on her face. Quasar also picked up on this, as he shared Neptune's concerned look.

Quasar: Hmm...

The live broadcast was shown all across the city of Lowee, and the people saw Blanc and Rain on live television. Blanc had a guilty look on her face, whereas Rain was just straight up annoyed.

Abnes: Shoot straight with me here, Blanc. The kidnapping of your little sisters was entirely your fault, right? Just admit it.

Blanc: I... I don't...

Abnes: You hear that, kids? The little girl CPU can't even properly defend herself.

Rain: Hey! I'm the one defending her word here, you little-

Abnes then pointed her microphone at Rain, catching him off guard.

Abnes: Fine then, if you wanna talk so badly, then tell me this. Was it entirely her fault, as well as yours? You were at the amusement park with them, weren't you?

Rain: W-Well... I mean... Yeah, but...

Abnes: Ah-hah! See that everyone? Little girls just aren't cut out to goddesses. It's too much responsibility. They should just be playing games and enjoying life. The Abnes Channel is firmly against little girl goddesses, as well as alien warriors!

BGM - Choujigen Game Neptune The Animation OST: JunkFood

Neptune: Hey, what the heck's going on here?

Out of nowhere, Neptune and Quasar pushed a cameraman out of the way. Rain was relieved to see Neptune and Quasar here in the nick of time.

Abnes: Who do you think you two are?

Neptune: I know I'm Neptune, the Goddess of Planeptune!

Quasar: What you see is what you get! Just a guy that loves adventure, chili dogs, and helping those in need! Quasar Kaze's the name, being a Saiyan/CPU is my game!

Rain: Neptune, Quasar! Boy, am I glad to see you guys here!

Abnes: Oh really, another Goddess and a Saiyan?

Abnes then examined Neptune's appearance.

Abnes: Well, I suppose you look passably old enough to just be hitting puberty. Although... You've barely begun to develop. You're a little girl! I declare you too young!

Neptune: Say what? Am I really being called a little girl by a girl littler than me?

Quasar: Sick Burn! Good one, Neptune!

Abnes: WHAT?! I am certainly not a little girl! And besides, it takes one to know one, missy!

Neptune: Yeah, and since you're throwing down all these "little girl claims", that proves for sure you're one too!

Quasar: Oh, snap! Ahahahahahaha!!!

Rain: Damn! You go, Neptune!

Abnes: I can't believe you said it again! Gah!!!

Then, Quasar walked up to Abnes and kneeled down to greet her.

Quasar: Ahem! Ya know, in the future, if you're gonna try and do an interview with the Nation's CPU, don't make it sound so scandalous to try and make her feel bad.

Abnes: S-Shut up!

As Abnes wasn't looking, Noire, Vert, Reiko, and Ace pushed Abnes' television crew out of the room.

Abnes: Leave my crew alone! You're getting off with a warning today, but I will be back!

BGM Ends

After that comment, the doors slammed shut and Abnes, along with her crew, left the Basilicom.

Quasar: Eat me, don't forget to write!

Neptune: Oh yeah, little girl! Well, I'll be waiting for you! Poor whiny widdle girl!

Noire: For heaven's sake. What was that about?

Vert: I wonder how she and her crew even got in here.

Neptune: I don't know. But she sure knows how to call someone a little girl!

Quasar: I'll say... It's almost like she can't take it when someone else calls her a little girl, so she labels that to someone else to make her seem all "grown-up". 

Reiko: Man, talk about a severe inferiority complex.

Neptune: I know, right?!

BGM - Super Dragon Ball Heroes OST: A Heart That Never Gives Up

Then all of a sudden, Blanc had a shadow over her eyes and her body felt weak as she started to collapse. She then passed out right next to Rain, as both he and Nepgear caught her on both sides.

Rain: Blanc? Blanc! Blanc, are you okay? Say something!

Nepgear: It's okay, Blanc! Hang in there!

Church Worker: I-I'll go get some help!

The maid then ran out of the room, leaving everybody else alone to worry about Blanc.

Gwen: Boss, here.

Gwen then pulled out an ice bag, commonly used for injuries, and gave it to Ace. After filling the bag up with water, Ace then used his cryokinetic powers to freeze all the water inside the bag, and then placed the bag over Blanc's head.

Ace then checked Blanc's pulse to see if she was alright or not.

Ace: *Sigh* It looks like she's going to be okay. She just needs some rest, that's all.

Rain: Whew... That's good to hear.

Nepgear: What do you think is wrong with her?

Uni: Maybe, everybody in Lowee just watched the interview and her Shares took a sudden turn for the worse.

Everybody else gasped at Uni's possible guess.

Nepgear: Hey wait, can't a CPU lose their powers if she doesn't have enough Shares? That's not good.

Noire: I don't think her Shares dropping would make her faint. There's no way she'd feel the negative effects that quickly.

Quasar: Yeah, she has a point. Even if Planeptune's Shares were to just suddenly decline, it would take a while for both me and Neptune to feel the negative side effects, not right away. 

Nepgear: Then why?

Suddenly, Vert decided to speak up and tell everyone something important.

Vert: Listen, everyone... 

This caught everyone's attention, as they all looked at Vert.

Dawn: What is it, Vert?

Vert: ... There's a way we can fix this. We can track down Rom and Ram, and I know exactly how to do it.

Rain then picked up Blanc's unconscious body and carried her bridal style.

Rain: You guys go on ahead. I'll catch up. I just need to put Blanc in bed first.

Location: Lowee Basilicom, Blanc's Workroom

Time: 6:30pm, Sunset

Vert was on Blanc's laptop, while everyone else watched her doing something.

Vert: The truth is, Blanc has been working on a certain plan for some time now. And part of it... Well, I'm guessing you all must've heard about the old satellite service that was based out of Lowee, right?

Neptune: Oh, yeah. I remember that. Wasn't it called the Basiliview?

Noire: Yeah, didn't they shut it down around ten years ago?

Vert: That's right.

Dawn: So wait, you're saying it's been reassembled? But, why?

Vert: It actually turns out all of the satellites are fully functioning. They're still capable of relaying images from around the entire world. However, they're low resolution. But Leanbox labs, as well as the Ace Force technical support, have developed a new type of software that can analyze and then process the data and produce high-res imagery from it.

Quasar: Wow, that's amazing!

Neptune: Awesome! Just leave it to nerdy Vert and her tech-savvy ways!

Vert: Once we came up with it, I approached Ace, and then Blanc with an offer. If Lowee would provide the image data from their satellite system, then we'd all trade. And Leanbox, along with the Ace Force, would provide the software.

Ace: We were also planning on using the data from the satellites, as well as my assets, to send the images into the outer reaches of space. 

Noire: But that would give all of you a complete monopoly on all the world's information.

Neptune: Oh, man! That's messed up! Do you guys realize how much trouble that'd cause us?

Vert: Oh, yes. Trust me, we know. And that's exactly why we planned on sharing the information with the world.

This got everyone's attention as they all wanted to know more.

Ace: She speaks the truth. We were gonna share all that information with not only Leanbox and Lowee, but Planeptune and Lastation as well.

Vert: It was Blanc's suggestion, of course. The way she and Ace saw it, we'd all signed the friendship treaty, so it's only right our four nations use it equally.

Ace: Oh, and don't worry, we'll give you all these assets free of charge.

Quasar: Well, that was very considerate of her.

Noire: You don't say.

Gwen: It's true. We were all just waiting for the right time to go public with the news. Sort of like, a surprise present to help celebrate the treaty.

Neptune, Noire, and the others looked at each other for a moment in slight surprise that Blanc did this for all of the CPUs, along with the Saiyans.

Just then, a loud beep was heard, which caught everybody's attention.

BGM Ends

Gwen: Looks like the data analysis just finished. With this, we'll be able to know exactly where the kidnappers fled.

After typing for a little bit, both Vert and Gwen were surprised at the location of where the kidnappers ran off to.

Vert: Really? I see...

Gwen: Huh, never thought it'd be there...

Quasar: Alright, c'mon everyone! Let's go get our twin CPUs back!

Everyone had the same determined look that Quasar put on, as they all nodded in agreement.

Location: Lowee Basilicom, Blanc's Room

The sunset shined bright through the window of Blanc's bedroom, which was filled with a lot of books, almost like a library, and it had a bed in the middle. Blanc's hat and coat were hanging on a rack nearby. Rain looked out the window, before staring back at Blanc, who was in the bed asleep.

He sat by the window and took out his phone to check his emails or to browse the internet, until he suddenly noticed a text message from Uni.

[Uni] - Hey, how's Blanc doing?  Is she still knocked out?

[Rain] - Yep...

[Uni] - Oh, okay. Just wanted to make sure. Listen, we now know where Rom and Ram are.

[Rain] - NO WAY!!! Are you serious? That's great! So, where are they?

[Uni] - Well, you're not gonna believe this, but... They're at Super Nintenland. Apparently the two that kidnapped them didn't see a reason to want and leave the theme park. So, we're all heading back there to get them back.

[Rain] - Alright, thanks a ton, Uni. I'll be there as soon as I can. 

Rain placed his phone back in his pocket and rushed out of Blanc's room, before he took one last look at Blanc before going to see the others.

Rain: (Don't you worry about a thing, Blanc. I promise... We'll save Rom and Ram.)

After that, he headed out of Blanc's room, leaving her alone to rest. Unbeknownst to him, Blanc suddenly opened her eyes partly in her sleep as Rain walked out.

Location: Super Nintenland

Time - Night

Rom and Ram were both tied up, with their backs against the wall, inside of a secluded place in the theme park. Then, Rom woke up and she looked to see CFW Trick, right in front of both her and her sister, Ram.

CFW Trick: Well, lickie, lickie, lickie, lickie, lickie, lickie.

BGM - Choujigen Game Neptune The Animation OST: ±0

Rom: Oh no!

Hearing Rom's sudden cry of worry, Ram woke up beside her.

Ram: What's wrong?

Ram also saw Trick and she instantly had the same worried look that Rom had.

CFW Trick: *Chuckle* There's nothing better than little, sleepyhead girls! They're the perfect taste for licking! Lickie, lickie, lickie, lickie, lickie!

(A/N: We here at Hyperdimension Neptunia Z: The Animation do NOT condone child violence, abuse, or even pedophilia. And to anyone who even thinks about doing that sort of thing, you should be ashamed of yourselves. And now, it's time to return to our regularly scheduled fanfic.)

Trick then grabbed Rom with his tongue and started wrapping it around her as she started screaming for help.

Ram: Hey! Let go of my sister, you creep! You stop that!

Unfortunately, it seems as though Ram's words fell on deaf ears as Trick did the exact same thing to her. 

CFW Trick: Lickie, lickie, lickie, lickie, lickie.

Ram: No! Put me down! Stop licking!

Underling (Linda): I'm on top of things, Trick, sir.  I made the call and demanded the ransom just like you asked.

Underling then walked in the door and was immediately creeped out at what she was witnessing.

Underling (Linda): What the hell are you doing?!

CFW Trick: What do you think I'm doing? My saliva's got healing properties. I'm improving their health! Nothing weird going on here at all!

Underling (Linda): Uh... sure, whatever.

BGM Ends

Outside of the building, the CPUs, CPU Candidates, and the Saiyans were standing at the entrance of where a ride was currently under maintenance. 

Noire: So they were hiding out right here beneath a ride under construction.

Ace: That's actually a clever strategy. There's no way someone would ever think to check an unfinished ride as a secret hideout.

Neptune: Okay, let's do this. Time to kick some kidnapping butt.

Dawn: Yeah, let's go. I wanna make sure those two pay for kidnapping Rom and Ram.

Reiko: Hold it! Me and Vert were discussing something earlier and in order to rescue the twins, we need a plan. 

Vert: He's right. We can't rush into this. Our first priority should be securing the hostages. 

Gwen: Right. Okay, so here's what we're gonna do...

Back inside the building under maintenance, CFW Trick was still having fun, licking Rom and Ram.

Ram: Stop it! Let us go!

Rom: Please, I wanna go home!

Just then, two doors busted open, revealing Vert, Reiko, Dawn, and Gwen.

Vert: That is quite enough!

Ram: Rain? Big sis?

CFW Trick: Huh? Another little girl's come to play?

Reiko cracked his knuckles, all without taking his eyes off of CFW Trick.

Reiko: No little girls here, pal. Just some very, pissed off individuals that are ready to kick some ass.

Rom: Help us, guys!

Gwen got a good look at CFW Trick and she couldn't hide her disgust at what he was doing to Rom and Ram.

Gwen: Ew... You weren't kidding, Dawn. This guy is a straight-up pervert.

Dawn: I know right.

Then, Vert got really serious as she looked at Trick.

Vert: I demand that you release those girls. Let them go and Me, Gwen, and Dawn'll take their place instead.

The whole situation went silent for a second, with Gwen and Dawn both having a confused look on their faces.

Dawn and Gwen: ... 

Reiko: ...

CFW Trick: ...

Dawn and Gwen: ... Hold up... What?

CFW Trick: No thanks. I'm a gentleman who sticks to his word and these little girls were part of the deal. Besides, I'm really not into big boobs.

That little comment irritated Vert, as she is one who takes great pride in her own chest size.

Reiko: (Oh geez, here we go... )

Vert: Oh, and just what exactly do you have against large breasts?!

CFW Trick: They'll just end up sagging someday.

Vert let out a small grunt as she pushed her arms up to her breasts, while they made a jiggle sound. She was feeling both disappointed, as well as triggered.

BGM - Choujigen Game Neptune The Animation OST: Goddess Awakening

Vert: I see... Well, Mr. "Gentleman", you certainly do have a way with words!

In a flash of light, Vert immediately transformed into her HDD Form, known as Green Heart.

As Green Heart, she now has purple eyes and her hair remains long and is of different shades of green. It is kept in a ponytail, her fringe is normally seen above her eyes and her bangs are thick and caress her face. Her attire is a white bodysuit that is open in the middle, exposing her stomach and underside of her breasts. Her sleeves are detached and are white and black in the entirety. Her gauntlets are longer than the other CPUs with it covering the majority of her forearms with ease.

CFW Trick: *Gasp* You're a CPU?!

Green Heart (Vert): That's Green Heart to you. Now, prepare yourself!

Then, she turned to Reiko with a smirk on her face.

Green Heart (Vert): Shall we, Reiko?

Reiko: Hmph! Alright then, if you insist. Dawn, Gwen, just stay back, you got it?

Both of the girls nodded and stepped back. Reiko wasted no time and immediately transformed into a Super Saiyan. In this form, Reiko's muscle and height slightly increase and his skin turns lighter. His eyes become noticeably sterner and more defined with greenish blue eyes. His hair becomes a golden-lemon cream color and stands upwards on its own (resembling Future Trunks' Super Saiyan hairstyle). His power also generates a golden flame-like aura.

CFW Trick: Woah, hold on a second! You're... a Saiyan?

Reiko (Super Saiyan): Damn straight.

Underling saw the whole thing and decided to run off.

Underling (Linda): I'm no longer officially worried about that ransom money!

Reiko (Super Saiyan): Listen, Vert. I'll be a distraction, while you come up with a counterattack.

Green Heart (Vert): Sounds good. Let's go!

Green Heart then gripped her hand on her spear tightly and she thrusted it at Trick, but unfortunately, he blocked it with his arm and knocked Green Heart back. She quickly did a backflip and landed with her hand sliding on the ground with a green, floating platform beneath her feet.

CFW Trick let out a hysterical laugh as he looked back at Green Heart who was still standing down.

CFW Trick: If that's all you got, this fight's not gonna go well for you.

Green Heart smirked at Trick's cocky statement.

Green Heart (Vert): I was just testing you out. Now, Reiko!

Then, without any warning, Reiko suddenly appeared right in front of Trick. Reiko used this opportunity to attack Trick, kicking him off the ground before running past him with enough speed to make him spin mid-air just before he landed. Reiko then hit him with another kick followed by three punches to the stomach and one more kick behind him that sent him hurtling towards the wall. 

Green Heart then launched her forward with an extra boost of speed.

Green Heart (Vert): Taste this spear of my maelstrom. Rainy Ratnapura!!!

Green Heart quickly charged at Trick and pierced him multiple times in rapid succession with her spear before she finished by slashing him. 

As she stopped slashing, Reiko took the initiative by putting his right hand to his side and forming a green energy sphere then he brings his hand forward and fires a green energy wave at the perverted monster, inflicting a huge amount of damage. The force of the blast was so strong that it launched CFW Trick out of the building that was under construction.

BGM Ends

Reiko (Super Saiyan): Tch! What an amateur.

Green Heart (Vert): That wasn't any trouble at all.

Dawn and Gwen run up right next to them, and they were impressed at Reiko and Vert's teamwork.

Dawn: That was awesome! You guys kicked some major butt!

Gwen: Alrighty then, time to get Rom and Ram, and...

That's when they all froze up as they suddenly realized their top priority.

Green Heart (Vert): Wait, where are Rom and Ram?

Gwen: That jerk! He must've still had them in his grasp when you guys launched him outside.

Dawn: What?!!

Reiko could respond with a facepalm, as he groans in shame.

Reiko (Super Saiyan): ... Aww, crap baskets.

Meanwhile, in another section of the building, Underling was trying to make a run for it, until she was stopped by Black Heart and Uni blocking her path, and before she could turn around, Quasar and Ace were right behind her, blocking her path as well.

Underling (Linda): Another one?

Uni: That's the girl. Me and the others saw her take them!

Black Heart (Noire): I'm not surprised. Look at her, she's likely dumb enough to think she could lick us.

Quasar: Wait, you "lick" people?! Aw, sick! I don't wanna get licked on! I just got this gi dry cleaned... 

Underling (Linda): Wait! Trick was the only one doing any licking, okay? And look if it makes any difference, we only kidnapped them 'cause a weird old hag hired us to.

Ace: Oh, is that so? 

Black Heart (Noire): Hmm... Sounds like the whiny excuse of an underling.

Underling (Linda): Yeah! Exactly! That's it! I'm nothin' but an underling. So then, I'll let you get back to your business.

Unfortunately, Black Heart was not one to forgive and forget.

Black Heart (Noire): Like hell you're getting off the hook! Lace Ribbon Dance!

Black Heart then kicks Underling into the air and continues to kick her in mid-air before she slashes her with the sword, which sends her flying out of the building.

Underling (Linda): Can't blame me for trying!

Black Heart (Noire): Well, that takes care of that.

Quasar: Mm-hmm.

Then, Ace pulled his cell phone as he received a message from Gwen, and suddenly realized something and looked toward Uni.

Ace: Hey, Uni. Didn't you, Nepgear, and Dawn say there was also a big guy that took Rom and Ram?

Uni: Huh? Umm... yeah. Why, what's the matter?

Ace: Well... Apparently, Vert and the others took care of the matter, however, it seems like Rom and Ram are still being held captive.

This made everyone else gasp in shock.  

Quasar: Aww, crap baskets. 

Black Heart (Noire): You can't be serious!

Ace: Unfortunately, I am...

Quasar: Well then, what are we doing standing around here for? Let's get moving!

Quasar immediately took off like a bullet, leaving the others in the dust as both he and Ace ran outside to find the twin CPU Candidates.

Meanwhile, Rom and Ram were still being held captive by Trick, as they landed somewhere outside out of the park.

CFW Trick: As a gentleman, it's my duty to protect those girls. And the best way to do that is by licking! Huh?! Okay, where did they go?

While Trick wasn't looking, Rom and Ram tried to sneak away by climbing over a fence gate, however, Trick quickly noticed them trying to get away.

CFW Trick: Oh, you sassy things! Little girls really are the absolute best. Lickie, lickie, lickie! 

Trick attempted to stop the twins from escaping by licking them, but then in a flash, a solid red-colored version of a traditional Japanese chokutō sword swung at the base of the tongue, which stung Trick greatly.

CFW Trick: Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! Okay, who did that?

BGM - Super Dragon Ball Heroes OST: Awesome Opponent

Suddenly, Rain floated down from the sky right in between Trick and the twins, as he gave Trick a stern look on his face.

Ram: Rain!

Rom: Save us!

Rain silently nodded at the two of them, and then turned his attention back towards Trick.

Rain: You wanna get to them, you'll have to get through me!

CFW Trick: *Evil Chuckle* That's fine by me. After all, I've never really tried tasting a living monkey before. All you Saiyans are mostly brutes known only for getting in trouble anyway.

This, unfortunately, made Rain even more mad as he not only retrieved his sword, but also transformed into a Super Saiyan, without any hesitation. In this form, his hair changed from black to a bright, light yellow color and spiked up with no loose strands. His eyes also changed to a greenish-blue color, and he was now surrounded by a golden flame-like aura flowing upwards.

Rain (Super Saiyan): Okay, that's it! You're dead meat, ya hear me?! I'm gonna make you pay for what you did to these two!

Trick then tried to use his tongue to try and strike at Rain, but the Super Saiyan easily dodged the attack and charged at Trick and kicked him away. Then, he jumps up into the air and extends his hand forward and fires a yellow energy wave at his opponent, inflicting a large amount of damage.

As soon as Rain descended back to the ground, Trick tried attacking him again as he prepared to brace himself for Trick's attack, but then in an unexpected turn of events, before Rain could even counter, a large hammer came out of nowhere and slammed Trick's tongue onto the ground, as he cried in pain.

BGM Ends

Rain (Super Saiyan): (Huh? Wait a sec... I know that hammer better than anyone. Hmph! Speak of the devil...) Glad you finally made it, Blanc!

Rom and Ram both turned to their right side in full relief as their older sister emerged from the shadows and has now come to the rescue.

CFW Trick: Oh, so another little girl wants to join the fight?

Blanc: I'm gonna make you pay in full for what you've done, and trust me, you can't afford it. You disgusting pervert.

This, however, made CFW Trick laugh at her comment.

CFW Trick: Pervert, huh? Kindest thing anyone's said to me.

Blanc: Is that so? Well then, Rain and I will just have to kill you with kindness.

BGM - Choujigen Game Neptune The Animation OST: Hand Off

In a flash of light, Blanc immediately transformed into her HDD Form, known as White Heart.

White Heart has the appearance of a young girl with a petite and slim figure. Her eyes are a crimson red, and her skin is very fair. Her hair is a sky-blue color, it is kept mostly free, and is of short length, barring her bangs, which reach down to her stomach. Her attire consists of a tight battle-suit, which is white and has minor touches of blue lining. The top itself appears as a swimsuit-like armor. The sleeves of this are detached, and reach all the way to her shoulder, with a pair of gauntlets being equipped on both of them, and mechanical like devices connecting the joint (elbow-forearm) of the sleeve.

White Heart (Blanc): Get ready to die! You freaking sicko!

Rain (Super Saiyan): You're gonna wish you never took them! I hope you said your prayers!

Trick jumped into the air and tried to strike at the two with his tongue, but they both dodged and blocked his attack with ease. Then, Rain came up with an idea as he looked at White Heart.

Rain (Super Saiyan): Blanc, let's try and lower his defenses!

White Heart (Blanc): Got it! Alright! Ultra Deviant!

White Heart swung her axe down at Trick, which knocked him down to the ground.

White Heart (Blanc): Cataclysmic freak!

Rain (Super Saiyan): You're mine!

Rain then flies up and comes down to vertically slash the opponent with his sword. Next, he slashes the opponent multiple times, chopping them up into bits. Finally, Rain draws his hand back and brings it forward to fire a yellow energy wave at what's left of the opponent, inflicting a high amount of damage.

Then, Rain continued his attack by firing two slicing energy slashes from his sword at Trick, then launching a third air slash. While Trick was battered by the attacks, Rain charges toward Trick, kicks him upward, and powers up while charging up another attack. The attack is performed by Rain placing both hands above his head with the palms facing the target and one hand in front of the other with the fingers going in opposite directions. 

Rain (Super Saiyan): Take this! Masenko-HAAAAAA!!!!

When Rain thrust his hands forward, they fired a beam of yellow, white, or orange energy, which left CFW Trick stunned.

Trick screamed in pain, as he was on the verge of giving up. That's when White Heart prepared one, final move that would finish off the sick pervert.

Rain (Super Saiyan): Blanc, do it! Finish this pervert off!

White Heart (Blanc): I'll finish this! Tanzerin Trombe!

White Heart then swung her axe around while hitting her opponent multiple times before making a direct hit, which hit Trick so hard that he shot up into the night sky so far that a star twinkled.

BGM Ends

CFW Trick: Goodbye, little girls!

White Heart (Blanc): Hmph! Don't ever pick a fight with a Goddess or a Saiyan! It's never gonna end well.

Rain (Super Saiyan): Especially when said Saiyan or Goddess are pissed off beyond belief.

Both Rain and White Heart reverted back to their base forms and then looked at each other. Blanc stared at Rain for a few seconds, before he took one of her hands and smiled at her. Blanc blushed at Rain's soft touch, but she ultimately smiled back at him.

Rain: Thanks for the help, Blanc. I'm glad you're doing okay after what happened earlier.

Blanc: You're welcome. Sorry that I passed out all of a sudden earlier and made you worry.

Rain: Ah, don't worry about it. It all worked out in the end... Now, I think it's time you owe a certain pair of twins an apology.

Blanc looked at Rom and Ram from the corner of her eyes and she had a slight worried look, before Rain placed his left hand on Blanc's shoulder. She then looked up at Rain.

Rain: Don't worry, Blanc, they'll understand. Go talk to them.

Blanc nodded at her Saiyan companion and walked to her sisters who were giving Blanc a nervous look.

BGM - Choujigen Game Neptune The Animation OST: Nep Symphonia (Sadness Ver.)

Blanc: Hi, Rom. Hi, Ram. I'm so sorry that I let this happen to you... I'm sorry. I'm an awful big sister.

Rom: But, sis.

Blanc turned towards her two little sisters, who were holding the Guardragon coins they had when they were playing earlier today.

Rom: We got presents.

Ram: They're for you and Rain!

Blanc smiled at Rom and Ram, and she walked towards both of them with a big hug.

Rain smiled at the heartwarming scene between the three girls.

Rain: (Good job, Blanc.)

Then, Blanc looked back at Rain and called to him.

Blanc: Rain, wanna join in?

Rain: I thought you'd never ask. 

Rain walked up to the girls and wrapped his arms around the three sisters. 

BGM Ends

As it turned out, Quasar and Ace watched the whole thing play out from a far-away distance, and the two of them smiled at the heartwarming scene.

Quasar: Wow, looks like everything turned out okay.

Ace: I guess we all learned something today. There's nothing more important than protecting and being there for your loved ones.

Quasar: Mm-hmm. Well, now that Rom and Ram are safe, I think it's time we head back.

Ace nodded and the two of them decided to walk back, before they immediately realized something.

Ace: Wait a second... 

Quasar: Hmm?

Ace: I feel like... we're forgetting something.

Quasar: Yeah... I feel it too. But what could we've possibly forgotten-OH MY GOD, WE FORGOT NEPTUNE AND NEPGEAR!!!

Ace: *Sigh* Crap baskets! I forgot we had those two on guard duty.

Back at the entrance of the maintenance dome, Neptune and Nepgear were still waiting for their turn to fight, but nothing happened. Neptune on the other hand, kept swinging her katana at the door.

Neptune: Get out here, you kidnappers! I'll Nep your damn faces off!

Nepgear: Uh, y'know sis. I get the feeling they already beat the bad guys while we've been guarding the door.

Both Quasar and Ace simultaneously facepalmed each other as they both realized their mistake.

Ace: *Sigh* C'mon, let's go get 'em.

Quasar: R-Right...

Elsewhere, in another location, in an empty part in the city of Lowee, the maid that was with the others a little while ago hid herself in an alleyway, and then took off her disguise to reveal her true self. 

The woman had a witch-like appearance. She has very pale skin, almost appearing to be a pale light purple. Her hair is also a light shade of purple, being styled in a short haircut with one long bang to the side. Her apparel consists of a black witch hat with thorns circling it with two different shaded purple flowers on them, and feathers sticking off to the side. Her outfit itself is a black one piece with purple stripes along the cuffs and torso area.

She then opened a small chest to reveal an Anti-Crystal glowing a bright magenta color. She gave out an evil smirk at the gem and snickered mischievously as she had something obviously planned, and it probably wasn't anything good.

Location: Lowee Basilicom

Time: 9:30am

BGM - Blazblue Calamity Trigger OST: Lakeside

The next morning, all the heroes returned to the Lowee Basilicom safely. The four CPU's, along with Quasar, Reiko, Rain, Ace and Gwen, were all sitting together in Blanc's workroom, discussing what happened last night.

Neptune and Gwen: For real? Sleep deprived?

Blanc: That's right. That's the reason why I fainted like that. That's also why I didn't go to the theme park.

Noire: Jeez, you're ridiculous. Honestly...

Rain: Aww man... Blanc, you almost had me worried yesterday. You should've just said something.

Blanc: I've been pulling all-nighters lately, and I just didn't have the energy to do anything. I was rude, but you all still helped me and rescued my little sisters. Thank you, Vert. Thanks, Noire. And the same could be said to you guys, Reiko, Ace, Gwen, and especially you, Rain, thank you.

Vert, Noire, Ace, Rain and Gwen nodded at Blanc's sincere gratitude.

Reiko: Hmph. Yeah, sure, no problem. Just try not to make such a big deal out of this again, got it?

Blanc: Right. And thank you too, Neptune, Quasar. That awful interview. You both spoke and defended me and Rain.

Neptune: Ah, no, that was nothin'. That bratty little girl was just askin' to have someone tell her off.

Quasar: Yeah, Blanc, don't worry about it. After all, that's what friends are for, am I right?

Blanc: Of course. And as my way of showing my thanks, Quasar, I'll be sure to give as many of Lowee's fine delicacies.

That instantly made Quasar's eyes light up with excitement.

Quasar: No way, are you serious? That's totally AWESOME!!! Thanks a ton, Blanc.

Just then, Rom entered the room and came walking to the table.

Rom: Hey, Blanc, Rain! Look at this.

Rom then showed everyone a picture of Blanc on a book that looked like it was smiling.

Gwen: Aww, how cute.

Rain: Yeah, no kidding. We might have to hang this up on the wall.

Blanc: That's really nice, Rom.

Blanc smiled at the picture, but then it soon turned into a look of concern as she looked closer at the drawing and instantly realized that it was another one of her books. Then, Blanc got up and ran off in the direction which had a bunch of boxes lying around. When she got there, she saw Ram was also drawing in the book, with Nepgear, Uni, and Dawn all reading what was inside the book. 

Blanc: Ram! Stop drawing in that book!

Ram: What's the big deal, sis? You've got so many copies. They're all the same book.

Blanc: Just stop!

Ram: Why? What's wrong?

Blanc was beyond embarrassed as she blushed furiously. 

Blanc: B-Because... I PULLED THOSE ALL-NIGHTERS IN ORDER TO WRITE THAT BOOK!!!

Everyone else then turned towards Blanc with concerned and confused looks on their faces.

Everyone: ... Wait, WHAAAAAAAT!!! 

Vert and Ace: Hold on, you were writing a book instead of working on the satellite system? 

Quasar: For real? Is that what this is all about?

Rain couldn't help but laugh to himself as he patted Blanc's head.

Rain: Oh, Blanc... What am I ever gonna do with you? Still, you decided to pick up writing again, huh? 

Gwen: Yeah, it certainly has been a long while since you've done that.

Noire: Huh? Uni, what's Blanc's book about?

Uni: I haven't read the whole thing yet, but so far, it's about a girl who fell from the sky and boy with superpowers who save the world together. 

It was then that Neptune, Quasar, Reiko and the others each had a copy of Blanc's book in their hands, as they all read it together.

Neptune: That's weird. This girl you described. She sounds just like you.

Quasar: Yeah, and the hero almost sounds a lot like Rain.

Rain: Woah, really? Lemme see...

Rain read through some of the pages and then noticed something that caught his eye.

Rain: Holy crap, you're right! I'm the hero! 

Blanc: Don't read it!

Dawn: Oh, wow! Big bro, this part of the book is awesome! The part where the boy saves the girl, and then they spent time together after he saved her.

Reiko: I guess, but I'm more interested in this part where the main character is fighting against... What the? The monster that the hero's fighting... sounds a lot like me!

Nepgear: Oh, wow. The hero's taking her on an air ride to dreamland. That's intense!

Quasar: Hey, Gwen. Take a look at this. It says that the hero and the girl are now running on a rainbow racetrack floating in orbit!

Gwen: Wow, seriously? Huh, you're right... Sounds pretty cool.  

Ace: Hmm? Well, that's interesting. Rain, right here on page 72, it says that you and the girl [Blanc] are kissing directly under the moonlight.

Rain: Aww, Blanc! I didn't know that you cared about me like that. 

Blanc's face at this point was now as red as a tomato, as she was still embarrassed by the whole situation. 

Blanc: ... STOP READING IT!!!!!!!!!
