Day 1 - My choice

Multiversal Space - Defenders Spaceship: Destinia Medical Bay

One day after Zero's defeat, the contruction team was ordered to enter Gamindustri and place the portal at Planeptune. Not only that, but another team was sent to repair the damage at Lowee, who was the most damaged between the four lands. Akina was resting at the ship's medical bay, in some kind of capsule. When it deteced that she was waking up, she capsule opened.


Akina: Yawn...

Midori: Oh, you're awake.

Akina: Midori-senpai...i had this weird dream.
Midori: Really now?

Akina: I entered in a world where i met anthropomorphic versions of video game consoles, and together, we went through some really hard stuff...

Midori: I see...BECAUSE THAT REALLY HAPPENED, WAKE UP ALREADY!!!

Akina: RAUHHHAHHH!

Music: Returning Memory

Akina fell from the bed after Midori's scream, she was still a little drowsy and couldn't tell what happened to her was real.


Akina: Mmmmm...
???: My my, Akina-chan is always a clown...

Akina: Ah! That voice...

Then, a girl confined to a wheel chair entered the room.


Melissa Mamori: Long time to see. ((Yay! She's back ^_^ ))

Akina: Melly!!!

Lerafa: She insisted on seeing you after knowing you were going to stay here.

Akina: Oh...Wait, i guess everything is becoming clear now.

Midori: Really now?

Akina: Yeah...Also, i don't remember in being in my old uniform.

Midori: You other clothes were so torn up, it was the easiest solution than to patch them up.

Akina: You wouldn't make a good housewife Senpai. You can't sew a dress...

Midori: WHAT WAS THAT?

Melissa: Hahahahaha!

Lerafa: Anyway, let's get down to business... Aparently, after Zero controlled you, his powers got so etched into your soul, it managed to replicate them.

Akina: Does that mean...

Lerafa: Don't worry, you won't turn out like him, in fact, those powers actually were modified for your use.

Akina: I see...So it's like, his, but, being a part of me instead of being just an extra energy.

Lerafa: Which is also one of the reasons you can't fuel my brother with that power.

Akina: ...

Lerafa: Don't feel sorry for that.

Akina: Right...So, How's everyone?

Lerafa: Well, we helped to give repairs to the Cali Verse before they left. And, Ellis Claude sent you this.

He gave her a box, it contained two Haros. One Blue and another a green one.


Lerafa: One is for you and another is for Neptune, she seemed to like these things.

Melissa: They look so cute.

Lerafa: Anyway, Kouji and Tetsuya misteriously dissapeared.

Akina: Wow, really?

Lerafa: Yes, Amuro speculated it was probably the same thing that made them come to this Multiverse.

Akina: So, they really are from another Multiverse...

Midori: Yes, there's no such group called ZEUTH in this one. Traveling through worlds is one thing, but diferent Multiverses is an impossibility. While certain worlds do have alternate universes and timelines you can visit, there a certain exceptions.

Akina: I understand...So, how's the rest of ZEUTH doing?

Lerafa: Amuro and Cha-I mean...

Lerafa: Captain Quatto are in this ship, Shinn is flying around in his Mobile Suit, Kira and Kamille are helping with Leanbox's repairs, Lune is passing her time at Leanbox and Setsuko is at Planeptune.

Midori: So, now that you're all recovered, i guess it's time for you to resume your mission at Multilopolis.

Akina: ...

Music: Bonds of Sea & Fire


Midori: Oh? I thought you would be more excited for this.

Akina: I am...but...i kinda want to come back while bringing Neptune, Noire and Blanc...i mean, we're all going there...

Midori: I see...well, i guess i did good in sending Genbu.

Akina: Rina-chan? That's nice! I guess i can add that to my list of things i'm looking foward to see when i come back. (But wait, if you sent her on a dangerous mission...this means she learned to fly right?) ((Nope!))

Lerafa: Anyway, i'll be at my room, you girls stay here and talk some more.

Midori: Hmph...

Akina: It's amazing you weren't bickering with him.

Midori: I've been holding back...but i still hate him!

Akina: Rivalry Pressure!

Midori: Oh, don't you start with that.

Melissa: Nah! It's because of me.

Midori: M-Miss Melissa...it's not that...

Akina: (Whoa, she's all flustered...Is it because she's the Grandaughter of Magnus Mamori?)

Melissa: Anyway, you got another gift.

Melissa pulled a bag, it was a new dress.


Akina: Wow! Who sent it to me?

Melissa: I don't know. Why don't you test it out?

Akina: Okay.

Akina starts to change clothes. During it, she noticed she still had a scar on her chest. She was told that the healing capsule couldn't remove it. Akina was fine with it. Then, she put the dress on. Melissa helped her out with her hair.


Akina: It shows my legs a bit more.

Melissa: Yeah, i noticed that...You liked it right?

Akina: Yep! It's neat.

Melissa: That's nice, i think the person who sent you would like to hear that.

Akina: So, i'm planning to visit Gamindustri after this. I want to show everyone that i'm fine.

Midori: Well, you're fully recovered, so i'm not stopping you.

Akina: Say Melissa, where's Amuro and Char again?

Melissa: At the Ship's Cafeteria, why?

Akina: Well, can you guide me? This is my first time in this ship.

Melissa: Gladly, just follow me.


After a while, both girls reached the resting room, Amuro and Quattro were there, drinking.


Akina: Ah! No fair!

Quattro: Based on your reaction, you're underage.

Akina: Yes, why do you think i got this baby face?

Amuro: Miss Seiryuu looks like your age.

Akina: Oh, that's because she genetically modified.

Quattro: Like Cyber-Newtypes?

Akina: Yeah, something like that. But with no negative consequences. She was one of the many choosen for a project, but that's a story for another time.

Amuro: Should've expected that. You're so technologically advanced.

Akina: Oh, speaking of which...

Akina summons her beam saber, and shows it to everyone.


Akina: I must thank you once more for helping me out with this.

Amuro: We did this together, there was no way i could've adapted this by myself.

Amuro: Anyway Akina, maybe when you get older, you'll be able to drink together with your friends.

Akina: The only one who drinks between the people i know is Suzaku senpai...

Quattro: ...

Akina: S-Sorry, i didn't mean to get so gloomy like this! Stupid Akina! Stupid!

Amuro: It's okay.

Akina: **Yawn** Wow...i got sleepy already?

Melissa: Maybe because you're not that fully recovered yet. (Midori was wrong, but maybe she really wanted Akina to at least talk with these two before going to sleep.)

Akina: Really? Bummer...i wanted to visit Gamindustri today...

Melissa: You'll do that tomorrow, right?

Akina: Yes...Good Night you all. Oh, and one more think, i'm not drinking when i get older, i was just joking.

Both girls leave the place.


Quattro: She went through so many harships, yet she can still smile like that. I'm impressed.

Amuro: But still...there's something really sad about that smile...

Quattro: ...

Day 2 - Our whereabouts

Defenders SpaceShip - Destinia: Warp Room


Akina: Wow, you guys could fit a warp room in here?

Fall: Of course, who knows when the enemy is idiot enough to NOT use a Teleport Ward to avoid us getting right where their leader is.

Lerafa: Of course, to not use much of the Ship's Dimensional Engine, it can't go that far, but the enough to run away.

Akina: I see.

Melissa: So, where to?

Akina: Hmm...I guess i want to meet Shinn first. He looks like someone that needs company.

Amuro: That's odd, i thought he would be with Setsuko or Kamille, they are close friends after all.

Lerafa: Kamille is helping with the city repairs, so i guess maybe that's why he's not with him.

Quattro: Maybe Akina will find out.

Akina: Alright, to where Shinn is then!

Melissa: Okay, turning on Teleporter, Destination - Lastation Territory.

Lastation Territory

Akina was freefalling from the sky once more, which is kinda convinient in that situation, she would be able to spot his Gundam with ease, which she did seconds later, she flew at its direction.


Akina: Shinn! Where are you?

Shinn: Akina?

Music: Ignited (Piano)

Shinn was resting at the cockpit of his MS, being woken up by Akina's loud voice, he got up and yawned for a second.


Akina: Hey, Good Morning.

Shinn: Morning...

Shinn: I'm glad to see that you're okay. Not only me, everyone else were worried about you.

Akina: I see...i keep doing that to people...but no more. I promise that i won't worry you guys anymore. I mean it!

They both jumped to the ground, where they sat on the grass and looked up at the sky, since it was early, the sun wasn't on their faces yet.


Akina: Say Shinn...what are you doing here in the middle of nowhere?

Shinn: Hm...That's a good question...

Akina: You don't know?

Shinn: Kira and Kamille are helping out in the repairs, Vergil is a loner by nature, i can't handle Lune.

Akina: What? Why?

Shinn: Two words, Arm Wrestle.

Akina: Ouch...

Shinn: And i think Setsuko is in good company with Miss Neptune.

Akina: Oh, so you can't really decide what to do, so you're stuck here.

Shinn: That's...a good way to put it...i think.

Akina: Hehe! Of course it is.

Shinn: Okay, my turn.

Akina: So, we're taking turns asking questions? Alright then.

Shinn: How much do you know about me? I mean, you seem to know a lot about the Mobile Suits and all.

Akina: Hmm....In reality, nothing.

Shinn: Wait, really?

Akina: I know what happens to you in your world, but i really know nothing about you. Things like your backstory, the things you like, your personality, i don't know. Only your feats. As if i read a history book or something.

Shinn: ...

Akina: Surprising right?

Shinn: Yeah, i have no words. Anyway, it's your turn now.

Akina: So, will you tell me about yourself? I mean, if its okay.

Shinn: Alright then...My parents died, victims of the war.

Akina: Oh...

Shinn: This cellphone was from my younger sister. If she didn't drop this when my family was evacuating, i wouldn't be here.

Shinn handed over a pink cell phone to Akina. She noticed that the batteries were full, and decided to check out for photos, with permission from Shinn of course.


Akina: I never met my parents.

Shinn: No?

Akina: Well, you can say that the crew of the World Travelers and the Defenders of Light is pratically my familly.

She hands the cellphone back to Shinn


Akina: Your sister is pretty cute, what's her name.

Shinn: Mayu Asuka.

Akina: You won't be able to see her anymore right?

Shinn: ...

Akina: I can't imagine myself without Suzaku senpai either...even though i haven't lost anything yet...the fear is still there...heck...I was pretty afraid of leaving you guys...

Akina: A-Anyway, Let's stop this gloomy talk. I guess it doesn't really matter if we all have tragic backstories and stuff. It is the present that matters.

Shinn: You're right.

**Music Stops**

Akina sobbed for some seconds before pulling herself together.


Akina: So...you're planning to go somewhere?

Shinn: Hmmm...Nothing in mind actually...I already explored this place a lot.

Akina: I see...

Shinn: And fought a dragon...

Akina: Eh?

Shinn: And then Noire came and scolded me for travelling in such a dangerous place.

Akina: She came here?

Shinn: She hunt monsters a lot in here.

Music: THE GREAT

Suddenly, they hear a roar.


Akina: Asuka-kun...

Shinn: Don't call me that...

Akina: You're irresponsable you know that...
Shinn: Ok, i admit.

Akina: If you understand then look at that rhino-like monster right there!

Shinn: Gah!

Music: DAMON

The monster charged at the two, Akina stood in the way and blocked the monster's attack.


Akina: Quick, to your Mobile Suit!

Shinn: R-Right!

The monster kept pushin on.


Akina: Heh, a little persitent aren't you?

Akina violently kicked the monster away, then, she started jumping holding her right feet.


Akina: Ow ow ow, Akina you're not a Cyborg Ninja...

Shinn: Alright, i'm all set!

Shinn activates the Destiny and pulls out the Arondight Sword.


Shinn: I'll cut you into pieces!

The Destiny charges at the monster and slashes it, then back off before it can retaliate, then slashes once more, then, he flies full speed ahead and impales the monster.


Akina: Wow! Nice one Shinn! You rock!

Music: Serene Town

Some time later, they were looking at the monster's corpse.


Shinn: So...what do we do now?

Akina: We'll cook it!

Shinn: Eh?

Akina: We can't just waste this thing here.

Shinn: That's not what i meant...

Akina: Don't worry, we'll bring this to Noire. You said a while ago that she hunts for these things right?

Shinn: Well...

Akina: You'll carry the thing, while i get some wood for the fire. It will be a giant fireplace!

Akina flies away, in search for large pieces of wood.


Shinn: Man, i can't keep up with her...She was more tolerable back then...but she reached Neptune levels of tiring...But i'm okay with that.

Some time later, at Noire's Mansion, she was baffled by the scene in front of her.


Noire: Wa-wa-wa...

Shinn: Sorry, i wasn't able to say no, mostly because she didn't let me.

Akina: Don't worry, i made sure to cut the less trees as possible, some of the wood is dry. This will be one huge fireplace!!!

Noire: (Well, i guess i should be glad that she's okay...) Whatever...do what you want...

Then, night came, some citizens were invited to eat the huge beast. It was indeed a party.


Shinn: The meat is a little tough...but actually pretty good!

Akina: So Noire, do you often eat those things?

Black Heart: I collect materials from them...this is what Monster Hunting is about.

Akina: Eh? So you don't eat them?

Black Heart: Of course you don't! I eat normal food you know.

Akina: So, you never asked yourself one day *in a growling voice* "Oh my, this giant creature looks suculent, i wonder how does it taste!"

Akina starts coughing from forcing herself to a growling voice.


Black Heart: You sound like an old woman when you say it...

Shinn: So...Why are you transformed again?

Black Heart: A CPU must be in a presentable form to its worshipers.

Akina: (AHA!) So, a few people know you're a twin-tailed ts-

Black Heart: Complete that sentence and i'll chop you in half!

Akina: So anyway Noire, can we sleep here today?

Black Heart: What?

Akina: Thanks!

Black Heart: But i didn't even...

Akina: I'm going to use your shower! All that carrying and cooking made me so sweaty.

Black Heart: Gah...

Shinn: See what i mean?

Black Heart: Sigh...Guess i should deal with it...

**Music Stops**

Some time later, Noire was about to go to bed, when she heard knocks on her door.


Noire: (It's probably some extra work...)

When she opened the door, it was Akina.


Akina: Hi Noire! Can i-

Noire closes the door before she makes the mistake to ATTEMPT to talk.


Noire: No! I already gave you a room.

Akina: But...It's just for today. You know i'll be away by tomorrow to visit the other places.

Noire: ...

Akina: Ok...guess i'll go sleep, alone...all by myself...like a Lonely Heart.

Noire: *triggered* (She didn't just say that...)

Akina: Guess if it keeps this way, i'll be a grumpy person just like Noire. Lonely like a wolf.

Noire: (Please, say no more...)

Akina: Ah Suzaku senpai, how can the Multiverse being cruel to the likes of me.

Noire: SHUT UP! JUST ENTER ALREADY!

Akina: YOU'RE THE BES-*is punched in the stomach*

Noire: But no glomps!

Some seconds later, they were on the bed, Noire looking away with a frustrated and blushing face at the same time.

Music: Me and You


Noire: (Damn my soft spot...)

Akina: This is so comfy...

Noire: Do you often slept like this?

Akina: Not really, i did sleep with Suzaku senpai during my trainning.

Noire: You keep talking about her...She really is important right?

Akina: Yep. I can show you a photo if you want.

Noire: (Do i have a choice?)

Akina summons a photo of herself and suzaku at Okimara, Noire stared wide-eye at Suzaku's appearence.


Noire: (She...She looks like me...)

Akina: Surprised huh?

Noire: Y-yes...Is...Is this why it looks like you're so attached to me? I mean...we look alike...

Akina: Ah, don't worry about that, you're not a replacement. I just really want you to be not that stern all the time. Relax a little more ok?

Noire: ...

Akina: Well, there's one thing in common with you two besides the looks.

Noire: What is it?

Akina: Both of your siblings went missing...

Noire: !!!

Akina: Senpai was affected by this...until she left the organization to look for him...is kinda complicated, since there's a dangerous demon sealed in her brother and his memories were used for said seal.

Noire: I see...so even if they meet again, he won't remember her?

Akina: ...Yes...it is very possible that it will happen...

Noire: Akina...i'm...

Akina: No need to say you're sorry. Besides, i'm glad i shared this with you!

Noire: I see...thank you. I understand you more now.

Akina: That's...**yawn** very nice...

It doesn't take long for Akina to finally fell asleep. Noire, who was expecting to be relieved after that, was left thinking about Suzaku.


Noire: (So...Akina doesn't want any of her friends to turn like her mentor figure huh? This is why she always want to make us happy.)

Noire: (She's a fool...like always.)

Day 3 - The Regrowing City

Music: Public Peace and Soft Sunlight

It was another day, Akina, Noire and Shinn were reunited at the entrance of the house. The huge fireplace been already been removed and Noire some of the monster's remains.


Shinn: Alright Akina, the Destiny is all ready to fly now.

Noire: So, you're going out now.

Akina: Yes. I want to explore this world a little more.

Noire: Then...

Noire extends her hand to Akina. Akina was a little puzzled with the gesture.


Noire: I don't have all day.

Akina: Ah!

Then, they shake hands.


Noire: Have a nice trip.

Akina: I will.

Akina then, jumps at the Gundam's shoulder.


Shinn: Shinn Asuka, Destiny, taking off.

Akina: I'll be seeing you Noire!

The Gundam flies off. Akina keeps waving at Noire until she loses sight of her.


Akina: Till we meet again.

Leanbox Territory

Some time later, they had arrived at Leanbox's territory. Since Akina teleported together with the Cali Verse last time, she didn't had the time to sightsee.


Shinn: We're getting closer to the city, so sit tight.

Akina: Ayup!

As they arrived at the captial, Akina could see many people and workers restoring the buildings of the city.


Shinn: Hey, I'm detecting Zeta Gundam approaching.

Akina: I know, i can see it from here.

A few seconds later, they met with Kamille.


Kamille: Hey Shinn. I didn't think you would show up around these parts.

Shinn: Me neither but...

Akina: Hi Kamille!!!

Kamille: Is that...Akina?

Shinn: Yep.

Kamille: It seems she's doing fine.

Shinn: Were you going somewhere?

Kamille: Oh yeah, Kira and I were going to park our Mobile Suits at the hangar, then head to the hotel for lunch.

After a while, they were at the hotel's restaurant, Akina was a little confused on why they were not at Vert's house instead.


Akina: I mean...I never really got a chance to talk to her. ((And never will, HAHAHAHAHAHA))

Kamille: Actually, Miss Blanc is paying the hotel for us.

Shinn: Why?

Kamille: Something about "Staying at that woman's house is not a good idea." or something...She was so insistent about it.

Akina: Oh... (Something tells me she's too not fond of that girl.)

Kira: I guess it's better if we not ask.

Akina: Yeah yeah, Touchy subjects and all! Hahaha!

Shinn: So, how the repairs are going?

Kira: We might be done at the end of the week.

Shinn: That fast?

Kamille: The technology of this place is sure helping a lot actually. Plus, they got us, the best mechanics around.

Akina: Bragging much?

Shinn: So Akina, do you have something you're good with?

Akina: Hm?

Shinn: You know, something you can do besides fighting.

Akina: Oh...Well...

Music: RAIN&TEAR

Akina played with the fork a little bit, thinking about what she could do besides being a Dimensional Warrior. She looked back at Kamille, then saw something strange. It was something transparent behind him. It took her attention so much, it seemed that every sound around her was muted. Then, all of a sudden, and against her will, her death powers activated. She could see many spirits smiling at Kamille while having the memories of their death overloading her mind. She tried to scream, but she was paralyzed with all she was seeing.

???: Akina? Akina!!!

Akina: !!!

Then, she woke up to reality.


Kira: Akina!

Kamille: Hey, are you alright?

Shinn: Your eyes looked they would pop out of your head. You're also sweating bullets.

Akina: I...

She still could feel her power activated and the presence of the spirits arounds. She was wondering why she couldn't turn the powers off as easily as she could before.


Akina: (Is that it? Am i finally succumbing to this power?)
Kamille: (Hey Akina, snap out of it.)

Akina: (Wait, did Kamille just spoke into my mind?)

Akina: (No, i don't have time to think on it...I have to do what he says...) Hurgh...

After a hard effort, she manages to cancel her powers. She breathes heavily for a while, then speaks.


Akina: It's okay guys, i'm fine.

Kira: Are you sure you're okay?

Akina: The Doctor said i'm 100% fine...don't worry...it's nothing i can't handle.

Kamille: I don't know...

Akina: I'll make sure it won't happen again.

They stood silent after a while, Akina keeping a forced smiling in order to make them stop worrying about her that much. Shinn then, decides to break the silence.


Shinn: Well, i didn't think of anything normal to do after my family died.

Kamille: I guess you told us that before.

Shinn: Not to her though.

Kira: Akina might had an idea though.

Akina: No i don't...I know about your exploits, but not most of your personal life experiences.

Kamille: Really?

Shinn: It's true. She didn't knew about my sister.

Kamille: I see.

Akina: Anyway...To answer your question...Most of my hobbies aren't really normal, it's mostly related to my job. I do have knowledge of the mechanics of the DiM Weapons. Plus, when i'm not on duty, i like to have fun like i'm doing right now.

After finishing their food, they decide to take a stroll around the city.


Akina: Everyone are sure hard working.

Kira: Well, they are pretty dedicated to the CPU of Leanbox after all. In fact, it's their dedication and worship to her that gives her those powers.

Akina: The share energy right? The thing that the four CPUs fight for to maintain their countries. But despite all of that, they are still on good terms on each other and would team up to fight any threat.

Some time later, they got back to the Hangar as Kira and Kamille had to get back to work, so they said goodbye to Akina and Shinn. The Destiny took off afterwards and left the city.


Akina: I'm feeling sleepy already...

Shinn: Me too.

Akina: Can you put this thing to auto-pilot?

Shinn: Yes. I just need to set the coordinates and we'll be there as we wake up.

Akina: Nice. Then i'm going ahead. As in sleeping. I'm just gonna chill here.

Shinn: Ah, right. Good evening then.

Akina watched the stars for a while, thinking about what happened during lunch. She started to question wheter she really knew how to control her death powers.


Akina: If i could really do that...then i wouldn't be afraid of it consuming my sense of self...but...i'm just so afraid...why do i even call myself a Shinigami?

She tried to force a smile once more, but couldn't manage to. Akina was at her limit to try and hide what she really felt and started to cry.

Marisa: Yeah, you can say that.

Fael: Perfect timing you three.

Hibiki: There's something we need to tell you.

Fael: During that day, when i couldn't visit your place, there was a Noise Outbreak and i had to help out on it.

Hibiki: A lot of stuff happened. But we witnessed something horrible.

Marisa: Peach appeared at the Grasslands and we saw her killing a lot of people who were hanging out there...It was so shocking...

Fael: ...We thought that you would be so heartbroken, i mean, she's your sister and all...we decided to keep this a secret...but...

Fael: I just can't bear to hide this from you. That event was too terrifing for everyone who saw it.

Hibiki: We couldn't do much...she's was too far away...

Marisa: Even if we could...I doubt we would be able to win that easily...and we wouldn't be here telling you this story.

Fael: So yeah, that pretty it. As a man who also have a sister, i would also be sad that she would turn out into something...bad.
(((EPIC FORESHADOWING)))

Day 4 - Typical Cold Day


Akina: Mmmm...It seems i cried myself to sleep...huh?

Akina opens her eyes, but couldn't see anything, as it was all white.


Akina: Okay...did i end up the dream world again?

Music: Farm Winter

Then, she gets up, and it turns out, she was just slightly buried under the snow of the Lowee territory.


Akina: Well...It seems i forgot to "glue" my hair on the Gundam to make me avoid falling from it...

She sighs, then starts walking foward. She had sensed Vergil nearby and decided to pay him a visit. When she got there, him and IF where in a battle position. She wondered if they were just starting a fight or had been in one in a while. One quick look at IF answered her question.


IF: ...

IF: Oh, hi Akina!

Vergil: ...

Akina: Hi guys...

IF: What's wrong? You don't look all that cherry as before.

Akina: I've got a lot in my mind...

Vergil: Hmph...

Vergil sheathes his blade and prepares to walk away.


Akina: Hey V! Don't just suddenly leave.

Vergil: Don't talk as if we're acquainted. And no nicknames! Besides, i don't want to engage in counseling sections.

Akina: Too bad! You'll don't get to see my measurements!

Vergil: ...

Then, he walks away.


Akina: He really doesn't like humans huh?

IF: At least he's not killing us.

Akina: True that. But then again, it wouldn't be Vergil if he was nice.

Akina: So, would you like to chat while we fly to Lowee? I don't want to worry Shinn that much, he's probably already there at this point.

IF: Sure! Why not?

Akina takes IF and flies away at high speeds. She doesn't know how much ahead of her Shinn was, so she had to fly fast and hope to reach him before he arrives at the capital.


IF: So what happened exactly?

Akina: I was just thinking about my powers...

Music: Hoax

There's been a bit of silence. IF could notice that Akina was about to cry.


Akina: I might be losing myself way faster than i thought...the fact that i can't smile properly is the proof of that...

IF: Oh...So "that" merciless Akina might comeback right?

Akina: Yes...But this time...not only she's more active in taking over me...but i think she might actually be sucesful. Guess my time being controlled by Zero didn't do all that good for me.

IF: Oh...Why do you even have such a power in first place?

Akina: I really didn't had much of a choice...When i woke up to my Dimensional Traveler powers...they kinda came in as well...At first, i thought it was awesome...but seeing how much i hated the sensation of feeling the presence of dead people, plus, the side effects of using this power...I just... And she kinda showed up again way before i got to this world...But it was kinda easy to subdue her...but it was pretty much at that point that i started not to use my Death Powers that often and not as offensive...

IF: I can imagine...

Akina: Man...Now i know i can't really hide my distress from other people...But i'm relieved i got to share this with someone.

IF: Always here to save your ass.

Akina: Yeah...Ever since i got here, you all have been taking care of me....Thanks...

IF: I can't really help it...you're just so hopeless alone it's hard not to help out.

Akina: Now that's just harsh!

Despite seeing that Akina was having fun, IF could see she was struggling to smile. It looked so pained, as if something was hurting her from inside.


IF: (However, i'm afraid i can't do much to help you in this kind of situation...) Maybe you'll lighten up once you get to Lowee.

They arrived at the capital, Akina slowed down once she saw the Destiny Gundam, then landed on its shoulder. She wondered if Shinn was sleeping or not, and decided to fly in front of the Main Camera (Ie: The head). She waves her hand.


Shinn: Oh...Morning Akina.

Akina: Hi Shinn! Was it too cold inside there?

Shinn: Nah! Since this is a unit build to fight in space, temperature is not the issue inside the cockpit. Are we at the capital already?

Akina: Yep! Now we just need to find where Lune parked her Valsione.

Shinn: Yeah, unlike at Leanbox, where Kamille escorted us, we might have to search a little.

Akina: Why don't we go to Blanc's home like we did at Lastation? She might tell us where to put the Destiny.

Shinn: That might work. I think i know where it is.

Music: Haitokusanka

As Shinn assumed control of the Destiny Gundam, they went at Blanc's house. Akina dropped IF a bit far away from there, as she didn't want Shinn asking her how IF was at the Gundam's shoulder. Moments later, they had arrived there.


Shinn: This cold is not as bad as i first thought.

Akina: Yeah, it's kinda of cozy when you're well dressed.

Shinn: It's kinda similar to living in the mountains right?

Akina: I guess. Anyway, i'm going to knock the door.

She does so. The one who answers it was Lune.


Lune: Hey! Morning guys! Wasn't expecting any visits this early.

Akina: Hi Lune! Is Miss Bla-Oh Wait, i guess you can answer our question.

Lune: What question?

Shinn: Is there any hangar where i can put my Gundam?

Lune: Ah yes, there it is. I'll take you there.

Shinn: Thanks. Will you come with us Akina?

Akina: Nah, i'll wait for you guys here.

The Destiny left off to the hangar, Akina started to explore Blanc's home.


Akina: This house is just as fancy as Noire's.

She gets to the upper floor.


Akina: I wonder if her room is around here somewhere...

Opening the first door she sees it was Blanc sisters room instead. Luckly, they were asleep.


Akina: (I better not disturb them right now...but still, i kinda wanted to know them better.) ((But you'll never will, HAHAHAHAHA))

Akina: Now, where it could be?

She notices a semi-open door right ahead.


Akina: Maybe she's there.

As she enters the room, it turns out to be a huge storage room. She navigates through the place in awe. She wondered what was inside the many crates the place had.


Akina: (What she possibily keeps he-)

She steps on something and nearly slips, hitting her head on a shelf.


Akina: Owch....What just happened?

Looking behind her, she notices a small book. When she's about to peek it up.


Blanc: Hey!

Akina: Yikes!

Blanc: Oh, it's just you. I thought i heard something.

Akina: Err...Hi Miss Blanc.

Blanc: ...

Akina: What is it?

Blanc: You didn't see what's written in there right?

Akina: N-No...

Blanc: You sure? You're sweating a lot.

Akina: That's for a diferent reason actually...plus, i slipped on this book, i didn't had time to look at it before you jumpscared me.

Blanc: ...

Blanc picks the book up and then looks at it.


Blanc: Hmmm...Weird...i thought i had this inside a box.

Akina: Um...

Blanc: No questions.

Akina: Okay...

Blanc: Anyway, i believe you came here to visit me right?

Akina: Yes...

Moments later, at Blanc's room.

Music: Distant Day's Promise


Blanc: Now that i look at you better, it does seems like you saw better days. Did you run from the hospital or something?

Akina: No...I'm fine to go out now. Besides, you think i would be able to escape from Lerry?

Blanc: You got a point.

Akina: So, how's stuff going on here?

Blanc: Besides that woman living here, nothing much. At least she's keeping my sisters busy. She's incredibly durable. And thanks to that, i don't get very exausted. The true problem is...when i gone to meet Yukari, who's going to take care of them?

Akina: Oh...

Blanc: Well, i was absent "for a while" once, so i guess i'll just have to trust them.

Akina: You're just so dependable, so i guess maybe they do too. ((Okay, but enought talking about them))

Blanc: So, since it's written all over you face there's something cleary wrong, i believe you know what i'll ask next.

Akina: Guess i'm that easy to read huh? But i don't think you'll be able to do much about it...It's about my powers.

Blanc: You're right. I still don't know about how your Dimensional Travelers Powers works. But tell me anyway.

Akina: Alright then...But first...

She opens the door, IF and Shinn falls over to the ground.


Blanc: Eavesdropping huh?

IF: Ah...err...

Shinn: We can explain.

Akina: No use in running away Lune, i knew you are there too.

Lune: Alright, you got me.

Akina: Well...I was going to tell you guys eventually...Iffy already knows the story though.

Shinn: She does?

IF: Yeah.

Akina reveals that she might succumb to her Death Powers sooner than she thought, as its influence is eating away her personality and emotions.


Blanc: Such irony...You wanted so much to be able to fight again...

Akina: You're half-right...Before i recovered my powers...my emotionless persona showed up...But what diference it makes?

Shinn: So...that thing that happened yesterday...

Akina: My powers were activated without my consent...

Lune: Man...that's rough...

Shinn: Isn't there really anything we can do?

Akina: No...It all depends on me...but...seeing that my powers might activate against my will...i'm afraid the Akina you guys know will be no more...It's inevitable...Even if i try to fight against it...i'll be just delaying the inevitable...it's not that i'm giving up...i know there's no escape. I'll be lucky if i arrive at Multilopolis while still being me...

IF: Akina...

Akina: Sorry if this went gloomy fast.

Lune: Don't worry. At least you told us your problems...

Blanc: So...what can we expect of the new Akina?

Akina: Just a merciless killer...she's not as nice as i am...She doesn't have compassion...ending anything that might oppose her.

Lune: That bad huh?

Shinn: ...

Akina: No need to feel bad Shinn...

Shinn: I can't help it...We fought so hard...and then we're going to lose you for real...

He just simply leaves the room. He couldn't swallow the fact that Akina was accepting her "death" so easily like that, specially in a situation where he can't do anything to help her out.


IF: Shinn...

Lune: Just leave him be...

Akina: ...This is ridiculous... Now i want to cry even more than before...but for some reason i can't...

At the corridor, Vergil was listening to everything. Akina knew he was there, but she wasn't on the mood to call him.


Vergil: (A girl cursed to be the True Goddess of Death until the end huh?)

Time stopped for everyone except Magio, Lilly, Necrox and Anna. Rosenkreuz suddenly appeared and talked with them.


Magio: Master!
Rosenkreuz: Hello, my apreentice, his friends and family.

Anna: If you came here, it must have a reason, right?
Rosenkreuz: Correct. But before I begin...

A bubble of water appeared above Necrox and Lilly. Rosenkreuz popped it and water fell into them, waking both up.


Lilly: Gah!!

Necrox: What the hell? Water?!
Rosenkreuz: Now I can begin speaking, I suppose.
Lilly: Rosenkreuz?!

Necrox: Now's not the time to be suprised. Let's just listen.

Rosenkreuz called an image. It was a shining flower.

Rosenkreuz: This is the Spring Dream. We call it The Dream of the Eden Hidden from Humans.

Anna: It is beautiful.

Necrox: But if you called it hidden, then it must mean...
Rosenkreuz: ... Do not look simply with your eyes. For you to find the Dream, you must have alternative ways of searching it.

After hearing that, Magio reminded himself of Yuyuko's words.


Magio: What could she have possibly meant by that?

Necrox: She? Who?
Magio: Before I got back the school, I was taken to Hakugyokurou and I met Yuyuko there. She just threw me those words...




Anna: So Miss Yuyuko took you out of nowhere and just said those words?
Rosenkreuz: Take her words in mind and heart. It might lead you to your objective.

Lilly: "What we see is real and everything else that can't be seen is a fantasy. Even us, who have powers, consider the world like that."

Necrox: I don't get it. Can't Yuyuko be more direct with the hint instead of being the cloaked girl she is?

Lilly: I think I'm starting to get the points but... it's still too clouded and it's only an assumption.

BGM: Battle of Ordeal (Plays for all scenes.)

Realm of Paradox

As they walked on the corridor, they heard a big explosion that made the entire castle shake.


Lilly: What the hell is going on?! An invasion?!

Necrox: Look!

Once the smoke cleared a little, they saw Magio coming at them.


Magio: Hurry up, let's go!

Lilly: Where?!
Magio: I don't know, but I'm not staying in this prison anymore!

Necrox: Is this some sort of rebellion?

Magio: It's my rebellion! If you two aren't coming, I'll go alone!

Lilly: We're going too!

Necrox: Hell yeah! Sayonara, Realm of Paradox!

The three flew away. As they started to fly, chains started to pursue them quickly. It was the signal that Peach knew about their rebellion against her. The soldiers too went quickly after them.

Realm of Paradox: Throne Room


Peach: Why? Why would he do something like that?!

Gloria: Lady Peach!

Gloria and Assiette quickly appeared at the throne room. Peach was biting her nails strongly, almost taking part of her finger with it.


Peach: Intercept them at the gate! Don't let they run away!

Gloria and Assiette quickly nodded and disappeared from the room.


Peach: You three...

Grasslands

As they kept searching for whatever Peach wanted, Cookie received a call from his receiver.


Cookie: Cookie here.
Soldier: Sir Cookie, we have a major problem! The Triplets are rebelling and escaping from the Realm!

Cookie: What?! Is that true?!

Jin: Something bad is happening...
Soldier: Please, send reinforcements! We won't be able to capture them!

Cookie: Alright, I'll send someone there quickly.

Cookie turned off the call. He secretly gave a sigh of relief and turned back to the others with a worried face.


Cookie: The Triplets are rebelling against us.
Dio: WHAT?! The Triplets?!

Cookie: They're heading to the main gate of the Realm. Let's hurry and try to-

Azrel: We're going.

Jin: What?!

Aria: We cannot waste you three on the Triplets. Do not worry as we will not fail at any cost.

Anna: ...

Cookie: ... Alright then. We're counting on you three.

The Ametrine Triplets started to fly back to the Realm's main gate in order to help with the interception. However, Cookie knew something was running into Azrel's mind, for him to suggets they would go.


Cookie: (Finally... a time where they are free.)

Chapter 2 - Part 6

Spring Zone Streets


Kael: Your mother really is an amazing person.

Fael: That she is...

Uni: She's very beautiful too.

Fael: Heh, you should've seen her on her young days.

Amano: Eh?

Fael: She was regarded as the most beautiful lady of this city. You guys will know why when i show you the photo.

Kael: I-I see... (He looks strangely proud for some reason...)

Fael: Alright, what's next? Winter District?

Uni: Yep!

Suddenly, they heard a voice in their heads.

???: Somebody...

Amano: Guys...did you hear that?
???: Can someone hear me?

Fael: It's faint, but i can hear it.

Kael: I'll try to detect the source.

Kael concentrated a little, then he discovered where the voice was coming from.


Kael: It's a little far away, let's hurry.

A little while later.


Kael: Over there, at those trees.

They entered the place and walked a little further.


Uni: This was telephaty right?

Kael: Yes.

Fael: This felt more like magic than psychic power...

Kael: You nailed it. It's possible to comunicate through the use of magic, your world just didn't discover it yet.

Fael: I see...

Amano: Hm? I see something on the ground over there.

As they approached, they noticed that what was on the ground was an injured animal.


Amano: Aww...

Uni: What do you think it happened to him?

Kael: Don't tell me... Hey, you, was it you that was calling out for someone?
???: (Yes...)

Kael: (It's still faint, i can barely feel his energy...)
???2: Huh?

Fael: Hm?

A little girl just approached the group.


Kael: (Was she able to listen to the voice as well?)

Fael: (That face looks familiar.)

Uni: Um...Hi.
???2: H-Hello...

Amano: What someone like you doing here?
???2: W-Well...

Kael: I was taking a shortcut to get home faster, but then i found this guy laying on the ground injured, so i decided to take it to a vet, right?
???2: Eh?

Kael: We need an excuse to the vet right? Don't worry, i know why you're here.
???2: For real?

Kael: You heard a voice right?
???2: Y-Yes...I did.

Kael: I'm Kael, yours?

Nanoha: I'm Nanoha Takamachi. ((And this is probably the only image you'll ever get of her in this RP))

Fael: Ah, Takamachi!
Nanoha: Yes. You know about my family right?

Fael: They run a restaurant, yeah.

Amano: Wait, just that?

Fael: Yes. (The family head was involved in some stuff that nearly got him killed, which is the reason why they now live a more peaceful life.) I'm mostly friends with your older brother. Though, we don't talk that much anymore.
Nanoha: Would be nice if you met again right?

Fael: Maybe...

Kael: But first, this little guy here needs Medical attention ASAP.

Amano: You're right, let's hurry.
