a ship of lightning

Chapter 33

after seeing the truck leave piorun goes back to running the shop but the blond woman returns

"why hello there again, what can I do for you?"

???: yes I was wondering if you had a meeting with a major Weber?

"well I did but it was cancelled"

???: I see did he cancel it?

"no, a girl gave orders to the guard escorting me to let me leave"

???: I see, do you know why this meeting was taking place?

"I believe it was about a ship girl sinking random convoys?"

???: really but you have nothing to indicate your one other than the eyes and hair which can be natural as you are fairly pale

"I'm not sure what you mean?"

???: I'm just referring to the fact that your appearance is a little off

"the red eyes and white hair?"

???: yes

"the hair is actually blond just lighting"

???: and the eyes?

"heh, the doctors were confused as well until they looked closer"

???: being?

"no pigment, so it's just the blood vessels reflecting light"

???: I see

"now are you going to buy something or?"

???: oh yes I was wondering if you had any parts for an old motorbike

"maybe, what brand and model?"

???: a BMW R24

"I belive so, what do you need?"

???: spark plug and fuel lines

"ill check storage give me a moment"

we see piorun enter the basement and look around the shelves till she found them grabbing a couple of feet of line and a single spark plug and testing it by running energy through it she takes the items back up and places them on the counter

"that will be 3 marks"

???: thank you, it seems you have everything here

"i wish, but i do have a fair amount of stock"

we see the lady pay and leave

piorun glanced at the clock a noted the time was close to closing time

*I should get going*

closing up shop and exiting she decided to head back to the naval base as it was dark, as she approaches she hears several voices in the distance keeping her guard up she approaches the fence and taps it with the back of her hand, she feels a slight tingle telling her this fence was either rigged to set off an alarm or it was a electrified but judging by the voltage it was more likely the alarm, looking around she grabs a small shovel and starts to dig into the dirt under the fence after making a large enough hole, she craws under and starts to sneak around the base reading where electrical lines where to locate cameras and avoid them she made a fairly good distance, she was nearby a storage building nearing the corner she can hear the clank of a tool on metal and swearing

???: you mother fucking whore

???: damn, it's just a machine

???: *grumbles

glancing around the corner she sees the woman now clad in black and with a matching captains hat, another person approaches the woman and places her hand on her shoulder, she had white hair and blue eyes and had a matching captains hat but in white

???: bismarck

bismarck: yes tirpitz?

Tirpitz: calm down, you have been working on this bike for 4 months now

Bismarck: sorry it's just I'm so close and yet nothing

*so this is the Bismarck class?*

she continues to watch the sisters work on the bike but after a few minutes she leaves and heads toward the main office building that at the moment had no lights on

*good, now what secrets are you hiding?*

poping the lock and entering she is greeted by a wide hallway with doors on each side one of them labeled server room

*jackpot*

she rushes towards the door and enters looking around she sees several racks of servers with a mainframe attached turning on the monitor and looking at the screen she sees that it was left logged in

*now this is just some lousy security*

she starts to poke around different files seeing several designs that would be quite devastating on the field then she notices a file, one labeled completed projects opening it she sees very few documents inside it but one piqued her interest a file simply labeled Black hole

*now what is this?*

opening the file she begins to read it

file:

the black hole project was an attempt to create and contain a blackhole to use as a weapon, the shell which would contain the black hole when it collided with the target will cause the shell to break and allow the black hole to for a short time pull enemies towards and crush them before destabilizing and vanishing

after reading it she glances at the rest of the black hole project and she starts to see the results of hundreds of test

*this is going to be much harder than I originally thought*

she finally reaches a page with who received the weapon

*bismarck*

suddenly she hears a sound outside the server room and quickly she turned off the monitor and hid

pokeing her head up she sees who entered the room it was the blue beret girl she plugged a USB in and signed out and left

*sigh

*that was close*

getting back up she starts to open back up the computer this time she is faced with a login prompt

*lets just*

she places her hand on the computer and forcefully unlocks it she begins to look at recent orders for the Ironblood, she begins to look at orders not carried out yet and begins to copy them to an empty flash drive with some completed iron blood projects, quickly removing the drive and exiting the building we see her make her way back the hole she made, suddenly she hears a roar of an engine and approaching quickly glancing back she sees a headlight in the distance picking up the pace and turning a corner to let the bike pass she sees an old BMW R24 roar by

*even if she is an enemy, it's good to see something work out for her*

continuing on her way she craws back under and fills it back in leaving as little as a trace as possible quickly making her way home she places the drive into an envelope and placed it into her portal storage
