the room was dark and grey It had a musty smell like it was left unused and damp with a metallic scent in the air, The ceiling had water stains, and the floor was made of concrete
*what the fuck am I in the gulag?*
Piorun slowly gets up from the thin cot and looks around the room to see a mirror
*That got to be a two-way mirror*
She stood up and knocked on the glass and it sounded hollow like when you knock on a window pane in a house She placed her fingernails up to it and noted they touched directly indicating the reflective coating was on this side
*yep two-way mirror*
She heard a lock on the door turn and she turned to face it to see Belfast with biscuit
"Belfast, biscuit"
Belfast smiled as she stood there while Biscuit had a troubled look
"Ok what is it"
Biscuit: Well uh when you passed out
She started to stutter so much that Belfast had to take over
Belfast: We took you to the medical facilities on base and found some oddities
"such as?"
Biscuit just sets a 3inch folder on the table
"oh"
Biscuit: Yeah it was a lot
she said as she rubbed the back of her neck
"I can understand that but I was sure you already knew about the siren stuff, Belfast"
Belfast: Well it was more the fact that your cubes are still evolving with an unknown source
"Source?"
Biscuit: its receives data packets via some sort of radio transmission that we can find its origin from
"huh i could weaponise this"
Belfast: How so?
"Well if i just make a large dump of useless data and send it over the same radio frequencies i could just make it useless to the sirens forcing them to use an alternate method or we could listen in on them and find out what they are going for"
belfast: Another on the fly plan?
"You know me so well"
2 hours later in some sort of lab with others joining
"ok, so we going with listening in on them and enterprise You said something about finding a weird plan in the stuff I stole from Ironblood?"
Enty: Yeah but it can wait until after this, This is more intriguing anyway
piorun started to put together some sort of terminal
"hey essex can you toss me that flat head?"
Essex: yeah sure
as essex throws it went wide and piorun nabbed it out of the air with one of her tentacles and turned back around to the terminal with out thinking but caused quite a stir on the room
essex: what the fuck
"hmm?"
enty: i know belfast said you got a siren cube but i wasnt expecting a transformation like this
"Oh, well at least i didn't completely lose it when i got it, i found it more unnerving than anything"
Belfast: well thats good to know but please try to keep it to a minimum
"i understand just didnt want to go run and grab it also"
she tightens it one last time
"we should be reciveing"
as the group looks at the screen a large amount of text rolls across the screen in a script none of them but piorun knew
"huh got to add a translator its in siren"
piorun tapped on the keyboard and the text changed to plain old English with some of it saying that the iron blood is moving troops towards northern parliament
"well uh who wants vodka?"
this caused some confusion from the others
enty: how did vodka come up?
"iron blood is doing something towards northern parliament
enty: ill notify sovetskaya rossiya
"well even if they're our allies im not going to be quite happy"
Belfast: how so?
"history from my world i dont want to explain it"
Essex: i forget sometimes your not from here
"nither is any of the kansen you just don't remember it"
Enty: i got a question when we found you on the ground the Wings, New Jersey mentioned was missing
"its because they act like rigging"
suddenly a set of black wings appeared on her back and spread out from her back making her usually unopposing stature very frighting
"see"
Essex: i i i see can you not scare me like that?
her winds fold back onto her back and disapeate
"how is it scary?"
a loud clang is heard and Shinano is seen tumbling out of a basket looking dazed
Shinano: it's you
"huh?
Shinano: the ship i saw in my dream it was wreathed in flame and lightning your the end of the sirens
"yeah right what could i do to destroy them"
Essex: didnt you kill like an entire base worth several times?
"that isnt the same as the entire siren empire"
enty: but its a start we normally have issues taking one out with a whole fleet and when we do get reports of when one suddenly goes missing or is torn to shreads
"it still isnt that much"
The entire group just stares at her dumbstruck for a moment
Shinano: powerful and humble
enty: and highly in denial
"guys im not that powerful im more lucky than anything"
essex: no fighting bismarck and living is lucky esscaping a siren base by brute force is power
"eh"
enty: don't eh us you are powerful you just need to admit it
a small amount of electricity arced through her hair as she gets more irritated
"can you just drop it i just want this stupid war over so i can finaly retire i have been service for over 21 years 10 of those in war so sorry if i dont want to be called powerful i want to just retire peacefully and to peacefully pass away!"
as she said this more electrity and some flame erupted from her and swirled around her she quickly reeled in her temper
"alright i just want to be done i seen war longer than most of you been alive"
Belfast: oh
essex: sorry
enty: i didnt mean to bring you to a rage
"well you did'
