A/N: I finally got around to getting this chapter up, also it's time for an update. Now that chapter 9 has gone up this story will be going on a bit of a hiatus so that I may plan out some awesome and hilarious events for the upcoming "Mall Mayhem" story arc. I also plan on adding some of the sexiest (for lack of a better word) foreshadowing you've ever seen. The story is also going to be getting progressively darker from her on out as well so look forward to it. I'm also thinking of making a unique cover art for the story, but don't expect it to be amazing as I am not very good at that kinda stuff. And without further ado, On with the story. Wait... I feel a disturbance in the fourth wall... oh well, I'm sure it's nothing.
"Say, boss?"
"Yo what's up Magic?" It seems like the two buddies were chatting it up about something or another over at a nice cafe that Neptune had gotten addicted to.
"Aren't your powers hereditary?"
"Herediwhat now?"
"It means genetic."
"Ohhh. Yeah, I think so. Why?"
"And didn't you get them from your father?" Oh I see where she's going with this, I see what she's sizzle sayin.
"Yeah, why...?" Okay just give her a second… any minute no- "Ohhhh!" Thata girl. "You mean that Nep Jr might be able to do it too?"
"Well you do have the same father so I don't see why she wouldn't. Although it does raise the question of whether she knows it or not. Her shadow hasn't shown any signs that it could come to life and attack like yours can." And so the plot moistens (that word is kinda gross, I mean seriously, Moist? Come on).
"...I guess that's a good thing." Huh?
"Huh?" How do they keep doing that?
"Well I mean, she doesn't have to worry about being hunted down. And if Ass… Assitch? If they found out about that then they'd probably go after her too and stuff." Aha! So she really just doesn't wanna involve her little sister, I freakin' called it.
"I see… well then hopefully she wont get caught up in our mess." Magic said that but… a thought formed in her head 'Though considering how much she's grown to love you she might get involved on her own if she finds out.' She was still rather concerned.
"So… where do you think the story's gonna go from here?"
Wait what?! This is one of those chapters? Oh and now they're both looking at me too.
"Well yeah, I mean were you expecting us to stay put and not break the fourth wall for the whole story?"
Well okay that's a fair point I guess.
"So uh… about the story."
Oh uh, well you see…
"Yeeeeeesss?"
...I haven't thought of an ending yet!
"That explains so much."
Oh c'mon Magic, I sorta just started this whole story on a whim. Besides, I think this is one of the few stories that can get away with saying stuff like that, I mean really It's not like people are expecting super amazing plot and character dev with a side of plot twist. I'm not even sure if people wanna see that kinda stuff, if they did they'd go read some other story that can actually provide that kinda stuff.
"So basically you're putting this story on a hiatus so you can think of an ending… or are you just lazy and planning to use that time to work on other stories so that people don't develop any higher expectations for this story?"
I uh… SCENE CHANGE!
"Hey wait were no-"
Nepgear paced around the room, to the point where she was expecting a little ding sound effect to signal that she'd entered some cheat code she'd never heard of. Why was she pacing? Well apparently the whole food eating extravaganza was a team event and she was worried she might let her big sister down. The nervousness was practically plastered onto her face as she continued her pacing.
"Uhhh, you okay kid?"
"Oh, Auntie Croire. No, it's fine, I feel great."
"You sure?"
"Yeah, It's fine."
"Well if you say so." Croire let the matter drop and returned to her own preparations for the contests, she was a proud champion three years in a row after all. She needed to make sure that she would stay on top no matter what. Which essentially meant that she had a lot of time on her hands.
...Wait that's it? But if the scene's over then I need to find another one before Neptune and Magic find me.
"In summation, I have hired a bounty hunter to aid us in our quest to capture the Purple Phantom." The muscular old man known as Mr Badd spoke as he made his pecs do a little jig through the power of flexing.
"If you don't stop that right now, I'm gonna make sure you never have any children as long as you live." Linda the underling, A.K.A his boss, didn't exactly appreciate the show and was more than ready to get this conversation good and done with so that they could prepare a plan to maximize their belly power for the upcoming food bonanza… or whatever it was called. "So who's this bounty hunter you hired anyway?" As Linda spoke those words a red shadow zoomed in front of her and proceeded to take one of her hands in its own.
"That would be me Red! Waifu hunter extraordinaire!" Oh great it's another whackjob. The girl known as Red gave off the aura of an expert hunter… in her mind. In reality she looked like a psycho who just escaped from a mental institute… to Linda. In really real reality she was simply a well-endowed loli with an eccentric personality and a golden dragon wrapped around her person… and she had a beam saber too… I wonder if I should try to get me one of those… Oh yeah, story, right!
"She just looks like a total loony to me." Linda was not impressed, but even still- "I guess as long as you don't slow us down then it doesn't matter."
"You can leave it to me." Hey wait a minute… aren't they still holding hands?
"Okay great now give me back my hand!" There you go.
Wait… I hear something… pitter patter pitter patter… footsteps they're onto me! Uh uh, oh I know, I'll loose them in the jungle gym… That sounds stupid.
"I've got you now bub!"
Uhhhh… Hi Neptune... So… How've ya been?
"No no no, you're not getting out of this one, you're going right back to do some planning for this story. You started it so now you're gonna finish it!"
C'mon Magic let's be reasonable, there are other stories that have even more follows and favs. A story like this doesn't need any more depth like all those other ones I've done does it? Besides, they're probably just so focused on my attempts at humor that they don't even want more from it.
"Maybe they don't, but can you honestly tell me that you'd be okay with that?"
…Damn it you're right!
"Of course I'm right, now you get back out there and get some plans together and show everyone what you're made of."
Yeah!
"Oh, and this story has to be at least 25 chapters so good luck!"
Yea-Wait what?! *Poof* How did they do that…? Oh well, I've got some planning to do… 25 chapters huh… yaaaaaayyyyy.
A/N: So despite what my bitchier self says in the story, I am quite looking forward to doing more with this series. I actually do have some plans for the ending, but not entirely… that and I figured I could get away with saying that considering the reputation I've built for myself on this community. And even though it may take some time for this story to make a triumphant comeback I can assure you that the chapters will be considerably longer since I want to jam in even more content than before. So until this story comes back I'm gonna be working on other stuff to appease people's appetites since apparently people actually find my work enjoyable (what a twist). And hey, I'm glad people ARE LIKING THIS SERIES, I ACCIDENTALLY HIT THE CAPS LOCK! Okay were good. So until then, I will see you in another story. Till then!
