Here's an unusual crossover to most people; Final Fantasy XV and HyperDimension Neptunia. So far, I've never seen a crossover between Neptunia and any Final Fantasy games. I finished Final Fantasy XV and I had fun with it. As for HyperDimension Neptuinia, I've never played it but it was fascinating. Although the thing that upsets me it is the fact there are hardly any male characters there (though it's part what it's supposed to be).

The takes place in the first game of HyperDimension Neptunia, while in Final Fantasy, it takes place after Noctis was sealed inside the crystal. Noctis will be transported after an agreement of a pair and help Neptune save Gamindustri/Celestia while the Ring of the Lucii is recharging. Only Noctis will be in this universe, until I can come up with ideas to add Prompto, Gladiolus and Ignis in as well.

I feel like I'm going to consider giving Noctis a harem but I'm not entirely certain that I want to yet. I'll give lots of thought as I'll progress through this.

Without further to do, let's start the prologue!

"Are you sure you want to do this?" A young voice of a girl was heard.

"You'll need all the help you can get, don't you?" An old man's voice was heard. "Besides, the ring will take a while to recharge to reach it's full potential. It'll give him enough time for him to help you save your world."

"I... thank you so much, I don't know what to say. I'll take full responsibility of what happens to him."

"Don't worry, I think he'll take care of himself just fine."

"I hope for him and your world's sake."

"I know this will be hard for him to understand what I'm doing but it's for him to learn how to experience life and also to help him move forward. He has suffered a lot of losses and I do not want him to lose anymore loved ones. He'll find some answers once he journeys through this world."

"I see, I'll do my best to explain everything what you have told me, to him."

"It's time, then. The time that your new journey that will help you understand your destiny and what your heart desires. I once again fear I have left too much unsaid. You'll once more be placing a great burden on those who will bear with you. What you'll do is all on your own. I promise that you will return to where you must be. Wheresoever you'll be, the line of Lucis goes with you... Walk tall, my son."

"Uuuugh... My head..." Noctis Lucis Caelum, the XIV about-to-be king blinked his eyes a couple of times groaning from his headache which managed to fade away as he tried to get up. He looked around to find himself surrounded by black fog that obscures most of his sight, or that fact there's nothing to see about. Little did he notice that a purple-haired girl wearing a white hoddie and a small purple skirt, next to him was just as confused as him.

"Where am I?" Both of them said at the same time. The two faced each other with awkward silence until one of them screamed.

"YEOW! Who in seven puddings are you?!" Noctis held his head hard as his headache was back.

"Ow! Not so loud, please!" Noctis groaned.

"Whoops! Sorry 'bout that, I just freaked out the moment I saw ya."

"Right... so what are you doing here, and where are we?"

"Yeah, about that... I think I got the same problem too. I feel like I've been splashed with fluorescent paint and stuck under a black light."

"I haven't a clue of what you just said. But as for me, I feel like a giant titan punched me on the head."

"Ouch! I think that's worse than mine! Did that really happen?!" Noctis began having memories when facing the titan at the Disc of Cauthess and boy, did that tire him like heck.

"You could say that, I don't think you want to meet him, though." Noctis warned her.

"Aw. Now you got me curious. Heck, I even wanna see it now!... Soooo what do you think we should do now?"

"what? I thought you know what you're doing in here." Noctis cried out.

"But I only just got here, not like I wanted to stay here in the first place. I can't see a thing here and I think I'll step onto something gross, like ABC gum! Should we just wait for more quotes to be written down?"

"I'm sorry, what?"

"I apologise for the delay. Did you two wait long?" A certain voice was called to them. The pair's eyes widen as they look around to find the one who just spoke.

"Who said that?!" Noctis shouted.

"Whoa, a voice! Wait, delay for what? Is my soul going to heaven? Nonono, I don't wanna die yet!" Neptune freaked out. Noctis sweatdropped from the girls overreaction.

"I'm...pretty sure that's not it. Look, how about we just to whoever is speaking here, could be important."

"Hm... I guess we got to, don't we?" The girl sighed.

"Thank you both. Allow me to explain. My name is Histoire, a tome."

"A t-t-t-t-tomb?! I knew it! I'm so DEAD!" The girl freaked out again. Noctis face-faulted when she reached into that kind of conclusion. "Man, what do I want on my tombstone, right?"

"She said tome, not tomb!" Noctis shouted angrily. "It's tome, right?" He then asked to make sure if he got that right.

"Y-Yes, sorry if it confuses you, I'll tell you about it some other time. Right now, you two have fallen to the world below Celestia. I am reaching out to you to ask a favour."

"Reaching out? Oh, you mean like a phone?" The girl asked.

"Well, something like that."

"hold on, wait, what world below? Below hell?!"

"W-When I said below Celestia, I meant you and Noctis have merely fallen unconsciousness, Neptune." Noctis's eyes widen when not only did she mention the girl's name, but she also said his name as well.

"...Then, Ms. Heavenly Voice, how do you know my name? Also, who's Noti- uh, Knockti- er... Not?" Neptune began having trouble saying Noctis's name. It wasn't a long name, not even hard to pronounce either.

"It's Noctis." The prince corrected her. "And that's my name, by the way."

"Got it, Knock-whatever, so how do you know our names?" Neptune questioned. There was silence from Histoire for a couple of minutes before she could speak again.

"I know the both of you are in doubt, I am Histoire, the tome that has assisted the goddesses of Celestia for generation. I stand for the world's everything and the world is my everything. There is nothing I do not know." Histoire explained. "Plus, I created you, Neptune. Of course I know your name."

'She created her? Sounds a little bit hard to believe.' Noctis thought.

"So, you like, gave birth to me or whatever. You're my mom? You've got kids? I see." Neptune said. Noctis face-faulted again from her lack of understanding and her dumb conclusion.

"Do... Do not make it sound like that." Histoire pleaded. "I created, not birthed. Why do you have such a disappointed tone?"

'I doubt this girl is too energetic to feel shocked or surprised.' Noctis thought. There was a little bit of silence before Histoire found more words to say.

"I understand this is a new sensation for you. I have been apart from you all for ages, locked away from this world." It took a moment for Neptune to understand everything she said, due to the fact her brain is slow with understanding things.

"Oh, okay, gotcha. So my dad locked you up and ran away with me soon after I was born? Hold on, are you my dad? Why'd you take me away for? And how many times did you get it on with mom?" Noctis spluttered from Neptune's statement.

"WHAT THE-? I'm not your father! I'm not even old enough to be one yet!" Noctis exclaimed. "I'm not even sure you could consider her as your mother, hell, I don't even know who she is!" He couldn't believe what he was hearing. He wonders what's up with that girl's mind.

"Y-Yes, you're taking this in an entirely inappropriate direction. I clearly said it is not like that." Histoire protest. "I created you and the other three CPUs with the former goddess. That was, however, a dire error. I only wish to end the tragedy caused by my own mistake. Please, help me." The desperation of the tome's voice tempted Noctis, however he still doesn't have a clue to why he's here and also why she needs him, a stranger of all of people. He won't accept something so easily unless there was a reason why. He wants answers but he wanted them in private since Neptune might get in the way.

"Before I make an answer, I need you to ask me a couple of questions." Noctis stated.

"Very well, what is it?" Histoire asked.

"Hold on, I need Neptune to-" Noctis stopped and gasped when he saw Neptune gone from his and Histoire's sight. "Wha-?! Where'd she go?!"

"It would seem that Neptune has simply woken up before we could continue more." Histoire explained. "Oh, there was much more I had to tell the both of you."

"Well, at least I can get some quiet time." Noctis gave a sigh of relief. He wasn't sure if he could hear anymore of Neptune's crazy words.

"Well, this might make things easier because there are actually things that I want to discuss with you alone, Noctis Lucis Caelum."

"Is that so?"

"Yes, but since you want answers first, I'd be happy to give some to you. So what is it that you want to ask me?" Noctis coughed a few times to get his voice right as well as finding which question to start first.

"Okay, let's start with what is this place?"

"I'm not sure myself, but you may be in a blank dream full of silence and nothingness, so no matter how far you go, you won't find an exit. You're only in a dream so by the time you wake up, you'll come back to reality."

"I see. So what is this world you're talking about?"

"The world is known as Celestia; a world with four nations; Planeptune, Lastation, Leanbox and Lowee. These four nation are protected by goddesses known as CPUs, also known as Console Patron Units. Their job is to protect their nation and their people from monsters and other conflict."

"That sounds like a lot of responsibilities, almost like a king or queen."

"Indeed. The goddesses have been fighting for eons, you see. The Console War has lasted for a long time already. I was sealed during that time... The world is on the brink of chaos now. The fall of the CPUs would be the fall of Celestia."

'Another war? There really can't be peace in other worlds, can there?' Noctis thought as he let out a sigh.

"Next question; Why do you need my help to save your world?"

"Excuse me?"

"Why bring me, of all people to save you? There could be somebody else who an help you. I'm still in the middle of a conflict. I was sealed by the crystal and now I'm ended up in here. I need to restore my kingdom and save my friends... oh no, Prompto! Gladio! Ignis!"

"P-Please, calm yourself, Noctis! They're alive and safe! They still stand against the darkness as they still have hope. They are sustained by faith that you will return and help save your world!"

"What do you know about them?!" Noctis growled. "You don't even know what's happing to my world! Why summon me when everything in my world is in trouble and only I can do it?! I have no purpose here! The only thing I have is the crystal which I was stuck in and the world that is depending on me! Why leave them alone and wait for me? What makes you think I should help you?!"

"BECAUSE KING REGIS WAS THE ONE WHO WANTED ME TO BRING YOU HERE!" Histoire yelled at the top of her lungs. The moment she mention Noctis's father made him speechless and shocked. Regis? His father was the one who brought him to Gamindustri? "Ah! I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to yell at you."

"Dad... sent me here?"

"Y...yes, he did."

"...No... he's dead. It can't be him! You're lying!"

"I am not lying. It's true that he is dead, but his spirit still lives and that spirit went to see me, along with a big blue crystal that can speak, and it had you inside it." Noctis flinched as he remembered he was still inside the crystal. "Your father said that before you go back to Lucis, you need to learn to understand more about life."

"Life?" Noctis asked.

"Yes. Regis said that you have not experience much about the world and its habitants around it, because of the empire that has brought your world to conflict. You were never able to witness happiness in your kingdom. He also told me about how the Empire betrayed you and the death of your bride-to-be, I'm very sorry for your loss."

"Are you saying that I'll be able to learn something if I'm in your world?"

"That's what your father told me. I agreed to help for you, as I am also in need for more help. The crystal was slightly stubborn about but it agreed to let you go in exchange for the Ring of the Lucii." When Histoire said that, Noctis looked at his right finger and realised he doesn't have the Ring of the Lucii anymore. "The crystal has the ring now since that ring needs to be energized with light from the crystal. Only then, once the sacred ring is replete, can the true king complete his ascension, at least that's what the crystal told me."

"Is there anything else my father needed me to do, besides seeing more things in life?"

"Yes. Because of the darkness in your world is spreading much more and is getting stronger by the month. He wanted you to learn what's more around the world than just royalty. He wants you to go to another world to train hard to be ready to face your enemy, such as the one who has been deceiving you."

"Ardyn..." Noctis muttered as he gritted his teeth remembering that bastard.

"That is why Regis sent you here, to become stronger and witness more life and peace as well as bring the impossible possible. After all, your father did the same too."

"Wait, did you say Dad came to this world, too?"

"Ack! I spoke too much. I wasn't supposed to say that."

"What?! He actually came here too?!" Noctis could hear Histoire let out a sigh.

"...Yes, he did. But I'm afraid I cannot tell you more about it. I made a promise to Regis I wouldn't say."

"Dad did? I see. One more thing, how do I wake up from this dream?"

"That's something that you can only do, not me. Though I'm actually surprised that I was able to keep up my conversation with you for so long. You must be very special, then again you are a prince who's becoming a king soon."

"Go figure."

"I won't ask you but I'm begging you. Will you help free me?" It took some time before Noctis could make up his mind. All this explanation was a lot to take in, but it seems his father knows much more about this world, which drove him curiosity. If this is what is father wanted him to do, then there really was no other way. Besides, he couldn't beat Ardyn's games, he was hopeless a that time. Noctis refused to make that mistake again.

"Very well, I'll help you. If this is what Dad want me to do, then I guess I don't have much of a choice. If your world will help me grow stronger and defeat my enemies, then so be it."

"You will? You'll help me?"

"You got it. It's the only thing I can do anyway. If this will help me restore my kingdom, then it'll have to do."

"Thank you so much. You sound just like your father." The happiness on Histoire's voice made Noctis feel slightly better. "I'll tell you everything alongside Neptune some other time. Please take care of her. She has lost everything and she doesn't know who she is."

"She doesn't know who she is? Does she have amnesia?" Noctis asked.

"Yes. Neptune means so much so me, and yet I cannot do anything to help her. She needs someone to guide and accompany her on this dangerous journey...Someone who can be with her. Will you accept this request?" Noctis was silent. Histoire's plea was very honest as she cares for the goddess. Although he just met Neptune, she reminds him a bit of Iris, an energetic, naïve and excited. Seeing that to be the case, Noctis is sure to handle her well.

"I will. I'll do as much as I can to protect her. Just leave everything to me." Noctis replied.

"Thank you, Noctis. May we meet again. Oh, and this is what Regis said before he left you: 'Walk tall, my son.'" Hearing that reminded him of the time he departed Insomnia for the first time and his father said that to him. He smiled as he tells him that once more as light began entering the void meaning the dream has come to an end.

"Man, that was insane..." Noctis woke up and found himself on a bed. He looked around to see a room full of pink colour, much to his dismay. Being in a room this pink would mean he's in a girl's room.

"Where in Lucis am I?" Noctis asked himself as he slowly got up. He began to stretch himself to ensure his body is working properly, eventually he had no problems in terms of moving around. He then saw his Engine Blade beside the bed, which means he at least got a weapon to use. He picked up and tried to send it away to his 'storage room' and apparently that ability still works.

"Aghhhh-guuuhhh-woooohhh!" he suddenly heard a loud moan from another room and the voice he heard was very familiar. "This is way too tight! I'm gonna snap, I can't breathe, I can't make...more...comments!"

"That sounded like Neptune...in trouble!" Noctis cried out as left the room to find his friend. It was coming from the first storey as he was in the second. He leaped down the second storey and headed for the patient bedroom. However, he wished that he didn't open the door when he saw Neptune half-naked if it were for the bandages, courtesy for another girl who had pink hair, wore a white jumper and red skirt, and was wrapping the girl around tightly.

"GAH! What in the hell?!" Noctis shrieked from out of nowhere. It was a moment when the girls spotted him, the pink one blushed red while the purple one already had a red face, due to the lack of air.

"AH! Don't come in, yet!" The pink-haired girl squeaked. "Just lemme finish this first... Nep-Nep, please get a hold of yourself. I'll unwrap you right n-ahhh!" Instead of unwrapping the bandages, they became more tighter when she messed up. It'll be ironic how Neptune would die from the one who's trying to nurse her.

"It's tighter now! You're just tangling me up... Stoppit! Gimme scissors... gimme now!" Neptune gasped for breath. "Put 'em in my hands and I'll do it myself...!" Despite her lack of clothing, Noctis had just enough of seeing his new friend strangled. He searched for the nearest scissors he could find and used a cutting instrument to cut out most of the bandages that were tightening her. As she finally regained her breath, Noctis was just about to leave before he said one more thing.

"Call me when you're done! I'll be upstairs if you need me!" He shouted as he went back upstairs, slammed himself into the bed and waited. Talk about the worst way to start when you have just woken up. After a few minutes of waiting, Noctis heard the door opening, it was the pink-haired girl.

"You can come down now." She told him. Noctis gave a sigh of relief after the torture was over and went down with her to see Neptune finally on her hoodie and skirt on.

"Whew! Thanks for the help there, buddy! I needed that like a lot!" She smiled.

"Don't mention it, just what were you two doing?" Noctis asked.

"Well..." Compa began to explain what happened between her and Neptune while Noctis was away.

Flashback

"Shuuuuut... up! Oh, crackers. Did I break something? Where am I? My room...?" Neptune groaned as she blinked her eyes a few times to wake up. She lifted herself up to find a girl next to her.

"Oh, you're up. Good morning, sleepyhead! Well, good afternoon, technically..." She smiled.

"Um, this isn't my room, huh? is it yours? Why'm I tucked into your bed so snugly?"

"Well, let's see. It all happened last night. I was looking up into the sky and saw a shooting star. That was you."

"I was a shooting star? Are you yanking my hoodie strings? I fell from the sky?"

"I'm pretty sure. I followed you to the ground with my eyes and you definitely slammed into the earth like a spear. I pulled you from the ground you pierced so elegantly and carried you to my bed, since you were passed out!"

"All by yourself? That's cool, thanks! You're a lot stronger than you look!"

"And you weren't the only one I had to pick up that night."

"Say wha?!" Neptune did not see this coming. The girl picked more than one person that night.

"I found another person lying on the tree by himself. He was tall but looked pretty young, I think around our age. He didn't look like he was dead, but I saw a lot of dirt and a few scratches in him. He might have been involved in an accident or something. I didn't want to leave him there with injuries, so I took both of you in to my home."

"Both of us, huh? Wow! You must be a powerhouse for someone who can take two at once."

"I attend a nursing school. Transporting limp bodies is part of our training, so I'm used to it! My name is Compa, um..." She stopped when she didn't know Neptune's name.

"Oh, I'm Neptune. Compa, huh? Then, should I call you... Com... uh... whatever. Compa's fine."

"It's nice to meet you, Nept-... Nepee-... Neptaa... Ne-pelvis... Nep... tumor... W-Wahh..." Compa shrugged, struggling to get Neptune's name right. Neptune made a slight sweatdrop from this.

"Oh, is it confusing you? Okay, then you can call me Neptuna, Nep-Nep, Neppermint, or something else!" She suggested for her.

"Okay, then I pick Nep-Nep. It's nice to meet you, Nep-Nep!" Compa smiled.

"Likewise! So... where's the big boy?"

"You mean the one I brought home along with you? He's upstairs in my other bedroom, which I like to call guest room. He's still resting, so don't worry much about him."

"Okay, let's go see him. I wanna see what he looks like. Oh, maybe a fated prince or an adventurer or maybe a hero from another world! Aaaaah! I'm so excited!"

"Wait, now?!" Compa squeaked. "But you look all beat up everywhere. Allow me to take a look real quick." Neptune was confused at first until she took a look at herself, and boy, did she look pretty messy? There was dust, dirt and a couple of scratches on her skin as well.

"Oh, yeah, I am kinda scraped up, huh?" She muttered. "Thanks, nurse-in-training, I'm trusting you with this important task!"

"Sure, but I've just started... and I'm not too savvy... I get bandages all tangled up." Compa began examining her injuries. They didn't look like much but they still need to be healed. "Your injuries aren't bad, but the scratches need disinfecting. After that, I'll wrap you up. It might sting a little, but hang in there. How much bandage should I use? A little? A lot?"

"Hmm, use it all up!" Neptune smiled. "Wrap me up good so it doesn't come loose. Besides, it's a waste if they don't last."

"Okay, then I'll just use what I have. Please let me know if it's too tight. This way... that way... loop it over..."

Flashback End

"And you probably know the rest after that." Compa finished her story.

"Yeah, thank god I wasn't there to see it. Still, I guess I'll have to thank you for bringing me here to your house." Noctis smiled. Although he doesn't know the fact he was taken in, he was happy to be brought in to heal. Compa blushed at Noctis's smile.

"D-Don't mention it! It's my duty as a nurse after all." Compa stuttered a bit.

"Ahem!" Neptune interrupts the pair to get their attention towards her. "By the way, I was thinking while you were saving me from death stranglement from bondages... who the heck are you?" Compa looked at Neptune in disbelief when she referred the bandages as bondages.

"Th-They're bandages!" Compa stuttered as she was correcting her.

"What do you mean? I thought we met in a blank dream, didn't we?" Noctis asked her. Neptune tilts her head in confusion until her eyes widen and pointed her finger to him shakily.

"H-Holy molies... I remember you now in my dream!" Compa became startled and confused at the same time as she does not know what they're talking about. Noctis notices this and tries to explain it to her.

"Uh, it's kinda like this. We sorta shared the same dream and we talked to each other. Somebody might have made a connection but I really don't know yet." he explained in his way. "Anyway, your name was Neptune?"

"Yep! But you can call me Neppermint or Nep-Nep if you want..." Neptune smiled.

"I'll stick with Neptune, if you don't mind."

"No problemo! So what's yours?"

"Didn't I tell you earlier?"

"Tell me what?"

"Ugh! Forget it, I'll tell you right now. My name is Noctis Lucis Caelum. Please to meet you all."

"Uh... Noti- uh, Knockti- er... Not?" Neptune began to have trouble pronouncing his name again, but she wasn't the only one though.

"Nockti Luc-... Um... Nopi... Noc-Noc... Uwahh!" Compa was having the same problem as Neptune. It was kind of true that Noctis's name is very complex and unusual to say.

"No offense there, mate, but don't you think your name is a mouthful?" Neptune puffed her cheeks.

"Y-Yeah! Good point! Tell you what, how about you just call me Noct? Is that okay with you guys?" Noctis suggested.

"Noct, huh? PFT! Funny name, but I like it!" Neptune smiled. "Nice to meet ya, Noct!"

"I'll go with Noct too." Compa agreed. "Nice to meet you, Noct."

"Likewise. So... where are we, anyway?" Neptune asked.

"We're in the central city of Planeptune." Compa answered. Noctis was confused but not as much as Neptune was.

"Planep...tune? Hmm, okay. I remember someone mentioning the world below?"

"Yes, that's absolutely correct. This is one of major landmasses beneath Celestia."

"One of the landmasses? So there are several?" Noctis asked. Although he already knows, he's playing along to avoid being suspicious.

"Why, yes. There are four major landmasses floating around. Sometimes they come close to one another and drift away. Remember?"

"Nope, not at all. Planeptune? Landmasses? Rings no bells for me." Neptune replied. Hearing this Compa looked at Neptune in fascination.

"Meybe you're suffering from amnesia. I've never seen a case in person. How original! Maybe you bumped your head..." Compa smirked.

"Isn't there a medication or something for that?"

'I doubt that...' Noctis thought.

"No, not for amnesia. It's usually a temporary thing. I'm sure you'll begin to recall things eventually." Compa explained. "My grandpa always said, 'Fancy may kill or cure!' Get some sleep, take it easy, and you'll be better in no time." She then turned to Noctis. "How about you, Noct? Do you remember anything?"

Before the prince was about to answer, he stopped and began to reflect for a moment. Due to the fact that he doesn't know where he even is since he's from another world, telling them the truth right now would drive too much curiosity and suspiciousness and the girls will possibly dig out some more information from him. He might make conflict to the world or possibly get arrested. So for now, he's going to play it safe until the time comes.

"Yes, I do have a bit of amnesia." Noctis answered.

"Well, what do you know, we're an amnesia-loss pair." Neptune teased. "I'll bet we have some special powers, despite having lost memories. Oh, maybe that's the case. We must be really, really special people."

'Well, you aren't wrong about that...' Noctis thought.

"...You know, now that you mention about getting some sleep, Compa, I feel like someone asked me and Noct to do something while we were unconscious." It took a few seconds for Neptune to remember until she finally did. "Yeah, someone was crying out for help... in my dream!"

'If she means Histoire, then that should be the case.' Noctis thought.

"In your dream? Then it's not real." Compa said.

"Oh, you never know. It was so weird. I betcha someone far away was like pa-choo and sent me a telepathic message, y'know?" Neptune spoke.

"...It's possible. Actually, many places, Planeptune included, are being threatened by more and more monsters." Compa explained. "The military powers failed to keep them from appearing. We can only defend ourselves and keep the at bay now."

"Then... there must be a boss generating all these monsters somewhere! I bet our mission is to go defeat the boss and save the world!"

'She totally forgot about Histoire, didn't she?' Noctis thought in disbelief.

"You may be right about that, but nobody has seen or heard anything like that." Compa shrugged. "This is irrational, dangerous, and absolutely impossible!"

Noctis gave out a long sigh. "Compa, just to remind you that you have two people here with amnesia." He told her. "One fell from the sky, and the other one lying on the forest all alone stranded, and don't forget that both of them have the same dream of saving the world. You say that this journey would be irrational, dangerous and impossible and you're saying that to us." Compa became stuck and tried to find an argument until Neptune piped up.

"And besides, nobody's going beat the boss if we just sit here." She said. "Someone's gotta take initiative, y'know?" That's me, and Noct as well! Plus, I can't ignore this once I've noticed it. Haven't you heard 'strike while the iron's hot'?" Compa became speechless for a couple of seconds until something was mentioned in her head.

"Now that I think about it, grandpa did have a saying like that." She spoke. "Yes, that's right. I wanted to be a nurse to save people. So why would I save the injured, but not those being threatened by monsters? How impolite of me!" Her facial impression became from serious to determination. "Nep-Nep, Noct, I'm not the strongest, but I'll help. Three is better than two!"

"Before we get into things, don't you have school, Compa?" Noctis asked. Compa did look like a person who should be in school and she may need some studying for nursing, especially with the bandaging.

"Yeah, I mean, you're not in the middle of summer vacation or anything, right?" Neptune added.

"Right, but... this city's population has been declining due to monsters eating them." Compa explained. "Students are leaving school out of fear, so it's closed down for now. Classes are suspended until further notice."

"...Fair enough." Noctis sighed.

"Yeah, that must suck!" Neptune said, though she was acting ecstatic since Compa's coming along with them. "But that means you can camp out, right? Goodie! Let's go find the dungeon where the boss is waiting!" She then turned to Noctis. "By the way, Noct, you know how to fight, right?"

"Of course, it's not like I went out unarmed." Noctis replied showing his Engine Blade, he carried with him, to the girls. A sound of a metal circle accelerating came out from the sword. Neptune's eyes sparkled when he saw it.

"Well, bust my D-Pads! Now that's what I call a super duper cool sword! Where did you get it?!"

"I got it as a present from my dad on my 16th birthday. I always had an eye for it, ever since I was young." Noctis smiled.

"Speaking of which, how old are you Noct? I'm sixteen." Compa said.

"Twenty."

Really? You're older than I'd thought you'd be." Neptune said. "Anyway, your dad must be awesome to give you a cool weapon like that."

"Yeah... he 'was'."

"Was?" Compa asked until she understood what he meant, including Neptune. Describing someone with the word 'was' means that that person is deceased. It would seem Neptune and Compa stepped on a landmine... well, Neptune particularly. "I'm sorry."

"No need, I already got over it"

"Okay, now that we got that outta the way. Let's go save the world!" Neptune exclaimed.

Noctis's Audio Entry Log I

I started my new journey in Celestia. I can't believe I got involved in this! What were you thinking, Dad?!... Was I not strong enough to win? Was it because I was unable to save Luna?... Alright, fine. If this is what you want me to do, then I'll do as much as I can to help fix the world's destruction. I'll get stronger and get rid of Ardyn and save not only Insomnia but everyone and the world. Sorry, guys, but it looks like you'll have to wait until I finish things up here. Wait for me, as you'll witness the new Noctis who will win this time!

GL: That's it for the prologue! That was surprisingly long too.

I decided to choose Noctis's Engine Blade for the story since it's his default weapon. I also made it level 1 to start things off easily without any overpowered weapons.

Yes, Regis actually visited the Hyperdimension Neptunia world before Noctis did. That lore will be explained in the future events. The audio entry log tells Noctis his opinions so far on his journey just to show his emotions and how he feels of what's around him. He got the audio log recorder and a huge case of unrecorded tapes from Histoire, by the way.

I'd like to explain more but I'm out of ideas so I'll leave the questions to you. I hope you follow me on this story because this will feature some... unique things. See you in the next chapter!
