The skies began to turn a shade of gray. The clouds gathered, filtering out the sun. Fog laid itself across the ocean surface, as the water began to grow with fury.
Belfast wept endlessly. Ticonderoga sat next to her rom her ship, comforting her in any way possible.
Ticonderoga: What a mess...
Belfast: Im..*hic*...sorry..*hic*...I can't...*hic*...stop...
Ticonderoga: No, no! It's alright... Just keep letting it out.
Belfast cried out even more. She was letting it all out. The only thing on her mind now, was the face of one of her fallen. York.
Ticonderoga: I promise we'll get through this
Belfast: I..can't..*hic*
After searching around, Cleveland had found a box of tissues she thought Belfast could use. Cleveland approaches the both of them and held the box of tissues out to Ticonderoga. Ticonderoga looks over at Cleveland, noticing the box.
Ticonderoga: Huh? Oh, thanks...
Ticonderoga takes the box from Cleveland and sets it down next to Belfast.
Cleveland stood there, gazing down at Belfast. Wishing she could do something...anything to help Belfast. But there was nothing.

Wales leans against the rails on the bow of her ship.
Looking down at the aggressive ocean waves, she sat in thought, about all the good times she'd spent with York. Ark walks up from behind Wales and leans next to her.
Ark: I don't believe it..that she's gone...
Wales: How can this happen...how did we not see the attack coming?
Ark: I don't know....but whoever did this...I'll kill them...I'll fucking kill them!!!
Ark shouted, clenching her fists in anger.
Wales: We must stay vigilant...whoever did this might still be out there....watching our every move
Ark: I don't care who it is..they will die for this...
Wales: York was a good friend.....we must avenge her...
—————
Ticonderoga: I...gotta go report everything...can you stay here with her?
Cleveland:...Yes...of course
Ticonderoga:...Thank you
Ticon said with a smile. She got up and walked away, headed back toward the fleet to give a damage and casualty report to Ford. Cleveland sat down with Belfast, who was still sobbing endlessly. Cleveland showed an expression of sorrow. She can imagine how she feels. After she and the Union sisters lost Northampton.
Not knowing what to say, all she can do is comfort Belfast in silence, and let the poor girl cry out all of her tears. Belfast cried more and more. She thought about all the fun things she did with York. And all the great times they had together.
Belfast: Why...why did this have to happen?!
Cleveland continued to comfort her in silence, as she looked out at the raging sea.

Ticonderoga: Sir!
Ticonderoga stood on the bridge of Ford's carrier, saluting him with a straight face.
Ford, staring at the windows with his hands and arms resting behind his back, turned to face her and saluted back.
Ticonderoga: Team reporting!
Ford: Alright
Ticonderoga: We have confirmed, two shipgirls critically injured, one.....K.I.A.
Ford was saddened to hear the terrible news
