Sea of Disparity

Ch-4 First Steps

A/N: I wanted to clear some things. Whenever anything weird happens or the ship girls just easily believe or forget or doesn't check something, it's because of Y/n.

If you have read the bio, you should know that she can manipulate fate and alter the future to her liking. So whenever something happens which normally shouldn't or when the ship girls don't feel suspicious at all, it's because Y/n altered destiny.

No one's POV

New ship's had joined the Azur Lane. Two specific ships from Dragon Empery, Ning Hai and Ping Hai.

Hydra, new newly joined "ship", looked at them with a smile. "Oho ? New girls eh ? Interesting...."

"Hey Hydra!" She turned and saw Javelin smiling at her.

She handed her a little snack. One that the two new ships sisters made. It looked like a panda for some reason. "What is this ?"

"It's a snack Ping Hai and Ning Hai made. Come on, try it!" She encouraged.

Hydra looked at Javelin and then back at the food item before biting into it. She cheed and swallowed it and took another bite and began to devour it swiftly.

They say at the beach while eating the food. Laffey was lying down on Hydra's lap and sleeping. Hydra couldn't help but smirk seeing the cutie under her. She wanted to devour her right now, but refrained from doing so. After all, she had already chosen her first target.

Looking at Unicorn, who didn't know how to eat the food, she smirked. 'My first target is soooo cute~! So innocent! I love it! I can't wait to see a look of desperation and hopelessness replace her delicate little face~'

Javelin showed her how to eat the snack and Unicorn followed her steps. Illustrious then took a blanket and wiped her face clean of the crumbs.

Seeing this, Hydra smirked. She looked Illustrious all over. 'What an amazingly beautiful woman. Mistress would love her. I should take her back as a gift! She'll be so proud of me!!'

Hydra beamed happily at the thought of being rewarded and complimented by her queen. Javelin saw this and smiled. Of course, she wasn't aware of why Hydra was so happy. She just assumed she was having a good time here.

Slowly, time passed and the sirens were making their move. Several meeting were held to discuss the matter in hand. Many high class siren has begun taking action. The ship girls assume they wish to take advantage of the conflict between Azur Lane and Red Axis to attack. The discussion almost made Hydra lose her composure.

'Really ? How petty you you think we are ? Mistress has made it clear that she will only launch her attack after the situation between Azur Lane and Red Axis has been solved. Until then, only tiny attacks, warnings and spies will be deployed, along with the capture of ship girls.'

Meanwhile in Sakura Empire

Akagi, Kaga, Zuikaku, Shoukaku, Ayanami returned home. Prinz Eugen and Z23 tagged along with them.

Sakura Empires intentions are clear. Use the mental cubes to control the sirens to help their nation progress while simultaneously preventing siren attacks on them.

Takao was training and honing her sword skills. She stopped when she heard someone clapping. Looking back, she was met with Zuikaku who was smiling at her.

"Training huh, Takao ?"

"You have returned, Zuikaku." Takao sheathed her blade and walked over to her.

Meanwhile, it seems that Sheffield and Edinburgh were sent undercover to investigate in Sakura Empire.

"Argh! Why was I sent on this undercover mission! I'm so not cut out for this job!" Edinburgh whined but she was silenced by the serious Sheffield.
