Hyperdimension Neptunia: Land of the Goddesses: Episode 6-The Console War.

Episode 6: The Console War.
The group heads back to Planeptune, and into Neptune’s Basilicom. Everybody is relieved to have escaped Celestia. Compa and Vert tend to any wounds that the group might’ve sustained during the escape. However,  Neptune’s attention is clearly on Historie. 

Neptune: Okay, Histoire. We’ve rescued you, but there’s a lot of questions that I have to ask you.

 

Neptune opens the book, and Histoire appears.

 

Histoire: Neptune! Goddesses! I’m so relieved that you’re alright. Thank you so much for saving me!
Neptune: No problem, Histoire! Umm… I’m so sorry for not being there for you! All of this is my fault.
Histoire: You were out doing your duties, Neptune. It was an unforeseen event that was out of your control. In fact, I imagine that you have a lot of questions right now, primarily about Arfoire and Rei Ryghts. Am I correct?
Neptune: Yeah… About them…
Noire: How come you never told us about those two?
Histoire: Well, I didn’t know how to tell you. All four of you goddesses were created periodically, before and after Arfoire turned evil. You all didn’t awake until after I took you four out of Celestia. That is why you don’t know who Arfoire and Rei Ryghts are. 

 

Compa and IF sit in chairs and listen in on the conversation. Vert sneaks up behind IF and places her on her lap. IF blushes.


Vert: So what they said were true? They were the original goddesses before us?
Histoire: Yes… Where did those two humans come from?
IF: Oh… We joined Neptune in order to help look for you.
Compa: We also helped Neptune to find the other three goddesses!

Histoire smiles.

 

Histoire: Well, it seems that some good came out of my kidnapping. You four goddesses finally met each other, and some humans have put their faith in the goddesses again. I apologize for not telling you about Arfoire and Rei, as well as not letting the four of you meet each other. I wanted you all to focus on running your lands.
Neptune: We could have done that, and be friends with each other.
Histoire: I don’t know. Before, Arfoire and Rei worked together. In time, Rei fell in love with Arfoire. 

 

Noire blushes.

 

Histoire: But Arfoire rejected her. In return, Rei Ryghts tried to overthrow Arfoire. Arfoire couldn’t bring herself to kill Rei, and her guilt led her into joining Rei. I was afraid that the same thing would happen if you four interacted with each other.

 

Noire blurts out a loud laugh.

 

Noire: W-W-What makes you think we would fall in love with each other!? T-T-That’s absurd! Am I right? Ha ha! Ha ha! Ha ha!


She slaps Neptune on the back three times as she laughs. Vert forms a curious smile across her face. Histoire laughs a bit, and smiles.


Histoire: In some ways, Noire, you remind me of Rei Ryghts.

Noire is stunned.

 

Histoire: Anyway, I think I might’ve made a mistake before. These two humans helped to bring you four together, along with your help Neptune. I think this was the best decision, since we now have to stop Arfoire and Rei from destroying Gameindustri. I trust that you all can do what I couldn’t do all those years ago.

Neptune: Don't blame yourself, Histoire. You helped us back then, but now it's our turn to help you. Arfoire and Rei Ryghts need you to rewrite history. I think we can do the same, but in a different way. Noire: You're thinking about saving them, aren't you? Blanc: That sounds a little far-fetched. Arfoire took us all down without breaking a sweat back in Lowee. Histoire: I may have an asnwer to that. Rei Ryghts created a Red Sharecite when Arfoire broke her heart. The Red Sharecite contains someone's dark desires, making them more powerful. If we can destroy the Red Sharecite, this could turn them back into their old selves. Neptune: Sounds like a plan. Vert: However, we need to keep you in a safe place so that those two won't get a hold of you again. Noire: That leaves Planeptune out of the question. Neptune: Hey! Noire: Face it, Neptune, if you didn't slack off all the time, you could have stopped Histoire from being kidnapped. Histoire: Noire, stop.


Noire's and Neptune's, eyes turn red for a second. Then they return to normal.


Neptune: Noire, could you get off my case for one second? Noire: And why should I do that? Neptune: I admit that I made a mistake in the past, but if it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have any friends right now! Noire: I-I could have gotten friends any time I wanted! I don't need you, or anybody else here!

Vert's, and Blanc's, eyes turn red for a second as well.


Vert: Wow, Noire. If you got off your high-horse for just a second, then maybe you would have a girlfriend by now. Noire: W-W-W-What are you saying, Vert!? Blanc: She's telling you to become a whore like she is. Vert: Excuse me? Blanc: You've turned poor IF into your little pet. Give her some room, won't ya? You do this even in public. Learn some decency. IF: I don't... necessarily... hate it...

Vert gets up, puts IF in the chair, and stands in front of Blanc.


Vert: Unlike Noire, I'm not afraid to show my love to people that I care about. IF: Love!? Noire: I don't love Ne- Vert: Besides, this is a topic that kids like you don't understand. Blanc: "Kid?" Vert: Maybe you should go through puberty first, and then we can continue this discussion.


Blanc's face turns bright red, and she bears her teeth. She gets up out of her chair and gets in Vert's face.


Blanc: I'm a grown woman, and the SAME AGE as you! Vert: You could have fooled me, flatty! Blanc: Neptune's chest is flat, just like mine! Neptune: Hey! When I transform, I'm almost as big as Vert!

The four goddesses continue to argue with each other. IF, Compa, and Histoire are shocked.


IF: What just happened?


From Celestia, Arfoire and Rei Ryghts are watching the drama unfold. Arfoire is using her magic to create a portal to help her, and Rei, to see. They're sitting in chairs in front of the portal.


Rei Ryghts: Looks like dissension has risen amongst the girls. Nice job with the spell, babe. Arfoire: Thanks. I just wish I had some popcorn while this was happening.

Rei Ryghs reaches down and picks up a bag of chips.


Rei Ryghts: I've got chips. Arfoire: That'll do.

Back in Planeptune, the drama continues.


Noire: Like I said, I don't need you guys. I never did. I can stop Arfoire and Rei by myself. Neptune: Ugh! Fine! Go back to Lastation and die alone. Noire: Gladly! I wish I never met you. All you've done was give me trouble! Vert: You're the one giving yourself grief. Blanc: Oh, shut up, both of you! Vert: Quiet child, the adults are talking. Blanc: That's it! I'm going back to Lowee. Screw all of you!


Blanc transforms into her goddess form, and leaves the Basilicom.


Vert: Well, since we're done here, how about we go back to Leanbox, Iffy? IF: Okay. Compa: What? If whispers something to Compa.


IF: I'm going to try and convince Lady Vert to come back. You try and do the same thing with Blanc. Tell Histoire to do the same thing with Nep. Compa: Oh, okay.


Vert transforms, takes IF, and they fly away.


Noire: Hmph! I should have left a long time ago. Neptune: I'm sooo sorry that I wanted you to have a life. Noire: Screw off!


Noire transforms, and leaves the building.

Histoire: Neptune, Arfoire and Rei Ryghts are still out there! Neptune: I'll stop them, even without the others.


Neptune walks out of the room and into her bedroom.

Histoire: Nep-


Histoire starts to fly after Neptune, but Compa blocks her off with her arm.

Compa: Let her go for now. She needs to cool off. Try talking to her in a little bit. She'll go after Noire later. Me and Iffy will handle Vert and Blanc. Compa runs out out of the room and out of the building. Back in Celestia, Arfoire's portal disappears.


Arfoire: Well, that was refreshing. Rei Ryghts: Quite. However, we need to get serious now. We need Histoire back. Arfoire: We should also kidnap those two humans as well. They're going to cause just as much trouble as those four will. Rei Ryghts: True, but I have to ask: What kind of spell did you put on them? Arfoire: I call it the Red Ring. It'll make the goddesses act on their deepest resentments with each other, preventing them from working together. Eventually, they'll hate each other so much that they'll go to war with each other... A Console War, if you will. Rei Ryghts: And when they fight each other, they'll cause a greater catastrophe than what we did all those years ago. Arfoire: The people will turn on them just like they turned on us, leaving their Sharecites drained of energy. They'll be powerless! Rei Ryghts: And when they're distracted, we'll get Histoire and those two human girls.
