A/N: Well, appears I'll have to make this clear so here it goes. MEGADIMENSION IS NOT HAPPENING IN THIS STORY! Seriously, this story was made in the beginning of June last year (or so forth after this is done…hopefully.) That was a few months AFTER the Japanese release and I didn't know about it at the time. This story is intended to tie in Victory, MK II and the first one and only those three. Hell, I've never seen Megadimension so I don't know what the hell it's about. And no. I'm not going to spend how many hours of a playthrough that goes into it and add more to the story. I intend to finish this, with what I have planned for it, and that's final. Besides, like Neptune said, this story is intended to be a somewhat fun story apart from the usual crossover stories I have. (you know the ones I'm talking about.) That and this story is almost three quarters done so it would be pointless to add some dramatic villain scheme and it wouldn't fit into the story. "Sighs." Damn that's a long Author's Note. Let's get the game started already.

RWBY: Press Start

Level Twenty Seven

Game Over

The roar of an engine coming from a boat could be heard in over the sea. As of now, Neptune and the rest of gang were making their way over to Leanbox. It was a journey Ruby and her team was extremely thankful for since they had to cross through the Gigo Main Entrance to get to said boat. They had to fight through several of the monsters that jumped them. Thankfully, they were able to avoid the A Class monster that resided in the area. So now, they were using this time to relax and recover their HP. All the while of finally telling Neptune and the rest of group what happened to them during the festival. Naturally, Neptune was ecstatic about it. "You're finally together after how many chapters of this story now? Well, not together as a whole team but two people individually. You know what I mean."

Of course, they did and to be honest, they couldn't feel happier about it. Yang made it obvious in showing her affections by having her arm around Blake and grinning. "I have to say, I've never felt more alive."

Her sister had to agree since she and Weiss were holding hands (much to the heiress' embarrassment.) "I know right? This is so much better than all the cookies in the world."

Their respective girlfriends loved this as well. After so long of what they were going through, it was like nothing more than a distant memory. In fact, they felt better than ever and that much was obvious as it showed in their fighting against the monsters earlier. A team that was almost torn apart was made stronger than ever before. Of course, they weren't the only ones who reconciled. Noire and Plutia were finally together but decided to tell their friends a little later on. Right now, the Lastation CPU was just happy she was with the girl she secretly longed for. Now that everything was settled, of course, Neptune would ask the kind of question only she would think of. "So, now that the Whiterose and Bumblebee pairings are established, who's the neko and who's the tachi?"

And cue the record scratch as the team was very confused by the question. Noire, on the other hand, blushed at the question. "Why the hell are you asking that all of a sudden?!"

The other CPU shrugged. "Why not? Don't you want to know too Noire?"

It was the last thing on the other girl's mind. "No, I do not!"

Peashy was just confused by all of this. "Neptuna? What does that mean?"

"Now now Peashy. It's something you don't need to know." Plutia stated.

The team was still wondering about what Neptune asked before. "Just what are you going on about this time?" Weiss asked.

Apparently, they didn't know the terms. "Well, if you don't know, no sense of telling you. Although in Yang's case, Blake is definitely the neko if you know what I'm saying." Somehow, the Faunus girl knew what Neptune was talking about.

There was still the matter of the elephant present. "Well, if we can switch topics for a bit…" Weiss looked over Blanc who was reading a book to pass the time. "Why is she coming along with us?"

Neptune smiled at the question. "Because why not? It'll be fun to have the old Victory team back together again for a nice reunion."

Blanc wasn't as excited since she is going to her least favorite place that was ruled over by her least favorite CPU. "I'm not overly excited to see Thunder Tits again."

Yang raised an eyebrow to that. "If you don't like Vert that much, then why come along anyway?"

"Because I asked her to." Everyone turned to Plutia. "It would be so fun if Blanny could come with us."

Blanc sighed as the CPU knew she couldn't say no to Plutia. "Why are we heading over to Leanbox by boat again anyway? We can just fly over there."

She brought up a good point but there was a very good reason as to why they're traveling by boat. "Do you really want Sadie to appear and scare the living daylights out of Blake?"

Everyone dreaded the thought of Iris Heart appearing. Blake especially. Even the name sent shivers down her spine. Noire did wonder about something about what the other girl said. "And why would Blake, in particular, be afraid of her?"

"Because she's an adorable catgirl." Plutia answered.

Now the other two CPUs were confused. "Catgirl?"

Neptune thought to clear this up. "Yeah. Blake here is something called a Faunus from her world and she's your genuine catgirl. You should've seen her when she first saw Sadie. It took us a bit to find her and was up in a tree." A funny moment to her but to Blake, seeing Iris Heart for the first time was still a terrifying moment of her life. Even the thought of her still scared the Faunus girl

Noire took a closer look at Blake and did see the resemblance. "Now that you've mentioned it, the gold eyes do kinda give it away. I'm guessing the bow is hiding the ears."

Blanc saw it as well. "Well, it comes to catgirls; some features do stick out more than others. The golden eyes are a staple." Blake couldn't believe these girls deduced her that quickly. Then again, they were deities.

Yang looked over the sea in thought. "So, when are we arriving in Leanbox? It's been a pretty long boat ride so far."

Blanc flipped over another page in her book. "About another half hour."

That was more than enough time for the blonde. She stretched out her arms and lied down with her head on Blake's lap. "Well, I'm going to take a little catnap. You don't mind right Blake?"

Her new girlfriend smiled at the other girl. "Not at all." And with that, Yang closed her eyes and enjoyed the feeling of having Blake's lap as a pillow.

Plutia had the same idea as she lied down with her head on Noire's lap. She sighed contently at the feeling. "This feels so good. Nighty night Noire." She quickly fell asleep.

Noire couldn't help but be embarrassed by this but that didn't stop her from loving it inside her head. It did capture the attention of the other girls. Neptune in particular. "So, Noire. What's the deal with you and Plutie?" Noire didn't reply but she did see the jealously Blanc had. She, in return, gave the other CPU a smirk as if she was saying something along the lines of she'd won.

Loading…

After the hour and forty-five boat ride, the group had finally arrived at Leanbox and were walking through the streets. Team RWBY was…less then amazed by it. They were still impressed but not as much as the last three nations they've been in. "Well, it looks different than the Leanbox back in the previous world." Weiss stated.

Yang wasn't as convinced. "I don't know. It looks the same to me. Just with fewer highways."

Ruby still liked it though. "I think it's still cool."

Blake looked around the nation a little closer. "So, how is this Leanbox different?"

Neptune had to agree with the latter's opinion. "Beats me. It's Leanbox and still ruled over by Vert. Now that I think about it, being here with all of you traveling like this brings me back the first time we arrived here. Ah, good memories."

Noire highly doubted what good memories counted toward the other CPU. "Yeah, nothing says good memories like Vert suddenly showing up out of nowhere, saying that she'll beat us all by taking our shares, and kinda kidnapped your sister."

"That about sums up our encounter with her." Blanc stated.

Something Noire mentioned earlier caught Weiss' attention. "Wait, this Vert actually kidnapped Nepgear?"

Neptune thought she should clear that up. "Uh, not exactly. Let's just say Vert thinks that if a CPU is born in her nation, it means that she's her little sister. Of course, I took offense to that. Nepgear is my kid sister!"

That explanation was clear as mud to the team. Noire thought to explain further. "Basically, when Nepgear arrived in our world, she wasn't CPU so Neptune had the idea of going to Vert to see if she had some CPU Memory Cores. She did and Nepgear did become a CPU but…Vert automatically declared that she was her sister since she became one in her nation."

Yang already found a similarly between the two Verts. "Apparently, Vert really wants a sister."

Blake was wondering something else about this world's Vert. "So, what was with the taking shares detail?"

Neptune laughed when she remembered that failed fiasco. Apparently, it was something funny to her. "Vert thought she could take our shares by introducing bigger hardware to our nations. However, that failed miserably and there were a lot of complaints about them. She honestly thought she had us." Blanc explained.

Judging from how they were reminiscing all of this, it must've been somewhat of a good memory for them. "And you're friends with her now?" Ruby asked.

She got four different responses. "Yep/maybe/something like that/uh-huh."

Noire thought to clarify a little more. "I mean, we're more like friendly rivals that can be civilized. We do still compete for shares."

Neptune thought otherwise. "Whatever. You know that we're all friends despite what we had to go through in the third game." Noire wasn't going to deny that. "In any case, enough about the good old times. Let's get to Vert's place and drop by to say hello."

Loading…

The group managed to arrive at Vert's basilicom which didn't look all that different from the other ones. A very large looking mansion. Neptune slammed the door open. "Hey Vert! Guess who's here!" Her response was silence. Now the CPU was confused. "Vert? Olly olly oxen free!" She entered the building with the rest of the group following suit.

Already Weiss noticed something off. "Why would anyone leave the front door unlocked?"

"Depends on who's stupid enough to go breaking into the home of a CPU." Blanc brought up a good point.

Peashy was looking around as well. "Bert!? Where are you!?"

Yang laughed at the name Peashy yelled out. "Bert? Really?"

Her sister thought differently. "I think it's cute she calls her that."

Noire agreed to that. "Vert thinks the same. Speaking of her, where is she?" That was the millionnep question for all of them.

The group soon made their way to Vert's bedroom and once again, Neptune slammed the door open. "Dramatic entrance!"

Weiss should be doing this but she questioned the other girl's action. "What was the point of that?"

Everyone looked inside the room and found that it was empty which was very unusual since Vert was equal to Neptune when it came to playing video games. There was also something else very unusual about the room. "It looks like she has the same taste as boys being a little close to each other like the other Vert." Blake stated.

Noire crossed her arms and began to think. "I don't it. It's not like Vert to go up and disappear."

Neptune had a few ideas. "There are three scenarios for something like this to happen. It's either A: She's out getting the latest video game. B: She was abducted by some evil cult. Or C: She's out questing."

Weiss doubted one of the options. "One of those is definitely out."

One of the other two seemed more plausible to Blanc. "It wouldn't surprise me if she was out buying a game but the quest makes sense as well. It isn't uncommon for a goddess to do quests every once in a while."

It became obvious of what their next plan of action was. "Alright then troops! This is how it'll work. We'll split up into two groups. One to check out the game store and the other to the guild."

For once in a very rare time, Neptune had the right idea. There was only one problem. "And who's going to be in what group?" Noire asked.

That much was obvious. "Well, Ruby and her team could go to the game stores while we hit the guild. We're still part of a team FYI. We can just check what kind of quest Vert's doing."

Again, very rare for Neptune to plan this out. Now if only she applied this to her CPU duties. Ruby walked up to her "In that case…" She handed the other girl her scroll. "If you do find out, contact us."

Neptune gladly accepted it. "Hey thanks and no problem. We'll make contact ASAP."

"One problem though." Everyone turned to Noire. "They don't know the layout of the nation nor do they know where the guild is."

That was a slight problem for them. Fortunately, Neptune already thought of the solution. "Well, I guess one of us will just have to show them around. Noire, you're up for the job."

And of course, Noire had a problem with the other CPU giving out the orders. "Why the hell do I have to do what you say?!"

Loading…

Neptune, Blanc, and Peashy made their way to the guild while Noire and Plutia showed team RWBY around Leanbox to find the missing CPU. It was a 50/50 shot so either party had a chance of finding out. Of course, there were a lot of game stores but they managed to minimize it to stores that are selling the most recent popular game. The first group finally arrived at the guild. Neptune couldn't help but feel nostalgic. "Ahh the guild. It's been a while since last came here."

"That's because you barely do any work at all." Blanc commented.

The other CPU decided to ignore that. "Whatever. Let's go inside." The group did just that. Once they were inside, Neptune walked up to the terminal and touched the screen. Two options appeared. "Welcome. Are you returning guild member or a new guild member?" Neptune chose the first option. "Please insert card for verification" This was the easy part. CPUs had special cards so Neptune pulled her out and placed it on the screen. At least it wasn't different than the guilds back in her world. "Welcome CPU Neptune. Are you returning from a quest or selecting one?" Of course, she chose the second option. "Please select a quest." Neptune scrolled through the quests. Ones that were highlighted meant that someone had already taken it up. For CPUs however, the quests they take up are highlighted in their own color so people could see which one they're doing.

After some more scrolling, Neptune had finally found the quest Vert was on. She saw the quest Vert was on and the location of it. "Bingo! Looks like she's off questing somewhere. The Kobaba ruins? That's weird but hey."

After getting what she wanted, Neptune chose to cancel. "Would you like to select a quest?" The CPU pressed no. "Thank you and come again."

Now since that was done, she walked over to Blanc and Peashy. "So, did you find out where Vert is?"

Neptune pulled out Ruby's scroll and started to text the other group. "Yep. Letting the others know. Now, let's go catch ourselves a Vert."

Loading…

After meeting up with the Ruby and the others, the group found themselves in the Kobaba ruins where Vert currently is. The location itself was more impressive than Leanbox. Out of all them, Blake was the most amazed. Yang liked it second to her Faunus girlfriend. "This place is so rad. I mean, look at it."

While it did look pretty, they still had to be on guard. "Just remember to stick together. I've heard that some people who take up quests in this place get lost and never to return."

Ruby was a little frightened by that. Weiss looked into that a little deeper. "Being lost in a place like this and with the monsters you have to constantly fight."

Yang felt slightly uncomfortable with that. "Man, that's dark right there. I guess you can say it's even…Grimm?"

Everyone groaned at the pun. Except for Neptune and Plutia. They just laughed. "Good one."

Plutia giggled some more. "That was funny Yangy."

Blake looked around the ruins a little more. "So, what is Vert doing here in the first place?"

Neptune briefly saw the details of the quest Vert was currently on. "Just your usual monster hack and slash. No biggie."

They walked a little further in the ruins until they heard a loud crash from up ahead. Once they approached the site, the group the saw dust kicked up and a shadow of a figure coughing. "Well, that felt rather unfortunate." The dust cleared up and they finally saw Vert in her HDD form.

Peashy giggled happily as she ran over to the other CPU. "Bert!"

Vert heard her voice and turned to Peashy while looking surprised. "Peashy? What are you doing here?" Peashy gave Vert a happy hug.

"Hey there Vert!"

The Leanbox CPU looked ahead to see a face she hadn't seen in a while. "Neptune? And everyone else too? What are you doing here?"

Neptune smiled at her. "Here to see you duh. Of course, when we dropped by your basilicom, you weren't there. Kinda weird how you're taking up a quest all of a sudden."

Vert was touched that they wanted to see her. "It's not strange at all. Can't a goddess help out her nation once in a while?"

"What in the world!?" Everyone looked over to Weiss and the rest of the team. Like before, the heiress was appalled by Vert's HDD attire. "What is it with you and revealing outfits!? Your front is nearly exposed!"

Yang had to be honest that she couldn't quite stop staring at Vert's breasts. Something Blake caught and elbowed her girlfriend. "Ow."

Ruby just waved at her. "Uh, hi there. It's nice to meet you."

Vert stared at the team in confusion. "I'm sorry. Who are all of you?"

Neptune laughed nervously. "Oh right. Vert, this is Ruby and her team RWBY. Team RWBY, this is Vert, as you already know but the CPU of this world's Leanbox. You see Vert; they're a little out of town. By out of town, I mean they're from a different world and trying to get back to it."

A quick summary but Vert understood it clearly. "I see. Well, I would say it's nice to meet all of you but this is no place for humans to be at the moment."

Ruby raised an eyebrow. "Why is that?" Her answer came in the form a loud roar coming from where Vert crashed from. Naturally, everyone covered their ears.

Once it stopped, they uncovered their ears but now had fear coming over them. "What…was that?" Yang asked in a scared voice.

They felt the ground shake a few times while hearing thunderous footsteps and they were coming to them. Vert summoned her lance. "I must confess. While on the job, I'd stumbled across something very vile. In fact, that was the reason why I crashed through here in the first place."

They felt another tremor and soon saw a very large figure approaching them. It was the biggest Ruby and her team had seen thus far. Once it came into full view, it roared again at them. Ruby was almost too scared to speak. "W-W-What is that?"

The CPUs instantly knew that everyone was in trouble now. "No way. That's a…a…"

"Class S monster. Sealed Disaster." Neptune finished what Noire started.

Ruby and team heard that clearly but couldn't believe it. "Class…S?" The dragon growled at all of them.

Yang took a step back. "I think that's a little out of our league."

Neptune and the other CPUs ran up in front of them. "Girls, I believe you may want to step back a bit." She transformed into her HDD form.

Blanc did the same. "Class S monsters are rare and are very powerful. They're not to be underestimated."

Noire went into her HDD form. "Strong as you girls are, this is way over your heads."

Plutia transformed as well. Much to Blake's displeasure. "All of you run off like the good little girls that you are. I would hate to see cute little Rosy and friends get caught in the crossfire." For once, the team was actually glad that Iris Heart was here.

Lastly, Peashy went into her HDD and was ready to fight. "We'll beat up the bad dragon!"

Well, there really wasn't anything Ruby and her team could do. "Right. Good luck." The team ran off away from what it looked like to be a difficult battle. If a monster like that was enough to worry even goddesses, it was an opponent not to be taken lightly ever. Once they were far enough as it is, all they could do now was watch. "So, you think they can take it on?"

Yang hoped so. "Maybe. I know they're gods and everything but that monster looked like it could eat King Taijitus for breakfast, Death Stalkers for lunch and Nevermore for dinner." Everyone agreed to that. Out of all the monsters they've seen in this world, this was the strongest yet.

The Sealed Disaster roared at the CPUs as it raised its claw at them. The monster slammed down its claw at the goddesses but the all scattered to the air to avoid the attack. The result of that was the ground shaking violently and strong winds. Ruby and her team felt the power behind the attack and took shelter behind two pillars. Two of them each behind each one. This was much more than what Weiss anticipated. "What…incredible power."

Something about this bothered Neptune. "How did you even run into this in the first place Vert?"

It was a somewhat embarrassing story for the Leanbox CPU. "Would you believe me that I encountered it by accident?"

Blanc scoffed at that. "Seriously? This is one hell of an accident!"

"We can argue about Vert's screw up later. Right now, let's deal with this first!" Noire argued.

Plutia giggled menacingly. "My sweet Noire is correct. Let's teach this monster a painful lesson it won't ever forget."

And everyone turned to her looking confused while Noire panicked a little. "My sweet Noire?" They all said at the same time.

"Plutia!" Of all the times for that to slip out. However, embarrassment would have wait later as Noire saw the next attack from the Sealed Disaster coming right at her. She flew up to avoid the attack and was above the monster. Noire suddenly started to drop right to the head while a red aura covered her body. "Volcano Dive!" Her kick struck the top of the head and fire flare up from the attack with a resounding boom. The Lastation CPU jumped off only to see that her attack had little effect. "I knew it was going to take more than that."

"Out of the way!" Noire looked over to Blanc who tossed up an orb of blue energy. As it came down, Blanc slammed it forward with her ax. "Gefahrlichtern!" The orb separated into countless lights heading right at the monster and struck it all over. Like Noire attack from before, it had little effect. "Damn."

"Sylhet Spear!" Several lances of green light struck the monster from the side. Vert wasn't finished yet as she charged right at it. "Rainy Ratnapura!" She delivered countless attacks from her lance all over the front of the monster right before sending one final attack at the Sealed Disaster passing by it. She turned around as the monster did the same and roared at it.

"Plutia!" Neptune flew right at the monster while it was distracted. Plutia followed the other CPU closely. "Victory Slash!" She slashed at the monster while passing it as it did a considerable amount of damage.

Plutia wasn't too far behind with her attack. "Fighting Viper 2!" She stuck down at the monster with her sword and then up all while delivering electric damage.

Peashy was up last and delivered a series of punches to the center that did push the monster back a little. She did a backflip while rising higher in the air before performing a drop kick right to it. "Hard Break Kick!" She kicked in the center of the chest and the monster roared as it fell down to the ground while Peashy laughed. "That was fun!"

Of course, this being an S-Class monster, it was going to take more than that to bring it down. The monster already started to stand up and roared at the CPUs. Neptune couldn't help but chuckle. "I guess we're going for the second turn."

Blanc raised her ax to her. "Good because I have a lot more to dish out."

Vert was grateful for their help but there was still a small problem. "You do realize this is still my quest."

Of course, they took that into account. "Look, if it'll make you feel any better, you can still take credit. Deal?"

The other CPU smiled at the proposition. "That'll be fine." All of the CPUs charged at the Sealed Disaster at once and attacked it with everything they had.

A little ways away from the battle, Ruby and her team continued to watch the battle. Already they could tell they were treating this monster differently than the ones from before. This monster was legitimately threat. The young leader couldn't take her eyes off the battle. "Oh wow. They're incredible."

Plutia and Noire struck at the monster with their swords at once and then flew back to distance themselves away from it. "This thing has to be at half health right now."

Her childhood friend only laughed at the challenge in front. "It does make things more exciting, don't you think?"

The CPUs were going for another attack barrage until they saw the monster wrapped its arms around its body and its wings covering it as well. Neptune had a bad feeling about what it was planning. "Heads up. It's up to something."

Blanc wasn't going to wait around. "Then let's attack it while we still can!" Everyone agreed to that. This was their chance and they were going to take it. However, the monster began to glow and that immediately spelled danger.

Blake certainly sensed it. "We have to get away, now!" Her team thought the same and began to run away.

The monster glowed brighter until it stopped gathering light. Just as the CPUs were near it, the Sealed Disaster bellowed as it opened up and unleashed a powerful explosion that enveloped them all. The attack didn't stop there as it obliterated everything all around in its path. Unfortunately, Ruby and her team were about to be caught in it as well. All of them screamed when the explosion reached them and separated from each other. Once it subsided, Ruby was in an intense amount of pain even with her aura at full power protecting herself from the explosion. She slowly opened her eyes to see the rest of her team in the state as her. The CPUs were in a similar state as they were embedded into some of the buildings of the ruins. Just when this situation couldn't be any worse, Ruby heard those same heavy footsteps coming towards them. The young leader looked back as painful as it was to see that the monster was coming over to them. Ruby struggled to stand up. "We have to…get away." She saw where her team was at the moment. Yang and Blake were lying on the ground together. Ruby must've figured that her sister grabbed the Faunus girl to protect her from the explosion. She searched for Weiss and found her but to the young leader's horror, the Sealed Disaster was approaching her first.

The heiress started to stir as well and opened her eyes to see the monster closely moving in. Weiss struggled to stand up to get away from the monster but found little success. The monster towered over her and raised its claw. There was no way even her strongest glyph would be able to block the attack. She was in fear for her life. The monster started to swing at the heiress. It was only at that moment that time seemed to have stood still. It wasn't until she saw rose petals in front of her eyes. Next thing Weiss noticed as that she was thrown back. She saw that it was Ruby that pulled her away. Ruby pulled out Crescent Rose and tried to block the attack herself but as the claw hit the weapon, it easily swatted the young leader to the side and sent her away crashing through several pillars. It took Weiss few seconds to register what just happened in front of her. For a moment, her heart stopped. "RUBY!"

Yang started to come to and opened her eyes as she heard Weiss' cry. From the sound of it, she herself was worried. She sat up and looked around. Fear started to overcome as she couldn't find her younger sister anywhere. It was then she realized the horrible truth. "Ruby…no…" Blake opened her eyes to see her girlfriend with a look she hasn't seen from her before.

As the monster was about to attack Weiss, something wrapped around its arm was pulled back. "How dare you…" The Sealed Disaster looked back to see a very pissed off Iris Heart. "I'll make you pay with your life!"

Behind her were the other CPUs who shared her anger. For Neptune, however, she was also feeling guilt. "This is my fault. I should've known better. This falls into my hands."

Blanc flicked her ax. "We'll pay this bastard back tenfold!" All of them charged at the monster.

Loading…

Away from the fight, Ruby lied against a pillar at the base. She was bleeding profusely from her head and she couldn't even move. Breathing even was hurting her. The young leader was in so much pain, she couldn't move. Her aura wasn't enough to protect her. She was barely conscious as is. Of course, the only thing going through her mind was Weiss. "Weiss…I hope…you're okay. I'm…sorry." One thing she couldn't believe was that this happened right after finally they were together. Her eyes began to feel heavy. "I'm…so tired. Maybe after a…little nap…I'll…get back…to…them…" She closed her eyes. Little did she know something small fell out from a crack in the pillar above and dropped into her mouth. Her body began to glow shortly after.

Loading…

Yang roared in anger as she tried to make her way over to the monster that swatted her sister. However, Blake was holding her from behind despite the other girl in her awakened semblance form. Something her blonde girlfriend didn't like. "Let me go! Let me go! I have to…I have to make that monster pay!"

Blake understood how Yang felt but it was clear she wasn't thinking straight. "Yang, please! What are you going to do? Even goddesses are having a hard time with that monster."

Her girlfriend was beyond listening to reason. "I don't care! That bastard hurt my sister! I have to…have to…" She stopped and began to cry as she exited out of her semblance. "Ruby…" Yang dropped to her knees while Blake still held her. The Faunus girl shared the same dreadful feeling her girlfriend was experiencing.

Blake looked ahead to Weiss who must've been feeling the same way. She was right. Weiss was on her knees feeling the heaviest guilt she had felt. "It's my fault. It's my fault Ruby's gone. Damn it! If only…if only I moved away, she wouldn't have done that. You…stupid dolt. Why? Why did you have to do that? And to think…we've finally…we were finally…."

She heard the monster roar and saw the CPUs continuing to fight the Sealed Disaster. Blanc screamed as she dropped her ax on the monster. "Getter Ravine!" The attack struck the top of the head with explosive force. The monster rebounded as it swiped at the Lowee CPU and struck her. Blanc spun mid-air for a short time before regaining her balance. She growled at the monster. "Bastard!"

Noire went passed her as her sword began to glow in a rainbow color. "Torneaid Sword" She slashed at the monster downward. She flew away from the monster. "Damn it."

"Cross Combo!" Neptune made a series of slashes at the monster one after another. After kicking it after the last attack. She held out her hand and four large swords appeared from behind her. "32-bit Mega Blade!" All four swords launched at once at the monster struck it one after another. She still wasn't finished. "Critical Edge!" The Sealed Disaster recovered fast enough and retaliated back at Neptune's attack. Both attacks hit each other but the monster overpowered her and sent her back. She stopped and growled at the monster. Neptune tried to give it another go.

"Neptune."

She stopped and turned to Vertand wasn't too pleased. "Vert-"

"I know you must feel responsible but charging in recklessly isn't the way." She noticed the way how Neptune was acting after Ruby was swatted her.

Even if Vert had a point, it was the only option Neptune had. "It's my fault, Vert. I brought them along in this. I'm responsible for what happened to Ruby. It all falls on me."

Vert may not know the girl but judging how Neptune was feeling about this, she must've been an important friend to her. She looked over the rest of the girls. "As of now, their safety is first priority"

Plutia was already on that. "Come now my darlings. This isn't the place for children such as yourselves." Usually, Blake would be scared shitless with Iris Heart being so near but concern for her girlfriend overcame that. She was carrying her away from the fight. Plutia looked over to the heiress who was looking at the fight in front of her. "Time to go now Weissy or do you want me to drag you through the dirt?"

Weiss stood up after that. "What about Ruby?"

Iris Heart narrowed her eyes. "Once the monster is dealt with, we'll search for her."

The heiress gritted her teeth. "That's not good enough! I need to know if she's okay!" She grabbed her shoulders and shuddered. "She has to be…she has to be…"

She felt a hand on her own and looked back to see Plutia standing right behind her. "Complaining about it won't do anything. If you wish to see your rose again, move." Weiss looked away. She couldn't stop worrying about Ruby. Iris Heart's patience was running out as she grabbed the heiress by the collar and dragged her. "Let's go."

Weiss struggled to break free. "H-Hey! Let me go!"

Plutia couldn't help but like this side of the other girl. "Oh, I'll let you go. Only to punish you for being a disrespectful brat that is." And Weiss stopped when she heard that.

Over to the CPUs, they were still fighting against the Sealed Disaster. Peashy gave it another hit which sent the monster back a step and Vert followed suit. She thrust her lance at the Sealed Disaster. Neptune and Blanc were up next. "Let's go, Blanc!"

The other CPU nodded. "Right!" They flew right at the monster. All of a sudden, countless energy shots were fired randomly from the sky at the Sealed Disaster and the two stopped. "What the hell was that!?"

Plutia and everyone with her looked over wondering the same thing. After the shooting stopped, the monster was suddenly attacked by a streak of red light striking it all over. After hitting it from underneath the chin, a shot rang out at it hit the center. It was a sound Weiss knew all too well. "That shot. It can't be…"

The light faded and everyone saw the figure from within. They couldn't take their eyes off the new arrival. "Who…is that?" Noire asked.

As the figure landed, they saw what she looked like. Her attire the same of a CPU with red boots above her knees with black running along the top and detached sleeves as well. The same red and black features were the same as her main outfit with an opening that revealed her cleavage as her breasts were as large as Vert's. She had bright long red hair in a ponytail tied by a clip in the form a symbol Weiss recognized. Part of the hair in front covered her right eye. Four wings of light, two at each side were behind her back were red too and curved. In her hand was a scythe that looked similar to another scythe Weiss easily recognized except it looked more cybernetic. Her appearance, the color scheme, even the weapon. It was like the figure they were all looking was an older version of… "Ruby?"

The figure looked over to Weiss and gasped. The heiress couldn't believe what she was seeing in front of her. The figure smiled at her. "Indeed I am." She spoke in a deeper more mature voice. "However…" She looked back at the Seal Disaster in front of her and summoned a second scythe into her other hand. "You may also wish to address me as…CPU Crimson Heart."

A/N: I swear if the Sealed Disaster isn't what I think it is, the last quarter of this chapter just got very awkward for me.
