A Drones Ocean Adventure

1 {Arrival}

A's POV

The sound of an engine pulls me from my slumber, I'm momentarily confused cause I don't remember an engine in the spire. But that is shut out of my mind quickly as I realize that I feel cold and the metal floor I'm on, my eyes shoot open to look at myself and what I see is confusing, before I looked like I could be N's twin or something, now I was human, but I still had metal lower arms.

After calming down from my initial shock I look around and realize I'm in a ship's engine room, exploring the vessel I manage to get to the deck and discover I'm on a modified Fishing Trawler. Continuing onwards, I find the captains quarters. At this point, I'm incredibly concerned cause I haven't seen a single soul, and that's weird considering there would be at least 25 people on this vessel, on a desk in the center of the room, I see a letter addressed to me, walking over and opening it i find.

???: Dearest Alter, I hope you haven't broken your remaining fuses yet. After all, with the cube you've obtained, this vessel will follow each and every command you utter. One might even say you are its will made manifest. You have been transported into an alternate earth that is under attack by an alien threat. They have been labeled as Sirens. When a few were slain, they dropped things called wisdom Cubes. When those are merged with a ship, it grants them a human form, and humanity has called them Kansen. The silver cube you interacted with is one of them, one of a kind, but still a wisdom cube.

You may have noticed this vessel is slightly different, which is primarily due to the automatic machine gun turrets placed around the vessel for self-defense. You are the will of the ARS Anomaly. Your silver cube will allow you to scan other ships and replicate their forms and riggings. It will also let you obtain other ships depending on your desires.

Sincerely, your Alter,

Following that read, I go back outside to recollect my thoughts. When I exit, it finally clicks that I'm floating in the middle of nowhere on an ocean! And with that realization, I have a moment of "oh no, I'm going to die," I was a robot after all. After another moment of chill out time, I go to check the weapons and yup, machine gun turrets, I'm not sure what kind of machine gun, but eh... I'm sure that'll figure itself out. But putting that aside, I start to test how I'd control this vessel. Initially, I had no luck, but eventually, when just asking for the ship to just go forward, it lurches forward, almost knocking me over. Happy that I managed to get going I realize that despite not having a metal head, I still have the old hud with some new additions such as a radar, a sonar, a radio, a phantom ship to see major damage, and an option to check an inventory. Checking said inventory, I find 5 blue wisdom cubes (not that I know what their used for) and a paper slip that'll allow me to obtain a secondary ship form, but doesn't say what kind.

Time skip (4 hours)

The past few hours have continued sailing without any major complications until my radio starts beeping. Checking the radio, I hear a female voice call out.

??: Does anybody... read me? Please... I'm under attack by Sirens at ### ## ###. Please...

At my current speed, it'll still take 45 minutes to get to her location. But someone is in trouble, so off I go. On my way, I spot some black patrol boats with red lines. Initially, I checked my radio to check for incoming calls. When I have none, I check radar to confirm the fact that those are siren vessels.

Not completely certain about my machine guns, I let loose the disassembly drone instincts, and despite not having the positions for them, I unfurl my wings and reveal my tail. I jump off my ship and turn my right arm into a rocket launcher, only to fire at the first patrol boat. The rocket hits and is soon followed by an explosion as what remains of the boat sinks. The other 3 patrol boats start aiming their armaments at me.

A: This is where the fun begins!

I dive at the second boat, changing my left arm into a laser rifle and cutting it in half, somehow LAND on the water, and proceed to fire rockets at the other two boats. Destroying the boats instantly, I return to normal, even changing my arms back, but the wings come to a rest position, and the tail continues flailing about. I then return aboard the anomaly.

Time Skip (45 minutes)

As I reached the site of the SOS, I saw a single battleship. It was broken in so many locations, such as a major hole in the starboard side. I was impressed it even managed to stay afloat. My databanks started going overtime trying to figure out which ship it was, but then I remembered the paper slip. Perhaps it could grant me something for this. As I go to the depths of my ship to obtain that slip, the databank inform me that the battleship was the HMS Prince of Wales, why this ship was out here on its own, I had no idea. Once I grabbed the slip, I ran back up and looked for anyway to use the paper.

After about 4 minutes of not being able to figure it out, I ended up ripping it, and it ignited with a faint blue fire. And then the Fishing Trawler beneath my feet started glowing and growing in size, I took flight to avoid it. After a little while, it stopped glowing, and it revealed a large sized repair ship. It was plenty big enough to start repairs on the Prince of Wales, and so, I ordered it to start. One of the cranes suddenly shifted to grab something and pulled out a female figure, unconscious, probably due to shrapnel. But I wasn't about to risk it, so I brought her down and rushed her towards the medical room, wherever it may lay.
