Together...Until The End

Chapter One

District Columbia POV

I was woken up by the sound of alarms detecting KANSEN aboard...wait...how am I alive? I bolted upright to see myself in the mirror. Scars were present across my face from my battles and my clothing was intact instead of being shredded like Enterprise did. Fighting in the sea with no clothes on is not fun let me tell you.

The Gen-2 KANSEN possessed no genitalia meaning we couldn't reproduce like humans could. The Gen-1s however could since they were created by the collective will of humanity and the Bikini Atoll tests. I walked out of my quarters which was positioned next to the bridge and turned to see my security cams.

Are those Gen-1 KANSEN? I recognize those faces and outfits anywhere. Cleveland, Denver, Laffey, and Javelin. Radar confirmed Arizona was sitting a bit aways pointing her guns at me. Also, my bridge is fully armored meaning I have to exit onto the wings to get outside.

???: "A male?"

I turned to see Denver had entered my bridge.

???: "Denver, what's are you talking...oh."

Me: "Surprised?"

Cleveland: "Since when are male ships a thing?"

Me: "The second generation of KANSEN."

Denver: "What are you talking about? Who are you?"

Me: "USS District of Columbia."

Javelin: "An Eagle Union ship?"

Me: "Can any of you tell me what USS stands for?"

Me: "Thought so, it's stands for United States Ship. I served the United States of America before it's collapse like all other governments. What nation do you serve?"

Cleveland: "No nations have collapsed. Are you right in the head?"

Me: "The last thing I ever saw before waking up here was the glowing yellow eyes of my closest friend as she shot me through the heart with her bow. Do you think I'm right in the head?"

Cleveland: "Who shot you?"

Me: "To avoid confusion she is my worlds USS Enterprise. But I will refer to her as Ash to avoid confusion."

Denver: "How do you know you came from another world?"

Me: "Because in my time...you all were either sunk or scrapped."

All: "What?!"

Me: "Cleveland and Denver had successors Laffey was given a memorial for her successor in the Allen M Sumner class and I don't remember Javelin's fate other than she was destroyed in some form."

Cleveland: "Will you follow us to our base?"

Me: "What is it's name location and the current date?"

Denver: "Pearl Harbor, Hawaii December 6, 1941. Why?"

Me: "If history repeats itself then the base will be bombed by aircraft from Akagi and Kaga tomorrow."

Laffey: "That's what happened in your world?"

Me: "Unfortunately..."

I went to say more but my chest started to hurt like it was being crushed. I collapsed and my vision went black before I could do anything.

Time Skip

When I woke up I was lying on a bed in what I assume is an infirmary or hospital looking at the calendar visible in my vision I could see it was still the 6th. I sat up but grabbed chest in pain...guess that's one wound that will never heal.
