(ALTERNATE VERSION OF METAL CRAB RISING) Waking up in a strange as a Metal Crab decide to have a long adventure, meeting friends, allies, enemies, humans, Nikke and even discover what this world has! ... Now what is with your unending hunger...?

Or: Making Goddess of Victory: Nikke (the Game) in of Goddess of Victory: Nikke Chaos slowly begins to take over as the Ark's future is being unveiled through a mere game.

What if I make a seemingly random story about a rapture who is actually a reader insert surviving on the wild, meeting other raptures, Nikke, and humans. Then messing with plot in more ways than one? It's a crazy idea, so I'm gonna write it. Oh, and this story contains various experimental concepts that are plotlines for this fanfiction, and is Action Packed on later chapters.... (I'm trying to tone them down .-.) (Thanks to SimpusMogus the Lolimancer for the (old) Title Art)

Nikolai is an 18-year-old man who accidentally got into an off-limits elevator that took him to a completely different world, and was saved by a girl known as a Nikke. I don't own NIKKE or its characters.

For as long as the Ark has existed, the relationship between man and machine has remained forever tattered. Nikkes, those who have pledged to forgo their humanity to fight for the surface, are refused even the most basic courtesy and dignity for their efforts. Many of them have become accustomed to the way most people perceive them, or at least that was until they met you. When a new commander arrives with a more unique approach to the Nikkes, how will their minds fare in the grand scheme of things? *I do not own Nikke, or any of the related characters. Nikke is created and owned by SHIFT UP Corporation. This story is intended for entertainment purposes only. I am not deriving any financial benefit from this story. All rights of Nikke belong to SHIFT UP Co.* *I claim no ownership of any images used in this story. All images belong to their respective owners*

I feel like Nikke is a slightly misunderstood game. If you can convince someone to look past the obvious, you can discover a great game to play anywhere. Mostly in private. So I want to honor that love from into my very first story here on Wattpad! I see very few stories about Nikke, so I will join them. Whether I am somehow popular from this or no one cares about it, I will do this to respect one of my favorite games. I would like to note before hand that this story is inspired by Attackingoreos and 0SRatz. These two have made some great stories about Nikke and if you just want to read more Nikke content, please check them out and support them! I will always love their stories, but I will try not to do exactly what they do. That is not how you become a better writer! I feel like if you are here, you know at least a little about Nikke, so I won't waste your time here. Let's just jump into the story!

What happens when the Commander wakes up and gains knowledge about future events? What will he change and how will this affect his life? *Goddess of Victory: Nikke belongs to Shift Up. This story is purely meant to entertain readers* *Any art shown is not made by me and belongs to their respective artists. Current cover is made by SimpusMogus, thank you SimpusMogus*

[August 30, 2025] Long awaited is humanity's salvation from the Raptures, and only one man has proven capable of making any progress. With the Counters by his side, follow the Commander as he battles the mighty threat that stole the surface from mankind. Let him remind them that humanity was born to inherit the stars.

.... A commander from another timeline is reincarnated as himself from the canon timeline. It becomes part of the plotline. His name was Leonardo Mastema, who earned the title of "Great Lion" for his commitment for his tasks and , and "Beowulf" for his ferocious combat ability in his Super Armor, has fallen due to the machinations of the Scarlet Queen (read: Rapture Queen of his timeline) and a series of unfortunate events that led to this fall. Though given a new chance in his life, he wonders what has changed? Will his past come after him? Hopefully not.
