Liang (from Zhejiang and Enterprise) is transported to a new world but the minute she arrives she's attacked both by sharks and by...Azur Lane! What's going on? Even more confusing, she's not in her prior body and she's saved by Iron Blood! How will...
Opening my eyes, I see a bomb falling straight for me but right before it can strike, a shadow encompasses me. There is a loud explosion and a lot of smoke but when it clears I see what looks like a dragon towering above me. Unable to comprehend the sight, I merely stare as it seemingly lashes out, knocking everything out of the sky. I'm not certain but it looks like it is protecting me. Whatever its reason, at the very least...I'm safe.
Loses Consciousness.

I awaken in an empty room. Looking around, I quickly take note of the fact that other than the bed I am on and a single chair, there's nothing else here. As I continue looking around, my eyes finally settle on a white door. If I wasn't looking closely, I'd have completely missed it against the white walls of the room but now that I've seen it, it becomes blatant.
Grrrrrr
My stomach's growl alerts my mind to the fact that I am somewhat hungry. Standing, I'm surprised to feel my feet struggle to support my weight but with the assistance of my hands, I manage to make my way to the door without collapsing.
Opening it, I find myself at the end of an empty hallway. As I slowly make my way down the hallway, hoping to find my way out of this place and get some food, voices reach my ears. I don't recognise most of them but one stands out. It's Eugen. Feeling a sudden spike in energy upon hearing her, I make my way towards her voice but just as I arrive at the door, I hear my name and stop.
????: I'm still shocked at that thing!
????: Yeah! Like sure it destroyed all the enemy planes but it was just as merciless against our forces.
Eugen: What do you expect? For better or for worst it was protecting August when we failed to do so.
????: But still! It nearly killed me!
????: I'm curious as to why it didn't attack Eugen though. In fact, if I'm not mistaken, didn't it only withdraw after you assured it that you'd keep her safe?
Eugen: Just finish eating and leave that subject for now. We still don't know anything about her but that was definitely her ship and it was certainly using SIREN technology.
????: Wait, do you think that she's with the SIRENS?
Eugen: It's a possibility since none of our production facilities knows anything about her or her armaments but it is undeniable that the thing you're referring to was her ship. How it was able to react on its own and fight even though she'd fallen unconscious, however, is a mystery to us. What's more, whether we want to admit it or not, no other nation within our world possesses that level of SIREN technology besides ourselves, the Northern Parliament and the Sakura Empire and since she had our colours and her weaponry matched our technology the most, it is safe to say she's at the very least an Iron Blood ship.
????: But we can't confirm since we don't actually know anything about her, yes?
Bismark: Precisely.
????: Lady Bismark! How long have you been there?
Bismark: Long enough to overhear what you were talking about. I suggest you keep this information to yourselves for now. We can't risk any information about her getting out. If she is a SIREN or one of their creations, she's lost memories of being such. As far as she knows, she didn't exist before waking up in the ocean.
????: Isn't that just what she said though? How can we trust-
Bismark: Ask de Grobe. She's taken a liking to her shortly after we brought her back and was the one who informed us that she's indeed lost. Whilst taking care of her, apparently she partially woke up and-
My hand slips and catches the door, pushing it open. The room falls silent as my frame comes into view. There's an awkward tension in the air as they realize the likelihood that I've overheard their entire conversation but Eugen's the first to recover.
Eugen: It's good to see you're finally awake.
She stands and makes her way over to me, ignoring the whispers coming from the other girls in the room. As she does, I take the time to look around and realize that this is some sort of eating area but it doesn't seem large enough to be the cafe or even a mess hall.
Eugen: How are you feeling?
Before I can answer, my stomach makes its desires known and she smiles. Rather than addressing the matter at hand, however, she walks back into the room and pulls something out of a nearby refrigerator. I keep my eyes trained on her as she walks over to her prior table and whispers something to her group before rejoining me at the door.
Eugen: Ready?
Me: To go where?
She closes the door behind her and takes my hand, leading me into a separate room. This one is fairly close by and looks more like a private eating area but I don't mention anything about it, instead, taking the seat she offers to me. With us now alone, I ask the one question that's on my mind.
Me: Does everyone hate me or something?
Eugen: Hmm? Not exactly. You simply showed up at an awkward time is all. Now, open up.
