Another World, Another Fight (An Azur Lane Story)

Chapter 1

Light.

First Person POV.

With a groan I awaken, damn it felt as if I've been beaten blood- 'Holy Shit I'm alive, guess he wasn't fuckin with me after all.'

I soon got up and looked to the side of the bed? To find my phone, odd normally I would be 'nude' so to speak. Guess this isn't the standard Isekai then hmm, 04:30:30 am I guess old habits die hard even if I'm now in a different world, the date read February 19, 2021, ah shit, now I can officially confirm that this isn't the standard Isekai, I half expected to be sent back decades but only a few years? And at the height of the pandemic too I hope that vaccines are mandatory. At least this will give me a chance to prevent a few travesties from occurring. I got my ass off of the bed, made it and walked to the bathroom.

Upon getting there and proceeding to strip I took notice of something 1. My counterpart in this world must be of high rank but not admiral, and 2. My body looked great, okay no six pack but I looked like a dude who is fit but not that fit, it's quite similar to my previous life, now I wasn't the best looking dude, appearing to be a mix between a semi stable teen and a weeb, so yeah I was kinda thicc in the gut, but during the occupation of the Philippines I got fit and fix most of my physical issues, due to my role within the rebel group I was a part of.

"Huh, so I still have them? I don't remember the others, hmm probably from my death." I mused to myself as I took notice of the many scars that are scattered throughout my body. One was over my right eye, one on my left cheek, another on the left side of my neck, another on the right side on the base, along with some more dotted throughout my body, in particular my torso, and arms mostly from bullets, it's a miracle that I have none on my legs.

Ignoring that for now, I took a nice warm shower, it felt good spiritually as I feel as if something sticking to me is slowly starting to come off. After a while I dried myself before getting changed into my uniform? A black short sleeved turtleneck along with a navy blue short sleeved button up both of which appear to be one or two sizes larger, at least it's comfortable, black slacks, black boots and fingerless gloves. I also tied my unusually long hair, odd normally it would have to be cut at a certain length, eh what the hell I always had long hair but this is definitely the longest it has been for me, I tied the back into a low ponytail, and the asymmetrical strands on each side of my head into unified ones to prevent it from screwing with my vision, I then proceeded to brew myself some tea, prepare some buttered toast and ate whilst reading my journal.

Now before the Author pounds my head in I'll answer the question you're all about to ask 'Why are you reading your own journal?' Well 1. It's my counterparts and 2. His and my memories are mixed up at the moment and I need the knowledge immediately rather than experience a migraine sorting through all of them. I just got another life and don't want to lose it to a headache.

SFX: Portal Opening then Mallet Slam.

"OI! DON'T BREAK THE FOURTH WALL DAMNIT!" Each word was spoken in sync with the slamming of the mallet upon my head before he snapped his fingers, making the mallet disappear, healing me, then closing the portal.

"Ouch." I muttered under my breath.

SFX: Knocking on door.

"Lt Cmdr. Alios, are you awake?" Came a feminine voice, my mind didn't register it straight away until it hit me, it was my superior; Vice Admiral. Maria H. Somerville.

3RD PERSON POV.

"Yes Ma'am, also the door isn't locked. Care to join me for a brew?" Aaron inquired, knowing that his superior didn't appreciate being treated like a damsel with actions such as waiting for him to open the door.
