"And so we continue our epic story. Neptune here, the little cute one, here to divulge my precious words of wisdoms to your adoring brains. After quite a long time Terra's sleeping power has finally wakey-up...no idea why it took so long, maybe the right story flag hadn't been raised. Anyway let's get it on"


Terra had changed and now wore a full metallic body suit that covered his torso, arms and legs, metallic connected owl like wings extended from his back. They weren't attached to his body but a bit away. The suit looked a little more like armour plating especially on his arms and legs. The sleeves on his arms looking like arm guards, his shoulder to his wrist. And the leggings on his suit were more like leg guards.


Terra's right arm plating (And right shoulder) was emerald green and his left arm (and left shoulder) was lilac. His right leg plating was White and his right leg black. And lastly his torso was platinum silver looking sort or like an armoured vest or thick t-shirt leaving his sides uncovered.

Additionally Terra also wore silver fingerless gloves and silver shoes with dark toned laces. And his hair, now thicker, was now nearly all stuck up and bright platinum silver with only two thick hairs drooping down on his fore-head. Terra slowly dropped down to the ground, and opened his silver eyes with white CPU pupils.


The shock of his transformation hit those who weren't away of his form "Ter...Terra is a...CPU!?" exclaimed Uzume who actually went human from shock "He's a freaking CPU!?"

"A male CPU?" asked the Big Neptune "My that's a new spin...or is it? Wait didn't Crostie something about that in my world once...oh never mind"

"This is the power Terra was unable to awaken" said Umio "I can see why he chose not to say it"

"Yeah...I'm seeing it" said Uzume "But I'm not believing it. Gearsy you knew about this power right?"

"I did" said Nepgear smiling and nodded "Terra is the first male CPU, he's called Silver Light. He's a CPU of a forgotten land but these days he's more a CPU candidate"


Arfoire looked upon him "You're a...CPU!? This is impossible...and yet I can feel the power of divinity ebbing from your body"

"What's you're seeing is no lie" said Terra "And is because I'm a CPU...that I know you stole CPU power, power not rightfully yours"

"Go on then...explain"

"Your power...comes from the CPU of Tari an ancient land that was destroyed by the very goddess who gave it life. She cared not for faith and eventually rained down her power on the world, which rebelled and fought back...leaving the land to suffer"

"How...do you know this?"

"Because...I was the CPU to replace her! I was born to rule Tari instead of her!"



His news came out as another shock, particularly to Uzume as he spoke "when I was born...I didn't come out right, the land I was born in was already beyond saving. Though there was nothing I could do...I can't help but feel regret there was nothing I could do to save my home"

"Terra" Uzume said

"But...I can't change that, I can't do anything now...but I can  save this world!" he forged Neptune's Katana blade in hand "I couldn't save Tari...but I can the Zero Dimension! So I'll be dammed if I let you destroy it!"
