"Ugh... I'm getting tired of this..." I groaned as I woke up once again. Looking around my surroundings I realized I was not in the room I found myself in but this time in a pod, like those in the movies where they cryo-freeze someone.

As I was looking around a hissing sound rang in my ears as the capsule opened, stepping out of the capsule and onto the cold white floor, scanning the area I was amazed at how futuristic it looked.

Technology I had never seen before and floating transparent screens displaying a sequence of code I didn't understand, for some reason the machines gave me a sense of familiarity. However, my amazement was soon cut short as my memories from before getting knocked out flooded my mind.

I had "escaped" containment and was controlled by an unknown force to kill someone and not only that the person was wearing an Eagle Union armband.

Panicking I looked around the room I was in, finding a handheld mirror on the table I quickly picked it up and inspected my features.

Pale paper white skin slightly glowing blue eyes with white hair...

These features match that of a Siren, specifically,

an Arbiter.

I had originally thought I was reincarnated as a machine in some random world but it quickly dawned on me that I had reincarnated into the world of Azur Lane. The worst part is that I became a Siren. I did not read much on the lore but from the bits and pieces I know of the Sirens or Anti-X, they are a product of humanity but beyond that, I do not know much.

But thinking back on when I lost consciousness the scientist I saw looked oddly familiar I can't quite place it but he gives me a sense of déjà vu, putting the mirror back I took a while to process this information until I heard footsteps coming my way.

Panicking I quickly hid behind the small space of the cryo-pod, peaking out a bit I saw the metal door to the room slide open and the same scientist from before still wearing the white lab coat with a black sweater underneath, white pants, and black dress shoes.

Besides him was another scientist but I felt a chill run down my spine as I looked at him. They have black hair and light blue colored eyes, wearing a lab coat with a white shirt and tie, I don't know why but every time I look at him I feel an emotion I have not felt before was it nostalgia or was it, terror?

I'm not sure it could also be an odd sense of familiarity.

As I was staring at both of them the same screen from before appeared before me giving me both of their general information.

Aoste... That name gives me déjà vu but I can't remember who he is, but he is the head of the Anti-X, I soon turned my attention to the scientist's profile next to him.

-

Name: █████████ [Assistant]

Occupation: Assistant, █████████

Age: ██

An assistant huh, and his name is [Assistant]? It must be his nickname, but for some reason, I cannot see most of it since it is redacted, then again I am a machine now, and machines can be controlled by outside forces limiting any information.
