Azur Lane: The Origins

The Dreamwalker & The Lady

Previously: Shinano reveals the truth behind Albrecht, the first general of Ironblood, also known as the "Sovereign of the Seas." As the two stayed longer at the guesthouse, they didn't expect to meet the very former ally they saw.. and now she's here..

Present:

Amagi:.... M- Ms. Warspite of Royal Navy?!

Shinano: (thought) what is she doing here?!

Warspite: Shinano of Sakura Empire.. (looks in disbelief).. And No, it's--!

Shinano: it's been a while since we met, Warspite. What a great suprise of fortune...

Warspite: This doesn't look like the present.. This..

Shinano: you're correct, unfortunately. You are here in the past.. where Azur Lane doesn't exist on this timeline yet.

Warspite: (points the sword at Shinano and Amagi) I will not believe those filthy words and lies that comes from the Crimson Axis like you are!!

Shinano, inside felt the guilt trip. She doesn't want war anymore. How ironic, she doesn't want war yet she still works for the Crimson Axis as one, true Sakura Empire member.

She remembers Mikasa's spoken words during their last meeting during the ceremonial ritual.

"The Sirens are not to be underestimated..They shouldn't be trusted Lady Shinano.. I knew for my heart, that I would never work for them even if it hurts my pride to be defeated."

"...."

"I don't understand why the others wanted to comply with those Sirens.. I promised "her" to take care of "her sister" but it seems that I failed to do so.."

Shinano:......

Warspite: why not speak for yourself Shinano? You and the Sakura Empire caused this mess to happen! You were all supposed to destroy the sirens! Not join them!! (angry with remorseful expression on her face)

Amagi widened her eyes in shock. What did she mean..? The Sakura Empire... joined the enemy..?

Amagi: Lady Shinano, what's the meaning of this?!

However, Shinano ignored her question as she continued..

Shinano: Warspite, I never wanted a war.. Not even Mikasa wanted to fight the Azur Lane as well.

Warspite: You already betrayed the alliance.. How to tell if you're lying infront of me?

Shinano: Warspite-

Warspite: Speak, do not, I am tired of hearing enough lies. First with the Ironblood backstabbing our faction to put us all in danger.

The blonde girl attacked Shinano with her speed and clanks the sword over hers. Shinano tried her best to avoid fighting at all costs but it was too late.

She clanked her katana as well to meet Warspite's sword, leaving Amagi watched with her eyes becoming dull. It was too much to take in, time travel, the future, the faction she cherished...

they will change...

The two fought hard and it led them to the sea as the guesthouse was not really far at the seaside.

Warspite stepped in with her riggings appearing the moment she stepped in the battlefield. Shinano as well stepped in, her aircraft riggings appeared beside as they fought.

Warspite blasts Shinano using one of her riggings to destroy her planes that were coming in towards her.

The blast caused the dreamwalker to almost stumble at her aircraft deck. Shinano fires out her planes towards Warspite and blasts her to weaken her armour and destroy completely.
