in a rush, piorun lifts an arm up to block the sword quickly grabbing the bayonet from the shotgun she starts to pair the strikes
"well hi zuikaku"
zuikaku: ...
"so the silent type i can work with that"
suddenly piorun doges a strike and kicks her in the back of the knees forcing her to fall her sword skitters across the water
zuikaku: you fight without honour
"tell me"
suddenly the area was wreathed in flames showing images of hood blowing up and sinking, men on the beach being mowed down by machine gun fire, aircraft diving down on ships and releasing bombs and the ship exploding showing sailors being thrown from the blast
"When you Stand amongst the ashes of a trillion dead souls and ask if honor matters"
suddenly zuikaku lunges for her katana but was quickly stopped by piorun shooting next to her hand
"the silence will be your answer"
after saying this piorun quickly incapacitates her and moves on toward the city looking around she starts to seance metal nearby
*This doesn't help its surrounding me*
after thinking that she starts to seance a larger amount that was moving
*bingo*
rushing towards it she sees some iron blood ships and hides she starts to listen in
???: why are we hear again?
???: as I said hipper we are to support the Sakura empire
hipper: I know that z23 I was wondering why are we trying to rescue the scam cat?
z23: as they said Akashi is their only repair ship.
hipper: fine it's just they need to work on her pric. why do I hear planes?
piorun also noticed this but didn't think about it over the sound of battle that appeared soon after she entered the ruins she could hear the sound of hundreds of aircraft engines and soon after the report of cannon fire
*why do I hear spitfires we didn't bring any royal navy carriers?*
soon aircraft blanketed the sky they were of all makes and models allies and axis soon siren jets came in to deal with the unknown aircraft but were quickly overwhelmed by the sheer number of them soon the reports of cannon fire came through but this sounded distant soon after shell impacts could be heard turning on her radio she began to hear morse code
*the hell we had radio silence orders?*
quickly decoding the messages she saw that they were firing cords for artillery she recognized and knew that they shouldn't be here
*wait is she here?*
looking back at the group of iron blood she sees z23 and Hipper along with a few others deciding to help their allies and they withdraw from the area soon after we see Sheffield's head pop out from a nearby building quickly waving them over they see him and run over along with a green cat
"what's with the furball?"
Edinburgh: she deserted the sakura empire
"ok then follow me"
as they quickly escaped the ruins piorun grabs her submachine gun and scan the sky for threats seeing a siren plane begin to track them she begins to fire the gun *burrrrrrrt* it shreds the siren aircraft before it could respond to the shoots
"damn I turned that into swiss cheese"
akshi: I have never seen such an effect from a firearm
"yea I haven't either"
Edinburgh: you mean that's the first time using that weapon?
"in this form at least"
exiting the ruins she sees pure devastation siren vessels were annihilated the enemy was nowhere to be found and planes she didn't recognize patrolled the area soon the planes she didn't recognize all started to leave quickly she hears Belfast radio them
belfast: This is Azur Lane are you friendly?
unknown a plane responds in Morse: yes
belfast: can you respond with a radio?
no
belfast: do you have a designation?
yes sb-62
belfast: 62?
new jersey
the plane starts to leave
belfast: where are you going?
follow
belfast: can we trust you?
I believe so unless you become hostile
belfast: fair enough
as they follow the palne she sees the others head off at full speed soon they approach a single battle ship with 4 turrets
*the hell is with all the guns?*
suddenly they hear a familiar voice
???: Welcome to my fleet
we see the girl with the metal arm
enty: who are you
???: we have met before and I do believe it is time for an introduction the names new jersey
piorun walks up to new jersey
"of the iowa class?"
NJM: yes
"how and why are you here?"
NJM: no clue portal hit me
enty: how?
NJM: not sure i just was fighting purifier and I was Cornerd got hit with it
enty: so you're a meta?
NJM: I guess but I mean no harm to you
enty begins to speak but seemed unsure of her own offer
enty: so you want to join Azur Lane?
NJM: I don't see why not
at this, the 21 ships now sail back to Azur Lane but piorun was inside her ship looking for damage as she had forgotten to check for it over the last few missions look over her hull it shows signs of use but nothing that would put her out of commission looking at the engine room she sees nothing out of the ordinary as she walks past a small crack formed in one of her boilers not enough to start showing itself but enough to weaken it if she overextends herself.
