Ban-Jie heard Neptune tell the other side to put away their weapons. She knew fully well that the soldiers won't put away their weapons unless they didn't see any threat. She looked towards Vert, who also had her weapon materialized. Now seeing the better option, Ban-Jie's weapon dematerialized into pixels.

That was when someone else appeared. From the sky, too, and blew off strong winds. Good thing she had her helmet on. It started locking onto the new figure and it was obviously a familiar figure, and she finally realized who it was as Uni pointed it out. It was Nepgear, Candidate of Planeptune. She guessed it would be somewhat like their alternate selves.

But something about her made Ban-Jie's skin crawl, as if she wanted to protect herself from something. Maybe it was because she was in her HDD form as if ready for a battle. Then again, the welcome wasn't really all that normal either. Not only her form, but her face. She didn't have the kind face their Nepgear had, but rather a more battle-hardened person. And she had [i]immense[/i] power from what Amelia could pick up. However, she could only look at Vert unsurely and not voice out her opinion. She'll have to observe further.
