Zero Dimension, Main Base

We then see Nepgear, Kirby, and his buddies patching Uzume up. Neptune then came inside of the tent and said.

Neptune: Hey guys, how's Uzume doing?

Nepgear: Oh, Neptune. We were able to stop the bleeding somehow, but the medicine here isn't enough...

Neptune: You can't make any?

Nepgear: Well, there are some recipes in my database, but I don't have the essential ingredients.

Magolor: Yeah, which is unfortunate for us.

Neptune: Don't worry about that, I'll get those for you. Once you have the right ingredients, you guys can take care of her, right?

Marx: Of course.

Nepgear: ...I mean, I've never made medicine before, but this is for Uzume. I know I can do it.

Magolor: Don't you mean we can do it. After all, we are helping you till Uzume gets better.

Nepgear: You're right.

Neptune: Well said! Just as I expected of my little sister! Although, you aren't really my sis, but you know. 

Neptune: You're so smart, Nepgear. I couldn't even compete with your intellect, but I'll help out too however I can! We're going to save Uzume together!

Nepgear: I'm gonna go along with you.

Magolor: Yeah, were coming too.

Neptune: You guys don't need to stay with Uzume?

Nepgear: We've given her all the treatment we can for now. Umio and the others can keep an eye on her.

Nepgear: Right now, the medicine is our top priority. If Uzume doesn't get it soon, her condition could escalate and become life-threatening.

Neptune: We'd better hurry then.

Croire: What a pain. If that's the case, I'll help, too.

Nepgear: That voice... Croire? Where is she?

Neptune: Ta-daaa! She's right here!

Nepgear: What?! What's she doing in the specimen book?!

Neptune: It was her fault that Uzume's in this condition.

Neptune: So, as punishment, I taped her into the book so she won't cause any more trouble.

Magolor: Yeah, she kinda deserve it for causing so much trouble.

Nepgear: Oh, but I guess with Croire in this form, the book actually kinda suits her.

Croire: Hey, did you just laugh right now?!

Croire: Neptune! You better let me the hell out already!

Neptune: Sure. On one condition.

Neptune: We are gonna go look for the medicinal ingredients for Uzume, so if you lend a hand, I might consider letting you out of there.

Croire: Are you for real?! If that's all I gotta do, no problem! C'mon, let's get to it!

And with that, they nodded and they were heading out in order to get the medicinal ingredients for Uzume.

After a few minutes have passed, they were a bit far away from the main base as Neptune said.

Neptune: We ran out here pretty energetically and all, but what exactly are the things we need to find?

Nepgear: I believe the items are Jingu Cherry Blossoms and something called the Oratorio's Tangram.

Croire: That's easy. They both drop from monsters.

Neptune: Oooh! You're pretty knowledgeable, Crostie!

Nepgear: I think I've regained a little respect for you.

Marx: yeah, same goes for us too.

Croire: Hey, I'm not a recorder of history for nothin'. C'mon, stop flappin' your gums and let's go already.

Magolor: Wait... But before we go, do you know where are the monsters located.

Croire: The one monster is located at the Nameless Ruins which is a name of the city. And the other monster is located at Jingu Sakura Park. 

Kirby: Poyo, poyo!

Croire: Umm... I don't get what Kirby is saying.

Marx: I'll translate that for you.

Marx: Ahem. Kirby said, Hey I know those places.

Neptune: You do?

Bandana Dee started to write something to them and showed it which Nepgear reads.

Nepgear: Yes, we do know where those places are at. So we could take you there.

Neptune: Well that's great.

Bandana Dee erase what he wrote and started to write something else to them and showed it which Nepgear now reads.

Nepgear: But before we go take you there, we need to split us into two groups.

Magolor: That's a great idea, Bandana Dee. At this rate, we'll get the job done a lot faster.

Magolor: Me, Kirby, Nepgear, and Gooey will be going to the Nameless Ruins. While King Dedede, Marx, Bandana Dee, and Neptune will go to the Jingu Sakura Park.

Magolor: Once we got the ingredients, we'll meet here at the exact spot, got it guys.

Neptune: Got it!

Said Neptune, while everyone else nodded as Magolor.

Magolor: Okay, let's do it!

And with that, they split up into teams and ran off to where the ingredients are located.

https://youtu.be/7TuxFKJAoYM

After two hours have passed, Nepgear, Kirby, Magolor, and Gooey finally made it at Nameless Ruins where they are looking for the monster. As they been walking around the city, Magolor said.

Magolor: So this must be the place.

Nepgear: Yeah. Apparently, this place was a nation until the giant came in and destroy everything along with the people were in it.

Magolor: That's terrible.

Nepgear: I know, which is quite sad to see this happen. But anyway, we should find the monster and get that ingredient.

Magolor: Right!

(Timeskip)

They have been looking around the city for quite a while and Magolor said.

Magolor: Nepgear, did you find the monster?

Nepgear: No, I haven't seen the monster yet.

Magolor: Gooey, did you find the monster?

Gooey shook his head saying no.

Magolor: What about you, Kirby. 

Magolor turns around and sees...

...

...

No one and Magolor said.

Magolor: Kirby, where did you go?

Magolor, Nepgear, and Gooey look around left and right. Then, Nepgear spotted something and said.

Nepgear: Hey you two, I see Kirby.

Magolor: You do, where?

Nepgear: Kirby's right over there.

Said Nepgear as she pointed at Kirby who was hiding behind the big rock. Next, they ran to where Kirby was at and Magolor said.

Magolor: Kirby, what are you doing here?

Kirby: Poyo.

Then, Kirby went out of hiding and pointed at the monster they were looking for.

Magolor: Is that the monster who has the ingredient?

Nepgear: I think so.

Magolor: Well, we might as well beat this monster and get that item we need.

(BGM Ended)

Next, La Ignis was defeated as he disappear leaving an item he drop. As Stone Kirby, Purple Sister, and Gooey jump off the ship and landed onto the ground to where Magolor is at, they walk towards the item and said.

Purple Sister: Well, we got what we need. So let's head back to the exact spot just like you said.

Masher's body is rectangular, and its armor is covered in spikes and it wears shoulder plates. Its hands now look more like gloves in appearance, and its feet are rectangular as well. And his name is Masher, one of the mini bosses that Kirby encounters

Purple Sister: Woah! What is that thing.

Stone Kirby: Poyo, poyo!

Purple Sister: But what about you. I can't just leave you guys here.

Magolor: No time. Just go already, we'll handle this.

After two hours have passed, they were now back together and Neptune said.

Neptune: We should have what we need now.

Nepgear: Yes, with these, we can save Uzume.

Kirby and his buddies nodded saying yes to her statement.

Croire: You better not screw up, got it? Our lives are ridin' on you making this medicine the right way.

Nepgear: ...Oogh, now that you've said that, I'm getting nervous... I'm not very confident...

Croire: Jeez, we gonna be alright...?

Croire: Hey, since I helped you guys out already, you can go ahead and let me out now.

Neptune: Hmmmmmmmm...

Neptune: Yeah, maybe.

Croire: You're gonna break your promise?!

Neptune: I don't recall specifically promising that I would let you out.

Magolor: Heh... Nice one, Neptune.

Croire: Dammit, you tricked me!

Neptune: It's not tricking you, I was just taking advantage of you~!

Croire: Grrrrrrr...!

Marx then whisper to Magolor saying.

Marx (Whisper): Well, at least Croire knows how Kirby feels when we use him to our advantage.

Magolor (Whisper): Yeah, tell me about it.

(Timeskip)

We then see Umio who was watching Uzume in her sleep. Next, everyone came inside of the tent as Neptune said.

Neptune: We're back!

Nepgear: Sorry for the wait. How's Uzume feeling?

Umio: Nothing's changed since you left, but she does seem to be sleeping well.

Magolor: Well that's good to know.

Umio: Did you locate the ingredients?

Nepgear: We did... and all that's left for me to do is to make medicine, but...

Umio: ...You're anxious?

Nepgear: ...Yeah. Knowing that Uzume's life, and consequently the fate of this world, are resting on my shoulders... I can't stop shaking...

Umio: It is not your responsibility to assume the entire burden, Gearsy. The moment Uzume failed to win, the fate of this world was decided.

Umio: Even if the medicine fails to cure Uzume, it is not your fault. Don't worry. Try your best.

Umio then left as Nepgear said.

Nepgear: Umio...

Umio was now outside who was talking to himself saying.

Umio: ...Although I feel Gearsy needed those words, I truly hope they will able to save Uzume and this world of ours.

Umio: ...Now then, I'll do what I can as well.

Umio: Gearsy, everyone. Uzume is in your hands now.

(Another Timeskip)

Nepgear: ...Lastly, I'll mix in the ingredients I just pestled... there.

Nepgear: It's finished. Now I just need to apply this to Uzume's wound...

Nepgear: I should let her drink some of this Nep Bull VII I got from Neptune, too. I think it'll be therapeutic for her.

Nepgear: ...Whew. That should do it.

Next, Neptune, Kirby, and his buddies came inside of the tent and said.

Neptune: Hey, Nepgear. How's it going?

Nepgear: Oh, hey guys. I just gave Uzume the medicine... It's all up to her now.

Magolor: That's great... is what we would want to say.

Neptune: But we have a bit of an emergency.

Nepgear: Oh, no. What happened?

(BGM: Emergency - Mega Dimension Neptunia VII)

Neptune: Crostie and I just got back from recon. We were checking up on Arfoire.

Croire: Yeah, turns out that she freakin' became one with that Dark CPU!

Nepgear: One... you mean, they fused?

Croire: Yep. I'm glad you're not an idiot, makes my life much easier. Before, that Dark CPU was just Arfoire's puppet obeying her commands.

Croire: But now that they've fused, she changed the game completely. She's got that giant's body and is in total control of its power.

Croire: Lucky for us, she can't move very fast but... well, she's making her way over here as we speak.

Nepgear: N-No way... Uzume's hasn't even woken up yet!

???: ...We gotta hurry and evacuate everyone.

Then, they saw Uzume waking up and Nepgear said.

Nepgear: Uzume! You're awake!

Kirby: Poyo!

Uzume: Call Umio. We needa get all the local monsters outta her ASAP.

Uzume: ...Ow!

Nepgear: You shouldn't even been up, Uzume! Your wounds haven't had time to heal!

Uzume: Gearsy, if we don't get a move on and let them know, they're gonna get squashed by that beast. We gotta tell 'em...!

Nepgear: You stay here. I'll go instead. Please, you need to rest as much as you can, especially if we're gonna have to fight.

Neptune: What are you saying, Nepgear?! There's no way Uzume can fight the Dark CPU in her condition!

Marx: She's right you know.

Nepgear: I feel the same way. That's why she needs to stay here and replenish her strength.

Uzume: I;m just glad you get it, Gearsy. It's not gonna be cool if I'm sleepin' while all of you guys are fightin' the last boss.

Nepgear: Neptune, do you know how long it will take the Dark CPU to get here?

Neptune: Hmmm... Maybe, like, a Day? She's pretty far away, and since she's still getting used to her new body, she's tripping everywhere.

Nepgear: Then, Uzume, please focus on healing your body for one more day. I'll go and get everyone evacuated and to safety!

Magolor: We'll come along as well. C'mon you guys, lets go tell everyone about this.

KD/M: Right!

Kirby: Poyo!

Next, Nepgear, Kirby, and his buddies left as Uzume said.

Uzume: ...Big Nepsy. I have a big favor to ask.

Neptune: A favor?

Uzume: Yeah... But I need you to keep it a secret from Gearsy...

And so, Uzume tells Neptune about her big favor as the screen fades black.

(BGM Ended)

To Be Continued...

What was Uzume trying to tell Neptune about?

Where did those Masher's come from?

And what do you think will happen next?

Stay tuned and find out.
